Ben stayed silent the whole way home, as though sadness had stolen his words. It was obvious that dread and sorrow had been growing inside him since the earlier incident.
"Brother, I understand if you can’t kill her. After all, you've been together for so long!"
Selena wheeled her head around, looking a t Ben who was in the backseat. She continued, "But, this is the last time you'll b e grieving. The next time we see her, you can't stop us from wanting to kill her. After all, this woman is too cunning. Not only did she cheat on you, but she also attempted to poison your brother-in-law!"
Ben remained silent for several seconds before he finally nodded. "Don't worry. Sis. I understand now. I was useless before, and too naive. I don't behave like a grown and mature man. I don’t even have a decent job! To her, I'm still a hopeless, unrecyclable piece of trash!"
His muttering halted at this moment. Then, a voice came out from his mouth again, " But, to kill her...I really can't do it! In the future, it'll be fine with me as long as you don't kill her in front of me. I believe I'll stand up again soon!"
"I'm really glad that you can think in this way!" Selena replied, her eyes teary.
Ben suddenly thought of something. "Oh, right. By the way, is Fane okay? How's his body?”
"Don’t get too preoccupied. If Fane didn't have the solution, he wouldn't have drank the drugged water."
Before this, Selena assumed that Fane's medical skills were just average, but right now it seemed that his skills were more than that. He was a miraculous doctor, but Selena was not sure if Fane possessed the medical knowledge for other illnesses and i f he could treat them.
The car stopped outside the villa. Ben flashed a bitter smile and hobbled into the house alone.
"Selena, what happened to Ben? He doesn't seem right to me. Where did you all go?" Fiona came out from the villa and questioned Selena, feeling uneasy.
“Sigh. Xena, this slutty woman. She cheated on Ben with Ivan. I truly didn't expect that Ivan's the man she's been seeing!”
A heavy sigh escaped from Selena's mouth. If it were someone else, they would have killed him on the spot. She never expected i t to be Ivan Taylor!
