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 scary how the entire family can be thrown into chaos with the arrival of just one bad person.”

“Can you tell us his name?

“Trashmi-… Ahem, I mean, Benjamin… something. He’s short and full of shortcomings. He doesn’t comb his hair, doesn’t shave his beard. Heck, he doesn’t even get out of bed until he gets tea delivered to him. He gets all his work done by my daughter and the maids. I still can’t believe how my daughter married such a moronic man in the first place. He must have tricked her, I’m sure.”

“So I believe your daughter has gotten divorce?” “All I can say is that she’s dating someone else. Someone who’s infinitely more suited to be with her.”

“Let’s give them the space. They’ll go public when they feel comfortable.” Pretty soon, the interview was over. She told the journalist that the news should come

then came to know that her mother was behind all this. She wanted to talk with her mother, but given that Selena had suffered a heart attack not long ago, Rebecca could only swallow her frustration. She didn’t want to argue with her mother and raise her blood pressure. “I will talk with her about this one day.” She told herself. “How can she lie so much? 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 how
