CHAPTER 67

On the first day after Benjamin quit the job, he did a lot of things that made him feel happy more than proud. Firstly, he had made a carrot pudding, one good enough to make his wife compliment him for the first time. And he expressed his love for her not just through words but also by focusing on her little needs and wants.

At the end of the day, Rebecca felt like she really was treated like a queen. But it was at night, something much more memorable happened for her. She was tying up a bandage around her ankle to keep it firm, and she was doing it clumsily. Benjamin took it upon himself and tied a beautiful-looking knot that almost impressed her. But that wasn’t all. He suggested she could also add knots to her designs to give them a unique feel, and he showed her very many wonderful designs with a rope and a scarf. Thanks to him, Rebecca learned a lot in one night. She was a bit overwhelmed even, so she asked him to help her practice these knots for a few days, until her brain got used to making them. The only troubling situation Benjamin encountered was at the dining table at night. Elizabeth was around, and she made sure the new maid put minced meat pieces on Rebecca’s plate whereas only bones on Benjamin’s plate. Elizabeth wanted to ask Benjamin why he didn’t show up at job, but she didn’t want Rebecca to know she began working at Rye’s Pizzas which she used to mock all the time, calling it not even a job. Even though Benjamin didn’t show up, Elizabeth vented her anger on the staff by firing three people for making the slightest mistakes that ticked her off. Still and all, the worker who dropped a tray of sauce bottles wasn’t among them. Even though Benjamin was being poorly treated by Elizabeth, Rebecca couldn’t stand up for him. She had never been an emotional support for him, and she was still not ready to show public support for him in the Sterling villa, and she felt bad about it. Nevertheless, Rebecca slept peacefully that night, thanks to all the good memories she made that day.

Benjamin couldn’t control himself from planting a little kiss on her cheek after she slept. And then he went to his bed and slept.

The next morning.

Benjamin woke up early as usual. He didn’t go to the rooftop first and instead went to the garden and brought a few flowers and put them next to Rebecca’s bed, hoping she’d see them and feel pleasant right after waking up. He then went upstairs to the rooftop to do his usual morning routine, and there were two maids scissoring themselves by the terrace, shocking him. The seed packet in his hands fell.

The noise seemingly startled the maids, and they hurriedly covered themselves and ran downstairs.
