“What do you want?” Dorothy asked in a low voice. “Haven’t your Myers family betrayed the Sterling family already? Selena lost a bet because of your mother, so for what reason are you calling me now? Don’t think I’m easy to fool.”“I called for one reason only,” Sofia spoke calmly. “Give me Benjamin's number.”Dorothy was surprised. “I-I don’t know the number, and I don’t think he even has a mobile.”“If you want money, then you might want to help me get him,” Sofia said slowly but with confidence.Dorothy thought for a moment and said, “How much money are we talking about?”“More than you expect,” Sofia said. “And your daughter will once again be able to join the Fox Club. I give my word.”Dorothy was happy to hear that, but she said, “I don’t believe you.”“We’re doing business now,” Sofia said. “Let us just make transactions. I’ll send you a hundred grand today. That’s just the advance. Once you succeed in doing what I say, then I will give you a lot more. A lot, lot more.”Dorothy

In Elizabeth’s room.Shawn was seeing all the items of Elizabeth. He could see dozens of Louis Vuitton bags. “Damn, you’ve got like everything in here. I know you buy a lot, but this is crazy.”“Haha, my crazy habit is now going to help us start a lucrative business,” Elizabeth proudly said.“You say, it’s lucrative, but do you really think people will buy these items?” Shawn doubtfully asked.“Why wouldn’t they?” Elizabeth confidently said. “Trust me, they’ll jump at these like there’s no tomorrow.”“How are you so confident?”“C’mon, you see me, and you don’t think there are other women like me?” Elizabeth said. “There are women who are crazier than me. Too much makeup. Fake hair. Fake eyelashes. Fake eyebrows. Fake boobs. Fake butt. Push up bras. High heels. They wear everything they can to look ultra cool and perfect.”“Yeah, the deception runs deep,” Shawn stated. “Their looks are completely fake, but still, they say they deserve a real man. If you look completely natural from be

Before Lisa could help George, Uzza kicked him in the waist, sending him rolling down the mat. The bucket also rolled another way, which freed him.“U-Uncle…” Lisa’s eyes bulged out. “Y-Your hair… it’s all gone!”“What are you…” George touched his head, and he couldn’t feel his hair anymore. It was all gone. He looked around, and his hair was lying on the mat everywhere.“How weak of a hair you got,” Uzza snorted. “You just put your head in the water once, and all the hair fell off. How pitiful.”George still looked very shocked and confused. Did he really lose all his remaining hair? He already looked older than his age, but now that his hair was gone, he looked worse because his head was shaped a little like an egg, and he hated that. “M-My hair..” tears welled up in his eyes.In Elizabeth’s room.“So you are going to create multiple outlets to sell these costly products,” Shawn was nodding as he observed the items. “It doesn’t sound crazy, but will it work?”“We’ll start with one.

Moments after Lisa left the balcony, Selena came there. Delle put a chair in between Rebecca and Benjamin, and Selena sat there.Delle gave her coffee and then left.As Selena sipped on the coffee, she looked at her daughter and noticed something. “Rebecca, is that a gray hair on your head?”Rebecca was surprised by that. “No it’s not,” she replied without even taking a look at it. Why would her mother bring up the topic about her hair in front of Benjamin? She didn’t understand it.“I didn’t get a single gray hair until I turned 37,” Selena said. “You’re not even thirty, and you are already starting to get gray hair. That’s not good, Rebecca. Use aloe vera. We have lots of aloe vera growing at our home, so use them.”Rebecca didn’t say anything.“Aloe Vera is good,” Benjamin voiced his mind. “It cools the head and reduces the stress, so it will help promote the health of the hair, but if you want the hair to be darkened, I think you should use related herbs like hibiscus powder.”“I

Rebecca and Benjamin were still on the balcony, and she was staring at the sun. “Is it just me, or does the sun feel a little different?”Benjamin smiled a little. “Why do you feel it’s different?”“I don’t know…” she shrugged. “I don’t feel the same warmth I used to feel.”“I don’t know if you’ve noticed it or not, but the sunflowers in your garden are facing away from the sun.”“W-What?” Rebecca quickly stood and looked down from the balcony and saw the sunflowers, and they were facing the west in the morning. “You’re right. They are facing West. How’s that possible?”“The dandelions haven’t opened their faces,” Benjamin added, “and the birds are singing at 3 and 4 in the morning.”“Why is that?” Rebecca looked confused.“Because their biological clocks have been affected by the so-called sun you see up there,” Benjamin said as he looked at the sun that was no longer giving the warm orange light but was giving a bright white light like that of an LED light. (Even the real sun has be

Rye raised her eyebrows. “Why are you sitting over there? Come and sit next to me.”“Please, Rye, let me sit here,” Benjamin requested.“Why? So that you can sit next to her?” Rye asked without hesitation. “Am I not the one who called you to eat with me?”Benjamin sighed and then changed places and sat next to her.She took out a sliced piece of carrot and brought it closer to his mouth. He didn’t open his mouth and looked at her as if asking what she was doing. “This is the reward for listening to my request.”Benjamin then opened his mouth slightly, and she slid the carrot piece into his mouth like how one would push a coin into the vending machine.But then he wasn’t chewing it, so she said, “You know what, Benjamin, did she ever put anything in your mouth? At least a grape or a biscuit or something?”Benjamin didn’t answer.“Thought so,” Rye slightly shook his head. “Love should be mutual, you know.”“God loved us first when we were still sinners,” he retorted.“Don’t compare your

Most lovers would shy away from questions regarding marriage, which would generally turn the atmosphere into an awkward one. This was what Dorothy was hoping to achieve.The moment she asked that question, ‘When are you two going to marry?’, Benjamin was surprised by it, but Rye wasn’t.Rye quickly wrapped her arm around his arm and smiled while looking at her. “Whenever we’re ready.”Her response was simple and perfect in their eyes.But Dorothy asked, “You mean, you aren’t ready now? No offense, but if you can’t commit to marriage now, then I’m not sure if that thought will change in the future.”“Not when our love is larger than our faults and failures,” Rye leaned into Benjamin and kissed him on the cheek. “He’s already made a very big mistake, but that doesn’t stop me from loving him. And I think the same is the case with him. Isn’t that right, Benjamin?”Benjamin squeezed his lips together.“He’s just being shy,” Rye said, smiling.Dorothy also forced out a smile. (I was trying

Lisa came to Benjamin that morning and asked him to drop her to school again like yesterday.Rye was right next to him, and she said, “Do you really think you can attract him, girl?”Lisa was a bit shocked by Rye’s boldness. How did Rye even see through her hidden intentions? “I-I wasn’t trying to do anything like that.”“I know, but he’s not going to fall for a spoiled child,” Rye said, patting Lisa’s shoulder. “You should ask your dad or mom to drop you at school instead. Go.”Lisa reluctantly left. She was still glancing at Benjamin every now and then, hoping he’d take her out.Rye frowned. “This girl… I tried to humble her a bit, but her ego is quite big.”Benjamin didn’t look surprised. “She’s part of the Sterling family, after all.” His words sounded like they came from experience.“You’ve been with them for a while, so you need some cleansing, too,” Rye told him.Benjamin’s shoulders slumped a little.“I’m just kidding, my guy,” Rye laughed and wrapped her arm around his shoul
