Worship The Ground You Walk On

Ben was good at controlling himself and was a master at not betraying his emotions. And when he was filled with rage, he would be still smiling. However, those who knew him well all understood that he was actually not happy. As a matter of fact, he was now dangerous and aggressive.

That was true.

At the moment, he was still smiling, but Claudia had already felt his anger. She was scared a lot.

Before Mr. Hunt could figure out what to do, Ben tonelessly said a few words with a faint smile. However, in the next second, he lifted his leg and violently gave Mr. Hunt a kick.

Mr. Hunt did not expect that Ben would attack him. He was unprepared. As a result, he fell heavily face down on the ground.

Seeing that, Ben did not even bat an eyelid. He just went on saying, "Even if I'm going to divorce her, you're not eligible to touch her!"

After he finished speaking, Claudia was very sad. She unconsciously raised her head and happened to look at Ben's cold eyes.

Suddenly, Claudia saw Ben reach out his slender and fair hand. After taking a look at it, in her memory rang the words of him just now. She thought, It seemed that he really wanted to divorce me!'

Her heart was breaking, but she managed not to show it. She tried to get up from the ground. However, before she did it, Ben directly yanked her to her feet.

Before Claudia regained her footing, she was pulled by Ben and then was held in his arms. Being embraced by him, she couldn't help holding her breath. And her heart was thumping.

Mr. Hunt awkwardly got up from the ground and glared angrily at Ben, "What do you mean? Aren't you going to divorce her? Since you're going to divorce her, you're not eligible to..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ben interrupted him by saying slowly and clearly in a cold voice.

"As long as we're not divorced, she's my wife!"

"You..." Mr. Hunt looked at him in embarrassment. He was so annoyed that he gasped.

But Ben did not look at him. Instead, he lowered his head and took a look at Claudia. When he glanced at Mr. Hunt, his eyes were still cold, "Even if we're really divorced, she's my ex-wife. In that case, it's still my responsibility to take care of her!"

Mr. Hunt was completely speechless!

Ben was just such a high-achieving and willful man. He was extremely powerful and influential. Besides, he had a clear and logical mind. If he really would like to commit any outrages one day, there would be few people who could stop him.

Or, in other words, no one dared stop him!

This was all because of his business strength and power.

Mr. Hunt was so angry that there were bulged veins on his forehead, but he had to contain it. He said, "I'm sorry. I'll go to your house and make a formal apology later."

He was already a senior citizen. If it wasn't for Ben, he would not say something like that. And saying those words meant that he had admitted that he was wrong. He took his coat and was about to leave, but Ben stopped him.

"That's all?"

Mr. Hunt was frightened by his words, which is short but oppressive.

He paused, turned around and asked, "Then, what do you want me to do?"

Ben stared at him with a slight smile and did not speak. At the same time, a person came in quickly.

It was Nate. He looked at Ben and Claudia, and then nodded at them. After that, he directly came to Mr. Hunt, looking fiercely.

Claudia couldn't help being nervous. She hurriedly raised her hands and explained, "Let him off! His wife has passed away, and he just did that because he missed her. Moreover, he didn't do anything to me!"

In fact, Claudia didn't want to meddle with other's business. However, Nate was a strong man who was more than 1.9 meters tall, and was also an expert in Judo and free combat. If he really did something to Mr. Hunt, as Ben asked, Mr. Hunt, who had been in his 50s, would be badly injured.

Besides, Claudia did not want Ben to get into any troubles because of her.

After hearing what she said, Ben just smiled, looking nice and innocent. Then, he covered her eyes with one hand. Meanwhile, he took her in his arms.

Being gently hugged by him, Claudia felt at ease.

She was just so susceptible. Just now, she was hurt by him. Now, she became happy just because of his move.

When a person fell in love with someone, she would be like that.

She would embrace his advantages and disadvantages.

She would be tolerant and would get used to him.

Claudia was immersed in her thoughts. In just a few seconds, she heard the shrill scream of Mr. Hunt. She was scared and would like to raise her head, but was stopped by Ben. She was held tightly in his arms and was not able to move.

Worrying that Claudia would be frightened, he would not let Claudia see that kind of scene.

When he let go of Claudia, there were only them in the room. Nate had disappeared, and so did Mr. Hunt.

She looked around in astonishment, and then looked carefully at the floor. After making sure that there was not a trace of blood, she was finally relieved.

Maybe Nate just beat up Mr. Hunt just now. Fortunately, nothing serious happened.

Just at that moment, Ben held her into his arms again. Before Claudia figured out what was going on, he carried her in his arms and then came out of the room.

He went downstairs and got on a car. And soon, they were back in the Crawford's house.

Winifred exploded with rage at the moment when she saw Claudia. When she was about to scold her, she saw Ben. She was immediately confused.

"Ben, why do you..."

Ben came to Claudia and took her hand. Then, he motioned for her to go upstairs. Claudia was also confused. However, being anxious to see her son, she gave up thinking about it and quickly went upstairs. Winifred took a look at her and then looked at Ben in astonishment, "What's going on? Have you divorced her? Does she come here to pack up her things?"

Ben shook his head slightly and looked at his mother, "I heard that there will be a show you like in Italy in the next few days. What about going to see it?"

Winifred frowned, "What do you mean? Are you trying to send me away? Did you get divorced?"

"No." Ben directly replied.

"Oh, my God!" Winifred was so annoyed that she immediately sat down on the sofa because of dizziness.

She wanted to have a talk with Ben, but Ben spoke before she did, "For the time being, I won't get a divorce. After all, Conny is too young. If we get a divorce, the court will award custody to her."

"Er..." Winifred hesitated for a moment, and then said, "You don't have to worry about that. I can ask someone to help. Besides, she..."

"Enough. It's my marriage, and I'll make the decision myself. Don't worry about it!"

Those words prevented Winifred from talking to him over this matter.

She was anxious, but she could not do anything.

After all, she knew her son well, so she clearly knew the meaning of his making such a decision. Failing to figure out a way to deal with it now, she was indignant and flustered. As a result, she was mad at Claudia.I
