Ice-Cold Ceo Crazy Love By Christin Donald ( Edward ) Chapter 318

Chapter 318

After a while…

Ben received a call from Thomas.

Thomas was so excited that his voice trembled.

“Ben, you’re my savior!”

Hearing this, Ben was speechless.

Thomas said excitedly. “Thanks to your advice, Theresa has agreed to date me.”

Ben was at a loss for words.

How could he not know what idea he had come up with?

Meanwhile, Thomas kept expressing his gratitude profusely.

Ben replied coolly, “No need to thank me, it was nothing.”

But Thomas’s gratitude intensified, and he went on, “Finding someone experienced like you was the right choice. If you ever quit being a CEO, you could totally start a class teaching how to woo girls.”

“You flatter me,” Ben replied.

“No, no, you deserve the praise.” Thomas continued with his flowery words.

Eventually, he said, “You should’ve seen me today. I cooked noodles for Theresa at her place, and she was so moved that she practically begged to be my girlfriend. I had to reluctantly agree after a great deal of persuasion.”

After boasting, Thomas hung up.

Ben was left bewildered.

How could he successfully pursue her?

Ben mused to himself, “Do I really have such a talent?”

In the evening…

Ben and Susan were heading home together.

As soon as they got in the car, they said at the same time, “Thomas and Theresa are together.”

They exchanged a glance.

Susan asked, “Did you know? Can you free up some time tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow?” Ben was momentarily taken aback. “I can get some time. What’s up?”

“You don’t know?” Susan said, “Theresa said that she and Thomas are going to sign a dating contract. She wants us to witness it.”

“A dating contract?” Ben was somewhat perplexed.

Susan then briefly explained the contents of this contract..

Recalling Thomas’s exaggerated boasts from their earlier phone conversation, Ben couldn’t help but.

burst into laughter.

“What are you laughing at?” Susan asked, somewhat puzzled.

“Nothing,” Ben replied coolly. “I just remembered something amusing.”

Susan gave him a perplexed look but didn’t inquire further.

The next day…

Thomas got up before dawn and dressed meticulously, ready for his big day.

Once he felt that it was the appropriate time, he left his house.

“Going to the Austin residence again?” Mrs. Smith asked with a smile.

“Not today. I’m meeting Theresa for a date,” Thomas replied, brimming with pride.

At that, Mrs. Smith’s eyes lit up. “She agreed to go out with you?”

Thomas said, “After today, we’ll officially be boyfriend and girlfriend.”

As for the three–month deadline…

Thomas didn’t take it to heart at all.

He was confident that he could extend the contract forever.

“Good, good, go on then,” Mrs. Smith said excitedly, shooing him out.

In the end, Thomas was driven out of the house.

At the agreed–upon café…

Thomas arrived an hour early.

But Theresa hadn’t arrived yet.

Thomas ordered some food first and then waited there with a happy expression.

About 30 minutes later, Theresa arrived.

She had even arrived in advance, so she didn’t expect Thomas to arrive earlier than her.

She couldn’t help but be stunned. “So early?”

Thomas grinned and said, “It’s our first date, so I had to be early. Theresa, do you have the contract ready? I can sign it anytime.”

“Just wait a moment,” she said.

Thomas wondered, ‘Wait a minute?‘

Then Theresa stood up and waved towards the entrance. “Susan, over here.”

At that moment, a bad feeling crept into Thomas’s heart.

He turned to see Ben looking at him with a half–smile.

Then, Susan and Ben joined them at the table.

Ben raised an eyebrow, asking, “Crying and begging? You had to refuse several times?”

What?

Susan and Theresa–looked at each other blankly. They didn’t know what Ben was talking about.

Thomas’s face went pale.

Thomas quickly tried to defuse the situation. “It’s all a misunderstanding, Ben. What would you like to drink? I’ll order for you.”

He desperately signaled Ben with his eyes.

Ben smiled and didn’t press Thomas further, smoothly changing the subject.

At that moment, Theresa took out a contract and said, “Thomas, to ensure that this contract is enforced, I specifically asked Susan and Mr. Landor to be our witnesses.”

Her serious demeanor made Thomas equally earnest. “Okay.”

“Please review the contract, and if there’s any issue, feel free to bring it up.” She then handed him the

contract.

Thomas read through it carefully.

The contract essentially contained three terms:

Emergency calls only

Chapter 318

1. During the relationship, intimate actions are limited to holding hands.
2. The relationship will not be announced on public social media.
3. If either party wishes to terminate the contract within three months, It ends Immediately.

And at the end of the three months, if either party refuses to renew it, it’s considered an unconditional

breakup.

These three items were not hard to accept.

Thomas agreed right away.

With Ben and Susan witnessing, Theresa and Thomas each signed their names, followed by Ben and Susan signing as witnesses.

The contract was now officially in effect.

There were three copies of the contract.

Theresa, Thomas, and Susan and Ben put away a copy each.

After securing her copy, Theresa sighed in relief.

The presence of this formal contract a sense of rationality in this relationship.

These three months were a buffer period.

The two of them could escape at any time.

“Go ahead with your date, Ben and I will be leaving now.” Susan stood up, ready to leave.

“Wait.” Theresa grabbed Susan’s arm, looking at her imploringly. “Why don’t we double date?”

She felt unexpectedly nervous.

She had been on a date with Thomas before..

Chapter 318

All their past dates were either full of bickering or arguing.

Now that they were an official couple, things should change, right?

Theresa felt unprepared for the shift.

Thomas desperately signaled Ben not to agree.

Ben, with a smile, sat down calmly with Susan. “Actually, it’s been a while since Susan and I were on a

date too.”

Susan looked at Ben curiously, whispering, “Are we really going to be the third wheel here?”

Ben replied coolly, “Don’t you want to enjoy the show?”

Hearing that, Susan was speechless.

Who in the world doesn’t enjoy a good spectacle?

Susan immediately straightened up. “Right, Ben and I will seize the opportunity to have a date too.”

“Okay.” Theresa sighed in relief.

Thomas gave Ben a look of despair.

Ben pretended not to see it.

Thomas sighed, resigning himself to the situation.

They had some coffee in the cafe.

Ben raised an eyebrow, asking, “What’s next on the agenda?”

Thomas had actually planned an activity. He cleared his throat and said, “There’s a classical orchestral performance this morning. But I didn’t know that you guys were coming, so I only bought two tickets. And, this orchestra is quite famous, so all the tickets are sold out now.”

Thomas hinted frantically: So, you’d better not be the third wheel.

“It’s fine.” Ben smiled slightly. “Which orchestra is it? I’ll see if I can get two more tickets.”

Thomas was at a loss for words.

“What orchestra is it?” Theresa also looked at Thomas.

Thomas grudgingly mentioned the name of the orchestra.

Ben made a call and easily obtained the tickets.

Thomas was utterly frustrated.

“So this is what friendship is!

‘This is what a bro is!‘

He really felt like he had made a blind choice.
