Rebecca came to her office that morning and was working, but something had been making her think.She was not able to work properly, and so she took a little break and called Jane’s number.Jane didn’t answer.“Tsk, it looks like she hasn't woken up yet,” Rebecca thought. “It’s ten o’clock, though. She probably slept around four or five in the morning after getting what she wanted. This woman thinks she’s living her life but is just letting guys run through her. She’s obsessed with guys so much that she even went outside to have fun. She’s become a sex addict now. I feel bad for her.”She went and sat back at her desk.About two hours later, Jane called her back.“Did you just wake up right now?” Rebecca asked. “Please tell me you’re not in someone’s bed right now.”“Haha, you know how it is,” Jane laughed. “Yesterday, I met a guy who works at a hedge fund. I thought he’d be boring, but he’s very good with his math and joking skills. He paid for my drinks, and I went home with him to

In the evening.Rebecca arrived at Rye’s Pizzas.And he saw the fat woman talking with Benjamin outside the store. “What was her name again? Leyla or something?” Rebecca frowned. “She said she’s not interested, but look at what she’s doing now…” she gripped tightly onto the steering wheel. She wanted to get out and roast that woman right there in front of Benjamin, but she sat in the car and waited to see how long they’d keep talking.“Diet is indeed important, but your breathing also matters a lot,” Benjamin was talking with Leyla. “I’ve noticed that you’re breathing more through your mouth. That’s not a good thing to do. Our noses are built to pressurize, heat up, moisten, and filter the air, so that we end up absorbing a lot of oxygen out of what we breathe. But if you breathe through your mouth, it will only put a lot of stress on your body. I think that’s why your body is breaking down instead of recovering.”“Nose breathing, huh…” Leyla looked very surprised. “I have never thou

After coming home, Rebecca did not say a word to Benjamin for hours.Benjamin had bought an extra pizza home, not including the ones he bought for Lisa and Roshan. He was hoping to share that third pizza with Rebecca, but when he asked her if she’d eat it, she said, “Give it to Leyla. She’ll appreciate it a lot more than I do.”No matter what Benjamin tried to do, Rebecca kept piercing his mind and squeezing his heart with her ever so sharp words. Even arrows and bullets wouldn’t hurt someone so deeply.That night was like a living nightmare to Benjamin. He really experienced the word ‘miserable,’ and he was not able to sleep, either.In the middle of the night, he came out to the balcony to get some fresh air.“I’m telling her the truth, but she’s not listening. If the truth doesn’t work, then what can I do?” he shook his head. “Her ego is blinding her from seeing the truth. She’s mistaking what I did for something else. I just hope that she’ll somehow forget this incident, or I have

The next morning.Benjamin prepared breakfast for everyone once again, and the maids were looking as if they were having mixed feelings about this. On one hand, they loved the dishes he made, but on the other hand, he was making them look like they didn’t know how to cook.Delle was decent, but Amber and Kathy were nowhere near, so they were the ones who were not hiding their disappointment with their eyes.Benjamin tried to put an egg on Rebecca’s plate.“No,” she quickly said.“Why?” he asked.“She doesn’t need to explain herself to you,” Selena intervened. “If she says no, it stays a no. Get used to that. The faster the better.”Benjamin didn’t say anything.“Mom, I met a guy the other day,” Veronica openly told her mother. “He seems like he’s very into me, and he wants to give me a car. Is that a good thing?”“How long have you known him?” Selena asked.“About ten days?” Veronica said. “I only met him twice though.”“Only ten days, and he wants to give you a car? That’s a red flag

Rebecca was driving, with Benjamin sitting in the back. He was reading the newspaper, and she was thinking about what he said at the dining table.“Being a green flag, huh…” she thought. “If I look at the way he lived after coming here, he did what was asked of him. He cooked, massaged, cleaned the floor and the toilet, polished the shoes, cleaned the dishes, and did almost all the things that were asked of him. He did not show much resistance. I wouldn’t say he took the pressure like a sponge, but he was not far from it, either. Does all this make him a green flag? If he were to reject them and stand up for himself, is that a good thing or a bad thing?”She thought about it for a while.And then she ended up asking him out of curiosity, “What exactly is a green flag? Can you give me a simpler explanation?”Benjamin shrugged his shoulders. “I just told Veronica what I believed on the spot. I didn’t ever think about green flag or red flag until today.”“Then… is what you said not gen

What exactly did Rebecca want?If she wanted strong family bonding, then she should be putting more effort than now. This was what Benjamin believed.How could a family be strong when there were weak links in it?Benjamin considered himself a weak link because he felt weak when he was with the Sterling family members. After all, Jacob, Shawn, and Louis would never talk with him and would even avoid talking with him. He did not want to talk with Louis, but he wanted to talk with Jacob and Shawn.However, it was only Nolan who talked with him. But Nolan did that to get Benjamin to do all kinds of work for him.Because Rebecca said she was already doing things the way she wanted, Benjamin also felt the need to do the same.He became a walking green flag that night.He was doing every work that needed to be done in the villa. He watered the plants in the evening, fed the dogs, washed the cars, and also gave a hand in the cooking. He served food to everyone in the house, telling maids to w

The next morning.Benjamin was drinking sweet almond milk while sitting on the edge of the balcony, with his feet dangling.He saw Oliver doing whippets while sitting under a tree. When Devon saw that, Oliver gave some of it to the old man who after inhaling ended up nearly passing out.“Inhalant drugs…” Benjamin jumped down from the first floor and landed on the ground without making any noise. He approached them quietly. “What are you doing here?”Oliver’s heart jumped into his throat. “N-Nothing.” He quickly hid the packets and the balloons away. “We’re just having a chat.”“He has inhaled too much,” Benjamin was looking at Devon. “Take him to the dorms, and dispose of all the drugs you have. If I find them later, I will break all your teeth and then kick you out.”Oliver did not like what he was hearing. He did not feel intimidated by Benjamin, either. “You don’t have the power to kick me out. I get paid in the house for the work I do, but you’re an unpaid maid. Haha, you’re not c

A few minutes later.Rebecca and Benjamin were about to leave in their red Porsche.However, Selena came over to them and said, “Why don’t you come with me today? I have something to show you.”“Mom, I don’t have time to visit your shooting spot,” Rebecca said.“I won’t ask you to join me in the frame, so what are you afraid of?” Selena insisted. “You won’t regret it, so come on. It won’t take long.”Rebecca sighed and then went to one of her mother’s cars, a Range Rover worth over 350,000 dollars.Rebecca opened the back door and sat there, but then to her shock, Benjamin also entered right behind her and told her to move to the side.She didn’t want to look strange in front of her mother, so she let him sit next to her. However, she wished that she sat in the front, next to her mother.As Selena started driving, she asked. “So what’s the big thing that you’re planning? The one Veronica was talking about?”“Uh…” Benjamin was not expecting such a question from his mother-in-law. “I do
