Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love By Christin Donald (Edward) novel Chapter 348

Chapter 348 

The atmosphere was strangely tense. Eason appeared as if he was about to speak, hesitating and seemingly holding back words he was on the brink of saying

Susan cracked a knowing smile and said, You know, I just remembered I left something at home. I’ll go grab it.” 

Susan quickly grabbed Ben, pulling him to his feet. She then started giving Penny frantic, meaningful glances, desperately trying to communicate something without words

The typically intuitive Penny appeared unusually unaware of Susan’s subtle cues this time. She was entirely engrossed in observing Emma, her gaze unblinking and steadfast

Penny,” called Susan, a bit perplexed

Penny didn’t respond

Penny was lost in her thoughts until Susan’s tug brought her back to the present moment

What’s up?Penny managed a strained smile

Hey, come with me to grab something from next door?Susan asked with a smile

What is it? Just have the servant bring it over,Penny didn’t want to understand Susan’s hint

She was adamant not to leave Eason and Emma alone together

Penny was determined to play dumb

That’s when Eason spoke up, “Penny, go with Susan. Help her find the thing.” 

Penny looked sharply at Eason

Penny thought, Did he actually want me out of the way too?”

Chapter 345 

Penny’s face turned deathly pale

Alright, give me a hand here,Susan said cheerily, oblivious to the underlying tension. Giggling, she tugged Penny along

Penny didn’t resist, allowing herself to be led away in a daze

It was the Landor residence next door

Upon entering the house, Susan teased, Hey Penny, you seemed totally lost in space today. Clearly, those two wanted some alone time. We shouldn’t be hanging around like awkward third wheels.” 

Penny pursed her lips, looked at Susan, and asked, Do you know Emma?” 

Susan nodded and said, Yeah, she’s on my team. Funny enough, Eason only met her because of me.” 

You?Penny suddenly turned to Susan, her gaze tinged with an odd curiosity

Susan’s eyes sparkled with amusement, Totally. If those two end up together, Eason definitely owes 

me one.” 

Penny took a deep breath, emotions swirling inside her

Initially, she felt a pang of selfblame. She regretted giving Emma a chance, cursing her own smarts for turning against herself

But now, she realized she had only made a minor mistake

Penny thought, The real culprit, clearly, was Susan. If it weren’t for Susan, Eason would never have met Emma. Not meeting Emma, naturally, there would be no story to follow. So, all of this was totally stirred up by Susan.” 

Penny understood that holding a grudge against Susan might not be entirely justified

Penny thought, But if not Susan, who else could I blame? Blame Eason or blame myself?‘ 

She had to vent this deepseated resentment somewhere

Emergency Cams 

Chapter 348 

Oh, Susan, I broke through my own reservations to befriend you, and this is how it plays out? I could relinquish it all: the love from our parents, even the prestige of being a princess, and hand it right over to you. But why? Why did you have to bring Eason and Emma together? Sure, nothing’s happened between them yet. But just imagining them alone, sharing who knows what secretsIt sets off this fierce anger in me, a desire to tear everything apart.‘ 

A flash of fierceness passed through Penny’s eyes

Susan happened to see it

She was momentarily stunned, wondering if she had seen it wrong

Susan rubbed her eyes and looked again at Penny

Penny retained her gentle composure and inquired softly, Susan, why did you stop? I’m eager to hear more about how they got to know each other.” 

Susan smiled and thought, Indeed, I had been mistaken. How could Penny show such an expression?” 

Susan said with a smile, There’s actually not much to it.And she started to explain

Penny was all ears, with the intensity in her eyes deepening by the moment

At the hall of Nicholas’s, only Eason and Emma were left

Eason gazed at Emma, who was silently looking down, and let out a soft sigh

He really regretted what happened yesterday

He thought to himself, The text message is definitely one of Penny’s pranks. But Penny’s my sister, and I can’t just throw her under the bus. Then there’s Emma, who’s really sensitive and shy. If I admit the text was just a joke, wouldn’t it be like I’m intentionally embarrassing her?‘ 

Eason knew he couldn’t do that to her

So, there was only one way out

Chapter 348 

He had to own up to the text and admit his feelings for Emma. It was the perfect solution

Eason found himself unexpectedly taken with someone. The image of Emma’s tearful eyes from the day before lingered in his mind, and surprisingly, he wasn’t at all opposed to these newfound emotions

Miss Garcia,Eason took the initiative, I’m sorry about what happened yesterday.” 

Emma’s face paled. In a low voice, she said, There’s nothing to be sorry about. It was my mistake to take a joke seriously.” 

She thought to herself, I should have known better. How could someone like me be liked by anyone?‘ 

Emma sat silently, her small frame almost vanishing into the shadows

Eason felt a pang of discomfort

He thought, Penny’s actions were out of line. As her brother, I had to make it right.” 

Eason said, But it wasn’t a joke.” 

It wasn’t?Emma was stunned, looking up at Eason

Eason said earnestly, I didn’t admit it right away because I got scared.” 

Scared?Emma was confused

Eason started his story with a straight face, Yeah, you know. When you 

said you couldn’t go for 

me, I got worried. Pushing any harder seemed like it might just send you packing. So yeah, I played it off 

like that text was nothing.” 

Emma listened, completely taken aback

She thought, Is that really what happened?‘ 

Eason nodded, Trust me, I’m telling the truth. Please forgive my moment of cowardice.” 

Eason’s eyes were clear and sincere
