The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 96

Susan felt gooseflesh pebbled all over her skin. She had never seen such a shameless person before.

"What do you say?" Julian raised one of his brows, "If you don't kiss me now, I'll directly let you be the champion."

Susan did not know what to say. The way Julian threatened people was completely different from others.

But what if Julian really did it?

Even though the prize bonus was the main reason she participated in the competition, designing was her hobby and she wanted to be an interior designer in the future.

To be able to compete with experts from around the country, she could feel her blood boiling.

Not only did she want the result, but she also wanted t o experience the progress. Hence, she did not want Julian to abuse his power to help her secure first place.

"Are you going to kiss me or not?" Julian raised his brows, "I’ll give you three minutes to consider. After three minutes, you will be the champion of this competition."

Susan was startled by how shameless Julian was.

She gritted her teeth and slowly inched toward him.

Julian moved his face closer.

Susan gritted her teeth and planted a kiss on his cheek. However, before she could touch his cheek, Julian suddenly turned his face over and Susan's lips landed on his.

Julian smiled and deepened the kiss. Susan subconsciously re-positioned herself and reciprocated the kiss.

As she was kissing, she felt disappointed in herself. After being kissed by Julian so many times, her body had been conditioned to the point that it would not reject his kiss anymore.

"Well, I'll not let you go through the backdoor for the sake of this kiss,” Julian said in an undertone, his voice was deep and seductive.

Susan rolled her eyes inwardly. "Thank you, then.”

"You're welcome,” Julian replied with a smile.

This time, Susan could not help herself anymore and rolled her eyes in front of Julian.

When she thought about the interior design competition that was around the corner, her eyes glowed. She could not wait any longer to meet the experts from around the country.

'The final review is coming in another week. I must prepare myself so that I can face it in my best

condition!’ Susan thought inwardly, her eyes flaring with enthusiasm and dedication.

Julian could not peel his eyes away from Susan. Serious-mode Susan looked even more charming to him. He had never seen this side of her before, and it hit a certain spot in his heart. His heartbeat accelerated and he had never been so certain before that he loved the woman in front of him.

Initially, Susan planned to isolate herself from the outside world all of next week so that she could make preparations for the design competition. However, on the next day, she received a call from Madam Shaw.

Her attitude was as domineering as before as she instructed, "Take your identity card and marriage certificate and come to the Shaw Mansion.”

'What does she mean by this?'

Susan's hand trembled slightly.

Finally, it was here. Madam Shaw had found the perfect substitution to replace her.

She closed her eyes and began to reminisce about the things that happened ever since she moved to Seth's apartment. Her relationship with Julian had improved a lot. It made her almost forget that their marriage was actually on the verge of falling apart.

"Are you listening?" Madam Shaw pressed on impatiently when she did not hear anything from Susan.

"Yes," Susan took a deep breath, "I'll come over right now.” 1

No matter if it was marriage or divorce, she did not have any choice.
