In the middle of the night, Ryan and Benyamin were chilling on the second floor’s balcony, comfortably resting in inclined chairs. The moon and the stars provided a wonderful contrast against the sable sky. The cool breeze kept the mosquitoes away.“Great Master, do I really have to do this?” Shadow asked, his voice slightly heavy.“Do what?”“Come in between Lord Benjamin and his spouse. I feel terrible just thinking about it.”Ryan didn’t say anything.“Lord Benjamin left his throne to escape from a woman, and that was a cowardly thing to do,” Shadow opined, “but he’s now keeping himself away from the throne because he found a woman he loved and wants to be with her more so than sitting on the throne. I can’t find fault in this.”Ryan’s gaze turned colder than the moonlight. “Are you perhaps suggesting you’re watching the greatest love story of the century in action?”“T-That’s not what I meant,” Shadow’s arms felt goosebumps all over.“If his love for his wife is more than his love

“Hurry up!” Jacob hissed from outside, bringing Kathy out of her lustful thoughts.“Ahem,” she gestured to Jacob that she was going to take care of things. She then sat upon his abdomen and began tying his hands to the bed. “Forgive me for doing this, Unpaid Mad, or should I call you Paid Butler, now? Anyway, I think I’m doing you a favor if this move separates you from Madam Rebecca. You deserve a better family than the Sterlings in my opinion.”She ripped the shirt open at once, thinking it’d wake Benjamin up, but to her surprise, he was still snoring just as loudly.“What a deep sleeper,” she thought. “I’ve sometimes had the dream of doing it with a sleeping man, but this damned Jacob is watching, or I would have done it now.”With a bemused smile on her face, she ran her fingers on his abs, trying to tickle him and thus bring him out of his slumber. However, he didn’t move even a little bit. Her fingers stopped by his nipple. “Look at these perky little nipples. Not too pink or bi

Jacob had gone out for an early walk in the morning. He would usually walk in the garden whenever he had free time, but this time, he decided to hit the streets.The people in the neighborhood who would die to talk with him in the past were now looking at him with either pitiful or mocking expressions that weren’t so obvious. He couldn’t even make eye contact with them for long. Keeping his head straight, he kept walking.“When I had money, everyone treated me like I was their big brother, but now, they don’t even want to talk to me. Even my own family members began treating me differently.” He felt some trouble breathing. “This is the bitter truth of reality.”An old man approached him, while walking his dog. “Mr. Jacob, since when are you coming outside for a walk?”“Just started it today, Mr. Wesley,” replied Jacob, with a bit of a happy tone, glad that someone was willing to talk with him. Wesley owned food-processing facilities and was a millionaire.“Oh, change is good for menta

It was breakfast time.Everyone except Selena was there.Roshan looked dull because his girlfriend, the one he had a crush on for two years, did not take him seriously and tricked him into believing that she liked him. Naturally, he was so devastated he cried for more than an hour in the bathroom. It was only after his sister got worried for him and demanded that he come outside, he came out and cried some more.At the moment, Lisa could see that Roshan was barely touching the food. She pitied her little brother. (I had no idea he loved her so much. Now, the poor guy will probably never trust any girl that comes near him again. If I knew he would be so sensitive about this issue to the point of losing sleep and appetite, I wouldn’t have been so direct, at least. I should try buying him some physical copies of his favorite games.)Elizabeth kept praising her mother, hoping to attract Ryan’s attention. Shawn was lost in his own thoughts. Louis and Bella didn’t seem to like the fact that

Rebecca wasn’t crestfallen, but she definitely was disenchanted by Benjamin, given how he had left her at the dining table. The disappointment when something didn’t go as she had hoped wasn’t new to her, but it still tasted sour.She went to her room, packed the necessary things in her purse, and was coming out.Delle was at the door. “Ma’am, can you give your car keys? Your father is asking for it.”“My dad?” Rebecca was quite surprised. Jacob had never asked for her car before, so she couldn’t understand why he was asking for it now. (Does he not want to go out in his own car, afraid that the money lenders will come after him?) Whatever the reason was, she didn’t mind giving him the car, so she gave the keys to Delle. “Bring me the keys at night.”“Yes, ma’am. Thank you,” Delle politely bowed and left.Rebecca had to come back to her bed and grab another set of car keys that were of a Land Rover. “I didn’t think I would be using the second car so soon.” It was many levels below her

Benjamin’s lips firmly pressed forth, and Rebecca ended up moaning in pleasure as he sealed his love on her.The jaws of the onlooking adult monkeys dropped as far as they could, though the innocent infant monkeys showed no reaction.Benjamin gently took his mouth off her neck, and Rebecca was still shivering. A pink bruise slowly emerged on her neck, and she was feeling hot all of a sudden. She just didn’t know how to react. Many different emotions rushed and rampaged through her blood, and she was at a loss for words.“Be careful, and good luck at work,” Benjamin gently caught her face by the jaws and planted a kiss on her forehead. It was a three second long kiss, and it had a calming effect on her. Her blood began to cool down, though only slightly. He waved goodbye and turned around.Rebecca raised her hand halfway, wanting to grab his shirt, but he was already out of her reach. As he entered through the gate, the monkeys screeched and jumped about on their four limbs, rather exc

Against her will, Veronica left work to Akash and went with her mother. Akash had no clue what the mother and the daughter had talked about, but he was happy that Selena had come at the right time to save him.Selena went to the room allotted for the maids, and she privately spoke with Kathy there. She asked Kathy about Benyamin. How he looked, behaved, and whatnot. Kathy even showed the pictures she had taken secretly.“Madam, I think Benyamin is easily influenced compared to Benjamin,” Kathy said, keeping her voice low. “Young Mistress Veronica is good-looking. I’m sure most men would get hard from watching a bit of her skin, so if Benyamin were to see her in a towel, he might spin like a top and fall on her. And then… what must happen will happen!”“Let’s hope what you said will come true,” Selena patted Kathy’s shoulder. “Do well, and I’ll take care of you and your family for the rest of your life.”“Just leave it to me, ma’am,” Kathy confidently said, giving a thumbs-up. If Ryan

With a white scarf covering the neck, Rebecca went to her lawyer Sheila who wasn’t taking any clients right now, but after hearing it was Rebecca, she told the watchman to let her in.Sheila had somewhat of a cold look on the face as Rebecca entered, and Sheila didn’t seem interested in a handshake, let alone a hug. It didn’t bother Rebecca that much because Sheila had been that way since as far as she could remember. Whether she was showing off because she was a lawyer or because she felt the need to do things like that to feel like she was equal or superior to her friend, Rebecca could only wonder, though she honestly didn’t care. Everybody had their ugly side, after all.“What brought you here, Rebecca?” Sheila asked, her voice laced with impatience. “The company itself is gone, so there’s nothing we can do. I can’t return the money you gave me, either. You should already know that.”“I’m not here for the money, but for filing a new case,” Rebecca then explained about the incident

One vicious punch from Donovan sent Jane flying across the wide corridor. Her head smashed into the wall. She collapsed almost lifelessly.Donovan’s heart skipped a beat. He didn’t kill her with that strike, did he? He squatted and checked her pulse. It was there. He exhaled audibly.“What are you doing?” Jasmine ran out of the room and was shocked to see Jane on the floor. She was bleeding from the head. “What the hell did you do to her?” Jasmine also got chickenpox. They both were fine until last night, but then the symptoms escalated within hours.“Let’s take her to her room,” he said.“To her room? We should call an ambulance! She’s bleeding!” She took her mobile out, but he stopped her.“Don’t make things complicated,” he coldly glared at her while firmly grabbing her wrist. “I’ll call my personal doctor, and he’ll take care of her.”“Y-You’re hurting me,” her forehead folded.He waited a couple of seconds and then let go of her hand before snatching her mobile. “Help me take her

At Sterling villa. At 4 o’clock, what would be snack time, the maids were all busy preparing food, with Benjamin taking the lead. He didn’t want to do it, but Selena ordered him to do it, saying her colleagues were coming over for a meal. The reason Benjamin didn’t want to cook together with the maids was simple. He didn’t want to be anywhere close to Kathy because the other morning when he woke up, he felt her scent around him, which made him realize she probably snuck into his dorm room. Because he had taken sleeping pellets, he had no idea what happened that night, but then decided to stop taking the pills from then on. It wasn’t that he was afraid of Kathy, but he was just being cautious. He didn’t want to underestimate them and let them spoil his relationship with Rebecca. After all, the maids still worked for Selena and Jacob, so he couldn’t trust them in the least. Soon, the guests arrived. Fifteen in total. All of them were women, both young and old. Kathy knew a few of tho
