Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 404

Zeke looked away and lowered his head.

After a brief silence, he said slowly, “We can get engaged first and discuss the wedding two years later.

I've just taken over the Shurmer family, so I'm too busy to plan a wedding.”

Everyone in the living room heaved a sigh of relief when they heard him agreeing to the engagement.

They were worried he would refuse to marry Shirley no matter what.

Richard relaxed. “Sure. You can get engaged first.”

He turned to his daughter and asked, “What do you think?”

Shirley could barely hide her delight.

Finally, Zeke agrees to get engaged to me. As long as we are engaged, I'm confident he'll stay by my

side. Everyone in the Shurmer family and the Gourd family knew Zeke had sex with me and that I am

his woman. I'll be his wife as long as the b*tch Juliana doesn't do anything to break us up.

“I'll follow Zeke's wishes. Just do as he said,” she replied shyly.

Richard guffawed in joy and gazed at Steven, who was sitting across from him. “We finally fulfill our

wish of being in-laws.”

Steven nodded. “The Shurmer family is blessed to have a daughter-in-law like Shirley. They will finally

marry each other, so our wish has come true.”

“Yes, you're right.”

Zeke got up and said calmly, “I need to get back to work, so I'll be heading back to my office now.”

He then walked toward the door.

Seeing that, Waverly promptly called out, “We have a dinner party tonight. I have asked the butler to

call Lionel, so he'll be here later. Remember to be back in time for dinner.”

“Mm.”

...

The screeching sounds of a car braking were heard at the intersection of Haltwind Road.

Juliana frowned. “What happened? Why did you hit the brakes suddenly?”

“Ms. Juliana, there are a few cars blocking our way,” the driver reported.

Right after he said that, someone knocked on the window.

Juliana rolled it down to discover a bodyguard dressed in black standing outside.

“Ms. Hoffman, my employer would like to talk to you.”

Juliana recognized the bodyguard as he was Zeke's personal bodyguard.

The employer he mentioned should be Zeke, then. He never took the initiative to look for me. What is

going on? No! There must be a reason for him to come all the way here to meet me. Did he realize I

was the one who drugged him last night?

With that thought in mind, she held the corner of her dress tightly and forced herself to stay calm. “I'm

sorry, but I'm in a hurry. Please make way.”

The man in black ignored her words and gestured for her to get out. It was clear what he meant.

Juliana clenched her jaw.

I don't have enough men with me, so it's impossible to get past them and leave. So...

“I'll go talk to Mr. Shurmer. Stay in the car,” she told the driver.”

“Okay.”

Juliana opened the door and strode to a car parked nearby.

When she arrived, another man in black opened the door for her.

She hesitated for a few seconds before getting into the car.

“Why have you come?”

Juliana dared not look at the man sitting next to her as she felt a little guilty.

Zeke shot her a dark look. “Ms. Hoffman, it seems that your attitude toward me has done a complete

one-eighty. Why? Have you lost interest in me that soon?”

Juliana whipped her head around to glare at him. “What do you mean by I've lost interest in you? Did

you forget how you rejected me countless times and...”

Mid-sentence, she belatedly realized that she was overreacting and promptly swallowed the rest of her

words.

Arching a brow, Zeke asked, “Are you going to meet the elder of the Hoffman family?”

“Yes,” Juliana managed through gritted teeth. She then mocked, “Mr. Shurmer, you can finally heave a

sigh of relief as no one will pester you anymore. You can finally get engaged to your fiancée in peace. I

wish you both a happy marriage.”

She pushed the door open to leave.

Seeing that, Zeke gripped her arm and chuckled. “Why are you blowing up when we barely chatted?”

Juliana flung his arm away with all her might. “What do you want? I've made myself clear, and I won't

pester you anymore. Can't you get out of my way instead of showing up before me?”

I'm afraid I might be reluctant to leave after seeing him a few more times. God knows how much

courage I had to summon to make up my mind. Can he stop showing up before me and enabling my

rebellious side?

Zeke sighed softly. “We are friends, so I came here to send you off. If you need help back in your

family, just give me a call. I'll do my best to help you.”

“No need.”

Yes, I don't need him. I have Master, Master Artemis, and Lionel. He won't have a chance to offer his

help.

At her insistence, Zeke flashed a bitter smile and shook his head. “All right, then. Take care. I'll be

celebrating your success back in Aploth. You'll be one of the most influential and powerful women in

Adrune.”

Juliana parted her lips to say something but decided against it after she thought of something.

Then, she left the car without saying anything.

A dark look appeared in Zeke's eyes as he watched her leave.

He was so used to being pestered by Juliana, so he felt his heart break a little after learning about her

departure.

...

Bailey remained in Shelbert Condominium instead of bidding goodbye to her mentee.

To her, Juliana's departure was only temporary.

Once Juliana took over the entire Hoffman family, no one in the world could stop her from going

anywhere.
