Chapter 537 Confrontation
Chapter 537 Confrontation
Serenity Wright did not suspect anything. As she drove the car, she asked casually, "It seems like the location is a little remote, huh? It's still early in the morning. Why are you going there?"
Susan Shelby pursed her lips and said after a long time, "No reason. I just need to do something."
A confused look flashed past Serenity's eyes after she took a glance at Susan's expression through the rearview mirror.
Susan seemed to be behaving rather odd today.
Meanwhile, George Wright and Luna Harris received a call from the security guard.
What? Serenity gave Susie a lift?" Luna was stunned for a moment. "Where are they going?"
"I'm not so sure," said the security guard. " Miss Wright refused to say."
Luna hung up the call and did not inquire further, but her lips were tightly pursed.
Susan had refused to tell Luna where she was going, yet Luna could still figure it out.
She was certain that Susan was heading to see Julian Shaw and Willa Doyle now.
At the thought of the previous night and Susan’s face, which had been as calm as the moonlight, Luna's hands tightened into fists ever so slightly.
She found that she was reluctant to think about it.
If Julian were to hurt Susan in person, how sad would she be?
"Don’t worry. I will give Serenity a call and ask where they are," said George, who was about to make the call.
Luna could not refrain anymore and slapped his head once. "Can you please grow some brains?”
"What's going on again?" George appeared innocent. Could the way he had suggested not be the fastest way to discover Susie's whereabouts?
Luna was simply too lazy to explain to George. She glared at him and then said, "Is there a need to ask where they are going at this point?"
Why not?
George was about to ask but he took a glance and noticed Luna's expression. She looked as if she would beat him up if he were to ask. He could only lower his head, feeling aggrieved. "Since you already know where they are going, wifey, shall we follow them?”
This time, Luna did not question George's intelligence. She rubbed her temples and said slowly after a long time, “Just let Serenity accompany her."
At that very moment, many ideas ran through her mind.
Susie would need to endure this pain sooner or later.
It was good that Susie had someone like Serenity to keep her company.
Plus, Serenity had no idea about the truth so she would not divulge the flaw in the plan easily.
Luna heaved a sigh. Then, she looked toward the entrance with a complicated gaze. She was overwhelmed by the chaotic feelings in her heart.
Serenity drove all the way with Susie until they arrived at the door of the villa.
Susan had left the house when the sky was still dark, so it was only about four or five in the morning now.
Other than the gatekeeper guarding the place dutifully, the villa was completely quiet.
"We're here, Susie..." As Serenity was speaking, she realized that Susie had already gotten out of the car. Then, she walked straight to the door.
Serenity was stunned for a moment. Then, she followed her hastily.
"Mrs. Shaw." When the gatekeeper saw Susan from afar, a surprised expression formed on his face subconsciously.
"Open the door," said Susan nonchalantly.
"Mrs. Shaw, you... Are you here to look for something? How about I get someone to help you look for it?" said the gatekeeper with a stutter.
He was unaware of the insider information but he knew that Julian was hiding a woman inside. Now that Susan had come rushing over, she was certainly there to catch him in the act!
Yikes! These rich people! None of them was good. Only a man like him, who had no money but was loyal to his wife, was a good person.
The gatekeeper was lost in thoughts he could not control.
"Open the door." Susan looked at him and spoke emphatically once again.
"But..." The gatekeeper looked for an excuse anxiously. Even though he could not stand Julian's behavior, he was well aware that he could not allow Susan to enter the house.
Before he could figure out an excuse, Susan was already speaking expressionlessly. " Open the door, or you'll get fired. Choose."
The gatekeeper was startled. He could see that Susan was not joking so he could not help trembling once. Then, he said in a daze, "Mrs. Shaw gave me an order. How could I have the courage not to follow it?"
The gatekeeper operated the automatic gate and made it open in fear.
Susan walked into the villa right away.
Serenity looked at Susan and then looked at the gatekeeper, feeling something strange.
However, before she had the time to ponder this, she followed Susan in a rush.
Susan was silent as she continued to walk all the way inside.
She had just made her way to the door when, all of a sudden, the door was opened.
A silhouette appeared at the door.
"Susie!" Julian looked at Susan with a bewildered look flashing past his eyes.
"Julian." Susan looked at him. She did not miss the panicked look in Julian’s eyes but she still smiled. "What have you been working on recently? Why haven’t you come to see me? Chessie and Luca have been asking me where daddy is."
Susan’s smile was very clear. In fact, she even reached for Julian's hand naturally as if she had never seen those photos before.
Julian's lips trembled once. He was about to say something.
All of a sudden, a crisp voice was heard. " Julian, why are you awake so early?"
The voice sounded rather familiar.
Susan's back tensed up as she stood on the same spot without budging.
"I still woke up earlier than you. I've already prepared breakfast. Would you like ..." Willa walked out with a smile.
Then, she saw Susan.
Susan saw her as well.
Willa raised an eyebrow with a faint smile flashing past her eyes. "You're here, Susie."
She walked over and wrapped her arm around Julian's arm dominantly.
Susan stared at her non-stop.
Julian had always refused to come in physical contact with any woman other than Susan. He should have certainly moved away from her.
However, Julian remained still even when Willa was done wrapping her arm around his arm.
Susan’s heart was trembling uncontrollably.
What the heck was going on?
She had said that she would never believe it unless Julian told her in his own words. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Were Julian's actions now considered silent communication?
Before Susan could speak, Serenity, who could no longer hold back upon seeing the scene, charged forward swiftly and pulled Willa away at one go. She performed a clean and agile suplex and then tossed Willa on the floor.
"Willa! Why are you constantly haunting us?" Serenity looked at her in rage. "Do you think you deserve to touch my mother!* eking brother-in-law?"
Serenity did not show the slightest mercy as she slammed Willa against the floor. Willa could not help howling in pain.
Her body, which had been tormented before this, had yet to recover fully as she was tossed about by Serenity at once. She truly felt like her body was about to crumble.
However, she still managed to maintain a weak smile forcefully and look at Julian piteously. "Julian, I..."
Her smile soon froze on her face. This was because Julian would not even look at her.
There was only Susan in this man's heart and eyes!
"Still calling out for Julian, huh? Why are you addressing him in such an intimate manner?" Serenity was even more furious. Clap, clap, clap, clap. She gave Willa a few tight slaps.
Willa was dumbstruck from bewilderment after being treated so brutally.
After a long while, she reacted to the situation. She wanted to struggle, yet how could she be a worthy opponent of Serenity? After a few failed attempts, she called out, "Julian, have you forgotten what you promised me?"
Meanwhile, Julian only shifted his gaze slowly and saw Willa lying on the ground. There was a slight change in his gaze before he said, "Serenity, let go of her."
