Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love By Christin Donald (Edward) novel Chapter 298

Chapter 298 

“I’m okay. Yeah, I’m fine.” 

“Okay. I will stay calm. Don’t cry for now.” 

On the other end, Susan clutched her phone, trying her best to console Judith, who was in tears and 

couldn’t seem to stop. 

“You can’t come over yet. Yeah, Ben and I have been restricted in personal freedom and can’t meet with 

others for now.” 

“It’s okay. Everything here is fine, and there are servants taking care of us.” 

“Please, don’t bust in! I’m really all right!” 

Susan talked herself hoarse trying to soothe Judith’s frayed nerves. 

“Is it the queen?” Ben quirked an eyebrow. 

Susan nodded. 

“Hand me the phone. I need to have a word with the king,” Ben said. 

“Okay,” Susan informed Judith and then handed the phone to Ben. 

Ben took the phone and walked to the balcony. 

The call was now connected to Alexander. 

Alexander’s voice was steady as he asked, “Is Susan feeling well?” 

“Don’t worry, I’m here,” Ben said. 

Ben’s voice was steady, which inexplicably reassured Alexander somewhat. Alexander said, “If there’s anything you need help with, just tell me. I am duty–bound.”

Ben nodded, “There is indeed something here that I need your help with.” 

Ben spoke slowly, enunciating his words carefully. 

Alexander’s eyes narrowed, and he said coolly, “Got it. I’m heading back to Tonico right away! I want to find out who’s stirring the pot this time.” 

“The tactics those folks use are pretty harsh. Please stay vigilant, Your Majesty,” Ben warned. 

“If it is as you say, no matter how brutal they are, I will have to confront them sooner or later. Since that’s the case, it’s better to take the initiative and gain the upper hand,” Alexander said. 

“Don’t worry. I’ll be careful.” 

‘t worry 

The matter Ben spoke of was indeed significant. Alexander didn’t say much and hung up the phone, immediately preparing to return to his country. 

“What did you say to the king?” Susan looked at Ben with some curiosity. 

Ben tousled her hair and said, “Not much. I told him to stop fussing over us. Things are heating up in Tonico, and he needs to get back on the throne and handle it.” 

Susan nodded in agreement. 

Indeed, considering Alexander’s high status, his decision to stay in Coraland just for her did put Susant 

under a lot of pressure. 

Time passed day by day. 

Susan lived a comfortable life as a homebody; it wasn’t too hard to handle. 

Yet, the police investigation reached a standstill. 

Jane was dead, suspected of being the victim of foul play. 

The assailant, however, later took his own life. The only available information indicates that he was employed as a security guard by Storm Group. Additionally, before his death, a significant sum of one

million dollars was transferred to his wiles accuuri ruma 

And all these clues pointed directly to Ben! 

But to convict Ben, there was no definitive evidence. 

The case was at a standstill. 

The most infuriating aspect for the police was that the case had been made public, drawing significant public attention. With the true perpetrator still on the loose, people’s perspectives started to tilt toward skepticism. 

What utterly stunned the public was when the security guard’s wife posted a heart–rending tweet. 

She accused Ben, the president of Storm Group, of buying lives with his wealth, which she believed resulted in her husband’s death, leaving her without a husband and her children without their father. 

This tweet, written with sheer emotion, left readers utterly devastated and at a loss for words. 

Even those who were resolute before started having doubts after reading this tweet. 

Could it really be Ben? 

After all, with Ben’s capabilities, such a feat would be effortless. 

The digital landscape was getting more and more complicated. 

In secret, however, another game was being played. 

Ben had been pretty tied up recently. 

He spent the entire day locked in his study, working on code or overseeing things through video 

conferences. 

Susan glanced at the field a few times and realized she couldn’t make heads or tails of it. So, she left with a gleam in her eyes.

Her abilities, though impressive, are still very much of this world. 

For someone like Ben, that’s truly extraordinary. 

Susan wasn’t sure what had Ben so preoccupied, and she didn’t ask any questions either. 

She figured, “If Ben finds it important, he’ll tell me. If he keeps it to himself, it must not be a big deal.” 

Susan’s mindset was quite good. 

And so, another week passed. 

The case was still unresolved. Online public opinion finally erupted. 

[Even though I’m scared of being proven wrong again, considering the circumstances, shouldn’t Ben and Susan be coming forward to make a statement?] 

[I saw the live stream of the security guard’s funeral that his wife posted. Seeing those two kids next to the casket just broke me. If Ben really was trading lives for cash, I swear I’d boycott Storm Group for life.] 

[Me, too.]
