The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 510

"That person was from the Dark Night Agency?" Susan Shelby was rather astonished.

"Julian hasn’t told you yet, right?" said Luke Jenkins. "I believe that he did not because he was afraid you would worry too much. However, I believe that you should know this."

Susan nodded, feeling even more curious in her heart. "But... why did the person from the Dark Night Agency want to deal with me?"

The so-called Dark Night Agency had suffered a huge loss due to Luke once in the past. It was fully understandable why they'd wanted to deal with Luke.

However, why had that person actually pointed his gun at Susan at the final moment?

Had he mistaken her for someone else?

That was impossible.

A powerful assassin sent from a terrifying agency like this would not make such a lowly mistake.

In other words, someone in the Dark Night Agency hated her more than Luke.

Susan frowned and pondered this. Something just did not add up.

"I don't have many details on this matter either. All in all, you need to be careful, Susie. However, you have the Shaws and the Wrights with you, so they'll keep you protected anyhow,” said Luke softly. "As for me . I'm afraid that I won't be of much help."

Luke's voice sounded dejected. Susan pursed her lips but did not speak.

Mandy Ainsley had been in love with Luke, yet Luke loved her instead.

At that very moment, Susan felt incriminated for some unknown reason.

"Susie, I'm leaving,” Luke suddenly said after they sat there for a while.

"Leaving? Where are you doing?" Susan could not help asking.

Luke smiled. "I'm going to travel around. I still have some savings and I figured that I wouldn't be able to spend it all in my lifetime. I haven’t been enjoying life over the years. Therefore, I want to travel around and enjoy the view."

"That’s great." Susan nodded. "However, the people from the Dark Night Agency will certainly still resent you, so do take precautions.”

"I will.” Luke hesitated for a moment before he said, "Susie, did you turn Mandy's ashes into a diamond?”

"Yes,” Susan admitted right away.

"Can you please...” It felt as if Luke was conflicted, yet he still said, "Can you please give me the diamond for safekeeping?"

Susan took a glance at Luke.

Had it not been for Lucas Jenkins, she would have consented to Luke's request.

However, she could not now.

Lucas deserved to keep the only consolation that Mandy had left in this world more than Luke.

"I'm sorry, but I want to keep it as memorabilia myself.” Susan rejected him on the spot in a straightforward manner. "Alright then.” Luke did not insist. He shot a deep glance at Susan in the end before saying, "Goodbye, Susie."

"Goodbye,” said Susan softly.

Upon exiting the cafe, Luke left just like that.

He had bidden her farewell with just a goodbye. Susan did not know that the next time they met would be after a very, very long time.

Julian Shaw was already waiting at the door.

He looked at Susan and did not inquire further. He just took Susan's hand naturally.

It was early spring now, so the weather was still slightly cold. Julian rubbed Susan's hand to keep her warm casually.

Upon seeing his serious look, Susan could not help asking, "Julian, aren't you going to ask me what Luke and I talked about?"

"What did you talk about?” asked Julian hastily.

Julian could not help rolling her eyes. "Can you at least pretend that you don't care?"

Julian was immediately distressed. "I've been constantly pretending. It was you who prompted me to ask...”

Susan was rendered speechless for a while before she said softly, "He wanted the diamond with Mandy's ashes."

“Did you give it to him?" Julian raised an eyebrow.
