Chapter 82 - 82: Thought Of Someone
Zach was shocked.
That aloof and arrogant Benson had changed!
When Juliana finished eating, Benson accompanied her to the courtyard.
There was a huge tree in the courtyard, which was century-old as the mansion.
Wolfy, the dog, was resting under the tree, next to his luxurious doghouse.
Juliana sat on a bench in the courtyard, looking up at Zach quietly without urging him on.
Benson came out with grapes and sat next to Juliana. He urged on Zach as he started to peel the grapes, "Come on, a man can afford to lose."
Zach didn't dwell on it. He was a man who could afford to lose, so he rolled up his sleeves and started climbing the tree.
He had been working out and climbing the tree was not difficult for him. He climbed up very easily.
When he came down, his face was flushed. Then he looked at Wolfy.
Zach held his breath for a moment before he barked, "Woof! Woof!"
After that, he ran away immediately. It was not that he felt humiliated.
He only felt that he was so wrong!
He had been proven wrong by the woman he despised the most.
Juliana watched as Zach was running even faster than a rabbit and asked Benson, "Is he trustworthy?"
Benson handed the peeled grapes to her and said, "I've known Zach since we were kids, and he studied medicine for me."
Back then, Zach had not wanted to be a doctor, but when Benson had started to develop a disease in high school, there was no available example or cure.
Therefore, Zach had changed his mind and studied medicine in order to cure Benson.
Juliana lowered her eyes. She thought of Wendy, who had also changed her mind for her when they filled out the intention for university.
She had been so touched back then that she tailored the script for Wendy to make her role a hit all over the world.
However...
Benson keenly felt Juliana's different vibe and asked her worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Juliana raised her eyes and smiled, "Nothing, I just thought of someone."
Benson frowned but didn't ask further questions.
Silence filled the air.
Although they did not speak, the atmosphere was harmonious.
Juliana looked up and asked Benson, "Do you forget what happened after each attack?"
Benson, "Yes."
Juliana rested her cheek on one hand and looked at Benson, "What were you thinking about when you had the attack?"
Benson still shook his head, "I don't know. I have no memory of it."
Juliana, "Your first attack was at the age of 15. Did anything special happen at that time?"
Juliana had to treat Benson, so naturally she had learned about the history of his attacks.
Before the age of fifteen, Benson had been a beautiful teenager and had not been as violent and cold as he was now.
He had been like every teenager, full of love for life and as bright as sunshine.
Fifteen years old, he had still been a child.
Benson's first attack had happened at school, when he had hit his classmate without warning and had been unable to speak but only able to roar like a wild animal.
He had hit anyone who came near him.
From then on, Benson, who had been excellent in the eyes of others, became the madman everyone feared!
Philip came out of the living room and got nervous when he heard Juliana ask this question.
The year of fifteen was a scar of Benson that could not be touched!
Benson paused and spoke coldly, "Half an hour before the attack, a girl I had rejected jumped off a building."
Juliana looked at him, "Was it related to the girl?"
Benson shook his head, "I don't know. She died anyway."
Until now, everyone had been saying that he had killed that girl.
That was how the word got out about Benson, who killed people without blinking his eyes.
And he refused any girl's approach or liking ever since!
