CHAPTER 429

  BENEDICT&THEA

  THEA

  When the car stopped, we reached to a private building which was a house. It wasn't just an ordinary house, but a very huge one instead. It was eerily quiet and my eyes were glued on the all-glass mansion.

  Wow. I said breathlessly as soon as Ben opened the passenger seat's door and helped me out.

  "Your new home?" I asked him.

  He nods subtly. "I bought it as soon as it was for sale."

  A house.

  A new house.

  I gasped inwardly. "It means you're gonna be living here in Seattle for a long time?"

  Ben just stared at me for 5 solid seconds and I dont know what that look on his eyes means but I already know the answer to my question.

  "I bought it in case I need to come here again in Seattle." He answers.

  I exhaled with relief.

  "I'm still gonna be living in London. But I'm a busier man now." He adds.

  The skin on my forehead folds. "What does that mean?"

  He smiles subtly and squeezes my hand.
