If he could destroy his face and become the ugliest man in the world, he could marry Emmeline and get the antidote for Abel. That was the safest way and would prevent any future problems.
In any case, it was better for Emmeline to marry the CEO of Adelmar Group than a random man.
More importantly, he could use his influence to explain to the public what happened. That way, Emmeline would not have to risk her reputation.
Also, he would return Emmeline to Abel once everything was settled. He doubted the other people would do the same. Those people would not be happy once they find out they were being exploited.
He thought Emmeline was too reckless, and he would have to protect her himself.
Benjamin rested the tip of the scalpel on his forehead. That was the best place to start.
It would be very easy to draw a line from there and split the skin of his face in two…
At the same time, Janie rushed into the mansion.
"Yvonne? Where is Mr. York?"
"He's in the study," Yvonne said anxiously. "You should go and see if he's okay!"
Without saying another word, Janie ran up the stairs.
She did not knock on the door. Instead, she twisted the doorknob and pushed the door open. Luckily, the door was not locked.
The curtains were drawn. She saw Benjamin holding a scalpel to his face and was about to bring it down!
"Benjamin! No!" She pounced at him.
Benjamin was focused on the scalpel. He did not react in time, and Janie managed to grab onto him.
The scalpel in his hand fell on the floor.
Janie quickly fell to the floor and took the scalpel in her hand.
"Who let you in? Give me the scalpel!" Benjamin said angrily.
