Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 21

I asked directly: "Did you know I was there?" was there anything he didn't know?

Benjamin laughed and said, "You were like a little mouse who has stolen a whole wheel of cheese. You thought you were leaving without anyone noticing but the whole bar could hear you coming."

He teased me, and I blushed: "It was because you and Sean blocked the whole corridor!"

Benjamin smiled faintly, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and said indifferently: "I'm not blaming you for listening to us."

He just asked me what I wanted to know, and I thought about it and said: "Benjamin, I just want to know why you want to marry me on a whim, and why you would know immediately if anything happens to me?"

He appeared just right in time for several times.

And he got me out of whatever predicament I was in.

"Why?"

Benjamin ignited the cigarette with a dark black lighter. He took a sip and said: "Emma, I denied what my family gave me and worked alone for many years. I have never conceded or lost no matter how hard it was, so I plan to stay the same with my marriage."

I suddenly remembered Victoria, the woman Sean mentioned.

She was a celebrity who made Benjamin's parents satisfied, so did he want to use me to resist the family arrangement?

But was Benjamin such an irrational man?

What was in his head?

I opened my mouth and asked, "Are you trying to piss off your parents by marrying me?"

"Pissing off my parents?" Benjamin was surprised, looked at me, shook his head and said, "Did you think that's what I thought of marriage?"

I asked: "Then what do you mean?"

Benjamin turned his head and explained lightly: "I need to marry someone who I can get along with and at least doesn't annoy me when I look at her. You basically fit all the qualifications."

"Do you think we get along?" I asked.

Benjamin smoked half of the cigarette in his hand. He put it out and said, "If you do as I tell you, we will get along."

I still couldn't figure him out.

I persuaded: "In fact, Sean is right. If you marry me, your friends would all talk behind your back! They will use unbearable words to blame you and secretly humiliate you."

Benjamin said coldly: "This is my concern."

He then said: "I will deal with Steve as soon as possible. We will get married tomorrow morning. When it comes to my things, just don't ask, don't tell. If___If you meet someone you like, tell me and I will let you go."

His requirements...

After all, Benjamin needed a marriage.

But this marriage could not restrict him, so he chose me.

I suddenly understood his purpose for getting me married.

The car was serene again, I turned my head and looked at the darkness outside the window, as dark as my heart, but I had no choice.

Long before, I agreed to be his woman.

So whatever he wanted to do now, I can't refuse.

After a long time, I bit my lip to hide the sadness in my heart and said to the indifferent man beside me: "And you can do the same if you meet someone you like."

He turned his eyes and looked at me, I thought he didn't believe it, and added: "Don't worry, I won't pester you."

"Yeah." Benjamin stretched out his hand and rubbed my head, the corners of his lips curled up, and finally smiled and said, "This is my good girl, fortune."

Listening to him was what he thought was good.

I opened the door in silence and got out, and then Benjamin got out too. He followed me into the elevator.

Benjamin seemed to be drunk. He leaned against the elevator. I saw his reddish cheeks and asked casually, "Are you all right?"

"Why wouldn't I be?"

Benjamin hooked his fingers at me but I stood there hesitating. So he simply reached out and grabbed me.

My body slammed into his arms, and Benjamin held me tightly with his arms, and put his head on my shoulders, his voice was ambiguous: "I haven't seen you in a long time, I miss you very much."

What? Did he know who I was?

I stretched out my hand and pushed his chest, Benjamin's head rubbed my cheek, shamelessly like a child.

I was shocked. It happened that the elevator door opened at this time. All I could do was to help him out of the elevator. I frowned slightly and looked at the door lock: "Benjamin, what is your password?"

Benjamin looked up at me and then at the door lock. He directly reached out to use his fingerprints to unlock the door, "The password is four fives."

Four fives.

I remembered that at the bar just now, someone called him Penta.

I helped Benjamin in and put him on the sofa in the living room, thinking of pouring him a cup of hot water to moisturize his throat.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, my wrist was grabbed and pulled vigorously, and I subconsciously fell on Benjamin's body.

D*mn! My body hadn't recovered yet and the fall on his body was so painful that I cried.

Benjamin saw me crying, and quickly picked up the remote control on the table to turn on the lights in the room, and wiped my tears helplessly, but his voice calmly asked, "Why are you crying? What's wrong?"

It might be that the recent grievances have been too much, it might be that the sadness in my heart was too much, and I couldn't hold back the tears. I suddenly thought of Steve, the man I had loved for several years.

It was like a joke that caused complete changes in my life. I saw Benjamin's caring look and suddenly smiled: "It's okay. It's just that my body hadn't recovered yet. The fall hurt a little bit."

Benjamin's expression turned gloomy in an instant, he eased his grip on me and smiled cruelly: "Are you a child? Only children cry because of pain. Apply some ointment and go to sleep."

After speaking, Benjamin took the lead to get up and went back to his bedroom. I sat on the sofa for a long time, and returned to the room after the pain disappeared.
