The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 65

"When I was in university, I was... Then, I became..." Seth continued to blabber on and on.

Jacob paid him no heed as he continued to enjoy his meal.

"Is your friend... Won’t he feel tired?" Susan took a look at the clock and realized that Seth had been talking for almost 30 minutes straight.

"He is used to it," Julian replied calmly.

Susan did not know what to say. This was the first time she came across a man who could talk so much i n her life.

All of a sudden, Jacob put down his spoon and fork." Are you finally going to accept me as your apprentice?" Seth's eyes shone as he exclaimed, a triumphant expression flashed across his face. After all, nobody would say no to him when he played his trump card by talking nonstop.

Just when Seth thought Jacob was about to say something to him, he looked straight at Susan and said, "I'm full."

"Good job, Jacob," Susan responded with a smile and planted a kiss on his cheek. 1

Jacob grinned back in return. Then, just as he was about to return to his seat, Susan called out, "Don't sit

down after eating, Jacob."

Jacob nodded obediently. He stood beside the desk, picked up a newspaper, and started reading it.

Seth was stunned. He turned to Susan and stammered, "Susan, your brother...”

Susan cast Seth a wry smile before explaining, "I'm sorry, but my brother has a screw loose in his brain. H e is like a kid, so I'm certain that he did not get anything that you told him."

"I see," replied Seth. He threw a gaze towards Jacob's direction, a hint of surprise crossed his face.

He believed in what Susan had said. After all, she had no reason to make such a thing up. Although Jacob was extraordinarily gifted, he was flawed. Perhaps this was what they used to say, "When God gives you something, He will take another thing away from you."

"I see you didn't eat much just now. The food has turned cold, let me warm them up for you," said Susan softly.

"It's okay. I can eat like this," answered Seth. As he set his eyes on the last Buffalo wing, Julian beat him to it.

Then, he began enjoying the wings gracefully as Seth watched on in bewilderment.

"You, you, you..." Seth looked at him, still surprised at what had just transpired, "I’m your guest, Julian! Is this how you treat your guest?” "Susie made these Buffalo wings. You’re not qualified t o eat them," Julian said expressionlessly.

Seth broke out in rage, "Why am I not qualified to eat the Buffalo wings that Susan made?"

However, Julian was not going to answer that question. He took his time and leisurely finished the Buffalo wing.

Taking on a hurt expression, Seth turned to Susan and whined his grievance, "Susan, your husband is bullying me. Can't you do something about it?"

Susan cleared her throat to dismiss her embarrassment. Then, she replied, "I'll make it for you again the next time you come."

Seth was moved. Tears began to well in his eyes as he said, "You’re so nice, Susan. You're too good for Julian. He doesn't deserve you. Actually, I'm pretty handsome as well. Besides, I'm young and promising, so why don't you..."

"Keep your mouth shut and finish your meal," glowered Julian as he stuffed a piece of lobster into Seth's mouth, pushing the rest of Seth's sentence to his stomach pit.

By the time Seth finished chewing the lobster, he lifted his head and saw Julian was looking at him with another piece in his hand. Not wanting to choke t o his death, he put his hand up in surrender. "Okay, okay, I'll keep quiet starting from now on." 1

It was only then that Julian smiled and put down his fork.

Susan let out a chuckle after she witnessed the fun interaction between Julian and Seth. This was the first time she saw Julian being so mischievous and fun around people.

After they filled their stomachs, Seth continued his quest to conquer Jacob with his tongue. However, it seemed that he had finally met his Waterloo. No matter how much he talked to him, he just gave him the cold shoulder.

"I surrender, Susan. Your brother is just like a brick wall. No matter how much I talk to him, he just won't give me any response," Seth sighed dejectedly.
