Because of what? Susan Shelby looked at Julian Shaw in confusion.
Julian stared at her with a deep gaze. "That is because I am Little Leaf.”
Susan was stunned for a long while, then she suddenly burst out laughing. "Julian, stop joking.”
Julian was Little Leaf? That must be some international joke!
Julian's brows twitched once involuntarily as he witnessed Susan’s incredulousness. He had been deliberating for a long time and hoped to be melodramatic for a little while.
As a result, Susan asked him to stop joking?
The woman spoiled the surprise!
Julian pulled a long face and bent over to pick up Princess Susan right away.
Then, he turned his head to take a glance at the unconscious Wayne Lewis with an icy cold gaze.
"Mr. Shaw.” Two bodyguards clad in black outfits guarded the door.
Julian walked outside with Susan in his arms at once. Then, he said, "Seize that man inside the house and take him back to Ningcheng City.”
"Yes," answered the security guard.
"Julian, he didn't really manage to have his way," Susan heaved a sigh. "He's a friend of mine from my childhood after all. Let him go. It's fine as long as he doesn't appear again in eternity."
The appearance of this man had ruined her childhood.
However, this man was still Little Leaf after all. Susan did not want him to meet a tragic end for the sake of their childhood friendship.
"Foolish woman." Julian could not help glaring at Susan.
Susan had yet to react to the situation at this point.
"You..." Susan was displeased. "Yes, I'm foolish. I'm so foolish so why are you still here looking for me? Go and see Isabelle instead. She's the smartest one!"
The more Susan spoke, the angrier she became. In the end, she began struggling in Julian's arms. "Put me down!"
Julian held her even tighter. "Put you down? Don't even think about it in your lifetime!"
"Why? You're over there having a good time mingling with Isabelle and you’re here to see me. Could it be that you're trying to engage in a polygamous relationship?" Susan was even more infuriated. She was so angry that she could not refrain from biting Julian's hand.
Julian held back the urge to grunt. His voice sounded even more gentle. "Susie, Isabelle is the obstacle between us. The reason why I approached Isabelle earlier was to investigate something."
"What thing is that!" Susan refused to believe Julian's explanation.
After all, seeing is believing.
"Do you still remember our promise from twenty years ago?" Julian stared at Susan with a deep gaze.
Our promise from twenty years ago?
Susan was stunned. It was the 20-year-old promise between her and Little Leaf though.
How did Julian...learn about this matter?
Julian said right away, "I went to the secret base and waited for a very long time that day. Yet, you didn't come. The person who came was Isabelle Shelby."
"You you you you..." Shock flashed past Susan’s eyes.
He said everything he had to say. Julian... Could it be that he really was Little Leaf?
"I had a car accident that day. Thus, I sent Isabelle to g o on my behalf. Isabelle told me that Little Leaf didn’t come at all," said Susan anxiously.
