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

Chapter 196 I Am Little Leaf

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? Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

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 g o on my behalf. Isabelle told me that Little Leaf didn’t come at all," said Susan anxiously.

"Car accident? What happened, Susie?” Julian could not help inquiring closely. He was utterly oblivious to this incident to his surprise.

"Isabelle told me that she wanted to go to Lin County with me on that day. I went to pick her up and got into an accident. However, I managed to hit the brakes in time. Moreover, there was the safety airbag as well so I wasn't injured much and I recovered pretty soon," said Susan.

"It was Isabelle again!" Julian could not refrain himself from holding Susan's hand. Fortunately, Susan was fine. Yet, if she were to hit the brakes one step slower, he wondered if she would end up being injured?

At present, Julian simply wished that he could choke Isabelle to death in his hands.

"Julian, that day...that day, did you go to the secret base?" asked Susan.

"Hmm. Isabelle told you that Little Leaf didn’t turn up but she lied to you!" A cold glint flashed past Julian's eyes. "She told me that she was Little Flower!"

"What!" Susan was shocked.

Due to recent events, she was on her guard against Isabelle. Yet, she had never expected that Isabelle would actually plot against her since the start!

She trusted Isabelle so much at the time.

The feeling of betrayal surged from the bottom of her heart. It made Susan's entire body tremble in rage. " She told me that Little Leaf did not turn up at all. I... I thought Little Leaf might have forgotten about it and felt kind of sad for quite a while." "Foolish little girl." Julian rubbed Susan’s head. "I was under the assumption that she was Little Flower at the time. In order to make it up to her for her help during childhood, I gave her the five-million-dollar contract. However, I was worried that you might think too much so I didn't tell you. The hug that you saw on that day happened when she told me that she would never bother me anymore after the hug. That was why I didn't shove her away. Isabelle knew about everything between us. Thus, I didn't suspect her true identity in the beginning. I was only suspicious when she made herself fall to frame you on purpose.”

"Twenty years is truly a long time. It's so long that so many things can change. However, I don't believe that my Little Flower would turn into that. Thus, I got close to her on purpose just to probe around. As a result, I got some photos from Yvonne as per my scheme."

Julian took out his phone and showed Susan. Susan's pupils constricted abruptly as soon as she took a glance.

"Isn't... Isn’t this my diary?"

"Yes." Julian nodded. "The diary is in Isabelle's hands. It is also the reason why she deceived me earlier."

"The diary is in Isabelle's hands...." Susan patted her head. "I lost the diary in the past but Isabelle told me that she witnessed Yvonne burn my diary! She... She was actually lying to me."

A look of disbelief flashed past Susan's eyes without her notice.

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 e vile st 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.
