Chapter 1068


    "You jinx! Since I met you, I was sent to prison and am now at risk of being killed. I have the worst


    luck ever.


    "How I hope I’ll never see you again. Not even in my next life!"


    Marilyn remained silent in the face of Ken''s usations.


    Both she and Ken owed and hated each other.


    Jay gazed at Ken with a dark and profound gaze, questioning, "Who did this to you?"


    Ken answered grumpily, "I can’t say."


    He had received a threat from Grayson. If he said a word to Ben at all, then he would be skinned


    alive into a human stick.


    All color hadpletely drained from Marilyn''s face. Her soul had left her body from fright after


    seeing what happened to Ken.


    Tiger scurried over with his short legs. "Mommy."


    Marilyn held Tiger and covered his eyes with her hand, begging Jay. "Send him away, Ben. Don''t let


    him frighten our son."


    Jay nced at Marilyn with sinister and cold eyes. He felt conflicted by her words.


    Even so, he did not want an innocent child to be involved in their conflict, hence he said to the


    courier, "Send him back to where he came from."


    Without any hesitation, the courier wrapped Ken up again and pushed him out with his cart.


    Marilyn could hear Ken''s exasperated cry. "Marilyn, you need to stop being so selfish or you won''t


    end well."


    When the courier knocked on the package, Ken finally mmed up.


    Even though Ken was only here for only a brief moment, his presence had seemingly left a bomb in


    Marilyn''s heart. She felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.


    "Ben, who on earth did that to Ken? Will they do that t o me too?" Marilyn paced back and forth in


    the house, muttering to herself.


    Jay sat on the couch acting as though he had not heard the panic in her voice.


    Marilyn peeped at Jay several times, and when she realized that he no longer cared for her as


    much as he did before, she could not help but panic even more.


    "Maybe we should call the police, Ben. What if these gangsters treat me the same way? I''m


    scared..."


    When she noticed how indifferent Jay was, Marilyn restructured her words and said, "It''s okay if


    they hurt me, but what are we going to do if they hurt our son? "


    Jay held the fennel and said in a lukewarm tone, "A good conscience is a soft pillow."


    Marilyn,


    Jay picked up his coat from the couch and walked outside.


    Marilyn rushed up to him and embraced Jay tightly from behind. "Don''t go, Ben. I''m afraid. Please


    stay with me."


    Jay pushed her to the ground in an almost instinctive manner. "Don''t touch me,” he said with a livid


    expression.


    Marilyn was bathing in tears. She grabbed his leg and begged him. "I saved you back then, Ben.


    Can’t that be a reason for you to stay? Please?"


    Jay frowned and retracted his long legs.


    "You’re really foolish," Jay sneered, "If my guess is right, the person who injured Ken is probably my


    closest kin. You''ll only be in danger if you keep forcing me to stay with you."

    "But you can intercede for me, can’t you, Ben?" Marilyn said, crying for the moon.


    Jay replied, "Why should I intercede for you? You deceived me. You deserve punishment for what


    you did."


    Marilyn stared incredulously at him. The tenderness h e had shown her back then was now


    reced by


    indifference.


    This man could be both fire and ice.
