CHAPTER 89

Sitting on Rebecca’s bed, Jacob looked quite frustrated. For one thing, his wife was sitting next to him and resting her head on his shoulders. He didn’t want to tell her to get up, but at the same time, he had more important things to do. Dealing with Johnny’s body is just a minor part of that.

However, what angered him more was seeing his daughter designing a suit right in front of his eyes. “Is this the time to be planning designs?” “The request came from my old friend Evelyn. She wants to surprise her boss, so I need to finish this as fast as possible.” “To her boss? Who the hell is her boss? Some roadside romeo?”

“CEO Adam of Conreid Lore.”

Jacob went silent for a little while. “You can carry on, but do something about your mother. She’s totally out.”

“Yeah, so why don’t you just put her down on the bed?”

“I’m afraid she’ll wake up if I move. You come and deal with her.” Rebecca sighed and did what Jacob asked of her and succeeded. Jacob didn’t wait another second and slipped out of the room, sweating profusely for many reasons.

When Jacob was walking out of the villa, he noticed Anous outside, standing, requesting with his eyes to take him back into the job. It was Shawn who gave him the job in the first place, so Jacob simply told him to ask Shawn. He could have just said ‘you can come to work’, but he didn’t want any unnecessary headache from his wife.

I got so angry that I wanted to kill you, but then you were also looking at other women the same way, so I thought you were just blinded by lust. Still, I didn’t think you’d attack Rebecca.

I should have checked her background before proceeding, but she saw something she shouldn’t have, so…” he kneeled and lowered his head. “I’m not giving excuses. I know I deserve punishment.” He raised the dagger in his hand, suggesting that Benjamin should just behead him. Benjamin, however, started walking. “Go back home.” Shadow pursed his lips in a bit of frustration. “Why, Lord? If it was the past you, you would have punished me severely. What has changed now?” Benjamin kept walking without answering. After he entered his car, he grabbed the wheel but didn’t start the engine. “Nothing changed, Shadow. I’m still the same.
