Secretly Married: Don't Mess With The CEO's Wife novel Chapter 507

“Long time no see.” Luke had calmed down as well.

He had hated and resented Mandy before. However, when he looked back at those events, he realized that everything had happened for a reason. He was the one who should be held responsible. He was the one who had set the fire in the beginning. All Mandy had done was merely add fuel to the fire.

Therefore, the hate he had felt for her had lessened day by day. By the time he saw her again, he did not feel hate anymore.

“You…” Mandy’s eyes were filled with a myriad of complex emotions. There were plenty of questions in her mind. She wanted to know where he had been over the years. She wanted to know what kind of trouble he had run into. She wanted to know why he would suddenly return to Canada and why he would emerge from a police station.

All these questions kept swirling in Mandy’s head. In the end, she just asked, “How are you?”

After all, none of those questions mattered anymore. At the end of the day, she just wanted to know how he had been all these years until she had met up with him.

The emotion in Mandy’s eyes was too heavy, and Luke could not help pressing his lips into a thin, fine line. It took him a long while to respond to her question. “I’m fine. How about you?”

“Are you asking me?” They were merely a few words, so Mandy had no idea why her eyes began to turn red around the rims.

She was not fine. She had suffered a lot in the past few years.

However, the moment Luke asked how she was, she felt that all her suffering had been worth it.

“Yes, I’m asking you,” Luke replied. There were a plethora of complicated expressions on his face. “How are you doing? I heard you didn’t return to the Ainsleys. And… How is our kid? Is he still… there?”

Mandy let out a soft laugh. “Me? Of course I’m fine. I had a fight with my parents, so I ran away. Don’t worry, though, I brought along enough cash and I have been traveling around the world all these years. As for our kid…”

Mandy lowered her gaze and continued speaking. “You didn’t like the kid, so there was no use in keeping him. He was not born into this world in the end.”

Mandy was talking calmly, and Susan could not help but look at her with a confused gaze.

The truth was very different from what Mandy had said.

She had gone through a lot in the past few years, and Lucas had grown up into an adorable little boy.

However, since she had promised Mandy that she would help her keep those secrets from Luke, she could only remain silent.

“Is… it…” Luke relapsed into a trance.

His son had died before he had even been brought into this world?

Indeed, he had not expected to have a kid at all at the time. However, he and the kid had the same blood flowing through their veins. When he heard that the kid was gone, his heart still trembled a little.

“Let’s find a quiet place to talk,” Susan suggested.

“Okay.” Both Luke and Mandy assented.

The three of them turned around and attempted to leave.

At the same time, Julian started walking toward them after parking his car.

He felt satisfied when he saw Luke and Mandy walking side by side while Susan maintained some distance from Luke.

Then, the satisfaction in his eyes was soon replaced by fear.

Just as the three of them spun around, the police officer who had escorted Luke suddenly raised his gun.

The muzzle of the gun was pointed toward Susan, and that person sensed Julian’s gaze. He was not nervous at all. What’s more, he was even in the mood to offer a contorted smile to Julian.

“Susie!” Julian shouted out frantically and dashed toward Susan at his top speed.

‘What happened? Why is Julian acting so strangely?’

Susan was startled when she heard Julian shouting her name. As she was lost at sea, she heard the click of a trigger behind her.

She turned around blankly and saw a pistol pointing at her from not far away.

The person who had pulled the trigger was Julian.

He had finally made it in time and had shot and killed the man behind them.

“Susie, are you alright?” Julian walked up to Susan and pulled her over.

Susan shook her head. Her body was still shaking uncontrollably from the incident as she said, “I’m fine, but Luke…”

“Erm, I’m fine too.” Luke was surprised as well.

The man had already pulled the trigger before Julian had shot him.

Even though he was dead now, what about the bullet he had fired before?

At that moment, a heavy muffled sound echoed and drew everyone’s attention to it.

A flash of disbelief crossed Susan’s eyes as she shouted, “Mandy?”

The person lying on the ground right now was none other than Mandy.

Blood was gushing out of Mandy’s chest.

Obviously, the person who had taken the shot was Mandy.

“Mandy!” Susan dashed forward and half-held her up from the ground. Her voice was shaking as she said, “Quick, Julian, take her to the hospital.”

Julian came back to his senses very soon. He rushed over and scooped Mandy up from the ground without any hesitation. Then, he dashed toward his car.

He had never had a good impression of Mandy. Even though she had cancer and Susan had taken pity on her, his impression of her had remained the same.

However, Mandy had saved Susan right now, and Julian finally changed his opinion about the woman.
