Selene was aggrieved all of a sudden, her eyes red and tears welling up, "Even if Jill doesn't admit it, she's my sister, so, Benson..."
Benson looked up and interrupted her coldly, " If I hear you call me like this one more time, you will suffer the consequences!"
Selene felt her tongue tingle, feeling as if Benson would cut off her tongue if she called him by his name again.
She shut her mouth in fear and looked up at Grandma, "Grandma."
Grandma was also startled by Benson who was so cold and ruthless.
But when she looked up, she saw Benson bone a fish and then give it to Juliana.
He looked not at all fierce like he had just been.
Grandma had a sense of propriety and knew that Benson was probably only good to Juliana.
He respected her also because of Juliana.
Grandma only said "Let's eat" and nothing else, not to mention helping Selene.
Selene could only choke with sobs and eat with her head down.
Benson didn't like to eat with so many people. He ate very little, and spent the whole time to help Juliana with the food, soup, and fish.
He did not deliberately but naturally took care of her.
And Juliana did not resist and accepted it silently.
The two of them were so harmonious that they seemed to be doing so every day, without any deliberate attempt to show their affection.
Selene, however, had a nasty taste.
After dinner, Juliana took Benson for a walk.
There was a small garden with a small vegetable garden behind it in the mansion.
There were two different views and a pool.
Juliana looked into the pool with the turquoise water and asked Benson, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
