Chapter 175

“I went to check. Ben’s ex–wife is really called Monica Lynn.”

“Moreover, the Landor family and the Lynn family have been friends for many years.”

“Ben and Monica’s marriage didn’t end normally. Monica had an accident and had no choice but to end it!”

“I suddenly understand something…”

“So, Susan is really just a beard!”

“If I were Ben, I would have divorced Susan long ago!”

“That’s right, she, actually framed Monica like this. She’s gone too far.”

Among these comments, there were paid Internet trolls and sincere readers. All the comments mixed together were in an uproar.

After Theresa read it, she was in disbelief.

How shameless was the Lynn family to issue such an article?

When Monica read the article herself, wouldn’t her conscience be hurt?

Of course, Monica’s conscience wouldn’t hurt. She even downloaded the article and read it 17 or 18 times an hour.

Theresa took a deep breath and was about to comment.

Suddenly, she thought of something and quickly glanced at Susan.

Susan was bored.

She was also scrolling through her phone too.

Looking at the interface, it was undoubtedly Twitter.

Theresa’s pupils suddenly contracted. She reached out and grabbed Susan by the hand.

“Don’t look at your phone, Susan. Why don’t we go out and play?”

“Go out to play? Forget it. I don’t want to move,” Susan said as she refreshed the screen.

Then, the all–pervasive article popped up.

Susan was stunned when she saw the title.

Theresa panicked. “That’s nonsense. Don’t look at it.”

Susan pursed her lips and quickly looked down.

Theresa rubbed her forehead and observed Susan nervously.

It took Susan five minutes to finish reading it calmly. Then, she smiled at Theresa and said, “Look at what’s written in it. I’m really detestable.”

“It’s all made up by the Lynn family. Shame on them,” Theresa said hurriedly, “Susan, don’t think too much about it.”

“It’s all fake. I’ve thought too much.” Susan forced a smile. “I’m a little tired. I’ll go back to my room first.”

She got up, walked back to her room with steady steps, and closed the door.

Theresa looked at the closed door with a trace of worry in her eyes.

In the Landor family’s residence.

Ben was also informed of the existence of this article.

He read through it quickly, and a trace of rage flashed through his eyes.

Damn it!

What the hell was written on it?

He had only met Monica to mislead her.

But now, Susan must have seen what the Lynn family had done.

What would Susan think when she saw such an article?

These three days were already very difficult for the two of them.

Such a report was like adding fuel to the fire.

“Mr. Landor, look, this article…” The secretary looked at Ben cautiously.

Ben sneered. “Of course, delete this kind of article on the Internet immediately! Also, prepare a lawyer’s letter for me.”

“Yes.” The secretary quickly agreed.

He turned around and was about to do it.

Ben cooled down a little, but he stopped him again.

“Mr. Landor?” The secretary looked at him in confusion.

Ben looked gloomy. “Don’t do it immediately. Prepare the lawyer’s letter first and send it tomorrow.”

Tomorrow?

Why did he have to wait until tomorrow?

The secretary was a little puzzled, but he had already understood what it meant to ask something that shouldn’t be asked.

He just wrote down what Ben said and then left.

As Ben looked at this article, which was widely spread on the Internet, his eyes darkened.

The Lynn family had really found a good opportunity.

Now was the most critical time to mislead Isabella.

If he took action, all his early–stage preparations would be in vain.

This article could not be deleted for the time being.

At the very least, he had to wait until tomorrow!

But Susan…

At the thought of Susan, Ben felt a surge of emotions.

In order to make his act appear realistic, he had not used any means to find Susan in the past few days.

But at the same time, he also knew that many people were looking for Susan.

If Susan really lived in a hotel, she should have been found a long time ago.

But until now, there was still no news.

Where… where did Susan go?

Looking at the empty room, Ben wanted to look for her several times at all costs.

However, if he went to find her, he would expose himself, and there would be no way to prove Susan was innocent in a short time.

Susan had met Monica before.

She should know that it was impossible for him and Monica to remarry.

She also knew that most of the comments on the Internet were not credible.

Ben clenched his fists tightly, and there seemed to be a storm brewing in his eyes.

One day, only the last day was left.

Tomorrow, the truth would be revealed!

In the room.

Susan sat in front of the computer screen for a long time.

Of course, she knew that this article was nonsense.

But this nonsensical article had been existing for a long time, which was enough to explain the problem.

If Ben still cared about her, this article would immediately disappear from the Internet with just a word from him.

But he didn’t do anything.

He had completely believed that she had harmed Penelope, so he had made up his mind to end things with her, hadn’t he?

Susan lowered her gaze, feeling a little ironic for some reason.

All of a sudden, she had a strong impulse to leave this place as far as possible.

Otherwise, would she have to stay behind and watch them reunite with each other?

She had already given the divorce agreement to Ben.

With this document, Ben could end their marriage easily.

It didn’t matter whether she was there or not.

Susan walked to the window and stood there quietly for a while.

Then, she packed up and walked out of the door.

Theresa was waiting in the living room, but she had fallen asleep because she was too sleepy.

Susan gently tucked her in and placed a letter on the coffee table. Then, she took her suitcase and left without looking back.

Theresa opened her eyes in a daze and was stunned to find the quilt on her body.

“Susan?” Theresa called out.

No one responded.

The door of the guest room was open.

Theresa was stunned for a moment before she suddenly realized something.

She rushed into the room to look for Susan without even putting on her indoor slippers.

“Susan!”

“Susan!”

There was no one in the guest room.

There was no one in the bathroom either.

There was no one in the kitchen too.

Her suite was so small that Theresa finished searching it in a short while.

But she couldn’t find any trace of Susan.

Theresa ran back to the living room and found the letter that Susan had left behind.

“Theresa, thank you for taking me in. I suddenly want to go on a trip. The time is uncertain, and it’ll probably be for a few months. When I come back, I’ll treat you to a good meal. You don’t have to call me. I’m going to change a SIM card, maybe.”

She suddenly wanted to go on a trip?

And she was going to change her SIM card?

Theresa’s expression changed.

How did she fall asleep like this last night?

Susan left alone in her current state.

Would she do anything stupid?

Susan had mentioned in the letter that she would be back in a few months.

But how many months was it?

But what if she didn’t come back?

Theresa held the letter and smiled bitterly. She said in a low voice, “It’s not easy for me to find a trustworthy friend. Don’t… don’t let anything bad happen to you…”
