The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife
Chapter 490 When Are Daddy And Mommy Getting Back Together

"Anna, Anna..." Jacob Shelby knocked on the door a few times, yet Anna Wright did not respond at all.

There was nothing else he could do except turn around and leave.

Then, he met a pair of eyes filled with scandalous desire.

"How's it going? How's it going?" Seth Leeds asked eagerly. "I heard that you mistook someone else for Anna, huh? I heard that you were even crying? Where are your tears, where are your tears? Show me quickly."

Jacob said nothing.

After a long time, he looked at Seth, gnashing his teeth in anger. "You misguided me on purpose!"

Had it not been for Seth's ambiguous remark, which had described a seemingly serious situation, would he have needed to embarrass himself so immensely?

Jacob kept staring at Seth.

Seth was overwhelmed by his guilty conscience gradually.

He took a few steps back silently and said," I did it for you. Think about this. Without my assistance, when would a blockhead like you finally have been able to have a fruitful relationship?"

Jacob continued to stare at him.

"Uh... I still have some matters to manage a t the company, so I shall get a move on!" Seth, who did not care about gossiping anymore, turned around and ran swiftly.

Oh god, Jacob's gaze was simply too terrifying.

Jacob turned around and could not help laughing bitterly about successfully driving away Seth with his gaze.

It turned out that what he had assumed was a problem was actually not a problem for Anna.

So what was the point of him being caught up in this for so long?

The problem was that now that he had come to realize the truth, Anna was furious and refused to look at him anymore.

Red rain fell from the skies... How could red rain fall from the skies?

Jacob could not help pulling a long face.

The situation between him and Anna had been reversed.

In the past, people had discovered in astonishment that Anna had been chasing after Jacob while Jacob had remained sullen. Now, Jacob was chasing after Anna, while Anna was ignoring him. As for Blanchett, she immediately returned to America the next day after leaving Jacob.

The only ones that remained there now were Jacob and Anna, who were constantly tormenting each other. Jacob had tormented her in the past, so it was Anna's turn now. They were having a really good time playing with each other, but Seth was so depressed that he could die.

Even though Anna was not paying much attention to Jacob now, when these two were in the same room, Seth felt like a single man being forced to watch their display of affection.

He was really having a tough life.

Jacob, who displayed his affection before a single man unintentionally, was feeling troubled as well. Late one day, he mustered the courage to give Susan Shelby a call. "Jacob?" Susan picked up the call quickly.

"Oh, Susie." Jacob forced himself to smile." I have something to ask you."

"Go ahead." Jacob's tone sounded rather solemn, so Susan could not help being serious as well.

"You are close to Anna... Do you know what she likes?"

Susan went silent right away on her end of the line.

"Why aren't you speaking?" Jacob was flustered beyond comparison, as Susan was still quiet.

Susan let out a cough. "Shouldn't you tell me something else first, Jacob? Did the relationship between you and Anna make sudden progress?"

Otherwise, how could her blockhead of a brother suddenly be concerned about Anna's preferences?

Jacob could not help cracking a shy smile. It was not very appropriate for him to explain this to Susan in detail, so he described the situation vaguely. "I've suddenly come around." "Really? Hold on." Susan went missing for a while.

After a few minutes, her smiling voice was heard again. "Jacob, that's really amusing of you. Just an ankle sprain is enough for you to make such a serious decision?"

Jacob was rendered speechless at once.

Seth, you b*stard. He promised me to keep it a secret!"

"Seth has a big mouth. He only divulges when I ask him, so this shows his utmost respect for you." Susan could not help laughing. "Alright, I won't mess with you anymore. Let's talk about Anna's preferences. She loves good food the most, and the thing she loves second best is that cat on her phone known as Dumpy."

He could slowly work on good food...

Dumpy...

Susan's statement made Jacob pay attention!

Anna did not have many hobbies, but it seemed that she had been keeping the cat known as Dumpy on her phone for five to six years, and she had always been very determined about doing it too. "I have an idea. Susie, you're the reliable one," said Jacob excitedly.

"What is it? Tell me and I shall give you advice..." Before Susan's voice could even die away, Jacob had already hung up the phone eagerly from his end.

Susan could not help expressing her annoyance upon hearing the busy signal.

This was the first time Jacob had ever hung up on her!

A person in love really behaved differently, huh.

Susan was feeling gloomy, yet she could not help laughing.

Her brother had finally come through with his relationship. Anna would certainly be delighted when she found out about this.

Susan hastily called Anna.

Just as expected, Anna was elated.

However, she said that she would continue to give him the cold shoulder before she said yes to him.

Susan expressed her praise for Anna's behavior. They then gossiped for a long while before Susan hung up the phone as if she was still not fully satisfied.

"Mommy, has Uncle Jacob finally come through?" asked Chesney Shaw, who was grinning as she made her way over vivaciously.

"How did you know?" Susan laughed and nudged her forehead.

"Uncle Seth was sending voice messages to daddy. I could hear his gossiping voice from afar," said Chesney disdainfully.

"You're a sneaky little fox." Susan picked up Chesney and gave her a kiss.

"Tee-hee." Chesney giggled and then asked with a curious expression, "I have a question, though. Mommy, do you think I should address Aunty Anna as my uncle's wife? Or Uncle Jacob as my aunt's husband?"

Chesney frowned as if she was deeply troubled.

Susan could not help feeling amused. "You should ponder that carefully."

The relationship between her brother and Anna was already more than halfway accomplished. She was feeling rather happy for them regardless.

Julian Shaw managed to struggle free from Seth's long-winded conversation. He raised his head, only to see Susan's gentle, smiling face.

"Mommy, if Uncle Jacob and Aunt Anna are together after having so many issues, when are you getting back together with daddy?" Chesney was incapable of deciding how to address her aunt and uncle, so she suddenly looked up at Susan with a naive expression.

Julian's eyes lit up as he looked at Susan eagerly.

The smile on Susan's lips vanished at once.

She was quiet for a long while before she said, "Chessie, this is a grown-up thing.

You don't understand."

Chesney pouted and said, "Alright, I won't ask then."

However, her pair of huge eyes still dimmed ever so slightly.

Susan heaved a sigh and rubbed Chessie's head gently.

"Chessie, there's no need for you to worry about this. I've always fulfilled my promise to you, right? Don't worry, I will certainly get back together with mommy." Julian reached over and picked up Chessie with a smile.

"Really? I wish you all the best, daddy." Chesney rejoiced at once.

The father and daughter had actually formed an offensive and defensive alliance. Susan pursed her lips, feeling jealous in her heart.

It was obviously Julian who had deceived her over and over again. Why did it feel as if everyone wanted her to forgive him without even holding a grudge?

Meanwhile, the sound of the phone ringing broke the silence in the room.
