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

Chapter 557 The Wedding

A disgusted look appeared in Julian Shaw's gaze and then vanished immediately. He said coldly, "Oh, what a coincidence."

"I... I didn’t know either." Willa Doyle looked at him in grief. "Julian, you can see with your eyes how I have felt about you for the past two years. Have I ever coerced you into doing anything that you were unwilling to do? I've been constantly trying to be sincere in exchange for your sincerity. I really had no idea about today's incident.”

"So you're saying that everything was planned by my mom?" Julian raised an eyebrow.

Willa hesitated for a moment before she said, "Madam Shaw also told me before that you still haven't had a son yet and she is too ashamed to meet Sir Shaw in death. She... Is it because of... Is it because of..."

Willa spoke vaguely, trying to blame the entire incident on Madam Shaw.

She had made up her mind that Madam Shaw would certainly help bear the blame in order to have a grandson.

Otherwise, if she were to trigger Julian's detest, there was no telling if the child would be born or not.

"Is that so?" Julian did not express belief or disbelief, but his gaze became even deeper.

Willa clenched her teeth and said softly," Julian, I have no regrets for offering my body to you regardless. I would not regret bearing a child for you either."

Julian did not answer. Instead, he turned around and opened the door expressionlessly.

Madam Shaw had an ear against the door, as she had been eavesdropping. When the door was suddenly opened, she stumbled and almost fell.

She stabilized her body with great effort and then looked at Julian in slight embarrassment. "Oh, Julian... You..."

Julian took a glance at her nonchalantly and left right away.

Madam Shaw felt rather guilty in her heart as she gazed after Julian's departing silhouette. However, she felt even more excited!

She had clearly heard that Julian and Willa had gotten really intimate earlier!

She would get a grandson soon.

After this momentary excitement, Madam Shaw looked at Willa coldly. "I can refrain from fussing about the nonsense you told Julian earlier. However, I expect you to fulfill your part and bear a child!"

"Don't worry.” Willa cracked a confident smile.

The medication was supposed to improve fertility, and today was also her most fertile day. Thus, the probability of getting pregnant was over 80 percent.

Willa could not help rubbing her belly.

She would bet her future on this child.

Madam Shaw took a look at Willa's belly with an eager glint flashing past her eyes. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

The plan had to succeed this time.

"You can stay at my place for the following period. I will send someone to take care of you meticulously. If you really did manage to become pregnant, we can't allow anything to happen to you. Do you understand?” said Madam Shaw.

"I will abide by your orders, madam," answered Willa at once.

The old woman was still Julian’s mother after all. Even though she would not be living for more than a few more years given her health condition, it would be beneficial for Willa to form a good relationship with her.

However, there was no need for her to curry favor with this old woman in a rush either. As long as she could give birth to a son, the old woman would worship her.

In the future, her child would grow up in an environment with lots of love and he would inherit everything the Shaws had when he grew up and helped Julian make StarTech Co. successful.

As for Susan and her money-losing stock daughter, how could their life compare to even one- thousandth of her son's life?

The more Willa thought about it, the prouder she was. She could not help cracking a brilliant smile.

Next, just as expected, Willa moved in with Madam Shaw.

Julian found this superb. He speculated that she must surely be pregnant, as Willa stopped forcing him to spend five hours a day with her.

Julian was naturally delighted that he did not need to see Willa’s disgusting face anymore.

There was no way to tell whether she was pregnant or not in just a few days.

Julian was not in a rush either. If Willa had not managed to get pregnant this time, he would figure out a way to make arrangements for a second and third time until the woman got pregnant.

He pushed the thought of this incident aside for the time being. The corners of Julian's lips cracked into a faint smile as he looked at the red wedding invitation.

It was Jacob Shelby and Anna Wright's wedding day today.

He believed that Susie and the two kids would be at the wedding already.

He wanted to send his blessing as well, but his presence was not welcome in a setting like that, so it would be best if he did not make an appearance.

Of course, he would need to send a wedding gift in private.

The relationship between Jacob and Anna had finally achieved fruition. He hoped that, unlike him and Susie, they would not experience so many twists and turns after they got married.

At the wedding venue, Jacob and Anna stood from their seats and made a toast to the guests.

"How is one glass of champagne enough? Shouldn't the bride and groom exchange a sweet kiss now?" The host roused the crowd.

The guests followed along and created a clamor.

"Kiss, kiss, kiss." Chessie urged them with a blushing face. It seemed that she was even more excited than the bride and groom.

"You have no sense of shame." Lucas Shaw could not help casting a side glance at her.

Chessie pretended that she had not heard that and continued to hoot.

Jacob and Anna exchanged a glance. Their gazes were filled with love and sentiment for each other.

They stared into one another's eyes and then kissed.

The crucial moment was finally there.

Chessie was about to watch when someone suddenly covered her eyes.

"Hey, hey, hey." It was a pair of tiny hands. Chessie recognized it at once. "Stinky Luca, what are you doing?"

"Stop fussing. A child who watches adults kissing will get pregnant," Lucas said in all apparent seriousness. "I won't look, so you shouldn't too."

Watching adults kissing would get one pregnant?

Chessie was startled. Just as expected, she calmed down.

Susan Shelby could not help laughing upon noticing the gibberish conversation between the two kids.

She had been planning to cover the eyes of the two kids initially. After all, a scene like this was still, cough-cough, inappropriate for young children.

She had not expected that Luca would take action faster than her.

Aside from covering Chessie’s eyes, he shut his eyes tightly as well like an obedient child.

Lucas kept covering Chessie’s eyes and listened to the sounds in their surroundings. He reckoned that the segment was over and finally loosened his hands.

Chessie blinked to get used to the lighting for a moment. Then, she looked at Jacob and Anna with an envious expression." Aunty Anna is so beautiful today. Mommy, when will I become as pretty as her?"

"When you grow up," said Susan with a smile.

"I shall grow up faster then.” Chessie had a yearning expression on her face. "I wonder if my groom will be more handsome than Uncle Jacob when I'm a grownup."

Lucas considered this for a moment and then said with a serious expression, "I believe so."

"Stinky Luca, how can you know?” Chessie pouted and looked at Lucas.

Lucas said in a boastful manner. "I look really handsome now, so I will certainly look more handsome than Uncle Jacob when I grow up. Then, you can be my bride."

"Hmm?" Chessie considered it carefully for real.

Susan, who was amused, could not help saying, "You're siblings. You can't marry each other in the future."

"Can’t we?" Lucas had a conflicted expression on his face. "Chessie, where are you going to find a groom that is more handsome than Uncle Jacob? Mommy, she’s not going to be able to get married."

Chessie was stunned for a moment before she raised the doll in her hand and smashed it against Lucas. "You’re the one that's not going to get married, you’re the one that's not going to get married..."

On the stage, Jacob and Anna had the brightest smiles on their faces.

Below the stage, the two children were fighting naively.

Susan could not help cracking a gentle smile.

It had truly been a long time since she had been in such a good mood.

As long as that person or any news related to him did not appear, she believed that she should be able to stay happy.
