Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love By Christin Donald (Edward) novel Chapter 309

Chapter 309 

Carrying a heavy heart, Susan, weighed down by guilt, spent a long time caring for Penny at the hospital before she finally left. 

“Okay, let it go,” Ben comforted, softly tousling her hair. “We’ll find a way to make it right with her. That’s what counts.” 

“Yeah,” Susan agreed, attempting to sound more upbeat. “I’m the reason she injured her leg. Ben, I see now that I’ve been too small–minded. Going forward, I’m going to be genuinely kind to her.” 

Ben nodded but didn’t say much. 

He kept his suspicions to himself. 

Everything would wait until the investigation results were in. 

Penny was hospitalized for a few days. 

During this time, Judith and Susan made several trips to the hospital. 

Ben also spent these days thoroughly investigating the matter. 

To his surprise, the incident wasn’t a self–staged drama by Penny. 

He looked into the owner of the red car involved. 

A man who had spent his whole life in Coraland, making any ties to Penny pretty much a long shot. 

Moreover, the surveillance footage showed that the crash was caused by a sudden argument between 

the couple in the car. In anger, the man drove recklessly, and unexpectedly, the brakes failed, leading to 

the accident. 

If it was intentional, the argument beforehand seemed unnecessary. 

Moreover, the brake failure was indeed confirmed upon inspection.

Considering all other details, Ben believed it was truly an accident. 

So, Penny really did save Susan. 

Once everything was clear, even Ben felt a sense of gratitude toward Penny. 

Without Penny stepping in, who knew where Susan might have ended up? 

While Penny might have had her own reasons for rescuing Susan, the fact remained that she saved her 

life. 

Ben thought to himself, “By saving Susan, Penny also saved me. 

He and his wife truly owed Penny a great debt. 

“The Beef Broth is ready. I’ll take it to the hospital,” said Susan, carefully placing the soup in a thermos. 

“Okay, I’ll come with you,” Ben responded. 

Susan looked at him, slightly puzzled. 

Ben looked puzzled. “Why are you staring at me like that?“. 

Susan arched an eyebrow. “Don’t play dumb. The last time I talked about going to the hospital, your 

didn’t object, but you sounded pretty indifferent. Now, you actually sound concerned.” 

Just as Ben understood her, Susan was also attuned to his emotional shifts. 

Ben couldn’t help but laugh. “You can even pick up on that.” 

“Of course,” Susan said, lifting her head slightly. 

Ben spoke candidly, “I had someone investigate the incident thoroughly, and it truly was an accident.” 

“It was always an accident,” Susan said, then suddenly realizing something, she looked at Ben sharply. Did you initially suspect it was premeditated

Piecing this together with Ben’s response, Susan got it. “You think Penny orchestrated the whole accident? Isn’t that kind of far–fetched? I mean, if the car had veered just a bit more, she could’ve been crippled.” 

Ben sighed, somewhat resigned. “Maybe I think too ill of people.” 

Susan understood Ben’s concerns and sighed. “This time, Penny really saved my life. I don’t know how to repay her.” 

“Take your time. There will be an opportunity,” Ben reassured her. 

Susan nodded firmly. 

When they arrived at the hospital, Judith was also there. 

Susan passed the Beef Broth to Judith, who then helped Penny with her meal. 

Penny quietly had her meal and then turned her gaze toward Susan. 

“Susan, you seem very serious today,” she observed. 

Susan forced a smile, not revealing her guilt over Ben’s previous suspicions about Penny. 

Judith patted Susan’s hand. “Susan, don’t overthink it. The driver has been punished; it was just an 

accident.” 

“Yes, I’m really fine. I’ll be walking around as soon as the stitches are removed,” Penny said with a smile. 

Penny’s warm smile only intensified Susan’s guilt. 

Penny sighed. 

She looked at Judith and Ben. “Susan seems troubled. How about I talk to her alone?” 

Ben glanced at Susan.. 

Susan nodded slightly.

Judith stood up and let out a sigh. “I’ll leave you two to talk then.” 

Judith and Ben left, closing the door behind them. 

Penny looked at Susan with a knowing gaze. “Did Mr. Landor always suspect that I orchestrated the accident?” 

Caught by Penny’s words, Susan felt even more guilty. “He was just being overly cautious.”
