The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 474

Susan nodded, agreeing to Julian's view.

Julian was a mere human too. He was not a god. His influence did not reach the States. To fight a terrorist organization that possibly had political background in the U S, he was never going to be a worthy opponent.

"With Luke's intelligence, he should be able to protect himself as long as we don't expose ourselves," Susan said. "Things will get easier once all of us are within the Canadian border."

"Susie, you're really concerned about him," Julian muttered in jealousy.

Susan rolled her eyes, not wanting to be bothered with his comment. She got up to enter the room.

Julian pulled her hand nervously. "Susie, I’ll keep an eye out for Luke and try to save him, but the matter between us..."

Susan looked down and asked faintly, "Is there a matter between us?"

"Susie, until when are you going to stay mad at me?" Julian looked at Susan helplessly. "I've done everything I can. Even when I've done wrong, you shouldn't just sentence me to death.”

With her lips pressed together, Susan kept quiet.

"Susie!" Julian tensed up.

After a long moment, Susan looked up, her gaze a complex emotion that Julian could not decipher. "I told you a long time ago that my love is either white or black.

There's no grey area. I have a fixation on fidelity. When you're with me, you can only have me in your heart.

"I always only have you in my heart." Julian was on edge.

"Is that so?" A mocking smile tugged Susan's lips. "I saw you guys when you met Willa the other day."

"Which day?" Julian was startled.

Since they were on the topic, Susan did not mind making things clearer. She said directly, "The day before Willa left, I saw you two meeting."

"That day?" Julian caught up and wore a glint of delight in his eyes. “Are you jealous, Susie?"

Susan was speechless.

Julian spoke up seriously, “There's nothing between Willa and me. She was just bidding me goodbye that day." "Is it?" Susan wore a half smile. "You're high school friends after all. It wouldn't nice if she didn't tell you she was leaving, huh?"

"Yeah," Julian responded naturally.

With a scoff, Susan went to her room and slammed the door close. Julian was still lying to her! He and Willa were not high school friends!

They promised each other that they wouldn't lie, but Julian easily betrayed their promise for Willa.

The heartache that Susan thought was numbed through her hectic schedule for two months crept up again.

"Susie, Susie, why are you angry again?” Julian rapped the door anxiously.

Susan hid her head behind the covers and pretended not to have heard him. After a long time of knocking, Julian could only give up

"Daddy, you failed again," Chesney sighed with a maturity that did not fit her age as she put down the wooden block that she was playing with.

“Failure is the key to success!" Julian replied seriously. "Your mommy is testing me."

"Sure." Chesney pursed her lips. "When are you going back this time?"

"I won’t be unless I get your mommy back." Julian sat down beside Chesney and played with her.
