"What if I don't want to?" Susan Shelby said coldly.
Julian Shaw suppressed the sadness in his heart and said in an icy cold manner," There’s a small portion of assets that I've notarized. It can't be transferred to anybody else within 50 years. This portion of assets is for you, Chessie, and Luca which is enough for all of you to live a good life. With this, you should be satisfied. The rest of the assets never belonged to you since the start. If you still have a sense of shame, you should give it back."
Susan had obviously mentally prepared herself over and over again and yet the color of her face still turned pale ever so slightly beyond her control.
Heh-heh. So it turned out that she was actually a woman with no sense of shame.
Julian felt his heart wrenched in pain as he looked at her in her current state. He wished that he could stop the plan and wrap his arms around this woman straightforwardly.
Yet, he was still standing on the same spot without budging after all.
"Give it back?" Susan laughed. "So, what you're saying is the same as Willa. You're leaving these assets to your child?"
"It's a boy, so my assets are supposed to be passed down to him," Julian spoke against his will.
"I see." Susan nodded and looked at him calmly. "In the end, you're the same kind of person as your mother. It’s only that she's shameless on the front while you hide your
shamelessness. Julian Shaw, I've been deceived.”
Julian felt his heart trembling in pain but he still put up a strong face and said, "I don’t want to engage in nonsensical talk with you anymore. Just tell me, are you going to give those things back?"
Susan stood up at once. It felt as if Julian could see the blazing flame in her eyes. ' You want me to give it back?! Who do you think you are! Julian, you're the one who refused to get a divorce previously and dragged me on until now. It was you who insisted on pushing over those things to me and now you're going back on your word? It's too late. Everything I have is for Chessie and Luca. That b*st*rd love son of yoursdon’t even think about it!"
"Susan, stop calling him b*st*rd." Julian raised his arm.
"Mommy!"
Meanwhile, a weak voice was heard.
The door of the closet opened up with Chessie walking out of it with a ghastly pale face.
Chessie! What was she doing here!
Susan’s feet shuffled subconsciously.
Julian was using the action of raising his arm to express his anger supposedly yet he never thought that he would actually hit Susan.
Yet, Chessie's sudden appearance and Susan's change of position had actually made her slam into Julian’s palm.
However, it looked just like Julian was hitting Susan in rage.
He gave her a slap.
Susan froze.
Julian froze.
Chessie and Luca standing behind her froze as well.
A ghastly silence emerged in the room.
Susan lowered her head and did not speak.
Julian felt a suffocating pain in his heart at this very moment.
His hands...had actually hit Susan.
He had actually slapped Susan!
Julian was shaking all over.
"Susie..." Julian could not stand it anymore. He almost wanted to step forward to hold Susan in his arms.
Yet, Susan took a few steps back in silence.
Chessie and Luca had already run over to stand on Susan's sides. Both of them were staring at Julian vigilantly.
A streak of tears streamed down Chessie's delicate face. She refused to look at Julian even but she said to Susan, "Mommy, give those things back to him. I don’t want it.”
