Benjamin clenched the document in his hand. His eyes were fixed on her. "You knew all along." She had called him here on purpose.

"You resorted to such dirty tactics. Benjamin, I overestimated you." Grace threw the phone into a coffee cup.

Theodore continued to struggle at Benjamin's feet. "Mr. Hawkins! You know that I wasn't the mastermind. It was-" "Enough!" Benjamin kicked him away, cutting off his following words. Then, he strode toward Grace and grabbed her wrist. "Listen to me." "The truth is right here. What's there to explain?" Grace narrowed her eyes and said, "Benjamin, we've known each other so long. Our marriage didn't work out, so being strangers would have sufficed. Content beve englishto "But you had to stabin the back. Do you hatethat much?" "This..." Benjamin tightened his grip and paused.

Benjamin trembled, stung by the disappointment in her eyes.
