The Reclaimed Rose (Annalise and Steven) novel Chapter 324

Suzy didn't want Penelope to get involved, knowing she was just a child with means to deal with Liam.

Suzy gently said, "Leave these matters to the adults, alright?"

I stepped forward to untie Suzy, then pulled out my phone to call the police. Meanwhile, Suzy coldly dialed the property management office.

Zane walked out of the bedroom, dragging a beaten but still defiant Liam. Tossing him onto the living room floor, Zane wiped his hands like he had just taken out the trash.

Still unwilling to back down, Liam sneered, "She's my ex-wife. Coming here to see her is my right. Who are you to interfere? What's your relationship with her anyway?"

Zane recalled Steven at the mention of "ex-wife". He retorted instinctively, "You're very clear she's your ex-wife and not your current wife, aren't you? That alone means you have no right to barge into her home."

Liam eyed Zane warily. "Why are you so concerned about her? Don't tell me you've got a thing for her."

Zane responded without hesitation, "She's an employee at my company and is handling a crucial project. As her superior, it's my duty to ensure her safety."

Their conversation was cut short as both the police and the security guards arrived. After a brief inquiry, the police officers took Liam away.

Suzy's fury turned toward the security guards. "I pay substantial management fees every month, and yet you couldn't even stop a stranger from entering the community or this building.

"Letting him get as far as my door—what a stellar performance!"

The security guard stammered, "He said he was your husband."

Suzy's expression turned colder. "And you just believed him? Did you even check for proof?"

The guard had no answer, lowering his head in shame. "It won't happen again," he mumbled.

"It better not," Suzy snapped.
