Secretly Married: Don't Mess With The CEO's Wife novel Chapter 236

The Shaws.

Susan was amused when she saw Julian who was typing furiously in front of the computer.

“Why are you getting so worked up from the netizens? Are you too free?”

Susan blushed a little from how Julian was bragging online.

Julian arched a brow. “Worked up? I’m helping them develop a healthy and impeccable beauty standard.”

He continued click-clacking noisily on the keyboard.

Unable to stop him, Susan watched him for a while before taking a rest with a yawn.

As a result, Julian spent a large chunk of his time countering the netizens and his online reputation was thus polarized. Some people thought that he was silly as a CEO and could not take criticism. On the other hand, some people thought that he was adorable and down to earth. This contributed to a hundred thousand rise in his followers. His fans even created a fan club for the JuSan couple and started actively posting things about them.

Julian lurked to read how the fans lauded how he and Susan matched before happily shutting off his computer.

Ah, people with taste were still a majority in this world after all.

Julian and Susan became the most popular couple on the internet overnight while Joseph and Charlotte’s efforts went sour.

After days of Julian and Susan taking over the internet, Charlotte managed to crash several computers each day.

“Charlotte!” Luke furrowed his brows when he saw the cut up pieces of newspapers in the trash. “What are you trying to vent?”

“Luke!” Charlotte was resentful. “Didn’t you see the news? Susan Shelby, she’s taking away my limelight intentionally! Now everyone’s cheering JuSan, JuSan – no one cares about me and Joseph.”

“You need to calm down still!” Luke creased his brows into a frown. “What did Mom tell you? Have you forgotten about it so quickly? It’s just a small challenge and it got you this worked up?”

With Madam Jenkins mentioned, Charlotte bit her tongue. After a while, she was still begrudging. “But Susan went over the line…”

“Alright, these are only temporary,” Luke said. “Joseph is coming over tomorrow for the engagement. It’ll shift the attention away from them then.”

“Mn.” Charlotte barely looked appeased. “My wedding must be perfect!”

“Don’t worry about it.” Luke placated her.

“That b*tch Susan didn’t have a wedding when she got married to Julian. Even though they had a wedding photoshoot now, it still isn’t an official ceremony!” Charlotte scoffed and felt herself calm down.

The next day, Joseph came to ask for the marriage.

Both families agreed to hold the wedding one month later. To prepare Joseph’s venture in Ningcheng City, the wedding was going to be held in Ningcheng as well.

Joseph was affluent and had readied details of the wedding in advance. Taking a look at the checklist, it was a thin line past satisfactory for Charlotte. But she suddenly recalled Susan’s wedding photoshoot and asked, “Have you prepared the wedding gown?”

A gentlemanly smile was constantly seen on Joseph, matching his refined nature. The smile broadened a little when he heard Charlotte’s question. “Yes. It’s the work of an Italian master and it’ll arrive tomorrow.”

“Is it a one and only customized piece?” Charlotte pursued.

She heard that all four wedding dresses on Susan were the most renowned international brands and that they were designed specifically for her. Each of them was unique and could not be found elsewhere.

“There’s also this, a diamond and sapphire necklace. I auctioned for this personally a while back. This necklace is made up of hundreds of diamonds and the gem on it is a prime sapphire. It was sold for forty million dollars,” Joseph said.

Charlotte’s eyes gleamed.

The Jenkins were rich, but most of the money was tied to the company operations. To spend forty million on a necklace was impossible.

Joseph’s wealth was not just the word of mouth!

“Let me put it on for you too,” said Joseph.

“Okay.” Charlotte nodded shyly.

When Joseph put the necklace on her, Charlotte looked bashful, but she was dying to take a look at the mirror.

Seeing how she was overjoyed, there was a hint of derision in Joseph’s eyes but he covered it well and still looked adoring on the outside.

“For our engagement today, I’ve prepared a grand gift for Charlotte other than the two pieces of jewelry,” Joseph said with a smile.

“A grand gift?” Charlotte’s eyes shined even brighter.

Joseph chuckled and presented a newspaper, pointing at the corner.

“This is…” Charlotte could not help frowning when she looked at the reported content.
