Julian Shaw's expression was so dull that it stirred an unprecedented feeling of panic and fear in Madam Shaw's heart. "Julian, I really did..."

"That's enough," Julian said in a nonchalant voice." Mom, I really don't want to see you anymore before Susie's return. If you're doing this for me, please leave."

"Julian, how could you speak to your mother like this?" Madam Shaw looked at him incredulously." Besides, I just told you that Susan cheated on you and that b*stard child of hers is not your daughter at all." B*stard? Julian felt like he was about to lose control of himself. The daughter that he cherished and cared for like a precious pearl was a b*stard in Madam Shaw's dictionary.

He was about to say something when Luna Harris suddenly scoffed coldly.

"Madam Shaw." Her expression was unusually calm." You have thought that Chessie is not a child of the Shaws all this time, right?"

Madam Shaw shot a disdainful glance at Luna. "The evidence is right before your eyes. The Wrights are incapable of raising a good daughter. How could you still have the audacity to protest?"

"Very well." A wisp of a cold glint flashed past Luna's eyes. "If you want to prove that Chessie is not Julian's child, the method is very simple. Since you are insisting so much on having a test, sure, Chessie will partake in the test."

"You mean that?" Joy appeared in Madam Shaw's eyes for a moment.

She had always felt that Susan's reluctance to let her have the test was due to her guilty conscience. It was great now that Luna had agreed to it on her own initiative. When the test result came out, there would be nothing Susan could protest about anymore.

"Mom, this is..." Julian frowned as he was about to say something.

Luna interrupted him immediately. "Julian, there's no reason why Susie needs to suffer an injustice like this. If your mother wants a test, we shall let her have it. However, I have two conditions!" "What are they? Tell me!" said Madam Shaw eagerly.

Luna scoffed once and then said, "I don't care what the result is, but I'm taking Chessie with me! Since she has a grandmother like you, who doesn't love her, I'll love her! Since you don't like her anyway, there's no need for you to come visit her other than during the festivities. We won't let you visit her either. You can come only during the festivities if you wish. We will provide her with adequate love and care, so she won't need yours." 1

"She's just a little b*stard. If the Wrights want her, you can have her." Madam Shaw agreed without the

slightest hesitation.

She had already acknowledged that Chessie was an illegitimate child in her heart.

"What's the second condition?"

When Luna heard the word 'b*stard', her expression became even colder. She scoffed coldly and said, "The second condition is that Susie will return to our home when she comes back! If she does have other children in the future, they will stay with us too. There's no need for you to visit them unless there's a special occasion either."

Madam Shaw's eyes rolled around as she pondered this.

There was no telling if that promiscuous woman was alive or dead now, yet Luna was talking about her future children? This sounded too far-fetched in Madam Shaw's opinion, so she agreed for the time being due to this urgent matter and focused on exposing Susan's true colors.

"Sure, I promise." Madam Shaw agreed once again.

"Anna, take a pen and paper to write up an agreement," said Luna straightforwardly.

"Does it have to be so formal? Why would I go back on my word?" Madam Shaw was not pleased.

Luna did not pay attention to her, while Anna Wright had already begun to draft the agreement right away.

Soon, the agreement was placed before Madam Shaw.

The paper stated that Madam Shaw would not have the authority to visit Chessie or any of Susan's future children except for festivities.

Madam Shaw only took one glance before she signed her name instantly.

"Very well." Luna kept the agreement. "We will make three copies of this agreement. You will get one copy, I will keep one copy, and I'll send the other copy to the notary office. Remember, you're not allowed to visit Susie's children from now on except during festivities! If you were to come, I'd sue you!"

"Heh heh... Why would I want to visit Susan's children?" Madam Shaw sneered.

"It's fine as long as you don't regret it," said Luna nonchalantly.

"I won't regret it," said Madam Shaw while stretching her neck.

Then, she took a glance at Julian. "Julian, we can now proceed with the blood test, right?"

Julian had been observing the entire process with a cold gaze.

He had discovered Luna's goal when she had proposed the two conditions. In fact, he felt as though he could already see Madam Shaw's future regret.

However...

Although Madam Shaw was his mother, ever since she had retired from the company and started living luxuriously, her behavior had been becoming increasingly more conceited. The agreement could be considered a lesson for her.

Despite his thoughts, Julian still asked her one last time, "Mom, performing a blood test signifies lack of trust. This is an insult to both Susie and Chessie. I'm very certain that Chessie is my child, and those photos don't prove anything either. Do you still insist on this?"

This was the last chance he was giving Madam Shaw.

"I insist!" Madam Shaw said without the slightest hesitation. "Julian, you've been bewitched by that cunning fox. I'm certain that there's something wrong with Susan's history. She..."

Julian refused to listen anymore and interrupted Madam Shaw right away by saying, "Sure. If this is enough to make you stop, then I shall consent to the blood test."

Her goal would finally be accomplished!

Madam Shaw could not help cracking a proud smile.

Soon, blood samples were drawn from Julian and Chesney. The result would come out the next day.

At night, Julian and Luna did not leave the hospital. They instead chose to remain in the hospital to watch Chesney overnight.

Madam Shaw had accomplished her goal so she left feeling fully satisfied and content.

Hmph! When the result was out, Julian would naturally come to recognize her hard work and effort. That b*tch Susan would not come in the way of their mother-and-son relationship anymore.

In the underground car park of the hospital, Anna was caught in a dilemma as she stood at a spot not far away from Madam Shaw.

What should she do? There were two bodyguards following Madam Shaw.

If she were to run over now, she speculated that she would not be a worthy opponent of the two bodyguards.

Anna was waiting for the right opportunity, but she felt even more infuriated in her heart.

Julian had obviously assigned the bodyguards to protect Madam Shaw at all times. Why had no one been with Madam Shaw the day Chessie had been abducted?

She was certain that Madam Shaw had figured out a way to avoid the bodyguards and gone out on her own.

This sick old woman... Could she want her son to be betrayed by his wife so badly?

Anna found her impossible.

She decided that she would leave it at that. She wanted to wait until the two bodyguards let down their guard. Then, she would certainly charge forward and beat Madam Shaw up properly! As Anna was waiting for the right time, she saw a white shadow flash past her peripheral vision all of a sudden.

Anna blinked before she saw a familiar silhouette on her side.

She observed the environment for a moment before she ran over swiftly and patted the person's shoulder." Jacob, what are you doing here?"
