Chapter 148

Meanwhile, Thomas kept complaining tearfully. Ben patiently listened to him at first.

Ten minutes later, Ben began to be expressionless.

Twenty minutes later, he put his phone aside and directly turned off the receiver and microphone.

“What’s wrong with Thomas?” Susan asked.

Frowning, Ben replied, “God knows. He just kept complaining about why Monica became like this and lied to him. I asked him what happened, but he refused to tell me and just repeated the two questions.”

A glimmer came into Susan’s eyes.

She got a rough idea of why Thomas kept saying that.

Nevertheless, a few hours ago, Thomas formally apologized to her and begged her to keep what Monica had done a secret.

Seeing his pitiful look, Susan agreed.

Thus, Susan didn’t tell Ben what Monica had done and told the crew to keep it a secret.

At this moment, Susan didn’t intend to tell Ben about this, but she couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Ben, do you know why Thomas is so obsessed with Monica?”

She was confused as to why Thomas, such a normal person, would lose his mind when it came to Monica’s affairs.

Could Monica really be a smokescreen?

At the thought of this, Susan shivered and quickly shook her head, thinking that she had really been misled by Rose!

That was a horrible idea!

“There’s a story between them,” Ben said, raising his brows.

“Tell me about it,” Susan said curiously.

Ben said, “When Thomas was a child, he once went to visit his relatives in the north where there was a rare heavy snow. He, who suffered from snow blindness, had so blurred vision that he could barely see things although he tried very hard. At that time, he was unaware that he was just suffering from snow blindness, thinking that he was completely blind, so he was panic–stricken.”

“And then?” Susan asked as she took out a box of popcorn.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to lose weight?” Ben asked casually.

Susan squinted and said, “You really think I’m overweight?”

Ben composedly changed the topic, “However, Thomas has a strong sense of self–esteem since he was a child, and he didn’t want to disturb his relatives. Despite his blurred vision, he still pretended to be normal and acted as usual every day. Therefore, no one noticed that his vision had become very blurred.

“Once his cousin offered to take him out, he agreed despite his poor vision. Unexpectedly, he got lost on the way. At this time, in his own words, an angelic girl appeared in front of him. She could tell that he was in a predicament, and helped him call the police. But because he was new to the city and did not know his relatives‘ specific address, it would take the police some time to find his relatives. The girl took him back to her home.”

Susan, whose eyes lit up after she ate a popcorn, suggested, “Can you polish the story a little? You tell it in a simple, straightforward way! It sounds boring.”

Ben replied, “Uh, that’s a little difficult.”

“Forget it, forget it. Just continue,” Susan said, deciding to lower her standards a little.

Ben continued with an expressionless face, “I don’t know what exactly happened. In short, he stayed at the girl’s home for two days and fell for her for no reason.”

“There’s a reason for that,” Susan disagreed with his point, “Thomas, who was almost blind back then, regarded the girl as the only light in his life.”

Ben said, “Well. Anyway, that’s the whole story.”

Susan continued eating her popcorn.

Ben looked at her, while she also looked at him.
