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

Chapter 189 Neighbor

"That's..." Yvonne Shelby muttered, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it."

She called Julian Shaw over and over again, yet no one picked it up.

Realizing something, Mr. Shelby could not help asking in panic, "Isa, the cover is blown? How did the cover get blown!”

"You should ask Yvonne," said Isabelle Shelby through her clenched teeth.

Her painstaking scheme fell through in just a day. If she had a knife with her now, perhaps she might even stab Yvonne to death.

Mr. Shelby immediately entered the house and shouted aloud to interrogate Yvonne.

Not long after that, Yvonne's agonizing screams were heard and also the sound of Mr. Shelby whipping someone with his belt.

Yvonne was whipped tragically but Isabelle was utterly not in the mood to pay attention to this.

Her lips were trembling involuntarily.

Julian was a person not to be trifled with. She bullied him in such a manner so he would certainly come back seeking revenge.

The incident with the contract was only his first step. He would still be taking the second step and then the third step. He would never stop until she and the Shelby family were completely destroyed.

"I'll still have another chance, I'll still have another chance," muttered Isabelle continuously.

All of a sudden, her eyes lit up.

Madam Shaw!

Right, she wanted to meet Madam Shaw.

Madam Shaw liked her very much, so she would certainly help her.

Isabelle stood up from the ground and charged the outside.

At present, she still considered herself to be a little lucky in her heart.

It was great that Susan Shelby left coincidentally at the time Julian discovered the truth.

It was great that Isabelle had already planned an escape route in advance. By now, the person should have already begun to take action.

As long as Susan was destroyed and she gained Madam Shaw's support, she could still stand a chance.

In a remote, peaceful town, Susan rented a comfortable small house and got busy tidying up the place.

The house was very small such that it was only the size of a toilet in the villa. However, the small size made it more convenient to tidy up the place.

When she was done tidying up the house, Susan bought some daily necessities and added it to the house before she placed a small potted flower plant at the windowsill at last.

The scent of life revived the air at once.

Susan smiled to herself for a while, then she turned on her phone and called Jacob Shelby. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

She promised her older brother that she would report her safety to him when she arrived.

The video call was picked up soon. Jacob’s radiant face appeared on the display.

Susan could not help chuckling. "Jacob, I'm here and I've already settled down. It's pretty good here. The air smells fresh, the scene looks pretty good and it's also very quiet here..."

Jacob was about to speak when Julian suddenly snatched the phone. "Susie, I..."

Julian! Susan's gaze changed drastically. Why was he there as well!

Susan clenched her teeth and hung up the call subconsciously.

She really did not feel like facing Julian now.

Julian was about to speak when the call was already hung up on the other hand right away.

"Susan hung up..." Seth Leeds took a sympathetic glance at Julian. "Young Master Shaw, what have you done to offend Susan actually?"

In his mind, Susan was obviously a gentle-mannered, thoughtful person! What did Julian do to anger her so much that she had not only ran away from home but also refused to even see him!

"Seth, Susan just made the video call which leaves behind some clues. I believe that you should be able to find her current location based on that." Julian clenched his jaw.

"It's doable." Seth said naturally, "Jacob, please borrow me your phone for a moment. I'd like to check where Susan is sending the video call to you from."

Jacob grunted once, yet he picked up the phone and began tapping away at once.

"What are you doing, Jacob?" Seth asked, "Are you checking it yourself? Alright, alright, I’ll leave that to you. Even though your standards are a little lower than mine, yet..."

Seth chattered away incessantly.

A few minutes later, Jacob held up his phone.

"Do you know where her location is?" Julian could not help staring at Jacob eagerly.

"Yes." Jacob nodded.

He found Susan's specific location by tracing her tracks. Moreover, he had also erased the traces conveniently after he checked it! Seth would not be able to check anymore from now on.

"Where is she?" Julian could feel his heart racing.

"I won't tell you." Jacob said straightforwardly, "Susie said that I’m not allowed to tell you."

As he was speaking, Jacob could not help being infuriated. "Moreover, had it not been you, Susie and I could’ve chatted for a little longer. Now that Susie is angry, she may even refuse to keep in touch with me."

"Jacob, I really have something very important to tell Susie. She is angry with me now, yet everything will get better after I’m done explaining to her," said Julian.

"I only listen to Susie," said Jacob stubbornly.

Julian tried to pester Jacob for a long while and Seth joined in to persuade him as well but Jacob was still relentless.

In the end, Julian made the decision to stay straightforwardly. If Susan could contact Jacob once, she would certainly do it twice and thrice. He could seize the opportunity to explain to her anyhow.

In the room, Susan kept the phone and then could not help biting her lower lip.

She had already taken the initiative to give Julian the means to be together with her. Why did he refuse to look for Isabelle but instead insisted on seeing her?

Could it be that he wanted to enjoy polygamy?

At the thought of this, Susan could not help feeling furious.

She changed to a new phone and sim card recently. If Julian were to see that, could it be that she needed to change to another new phone and sim card again?

Susan turned off the phone right away and felt rather gloomy in her heart.

She wanted to take a stroll outside to ease her mind yet the ghost of Julian still lingered.

Just as Susan was feeling unhappy, the sound of someone knocking on her door was heard suddenly.

She had just moved into the house. Who would knock on her door?

Susan was still very vigilant because she was out of town all by herself. She picked up a small- sized electroshock weapon and hid it behind her before she opened the door.

A man with a gentle smile stood outside the door." Hello, have you just moved in recently as well?"

"As well?" Susan felt rather astonished.

The man chuckled. "I just moved in today as well. I'm staying next door now. We are neighbors."

"Oh." Susan's vigilance eased a little but her body remained tense.

The man could see that she was nervous so he could not help chuckling, "I'm just here to say hi to you. If you need help with anything, you can find me next door."

"Sure, thank you," answered Susan courteously.

The man came in a baffling manner and left in a baffling manner. Susan exhaled a breath of relief and did not take that incident to heart.

In the evening, she saw the man again when she came back from grocery shopping. He was seated on the stone drawing on a drawing board.

Susan was about to walk past the man when he had already seen her. He waved his hand at Susan and said smilingly, "We’ve met again, what a coincidence."

He greeted her right away so Susan could only walk to him.

"Look at my drawing," said the man smilingly.

Susan took a glance at the drawing board casually. An incredulous look flashed past her eyes.

The scenery on the drawing was...
