The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 412

Upon returning to the house, Julian Shaw and Susan Shelby put Chesney Shaw down on her bed before going downstairs with gentle movements.

Madam Shaw insisted on staying with them. It was already midnight, so they could not kick her out this late. Susan could only order the servants to tidy up the guest room and have Madam Shaw stay there.

After bustling about and doing all this, Julian and Susan finally had time for solitude.

Julian wrapped his arm around Susan’s shoulder and said apologetically, "Susie, I'll try to figure out a way to persuade mom to live elsewhere tomorrow."

Susan heaved a sigh. "No need for that. Mom is aging and she doesn't have any close friends. Let her stay so we can look after her too. As long as she doesn't harm Chessie anymore, I believe that I’ll be able to coexist with her. However, I will retaliate if she keeps talking nonsense in front of Chessie, Julian."

Julian rubbed her head. "Chessie can’t be aggrieved, s o the same should apply to you too. If mom can't control her temper, even if I am considered an unfilial child, I won’t keep her here either."

Susan was already content that Julian was standing b y her. After all, Madam Shaw was still Julian's mother. What could he do?

Susan said in a gentle voice, "Let's monitor the situation for the next few days. If we can coexist, so be it. If we can't, I still have the contract with me. We should be able to use it for legal effect, right?”

“Sorry for getting you in trouble." Julian gave her a soft peck on the forehead.

The next day, early in the morning...

When Julian and Susan went downstairs, they discovered that the living room was already bustling.

Luna Harris and Oliver Wright were there early in the morning. A large pile of luggage was located in the living room.

"Mom, what's going on?" Susan could not help asking.

"Oh, Susie." Luna smiled at Susan. "Here’s the thing. Your brother is on a long leave now. He has nowhere else to go so I brought him to your place for vacation. I t won't be any trouble, right?"

"It's no trouble at all," Susan said with a hint of confusion. "But if he's on vacation, why aren't you traveling somewhere further away?"

The Shaws and the Wrights lived only a half-hour car drive apart. Besides, both houses were right in the center of the city. How was such a close trip considered a good vacation?

"I like your place." Oliver immediately continued the conversation resolutely. "Susie, you must take me."

"That's easy. We'll just tidy up a guest room for you." While Susan was still confused, Julian immediately accepted the task.

"Alright, then I shall bring the luggage up," said Oliver while chuckling before he headed upstairs right away.

"He..." Susan looked at Julian in confusion.

Julian nudged Susan's forehead and then leaned close to Susan’s ear and whispered, "Your brother is not here for vacation. He is scared that you will be mistreated."

Susan blushed for a while, as her ear was tickled by Julian’s warm breath. Only then did she react and understand Julian's statement.

She immediately had no idea whether to laugh or cry. She was about to persuade Luna to take her brother home when Luna stood up. "That’s all. Thank you for going to the trouble to care for Oliver during this period."

"Don't worry." Julian understood his mother-in-law's thoughts. He did not try to expose her. He just smiled and accepted the task.

Julian was very compliant with the game, so Luna left fully satisfied.

It was Oliver's day off, so he stayed in the house all day.

From the moment Madam Shaw came downstairs, he watched her every move with his bright piercing eyes.

Madam Shaw behaved as obediently as a rabbit from day to night at the thought of the Wrights being savage and cruel to her.

She did not make things difficult for Susan, as she did not even have the courage to speak to Susan in a louder voice.

Chesney was amused by this. She could not help telling Susan in secret, "Mommy, don't Uncle Oliver's eyes look tired? He hasn't blinked even once in a very long time."

Susan smiled and took out some legos for Chesney to play with before she walked over to Oliver.
