Chapter 434 You''re Only An Outsider
"Madam, Mrs. Shaw is ill. She''s resting upstairs," the maid said quickly.
"Ill? She must be pretending." Madam Shaw raised her brow in disdain. "She''s trying to gain Julian’s
sympathy with this tactic, isn''t she? I''ve seen too many women like this. She''s not the first, nor will
she be thest."
"Madam, Mrs. Shaw got really sick after identally staying too long in the wind," the servant
exined.
"identally or intentionally?" Madam Shaw leered." Never mind. I''ll go up to find her myself."
Madam Shaw was about to head up the staircase.
"No need, I’ming down." A frail voice sounded as Luna helped Susan descend the stairs slowly.
Wi, who saw the scene, hid in a corner and texted Julian to ask him toe home as soon as
possible. Then, she stood aside and watched the confrontation between Madam Shaw and Susan
unfold.
What happened next would surely be explosive, but things would not reach their climax if Julian was
not around. Now that Wi had informed Julian, she would trigger a conflict and elicit gratitude from
the man for notifying him. It was basically killing two birds with one stone.
"You’re looking really pale there, aren’t you? Someone who has no idea would think you got
poisoned instead.” Madam Shaw mocked her.
Her piercing tone caused Chessie to be aware of her malice instantly. The child was upset.
"Bad woman, are you bullying my mommy again?"
"I''m a bad woman?" Madam Shaw looked frosty." Susan Shelby, this is what you are teaching your
daughter?"
Ignoring her, Susan told Luna, "Mom, carry Chessie out to y."
"Mommy, Chessie''s not leaving. Chessie''s staying to protect you," Chesney said, looking anxious.
Susan patted her head with a gentle smile. "Mommy’s alright. Chessie, be good and go y outside
for a bit."
Luna took a nce at the aggressive Madam Shaw and arched her brow. "Chessie, go on outside
to y. Grandma''s here. I won’t let your mommy get upset."
"Really, grandma?" Chesney peered at Luna.
"Of course," the woman promised with a smile.
Then, Chesney was reassured enough to follow the maid outside despite constantly turning back to
check.
As she watched her daughter''s tiny silhouette, Susan''s gaze was tender. Her Chessie was so
young, yet she was already so warm and kind.
She did not know what havoc Madam Shaw was going to wreak this time, but she did not want
Chessie to be affected.
"Is something the matter?” Susan looked at Madam Shaw coldly.
"What do you mean?" Madam Shaw stared at Susan." Susan Shelby, has Julian told you?"
“Told me what?" Susan frowned.
Madam Shaw smiled after ncing at her. "Looks like he hasn''t then. He should be the one to tell
you personally, but since I''m already here, I might as well tell you first so you can get mentally
prepared."
Susan merely kept her eyes on Madam Shaw as a crease formed between her brows.
There was a glint of glee in the bottom of Madam Shaw''s eyes. "Susan, you asked Chessie to
poison my traditional medicine, and it has cost my health a great deal. Did you think Julian would
forgive you when you''ve done something so grave to me?"
Poison? Luna narrowed her brows.
Julian had kept what had happened in the Shaw Mansion under wraps, so Luna had no idea what
had happened even now. Although she did not know what had taken ce in particr, she knew
her daughter''s character.
Upon listening to what Madam Shaw said, Luna could not help retorting icily, "Madam Shaw,
charges can be pressed for ndering. Susie asked Chessie to poison
you? Can you make up a more credible lie?"
"Hah.” Madam Shaw scoffed at Luna. "How could you bring yourself to talk to me when you have
such a vile daughter? Luna, it''s not me who''s using Susan this time. The camera caught
Chessie poisoning me, and Julian found a bag of sugar mixed with arsenic in her room. How could
Chessie think of doing something like that? Susan must have instructed her!"
What? Luna was startled by the messy nature of the incident.
Susan looked at Madam Shaw calmly. "A clean hand needs no washing. Whether you believe it or
not, I didn''t do it."
"Anyone can say that," Madam Shaw sneered. "It depends on whether others believe it or not.
Susan Shelby, I’ll be frank. Julian''s promised me to divorce you, you wretched woman. I believe he''ll
tell you on his own before too long."
Gratification was shing across Madam Shaw’s eyes as she spoke and observed Susan''s
expression.
Ever since he had married Susan, Julian had always sided with this woman, defied her, and made
her lose pride countless times for this girl. This time, however, her son was on her side.
Julian wanted a... divorce?
Susan was shocked. She was suddenly dazed. She felt like she could not understand what Madam
Shaw was saying.
Julian was going to divorce her?
A tremor shook Susan as Luna rushed to hold her quickly and red at Madam Shaw. "What kind
of rubbish are you talking about? You can''t tell right and wrong, but Julian isn''t like that."
"Hah! Just wait. Julian will tell Susan soon enough," Madam Shaw said with a smirk. "Susan Shelby,
I wasing today to tell you this: If you still feel even the slightest bit of shame, you will get out of
the Shaw Mansion right now."
Get out of the Shaw Mansion...
Susan''s eyes zed over. She vaguely recalled that Madam Shaw had stood in front of her
overbearingly and asked her to get out of the same ce a few years ago. At the time, she had
picked up her suitcase and gone out obediently with her brother.

Was the same thing happening again? Was she going t o be kicked out again this time?
No, that was impossible!
Susan willed herself to calm down. Unless Julian asked for a divorce personally, she was not going
to believe what Madam Shaw said.
A few years ago, her love for Julian had not run as deep. She had been able to opt to leave easily.
That was no longer possible. Julian was her husband, and they had a little girl together. This was
their home. Why should she be asked to leave her home?
Luna taunted her instantly. "Madam Shaw, have you gone insane? This is Julian and Susan''s home.
Speaking of that, you''re only an outsider. An outsider trying to kick the homeowner out. Do you think
you have the ability to do that?"
"Are you calling me an outsider?” Madam Shaw’s voice was shrill. "Let''s see what will be left of
Susan when she leaves Julian!”
