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

Chapter 471A Note

"Susie." Luke waited for Susan by personally standing at the car door.

The last time they met, Luke wore a mask. This time, it was their first proper meeting after more than three years.

Susan subconsciously scanned Luke.

He did not look too different than he used t o, but his gaze seemed much more unreadable.

"Mommy, Mommy, who's this mister?" Chesney had stuck herself to Susan since early in the morning. She was now asking i n her soft sweet voice while she scrutinized Luke.

'Hmm, he's quite handsome! But not as handsome as Daddy!'

A smile tugged at Luke's lips when he looked at Chesney. "You must be Chessie. You’ve grown up so much."

"Do we know each other?" Chesney blinked.

"I met you when you were in your Mommy's tummy." Luke squatted down to talk to Chessie and his gesture pleased the little princess.

Chesney asked, "Then... why are you gone after I was born?"

"That is a complicated story." Luke smiled." I'll tell you when we have the chance, little princess."

"Okay!" Chesney agreed heartily.

"Let's go?" Luke straightened up.

Chesney blinked and pulled at Susan's hand. "Mommy, Mommy, I want to go with you too." "Uh...” Susan hesitated but Luke agreed immediately. "Sure, Chessie can come along.”

“Sorry for the trouble." Susan did not stop them.

It was a success! Chessie made a victory 'V sign in her mind and shared her live location with Julian.

'Daddy, Chessie’s done her best for you!

You must come quickly!’

Luke took Susan and Chessie to a castle he had on the outskirts.

"Wow, mister, your house is beautiful!” Chesney was intrigued by the different architecture as compared to Canada.

"Is it? Chessie can have a short stay here if you like,” Luke said with a smile, his gaze a t Chessie gentle and soft.

Chessie looked very much like Susie but there was more carefreeness in her expression compared to Susie. It was a sense of mannerism that could only be nurtured from abundant love.

"Thank you, mister,” Chessie said sweetly.

The servants in the castle had already prepared sweets and desserts.

Susan was never one to allow Chessie to indulge in too many sweets, but the girl was drooling from just smelling the sweetness in the air.

"Go have some," Luke said with a chuckle.

Chesney did not answer him but directed her gaze to Susan pleadingly. Her puppy eyes amused Susan.

"Have some, but not too much," Susan spoke up softly.

"Yay!” Chesney skipped over to enjoy the treats happily.

Luke's gaze turned tender as he watched the girl help herself with the desserts.

Looking at Chessie was like looking at a young Susie. It was just that Susie was not a s happy back then as Chessie was now.

Luke arched his brow as he glanced back a t Susan. "Let's talk somewhere?"

"Sure," Susan agreed.

The aroma of tea wafted in the quiet tearoom. Luke brewed a pot of it for Susan i n attention. "Have a taste."

Taking a sip, Susan praised, "It's aromatic. Rare that you could get such authentic tea here.”

She did not like tea initially, but the majority of the upper class in Skyking City NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

favored tea, so she picked up some knowledge through the years.

Luke chuckled humorlessly. "I can only picture home through these."

Susan put the teacup down. "It's been three years. Why didn't you go back to Canada?’

"Canada? I won't do as well in Canada as I'm doing here," Luke replied faintly. "I'm worth several times more compared to when I headed the Jenkins Corporation. Why would I want to go back? But now that I'm successful, I may consider going back for investments or something.”

Susan cast her gaze down without much comment. "As long as you’re happy.”

"You’re not asking about my years here?” Luke raised his brow.

"Tell me if you want to. It doesn’t matter if you don't," Susan answered. She was never too curious about things that had nothing t o do with her.

Luke beamed, slightly preening. "With the money that I've sold the Jenkins Corp, I earned some more in the share market and I started a business before I made even more money. I'm one of the top Canadian riches here in the States. By the way, my name here in the US is Daniel."

"You changed your name? I see why we haven’t received news about you back in Canada," Susan commented lightly.

Luke smiled. "Susie, I'm telling you all these just to ask you. Do you want to reconsider me?”

"Consider you? Consider what?"

"You don't have to keep it from me. I've been following what's happening in Canada. You and Julian aren't on the best terms now. Back then, you chose him between me and him. Now that it's proven that your choice is wrong, why don’t you consider righting it? We’re supposed to be a pair, are we not?" Luke said confidently.

His assurance discomforted Susan.

She spoke faintly, "What happened between us is in the past. Even when I can’t be with Julian, it doesn't mean that w e can start over. If this is what you want to tell me for meeting me, Chessie and I will b e leaving now."

Susan stood up.

As if panicking, Luke stood up as well and grabbed her hand. "Susie, are you really not reconsidering it?"

Susan’s gaze turned unreadable.

Just now, right when Luke grabbed her hand, he pushed a note in her palm.

What was going on? What could he not say aloud that he had to tell her with this method?

Luke pulled Susan, going near her with the force, and whispered harshly, "Go back and read it."

Before Susan could react, Luke was already gritting his teeth suddenly. “Susan, I can have any woman I want now with my current stature. It should be your honor when I'm willing to come back to you, a married woman. Don't be ungrateful."

Susan narrowed her eyes and followed Luke’s course of conversation. She wore an angry face. "I don't need such honor!"

She looked like she was thoroughly angered as she turned to leave.

"Chessie, let's go," Susan called out to Chesney right away.
