Chapter 232 Joseph Shaw


    "Wedding photos?" Susan blinked andughed." That’s right. It''s a tant waste to not take some


    photos with this many wedding dresses."


    Susan turned to Julian in mirth. "Julian, let’s take wedding photos!"


    "That''s not a problem, but Susie, I worry about you being too tired," replied Julian.


    "It''s not some high-intensity chore. If I get tired, we can rest anytime,” Susan said with a chuckle.


    She wanted to document her most beautiful state before her baby bump appeared.


    Looking into her dazzling eyes, Julian nodded with a grin. "Sure."


    "That''s set then." Susan pecked Julian''s cheek while thetter rubbed her hair fondly.


    With thepany taken care of, Julian and Susan flew to Paris for their wedding photos.


    Before they left Ningcheng City, they filed a formal charge against Madam Jenkins for homicide.


    Luke got the bestwyer for the court case, but with Jade as the witness and several more factors,


    Madam Jenkins ultimately lost the case.


    Due to the serious offense of homicide and framing someone else for it, Madam Jenkins was


    sentenced to life imprisonment with immediate effect.


    When the penalty was dered, Luke''s tightly clenched fists went limp powerlessly. He had done


    his best, but he still lost in the end.


    Julian Shaw, Julian Shaw... Luke repeated the name t o himself, and his resentment toward the


    former surged.


    "Luke, what do we do now?" Charlotte looked at Luke i n pain. Listening to the final judgment, the


    hope in her eyes was extinguished fully.


    Luke pressed his lips together and said after a while," Let''s go, let''s go vist Mom."


    Charlotte could only nod.


    Separated by the steel bars, Luke and Charlotte met the pale Madam Jenkins.


    "Mom." Charlotte burst into tears at once when she saw the state that her mother was in.


    "My silly girl, why are you crying?" Madam Jenkins looked at her fondly.


    "Mom, it''s all my fault. If I wasn''t tricked and pointed the finger at you, we might have not lost this


    court case." Charlotte’s gaze was spilling anguish. Every time she recalled her stupidity, she wanted


    to p herself.


    "Charlotte." Madam Jenkins looked calm. "You''ve been living afortable life all these years


    without much hardship. When you encountered an obstacle like Julian Shaw previously, you got


    caught off guard and almost lost yourself. Mommy going to prison this time is probably your second


    challenge. But I''m actually living well here. I don’t have to worry about what I eat or what I wear. It’s


    just that I''m not as free. But if this challenge can make you grow, I think it''s worth it even if I die."


    Madam Jenkins''s gaze was still loving without any hint of me, prompting Charlotte to cry harder.


    Madam Jenkins frowned when she looked toward Luke. "Luke, where''s Mandy?”


    Luke pressed his lips together. "She went back to the Ainsleys."


    "Back to the Ainsleys?" Madam Jenkins frowned. "You chased her away, didn''t you? She still carries


    your baby. No matter how much you hate her, deal with that after she gives birth to the child,


    understand?"


    "I’ll have someone to visit her often," Luke said, still not intending to take Mandy back.


    Madam Jenkins could not help sighing. "Mandy isn’t important, but the baby muste back to the


    Jenkins after it''s born."


    "Don''t worry.” Luke nodded.


    Madam Jenkins was slightly relieved before she started again. "And thepany..." "Time’s up."


    Madam Jenkins was going to say more but the prison guard outside had begun to hurry her.


    Luke stood up, his voice gentle. "Mom, don''t worry. I''m here. I''ll guard everything of the Jenkins


    well."


    "Luke, I’ve always felt assured of you but there''s one thing.” Madam Jenkins looked at him. "Don''t


    ever go t o Susan anymore."


    There was an involuntary quiver in Luke''s hands.


    "It''s all Susan Shelby and Julian Shaw''s scheme that I got imprisoned. If you still have feelings for


    the girl, I won''t be able to rest in peace even when I die." Madam Jenkins bore her gaze into Luke. 2


    "I know," Luke replied with difficulty. 1


    With the visit session over, Luke and Charlotte left the prison. The sun was shining warmly outside


    but Luke felt ice cold on the inside.


    ''I won''t be able to rest in peace even when I die.’ His mother had probably known that he would not


    be able to let go of Susan even when things hade to this stage for her to speak so gravely.


    It was impossible now — it was really impossible.


    They used to be so deeply in love. How did things turn out to be the way they were now? 4


    Luke closed his eyes in pain. When he opened them again, they were devoid of emotions.

    "Luke, Mom looks much thinner." Charlotte wiped her tears.


    They had actually pulled a lot of strings to ensure that Madam Jenkins would not suffer too much in


    prison. I n spite of it, it was a prison after all. How much better could it be?


    Charlotte could not help the tears that threatened to fall whenever she thought of her mother''s


    current situation. 1


    "Charlotte." Luke nced at her. "It''s not the time to cry now. What we should be doing is


    destructing Lanyard and avenging Mom."


    Charlotte wiped her tears and nodded.


    "I have a photo here with me. Take a look." Luke suddenly produced a photo from his pocket and


    passed it to Charlotte.


    A photo?


    Charlotte felt herself jolt. Could it be...


    She hesitated but took it anyway.


    In the photo, it was a rather handsome man who looked gentlemanly and cultured. He exuded the


    vibe o f an elite.


    "This is?" Charlotte was already filled with premonition.


    "He''s Joseph Shaw. His family ran a small gang in America in the beginning but didn’t amount to


    much. When he took over, however, the gang grew in scale and is now thergest Canadian gang


    in America,"


    said Luke.


    "Joseph Shaw..." Charlotte''s gaze flickered. “A Shaw too?"


    Luke nced at Charlotte. "There are a lot of Straws around, so it doesn''t mean anything. But this


    Joseph Shaw does have something to do with Julian Shaw. When Julian''s father passed away,


    Madam Shaw took over Lanyard. Mr. Shaw had a younger brother in thepany too who held a


    significant position. After M r. Shaw''s passing, he was indignant that the authority was snatched


    away by a woman and had been fighting Madam Shaw since then. Madam Shaw was a sessful


    career woman though. She subdued him entirely and even made his life miserable in Ningcheng


    City and throughout Canada. Since then, M r. Shaw''s younger brother took the family assets and


    left. Joseph Shaw is his only son. Not too long ago, Mr. Shaw’s younger brother passed away.


    ording to word of mouth, his only wish before his death is for Joseph to return to Ningcheng City


    and im him the justice from back then."
