Benjamin interlocked his fingers, patiently waiting for Holden to respond. Wiping his sweaty face, Holden inquired, "I can't deny it. Everything you said is true. Yet, I've never shared this secret with anyone, not even my wife. How did you uncover it?"With a smile, Benjamin responded simply, "I discerned it from the expression in your eyes, Mr. Sinclair.""Just from that?" Holden sought confirmation.Benjamin only nodded his head in response.Holden released a long exhale. Honestly, he never fully believed that the reason given by Benjamin was the truth. Instead, he had his own speculation — that Benjamin obtained information about his illness from the doctor, either through theft or bribery.He glanced over at the young man and inquired, "Sure. If some miraculous twist of fate lets you peek into all the hidden corners of my life through my eyes, then go ahead. But, I'm just puzzled, why spill it all out right here?"Heldon pressed on, "Before this, you extended an invitation for m

Slipping his phone away, Benjamin turned to Valerie with a touch of regret. "Looks like I'll be arriving home late tonight," he mentioned.Confused, Valerie furrowed her forehead, perplexed. "What's happening, Ben? We were just planning a quiet night with dinner and jazz music without any neighbors around. Why are you canceling all that so abruptly now?"Benjamin shook his head, responding with concern, "I have a client who needs urgent treatment tonight. Otherwise, he might not see the sun tomorrow. I hope you understand."It was evident that Valerie felt disappointed with Benjamin's choice. However, upon hearing that his work was related to someone's life, she refrained from making any comments."You should come home right after finishing your work, alright?" Valerie pleaded with hope in her eyes. "I'll still prepare dinner and a bottle of good wine for us. Tonight is the only chance we have to enjoy some quiet time without neighbors. Make sure this little celebration isn't postpon

Beyond Joshua's limited vision, Benjamin had landed in the building's courtyard with remarkable ease, devoid of any injuries.Benjamin let out a soft sigh while expressing, "Well, this is a tad more painful than I had envisioned."To emerge unscathed during his free fall from the third floor of the building, Benjamin amassed a substantial amount of Qi energy on the soles of his feet and calves to mitigate the impact.Nevertheless, even with his anticipation, the residual effect of the resulting pain lingered, though extremely minor.Thinking that he merely needed to acclimate to this sensation, Benjamin lifted his gaze towards the crowd of people outside the building gate.Among them, he discerned small flames emanating from dozens of Molotov cocktails.With mere seconds ticking away, the imminent danger loomed larger—gasoline-filled glass bottles, poised to be hurled, threatened to unleash a devastating inferno upon the distinguished Platinum Estate Co. building and all its occupants

Valerie extracted the room key, holding it in a firm grip. She chuckled softly, "Hehe, you're not escaping this room until I decide to hand over the key!"Wearing a visibly perturbed expression, Benjamin, being a man at heart, was never fond of being dominated by anyone. However, at that moment, Valerie had exerted a considerable amount of control over him."What is it that you truly want, Val?" Benjamin inquired."I mentioned it earlier, didn't I? I just want to have some fun with you!" Valerie noticed the displeasure on Benjamin's face, but she paid it little mind. Tonight, she desired to be in charge. She reiterated, "Let's engage in some adult games here."Benjamin inquired again, a hint of apprehension in his voice, "What kind of adult games are you thinking about?"Valerie touched her chin with her index finger, humming thoughtfully, "Hmm, how about truth or dare? I think that qualifies as an adult game."Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief. Initially, he had feared Valerie might

Ensuring the woman stood on her own, Benjamin escorted her to the outdoor terrace. His primary concern was to conduct the questioning without causing any disturbance that might disrupt Valerie's serene slumber.Simultaneously, two sleek black SUVs pulled up directly in front of the house. A robust figure swiftly disembarked from the co-driver's seat, making a beeline towards Benjamin."Young Master, are you alright?!" Lebron inquired anxiously, hastily examining Benjamin from head to toe. In his panic, he even overlooked the presence of the bound woman standing beside his master.Benjamin shook his arm and responded casually, "Take it easy, Lebron. I'm perfectly fine. Instead, I've snagged something quite interesting."At that point, Lebron finally turned his attention to the captivating woman standing beside Benjamin.The woman, standing at a height of 168cm, appeared to be in her twenties. Her slender physique resembled that of a Spanish guitar. Despite her cold and indifferent expr
