Chapter 592 It’s All His
Although this was considered a frightening experience for Willa, she arrived home safely at last.
The Wrights had not made things difficult for her, or perhaps they did not even care enough to go hard on her.
Be that as it may, Willa's face was ashen by the time she arrived at the Shaw Mansion.
Madam Shaw was taken aback by her appearance when she saw her. She hastily went forward and helped her walk into the living room. "I already told you that you should not travel in your current condition. You just left today. How come your face has turned so pale?"
After Madam Shaw helped Willa settle down on the couch, she went to order the servants to prepare all sorts of things.
Then, Madam Shaw turned to look at Willa, "Where is Julian? Why didn't he come back with you?"
A smile that was even uglier than a cry appeared on Willa's face when Madam Shaw mentioned Julian.
She had been preparing the special remedy for Susan in seclusion in the past few days. However, Julian had told Madam Shaw that the two of them had gone on vacation.
That was why Madam Shaw asked her about Julian when she saw her return alone.
"Madam." Willa looked at Madam Shaw, her face turning paler and paler as the words slowly escaped her lips. "Julian... He ... He..." "What happened to Julian?" Madam Shaw's heart somersaulted, and a bad foreboding began to well in her stomach pit when she saw Willa's expression.
When Willa recalled seeing Julian fall off the cliff, she broke into tears.
The cliff had been tall, so it was very unlikely that both Julian and Susan had survived the fall.
Willa truly loved Julian, so her tears were real.
Madam Shaw had never seen Willa bawl her eyes out like this before, and the bad hunch in her heart began to grow as a result.
She grabbed Willa's hand and asked, "Can you stop crying for a moment and tell me what happened to Julian?"
Willa cried for a while longer. Then, she eventually calmed down a little. "Julian... Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Julian and Susan fell off a cliff.' 'Fell off a cliff? With Susan? What the hell is happening?'
A hint of surprise crossed Madam Shaw's eyes. She involuntarily tightened her hand, which was holding Willa’s hand, as she asked, "What are you talking about? Tell me everything from the beginning."
Julian was Madam Shaw's greatest treasure. When she heard that Julian had fallen off a cliff, she staggered. If a servant did not come up to hold her at the last minute, she would have already collapsed on the floor.
Willa cried and sobbed intermittently. "It's all Susan's fault. None of this would have happened if she wasn't one of the Wrights. The Wrights have been hunting the Divine Lord, who is the head of an organization known as the Dark Night Agency. However, it turns out that the Divine Lord is actually Julius Jenner, the youngest general of Canada. Julius had been holding a grudge against the Wrights, so he abducted Susan to throw her off a cliff. When Julian heard the news, he hurriedly went after them. To save Susan, he engaged Julius in a fight. In the end, the three of them lost their footing and fell off the cliff. Up until now, nobody knows whether they are still alive or not...”
Willa had excluded herself from the story and pushed all the blame on Susan.
Madam Shaw was still able to hold on as she listened to Willa's story. When she heard that nobody could tell whether or not the three of them were still alive, her eyes rolled back in her head and she passed out.
"Madam, madam." All of the servants surrounded Madam Shaw nervously.
Willa was still crying on the side. The image of Julian charging toward Susan kept replaying in her mind.
When Julian had chosen her over Susan, she had thought Julian had genuinely fallen in love with her.
However, at the last moment, when Julian had ignored the gun pointing at her and dashed toward Susan, Willa had understood everything.
In Julian's heart, Susan was the most important person.
He could even sacrifice himself for the woman he loved.
The more Willa thought about it, the more pain she felt.
No matter how much she racked her brains to scheme, no matter how many intrigues and wiles she used, in the end, she still could not be compared to Susan.
Madam Shaw remained unconscious for a day and a night.
When she woke up, she charged headlong to the Wright Mansion like a lunatic, wanting an explanation from them.
It went without saying that Madam Shaw was not able to enter the Wright Mansion. Luna was not in good health, so Anna would never let Madam Shaw get near her mother. They just told Madam
Shaw that they had not discovered Julian and Susan's bodies yet, so there was a probability that they were alive. The rescue team was still working hard to search for them. Then, they kicked Madam Shaw out.
No matter how sad and anxious Madam Shaw was, there was nothing she could do other than wait patiently for news of Julian.
Several days passed, yet she did not hear from Julian.
The television was broadcasting news all day long.
The press simply stated that Julian and Susan had fallen off a cliff along with international criminal Julius Jenner and their whereabouts still remained unclear.
The press was able to view this incident from an objective perspective, but the same did not apply to the public. As time passed, the public began to grow more impatient and could not help becoming more pessimistic.
The fearful ability of the Dark Night Agency had been no secret in the past few years. Therefore, it was reasonable to deduce that the Divine Lord was someone one should not mess with.
Even if Julian and Susan had been lucky enough to survive the fall, would the Divine Lord have let them off so easily?
In any case, Canada had deployed plenty of manpower to aid the rescue mission. There were even choppers circling the forest from the sky all day long. If they were still alive, they only needed to build a fire to notify the rescue team by using the smoke.
However, they did not do it, which could only mean that they were probably dead.
Also, considering Julius’s ruthlessness, he might even have chopped up their corpses to obliterate all traces.
For some time, there were bad and good remarks everywhere. Some people comforted the Wrights and the Shaws, while others gloated over their misfortune.
Initially, the servants of the Shaws wanted to keep Madam Shaw from accessing any information about the incident. However, she paid them no mind and stubbornly searched through all the newspapers on the market that were reporting on the matter. The regular press remained objective regarding the incident, but that was not the case for smaller-scale press outlets. Their reports were circumstantial and untrue, and most of the time, they would say that Julian and Susan were already dead.
Madam Shaw's heart would jolt whenever she read this kind of newspaper. She locked herself up in her room all day long, and in the end, despair began to settle in her until it completely possessed her.
She had put all her hopes on her son. Now that Julian was gone, she felt like her life had collapsed.
Madam Shaw did not eat or drink anything for three to four days. It was only when Willa came and persuaded her with tears in her eyes that light returned to Madam Shaw's eyes.
Even if Julian was gone, she still had her grandson.
More and more light returned to Madam Shaw's eyes as she stared intently at Willa's stomach.
'Don't worry, Julian. I'll leave everything you have to this child. I’ll help you take care of him, raise him, and teach him everything he needs to learn.'
The will to fight flared in Madam Shaw's eyes.
"Willa, no matter what happens to Julian, you have a baby in your stomach, so you must be extra careful and take good care of yourself," Madam Shaw said.
"I know." Willa nodded weakly.
"This kid is the Shaws' only heir.
Everything Julian has will be his," Madam Shaw said resolutely as if she was taking a vow.
