Chapter 240 Embarrassing Moment
“What are you doing?”
At the doorway, Benjamin’s voice carried a hint of anger.
Without a moment’s hesitation, he strode over to Grace and forcefully took her hand without saying a word.
Before Grace could react, he briskly led her outside.
“What’s going on?” Grace looked up with disbelief in her eyes.
Benjamin frowned but offered no explanation. “Regardless of what you just saw, don’t dwell
on it.”
Grace became increasingly puzzled. She felt like there were some dark secrets hidden in there.
“This is just too strange,” Grace muttered, recalling what she had just seen.
She stared at Benjamin’s face and finally asked, “Why is your black and white photograph hanging on the wall like a dead man’s? Are you a ghost?”
Benjamin was annoyed. “Nonsense. You’ve got it wrong.”
“Really?” Grace asked again. As she spoke, she realized that she had unconsciously pulled her hand away from Benjamin’s firm grip.
Benjamin’s hands were empty, but he patiently suggested, “The birthday banquet is about to
start. Let’s go
downstairs.”
Grace had her doubts, but she wondered if she might be overthinking things. After all, Benjamin was standing perfectly unharmed in front of her, wasn’t he?
“What about Grandma? Is she okay?” Grace asked.
“What are you talking about?”
Grace explained, “I heard that Grandma wasn’t feeling well, so I came upstairs to check on her.
Benjamin gave her a suspicious look. “Grandma is fine, but next time, don’t come in here again.”
Grace lowered her gaze and nodded.

“Careful!” Benjamin instinctively pulled her arm, moving her aside and using his own b*dy to shield her from the incoming object.
