Chapter 338



.

Joseph heard that voice and turned to see, at first he didn’t hear well and the voice didn’t sound familiar. But then he turned his head well and unexpectedly saw a familiar person, in a bad mood he said to him.

“Why are you here?”.

The moment she saw Joseph, Rebekah stopped. Her kind smile froze as well, and she looked at Joseph in a daze. She was unable to speak for a moment.

Benjamin was nervous and looked at Joseph uneasily, “You didn’t want to talk to me? Let’s go”.

However, Joseph already suspected something and asked coldly, “He just called you by name, what is your relationship?”.

They could no longer hide it.

Benjamin took a deep breath and frowned, “It’s my mother.”

There was a lot of silence after he said that.

Joseph didn’t speak for a while.

“Joseph, please don’t take this the wrong way, your brother didn’t…”. Rebekah tried to help him explain, but failed.

“Interesting.” Joseph scoffed, interrupting her. Then he raised his eyes coolly, “I haven’t said anything yet. Why do you think there will be a misunderstanding? Tell me, what did I misunderstand?”

Rebekah was speechless for a moment.

“If you won’t say it, I’ll say it for you.” Joseph’s expression was clear and cold. His eyes were tinged with indifference and detachment. And when he looked at Benjamin again, it was as if he were looking at a stranger.

gⱯlnσν𝓮𝓁s․com holds stories for every mood “Twenty years ago, when you left the Beckham Family, you promised Grandfather that you would not return to N. City. For so many years you lived your own life outside and we lived in peace. But I didn’t expect you to come back.”

“Brother?” Joseph became more annoyed, “How do you have the nerve to say that? What is your relationship to me? Is your last name Beckham? When you left the Beckham Family twenty years ago, he had nothing to do with me, how can you call that bastard brother?”.

Joseph had never been so angry with anyone before. He even spoke vulgarly to his mother.

In the distance, Hayden had just finished buying groceries, as she walked to the parking lot. At these words, she shivered and almost dropped the box she was holding. As she approached, Benjamin suddenly brandished a fist towards Joseph’s face.

Joseph didn’t expect him to do this, so it was too late to stop him. He was knocked to the other side. He recoiled, and when he raised his head, his mouth was broken and stained with blood.

Rebekah screamed and grabbed Joseph immediately, “Joseph, are you okay?”

“Mom, don’t worry about him. Joseph, how dare you call me a bastard?”. Benjamin looked at Joseph with anger and frustration, “What has my mother ever done to you that you have to say those things to him and break his heart?”

Joseph shook off Rebekah’s hand and his face turned cold. “Didn’t you hear all about it? She didn’t need to apologize to me, but she has to apologize to my father.”

“Bullshit!” Benjamin walked up to him and said, “You don’t know her, my mother is not that kind of person.”

“I thought so too at first.” Joseph looked at him coldly, “But now I don’t think so. If I still knew what shame is, I wouldn’t have come back to N-Town. Don’t tell me it was a coincidence that you got close to Hayden and the Beckham Family, there is no such coincidence in this world.”

“Joseph.” Hayden couldn’t stand to hear that and stopped him. He ran over to him and tugged on his arm, “Things aren’t as complicated as you think, it might just be a coincidence. There are so many people watching us…”.

Seeing Hayden obviously advocating for them, Joseph became even more annoyed, “You already knew that?”.

Hayden frowned and didn’t deny it. The fact was that he knew, but it was better for everyone to keep it from him.

“This matter has nothing to do with Hayden.” Benjamin said uneasily, “It has nothing to do with my mother either. I’m the one who wanted to see the bastard who kicked my mother out of the house.”

“Benjamin.” Rebekah was anxious and gripped his arm tightly.

Hayden was afraid Joseph was going to make a move and was also pulling him tightly. “Joseph.”

They were both nervous. After a while, Joseph seemed to remember something and said, “You shouldn’t have entered the University of Public Security, but the University of Dramatic Arts, you and your mother are good actors. Please go back to Lanxi, even if you don’t inherit the Beckham Family’s estate, there are other relatives here, you won’t be able to get a penny.”

Benjamin’s face paled and he tried to grab Joseph’s neck, but Rebekah held him by the waist. In the struggle, Rebekah shouted, “That’s enough.”

They were both stunned.

Rebekah let go of Benjamin’s waist, despite the messy hair and the scarf falling from her shoulders. She was still calm and her back was straight, but her voice trembled slightly.

“No matter what you think, I came to N City just to see Benjamin, there is no other reason as you think. Since you don’t want to see me, I won’t come back, but Benjamin has only six months left to finish his studies and he will leave the country. In spite of everything I am your mother, so I beg you not to cause him any trouble.”

“Mom, I don’t want you to beg him.”

“You shut up.” Suddenly Rebekah raised her hand and slapped Benjamin’s face.

Hayden and Joseph froze. No one expected her to do that.

“If you still think I’m your mother, you should finish this half year in peace, then go abroad and never come back to N-Town again. Don’t think of anything else.”

Saying that, Rebekah looked at Joseph with sad eyes, “He is not your brother.”

After saying those words, she turned to leave.

Benjamin’s face reddened. He looked fiercely at Joseph, “Joseph, someday you will regret what you said today.”

Then he chased after Rebekah.

Joseph and Hayden were still standing at the hospital entrance. Hayden carefully touched Joseph’s hand, his hand that was always warm, at that moment it was cold.

“Joseph.” It was clear that Joseph was still upset that she had kept that from him.

“If you want to convince me of something, you don’t need to open your mouth.”

Hayden frowned, sighed quietly in his heart and felt sad for him. “I don’t want to persuade you. I just want to tell you that people who are generous really do live a happy and peaceful life.”
