Worship The Ground You Walk On novel Chapter 22

Ben said tonelessly as if they were talking about some routine, with a calm expression shining in his eyes.

Scott also looked at him impassively and then said with a smile, “Mr. Crawford, what do you think?”

It was just a calm rhetorical question with obviously defiant implication.

Instead of getting angry, Ben smiled, but there was no delight in his eyes. His expression was terrifying.

Hearing the conversation of the two intelligent men, Claudia felt she was the cannon fodder in this silent battle. She was afraid of being injured accidentally, so she immediately get rid of Scott’s arms, nodded politely, and obediently walked to Ben.

He looked at her with clear and bright eyes. She was docile like a little rabbit, and it was difficult to be annoyed.

“Just go in!” Ben only told her that coldly.

Claudia nodded and walked away quickly.

Just as she left, Scott’s face immediately clouded, “Mr. Crawford. I think you have a fetish to pick up leftovers? This is an old habit for you, isn’t it?”

On hearing that Ben's gloomy expression was covered with frost. He frowned, “That’s your habit.”

As everyone knew, Hanna dated Scott after she broke up with Ben.

It was always about the order.

Scott also realized what he was referring to and nodded slowly and impassively, “I’m the latter. So what? At least Hanna will always remember me, right?”

Ben looked at him coldly, like a cruel and violent beast waiting for prey.

Scott raised his mouth, “We are alike! However, Hanna is the past tense. As for Claudia...”

Ben interrupted him, “She’s my wife. Don't you dareuch her!”

“Wow. Mr. Crawford, you remember she’s your wife!”

Scott stopped smiling and became serious, “Watch out, or else she would become someone’s wife one day!”

Ben looked furious and they stopped talking.

Scott came back to the hall and circulated among the guests at the party. Lit by the sparkling wine glass, his appearance seemed more gorgeous.

A cold smile covered Scott's lips.

He noticed Winifred held her little grandson, standing with Ben for a photo.

Such a beautiful scene made his heart ache!

He was against Ben since their childhood. Although they were classmates and playmates, they could not get along well with each other.

Then they took over their companies and became rivals in the business world. Undoubtedly, one forest cannot accommodate two tigers.

However, the surface could be deceptive. Actually, Scott had a secret.

Sitting at a corner, Claudia was trying to be ignored in the hustle and bustle of the crowd.

However, Amber still came here and talked to her.

Holding a cocktail, Amber walked to Claudia with her high heels clicking. She sat beside Claudia, raised her eyebrow, and said coldly, “Finally, you did not help me but realized the dream of another woman instead.”

On hearing that, Claudia frowned slightly and looked at her with a deep expression.

Amber was drunk. She raised her head and finished her drink. Then she said, “Yes. I wanted to take your child. Ben doesn’t like you. I’ll be a good stepmother for him. Don’t you think so?”

“Anyway, we are sisters. I will treat him like my own baby and will also be nicer to you for the sake of Ben!”

Amber patted Claudia’s shoulder, and her eyes dimmed with disappointment. She added loudly as if to express her grievances, “But look at it! You gave birth to a child with another woman to be his mother. You are merely the nominal wife of Ben. What a good-for-nothing you are!”
