Chapter 89

The next day, Susan was told that Director Luke let her have a few days off since she had just completed a project.

She was glad that she could have a good rest for a few days.

Ben went to the company early in the morning.

Susan had wanted to sleep longer, but as soon as Ben left, she could only toss and turn, unable to fall asleep again.

She had no choice but to sit up and scratch her messy hair.

“Fine, I might as well get up!”

After washing up, she went downstairs and asked about Thomas.

The maid told her that Thomas had not woken up yet, so she did not disturb him and only asked the maid to prepare breakfast for him.

“Susan,” Penelope said with a hint of slyness in her eyes, “did you keep a male guest overnight? But as a married woman, you need to mind your behavior.”

Susan couldn’t help but frown.

Before she could say anything, Charlie put down his flatware and said, “Are you referring to Thomas? You married into our family late, so you probably don’t know Thomas has been Ben’s friend since their childhood. He can be considered a member of the Landor family. What’s wrong with him staying here overnight?”

Penelope thought in embarrassment, “This man named Thomas is Ben’s friend?

“Why did I hear that Thomas and Susan were talking happily while Ben had a long face all last night?

“But Charlie had no reason to lie to me.”

At the thought of this, Penelope could only explain with a laugh, “Sorry, I think too much.”

Charlie sneered. “You’re indeed overthinking.”

Penelope lowered her head and no longer dared to speak.

Susan smiled and thought, “Alright, I don’t need to be bothered to explain now.”

She seated herself next to Charlie and chatted with him happily while eating.

The atmosphere between the two of them was quite harmonious.
