Chapter 30 No Love For You âBenjamin!â Feeling devastated, Danna ran up to him and hugged him from behind.
âI was wrong, Benjamin. After all these years, youâre still cold and hostile toward me. My heart hurts so much just from thinking about it. Canât you just forgive me? Iâm really sorry. I-I shouldnât have set you up. But I really like you, and I want to be with you! Why arenât you able to forgive what I did? Itâs not that I donât love Gavin. Iâm just worried that I was pampering him too much!â
Mustering up her courage, Danna continued with a quivered voice, âDoes this mean that youâre not going to be with me anymore, Benjamin?â
She only wanted to stay beside him. After all, they were in a romantic relationship. Danna wondered whether she was in the wrong all along.
Benjamin felt uncomfortable by Dannaâs sudden action. Immediately, he freed himself and turned around to see Dannaâs eyes filled with tears. He frowned heavily and shouted, âYou knew I hate being set up!â
Danna shivered uncontrollably as her eyes met with Benjaminâs cold glare.
He walked toward the window and looked outside.
In a cold and chilling voice, Benjamin went on, âYou were aware of the consequences, and you knew what you were doing. Are you that desperate be a part of the Graham family?â
Danna was embarrassed upon hearing Benjaminâs words. Clenching her fists tightly, she whimpered, âI love you. I want to be with you, and I want to get married to you. Am I wrong for thinking that way?â
Benjamin turned on his heel and looked at her with distant, cold eyes. âBut I donât love you at all!â
âImpossible!â Danna staggered, unable to accept what Benjamin had said to her.
She stepped forward and tried to wrap her arms around his neck.
Just as she was about to lean forward and kiss him, Benjamin caught a whiff of the pungent perfume smell on her. Instantly, he felt dizzy and nauseous.
Benjamin pushed Danna away and glared sharply at her.
âStop doing all the things that I despise!â
Danna felt intensely frustrated. After all these years, Benjamin never forgave her for what she did. Not only that, he became even more hostile toward her.
Itâs normal for couples to kiss, isnât it? Why is he rejecting my kiss? He even said itâs something that he despises?
Danna scoffed quietly.
Benjamin had always indulged her wishes when they were together in the past.
âWhy?â As tears brimmed in her eyes, Danna could not help but question him. âAre you in love with someone else?â
Having heard what Ethen had said a while ago, Danna panicked upon seeing how Benjamin behaved toward her.
âYou know Iâm not in the mood for this. Just leave.â
Benjamin gave her a cold glance before returning to his desk.
âDonât come looking for Gavin. Even if you do, you wonât be able to see him at all!â
Danna was infuriated. Iâve done so much for him, and yet I get nothing in return?
âBenjamin... The elders want us home for dinner.â
Benjamin froze. Without lifting his head, he answered, âAll right.â
As she looked at his cold demeanor, Dannaâs heart ached badly. Unfortunately, she was madly in love with his handsome face.
As she regained her composure, Danna placed the food next to Benjamin and said, âIâll take my leave, then.â
Benjamin remained silent in return.
Upon seeing his muted response, tears welled up in Dannaâs eyes. She covered her mouth and darted out of the room.
Benjamin cast a glance at the door before returning his gaze to the lunch box Danna had left on the desk. A darkened expression appeared on his face as he was reminded of how Danna had tried to harm his son.
Gavin had woken up in the middle of the night from a terrible nightmare. It was only at dawn that he was able to fall asleep again.
I wonder if that kidâs awake now?
The More the Merrier ï¤Chapter 29 EX-husband Groveling to Me ï¤Chapter 730 Let Victor Shoot For You Meanwhile, Jasper, who was still mistaken for Gavin, was busy stuffing his mouth with food in the dining area, accompanied by the butler.
âIs there any more food left, Mr. Whitley?â
Edwin was shocked to see his enormous appetite.
âYou donât eat that much normally, Gavin. Why are you eating so much all of a sudden?â
Jasper blinked and said, âItâs because Iâm hungry!â
