"Yes. Everyone knows you’re strong, so the site's security will be left to you. We've also assigned a deputy captain to assist you."
"Then... how much does a Security Captain get paid a month?" Ben asked with honest curiosity.
The manager smiled. "Six thousand dollars a month."
Ben’s eyes went wide. He quickly counted on his fingers.
Six thousand!
That was six thousand dollars!
Back when he was hauling bricks as a general laborer, he barely made a fraction of that.
Suddenly, he was making six thousand!
"I... I'm rich!" Ben was in shock.
"Brother!" Elena walked over at that moment.
"Elena! They said I’m the Security Captain now, and they’re paying me six thousand a month! Do you think I just got lucky?" Ben asked excitedly.

He envied them.
"Speaking of which, do none of your family members come to visit you? You've been gone for so long. That caretaker must have informed the Sinclair family by now."
Dylan gave a bitter smile. "If anyone cared to visit me, I wouldn't have ended up in this state."
Elena didn't understand how the Sinclair family could be so heartless.
"What exactly happened to you? Why did things end up like this?" Elena asked.
"Elena, I don't want to talk about it right now. When I’m recovered, I’ll tell you everything slowly."
Elena understood and didn't press him.
After all, she was only saving him because of her master's instructions.
