Miss Mystery Got Busted

Chapter 42: Stay with me

Juliana covered her head with a pillow and pretended she didn't hear it, but Benson's voice came in like

a magic sound.

Benson coaxed her with a lowered voice, "Let me in first, then punish me, hmm?"

Juliana heard his last word and the blush that had faded rose to her cheeks again.

Just because when he kissed her in the car, he made such a sound, low, husky, and very titillating...

Juliana felt her face burn again, then quickly went straight into the bathroom, and closed the door with

a bang, shutting the sound from outside completely.

Benson: ...

It seemed that she was not going to open the door.

They had just gotten married and he got shut out!

Old Mr. Leach vaguely heard the noise, looked up to the second floor, and asked with concern, "What's

going on?"

Benson stood up straight, hands in his pockets, replied calmly, "Nothing. I let Jill sleep first. I have to

work in the study, so I can't stay with her tonight."

Old Mr. Leach said with a frown, "You're just married. Don't leave Jill alone. Grandpa won't allow you to

hurt her."

Benson looked at the closed door, answered without batting an eyelid, and then went to the study.

He did not look strange at all.

Old Mr. Leach did not notice anything wrong. After all, he thought that no woman would shut his

grandson out like that.

However, Juliana was such an exception.

Benson went to the study, sat in front of the computer, and started working on his business. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

But...

The work that had kept him peaceful in the past made him irritable at the moment. He could read

nothing.

His mind was full of Juliana, thinking of the refreshing medicinal scent of her body and the sweet taste

of her mouth...

Benson worked for half an hour enduring his restlessness and then sent a message to Juliana.

Juliana came out of the shower and picked up her phone, just as Benson's message popped up.

[Benson: Don't be angry. Next time I'll be careful not to hurt you even with your permission, okay?]

Juliana took a look at it. How did he have the nerve to mention it?

Juliana was ashamed and annoyed. She turned off her phone and turned off the light to sleep, simply

ignoring Benson.

The next day, Juliana still got up very early to practice martial arts.

But as soon as she opened the door, she was blocked by Benson's tall figure.

Benson looked down at her and said in a hoarse voice, "Jill."

Juliana looked up at Benson and saw that he was blue under the eyes, with stubble growing on his

chin, and his eyes were red and bloodshot as if he hadn't slept all night.

After a sleep, Juliana's anger was long gone.

At this moment, looking at Benson's haggard appearance, she frowned, "You haven't slept all night?"

The night they had first met, Benson had looked even more exhausted than now. In the past two days,

Benson had finally regained some energy, but now it was all gone.

Benson answered in a low voice.

He had trouble falling asleep, and once he did, he had a series of nightmares.

The only way he could fall asleep easier and have a dream-free night was to hold Juliana during the

past two days.

Juliana stepped aside, "Go inside and sleep."

Benson didn't move but stared straight at her, "Stay with me."

Juliana was going to refuse, but looking at Benson's exhausted look as if he could break out in a manic

episode at any time, she nodded, "Okay."

In Benson's current physical condition, one attack of illness would be one damage to his body.

Before she prepared the antidote, she must try not to let him fall ill.

As soon as they lay on the bed, Benson held Juliana tightly in his arms, smelled her fresh medicinal

scent, and the mania in his body was gradually soothed.

But another kind of mania was burning up...
