The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 208

Madam Shaw had a bee in her head recently. She had been racking her brain to come up with a way to make Susan do the paternity test, but to no avail. Rubbing her temples, she groaned, "My head hurts whenever I think. I wonder where Isa has been. She has not been showing up lately and I couldn't get to her through the phone. Her massage skill is good and my headache does get better under her care."

A servant standing next to her smiled and replied, " Miss Shelby seems to have married far away. She will not come anymore."

"She is married?" Madam Shaw sounded surprised, " Why didn't she tell me? I should've sent her a wedding gift since she took care of me for so long."

Then, she thought for a moment and continued, "I remember she left me her home address. How about this? You go and help me buy a present. After that, I'll bring it to her family and ask them to hand it over to her."

"I'm sorry, Madam Shaw. But the Shelbys have moved t o another city to continue their business. They are not staying here anymore," the servant continued.

"Is that so?" Madam Shaw was taken aback by the news for a moment, but she soon came around. She looked at the servant quizzically and asked, "How do you know all this?"

The servant then replied, "That's what Mister Julian told me. He also told me to tell you if you ever bring the topic up, and I don’t have to say anything if you never ask. After all, she is not anyone important anyway."

"Julian told you that?" Madam Shaw was stunned. She felt something was amiss, but her headache had rendered her unable to think clearly. Rubbing her temples, she said, "Maybe it’s Isa who asked him to tell me."

Seeing Madam Shaw's face had scrunched up due to her headache, the servant suggested, "Madam, Mister Julian has hired the best masseur from town for you. D o you want me to call him over?"

"Well, although he's doing a pretty good job, I still think Isa is the best. But, anyway, it’s better than nothing. Yeah, let him come over,” Madam Shaw said lazily.

Very soon, the masseur arrived. Lying on the couch, she began to enjoy the high standard massage technique.

After that, the pain in her head ebbed and she could think things more clearly.

She reckoned that she must not allow Julian to gloss over the things about his heir just like that. He was so enchanted by Susan that he would not suspect her at all. As such, as his mother, Madam Shaw felt the obligation to help him check over Susan.

However, she was fully aware that she could not mention the paternity test in front of Susan. It would not get anything done other than worsen her relationship with Julian and Susan. She was not that stupid yet.

Therefore, she decided to wait until the second month of Susan's pregnancy. At that time, she would find an excuse and bring her to the hospital. Then, she would have the people over there draw her blood to do the test.

After she laid out a plan, she then pressed down her doubts and diverted all her attention to taking care of Susan's well being. She sent various kinds of supplements to her every day. When Susan mentioned that she had no appetite and she could not eat anything, she dispersed all her men to get the freshest ingredients from around the country just to make her eat more.

This month, she treated Susan even better than Julian.

Susan was not someone who was ignorant. She was fully aware that the baby in her tummy was the reason for the changes in Madam Shaw's attitude.

However, she did not think too much about it. She just hoped that she could mend their relationship through this opportunity.

"It’s done," Susan said. Her eyes gleamed with merriment as she admired the final design on the computer.

"It's done?" Julian walked over anxiously, "So you can go rest now?

Susan smiled and shot a look at him. "Don't you want t o take a look at the final design of the resort project? This is a huge project that is worth over 10 billion dollars. If there are no other problems, then this design probably will be the final version."

Julian took a glance at the computer and then said, "I think it’s great. Okay, let’s go rest."

"What can you see in just a glance?" Susan was tickled pink by Julian. However, she still heeded to him and got onto the bed.

She wanted to finish her work, but Julian was against it. If it were not for her throwing a tantrum about it, she was certain that Julian would not allow her to even get close to her computer.

"Since the project is done, you don't have to worry about the rest anymore. I think it’s time for you to settle down and rest," Julian looked at Susan, his voice laced thick with concern.

Julian had been on a tenterhook during this period. This was because Susan had a bad appetite and she would throw up everything that she put into her mouth. Even though she had been pregnant for two months, instead of putting up weight, she lost a few pounds.
