The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 308

"In other words." Jacob's voice was raw and raspy. " Susie is really the child that the Wrights lost 25 years ago.

“Yeah." Anna looked straight at Jacob. "And her name i s not Susan Shelby. She is Rosalie Wright, and I want t o take her home."

Jacob closed his eyes, but he soon opened them once more.

"It's no use talking to me, Anna. You should talk to Susie. As long as she is willing to go back to the Wrights with you, I'll not stop her," Jacob said calmly.

Initially, Susan was the only family Jacob had, and Jacob was the only family Susan had. However, things had changed. Not only did Susan had a new family, but it was also a huge one.

He felt Susan had the right to know about the truth and make her own decision. After all, they were her real family, but he had no idea why there was an indescribable mixed feeling in his heart. 1

"Erm..." Anna felt embarrassed under his gaze. "I’m just afraid that Susie won't come back with me... I don't know how to talk to her, Jacob. Could you do me the favor and help me? I... I'm scared that she doesn't want to reunite with us."

Anna looked at Jacob with her dewy eyes.

Anna's concern was not totally unfounded.

Considering Susan’s feelings for Jacob, there was a huge probability that she would not want to go back to the Wrights with her.

Even though Oliver had returned home to tell their father and mother about this matter, Anna could not wait any longer to reunite with Susan.

Ever since the first time Anna met Susan, she evidently felt a sense of kinship with Susan that she had never had before with Serenity, whom she never got well along with since young.

"Go and talk to her yourself," Jacob rejected coldly.

"Can't you be a little helpful? Don't forget that you still owe me a favor!" Anna glared at Jacob. "Now I want you to help me persuade Susie to reunite with us!"

Jacob's brows furrowed as he drew his lips back. Anna was right. He was in debt to her.

"If you could help me, I... I... I..." Anna suddenly stamped her feet.

"You what?" Jacob pressured.

"I'll become your girlfriend!” Anna said through gritted teeth.

Jacob fell silent.

Anna felt her cheeks were burning. She pushed Jacob lightly and asked, "So, do you want to help me or not?" "I'll certainly return the favor, but you don't have to become my girlfriend,” Jacob said woodenly, staring straight at Anna’s reddened face.

All color washed from Anna’s face upon hearing what Jacob had said. "What do you mean by this, Jacob Shelby?”

It was very apparent that she was confessing her love t o him. She had mustered up a lot of courage, and it took her a lot to make the first step. How dare Jacob reject her?

Anna's eyes turned red around the rims. She clearly felt that Jacob had a thing for her. Could it be that she was hallucinating?

Jacob was thrown into a loop when he saw Anna’s teary eyes. He did not know what he had done, and why Anna looked like she was about to cry. He hastily said, "Didn’t I already say I will help you?"

"You...” Anna stared at Jacob for a long while, and then she suddenly realized something.

It occurred to her that Jacob did not realize she was confessing to her. Perhaps he thought she was joking with him.

For a moment, Anna did not know if she should feel happy or sad.

There were so many men in this world. Why would she fall in love with a dull dog like him?

Anna suddenly had a feeling that her love life would fill with plenty of bumps.

Jacob was still looking at her with a blank expression. Anna brooded and sulked for a fair while, but she realized there was nothing she could do.

She then said poutingly, "Then you must tell Susie later and help me to persuade her to reunite with us. 0 h yeah, remember to phrase your words a little and don't be so direct. I'm scared she won’t accept it."

"Alright." Jacob nodded.

During breakfast, Jacob was eating a sandwich while Anna was busy sending him signals.
