Chapter 185
Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love
Half an hour ago.
Clara staggered toward her house holding Susanâs bag When she was about to reach her door, she saw some men standing there. Among them, a tall and handsome young man caught her attention. The man didnât seem to be a local Clara instantly became alert. âWhat are you doing at my door?â
âDonât be nervous, Clara. Itâs me, Mabel, a middle aged woman said with a smile.
Clara relaxed slightly when she saw Mabel Mabel was the head of the community council and visited Clara a lot âMabel, did you bring some people here to help me again? Thank you so much, but I can support myself now. I rented my house out several months ago,â Clara said with a smile âClara, itâs this man that is looking for you,â Mabel said in a soft voice She pointed at the handsome man as she spoke Clara was shocked and didnât believe it.
As an old woman, she thought she had nothing to do with the man who looked to be successful âYou are⦠Clara asked carefully The man looked at her with eager and expectant eyes, but in the end, he suppressed these emotions âMadam, I heard that a girl named Susan rented your house. Is it true?â he asked slowly After failing to find Susan with flyers, he carried out Plan B He asked the local government for help and checked the lists of new residents of the town Surprisingly, he found Susanâs name on the list.
Ben couldnât describe his feelings at the moment He was very excited and couldnât wait to see Susan However, he was also very scared that the Susan was not the one he was looking for What if th if they were two girls with the same name?â
Ben was afraid that he couldnât stand the disappointment.
But no matter what, he had to come and check it out himself.
âYouâre looking Susan?â Clara looked more vigilant. âWhy are you looking for her?â
Ben pursed his lips and took out a marriage license. âMadam, can you tell me if the Susan you know is the girl in the picture or not?â
Clara carefully took a look at the marriage license and recognized the girl in the photo as Susan at a glance.
Ben stared at her without blinking.
As soon as Claraâs expression changed, Ben felt his heart beating faster.
His voice trembled as he asked, âShe lives here, doesnât she?â
Clara hesitated for a moment. She looked at Ben and said, âWho are you? The girl lives here on her own. I canât bring just any stranger to see her.â
Her words were equal to saying that the girl who lived there was Susan.
Ben felt his heart skip a beat.
After searching for her for nearly three months, he was finally going to find her.
âClara, this man is Ms. Millerâs husband. Let him in,â Mabel said.
âDonât lie to me. He doesnât seem to be the man in the photo on this marriage license.â Clara didnât believe it.
In the photo, Ben had many scars on his face and didnât look like what he was now.
âWhy would I lie to you? They are married. He just removed the scars on his face,â Mabel explained patiently.
âIs that so?â Clara was a little hesitant.
âEven if you donât trust him, donât you trust me?â Mabel asked.
Clara thought for a moment and nodded. âI know you wonât lie to me, Mabel.â
Mabel breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally done it.
The members of the community council in the town were very nervous when they found out that a big shot like Ben had come to the town.
Knowing that he was there to look for his wife, all the people in the town tried their best to help him.
Luckily, he found her.
Considering that Ben was a generous man, the town would benefit a lot from him.
âClara, open the door,â Mabel urged.
âOkay, âOkay, okay.â Clara opened the door shakily. âI can open the door, butâ¦
Before she could finish her words, Ben had already rushed in as fast as he could.
âThe couple can finally reunite,â Mabel said with a smile.
Clara murmured, âBut Susan is not in the house nowâ¦â
âHuh?â Mabel looked at her in shock.
Clara quickly explained, âShe didnât feel well before, so she went to the hospital and hasnât come back yet.â
The people present looked at each other in dismay.
A few minutes later, Clara took the group of people to Susanâs room.
Ben stood at the door of the room in a trance.
The filled with the traces Susan left.
room!
However, she was not in the room.
âDonât worry. Susan will be back soon.â Clara couldnât bear to see him so upset, so she tried to comfort him. âShe caught a cold these days, so I brought her to see the doctor. She happened to meet a friend of hers there and talked with him. She will be back soon.â
âA friend?â Ben narrowed his eyes slightly.
âYes, itâs a young man. He looks about the same age as you. He said a few words to Susan, and she then left with him.â Clara looked puzzled. âBut Susan rarely went out after coming to this town. So I donât think she has any friends in the town. That man should have come from another place.â
Clara glanced at Ben and said, âHe has the same demeanor as you, but you look more handsome than him.â
âClara, can you tell us more details? Mabel asked.
Clara gave a rough description of Timothyâs appearance.
The more Ben listened, the sullener his face became.
After Clara finished speaking, he took out his phone and showed a photo to her. âIs it this man?â
Clara narrowed her eyes, looked at the photo carefully, and then nodded. âItâs him.â
âYouâre not mistaken? Ben lowered his voice âI might be old, but I have good eyesight. Itâs him I canât be mistaken, Clara decisively said.
Timothy Leen!
Ben immediately turned grim âWhat is he doing here?â he wondered.
That man found Susan ahead of him!
Ben felt his heart beating wildly For some reason, he had a foreboding âHasnât he given up his intentions on Susan?
What on earth does he want? Ben wondered.
âFrom which hospital Susan left with that man? Where did they go? Ben asked anxiously He looked so worried that Clara was stunned. She quickly told him the name of the hospital, but she didnât know where Susan and Timothy had gone She tried to soothe Ben. âDonât worry, young man. She has gone out with her friend and will come back lat donât you have a cup of water and wait for her?â
Ben shook his head and left quickly He believed that Timothy had come to the town with evil intentions He had to find Susan as soon as possible.
