After a two-second pause, the corners of Benjamin Johnson’s slightly upturned mouth gradually relaxed.
Looking at Jay Bennett, Benjamin Johnson candidly admitted, “Yes, it’s her!”
Suddenly, Jay Bennett found everything uninteresting, and quite ridiculous.
Benjamin Johnson was seemingly head over heels for Olivia Jenkins, was this woman so enchanting?
What was so good about her?
The woman was already someone else’s wife, yet Benjamin seemed entranced just like a hypnotized man. That woman had no sense of propriety, she truly had some nerve!
Benjamin Johnson must not fall for that vixen!
After a period of silence, Jay Bennett forced a smile onto her face, and asked in a somewhat stiff voice, “Do you think you can become her friend? Doesn’t she have any misgivings?”
Benjamin Johnson lowered his eyes slightly, pursing his lips. He first paid via a QR code and ordered two cups of freshly squeezed sugarcane juice, handing one to Jay Bennett.
After taking a sip of the sugarcane juice, Benjamin Johnson blandly began, “She is an extraordinary woman. It seems those who don’t understand her, greatly misinterpret her. Maybe it has something to do with her persona. It must be because she is so remarkable and dazzling, it’s hard for her not to hurt the eyes and hearts of others.”
Displeased, Jay Bennett furrowed her brow softly, but did not reveal her feelings, “You seem to understand her very well, and your evaluation of her is very high. Benjamin, don’t forget that she is Daniel’s wife. I hope you’re not getting close to her as a ploy to deal with Daniel. I hope you can be rational and not get tangled up in the past anymore.”
Benjamin Johnson mocked himself, “I’ve gradually come to terms with everything. As long as Daniel does not provoke me, I will not provoke him. Olivia Jenkins is wonderful, she deserves praise.”
She did not take even a single sip of the sugarcane juice Benjamin Johnson offered her. She didn’t want to consume anything that woman liked.
“Is this another place she brought you to?”
“Yes! The roasted sweet potatoes smell so good. Do you want some?”
Jay Bennett shook her head, “I’m still full.”
Benjamin Johnson ordered one and began to eat while strolling through the streets.
And despite breaking his image, Benjamin Johnson thoroughly enjoyed his food.
Jay Bennett frowned, an inexplicable surge of anger rising in her, which she was desperately trying to suppress.
Looking at Jay Bennett, Benjamin Johnson smiled and asked, “Do you think I eat in a sloppy manner? Everyone on this street eats like this. Everyone is very casual. There’s no need to put on a show here. No need to be pretentious or worry about being improper because no one here cares about these things. It’s a very relaxing feeling.”
“You gave me quite a shock tonight. I never expected that when you and she were hanging out, you were so happy and free! You tonight, and you in my memories, are different.”
“People have to learn to let go. Right now, I truly feel much more relaxed. Jay Bennett, aren’t you going to drink your sugarcane juice?”
Jay Bennett’s eyes flashed for a moment, concealing her feelings of distaste, “The sugarcane juice is cold. I won’t drink it, I’m afraid it will give me a stomachache.”
“I’ll get you some hot pear soup instead.”
“Alright!”
Benjamin Johnson had already finished his cup of sugarcane juice. Now, he took Jay Bennett’s cup and took a sip without hesitation.
He walked up to a small stall and ordered a cup of hot pear soup for Jay Bennett.
“Thank you! You like baked sweet potatoes? You’ve never mentioned it before.”
“Eating baked sweet potatoes this way was introduced to me by Olivia Jenkins. Thanks to her, I tasted delicious sweet potatoes for the first time. I found them quite tasty, so I bought them a few times afterwards. It was also her who brought me here. Only then did I realize that Serene City has so many flavorful snacks, and they are actually quite delicious.”
All the way, all Jay Bennett heard was Benjamin Johnson speaking about Olivia Jenkins, which made her feel very uncomfortable.
