CHAPTER 100'

“Benjamin!” Rebecca rushed to him, ignoring the pain in her ankle. Shawn cut her off. “Hold it, Rebecca.” “Brother, move!” she roared and tried to get past him, but he grabbed her hand and forcibly pulled her away. “Listen to me first, and then you are going to beat your husband yourself,” Shawn stated. “What nonsense are you talking about?” Rebecca’s eyes were still on Benjamin who was on the ground. “How could you beat him like that? Are you even human?” Tears escaped her eyes. “It isn’t just your brother who hit him,” Jacob said. “I did, too.” Rebecca’s face froze. “Your worthless husband is having an affair with the chief justice’s daughter,” Jacob said. “W-What are you talking about?” Rebecca didn’t believe it. “The chief justice’s daughter died unfortunately,” Jacob continued speaking in an annoyed tone. “Or I would have brought her here to prove it. Still, her father’s words are more than enough. There’s no reason for the chief justice to lie!” “Don’t listen to them, Rebecca, ” Benjamin said through the pain as blood dripped from his chin. “I don’t even know about the girl they’re talking about.”

“B-Benjamin…” Rebecca’s gut twisted seeing him in such a pathetic situation. She tried to get to him, but her brother didn’t let her.

“Don’t fall for his trap, Rebecca,” Shawn warned her, squeezing her wrist with brute force so that his point would get across to her better. “It’s better for everyone in this villa if he just disappears from our lives.”

“Yes, Aunt. Dad is right,” Lisa stepped forth and said. “I think Uncle Benjamin had a crush on me. I saw him following me a few times.” Her words shocked everyone as they thought this came out of nowhere. Lisa, however, stood her ground. “I think he isn’t innocent.” After losing her boyfriend, she didn’t know where she should divert her frustration, and now she had Benjamin to divert all her anger toward. In a way, he was responsible for her losing Nate, she thought.

“What the hell?” Shawn’s blood boiled. “You even went after my daughter?” He pushed Rebecca aside and attacked Benjamin.
