Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

“Mr. Landor,” Isabella stood up and said softly, “don’t worry too much. I just did the first aid timely. I’m sure Charlie will be fine.”

As she comforted him, she skillfully showed how much she’d done.

“Yes,” Leo added in a hurry. “Fortunately, Isabella was here today. Otherwise, we really wouldn’t have known what to do when Grandpa suddenly fainted. Isabella, you saved Grandpa, so you are the benefactor of our whole family.”

“Don’t say that. I just did what I should do,” Isabella said shyly.

They echoed each other as if Charlie was already out of danger.

Ben closed his eyes, where a trace of disappointment could be seen.

“Leo,” he said slowly.

“Yes,” Leo answered subconsciously.

“Do you know that Grandpa is still in the emergency room?” Ben stared at him.

Leo seemed so worried about Charlie at home previously.

But he looked so carefree now.

Ben didn’t understand why there was such a difference.

“I…” Leo was a little flustered. “Ben, I just think that God will bless good men. Grandpa will

be fine.”

Taking a deep breath, Ben said expressionlessly, “Shut up and sit aside!”

“What?”

Leo was instantly displeased. He and Isabella had just saved Charlie. But Ben’s attitude

was so poor.

Leo was about to say something when Isabella tugged at him from the side.

She said very understandingly, “Well, don’t say anything more. It’s human nature that Mr. Landor can’t rest assured until he’s sure of Charlie’s safety.”

After saying that, she secretly glanced at Ben, hoping to get his praise.

But Ben didn’t even look at her.

Isabella felt a little disappointed, but she didn’t say anything.

It seemed that she would have to wait until Charlie was confirmed to be okay before she

could boast about being his benefactor.

For two hours, the door of the operating room was closed.

Ben sat there like a statue for two hours.

Susan had been silently accompanying him.

Finally, the door of the operating room opened.

A hospital bed was pushed out.

Ben immediately stood up.

He looked at the physician and wanted to ask something, but he didn’t dare to.

Susan took a deep breath and asked softly, “Doctor, how is Charlie now?”

“Don’t worry. Charlie’is out of danger now,” the physician said in a hurry. “Charlie’s vasculatures are very narrow. It’s very easy for him to have a heart attack. Fortunately, you did the first aid in time and sent him here in time. The heart bypass surgery we just did was also very successful! When the anesthesia wears off, Charlie will wake up. But in the future, you should make sure to not let him have any greasy or spicy food. He should also be kept from being too happy or too sad.”

Charlie was out of danger…

Hearing this, Ben slowly relaxed.

He looked at Charlie, who was still lying on the bed with his eyes closed. Tears welled up in his eyes.

Fortunately, Charlie was fine this time.

In the ward…

When Charlie woke up, he was confused for a moment.

Then, he saw the people guarding the bedside.

He asked in a daze, “Am I in the hospital? What’s wrong with me?”

“Dad, you don’t know.” Penelope rushed to say, “You suddenly had a heart attack at home and fainted a few seconds later. Fortunately, Isabella knew some first–aid techniques and bought you some time. Otherwise, you would’ve been in great danger.”

Charlie was stunned.

“A heart attack?” he wondered. “Since when did I have such a problem?”

He had always felt that he was extremely healthy. He even avoided getting regular physical

examinations.

He felt as if he was cursing himself to get sick if he had a physical examination done.

He didn’t expect that he would suddenly have a heart attack because of his strong-

headedness!

“Yes, Grandpa. Fortunately, Isabella was there,” Leo added. “I said before that we should all thank Isabella for this. But Ben told me to shut up.”

Leo couldn’t help but speak ill of Ben.

Before Charlie could speak, Isabella hastily said, “Mr. Landor was just too worried about Charlie’s condition. It’s nothing.”

Charlie had just woken up. Hearing the messy conversation, he was simply confused.

Susan said softly, “Grandpa, have some porridge first.”

While these people were bickering, Susan had already fetched some hot porridge for him.

Charlie had just had an operation, so he couldn’t eat anything else.

Susan asked the servants to cook the porridge carefully and make it thick. There was a thick layer of oil on the top of the porridge, which was very fragrant.

Charlie immediately had an appetite when he smelled it.

Ben silently raised Charlie’s bed, and Susan began to feed Charlie little by little.

When Charlie was eating porridge, Leo was still expressing his appreciation to Isabella, while Isabella kept declining his praise modestly, saying that it was just what she should do, and Penelope kept

praising her for not taking the credit.

The three of them were busy putting on a show.

Charlie listened inattentively, but he had a rough idea of what was going on.

Leo and Penelope said that they were very worried about him, but it was Ben who was always by his bed and it was Susan who was carefully feeding him porridge.

Charlie was old, but he wasn’t blind.

He could see clearly who was sincere and who was fake.

Ignoring Leo, Penelope, and Isabella, Charlie put Ben’s and Susan’s hands together and patted the back of their hands. “Good kids, you must’ve been scared.”

Ben just shook his head and said nothing.

Susan merely smiled and said, “Grandpa, it’s good that you’re alright.”

“Grandpa, when you were in the operating room, I was so anxious that I was about to cry,” Leo interrupted, unwilling to be neglected. “I determined that if you were in danger, I wouldn’t be able to continue my life.”

“That’s right.” Penelope wiped her tears. “Dad, you didn’t come out for a long time. I was so anxious that I wanted to hit my head against the door of the operating room and end my life.”

Charlie glanced at the two of them and suddenly said jokingly, “Well, I know you’re filial. Why don’t I learn from the ancient emperors and make a will to have you two die with me if I pass away?”

Leo and Penelope realized that their acting had been exaggerated and did not dare to

answer his question.

Charlie snorted and ignored them. He looked at Isabella with a kinder gaze. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

“You’re Isabella, aren’t you? Did you give me first aid?” Charlie beckoned her over.

She then hurried to his bedside.

She did not show off like the mother and son pair, but just said softly, “It’s nothing. Anyone

else would have done the same at that time.”

Her reaction made Charlie have a better impression of her. “I remember that you asked me to check my heart yesterday. Did you notice any symptoms then?”

Isabella quickly repeated what she had said to Leo.

There was some truth in what she said.

Hearing this, Charlie couldn’t help but nod repeatedly. “I’ve wronged you.”

“It’s my fault for being too direct,” Isabella said with some embarrassment.

Charlie smiled. “Anyway, I owe you a big favor this time. If you need any help, just let me know. I will try my best as long as it’s something I can do.”

He limited his favor to something that was within his capacity.

That was to say, he didn’t want to get Ben and Susan involved.

Isabella said softly, “I also come from a big family. I’ve had all the material comforts all my life. So I really don’t need anything.”

She sounded sincere, and she didn’t seem to take the opportunity to make any requests.

Charlie was a little surprised, but he still said, “Well, you may not need it, but I already owe you a favor. As long as you don’t ask me to break the law, I will do one thing for you unconditionally in the future. Miss Smith, you can think about it carefully before telling

me.”

Isabella thought for a moment and said helplessly, “Then please do me a favor now.”

“What is it?” Charlie perked up. He didn’t like owing favors to others. It would be best if he could repay it.

“My request is that Mr. and Mrs. Landor attend my banquet the day after tomorrow,” Isabella said with a smile.

Charlie was stunned, thinking, “That’s it?”

Compared with the favor she had done that saved his life, this request was really not a request at all.

It seemed that she just said it casually to make him relieved.

“Mr. and Mrs. Landor, would you like to join me?” Isabella looked at them with a smile.

She had done them such a great favor, but she only required them to attend a banquet.

Ben narrowed his eyes.

This time, he felt that it was fishy.

Charlie’s heart attack was too coincidental, and so was Isabella’s arrival. The way Leo and Penelope were acting also seemed very strange.

But no matter what, it was a fact that Isabella had saved Charlie.

Ben and Susan looked at each other. In the end, Susan smiled and said, “Miss Smith, since you have repeatedly invited us, we will definitely come.”

“That’s great. In order to welcome you, I will definitely prepare the banquet well!” Isabella’s face was full of joy, like a child who had been rewarded.

Ben and Susan continued to guard Charlie in the ward.

Fortunately, it was not a major operation, and Charlie recovered quickly.

After being observed in the ward for 48 hours, he insisted on going home.

Checking his condition, the physician felt that there was no big problem and agreed to discharge him.

However, Ben was still worried about Charlie. He specially hired four professional medical workers, who would take care of him from now on.

At first, Charlie complained, but when he saw that Ben was determined not to change his mind, he resigned himself to his fate.

After instructing the servants to take good care of Charlie, Ben and Susan prepared to attend the banquet.

Susan had no time to do a thorough job with her makeup because her attention was all on Charlie. So she just put on light makeup and casually grabbed a dress from the wardrobe before setting off.

In the past few days, Isabella had spent a huge sum of money to buy a villa not far from the Landors‘ house. She was generous with money, moreover, she had long announced that Ben would attend the banquet there.

Therefore, her banquet was very popular. More than half of the celebrities in the city had

come.

When Susan and Ben arrived at the gate of the villa, there were already many luxury cars parked on the road.

Just as they were about to enter, they heard a sarcastic voice.

“Susan, how dare you come to this banquet?”

Hearing it, Susan frowned.

She looked back.

It was Yana.

Yana had come with Timothy.

At first, Timothy looked as if he was reluctant.

But when he saw Susan, a hint of joy quickly appeared in his eyes.

“Let me remind you, Susan, this is a ball! If I remember correctly, you haven’t even learned

the basics of doing a waltz. Why would you come to a ball? Aren’t you just embarrassing yourself?”

A ball?

Susan didn’t know that. For a moment, she looked a little stunned.
