Benson narrowed his eyes slightly, "You're not coming back tonight?"
Although through the phone, Juliana still felt the danger.
Benson's aura was so strong!
But Juliana was not afraid of him and said truthfully, "My grandmother knew I was married to you and feared I would be killed by you, so she wouldn't let me go back."
Benson's voice went cold, "So?"
Juliana said, "Come over when you have time and let Grandma know that you are nice to put her off. Grandma's not well and I don't want to irritate her and go against her."
Benson's cold voice softened and he was even a bit pleasant, "I'm nice?"
Since his illness began, all that he heard was how crazy he was and how terrible he was.
Even if someone said he was good, it was flattering and false.
But Juliana was the first one to make him feel genuine.
Juliana, "Hmm?"
He seemed to have missed the point.
Benson said, "I'll be over there some time, so you can stay there tonight."
Juliana replied, "I've refilled your medicine packs and also made you a custom pillow. You'll feel better when you sleep with it in your arms, and..."
Benson listened to the soft voice and felt that all the mania was calmed down.
He thought that if she was not around, he could also call and listen to her soft voice to fall asleep as well.
Juliana talked but didn't hear anything from the other side, thought she was disconnected, and called out tentatively, "Benson?"
Benson raised his eyebrows and said in a slightly raised voice, "Call me 'husband'."
Juliana blushed, "Mr. Leach, did you hear what I just said?"
Benson insisted, "Husband."
