Volume 1 Chapter 100 Han Luo Has Honey Mouth (2/2)
Mary Jones eagerly questioned, ”What is it? If there's anything I can do, please tell me.”
”I want you to prepare a girl for the international competition that's going to be held in November in Paris.”
Mary hesitated before asking, ”Who is this girl?”
Benjamin reported, ”She is a young girl around twelve years old. Her school applied for her after seeing that she is a good and promising dancer. However, she came to London a month ago. She doesn't have a dance teacher yet. She has been learning ballet since she was young. I hope you can take care of her.”
She looked relieved. ”Oh, I see. When will she come?”
Benjamin replied, ”In the evening. I'll be her choreographer and you will be her dance teacher.”
Mary protested, ”But in the evening the dance school is closed.”
”It will be open for her,” Benjamin casually uttered.
Mary clenched her fists under the table. ”Why are you going to such lengths for her when you stopped dancing years ago? Could it be because of her-”
”It's none of your business,” Benjamin sternly interrupted.
Mary looked hurt. ”Of course, it's my business! Back when we were dancing partners, you were the top tango dancer in Europe. But for such a random wretched girl”
Benjamin's eyes dangerously narrowed. ”Be careful of what you say. I don't have a high tolerance when someone bad mouths her. And this little girl has nothing to do with her. Don't take your anger out on her.” His voice was low.
Mary stubbornly declared, ”If you don't tell me why you are coming back after all these years, then I won't agree to teach her.”
Benjamin threatened, ”After what you did to her, you owe me big time. I still allowed you to be a part of this dancing school because you have potential. I will not tolerate any more of your disobedience. Think about the crimes you've committed and teach the little girl whole heartedly. Don't forget that I will be here to keep an eye on you.”
Mary was deeply hurt by his words. Her body started to shake. ”So you are saying that you let me stay so that you can use me not because you couldn't bear to hurt me.”
”I couldn't bear?” Benjamin chuckled. ”After knowing that the accident was caused by you intentionally, I wanted to straggle you to death. Your jealously is so disgusting that you let an innocent girl suffer.”
”Innocent girl?! I did it because I love you!” Mary exclaimed.
”You did it because you love yourself and you think you are the queen of the world. You think you can get anything you want and when you don't have it, you use extreme measures. If that incident was exposed, do you think you can dance proudly at this moment? Do you think you will have fans after they find out about your disgusting self?”
Mary's lips trembled. Her body paralyzed her from even moving an inch. She begged as her eyes welled up. ”Ben please don't do this to me! I can take anyone's hatred, but I cannot take yours!
