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

Chapter 583 Who Do You Choose

"It’s fine if you want to die, just let the people go first,” said Julian Shaw coldly with a stiff, upright back.

Julius Jenner couldn't help laughing. "Isn’t it a little lonely for me to die alone? I'm fortunate to have two beauties to accompany me today and I won't be too lonely on my way to hell.”

"Julian, save me." Willa Doyle's heart was racing. She could not refrain from shrieking aloud over and over again.

Her piercing voice sounded just like a saw that hurt one's eardrums.

Julius’s expression changed drastically at once. He gave Willa a slap without any expression.

“Shut up."

Willa shut up in fear.

The world was quiet now.

Julius looked at the shaky Willa then looked at Susan Shelby before he suddenly smirked. "Julian, speaking of which, the majority of the credit of destroying the Dark Night is due to you, you see."

Julius suddenly looked toward Julian with icy coldness permeating from his sharp gaze.

"Yes," acknowledged Julian without the slightest hesitation. "Let them go and you can seek your revenge on me."

"I'm afraid that you won't be in sufficient pain if I were to take revenge on you straight." Julius laughed and suddenly pulled up Susan and Willa. Then, he brought both of them to the cliff with him.

Susan’s considerably calm face turned pale beyond her control.

In this position, Julius would only need to move his hand ever so slightly and she would go tumbling down the cliff.

Susan was still capable of remaining calm with great effort while Willa was already shaking profusely.

"What are you trying to do actually?" Julian could not refrain himself from going forward anymore.

"Don't move, any of you. Anyone who dares to come forward, I'll take them with me to die right away," Julian sneered.

George wanted to seize the opportunity when Julian and Julius were talking to save the hostages in secret originally.

However, Julian shot a cold, stern glance at him and made him stop.

"Tell me your conditions-what do you want in exchange for letting them off?" Julian clenched his teeth.

Julius suddenly cracked into an interested smile upon seeing the tense Julian." Julian, let's play a game. There are two people here—one of them is your wife while the other is pregnant with your child in her belly. I'm very curious. Which one of them is more important to you?"

"What do you mean?"

Julius said, "Out of these two people, you can only choose one. The person that you choose will live while the other will die with me. Alright, I shall give you three minutes to decide now. Is it going to be Susan or Willa? Julian, you can make your decision now. Your decision will decide which one of them gets to live. It's best of you to consider with great caution.”

Upon saying that, Julius's face cracked into a malicious smile.

Julian would decide who gets to live...

Willa screamed aloud frantically as if she was grasping the final life-saving straw. " Save me, Julian. I can die but you can't let anything happen to the child. It's your only son.”

"Julian, consider it properly.” George and Oliver Wright were staring at Julian with a nervous expression.

Susan didn’t utter a word despite her ghastly pale face. In fact, she had even turned her head to the side and looked at the cliff that stretched a thousand miles below.

She had already lost all hope in Julian. The man had already abandoned her, so why would he choose her at this exact moment?

She had not expected that she would actually die with the madman Julius today.

Countless thoughts ran through Susan's mind.

If she were to die, her family members would be sad, especially her mother. Her health was not so good these days. Susan could only hope that her father would console her mother more.

Jacob Shelby and Anna Wright still had each other as support.

Serenity Wright had always been a strong-willed person. She would certainly be able to take care of herself.

Her father and elder brother were men so she believed that they would certainly be able to pull through with the determination trained from their experience in the military.

The only people that she could not bear to part with the most were her two children...

If she was gone, how sad would Chessie and Luca be?

A thick look of unwillingness to part emerged in Susan's eyes.

"One minute has passed,” said Julius nonchalantly.

Julian's fists were tightly clenched and his body was as stiff as a statue.

He was given a choice that only one person could live.

If Julius was telling the truth, he would choose Susie without the slightest hesitation, of course.

Yet... Julius hated him so much, so would Julius still tell the truth? How could Julius be so kind as to let him make the important choice of deciding who to leave alive?

Perhaps, whoever he chose, Julius would drag along that person to die on the contrary.

Or perhaps, it was just a game for him and he was not planning to let anyone off! Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

A choice that seemed simple drenched Julian’s forehead in sweat despite the winter weather.

"Susan-Susan, he’s choosing Susan," said George with an anxious expression.

"Two minutes passed. On the other hand, it's useless to let others decide for you," said Julius calmly.

Oliver couldn't help looking toward Julian." Julian, do you still need to hesitate? Make the choice, quick."

Julian pursed his lips and didn't utter a word.

"Julian, I have your child in my belly,” shouted aloud Willa.

Julian disregarded her. He closed his eyes and contemplated.

He believed that Julius loathed him to his bones. In that case, the person he chose would be the person in real danger under most circumstances.
