Worship The Ground You Walk On

Chapter 85 He Doesn’t Love You

When Ben woke up, he found himself in the hospital.

It seemed like it always had a white ceiling and the smell of disinfectant in the hospital no matter in

which country.

Once he opened his eyes, he could feel a strong headache due to the hangover and wound.

“Are you Ben Crawford? You have three stitches in your head wound and eight in your arm. Do you still

feel hurt?”

An African nurse was adjusting the amount of morphine that dropped into the intravenous line per

second and asking him.

He shook his head and couldn’t recall what had happened last night clearly.

In the dizziness, he remembered that they were sent to a country house and got attacked. He fought

against the attacker and got injured.

“We found you and your wife were hurt after receiving the call from the police. Your wife was in the next

sickroom, by the way,” she explained what had happened to him and walked away.

Ben was surprised. Did the man attack Claudia after he lost his consciousness?

The wound in his arm didn’t bother him much, but the one in the head caused continuous pain, which

was quite hard to tolerate.

When he tried to pull off the needle in his hand and got off the bed, the door of his room was open.

Simon and Christine walked into the room and said, “I’m so sorry to hear that you and Mrs. Crawford

were assaulted. It’s our fault for not giving the best care of you. Please forgive us, Mr. Crawford.”

After showing a gesture of sympathy, Christine stared at Ben with a profound meaningful look.

“It was very lucky of you to have such a savior on your side, Mr. Crawford.”

Ben was surprised and turned his sharp eyes to Christine, “Who is my savior?”

“It’s…”

Before she could tell him, the nurse came into the room and interrupted her, “Someone wants to see

you, Christine.”

Christine was puzzled, but she was still trying to finish her words.

But the nurse said, “She is very urgent to see you. She said you will regret it for the rest of your life if

you don’t meet her immediately.”

Christine frown. She wanted to know who had the guts to threaten her in this way.

So she apologized to Ben and walked out of the room, but the nurse just brought her into the next

room.

Claudia had woken.

She was lying on the bed with a pale face. Her forehead was covered with bandages and her arm was

immobilized due to the deep cut.

Christine was surprised, “Do you want to see me, Mrs. Crawford?”

The nurse stepped out of the room judiciously.

There were only two of them left in the room.

Claudia could only make the sign language in one hand now. It was inconvenient but still acceptable.

“Should I thank you for what you have done last night? Or should I tell the police?”

“Well…” Christine was embarrassed, “You got me!”

But Claudia was grim and stared at her seriously, “Yes, you are trying to help me. But don’t you think it

was out of the line?” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

That attacker almost got Ben killed.

Besides, if she hadn’t found a way to ask for help, Ben would have been in a coma right now because

of the excessive hemorrhage.

They dodged a bullet, but just barely.

Christine admitted it and lowered her head, like a child who was caught by the teacher and waiting for

her scolding.

“I just want to give Mr. Crawford a little hurt and let him know your affection towards him. But…” She

explained in a low voice.

Claudia knew it.

She knew it was Christine’s idea, but what had happened later really went out of her control.

She took a deep breath and felt much calmer. Maybe Christine was just trying to be helpful.

“All right, I forgive you this time. But I don’t think our love needs to be testified in any kind of way.”

Christine shrugged and said ok. But then, she looked at Claudia smilingly.

She took out her phone and showed Claudia a video.

It was the video that recorded everything she had done last night, like how she strumbled into the town,

hurt herself in the pharmacy, and patched him up before she passed out.

It was nicely edited so that the whole process could be viewed in a few minutes.

Claudia’s expression was grimmer after watching this, “Delete this right now!”

Christine was surprised, “Why? Mr. Crawford hasn’t watched this yet.”

“Why do you want to show this to him? I will do the same thing for my friend, let alone my husband, the

man I love most!”

Claudia was a little emotional and made gestures quickly.

She always thought about Ben first and never cared about the cost to her.

That was what moved Christine most.

“No, Mrs. Crawford! I have promised to help you! How can you tell him your feeling if you delete the

video?”

Claudia smiled, “I have known about him and played with him since I was young. We have been getting

along with each other for over ten years. Though he doesn’t love me, not all marriages require love

from both sides.”

“We are a couple and we have a child. That’s enough! No need for more tests!”

Christine was silent after reading her response.

But she still felt indignant and said, “But I don’t think it’s fair to you! Mr. Crawfold doesn’t love you as he

supposes to!”

Claudia took a deep breath and frown, “Well… If you still hope Simon’s CCU Project can continue,

please take my advice and delete this.”

“What do you mean?”

Christine was puzzled for a second and then said in astonishment, “You mean… You are Miss S?!”

The mysterious person, who devised CCU Project and facilitated the cooperation of the K group and

the Crawford Group!

Claudia didn’t want to reveal her identity at all. But she didn’t have many options to stop a stubborn

man like Christine.

She could only threaten her with CCU Project.

Christine looked at her with surprise and respect in her eyes.

“Delete the video, and everything will go as usual. Of course, you can’t tell anyone about my identity as

well,” Claudia said in gestures.

“…”

Christine looked at her, “Do you really need to do this? Is it worth it?”

You couldn’t evaluate love and feelings.

If you loved him, you needed to get ready about him breaking your heart.

That was the way it was.

Claudia didn’t respond to her and just watched her delete the video on her phone. Making sure that the

video was deleted, she felt much relieved.

Meanwhile, a man opened the door of the room. It was Ben.
