Noticing him feeling gloomy, Margot flashed a playful smile at him. "Take your time to consider. I'm good at my job. I will definitely take good care of you. Of course, you can cover my meals if you don't want to pay a wage.""Do you think I'm short of money?" Benjamin couldn't help but retort.A mischievous glint flickered in Margot's eyes. "So, does that mean you agree? Then just pay me a salary according to the market rate."Benjamin was speechless. He cursed himself for his carelessness. He had actually fallen into this young girl's trap.Narrowing his eyes, Benjamin observed her. She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. Why was she so mature?She even knew how to play tricks. She didn't seem like she was seventeen or eighteen at all.Margot walked over and helped him up. "Let's have something to eat first, and then you can rest."Benjamin didn't resist either. After all, she was now his caretaker.The more he thought about it, the more exasperated he became.Marg

Margot quickly returned with two lunchboxes in her hands. She placed them on the table and helped Benjamin to his feet. Immediately afterward, she set up the small table.Benjamin said, "I need to use the bathroom.""Sure, go ahead."Margot fiddled with the containers.Benjamin furrowed his brows, "I'm feeling dizzy and weak."Margot fell silent for a while, then helped him up from the bed.Benjamin draped his arm over her shoulder, and his entire weight pressed onto her.Margot found it a bit strenuous. She was really quite frail now.Benjamin complained, "You're too thin. Your bones are poking into me."Margot remained silent.After entering the bathroom, she helped him onto the toilet seat and left.However, Benjamin's voice echoed from the bathroom within just a few minutes."I'm done."Margot furrowed her brows slightly, but a smile tugged at her lips. "Mr. Inkling, have you managed to put your pants on properly? It wouldn't be appropriate if I walked in just like thi

Margot gave him a puzzled look. "What are you doing?"She thought he needed to go to the bathroom or get up from the bed. To her surprise, as soon as she approached, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her closer to him. They were now only inches apart.Margot was shocked and looked at him curiously. Her grin was sly. "Mr. Inkling?"Benjamin stared into Margot's bright eyes and felt his heart stir.His mischievous thoughts disappeared in an instant, and he cleared his throat. He frowned. "Why are you so close to me?"Margot was taken aback. Wasn't he the one who pulled her in?Benjamin released her wrist and said awkwardly, "Go away." Margot suddenly reached out and touched his forehead. "You're not running a fever. Why are you acting so weird?"Benjamin fell silent.However, instead of moving away, Margot stayed in the same position. She tilted her head at him. Upon seeing the faint blush painting his paled cheeks, her smile deepened."What were you planning to do?" Margot te

It felt natural like it was meant to be. Benjamin's brows furrowed until Margot placed the final plate on the table. She stood by the window with a smile on her face. "Enjoy your meal."Benjamin didn't say anything. He silently picked up his spoon and started eating. The table was filled with dishes meant to nourish the body, yet they tasted surprisingly good. His eyes lit up after the first taste of the soup.He glanced at her and wondered how a skinny girl like her managed to cook so well. It was obvious she was malnourished. And she lived in an orphanage as well. How did she cultivate her cooking skills?Benjamin was curious. "What are you looking at?" Margot sensed his gaze and asked, confused.Benjamin asked, "Didn't you grow up in an orphanage? Are you allowed to cook there?""Yes," Margot lied through her teeth. "Well? Isn't my cooking delicious?"In her previous life, after leaving the orphanage, she had worked hard and always dined out, which eventually led to gast

Margot hissed coldly. The bartender didn't dare question her further and immediately led her away. Margot snorted and followed along. She adopted an arrogant attitude, making herself appear confident. She didn't want to be suspected or looked down upon by the people here. She knew that her current appearance lacked credibility. But she couldn't let things unfold according to the previous timeline. If she did, it would be too late to change anything.Benjamin was a year older than her and was still in college. He was in the same course as Kayla. Because Kayla had taken Benjamin to the hospital in her previous life, they had interacted and soon became a couple. Later, Kayla went abroad. But her plane crashed, and she ended up in Nammu Bay.There were too many things to consider.Margot had to take things slow. She needed to get acquainted with Benjamin before he returned to school. That way, he wouldn't be able to interact with Kayla.She followed the bartender through a narr
