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

Chapter 350 Disappointment

Susan went upstairs straightaway the moment she got home, only to be stopped by a servant.

After she stopped her, the servant said reverently," Mrs. Shaw, Little Miss is not at home right now. Madam just came and said a few friends of hers wanted to meet Little Miss, so she brought her over to the Shaw Mansion."

"Mom was here?" Susan was surprised.

If her friends wanted to meet Chessie, then why had she not brought her friends over? Why would she deliberately take Chessie away while she was not around?

Chessie was small and was still nursing. What if she woke up and wanted to drink milk?

Susan had been nursing Chessie by herself ever since her birth.

"Let's go to the Shaw Mansion," Susan instructed the driver. Serenity tagged along with Susan, as she was worried as well.

Susan and Serenity soon arrived at the Shaw Mansion. However, when the servant told them that Madam Shaw was not in the mansion and had not returned yet since she had gone out, Susan and Serenity finally realized something was amiss.

"She hasn’t come back yet?” Susan asked nervously.

If Madam Shaw had not returned to the Shaw Mansion yet, then where was she right now? Where had she taken Chesney?

Chesney was small and fragile. She was still not at an age when she could go around freely. What if something happened to her? Susan dared not imagine the consequences.

She hastily called Madam Shaw, but she unfortunately did not answer her call.

Unwilling to give up, Susan called Madam Shaw again and again. Her hands and feet were turning cold. 1

"Susie!” Serenity grabbed Susan's hand. "Don't worry too much. She is Chesney's grandmother, so I suppose she wouldn't harm her."

"Yes, yes, yes. You're right. She is Chessie's grandmother. There’s no way she would harm her own granddaughter," Susan parroted. She tried to calm herself down by repeating it again and again, but the effect was minimal. Her voice was still shaking uncontrollably as she asked, "But... where did mom take Chessie?"

A myriad of terrible possibilities crossed Susan's brain, and she felt like she was on the verge of going mad.

Serenity picked up the phone and tried to get through t o Madam Shaw. However, woefully, Madam Shaw still did not pick up the phone.

Suddenly, a call came. Susan hastily answered it, but the voice that wafted from the other side of the line belonged to one of the servants of the house. "Mrs. Shaw, something terrible has happened. Madam Shaw was found passed out in an alleyway."

Susan felt her limbs turn cold for a second. "What happened? Where is Chessie?"

"The person who found Madam Shaw said he didn't see Little Miss around." The servant then added nervously, "Madam has been rushed to the hospital, but she hasn't awakened yet."

"Which hospital?" Susan shouted.

The servant gave her the address of the hospital, and Susan had the driver take her there.

While she was on the way, she received a call from Julian.

"Susie, I already know everything that's happening over there. I'm on my way back now. I'll arrive in about 3 hours." Julian sounded calm.

However, Susan was not. The moment she heard Julian's voice, something in her brain snapped and she screamed, "Julian! Chessie is missing! I can't find her!"

Julian tightened his grip on the phone. He could not show his nervousness in front of Susan. He took a deep breath and then said in a calm voice, "Don't worry, Susie. I've sent out all my men to run a citywide search throughout Ningcheng City. I'm sure Chesney is still in the city. Right now, you should go to the hospital and wait for mom. Ask her what's happened when she wakes up. I'm hoarding the plane now, so I won't be able to use my phone for around 3 hours. No matter what happens, promise me you will stay put and wait for me to come back." i

Susan was completely flummoxed. Some of her nervousness faded as Julian's calm and forceful voice wafted into her ear. She took a deep breath and nodded heavily. "Cot it. I will wait for you, Julian."

"Wait for me," Julian said simply before turning off his phone and boarding the plane.

Julian had never expected something like this to happen, and all he wanted to do right now was get back to Susan’s side.

However, he was just a normal human, not a god. Even though he owned a private jet, he still needed some time to return to Ningcheng City.

"Don't worry, Susie. Everything will be fine," said Serenity as she held Susan’s hands in an assuring manner.

"Yeah." Susan nodded, but her eyes were staring ahead.

'Chessie, promise mommy that you'll be okay.'

If something terrible happened to Chesney, Susan did not know what she would do. Perhaps she would go to

find her.

By the time Susan and Serenity arrived at the hospital, Madam Shaw had awakened. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Susan rushed to her bedside and shouted her questions out loud. "Mom, what happened? Where is Chessie? How did she go missing?"

Madam Shaw averted her eyes from Susan's intense gaze.

"Say something!" Susan shouted again.

Madam Shaw gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know. I took Chessie out, and someone suddenly knocked m e out. Then, when I woke up, Chessie was already gone."

"Where were you taking Chessie? Why would you take her to such a remote area all of a sudden?" More and more questions spilled out of Susan’s mouth as she stared intently at Madam Shaw. "Mom, you have to tell me everything from beginning to end. Chessie might b e in great danger right now, so I have to find her as soon as possible.”

Tears began to roll down Susan's cheeks as she spoke.

Madam Shaw hesitated for a while before speaking." Well, it's not important. I just thought that it would be better for Chessie and Julian to get a DNA paternity test, so I..."

"Mom, what the hell were you thinking?" Susan looked in disbelief at Madam Shaw.

"Better safe than sorry," Madam Shaw replied, though her voice was shaking slightly. "I heard that there was a private hospital that could do the DNA test, so I took Chessie there. However, as soon as I arrived at the hospital, somebody knocked me out. I don't know what happened afterward."

Susan was so enraged with Madam Shaw that she was shaking uncontrollably. She did not know what had gotten into Madam Shaw this time, but she snarled, "Are you out of your mind, mom? If Chessie isn't Julian's daughter, then who else could be her father? Besides, she’s still so small, yet you were going to take her to the hospital to draw blood?"

"The test only requires a very small amount of blood. She would have been fine," Madam Shaw replied.

"This is madness. Mom, you're out of your mind!" Susan felt like she was on the edge of exploding.

She had never expected that this would be the truth.

The flame of anger in Madam Shaw was reignited when she saw how furious Susan was. Driven by her rage, she snarled out, "Drop your act already, Susan Shelby! Only you know best whether or not Chessie is Julian’s daughter."

"What did you say?" Susan gnashed her teeth.

"What did I say?" Madam Shaw pulled a photo out of her pocket and threw it on Susan's face. "See for yourself."

While Susan was looking at the photo, Madam Shaw sneered at Serenity, "You better go and take a look as well so that you Wrights won't say I’ve been accusing her baselessly."

Piqued by her curiosity, Serenity craned her neck over and took a look.

Madam Shaw added, "I'm not afraid of letting people know anymore. Before Susan was pregnant, she went missing for a long period of time. It was only recently that I discovered that she was with the man in the photo all along while she was gone. Susan, do you dare to swear that there's nothing between you two?"

Susan's hand was shaking as she looked at the photo. The man in the photo was none other than Wayne.

There was nothing between her and Wayne, but the fact that Madam Shaw had accused her of cheating on Julian meant that Madam Shaw had never trusted her all along.

All of a sudden, a surge of disappointment filled Susan's heart.
