Chapter 344 The Stupid Woman


    Chapter 344 The Stupid Woman


    As they drove home, the streetlights cast a warm glow on their path.


    Madelyn leaned weakly against the seat, her cheeks flushed with a mix of excitement and guilt as they


    had an intimate encounter and ignored Everest momentarily.


    Benjamin couldn''t resist stealing nces at her, captivated by the beautiful flush on her face that only


    enhanced her allure.


    Suddenly, a phone call interrupted their thoughts.


    It was Kaleb.


    He greeted and quickly got to the point, "Ben, Ms. Dn has somehow discovered Keh''s identity


    and is determined to meet him!"


    Benjamin inquired, "What about Ken''s opinion?"


    Kaleb responded with a cunning smile, "Ken suggests that we quietly observe the situation. If we want


    to bring down the coal mine owners in the Southwest, we must gather sufficient evidence to demolish


    them."


    Benjamin understood the underlying shrewdness behind Kaleb''s words and agreed, "That''s excellent!


    As for Everest, I''ll have Madelyn bring him over tomorrow."


    He ended the call, not bothering to mention Elizabeth as she was not worth mentioning.


    Instead, he turned to Madelyn and shared, "Ken is truly eager to see Everest. And you''ll take him to the


    hotel."


    Madelyn softly nodded in agreement.

    Benjamin stole a few more nces at her, then cleared his throat.


    "Are you still angry?" he asked.


    Madelyn felt a hint of unease and averted her gaze.


    Benjamin reached out and tenderly sped her hand, his touch offeringfort.


    "Madelyn, was your positive attitude spurred by the red wine or being in that apartment?" he inquired.


    A blush crept up Madelyn''s cheeks.


    Benjamin let out a soft chuckle.


    He realized that his feelings for her had deepened beyond what he had even expected.


    ...


    Elizabeth finally managed to establish contact with Mr. Ryan in Vadiff.


    She anxiously pleaded with Mr. Ryan''s secretary, "Kaleb, please inquire if Mr. Ryan has any avability


    to meet me?"


    Kaleb replied, "Keh has a private schedule today and is unfortunately unavable."


    Elizabeth summoned her courage, relying on her youthful looks and seductive figure.


    Leaning closer to Kaleb, she pleaded again meaningfully.


    And he just casually draped his arm around her and replied, "How about I bring you insideter and


    you can personally appeal to Mr. Ryan?"


    Elizabeth gratefully nodded.


    They arrived at the door of a luxurious suite, guarded by four imposing, ck-d bodyguards.


    Elizabeth''s mind buzzed with anticipation. If she could establish a connection with Mr. Ryan, the


    resources and opportunities she could gain for her husband would be limitless. It would pave the way


    for her own sessful career as well.


    Kaleb opened the door, revealing a spacious and tranquil suite.


    On the carpet, a man and a child were engrossed in building blocks, creating an adorable scene.


    The man, in his forties, exuded an air of refinement and handsomeness. His expression was


    surprisingly gentle, contrary to the rumors of his ruthlessness.


    The child, around four years old, had fair skin and delicate features. There was something strangely


    familiar about him.


    Kaleb leaned closer to Mr. Ryan and uttered, "Mr. Ryan, Ms. Dn is here to request a favor."


    Keh didn''t raise his head, "Didn''t I already mention that I''m not receiving any guests today?"


    Kaleb felt a pang of embarrassment, while Elizabeth hurriedly interjected, "Mr. Ryan, I understand your


    busy schedule. I''m here on behalf of my husband''s concerns, and I won''t let your help go in vain..."


    Finally, Keh looked up her.


    He studied the woman before him, her appearance seemingly respectable, but a glimmer of calction


    flickering in her face.


    Regardless of others, this woman dared to act against Madelyn.


    He wouldn''t let her get away with it.


    Keh, gracefully settling onto the sofa, smiled but said nothing.


    Elizabeth was stiffened and embarrassed.


    Just then, little Emerson, with a face filled with disappointment, voiced his grievances. "Great-uncle


    Keh, are you not going to y with me anymore?"


    Keh was momentarily taken aback. Hadn''t this child just called him "dad" a moment ago?


    He quickly squatted down, disying immense patience towards the child.


    Elizabeth, sensing an opportunity, reached into her purse and retrieved a thick stack of bills.


    She carefully ced them into a red envelope and handed it to Emerson.


    Growing up in poverty, little Emerson looked up at Keh with hopeful eyes. "Great-uncle Keh,


    can I buy lots of milk tea with this?"


    Keh gently caressed his head. "You should drink less milk tea."


    Emerson sniffled and softly uttered, "Mommy can''t afford to buy a lot. She can only get me one cup...


    she never spends money on herself."


    Keh''s expression twisted slightly, the words tugging at his heartstrings.


    He didn''t shift attention to Elizabeth and summoned Kaleb to handle the matter.


    As for Elizabeth, coaxed by skilled Kaleb, believed that she earned help from Keh sessfully.


    As they left the suite, Elizabeth grew more convinced that her future held prosperity, even looking down


    upon her nouveau riche husband.


    Coincidentally, Madelyn was on the first floor of the hotel.


    She was sitting at a table with Eloise and enjoying their coffee.


    Elizabeth, considering herself on the same level as them, deliberately approached their table.


    "Madelyn, what a coincidence to see you here," she said, a hint of condescension in her voice.


    Madelyn had mixed feelings about meeting.


    It was Elizabeth who prepared those videos and caused Benjamin jealous.


    Elizabeth continued to sneer, "Madelyn, I believe Benjamin will eventually grow tired of you, and you


    will be kicked out of the rk family."


    Eloise raised an eyebrow, silently questioning where this crazy woman came from.


    Madelyn chose not to engage in an argument with Elizabeth.


    Just then, Kaleb appeared downstairs with the child.


    The little one immediately rushed into Eloise''s arms, addressing her as "mom" in a soft voice.


    Elizabeth was taken aback. Why would the child from the suite call Eloise "mom"?


    Kaleb smiled and intervened, "Do you two know each other, Ms. Dn? Allow me to introduce.


    Madelyn is Mr. Ryan''s niece."


    Elizabeth''s expression darkened. She had suspected that Madelyn had influential connections, but she


    hadn''t expected her to be rted to Mr. Ryan himself.


    Just then, Keh also came down.


    He first ruffled Emerson''s hair before turning his attention to Madelyn, scolding her gently. "Why don''t


    you take care of yourself like Emerson? The air conditioning is so strong, and yet you''re only


    concerned about looking good!"


    With those words, he promptly removed his own coat and ced it over Madelyn''s legs.


    He affectionately patted her head, exactly like when he treated Emerson.


    Then he left with Kaleb.


    Seated in the car, Keh sent a message to Eloise [Feeling jealous?]


    Eloise replied. [I didn''t!]


    After a while, Keh''s message finally came through. [Madelyn is part of the younger generation. Are


    you jealous of her?]


    Eloise found herself speechless. Did he deliberately make a show of picking up the coat just to send


    this boring message?


    There was one person, however, who cared a great deal -Elizabeth.


    Despite originally looking down on Madelyn, witnessing how highly revered Keh treated her,


    showering her with care and treating her like a child, she was upset!


    Why did Madelyn always seem to have everything?


    She came from a powerful family and even captivated Benjamin!


    Madelyn took a sip of coffee and suggested, "Elizabeth, if you were to divorce your husband now,


    perhaps you could still retain your assets."


    Elizabeth clenched her teeth and replied, "Madelyn, are you intentionally trying to provoke me?"


    Madelyn lowered her gaze, taking a moment before meeting Elizabeth''s eyes again.


    "In the past, you caused significant harm to Vivian''s family. Even though you are now married, it


    appears that you still n to hurt others and get close to Benjamin."


    Elizabeth was at a loss for words.


    Just then, she received a message from Kaleb, informing her that Mr. Ryan was willing to coborate


    with her husband.


    Instantly, Elizabeth felt reinvigorated.


    She cast Madelyn a smug look. "We''ll see!"


    Eloise whispered to Madelyn, unable to contain her curiosity. "Madelyn, do you care about her?"


    Madelyn shook her head and answered, "I find her repulsive! She caused immense harm to Vivian, and


    now she''s resorting to the same skills!"


    Deciding not to dwell on the topic any further, Madelyn handed Eloise Keh''s coat.


    Eloise was taken aback.


    A faint smile spread across Madelyn''s face. "Ken wants you to wear it. I''m merely rying his


    message. He''s concerned you might feel cold."


    Eloise''s cheeks flushed slightly, holding the coat that emitted a masculine scent.


    There was something hard in the pocket.


    Curiosity getting the better of her, Eloise reached inside and discovered a velvet box.


    Slowly, she opened it...
