Chapter 1513
"Alright, I really appreciate your hard work," said Zachary emotionlessly. He then wheeled
himself to the living room to look for Benjamin'.
Sophia was used to him being unfeeling to her, so she was especially happy to hear him
say that. She glanced toward the living room before picking up the ketchup and going to
the kitchen.
The presidential suite boasted of an open-plan kitchen, so she could see them from where

She did not feel something was amiss when she saw Jeremy teaching ’ Benjamin' how to
play puzzle blocks until she vaguely heard the little boy saying, "Thanks, Mister!"
'Mister? Why would that boy call his own father Mister?' Sophia watched suspiciously as
Jeremy passed 'Benjamin' a completed puzzle block.
That gesture alone made her realize something was not right. She bought that puzzle
block for Benjamin back in Molomia, and it took the little boy no time at all to learn how to
make things out of it. Why, then, would he need Jeremy's help all of a sudden?
'This can’t be right. That boy has certainly been acting weird for the past few days. I know
he doesn't want to call me Mommy, but he has never acted hostile toward me. He used to
be willing to listen to me when I talked to him, yet he's been ignoring me for the past few
days. It's like he doesn't even show me basic respect,' thought Sophia.
She still could not believe he actually called her 'Ketchup Lady'. The Benjamin she knew
would never call her that, so she could not help but wonder whether the kid before her
was really Benjamin.
Even so, she could not find conclusive evidence that the boy was not Benjamin.

washed on the chopping board. She julienned the two green peppers and cooked them
with the omelet.
10 minutes later, Sophia placed the salad and omelet on the table. 'The video tutorials
came in useful after all. The dishes I've cooked look so much better than yesterday's!'
"Zachary. Benjamin. Dinner's ready! Go wash your hands and come try Mommy's
cooking!"
Zachary gave her a listless response and then asked 'Benjamin' to put down his toys. They
then went to wash their hands together.
