Chapter 62
“Ahem ahem…”
Swallowing the bread absent-mindedly, Lynn was chocked by it so suddenly that she couldn’t breathe. Therefore, she quickly took the milk to drink.
“Ahem ahem…”
“Are you all right, Young lady?” Neil asked with concern.
After patting her chest a few times, Lynn was much better was shocked to be silent when staring at everyone’s weird gazes.
Benson’s gaze was so dim that made Lynn be choked to the point of speechless.
“Is the bread too dry? I’ll go get a bowl of porridge.”
Lynn shook her head, thinking that she couldn’t even eat the most delicious food in the world right now.
Recalling the wretched and ugly man with abscesses all over his face, Lynn felt as uncomfortable as if there was a caterpillar crawling all over her body even though it was in broad daylight
Holding her forehead, she wondered if she had done anything unforgivable that made God to punish her to suffer such shame in her sleep.
She would never forget this psychological shadow in the rest of her life.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Clenching her hands into fists, she slammed on the table, causing the knife and fork to jump up.
“Asshole, bastard, I’ll definitely kill you when I know who you are!”
Lynn was so furious that she was breathing heavily. Her face that had been pale before was also livid, scaring the senior executives next to her to stare at Lynn with doubt.
Benson’s hand holding the phone also froze and he asked her seriously.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Lynn looked sideways at him. Benson was wearing a brown trench coat today, which made him look very handsome especially when compared with the ugly man with abscesses on his face.
Lynn couldn’t help thinking that it would have been better if it had been Benson last night.
‘No’, Lynn patted her face, ‘what am I thinking about?’
“What’s the matter, Young lady?”
Some people even thought that Lynn was obsessed and looked at Benson cautiously.
Received all kinds of their weird gazes, Benson ordered Lynn nonchalantly.
“Go to the next table for breakfast. We’re going to have an early meeting here.”
Then he took the laptop that Neil handed over.
Benson said it right. They all had finished eating and sitting on the sidelines watching. Even the whole restaurant had finished eating.
Lynn nodded, holding the plate and the milk to sit down on the empty table next to her.
As soon as she sat down, Benson came over. Feeling shadowed, Lynn raised her head.
“What are you thinking about?” Benson asked above her head.
‘Ah, it’s…’
In a daze, Lynn doubted if he was caring about her, which was very unbelievable.
“What do you mean by ‘Bastard’ when you slapped the table just now? Did someone bully you?” Benson felt a little awkward when saying these words, but he tried his best to keep normal.
Lynn was shocked. She had guessed it right because Benson was really caring about her.
But on the thought of that ugly bastard, she felt so stressed by Benson’s concern, so she shook her head with guilt.
“No, no one bullied me. I just didn’t sleep well last night, so I’m a little sleepy.”
“You didn’t sleep well last night?”
He witnessed her with his own eyes that she slept soundly last night. Her breathing was so even that made him, who had always suffered from insomnia, sleep soundly.
‘Did he know something?’ Lynn was so guilty, almost being frozen by his sharp gaze.
‘Wait,’ Lynn suddenly thought, ‘if Benson knows I slept together with a strange man, he’ll feel really upset, won’t he?’
If he, as the honorable and treasured president of The Warner Group in Los Santos, learned that his wife had slept with an ugly and wretched man, he would feel really shameful to be cheated on.
‘No,’ Lynn shook her head, ‘I can’t let him know that. Although I hate him and hope he could be pissed off, it won’t benefit me if I tell him that accident. It’s too worthless to do.’
Lynn took a bite of the bread, replying, “Yeah, I didn’t sleep well last night. In order to catch those two bad men, I barely slept in the first half of the night, so I was really in low spirit. You should have known that, right?”
However, Benson seemed that he still didn’t believe her as he didn’t stop staring at her.
“Well, I’m full. I’ll leave first.”
Wiping her mouth, Lynn got up.
But after a few steps, she turned back suddenly because she thought she couldn’t let that bastard go.
“Did you hear what they said just now?”
“Who?” Benson frowned.
“Ahem, I just heard them say that a bastard came to the hotel to peep at women last night. He was so bad that I think you should send someone to find him as soon as possible. I hate this kind of bastard the most. If you catch him, leave him to me to teach him a lesson.”
“Leave him to you? Are you sure?”
“Why do you keep looking at me!”
Benson couldn’t help laughing. Thinking of the bastard that Lynn had just scolded and the conversation with the two employees in the morning, he figured it out. After all, Lynn was quick-witted and not stupid.
She must have found that someone had slept in her room last night when weaking up. Now, she must believe the bastard had sneaked into her room more.
However, Neil had already investigated the man in Miss Green’s words and it turned out that the man was a traitor and had been caught by Benson. At that time, that man had been busying murdering Benson, it was impossible for him to spare time peeping at Lynn.
Benson laughed inexplicably, which made Lynn feel that her thoughts were about to be seen through by him.
“Forget it. You don’t need to look for him anymore. He already ran away.”
Hearing that, Lynn turned around to leave in a hurry, thinking she was so stupid because if the man was founded and confessed that he had slept together with her for one night, she would be too ashamed to live.
After leaving the restaurant, she ran back to the hotel to find John because she wanted to go back home. However, she didn’t find him after a long search and the reception told her that John had checked out and left.
Lynn was depressed, thinking why he had left without telling her. It was him that brought her here but left her here as well.
After running to the rockery by the lake and sitting for a while, Lynn took out her mobile phone and was about to call her grandmother when a stone suddenly hit her in the head. With a bang, she felt a huge pain.
Immediately covering her head, she turned around to glare at the perpetrator while Katrina crossed her arms, saying, “Lynn, you’re damned.”
She had been in fury in the while morning. She had woken up very early in the morning, but as soon as she opened the door, she saw Benson tiptoeing out of Lynn’s room. Everyone could tell that he had spent the night in Lynn’s room last night.
‘Lynn must have tempted Benson into her room.’
Lynn touched the back of her head and saw the blood when looking at her hand. Thinking she had been smashed to bleed, she was instantly ignited and strode to Katrina.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“You’re doomed.”
At the same time, Katrina glanced back to find Benson heading toward them after the meeting.
