She Became Rich After Divorce (Cheyenne and Kelvin) novel Chapter 729

Chapter 729: The Tattoo on Her Back

Sophie's slender and elegant hand, adorned with black lace gloves, was an eye-catching sight as she paraded arm-in-arm with Rohan, the click-clack of her high heels resonating like a rhythmic beat.

Her words, delivered with a gentle smile and ruby lips, sent shivers down the spine of those who heard them. "Cheyenne has fallen victim to a curse. For the next seven days, she will be plagued by relentless nightmares, and will ultimately die in her sleep. Once she awakens from the nightmare, her heart will stop instantly upon crossing the threshold."

"Do you still intend to take her with you?"

Yvonne's lips quivered in shock, rendered motionless in an instant.

Eddie, holding Cheyenne's arm, tightened his grip involuntarily, hesitating as he stood frozen in place. Should he believe the woman's words?

Benson, with a bitter and resigned smile, stepped forward and gently took Cheyenne back from Eddie. Tenderly placing her on the bed and covering her with a blanket, his gaze lingered on her sleeping figure, filled with deep affection and reluctance.

If he had hesitated before, now he was resolute in his decision. Cheyenne meant more to Benson than anything else.

His indecisiveness hadn't gone unnoticed by Rohan, who furrowed his brow tightly, his dislike for Cheyenne growing. Firmly, he said, "Haicheng, she's just a woman. Don't forget, your fiancée has already been chosen."

Hearing this again, Benson's eyes revealed a mix of anger and disappointment as his hoarse voice echoed with a frosty tone. "You promised that Cheyenne and I would be engaged! You lied to me!"

To this, Rohan replied, "I only promised to cancel your engagement to Miss Atkinson, but never said it would be with this woman. You will marry Linda."

Benson withdrew his gaze, clenched his fists tightly, the veins on his hand bulging like sturdy earthworms wriggling under his skin. "That's your business, it has nothing to do with me. I have only chosen Cheyenne."

Rohan valued Benson highly and wanted him to be his heir. However, if he continued to be disobedient, he would have to give up Benson and reluctantly choose his less talented daughter, Charlotte.

His gaze turned sharp and menacing, delivering a final warning to Benson. "For the last time, don't ruin your future over someone unrelated. If you obediently marry Miss Linda, become my heir, and obtain the map from Cheyenne, the emperor will bestow upon you a noble title!"

It meant the Miller family would prosper for generations to come.

Unfortunately, the future envisioned by his father was not the future Benson desired. All he could remember was his mother's last words before her death.

"Benson, go far away. You will live a much happier life if you can simply be a normal person."
