Chapter 164
No one knew who to trust, and suspicious glances were exchanged all around. Suzanne couldn’t take it anymore. It was hard to believe that someone so shameless could exist in this world.
With no proof to support her, Suzanne felt stuck. To make things worse, Sally started crying as if she was the one who got hurt the
most.
Just when Suzanne was figuring out what to do about Sally, she heard footsteps coming closer from behind.
“Nate…” Sally sobbed.
All eyes turned to the door as Nathan walked in. Dressed in a sharp black suit that made him look both commanding and handsome, Nathan exuded a cool and collected presence. In his hands, he held a small bunch of zinnias.
Nathan had just finished his work at the military base, but he d back without thinking twice. He was worried that Suzanne n getting a hard tfrom Sally and the others, and he wanted to sure she was okay.

With a kind expression, Nathan walked over to Suzanne and handed her the flowers. For a moment, Suzanne was lost in a happy daze. When she finally looked at him, her expression was full of delight.
Suzanne felt her heart racing, a warm flush spreading across her cheeks as a delightful feeling bubbled up inside her.
She glanced at the flowers in her hand and asked with a gentle smile,” Where did you find these beautiful flowers?”
“I picked them from a little hill,” Nathan replied in a soft tone.
Suzanne’s face lit up with a sweet warmth as she admired the zinnias in her hands. “Where were you yesterday?”
“I was at the military base,” Nathan replied.
Suzanne kept her gaze on the flowers, saying, “Oh.”
Nathan held Suzanne’s hand and told everyone, “Mom, Dad, we’re heading to our room.”
Gary readily agreed, “Sure, go get srest.”
As long as they could keep Sally and Suzanne from arguing, things would stay calm at home.
Florence grinned and said, “Nate, when you’re surprising your wife with flowers, try roses, lilies, or baby’s breath instead of zinnias.”
Nathan smiled back. “Suzy loves zinnias.”
Nathan’s loving words and sweet address to Suzanne revealed his deep affection for her. Suzanne blushed and shyly looked down in
response.
With a mischievous grin, Taylor leaned in close to Wendy and whispered teasingly. He poked fun at Nathan for boldly offering Suzanne with the zinnias he had picked, suggesting it was a tad tacky.
Wendy couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Taylor. “You know nothing. Nathan takes the tto pick fresh flowers for his wife after work. It shows he’s thoughtful.
“And you? The flowers you got for our anniversary were arranged by your secretary.”

Taylor sheepishly dropped his head in response.
Meanwhile, Nathan led Suzanne upstairs while texting on his phone with his free hand.
Sally felt completely ignored as if she were invisible. She called out, ” Nate… Nate…”
She wished to follow them, but Florence promptly restrained her.” Sally, hearout. Nate has his thoughts. You can’t force things to happen!”
Suddenly, all their phones beeped simultaneously. In perfect unison, they reached for their phones and glimpsed a message from Nathan. Oddly, Sally didn’t receive it.
The message held a file. When they opened it, they discovered an aurecording and surveillance footage.
“Whoa!” Taylor blurted out in surprise. He shot Sally a disapproving look. The others followed suit, their faces reflecting a mix of shock and disdain as they glared at Sally.
At that very moment, Sally realized that Nathan’s silence wasn’t a sign of forgiveness. Instead, he had shared evidence with the fami proving that she had framed Suzanne.
