Benjamin had always led a life of luxury and privilege and this was his first time experiencing the things
that happened today. Someone was trying to assassinate him, he was panicked in a moment and he
didn’t even know how to respond, so he froze and just stood still.
The woman pounced on him and held him in her arms, and then she put her head on his shoulder and
bit his neck with strength.
“Ah!”
Benjamin screamed. When the woman attacked him, she didn’t hold anything in her hand. It was the
silver fingernails that she had painted previously which had made him mistake them as something
sharp.
She didn’t have a weapon, but she couldn’t reconcile to be abandoned. Even if she was going to die,
she wanted to make Benjamin die together with her!
“Help!”
Benjamin was shaking her off from his body due to the pain, but her hands were like the octopus’s
tentacles which held him tightly and didn’t let go of him. The blood was coming out from her mouth and
it was shocking.
Boyce pulled the woman away after he looked on for a while.
Benjamin covered his neck, “Go to hell, bitch!”
He kicked the woman crazily when he was talking.
No one pitied her. They were all standing beside and watching them. When Boyce felt that it was
enough, he asked someone to pull Benjamin away.
“Hold them captive first. There is enough evidence now and we shall wait for the Department of Justice
to judge them.” He left after saying this.
Boyce walked to the observation room and Matthew had just come out from the room, so Boyce trotted
towards him, “I will arrange the remaining things. He won’t be released in a short while and he will need
to spend some years inside.”
Matthew hummed gently.
When Benjamin was caught, he saw Matthew and Boyce and shouted, “You said you will let go of me,
didn’t you? Why do you go back on your words? Bastard! And Matthew, I’m your uncle, are you going
to be treacherous?”
Boyce said coldly, “Quickly bring him away.”
Soon, Benjamin’s shouts disappeared in the corridor.
Matthew didn’t show any emotion on his face and he looked cold. He gave a sideways glance coldly
and took his eyes off the direction, “Settle the thing thoroughly and don’t leave any evidence.”
It was to avoid causing any unnecessary problems.
Boyce said, “Sure.”
Matthew walked and left.
They drove to the villa. There was a car stopping at the entrance. He had seen this car before as it was
specially refitted.
Matthew stopped his car and got out of the car, while Charles got out of his car with Tom’s help. When
Charles saw Matthew, he nodded gently and said seriously, “I’ve just come from the White City and I’ve
heard about it, I should’ve come to the funeral.”
Matthew stood there and he didn’t talk.
Charles had no choice, “Are you unhappy to see me?”
Matthew still didn’t talk.
“This is for your son, help me to give him.” Charles gave him a box which was nicely wrapped, “During
the period when I stayed in White City, it seemed like a long time had passed, a lot of things seemed to
have happened here.”
Matthew didn’t take the gift from him, he said coldly, “Has Mr. White finished talking?”
Charles smiled, “Is your hostility to me still so strong?”
Matthew didn’t answer him, he turned and walked toward the villa.
The gift in Charles’s hand was still stopping in the midair, but he didn’t take it back awkwardly, he
looked at Matthew’s back and said, “I’ve already had a wife, why are you so petty?”
Matthew stopped walking in a moment, he turned and looked at Charles, “I would like to ask you a
question.”
“Go ahead.” Charles was surprised that this petty man would have something to ask him.
“What will you do if someone covets your lover?”
Charles said without hesitation, “I will torture the person who covets my lover, then I will kick him.”
Matthew sneered, “I’m having this thought right now.”
Charles was speechless.
“You’re unkind.” Charles facepalmed, he realized that he was tricked, “I’ve come to your home, but you
don’t let me go inside and don’t serve me a drink as well, you’re really stingy.”
Matthew ignored him.
Charles laughed at himself, he was just making himself awkward, Matthew was always a petty man
and he had never changed.
However, if he were Charles, he wouldn’t be generous too.
Everything in the world could be shared with others, except the love.
He raised his head and looked toward the second floor, his eyes were dark, then he said gently, “Tom,
let’s go.”
Tom thought that he shouldn’t have come here.
“Actually Mrs. White is nice.”
Although Tiana was not very mature, she really liked Charles, her family was also very satisfied with
Charles and they were never stingy to offer help to him.
Tom really couldn’t understand Charles, he was so obsessed with a lady who had married.
‘You know that you can’t get her, but you still don’t want to give up, isn’t it that you’re just torturing
yourself?’
Charles glanced at Tom, but he didn’t say anything at the end, for sure he knew that Tiana was nice.
Coming back to the Meyer family’s home, Mrs. Meyer had not seen her daughter for quite a while
already, so she was extremely happy when her daughter and son-in-law came back today.
She had prepared a lot of dishes for the dinner, then she kept on chatting with Tiana after the dinner.
When the older generation talked, they would always talk about the children, some more Tiana was her
only daughter, so for sure she wanted to have a grandchild.
Tiana was shy and she said that she still didn’t want to be a mother.
It wasn’t because she didn’t want it, but it was because they had just married, and she had not done
anything with Charles.
Mrs. Meyer pulled Tiana’s hand and said, “You’re not young anymore, you shall hurry up and get
pregnant so that your dad and I don’t have to worry about it.”
Tiana lowered her head and didn’t say anything.
Mrs. Meyer saw her facial expression, then she asked, “Is it that you’ve quarrelled with Charles?”
Tiana shook her head immediately, “We’re fine, he treats me well too. I’m tired and I want to go to sleep
now.”’
She didn’t want to listen to her mother’s nagging.
Pushing open the door of the bedroom, she saw that Charles was sitting beside the window and he
was reading a book in his hand, she walked toward him and asked, “What are you reading?”
Charles closed the book, then she saw the name on the cover page, it was ‘Where Did the Wind Come
From’. Tiana squatted down in front of him and asked, “Is it interesting?”
“It can make me calm.”
Tiana laid her head on his thigh and said, “Then I want to read it too when I’m free.”
She was always quiet and obedient when staying with him.
Charles stretched out his arm and ran his hand through her hair, he held her hand and put his arm
gently around her waist, then he carried her up to sit on his thighs. He said gently, “I will treat you well.”
He was speaking from the bottom of his heart, the only thing that he couldn’t give her was the love.
Tiana stayed in his arms quietly and said, “I know.”
She knew that he was treating her well, but she also knew that this didn’t involve love.
“Have you met with Dolores?” Tiana asked suddenly.
“No.” Charles lowered his eyes to look at her, “How do you know that I had gone out because I wanted
to meet her?”
Tiana smiled sweetly, “I’ve stayed with you for a long time, so I know what you’re thinking about.”
Charles raised his eyebrows, “Is it that I can’t be frank anymore when staying with you?”
‘Is she becoming cleverer?’
‘Who has said that she is stupid?’
“I know, but I won’t be angry, I’ll be by your side quietly,” Tiana whispered.
Charles turned his head and looked at the moon outside.
Meanwhile, at the other place, Jasmine looked at Dolores who was cradling Joshua and swinging him
gently in the room. She felt sorry for her, Joshua was frightened now and he always had fitful nights of
sleep, sometimes he would cry suddenly.
He had suddenly waked up from a start just now. When Dolores cradled him, he seemed to have
smelled the familiar scent, so he had become calm again.
Dolores looked at Jasmine who was standing beside the door, then she said in a low voice, “Come and
have a sit here, don’t stand there.”
Jasmine lowered her head and apologized, “It’s because of me…”
“It has nothing to do with you.” Dolores knew that she couldn’t blame Jasmine for this matter, it was
someone else who had the evil intention.
“Don’t think too much, you’re also pregnant, it’s not good for your health if you think too much.” Dolores
comforted her.
“Jos always cries, shall we bring him to the hospital to see the doctor?” Jasmine asked.
“Let’s wait for one more day first, we’ll see.” She could feel that Joshua could stay calm in her arms, he
would only cry when sleeping alone in the bed.
Perhaps when Joshua was brought away from her, he had gone to a strange place and no one had
taken good care of him, so he was frightened. Dolores thought that he would slowly recover with her
care.
Jasmine walked toward her to see Joshua, he was sleepy now and his eyes were half-closed, “Jos will
definitely look very handsome when he grows up.”
Dolores looked at Joshua, her eyes became gentler.
All the mothers would think that their children were the best-looking ones.
“If only I can give birth to a daughter,” Jasmine said while looking at Joshua.
“If only | can give birth to a daughter,” Jasmine said while looking at Joshua.
