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

Chapter 542 Leaving

"Anna." Susan held her hand and gave her a smile. "You deserve this. Anyway, this 30 percent of the shares belonged to my brother originally. He just asked me to keep it for him temporarily. You'll be his wife in the future, so from now on, you should take care of it for him."

"But..."

"No buts.” Susan smiled gently. "Don’t you want to marry my brother in the future?"

"I'll marry him, but..."

"Alright, you've already signed your name, so just take it," Susan said with a grin. "It's a family tradition for the women to be in charge of the money. Also, don't tell my brother about this just yet."

Anna stared at the signed contract with a nonplussed expression involuntarily.

Susan suddenly hugged her at that moment. "Anna, just consider it a wedding gift from me, okay?"

Susan's embrace was very tender. Anna's glabella relaxed, and she responded softly.

All of a sudden, there was a knock on the door.

Susan opened the door and saw Jacob.

He was holding a fruit platter. “Susie, I’m here to deliver some fruit.”

"Tsk... Bullsh*t." Susan took a glance at him in amusement. "You're just worried about Anna being alone with me."

"No, I'm not.” Jacob felt embarrassed instantly.

"Okay, we're done with our little secretsharing session. Take your fruit back to the living room. Well eat it with everybody else," Susan said with a smile.

As she said so, she winked at Anna, giving her a signal.

Anna had already put away the contract. She did not know what to say about this matter, so she could only nod.

Everyone was in the living room, so it was a boisterous scene.

"By the way, where's brother-in-law?” Anna suddenly asked out of curiosity after she chatted and laughed with the others for a while.

The lively atmosphere became cold immediately.

Everybody gazed at Susan subconsciously.

Susan just smiled faintly.

"There’s so much delicious food, yet it's still failed to stuff your mouth?” Luna picked up a slice of apple and shoved it into Anna's mouth.

Everyone else intervened and interrupted in an effort to change the topic.

Susan laughed and looked across the lively hall. It was not clear what she was glancing at.

She knew that everyone was afraid to evoke her agony. That was why they were carefully avoiding that topic.

However, it was useless.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

The wound would always be there, and it would not hurt less just because others did not bring the topic up.

However, everyone was being kind, so

Susan accepted this kindness silently.

At night, Susan slept with the kids.

She lay in the middle, and Luca and Chessie took the spot on her left and right. They both looked very happy.

"Mommy, you haven’t slept with Chessie for a long time," Chessie said.

Susan pinched Chessie's cheek. "Chessie is already a big girl. How can she sleep with her mother all the time?"

"Chessie wants to sleep with mommy." Chessie rubbed her face against Susan's.

Lucas looked at the scene with slight envy, but he did not dare approach Susan like Chessie did.

Susan laughed and hugged the kids close to her, one on each side.

She then said softly, "Chessie, Luca. There's a question that mommy would like to ask you." "What's the question?” Chessie stared at Susan curiously.

Susan hesitated for a second before she said, "Mommy might leave Skyking City for some time. A long period of time. The two of you... Would you like to stay, or would you like to leave with mommy?"

Yes, that was the decision that Susan had made.

She could not bear staying in the same city as Julian. Too many memories had been made in this city and they scorched her heart every day. She only wanted to leave and travel to a place far away from there.

She planned to only notify the others once she had arrived at her destination, but the two children... She had to let them know beforehand.

She did not want Luca and Chessie to feel abandoned, so leaving or not leaving with her was their choice to make.

"Go away? Where to? Are we going somewhere on a trip? Is daddy coming with us too?" Chessie, who was very intrigued, started asking a lot of questions.

Susan took a deep breath and explained," No, it’s just mommy. And if you leave with mommy, you will not be able to see daddy for a long time. So... Chessie must think about it."

Chessie felt perplexed and froze for a moment. She then asked, "Mommy... Did daddy make you angry again?"

Susan could not help but smile. "Yeah, you could say that."

Chessie furrowed her brows and thought about it for a long time. She then responded, "Chessie will go where mommy goes. Mommy, you must take Chessie with you. Chessie will get very angry if mommy abandons her."

"Yes, I know that." Susan rubbed Chessie's hair and then gazed at Luca. "What about you, Luca?"

"I... I'll follow mommy too.” Luca stammered.

The decision was a lot easier for him than it was for Chessie. Compared to Julian, he was more willing to get close to Susan.

“Okay, then I'll bring both of you along." Susan's gaze was soft. "However, you can't tell this news to anyone else before we leave. This is a secret between the three of us. Pinky promise?"

Susan stretched out her little finger.

"Okay, pinky promise."

The two kids stretched out their little fingers too.

"That's it, deal. Mommy will let you know when she is ready to leave." Susan gave the two children each a kiss on their forehead.

Now that she had decided to leave with her two children, she started making preparations.

Since the children were coming along, she had to be fastidious when it came to their accommodation. Susan chose a beautiful location and bought a house. She even found a kindergarten remotely so they could go to school as soon as they arrived.

These arrangements were a piece of cake when one had money. The hard part was hiding this plan from the family.

When everything in the unfamiliar city was settled remotely, Susan began planning to leave Skyking City.

If she were to say that she wanted to leave directly, the family might not agree. Thus, Susan had decided to only let them know after everything was a done deal.

Leaving was not difficult.

Susan suddenly expressed that she wished to go out to relax, so everyone naturally agreed and Anna and Serenity took her shopping.

Susan had contacted a store a few days earlier and paid them a lot of money to set up a secret door in the fitting room in order for her to leave.

While they were shopping, she secretly left the shop by saying she would be trying on clothes.

Anna and Serenity found out that something was wrong. As they were looking for her everywhere, Susan picked up the kids.

The three of them boarded a plane.

After they were settled down on the plane, Susan turned on the communication software and wrote an email.
