Chapter 90 Lyla Is Not Kind Here Actually, Ben wanted to calm her down, but Jessica’s hostility irritated him. He was going to let her cool off a bit before calming her down, but Camila barged in halfway through. Now he was humiliated, and it would be hard to get Jessica back. If Jessica canceled the marriage, his dad and aunt would kill him. As he worried himself over this matter, Lyla approached him and acted coy. “What should we do, Ben? Will Camila tell everyone about this?” Ben’s face fell. “So what? We did nothing anyway!” he said impatiently. Lyla thought about it and nodded. Ben was right, for they didn’t do anything in public. “You know that woman?” Ben asked. At the mention of Camila, disdain showed on Lyla’s face. “She’s my half-sister. Seven years ago, she slept with a beggar after she got drunk, and she was pregnant with a b*stard. My dad thinks she’s a disgrace, so he sent her overseas. She only came back recently, but for some reason, I bump into her everywhere I go.” Ben cupped her chin and snorted. “Does she have a grudge against you?” Lyla leaned against him and raised her chin. “Not openly.” “So she does hold a grudge against you.” “Well, I arranged that beggar to sleep with her that night.” Ben bit her lip. “I knew it. You’re naughty.” Lyla felt a stab of pain from her lip, and she wanted to get back at Ben, but he pushed her away. “Don’t mess around. I have to go to the Smith Residence after this.” “And I don’t have to go home? Look at what you did. How should I explain this?” She glared at him.
Ben grinned. “Just say it’s because you were craving for some meat.” Lyla rolled her eyes. “And you say I’m naughty. Well, you’re the big bad here.” “We’re the same, actually.” Leaning forward, he kissed her again. “Go home. I have to go back now, or it will be bad if Jessica tells on me first.” Lyla was an understanding woman, at least in affairs. She knew when she should make her move and when to retreat. This relationship with Ben would go nowhere, and she knew it. All she wanted was to get the praises and passion that was lost in her relationship with Miles, so she didn’t mind this. “Call me when you can.” She went out of the car, then Ben’s car drove toward the Smith Residence. When Silas and Camila came down, they saw Jessica sitting on the lounge’s sofa. “Why are you still here?” Camila was surprised. Jessica came over, smiling. “I’ve been waiting for you.” “Do you need anything?” Camila frowned. “I’ll beText property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
waiting for you in the car,” Silas said calmly. That was directed toward Camila, so she grunted. She wanted to refuse, but when she remembered he had something to tell her, Camila didn’t say anything else. Jessica stared at Silas. “What’s your relationship with him?”. “I treated his grandfather’s illness,” replied Camila. “Just that?” Jessica asked. “Yeah. What else do you think it is?” Camila frowned. : “That’s Silas Nolan. The Silas Nolan. I’ve never heard of him waiting for anyone. It’s always the other way around,” exclaimed Jessica. Camila was speechless. “Yeah, because you want to talk to me. What do you need?”
