“I’ll tidy up the guest room for you.” Unable to look her in the eye, Susan turned around towards the guest room.“Wait.” Isla smiled. “The guest room needs to be tidied but not for me.”“What...do you mean?” Susan balled her fists slightly.Isla Brown stood up, revealing her model-like figure. She walked over to Susan and sneered down at her. “Didn’t you hear? Madam said that I need to get pregnant with Julian’s child. If I sleep in the guest room, how am I going to get pregnant with his child?”When Susan turned pale, Isla continued grinning. “Therefore, Mrs. Shaw, the person who should be sleeping in the guest room is you, not me.”Susan clenched her fists even tighter.Isla chuckled. “What is it? Are you refusing to, Mrs. Shaw? Then, do you need me to call Madam Shaw to see if…”“No, I’m willing to!” Susan cut her off. “I’ll sleep in the guest room. You...you can sleep in the master bedroom.”“That’s great.” Isla’s smile widened subconsciously. She looked at how cringy Susan was an

Julian’s gaze was so gentle that it felt like a fantasy.“Susan.” Julian looked deeply at her. “Are you crying?”“No,” she denied. “I…” Susan bit her lip without knowing how to rebuke. She did not know why she had to cry!He gazed deeply at her, and suddenly a flash of excitement appeared in his eyes. “Susan, are you crying because that Isla girl is here? You and me, are we…”Could he indulge the splinter of hope that Susan had fallen in love with him? He secretly hoped that Susan was actually

Ignoring the shock in Isla’s eyes, Julian walked out the door while embracing her.Sure enough, Susan had woken up and was in the living room.Julian took a glance at her, his face containing a trace of an evil smile. He stretched his hand out and lifted Isla’s chin. “Baby, you’re so beautiful.”Isla’s eyes lit up and her eyes flashed with joy. She could not help cooing delicately, “Chairman Shaw, you’re so naughty…”“Don’t you like it?” Julian deliberately got closer.Isla blushed. Whether one looked at him from near or from afar, Julian’s face was simply perfect. She would get struck by lightning if she missed a chance with a man as handsome and wealthy as him.Isla seized the opportunity and grasped onto Julian’s neck. Both of them stood so close as though they were kissing.Susan was walking out of the door when she saw that passionate scene between Julian Shaw and Isla Brown. Although she was prepared, she still felt the pinch in her heart.After drawing in a deep breath to suppr

“Yeah, Susan Shelby.” Charlotte looked strangely at Luke. “Brother, why are you so shocked? Do you know Susan?” she simply asked. After all, she did not think that her brother would have anything to do with Susan.“I’ve seen her a few times when I was with Mandy.” Luke suppressed his shock and pretended to answer calmly, “Mandy and I thought that she was one of Julian’s women, but we never thought that...she’d be married to him”‘Susan...is married to Julian.’ Luke suddenly found himself distracted.He could hear a crisp voice in his mind.“Luke, I feel really happy now, but I’m a little scared. Do you think that we can be together forever?”“Of course. I, Luke Jenkins, will not want anyone else besides you.”“Hmph, you’re such a sweet talker.”“This is not sweet talking, Susan, I…”‘Susan.’ Luke suddenly felt his head hurt.‘Why did such a conversation play in his head? Was it an illusion? If it was an illusion, why did it seem so real? If it wasn’t an illusion, who was he talking to?

That voice...Susan turned and saw Luke staring at her in surprise. The fountain created a light mist in front of him, softening his features instantly.Susan could not help but fall into a trance.A familiar face in a familiar place.Everything seemed to have happened just yesterday, but at the same time, it was as though a century had passed.“What are you doing here?”“What are you doing here?”They both spoke at the same time.Stunned, Luke then broke out into a smile. “For some reason, I’ve always regarded today as an important day, so I came here.”Susan’s heart skipped a beat.“Next time, every year when it’s your birthday, we will come to see the fountain. Then, I will make you a ring, alright?”“Are you that stingy? Is the ring only going to be made of straw?”“I mean a real ring. I want to give you one with the blessings of the entire world.”Tragically, the world did not bless them as such. When Luke had taken her to meet his parents, all they received was rejection.“Susan
