Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 239

Night gradually descended.

Thomas, however, stubbornly lingered in Susan and Theresa’s room, refusing to leave.

He kept persuading Susan.

“Susan, there’s only one large bed in this room. You won’t be comfortable sharing it with Rose. Coincidentally, the hotel just had a couple of cancellations, and I’ve booked two separate rooms. We can each have our own. You won’t need to squeeze in with someone else.”

“Somebody else? Who are you calling somebody else‘? Who is ‘somebody else‘?” Theresa glared at Thomas, her patience wearing thin, and in a huff, she threw a pillow at him.

Thomas didn’t bother to dodge and the pillow didn’t hurt much anyway.

He continued to urge Susan, ‘Look, Susan, she’s so fierce. If you sleep with her, what if she kicks you out of bed?”

Susan smiled and didn’t have time to say anything.

Theresa was even angrier.

Struggling, she made to leap up to strangle Thomas.

Susan got a fright and quickly pushed Theresa back down. “Be careful, your foot’s just been medicated. Don’t move around.”

“Don’t you hold me back. I’ll take him down with me,” Theresa said with a mix of rage and despair.

“Oh no, don’t. My life’s far too precious to be wasted on going down with a woman like you,” Thomas replied disdainfully.

“A woman like kind of woman am I?” Theresa was teetering on the edge of eruption.

“What kind of woman are you? Don’t you know yourself? Violent, unreasonable, relying on your good looks to act recklessly. How could Theresa ever be friends with someone like you?” Thomas said coldly.

Theresa was taken aback, her anger turning Into embarrassment and rage. “Thomas. We’ve already told you, Theresa is not here. Where she is, we’re not going to tell you. You might as well leave tonight.”

Thomas snorted. “I wish I could. I’ve been here. That’s enough to report back to mom. But what, the airport’s been shut down. The plane I came in on was the last flight for the next few days.”

Theresa gasped, a wave of despair washing over her. “So, you mean to say you’ll be staying here for the next few days?”

“Is there a problem with that?” Thomas raised an eyebrow.

And besides, if the airport was closed, and he couldn’t leave, that meant Theresa couldn’t either.

Thomas had a hunch that Theresa must still be in the Snowstock.

Just why she had suddenly stopped staying with Susan was a mystery.

Could it be that she anticipated his arrival and changed locations in advance?

That was unrealistic.

Thomas fell into a slight reverie.

Susan watched the back and forth between the two with great interest.

In fact, Rose was Theresa.

A truth that was practically bursting at the seams.

Thomas, usually quite sharp, was oddly playing the fool now.

He really didn’t know the true colors of this mountain, only able to be in this mountain.

Of course, Susan had no intention of exposing Theresa.

Firstly, it was Theresa’s own affair, and secondly, Susan was enjoying the spectacle.

After mulling it over for a while without any epiphany, Thomas turned back to Susan. “Susan, I’ve already booked the room. You might as well use it, otherwise, wouldn’t the money go to waste?”

“That money, I paid it, so it won’t be wasting your money,” Theresa said on purpose.

Thomas glanced at her, then said with a smirk, “It seems Rose really doesn’t want me to leave.”

“In your drea

“In your dreams, Theresa said. “I can’t wait for you to scram.”

“But if Susan disagrees, I won’t leave.” Thomas raised an eyebrow playfully. “You keep bickering with me, do you actually hate to see me leave the room? Rose, our meeting was by chance,

to bear.”

Theresa was stunned into silence by Thomas’s shameless words.

**Oncern for me is too much for me

After gaping for a moment, she quickly turned to Susan. “Susan, you go to the room by yourself. Do it for me, please!”

She was afraid that if Thomas stayed any longer, she would die of anger.

Thomas immediately looked at Susan with anticipation.

Susan herself didn’t understand why Thomas was so insistent on her staying in a room by herself.

But with Theresa’s incessant prodding, Susan agreed.

That settled it.

Thomas let out an almost imperceptible sigh of relief.

He then quietly sent the room number to someone.

After all, having a room to herself was indeed more convenient and comfortable than sharing with another person.

After taking a bath, Susan had just laid down on the bed.

A video invitation popped up.

It was from Ben.

Susan hurriedly declined it.

Then she replied with a text message.

[What’s up? I’m still at work.]

[Such diligence, Susan, is truly exemplary for all the staff.] Ben sent back a voice message, his tone carrying a

smile.

Susan cleared her throat. [Well aware. I’ll get back to work now.]

[Before you bury yourself in work again, care to open the door?] Ben suggested.

“Open the door?” Susan paused, puzzled.

[The door to your hotel room.] Ben clarified.

Susan was speechless again.

Her heart began to race uncontrollably.

The hotel room’s door?

How did Ben know she was at a hotel?

He even asked her to open the door?

Could it be….

For a moment, Susan’s heart skipped a beat, then she wondered if she was just overthinking it.

After a while.

She stood up.

He carefully opened the door a crack.

The crack grew wider and wider.

Then.

She saw Ben, who had come a long way.

Ben held his phone and waved at her with a smile.

“How did you know I was here?” Susan asked, with a mix of surprise and delight in her voice.

“I have my ways,” Ben said with a chuckle.

Susan wrinkled her nose, realization dawning on her. “What ways? It must’ve been Thomas who told you.”

Ben didn’t pick up on her line, instead, he said with a hint of grievance, “I drove four hours to get back here. Aren’t you going to let me in?”

Seeing the tiredness on Ben’s face, Susan’s heart melted.

She quickly ushered Ben in.

All the while, she couldn’t help but fuss over him.

“With heavy snowfall closing down bus stations and airports, you still dared to drive here. Are you out of your mind? What if something had happened.” Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Susan’s words trailed off as Ben, his coat sprinkled with snowflakes, shrugged it off to one side, then carefully pulled her into an embrace.

He nuzzled her neck gently with his nose.

A feeling of unprecedented tranquility settled in his heart.

Susan found herself at a loss for words.

Her gaze softened, and she gently returned the embrace.

“Susan,” Ben spoke softly, “I just missed you too much.”

A lump formed in Susan’s throat, and she responded with a soft hum.

She felt the same way.

It was strange.

Even though she and Ben had been together for quite some time.

However, every time they parted, even if just for a day or two.

Longing would surge like a tide, unstoppable.

What was this?

Did time indeed deepen affection?

Late at night.

Deep In love.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Theresa wanted to invite Susan for breakfast.

She opened her door just in time to see Thomas stepping out too.

Theresa scoffed and turned her head, then limped off to find Susan.

“Wait.” Thomas stopped her.

“What do you want?” Theresa snapped back fiercely.

Thomas raised an eyebrow. “It’s not appropriate for you to disturb her right now.”

“And why is that? Susan always has breakfast with me.”

Theresa ignored Thomas and went straight to Susan’s door, knocking on it..

Thomas couldn’t stop her in time and simply prepared to enjoy the show, expecting chaos.

Theresa knocked on the door for a while.

The door opened.

The person who opened the door was Susan.
