Alessandra in a taxi.

Emmanuel asked Alessandra when she emerged from

Benny’s residential area.

asked Benny for a loan. Moreover, she was hiding the

fact that she was rejected in order for him not to

resent his uncle.

Benny was. Despite the latter’s wealth, he had never

fancied every time they dropped by Emmanuel’s home

for a visit.
