Chapter 110

Unaware of the shift in Ben’s expression, Isabella sobbed, “Mr. Landor, I didn’t do it voluntarily last night! Leo bribed my maid somehow and spiked my water. Then, he… took. advantage of me while I was unconscious!”

As Isabella spoke, she burst into tears again.

Ben observed her tearful state, and his expression grew increasingly peculiar.

“Mr. Landor, I know people have misconceptions about you. In reality, you are a very upright and kind person,” Isabella said with a pleading look. “Mr. Landor, Leo did this to me. Please see that justice is served.”

“Upright and kind?” Ben’s expression grew even more perplexing.

“Yes.” Isabella nodded vigorously.

Ben etched the information into his memory. When he was young, he had a tarnished reputation, yet he disdained to explain it. Only Susan could discern his kindness and goodness beneath the surface.

That was why he liked Susan so much.

But now, Isabella wanted to tell Ben that in this world, Susan wasn’t the only one who comprehended him. She, Isabella, also understood him.

Seeing Ben’s strange expression, Isabella thought that he was surprised by her ability to perceive him, so she continued, “Mr. Landor, I’m different from those people. When they see your face, they think you’re harsh. However, I recognize the tenderness within your heart. Even your visage, which others may avoid, remains exceptionally handsome in my eyes.”

As she spoke, Isabella plucked up her courage and looked at Ben shyly.

She had to let Ben know that she was not afraid of him, and understood him very well.

The two of them were a perfect match.

Ben was speechless.

A 0 He had thought that Isabella was there to accuse him.

Now he felt that Isabella might be out of her mind.

How could she perceive him as a kind and gentle man?

Ben was amused by her words. He said with an expressionless face, “I drugged you.”

He didn’t intend to hide it at all.

“Mr. Landor.” Isabella didn’t believe him. She said, “I know you want to take all the blame, but it was Leo, he should be held accountable, I know it very well.”

Ben didn’t know what to say.

He was left utterly speechless.

Isabella thought that she had hit the nail on the head. She lowered her head and suddenly became extremely shy. “And… and if you want me, Mr. Landor. I’m actually willing,” she stammered.

As she spoke, she plucked up the courage to glance at Ben before quickly lowering her head.

Ben was speechless.

His expression suddenly turned icy. “Miss Smith, please behave yourself.”

Isabella said sadly, “I know that I’m no longer a virgin, but my heart has always remained pure and dedicated to you. I trust that with your magnanimity, you won’t be concerned about such a minor detail, will you?”

As she spoke, Isabella looked at Ben expectantly.

Ben was suddenly filled with disgust.

With a cold look on his face, Ben suddenly took a step forward and put his hand on Isabella’s neck expressionlessly.

“Mr. Landor.” Isabella took the initiative to lean her neck closer to him.

A According to the memoirs, she firmly believed that Ben was an upright person who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. She was not worried at all that Ben would harm her in any way.

Not only would he harm her, but he would also help her cancel her marriage with Leo.

This was Ben.

Ben was the kindest person in the world.

As Isabella contemplated, Ben abruptly withdrew his hand.

Her pupils suddenly constricted.

She subconsciously grabbed Ben’s arm, and a flicker of disbelief flashed in her eyes.

What… what was Ben doing?

Ben looked at her expressionlessly. “I don’t know why you have such a misunderstanding about me.

Miss Smith, you know clearly what you did last night. I drugged you as tit for tat. I don’t care about what happened between you and Leo. If you say any nonsense in front of me again, I won’t be as lenient.”

Isabella was dumbfounded.

Her fragile heart shattered into pieces in an instant.

How… how could Ben say things like that?

He was a super philanthropist, recognized as a good person.

Was she hallucinating?

Isabella blinked, trying to convince herself that she was merely having an illusion.

However, Ben’s face was still icy cold.

“Isabella, you saved grandpa once, and I’ve already exacted revenge yesterday. We’re square,” Ben said, his expression devoid of emotion. “However, if you ever dare to engage in any scheming or plotting… I can’t promise I won’t respond harshly.”

Ben tightened his grip and said in a fierce voice, “Do you understand?”

Isabella was a little terrified, but she still nodded subconsciously.

Only then did Ben let go of her with a sneer.

He took a handkerchief, wiped his palm slowly, and then left the room expressionlessly.

Isabella’s legs gave way, and she crumpled to the ground, utterly helpless.

Recalling how terrifying Ben looked just now, her eyes were filled with fear.

Was that the true face of Ben?

That was not what was written in his memoirs.

As Isabella recollected what Ben had written in his memoirs, she immediately felt extremely embarrassed.

“My wife likes me because she has glimpsed the beautiful heart beneath my fierce exterior. She thinks that I am the best person in the world.”

“Personally, I like to fight for justice, which is also one of my wife’s favorite qualities.”

“I’m also keen on doing charity. Every time I see those poor people, I can’t help shedding tears with my wife.”

“Ben, you bastard! You fooled me!” Isabella thought furiously.

However, for some reason, Isabella’s jealousy towards Susan intensified even further.

If Ben was indeed a kind person, his attentive treatment of Susan could be attributed to his loyalty to his marriage.

But what if Ben was actually an utter villain?

For the sake of Susan, a villain had transformed into a good person for the rest of his life.

Isabella felt inexplicably sad in her heart.

How could Susan receive such special treatment from Ben?

However, Isabella was unwilling to give up.

But when she thought of how terrifying Ben looked, she felt a little scared.

Listening to Ben’s words, she understood that he had retaliated in the same manner the previous day because he knew what she had done.

She had only permitted Timothy and Susan to stay in the same room, but Ben’s retaliation had indeed cost her virginity.

It could be seen that Ben was really vengeful and did not show any mercy.

Fortunately, she still held the trump card of saving Charlie earlier. Otherwise, Isabella had no doubt that she would have faced a much more severe retribution.

If Ben were to catch her in any transgression again, Isabella didn’t know how he would handle her.

Isabella remained immobilized on the ground for a while before gradually standing up.

She was a little scared.

But she couldn’t help thinking about it.

If the person Ben had feelings for became her…

Would she then become the one under Ben’s complete protection?

Isabella truly couldn’t help but entertain such thoughts.

First of all, she had underestimated the relationship between Susan and Ben.

Secondly, she had misjudged Ben.

But now, she had already learned the lesson of failure.

She still had the advantage of being a seer.

Next time, she would definitely be able to do it flawlessly.

“Ben… Ben…”

7 Chapter 110.

Isabella repeated, and her expression slowly changed.

“I’m waiting for the day when you fall for me!” she thought.
