Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 374

At the Landor residence…

Penelope sank into depression for a while.

However, she later learned that Isabella was hated and abandoned by her father but still had a large sum of money on hand. Thus, she felt a little relieved.

After that, she did not inquire about Isabella and Leo anymore.

She thought that both Leo and Isabella were highly educated and would definitely live a better life than most people as long as they could give up their dignity and work hard for a living.

As for herself, she felt a little upset. All the money she had saved had already been taken away by Leo.

She had to rely on the Landor family to support her now. There was nothing she could do to help Leo.

Perhaps she was a selfish person after all.

She felt sorry for Leo. However, after the near–death incident, it was impossible for her to be as devoted to him as before.

From now on, he was on his own.

Seeing that Penelope had let it go, Charlie was relieved.

Thus, Leo had quietly disappeared from the Landor family, and no one mentioned him again.

A few days later, Ben received the news that Leo and Isabella were sent to prison again for drugging Mrs. Smith.

He frowned and hid the news directly.

Everything that had happened to Leo was his own fault, so there was no need to tell his family members and make them worry about him.

Ben had more important things to do now.

He suspected that the person who supported and instigated Leo behind the Penny.

However, he couldn’t find out what her motives were, nor did he get definite evidence. For a while, he couldn’t take action.

He didn’t reveal his suspicions to anyone and was just secretly investigating.

At the Landor residence…

When Theresa saw the online video posted by Leo, she ended her honeymoon in a hurry and rushed back home.

As soon as she came back, she went to see Susan.

Penny originally had a guilty conscience and did not dare to see Susan alone, so she came with Theresa this time.

Theresa took Susan by the hand and said angrily. “Why are there so many people who can’t bear to see others live better? They keep their eyes on other people’s bellies all day long as if they can get some benefits.”

After Charlie stepped into the matter and protected Susan, most people expressed their envy for Susan.

However, there were always some jealous people who said that Charlie was just putting on a show, Ben didn’t care about it verbally, and Susan would be abandoned sooner or later.

There were actually quite a few people saying this.

I had said.

Theresa was about to explode with anger because of what these people had

But Susan, looking looked carefree and indifferent, smiled and said, “It’s okay. Just take it as a gossip.”

Theresa blinked and couldn’t help saying, “Susan, you’re different now.”

In the past, Susan was very stubborn and strong, but others could see at a glance that she had tried her best.

Now, however, she wasn’t pretending to be strong.

She just smiled faintly, but one could see the firmness in her soul.

After experiencing so much, she had truly become a fearless person.

Since she could be so calm, how confident must she be?!

Seeing that, Theresa was relieved at once..

She had rushed over because she was worried that Susan would be unhappy and wanted to comfort her. But did Susan need her comfort? Nope, she really didn’t.

Theresa smiled and didn’t say anything else about that awful thing. She changed the topic and started gossiping with Susan about the entertainment industry.

of the

Stories of the entertainment industry were always very exciting.

As a celebrity, Theresa knew a lot of exclusive gossip. Susan listened on with great interest.

Penny sat nearby and listened to what Susan and Theresa talked about, but her mind was a little confused.

Why didn’t Theresa mention that thing all of a sudden?

She wanted to find out something through the conversation between Theresa and Susan.

However, the pair was so engrossed in their gossip that they seemed to have completely forgotten about that thing.

Penny finally couldn’t stand it anymore. She seized an opportunity and couldn’t help saying, “Susan, if no one helps Leo, he

won’t be able to reach Coraland. Do you have any clues about the person behind the scenes?”

Susan was immersed in the gossip, so she was stunned when Penny said that.

Feeling shocked, Penny said in a hurry, “I… I’m just worried that the person behind the scenes will continue to play tricks.”

Susan smiled and said softly, “I know what you mean, but I’m not sure about it. Ben has always been in charge of that.”
