Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Susan looked at Thomas with a hint of amusement, wondering if he really needed to be so fearful.

Yet, seeing his pleading expression, she decided to answer the call anyway.

Theresa, unaware of Thomas’s plans to visit Tonico, cheerfully asked over the phone, “Thomas, where are you? I’ve just finished work. Do you want to join me for lunch?”

Susan glanced at Thomas, who was frantically gesturing “no“.

With a sense of resignation, she spoke up, saying, “Theresa, it’s me, Susan.

“Susan?” Theresa sounded surprised. “Is Thomas at the Landors‘ place?

Gazing out at the white clouds, Susan softly replied, “Theresa, we’re on a plane.”

Theresa’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that.

“On a plane?” she asked, her voice tinged with sudden panic: “Susan, where are you going?”

Biting her lip, Susan answered, “To Tonico. Theresa, Mr. Nicholas has been poisoned, and it’s critical. I have to go see him.”

“Poisoned?”

Theresa gasped in shock.

Susan was talking about Mr. Nicholas, the King of Tonico!

The idea that a king could be poisoned sent a flurry of thoughts racing through Theresa’s mind.

“It’s too dangerous, Susan,” Theresa said, her voice slowing but unable to hide her urgency.

“I’m sorry for dragging Thomas into this… But don’t worry, I’ll make sure nothing happens to him.” Susan quickly assured her.

Listening in, Thomas couldn’t help but feel touched by Theresa’s evident concern.

She seemed extremely worried, reflecting on how much she cared about him.

As he was pondering this, Theresa’s voice came through the phone, filled with confusion.

“Thomas? Who cares about him! Susan, why are you taking him on such a dangerous mission? I know him well; he’s more trouble than he’s worth. Susan, has the plane taken off yet? Maybe you should just drop him off. Let me accompany you to Tonico instead! I might be of some help, but what use will Thomas be?”

Thomas was struck

Had he perhaps overdone his act?

Susan, trying to hold back laughter and concern, glanced at Thomas. She believed it was better for him to talk about the Medical Mystic, so she vaguely mumbled a few words in response.

“Give the phone to Thomas I need to speak with him, Theresa said firmly.

Susan quickly interjected, Theresa, I really asked for his help this time. When I get back, I’ll apologize to you, okay?”

“It’s his honor to help. Susan, you have nothing to apologize for. Just give him the phone. I won’t be harsh,” Theresa replied calmly.

Susan then handed the phone to Thomas,

He nervously raised it to his ear

“Thomas.” Theresa’s voice was eerily calm over the phone, so calm that it made him feel increasingly

anxious.

“Theresa.” Thomas began with a tremble in his voice, I only saw the news about Alexander’s poisoning last night. Being a doctor, I thought that I might be of some help, so I decided to come along. I’m sorry I didn’t inform you right away, 1.

“Thomas, Theresa interrupted, cutting him off mid–sentence.

Thomas instinctively straightened up, his anxiety reaching new heights.

Hearing the quickened pace of his breathing. Theresa felt her heart soften.

Her voice softened as well when she said. “Be careful in everything you do.”

Those simple words made Thomas pause for a moment, stirring within him a gentle emotion.

After a brief pause, he mumbled something softly.

“And also, take good care of Susan. I don’t mind if you get hurt, but if she loses even a single hair, I’ll hold you accountable!” Theresa’s voice suddenly turned fierce.

With that, Thomas was at a loss.

Feeling somewhat aggrieved, he asked, “Who’s more important to you, me or Susan?”

Theresa snorted coldly, her tone becoming more aggressive. “Who gave you the audacity to compare yourself to my sister? Since you’re already on that plane, make sure to keep her safe, got

Thomas could not retort that.

With his feelings a mix of bewilderment and resignation, he put down the phone and looked at Susan with an indescribably strange expression.

Susan blinked in confusion, wondering what had just transpired.

Meanwhile, Theresa hung up the phone, her fierce expression melting away into a look full of worry.

The fact that someone of Mr. Nicholas’s stature could be targeted only heightened her concern for Susan’s safety in such a perilous situation.

And Thomas…

Was he truly just an unlearned hospital director?

The king of Tonico could have any doctor at his side. What use would an ordinary doctor be to him?

Theresa pondered this, then suddenly let out a cold snort.

Thomas!

It seemed that he had kept something very important from her.

When she saw him again, she’d settle the score with him.

Taking a deep breath, she seemed to have made a resolute decision.

Her best friend and the man she loved the most were both in Tonico.

There was no reason for her not to go!

Besides, she faintly remembered having something scheduled in Tonico recently.

She turned to make her arrangements.

A few hours later…

The plane landed in Tonico.

The group rushed straight to the entrance of the hospital.

Only then did Susan make a belated call to Judith.

“Susan, Judith answered quickly, her voice betraying her weariness despite her efforts to sound energetic.. “What’s up?”

“Aunt Judith,” Susan spoke softly, Tm at the entrance of the hospital in Tonico.”

Judith paused, then responded with a hint of shock, “You’re in Tonico?”

Before Susan could answer, Judith urgently continued, “Susan, that’s no place for you. Leave, leave right

now!”

Already anticipating Judith’s reaction, Susan responded calmly, “Aunt Judith, I’m already here. If you don’t come to meet me, I’ll just keep standing at the hospital entrance.”

“Susan… You!” Now Judith was frantic. “Do you realize how complex the situation is here? I’m starting to regret involving you in the first place. But thankfully, you’re not yet part of the Nicholas family. The

turmoil here won’t affect you. Go back to Coraland now. I believe that with Ben’s capability, he will protect you well there. As for everything else, from now on, pretend you never met me or Alexander. You have nothing to do with the Nicholas family. Do you hear me?”

Judith’s voice grew more and more urgent.

In contrast, a small smile appeared on Susan’s lips.

She was well aware that being associated with the Nicholas family represented a crisis.

It would be better for her to distance herself from them.

Yet, she couldn’t bring herself to do it.

With a gentle but firm tone, she reiterated, “I’m at the hospital entrance. I’ll keep waiting.”

“You child, you… Judith was almost in tears.

The situation in Tonico was chaotic, and she didn’t want Susan to get involved.

Softening her voice, Susan said, “Aunt Judith, I’ve long considered you as my family.”

Family…

That word made Judith burst into tears.

She had been waiting for Susan to say that for so long.

But why did it have to be now?
