Chapter 454


    Benjamin burst out giggling. “We were just guessing.”


    “Stop making such guesses. It''s terrifying!” said Thalia while shaking her head as if she had


    encountered something horrible.


    “Why? Are you scared?” Benjamin looked at her.


    “Of course!”


    “But what are you scared of?”


    “I...” Thalia was at a loss for words. Right, what am I scared of? I don''t know, but I just think it''s


    terrifying! “Anyway, it''s just terrifying!”


    Benjamin scrutinized Dave quietly. “Actually, Mr. Dave is quite good-looking, and he''s rich. I think


    you can give him a chance...”


    “Are you crazy?”


    “What''s wrong?”


    “Which of our organizations do you think will agree to this? Darz or DX?”


    “This is your personal matter. Why do you need their agreements?”


    “I''m a member of Darz. Of course, I have to follow the rules of Darz!”


    “Darz doesn''t have such a rule that says that its member can''t fall in love with someone from


    DX, does it?”


    “There''s no such written rule, but everyone just knows it! DX is their nemesis. Darz will never


    allow such a thing to happen!”


    “If it happens, it happens. It doesn''t matter whether it''s allowed or not.”


    “But it''s not happening!”


    “At the end of the day, you just don''t love him!”


    “Yes, you finally said the truth!”


    Benjamin looked at her. “I just think it''s too difficult between you and Spencer. Maybe you won''t


    suffer so much if you change your target!”


    Thalia''s expression immediately turned stiff when Benjamin mentioned Spencer.


    However, sheter put on an indifferent face. “Says who? Listen, my life will be more miserable if I


    get together with Dave!”


    “There are two types of pain in this world. One is psychological pain, and the other is physical pain.


    If you can find someone who loves you as much as you love him, even if the world is against you,


    you won''t feel any pain as long as the two of you hold on to each other. But if your love is one-sided,


    even if the whole world supports you, you''ll still be in pain if he doesn''t love you!”


    Benjamin looked at her for a moment and continued, “Maybe Spencer likes you too, but his attitude


    is making you miserable. Thalia, I don''t think you should be treated like this. No matter what


    excuses he has, he shouldn''t treat you like this.”


    Thalia was dumbstruck by Benjamin''s words.

    She stared at him for a long time, not knowing how to respond.


    Even a child understands that. It''s impossible that Spencer doesn''t understand it. Perhaps he just


    doesn''t like me in the same way that I like him!


    Thalia suppressed her emotions and smiled. “What are you talking about? I''m over it now!”


    “Really?”


    “Yes!”


    “Stop deceiving yourself!”


    Thalia poked him with her finger again. “You were so gentle to me just now. Why did you change so


    quickly?”


    “I just feel sorry for you.”


    Thalia smiled. Of course, she understood. “I''m not deceiving myself. I just need some time. Don''t


    worry. I''ll be fine!”


    “The best way to heal from a broken rtionship is to start a new one! Maybe you''ll forget about him


    soon!”


    “With who? Do you want me to just grab a stranger on the street?”


    “There''s one right in front of you!”


    Thalia looked at Dave in front of her and shook her head. “I swear by my sixth sense, he doesn''t


    have any feelings for me!”


    “But the way he acts around you—”


    “Maybe he''s just a gentleman! That doesn''t mean that he has feelings for me. I can see it from his


    eyes!”


    “His eyes?”


    “When you like someone, you''ll look at her all the time despite yourself. Your eyes will sparkle


    whenever you see her, and you can''t help thinking about her. Do you see these on him?”


    Benjamin thought carefully for a moment. Other than the food, I can''t think of anything else...


    “I know you care about me, but I know what to do. Give me some time, and I''ll be all right!” said


    Thalia.


    Benjamin nodded.


    The two walked behind Dave while talking, and they soon arrived at a hidden ce.


    Seeing the car parked in front of him, Anthony and Benjamin immediately stepped forward to take a


    look. After confirming that it was Keh''s car, Anthony immediately looked around.


    Dave knew what Anthony was thinking. “I only saw the car when I came here just now, and I didn''t


    see your daddy. I searched around and found nothing still.”


    Anthony retracted his gaze and looked at him with doubts in his eyes.


    “If you don''t believe me, you can look around. I''ll wait for you right here!” said Dave.


    “Mr. Dave, I didn''t say I don''t believe you. I''m just thinking maybe Daddy was not around when you


    came over just now. But is there a possibility that he''s back now?”


    “You got a point.” Dave nodded and looked at him. “But ording to your daddy''s personality, do


    you think he will expose himself by leaving his car at such an obvious spot?”


    “He won''t, but maybe Daddy thinks that the most dangerous ce is the safest ce.”


    A conflicted look shed across Dave''s eyes.


    “Just wait for us here, Mr. Dave. We''ll look around.”


    “I''ll go with you.”


    Anthony thought for a moment and nodded.


    With that, they started to look around and even knocked on doors to look for Keh.


    Unfortunately, they found nothing.


    Dave''s expression remained indifferent and emotionless.


    As they returned to the car again, Anthony was a little upset.


    Dave looked at him. “Anthony, he''s J! He won''t let us find him so easily!”


    Despite knowing that what Dave said made sense, Anthony could not help feeling depressed.


    Nheless, he quickly regained hisposure and looked up at them. “It''s okay. Since Daddy is


    not showing up, we''ll find a way to make him show up!”


    Dave nodded in agreement.


    “Mr. Dave, have you really thought about it? Won''t you feel bad about the car?” asked Benjamin.


    “I think its sacrifice is worth it.”


    “Thank you, Mr. Dave!”


    Dave responded with a smile.


    Anthony looked at Thalia and suggested, “Do you want to do it?”


    Thalia was stunned. “Me? Why don''t you ask the owner of the car to do it?”


    “This car belongs to Mr. Dave. I think it''s too cruel to ask him to do it himself. You do it!” said


    Anthony.


    In fact, Thalia did not mind doing it. “I can do it, but I''m afraid someone will—”


    “I''ll do it!” Dave interjected, then turned to look at them. “Take a few steps back!”


    The three of them immediately stepped back.


    Dave stepped forward and looked at his car. Upon deliberation, he finally set the car on fire.


    Within seconds, the car was engulfed by the fire.
