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

Chapter 304 Jacob Is Missing

At breakfast the next day.

Anna Wright looked left and right. She could not help asking, "Where's Jacob? Hasn't he woke up yet?"

“Yes, my brother was just discharged from the hospital recently. Let him rest more," said Susan Shelby with a smile.

"Little lazy pig,” muttered Anna.

Susan looked at Anna with her interest piqued, then she asked, "Annie, what do you think about my brother?"

"Huh?" Anna's face blushed scarlet at once. "What do you mean by what do I think of him?"

Susan carried the chair and placed it next to her before taking a seat. "I shall be more blunt, I guess. Do you like my brother? And I'm talking about how a girl likes a guy."

Anna was speechless.

It was a little overly blunt, huh!

Anna’s face was already blushing beyond recognition. She pushed at the table in a panic and stood up instantaneously. "Susie, what nonsense are you talking about?" "Nonsense?" Susan blinked innocently. "Does that mean that you don't like him? Frankly, my brother is not young anymore. I think that it's time that he get m e a sister-in-law. I wanted to introduce both of you to give it a try originally. If you’re not interested, then I shall try to introduce someone else, Annie."

Susan said it in all apparent seriousness. Anna said subconsciously, "Don’t introduce someone else!"

"Ah!" Susan took a meaningful glance at her. "Why is that so?"

"I..." Anna feigned her calmness forcibly and said," He’s such a blackhead, girls won't like him."

Witnessing Anna’s awkwardness, Susan refrained herself from laughing. “Other girls don’t like him so you do?" NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

"Yikes, I’m not talking to you anymore. I’m better off checking if he is awake." Anna turned around and ran upstairs with loud thuds.

Susan could not help laughing in spite of herself as she gazed at Anna's departing silhouette.

"What's so funny?" Julian Shaw shot a side glance at her.

"It's quite interesting." Susan suppressed the urge to laugh. "I was still worried about how the incident with Jenny Carter earlier would make my brother repulse women. It seems like I don't have to worry about that anymore judging by the current situation." "Anna is quite interested in Jacob. However, are you sure that Jacob likes her back?" asked Julian.

Susan sniggered and pointed at her eyes with a finger. "Nothing can hide from my titanium eyes. My instinct is telling me that they can end up as a couple."

"Is your instinct telling you that today's sausage is especially tasty?" As Julian was speaking, he picked u p a sausage and put it into his mouth.

Susan glanced to find the plate that contained the sausages originally was already empty.

Oh oh oh, it was one of her favorite breakfast foods.

"Julian, spit it out, spit it out." Susan attempted to shake him.

Susan had only let him off when he told her that there was still an extra plate for her in the kitchen.

The husband and wife were joking around when Anna suddenly came downstairs in a flurry. "Susie, Jacob...

Jacob is..."

"What’s going on?" Susan blinked. "Could it be that my brother molested you? It can’t be, right?"

"Yikes!" Anna’s face blushed subconsciously for a moment then hastily said, "Susie, Jacob is missing!”

"Missing?” Susan’s face froze at once.

"That's right. I went to knock on his door earlier and didn't get any response so I attempted to open the door. Unexpectedly, the door opened up right away and there was not a single person in the room,” said

Anna anxiously.

"Why is this happening!" Susan could not care about anything else so she went upstairs with Julian to check on him.

The room was empty just as described.

Anna was almost breaking into tears from the stress." Susie, where did he go..."

"Don’t panic," Julian frowned. "Jacob has already recovered from his condition fully. There must be a reason why he left the house."

"Yet, he is not picking up his phone. His phone is turned off." Susan waved her phone anxiously.

"What should I do! He has just been discharged from the hospital and his body has yet to recover fully." Anna looked like she was about to cry soon.

Julian's brows were tightly furrowed. He looked around the room, then he walked toward the table with swift steps.

A note was pressed under a book on the table.

"Jacob left a note?” Susan hastily walked over.

"Susie, Julian, I'm going out for a while to attend to some urgent matters. I’ll be back in two days at most.”

Be back in two days...

Susan felt relieved ever so slightly but she still felt rather confused. "Where did my brother go?"

"He has his own matters to attend to. I'm certain that h e has his own reasons for not telling us about it."

Susan nodded.

Anna stared at the note for a long time. She was in despair.

Jacob mentioned Susan and Julian's names, but not hers. It was fine that he did not bid farewell to her face -to-face but he did not even include her name in the note.

'Bad Jacob, bad Jacob.' Anna could not help complaining in her heart.

She felt that it was rather fun staying with the Shaws originally. However, why did it feel as if everything was boring beyond comparison as soon as Jacob left?

'Bad Jacob, it's best for you to come back soon. Otherwise, my fist is itching for a punch. Hmph!'

"Achoo!" Jacob Shelby sneezed loudly.

In front of him was a man who looked at him in a slightly uneasy manner. "You are the son of Sebastian Shelby and Jada Walter?"

"Yes." Jacob took out a large pile of documents from his pocket. "If you don't believe me, this is my bank account book, this is my birth certificate, and this is a photo of our family of three. This is the photo of my parents when they were young..."

The man looked at the large pile of items and could not help being dumbstruck in bewilderment. He hastily said, "I believe you, I believe you."

Jacob furrowed his brows and kept all these items. Then, he took out 10,000 dollars from his bag and placed it on the table right away.

The man's eyes lit up at once. He stuttered and asked," Why... Why are you doing this?"

Jacob looked at the man calmly. "I found that through my ways that you are my parents' colleague who worked at the same place 25 years ago. I'm here to ask you some questions here. I will pay you 10,000 dollars with every question that you answer."

10,000 dollars per question?

Could a great thing like this be true?

The man was incredulous. "It’s true that I used to work at the same place as your parents. Yet, it has been so many years ago. How did you find me?"

Jacob frowned. He was too lazy to explain this originally, but he succumbed and explained about it briefly because he needed something from this man.

"It's very simple. I looked for the owner of the construction site where my parents worked first. He gave me a name list after I talked to him. There were some flaws to the name list and there were

only 50 to 6 0 workers with documented records. 25 years had passed and the contact numbers and addresses of these people had changed tremendously. I searched for them one by one using the internet. During the search process, I utilized the ... technique, the search method included... also..."

Jacob used a series of professional terminologies when he approached the end of his sentence.

The man was getting a headache from listening to Jacob so he hastily said, "Stop stop stop, that’s enough."
