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

Chapter 410 The Kingdom That Belongs To You

As Madam Shaw was speaking, she took a crystal hair pin out of the luggage that she had brought.

"Here, Chessie, take it. It’s Nana's gift to you." Madam Shaw looked at Chesney Shaw.

The crystal hair pin was shiny and looked rather cute.

Chesney felt rather confused about why a bad person would give her a present.

She could not help taking a glance at Susan anxiously. "Mommy?"

Susan took a deep breath, smiled, and rubbed Chesney’s head. "Take it."

The issue between her and Madam Shaw would remain between her and Madam Shaw. She would not channel this enmity into Chessie's young mind.

Chesney nodded and stretched out a hand to take it.

She considered it for a moment before she said in a childish voice, "Thank you for the present, Nana."

Even though her Nana had been a bad person in the beginning, daddy and mommy had told her that she had to say thank you when she received a gift.

Madam Shaw took a glance at Chessie with a pleased look flashing past her eyes. "She still knows how to say thank you, so she isn't considered fully ruined yet.

The genes of the Shaws are still the strongest." "F*ck." Anna Wright could not refrain from rolling her eyes. "Just because people address you as Madam Shaw here and there, you really think of having 'Shaw' as your last name now?"

Madam Shaw’s original last name was Carter. Everyone had gotten used to addressing her as Madam Shaw after she had married into the Shaw Family.

Anna's tone of speech sounded mocking and displeased Madam Shaw, who was about to speak.

Serenity Wright chuckled and continued this topic of conversation. "Anna, she is a senior member of the family. You shouldn't go overboard with your remarks."

"How have I gone overboard?" said Anna curiously. Since when was Serenity such a kindhearted person?

"Frankly, the genes of the Shaws are genuinely strong," said Serenity in all apparent seriousness.

Madam Shaw was a little surprised too to see Serenity suddenly put in a good word for her. She could not help curling her lips into a smile.

However, she listened to Serenity, who had already continued speaking.

"Think about this. Despite Madam Shaw's manners, she actually gave birth to a man like Julian after marrying Mr. Shaw! Is that not because of the strong genes of the Shaws? If Julian were to take after her..." Serenity could not help shaking her head as she spoke. 1

Anna could not help laughing as well. "That makes sense, so to speak. It’s good that the genes of the Shaws are strong. Otherwise..."

Anna had also begun to shake her head as she looked at Madam Shaw.

These two people were making taunting and jeering remarks. Madam Shaw wanted to stamp her foot in rage.NôvelDrama.Org © content.

She wanted to call out to Julian Shaw subconsciously yet she recalled Susan's earlier remarks. It made her feel rather strange to be calling for Julian all the time.

Madam Shaw suppressed her anger and looked at Luna Harris. "Luna, is this how you've brought up your daughters?"

"What’s wrong with the daughters I brought up? They didn’t toss you out right away, and that is considered the utmost respect that they've shown you," said Luna nonchalantly. "It's not a festivity or a holiday today, yet you're here without giving prior notice. That’s considered a breach of contract. Had it not been Chessie's birthday and had I wanted to make a scene, I would have taken you to court with the contract!"

When Luna mentioned the contract, Madam Shaw could not help behaving herself.

She realized that she was almost incapable of having the upper hand when Susan's family members were

around in Skyking City.

Madam Shaw's voice weakened as well. "I'm only here to see Chessie. There's no need to cause such a huge scene by taking me to court, right?"

"Don’t worry. We won't go to court unless it's a last resort. We are all families with a reputation, so how bad would that make us look?" said George Wright with a smile. 1

"Right, right, right," answered Madam Shaw hastily.

"Generally, if there's any issue, we prefer to settle it in private." George's smile grew even deeper.

'Settle it in private...'

Madam Shaw could not refrain from shivering in fear.

She could not help remembering being beaten up while her head was covered previously. The Wrights were brutal. If she were to offend them accidentally, she might be beaten up again!

Madam Shaw made the decision to yield after checking out George and Oliver Wright's strong, muscular physiques.

Anyhow, the main purpose of her trip was not to make things difficult for Susan either.

She was here to push Susan to bear a second child soon.

This request was not excessive by any means.

At this thought, Madam Shaw suppressed the

discomfort in her chest and forced herself to smile and say, "We’re all family, so what kind of issue would we face anyway? There's no issue, there’s no issue. Everything is alright. It's Chessie's birthday today. Let's not spoil the fun by talking about this."

"It’s good that you know that," said Luna with a spurious smile.

Susan felt warm and fuzzy in her heart upon seeing her family members standing up for her.

Her family members protected her just like they protected Chessie. The feeling was wonderful.

Madam Shaw realized that she would not benefit from the situation if she were to continue to cause trouble. She thus forced a smile and diverted the topic of conversation. "I heard that we're throwing a birthday party for Chessie at night?”

Madam Shaw softened her attitude, so Susan did not bring up the previous incident anymore for the sake o f Julian. She nodded nonchalantly. "Yes.”

"Have the invitations been sent out?" Madam Shaw attempted to look for topics of conversation with great effort to ease up the atmosphere.

"They were sent out a few days ago," answered Susan.

This question-and-answer process was repeated a few times. The atmosphere was already eased at the very least.

Julian Shaw tugged at Susan’s hand in gratitude and

said, "The manor where the party is taking place at night has already been prepared. Let’s head over there first."

"Manor?" said Madam Shaw with curiosity.

Julian picked up Chessie with a doting gaze in his eyes. "The construction of the manor began three years ago and was just completed two months ago. The manor was specially built for Chessie, and today i s the first day that it is open to the outside world."

"It was specially built for Chessie? She is just a girl. Isn't that a little too..." Madam Shaw was halfway through her sentence when she felt many hostile gazes. She cowered and stopped speaking knowingly.

Before Madam Shaw could finish her sentence, Susan acted as if she had not heard anything to begin with." Let's go then. The guests will be arriving at dusk, so it'll be good if we make some preparations in advance."

"Let's go." Chesney was immediately elated.

Madam Shaw followed them, and her attitude calmed down as well. Susan did not comment further but she allowed Madam Shaw to join them in the manor.

Chesney could not help cheering in the car when she saw the manor in the distance.

"Daddy, daddy, a castle! Is that a castle?” Chesney pointed ahead with shiny eyes.

Julian laughed and rubbed her head. "That is a castle.

It's a castle that belongs to you, Princess Chessie.”

"I am a little princess." Chesney could not help giggling.

Upon arriving at the manor, Chesney got out of the car and began checking out the place joyously.

The manor looked simply like a fairytale wonderland.

Statues of her favorite cartoon characters could be found everywhere. The place was surrounded by a moat with swans swimming in it.

"Welcome to your personal kingdom, Your Royal Highness." A servant dressed in knight attire extended a hand toward Chesney with a smile.
