Before their marriage, he said, “Our marriage is just an agreement on a piece of paper. Privately, we have nothing to do with each other.” After their marriage, whenever she ran into trouble, he would help her. When she was bullied, he would protect her. She obeyed the agreement and hid the fact that they were married but he announced to the world that she was his wife. When he secretly slipped into bed again, Susan got agitated. “What do you actually want?” He wore an innocent look as he begged, “Please hug me. Please kiss me. Please…” Facing the rogue CEO, Susan could only admit defeat. It was only many years later that she realized that he had loved her for a very long time.
View MoreSusan was still knitting her scarf in a leisurely manner. On one particular night, after everybody had gone to bed, Julian climbed up from his bed silently. By using the dim light as his only light source, he began to study how to knit a scarf.One had to reap what one had sowed. Since he had started all of this, he had to end it himself no matter how difficult it was.Julian could not fail. He was the CEO of a company after all. He was a fast learner, so it took him only three days to learn how to knit a scarf. Then, he finished knitting a scarf by himself in two nights. He wore the scarf to the company the next day.Even though it was still early to wear a scarf and he was sweating all over, the praise he received from his employees fed his vanity so he felt that it was worth it.Suddenly, his secretary called him.“Mr. Shaw, Mrs. Shaw is here to see you.”“Susie? Let her in then.”The secretary hesitated for a while and then said, “Mrs. Shaw said that she is here to give
Staring at the river that flickered like a diamond, Julian said in a hushed voice, “It’s all over, Susie.”It was only at this moment that everything was over.Susan nodded with a complex expression on her face.Julian ran his fingers over Susan’s hair but did not say anything.The evening sun had dyed the surface of the river with a layer of gold. Time seemed to have stopped, and everything was so ethereal as if this were a dream. After a long while, Susan hesitated and leaned her head against Julian’s shoulder.The corners of Julian’s lips curled up a little. Then, he scooped Susan up and held her tightly in his embrace. Willa had been the root of all this trouble, and she had gotten the retribution that she deserved. However, the trauma she had left behind had not disappeared completely.In the past few months, Julian had felt like there was an invisible wall between him and Susan. No matter how hard they tried, the two of them could not get back to the closeness that th
Susan Shelby’s attitude was displayed in a very apparent manner, but her attitude was not excessive at all compared to the acts committed by Madam Shaw. Julian Shaw was only thankful for Susan’s attitude. He had no complaints. Madam Shaw left, while Willa Doyle was imprisoned. Oliver Wright looked into Willa’s situation on purpose and described it to Susan vividly upon his return. “Willa has been thrown into a maximum-security prison. The women imprisoned there are all extremely cruel and merciless. Willa’s capability of producing viruses is utterly useless in prison. Her coquettish outlook makes her look like the words ‘come and bully me’ are written on her face.“The prison guards are already considering giving her special treatment because of her pregnancy. However, she is still in an extremely tragic state. The tricks up the sleeves of the female prisoners are unimaginable. You can’t think of what they can or can’t do. They do everything, including spitting into gargling c
‘If you choose to stay, I don’t know what the point of maintaining this parent-child relationship will be anymore…’Madam Shaw’s knees gave way and she almost fell to the ground. Julian Shaw’s remark resonated with unprecedented seriousness. Was… Was he really trying to disown his mother?Everything that she did and everything she had done was for the Shaws. Julian, who seemed to read Madam Shaw’s mind, said nonchalantly, “You’re family to me, yet I already have more than one family member now. In the past, I made a huge mistake by tolerating you when you hurt Susie and Chessie. However, I won’t do that anymore. The two of them are the most important people in my life, and I won’t allow anyone to hurt them anymore, not even you.”As Julian was speaking, he turned to Susan and said, “Susie, let’s go.”Madam Shaw was dumbstruck with bewilderment as she was left standing in the same spot alone. She gazed after Julian’s departing silhouette and felt a feeling of extreme panic a
One’s inner thigh could be considered an extremely private area of one’s body. There was a flower there?Madam Shaw could not help looking at Willa Doyle in suspicion. Even though Willa was still putting up a strong front, a wisp of obvious panic flashed past her gaze. Even though she calmed down quickly, Madam Shaw managed to notice her expression. Madam Shaw felt her heart racing at once. Could Trey Lowe be telling the truth?“What kind of nonsense are you talking about?” Willa denied this loudly. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”“We were so loving that day. You can’t just turn against me and refuse to acknowledge me now.” How could a gangster like Trey allow Willa to talk about this matter ambiguously? He walked over and tried to pull down Willa’s pants. “We’ll find out if there is a tattoo or not after we take a look.”“Stop, stop it!” Willa shrieked. Madam Shaw wanted to help out subconsciously, but the bodyguard standing next to her pulled at her to sto
Willa’s face turned pale immediately as Chesney spoke very clearly.She’d been hoping that the video would show something else when it had first started playing.However, as the video continued playing, she literally felt a chill running down her spine as she looked at Julian.The fact that Julian had shown them the video meant that he had already known that Willa was the one who had planned that drama a while ago.However, why had he still patiently worked with her all this while?Why?The reason was simple and obvious!Since the beginning, Julian had just wanted to distract her for a while so that she would agree to treat Susan.At that moment, Willa’s hands were intertwined tightly.She bit her teeth and could not wait to rush forward and destroy the projector. However, she knew nothing would change. The video was still playing.Everything, including Willa stabbing herself, calling for help, and accusing Susan and Chessie, had been clearly recorded in the video.Many people felt he
Willa shifted her gaze to Julian with a smile. “What are you trying to do by bringing this up, Julian?” Julian casually answered expressionlessly, “The agents of the Dark Night Agency are experts at using many different viruses. Hence, Willa used this opportunity to get Susie drugged and forced me to be with her because she could treat Susie. I agreed to be with her for Susie’s sake.”Everyone finally seemed enlightened after listening to Julian’s explanation.That was the truth!Most of them had actually thought that Julian and Susan had decided to part too suddenly.In fact, they had always been a sweet couple, but it had been believed that Julian had a mistress all of a sudden.They had finally discovered that the truth was a different story.“Do you have to treat me this way, Julian?” Willa added as she pitifully glimpsed at Julian, “Do you have to dump me right after I treated Susan? I was just playing a small role, even though I was part of the Dark Night Agency. Everything I’ve
Sensing the change in Julian’s expression, Willa hastily forced away the joy on her face and said pitifully, “Julian, you made a will before you went missing. You said you were going to pass all your assets to our baby. However, after you went missing, the Wrights did not believe us. We ran out of options, so we could only come and beg them.”Willa was still kneeling on the ground. The way she looked at Julian was extremely pitiful. It was only then that Madam Shaw came back to her senses. She hastily backed Willa up and added, “Yeah, Julian. The Wrights are blood-sucking ticks. Since you’re back, you should hurry up and file for divorce from Susan so that they don’t have an excuse to take control of your assets.”“Hah!” Susan let out a cold sneer.She finally understood why her kids looked like they had been crying a lot, why Anna and Serenity’s faces were so dark, and why her mother would collapse from rage.‘Very well, Madam Shaw and Willa. Very well.’Willa was taken aback b
