Chapter 12 Why Are You Hiding There

"Then tell me, what do you want to eat, Bennie?" Daryl asked.

"I'll eat whatever you make!" Benjamin answered.

Daryl ruffled his hair gently. She took his hand and they went to the kitchen.

The kitchen was huge. She was about to cook when she heard the engine of a sports car.

Her heart jolted in her chest. She quickly wiped her hands clean and walked out.

Before she could step out, Benjamin ran towards her with his tiny legs and pulled her behind the door. "Mommy, Daddy is back! What should I do? What if he throws me out?" "That's not possible."

She rubbed his head gently to comfort him as they looked out from their hiding place.

The sudden arrival of Zack surprised the servants in the villa.

A heavy atmosphere covered the place in no time.

He emerged from the darkness and the lights in the room lit up his features. There, he stood majestically with his intimidating aura.

Daryl clenched her fist when she remembered the memory of that night. She inhaled deeply and held her breath.

It was her fault. She shouldn't have involved herself with him in the first place.

The butler walked up to him and took over his suit jacket. "Sir, you're back."

Zack looked around. He noticed that there was some change in the atmosphere at home.

He stopped in his tracks and asked, "Has Bennie come back?"

"Well..."
