Chapter 137
A desire could be wings and help a person fly or be a rope that binds one’s soul. Both kinds
were just part of the game that time yed on every person in order to test the waves of their heart to
see what they would be when they hit the shore.
It would only take one rogue cloud to turn a bright full moon night into darkness that could make one
doubt everything including themselves. Such a situation knocked hard on Jane’s life, and she drove to
her home as fast as ever. Along the way, all her goals and priorities of life felt worthless at the moment
from the thought of Reba being the dark cloud that woulde between her and her moon. Every
passing second shook the depths of her heart, and her chest hurt like never before.
At the same time, Benjamin was walking alone on the street, thinking about his father and his people that
he left behind and ran away. Even though Alfred and Shadow were in contact today, he still felt guilty.
Being away from his n made him feel sour, and living in the Sterling vi surrounded by nothing but
sourness didn’t help his case either.
He had already fixed his mind that he would stick with his wife, but could he live away from his n for
the rest of his life? He wasn’t 100% sure, and he felt gutted because of it.
But what he was sure about was that he wanted to bring Reba out of the Sterling vi because he felt
it was impossible to live together with the inws who covered their hypocrisy and shamelessness with
thorns and thistles and attacked him for every little thing. They treated him worse than the dogs in their
vi, yet one of them was a big-time producer, and another was a famous actress both of whom were
respected for their sess and were branded as good people with bright, colorful hearts. The reality,
however, couldn’t be farther from the truth.
Benjamin swallowed his emotions and kept walking. The posters, banners, and pamphlets of the El Man
movie were everywhere. Even the TVs at bus stops and tram stations kept ying the El Man’s trailer
and other promotional content. One could easily tell that Jacob was going all out with the promotions.
“There’s so much drama going on in my life already,” Benjamin thought. “I don’t want to go to a theater
and see more drama.”
Benjamin didn’t care about the movie, but he wondered if he could see it together with Reba. Would
she choose to watch the film with him instead of her family? Again, he wasn’t
as her family, after all. She could have easily live in a separate house, but she still chose to live in the
Sterling vi probably because she still loved her parents and siblings despite all the ups and downs she
had been through.
“The movie is releasing tomorrow…” Benjamin muttered under his breath, hoping his wife would give him
a call.
At Jane’s apartment. “Jane.” Reba entered Jane’s room. “I should tell you…”
She expected Jane to be there, but Donovan was inside alone, standing in a loosely wrapped towel,
having just had a long bath. After seeing Reba, the towel covering Donovan’s private parts
‘somehow’ dropped to the floor.

Reba’s jaw dropped very low for a second. Her purse slipped down her forearm and fell. The sound
of her purse hitting the floor brought her back to her senses quickly. Donovan was staring right at her, but
his hand reached for hisid penis, widening her eyes. He smirked, expecting her to step forward and
reach for his prized possession. However, she turned and ran out of the room like a frantic little doe.
Donovan found it difficult to process what just happened. “Did she feel intimidated by the size? But I
didn’t even get hard.” He came up to the door and picked up her purse, brought it closer to his nose and
sniffed it deeply. “Mhm… wonderful. Her scent is refreshing.
Meanwhile, Reba didn’t stop until she exited the apartment and got into her Porsche. It took her
fifteen seconds to get her breathing back under control. She knew she left her purse in Jane’s bedroom,
but she didn’t want to go back. At least not now when the image of naked Donovan still kept ying in
her mind, even though she resisted.
Nevertheless, her body grew hot in the process.
Her lips squeezed together in frustration as she fought back the feelings her flesh kept
stirring. “It’s not your first time seeing a dick. Control yourself. Reba. How can you get horny from
seeing that bastard’s naked body?” Knock. Knock.
Her car door was knocked twice, startling her. She looked to her left. Donovan was standing outside in
his towel, holding her purse in his hand. His athletic physique fully fitted the car window. Such was his
stature. He appeared much bigger from her position, and all the veins in his body were so thick and big it
would be impossible for them to go unnoticed. She swallowed her breath. Her fingers touched her throat.
Her chest visibly expanded and contracted as her eyesy upon the extremely masculine physique of
Donovan. “Open the door,” his voice was loud enough it managed to barely reach her ears. Some part of
her warned that things would go terribly wrong if she were to open that door. All she had to do was just
turn the car key and press the elerator, but the faint whispers in her ears prompted her to take the
easy way out.
As though responding to the desires of her flesh, her hand reached out for the door. Seeing her reaching
for the door, a corner of Donovan’s lips curled up ever so slightly.
A ck benz stopped not far from them.
Jane stepped out and saw the Porsche and also Donovan standing in towel and giving what seemed like
a woman’s purse to Reba. Jane’s face grew pale. Her feet moved backward, and she hit the half-
opened car door. The door shut, but she moved back a few more steps and got behind the car. Her chest
was gripped by immense pain. Her back tightly pressed against the car, but her knees felt too powerless
to stand. Her face turned red as she fought her tears, but she couldn’tst longer than three seconds and
sobbed her heart out as all her beliefs were broken this instant.
