Secretly Married: Don't Mess With The CEO's Wife novel Chapter 196

Because of what? Susan Shelby looked at Julian Shaw in confusion.

Julian stared at her with a deep gaze. “That is because I am Little Leaf.”

Susan was stunned for a long while, then she suddenly burst out laughing. “Julian, stop joking.”

Julian was Little Leaf? That must be some international joke!

Julian’s brows twitched once involuntarily as he witnessed Susan’s incredulousness. He had been deliberating for a long time and hoped to be melodramatic for a little while.

As a result, Susan asked him to stop joking?

The woman spoiled the surprise!

Julian pulled a long face and bent over to pick up Princess Susan right away.

Then, he turned his head to take a glance at the unconscious Wayne Lewis with an icy cold gaze.

“Mr. Shaw.” Two bodyguards clad in black outfits guarded the door.

Julian walked outside with Susan in his arms at once. Then, he said, “Seize that man inside the house and take him back to Ningcheng City.”

“Yes,” answered the security guard.

“Julian, he didn’t really manage to have his way,” Susan heaved a sigh. “He’s a friend of mine from my childhood after all. Let him go. It’s fine as long as he doesn’t appear again in eternity.”

The appearance of this man had ruined her childhood.

However, this man was still Little Leaf after all. Susan did not want him to meet a tragic end for the sake of their childhood friendship.

“Foolish woman.” Julian could not help glaring at Susan.

Susan had yet to react to the situation at this point.

“You…” Susan was displeased. “Yes, I’m foolish. I’m so foolish so why are you still here looking for me? Go and see Isabelle instead. She’s the smartest one!”

The more Susan spoke, the angrier she became. In the end, she began struggling in Julian’s arms. “Put me down!”

Julian held her even tighter. “Put you down? Don’t even think about it in your lifetime!”

“Why? You’re over there having a good time mingling with Isabelle and you’re here to see me. Could it be that you’re trying to engage in a polygamous relationship?” Susan was even more infuriated. She was so angry that she could not refrain from biting Julian’s hand.

Julian held back the urge to grunt. His voice sounded even more gentle. “Susie, Isabelle is the obstacle between us. The reason why I approached Isabelle earlier was to investigate something.”

“What thing is that!” Susan refused to believe Julian’s explanation.

After all, seeing is believing.

“Do you still remember our promise from twenty years ago?” Julian stared at Susan with a deep gaze.

Our promise from twenty years ago?

Susan was stunned. It was the 20-year-old promise between her and Little Leaf though.

How did Julian...learn about this matter?

Julian said right away, “I went to the secret base and waited for a very long time that day. Yet, you didn’t come. The person who came was Isabelle Shelby.”

“You you you you…” Shock flashed past Susan’s eyes.

He said everything he had to say. Julian… Could it be that he really was Little Leaf?

“I had a car accident that day. Thus, I sent Isabelle to go on my behalf. Isabelle told me that Little Leaf didn’t come at all,” said Susan anxiously.

At the time, they were only about ten years old!

Isabelle had actually begun scheming at the age of ten?

Who would have thought of that?

“The damned woman Isabelle is genuinely full of schemes.” A cold glint flashed past Julian’s eyes. “This time, I believed that the man who pretended to be Little Leaf must have told you many details of the time we spent together in the past, right?”

“Yes.” Susan’s mind was already in a chaotic mess so she could only nod continuously.

“Other than ourselves, the only person who knows those details can only be Isabelle.” Julian sneered once. “Isabelle sent this man.”

Susan was already at a loss for words!

Wayne was actually sent by Isabelle as well.

Had she not hit Wayne until he was unconscious, the scene that Julian witnessed when he came in…

Isabelle was simply a toxic, vicious person.

Susan could not help shuddering at the thought of her feigned weak appearance.

“She… I… I always thought that Yvonne was the evilest person. Yet, I didn’t expect Isabelle to be actually more malicious than Yvonne by a thousand times in secret.” Susan’s lips were trembling.

“Don’t worry, Susie. She will pay for her maliciousness,” said Julian coldly.

Susan turned her head to the side and took a glance at Julian. She felt an ineffable feeling in her heart.

Everything was clarified now…

So, Little Leaf was Julian Shaw.
