Chapter 3

Author: Oh Yeah Oh Yeah
"Must be hard to take, huh?" Rebecca feigned concern, but her voice was dripping with mockery and smugness.

"You probably thought sacrificing yourself to get that miracle herbal medicine would make Dad love you more. But your plan failed. You must regret it like crazy!

"Not only do you have to marry a lunatic who can't even perform, but you're about to be thrown out by the Beaumont family. I almost feel sorry for you."

She glanced behind her, then lowered her voice.

"You deserve nothing."

The next second, she collapsed to the floor and let out a deafening scream.

The scream drew everyone's attention, and people began pointing at me and whispering among themselves.

Benjamin rushed over to help Rebecca to her feet, then pulled her into his arms, clearly worried about her.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Benjamin shoved me to the ground, and my head split open on impact, blood pouring from the wound.

Before I could even explain, my father rushed over and joined Benjamin in blaming me.

"Dad, please don't be angry. Queenie only pushed me because she was jealous of me!

"If this makes her feel better, I'm willing to put up with it."

She gently patted my father's back, her voice full of forgiveness and understanding toward me.

My mother anxiously tried to stop the bleeding while repeatedly apologizing to them.

"One more time, and I'll throw you out of the Beaumont family!"

My father angrily ordered me out.

I staggered to my feet and walked away as though nothing had happened.

You wanted me gone, didn't you?

Fine. I'd leave on my own. You wouldn't have to throw me out.

My best friend, Cressida Wynn, heard what had happened and took me home with her. She took me shopping to help take my mind off everything.

"Rebecca and Benjamin are absolute bastards! How could they treat you like this?

"If it weren't for you, would Rebecca even be alive tomorrow?"

She was furious on my behalf.

I smiled and told her I was fine. Then I picked up a bracelet and slipped it onto my wrist. "Does this look good?"

"Benjamin, I like this bracelet. Will you buy it for me?"

Rebecca suddenly appeared. Dressed in a long white dress, she nestled in Benjamin's arms.

"We'll take this one." Cressida handed her card to the sales associate.

"Queenie, following me around is one thing, but now you're trying to steal something Rebecca likes? Do you have no shame?" Benjamin said harshly, snatching the bracelet away.

Cressida was so furious she reached out, ready to knock some sense into Benjamin, but I stopped her.

"Forget it. I'll look at some other designs."

As we were riding the escalator, I spotted a child clinging to the handrail, on the verge of falling.

In the blink of an eye, I reached out and caught the falling child, but the impact knocked me to the ground.

Benjamin frowned and started toward me to help me up, but Rebecca grabbed his arm and held him back.

"Benjamin, I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat," she said sweetly.

The next second, the two of them disappeared into the mall.

On the way to the hospital, Cressida cursed Benjamin over and over again, crying as she did.

I gently wiped the tears from her face. "It's okay. I'm marrying Louis anyway."

    After that, I didn't see Benjamin again for a long time.I thought he had finally come to his senses and would stop bothering me.Little did I know he had become so unhinged that he'd seize the chance to kidnap me.At the end of the year, Louis was buried in work and barely had time to catch his breath.I was bored staying by myself, so I decided to take a trip with Cressida.“Queenie, I’m going to the restroom.” Cressida handed me her bag and left me standing there alone.The next second, someone came up behind me, covered my mouth, and knocked me unconscious.When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in a pitch-black, abandoned basement with not a trace of light."Why did you kidnap me?" I called out into the empty basement.Footsteps echoed through the empty basement. I looked up and saw Benjamin walking toward me."Benjamin! How could you do something like this?"He lifted my chin. "Queenie, you left me no choice. If you had just come back to me willingly, I wouldn't have had to.

    After several days apart, Benjamin looked much more haggard. His face was pale and drained of color.He suddenly grabbed my wrist, trying to pull me toward him."Queenie, don't you love me anymore? You don't want me anymore?" His eyes were filled with desperation.I shook his hand off in disgust and moved closer to Louis. "Wake up. I stopped loving you a long time ago.""Impossible!"His face twisted. His eyes bulged as if they were about to pop out, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably."Queenie, you must be saying this just to get my attention!"You got it! You have my attention now!"He spread his arms wide. "Queenie, come back to me!"Fearing that Benjamin might hurt me again, Louis stepped in front of me."It's all because of you! You're the one who took my Queenie away from me!"Benjamin completely lost control. He swung his fist at Louis, trying to knock him to the ground, but Louis shoved him down instead."Security, get this lunatic out of here."Several securi

    I never expected Louis to come pick me up himself.He sat in the back seat in a black suit, every crease in his clothes looking perfectly deliberate. His broad chest filled out his shirt, and I stared at him through the window, stunned and unable to look away."Done staring?" Louis suddenly asked. "If you're done, get in."He got out of the car and opened the door for me. With a deft pinch of his thumb and forefinger, he slipped off his glove, then took my hand and helped me into the car."You?" I was a little shocked. "Aren't you...""It was all an act." He gazed into my eyes and said tenderly."I have to put on an act for outsiders, but with my own wife, there's no need to pretend."I looked at Louis, a faint smile playing on his lips. He didn't seem as cold-blooded and unhinged as everyone said."At least he still smiles at me. He can't be that bad." I silently reassured myself.The car pulled into the Sterling residence, and I was stunned by the sheer luxury before me.From the fou

    Benjamin's eyes darkened as he followed the sound."Harder... mmm... that feels so good."Rebecca's voice drifted over, sultry in a way he had never heard from her before.The two of them were tangled up together, completely absorbed in each other. Neither of them noticed Benjamin standing nearby."Who makes you feel better, me or him?"The man was breathing heavily as he asked the same question again and again.The voice sounded vaguely familiar.It was his good friend, Maxwell Xander!"Why bring up that miserable man at a time like this?" Rebecca's voice grew even more coy and coquettish."If he found out you came to the party just to sneak around with me, do you think he'd lose his mind?"Hearing that, Benjamin instinctively clenched his fists. His entire body tensed and trembled.He had assumed Rebecca had insisted on coming to the party to stake her claim in front of everyone.He never imagined she had come to cheat on him with his own good friend."He deserves it. He's hardly eve

  • Mad for Me: Marrying His Disabled Uncle   Chapter 5

    Benjamin spent the next few days out having fun with Rebecca.On the surface, he catered to her every whim, buying her whatever she wanted and taking her wherever she wanted to go.But deep down, he was slowly growing tired of her.He gradually realized that she was no longer the innocent, kind-hearted girl she used to be.She had become arrogant, materialistic, greedy, and fake. It made him question whether he had made the right choice.No matter what it was, she always insisted on buying the most expensive and the best.If even the slightest thing failed to meet her expectations, she would fly into a rage and hurl whatever was within reach at the household staff.Benjamin had to admit that when he learned Rebecca had recovered, he had been genuinely overjoyed. He had pictured the wonderful life they would have together.At the same time, he felt guilty about how he had treated Queenie. He had been in such a foul mood lately that he'd often taken his frustration out on her and mistrea

    I didn't tell anyone about my hospitalization because I was afraid my mother would worry.While I was in the hospital, Benjamin actually came to visit me on his own for once."I'll marry you, but only on the condition that you stop hurting Rebecca."He handed me a jewelry box. Inside was the bracelet I had liked that day."You don't have to." I gave a faint smile. "You and Rebecca are much bet—"Before I could finish, the sudden sound of the door opening cut me off."Isn't this the bracelet I threw in the trash? How did it end up here?"She looked at me mockingly."Queenie, if you like digging through trash so much, I'll just throw things straight to you next time. That way, no one will have to see the Beaumont family's second daughter rummaging through the trash and embarrassing herself!"I used every ounce of strength I had to keep the smile on my face. My fingernails dug deep grooves into my palms, and beads of blood seeped between my fingers."Benjamin, let's go."Rebecca shot me a
