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

Chapter 442 I Will Destroy Myself

"Why don't you give him a call?" Seth asked curiously.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Madam Shaw’s eyes.

If Julian had been willing to answer her call, would she still have had to make a trip to the company?

As if he could read her mind, Seth scratched his head and suggested, "How about this, Madam Shaw? I'm not sure if Julian is busy with work or not, so why don’t I give him a call and see if he's available to meet you?"

When Madam Shaw heard that Seth was going to call Julian, she hastily waved her hand. "That is not necessary. Just take me up there."

Seth knew something was wrong, so he did not dare bring her up there recklessly. Therefore, he lifted one of his brows and said, "Madam Shaw, it's better if you tell me what reason you have for coming here. If you don't tell me the truth, I’m not going to take you up there to see Julian.”

Since Seth had already spoken like this, Madam Shaw gritted her teeth as a flicker o f anger crossed her face. "It is all Susan's fault. That b*tch poisoned me. I want Julian to divorce her, and he has agreed to do it. However, that thick-skinned slut has used some kind of spell on him and he went back to her again. I have the divorce agreement with me, but Julian refuses to g o through with the procedure and finalize the divorce. I'm not sure what she has told him, but he is angry with me right now. Not only is he refusing to answer my calls, but h e is also avoiding me. Seth, you be the judge. Your parents will always be the people who love you the most in this world. Julian doesn't even want to see his mother because of a woman. Don't you think that he's been blinded by love? He is..."

Madam Shaw would not stop her long tirade of complaints once she started. Jacob interrupted her coldly and said," What did you say? Julian and Susie are getting a divorce?"

Madam Shaw shot a glare at Jacob and replied, "She tried to poison me, so it's both natural and right for Julian to divorce her. The divorce agreement is here. Take a look at it if you don't believe me."

Jacob snatched the divorce agreement from Madam Shaw, his face turning ugly.

He was familiar with both Susan and Julian's handwriting, and it was true that both of them had signed the agreement.

"How is this possible?" Seth still could not calm down. The two of them loved each other to the core, so how was there even a possibility that they could get a divorce?

However, the divorce agreement was real and the signatures were indeed Julian and Susan's, so what the hell had happened?

Seth suddenly felt like he was dreaming.

Before he could recover from his trance, Jacob had already stormed upstairs.

"Jacob, wait! Don’t do anything rash yet!" Just as Seth was about to go after Jacob, Madam Shaw grabbed his arm and said," Take me upstairs, Deed. I want to see Julian."

"Erm, Madam Shaw, this is something between you and Julian, so I guess you better talk to him first."

Upon saying that, Seth shrugged Madam Shaw off and charged upstairs as well.

Madam Shaw wanted to follow him but was stopped by the staff.

She gritted her teeth indignantly.

'This is all that slut’s fault! Had she not said something to Julian, he would not have been angry with me all of a sudden.'

Madam Shaw waited downstairs for a while, but no one came down. Left with no other option, she could only stamp her feet and leave in a huff.

Slap!

The door to the office was kicked open. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Julian raised his head, ready to frown, but a shadow had already arrived in front of him.

With his arm held high and his fist clenched, Jacob threw a punch at Julian without any hesitation, only to be easily avoided by Julian.

Jacob did not say anything and went in for the second strike.

This time, Julian grabbed his fist and snarled at him angrily, "What the hell are you doing, Jacob? Are you crazy?”

"Am I crazy?” Jacob looked at Julian with bloodshot eyes. "Have you forgotten what you promised me when you took Susie's hand from me at the wedding? You said you'd take care of her all your life and protect her at all costs. I trusted you, so I handed Susie over to you. What have you done to her now?"

Julian was stunned for a moment. Deep exhaustion crept onto his face as he said,"

You already know? Did Susie tell you?”

“Susie didn’t tell me anything. I met your mother downstairs, and she told me," Jacob replied through gritted teeth.

“Julian, what the hell is happening? Why are you and Susie getting a divorce? Are you pulling my leg? If this is real, I will stop believing in love," Seth said, his chest puffing up and down from all the running.

"It is a long story." Julian relapsed into silence for a while before starting to fill them in.

Seth did not know what to say anymore." It's clear that someone else is behind this, s o why is Madam Shaw..."

Jacob rose to his feet and attempted to walk away.

"Where are you going, Jacob?" Seth asked. “I’m going to look for Susie," Jacob replied expressionlessly.

He was even angrier after hearing the story. Madam Shaw was a human, but was Susan not? Why did she always have to be the person who got the short end of the stick? This was so unfair!

He did not want to talk to Julian anymore.

"Jacob." Julian went forward and stood in front of him.

"Get lost," Jacob instructed him coldly.

"I need your help, Jacob," Julian added calmly.

"You need my help? I don't understand how you can ask for my help with that brazen face of yours after what you did to Susie." Jacob huffed. "I’m already doing you a big favor by not parting ways with you." "Then do it,” Julian said, looking straight into Jacob's eyes. "I'm certain that if you join forces with Seth, you two will be able t o kick me out of StarTech.”

"What do you mean by that, Julian?" Seth looked at Julian in confusion.

"I want you two to destroy me,” Julian added calmly. "If you join forces, since I already intend to back down from my position, I'm certain that it will be a piece o f cake for you guys to do it.”

The two of them did not know where Julian was going with this. Jacob frowned a t him.

"Jacob, you're Susie's brother. Seth, you can’t stand watching Susan getting bullied. I will try to make the Wrights cooperate with me later on. Then, all of you will be working together to pull me down. I had

everything written out in this proposal. If all of you follow my plan, in less than half a month, I will lose everything." Julian's eyes were calm.

Jacob and Seth took the proposal. The more they read, the more shocked they became.

Julian was literally destroying himself. Why would he be so hard on himself?

Seth went forward and placed his palm on Julian's forehead. "Have you lost your mind because you couldn't take the hit?"

Julian smacked Seth’s hand away and said calmly, "I'm not crazy. An eye for an eye. M y mom forced Susie away, so I want her to beg Susie to come back in the same way. A s long as you work with me, we can do it.”

Jacob narrowed his eyes and suddenly saw the light.

Madam Shaw had always had a sense of superiority in front of Susan and had always believed that Susan did not deserve Julian.

However, she had never considered the fact that Susan was a Wright. As the first military family in Canada, the Wrights had never been pushovers.

If the Wrights, coupled up with his and Seth’s resources, united and moved against Julian, it would be impossible for Julian to come out unscathed no matter how hard h e resisted. Plus, Julian would be cooperating with them according to this plan.

Madam Shaw was blockheaded. The person she cared the most about right now was none other than Julian.

Right now, Julian was trying to destroy himself in front of her. If he wanted to return to his former glory, he would definitely need Susan's help.

Then, what would Madam Shaw do for the sake of her son?

Julian was not kidding when he said that h e wanted Madam Shaw to beg Susan to come back to them.

Jacob had never expected that Julian would think of every step, but the lines on his face lightened a little.
