"That's your problem! Go away!" said Benjamin coldly.
"Mr. Benjamin, why are you so cruel? Why can't you forgive Hennings Group?" said Ysabel.
"Did you think about the consequences when you insult Emmeline?"
"I'm sorry. I will apologize to Emmeline now!"
"It's too late now!"
Ysabel looked at Benjamin with her teary eyes. "Mr. Benjamin, I'm really going to jump now!"
"Stop it, and go away!"
However, Ysabel had climbed up to the edge. Of course, she was only pretending to jump. She believed Benjamin would rescue her, so she took her bet. Unfortunately, her feet slipped.
"Ah!" Someone grabbed Ysabel's wrist at that moment and stopped her from falling down the rooftop. It was Benjamin. "Damn it! You really jumped!" said Benjamin through his gritted teeth. He knew Ysabel would fall and die if he lost his grip. Erin and other securities could not reach Ysabel's hand. They could only hold on to Benjamin's legs so that he would not fall off the rooftop together with Ysabel.
"Mr. Benjamin, please do not let go of your hand. Save me, please!" begged Ysabel.
"Shut up!" Benjamin took a deep breath and pulled Ysabel up. The force caused Benjamin to fall back on the floor, and Ysabel fell on top of him. She immediately clamped onto Benjamin.
"You're fine now. Get off me!" said Benjamin. He tried to get up, but his body was in too much pain.
Meanwhile, Ysabel was still holding onto Benjamin tightly. "I thought I was going to die! Thank you for saving me, Mr. Benjamin!" she cried.
Eric and other security tried to pull Ysabel away from Benjamin, but she would not let go.
"Get off me!" said Benjamin in disgust, trying to push Ysabel away.
"Mr. Benjamin, you saved my life. I owe you my life. I'm yours now!" cried Ysabel.
"Ridiculous!" Benjamin finally pushed Ysabel away and stood up, but he felt a sharp pain behind his head. He touched it, and his hand was full of blood.
"Mr. Benjamin, you are injured. Let me send you to the hospital," said Eric.
"Yes. And send this woman home!" Benjamin took a look at Ysabel, who was on the floor.
"Yes, sir!" said one of the security guards.
"No, I want to go to the hospital with you," said Ysabel.
"Are you crazy?" Benjamin pushed her away. Then, he walked away from the edge. Ysabel wanted to follow him, but the security stopped her.
"Mr. Benjamin, I'm yours now. I'll follow you!" Ysabel shouted at Benjamin's Porsche. Then, she called Sonia on the phone. "Sonia, you don't need to race with Emmeline anymore. I saw Benjamin just now," she said.
"Had he promised to help you?" asked Sonia.
"Not yet."
"So?"
