Chapter 553 Cash or Credit


    Both of them turned at the sound, only to see amotion near the stage area as a crowd


    swarmed forward.


    Shocked, Grace exchanged a nce with Benjamin before they both rushed toward themotion.


    "Henry has fallen into the water!" a staff member cried.


    The card game inside stopped as Matthew and Esme rushed out simultaneously.


    Benjamin grabbed a staff member. "What happened?"


    "Just now, Henry was feeding the fish by theke. I turned away for a moment, and he fell in!"


    Henry was struggling in the water, crying, "Help! Help!"


    Benjamin narrowed his eyes. Then, he jumped in without hesitation.


    Grace barely had any time to stop him. He was a swimmer, but theke was deep and dangerous.


    "Benjamin!"


    Benjamin struggled toward Henry. He grabbed Henry''s hand and lifted him so his head was above


    the water. "Don''t be afraid. I''m here."


    Henry gasped for air.


    Meanwhile, Matthew was frantic on the shore. "Hurry!"


    Thankfully, they weren''t far from the shore. Benjamin soon led Henry to safety, and the staff


    members immediately wrapped him in towels.


    Matthew embraced Henry and asked, "Are you alright?" Then, he turned to the staff members. "Call


    the doctor, quick!"


    Esme was pale. "Thank you, Mr. Hawkins."


    Benjamin was shirtless, leaving his bulky muscles on disy. He didn''t shiver despite the chilly


    winter air. He was oozing sex appeal.


    "Don''t mention it. Check if Henry''s alright."


    Matthew had already rushed Henry inside, so Esme quickly followed after them.


    A staff member handed Benjamin a towel. Just then, Grace walked up to him. "You dared to jump


    into such deep water."


    Benjamin wiped his hair with the towel and said, "I''m not one to stand by and watch someone die."


    Grace pursed her lips. Benjamin was indeed one in a million. Otherwise, she wouldn''t have been so


    smitten with him for years.


    "Come inside. It''s cold out here."


    Benjamin nced around and said, "People will be swarming around to thank meter. I''m not


    comfortable with that. I''d rather leave."

    Grace understood. "Then, get in the car."


    Before she could say more, they were in Benjamin''s car. Strangely, the driver wasn''t there. Grace


    turned the heater on and drove for a while.


    They passed a men''s clothing store.


    "What''s your size?"


    Benjamin looked at her and said, "Don''t you know my size the best?"


    Grace fell silent. Before she got out of the car, she remarked snarkily, "You''re shameless."


    Ten minutester, Grace returned with new clothes and tossed them at Benjamin. "That''ll be 500


    dors. Would you like to pay me in cash or by credit transfer?"


    The pair of trousers and a coat were all the right size.


    Benjamin was surprised. "It fits me. You really do know my size."


    Grace thought he was out of his mind. She repeated, "Cash or credit?"


    It wasn''t about the money. She was only being like this because it was Benjamin. Spending even a


    penny on him felt like a loss.


    Benjamin took his phone out and said, "You''ve blocked me. I can''t transfer the money to you."


    Grace almost lost her temper. She unblocked him. After a moment, her phone chimed with a


    notification for a transfer of one thousand dors.


    Grace coldly muttered, "I never realized before that you loved charity so much."


    Benjamin calmly replied, "I never do charity. I do everything for a reason."


    Grace looked at him and said, "Including saving Henry. You''re looking to gain favor from Matthew."


    Benjamin didn''t say anything, which meant he agreed. His domineering nature made Grace


    ufortable.


    Benjamin changed the subject. "Byte Technologies was unstable, and I thought of handling it for


    you. That''s why I did it."


    After all the twists and turns, the conversation had returned to this topic once more.
