Believing she's alone in the brush, it catches her off guard when Babida, the lumberjack, calls out to her.

However, things take a turn when Suzie learns about Babida's heroic past from her maternal uncle. Suddenly, her perception shifts, and admiration for him begins to blossom. She discovers that the man she initially pushed away is actually a celebrated hero, a force of nature who bravely defeated the fearsome Monster of the Forbidden Mountain more than a decade ago.

The Lumberjack And The Beautiful Suzie Chapter 1 Prologue (1)

"Oh Oluwa, god of the forest, what a stunning maiden I see in the grass over there!" Babida, the lumberjack, exclaimed as he took a break from chopping wood. The reason for his sudden pause: a slender, dark-skinned girl, around eighteen, with curly hair, holding a basket brimming with mushrooms in her right hand. Her name was Suzie.

She'd been sent into the woods by her grandmother-affectionately called big momma-to gather mushrooms for dinner soup.

With her back turned, Suzie was completely focused on her hunt for the white Button species, sorting through her finds. She tossed aside the ones that could make you sick and carefully placed the good ones into her rubber basket for the elderly's favorite dish.

As she bent down to pick more mushrooms, the hem of her pink silk mini-dress shifted upward, revealing more of her smooth, hairless legs. The dress was tied at the waist with cords, creating an adorable butterfly knot at the front.

Babida, mesmerized, felt his brief pause stretch into an endless moment of fascination. The steel ax he'd gripped tightly for the past two hours slipped from his hands and landed in the pile of wood shavings at his feet.

"Hey there!" he called out, his voice booming through the quiet woods.

The sudden shout startled Suzie. She turned around, her eyes wide and her left hand pressed against her chest, before letting out a deep sigh and taking a step back.

Before her stood a tall, sweaty man in his thirties, his muscular frame on full display in the afternoon sun. His chest was as broad as a mountain, and his bulging biceps were lined with distinct veins.

"Who are you?" Suzie shouted, panic creeping into her voice.

"What are you doing here?" she added, continuing to back away.

"Sorry, Miss! I didn't mean to scare you. Please forgive my manners!" Babida replied, his tone softening.

Unsure how to react to his peaceful demeanor, Suzie decided it was best to leave.

"Anyway, I'm going now," she said, quickening her pace as she headed back through the brush.

"Wait, please! Can I at least know your name?" Babida called after her, offering a bright smile.

"Why? I just told you I'm leaving! Didn't you hear me?" Suzie shot back, then took off running, her basket of mushrooms clutched tightly in her hand.

Babida reached out his arm to stop her, but it was too late. The beautiful stranger had disappeared into the forest as quickly as she could.

Feeling a wave of disappointment wash over him, the woodsman clenched his fists and let out a frustrated scream.

In the bustling city of Palmer, a striking beauty named Jane Hart lived a life of modest means with her father Mark, a retired construction worker. Despite her impoverished background, Jane's goddess-like physique - slim, svelte, with black tresses, brown eyes, and baby's skin - belied her station as a mere waitress struggling to make ends meet. One fateful day, while working as a cleaner at an art gallery, Jane's path crossed with that of Brandon Harrington, the heir to a prominent crude oil empire. Brandon was instantly captivated by Jane's ethereal beauty, and struck up a conversation about art that revealed her unexpected depth of knowledge. Recognizing her potential, he offered her a job as his secretary. Jane eagerly accepted, and on her first day, her beauty mesmerized the entire office, including Brandon himself. As they grew closer, an undeniable attraction blossomed between them, much to the chagrin of Brandon's long-time colleague Isabella Normand, who became consumed with jealousy. When news of their budding romance reached Brandon's aristocratic parents, Edward and Evelyn Harrington, they were appalled at the prospect of their son consorting with a woman of such low birth. Determined to put an end to the affair, they hired a private investigator who uncovered Jane's sordid past as a former prostitute, a desperate means of survival she had long since left behind. Devastated by the revelation, Brandon found himself torn between his love for Jane and the demands of his formidable parents, who insisted he break off the engagement and marry the more socially acceptable Isabella Normand, whose father was a valued business associate. Reluctantly, Brandon acquiesced, shattering Jane's heart and casting her back into poverty. Undeterred, Jane invested her meager savings into launching her own fashion company, a long-held dream that blossomed into remarkable success. However, fate had more twists in store as a financial crisis struck, decimating the Harrington empire and leaving Brandon and Isabella destitute. In a cruel twist of fate, Brandon found himself seeking employment at Jane's thriving fashion house, where he was granted an interview – only to come face-to-face with his former love. Despite the pain of their past, Jane's forgiving nature prevailed, and she hired Brandon as an accountant. But their reunion was short-lived, as Jane's new, wealthy companion grew increasingly possessive and abusive, culminating in a shocking public assault witnessed by Brandon. Outraged, Brandon intervened, reigniting the spark between him and Jane as her companion stormed off, their engagement shattered once more. Seizing the opportunity, the impoverished Brandon rekindled his relationship with Jane, harboring ulterior motives to exploit her wealth and regain his former opulence. Yet Jane's friend warned her of Brandon's deceitful plans, prompting her to hire a private investigator who uncovered Brandon's embezzlement of company funds. Confronted with the truth, Jane was forced to face the harsh reality of Brandon's betrayal. He was swiftly prosecuted and imprisoned, leaving Jane heartbroken but ultimately free to find true love and happiness with her reconciled companion. Together, they married and welcomed a beautiful daughter, a testament to Jane's resilience and the triumph of her unwavering spirit over the adversities that once threatened to consume her.

My five-year-old daughter was dying in the ICU, her heartbeat replaced by the continuous, electronic scream of a flatline. I gripped her cold hand, my throat sealed shut by a terror so absolute I couldn't even cry out. I dialed my husband Grayson's private number, the one reserved only for me and his assistants. He declined the call instantly. A second later, a text buzzed against my palm: "In a meeting. Do not disturb. Stop calling." Five miles away, Grayson was at a luxury gala, adjusting his silk tie and laughing with Belle Escobar. He told her I was just being "dramatic" and using our daughter's "fever" as an excuse to avoid the event. He had no idea Effie's heart had already stopped. When I finally reached our penthouse, soaked from the rain and carrying Effie's small socks in a plastic bag, Grayson didn't even look at me. He snapped at me for ruining the hardwood floors and asked if I'd left Effie with the nanny just to "feel sorry for myself." Three days later, while I buried our daughter in a small, lonely ceremony, Grayson was at the Hamptons. Belle posted a photo of him golfing with the caption: "A mental health day with the boys." He didn't even attend the funeral, but he returned home demanding I clear out Effie's room to make a study for Belle's son. The injustice burned through me until there was nothing left. I swallowed a handful of sleeping pills, desperate to join my daughter. But instead of the darkness, I woke up to blinding lights and the scent of Grayson's expensive cologne. I was standing in a ballroom, wearing a blue silk dress I had already burned. Above me, a banner read: "Happy 5th Birthday Kaiden & Effie." I was back, exactly one year before the tragedy. This time, I wasn't going to be the grieving wife. I was going to be their worst nightmare.
