Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love By Christin Donald ( Edward )
Ice-Cold Ceo Crazy Love By Christin Donald ( Edward ) Chapter 56

Chapter 56 

The secretary was bewildered at the sight of Susan fleeing the scene frantically, “Mr. Landor, what’s wrong with Madam Susan?” 

“There’s nothing. She needs time to get used to it.” Ben then continued calmly, “What’s the matter?” 

The secretary gathered herself and quickly got down to business. 

Susan ran all the way back to the Programming Department. 

“Susan!” Upon seeing her, Luke’s eyes immediately flickered with hope, “Why have you been away for so long? What did Mr. Landor say?” 

Susan felt a little distressed as she glanced at Luke. 

Luke’s eyes widened all of a sudden, “Eh, what’s wrong with your lips?” 

“Lips?” 

Susan hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand. 

Despite so, everyone around had already seen it even if she did not intend for some of them to know about it. 

At that very moment, everyone in the office exclaimed unanimously, “Ohhh… 

“Damn it!” 

Susan’s cheek was burning fiercely as if she could fry an egg on it. 

Luke cleared his throat before calling out sternly, “Ahem, be quiet.” 

The crowd shut up immediately. 

It was only then Susan heaved a sigh of relief. 

It seemed like Luke was the one who took better care of her. 

However, in the next second, she heard Luke muttering secretively, “Actually, I don’t mind if I were to wait for some time longer.” 

“Hahaha.” 

Chapter 56 

Everyone in the office burst out laughing. 

Susan was overwhelmed by an impulse to jump off the building. 

She swore that living was too hard for her. 

Fortunately, everyone finally left Susan in peace after some time of messing. around with her. 

She relayed Ben’s proposal of amendment to Luke before returning to her table. 

“Susan.” Jaron stared at Susan’s swollen lips with a distressed look. 

He assumed that the relationship between Mr. Landor and Susan must be going 

strong. 

It was such a pity for Jaron. 

Susan could not bear to see Jaron’s sorrowful expression. She could not help but apologize, “Jaron, I’m sorry. I didn’t know that you…” 

“I’m fine.” Jaron cut her short, “I think too highly of myself. I wish you and Mr. Landor a lifetime of happiness together.” 

Jaron sounded sincere as he delivered his wishes. 

It was only then Susan felt relaxed. She replied softly, “Thank you.” 

Jaron nodded and subsequently returned to his table. 

Sitting across his table, he sank into his thought. A moment later, he began smiling. 

It was never his plan to let Susan know that he liked her. 

After all, Susan was so perfect and charming that he did not regard himself as deserving her. 

He spilled that out simply because he could not stand Ben bullying Susan. That was why he confessed his feelings to her the other day on a reckless impulse. 

However, Ben was not actually bullying Susan in substance. 

That was why Jaron’s fury was totally unnecessary. 

Chapter 56 

Therefore, he should be happy with the fact that Susan had found someone who was outstanding enough to deserve her. 

Jaron took a deep breath and finally felt himself in great relief. 

It was time to call it for a day after work. 

Susan packed up several documents that she could bring back home to continue working on. She thought of taking a bus home as usual. 

Just as she had done packing her things. 

All of a sudden, a commotion had been stirred up in the office. 

Susan had a very bad feeling about that. 

She looked up just to see Ben walking towards her steadily. 

Ben offered his hand and said, “Come on, let’s go back together.” 

Susan blushed right away. 

It took her a moment before she reached out to put her hand on his palm. 

She could feel the warmth radiating from the skin of his hand which was slightly hotter than hers. 

In the next second, she could feel her cheeks burning too accordingly.

They held hands and left. 

They came all the way to the exit of the company. 

Wherever they went, everyone would greet them politely. 

It only took Susan approximately ten minutes from being shy to completely numb regarding how others addressed her. 

At the Landor residence. 

“Dad, what’s going on between Susan and Ben lately? Do you have any idea what had happened?” Penelope asked with a worrying look, “I think the incident last time had somewhat affected Ben.” 

Charlie threw her a glance before he muttered impatiently, “What are you being 

such impatient for?“. 

“Alas! I consider myself Ben’s half–mother. I’m worried about him too!” Penelope continued explaining. “It has been some time for both of them to leave the house carly in the morning and come back pretty late. They don’t even share a room at night. One will be sleeping in the master bedroom while another one will use the guest room. It’s pretty obvious that their relationship has gone sour. It will be equally suffering for the two of them if they were to continue living this way. If Ben wishes to continue no more, how about…” 

“How about what?” 

“How about getting a divorce?” Penelope replied without hesitation. As soon as she said that, she sensed that something was wrong. 

She turned around immediately just to see that Ben and Susan were standing in front of her hand in hand! 

It turned out that it was Ben who picked up her words earlier. 

Penelope stared at their intertwining hands in disbelief. She did not even realize that she had raised her voice as she questioned, “Are you guys back on good 

terms?” 

All the while she was convinced that Susan was never an easy character. Therefore, she had been wanting the two of them to break up. 

After the fight that the Miller family picked up, Susan and Ben had yet to get back on good terms. 

On the other hand, Penelope was striving to persuade Mr. Landor into taking her side. One second ago, she honestly thought that her plan was going to succeed! 

The fact that the spouses showed up hand in hand was enough to make her jaw drop. 

Penelope could not help cursing secretly. 

Mr. Landor could not help beaming. 

He looked at the two of them with great relief, “It’s good to see both of you getting back together. Fate has brought you together. You must hence cherish this relationship.” 

Chapter 56 

“Don’t worry,” Ben replied briefly. His usually cold gaze too had softened at the 

moment. 

Susan lowered her head as she was still blushing hard.. 

Charlie could not get any happier. He even had the kitchen prepare a couple more dishes. 

Everyone was delighted except for Penelope. 

She was about to go insane. 

She wondered what was wrong with Ben. 

She wished that he could make himself clear again that no one could override hist pride just like last time when he threw away the cat without hesitation. They -should not get back together after entering into a cold war. 

That simply made no sense at all. 

Penelope was not willing to cave in at the moment. She could not help but remind Ben. “Ben, you must not be blinded by love. Don’t forget that it was never Susan’s intention to marry you.”  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Penelope! I’d rather you shut up if you have nothing better to say!” Mr. Landor glared at her as a warning. 

Penelope could not help but retract a little. 

Ben burst out laughing instead. He gave Susan’s hand a tighter squeeze before he declared affectionately, “Since it wasn’t her intention to marry me in the first place, I must treat her even better. In that case, it is only then she will be willing to stay by my side wholeheartedly.” 

Penelope was almost choked by his affectionate look. 

She patted her chest as if it would help her to breathe better. She then continued to provoke him, “But what if she is only using you to get rid of her family for now and also in the future too?” 

The affection in Ben’s eyes grew even deeper as he said, “That proves that I’m somewhat useful to her. So long as I serve my purpose, that means she will never ever leave me. I consider this as a good thing.” 

Chapter 56 

Penelope was completely speechless. 

All of a sudden, she would rather herself be dead than be triggered by him that 

way. 

Susan was aware that Ben was trying to disgust Penelope. Smiling, suddenly, she flattered with a sweetened voice, “Honey, you’re so good to me. We’re going to be together forever. Nothing and no one can ever part us, what do you say?” 

Her voice was all of a sudden as sweet as honey that was capable of carrying 

anyone away. 

Ben was stunned for a second before he stared at her affectionately, “I promise you 

that will be us.” 

“Aww… Honey!” Susan got carried away as if she was madly in love. 

“Susan,” Ben too responded to her lovingly. 

Penelope was rendered speechless at the sight of their interaction. 

It was as if they had treated her as if she was of non–existence.
