A Moment in Destiny
Chapter 975 Accessories

Benjamin slightly lowered his head with a weird expression. He coughed and asked, "Do I look like someone who has a girlfriend?"

Rae was startled and replied, "Don't you have any?"

Benjamin nodded, "No, I'm buying an accessories for my mother!"

Rae was surprised by his answer. She was moved by his action. It was great for someone who still remembered and cared about his parents when he was at his thirties. She could not help it but smiled at Benjamin, "Mr. Newman, you're so filial!"

"How about you?"

"I was going to buy it for myself but after I've seen that Mr. Newman being so filial, I've decided to buy it for my mother too!"

There was no other choice for Rae but to buy the jewelry. Fortunately, she brought her credit card. She was following Phantom but the person who came down from the car was Benjamin. She did not expect that she was discovered by him when she was following him. It was unexpectedly that his anti-reconnaissance ability was very strong.

When she arrived at the jewelry store to buy something, she thought of her mother who was still in the hospital. Rae felt a little upset that she never bought anything for Mrs. Baxter. Before that, she did not know that they were her parents. But now, she knew and she would like to make it up as soon as possible.

Rae stood in front of the counter while looking at the accessories inside.

Benjamin was looking at the accessories too. He lowered his head while bending his fingers on the counter gently while knocking on the glass surface. He was a very handsome man and his sense of fashion was very updated. He was wearing a plain blue shirt with dark stripes. It was like a British style. Although, it did not look formal but when the cuffs were opened and rolled up, it revealed a delicate and expensive watch. He looked so elegant which attracted all the salesperson secretly but he never looked at them. He was thinking as if he was feeling while choosing the accessories inside.

Rae walked around the counter and peeked at Benjamin again. She was thinking about how rich he was that he was able to drive a Phantom? This car costed about 1.2 1.6 million dollar, it was not a car that everyone could afford to drive!

Benjamin was just the director of the YS Club and he could afford to drive such an expensive car?

Seven years ago, how old was he?

Was he twenty-two years old, right?

At that time, was he able to afford it?

Rae felt that she was going a little crazy. She started to doubt when she saw the Phantom. Whether she was going to step aside or not, she still wanted to check it out.

While Rae was observing him secretly, Benjamin started to feel that she was looking at him. He raised his head and looked back at her. When Rae wanted to avoid, it was too late so she smiled at him awkwardly.

He smiled back at her. He walked over to her and asked her, "Rae, what kind of accessories do you want to buy for your mother?"

Rae looked at different kinds of precious jewelry, diamonds, jade, gold, gems and many more. She was confused and thought about it. She replied, "I think it's better to get a jade for her. I think that my mother is suitable for jade jewelry!"

Rae was thinking that Mrs. Baxter was still in the hospital therefore she wanted to buy a piece of jade Buddha for her. Although she did not believe about it so much but it was not too much to ask for auspiciousness for the sake of family love!

When she thought of Leonard, she suddenly remembered that she had never bought anything for her father. She used to buy it for Kane but he did not say anything about then slowly she did not buy anything for him anymore.

Now, she was selecting the present for Mrs. Baxter. When she thought of Leonard, she just chose another set for him too. There was a saying that men should wear Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara piece and women should wear Buddha piece. She decided to buy a jade Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara for Leonard.

Benjamin also looked at the jade and said, "What a coincidence, I'm going to buy a jade jewelry for my mother too! Let's go and look over there!"

"Yes, okay!" Rae followed him and walked over.

The long counter was filled with many jade ornaments. The spotlights that hit onto the counter which made the ornaments looked more jewel-like.

At this time, the salesperson asked them, "Sir and Miss, what do you need?"

Rae looked at it but she did not understand too much about jade jewelry. She looked at the price, it was from hundreds to thousands dollar. Some were even up to million dollars. She was shocked when she looked at the price. She knew that jade jewelry was priceless and it was difficult to estimate its value.

Benjamin looked at her confusing look and smiled a little. He asked her, "Rae, what do you want? Just pick any. Do you have any intentions? I have some knowledge about jades. If you believe in me, I could give you some advice!"

"Oh?!" Rae was very surprised. "I didn't expect that Mr. Newman would have knowledge about jade. Mr. Newman is really knowledgeable!"

"Rae, just call me Benjamin would do!" Benjamin lowered his head and looked at her. "I feel uneasy when you call me Mr. Newman. I'm calling you Rae so you can just call my name directly!" "Okay!" Rae nodded her head. "Yes, Benjamin."

"What do you want to buy?" Benjamin pointed at the jewelry in the counter. "Jade bracelet?"

Rae shook her head. "Actually, I want to buy a jade Buddha but I thought of my father so I've decided to buy a pair of jade Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara and jade Buddha!"

"You're such a good daughter!" Benjamin looked at Rae's eyes. There was a flash of admiration in his eyes.

She started to blush and lowered her head. She was not a good daughter. She was living with her own parents for five years and she had never doubted anything. She was being cold at them and she almost got her father killed. She was a police officer. When she remembered that she was almost being taken advantage, she felt annoyed for a while. When Benjamin praised her, she felt ashamed!

She took a breath and sighed in her heart. It was embarrassing and speechless. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Benjamin looked her little red face. He seemed a little absentminded. There was a complicated expression in her eyes. The speed of the change was unpredictable.

Rae went to check out the jewelry inside the counter again. She never raised her eyes nor did she notice that Benjamin was looking at her surroundings.

"Benjamin!" Rae saw a transparent but an opaque looking jewelry. It was a pair. It seemed good but she had no idea about it that she needed to consult him. "How about these two?"

He was being absentminded and suddenly he got back to his sense. First, he smiled at Rae and walked over. He moved very close with Rae, she could almost sell the faint fragrance from his body with the aroma of tobacco. Rae moved back and avoided a little.

Benjamin immediately notice her action. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the jade Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara and jade Buddha that Rae was pointing for a while. He said, "This is a pair of nephrite jade. It's a piece of stone polished and turned into two pieces of jewelry. The price is not too expensive, the price is around six thousands dollars. It's worth to buy it and its value would increase after a few years! You do have a good taste!"

After she heard it, she looked at others and pointed at the pair of green and translucent jade. How about this pair?" "This is jadeite, it's the usual jade. This pair isn't as good as the other pair, I suggest you buy that pair instead!"

Rae looked around and hesitated for a while. It was around six thousand dollars. She had been saving for a year!

She thought for a while and finally took out the card from her bag. She said to the salespersons, "I would like to have this pair!"

The salesperson immediately opened the bill for her and took out the jade.

Rae looked at Benjamin, "Benjamin, thank you so much. By the way, what are you buying then? Do you have any intentions?"

Benjamin looked at the jade jewelry and chose an emerald jade bracelet in the end. Rae felt like he was picking a piece randomly but she knew that Benjamin had knowledge about jade therefore she did not say a single word after.

When both paid for the jewelry, Rae took hers and was about to leave.

Benjamin said, "Rae, let's go and have a meal together! I'll treat you!"

Rae did not have the intentions earlier on but she was too curious about the Phantom. Therefore, she nodded her head after she thought for a while. "I should be treating Mr. Newman because you help me to choose the jade jewelry. I would like to treat you a meal as a thank you, as long as you don't mind!"

"What are you talking about? Please allow me to treat you!" Benjamin smiled a little.

After they argued for a while, they decided that it was important to go and eat first.

When they reached at the car, Benjamin walked over to the passenger seat to open the door for Rae.

Rae thanked him and sat in.

This car costed about 1.2 million dollars was indeed extraordinary. Rae sighed and Benjamin had already walked over and sat in the car.

Rae looked surprised. Benjamin smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"

She smiled awkwardly, "Nothing, I just think that your car is really awesome!"

"Awesome?" Benjamin laughed when he heard the word. "Haha.., you're not the first person who said it!"

"How could you drive such an expensive car?" Rae did not understand at all.

"It's just purely personal preference!" Benjamin replied while starting the engine of the car. "However, the car was gifted by my father. He wanted to make it up for me so he gave me this car!" "Your father?" Rae was a little surprised.

"Yes! I'm just an illegitimate child!" Benjamin suddenly said. "My father had an extramarital affair with my mother. After she gave birth to me, she was being judged by others and did not say anything about it!" Rae was completely silent for a moment, she was speechless.

Benjamin only mentioned this and did not continue saying any further.

However, Rae suddenly felt embarrassed and speechless at the same time. She just felt sympathetic that Benjamin could live on for so many years while being judged by the others. She could not imagine that someone who looked so glamorous would have such a background! Also, about his mother. How could she be the third party in a marriage! Oh, woman! What a pity!

Benjamin seemed to know what Rae was thinking. He smiled and said, "It's nothing, you don't have to feel pity for me!"

"Really?" Rae smiled awkwardly and replied, "Actually, I do feel pity for you but since you mention about it. I think that you could take it therefore I have a word to say!"

"What?"

"A hero doesn't need to be asked where he comes from!" Rae replied.

Benjamin suddenly laughed. "Hahaha..."

Rae also laughed along. Wasn't she the same from before? Now she already knew about her background yet she did not know about the truth from before and what kind of story that made Kane go crazy! After he smiled, he looked at sideways and said, "Rae, you're really cute!"

Rae smiled back.

"Where are we going to eat?" He asked.

"Anywhere is fine!"

"Let's go to New World!" 0000☐☐☐☐
