“Cut it off, Nathan. Let’s go back,” Suzanne urged, pushing Nathan. away and breaking free from his embrace. After gathering her composure, she turned on her heels and fled in embarrassment.

Meanwhile, Suzanne had left the back garden and returned to the house. Stepping into the living room, she found Sally engaged in conversation with the Morrisons.
Upon noticing Suzanne, Sally stood up and asked pretentiously,” There you are Suzanne. Have you seen Nate anywhere?”
The sight of Sally ignited new fury within Suzanne. When she remembered Sally’s attempts to sabotage her relationship with Nathan, her anger boiled over. She had tolerated Sally’s antics in past, but not anymore.

sow discord between a husband and wife.”
Sally’s expression paled instantly, though she tried to feign innocence. “I don’t understand what you’re talking about. There must be smistake.”
The other Morrisons exchanged surprised glances upon hearing Suzanne’s accusation. Only Layla remained defiant, her sneer
revealing her contempt. “It’s no mistake. Nathan’s love for Sally is undeniable.”
Suzanne faced Layla with a cold inquiry. “Are you a parasite, Layla?”
“Who are you calling a parasite?” Layla retorted, rising to her feet.
Undeterred, Suzanne maintained her composure. “Then why are you so convinced that Nathan has feelings for Sally?”
Layla gestured towards her family and declared, “It’s no secret! Everyone is aware of this!”
“That’s enough, Layla. I don’t want to cause anyone else upset.” Holding Layla’s arm, Sally murmured with a pitiful tone.
