The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 318

While Julian mulled over the solutions to help Oliver, h e had to be careful to keep it from the women's knowledge.

The television and computers at home were put out of service with the excuse of maintenance. The internet and mobile texts were blocked in some way or another as well. Julian stopped the delivery of newspapers too.

He could not keep this up for long, however. Susie and the others would be suspicious once this went on.

Luna raised her suspicion much faster than Julian had predicted as she had insisted to head out on the second day. Julian tried stopping her a few times, only serving to heighten her skepticism.

With her eyes on Julian, she asked directly, "Did something big happen, Julian?"

"No," Julian answered without missing a beat. "I just think it’s best not to head out since it's cold.”

Luna kept her eyes trained on Julian and said decisively, "It's got to do with the Wrights?"

It was a question but her tone was affirmative.

The cat got out of the bag. Luna's shrewdness was beyond Julian's expectations. He could not help squint. It was plain that the eye-catching one in the

Wrights was George, but the person who actually supported the family and kept it from crumbling was Luna.

"It's grave." Luna continued to make her guess while looking at Julian.

The man kept quiet.

Luna stared at him for a while and gave her conclusion. "The person caught in it is Oliver."

"What? Mom, what could possibly happen to him?" Anna asked in confusion.

"I don’t know what happened, but it's something big for sure. Otherwise, Julian wouldn't have to do so much to keep us from having access to the news, yes?" Luna looked at the said man with a smile.

"Huh?" Pairs of bewildered eyes then shot over to Julian.

Julian sighed, "Madam Wright, it's Marshal Wright who asked me to keep it from you. I'm just helping.”

Luna snorted, "Keep it from me? That old thing's overestimating himself. Without me, the Wrights would have been trampled over in tricks and conspiracies for god knows how many times! Okay, now that I've found out, tell me about it."

Luna seemed calm, but there was still a glint of anxiousness in her gaze.

Seeing that hiding the truth was impossible, Julian contemplated before asking for the newspaper.

Luna was appalled when she read the news.

"Madam Wright, what's wrong? Why do you look so disturbed? What's on the paper?" Madam Shaw came close curiously and read aloud to herself, "Five million dollars bribery, Oliver Wright sent to jail. Howls my dad is the marshal."
