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

Chapter 195 He's Not Little Leaf, Of Course

Susan Shelby could not help feeling an ominous presentiment in her heart.

Little Leaf... How did Little Leaf turn into that?

Compared to Wayne Lewis before her eyes, the impression of that little elf-like little boy in her mind seemed to be crumbling.

Those were all extremely important memories to her. Must Wayne destroy everything she had now?

"Little Leaf, stop it." Susan watched Wayne approach her slowly. "Have you forgotten that we were the bestest of friends?”

"It’s precisely because we are the bestest of friends that I want to go further." Wayne smiled and removed his tie.

Susan's expression changed drastically. She did not hesitate anymore as she ran toward the door right away.

Wayne made his way in front of her with one swift step and pulled her back.

"Wayne Lewis, let go of me. Let go of me now and I shall pretend that nothing happened. I will still see you as a friend." Susan clenched her teeth.

"What a waste that the status of friend is not enough t o satisfy me." Wayne smiled and pinned down Susan o n the sofa.

"Let go, let go of me." Susan struggled with all her might.

“Don't be nervous. You will enjoy it soon enough," said Wayne softly. He was about to lean closer.

Susan shrieked aloud and took out the electroshock weapon from her pocket abruptly before she smashed it against the back of Wayne's neck strenuously.

Wayne stopped moving. He stared at Susan hazily, then he rolled over to the ground with a loud clap.

Susan got up in fear and trepidation with the electroshock weapon in her hand.

She looked at Wayne from afar, having hardly recovered from the recent shock.

Fortunately, she was out of town on her own and remained vigilant all this time so she carried along with her a small-sized electroshock weapon at all times. Otherwise, the result would be unbearably horrible.

Susan approached the man slowly with the electroshock weapon in her hand.

Wayne was lying on the floor without any response.

Susan's pupils constricted abruptly.

The scene before her eyes coincided with the scene that took place a few months ago all of a sudden.

At the time, Richard Jenkins was lying quietly on the

floor too.

"Oh." Susan shrieked aloud and dropped the electroshock weapon. She curled into the corner of a wall in fear.

"Have I just murdered another man?"

"It can’t be, it can’t be. It's just an electroshock weapon."

"Yet, what if he is dead?"

"What if?"

"I didn't, I didn't kill a man."

"I killed a man, I killed a man."

Susan looked at Wayne lying on the floor. Her gaze turned hazy gradually and she was muttering words continuously in a rather baffling manner.

Susan was under the assumption that she had already forgotten most of the experience with Richard.

Yet, she felt as if she could see the curtains blowing in the wind once again and the fresh, scarlet blood at this very moment.

She felt as if she was trapped in a dark room. There was no light nor exit, only blood that flowed akin to a river.

Help me...

Help me...

Susan screamed aloud in her heart incessantly.

The door burst open the last time and the person that brought her away from the bloody world was Julian Shaw.

Yet, Julian would never come again this time.

He had already found someone else.

The darkness grew even thicker all of a sudden.

Susan hugged her knees tightly akin to a lost child.

Time passed every second, every minute, and every hour.

Susan's mind was filled with the color of blood.

Richard’s face and Wayne's face appeared alternately without stop. She felt as if she was going mad soon.

'Save me, someone please save me.'

Her rational mind was telling her that she should leave immediately and report this to the police.

Yet, her mind was in total chaos as soon as she saw Wayne lying on the ground. She was utterly incapable of moving.

'This nightmare...

'When will it end?'

Susan was shivering even more profusely.

She felt cold, helpless, and she even felt as if she would be completely engulfed by the darkness soon.

Meanwhile, the door suddenly opened up.

Susan looked over in slight confusion.

Then, she blinked subconsciously.

Was she dreaming?

Why did she feel like she was seeing Julian? Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She must be dreaming. Why would Julian appear in this kind of place? He was busy fondling and kissing Isabelle Shelby now.

The corners of Susan's lips curled into a bitter smile for a moment.

Her hallucination was getting worse.

Just like now, she had not only seen Julian, but she could even feel Julian walking toward her.

Was she overly dependent on Julian?

"Susie, Susie, what’s going on with you!" An anxious voice was heard.

It was Julian's voice.

Susan looked at him in a daze, then she let out a forced chuckle. "I'm actually having an auditory hallucination now. Julian, do I miss you that much?"

Julian's pupils constricted abruptly. His entire person was trembling in the wrenching pain of his heart.

He could not describe the scene that he saw when he had just opened the door.

Susie was curled in the corner of a wall quietly akin to a child that was abandoned by the whole world.

This dumb woman. The whole world would never abandon her because he would always protect her regardless.

"Susie, this is not a hallucination and you don't have a n auditory hallucination either. It's me, Julian. I'm here.” Julian extended his arm and wrapped it around Susan gently.

"Julian... Shaw?" Susan raised her head in slight confusion.

"It's me." Julian held her hand. "Can you feel the warmth?"

Susan lowered her head to look at the hand.

She felt it. She felt the warmth.

It felt as if the darkness was being dispersed slowly too.

Susan stretched out his hand and pinched Julian's cheek mischievously. "It's solid.”

Julian pitied her but he was also amused by her. He could not help saying, "Now you can be sure that it's m e."

It really was Julian Shaw...

Susan could not help pouting her lips.

Meanwhile, every other thought in her mind including Isabelle and other messy ideas were left behind.

“Julian." Susan threw herself into Julian's arms at once and bawled aloud.

"It’s me, it’s me." Julian caressed her hair gently and felt his entire heart soften.

"Julian... It seems that I've killed a man again," said Susan shakily.

"Killed a man?" Julian's pupils constricted abruptly." Susie, what's going on?"

Susan pointed to Wayne lying on the ground in fear.

Julian had only discovered another person in the room by now.

He loosened his hold on Susie in an attempt to walk over to check on the person.

“Julian." Susan held his hand and refused to let go.

"Susie, I'm going to check on him," said Julian to comfort her.

Susan refused to let go still. There was nothing Julian could do except hold her with one hand and use his other hand to check if Wayne was breathing.

Soon, he said, “Susie, he is not dead, he has only fainted."

"He has only fainted?" muttered Susan. Color finally returned to her face.

Actually, her rational mind was constantly telling her that the electroshock weapon would not kill a man.

It was only that she was deeply affected by the trauma of Richard's incident such that she was utterly incapable of removing herself from the shadow.

"What’s going on here?" Julian could not help asking a s he stared at Wayne.

Susan felt aggrieved at the mention of Wayne. "He said that he was Little Leaf, yet he was trying to bully me. Little Leaf is not supposed to be like this, he shouldn't be..."

Susan’s narration was a chaotic mess but Julian began to understand the situation. His gaze turned gentle at once.

He hugged Susan tightly. "Susan, of course he’s not Little Leaf. That is because..."
