Chapter 45 Take Good Care Of Ourselves
"I want to know if you ever loved me when we were together. I want to know if you took $100,000
from my mother when I was in aa after the ident?" Luke was nervous from Susan’s gaze,
but he still continued asking because he needed to know the truth.
Susan suddenly smiled, "Luke Jenkins, are you still asking stupid questions like these now? Love?
If you''re not the heir to the Jenkins Corporation, why would I want to be with you? We''re all adults,
so don''t put so much hope on love. As for the $100,000, yes. When you were unconscious, I asked
your mother for i t. Since you wanted to dump me, I needed somepensation for the times we
had, so $100,000 isn''t expensive at all.”
Since Madam Jenkins allowed Luke to look for her, she would have expected Susan to know how to
answer. Therefore, she could only give him that answer especially because she did take the
$100,000 and promised Madam Jenkins that she would never reveal the past to him.
Since she and Luke were destined to be fateless, she did not have to look for any trouble. She had
topletely banish Luke’s hopes.
Luke had prepared himself for that but when he heard those words left Susan''s lips, his pupils
constricted!
"Susan Shelby, you are lying to me!" Luke’s voice trembled. The voice at the bottom of his heart told
him that this was not the truth.
However, in reality, she said coldly, "Luke, this is the truth. You aren''t young anymore. Just ept
that this world is brutal."
"I don''t believe it!" He gritted his teeth. "You''re lying to me. All of you are lying to me."
Susan''s heart ached a little at the sight of his reaction. ''Luke, you shouldn''t have to look for any
truth from the beginning. You have already missed what you missed, so you should embrace the
future.''
Her voice grew harsher. "No, we didn’t lie to you.
You’re lying to yourself.”
"Susan Shelby!" He suddenly grabbed Susan''s arm and looked at her in despair. "Tell me that
you''re not like that. Tell me!"
"Will you believe me if I told you?" Susan looked up at him.
He nodded then said with conviction, "As long as you say it, I’ll believe you." Although he did not
have his past memories, there was a fatal attraction from this woman. As long as Susan denied, he
would believe her. Even if Susan lied, he was willing to sacrifice it.
"Tell me that all of these are lies." Luke''s eyes looked like they were begging her desperately.
Susan''s heart trembled, but she still said coldly, "But the thing is, everything your mother said is
true. I, Susan Shelby, am a greedy and cruel woman."
"Susan!" Luke grabbed her arm even tighter. "I don''t...I don''t believe you! I don''t believe everything
you said." Because he was too emotional, his grip became tighter and made Susan frown.

"Young Master Jenkins, how long are you nning to hold onto my wife?" Suddenly, a cold voice
rang out.
Julian walked over with a nk face.
Luke was slightly taken aback and Susan freed herself from his grip.
Then, she walked to Julian. She held his arm and looked at Luke sarcastically. "Luke Jenkins, I
advise you to stop bothering me. Julian can give me much more than you. I’ve been with you for 2
years and all I got was $100,000. With Julian, as long as I say I want money, I can have $100,000
over and over again! If you still have some dignity left within you, please stop bothering me!"
Julian squinted at her because he could feel that her hands were trembling. This woman was
nervous.
However, he did not say anything. Instead, he followed through and held onto her waist. "My dear, it
turns out that your ex-boyfriend is so stingy. Did he only give you $100,000 in 2 years? That''s so
stingy. Oh yeah, have you used up the $10 million limit on the credit card I gave you previously? I''ll
top it up if you''ve finished using it."
"Thank you, my dear." Susan looked at him and smiled sweetly. Then, she turned and looked coldly
at the beaten-down Luke. "I beg you to stop disturbing m y life. I''m doing very well now and I wish
that you''ll have a good life too. Isn’t it good that we are taking good care of ourselves?"
Shuddering, Luke almost fell as he stared at Susan." Are you with Julian because he has more
money than me?"
"Otherwise?" She looked annoyed.
Luke stared at her for a long while, then a miserable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as
he finally said, "I understand."
He turned around and left, swaying as though he was about to copse.
Susan''s feet almost left the ground a few times because she wanted to help him. However, she bit
her lower lip and held herself back. ''Luke, just treat me as a cruel woman. This is for our own good.
Madam Jenkins would''ve wanted to see this happen.''
Luke has no idea how he got home where Madam Jenkins was waiting for him nervously.
She quickly smiled when she saw him. "Son, have you verified it with that woman? What did she
say?"
Luke looked at her with a vacant gaze.
Madam Jenkins''s heart involuntarily dropped. The life in Luke seemed to have left him.
''Even without his memory, can''t he forget about that woman? Or was it my mistake to separate
them? No, I''m not wrong! A woman like Susan Shelby doesn''t deserve Luke. My son deserves
better and Mandy Ainsley is his match.''
After cementing her beliefs, Madam Jenkins smiled and was about to ask something else, but Luke
opened his mouth to say, "The wedding will go on as nned."
He went upstairs without any expression after that.
''The wedding will go on as nned?'' Madam Jenkins could not hide her glee.
She had been worried that Susan would break the promise and expose everything, but that woman
was unexpectedly obedient. If she could be cut off from Luke’s lifeplete, then the $100,000 was
worth it. When she thought about how the wedding would be held as nned, the rock was lifted off
her chest and her smile grew wider.
Luke locked himself in the room and looked into the distance numbly. As long as Susan said it, even
if it went against the world, he would cancel the wedding. However, that did not happen. 1
Susan did not even say a word to make him stay. She could not wait to get rid of him.
This woman was so cruel to him. Even if she was such a greedy and cruel woman, could she not
pretend to be gentle and lie to him? s, in the end, she was not even willing to lie to him.
‘Luke Jenkins, why would you still hold on to a woman like this? Mandy is gentle and loves you
deeply. How is she not better than Susan? So be it. As she wishes, from now on, we shall take good
care of ourselves."
