Chapter 329 I Did That to Save Her
Kelly looked around and her eyes were instantly locked on the room where the door was half-
opened. In a few steps, she dashed toward the room and pushed the door open only to find Aleena
lying on the bed. Aleena was still sleeping and she was almost fully naked. She looked like a mess!
Feeling uncomfortable, she even grunted unconsciously. Kelly's brain buzzed as if thunder had
struck her. Their family was rather traditional. She and her husband were upright people and their
daughter was definitely the apple of their eyes. She always told her daughter that she must love
herself and never do anything inappropriate before her marriage. On the other hand, Aleena was
always obedient, so how did she suddenly end up like that? Kelly walked into the room and gently
nudged Aleena. âAleena! Aleena, wake up!â Unfortunately, no matter how many times Kelly called
Aleena, she didn't wake up. Helpless, Kelly could only cover her with the blanket and shut the door
before walking out of the room
Then, she walked directly toward Ben. Without hesitation, she raised her hand and swung it at his
face!
A clear smack could be heard along with her heartbroken curse. âYou b*stard!â
Ben staggered after the slap. Hastily, Eric pulled Kelly over and asked, âWhat happened? Where is
Aleena?â Kelly pointed at Ben with her reddened eyes. âHe assaulted our daughter!â Upon hearing
that, Eric's face turned dark and he glared at Ben fiercely. âYou really did that?!â
Ben didn't try to explain and just said, âI'm sorry.â At once, fury coursed through Eric, causing him to
kick Ben. Ben was knocked over to the floor but he got up on the spot and kneeled. Then, he
kowtowed to Kelly and Eric while saying sincerely, âUncle Eric, Aunt Kelly, please don't be angry. Let
me explain myself. I didn't assault Aleena. In fact, I care for her more than anyone else. To be honest,
I've always admired her and what I did today was solely to save her. Uncle Eric and Aunt Kelly, don't
worry. I'll be responsible and marry her! If I had an alternative, I swear I wouldn't have done it, but I
asked for her permission and she agreed.â After all, Eric didn't know the details so he didn't
understand what Ben was saying.
"What do you mean?â Ben replied, âUncle Eric, Aleena was drugged and the potency is not only
strong, but it also lasts for hours. I never wanted to hurt her and only wanted to bring her to the
hospital. Unexpectedly, Aleena... Regardless, I'm a man and I will always be the one who is in the
wrong. If you're angry, you may hit me!â Eric was extremely shocked. âWhat do you mean, drugged?
Who did it?â While asking, he looked at Silas. That glance was full of blame as if he was saying, My
daughter was hurt at your place so you must take responsibility for it. Silas secretly scoffed while
looking at Lara and Ben, who were putting up a show. What an interesting performance. Ben first
allowed Eric and Kelly to vent their anger on him. After that, he slowly led them into finding out that
it was all their daughter's fault and he was only trying to save her. Then, Eric and Kelly would feel
extremely guilty toward Ben, who was misunderstood. Taking that opportunity, Ben would get twice
the result easily through negotiation.
If Ben was clever enough, he might even secure himself a marriage. What a brilliant tactic of making
concessions in order to gain advantages!
Silas was in a quandary as he said, âUncle Eric, Aunt Kelly, I think you should watch the CCTV
footage first.â After that, he led Eric and Kelly to the monitoring room and played the video that had
been projected on the screen by South.
