"Isn't it yours?" Jusaid without hesitation. "You always get a good salary and bonuses. I've never shortchanged either of you." "Thank you then,” Benjamin replied.

He emerged from the neighboring private room, his arm casually slung around a man's shoulder as they chatted and laughed. Seeing Eileen, he released his friend's shoulder and turned to answer the call.
"I have to take care of something at the studio. You go ahead and start dinner without me. Ker what my mother said... How about you head back to your room? I'll bring you something to eat when I'm done." Chapter 1133 Tip: You can use left, right keyboard keys to browse between chapters.
