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

Chapter 584 The Woman That You Really Care About

"Choose, quick.” George and Oliver Wright were still urging him.

Susan Shelby did not look at Julian but she said softly, “Dad, Oliver, if I don't live, I shall entrust Chessie and Luca to you. Please, please, please make sure they grow up happily."

"Susie, what are you saying? How could the children grow up without a mother?

Everyone is waiting for your return." George's voice sounded shaky.

Susan only cracked a bitter smile softly.

If she could, she would like to live too.

However, could she entrust her hope to Julian Shaw?

Susan was no longer that naive.

"Tsk tsk tsk. What a touching scene." Julius Jenner laughed aloud. "However, I still have to be the cruel person to remind all of you that the three minutes will be up in 10 seconds. Julian, if you don't make a choice, I'm going to take both of them with me and kill them."

"Ten... nine... eight..."

Julius began counting down slowly.

When he counted to three, Julian's gaze changed. He finally said, "Willa! I choose Willa!"

Tears of wild joy streamed down Willa Doyle's face at once.

Susan was utterly disappointed for a moment, yet she had also expected this.

Oh? It seems that having a son is really important to you, huh?" Julius took a glance at Julian with interest.

"Julian!" Oliver could not stand it anymore. He threw a heavy punch at Julian's face in rage.

Julian did not avoid it or dodge. He just braced himself and took Oliver's few punches while still staring at Julius calmly. "Now, it's time for you to return the chosen person, right?"

"Of course." Julius’ face cracked into a ferocious smile. "I'm a man of my word!"

He shoved Willa forward with a push.

Julian’s heart raced for a moment. Could Julius be telling the truth? Was he really going to let Willa off?

"Julian." Willa dashed toward Julian in surprise and joy.

Julius scoffed once and then pulled out a gun and aimed it at Willa's back. At the same time, he pulled along Susan and leaned back right away.

These two actions were executed almost simultaneously.

Julian, who had been constantly monitoring Julius all this time, was simply scared out of his wits upon witnessing this scene.

Julius had never thought of letting anyone off since the very start!

Julian did not care if Willa lived or not, yet he could never let anything happen to Susie!

The three men on the scene charged toward Julius instinctively.

At that very moment, it felt as if Julian suddenly broke through some kind of limitation and made his way to the cliffside before the two people fell.

Julius had not expected that Julian could be so swift either. His hand swayed ever so slightly, and he fired a bullet at Willa's leg instead.

Willa screamed out in agony and tumbled to the ground, yet at that very moment, no one paid attention to her.

Julian tried to seize back Susan without the slightest hesitation.

Julius' gaze changed while a frantic smile flashed past his face. "Julian, you’re asking for this. Since you've made your way to me, you’re going to die with me."

Julius did not appear to do anything, yet the rock underneath their feet suddenly shook. Soon, it dropped.

The three people on the rock tumbled down along with the rock.

It sounded like a long story, but only less than three seconds had passed from the time Julian had charged over to them until the few of them dropped.

Oliver and George had only managed to see a bald patch of cliff side by the time they'd made their way over.

Their faces turned ghastly pale when they looked down the cliff!

The cliff of the Rockies Mountain was 50 to 60 meters tall. It was not particularly tall, but a straight drop from the top would be enough to cause the death of a person.

"Quick! Send everyone to search the bottom of the cliff. Also, pass me a rope. I'd like to climb down from here to take a look!" George shouted frantically.

Oliver stood up by using his arms and legs to make these arrangements swiftly.

Willa lay on the ground alone, stupefied from the shock.

Her mind was completely blank.

Had Julian... Had he and Susan fallen down together?

Were they... Were they dead?

Willa felt her heart wrench in pain abruptly.

She crawled her way to the cliffside and shouted over and over again, "Julian, Julian!"

Other than the echo, there was no response. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Willa was stunned for a moment before she finally lost control of herself and began bawling loudly.

George took a cold glance at Willa. He wished that he could push this woman over now and make her die with the rest.

However, his principles did not permit him to do something like this. Willa was also a pregnant woman!

Even though he wanted to send this woman to death in Susie's place, the child in her belly was innocent after all.

When the others made it to the peak, George ordered someone to take Willa away by force.

Then, he and Oliver wound a rope around each of their waists and climbed down the cliff slowly.

They wanted to see Susie if she was still alive or her corpse if she was dead.

They would never give up before they found Susie's corpse.

George and the others' actions were swift.

However, there was no trace of Julius, Julian, and Susan at all when they climbed down and searched the bottom of the cliff. It seemed as if they had vanished without a trace from the mortal world.

There was no sign of corpses either, which seemed to be good news.

However, the anxiety in George and Oliver’s hearts was not reduced in the slightest!

Even if they were still alive, they would certainly be wounded all over by now. Where else could they go under the circumstances?

They could only continue the search regardless.

A while ago, three people had fallen off the cliff simultaneously.

Julian had held on to Susan tightly out of instinct

He had then turned his back to face the ground and shield her from the possible impact.

Susan could not help being stunned for a moment when she found herself in a warm hug.

Julian?

Was he mad?

Was he not fine just having Willa with him? Why did he have to take the fall with her?

"Don't be scared, Susie. I'm here." Julian's deep voice reverberated in Susan's ears.

The sound of the wind whooshed by and made Susan's heart shake abruptly.

Bang!

Not long after they fell, Julian's body slammed into a tree's withered branch. He had shielded Susan thoroughly. Other than experiencing the small impact, Susan had not suffered any injuries.

"Julian, you..." Susan was about to speak.

However, the withered branch could not withstand both their weight. It cracked loudly and they continued to drop.

Julian looked down for a moment and then used the strength in his legs ever so slightly to change the direction of their landing.

They encountered a small protruding plant again not long after they fell.

The process was repeated like this as they headed downward. When they eventually landed on the bottom of the cliff, Julian let out a muffled grunt. He felt as if he could hear the sound of his shattered bones.

The huge impact had managed to break a few bones in him after all.

However, Susan had not suffered any direct injuries because she was constantly being protected by him.

"Julian, how are you?" Susan got up rapidly. She felt slightly dizzy and her body was aching indistinctly, yet this was all within the boundaries of what she could endure.

She was about to help Julian stand up when a pitch-black gun muzzle was aimed straight at her forehead.

Julius looked at her coldly. "Both of you managed to live. That's really lucky.

However, I wouldn’t act rashly now if I

were you.

A gloomy glint could be seen glistening in Julius' eyes.

He had planned the location of the drop.

There were numerous obstacles in this path, and he was confident that he could retreat safely. He had thought that Susan would die without a doubt, yet he had not expected that Julian would suddenly leap out and hold on to Susan during the drop. Even though Julian did not have experience living in the wilderness, he had sharp senses that had allowed him to find the only way out during the drop. If he had been alone, perhaps he would not have gotten injured so severely. What a waste that he kept protecting Susan!

"Julian, you deceived me." The corners of Julius' lips curled into a mocking smile. " The woman that you really care about is

Susan, right?”
