Benjamin followed Zoren around with observant eyes. Even on their way to the company, he couldn't help but glance at the backseat, just to see his boss staring out the window. "Is he acting strange, or am I?'Benjamin wondered, unsure if he was just giving himself something

Last night was truly a scary experience; Benjamin couldn't even sleep properly. "Speaking of last night..." Zoren hummed, his eyes on Benjamin. "... who took care of me last

why do you always question me like this?" Benjamin frowned. "You know I only have your best interest in mind. That's the reason behind my actions. No matter how unlikeable Miss Penelope is, she is still a strong supporter on our side right now." "You are right." Zoren nodded again.
