The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 406

"Hmm?” Susan Shelby shot a confused glance at Julian. “Three years have passed? Are you counting from... the time Mr. Clark committed suicide? Is there any special significance to these three years?"

"No.” Julian Shaw shook his head.

The five-year deadline had been weighing down his chest heavily all this time.

He wanted to force himself to stop working as well and keep Susan company by giving her his full attention.

However, he could not.

The biggest reason he had been working so hard over the years was not to develop the company.

It was to ensure that he possessed an even more powerful influence in the world.

If he could not develop an antidote just by relying on the strength of Canada itself, then he would gather the strength of the entire world.

The Errol Virus Project had been given a different name and was recruiting the most outstanding experts secretly around the world.

There were many outstanding experts in this industry, but they were all working for the government.

Julian used his business tactics to form connections with the governments of different countries so that they would consent to send their experts to take part i n this project. There were already more than 10 first-rate countries that had sent their experts to Canada over the years.

Had it not been for StarTech Co.’s global success, the governments of those countries would not have supported the project either.

There was no telling how much hard work and effort Julian had put in just to be able to negotiate with other countries and be successful at it despite his status as a businessman.

Anything and everything he did, including expanding StarTech Co. and elevating his influence globally, was meant to increase the progress of the antidote research.

There had been some achievements in the past three years.

For example, the PA Virus that had once rendered the entire world helpless in the past had already been cracked. Even though the difficulty of cracking the mutated PA Virus in the Errol Virus was 100 times higher than cracking the PA Virus, this was an immense improvement at the very least.

What a pity that the progress was still too slow. It was really slow.

At this thought, Julian could not help hugging Susan

tighter.

"Why are you behaving strangely today?” Susan looked up at Julian in confusion.

Julian shook his head and then diverted the topic of the conversation. "It's Chessie's birthday in one week. Let's throw her a nice celebration this year."

"Alright." Just as expected, Susan's attention was diverted at the mention of Chessie. She chuckled and said, "Chessie has been talking about it for some time. She has a few good friends that she wants to invite to her party."

"She's made good friends already?" The corners of Julian's lips curled into a faint smile.

Chessie had just started attending kindergarten this year. When she had first enrolled, she had cried and shouted to express her reluctance to go, but it had only been a few months and she had already made some good friends.

"Hmm." Susan nodded and could not help laughing.

She felt that time was really passing quickly.

It felt like Chessie had still been a tiny infant in her arms yesterday, yet today, she was already capable of running, jumping about, and making friends.

More and more people were entering Chessie's life. Sooner or later, the day would come when she left them and had a brand new life that belonged to herself. At the thought of this, Susan felt a little sad.

Julian hugged her as if he could read Susie's thoughts. He smiled and said, "You'll still have me."

Susan could not help chuckling.

Yes, she still had Julian.

The moonlight elongated their tightly-hugging silhouettes. The image appeared so harmonious yet wonderful.

In the next few days, Julian took some time off and kept Chesney Shaw company. It made Chessie feel delighted beyond comparison.
