Ambush of the Quadruplets: Stay Away From This Woman

Chapter 1024 Looks Like She Has No Desire to Live

"Give it up already!" Sonia's face darkened as she spoke to Ysabel without lifting her gaze. "Let's go!"

Ysabel looked at Benjamin, gathering her courage to ask him, "Mr. Benjamin, may I invite you for dinner?"

Benjamin kept his eyes straight ahead, refusing to acknowledge her or respond. It was as if he hadn't seen or heard anything.

Before Ysabel could say anything else, Eric stepped in, blocking her path. He spoke coldly, "Have some common sense, will you?"

Ysabel felt a twinge in her nose and could only dejectedly hurry after Sonia.

"She's such an infatuated fool," Emmeline remarked, watching Ysabel's retreating figure.

"More than just a fool," Benjamin sneered. "She's downright insane! I have no idea how Jonathan indulged her like this!"

"In that case, just ignore her," Emmeline suggested. "Women like her will take advantage of any kindness and turn it against you!"

"If she hadn't climbed to the top of Adelmar that day, let her jump or die for all I care!" Benjamin exclaimed dismissively.

"Saving a life is of boundless beneficence," Abel chimed in. "You did nothing wrong; it's just annoying how women get entangled with you!"

"Who doesn't say that?" Benjamin muttered under his breath.

"Hubby," Emmeline turned to Abel and asked, "What if Little Flower clings to you?"

Abel squinted his eyes and scoffed, "Looks like she has no desire to live?"

"Just like this Ysabel," Benjamin remarked. "If she dares to provoke me again, I'll have her sent straight to the mental asylum!"

"I support that!" Abel chimed in. "If you don't nod your head, they won't release her from the hospital!"

Emmeline sucked her teeth on the side and said, "You two are so harsh!"

Though she said that, she secretly supported them!

Eric and Luca gathered up the cushions and mineral water, and everyone headed back to the city.

The bodyguard took the motorcycle back to the Nightfall Cafe garage, while Emmeline and Abel went straight back to the Precipice.

Benjamin stayed at Adelmar for a while before returning to Glenbrook.

He contemplated giving Janie a call.

After dinner, he took a shower and changed into a white linen robe. Benjamin half-lounged on the large bed.

Earlier in the afternoon, Ms. Halliwell managed to get him a new mobile SIM card.

He dialed Janie's number using the new one.

The phone rang once, but no one picked up.

Frowning, Benjamin mustered his patience and dialed again.

This time, someone answered on the other end.

During the first call, Janie assumed it was the wrong number from a stranger.

But on the second call, she worried that something might be wrong, so she answered.

"Who's calling?" Benjamin heard a delicate and serene voice in his ear, amidst a backdrop of bustling noise.

He furrowed his brow slightly.

Was Janie still outside?

Glancing at the time, he realized it wasn't late at all, only half-past eight.

It was he who had taken the shower early tonight.

"It's me," Benjamin said in a low voice, "Benjamin."
