The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 40

Julian's composure also reassured Susan.

She bit her lower lip. "I...I want to go and look for my brother too."

"I'll go with you." Julian did not stop her and held her hand instead. His palms were very warm which helped quieten Susan's fluttering heart.

A single call from Julian had hundreds of people holding Jacob's photo and searching within 80 kilometers of the nursing home.

Julian brought Susan to go straight to the nursing home.

"You were saying that Jacob's condition suddenly changed yesterday," Julian asked the nurse on duty," Yesterday before his condition changed, what was he doing?"

The nurse recalled for a while before saying," Recently, Mr. Shelby could already do some simple reading. To help him recover as fast as possible, we regularly send a few copies of newspapers to his room. Before his condition worsened, Mr. Shelby was reading the newspapers as usual. Then, suddenly, his expression changed."

"Pass me those newspapers," Julian said calmly.

The newspapers quickly found its way to his hands.

"Julian, do you see anything?" Susan was already very desperate. Even she did not realize that she was relying on Julian involuntarily.

When he frowned and looked at one of the headlines, Susan quickly glanced at it too.

"The Jenkins and the Ainsleys tie the knot. According to sources, the wedding reception of the Jenkins family’s eldest son, Luke, and the Ainsley family’s precious daughter will be held next Wednesday. The wedding will be held on the island of Bali on..."

In the newspaper, there were reports of Luke Jenkins' wedding.

Susan's pupils constricted, then she said, "Julian, go t o the Jenkins residence now!"

"Okay." Julian nodded.

Both of them rushed out of the doorway.

Then, it began to rain. It was early winter and the rain was chilling to the bone.

Susan's eyes were red as she rambled, "The people from the nursing home said when Brother left, he wasn't wearing very warm clothing. He...he also wasn't carrying an umbrella. This rain..."

"Susan." Just as Susan was about to cry, Julian held her hands. "Calm down. We’ll be there soon."

"Of course, you can be calm. That’s not your brother!"

She could not help shooting back at him.

Julian’s expression changed slightly.

Once those words left her mouth, she felt guilty, so she gritted her teeth. "Sorry, I'm just too anxious."

He shot her a side look. "I'm generous, so I won't nitpick on that."

"Thank you." Susan could not smile even if she tried. She could not calm down as long as she could not find her brother. Especially with the rain that was only becoming heavier, her anxiety was worsening.

Finally, they arrived at the Jenkins residence.

Before the car could completely come to a stop, Susan had already dashed out. Julian chased after her with a n umbrella.

It was raining cats and dogs, but Susan recognized the person in the rain at once. She ran across like a madwoman. "Brother, why are you standing here? Come, let’s go."
