At that moment, Susan felt the gazes that fell on her solidifying. Since she was unable to free herself, she gave up struggling.Susan would rather plant her face into Julian’s chest. That way, no one would be able to see her!Feeling the woman nestling like a kitten in his arms, Julian’s mouth could not help break into a faint smile.“Mr. Shaw, can we ask you a few questions now?” a reporter asked cautiously.Julian was in a good mood, so he waved. “Ask away.”The reporters instantly went crazy.“Were you secretly involved with Cheryl Young?”“What’s your view on social media influencer Linda West’s sudden 5kg weight loss after you broke up with her?”“Is the woman in your arms your new girlfriend?”“Chairman Shaw, how long do you think you will be in a relationship with this woman?”The questions were like raining missiles.Susan did not want to lift her head which was buried in Julian’s embrace.He smiled deeply and an unpredictable flash appeared in his eyes. “I don’t want to answe
“How long are you going to stay there? Is it extra comfortable in my arms?” Julian lowered his head and said softly.“What a narcissist!” Susan said sullenly.“Or should I say that you’re afraid of seeing your ex-boyfriend getting married and will be too sad till you cry, so you’d rather not watch?” Julian retorted calmly, “Susan, the wedding is going to be a long night. You can’t keep hiding like this.”As Susan’s thoughts were exposed, she bit her lower lip. She would not cry in sadness though.It was just that they had once deeply loved and were forcibly separated. Seeing Luke get married would no doubt cause her heart to be in agony.On the other hand, she felt that it would be awkward to appear at this function.Since Julian had already said it though, if she continued to hide, it would only make her look suspicious.Susan thought about it and felt that she should not stay in his arms.However, when she moved, he adjusted his stance. He exerted force with his arm and turned around
In Susan’s mind, their past memories flashed by one by one.During their schooling days, they had promised their hearts to each other.Then, there was the objection from the Jenkins family.Finally, their perseverance prevailed.Scene by scene, they were all secrets in her own mind. Susan was eventually entranced by the memories.‘Although these are still happy memories, they are just memories. Luke, I wish you happiness anyway.’The wedding ceremony proceeded as planned with blessed smiles on everyone’s faces.“Now, we invite the groom to put the ring on the bride.”Luke picked up the ring that had been made in France. It was made with the finest diamonds and the best craftsmanship. Naturally, it cost a lot too.Mandy was already looking at him expectantly.Suddenly, an extremely clear image flashed in Luke’s mind.“Are you that stingy? The rings are only made of straw?”“The real ring, I’ll only put it on your finger in front of the entire world.”As they hugged each other
At the wedding,A security guard from the wedding hurried over.He walked up to Julian and Susan and said anxiously, “Miss Shelby, will you please follow me? Your help is needed.”Susan noticed the security guard’s anxious expression and guessed that it must be related to Luke’s fainting spell. She stood up without hesitation. “Okay, I will immediately…”“Wait.” Julian pulled Susan back into his arms calmly. “This is my woman. Who are you to say that she must help you just because you ask her to?”The bodyguard choked on his saliva, but he did not dare argue with Julian. He only said cautiously, “Mr. Shaw, it’s really urgent. Please let Miss Shelby help.”“Oh? What is the matter? Please make it clear. Otherwise, if you ask for help and Susan helps you, won’t I lose face?” Julian said slowly.“This…” The bodyguard glanced at the guests, who were watching the scene unfold, with some embarrassment in his eyes.He could not say that the groom had collapsed and was calling out for M
Madam Jenkins was terribly mortified when she had to bow and scrape before Julian and Susan despite that she was older than them. She was less aggravated to show some respect to Julian since he was someone filled with consequences, but she could not get over the fact that she had to do the same to Susan, the woman who she considered her to be beneath contempt. What made her think that she deserved her decency? However, Madam Jenkins knew that now was not the right time for that. The most impor
“Miss Susan, he is all yours now. Please help us calm him down,” Madam Jenkins said, struggling to suppress all signs of her disgust.Susan nodded and she walked straight towards Luke. For a moment, a series of complex emotions flashed across Mandy’s eyes. She was caught between the devil and the deep blue sea because she had no idea whether or not she should pray that Susan could stabilize Luke down. If Susan were able to achieve something that not even she could not do, then would it not make
If this was the past, Susan Shelby would have yielded instantaneously upon seeing Julian Shaw’s raging expression. However, she discovered in astonishment that she did not fear Julian in her heart now as much as she used to. “Julian, consider this a favor to me, alright?” Susan stared at Julian in a pleading manner. She did not want anything bad to happen to Luke Jenkins. After all, she used to love him so deeply in the past. She just could not bring herself to ignore Luke now. Julian
Why did she prepare the love letter in two languages? It was to make her appear classy and elegant. The love letter that she prepared meticulously would end up in a trash can straightaway every time. However, she would still launch another attack in high spirits the next time. This time, she was mentally prepared for the love letter to be tossed right away. Yet, she did not expect that Luke would raise an eyebrow, unfold the love letter and take a glance at it nonchalantly. “You wrote th
