Miss Mystery Got Busted novel Chapter 8

Benson lay on the pillow with a faint scent of medicine on it. He lay on his side and could not see Juliana's face.

He could only see her in her nightgown as well as her snow-white thighs and wrists.

When her hands reached his shoulders, he could also smell the faint fragrance from her hands.

That fragrance smelled similar to herbs, but it was more refreshing than the pillow, which instantly soothed his anxiety.

It was a calmness that he had never known before.

By the time Juliana finished the acupuncture, Benson's agitation was calmed and sleepiness overcame him after three days of no sleep.

Benson still struggled to look at Juliana.

Juliana pulled the needles from his body and said in a soft voice: "Sleep now. I'll stay here."

The gentle words made Benson unburdened. He could no longer resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.

Juliana looked at Benson sleeping. His face was still cold but much softer and he looked much better without the ruthlessness and coldness.

Looking at Benson's long, black, and thick eyelashes, Juliana reached out and touched them, "I can't believe he has such beautiful eyelashes."

Juliana didn't know Benson's body very well yet, so she stayed by the bedside.

Later, she could not stay awake any longer and fell asleep by the bed.

Sleeping, Juliana suddenly sensed danger and her eyes snapped open to meet a pair of scarlet and homicidal eyes.

"Mr... um."

Juliana had only raised her head before Benson grabbed her by her neck. He was so fast that she had no time to make a move.

This time, Benson grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up.

Juliana was about to suffocate when she grabbed Benson's arm and bent it hard.

Benson let go in pain but came up with his fists again.

Once again, the two fought fiercely in the room, breaking the room's furnishings.

Juliana had failed to win the fight when Benson was sober; now that Benson was out of his mind, Juliana was even less able to win.
