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

Chapter 544 Starting A New Life

"Eh? Isn't that Uncle Jacob's voice?" Chessie's eyes lit up.

Susan pursed her lips. Knowing that she could not escape, she opened the door silently.

As soon as the door opened, Luna rushed in and hugged her. "My girl, how could you just leave without telling your parents? Didn't you know that we'd worry about you?"

Upon seeing everybody's anxious expressions, Susan felt a little guilty. After a while, she explained softly, "I wanted to inform you after I'd settled down. If I were to tell you earlier, I was afraid that you wouldn’t let me come here..."

So you went with the fait accompli tactic. huh?" George looked at Susan with approving eyes. "Such decisiveness... That's so like my style. The apple truly does not fall far from the tree."

"Shut up, old man!" Luna could not help but glare at George. What was this idiot thinking? Was this action worthy of praise?

Was this meant to encourage Susie to do this all the time in the future?

Luna simply wondered how she had fallen in love with George.

Feeling Luna's glare, George stopped talking cowardly.

Susan cleared her throat and said gently," Don't worry about me, mom. I just wanted to leave and go to a serene and quiet place.”

The reason Susan wanted to be left in peace was obvious to everyone present.

Luna took Susan's hands suddenly and said with a distressed expression, "Susie, mom knows that you might have felt a little upset if you'd stayed in Skyking City, but you didn't have to come this far.

We could stay in the suburbs. As long as we don’t run into the people we don't want to meet, it will be okay, right?"

Susan pursed her lips and then expressed her thoughts very solemnly. "Mom, I won't lie to you, I can’t get that man off my mind. However, since he has already betrayed me, I don't want to humbly beg him for anything. If I were to stay in Skyking City, there would be too many people around who know me. I don’t want to see their sympathetic or gloating gazes. On the other hand, Jerucity is great. It's far from both Skyking City and Ningcheng City, so the people around here don’t know me.

Thus, I don’t have to worry about awkward gazes and I can be myself and have peace of mind. Mom, I need time to start a new life. Please let me stay here, okay?"

Since Susan had said this, although Luna was still reluctant to leave her, she gritted her teeth and agreed to it. "Susie, I can agree to your idea and let you stay here temporarily, but promise me that you'll come back to us sooner or later." Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Susan gave her a resplendent grin. “Of course, Skyking City is my home, and everyone wants to go home eventually. I'll definitely be back once I’ve let go of everything. Just give me some time, mom."

"Alright..." Luna was torn between two choices, but she also knew that forcing Susan to stay in Skyking City would only make her feel uncomfortable. Staying away from that place might be the best option for her.

After addressing the elephant in the room, Luna put aside her worries and said, "You can stay, but you'll be living alone with two children. I can't allow that. Therefore, I've brought two guards with great skills. From now on, they'll take turns protecting you three 24/7.”

Luna waved her hands as she spoke.

Sure enough, two well-built bodyguards walked in.

"They're the Chabowski brothers. He's Bruce, and he's Rivera. They'll stay here for as long as you do."

Susan was slightly touched. Luna had even prepared bodyguards before coming over, which proved that she had already thought about giving in from the very beginning. Sure enough, even if her daughter was headstrong, a mother would always support her unconditionally.

Susan sniffed, resisting a feeling of slight bitterness. "Mom, there's no need, I..."

As soon as she started that sentence, Luna interrupted her without any hesitation. "If you don’t keep them, I'll never allow you to stay here."

Upon seeing Luna's steadfast look, Susan could only nod in response.

"Good." Luna gave her a smile.

Susan thought about an idea for a while and then glanced at Jacob. "Jacob, you must have located me, right? Could you help me with something?"

"Shoot," Jacob replied immediately.

"Don't let him find me too," Susan said, her jaw clamping tightly.

Jacob was taken aback for a split second.

Then, he responded with a nod, "Don't worry, I won't let him disturb your peaceful life."

"Thanks, Jacob." Susan was relieved now.

With her brother in the way, there should be no way for Julian to locate her through the internet.

Next, the whole group checked every corner of Susan's new living environment. They looked up, down, and inside out.

Susan had bought this villa in a high-end district. The security systems were relatively sophisticated in such wealthy areas, so their safety was more guaranteed.

The facilities in the villa were also complete.

Plus, Jerucity was a great choice. The scenery was breath-taking, and it was said that it was cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Overall, this living environment could be considered very comfortable.

After a detailed inspection, Luna gave her a contented smile. "It's a great place. Susie, you even knew that you should buy a villa. I think I can rest assured now. I was so afraid that, given your stubborn temper, you'd leave with the kids without any money."

"Without any money? Why would I?" Susan said with a faint smirk. "Didn't he refuse to divorce me? Half of his assets are naturally mine. If I don’t use them, others will, so why should I let them? Besides, I can let myself suffer, but the kids don't deserve that."

"Yup, you're right to think that way." Luna could not help but laugh.

She was really relieved to know that. After

all, as long as one had money and was willing to spend it, one could live well in this world most of the time.

After one more round of inspections, everyone was relieved about Susan and the children's living situation. Thus, Susan persuaded everyone to return to Skyking City.

She then saw them off personally.

When the plane finally took off, Susan took the children back to the villa.

The two children were quite excited about living in a new environment, so it took Susan a long time to put them to bed.

Later that night, as Susan stared at the dark, vast sky outside the window, a faint arc appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Ever since she had gotten away from that man, she felt a lot more relaxed, both

physically and mentally.

'Julian Shaw, time is the best medicine.'

'Even though I still can’t forget you yet, even though I’m still devastated and my heart feels like it's scattered, I believe that as long as the distance between us is far enough and the time is long enough, I'll forget about you one day.'

'I believe in myself.’

I will start a new life here.'

When Susan made up her mind under the moonlight, the others had already returned to Skyking City.
