Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 193

Half an hour later.

A taxi arrived.

‘Look, Susan, we can hail a cab,” Ben remarked,

For the first time in his life, Ben was genuinely grateful for the existence of ride–hailing services!

What a marvelous innovation–it was truly splendid.

He considered investing in it.

Susan gave him a glance, her smile not quite reaching her eyes, “Really? That’s amazing!”

Ben was elated.

Susan, when not amnesiac, would never speak to him with such admiration.

As for her rigid expression, Ben convinced himself she must be feeling shy!

Once in the taxi, Ben shared the address of the house with the driver.

That address…

Ben had paused when he first saw it.

His memory was excellent, and this location was right across from Theresa’s apartment.

He was worried it might give them away.

“But with time pressing and no chance to find another house quickly.

Plus, Theresa owns several properties and she may not live in that one,” he reassured himself.

Susan’s eyelids twitched as she realized they were across from Theresa’s place.

But with her memory gone, she didn’t know anything, so

she remained silent.

Amid this unspoken, strange atmosphere, the car stopped outside the apartment complex.

“This is where we live, Susan,” Ben said tenderly, “Through our joint efforts, we’ve managed the down payment, and now, we are working together to pay off the mortgage.”

Susan responded w

a noncommittal, “Oh.”

“Anyway, as long as we keep striving, our life will surely get better and better,” Ben continued.

Susan again simply replied, “Oh.”

“Come on, let me take you home,” Ben said, reaching for Susan’s hand.

She dodged slightly, eyes downcast, “Although… you are my husband, I don’t remember anything right now.”

Ben’s gaze dimmed for a moment before he softly responded, “Alright, we’ll take it slow.”

Ben did not attempt to take Susan’s hand again but instead stepped half a pace ahead, cautiously leading the way.

As they were about to reach the elevator of the complex, Ben felt a twitch in his eyelid.

It was as if his fears had come to life!

Theresa was there waiting for the elevator too!

If she started spouting nonsense and blew his cover…

“Susan, I just remembered, I have something I didn’t buy yet. Let’s head to the supermarket first,” Ben said, turning to leave with Susan.

Susan, with a smile brimming on her face, looked at him. “There’s no rush, I would like to see our home first.”

“We really should… Ben tried to continue persuading.

But Theresa heard the movement, turned around, and caught sight of Susan.

A flicker of surprise shone in her eyes, “Susan! You’re back!”

Ben was speechless.
