Worship The Ground You Walk On
Chapter 20: A Happy Family
Looking at the smug smile on Amber's face, Marshall realized that this wasn't the first time she had had this idea.
However, undeniably, it was a tempting offer.
Marshall had loved Claudia for a dozen years.
At this thought, he stared at Amber. “Do you have a plan?”
“I do have...” Amber’s eyes wandered over Marshall. “Our existence will be the best way to make this happen!”
Her smile grew brighter as she said that, as well as more sinister.
Marshall understood. She wanted them to pursue Ben and Claudia respectively to sabotage their marriage.
The usual approach was to make up some misleading stories.
“What do you think? It's much better than being in an unrequited love, isn't it?” Amber put on the look of a winner. “I’ll also think of ways to help you and create more opportunities for you!”
She would create more opportunities for him...
Marshall gave a sneer in his mind. He stared at Amber in a more teasing and scornful way and replied, “I have to sleep on it.”
He didn’t have to refuse her, because he didn't know what Amber would do once, she was pushed too far.
“Don’t keep me waiting too long!” Amber warned Marshall. “There is a limit to my patience.”
Now it was much more difficult for Amber to win over Ben’s heart because the baby was already born. Therefore, she had to take actions as soon as possible in case something bad happened!
One month passed in the blink of an eye.
Claudia went home with her baby accompanied by her nanny.
The moment Claudia got home, the housekeeper told her, “Mrs. Crawford is coming to visit her grandson with a guest tonight. Mrs. Crawford, you might want to get prepared!”
Claudia nodded, put Conrad to bed and went to the kitchen to help.
