CHAPTER 624
“That was a good movie, wasn’t it?” Benjamin was excitedly talking with Rebecca as they were leaving the theater.“The twist in the end was good. I didn’t think that the protagonist’s brother was the real enemy,” Rebecca said. “He was always accusing others of what he himself was actually doing all the time. He deserved to go to prison for the rest of his life.”“I agree,” Benjamin nodded. “Shall we go to a restaurant? I’ll pay the bill.”Rebecca raised her eyebrows as she looked at him. “You want to pay for me? That’s not happening.”“What’s the big deal?”“I don’t let anyone pay for me,” she retorted. “There’s no need to discuss it anymore.”“Then, why did you let me buy the movie tickets with my money?” Benjamin asked.“It’s just a few bucks. That doesn’t even cover the gasoline that brought us to the theater,” she said, “but you’re right. I’ll give you that money back after we go home. Don’t forget to remind me.”“You don’t have to pay me for the tickets.”“No, I will.”They went

The next morning.Benjamin didn’t sleep as he had to train the dogs until dawn. And then he entered the building to see how the butlers and maids were doing their work. Because he was watching them, they were naturally being more careful with their work. His silence only made them feel a little tense.Benjamin, however, didn’t comment and just watched until breakfast when everyone quickly sat down at the table. He was the only one standing, but he was still smiling as he served them food.No one said anything, even though they were a bit surprised to see him actively serving food.Was he trying to get on their good side by doing this? Whatever his reason was, some didn’t appreciate what he was doing.Lisa was eating while texting on her mobile. Elizabeth told her to put the mobile down, but Lisa brushed her mother’s words off and continued to chat with her friends and was smiling and giggling at times.As Benjamin was serving extra food to Lisa, he looked at her school uniform and sai
CHAPTER 626
It wasn’t until after Rebecca took Benjamin in her car that Selena believed what Benjamin had said was true.“Unbelievable…” Selena could only frown as her daughter’s car left. “I must do something before her love deepens for him.” She shook her head. “I cannot have a pizza-delivery guy as a son-in-law no matter how good looking he is.”Meanwhile, Benjamin looked happy as a monkey with bananas as Rebecca was driving the car. He was still in the back seat, but he didn’t complain or feel bad about it.“You’re really taking me along,” he said.“Why wouldn’t I?” she replied. “I always keep my word.”“Mm. Mm.” Benjamin nodded twice. “I’m proud of you.”Rebecca raised her eyebrows as if what he said sounded like a little bit of a joke to her. How can someone in a lower position be proud of someone in a higher position when both are not really bonded yet?“I’m thankful for this,” Benjamin added. “In return, I will take you to the north pole and all the hidden islands down the south.”“You me
CHAPTER 627
When the red Porsche stopped at Rye’s Pizzas, the delivery guys that were outside naturally looked at the beautiful car.But then Benjamin stepped out of the car, leaving them slack-jawed.On top of that, Benjamin waved his hand as a sign of goodbye, which Rebecca didn’t like because he was acting like her equal.Still, not wanting to make a scene in front of others, she quietly drove away.“Brother Benzie, who's that chick?”“How the hell did you manage to get such a rich lady to fall for you?”Benjamin just laughed at their words and said, “She’s my boss.”“Your boss?” They looked at each other. We didn’t get you.”“I work in her house, so she escorted me to work,” Benjamin replied.“A boss is dropping her employee at work?” They looked shocked and doubtful. “You expect us to believe that?”“She’s just that good of a person,” Benjamin reasoned with them.“Or, both of you must be doing it in secret,” some people teased Benjamin.“You’re all thinking too much,” Benjamin said and then
CHAPTER 628
The door opened.Two blue-haired men, who were both 190 cm tall, stood before Benjamin. Both of them had dog tags which the military guys would use. “Why do you press the button so many times and annoy a busy couple?”“You two are a couple?” Benjamin raised his eyebrows. “Who are you kidding?”“You don’t believe us?” Both of them quickly kissed each other, which made Benjamin look away. “Why are you disrespecting us? Don’t we look like a cute couple to you?”Benjamin raised the packages in his hands. “I’m here to deliver these.”“But we didn’t order any pizzas,” they said simultaneously.“I’m sure the delivery is to room number A-113,” Benjamin said, showing them the number on their door as well as the number on his phone.“I think you got the address wrong. Two rooms away, they are having a party, so you should go to A-111 instead,” they said.“Give me a second,” Benjamin then called Christopher and told him the issue.“You can’t even deliver properly for once?” Christopher sounded a
CHAPTER 629
The man in the purple suit quickly took his gun out and shot at Benjamin.Benjamin rushed forward, dodged the bullet and caught the gun and disarmed the man in the suit.Benjamin now held the gun.“W-Wait,” the man in the suit quickly raised his arms, and everyone else in the room also looked very tense right now because they had no idea who Benjamin might shoot at. So, none of them moved. “Do you know who I am? I’m Lilian Lux, the son of Nelson Lux. My dad is a senate member, and he owns multiple conglomerates. If you touch even a strand of my hair, you’re basically dead.”“So if I’m going to die anyway, then why should I let you live?” Benjamin asked, pointing the gun at Lilian.“W-Wait, I’ll give you money,” Lilian put his hand in his pocket and took out his purse. “I’ll give you my credit card. You can use it as much as you want.” As he took his purse out, something else fell out of his pocket. It was a small packet full of white-blue pills.“Are those pills drugs?” Benjamin asked
CHAPTER 630
“Stop!” The two big men immediately attacked Benjamin. For human standards, they were strong, but Benjamin slapped one with the back of his hand and sent him spinning to the floor. The second one stopped and stepped back in a bit of trepidation. He didn’t expect his partner to lose so easily.“Your partner is hugging the floor, and you don’t look sad or worried at all,” Benjamin uttered. “As I thought, you were just faking it to fool me before, weren’t you?”“H-How did you get into this place? Young Master Lilian shouldn’t have let you in. What did you do to him?”“The hour of disaster has come upon him,” Benjamin replied, “and all of you.”The big man turned around and began to run away.Benjamin kicked a metallic object on the floor. It flew and hit the big man, making him fall.“The essence of life is not in children’s blood,” Benjamin blew air at a shelf full of vials and powder packets. And they all caught on fire. “It is in love, which is clearly missing in you people.”After de
CHAPTER 631
Rebecca stopped the car by a mobile vehicle where they were selling papayas, melons, and watermelons.“I will buy for you,” Benjamin quickly said.“No. I will pay for myself and for you as well,” she said. “Eat what you want, but don’t argue in front of others.” Saying that she got out of the car.She picked 2 watermelons, both of which were nearly thirty pounds. Benjamin took care of putting the melons careful in the car boot.Rebecca bought a glassful of cube-shaped watermelon pieces and ate them with the help of a fork. She was spitting the seeds out.“Don’t waste the seeds,” Benjamin told her while he also ate watermelon along with the seeds.“Eat the seeds?” she frowned. “You can’t be serious.”“There’s so much nutritional value in the seeds compared to the rest of the fruit. You are better off eating the seeds and throwing away the rest,” Benjamin said.For some reason, his casual confidence was convincing.Rebecca crunched on a few seeds, and they didn’t taste sour or anything,
