Chapter 125 - 125: Provocative
Juliana's gaze involuntarily fell on his lips and she remembered the first time he had kissed her after taking his medicine by watching his movements.
Just thinking about this, Juliana's face burned again.
She said, "Don't be willful. Take your medicine quickly. There are candies in the luggage that I prepared for you."
Benson's illness had changed and he needed daily medication to keep it down.
Otherwise, he would be manic and violent.
He looked at Juliana as he said, "Actually, I feel much better now."
He had just returned and felt like he was on the verge of going ballistic.
When Juliana had not answered the phone, his mania and violence had been a little overwhelmed.
However, once he saw Juliana, it was like a gentle spring breeze brushed by, smoothing out all his bad moods.
Juliana frowned, "Go on."
Benson looked at her with a smile, then took out his medicine from his suitcase. He also found a small jar of candies, packed like crystal.
Benson felt sweet to the heart just by looking at it.
Benson took the phone and looked at Juliana, smiling lightly, "Mrs. Leach, it's very sweet of you."
Juliana blushed at the compliment, "Take your medicine quickly. I'll keep an eye on you."
Benson responded and took the pill with mineral water.
His mouth was filled with bitterness, but he quickly put a piece of candy into his mouth.
The sweetness of the candy instantly watered down the bitterness of the medicine.
Benson narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Juliana, "Do you have any candy there?"
Juliana looked at him with confusion and nodded, "Yes, I bought a large jar of it."
When Benson was fine, he only needed to take his medicine on time.
But if he had an attack, he would have to take the specific medicine, which was even bitterer than this one, so Juliana had bought a lot of candies.
Benson said, "Pick one of the strawberry flavored ones and eat it."
Juliana looked at Benson suspiciously but still went to get the candy cane.
She stripped the candy wrappers from several candies before she saw a pink one, which was strawberry flavored.
She ate the candy and looked at Benson, "I ate it."
Benson's deep eyes were smiling, "Well, they are both strawberry flavored."
He meant it was like they were kissing.
Although Benson did not say it, Juliana's face flushed and burned inexplicably when Benson looked at her like this.
Seeing that Benson was in a much better mood, Juliana said, "If all is well, I'll hang up now, and you should get some rest."
Benson hurriedly said, "Don't hang up the phone. I want to look at you and listen to your voice."
Juliana was helpless.
Benson's face remained serious, "Only in this way can I be eased and get some sleep."
Juliana saw that Benson looked tired with bloodshot eyes, even though he had shaved.
She frowned, "You haven't slept today?"
Benson answered, "I couldn't sleep."
So, he had not slept for two days and a night, no wonder he looked so tired.
Juliana frowned even deeper as she said, "Go take a shower then. I'll dry my hair too. And then we can go on with the video call."
Benson did not agree, "I'll take a shower, but I can't hang up the video call."
Juliana was speechless, "You can't take a shower and make the video call at the same time."
Benson looked serious, "I can."
Juliana refused, blushing, "I don't want to!"
Benson, "What if you don't answer my video call after we hang up?"
Juliana, "I will answer."
Benson, "I don't believe it. I have just called you eight times before you answered!"
Juliana explained, "I was in the shower and my phone was outside the bathroom."
Benson put the phone down and started unbuttoning his shirt, "I'm not hanging up anyway."
Juliana watched as Benson actually undressed in front of the camera.
She was shocked!
He was so provocative!
