The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 310

"Jacob..." Susan nervously grabbed the hem of her dress.

"What is the thing that you want to talk to me about?" she asked, her eyes darting around the room as she refused to meet Jacob's eyes.

She did not want to see the disappointment on Jacob's face after he knew that she was not his biological sister.

“Susie," Jacob called out to her. His gaze softened when he saw the panic that lined Susan's face.

It was only now that he realized that he was not the only one who was shrouded in fear.

They depended on each other for so many years, and they were inseparable. He was afraid that Susan would not want him to be her brother anymore, and the feeling was mutual. Both of their worries were totally unfounded.

The thought put a smile on Jacob's face. He ran his fingers over Susan's hair as he said, "Susie, the reason I gave them your hair to do the DNA test is that I found the witness that year and I already knew that you're not my biological sister. Secondly, the Wrights are tenacious. They have been looking for you for such a long time, so there is no way they would let go of even the slightest hope. Rather than holding out on them, I figured it’s better to do the test. As for the result, it doesn't really matter for me."

Holding her head low, Susan just nodded.

"Previously, I was afraid to let you do the DNA test because I thought you would not want me to be your brother anymore once you found out that we are not related by blood.”

"I won't, Jacob. I will not." Susan suddenly raised her head and gazed anxiously at Jacob.

Jacob was tickled pink by her reaction and he chuckled, "Yeah, I know you won't. I know you would never abandon me, and I am the same as well. Even if we are not related by blood, I'll still be your brother. That is something that will never change."

Jacob's eyes were warm and soft as always.

Tears began to well in Susan's eyes. She threw herself into Jacob's arms and bawled her eyes out. "Brother."

"Alright, alright. Everything will be alright," Jacob comforted her as he patted her back lightly.

Susan had a good cry. After a long while, she raised herself up from Jacob's arms. As she wiped her eyes, she was somewhat embarrassed to feel the tears on her cheeks.

She pushed Jacob away a little from her and said in a n undertone, "I didn’t want to cry actually. Please... don't laugh at me."

It took Jacob a lot not to laugh at Susan. Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were red with tears. It reminded him of the little girl who used to follow him around when both of them were still kids.

However, even if she was married, even if she was going to become the mother of another child, he was willing to let her rely on him for the rest of her life.

It did not matter much to him if they were related by blood. The things that fettered them together was not something so shallow but their feelings for each other and the time that they had spent together.

Jacob went forward and helped Susan wipe the tears off her face. Then, he said, "Okay, don't think too much. No matter what happens, you will always be m y sister."

Embarrassed, Susan nodded.

'Ahhhh! This is so embarrassing... How could I act like a baby just now?'

On the other side, Jacob fell into a pensive mood.

After a long while, he said, "The best news from this test is that since we are not biological siblings, you won't inherit the cardiac disorder. Both you and your baby will be safe. As for your new family... Well, it depends on you whether or not you want to reunite with them. I guess it is better for you to think about it yourself."

Susan balled her hands into fists as the second wave o f anxiety shot up from her stomach pit.

After she resolved the issue between her and Jacob, only then was she in the mood to think about the Wrights.
