The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 73

Jacob still stood there in a daze.

Julian never thought that Madam Shaw would react like that all of a sudden. He became nervous.

It was terrible!

Julian wanted to help and block the attack for Jacob, but he soon felt an excruciating pain the minute he raised his hand.

The ashtray was about to hit Jacob when all of a sudden a figure rushed to the scene and stood in front of Jacob.

A loud smash was heard.

The ashtray knocked against the person's forehead harshly.

Madam Shaw was stunned.

Julian was anxious too.

"Susie!" Julian rushed toward her spontaneously.

Susan's forehead was smashed heavily by the ashtray. Soon, there were bruises on her forehead.

"Are you okay?" Julian became quite worried about her.

"It's fine. It won't kill me." Susan tilted her head and looked at Jacob. "Brother, you're not hurt, are you?"

"No." Jacob looked at Susan. He felt sad for her.

He stretched his hand out and touched the bruises on her forehead softly.

Susan drew in a cold breath in spite of herself.

"Does it hurt badly?" Jacob was quite worried about her.

"No." Susan broke into a bright smile. "Brother, you don't have to worry about me. It doesn't hurt at all. I was just joking with you just now."

Jacob looked at Susan quietly. But he seemed to feel a lot of complicated feelings at that moment.

"Brother, can you please return to the room first? I'll come and meet you later," Susan said gently.

"But there’s a villain here." Jacob looked toward Madam Shaw.

'Villain?'

Madam Shaw did not manage to calm herself down, and she was angered again. "Do I look like a villain? Don't you know who paid for your medical fees? If it wasn't for me, you'd be dead by now. How dare you claim that I’m a villain? You're such an ungrateful and vicious person.”

Jacob seemed to understand what she said vaguely. H e pursed his lips tightly and clenched his fists gradually.

Madam Shaw sneered coldly. "Why? Do you still want t o beat me up?” "Brother." Susan grabbed his hand and made him release the tension around his fists. She looked at Jacob seriously, "Brother, just go back to your room first. Wait for me to deal with the things here. After that, I’ll come and be with you. You must trust that I'm able to face everything here."

Jacob fixed his eyes at Susan.

Susan gave him a determined look.

Then, Jacob nodded slowly.

Susan broke into a faint smile and said to Mama Jean, "Mama Jean, please help bring my brother back to his room."

Mama Jean was indeed shocked as she watched the scene before her just now. She was just too eager to leave at that particular moment.

After Jacob left, Susan turned to look at Madam Shaw.

"Now that you're here, we need to discuss something properly," Madam Shaw said coldly.

"Sure." Susan nodded. She sat across from Madam Shaw calmly. "What do you want to talk about, mom?"

"Don't you address me as your mom. I can’t stand it," Madam Shaw said pointedly.

Susan pursed her lips and changed the way she addressed her. "Then, what do you want to talk about, Madam Shaw?"

Madam Shaw replied coldly. "It's easy. I'm afraid that you can’t stay in our Shaw family anymore given what you’ve done. It’s best if you end the marriage with Julian."

'Divorce...'

Susan had mentally prepared herself for that. She glanced at Julian quietly.

Julian remained cold and solemn. He said without any hesitation, "I disagree."
