The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 124

Susan was startled when she was lifted into midair.

She did not dare to shout out loud so she just complained in an undertone, "Put me down, Julian. We’re in the office right now!"

However, Julian paid her no heed. He harrumphed and held her even tighter.

Everybody in the office looked slack-jawed as Julian carried Susan into the office in his arms.

Shocked, puzzled, jealous, and envious. Susan could feel all sorts of gazes boring into her.

Thanks to Mr. Shaw, Susan was in the spotlight once again. If there was a hole, she would certainly bury herself in it.

Julian carried her all the way before finally putting her down in his seat.

After Susan settled herself down on the seat, she cleared her throat and said, "I sprained my ankle, so M r. Shaw carried me in. We're really lucky to have a good boss like Mr. Shaw who cares about his staff.”

After a short bout of silence, only then did the crowd begin to come around from the shock. One after another, the crowd began assenting, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're too lucky.”

There were also several female colleagues wondering i f they should do the same or not.

After all, when Susan tripped in the canteen last time, she fell straight into Julian's embrace. This time, she sprained her ankle and Julian came forward to carry her in his arms. It seemed to them that Julian had a tender heart to the fairer sex, so there was a possibility that he would treat them the same way if they imitated Susan.

Their hearts began to race and their faces blushed when they thought about having close contact with Julian.

Luke and his crew soon arrived. He glanced over at Susan and it took him a lot not to walk over to her to check her out. He then put on an indifferent face as he suggested, "Miss Shelby’s feet look serious. I think we should send her into the hospital right away."

"It's okay, it's okay," Susan waved her hand, "Just get m e some medication and I'll be fine."

As she was talking, she attempted to raise her feet. However, she seemed to have overestimated herself, and the moment she stood up, a sharp pain pierced through her and she shouted.

Julian's expression turned even darker. He pressed her back onto the seat and instructed, "Sit down and don't move."

"Okay," Susan said as she looked at him with dewy eyes. She did not move anymore.

Julian examined her ankle for a while, then turned around and ordered his secretary, "Go and find me an ice pack.”

"Huh?" The secretary was stunned. He had no idea where to find an ice pack at this moment. 1

That being said, he still went away to do the bidding a s Julian instructed. The secretary was efficient. Soon enough, the ice pack arrived.

Julian took over the ice pack. Just when he was going to apply the ice pack on Susan's ankle, Susan went forward and snatched it away from his grasp. Then, she forced a smile on her face and said, "It's okay, Mr. Shaw. I can take it from here. You guys should go on with your meeting. I'll be fine by myself."

While they were waiting for the ice pack, she had a feeling that she would have died a thousand times if those gazes were all swords.

'This is too scary!'

When Julian saw Susan trying to keep a distance from him, his eyes darkened and his expression turned stony. However, he did not say anything and just let out a snort before standing up.

As Julian walked away, Susan could sense the intensity of the gaze from the crowd lessened by a huge degree, and she let out a sigh of relief.

Charlotte had been telling herself that she should not mess with Susan in front of Julian. Wrath and jealousy contended in her, but she held them back.

Now, she could not hold it anymore and asked, "Mr. Shaw, can we get to business already?"

Throwing her a sidelong glance, Julian answered," Employees are the root of the organization. Taking care of employees is the most important thing for an employer to do."
