I squinted at Benjamin, and then put the ointment back on the dresser. He asked in a slightly caring tone: "Is your injury better?"
"Well, it's okay, don't worry."
I bypassed him and crawled onto the bed, but Benjamin suddenly grabbed my ankle and pulled me to his side. I struggled subconsciously, but he held me in his arms and smiled brightly, and said: "Hush, easy."
I glared at him, palms pushing his shoulders, Benjamin raised his lips and reminded me: "Don't move around in a man's arms, especially a man who has been abstinent for many days. I can make sure what will happen if you don't cooperate!"
"You!"
"Mrs. Dunn, there's a fire burning at my lower body." He rubbed his fingers between my collarbone, and said quietly, "Just let me hold you for a while."
Benjamin put me in his arms and lay on my bed. He quickly fell asleep, but I was too nervous to even breathe.
The lights in the room were blurred, and I stared at his handsome face for a long time, until late at night I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
I woke up in his arms early in the morning. When I opened my eyes, he was still asleep soundly.
Benjamin’s eyelashes were thick and long, and his eyebrows were as if they were painted on his forehead. I stretched out my hand and placed it on his face. Just as I was about to take my hand back, a big palm grasped me.
Benjamin held my palm and rubbed his face. My heart beat and heard his low voice say: "Good morning, Mrs. Dunn."
Good morning, Mrs. Dunn.
It made my heart beat uncontrollably.
I blushed and took my hand from his hand to get up.
Benjamin stretched out a hand from behind and put his arm around my waist. He put his head on my shoulder and asked, "You are going to work?"
Recently, he always liked to do ambiguous movements.
I nodded, Benjamin let go and said, "I will go to the company later, and I will pass by the police station. I will take you there."
After saying that, he got up and went back to his room.
I went into the bathroom and patted myself on the face with cold water. I couldn't figure out what Benjamin thought.
If we were just a deal, he was too close.
If it were love, we were too distant.
He reminded me before.
He told me to know my place.
Finally, Benjamin captured my heart. My heart was completely chaotic, and he was calm and quiet in his own world, watching with cold eyes.
When I put on a light make-up and put on clothes, Benjamin also changed a set of clothes and waited for me in the living room.
He wore a pure black woolen coat, inside was a white loose sweater. The black and white colors formed an impact.
It made him look exceptionally tall and handsome.
Benjamin was a man who paid most attention to fashion.
When he saw me coming out, he reached out and held my palm, and carefully said: "I work not far from the police station. I will go to you for lunch at noon. If there is any dangerous task, remember to call me. Also, be sure to let Bob follow you."
He really regarded Bob as my bodyguard.
I smiled and said, "Bob and I are in the internal service department. We can only stay in the police station for a while. Don't worry about me."
"Do you think I want that?" Benjamin flicked my forehead lightly with his fingers half bent, mockingly said: "You've really overestimated your IQ and that's why you get bullied all the time."
"You have said this many times."
Benjamin frowned: "So you think I talk too much?"
His face suddenly became cold, I shook my head but Benjamin left me and went out first.
I hurriedly followed him to the garage. After I left the neighborhood, I suddenly remembered that Benjamin was going to work in the company.
He had only been in this city for a week, and I had been with him every day. In my memory, this was the first day that he went to work.
I turned my head to look at him and asked curiously, "Where do you work?"
"Majesty Corporation."
I frowned and said, "Steve also works there."
I suddenly remembered that Steve called the day before yesterday and complained that his life and work had become a mess.
Had Benjamin already taken his move on him?
"Steve?" Benjamin thought for a long time before saying: "It's your ex-husband, right? I'm not familiar with his name."
I tentatively asked: "Did you do anything to him?"
Benjamin said indifferently: "I originally wanted to solve your ex-husband cleanly, but suddenly felt that this would slowly torture him, and it was interesting to see how he struggle, thinking that he might still find a way out."
He kept emphasizing the word "ex-husband".
He seemed to be really unfamiliar with Steve's name.
But I knew that was impossible to be the case. He just didn't want to mention his name at all.
And I knew he wanted to destroy Steve in every possible way.
Only men with strong self- confidence had this ability.
And Steve didn't tell me that Benjamin worked in his company. He defended the last shred of his self-esteem as a man in front of me.
I was curious and asked: "What did you do to him?"
"What? Feeling sorry for him?" Benjamin's tone suddenly became indifferent and said: "Majesty Corporation hired me with a high salary. They came to beg me, so what I do is my freedom. And all I did was to let your ex-husband be hit frequently in his career, making him feel bad and miserable every day, and..."
