Chapter 129
“Why don’t we ignore it?” Ben had a bad feeling as soon as Susan’s phone rang.
Susan had already wavered and prepared to let Ben do whatever he wanted.
However, after being interrupted by the ring, she became shy again.
She wrapped herself in the quilt. “Let’s take a look!”
Ben was still unwilling to give up, but Susan had already picked up her phone and started reading it.
“Have you finished reading?” Ben couldn’t help but ask, “Then we…”
Susan looked up and raised her eyebrows at him. “Don’t move.”
“What’s wrong?”
Ben was a little nervous.
Susan lifted his clothes expressionlessly.
She stroked his chest with her hand.
Ben was perplexed.
This was a little too exciting.
If he had known that Susan liked to take the initiative, he wouldn’t have worked so hard.
Ben was about to take the opportunity to hold her in his arms.
But Susan tapped her fingertips on his waist and asked, “Is this scar left by the fire?”
Ben was stunned for a moment, then nodded blankly. “Yes. This is the only scar left by it.”
Susan pursed her lips and wrapped herself in the blanket, leaving Ben on her back.
The contrast in her attitude was simply too great.
Ben was stunned for a moment, then secretly picked up Susan’s phone to have a look.
As soon as he read it, he frowned.
Chapter 129
was a message from Isabella.
Susan, I didn’t know that Mr. Landor’s scar was fake. I said before that the man I’m fond of is also pretending to be ugly. Will you misunderstand? Please don’t. That man is not Mr. Landor. There’s really nothing going on between Mr. Landor and me.
Susan, can you take a look at my pinned post? I feel a little sorry for the man I love, but I don’t know how to comfort him.]
Ben clicked on her WhatsApp account.
Isabella had pinned a post to the top.
The content was as follows: [At night, when I think of the scar on his waist, I feel as if I can feel the burning fire. My heart hurts so much. Why couldn’t I get to him earlier? Why couldn’t I accompany him through those sufferings? Tonight, I’m destined to be sleepless.]
Ben was livid,
He didn’t like to swear, but he really had an impulse to curse at this moment!
No sooner had he managed to explain Monica’s message than Isabella stirred trouble again.
Isabella had been making trouble all the time!
“She definitely has some kind of strange premonition ability.” He thought.
In this world, he was the only one who knew about the scar on his waist.
How did Isabella know it?
He wouldn’t believe that there was nothing strange about her.
Ben had already thought of a way to make Isabella unable to stay in Coraland.
But now!
How to deal with Isabella was not the main point.
Ben put down his phone, stretched out his finger, and tapped Susan on the back.
Susan did not respond.

Chapter 129
Ben exerted some strength.
Susan still did not respond.
Ben felt wronged. “I’ve analyzed it with you, Susan. Isabella must have the ability to predict. I’m innocent.”
Susan pursed her lips and said in a muffled voice, “I’m not angry.”
“Then you…” Ben hesitated.
Susan sat up and pursed her thin lips. “It is just that… Isabella, an outsider, knows more about you than me.”
Ben was anxious. “She is too strange. Only I know about the scar. Even grandpa doesn’t know about it at all.”
Ben was visibly flustered.
Susan could not help but feel her heart soften.
Holding onto Ben’s hand, she said gently, “Ben, it has nothing to do with Isabella. I just want to know more about you. I want to know why there’s a fire, and I want to know about your… mother, I want to know all of your past. Am I too greedy?”
Ben looked at her with an unprecedented light in his eyes.
He gently stroked Susan’s hair and said in a slightly hoarse voice, “It’s not until now that I really feel that you really belong to me alone.”
In the past, when Susan said that she liked him, although he was delighted, he felt a little
uneasy.
But now, he was completely reassured.
Susan was a little shy, but she still looked at him seriously. “Can you tell me?”
“There is nothing I can’t tell you.” Ben took Susan by the arm and told her about that crazy
woman.
He told Susan how that woman gave birth to him, but eloped with another man in order to pursue true love.

After the man died. She suddenly came back and said that she regretted it and wanted to make it up to her son.
He talked about how happy and expectant he was at that time.
But unexpectedly, that woman set a fire. She laughed wildly, saying that it was Ben’s father who killed her lover and that Ben should pay the price.
What a ridiculous logic.
That woman gave birth to him and abandoned him.
In the end, she placed all of her hatred on him and even felt that it was a matter of course.
Ben spoke calmly.
But tears welled up in Susan’s eyes.
She didn’t want Ben to see her tears, so she just gently rubbed against his chest.
“Actually, Susan, that woman is no longer important to me,” Ben said.
He removed the scar, which proved that he had let it go.
It didn’t mean he had forgiven that woman, but that there was no need to waste time hating her.
After all, she had been punished and was still in prison, living a dark life.
