Chapter 455 Let Me Show You This
Everyone was surprised by Susan’s firm response, as it had exceeded their expectations.
Even Susan's family thought that Julian was kind of innocent and he reasonably deserved to be forgiven as he had tried his best.
Susan was clearly aware of everyone's thoughts. However, she did not explain herself further and clearly expressed her firm decision.
Julian began to drop by the Wright Mansion so often that Luna sympathized with him very much and secretly allowed him to enter their house. Unfortunately, Susan either left immediately when he arrived or locked herself in the room.
She refused to see Julian even just for a second.
Julian was very helpless and had almost given up.
He knew that Susie was still upset, but what was she upset about if it had nothing t o do with his mother?
He needed at least a clue to solve the riddle.
However, only now did Julian realize that h e knew nothing about Susan.
It was late at midnight, and Chesney had fixed her eyes on Susan as she was covered with a blanket. "Are you upset with daddy, mommy?”
Susan frowned as she heard her daughter's sweet voice. "Why did you say that?"
“Because you haven't talked to daddy for a very long time." Chesney added after a blink, "Tell me if daddy has done something wrong, okay? I’ll help you hit him, mommy.”
Susan felt a complicated emotion as she looked at her lovely daughter and rubbed her cheek. "Chessie, there's not necessarily always right or wrong. Perhaps, mommy's expectations for daddy were too high and our relationship was not strong enough to meet them."
In fact, Susan had thought about it carefully.
If she had not married Julian but had married someone else to compromise, she might have been able to forgive him easily.
However, she had married Julian, the man that she loved wholeheartedly and unconditionally. Hence, even tiny pain caused by Julian was certainly so much greater than any big trouble someone else could get her into.
Perhaps, she was too obsessed with this.
In fact, she had expected too much of Julian and had been unable to take the difference since that incident.
There would always be a scar even though the wound had recovered.
If they were to live with this awkwardness for the rest of her life, she would rather end things decisively.
Perhaps, the two of them could not escape suffering this grief, but she and Julian would both get to live new lives.
"What are you talking about, mommy?
Chessie can't understand," Chesney said cluelessly.
Susan answered with a smile, "It doesn't matter, my dear. Just tell daddy what I said. That will do.' "Oh no!" Chesney asked with an awkward expression, “How did you know that daddy got me to ask you this, mommy?”
"Because your mommy is smart!” Susan tickled Chesney's nose as she answered.
"I'm ticklish!” Chesney tried to escape and hid under the blanket until only her eyes were exposed. "Are you and daddy gonna live separately forever, mommy? What about Chessie?"
In fact, Chesney was Susan's biggest concern right now.
She had not spoken to Chessie about this before, but since Chessie had brought it up now, she patiently explained after some serious thought. "Daddy and mommy will solve this problem, Chessie. However, we will always be your parents no matter what happens in the future. You can stay with daddy for a few days if you miss him, and you're always welcome to come home and stay with me when you miss mommy. The reason we are parting is for you to have another home, certainly not the other way around. Don’t worry, my sweetheart."
Susan gently comforted Chessie as she played with her hair.
Chesney, who had initially felt insecure, seemed to be feeling better now.
"I got it, mommy." Chessie smiled as she answered.
"Alright, it’s bedtime now," Susan said with a smile.
"Can you sleep with me tonight, mommy?" Chesney looked at Susan innocently.
"Sure." Susan agreed with a smile. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Chesney immediately smiled contentedly.
Finally, Susan heaved a sigh of relief. She must handle this matter carefully so that it would not affect Chessie's growth.
The next day, Julian dropped by to take Chesney to the Shaw Mansion.
"Sigh..." Chesney heaved a sigh as she looked at Julian. "Daddy, it’s very likely that you have no chance according to what mommy told me."
"Hush! Stop acting like you know everything." Julian glimpsed at Chessie in annoyance but then helplessly asked," What did your mommy say? Did she tell you why she is upset?”
Chesney cleared her throat and then repeated exactly what Susan had told her i n a similar tone.
Julian frowned after listening.
What did she mean? Too many expectations?
He thought that he finally had a hint.
However, it was gone in the blink of an eye and Julian remained clueless.
"That’s it? Did she tell you anything else?” Julian continued asking.
"That's it." Chesney took a look at Julian again. "Adulthood is too complicated for m e. Well, based on my observation, mommy i s firm about her decision, as she looked very calm. I guess you don’t have a chance anymore."
Julian felt small chest pain.
"You look like trash, daddy.” Chesney sighed again. "Just so you know, a few people invited mommy out in the past few days. Although she rejected them, who knows if I'll have a second daddy one day?"
Chesney did not seem to be happy as she added, "Although I want mommy to be happy, I definitely don't want another father. After all, I don’t think my stepfather would be nice to me."
Julian was speechless as he looked at his daughter’s serious expression. "What is that about a stepfather? Where did you hear this?"
"Gosh.” Chesney rolled her eyes and then tapped Julian's shoulder, "To sum up, I don't want a stepfather, but you look like trash... I think I have to do something."
"You?" Julian looked at Chesney doubtfully.
His daughter was often a mischievous elf. God knew what creative ideas she had in her mind.
"Let me show you tonight. I'll get mommy t o sleep with you tonight." Chesney smiled a s she looked at Julian. "You better use this opportunity to make a younger brother for me. Then, mommy won't be able to escape anymore."
Julian was stunned for a second. "You even know how a younger brother is made?"
"Why are you so surprised?" Chesney said i n a relaxed manner. "You can get a seed for a younger brother and feed it to mommy. Would that work?"
Although Julian was depressed, he smiled a s he listened to his daughter's joke.
He tried to hold his laughter back as he asked, "So, tell me, what are you going to do to bring mommy over?" "You'll see," Chesney said with pride.
That night, Chesney called Susan.
When the call was connected, Chesney immediately switched her tone and said pitifully, "Mommy... I'm having a bad stomach ache..."
