Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

In the living room, Yana’s pretentious voice broke out once again.

Susan took a quick peek at Ben.

He remained calm, neither cheerful nor angry.

She was observing him.

Ben suddenly turned his head towards her.

They looked at each other in a daze.

Susan panicked and quickly averted her eyes.

A light smile appeared on his face.

He said after a faint and quick smile, “Do you want to watch it with them here?”

Susan shook her head quickly.

It’s not her interest.

Ben nodded, turned upstairs, and walked to the stairway. He paused for a moment and said, “I’m going to the study.”

After saying that, he left without looking back. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Susan hesitated for a moment and didn’t follow him.

In the study.

Ben found a book and flipped through it casually.

His eyes switched between the book and the watch.

One minute for the book, the next for the watch.

Time passed slowly.

Ben was not happy.

What was wrong with Susan?

He made it clear that he was in the study.

If this woman was sensible, she should follow him and explain to him about Carl’s words!

Well, she probably didn’t know what to say. So he could give her five minutes.

And he could even give her ten minutes..

Now that half an hour had passed, she still hadn’t come!

C

She didn’t even want to explain it to him.

Did she just acquiesce to what Carl said that she didn’t like him or the Landor family?

Maybe it was true.

She did explain, but what she explained was that she didn’t slander Yana.

The more he thought about it, the worse he felt.

He recalled how Susan had defended him. He felt that maybe she liked him a little. bit before.

But now, he felt that the reason why Susan was good to him was simply because she didn’t want to go back to the Miller family.

She was kind to him and his grandpa because she wanted to escape from her family.

He tried to be calm.

The current situation was a good choice for Susan.

He couldn’t offer her so–called love. All he needed was a wife.

But what she needed was a man who could protect her.

The two of them got what they wanted. It was a perfect match to some degree.

Ben knew it. But his heart seemed to be burnt by a fire, not appeasing anyhow.

As forty minutes passed, Susan still didn’t appear.

Ben took a deep breath, and he gradually became calm.

It seemed that he had been flattering himself before.

Susan was just trying to please him with no sincerity at all.

That was normal.

With his appearance, how could anyone really like him?

It was okay anyway.

From now on, he won’t do anything for her. Even if she took the initiative to cozy. him up, he would not give a shred of response.

Right at that moment.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Ben raised his eyebrows, and his voice was cold, “Come in.”

The door was pushed open.

Susan took a box of snacks and stood hesitantly at the door.

Ben looked at her coldly, “What’s the matter?”

Ben’s seriousness intensified his deterrence.

Susan’s heart quivered slightly.

Was he really angry?

Susan hesitated for a moment and whispered, “I made some desserts for you. Would you like to try them?”

Desserts?

After being shifted to what was in Susan’s hand, Ben’s eyes moved slightly.

It turned out that this woman wanted to explain. But she was afraid that he would be angry, so she made desserts to please him?

Ben didn’t respond to her question.

Susan was flustered, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go out.”

She turned around to leave.

“Come in.” Ben repeated quickly.

His tone was not gentle. Susan was nervous, but she still walked in bravely.

Ben looked at her coldly, “What’s the matter?”

He hadn’t showed his cold look in front of her for a long time. Although he chose to protect her today, he was probably really angry.

Susan was a little nervous.

Although her parents couldn’t shake off Yana’s bad reputation, they still put a thorn between her and Ben after all.

Susan compressed her lips.

Although she wasn’t sure if Ben would believe her, she still had to do something.

She said slowly, “On our wedding day, I remember I had told you that marrying you is the only way for me.”

Ben replied nonchalantly.

Susan continued seriously, “I wanted to stay in the Landor family. At first, it was indeed because only in this way could I escape from my family.”

“Oh?” Ben remained composed.

“But in the world, the sincerity trades the true feelings. You, Grandpa and the Landor family all deserve. At first, it was just a hopeless choice. But now, even without my parents, I don’t want to leave here. Ben, I want to stay here because I really like this family,” Susan explained with biting her lower lip lightly.

What she said was true.

But she was not sure whether Ben believed her or not.

“Are you finished?” Ben’s voice was faint.

His reaction struck a chill to her heart, but she still responded softly, “Yes.”

“Get out,” spoke Ben.

Susan walked out with her lips pursed.

When she closed the door, Ben looked at the box of desserts next to him, giving a smile involuntarily.

The sincerity traded the true feelings?

“So, Susan, do you want to trade your sincerity for what?” He thought.

Thinking of that, Ben was inexplicably happy.

He picked up a small cake slowly,

It was a rose cake.

Ben frowned, “Women all like this kind of sweet thing.”

After saying that, he took a bite.

“Too sweet.” He commented disdainfully, and then he took another bite.

Soon, he finished eating the cake.

The second piece was picked up naturally.

Although the cake didn’t taste delicious, he felt hungry.

Piece by piece, all the cake was eaten.

Ben suddenly felt that the pain in his heart had miraculously disappeared.

But!

He was not so pleased. Susan had to do more.

He was still a little angry at that moment.

It would be best if Susan could send him more desserts and then act coquettishly

with him.

Only by doing so a few times could he completely forgive her.

Ben quickly became pleasant after thinking that.

After a few hours, a servant came up to tell him.

“Mr. Landor, Mr. and Mrs. Carl has watched the video ten times.”

Ben raised his eyebrows, “Let them go.”

The servant nodded and was about to leave.

“Wait a moment,” said Ben suddenly.

The servant stopped quickly and waited for his order.

Ben asked unintentionally, “What is Mrs. Landor doing now?”

The servant hesitated for a moment and replied, “When I came up just now, I seemed to see Mrs. Landor moving things.”

“Moving things?” Ben was a little surprised. He waved his hand and asked the servant to leave, and he decided to go and see.

When Ben walked to the room, Susan had packed a suitcase and was about to leave.
