“I know Rebecca better than you know,” said Elizabeth, still putting on a gentle yet scary smile that made well use of her brows to convey her hidden feelings. “She hates liars. Maybe ‘despise’ is a more appropriate word. Once I tell her how much of a fraudster you’re, that your whole career and living is based on a lie, she will never trust you a word you say ever again. That’s the kind of girl she is.”Benjamin’s heart pounded against his chest so hard he couldn’t clearly hear her voice. “What do you want?”“Fufu, what do I want?” Elizabeth seemed amused. “What would I want from a guy who doesn’t shave his beard or even comb his hair? I’m starting to wonder if you’re hiding yourself from someone, which is why you’re not willing to shave yourself. This long hair also covers your face well. So firstly, why don’t we get you a neat haircut and shave in the saloon I choose. I’ll also get my hair styling done, but we’ll be using your money of course.”Benjamin clenched his fists so hard hi

Jane’s apartment was a lone mountain, dwarfing the other rooftops in the neighborhood. Now it was fully covered in dazzling lights and caught everyone’s attention. Jane’s family had been living off like royals in this neighborhood from the rents alone.When regular cars arrived, Jane’s parents didn’t bother to come out to personally receive them. When the Porsche stopped outside, Jane’s mother came to receive them. She put on quite a bit of gold and was all smiles as she received Elizabeth and others. She thought Benjamin was a driver, so she didn’t even spare a glance at him and left.Elizabeth and her parents also completely ignored Benjamin after getting to the apartment, but they kept talking to almost everyone they thought were worth their time.Benjamin went to park the car in the parking space, but there was no room. He had to go to the nearest parking lane and park there. At the same time, another man was parking his car there. He saw Benjamin and immediately frowned in anger.

A hand rested on Benjamin’s shoulder from behind. “Here you are.”Benjamin turned. It was the police officer who grinned and then immediately threw a straight quick punch in his face.Benjamin tilted his head at the last second. “Too slow,” his gaze turned sharp, and before the officer knew it, Benjamin’s knuckles struck his throat, and his feet shuffled back as he struggled to breathe. A second later, Benjamin came to his senses and tried to help the officer. “Are you okay, officer? I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to…”The officer, however, kept moving away with his back lowered.“I hope I didn’t cause irreparable damage,” Benjamin thought.“Hey, Driver!” Elizabeth finally found him. “What are you doing out here?” she came up to him, acting all so naturally, then she lowered her voice. “Are you trying to steal someone else’s gift box?”“What?” Benjamin frowned. “What do I look like to you?” he shook his head in annoyance. “No. Forget it. I’m tired of this game. I’ll just wish him a happy bir

As he was driving home alone, Benjamin received a voice message from Alfred in the new modern mobile he had just sent through a drone.“Master, how long will you keep trying to be what your wife wants you to be? Why don’t you show your real worth to her? What are you afraid of? Getting rejected for who you are? So what if she runs away after knowing who you are? That only means she was never yours to begin with. If you want my honest opinion, I was elated when I heard you found your love. While she may not be crooked like her mother, I think she’s still too selfish for her own good. I’m sorry, but I won’t be sending a drone for the third time. If you want to gift someone, do it with your own hands.”Benjamin bit his lower lip. “He sounds disappointed. He must be feeling quite angry at me now. Showing my real worth wouldn’t take a minute, but I want her to love me when I’m at my lowest and weakest, Alfred. Why can’t you understand that?”He pressed the accelerator and drove much faster.

After a long time, everyone in the Sterling family was present again at the dining table during dinner.The maids Kathy, Delle, Ashley, and Amber were all serving. All of them subtly showered their love on Jacob, taking turns, to put food on his plate. Naturally, Jacob was in a good and positive mood.“Dad,” Shawn glanced at his father, “I heard from one of your friends that your two upcoming movies together have a budget of 650 million. Is that true?”The number 650 million shocked almost everyone at the table, except Selena and Benjamin.“Don’t you think it’s too risky?” Shawn said. “Putting all of your assets into just two films?”“Are you telling me how to produce films now?” Jacob chortled. “You don’t multiply your assets without taking risks.”Shawn didn’t say anything, but he didn’t look pleased.“My husband is just worried about the worst-case scenario, that’s all,” Elizabeth said and laughed all by herself, but when she glanced at her parents, they joined her as well.“Dad, wh
