Chapter 783 Stop Pretending

• While Benedict jutted his chin in silence, Elise was able to see through the mild-mannered nature hidden beneath his unforgiving behavior. Because of that, she began to feel more comfortable around the man, with whom she then tried to ingratiate herself. "Can I depend on you for help from now on, Uncle Benedict?"
• Benedict stood in place and looked down, pondering for a short while before he turned around and looked Elise in the eye. "We might have fallen out back then, but I never said I'd abandon you."
• Aw! Everyone in the Joslin Family is so kind. At the thought of that, Elise felt her heart melting, extending her arms to hug Benedict, as if Anastasia was hugging her uncle. "Thank you so much, Uncle Benedict."
