Chapter 219 - 225 Celebration
Benson looked down at Juliana in confusion.
Juliana said to Billy, "Well, I'm going home. You go celebrate with them."
Billy sighed, a little frustrated, "Juliana, aren't you coming along to celebrate? It's a big celebration."
Juliana wanted to refuse because she knew Benson wouldn't go.
Billy glanced at Benson and quickly said, "You can bring your husband with you. We are just going to eat something and have a drink. Guys don't know Juliana's husband yet."
Juliana said, "No, Benson doesn't like..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Benson interrupted her, "Since it's a celebration, Jill should go."
Juliana looked up at Benson in surprise, "You don't..."
He didn't like crowds of people, did he?
Benson took Juliana's hand and said, "Let's go."
Juliana agreed and followed Benson obediently.
Billy looked at the two with their fingers interlocked and burped. He hadn't even had drank anything but he was already full.
Juliana had just gotten into Benson's car when a tall figure appeared in the special aisle at the auditorium.
The man stared in their direction for a while before withdrawing his gaze and leaving.
Originally, Billy had planned to have a barbecue and drink beer.
But with Benson here, Billy changed the plan and booked a small restaurant.
He did not go to the high-end restaurant because it was too formal.
Benson saw that although the private box was a bit small, it was neat and clean.
Before he entered the box, Juliana had let Billy spray the perfume she had made in advance.
Thus Benson didn't care much about it. Besides, he was there to meet Juliana's friends.
Juliana took the dishes and sterilized them in hot water and said to Benson, "Let's stay for a while and then go home."
Benson took the job from her and said, "There's no rush. You can do as you please."
He wanted to get to know the real her and her circle of friends.
He would not confine her, nor suppress her growth, nor make her his caged bird.
It wasn't long before Billy came over with the others.
Seeing Juliana without her helmet, everyone was once again stunned.
"It turns out that Juliana looks so pretty without the heavy makeup."
Billy coughed heavily for fear that Benson would be jealous and then introduced to them, "This is Juliana's husband, Benson Leach."
The three men looked at Benson and greeted him respectfully, "Hi, Benson!"
It was okay for them to call Juliana's husband by his first name, right?
So, this was Benson, not at all ugly nor crazy, and he was a good match for Juliana.
But his aura was so powerful, and Juliana was able to suppress it as expected!
Benson smiled in a good mood and said, "I came with Jill. Please enjoy yourselves."
At first, Billy and the others were a little reserved because of Benson.
However, when they saw that Benson was only concentrating on peeling shrimps for Juliana and was not that intimidating, they relaxed a lot.
And Benson showed consideration for Juliana and had a drink with them, but did not let Juliana drink a single drop.
Billy drank a little too much and there was a flush on his cheeks.
He raised his glass and gave Benson a toast, "Benson, why don't you eat anything? Is there nothing you like to eat? What do you like?"
Benson turned his head and looked at Juliana, then smiled lightly, "I don't have any hobbies except for eating."
Juliana: ???
Did he mean "eating" her?
