BXBX NOVEL Chapter 151 Victims Of PDA
"Ben?" When Tina nodded, Rachael inquired, "Are you talking about our Ben?"
"Yes, Andrew\'s assistant Ben." Without waiting for her reply, Tina said, "So is he single?"
"Well, I haven\'t seen any women around him for the past couple of months but I am not really sure," Rachael answered.
"I see." Keeping quiet for a while, she said, "So there is a high chance that he is single or he is in a long term relationship."
"Tina, what\'s going on?" Rachael crossed her arms in the front and raised her brows. Tina\'s sudden interest in Ben\'s dating was quite suspicious.
"Nothing," Tina shook her head.
Her denial made her scoff and roll her eyes. "Ohh please. If it is nothing, why would you wanna know if he is dating anyone or not?"
"I was just being curious." When Rachael gave her the \'REALLY\' look , she sighed and admitted, "Fine, I find him cute and he is kinda hot too."
"Damn girl," Rachael smacked Tina\'s arm. "You have a crush on Ben."
"W-What? No—" Tina nervously chuckled. "I don\'t have a crush on him. I just think he is hot and really really cute."
"Okay girl, you definitely have a crush on him," Rachael chuckled. Without waiting for Tina\'s reply, she added, "To be honest, Ben is a really great guy."
"I know right? And he is really easy to tease," Tina exclaimed.
Just then a helper excused herself inside to inform Rachael that Andrew was waiting for her downstairs.
"Are you guys going somewhere?" Tina inquired as they left the room together.
"We will drop by our place to pack our luggage for the trip but—" Rachael glanced at the watch. "We were supposed to go there in the evening."

[Living Room]
When Rachael and Tina arrived downstairs, Andrew and Ben were seated on the couch discussing something.
When she saw Ben, Tina awkwardly cleared her throat and fixed her dress. This action of hers made Rachael laugh.
This drew the attention of the two men who were busy working.
Tina glared at Rachael before pinching her arm, gesturing her not to be so obvious.
"What happened Rach? Is everything okay?" Andrew inquired.
"Yeah, everything is fine," Rachael grinned at Tina before walking towards Andrew. She then sat right beside him.
"Madam," Ben greeted her to which Rachael responded with a smile and polite nod.
"A few documents need your signature," Andrew gave her a pen and Ben presented the papers in front of her.
"Oh okay—" Without asking any further questions, she signed whenever Ben asked her to.
After she was done, she gave the pen back to him and asked, "Anything else?"
"You didn\'t even ask what it is for—" Andrew wrapped his arms around her shoulder. "What if I am transferring all your assets under my name?"
"Isn\'t what is mine already yours." Rachael rested her back on his chest. "You can take away all my assets, as long as you stay by my side, that\'s enough for me."
Ben: " "
Tina: " "
How did they suddenly become victims of PDA?
The butterflies in Andrew\'s stomach started jumping in excitement. He felt very flustered and his heart rammed against his chest.
He was not yet done processing her sweet words when she looked at him. "When are we going home?"
Without waiting for his answer, Rachael added, "Should we go now if you are done with your work?"
"Is there anything left?" Andrew looked at Ben.
"No boss, we are done for the day."
"Ben, do you always work on Sundays too?" Rachael inquired.
"Whenever boss works on Sundays, I work too," Ben answered.
"I see." Pausing for a while, she added, "You shouldn\'t work on Sundays. You are supposed to spend time with your family or your girlfriend on weekends."
Tina, who was sitting not too far away, choked on the water she was drinking.
"I don\'t have any family here madam and it\'s quite lonely in my apartment. So I prefer working than staying at home doing nothing." Ben was still new to the city and didn\'t know many people apart from a few of them at work. In fact, he was yet to explore the city properly.
"Oh so you don\'t have a girlfriend?" Before he could answer, Rachael sighed, "I am so sorry, that question was highly inappropriate."
"No madam, it\'s fine. I didn\'t mind," he assured her. "I don\'t have a girlfriend."
"Oh you don\'t?" Rachael looked at Tina and smiled.
Andrew quietly observed his wife\'s sly behaviour but he didn\'t say anything. Instead, he tried to support her.
"Since we don\'t have anything to do for the rest of the day, you should go somewhere and enjoy your weekend," Andrew remarked. "Treat yourself a nice dinner or take a walk in some park."
"A walk in the park sounds nice," Rachael exclaimed. "There are many beautiful parks here but you are new so you might not be able to find them."
Without waiting for his reply, she added, "Since this is your first time exploring the city, you need a local to show you the best places here. Andrew and I are very busy so we won\'t be able to take you around."
"That\'s fine, I\'ll figure something out." Ben didn\'t wish to trouble anyone.
Pretending to think for a while, Rachael remarked, "Tina can take you around." She then looked at her friend who had choked again and was vigorously coughing. "You aren\'t doing anything today, right?"
"I don\'t know—" Tina awkwardly cleared her throat. "I think I can take some time out."
"There is no need for that madam, I don\'t want to trouble Ms. Adams. I am sure she has other things to do," Ben tried to politely turn the offer down.
"Oh no, she totally has nothing to do," Rachael stated. "In fact, you will do her a favour by accompanying her today. She has been nagging me to go out with her since morning but I have so many things to do today."
"I—" Ben was still very hesitant.
"Why are you so reluctant? It\'s not like she will eat you up," Andrew remarked before looking at Tina. "Right?"
