Worship The Ground You Walk On novel Chapter 28

“Benjamin Crawford, CEO of the Crawford Group, Uses His Disabled Wife as a Publicity Stunt. Their PDA Turned out to Be One Big Lie”

The news headline was unusually eye-catching. The huge font stung Claudia's eyes.

However, she was even more surprised by the news content below the headline.

Mr. Crawford was faking it. He booked the Zeus Hotel to celebrate his wife's birthday and wedding anniversary and enjoy their time alone. However, behind the scenes of their wonderful night out was a huge scam.

It was reported that Mrs. Crawford’s birthday was July 22, and their wedding anniversary was January 7. Mr. Crawford went through so much trouble to use his disabled wife...

What was written behind it was even more distorted to read.

Nonsense! Those were all bullshit!

Claudia's hand holding the newspaper trembled faintly. At that moment, she had a sense of foreboding.

As Claudia looked up, she happened to meet his cold eyes. And then she panicked. In the next second, he pinched her chin hard and forced her to look at him, “Since you were not willing to cooperate, you should have refused me in the first place!”

“Since you didn't refuse me then, you contacted and informed the media afterward. Do you think it's fun to do that?”

Claudia was taken back. She wondered when she had contacted and informed the media about that party.

A look of disdain flashed across Ben's eyes as he watched her shake her head quickly. He narrowed his cold eyes. Then he didn't dwell on the issue. He leaned down and sealed her lips with his.

He didn't let go of Claudia's red, swollen lips until he felt her body stiffen with pain later. He leaned toward her ear. His voice sounded flirtatious and low. His warm breath made her feel very cold. “Did I ever tell you that I hated women who plotted against me?”

Claudia couldn't help but frown. Did he think that she plotted against him?

Did he blame her indiscriminately and for everything just because she had exposed his secret at the previous dinner party?

Besides, there were many people who knew about her birthday,

for example, Amber and Blair.

As for the date of their marriage registration, anyone could find it out by pulling a file from the Civil Affairs Bureau. She didn’t need to inform the media about that date.

Ben saw her complicated eyes, which looked powerless and more like a cunning look in one's eyes when one was at the end of one's rope.

“Do you still think you're innocent?” He sneered faintly, “Nate found your call records from the reporter's phone. How do you explain this?”

The time when Claudia contacted the reporter coincided with the time when the news broke out.

Claudia was slightly stunned. Call records?!

She hadn't contacted anyone other than Kim in the last few days...

A person had called her anonymously before saying it was from a sanatorium. And that person had sent her a message. Could that be the phone number of the reporter?
