The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 593

"Damn it!" Julius’ countenance became dark when he saw the chopper in the sky.

According to his calculations, they would be out of this forest in seven days.

However, he had not expected that the others would go so far as to deploy choppers to search for them. Even though the choppers could not cover the entire forest, they had a wide aerial vision.

Therefore, he had to be extra careful with every step he took and think of the consequences if it took him even longer to walk some distance.

Initially, it would only take him one day to go from point A to point B, but it now took him three to four days.

The silver lining was that he had prepared many provisions in advance and put them in various caves along the road. Otherwise, he would have already starved to death.

“You said you would let us go after seven days. Is your promise still valid?" Susan could not help asking.

Julius replied with a cold expression, "It would be valid if that f eking stupid chopper was not here. If I can't get out of here, you two are going down with me."

Julius' expression was vile. Susan and Julian exchanged a glance and stayed silent.

Julius was getting more and more cautious. He only allowed them to roam freely in the cave. He would tie their hands up and put gags into their mouths whenever they were on the move, as he was afraid that they might alarm the rescue team.

Julian and Susan had to admit that Julius was indeed very capable. Even though their movements were sluggish, as they had to be mindful of every step they took, they did not get discovered by the chopper or the rescue team.

This was good news for Julius, but not for Julian and Susan. The two of them were getting more and more worried.

Considering their situation, they had no clue when they would get out of there.

They had gone off the grid for so long that they reckoned that their families would be worried sick about them.

However, there was nothing they could do.

A week had passed, and they had found nothing.

Two weeks had passed, and the result was the same.

They did not get any intel whatsoever about Susan and Julian's whereabouts. Even George and Oliver could not help feeling despair.

Even if they had survived the fall, they would have starved to death after such a long time.

Were Julian and Susan still alive? They did not know, and their confidence, which had started out strong, was getting weaker and weaker as time passed.

Even George and Oliver thought like that, let alone Luna.

She washed her face with tears every day and kept wasting away rapidly.

If it were not for Anna and Serenity, she would have collapsed already.

Chesney and Lucas had been asking about Susan as well.

However, none of the Wrights had the guts to tell them the truth. They could only shrug them off by telling them that Susan had traveled to a faraway place and would return very soon.

Two more weeks flitted by.

“Granny, it's been a month. Why hasn't mommy returned yet?" Chesney asked as she looked eagerly at Luna.

It took Luna a lot of effort not to cry in front of Chesney as she said softly, "Your mommy is busy with work."

"But in the past, mommy would call Chessie no matter how busy she was." Chesney refused to accept this excuse. She watched Luna with dewy eyes as she said," Mommy doesn’t want Chessie anymore? Just like daddy doesn't want me?"

Luna could only hold her tears back at last. She could not utter a single word anymore as she turned her head sideways.

"What happened, granny?" Chessie asked dumbfoundedly.

Lucas, who was more observant than Chesney, asked, "Are you crying, granny?"

"No, no. Granny is not crying,” Anna hastily chimed in, ended the conversation. Her voice was shaking a little as she added," Chessie, Luca, granny has not been feeling well lately, so can we talk about your mommy some other time?"

Chesney and Lucas were sensible children. Even though they missed Susan a lot, since Luna did not feel well, they nodded obediently.
