CHAPTER 103

A few days later.

The time for the premiere of ‘El Man’, Jacob’s superhero movie, had come. A-list actors, producers and top professionals from the industry graced the event.

Jacob couldn’t watch the movie with his family because he had other things to take care of, but every other Sterling family member watched it together, and they loved it. After the movie ended, Selena was in tears. “This movie is going to rock the world,” Elizabeth told her husband. “You were worried for nothing, dear.”

“Well, it’s indeed a masterpiece,” Shawn opined. “Most superhero movies don’t keep the villain hiding for so long, and the twist at the end was too good.”

Lisa and Roshan were of the same opinion, but they had many more things to tell about the movie.

“The wait was worth it,” Roshan said. “When it releases, I’ll take all my friends. They are going to have a blast for sure!”

Lisa thought of Nate but then also thought she should move on. Veronica was eating ice cream because it was the favorite food item of the woman El Man fell in love with. “If I get a lover like El Man, how wonderful it would be, but I know such characters exist only in movies, and not in reality.” “When is the movie going to be released?” Nolan asked George. “In a couple of weeks. They are going to release a worldwide trailer tonight,” said George. “I can’t wait to watch it now that I know the plot.” He glanced at Rebecca who seemed like she was in her own world.

Most people would lean back to one of their bad habits during this situation, but Rebecca didn’t have any bad habits, except maybe she began to eat without worrying about maintaining her figure. George also tried joking with her, but she never smiled at his jokes. Maybe her guard against him was still too high. So, he tried the other route by going up to her and saying, “Don’t let

The divorce file he had given to Benjamin was torn by Benjamin by running his fingers on top of the files. He had called Benjamin and asked why he didn’t sign the papers, and Benjamin replied, “She’s my laughter. She’s my disaster. She’s my lady of love and woe. She’s my everything. My world won’t be complete without my wife in it, and I believe she feels the same way about me. If I run away from her when

and she entered one of the rooms. Soon, a taxi stopped at the lodge, and Benjamin got out. “Why this place?” he wondered and looked around. “If someone sees me here with her, they might get the wrong idea.” He went to the receptionist and asked, “Do you have a hooded jacket?” She looked at him from top to bottom. “This isn’t a store, mister.” “I know. Do you have it or not?” Her expression froze for a second. “Of course, I don’t have one.
