The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 367

"Mr. Shaw, Susan wants to see you," Rainn whispered into Joseph's ear.

"Susan wants to see me?" Joseph pondered it for a while before saying, "Alright. Let's go meet her."

"Charlotte wants to see you as well. She even said that all of us are leeching off her family's money, so we have to listen to her orders," Rainn reported, his voice laced thick with sarcasm.

"Something must have gone wrong with her head again," Joseph sneered. "Find someone to teach her a lesson. If she still behaves like that, cut off her tongue." 1

"Yes, Boss." Rainn did not have a good impression of Charlotte at all. He turned around and gave the order.

Susan and Serenity were waiting in their room. Then, the door suddenly opened.

Leaning against the door, Joseph looked expressionlessly at Susan and asked, "I heard you were looking for me?"

Susan tried to study Joseph's expression, but to no avail. She thus gritted her teeth and snarled out, "Tell me, Joseph. What have you asked Julian to do for you?"

"I'm pretty sure you won't want to know that.” A sinister grin appeared at the corner of Joseph's lips.

"Just tell me.” Susan tightened her hands into fists.

The bad hunch in her heart was getting stronger and stronger.

Joseph threw a knowing glance at Susan and then said, "Well, since you want to know about it so bad, I suppose I should tell you. Alright, listen carefully. I told Julian to kill George Wright and Oliver Wright if h e wants you to live."

"What?” Susan and Serenity jumped up at the same time.

"Are you out of your mind, Joseph Shaw?" Serenity was so angry that she sent a kick Joseph's way.

Joseph evaded her kick effortlessly. Then, he grabbed her long leg and pushed her up against the wall. "It’s important to know your own limits. Please don't show your poor martial art skills in front of me. It'll only make you seem even more pathetic.”

“Let go of Serenity!" Susan dashed forward and tried to pry Joseph’s hand open.

Joseph looked at Susan and then pulled away his hand. "Don’t worry. I'm a man of my word. Since I've promised Julian not to hurt you, I won't do anything to you two."

Susan was helping Serenity stand up. When she heard Joseph's words, she jerked her head up to look at Joseph, her eyes widening in shock. "What do you mean you’ve promised Julian? Could Julian have...”

Had Julian agreed to Joseph's condition?

No, this was not possible.

Marshal Wright and Oliver were her family, but even if they were not, Susan could not have brought herself to use the lives of innocent people in exchange for their lives.

If Julian really had done it, even if she was saved in the end, she would not have the courage to live in this world anymore.

"You’re lying. There is no way Julian would agree to something like this," Serenity said. Although she looked calm on the surface, her shaking body had already betrayed her.

"Of course he agreed to my condition." Joseph seemed to enjoy seeing them panic very much. A wide grin appeared on his face as he said, "Actually, Julian said no to me, but after I showed him the video of you two, he finished making all the arrangements in one hour."

Then, Joseph turned to look at Susan. There was an expression on his face that Susan could not read. " Every Shaw is indeed a devout lover. I guess you're Julian's Achilles' heel."

"You... You're a monster.” Susan felt like she was on the verge of going insane.
