Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love By Christin Donald (Edward) novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57 

That night itself

While having dinner, both Susan and Ben were clinging together

That was enough to provoke Penelope. She lost her appetite altogether. She did not stay for dinner for long before she stomped away and locked herself in the 

room

Sure enough, no one actually bothered her absence

After dinner, Susan thought of accompanying Mr. Landor for a walk

Mr. Landor waved her off as he said smilingly, That’s enough. You don’t have to accompany an old man. Go and get some private time for you and Ben.” 

With that said, Mr. Landor rested his hands on the back and began walking away slowly

All of a sudden, the two of them were being left behind

Susan took a glance at Ben and began feeling uncomfortable

When Penelope was still around earlier, she did not mind playing along with Ben and displaying public affection on a high profile. At that time, she did not feel the slightest hint of awkwardness

However, the hall was filled with pindrop silence at the moment. She could even hear the sound of their breathing clearly

Suddenly, Susan felt like escaping

Well, Mr. Landor, I brought some work to be finished at home. If there’s nothing else, I should” 

Are you working overtime at home?Frowning, Ben teased, I didn’t expect my wife to be working so hard for me.” 

Susan fell into a moment of silence

His words somewhat sounded wrong.. 

Even so, she could not find any grounds to retort on that

Chapter 57 

As a capitalist, I should thank you for your effort. However, tonight, we have something more important to do.” 

Susan blurted out, What is that?” 

Ben raised his eyebrows as he replied, Moving things.” 

Uh?For a moment Susan did not get what he meant

Smirking, Ben glanced at her with great interest, Are you still planning to stay in the guest room?” 

All of a sudden, Susan’s cheeks were flushing. She gathered herself and said, There are quite a lot of things in there. I can’t possibly finish packing by tonight. I shall take it slow.” 

  • It’s okay, I’ll help you.With that said, Ben turned around and headed upstairs calmly

Susan was speechless again

She grunted silently before following after him

The truth was Susan did not have many personal belongings in there. It took her less than an hour to carry everything back to the master bedroom

When Susan was staying in the guest room, she mainly followed her preferences when it came to the room decoration. That explained why there were quite a number of pink decorative items in her personal belongings

She even bought herself a Hello Kitty bolster. She found nothing strange when she put the pink bolster in the guest room

However, to have the pink bolster in Ben’s minimalist room…. 

She found no amount of words to describe how strange that would be

Susan suggested sheepishly, Let me pack these up.” 

There’s no need.Ben grabbed her arm in an attempt to stop her

They don’t match your room tone at all.” 

Ben glanced at her smilingly, Then we can redecorate the room.” 

Chapter 57 

Redecorate the room?” 

Susan looked at Ben unbelievably

When she first came to the Landor residence, Charlie told her a long list of things regarding Ben

One of the most important things for her to remember was that she must not change the decoration of Ben’s room at her wish

Therefore, even if Susan felt that Ben’s room was too gloomy and depressing, she had never thought of making any changes

That was why her jaw dropped when it was Ben himself who proposed to redecorate the room

Why?Susan looked at him in confusion, Grandpa told me before that there was once a servant who put a brightly colored decorative item in your room. You chased the servant out of the house as soon as you saw it. I guess that you don’t like to have any other person touching your things.” 

Her unspoken question was why he would give her the power to make changes to his room at the moment

Ben replied casually, But you’re not any other person.” 

He was used to living in that room

་ 

After all, he always thought that he belonged to darkness

However, Susan on the other hand, was a ray of sunlight to him

From the moment he decided to pursue her, he swore that he was not going to dim her light with his darkness. He wanted to ensure that she could be herself and continue to shine like she always did

But you’re not any other person” 

Susan’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing him

She began to wonder if Ben was merely pretending to be a downtoearth man for the rest of the time

Otherwise, she could not figure out any better explanation why he could always

come out with a pickup line unexpectedly

You can take your time to redecorate the room. It’s not an urgent matter. Just let my man know if you come out with any idea when you’re free.He paused for a while before he continued casually, Now we have another more important thing to do.” 

What is that?Curiosity overwhelmed Susan

Ben brought her to the table and sat down

He then took out a stack of files and documents

Susan was bewildered

Ben took out one of them and gestured for Susan to have a look at it

Accordingly, Susan opened the file

It was a real estate certificate

After Susan had seen it, Ben handed over with another one

It was a certificate for a grand estate

It was however not a real estate document that came next

She opened it just to see that it was a document certifying a piece of jewelry

The document indicated that the jewelry was worth five million dollars

Susan continued to look through each and every document

After going through no less than ten files, there was only one thing that came to her mind

Ben was filthy rich

However, she could not understand why Ben wanted to show her the documents

Puzzling, Susan looked at Ben and asked, What for did you show me all these?” 

Ben took a sip of tea before he replied casually, I’ll find a time and transfer all of these to you.” 

Chapter 37 

For a second Susan thought she had misheard him

She thought, Did he just say that he wanted to transfer those assets to me?” 

Is Ben out of his mind?” 

Judging from those files that she had gone through so far, the assets must have been worth over a few hundred million dollars in total

Susan was utterly shocked

Ben was confused as he observed her reaction
