CHAPTER 45

When Selena returned home, Lisa and Roshan made a mountain out of the molehill regarding what Benjamin had done to them. They also repeatedly told Veronica and the maids, and they waited till midnight and told Shawn when he came home. And they took Shawn to Rebecca’s

room.

“Open the door,” Shawn knocked and said a few times, but there was no response “He locked the door after having dinner,” Lisa said. “He didn’t open it when Grandma told him to!”

“What?” Shawn grew angry. “Since when did he grow so arrogant?” he banged the door harder with his hand. Roshan also joined his father and banged the door. The maids and the butlers were watching silently from the side. “Rebecca? What are you doing? At least say something. Do you want me to break the door or what?”

To their shock, their grandparents had also locked their door, and their snoring could be heard from outside. Lisa and Roshan could only walk back to their rooms, wearing disappointed expressions.

The next morning.

Lisa asked Shawn to buy a bugatti for her, but he told her to first get the first rank in the class. Roshan chuckled as Lisa embarrassed herself. Kathy brought the leftover breakfast to Devon who had been living in his own world since the past few days. Some butlers wondered if they should send him to the mental hospital, but nobody acted before taking Jacob’s permission. Jacob hadn’t been to the villa in the past three days, so they could only wait. Meanwhile, Oliver
