Chapter 137
CHAPTER 137
A desire could become wings and help a person fly or become a rope that binds one’s soul. Both kinds were just part of the
game that time played on every person in order to test the waves of their heart to see what they would become 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 Rebecca being the dark cloud that would come
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 clan made him feel sour, and
living in the Sterling villa 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 clan 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 Rebecca out of the Sterling villa because he felt it was impossible to live
together with the in-laws 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 villa, yet one of them was a big-time producer, and another was a
famous actress both of whom were respected for their success 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 playing 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 Rebecca. 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 villa 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.” Rebecca 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 Rebecca, the towel covering Donovan’s private parts ‘somehow’ dropped to the floor.
Rebecca’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 his flaccid 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, Rebecca 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 playing 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. Rebecca. 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 eyes lay 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
accelerator, 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 black 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
Rebecca. 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’t last longer than three
seconds and sobbed her heart out as all her beliefs were broken this instant.
