The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 265

Julian’s sudden honeyed words made Susan blush instantly. She lightly punched his chest and peered at Jacob meekly.

Julian was unbelievable. Jacob was still here and he was suddenly spewing embarrassing lines.

"Ah, feel free to go ahead. I’m a single bachelor now, but I'm no Seth Leeds. I can still handle a little PDA," Jacob quipped with a smile.

"Jacob, stop teasing!” Susan cried.

"I'm not," Jacob laughed, perfectly concealing the fret i n his eyes.

He knew why Julian acted out of the norm just now. The worry in him was no less than his, but they would be the only two people shouldering the distress. It was not a good time for Susie to find out about it now.

"Breakfast’s here!" Seth entered through the door with bags in his hands. "Mama Jean made them and sent them here specifically. I met her at the entrance and volunteered to take them in."

"Jacob, you can only have porridge today too. I’ll feed you." Susan picked up the porridge to carefully feed him.

"Susie, I can do it myself..." "Don't push it. Leave it to me." Susan ignored his resistance and fed him breakfast personally.

Unable to stop her, Jacob spoke after finishing the porridge. "Susie, I have at least a month in the hospital. It's not good for you to keep staying here when you're pregnant. You have to go home later. No buts and no keeping me company here anymore."

"But..."

“Susie, be good." Julian looked serious. "Taking care of someone is a tiring job. You should consider our baby i f not yourself.”

Julian had always been cautious with anything to do with Susan. Moreover, she could have a heart attack anytime now. According to Jacob, fatigue could trigger the condition and Susie was currently pregnant. He could not take the risk.

Both Jacob and Julian looked dead serious. Susan’s gaze flitted between both of them and she finally conceded. "Fine. I’ll go back today but you can't stay alone in the ward. I’m not here and Julian and Seth still have lots of things to do. Julian, we should get a caretaker."

"Don’t worry. I've already asked my personal assistant to look for a reliable caretaker. Someone should be coming over today," said Julian.

"Then I'll leave after the caretaker arrives," Susan replied.

Exchanging looks, Jacob and Julian could only nod in agreement.

"You can stay for now, but you have to leave after the caretaker comes," Julian stated strictly.

"I know, I know." Susan stuck her tongue out at him.

As they spoke, she looked skeptically at both men. " But you two are acting strange today. Are you keeping something from me?"

"No, you're thinking too much," Julian answered on reflex.

"But my sixth sense is tingling and it's telling me that you two must have some secret." Susan’s gaze went back and forth between the men. "When I wasn’t around last night, did you two..."

Susan suddenly wore a strange smile that only a fujoshi would understand.

"They what?" Seth asked curiously.

Julian and Jacob who knew her well enough looked aghast with the latter knocking her head. "What are you even thinking!"

"Ow, ow, ow!" Susan rubbed her forehead and looked a t Jacob like she was wronged.

"Act all you want, you drama queen." Jacob rolled his eyes but his hand had still gone to rub the spot for his sister.

"Hehe, you’re the best," Susan said cutely as she tilted her head up to enjoy the massage.
