Worship The Ground You Walk On novel Chapter 58

The shopping mall had a grocery store under the first floor. Kim let Claudia sit here, and she went away to buy ice cream.

The store here served a unique flavor. It was so popular that there was always a long line waiting outside the store. It was what Kim must have every time she came.

Claudia sat there alone. Many thoughts and ideas came to her mind when she was idle. Those things kept surging in her heart, disturbing her inner peace.

She was fully indulged in her thoughts and didn't even notice that somebody else showed up beside her. When the tall man sat next to her, she was startled.

“Why are you sitting here alone?”

She relaxed when she saw Scott's familiar and handsome face. His smile was so shiny and his action so gentle. He was the most graceful and gentle man that Claudia knew.

Claudia paused for a second, before she could react, Scott said, “Are you here all alone? Is there something bothering you?”

Claudia sometimes got panicked having Scott around because of the man's alert eyes. They were as calm and unpredictable as the ocean; but on the contrary, he could easily capture and read other people's thoughts and eye expressions. He could get straight to the point.

“I heard that you are going to get a divorce, is that true?”

The question made Claudia nervous again.

The divorce was still in the air, but the news had been spread across the whole town.

The Crawford Family couldn't wait to kick her out. She wondered if she's really that incompetent...

“You have done so much for him, but look at what he has done to you! Claudia, it's time for you to wake up from your daydreaming! Ben is not the one for you! You should leave him! The sooner, the better!” Scott said in a low voice. It was echoing in her mind.

She had heard similar things many times, but neither of those was as thought-provoking as this one.

It was indeed a marriage that existed only in name. She wondered if she really had no way to save it.

“Why wouldn't you listen to me?”

Scott was nearly begging her. His eyes were still gentle; however, the closer they were, the more nervous Claudia felt.

She hadn't had a close connection with Scott. They had known each other since they were young, but all they did was greeting each other when they met. He didn't even know since when he had been attached by every move of hers.

That was what Claudia was curious about, too.

She moved aside out of manner, and then she signed, “Mr. Palmer, my marriage is my own business, thank you for your concern, but that was really unnecessary.”

He smiled and then said, “I'm doing this just for you! You’re excellent and you doesn't need to devote yourself to a man like that.”

Claudia shook her head and chuckled. Then she signed, “I'm not as good as you think. I felt really flattered that you described me with 'excellent'.”

“Oh, come on.” Scott replied quickly. His sultry eyes were staring at him.
