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

Chapter 499 New Breakthrough

Susan helped Mandy and Lucas settle down in their house.

She found a group of professional doctors and nurses to watch over Mandy around the clock.

Her illness was at the terminal stage, and there were very few things they could do about it. All the treatments could do nothing but merely prolong her already limited time.

Be that as it may, Mandy still decided to receive the treatment.

After all, she had not seen Luke yet, and she wanted to spend some more time with him.

Nobody would want to die if they were given a choice. Optimism was basically nothing but another name for compromises made in a helpless situation.

After helping Mandy and Lucas settle down, Julian led Susan to the laboratory right away.

"What is this place?" Susan asked curiously, as this was the first time she set her foot in the laboratory.

"A private hospital that I built," Julian answered in a prevaricate manner. "Most o f the facilities in this hospital are amongst the best in the world. I'd like you to have a thorough examination."

This laboratory was where Julian had sent Susan's blood for examination in the past.

However, Julian did not have confidence in the blood test result considering their current situation. Therefore, he had decided to bring Susan here for a thorough examination.

"I don't think it's necessary to have a thorough examination. I know my own body the best, and I have been feeling pretty well recently,” Susan said matter-of-factly.

Julian smiled. "Well, prevention is always better than treatment. It wouldn't do you harm to get a full physical check-up either. If you don't feel like it, I’ll do it with you.”

"Alright then." It was not a big deal, so Susan nodded and said yes.

To prevent Susan from getting suspicious, Julian did all the tests on the list with her.

They had to wait for a while before they could get the report, so Julian left with Susan.

Susan pushed the examination to the back of her head after she returned home.

Julian went back to the laboratory alone and asked for the result.

"How is the result?" he asked.

"It came back clean," the expert said. "The Errol Virus in Mrs. Shaw's body has been reduced by 50% compared to last time. If everything goes well, I can say that Mrs. Shaw will recover in a few more months."

"There is no problem at all?" Julian frowned.

"Well, that's what the report said," the expert replied cautiously. "However, our research on the Errol Virus is still at the initial stage, so there is some probability that we couldn't detect some anomalies in Mrs. Shaw's body. I remember that the person who treated Mrs. Shaw is an expert at this virus. Why don't you consult her instead, Mr. Shaw?"

Julian narrowed his eyes and said plainly," It’s fine. I was just asking. It's best if there aren't any problems at all."

"Well, that’s what the report says, so don’t worry, Mr. Shaw," the expert insisted.

"Alright," Julian responded, even though the frown remained on his face.

There was nothing wrong with the report. However, what if Willa’s technique was so great that she could even deceive the testing facilities?

That woman was like a ticking time bomb, and Julian had a hunch that she would explode at any moment.

He wondered what he could do to make her show her true colors.

Julian could not help but rub his aching

temples

After getting the photo of Willa’s teacher, h e had already sent someone to look into it. Unfortunately, there were too many people around the world, and looking for someone who had left Canada a long time ago was n o different from looking for a needle in a haystack. A few months had passed, yet he still had not made a breakthrough.

The same applied to Willa as well.

The entire incident was shrouded in a blanket of mist.

"Mr. Shaw, we found something." At that moment, a call came in.

"What have you found? Have you found out who Willa’s teacher is?" Julian hastily asked as his eyes glowed.

The person on the other side of the line was stunned by Julian's enthusiasm before saying, "Mr. Shaw, it’s not that easy to find a person with only a photo. We don't have any clues about the identity of Willa's teacher yet."

The light in Julian's eyes dimmed as he asked flatly, "So what have you found out then?"All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Even though Julian sounded less interested, the other person still went forward and said, "Mr. Shaw, we have discovered something about the things that Miss Lincoln did."

"Miss Lincoln?” Julian screwed up his eyes, as the name rang a bell.

Miss Lincoln was the one who had given the arsenic to Chessie, drugged his mother, and framed Susie.

He had always known there was a mastermind behind Miss Lincoln. Based o n the information that he had gathered, he had sent someone to Ningcheng City to look into it.

Initially, he had thought he would get a result in a few days. He had never expected that Miss Lincoln would be so good at hiding her past. It took his men a few months to find something.

"Spill the beans," Julian instructed him.

What he cared about the most right now was Willa's identity. However, since Miss Lincoln had harmed two of the most important women in his life, he could not let her off so easily.

"Roger," the other person said. "According t o our investigation, when Miss Lincoln was attending university in Ningcheng City, she used to use her body as a bargaining chip to get what she wanted. We looked through the people that she came into contact with. After ruling out several candidates who did not seem like the culprits, we have a final list. There are only three people on the list. These three people are likely to have Miss Lincoln's compromising photos, so we strongly believe that they all have a motive to do such a deed."

"Send me the list," Julian ordered him simply.

After a short while, he received a list on his phone.

He opened the list and narrowed his eyes.

The list contained the names and life experiences of the three candidates. Their motives were clearly stated in the list as well.

Amongst the three of them, one was an exemployee of Lanyard who had been fired b y him, the second one was the CEO of a rival suitor of Lanyard, and the last one was a designer. He and Susan had participated in the same designer competition, but unfortunately, due to his poor performance, he had not even entered the preliminary stage.

All three of them more or less had a motive of their own. However, Julian still could not help but frown.

After all, their motives were not convincing. Just because of these trivial matters, they had planned for three to four years to drug and kill someone close to him? Julian had no idea why, but it just sounded absurd to him.

He called the informant back. "Only these three people? Is there nobody else?"

"This is what we got," the other person said straightforwardly. Perhaps he noticed the dissatisfaction in Julian’s voice, as he said sadly after he thought for a moment. "I have investigated each of them thoroughly. Amongst those who are still alive, the three of them are the most obvious suspects."

"Amongst those who are still alive?” Julian suddenly noticed something. "What do you mean? Someone is already dead?"

The person hastily replied, "Yes, there is one such person. She had the ability to get the photo to threaten Miss Lincoln, and at the same time, she bore a deep grudge against you and Mrs. Shaw. The only problem is that she is dead."
