Worship The Ground You Walk On novel Chapter 67

In the Crawford group, Ben was having a meet and sitting in his leather chair comfortably. He was holding a cup of coffee, with steam coming out from it.

Suddenly, he felt an acute heartache and his right eyelid twitched a few times.

He had a bad feeling about this sign. Though he was a materialist and didn’t believe in myths, he couldn’t find any reasonable explanation for this omen.

Then, he glanced at Hanna who was sitting opposite him. To help her pay off the loan from the bank, he assigned the advertising task of the CCM Project to her and made her a partner. That was why they were in the same meeting.

Hanna was safe and sound, so the omen wasn’t for her, which meant…

Carelessly, he released a cup at hand.

And then the cup fell down on the ground and broke into pieces.

Everyone in the room turned to look at him.

Ben was annoyed by all of these bad omens. Suddenly, Claudia’s name came into his mind and disappeared in a moment.

When he was about to adjust his mind and focus on the business, he was rudely disturbed by the phone ringing.

He took a look at the phone and frowned. Hesitating for a minute, he requested the vice president to pause the meeting and answered the phone outside.

Once he picked up the call, he could hear a woman speaking worriedly, “Claudia is missing! She hasn’t been home by now! Something bad must have happened to her! You need to find her now!”

Kim was speaking so loud that he had to move his phone away from his ear.

A few moments later, he could no longer hear her voice from the phone, and then he put the phone back to his ear and said coldly, “How did she disappear?”

“Claudia hasn’t responded to my message for a long time! She never lost contact with me for no reason. There must be something wrong! Go find her!” Kim kept urging him on the phone.

Ben frowned. Why did Claudia have so many weird friends? And what was wrong with Kim…

Meanwhile, in Seasons Hotel, Claudia took a big bite on Mr. Hunt’s arm when he was off guard.

He loosened his grip due to the pain. Claudia took the chance and got off the sofa, trying to reach the door of the room. But soon the man caught her, grabbed her collar, and lifted her up like lifting a chick.

“You bastard! I’m trying not to hurt you, and this is how you pay back to me? For the sake of my love to you, just be submissive!”

Mr. Hunt was irritated and threw Claudia on the ground heavily.

Her frail body stroke on solid ground and caused intense pain, which made her have a suffering look.

He crouched down again and looked at her, but she flinched and moved backward.

“Do you feel pain?” Mr. Hunt followed her slowly.

He was walking forward while Claudia was crawling backward. The room was huge, but she was still cornered by him.

She glimpsed the door of the room with the corner of her eyes. The door was unlocked and only at a short distance from her. If she could make her way there, she could leave the room immediately.

“To be honest with you, I wouldn’t give a damn about you if you weren’t similar to my wife.”

He didn’t want her to be laid reluctantly. That was quite boring to him.
