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

Chapter 446 Keep Your Dignity Or Get Out of Here; It Is Your Call

Upon looking at Madam Shaw, Julian sighed slightly. "Mom, I'll ask them to go easy on you, so all you have to do right now is stay at the Public Security Bureau for a few days while I go to beg the Wrights to let you out.”

"Beg them?" Madam Shaw frowned. "Why d o you have to beg them? Don’t go, Julian."

"Don’t go?" Julian lifted his brow. "If the Wrights refuse to let you go, although it wouldn't be life imprisonment, they could a t least make you spend a few years in prison. Mom, don't you love to watch TV series the most? I assume that you should know better than anyone what life in prison is like.”

Madam Shaw's body shook a little, and she started to feel scared. She bit her lower lip, but it took her a long while to begin talking. Her voice was trembling, and her tone was laden with fear. "Have we run out of options already?" Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

"Exactly," Julian replied, making Madam Shaw's face turn grim.

Julian knew Madam Shaw had already started to feel scared. He raised his brow and pressed on. "Mom, if I want the Wrights to let you out, I have to show some sincerity. This incident is your fault to begin with, so I hope you can apologize to the Wrights. Besides, when it comes right down to it, George is venting his anger on you because of what we did to Susie.

Therefore, the person you have to apologize to this time is Susie." "What? You want me to apologize to Susan?" Madam Shaw frowned again. "She i s my daughter-in-law. There is no way I..." "Mom, are you saying that you don't want m e to divorce Susie anymore? You said she i s your daughter-in-law. If you still want me to divorce Susie, then she is no more related to the Shaws and doesn't have to show respect to you anymore." Julian interrupted her.

Madam Shaw clamped her jaw tight. Even though she did not say anything, she did not feel comfortable inside.

In any case, she would rather die than admit her mistake in front of Susan.

As if he could read her mind, Julian let out a sigh. "Mom, it's okay if you refuse to apologize to the Wrights. I will go and try to talk to them, but I'm not holding out too much hope. I am pretty certain that they will not say yes, and I'm not sure when I could get you out of here.

Even though Madam Shaw was afraid, her dignity did not permit her to lower her head and apologize to Susan.

Julian was not in a hurry. After he talked to Madam Shaw, he left.

Before leaving, he asked the people in the Public Security Bureau to take good care of his mother. However, no matter how meticulously they took care of her, she was a proud woman, so being imprisoned in the Public Security Bureau would be enough to make her go crazy.

Julian turned his head around to look at the Public Security Bureau. He then braced himself and left directly. No matter what, his mother owed Susan an apology. Therefore, he was going to use this opportunity to force his mother to apologize to Susan.

Even though he was worried about her as well because she was locked up in the Public Security Bureau, he had made all the proper arrangements and was certain that her life inside the Public Security Bureau would not be too hard. The trade-off would be her freedom and dignity.

After he left the Public Security Bureau, he hesitantly called Luna.

"Anything?” Luna's voice was cold. "If you want me to release your mother, then forget about it. She has to stay in the Public Security Bureau for at least a year."

"Oh? A year? I thought you guys were going for more than that. In the end, you are only going to lock her up for a year?” Julian lifted his brow.

Luna was kind of surprised to hear Julian's words. Thus, she pressed on. "What do you mean by that?"

"Mom, I don't care if you believe me or not. From now on, I will not allow anyone to bully Susie," Julian said softly. "I need your help. After this, I promise that my mom will not make things difficult for Susie anymore. Instead, she might do her best to please Susie."

Luna narrowed her eyes and replied indifferently, "Susie is not related to you anymore. We don't really care how your mom treats her. After all, I will not give her a chance to get close to Susie."

After talking tough, Luna switched the topic and said, “However, you can tell me what kind of help you need from us."

Julian explained the plan he had told Jacob and Seth about to Luna once again.

"You... You are really hard on yourself, Julian." Luna was shocked when she heard Julian’s plan.

He really loved Susan a lot since he was willing to go this far for her.

Julian did not respond. He just asked, “Are you in or not?"

"Of course I’m in. Why not? It won't do any harm to me anyway," Luna said with a smile. "But Julian, let me inform you of something. Our Susie is pretty and has a good character. The moment the news of her divorce spreads, I'm sure a lot of people will come after her. Although I understand that you’re still in love with Susie after hearing your plan, Susie is over you already. No matter what you're planning, I suggest you pick up your pace. Otherwise, I don’t know when Susie will come across another man."

Julian could not help becoming a little nervous despite the fact that he knew Luna was bluffing.

'Damn it! We haven't even divorced yet, and someone is already going after Susie. I have to hurry up. I need to execute my plan immediately.'

As Julian began to put his plan into motion. Madam Shaw could not stand it anymore after being locked up for three days straight.

"Is there really no other way to let me out, Julian?" Madam Shaw looked at Julian, her voice filled with eagerness.

Even though no one was giving her a hard time in the confinement room, staying there was not comfortable at all. Madam Shaw had lived a comfortable life so far and could not stand this anymore.

If it were not for her pride, she would have given up a long time ago.

"Unfortunately, no." Julian sighed. "I have talked to the Wrights, but they said that unless you apologize sincerely to them, they will not consider letting you out. If they do not... I guess you will have to spend a few years in prison."

A flash of fear crossed Madam Shaw's eyes.

She could not stand it anymore after staying three days in the confinement room. She would rather die than spend a few years in prison.

"I..." Madam Shaw took a deep breath and finally gave in. "I'll go and apologize to them. If that is what they want."

After all, apologizing was easier than going to jail.

A light flashed across Julian’s eyes. Then, h e said, “I will make the arrangements then. Remember, mom, you have to be sincere when you apologize to them when they come here. Don't do anything stupid. If you infuriate the Wrights, I don’t think there is anyone who could save you anymore."

"Alright, alright," Madam Shaw answered, feeling crestfallen.

She no longer cared about her pride since she was going to apologize. Thus, it was better to swallow her pride and get out of this sh*thole as soon as possible.
