Chapter 606 Ending (2)
Susan was still knitting her scarf in a leisurely manner. On one particular night. after everybody had gone to bed, Julian climbed up from his bed silently. By using the dim light as his only light source, he began to study how to knit a scarf.
One had to reap what one had sowed. Since he had started all of this, he had to end it himself no matter how difficult it was.
Julian could not fail. He was the CEO of a company after all. He was a fast learner, so it took him only three days to learn how to knit a scarf. Then, he finished knitting a scarf by himself in two nights.
He wore the scarf to the company the next day.
Even though it was still early to wear a scarf and he was sweating all over, the praise he received from his employees fed his vanity so he felt that it was worth it.
Suddenly, his secretary called him.
"Mr. Shaw, Mrs. Shaw is here to see you."
"Susie? Let her in then.
The secretary hesitated for a while and then said, "Mrs. Shaw said that she is here to give you the scarf..."
‘Give me... the scarf?”
Julian felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning.
"Mr. Shaw, Mrs. Shaw is at the door," the secretary said.
Then, the door to his office was pushed open.
Susan walked into his office with a bag in her hand. When she saw the scarf around his neck, she asked with eyes filled with surprise, "That scarf..."
Julian tried to hold himself together and said, "Didn't you already give me one, Susie? Why did you make a new one? Do you know how many scarves we have in the house?"
As he said that. he kept sending eye signals to Susan. "Is that true? I don't think these two scarfs were knitted in the same way. They look different to me." Seth appeared out of nowhere and chuckled. "Stop speaking like you know how to knit a scarf." Julian reprimanded him as he stared daggers at Seth.
However, Seth paid him no mind. He went forward and took Susan’s scarf. Then, he began comparing the two scarves. "The one you are wearing obviously has a more exquisite pattern and looks much better than this one. Did you buy the scarf yourself?"
Gritting her teeth, Susan looked at Julian and hissed, "So you didn't like the one I made for you, huh?" Julian was flustered. "Susie, no, that's not true. This one was knitted by me. I just wanted to..."
As Julian was explaining, Seth threw his head back and let out a boisterous laugh.” Ha ha ha ha! Can you believe it? Mr. Shaw, the CEO of StarTech, knitted a scarf for himself. I didn’t know our boss had this kind of talent. This is the funniest thing I've ever heard in my life!"
Julian's face was livid with
embarrassment.
Everyone in the company was stifling their laughter as well.
Well, they could not be blamed. The image of Julian holding a yarn needle to knit the scarf was too funny to imagine. For a moment, the entire office was filled with giggles.
Red-faced, Julian shot up from his chair and snarled, "Shoo! Shoo! Get out of my office!”
He closed the door to his office and shut Seth and the other people's laughter outside.
"Susie, listen to me, I..."
Susan went closer to look at Julian's scarf and said sadly, "Well, Seth is right. This one indeed looks better than the one I knitted.” "I simply Knitted it..."
“Your scarf looks better than mine even if you simply knitted it." Susan looked even more depressed.
Since Julian had seemed like he'd urgently needed a scarf, she had picked up her pace and rushed to make one for him. However, she had never expected that the one Julian had knitted in secret would look better than the one she had knitted in a rush.
Susan began to question her talent.
"Don't say that. Yours is the best.” Julian untied the scarf wrapped around his neck and then gently put on the one that Susan had knitted for him as a fawning smile crossed his lips.
Susan let out a light chuckle while looking at him. "You silly man. Take the scarf off. You're sweating all over.”
"I want to wear it now,” Julian said matter-of-factly.
As she looked at his attire, which did not match the weather, Susan felt her heart fill with warmth.
“Julian, aside from bringing you the scarf, I came because I have another thing to tell you." Susan cleared her throat "What is it?" Julian asked curiously.
Susan's face suddenly turned pink as she said softly, "I'm pregnant.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Julian was stunned.
He froze on the spot, unable to say a word.
Susan waited patiently for him to digest the news. However, although she waited for a long while, he still did not say anything. She could not help poking Julian’s cheek. “What are you thinking
about?"
It was only then that Julian came back to his senses. He did not look as happy as Susan had expected, and there was a tinge of concern on his face. "Can your body withstand another pregnancy, Susie? Why don't we...
He had taken all the precautions, so he did not understand why Susan had still gotten pregnant.
It was as if God was playing a prank on them.
Susan stared at Julian. "What are you talking about? Of course we are going to give birth to this baby.” The concern on Julian's face increased. " But your body..."
"My body is finely tuned, and it’s absolutely okay for me to carry a baby," Susan said without any hesitation
Julian knew he could not change Susan's mind once she had decided to do something. Therefore, he could only push his concern for her to the bottom of his heart.
Susan's body was many times 2 weaker, than an ordinary person, ‘ss due tothe viruses. Carrying a baby required a lot of energy, so Julian was truly worried about her> “Content ~~
Everybody tensed up when they heard that Susan was pregnant again
Luna moved over to stay with her, while Anna and Serenity would come to keep her company from time to time
Julian postponed any unwanted appointments and work and kept Susan company most of the time.
Chesney and Lucas were intrigued by the baby boy that was about to be born. After they came back from school, they would circle Susan "Mommy, did Chessie come out of here as well?" Chesney asked with curiosity written all over her face.
Susan chuckled as she ruffled her hair. " Yeah, you're right.”
"Mommy, little brother is kicking you." Chesney had been observing Susan’s stomach and would shout whenever she noticed the baby moving inside. "You used to kick mommy like this too, you know?" Julian chimed in with a smile.
"That is impossible," Chesney said with a stern face. "Chessie is a little lady. Chessie would not do something like that."
"Alright, alright. you’re right, little lady." Julian scooped Chesney up into his embrace as he felt contentment filling his entire being.
Due to the past incidents, Chesney and Lucas had not been that close to him by the time he had returned.
The silver lining was that after a year of effort, the two kids had finally accepted him back.
Several months later, Susan gave birth to a baby boy. Since he was born in the morning, they named him Elio Shaw.
The baby was healthy, and Susan recovered well under intense care.
When Elio was two years old, they received news that Madam Shaw was dying and wanted to take a look at her grandson
Even though Susan did not like Madam Shaw, she still brought the kid to Ningcheng City with Julian.
When they arrived, the servant stopped them. She told them that Madam Shaw had said that she was dying, so it would not be good for the kid to get close to her.
Madam Shaw was firm. Therefore, Susan held the baby while Julian went to meet Madam Shaw alone. After a while. Julian emerged from the room. His eyes were red around the rims.
"Susie, mom said that she wants to see you," Julian said, his voice edging on a plea.
“Okay.” Susan answered. After she handed the kid to Julian, she stepped into the ward.
Madam Shaw was lying on the bed. She looked pale and weak.
She was holding a picture of a kid in her hand and could not tear her eyes away from the picture.
When she saw Susan, she flashed a weak smile at her. "Thank you, Susie. Thank you for still being willing to come and see me."
Susan pressed her lips tightly, as she did not know what to say. "Elio is such a cute boy." Madam Shaw's eyes were gentle as she looked at the photo.
Susan still refused to speak.
Madam Shaw took a look at her and said ina hushed voice, "I know you have been blaming me for being ~ such a Fook I'm not sure whether my husband v will scold me or not when I get tasee him after I die. However, this ts who I am, and I can't t change anymore. In any case, Susie, I want to apologize to you and Chessie for everything I did to you in the past.”
Finally. Madam Shaw had finally apologized to her.
Setting her jaw tight, Susan said, "Rest well. Maybe you can get through it this time.”
"I know my owag body the best." Madam Shaw-shook her head weakly. Then, she said, "I can see ~ that you‘don't want to see me at all, Susie.You can leave now. Please ask Julian to come in for me-fwant hiatto accompany me on ry last joarney." -to
Susan then left in silence.
Julian kept Madam Shaw company for a few days.
Three days later, Madam Shaw passed away.
The grandson she had been yearning for her whole life was just outside the door, yet she still did not get the chance to even glance at him. Julian was a bit downcast after Madam Shaw passed away, but time could heal anything
Ten years later, Julian and Susan's hair had grown white, and their children had grown up The two of them held each other's hands as they strolled down a pathway full of fallen flowers A young couple walked past them.
The girl lamented, "Look at them. This is what love should look like.”
The boy hastily added, "We will be like that as well when we're old."
"Hey, I haven't agreed to be your girlfriend yet, you know?”
"Well, it's just a matter of time. I'm sure that you will say yes in the end.”
The boy and the girl's voices were getting further and further away.
Julian and Susan exchanged a glance and saw the smile on each other's faces.
They had gone through many ups and downs in their life.
They had three kids, but their kids would leave them eventually.
At the end of the day, they would keep each other company until the end of their life
Their life was complete with each other by their side
