Worship The Ground You Walk On
Chapter 2 Why Is She Here?
It was around 10 the next morning.Ben was back from a meeting. As soon as he walked back into the office, his secretary came over with several documents, waiting for him to review and sign.
The secretary placed the documents orderly on the desk for Ben to review. Before he was about to finish the last copy, he looked serious.
Ben’s assistant, Nate Willson, stood aside with his hands down. He was a bit afraid and said, "These are the reports and check for the prescriptive dividend to the Evans family every season from the finance department. They all need your approval."
A seasonal dividend to the Evans family was an exchange for Ben’s marriage with Claudia.
Ben's eyebrows furrowed. He buried the check into the document and closed it. Then he pushed it to Nate.
"This is her family. Tell her to send this there on her own!"
His deep voice sounds indifferent.
He deadpanned.
Nate instantly understood what he meant. He picked up the document quickly and nodded. "Sure, I'll take care of it."
Claudia was having some hot chicken soup made by her housekeeper Becky when she received the document from Nate.
She might have caught a cold in the rain, but she would rather not take pills for the baby's sake. Therefore she could only live on chicken noodle soup.
Nate left soon after he dropped the file. As sick as Claudia was, she insisted the housekeeper drive her back to her home, the Evans family.
She was there because she needed to deliver the check, and because it was the end of the month.
She could visit her birth mother every few months, which was one of the promises the Evans offered her, so that she would agree to marry Ben.
When she arrived at the house, the housekeeper of the Evans was nowhere to be found. The large villa looked so empty.
Little did Claudia knew what might happen that night.
"Mom, let's make a deal. We'll get rid of that little Claudia bitch as soon as she gives birth to the baby!"
Claudia came upstairs and heard somebody talking in the bedroom.
