Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver

Chapter 8

Wilbur frowned. “Come on. I’m not the bad guy here.”

“You’re as bad as one can get! I know what you’re up to!” The girl cried out in rage.

Wilbur sighed, and Benjamin spoke up at that moment, “Leave us alone.”

The girl was indignant but ended up stomping out while holding back her tears.

Benjamin turned to look at Wilbur. “That’s my granddaughter, Susie. She’s still young. Please don’t mind her.”

“That’s alright. Why do you have so much trust in me, Mister Grayson?” Wilbur asked.

Benjamin smiled. “I’m in my seventies, and I’ve seen a lot. There is a lot left unknown in the world out there, and I know I’m too old to find out what they are. However, I do believe that there are things I don’t know of. More importantly, anyone dying would want a chance to live on. I’m no exception.”

“That’s very honest of you. Let’s begin, then,” Wilbur said with a smile.

Benjamin smiled, stripping off his shirt to reveal a torso covered in scars.

There were more than ten scars from knife wounds alone and a few more from bullets. There wasn’t a single part of his body that was intact. It was a terrifying sight.

Wilbur sighed and remarked, “You’ve worked really hard.”

“Oh, it’s nothing. I was just making a living as a poor man too. I’m not as great as that kid makes me out to be,” Benjamin said nonchalantly.

Wilbur smiled. He placed a palm onto Benjamin’s back and slowly channeled a wave of spirit energy into his body.

Wilbur then guided the spirit energy around Benjamin’s body carefully. “Remember this energy path and do the same in the future.”

Benjamin nodded, and Wilbur continued.
