Emmanuel asked Alessandra when she emerged from

Benny’s residential area.

fact that she was rejected in order for him not to

resent his uncle.

Emmanuel had no illusions as to what kind of person

Benny was. Despite the latter’s wealth, he had never

fancied every time they dropped by Emmanuel’s home
