Chapter 98 - 98: Jealousy
In the living room, old Mr. Leach watched the two co in holding hands and Benson had a smile on his face.
This made old Mr. Leach very relieved.
Benson had never smiled much because of his illness, and even though he sotis put on a smile, it was not from his heart.
Now even his eyes were smiling and he allowed Juliana to hold his hand, which ant a good thing.
Old Mr. Leach also saw Benson's thin lips, which had been pale, were now red, glossy, and slightly swollen.
As a man that had gone through it all, he knew what it was all about.
So, he looked at Juliana with a smile on his face.
Juliana blushed instantly. She hurriedly let go of Benson's hand and sat down next to Grandma.
Old Mr. Leach smiled even more happily, then glared at Benson and whispered, "We have guests here. Take it easy."
Grandma watched the interaction between the two and was happy for Juliana.
The newlyweds were close to each other so that they would have a good relationship.
It would be better if Juliana had children so that she would change completely even if her current changes were temporary.
This was what Grandma thought.
Soon, Jayden and Selene ca in as well and both of them did not look very good.
The angry look still remained on Jayden's face, while Selene was biting her lip aggrievedly, her eyes red.
No need to ask, everyone could tell that they had had a fight.
Juliana was happy when they were not happy and ate more food at lunch.
After eating, Grandma couldn't bear to stay any longer, so she took Selene and Jayden away.
At soone else's house, Selene and Jayden had first made strange remarks, then cheekily stayed for lunch, and even quarreled and put on a long face.
All the things they had done had disgraced Grandma and filled her with anger towards Selene.
In the past, Grandma had loved Juliana because she had lost her mother.
She had loved Selene because she had been a good girl in every way, who had been her pride.
However, Selene gave Grandma a slap on the face. Grandma was not only angry but also a bit disgusted with her.
When they got ho, Grandma thrashed Selene and drove her to kneel on the third floor.
Selene knelt in front of Grandpa's portrait, thinking about everything that had happened today, and hated Juliana even more.
She had expected to see Juliana beaten by Benson and unable to get out of bed but ended up watching them love each other.
She had even been misunderstood by Jayden and they had had a big fight.
Selene rubbed her sore knee, her eyes burning, "Juliana, wait for it!"
...
On the other hand, Juliana was a little angry and decided she had to have a good talk with Benson.
Benson was in his study, working.
Juliana sat across from him and called him seriously, "Benson."
Benson frowned at her, "Mrs. Leach, call honey."
Juliana repeated, "Benson..."
Benson looked up at her with a cool gaze, "Hmm?"
It seed like the conversation was not going to continue until Juliana changed her words.
Juliana sighed inwardly and then said, "Mr. Leach, can you trust more in the future? Don't get mad when you see a man get close to ."
He had been angry when she accidentally ran into Jayden at the stairway.
If she hadn't appeased him quickly enough, he would have had another attack, she deeply believed it.
Benson looked at her with a serious face, "Jealousy and trust can coexist."
