CHAPTER 13

At 4:30, a Porsche and a motorcycle stopped at Rye’s Pizzas at the same time. Benjamin and Rebecca kept peering at each other through the glass shielding before them. She opened the door and stepped out for the first time in this place. “Were you working over
time?”
Benjamin took off his helmet and showered a smile. He didn’t even hear what she just said. He was just so happy she got out of her car. He jumped off the bike like he was full of energy. “Do you want me to show you around?”
“No.You know that I don’t like pizzas, or things that have anything to do with bread,” she said, sounding not so interested in having a prolonged discussion. “Y-Yeah. Then you’ll probably not like the smells inside. Just wait here. I’ll be out in two minutes.” He rushed into the nearest hut and came running out before two minutes passed. She was already sitting in the driver’s seat and waiting for him to get in. He stopped at the door outside the second front seat. “Not there,” she turned her back slightly. “In the back.” The back door opened. Benjamin’s shoulders slightly slumped before he got in and sat in a relaxed posture with his eyes closed.
Rebecca glanced through the mirror and saw that his legs were spread out. She could see the sharp curves of his legs, and oh, they were so inviting. She ended up stealing a couple more glances, and she quickly moved the mirror sideways a little so that she wouldn’t be able to see whatever that was up for view.
Even though she was not looking anymore, she gripped the steering wheel tightly as that image was still flashing in her mind. (Tch. How can he be so defenseless?) In these eight months, even the thought of tempting him never came to her mind, but now, she found herself being tempted by such a simple thing. It must be the work stress. She was tired and all, and so likely wanted something to ease her mind. Soon, she arrived home, but she didn’t get out. She knew Benjamin was probably still sitting in the same defenseless posture. She didn’t want to look back, either. As she got lost in conflicting thoughts, her forefinger kept tapping the steering wheel. She ended up unintentionally pressing the horn, and it caused Benjamin to wake up.
He rubbed his eyes, and it took him a few seconds to realize that he had fallen asleep in his wife’s car. This never happened before. How could he do such a senseless thing? She didn’t take it the wrong way, did she? He tried to get a peek at her face, but the mirror was facing the other way.

“Ahem,” he cleared his throat. “You can get out, Rebecca. I’ll park the car.”
“No. You get out. I’ll do the parking today.”
“What?” he was greatly surprised by her response. (Is she helping because I was hit hard by the Gold-digger in the morning?) He got out as a happy man.
Rebecca drove the car to the parking lot. Anous who had been sitting in the shade came running and shouting out loud, “You brought the pizza, didn’t you, bitch? Otherwise, I’ll definitely call your little pizza hut tomorrow, you understand?” he slammed his palm on the door, but by the time he realized who was sitting in the driver’s seat, it was already too late. Rebecca got out of the car and slapped him hard.
He covered his cheek with his hand and just stood there as she walked away. (Why is this crazy daughter parking the car today? Luckily, I didn’t speak too much, or I may have suffered more!
Meanwhile, when Rebecca entered the villa, she was in for a surprise. Elizabeth was making a scene in the hall, asking Shawn to come with her to her family. Shawn not only refused, but also said that the children would stay with him.
Elizabeth walked out alone, not counting her three spinner suitcases, of course.
“Dad, don’t let Mom go,”Lisa pleaded to her father. “You think I want her to go?” Shawn yelled at Lisa. “I told her to stay, but she’s leaving with three suitcases full of jewelry instead of staying here with me and her children. That’s who your mother is. She’ll probably go on a cruise trip now with her family. If you want, you can also go with her.”
Shawn was still in his office uniform. He couldn’t even work properly because Elizabeth kept calling him and his office all the time.
Selena got off the couch and tried to comfort her granddaughter. “Knowing your mom, she’s gonna return in a few months once the money runs out, so don’t worry too much, Lisa.”
