Juliana didn't understand, but she didn't want to die either, so she nodded heavily, "I understand."
Benson went downstairs, looked up at the room on the second floor, and then got into the car.
Philip saw Benson smiling pleasantly in the rearview mirror, feeling... a little puzzled.
After getting into the car, Benson's eyes suddenly darkened, "Break Jermaine Lewis' leg."
Philip shuddered at the cold voice and answered respectfully, "Got it."
Benson then ordered in a cold voice, "Find out what had happened to Juliana at her family's home today."
He would not spare anyone who bullied his Mrs. Leach!
Things weren't difficult to find out about the Lewis family.
By five o'clock in the evening, Benson got the findings from Channing Payne, his special assistant.
Benson narrowed his eyes slightly, "Selene Lewis showed off her $200,000 engagement ring to Jill?"
Channing only felt the air suddenly cool down, but still braced himself and nodded, "Yes, Selene Lewis also said the young lady was jealous of her..."
Benson sneered coldly, "How dared she show off a piece of junk that's only $200,000? Is it worth Jill's jealousy?"
Channing thought to himself that they weren't talking about the young lady being jealous of the ring...
Benson looked up at Channing and asked, "Have you told me there's a charity auction recently?"
Channing nodded, "Yes, it's tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m., but..."
Benson said, "Change my schedule and I'm going to the auction tomorrow."
Channing had to swallow the words "you have turned it down".
He was curious as to what was the charm of Miss Lewis who would just mess around to get Mr. Leach so attracted to her.
...
The next evening, Juliana put on light makeup and a red dress and headed out to Moonshine Club.
However, she had only just left the garden when Benson came back.
Benson got out of the car and looked carefully at Juliana's dress, which was enchanting as well as simple and elegant so that people wouldn't dare to covet her. He slightly narrowed his eyes, "Where are you going?"
Juliana told him truthfully, "Moonshine Club."
For her, as long as she didn't do anything against him, there was no need to hide it from him so that she could gain his trust.
Of course, she didn't want to do anything against him either.
Benson frowned at her calf, "Didn't we agree that you should wait until you were healed?"
Juliana jumped in place twice to show him, "It's already healed."
It was only a one-centimeter superficial wound and there was no need to dress it in an ugly bow, let alone stay in bed to heal.
Benson frowned, "Are you in such a hurry?"
Juliana nodded naturally, "Yes, your medicine needs to be tested as early as possible so that I can find out the cause of your illness and prescribe the right medicine. Your disease can't wait too long." 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦
It turned out that she was concerned about his health.
Benson looked at her with a pleasant smile as he said, "You can go there tomorrow. Now accompany me to an auction."
As Mrs. Leach, there were certain obligations that Juliana had to fulfill, for example, accompanying him to some events as his date.
Therefore, she didn't refuse.
Juliana looked down at her dress, "Then I'll go change my dress."
Yesterday, Benson had had many clothes, bags, and all kinds of things for various occasions sent to her. The cloakroom on the third floor was now all filled with her dresses.
Benson took her hand and said, "Don't bother. You look very nice in this."
He had already shown respect to the auction by taking Mrs. Leach with him, so there was no need to dress up.
Juliana asked him, "Why do you suddenly want to go to the auction?"
She remembered that Benson didn't like these occasions and always asked his special assistant to go if he had to.
Benson, "To bid on something."
Something that would make others jealous of you.
