Chapter 548 An Interesting Couple
Jay wanted to chase after her, but he had a thought and forwent the attempt. He turned to look at Susan worriedly and said," I’m really sorry about that, Miss Shelby. I hope this won't make me seem weird, but I’ve always been unable to control my wife. I guess she is going to ask for her brother's help. Her brother is the deputy. You guys are not natives, and I fear that..."
Susan soon grasped the whole story. She then said flatly, “I was just protecting myself. He could not do anything to me even if he is a deputy. Anyway, can I keep this knife? I want to keep it as evidence."
"Sure, sure. But Miss Shelby, you have to be very careful. My brother-in-law and my wife, they..." Jay was still worried about Susan.
"Don't worry about me. I'll be fine,” Susan chimed in, offering Jay a smile. "You are a good person, Mr. Dunn."
Susan's smile looked like a flower blossoming in spring, and Jay could not help but enter a trance.
However, he soon snapped back to reality. Red color rushed up and spread across his cheeks as he stammered awkwardly, "Any ... Anyway, I'll try my best to talk her down."
Then, he turned around and chased after Autumn.
"What an interesting couple!’ Susan chuckled. She then pushed the incident to the back of her mind and entered the car.
What Susan did not know was that two men appeared around the corner as soon as her car left.
"Should we follow them, Mr. Shaw?" a bespectacled man asked.
Julian's face was currently as dark as if a storm was brewing. He gnashed his teeth tightly and hissed, "Yes! Help me investigate those two people as well. They are Susie's neighbors, so it should be easy to check on them since they have a fixed address."
How dare that woman ambush Susie with a knife!
If it were not for Rivera and Bruce, Susie would have been harmed by her. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Even though Susan had been kind enough to let her go in the end, Julian refused to let the matter rest.
Besides, what was going on with her husband? Julian could see very clearly that he'd been staring at Susan just now.
Even though Susan was pretty, gentle, cute, and overall perfect, who had given him permission to goggle at her like that?
What's more, Susan had even smiled at the man!
God knew how long it had been since Susan had smiled at him.
Julian was filled with jealousy right now.
The driver arrived, and Julian and his secretary got in the car.
The secretary's actions were fast. The moment he got into the car, he began making calls to check the identities of these two people.
Julian screwed his eyes up, and his expression turned cold.
No matter who they were, he would certainly make those people pay for
hurting Susan.
After the secretary finished making calls, he looked carefully at Julian and reported," Mr. Shaw, I have asked someone to investigate them. We will get the results in 10 minutes."
Julian nodded slightly.
The secretary looked at Julian and sighed.
He could not understand his own boss at all.
He could see that Julian missed Susan very much. He would take a five-hour flight to Jerucity every week and look at his wife and kids like a pervert.
However, he did not show himself ever.
Then, he would return to Skyking City on the same day to keep Miss Doyle company.
The secretary could not understand rich
people.
It was very apparent that Julian did not favor Miss Doyle at all, so why was he willing to hurt Susan for Miss Doyle?
As the secretary was immersed in his own thoughts, Julian's apathetic voice rang out. "It's already been 10 minutes."
"Ah, I'll check with them again." Just as the secretary pulled out his phone, a call came.
He answered the call and listened attentively to the investigation conducted by the people on the other side of the line. After hanging up the phone, he reported," Mr. Shaw, according to our
investigation, Jay Dunn has opened up a small company here. His net worth is about 50 to 60 million dollars. He has quite a good reputation and he treats people around him with honesty. However, his wife, Autumn Abott is lawless. Her brother is the deputy, so she is arrogant and she treats others despotically. Jay has been putting up with her for a long time, but he doesn’t dare file for divorce. Besides, Autumn Abott’s elder brother is Holden Abott. He is the son-in-law of the director general of Jerucity.”
Julian harrumphed, "So that's how it is. Anyway, no one can harm my woman. I can see that Autumn Abott won't let go of this so easily. I'm sure that she has something up her sleeve. Send someone to run a background check on Holden Abott to see if we can dig up some dirt on him."
"Roger," the secretary answered and went to make the call.
Julian was calm. Judging by Autumn's behavior, as her brother, it was impossible that Holden would have a clean record. It was just that nobody had the audacity to go as far as to dig everything up. This time, he was going to teach both of them a lesson.
Julian thought for a while, and Oliver popped into his head. Oliver was having some time off right now. He called him and told him the entire story. Then, he asked Oliver to come over to Jerucity.
Holden was just a clown, and it would be a piece of cake to get rid of him.
It was just that Susan did not want to see him. Therefore, Julian did not plan on showing up himself. All he could do was gather all the evidence and pass it to Oliver.
Julian let out a sigh dejectedly.
Susan was his wife, but he could only protect her through a roundabout way.
When would these days end?
Perhaps everything would come to an end when they finally got hold of the Divine Lord.
Julian followed Susan everywhere and watched her buy souvenirs from the shadows.
His eyes were filled with vast gentleness. He reckoned that Susan should have prepared a gift for everyone, for she was a very considerate woman.
However, a second later, his heart was filled with indignation.
He was certain that she had not prepared a gift for him.
One moment, Julian was filled with happiness. A second later, he would be shrouded in an aura of moodiness and gloom. The expression on his face kept changing, causing his secretary to look at him in awe.
He suddenly had a feeling that his boss could become an actor if he decided not to do business anymore.
It was kind of dull to watch Susan shopping, but Julian did not feel bored at all. His eyes were glowing brightly as he watched her with great gusto.
After a while, Susan finished buying souvenirs. A smile spread across her lips when she was certain that she had not left anybody out.
"Alright, let's head back!" Susan hollered at Rivera and Bruce.
As they were on their way back, a fierce voice erupted.
"Freeze! Hands up in the air!"
Susan turned around and saw a dozen people standing at the entrance.
Rivera and Bruce immediately shielded Susan. Their faces turned solemn as they watched the people ahead.
"Brother, it's her! She asked them to hit me!" Autumn, whose cheeks had swollen up, shouted sharply.
