Chapter 78
She didn’t want to stay in the Yorks at all. He had forced her to jump into the trap step by step.
If she hadn’t returned to Los Angeles so early, she wouldn’t have been slapped in the face by James today!
More importantly, he was so sure that it wasn’t Samuel’s fault, which made Elizabeth feel extremely uneasy.
He had never seen Samuel before. How could he be so sure? Did this naughty child know what kind of person his father was?
In the past four years, she had been both a father and a mother. During the day, she had to work hard. She had to organize classes late at night and occasionally had to shoot walk–on roles. In order to earn living expenses, she had even jumped from the second floor with her real body. At that time, she had almost sprained her leg.
However, Elizabeth didn’t feel tired at all because the money could buy medicine for Ben, who had a fever.
“Benson.” Elizabeth sniffled with difficulty and gulped down another mouthful of wine. “Do you know that I don’t want to get back together with your father at all? He’s just a pile of sh it. I think it stinks when he’s sent me to bed!”
Benson was speechless.
Henry was speechless.
Samuel, who had returned to Beverly Hills to read some documents, felt that something was wrong. He felt uncomfortable all over, but he couldn’t tell what exactly.
Seeing that the bottle of wine was almost empty, Henry walked up to Elizabeth and persuaded her in a low voice, “Don’t drink in such a hurry. It’s easy to get drunk.”
“That’s exactly what I want. Today, I’m going to drink with Benson until we’re drunk!” Elizabeth raised the bottle as if she had completely forgotten what she had just said. Her red eyes also became clear, as if it was their illusion.
With peanuts in his mouth, Benson sighed like an old man. “I’d better go back to France tomorrow!”
“Are you sure you want to leave tomorrow and not see your father?” Henry asked.
Benson said pitifully, “I’m an orphan!”
Henry didn’t know what to say, but his expression was blank.
Elizabeth belched and stared at Benson strangely!
“Alas, if I had known that Mom and Dad didn’t like me, I would have run away from home!”
Henry was speechless.
Elizabeth was speechless.
Oh.
It was indeed easy to get drunk. In addition, Elizabeth drank so fast that her eyes gradually blurred and she swayed.
“Let me drive you home.” Henry held her unsteady body.
Benson couldn’t help interrupting and said firmly, “Sending her home? Ha, she doesn’t have the guts!”
“Benson, do you have to make your mother angry?” Henry glared at him grumpily.

“I’m not mad at her. I’m just telling the truth.” Benson took a sip of wine. “You and Samuel both live in Beverly your car?”
Hills. How dare a coward like Elizabake
With his arm around Elizabeth’s waist, Henry smiled awkwardly and looked at the sleepy woman in his arms.
It seemed that she really didn’t have guts!
“Benson, don’t be so clear–headed.”
Elizabeth belched several times in a row. She vaguely heard Benson say that she was timid.
“Benson!” Elizabeth slapped on the table and then tapped Benson’s forehead with her finger. “Who do you think is a coward? How can I flirt with your father every day when I’m a coward?”
When Henry heard this, he felt uncomfortable. Although Elizabeth was drunk, she was telling the truth. He was also present on the day of the bet.
Had she been chasing after Samuel these days?
“Elizabeth, don’t you remember? Don’t you know that Benson is deliberately provoking you? You usually look smart, but why are you so stu pid at this critical moment?” Henry thought.
Later, Elizabeth thought that the reason why Elizabeth agreed to the bet was that she still couldn’t forget about Samuel.
He let go of her for a selfish reason. He was well aware of what had happened to the Yorks. After all, they were in the same circle.
Samuel and Celia were only one step away from getting married. Elizabeth would probably give up after witnessing their love with her own eyes. She was not a woman who would pester others relentlessly, How could she be so competitive in this matter?
Henry didn’t understand why he couldn’t compare with Samuel!
As he glanced at Benson, who was still drinking, tears streamed down his face. “Alas, Benson is not my biological son, “he thought.
Benson spread out his hands as if he could understand what Henry was thinking. “Henry, you can’t blame me.
I’m not your son!”
Henry patted her on the shoulder and said, “I’m leaving with your mother. I’ll ask Hugo to take you back to the hotel later.”
“Why are you in such a hurry? You don’t dare to do anything to her!”
-Henry wondered.
“So, do you want me to do something to your mom or not?”
He had already been driven crazy by this kid!
“Sit down, sit down still
I have something important to do.” Benson waved at him and returned to normal.
