Chapter 415 I Hope You Stop Here
Grace couldn't understand this at all. But she didn't have time to think more about it as a calm figure walked toward her down thecorridor.
Benjamin looked at Grace, who was standing next to Xander. His gaze darkened, and he clenched his fists.Beside him, Larry felt the murderous air Benjamin was exuding. He coughed lightly and said, "Ms. Lewis!"Grace raised her eyebrows and turned in surprise.
Then, she saw that Benjamin was standing some distance away behind her. She didn't know how long he had been there. Hiseyes were focused on the operating theater's doors, which were tightly shut.
"Grace, aren't you satisfied with how much the Quine family has fallen?"
Benjamin's tone was extremely unpleasant. He faced Grace, looking as if he was about to defend the Quine family.Grace's eyes narrowed. "Mr. Hawkins, are you here to defend the Quine family?”
"No!" Benjamin blurted out as he looked at Grace. "I just hope that you'll stop here."
Grace's lips curled scornfully. "| thought it was strange when you stopped me from investigating Jessica at Coronia University.Now you've appeared here again. Does this mean that you've always known who the fake Jessica is?"
Benjamin didn't shrink from the question. He answered directly, "Yes."
He added, "But Grace, | still want to ask you to trust me just this once. Stop your investigation. It won't do you any good to keeplooking into it. No matter who this Jessica is, | won't let her hurt you."novelbin
This was his promise to her.But Grace found his promise laughable. "Benjamin, don't you think that what you're saying is a joke?"
Benjamin turned sideways and looked away from her. Then, he said slowly, "Grace, | once promised someone that | would takecare of the Quine family. I've already broken that promise. So, no matter what you're going to do next, | hope that you won't hurtRichard.”
"Mr. Hawkins!" Larry called out to him quickly, trying to interrupt him.He knew that Benjamin cared a lot about Grace, but saying this would only hurt her and push her further away.
"Mr. Hawkins, I'm afraid using the word "hurt" would be inappropriate." Xander shielded Grace in his embrace and rebukedBenjamin harshly.
"We have never wanted to do anything to Mr. Quine Senior. Today's incident was a total accident."
“However ..." Xander paused, but he sounded confident.
