Chapter 204 You Reap What You Sow

“I know, Grandma. I’ll investigate this matter thoroughly.”

Elizabeth waved her hand, giving Benjamin the green light to proceed.

After receiving her permission, Benjamin turned to Celia.

Even though she was crying her heart out at this moment, he had no sympathy for her.

“Tell me what happened.”

Celia’s crying abruptly stopped, but she couldn’t bring herself to speak.

She couldn’t tell Benjamin the truth. After all, he had warned her not to provoke Grace. Yet she hadn’t

been able to resist, and look where it had landed her.

She truly couldn’t face Benjamin or her family.

She was also afraid that there would be no place for her left in her family if she told the truth.

“Mom.” Celia could only turn to Susan.

However, Susan was also careful of Benjamin and his mood, so she remained silent.

Benjamin lost his patience. “Celia, tell the truth.”

Trembling, Celia said, “Don’t be so mad, Ben. I’m the victim now. As my brother, won’t you help me get

justice?”

“Enough, Celia.” Benjamin held back his anger, but his veins were bulging on the back of his

hand.

He looked at her coldly. “Did you provoke Grace first? Have you forgotten what I told you?”

Celia had never seen this side of Benjamin. She shook, unable to withstand the pressure.

“It wasn’t me, Ben. I didn’t do anything. The drug was Wendy’s, and she had someone set up Grace. I

didn’t know what happened, but in the end, it turned out like this.”

As Celia explained, she truly felt wronged. She’d had so little to do with the situation, but she had

ended up suffering the most.

“Just tell me did you get involved or not?”

Celia wanted to deny it, but Benjamin had such an overbearing presence. In the end, she nodded.

Seeing that, Benjamin snorted.

“You heard that? She provoked Grace first. I guess she’s also the one who schemed to ruin

Benjamin spoke each word clearly, and each word struck his own heart.

For the first time in their three years of marriage, he had chosen to believe Grace instead of solely

believing others‘ words.

It turned out that she had indeed been worthy of his trust.

“You reap what you sow,” Benjamin said coldly.

Then, he turned to Susan. “Are you still going to confront Grace?”

Hearing that, Susan felt weak and slumped onto the couch.

Benjamin then looked at Elizabeth. “Grandma, you don’t have to worry about this matter. Leave it to

me.”

Elizabeth sighed. “This is truly a family tragedy.”

With that, she got up and left the living room.

This time, Benjamin wasn’t planning on showing anyone mercy. “Sebastian, pack up Celia’s things.

Larry, book the next flight to Astana and take Celia to the airport.”

Larry responded quickly, “Yes, Mr. Hawkins.‘

Celia was dumbfounded. “Ben, no. I don’t want to go to Astana.”

Susan also begged him, saying, “Ben, please don’t do this. I only have one daughter. If you send her

away, I won’t be able to live.”

Alas, no matter how much they begged, Benjamin paid no attention to their pleas.
