Perfect Marriage with My Substitute Wife

Chapter 10

Benjamin rang the doorbell after he finished his call.

Kathleen was standing inside when the door opened.

She had just finished her shower, and her face was still pale.

“I bought some pizza.” Benjamin did not know how to react when he saw Kathleen’s expression.

They felt awkward meeting each other because they had experienced the same trauma.

“Thank you.” Kathleen took a step back and allowed Benjamin to enter.

Benjamin walked to the table and put down the pizza in his hand. “It’s still hot. Eat up.”

“Gemma went to work the night shift.” Kathleen pursed her lips. “I didn’t expect her to become a nurse. She’s amazing.”

Benjamin froze for a moment. “Nothing is amazing about it. There are many nurses out there who are better than her.”

Kathleen shook her head. “She’s really amazing, especially after that matter.”

“Have you been doing well?” Benjamin asked in a hoarse voice.

“Yes.” Kathleen took her seat.

Benjamin took a cigarette box out of his pocket.

Kathleen hesitated before saying, “Benjamin, can you not smoke in the house?”

“I’m sorry.” Benjamin felt awkward. He did that because he was too nervous.

Kathleen ate the pizza slowly. “Thank you for saving me.”

“Don’t go out so late next time.” Benjamin’s heart ached for her. “Even if you have an emergency, find someone to accompany you. Don’t go out alone at night.”

“Okay.” Kathleen nodded.

“I called a man named Tyson, but I didn’t tell him you’re here. I wanted to ask you first.” Benjamin looked at her. “Should I ask him to come here?”

Kathleen shook her head. “It’s okay. It’s bright outside. I can go home alone.”

“All right.” Benjamin nodded as he sized Kathleen up.

He had many words to say, but he held himself back.
