Benjamin came out of Rebecca’s room, feeling very sad as well as angry.The joke that the demons were playing on him made him feel upset. Just how low could these beings stoop? How could they mock him like this? How could they play with his feelings like this? How could they harass him like this?Benjamin came downstairs and sat opposite to where Rye and Uzza were sitting.Nobody else was around.“Did you find out anything?” Uzza asked.“Any clue?” Rye asked.“Not just the memories, but even photographic evidence has been changed,” Benjamin said.Rye’s eyes widened. “H-How’s that possible?”“It’s like we’re living in a parallel world with a different Sterling family altogether,” Uzza opined.“Yeah, that’s one way to put it,” Benjamin agreed, “but that’s not what’s happening. As you said, the times have been messed with. As a result, the memories of the people in this build have been affected. First we need to find out how far and deep this goes. Then we’ll be able to work on it.”“You
Benjamin returned to the villa, still looking sad.Louis came to meet him at the gate. “You’re finally back,” he was smiling with excitement.Benjamin blinked twice. “Y-You… You remember me?”“Of course,” Louis said. “How can I forget you?”“B-But…” Benjamin didn’t know what to say. “But the others..”“Yeah, that’s crazy, isn’t it?” Louis said. “I woke up the other day, and everyone started behaving a bit differently. It kinda spooked me. I didn’t understand what was happening, but I dared and asked the woman Uzza, and she told me that this was done by some dark spiritual forces in high places. I asked her why, but she didn’t tell me. Do you know why this is happening? Why doesn’t anyone remember who you are? They are clearly hypnotized, but they somehow completely forgot you. That makes no sense to me no matter how much I think about it. Do you have any idea?”“Unfortunately, I don’t know much better than you do,” Benjamin replied. “But it does make senses, that they didn’t want the
Benjamin entered the building with his eyes closed and hands in his pockets.Hearing some familiar voices, he opened his eyes.Lisa, Elizabeth, Shawn, and Roshan were talking about some on one side of the hall. Lisa saw Benjamin, and she kept staring at him for a little while.Benjamin waved his hand at her.“Oh my goodness. He looks so handsome,” Lisa quickly said.“Mm?” Elizabeth looked to her right and saw Benjamin. She was also pleasantly struck into silence by his handsome face.“Ahem,” Shawn cleared his throat.Elizabeth quickly shut her mouth. “U-Um, you must be… Benjamin, right? Miss Rye’s boyfriend.”Benjamin just couldn’t nod in return, so he came across as a bit rude.“He’s rude,” Elizabeth muttered under her breath while smiling.“Mom, look at him. He can be as rude as he wants,” Lisa said.“You are just sixteen! So keep your mouth shut!” Elizabeth pinched her daughter’s cheek.“Aw,” Lisa cried out.Roshan, on the other hand, came over to Benjamin and asked, “Why aren’t yo
Selena was currently watching a horse race along with Victoria Myers, who was the mother of Sofia Myers.After the race ended, Victoria won the bet and received 3 million dollars in addition to the 1 million dollars she used to palace the bet.Selena was very much thrilled to see that. “Do you always win like this?”“Most of the time,” Victoria said. “Betting is all about staying in the profit zone. If you think you’re going to lose, then you better quit. It’s better to go to sleep with a 10 dollar profit than a 100 dollar loss.”“Hahaha, right.”“I’m planning on betting on the elections,” Victoria said.“How much?”“1 billion dollars,” Victoria stated.Selena’s eyes popped out of her sockets. “A-Are you serious?”“Of course, I am.”“How can you be sure that you’ll win?” Selena couldn’t help but ask.“I’m not stupid. I have already spent 2 million dollars to privately survey the important cities and towns of the country,” Victoria said. “I even used my clothing stores to conduct more
A few minutes later.Rye entered Benjamin’s room. He was sleeping on the bed. She used that opportunity to close in and plant a kiss on his cheek. “Don’t feel too stressed, my king. Everything will end well for us. I will make sure it will.”She then sat down and just watched him.“Something truly unexpected happened. The damned angels did do something that would benefit me,” Rye thought, “but I never asked for their help. I’m sure they’re not doing this to help me but to mock Benjamin. I don’t know what exactly they’re planning, but I doubt they have the power to alter everything in reality. There’s no way God would allow them to do that. Let’s see how far they’ll take this. The more they push Benjamin, the more he will fight back, so I hope they just stay in the background and don’t try to directly poke him.”Just then, Kathy entered the room and was surprised to see Rye.“Sorry,” Kathy said and quickly left.“Mm? What was she blushing for?” Rye didn’t like it. “Was she trying to do
Seeing Rebecca’s car, Benjamin got up and went past Kathy, making her wonder where he was going. But then she saw him go straight to Rebecca’s car. “Do they know each other?” Stacy frowned.Rebecca stepped out of the car and tossed the keys.Benjamin caught them.Seeing him, she was surprised. “I’m sorry,” she smiled awkwardly. “I thought it was a worker, so I tossed the keys...”“It’s okay,” Benjamin smiled because she used to throw the keys to him sometimes in the past. (It’s not your fault. Your memories might have been altered, but your muscle memory is still there.)Seeing her smile made Benjamin temporarily forget all the pain and put every other burden aside. His heart also smiled for the first time in a long time. “You’ve got a beautiful smile,” he said. “It’s like an oasis in a desert.” He tossed the keys back to her.Rebecca was not expecting such a powerful compliment, so she didn’t know how to react. “Uh…” she couldn’t find the right words and had to think. “My smile can’t
At Origin casino.Sofia Bacic and George were playing poker again, and they were currently losing on purpose.They let one particular customer win repeatedly, so they could later get it all back from him.At some point, Sofia told him, “When he starts saying it’s enough, then handle him.”“Handle him? How?” George asked her in a low voice.“Handle him as you would my cock, with respect, reverence and awe,” Sofia said.George almost coughed blood from her words.“It’s okay, George,” Sofia patted his shoulders. “Not all days are ours. Some days we lose. Some days we win.”George forced himself to smile. (Someone, please save me. I want to get out of here.)Sofia leaned closer and whispered, “Nobody from the Sterling villa will come to save you because Shawn is terrified of me. So, you are alone. So, just shut up and do what I say. Otherwise, you’re going to lose your limbs, and then you’ll be dumped in a pig farm.”George’s spine shook from hearing those words.“Don’t think I’m joking,
“I know my daughter is right next to me, but I wished that Rebecca was also born to me,” Dorothy said. “Then I would have been able to kiss her so many times when she was a baby. I feel the same way when I look at you two. Don’t think I’m trying to flatter you or anything. I’m really speaking from my heart. You two easily defeat any popular actors and actresses out there in terms of looks”Just then, Selena came downstairs.“What about me?” Selena asked.“O-Of course, you were also in a league of your own when you were young,” Dorothy said. “I don’t need to say that because your reputation speaks for itself.”Selena pridefully smiled and then greeted Uzza, Rye, and Benjamin before sitting at the table. She sat right next to Benjamin, which he didn’t quite like because he was hoping that Rebecca would sit there.Soon, Lisa, Roshan, and Shawn also joined.Lisa kept asking Benjamin a lot of questions, even though she was priorly told by her parents to keep her mouth shut.Roshan, on the
