    Janie continued, “The child and I will burden you with responsibilities that will haunt you for a lifetime,


    making you lose your freedom.”


    Benjamin remained quiet. While he might be able to love the child, he wasn’t sure about Janie.


    Benjamin didn’t know if he could ever love her in the future. He fell for Emma five years ago, and his


    heart was still upied by her. It wasn’t his fault; he couldn’t help it.


    “I don’t want your pity, Benjamin,” Janie’s eyes were icy. “I will live well and raise my child alone. He


    has nothing to do with you, so don’t feel sorry for him.”


    Benjamin was speechless and he was puzzled about what he could do tofort her.


    “I made my apology. I hope you can find Emma soon so that I can have peace of mind,” Janie headed


    towards the door.


    “Janie!” Benjamin reached out to grab her wrist, but she coldly shook him off.


    Janie walked towards the door without looking back, but Eric blocked her way just as she was about to


    open it. “You can’t just act recklessly, Janie. You’re carrying a child, and you don’t have any other


    rtives,” Benjamin reminded her. Janie remained silent.


    “Perfect timing,” Benjamin told Eric. “Take her to Glenbrook and let her stay there peacefully.”


    “Understood, Mr. Benjamin,” Eric responded.


    “Are you trying to imprison me, Benjamin?” Janie asked, looking back at him.


    “I just want you to calm down,” Benjamin growled. “Please don’t cause any more trouble. I’m too busy


    to deal with it!”


    “If you’re determined to leave, could you at least wait until we find Emma? Do you not care about


    Emma’s safety at all? Are youpletely indifferent? Your behavior makes me suspect that you had


    something to do with Emma’s disappearance, Janie.”


    “What kind of ridiculous usation is that?” Janie snapped, “Of course, I’m worried about Emma. But


    what can I do?”


    “I don’t need you to do anything,” Benjamin said firmly, “I just need you to stay put, for the sake of your


    safety, for the safety of the baby, and for finding Emma. Please don’t cause any more trouble.”


    Janie reluctantly nodded her head. Perhaps it would be better to wait until there was news of Emmeline


    before trying to leave. Otherwise, she would just be acting selfishly. “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”


    “Eric,” Benjamin said, “Take Ms. Janie to Glenbrook and let Yvonne take good care of her.”


    “Yes, Mr. Benjamin.”


    As Janie left with Eric, Benjamin sank into his chair and shut his eyes to rest. He was exhausted. But


    just then, his phone buzzed in his pocket. Weary, he fished it out and nced at the caller ID. It was


    Sam. “Hey, Sam,” Benjamin answered, his voice a little strained. “What’s going on?”


    Sam called Benjamin, saying, “It’s Mr. Adelmar! Why are you hounding him with an olddy?”


    Benjamin was confused, “What kind of olddy?”


    “Alondra, Ms. Emmeline”s stepmother,” Sam exined.


    “Ah, yes,” Benjamin recalled. He had directed Alondra to the Nightfall cafe to meet Adelmar for dinner.


    Realizing his forgetfulness, Benjamin pped his forehead and asked Sam, “What’s going on with her


    now?”


    “You’d bettere and take a look,” Sam informed Benjamin that Adelmar had a headache and he


    shoulde to take a look.


    Benjamin agreed and headed to the Nightfall cafe. However, when he arrived and pushed open the


    ss door, he didn’t see Alondra or Adelmar. Confused, he asked Sam, “Didn’t you say that Alondra


    came over? Where is she? And where is Mr. Adelmar?”


    Sam pointed upstairs, “Just go upstairs and see. It’s very lively up there!”


    Benjamin climbed the stairs with curiosity. As soon as he reached the second floor, he heard Alondra’s


    voice from the tform, “Mr. Adelmar, do you think my figure is beautiful?”Benjamin was taken aback


    and wondered what was happening.
