Fall into CEO’s Love Trap

“I hope you guys are doing well.” Sunny Lee withdrew her gaze from looking at Abbott Benson and smiled softly.

Cecilia Glendon just smiled, but didn’t say anything.

When Abbott Benson finished his call and came towards them, Sunny Lee didn’t stay any longer and turned around to leave.

“What did you guys say?” Abbott Benson asked, seeing Cecilia Glendon’s eyes a little red and frowning.

“Nothing.” Cecilia Glendon said, “Who called you?”

“Assistant Gary,” Abbott Benson replied.

“Did something happen to the company?” Cecilia Glendon asked subconsciously.

“How can something happen to the company?” Abbott Benson patted her on the back as if to reassure her, “Don’t worry, it’ll be fine.”

Although he was reassuring Cecilia Glendon, Cecilia Glendon always felt that things were not so simple.

The two stood outside for a while longer before walking into the auction hall.

Cecilia Glendon has never been to an auction, but she knows what the process is.

After the crowd was seated, the emcee came on stage to make a speech.

Cecilia Glendon didn’t listen closely, but surveyed the people at the auction.

This look, it is to see several familiar people it.

In addition to Moses Walker and Sunny Lee, she also saw Hedy Clark and Gail BrownFrank Brown, and Nina Mick.

Gail Brown and Nina Mick were sitting together, and Cecilia Glendon frowned.

How did these two get mixed up together?

“What are you looking at?” Abbott Benson asked, noticing that Cecilia Glendon was being distracted and squeezing her hand.

“Saw a few familiar faces.” Cecilia Glendon gestured with her chin to Gail Brown and their side.

Abbott Benson only gave a faint glance then withdrew his gaze: “Concentrate.”

“Oh.” Cecilia Glendon let out an oh and stopped looking at a few of them.

Cecilia Glendon originally wanted to sit and wait for the auction to end, but the more she sat, the more bored she became, and in the end she became sleepy.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m going to go over to the room and wait for you.” Cecilia Glendon tugged on Abbott Benson’s sleeve, then leaned in to whisper in his ear.

Abbott Benson saw the sleepiness on her face and asked, “Sleepy?”

“A little.” Cecilia Glendon nodded.

“Go ahead.” Abbott Benson said softly, “Be good and wait for me in your room and don’t wander off.”

Cecilia Glendon couldn’t help but laugh: “I’m not a child, don’t worry.”

Not everyone came to the auction, there are some people who are not interested in the auction stay outside, she does not have the time to face those people, so it is better to stay in the room.

While the emcee was starting to introduce the next item to be auctioned, Cecilia Glendon stood up from her position and then left the auction room with a slight bend.

She left the venue and did not rush back to her room, but walked to the deck to blow for a while, Abbott Benson’s still draped over her body, although the wind blowing a little cold, but also acceptable.

After standing for a while, Cecilia Glendon turned around to go inside, but once she turned around, she saw Nina Mick slowly walking towards her.

The tip of Cecilia Glendon’s eyebrows knitted subconsciously.

“What, seeing me is so hard for you to take?” Nina Mick came closer, took in the expression on her face, smiled lightly, and said.

“You’re overthinking it.” Cecilia Glendon said.

“In that case, wouldn’t you mind keeping me company.” Nina Mick asked.

“I have nothing to say to you.” Cecilia Glendon would not be one to let herself be unpleasantly surprised, “If there’s nothing else, I’m going in.”

“Wait.” Nina Mick saw her about to leave and took a step directly in front of her, “How do you know I’m okay when I haven’t even said anything?”

At that, Cecilia Glendon frowned again with some impatience, “What are you trying to say?”

“There was a rumor that you broke up with the Benson Master, so I’m curious, did you two, or did you not?” Nina Mick looked like she was running out of things to say.

“It’s none of your business.” Cecilia Glendon said nonchalantly.

Nina Mick laughed unexpectedly: “You don’t know it yet, but I heard that the Benson family is going to reunite with the Hall family.”

The Benson’s are married to the Hall’s?

Cecilia Glendon’s mind subconsciously thought of Jamie Hall’s previous engagement to Abbott Benson, but the two of them had already broken off their engagement long ago, and even if the Benson family had a marriage with the Hall family, there could be no relationship with Abbott Benson.

“So?” Cecilia Glendon’s mind was spinning fast and she froze for only two seconds before coming back to her senses and then asking, “Are you going to say next that the person who joined the Hall family in marriage was Abbott Benson?”

Nina Mick shook her head, “That’s not true, it’s the Benson’s youngest.”

“Does it matter to me?” Cecilia Glendon asked rhetorically, “It’s the Benson’s business to join with the Hall family.”

“It’s okay with you, of course, but what about with THE Benson Master?” Nina Mick asked with a smile.

“The Benson Master has been in a tough spot lately, you wouldn’t be unaware of that, would you?” Seeing that Cecilia Glendon didn’t say anything, Nina Mick added.

Cecilia Glendon bit her lower lip, and for a long time did not say the words.

It turns out that Abbott Benson’s situation today is obvious to the discerning eye.

But he was the only one who was afraid that Cecilia Glendon would worry and never tell her.

Cecilia Glendon clenched her fists and looked coldly at Nina Mick: “Is that all you have to say? Or are you just a lobbyist sent by Master Benson?”

“Lobbyist?” Nina Mick looked like she didn’t understand the meaning of the words, but shook her head with a smile, “I’ve never met Benson senior, but I’m just saying this purely because I don’t want to see you have such a good time.”

Nina Mick is still smiling, but the smile on her face has no warmth at all, and looks extraordinarily grim.

Cecilia Glendon bit her lower lip, didn’t speak to her again, didn’t even look at her again, and simply turned away.

She’s crazy to be standing around talking to Nina Mick.

And just after Cecilia Glendon left, Nina Mick called Gail Brown.

“How’s it going on your end?” Nina Mick asked.

“Something not so good …” Gail Brown’s voice was shaking inside, as if she had seen something frightening.

“Cecilia Glendon has gone back, it’s a one-time opportunity, you better take it.” Nina Mick frowned a little in annoyance when she heard her say it wasn’t good, but didn’t offer to go over and help.

She and Gail Brown is only a cooperative relationship, she does a good job on this side, the other side of things is naturally left to Gail Brown in doing, she will not help, so that, no matter what happened there, when the time can not be blamed on her head.

So after saying this to Gail Brown, Nina Mick hung up and she watched Cecilia Glendon’s back as she left, and only then did she faintly hook the corners of her lips.

…

But here, after Gail Brown hung up the phone with Nina Mick, her hand dangled helplessly on the carpet, and all she could see was the same bright red.

The man lying in that bright red was Hedy Clark.

She lay pale in a pool of blood, her breathing all but gone.
