Chapter 301 Anna''s Breakdown
"It''s fine. It''s best if I work on some things alone." Oliver patted Anna''s head. "Annie, just stay at the
Shaw mansion over the few days that I''m gone. You don’t need to do anything. Just wait for me
patiently, alright?"
Oliver’s expression was very stern, so Anna couldn''t help but nod obediently.
That night, Oliver said goodbye to Julian and left while Anna stayed with the Shaw family.
After Oliver left, Susan couldn''t help but feel a wave of relief.
At night, Susan was leisurely listening to some prenatal music while reading a book.
Julian was looking at her and his gaze deepened.
He bent over and left a soft kiss on Susan’s forehead. Then, he said softly, “Susie... The things that
Oliver said this evening...”
"Julian." Susie cut his sentence off immediately, "Did you get brainwashed too? My surname is
Shelby, not Wright. I''ve got nothing to do with them."
"It won’t take much time if it’s a simple check..." Julian replied seriously.
"Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore. If you continue, I’m going to get angry." Susan red at
Julian.
''It was painful enough to wait for Oliver to leave, but why is Julian still bothering me with it?’
Julian caressed Susan''s hair and kept quiet.
However, he couldn''t help but softly sigh in his mind.
To be honest, he hoped that Susan was Oliver''s sister.
It had nothing to do with the power of the Wright family. He simply hoped that, if Susan was Oliver’s
sister, would it mean that she wouldn’t have a hereditary heart disease?
''Would it mean that Susie and their baby could be safe?’
Julian was silent but Susan was looking at his stern face. Although he was quiet, she knew what he
was thinking.
Susan said softly, "Julian, some things are determined by fate. If something was supposed to
happen, it would''ve happened. If it wasn’t meant to happen, it wouldn’t. It wouldn''t make any
difference if I took the DNA test or not, right?"
Naturally, it wouldn’t have made any difference.
However, if he could confirm that Susie wasn''t rted to Jacob by blood, both Susie and him would
feel so much more relieved if they didn''t have to worry about the heart disease.
Since Susan insisted, Julian respected her decision and stopped trying to convince her.
Susan said, "Okay. When Oliver left, he probably investigated and found out that I''m not part of the
Wright family. You should stop thinking about it."
"Okay," Julian replied softly. Then, he stayed and listened to the soothing prenatal music with
Susan.
It was true that he shouldn’t overthink. Regardless of what the oue would be, he''d just face it
with her.
Susan was listening to music while reading. However, the music was too calming so she fell asleep,
and her book fell to the ground.
She leaned on Julian’s shoulder and fell into a deep sleep.
It was then that Julian nced at her lovingly before h e carefully rested her on the bed.
Under the dim light, Susie''s facial features seemed softer than usual. Looking at her, Julian couldn''t
help but chuckle. He did not care about Susie’s surname or family background. As long as she was
the person in front of him, nothing else mattered. 1
"Sigh!"
Anna watched the TV for a while and sighed.
"Sigh!"
She went to read a book, then sighed again.
In the end, she threw herself onto the bed. After tossing and turning for a while, she sighed for the
third time.
''All it would take to solve all of the mystery was a simple DNA test.
''If we could prove that Susie was our sister, Mom and Dad would be so happy. With that, Mom''s
illness would definitely recover immediately.
''Besides, the New Year wasing soon.
''Each time the New Year came by, Mom would go through a miserable time.
''She had always said that if Rosie was there, we''d finally be able to unite as a family.’ 1
It had been several decades. During the New Year, other families would spend their time happily.
However, their family would go through it with a solemn atmosphere and teary eyes.
If Susie was their sister, their mother wouldn''t have to be sad any longer for thising New Year.
''How nice would that be?
''No!''
Although Oliver had told her not to do anything, she had to at least try for her mother’s sake.
With that, Anna jumped from her bed abruptly. She could tell that the main obstacle was Jacob! As
long as she convinced Jacob, Susan wouldn''t be as unwilling a s she was now.
"Hmph, I must talk to him!" Anna rolled her sleeves up and walked out of her room.
For some reason, the idea of seeing Jacob soon made Anna feel a little joyous.
She knocked on his door but there was no response. It was as though there was no one in the
room.
Anna rolled her eyes, then started banging on the door violently with her fist. There was still no
response but Anna had a lot of patience. After knocking for ten minutes, the door opened.
"Oh, you''re here." Anna looked at Jacob in feigned surprise. "I thought you fell asleep."
Jacob stopped himself before swear words rolled off his tongue.
''She thought I was asleep so she continued knocking?
"What do you want?" Jacob stood at the door and looked at her coldly.
"Let me in, then we can discuss it slowly.” Anna blinked.
Jacob squinted his eyes. "There''s no need. If there''s anything, we can just say it here.”
"Jacob!” Anna’s expression suddenly turned aggrieved and her eyes turned teary. "Do you hate me
that much?"

Although he knew that Anna was faking her tears, seeing her cry still softened Jacob''s expression.
He replied with a deep voice, "No." "That’s not true! You''re lying. You clearly hate me." Anna''s
crying grew worse. "Previously, there were a few big guys scheming against me when I was
kidnapped at the hospital. I''m just a weak woman, do you know how hard it was for me to escape?
In Town N, you were the person who I trusted the most. After escaping, I called you immediately
and yet... what happened?"
Anna looked at Jacob tearily and he pressed his lips together in silence.
"You doubted me!" Previously, Anna faked her tears. However, she began feeling truly aggrieved as
she continuedining, "I''ve suffered so much and tried so hard to escape just to be doubted by
you.
Jacob, what wrong have I done to you in your previous life?"
Anna kept on crying. Her cries turned from a sob into a hysterical tantrum. Jacob had never seen
anyone cry this badly so he started to panic.
Jenny used to cry a lot as well, but she cried pitifully and beautifully.
However, Anna''s cries were more like a child''s breakdown. Her tears and mucus were smudged all
over her face.
Jacob was a little germaphobic. Seeing Anna''s breakdown, he could only hand her a handkerchief.
