A deal with the devil

Chapter 148



Under Benjamin’s sharp gaze, Shirley asked slowly, “Really? What time?–
It turned out this bewnted to bring her out past to test her.
Benjamin replied nonchalantly, “I’ll let you know when the time comes.”
After that, the office tell into silence
Shirley didn’t take the initiative to make conversation like usual. Benjamin’s constant doubts and tests had left her feeling gloomy,
and she didn’t feel like trying to please him.
However, the atmosphere in the office grew increasingly tense. It was as if the alt around then had dropped by a few degrees,
sending chills down her spine.
Benjamin didn’t seem to have much of an appetite. After a few bites, he put down the cutlery and fixed isis gaze on her. “Do you
have nothing to say?
“No, I don’t
Shirley shook her head. It was obvious that he had planned everything, so there was nothing for her to say,
She didn’t understand that Benjamin was referring to something completely different. He didn’t return home all night, and she, as
his wife, didn’t ask a single question. He thought she was being awfully “understanding” and “pensemos“.

The atmosphere in the office grew increasingly tense, Shirley couldn’t take it anymore, so she said, “Damian is waiting for me at
home, so I’m going to leave now
With that she quickly stood up and walked out.
As soon as she stepped out of the othice, there was a loud bang.
The lid of the lunchbox had been knocked over, and it rolled to her feet, where it remained still
Shidley stood where she was
The secretaries outside shrunk back and held their breath
After hesitating for a moment, Shirley bent down to pick up the lid. When she turned around, she saw the mess on the floor.

Meamstille, Benjamin sat where he was and looked at her with a gloomy expression
It was as if she had no temper. She called for someone outside, and after a while, someone brought her a vacuum cleaner, mop,
and rag
She refused their help, closed the door, and bent down to clean the food on the floor.
“Get out.” Benjamin suddenly said coldly.
shirley ignored ham and continued cleaning the mess on the floor.
“I told you to get out.” Benjamin’s voice sounded even more icy and laced with anger and annoyance.
This time, Sharley finally couldn’t take it anymore. She looked at him and asked calmly, “What are you so upset about? Shouldn’t

I be the one who’s angry? You wanted me to attend the dinner, and I agreed. So, why do you lookupset?”
She sounded helpless when she asked, “You’ve tested me so many times. What are you trying to prove?”
Shirley looked at Benjamin, who was giving off a cold vibe, and walked toward him step by step. She met his gaze without
flinching. “Do you really have so little faith in yourself?”
Then, he grabbed her delicate dan. His handsome features looked cold and sharp pwhen he said, “I don’t trust you. Your odd
behavior from earlier was enough to prove that you aten’t trustworthy,”
She smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck. “So, no matter how you test or humiliate me, I should just smile and please
you, right?”
“So, you call that humiliation?”||
Hertain scent walled into his nose. His expression remained cold as he grabbed her wrist tightly.
“Let the tell you, you’ll be constantly humiliated in the future, so you’d better toughen up,”
Benjamin showed no mercy. Stadey felt that her wrist was about to snap and the pain made her frown. She put up with it and
spat through clenched teeth, “If you mind that have feelings for Samuel, why did you make me attend the dinner tomorrow?”

Benjamin laughed coldly “You think too highly of yourself. I just don’t want a woman with ulterior motives lying next to me. The
thought of it disgusts me.” With that, he shook uff her wrist with disgust without paying attration to how pale she looked.
“Now, take your things and get lost.”
Benjamin had completely shattered Shiley’s pride.

She immediately picked up her purse and the lunchbox. She glared at film and said, “Since you’re so worried about having a
