CHAPTER 124

Selena allowed a journalist and critic to enter the villa to give an interview. While she talked about her health and her current and future film projects, she also said, “Sterling family is doing great. Now that my daughter’s bitter husband is gone, our villa is much more peaceful

now.”

“Can you tell me a bit more about this son-in-law?” the journalist asked.

“There’s nothing to tell. He’s always ill-disposed and does not like our family. We couldn’t bear him. My daughter especially…” she wiped her non-existent tear from her eyebrow.” She’s been through hell and is still recovering.

It’s disgusting.” She was still so upset she was shaking in her bed from all the anger and frustration trying to take over her senses. “I hope Benjamin didn’t read this.” And so, she ended up calling Benjamin eventually. She knew it was working hours, so she wasn’t sure if he’d pick her call or not, but he answered. “Hey,” he said just that one word. There was neither sadness nor joy in his voice. She couldn’t decipher anything just yet. “Uh…” she hesitantly spoke. “How are you doing? I mean, what are you doing?” “On my way to deliver pizzas. Why?” “N-Nothing. I just wanted to know
