Chapter 595

Benjamin had just swallowed his words when Elysia's voice echoed through the house, "Dr. Benjamin?"

Tarquin shot him a look that screamed 'speak up' without uttering a single word.

Benjamin rolled his eyes, exasperated. What was this, some kind of weird game?

He licked his lips and replied to Elysia, "Uh... Ms. Thorne, I'm here."

Hearing Benjamin's voice confirmed to Elysia that Tarquin wasn't lying.

"Give me a sec, I'll just change and be right out."

"Alright."

"Your part's done. Go get some sleep. And remember what I said, steer clear of her at night! If you absolutely must see her, come to me first! You're old enough to know better!"

With that, Tarquin slammed the door shut, leaving Benjamin dazed and alone in the hallway.

A few minutes later, the bedroom door finally opened again.
