Fall into CEO’s Love Trap

Chapter 217: Crossing the River and Breaking the Bridge



The call came from Frank Brown, and Cecilia Glendon was stunned for a moment when she saw the name.

She hadn’t contacted Frank Brown since the last time she asked him to pretend to be her boyfriend, and he reached out, probably to ask if she needed help.

Cecilia Glendon took a deep breath before putting the call through.

Before she had a chance to speak she heard Frank Brown on the phone, “Cecilia, I hear you’re back?”

“It’s back.” Cecilia Glendon said, “How do you know?”

“A friend saw you at a restaurant when he was passing by.” Frank Brown hesitated and added, “You were accompanied by … Abbott Benson.”

Cecilia Glendon’s thoughts drifted off for a moment. Yes, she had forgotten that she and Abbott Benson were still supposed to be broken up, and it would still be strange to see the two of them sitting together at dinner.

“We made up.” But, confronted by Frank Brown, Cecilia Glendon didn’t hold back, “What I asked you for before probably won’t be needed, thank you.”

“Already made up ah …” Frank Brown was a little baffled, not knowing what to say.

Although Cecilia Glendon broke up with Abbott Benson in order to preserve the Brown, Frank Brown’s heart will have some guilt, but when really heard the news of their reconciliation again, his heart also has so some not very comfortable.

He didn’t think Cecilia Glendon would stand a chance if she broke up with Abbott Benson, but well, at least, he could keep her side.

“the Brown, how’s it going?” Cecilia Glendon changed the subject.

“It’s fine, you don’t have to worry.” Frank Brown said, “the Brown is not as weak as you see, and this time, even if the Benson’s put the squeeze on the Brown again, it won’t happen the way it did last time.”

That kind of thing once is enough, the Brown is not as good as the Benson’s, but also has its own doorway.

“That’s good.” Cecilia Glendon breathed a sigh of relief.

“Come back and visit sometime …, Auntie misses you quite a bit.” Frank Brown hesitated to say this, “And Gail won’t target you again like she did before.”

“Yeah.” Cecilia Glendon smiled lightly. Gail Brown had hated her for so many years, how could she say she didn’t hate her?

Frank Brown’s remark was said to coax himself, I think.

“Let’s talk about going back, I have something to do, I’ll hang up now.” Cecilia Glendon said so and then hung up the phone.

The hot water was also boiling, she put the phone aside and took two cups and washed them carefully before pouring the hot water in.

Outside Abbott Benson has slowly put everything in order, the clothes that need to be washed are also thrown into the washing machine, the box was put into the cabinet, the closet with two people’s things, looks a little crowded, Cecilia Glendon walked in when Abbott Benson is standing in front of the closet, looking at the cabinet of clothes inside, hooked the corners of his lips Smiling.

“What are you looking at?” Cecilia Glendon came over and handed him the water, “You’re going to live over here all the time?”

She saw the clothes, too. Why did she get the impression that Abbott Benson was going to make a home over here?

“You don’t want to?” Abbott Benson asked, looking at her.

“How could I not.” Cecilia Glendon smiled, only there was still some heaviness in that smile.

Abbott Benson knew what was on her mind and set the cup aside before taking her into his arms, “We’ll go on well.”

“Hmm.” Cecilia Glendon responded.

After a good day’s rest at home, Cecilia Glendon went to the studio early the next morning, wondering how it was doing after being away for so long.

Everyone in the studio thought she was out for a break, so none of them called to ask her about work during this period, trying to give her a good break.

When Cecilia Glendon arrived at the studio, she only saw Susan, who is always the first to arrive.

Susan’s sense of hearing was acute, and although she was drawing with her head down, the sound of Cecilia Glendon’s footsteps as she stepped in made her look up quickly.

She was a little shocked when the figure of Cecilia Glendon appeared in her eyes, “Sister Cecilia Glendon, you’re back!”

“Yeah, back.” Cecilia Glendon walked over with her things and said with a smile, “You’re still here so early.”

“I’m used to coming at this time.” Susan blushed, “Sister Cecilia Glendon, are you having a good time out there?”

“Not bad.” Cecilia Glendon smiled, “How about you guys, how’s the studio been?”

“It’s good. We’re getting a lot more orders.” Susan doesn’t know if that counts as good, but it seems to her that now everyone is too busy for small talk, and even chatterbox Luna Miller doesn’t talk much every day.

“Have you had breakfast yet?” Cecilia Glendon placed the breakfast she had brought on the table, “I got some breakfast.”

Although Susan had already eaten, she shook her head, “Not yet, I’ll wait until everyone arrives to eat together.”

“That’s fine.” Cecilia Glendon nodded.

The two sat and chatted for a while, others came one after another, Bonnie saw her when the scream like to lift the roof off the same, Luna Miller although not as exaggerated as her, but also half a day pulling Cecilia Glendon not let go.

Cecilia Glendon’s heart was warmed by the warmth of everyone’s presence, and no matter where she went, this was always the place where she felt most comfortable.

So this morning they unplugged the phone line, a few people around the table to talk, work matters are put aside, dare to be so capricious estimate only Cecilia Glendon.

They didn’t have long to talk, though, as an unexpected visitor appeared in the studio.

Hedy Clark’s appearance was a surprise to everyone. Cecilia Glendon hesitated when she saw her figure appear at the studio door, but got up and walked towards her.

“You’re back.” Hedy Clark saw her, and his face was very complicated.

“Looking for me for something?” Cecilia Glendon asked.

“Did you … you make up with THE Benson Master?” Hedy Clark asked, frowning.

Cecilia Glendon didn’t hide it, but she didn’t publicize it either, but how did Hedy Clark know about it?

“How do you know?”

“Because Master Benson already knows.” Hedy Clark said, “You have to be careful, the old man will make his move soon.”

“Why do you want to help me?” Cecilia Glendon looked at her suspiciously, thinking, “Is this another one of Hedy Clark’s ploys?

“Would you believe me if I said that I regretted it?” The corner of Hedy Clark’s mouth curled up in a bitter arc, “I can barely keep my studio open anymore, and I can hardly last a month without the support of the Benson family.”

After Cecilia Glendon broke up with Abbott Benson, Benson senior seemed to feel that he no longer needed Hedy Clark, and all his support for her was withdrawn.

The reason why Hedy Clark’s clients worked with her was because of the Benson family behind her, but now that the Benson family has pulled out, there is no need for them to work with Hedy Clark anymore.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

This is what is called a bridge too far, right?

But Benson senior is more ruthless, and now that he knows Abbott Benson is back with Cecilia Glendon, he actually went back to Hedy Clark.
