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

Chapter 506 Long Time No See

"Don’t worry too much, Susie." George comforted her. “The Dark Night hasn't found Luke yet. They don't know that Luke revealed the news to us, so it goes without saying that they wouldn't take any countermeasures. In the past, we were the ones shadowboxing, but the situation has changed. Now, they are kept in the dark. We are in Canada, and our team is the strongest. There is no reason for this operation to fail."

"Alright then." Susan nodded, although she still felt nervous.

She knew there was a high probability of saving Luke, but Mandy could not wait for so long If something went sideways and the rescue was delayed a bit, she might not be able to see Luke in the end.

As Susan had ants in her pants, Oliver's call came.

George answered the call.

After he hung up, George did not beat around the bush. A grin immediately spread across his face. "The extraction was a success. Luke is safe, and all the Dark Night personnel has been contained. Right now, he is on his way to the police station to give his statement. When he is done, he will be free to go. I suppose it will take him around two hours at most.”

"That’s awesome!" shouted Susan as an exhilarated expression appeared on her face. She immediately pulled Julian up and said, "We are going home now, dad."

After they rushed back to the Wright Mansion, Susan stormed up the stairs in joy to look for Mandy.

Mandy was lying weakly on the bed, barely able to move.

"Mandy, Luke is in Canada. Let's go and meet him now." Susan approached Mandy with a happy expression on her face.

"He is back?" Mandy shot up from the bed as a flash of exaltation flitted across her eyes.

There had been no news of Luke for a few days straight, and she had thought Susan was merely comforting her when she'd said she was going to arrange a meeting for her and Luke. She had not expected that Luke would really return to Canada.

“Yes, it’s true. You can see him in two hours," Susan said excitedly.

"Two hours? That's fast..." Mandy relapsed into a trance.

"Come on, let me help you up. We can go meet him now,” Susan said.

"Hold on." Mandy chickened out. She took a small mirror from the head of the bed and studied herself meticulously in the mirror. Then, her face suddenly contorted in disgust.

"Susie, I... I'm too ugly... He might not be able to recognize me...”

Susan's heart clenched when she saw the expression on Mandy's face. She pitched her voice low and said softly, "How about I ask someone to help you put on some make -up?"

"Okay." Mandy nodded, her eyes glowing.

In any case, she wanted to meet Luke in her best condition.

Age had left plenty of marks on Mandy's face. Even if Susan found her the best make -up artist, a make-up artist could only restore one-third of the appearance she'd had three years ago.

When she looked in the mirror, Mandy was not satisfied with her look. However, she knew that this was the best she could do right now.

Before she left to meet Luke, Mandy went to see Lucas.

Lucas was taking his afternoon nap.

His delicate brows were deeply furrowed as if something was bothering him.

Mandy approached him and smoothened the creases on his forehead. Then, she bent over and planted a kiss on his cheek.

The only chance she had right now to look at Lucas gently was when he was asleep.

After she closed the door to Lucas’ room, Mandy offered Susan a smile and said, " Let's go."

"Alright." Susan then helped her walk outside.

Julian drove the car himself, while Susan accompanied Mandy by sitting in the back.

Mandy kept looking out of the window along the way, and there was an anxious expression on her face.

"Is he at the police station now? Is he coming out soon?" Mandy asked.

"Yes, he will come out soon," Susan responded patiently.

"How is my hair and make-up? Does it still look good?" Mandy asked again after a short while

Yeah, you look gorgeous," Susan replied softly.

"You don't have to lie to me. I know how bad I look right now." That being said, Mandy still felt happy about it.

Waiting was always torturous. Finally, Julian and the two women arrived at the police station. Coincidentally, a few police officers were escorting a man out of the police station.

The moment she saw the man, Mandy felt like time had stopped.

She looked with greedy eyes at the face that had appeared in her dreams countless times.

There was a voice shouting and screaming madly inside her heart.

Luke. That was Luke Jenkins.

Even though there was some distance

between them and the man's appearance was not clear, Mandy knew with certainty that the man was Luke.

The man she had missed and loved her entire life was now standing right in front of her.

"It's Luke!" Susan only realized after Mandy that the man was Luke. Thus, she hastily said, "Let's go out and meet him.”

"I...” Mandy shrank back a little.

She had been frantically trying to see the man before this day. However, now that he was standing in front of her, she did not know why but she was suddenly fraught with fear.

Would Luke be happy to see her?

Probably not.

In the past, when she had still been a

pretty woman, Luke had refused to even spare her a single glance. She was very ugly right now, so she was certain that Luke would be even more disgusted by her.

"What's wrong?" Susan was confused.

Mandy took a deep breath and said softly," Let’s go."

One of her feet was in the grave, so she wanted to see Luke and talk to him no matter what. It would only do justice to the suffering that she had experienced for the past three years.

Susan helped Mandy get out of the car.

"You guys go first. I'll join you after I park the car," Julian said.

"Alright," Susan replied.

"Don't talk to him while I’m not around," Julian added gloomily.

Susan rolled her eyes at Julian but did not say anything. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Tension soon filled Julian from head to toe. He hastily started his car and went to park on the side.

Luke was talking to a police officer, so he did not notice that Susan and Mandy were walking toward him.

Mandy's lips were quivering. She wanted to say something, but no words came out of her mouth.

"Luke!” Susan decided to help her by calling out his name.

Luke turned around and his eyes glowed when he saw Susan. "Susie?"

He did not notice Mandy at all.

A sense of indescribable bitterness spread in Mandy's heart.

"Luke, look who is here,” Susan said as she pushed Mandy forward.

Luke squinted to look at Mandy, but it took him a long while to realize who she was.

After a while, he said hesitantly, "You are... Mandy?"

"Yeah. It's me." Mandy was so nervous that her body was shaking.

"You..." Luke could not describe how he was feeling about seeing Mandy again. He did not know what to say either.

"Long time no see, Luke." At that moment, Mandy suddenly calmed down.
