《Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn)》


 Chapter 1 Interfering with a Big Shot

    Chapter 1 Interfering with a Big Shot


    Chapter 1 Messing with a Big Shot


    On the night when Daniel Campbell was engaged with the other woman, Madelyn Green got herself


    beastly drunk.


    She mistook a stunningly handsome man for Daniel and hugged him in the dark corridor and kissed


    him crazily.


    They all felt good after the kiss. The handsome man looked down at the woman in his arms and asked


    in a husky, sexy voice, ¡°Are you serious?¡±


    Madelyn sobered up a bit and recognized him.


    It was Benjamin rk, one of the topwyers in the country. He had a great fortune and was a typical


    elite.


    Of course, it was necessary to mention his other identity ¨C he was Daniel¡¯s future wife¡¯s brother.


    Madelyn chickened out.


    But on second thought, she changed her mind. Since Daniel could cheat on her, why couldn¡¯t she


    indulge herself in enjoyment?


    Madelyn didn¡¯t struggle; instead, she hugged Benjamin tightly.


    She had a good appearance and a sexy figure.


    Benjamin wasn¡¯t a hotheaded person who would act rashly, but now he was willing to have a one-night


    stand with her.


    With his arms wrapping around her slender waist and his prominent nose against hers, he pondered for


    a while before asking, ¡°Would you like to go to another ce?¡±


    Madelyn didn¡¯t have any sexual experience, but she pretended to be experienced in this. She moved


    her lips to his ear and then whispered, ¡°I¡¯ve never had sex here.¡±


    Benjamin knitted his brows.


    This woman was such a slut!


    She looked pure and innocent on the surface, and he was deceived by her appearance just now.

    But as it was just to meet his sexual desire, so he didn¡¯t care about this much. Hence, he lowered his


    head to kiss her again.


    Like many horny urban men and women, they were also very eager.


    As Madelyn had drunk some alcohol before, she felt spellbound under his kiss. She leaned her head


    against his shoulder and murmured in an extremely low voice, ¡°Daniel...¡±


    The man then paused in his movements.


    Benjamin let go of her and leaned against the wall of the corridor. He lowered his head and then lit a


    cigarette.


    Then he gazed at her with great interest.


    Daniel...


    Interesting! The woman before him was actually the ex-girlfriend of his younger sister¡¯s husband-to-be.


    Madelyn was in bewilderment. She guessed that Benjamin must have investigated her before.


    Benjamin dusted off the cigarette ash and asked casually, ¡°You should know my identity, right? What


    was on your mind when you kissed me? You want to disgust Daniel by sleeping with me?¡±


    Madelyn couldn¡¯t deny it.


    Benjamin was very famous, so it would be too hypocritical if she said that she didn¡¯t know him. Having


    no choice, she lowered her head and apologized, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mr. rk. Sorry to bother you.¡±


    Since she wanted to leave, Benjamin didn¡¯t intend to stop her.


    But Madelyn¡¯s phone rang at this moment. It was a call from her stepmother Cam Logan.


    ¡°Madelyn, pleasee back ASAP. We¡¯re in trouble.¡±


    Madelyn asked several questions, but Cam couldn¡¯t exin them clearly and only urged her to hurry


    back.


    Madelyn¡¯s felt her legs soft after ending the call. She apologized to Benjamin again, ¡°Mr. rk, I¡¯m


    sorry.¡±


    She was sensible and knew deep down that she couldn¡¯t afford to offend him.


    Benjamin gazed at her intensely.


    He stood straight, tossed a jacket onto her, and said, ¡°Put it on. I¡¯ll send you back.¡±


    Madelyn didn¡¯t refuse it. She thanked him in a low voice and then got into the car.


    Benjamin¡¯s car was Bentley Continental. The two remained silent all the way.


    Madelyn casted a few nce at him.


    Benjamin had a perfect profile. His features were chiseled. And although she couldn¡¯t discern the brand


    of his shirt, she could tell it was noble.


    Madelyn knew that such kind of man wouldn¡¯tck women.


    When they arrived, Benjamin stopped the car and then tilted his head to look at Madelyn. His gaze


    lingered on her slender, fair lower leg. After a while, he took out a name card from the cab and


    handed it to Madelyn.


    It was tacit between grown-up men and women. Madelyn understood what he wanted at a thought.


    She hadn¡¯t expected that Benjamin was still willing to sleep with her after learning about her identity.


    But she still refused it.


    She said in a soft tone, ¡°Mr. rk, we¡¯d better not contact each other.¡±


    Right at this moment, Madelyn¡¯s phone beeped.


    She thought it was Cam. But when she took out her phone and nce at the screen, she found it


    was a message from Daniel.


    "Madelyn, where are you?"


    Benjamin also saw the message. He chucked and teased, ¡°Ms. Green, you¡¯re very loyal.¡±


    Madelyn felt a bit embarrassed and wanted to exin.


    But Benjamin had elegantly gotten out of the car and opened the car door for her. She had no choice


    but to get out of the car. But she forgot that she was still wearing his jacket.


    Benjamin sat back in the car, feeling nothing for this failed romantic encounter.


    Madelyn was very beautiful, but he was never short of beautiful women who would proactively pursue


    him.

    Chapter 2 The Elegant, Self-esteemed Benjamin


    When Madelyn walked into the house, she found Cam sitting on the sofa with a dull expression.


    Her eyes were red. It seemed like she had cried a while ago.


    Madelyn looked around and asked, ¡°Cam, what happened? Where¡¯s Dad?¡±


    Cam Logan was the second wife of Madelyn¡¯s father.


    Camshed out when she heard Madelyn¡¯s question.


    ¡°Daniel is so ungrateful and ruthless!!!¡±


    ¡°Several years ago, when the Campbell Group was in crisis, you didn¡¯t leave him. Now the situation


    finally got better, but he dumped you and even wanted to send your father to jail. Your father is now


    detained.¡±


    ¡°Madelyn, I told you long ago that Daniel wasn¡¯t the right one for you. But you didn¡¯t listen to me.¡±


    ...


    Cam continuouslyined about Daniel.


    Madelyn was dumbfounded. After a while, she said, ¡°Mom, don¡¯t be too anxious. I¡¯ll ask Daniel about


    this.¡±


    Madelyn thought even if they separated, at least she was once his girlfriend, so Daniel wouldn¡¯t be too


    ruthless to her.


    She dialed Daniel and it was gotten through soon.


    Madelyn said with an extremely humble attitude, ¡°Daniel, we¡¯ve broken up. I beg you not to vent your


    anger on my father.¡±


    Daniel sneered.


    He said, ¡°Someone has to be responsible for the losses. It¡¯s arge sum.¡±


    Madelyn still wanted to beg for his forgiveness.


    But Daniel changed the topic. ¡°There is another out. But I wonder if you¡¯re willing or not. Madelyn, as


    long as you can be my mistress for five years, I¡¯ll let go of your father.¡±


    Madelyn was stunned.


    She hadn¡¯t expected that Daniel would be so shameless. He wanted both his career, backer and her


    body!


    Madelyn trembled violently due to anger and snapped, ¡°Daniel, you disgusted me.¡±


    Daniel didn¡¯t care about it at all. He chuckled and said, ¡°I think you¡¯ve known who I am long ago.¡±


    Madelyn clenched her teeth tightly.


    She said firmly, ¡°I won¡¯t be your mistress. Not on your life!¡±


    Daniel said angrily, ¡°Then you¡¯d better hire awyer for your father. Madelyn, don¡¯t me me for having


    not reminded you in advance. For such arge sum of economic criminal, he should be sentenced to at


    least ten years!¡±


    ¡°I¡¯ll hire the bestwyer,¡± said Madelyn with a sneer.


    ¡°Do you mean Benjamin rk?¡± Daniel smiled calmly and continued, ¡°Madelyn, did you forget that he¡¯s


    the brother of my future wife? Will he represent you?¡±


    Madelyn felt cold from head to toe.


    Daniel said casually, ¡°Madelyn, I¡¯ll wait for you to beg me.¡±


    ¡­


    When Madelyn ended the call, Camshed out.


    ¡°Son of bitch!¡±


    ¡°His wish! We won¡¯t send you to him even if we have to die!¡±


    Then she suddenly shed tears as she said, ¡°Mr. rk is the brother of this ungrateful man¡¯s future wife.


    How will he help us? Madelyn, can you think of a way out?¡±


    Madelyn looked down at the ground.


    After a while, she said in a low voice, ¡°I know Mr. rk, but we just met once. I¡¯ll have a try.¡±


    Cam was a sensitive woman.


    When she smelled the alcohol from Madelyn and noticed the male jacket on her shoulders, she


    realized what had happened.


    But she didn¡¯t point it out.


    ¡­


    It was not easy for Madelyn to meet Benjamin.


    In the hall of Bravo Legal Firm, the female receptionist said in a polite yet alienated tone, ¡°Sorry, Miss, I


    can¡¯t let you go upstairs if you don¡¯t have an appointment.¡±


    Madelyn was so regretful that she didn''t take Benjamin''s name cardst tame.


    She asked, ¡°When will I be able to see Mr. rk if I make an appointment now?¡±


    The female receptionist checked it on herputer and then replied, ¡°At least half a month.¡±


    Madelyn got anxious.


    Right at this moment, the doors of the elevator in the corner of the hall were opened and a man and a


    woman walked out of the elevator.


    The man was none other than Benjamin.


    He was elegantly dressed in a ck-and-white business suit. He looked just like an elite.


    While the woman was a sexy nobledy in her thirties.


    Benjamin spotted Madelyn as soon as he walked out of the elevator, but he acted as if he didn¡¯t know


    her and focused on sending his client to the door.


    He acted properly and shook hands with the woman to bid farewell.


    The woman said in a coquettish voice, ¡°Mr. rk, thank you for your hard work. Otherwise, I won¡¯t be


    able to divorce him and divide his property so smoothly. You have no idea about how mean he was to


    me after he got his new lover.¡±


    Benjamin smiled calmly and said, ¡°That¡¯s my duty.¡±


    The woman then asked proactively, ¡°Mr. rk, would you like to have a drink with me tonight?¡±


    Madelynnded her gaze on the woman. She thought that that woman did have a wonderful figure that


    many men couldn¡¯t refuse.


    But Benjamin was not an ordinary man.


    He raised his wrist to check the time and then declined, ¡°Sorry, I have an appointment tonight.¡±


    That woman was very sensible. She knew she was not Benjamin¡¯s type.


    She bid farewell coquettishly, got into her car, and then drove away.


    After sending his client off, Benjamin especially stopped before the reception.


    Looking at Madelyn, he asked, ¡°Did you change your mind?¡± Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

    Chapter 3 The Hypocritical Benjamin


    Madelyn was dumbfounded.


    She immediately blushed and raised the paper bag in her hand, saying, ¡°Mr. rk, Ie here to


    return the jacket to you.¡±


    Benjamin reached out and took the bag from her.


    He nodded reservedly and said, ¡°Thank you.¡±


    Then he directly walked to the elevator, not intending to talk more with Madelyn.


    Madelyn got anxious and caught up with him. ¡°Mr. rk, I want to beg you to¡­¡±


    Benjamin pressed the button of the elevator. The doors of the elevator were opened, and Madelyn


    cheekily followed him into the elevator.


    Benjamin looked askance at her.


    He looked at the mirror in the elevator and adjusted his shirt while saying in a nd voice, ¡°I won''t take


    your case.¡±


    Madelyn froze.


    It seemed like Benjamin had learned what had happened to her family.


    She asked in a soft voice, ¡°Did Daniel tell you about it in advance?¡±


    Benjamin locked her eyes from the mirror and smiled faintly. ¡°He¡¯s not qualified to let me help him. Ms.


    Green, it¡¯s just because I like to differentiate private affairs from the business.¡±


    Madelyn immediately understood. He would wee it if she wanted to have an affair with him, but he


    wouldn''t talk business with her.


    She felt a bit embarrassed.


    But Benjamin didn''t intend to force her.


    Although Madelyn was his cup of tea, she was not that attractive to be his exception. Moreover, it was


    broad daylight, he didn''t have much sexual desire.


    The elevator reached the 28th floor after this short conversation.


    Benjamin¡¯s secretary was waiting for him at the door. She was a bit surprised when she saw Madelyn,


    but thanks to her years of experience and professionalism, she didn¡¯t show it on the surface. She still


    said respectfully, ¡°Mr. rk, Mr. Lucas has arrived.¡±


    Benjamin threw the bag to his secretary and ordered, ¡°Send it to the dry-cleaning shop.¡±


    His secretary then left sensibly.


    Benjamin lowered his head to browse the messages on his phone while saying to Madelyn


    nonchntly, ¡°You can go to the otherwyer. By the way, it''s better for a woman to fasten her


    waistband.¡±


    Madelyn thought he was so hypocritical!


    ¡­


    After being rejected by Benjamin that day, Madelyn couldn¡¯t manage to meet him anymore no matter


    what means she resorted to.


    Cam got more and more anxious and keptining, which put Madelyn under great pressure.


    She then asked Vivian Bryant out, her ssmate at university.


    Vivian got married right after graduation. Her husband was the son of a rich man in Gredax and knew


    many people.


    Madelyn asked Vivian if she had any idea.


    They met in a caf¨¦ and Madelyn told Vivian what had happened.


    Vivian cursed at Daniel. When she finally calmed down, she asked curiously, ¡°So, did you have sex


    with Benjamin that night?¡±


    Madelyn blushed and stir her coffee slowly.


    Vivian lowered her voice and said, "Madelyn, bravo! It''s known that Benjamin has high requirements for


    women and he seldom has romantic affairs."


    Madelyn said with a bitter smile, ¡°I can¡¯t find any way out. Otherwise, I won¡¯t bother you.¡±


    Benjamin was very powerful in thewyer circle. And Vivian would easily offend him if she helped her.


    But Vivian was a true friend. She used her interpersonal connections to get Benjamin¡¯s agenda.


    ¡­


    At three o¡¯clock on Saturday, Benjamin would y golf with some guests in a club.


    Madelyn followed Vivian and her husband into the club. But much to her surprise, Daniel was also


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    there.


    Madelyn was dumbfounded when she saw him.


    Vivian pinched her husband¡¯s waist andined, ¡°Why don¡¯t you investigate it? How will Madelyn


    make it when Daniel is here?¡±


    Vivian¡¯s husband apologized in a serious tone, ¡°Madelyn, I¡¯m so sorry. I didn¡¯t investigate it thoroughly.¡±


    When Madelyn was about to say something, she found Benjamin had spotted them.


    He was in a white casual suit. He was tall and had chiseled features. He seemed to be the moon


    surrounded by stars when he stood among the crowd.


    Like that day, Benjamin pretended not to know Madelyn. He only said hello to Vivian¡¯s husband.


    Vivian¡¯s husband felt extremely ttered and smiled ingratiatingly.


    Benjamin acted as if he only noticed Madelyn at this moment.


    Madelyn had fair skin and she especially wore less today.


    She was wearing a white, loose T-shirt and a pair of light-gray sports shorts.


    Her dark brown, slightly curly long hair was tied up into a bun, making her look refreshing and at the


    same time enchanting.


    Benjamin swept his gaze over Madelyn¡¯s fair, long legs and said nonchntly, ¡°I''ve never seen this


    <pdy¡­¡±

    Chapter 4 Stay Focused, Ms. Green


    Since Benjamin wanted to pretend not to know Madelyn, Vivian''s husband sensibly cooperated with


    him. "She''s Madelyn Green, my wife Vivian''s ssmate at university. She''s very talented in art and is


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    now a piano teacher."


    Benjamin chuckled and greeted, "Ms. Green."


    He reached out his hand, looking very kind.


    The noblemen around him had meaningful expressions. They felt somehow envious as they could tell


    that this beautifuldy came for Benjamin.


    Someone booed, "Mr. rk, you''re so lucky."


    Madelyn was a shy girl after all and she had never encountered such a situation. She reached out her


    hand shyly.


    Her soft palm was then grasped.


    Benjamin let go of her hand soon and said with an enchanting smile, "Ms. Green, would you like to y


    with me?"


    With that, he walked toward the golf course, not leaving her any time to refuse it.


    Madelyn could only follow behind him.


    Behind them, Daniel who was holding a golf club looked quite gloomy.


    ...


    Benjamin was in a good mood and he wasn''t annoyed at all when Madelyn told him she didn''t know


    how to y golf.


    "I''ll teach you."


    Others knew what Benjamin meant when they heard his words. Their gazes became more meaningful.


    Madelyn was not a fool. She knew that Benjamin acting intimately with her only meant one thing-


    That was, he didn''t like Daniel!


    Standing before Benjamin, Madelyn allowed him to hug her from behind. She was wearing sports


    shorts today and her exposed fair was clung to his body so tightly. She could even feel the heat from


    his body.


    Madelyn felt her face extremely hot.


    "Stay focused, Ms. Green." Benjamin''s thin lips were pressed again her ear when he whispered. It was


    like he was whispering to his lover.


    Madelyn was dumbfounded.


    Benjamin had grasped her hand and swooshed out the golf club.


    It won apuse from people around. They tried their best to fawn over Benjamin.


    "Mr. rk and Ms. Green cooperated well."


    "Mr. rk is a good teacher."


    "Mr. rk would get it into the hole in the next round."


    ...


    Men were ustomed to ying dirty jokes and they didn''t think it wrong.


    Madelyn, however, got a red face.


    Benjamin pressed his lips against her tender ear, chucked, and asked, "Ms. Green, one more?"


    He was very skilled and the golf rolled into the hole with only one strike.


    People around them apuded again. Benjamin''s handsome face looked enchanting and vigorous.


    Madelyn felt a surge of emotions in her body.


    She intended to seduce him today, but she was all up to his tempo.


    She had an intuition that if Benjamin wanted to flirt with women, 95% of them would not be able to


    resist it. It was just that a man like him wouldn''t degrade himself easily.


    Being embraced in his arms, Madelyn won several scores.


    During the half-time break, Madelyn sat beside Benjamin. He didn''t talk much with her. Most of the


    time, he was talking business with the person next to him, and sometimes they would talk about legal


    affairs.


    Madelyn tried to suck up to her.


    She would hand drinks and towels to him from time to time. And Benjamin enjoyed her services


    naturally.


    Vivian thought Madelyn might achieve her goal.


    She pulled Madelyn into the washroom to have a private talk with her. "I haven''t found that Mr. rk is


    so good at flirting before. I''ve seen him several times at parties, but he always looked righteous."


    Vivian was worried that Madelyn would get obsessed and harm herself instead because based on


    Benjamin''s identity, it was not possible for him to marry Madelyn, not to mention that Daniel was also


    involved in this.


    Madelyn had seen it through. She said in a soft tone, "It''s at most about sex. I won''t be serious about


    it."


    Vivian finally felt relieved.


    When they were about to go out, Daniel pushed open the door and walked in. He then pushed Madelyn


    against the wall and pressed above her, looking quite gloomy.


    Vivian got anxious and reached out, trying to pull him away from Madelyn. "Daniel Campbell, what do


    you want to do?"


    Daniel reached out to block her and then pushed her out of the washroom.


    Then he locked the washroom from the inside.


    Outside the door, Vivian hysterically mmed the door and cursed at him in a low voice, "Daniel, you


    son of bitch. How can you bully a woman? Are you still a man?"


    Daniel didn''t care about it at all as her reprimand wouldn''t hurt him.


    If he was not a ruthless man, how would he corner Madelyn after dumping her?

    Chapter 5 How Many Times Have You Slept with Him


    Chapter 5 How Many Times Have You Slept with Him


    Madelyn couldn''t resist him from beginning to end, just like their gone love.


    She looked at Daniel with only hatred in her eyes.


    Daniel let go of her and sneered. "You want to be Benjamin''s mistress? Are you that capable?


    Everyone in the circle knows that he has high requirements for women and seldom has a rtionship


    with any woman. Moreover... Madelyn, your body would get stiff when a man kisses you. Will you bear


    it if a man takes off your clothes?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to look at him anymore.


    She looked down and said, "It''s my own business. It has nothing to do with you."


    Daniel stared at her condescendingly and said in a gloomy voice, "Or could it be that you still can''t


    forget me so that you deliberately approach Benjamin and always show up before me? Do you think I''ll


    care about it?"


    Madelyn felt disgusted. She looked up at him and snapped, "Daniel, if you haven''t set my father up, no


    matter whom you''ll marry, Eloise rk or Eloise Moore, it wouldn''t have anything to do with me. Don''t


    think too highly of yourself."


    Daniel fixed his eyes on her.


    Madelyn forced herself to look into his eyes. She didn''t want to show her weakness before him.


    After a long while, Daniel curled up his lips into a sarcastic smile and said, "Madelyn, you''ll be willing to


    be my mistress. Let''s wait and see."


    He opened the door after finishing the words and then left.


    The luxurious wooden door made a loud sound and hung danglingly. Madelyn felt her legs weak. She


    tilted her head and leaned against the wall with tears escaping her eyes.


    Daniel was really ruthless.


    They had been in love for four years and she had many things for him, but he returned her with


    betrayal.


    Only until now did Madelyn realize that Daniel just wanted to y with her, and he had never thought of


    marrying her.


    But she had imagined what their wedding would be like many times.


    Shedding tears, Madelyn mocked herself.


    ...


    "Madelyn."


    Vivian''s ear sounded beside her ear.


    Madelyn wiped away her tears and looked up. Then she was stunned.


    Except for Vivian and her husband, Benjamin was also standing at the door.


    Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    He had changed his clothes and was now wearing a dark blue shirt and a pair of steel gray suit pants.


    It was very formal.


    Vivian was worried about Madelyn, but she didn''t intend to mention Daniel. Instead, she exined, "It


    suddenly rained. So we can''t y golf temporarily."


    Her husband chimed in, "Yep. Let''s make an appointment the other day. Mr. rk, can you please


    send Madelyn back? I and Vivian need to deal with some affairs."


    Gazing at Madelyn''s red eyes, Benjamin looked unfathomable.


    After a while, he said in a nd voice, "Of course."


    Vivian heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she also felt distressed for Madelyn.


    Madelyn had no choice but to leave with Benjamin.


    As they had said, it had a fierce gale, lightning, and thunder outside. The parking lot was outdoors and


    Benjamin went there to get his car.


    After a short while, a golden Bentley Continental slowly stopped before Madelyn. Madelyn didn''t have


    an umbre, but she didn''t have the guts to ask Benjamin to get out of the car to pick her up.


    It was only several steps, but half of her clothes were wet.


    After sitting in the car, she felt a bit restless, fearing that Benjamin would feel unhappy.


    Benjamin looked askance at her. He didn''t say anything and just started the car.


    The club was situated at the hillside and the car only reached the foot after circling the mountain for


    several rounds. The air conditioner of the car was on, so after a while, Madelyn felt so cold and


    shivered violently. Her lips also turned pale.


    When they were waiting for the red light, Benjamin threw a jacket to her and said, "Put it on."


    Madelyn thanked him in a soft tone.


    She felt much warmer after putting on his jacket. But Benjamin didn''t turn off the air conditioner. He had


    been paying attention to the conditions on the road.


    It was a rainstorm and there was a heavy traffic jam. There had been several green lights, but their car


    didn''t move forward a bit.


    Benjamin took out a pack of cigarettes from the cab, took out a cigarette, and then lit it up. He


    slowly blew a smoke ring and then asked casually, "How long have you been with Daniel?"


    Madelyn was dumbfounded for a while.


    But she still replied honestly, "Four years."


    Benjamin was a bit surprised. When nced over her long, fair legs, a hint of sexual desire filled his


    eyes.


    He moved his body and then asked nonchntly, "How many times have you slept with him?

 Chapter 6 Dont Play the Game If You Cant Afford It

    Chapter 6Don''t y the Game If You Can''t Afford It


    Chapter 6 Don¡¯t y the Game If You Can¡¯t Afford It


    Benjamin asked directly, and Madelyn was a little embarrassed.


    In fact, she has never had sex with Daniel.


    When she and Daniel were together, they kissed at best, and there was nothing else happened.


    Madelyn was silent for a long time.


    Benjamin did not make a detailed inquiry. He finished a cigarette slowly, and then the line of cars


    moved.


    He pulled over to the side of the road.


    Before Madelyn had a chance to ask, she heard a small sound as he unbuckled her seat belt.


    Then, she was carried on hisp.


    Her coat was peeled off, and she was lightly d inside. Her partly soaked clothes soon wetted his


    gray suit pants and left a dark water stain, which lookedscivious.


    Outside, the wind was gusting and the rain was pouring.


    In front of the car''s windshield, the wipers swung rhythmically from side to side... The scene inside the


    car was sometimes clear and sometimes blurred.


    Madelyn was forced to lie on top of the man and kiss him.


    Benjamin was so skilled that he had Madelyn disarmed and surrendered in his kiss. She fell into his


    arms in a daze, letting him do whatever he wanted.


    asionally she opened her eyes, feeling inwardly surprised to see her slutty reflection on the car


    window.


    Such a slutty woman. Was it herself?


    They were about to cross the line, but a man like Benjamin would not settle this in the car. He pressed


    against the corner of her small mouth and asked in a hoarse voice, "There''s an upscale B&B


    nearby. What about spending the night there?"


    Madelyn sobered up a bit.


    She was dazed by the kiss, but she could tell that so far Benjamin only wanted to have a one-night


    stand with her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pleaded softly, "Mr. rk, wait a minute..."


    Benjamin lost interest.


    He stretched out his hand, took a cigarette and lit it up. After taking a puff slowly, he said, "Don¡¯t y


    the game if you can''t afford it. It¡¯s quite boring."


    Cheekily, Madelyn kissed him again.


    Benjamin did not respond, and he stared at her deeply.


    Madelyn blushed. She had never been like this before. However, her tease was not enough to affect


    Benjamin.


    He snuffed out his cigarette after smoking half of it, and his voice returned to cold. "I''ll send you back!"


    Madelyn was too ashamed to sit on hisp any longer and had to move away slowly.


    Both of them were discontented with the halfway halt.


    Benjamin stared at her face, and his breath got more passionate.


    Madelyn sat back on the passenger seat. She did not put on his coat again and turned her head gently


    to look out of the car window.


    She understood that a girl like her couldn''t influence Benjamin at all.


    She felt despair more or less.


    For the next few moments, there was a silence in the car, and no one spoke.


    Benjamin dropped her off at her home when the rain stopped. He didn''t get out of the car to help her


    open the door. He just nodded at her haughtily.


    Madelyn didn''t want to give up and asked, "Mr. rk, could I have your contact?"


    Benjamin refused, but after thinking about it, he spoke gently, "You can find Owen James. He is also


    the top of the profession."


    After that, he leaned over and picked a business card out of the glovepartment and said, "Mr.


    James'' contact information."


    Their fingertips met when the business card was handed to Madelyn, and they felt each other''s body


    temperature.


    Madelyn raised her eyes in a daze.


    In front of her was Benjamin''s handsome face. He was extremely good-looking, and at this time he


    curbed his temper.


    Madelyn''s heart palpitated.


    Benjamin directly crossed over to open the car door for her and said in a t voice, "Ms. Green,


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    we won¡¯t see each other anymore."


    Even if she were shameless, Madelyn had no way to stay in the car any longer.


    She got out of the car. The car door closed and Benjamin immediately drove the car away.


    Standing in the darkness of the night, Madelyn felt icy cold all over her body...

 Chapter 7 Benjamin, Do You Know Her

    Chapter 7 Benjamin, Do You Know Her


    Chapter 7 Benjamin, Do You Know Her?


    Madelyn went home.


    Cam was burning incense. Madelyn came back, and it gave her hope.


    Madelyn went pale and shook her head.


    Cam got disappointed. She wanted to reproach a few words but finally her heart was softened and


    she only said, "Your clothes are wet. Go take a shower. Do not catch a cold."


    Madelyn nodded her head.


    She had a bath and took her medicine, but she still had a cold and was dizzy.


    At 12 o''clock in the middle of the night, Vivian called and couldn''t wait to know the result.


    Madelyn said it in a hoarse voice.


    Vivian was dumbfounded. "Was Benjamin so abstinent? You hugged and kissed to that extent. How


    could he bear it? Madelyn... Was it possible that he had health problem?"


    Madelyn whispered, "No, I felt he was quite normal."


    Vivian was relieved and she encouraged Madelyn again, "As long as he''s not physically ill, I don''t


    believe we can''t take him."


    Madelyn smiled bitterly.


    She knew in her heart that she could not seduce Benjamin unless he wanted to.


    After chatting with Vivian for a while, she hung up the phone and went back to sleep. It was noon the


    next day when she woke up. Cam was not at home and the house was quiet.


    Madelyn felt more ufortable. She took her temperature, which reached 103.1¡ãCF.


    She forced herself to get up and eat something, then she took a taxi to the hospital.


    The hospital was crowded. It took an hour to her turn, and the doctor prescribed her an IV.


    It was 3:00 p.m. when Madelyn started to put on a drip.


    She was so exhausted from running about for many days that she fell asleep in a in chair after half


    an hour.


    Benjamin apanied his mother to the hospital to get her medication and was about to leave when


    he happened to see Madelyn in the infusion room.


    Madelyn was asleep.


    The back of her pale hand was stuck with a syringe needle, and her sleeping elegant face looked a


    little pale and pitiful.


    Benjamin''s eyes fixed on her for a few more seconds.


    Brianna noticed her son''s eyes. She followed them and then she was a little surprised. "Benjamin, do


    you know thisdy?"


    Benjamin said in a light voice, "I met her once."


    Brianna told her son, "Just now I thought of registering first, but I didn''t expect the hospital filing to be


    moreplicated than before. Thisdy taught me. I didn''t know you know her, Benjamin."


    Benjamin then looked at Madelyn again.


    Madelyn woke up just in time.


    When she saw Benjamin, she forgot about the needle tube on the back of her hand and got up sharply.


    At once, the section of the clear infusion tube turned bright red, and Madelyn let out a low cry as she


    frowned and sat down quickly.


    Benjamin frowned.


    Brianna felt well disposed towards Madelyn and she said to her son, "Benjamin, stay with thedy. It''s


    so sad to see a woman with a sick body."


    Benjamin was reluctant, but when faced with Brianna''s gaze, he agreed.


    There was no time for Madelyn to refuse.


    Benjamin walked his mother to the parking lot, where the driver had been waiting.


    Brianna got into the car and could not help but say, "I think Ms. Green is good. Benjamin... in another


    two years you are 30, meet a good girl then set down."


    Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    Benjamin put both hands inside his coat pocket and smiled lightly.


    --He wondered if his mother would still be enthusiastic if she knew Madelyn was Daniel''s ex-girlfriend.


    He casually responded her with a few words.


    Brianna could not force him and sighed in her heart.


    Benjamin returned to the infusion room. Madelyn sat there lost in thought.


    Benjamin admitted he liked Madelyn''s body, especially her long, white legs. It was quite arousing to


    hold them in his hands and y with them.


    But it could only go so far.


    He only wanted to intervene in her body, not in her life.


    Benjamin sat down next to Madelyn and asked rather coldly, "How many more bottles?"


    Madelyn didn''t expect him toe back, and she didn''t dare to offend him, so she replied in a soft


    voice, "One more bottle and then it''s over."


    Benjamin didn''t say anything. He looked down and dealt with business on his phone.


    Madelyn couldn''t find a chance to talk and slowly fell asleep again.


    When drowsy, she seemed to hear Benjamin talking with the nurse. Another coat was on her legs,


    which covered her exposed legs tightly...

 Chapter 8 You Came Here To Stay With Me

    Chapter 8 You Came Here To Stay With Me


    Chapter 8 You Came Here To Stay With Me


    Madelyn woke up again.


    She found herself leaning on Benjamin''s shoulder, with a big hand grasping her waist. Taking a deep


    breath, Madelyn felt as if she was bewildered by the woody scentbined with the smell of men''s


    aftershave.


    Benjamin was on the phone.


    He was speaking in a low but stern voice.


    It was not allowed to answer the phone in the Transfusion Room, but he was so eye-chatching that the


    girls and women around him were staring at him with an eager look.


    Benjamin hung up and found Madelyn woke up.


    Her pale face was tinged with a blush. Since Madelyn just woke up, the look in her eyes was sort of


    innocent, which was quite attractive for men.


    Benjamin asked indifferently, "How long do you want to lean on me?"


    Madelyn blushed and got up quickly.


    Benjamin picked up the coat and put away his phone. Then he said while staring at her, "I''ll drive you


    home."


    Madelyn was unwilling to bother him, but Benjamin insisted.


    On the way, he answered the phone, and after a while, he said to Madelyn, "I need to go back to the


    apartment to pick up a fax, and I''ll drive you home after I get it."


    Madelyn hesitated.


    She knew what it meant for a woman to go to a single man''s apartment, but she thought to herself,


    "There are plenty of women around Benjamin, so he won''t y tricks on her!"


    Madelyn didn''t reply, which meant she agreed.


    ...


    Benjamin''s apartment was located in the best part of Gredax, which was about 200 square meters, and


    decorated luxuriously like a show room.


    Benjamin asked Madelyn to sit in the living room for a moment, and he went to the study by himself.


    Someone was sending a fax to him. Benjamin received the document, then he called and spoke


    something to the assistant.


    After finishing the official business, Benjamin was about to send Madelyn back when the phone in his


    pocket rang.


    The unique ringtone was for a special person.


    Benjamin''splexion changed slightly, and he took out his mobile phone tensely... Sure enough, it


    was from that person.


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    After a while, he hung up.


    The person did not call back again.


    Benjamin''s mood turned to be extremely bad, and he took out a bottle of spirits from the wine cab.


    After drinking two half-filled sses of wine, he stood in front of the French windows, watching the


    night outside with the ss in his hand...


    Madelyn waited outside for a long time.


    At the beginning, she heard the sound of the fax machine inside, but after Benjamin''s cell phone rang,


    she could hear nothing. Madelyn was worried, so she gently opened the door of the study.


    Benjamin turned his back to her.


    Madelyn couldn''t see his face, but she could feel the loneliness while watching his back.


    She could tell out of her intuition that Benjamin had someone in his heart, and he was thinking of that


    person right now.


    She didn''t want to disturb him and was about to leave quietly.


    "Stop!"


    Benjamin''s hoarse voice came from behind.


    Madelyn''s body froze, and then someone gently held her in the arms.


    Benjamin gnawed at her delicate neck while blowing scorching hot air into her ears, "Didn''t youe


    here to do something intimate with me?"


    Madelyn couldn''t deny that.


    A voice in her heart told her that Benjamin''s mood was unstable now, and even if he slept with her, he


    might not admit it.


    But her hands and feet were weak now and she couldn''t resist him at all.


    It was a seductive night.


    In front of the French windows of a luxury apartment on the 24th floor in the city center, Madelyn''s


    slender wrists were pinched and held up by someone, and firmly pressed to the ss.


    Benjamin was very good at torturing her, and the trivial actions almost made Madelyn go crazy.


    It was Benjamin who was drunk, but now he managed to look at Madelyn soberly while she was lost


    and erotogenic.


    ...


    However, he did not proceed with what he did just now.


    Her eyes became hazy and her red lips were slightly open. She said in a hoarse voice, "Benjamin...


    What''s the matter?"


    The desire in Benjamin''s eyes was held backpletely.


    He took a step back and said coldly, "Ms. Green, sorry for what I have done, since I''m drunk."


    Madelyn was so embarrassed that her face turned pale.

    Benjamin extended some grace finally and reached to zip her dress up. Then he was going to button it


    up.


    "I''ll do it myself." Madelyn''s voice trembled.


    She grasped the button but couldn''t button it up because it was too slippery. Finally, Benjamin did the


    button for her.


    He apologized again.


    To make it up to her, he personally called Owen and exined to him the situation of Madelyn''s father.


    Owen admired Benjamin, who was younger than him. When Benjamin asked for his help, he


    immediately agreed and set up the appointment for Madelyn.


    Benjamin exchanged a few more pleasantries before he hung up.


    He sat behind his desk and lit a cigarette, saying to Madelyn, "Tell me if you have other demands


    besides asking me to represent you."


    Madelyn knew that this would be thest time they would see each other.


    Once, Benjamin would have gotten attached to her body asionally. However, things were different


    now. He was determined to make a clean break with her.


    Madelyn was a sensible woman.


    She pretended to be cool. "It''s just the sex. I have got nothing to lose! Mr. rk, thanks for your


    help..."


    Madelyn got choked up at thest word, but she didn''t want to cry in front of him. She and Benjamin


    were not even friends, and there was no point in being bitter in front of him.


    She said goodbye to him and told him that she would take a taxi back.


    Benjamin still sat there smoking without saying anything, and his eyes were gloomy.


    Madelyn left.


    She didn''t go home immediately, because she didn''t want to see Cam''s disappointed eyes so soon.


    As night fell, Madelyn walked alone on the street. The Ferris wheel in the downtown square lit up with


    colorful lights, which blink on and off. Young couples were hugging and kissing under the Ferris wheel.


    Madelyn stopped.


    She was watching quietly, her eyes moist while the night wind was blowing.


    A gold Continental drove past Madelyn, and Benjamin saw Madelyn.


    She stood under the Ferris wheel looking up at the stars, and there was attachment and affection in her


    eyes... Benjamin would not be so narcissistic as to think she was missing him!


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    He knew exactly who she was thinking about.


    Benjamin stepped on the gas pedal and the Bentley Continental sped off.


    ...


    The next day, Madelyn headed for the music studio to work. It was the highest-end studio of music


    training in Gredax. Her colleagues all knew what happened to her family and could not help consoling


    her.


    Madelyn didn''t want to influence the others, so she said with a faint smile that she was fine.


    At ten o''clock, Facttown Express delivered something to her and said that it was from Mr. rk.


    Madelyn unpacked it.


    It was an exquisite velvet box, and a diamond ne was in there.


    It was dazzling and extremely expensive.


    One of her colleagues whispered to Madelyn. "The ne of this brand with such a big rock should


    be worth no less than 200 thousand dors."


    Madelyn did not want it.


    But there was no Benjamin''s contact information on the package. She knew that he did not want to see


    her again.


    After work, Madelyn went to Bravo Legal Firm. Madelyn put the velvet box on the reception desk and


    asked the receptionist to give it to Mr. rk.


    Although the receptionist was confused, she agreed.


    Madelyn was about to leave when Benjamin walked out side by side with a young girl, whom Madelyn


    had seen in a magazine.


    Eloise, the crown jewel of the rk family, was the only biological young sister of Benjamin.


    Six months ago, Eloise returned after studying abroad and fell passionately in love with Daniel right


    away.


    Just then, Eloise took Benjamin''s arm and acted like a spoiled child. "Brother, I have asked you out


    several times. Why don''t you go to meet Daniel?"


    Benjamin was very offhand with her.


    Eloise pretended to be angry and bickered with him. However, anyone with a discerning eye could see


    that they were very close to each other.


    Madelyn watched quietly.


    She didn''t hate Eloise but justughed at herself...


    Eloise and Benjamin were so close to each other. What made her think Benjamin would help with her


    Madelyn left quietly.


    Benjamin saw her. Then he got Eloise away with just a few words and walked to the reception desk.


    The receptionist immediately handed him the jewelry box. "Mr. rk, thatdy left it behind."


    Benjamin took it and nodded his head nobly.


    Back in his office, he casually threw the box into the drawer. He almost forgot about Madelyn for a long


    time. He thought drily of her only when he wanted to satisfy his sexual appetite.


    Her waist was very tiny, and her legs were straight and long...

 Chapter 10 Many People Were Obsessed With Madelyn

    Chapter 10 Many People Were Obsessed With Madelyn


    Chapter 10 Many People Liked Madelyn


    Madelyn was fully upied in the days that followed.


    She met Owen, who was perfectly capable. After only a few meetings with her, he got everything clear


    in his head.


    In the spacious and bright office, Owen read Madelyn''s materials carefully and smiled gently. "You are


    referred by Benjamin, so I''m not hiding anything from you. Put it a bit more optimistically, the sentence


    can be reduced to two years."


    Madelyn had mixed feelings.


    Owen sat idly with his arms crossed and smiled again. "Benjamin has asked for my help. But why didn''t


    he work on this case on his own? If he deals with this case, there''s a good chance he will get this


    overturned, and the defendant will most likely be found innocent."


    Madelyn was too ashamed to talk about this, so she made up an excuse. "Maybe Mr. rk is not


    avable."


    Owen smiled but didn''t say anything.


    He politely walked Madelyn to the door, which Madelyn appreciated, but she knew the courtesy she


    received here was all for Benjamin''s fake.


    Exiting the elevator, Madelyn was about to take a cab home.


    "Madelyn," someone called out to her.


    Madelyn turned around and saw David, sort of her acquaintance.


    David and Daniel grew up together. And David started his own tradingpany at a young age. When


    Madelyn and Daniel were dating back then, she had seen David at parties a few times.


    David walked up to her and casually asked, "Are you here for business?"


    Madelyn was not hiding anything. "I''m here to see Owen."


    Davidughed. "My dad."


    Madelyn was stunned.


    Was... David the son of Mr. James?


    David was tall and good-looking. As a cool and masculine young man, he was exactly the type of older,


    strong, and independent woman. He said to Madelyn, "Madelyn, how about I buy you dinner? You''re


    my acquaintance, and I will do whatever I can to help you."


    Madelyn hesitated a little bit before she agreed.


    David drove the car over.


    It was a red Ferrari, and it was shy. He said in the car, "No girl has ever been in my car before.


    Madelyn, you are the first one."


    Madelyn always felt that David was ky!


    He was overly enthusiastic!


    They had only met a few times and rarely talked.


    Anyway, Madelyn didn''t want to offend Owen''s son, so she got in the car.


    After she fastened her seat belt, David asked, "What would you like to eat?"


    Madelyn was not fussy, saying, "Thai food!"


    David stepped on the gas.


    In the car, Madelyn hardly spoke and couldn''t stop thinking about the details of thewsuit.


    David didn''t bother her.


    He just gazed at her at a stoplight.


    He had always had a thing for Madelyn, but no one knew about it.


    Daniel was even ignorant of it. Daniel didn''t even know that the ex-girlfriend he dumped was coveted


    by quite a few people. If it weren''t for Daniel, there would be a lot of people out there courting her!


    Half an hourter, David drove his car to a Thai food restaurant.


    There were a lot of customers because the food here was delicious.


    David got a window seat. When it came to ordering the food, Madelyn volunteered, "My treat!"


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Davidughed, "I can''t believe you take the initiative to reach for the bill, Madelyn."


    Madelyn knew he was kidding and said while ordering, "David, don''t make fun of me. Treating you to


    dinner is not that big of a deal."


    David reined it in a little.


    Madelyn invited him for a meal solely for the sake of his father. He had a little self-knowledge at least.


    He looked for a chance to hit on her again.


    Just then, a stunning couple walked into the door.


    The man was handsome, and the woman was beautiful.


    It was none other than Daniel and Eloise.


    Madelyn also saw them. She immediately shielded her face with the menu, thinking that things indeed


    became ridiculous when she encountered David!


    David, however, was afraid that Daniel could not see him.


    He took the initiative to say hello, "Daniel."


    Daniel saw him and was about to speak, but his eyes zed over. Even though thedy sitting across


    from David hid her face, Daniel immediately recognized her as Madelyn.


    Daniel frowned. Why was Madelyn here with David?


    David was kind enough to exin to Daniel, "Madelyn asked my dad to help her with her case. And I''m


    just asking her about it."


    Men were perceptive. David just said a few words, but Daniel was able to guess what was on his mind.


    David took a fancy to Madelyn. He was dering war on Daniel!


    Daniel snickered. "David, are you really that nice?"


    He spoke to Madelyn then, "If you believe him, you will get fooled."


    An intuitive sense of the female creature unsettled Eloise. She asked, "Daniel, you know her?"

 Chapter 11 His Ex-girlfriend and New Girlfriend

    Chapter 11 His Ex-girlfriend and New Girlfriend


    Chapter 11 His Ex-girlfriend and New Girlfriend


    As soon as she asked, things were getting a little awkward.


    Madelyn was so embarrassed.


    David chuckled before Daniel was about to say something unpleasant.


    He said to Eloise in a serious manner, "Madelyn is my friend. Of course, Daniel knows her! Eloise, you


    can rest assured that Daniel is wholeheartedlymitted to you!"


    When he finished, he looked at Daniel sideways with mockery in his eyes.


    Daniel looked embarrassed and took Eloise to take their seats.


    After they left, David greeted Madelyn, "Gredax is such a big city, and we actually run into him.


    Madelyn, I''ll pick a ce where we won''t see Daniel next time, so you won''t get upset."


    Madelyn ordered her food and then said softly, "There''s no need to avoid him. Am I supposed to avoid


    him for the rest of my life after I break up with him? By the way, I''m not the one who did the wrong


    thing."


    David frowned slightly.


    He said suddenly, "I''m going to use the restroom. You can eat a bit of it yourself when the foodes."


    Madelyn did not suspect anything at all.


    After David left his seat, she took her phone to call a couple of parents to confirm the course.


    David didn''te back after ten minutes. Madelyn thought it was weird. At that very minute, a woman''s


    scream came from the restroom... Chaos broke out in the high-end restaurant.


    David and Daniel got into a fight for unknown reasons.


    Madelyn saw blood on the walls and floor. Daniel was staring at David with a grim look on his face.


    An hourter, two men and two women sit in the detention house. David and Daniel were found guilty


    of fighting over a woman.


    Eloise made a call, crying in a squeaky baby voice, "Brother... Daniel got into a fight with someone, and


    we are now in the detention house. Brother,e now! Boohoo... Daniel was hurt pretty bad."


    Madelyn''s head was buzzing, and her brain got scrambled then.


    What? Benjamin wasing here?


    Eloise hung up.


    All she could see was Daniel, and she tended to his wound in sorrow. "Ther''s breaks on the corners of


    your mouth! David hit you too hard!"


    David had a bruise on his face.


    He groaned with pain andined with an innocent face, "He hit harder, didn''t he? I justughed at


    him being a hen-pecked husband, and he did it to me!"


    Eloise felt sweet and med her fianc¨¦ in a cutesy voice, "David is our friend. You made David look


    bad by fighting with him in front of Ms. Green. How is David supposed to woo her?"


    Daniel took out a cigarette, lit it, and looked at David grimly while smoking.


    He was faking!


    How did he provoke Daniel in the smoking section of the restaurant?


    David said before all this, "Daniel, since you broke up with Madelyn, you don''t object to my pursuing


    her, do you?"


    He added, "Even if I don''t go after her, someone else will!"


    "You can''t get the best of both worlds."


    ...


    Daniel sneered.


    Heh! He underestimated David!


    Madelyn did not know about this. She was only afraid that Benjamin would be pissed off when he came


    Her word didn''t carry much weight, and she didn''t dare to offend him!


    Madelyn looked for a chance to slip away, but David badgered her. "Madelyn, you have to take me to


    the hospitalter. My face is so bruised. I will not be fit to be seen like this tomorrow."


    It made Madelyn''s head ache terribly!


    At this moment, Madelyn heard footsteps and raised her eyes subconsciously.


    It was Benjamin.


    He was well-dressed in a ssic British-style handmade suit. He was perfect as the dreamboat in the


    illustrated magazine.


    When he came in, he talked to the policeman without looking this way.


    "I''m here to bail out David and Daniel."


    The police knew his identity and handed him a cigarette politely. "Mr. rk, I''m sorry to ask you to


    woman."


    Did they fight over a woman?


    Benjamin looked nonchntly over.


    His eyes fell on Madelyn.


    Madelyn dressed conservatively today. She was all wrapped up in a champagne silk blouse with a


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    mermaid skirt.


    She was kind of alluring and innocent in that look.


    Eloise interceded for Daniel. "Brother, Davidughed at me. That''s why Daniel got into a fight with


    him... They did not fight for a woman''s favor at all."


    Benjamin withdrew his gaze and swept his eyes over Daniel before asking indifferently, "That''s what


    happened?"


    "Of course! Daniel loves me so much. How could he fight for another woman... Besides, David and Ms.


    Green are not strangers!" Eloise said to herself.


    Benjamin ignored her and went ahead with the formalities.


    Daniel went out first and got into the car.


    Eloise hurried to follow him.


    David coughed lightly and said, "Thanks, Benjamin. I''m gonna need to buy you dinner someday."


    With that, he wanted to drag Madelyn away.


    Benjamin watched them, blew smoke rings slowly, and then said in a t voice, "David, leave us. I have


    something to say to Mr. Green."

 Chapter 12 Ms. Green, Youre Such a Charmer!

    Chapter 12 Ms. Green, You''re Such a Charmer!


    David did not dare to disobey Benjamin.


    Although Benjamin and they were peers, he had done so well in his career that he indeed overpowered


    them.


    David winked at Madelyn. "I''ll wait for you in the car."


    Madelyn forced a smile.


    When David left, a few police officers saw the vibe get weird, chuckled, and said, "Now that Mr. rk


    wants to have a private conversation, we''re gonna get out of here right now."


    Madelyn was speechless.


    When everything waspletely quiet, Benjamin lowered his head and yed with a cigarette


    between his fingers. His fingers were long and strong, and he was still so charming even when he was


    doing something simple like that.


    A momentter, he looked up at her. "Ms. Green, you''re such a charmer."


    Madelyn froze for a moment.


    She instinctively defended herself. "What happened today has nothing to do with..."


    "You''re gonna tell me it has nothing to do with you?" Benjamin''s faint smile was mocking. "Ms. Green,


    can''t you guess why they fought?"


    The blood drained from Madelyn''s face.


    All her exnations were flimsy andme in the face of the powerful Benjamin. He didn''t allow anyone


    to question him because he was Benjamin rk, the best barrister in the country.


    Madelyn was just an insignificant weed.


    She was aggrieved, her eyes filled with tears. "Mr. rk, you can rest assured that I will never get


    involved in your sister''s rtionship."


    Benjamin suddenly got up and walked straight towards her.


    Madelyn did not move a muscle.


    She just stared up at him with watery eyes, overwhelmed.


    Benjamin looked down at her and reached out his palm to touch her delicate face. Madelyn felt


    humiliated and looked away in embarrassment.


    Benjamin spoke in a soft voice, "Ms. Green, you must not resign yourself to this. Daniel was the one


    who cheated on you with Eloise. And now it makes you look like the other woman. You feel wronged,


    don''t you?"


    "No!"


    "Are you still thinking about him?"


    "I''m not!"


    ...


    Benjamin withdrew his palm and smiled lightly.


    He said, "I take your word on it."


    Madelyn was embarrassed and furious. Who was Benjamin to do this to her? She didn''t dare to re


    up and could only say, "Benjamin, you bastard!"


    He didn''t get huffy but just stared at her intently.


    Only after a long time did Benjamin speak very softly, "There is nothing wrong with you except cing


    too much trust in love."


    Madelyn froze for a split second.


    When she came back to her senses, Benjamin had already left.


    ...


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin focused on driving.


    He looked in the rearview mirror from time to time and saw Eloise leaning her head on Daniel''s


    shoulder and beaming with happiness.


    Benjamin''s lips arched with a trace of a mocking smile.


    The gold Continental slowly stopped in front of the restaurant. Daniel got out of the car and made a


    bow to thank Benjamin. They made eye contact with each other, and the looks in their eyes said


    something only both of them could understand.


    Benjamin nodded lightly and drove off.


    Eloise dragged herself to the passenger seat.


    "There is a certain behavior that is expected of ady. Be elegant." Benjamin told Eloise off.


    Eloise didn''t listen to him.


    She held Benjamin''s hand and gave him some gossip. "Ms. Green is quite pretty! I can''t believe David


    likes a woman like her... Benjamin, I think her cup size is C!"


    Benjamin rolled down the car window a bit.


    He just felt his body heat up all of a sudden!


    Eloise was still muttering to herself, "She''s so beautiful. I kind of suspected that she has an affair with


    Daniel... It''s a good thing that she''s David''s woman."


    Benjamin did not say anything and stayed focused on driving.


    After a long time, he asked Eloise in a soft voice. When are you going to marry him?"


    Eloise was blushing. "It''s up to Daniel. He''s building his career right now, and I don''t dare to bother him


    too much."


    There was a red light ahead, and Benjamin stopped the car.


    He turned sideways casually. "Does he love you?"


    "Of course."


    "What does he love about you?"


    Instead of being caught off guard by the question, Eloise held out her thin, white palm and counted with


    great familiarity, "He loves me because I''m well-educated and pretty. I''m from a very good family, have


    great parents and a capable elder brother..."


    Benjamin snorted softly.

 Chapter 13 Are You That Wanton

    Chapter 13 Are You That Wanton


    Chapter 13 Are you that wanton?


    Madelyn was pestered by David and went to the hospital.


    David knew how to pester others well. Although he was only slightly injured, he stayed in the hospital


    for two hours.


    It was already 9 o''clock in the evening when he saw Madelyn home.


    Madelyn was in a very bad mood, but she still apologized to David, "I''m sorry for causing you trouble


    today, David."


    David was in moreplicated moods than hers.


    He thought that he would have a chance if Madelyn broke up with Daniel, but he didn''t expect


    Benjamin would suddenly appear.


    Benjamin was a decent man, but he looked Madelyn up and down as soon as he came here. David


    was not blind, and he could absolutely understand what it meant.


    He didn''t dare topete with Benjamin.


    The rk family had a prominent status in Gredax, and Benjamin was a person difficult to deal with.


    Although David treated Madelyn seriously, he didn''t want to put the whole family at risk to pursue his


    love.


    David looked at Madelyn sideways.


    He said jokingly, "Madelyn, if we are still single in a few years, how about being with me?"


    After a hint from Benjamin, Madelyn somewhat knew what he was thinking.


    She didn''t want to harm David.


    Madelyn shook her head and said, "David, I may leave Gredax after my fatheres out, and I... I


    don''t have any idea about that for now."


    David stared at her quietly.


    He suddenly smiled, looking cute, and said, "I''m kidding you! Do you take it seriously? It''s a little cold...


    Go home! Don''t worry about your father. I''ll talk to my father about it again."


    Madelyn was grateful that he did not say it straight.


    When Madelyn got out of the car and left, David suddenly stopped her, "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn turned to look at him.


    David sat in the car and waved at her... For some reason, Madelyn''s eyes were a little moist.


    She watched the car drive away before walking into the hallway.


    Probably the light bulb was broken, so the light on the first floor was quite dark. Madelyn took out her


    phone and wanted to turn on the lighting.


    She was suddenly held by someone around her waist, and her lips were covered by a warm hand.


    After a mess, she was dragged to the stairwell of the emergency exit.


    "Mmm... Let go of me!"


    As she wished, the man moved his hand away, and a warm thing covered her lips immediately


    afterward.


    The familiar scent made Madelyn stunned.


    It was Daniel...


    Madelyn gritted her teeth and pped him. With a "pop" sound, all the lights around the room were


    suddenly lit up.


    Madelyn exhausted all her strength. She leaned against the wall and panted desperately, like a dying


    fish.


    Daniel looked gloomy.


    "Are you that wanton and anyone can do that?"


    Madelyn raised her head and her eyes were brimmed with tears.


    Instead of being angry, she smiled, "Yes! I''m a wanton woman! Anyone can do that except you...


    Daniel, are you satisfied with this answer?"


    Daniel''s face became even more gloomy.


    He strangled Madelyn''s neck with one hand, and the veins on his forehead kept pulsing.


    "How dare you!"


    "Why don''t I dare? Daniel, I''ve suffered so much because of you. What else would I not dare to do?"


    ...


    Daniel suddenly let go of her.


    He took out a pack of cigarettes, but he didn''t expect the box to be empty. He rubbed it and threw it on


    the ground, then looked at Madelyn, "Leave Gredax! I''ll buy you a vi, and your father will be fine!"


    Madelyn trembled with anger.


    With her lips trembling, she questioned, "You set all this up so that I could be your mistress?


    Daniel, you are so cruel!"


    Daniel looked calm and said, "Madelyn, there is no good in going against me! I have many ways to


    deal with you."


    Cam appeared in the corridor with a mop in her hand.


    Sheid about Daniel.


    Daniel held himself back and did not fight with the woman.


    Cam was out of breath and cursed him angrily.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    "You bastard! If you dare to harass Madelyn again, I''ll kill you!"


    Madelyn had tears in her eyes.


    Cam turned around and said softly, "The Green family never trade their daughters."


    On the opposite side, Daniel sneered.


    Well! Never trade your daughter...

 Chapter 14 Ms. Green, Are You Short of Money

    Chapter 14 Ms. Green, Are You Short of Money


    Chapter 14 Ms. Green, Are You Short of Money?


    Daniel was cruel and had no mercy on the Green family.


    In just two days, all property of the Green family was frozen, including two buildings and the stocks in


    the name of Madelyn''s father.


    Daniel was sure that Madelyn couldn''tst long!


    The court came to seize it, and Cam was so angry that she was sent to the hospital and given an IV


    drip. When she woke up, she was still not satisfied, so she went to Daniel''spany to make trouble.


    But Daniel was not what he used to be. Cam had been making trouble for a long time but saw


    nobody, and she was almost sent to the police station.


    Madelyn coaxed Cam and brought her back to the hospital.


    Camy on the sickbed and said worriedly, "It doesn''t matter that we are homeless, but your father


    still needs a lot of money to deal with the problem. Although Mr. James is an acquaintance, we still


    have to pay back the money we owed him!"


    Madelynforted her softly, "I will find a solution for the money matter."


    Cam felt sorry for her. She gave Madelyn a bankbook in the afternoon, which contained around 150


    thousand dors of her private saving.


    Madelyn knew that it was Cam''s pension money.


    She clenched the bankbook and choked slightly: "I''ll take it first, andter..."


    Cam interrupted her, "I still have a small apartment in the outer suburbs. Although it''s old, it''s okay to


    live in. Madelyn... You must do your best to help your father in thewsuit."


    Madelyn nodded.


    After Cam was discharged from the hospital, Madelyn brought her into the temporary rented house.


    The house was in an old neighborhood. The 645-square-foot house had two small rooms, and the


    decoration was so simple that it could not bepared with the former high-end house.


    After turning around, Cam settled down.


    Madelyn felt so sorry that she asked Vivian to get her two part-time jobs.


    However, Vivian did not agree and said, "You have already needed to work many hours, and you want


    to have two more jobs. Do you want to kill yourself?"


    Madelyn insisted, "I''m fine."


    Vivian guessed that she needed a lot of money, so she had to get her the jobs and additionally lent


    Madelyn all the private savings she had saved.


    Madelyn kept her kindness in mind.


    She went to the restaurant for a part-time job every day after work. Although she was a bit tired, she


    could get 75 dors per hour.


    She was good-looking and yed the piano well, so the manager was willing to hire her.


    It was in this restaurant that Benjamin and Madelyn met again.


    Benjamin did not dine alone. He was with a very attractive woman. They seemed to be working


    together but with a little intimacy.


    Madelyn was not surprised as such a good man like Benjamin would notck women around him.


    She had the self-knowledge that she and Benjamin were different kinds of people, so she chose not to


    disturb him even when she met him, and just nodded her head when she bumped into him in the


    bathroom and said, "Mr. rk."


    Benjamin was smoking in the smoking area, and he frowned when he saw Madelyn.


    He found she had lost a lot of weight.


    Her chin was pointed. Although it looked pretty, he felt like he could break it with a pinch.


    Benjamin knew that the training center Madelyn worked for was very high-end, and it didn''t allow


    teachers to moonlight outside.


    He slowly exhaled a wreath of smoke.


    The smoke diffused between each other. He dusted off the ashes and said, "Ms. Green, are you short


    of money?"


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Madelyn was stunned.


    She did not expect Benjamin to be willing to condescend to speak with her, and only after a moment of


    stagnation did she say softly, "Yes, I am quite short of money."


    Benjamin immediately figured out it was because of Daniel.


    He didn''t grumble for Madelyn but only took a nce over her body gently.


    Though Benjamin was picky, he had to admit that if Madelyn wanted to earn money quickly, it was


    actually very easy for her. She was not only good-looking but also gentle as she looked like a cub when


    she kissed and made out.


    No man would not like her!


    Benjamin was surprised that she could endure hardships and do a part-time job.


    But Mr. rk was respectful of women. He gently nodded and looked very captivating.


    Knowing that he was letting her go, Madelyn hurried into the bathroom.


    When she came out, Benjamin was no longer there, and the beautiful woman who came with him also


    left.


    Madelyn thought that Mr. rk should have an indulgent night.

 Chapter 15 Felt Sorry for Madelyn for the First Time

    Chapter 15 FeltSorry for Madelyn for the First Time


    Chapter 15 Felt Sorry for Madelyn for the First Time


    The restaurant closed at ten.


    Madelyn came out. It was raining outside.


    Pitter-patter, the rain covered the gray road with a shinyyer.


    Madelyn didn''t bring an umbre and used her handbag to cover her head. She ran 200 meters and


    took shelter under a bus stop.


    She waspletely soaked, shaking as she held her phone and tried to call a taxi. It was difficult to get


    a taxi in the rain, and Madelyn waited for a long time but didn''t manage to catch one.


    Across from the bus stop.


    A golden Continental was parked by the roadside. Benjamin sat quietly inside, watching Madelyn.


    He watched her run through the rain. Her clothes were wet... And she was shaking.


    In the passenger seat, sit Eloise.


    In the passenger seat sat Eloise.


    She had been ying on her phone for an hour and yawned boredly. "Brother, didn''t you say you were


    going to take me for a midnight snack? It''s been an hour and you still haven''t picked a ce... Hey, isn''t


    that David''s girlfriend?"


    Benjaminzily wiped the steering wheel and asked, "David''s girlfriend?"


    Eloise tapped on the car window, saying, "Yes, the one who is pretty and hot! Brother, can we give her


    a ride?"


    Benjamin looked reluctant and said, "David''s girlfriend? Not really a good idea, is it?"


    "She''s got a cab!" Eloise said with regret suddenly.


    Benjamin looked over.


    Sure enough, a blue taxi turned around and passed his car.


    Eloise found David''s phone and dialed it.


    "What did you do as Madelyn''s boyfriend, David?"


    "I saw Madelyn earlier."


    "It''s sote and you''re not picking her up?"


    ...


    David answered carelessly, "Ah... I''m a bad boyfriend!"


    Benjamin smiled when he heard this.


    David was so frank!


    Eloise said a few more words to David and hung up the phone.


    She held Benjamin''s arm and acted coquettishly, "Brother, can I invite Madelyn to y the piano at my


    birthday party? She''s having a hard time now, and I''ll pay her 20,000 dors."


    Benjamin started the car and said lightly, "She may not agree."


    Eloise didn''t believe it.


    After a while she remembered something. "Brother, aren''t you going to buy me a midnight snack? Why


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    are you driving home?"


    Benjamin reached for a cigarette and lit it.


    He nced at his sister. "Aren''t you on a diet? Still thinking of midnight snack?"


    Eloise was immediately won over.


    She took out her cell phone and chatted with Daniel, trying to fed herself with love.


    ...


    The next afternoon, Benjamin went back to the rks'' mansion to get a file.


    As soon as he got downstairs, he heard that Eloise shouted. "Brother, that Ms. Green rejected me!


    That''s strange. She gives up 20,000 dors!"


    Benjamin was dressed in a suit and hurrying to a meeting.


    After hearing Eloise''sint, he tapped his sister on the head with the file and snorted, "If she


    agrees, she''s as mad as you are."


    Eloise was angry with a wronged expression on her pretty face. "Mom, look at him!"


    Brianna sat in the hall, demurely drinking tea.


    She smiled and said to her eldest son, "Last time I saw Ms. Green, I knew she is a good girl. I don''t


    know she is David''s girlfriend. What a surprise!"


    Benjamin did not exin the misunderstanding.


    He smiled. "David is pursuing her."


    Brianna put down the English bone China cup and casually said, "Ms. Green is a gentle girl. I think


    she suits you better."


    Benjamin restrained his expression, nodded, and left.


    As Eloise watched her brother leave, she leaned in close to her mother. "I think he is still waiting...that


    girl!"


    Brianna gave a faint smile.


    "Your brother and that girl are not meant to be together because of their characters." She said to her


    younger daughter. "I think he is more likely to be together with Ms. Green."


    Eloise perked up after her surprise.


    She kept it simple. She had a n in her head.

 Chapter 16 Ask Her Out for a Drink Tonight

    Chapter 16 Ask Her Out for a Drink Tonight


    Chapter 16 Ask Her Out for a Drink Tonight


    After work.


    Benjamin declined several invitations and drove to the restaurant.


    At 8 p.m., the restaurant''s best hour, Madelyn sat before the piano and yed.


    Tonight she wore a long, grey dress that showed a little of her shoulders, and her long, tawny hair hung


    soft around her waist.


    It was very beautiful and romantic.


    Benjamin looked through the ss for about ten minutes, then got out of the car, pushed the door and


    walked in.


    He ordered something casually, and just sat there and listened to Madelyn y.


    Benjamin noticed that from time to time, decent men came to talk to her. Presumably they were


    attracted by Madelyn.


    Madelyn always said no politely.


    During a break, Madelyn received a business card.


    [Bravo Legal Firm, Attorney Benjamin]


    Madelyn was stunned. She turned over and saw Benjamin.


    He was sitting in the corner with a ss of aperitif in his hand. He was good-looking, and his simple


    movements were very attractive.


    Madelyn didn''t want to have anything to do with him, but she was even more afraid to offend him.


    She went over anyway.


    "Mr. rk."


    Benjamin nodded and motioned her to sit down.


    As soon as Madelyn sat down, Benjamin saw the eye of a new needle on the back of her hand. He


    guessed that it was because she got wetst night.


    "Have Ms. Green eaten? Take some."


    Benjamin was serious and polite. There was no sign of disrespect and rudeness he showed when he


    just thrown his card.


    Madelyn ced his business card on the table, and said with a touch of restraint, "There is a rule that


    we should not to eat with guests during business hours."


    Benjamin ignored that card.


    He asked her bluntly, "What about after work? Does Ms. Green have time toe over for a drink?"


    It was clear what he meant.


    If she dated him, she would get out of this mess and not have to worry about money.


    It was just a game. He thought Madelyn was with Daniel, so she wouldn''t mind being someone else.


    And Madelyn had feelings when they hugged thest two times.


    Madelyn didn''t even think about it.


    She didn''t know why Benjamin was interested in her suddenly and bothered her.


    She knew her situation and chose her words so as not to offend him. "Mr. rk, I really appreciate your


    help with my dad. I''ll find a way to pay you backter."


    Benjamin was surprised.


    He thought he knew what she meant. She would not have sex with him.


    Money didn''t impress Madelyn!


    Having sex with Madelyn was not necessary for Benjamin. He was just slightly touched by the way she


    yed the piano. Besides, men had bad instincts. They always thought of women who they didn''t have


    sex with asionally.


    Benjamin put away his card. He let it go like a gentleman.


    Madelyn whispered thanks and was so humble.


    When it was a little awkward, David came with a little girl aged 16 or 17.


    "Benjamin!"


    David called warmly, without any of the tension between rivals in love.


    Benjamin motioned, and David dared to sit down. As soon as he sat down, he introduced his sister to


    Madelyn. "This is my sister Florence, a talent girl. And all she needs is a good piano teacher! Madelyn,


    take her!"


    Madelyn was embarrassed by those words!


    Benjamin didn''t care about David''s intention. He pulled out his wallet, took out about 2,000 dors and


    pressed it on the table. "Ms. Green has something to do, so I''ll leave now."


    Madelyn walked him to the restaurant door as a courtesy.

    Benjamin didn''t linger. He got into the car and nodded to her, then he left.


    She was reserved. She didn''t look like the woman who looked for poker games.

 Chapter 17 So Cruel

    Chapter 17 So Cruel


    Chapter 17 So Cruel


    Madelyn came back to the restaurant just as she was about to go on stage.


    David left her alone. He waited until Madelyn got off work and found a ce to talk this thing with her.


    Florence was obedient and Madelyn agreed to teach her.


    David paid high tuition, and he paid two months of tuition at one time. This helped Madelyn a little with


    her financial problem.


    She knew that David was helping her out in another way. Madelyn might have refused in the past, but


    now she had no energy to care about her pride.


    She got home after work, but Cam wasn''t home.


    Madelyn called and Cam said she''d be back in a minute.


    Cam returned about half an hourter. When Madelyn was about to take some food for her, she saw


    that Cam''s arm was swollen.


    "What''s wrong with your arms?" Madelyn helped Cam sit down.


    Cam said casually, "I''m getting old and useless. I just did some things, and my hands is swollen."


    Madelyn thought of something and was shocked.


    She immediately checked Cam''s palm.


    She saw several bright blisters original well-maintenance and delicate palms.


    Madelyn stared in amazement.


    After a long time, her tears fell. She randomly wiped it but could not suppress the mood...


    She treated Cam''s wound and applied medicine to it. Then she went back to the room and took


    Cam 10,000 dors.


    She wouldn''t let Cam do any more work.


    During the night, Madelyn cried for a long time.


    When she got up early in the morning, there were clear dark circles on her eyes. She used a lot of


    concealer but failed to cover them.


    Over breakfast, Cam told her, "Take some rest if you can''t stand it. If things get worse, I''ll even sell


    that small apartment."


    Madelyn reassured her, "It''ll get better, Cam. I''ll take care of myself."


    Cam said nothing more.


    Madelyn packed her bag and went to Music Center to work.


    As soon as she clocked in, a colleague told her in secret. "Ms. rk want to meet you! Madelyn, if you


    don''t want to see him, we will tell you''re off work."


    Madelyn was stunned. Then she saw Eloise.


    Madelyn didn''t hate Eloise, but didn''t want to have anything to do with her either, so she had to bother


    her colleagues.


    But Eloise saw her.


    Eloise came up to her frankly and naturally with a pretty and cute look on her face. "Madelyn, I want to


    know why you won''t y for my birthday party? Don''t you like me?"


    She asked. There was a silence.


    All of Madelyn''s colleagues in the Music Center knew the history of Madelyn and Daniel.


    Now Daniel''s fiancee asked Madelyn to like her, which was too cruel for Madelyn.


    Madelyn was embarrassed by the sympathetic, pitying gazes.


    She whispered to Eloise, "I''m busy that day, Ms. rk. I''m sorry. Please find someone else."


    Eloise wouldn''t give up.


    When Madelyn was at work, she was drinking coffee outside and waiting until Madelyn left at noon.


    She stopped Madelyn.


    "Madelyn, let''s have coffee!" Eloise bothered her.


    Madelyn was good-natured, but unable to calm down in front of Eloise. She walked to a simple


    restaurant where she usually went.


    Eloise, who followed Madelyn with high heels and a designer outfit, asked annoyingly, "You can''te


    to my birthday party, but can you help me with my wedding dress? David says you have good taste.


    Madelyn, help me... Daniel wille overter and we''ll have dinner together. Madelyn, can you give


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    us some advice?"


    Madelyn''s face was pale.


    She was betrayed by Daniel. Her father was going to jail, and she was forced by Daniel to be his


    mistress.


    But Eloise knew nothing. She was still demanding that Madelyn loved her as others did.


    So cruel!

 Chapter 18 Two Women, How to Choose

    Chapter 18 Two Women, How to Choose


    Chapter 18 Two Women, How to Choose?


    Madelyn took a deep breath to calm herself down.


    She said to Eloise, "Don''te looking for me again. Not everyone wants to add to your love story."


    Eloise was used to being pampered and had never been rejected before.


    She still bothered Madelyn, insisting on understanding why Madelyn didn''t like her.


    They walked into an alley.


    Madelyn felt like Eloise wouldn''t give up. She turned around to try to get rid of Eloise, but the next


    second she widened her eyes.


    Eloise was knocked down from behind.


    "It''s her, Daniel''s fiance."


    "Take her. I''m sure that Daniel will pay!"


    "There''s another girl here, take her too. She might be valuable as well."


    Before Madelyn could even shout, everything went ck. She was dragged into a sack and loaded


    onto a vehicle.


    ...


    Madelyn woke up.


    She was in an abandoned warehouse, tied to a broken chair.


    Eloise was also tied up next to her, crying and cursing.


    "Do you know who I am?"


    "My brother will make you pay for this!"


    "Let me go!"


    ...


    A man who looked like a thin monkey pped Eloise for being too noisy.


    "Shut up! Or I''ll tear your clothes off."


    Eloise cried even louder.


    The thin monkey didn''t dare to really do anything to her because the rk family was not easy to mess


    with, especially thewyer named Benjamin.


    He threw a phone to Eloise, saying, "Call your man and tell him to prepare 20 million, not even a penny


    less! And tell him toe alone and not try to fool us, otherwise don''t me us for being ruthless!"


    Eloise was frightened.


    She took the phone and cried as she dialed Daniel''s number...


    At the rks'' mansion.


    The atmosphere was tense. Eloise was kidnapped, and the beautiful Brianna was crying with worry.


    Benjamin and Alexander, along with Daniel, were waiting for the phone call.


    Alexander was not happy...


    Those bastards were for Daniel, and he had to deal this.


    After about two hours of waiting, they finally received Eloise''s call.


    She was gasping and crying on the phone, but finally managed to tell the Monkey''s demands clearly.


    Danielforted her gently.


    Eloise finally stopped crying and felt sweet in her heart. She knew that Daniel loved her deeply and


    couldn''t bear to see her hurt.


    As they were talking, a trembling voice of a woman suddenly came from. "Don''t touch me... Don''t touch


    me!" Daniel''s hand holding the phone trembled. He knew that voice all too well.


    It was Madelyn!


    How could she be with Eloise?


    Daniel thought of those dirty hands possibly wandering on her body, and he felt the urge to kill them!


    But when he looked up and met Benjamin''s deep gaze, he suddenly became clear-headed!


    Benjamin was so shrewd. If he exposed himself, he would have wasted all the effort he had put into


    getting involved with the rk family for such a long time!


    Daniel was ruthless, and he knew that himself.


    He pretended not to know Madelyn and spoke directly to the thugs, "I will bring 20 million over, and you


    must not touch my fiance."


    After speaking, he even felt a little dazed.


    After hanging up the phone, Daniel said to Eloise''s parents, "This was my negligence. Trust me, I will


    bring Eloise back safely."


    Alexander nodded. He still liked Daniel.

    Daniel drove away, leaving only the rk family in the vi.


    Brianna was slightly relieved, wiping away her tears and hesitating for a moment before saying, "I think


    I heard Ms. Green''s voice just now. Did you hear it, Benjamin?"


    Benjamin had already taken the car keys and said indifferently, "I''ll go check it out."

 Chapter 19 Daniel Chose Power

    Chapter 19 Daniel ChosePower


    Chapter 19 Daniel Chose Power


    Daniel drove alone to the agreed location.


    He got out of the car and dragged cash of 20 million dors to the warehouse, demanding the release


    of the hostage.


    The scar on the face of the gang leader, the thin monster, made him look quite intimidating. He took


    some cash and checked the authenticity of the money and. Once confirmed, his eyes lit up.


    "Mr. Campbell is really rich and generous."


    "If you did it earlier, Ms. rk wouldn''t have had to suffer."


    With a signal from him, his men immediately released Eloise.


    She gained her freedom and immediately threw herself into Daniel''s arms, crying, "Daniel, why did you


    take so long? My leg seems to be broken... It hurts... They even said they would rape me if you didn''t


    Daniel held her andforted her.


    But his eyes were fixed on Madelyn.


    Madelyn struggled desperately, but her mouth was stuffed with rags, so she couldn''t say a word.


    She knew Daniel well. Sacrificing her for power was nothing to him!


    From beginning, Daniel didn''t say a word.


    He watched Madelyn struggle and slowly despair...


    The thin monkey smirked and lightly picked up Madelyn''s chin with a knife. "Mr. Campbell, this girl is so


    pretty, so she''s worth at least 2 million. You''re rich, just take her. Otherwise, this girl will be ours."


    Daniel could afford 2 million.


    But he couldn''t afford to take the risk.


    Benjamin already suspected him, and he couldn''t risk Eloise suspecting his rtionship with Madelyn.


    If Eloise found out and broke off their engagement, his years of hard work would be ruined.


    Between power and women, Daniel chose power.


    He didn''t dare to look at Madelyn''s hateful eyes, he turned his back and spoke in a cold tone, "I don''t


    know her!"


    Madelyn had already guessed the oue, and her eyes were empty.


    Tears rolled down from the corner of her eyes...


    Daniel was really ruthless!


    Daniel acted as if he didn''t see and walked towards the car with Eloise in his arms.


    Eloise gently pulled him and whispered, "Is this really a good idea? What if she gets raped? David will


    be heartbroken."


    Daniel pressed her legs.


    Eloise cried out in pain, "It hurts so much...Daniel, take me to the hospital."


    Daniel put her in the car.


    As he stood up straight, he took onest nce at the warehouse.


    Madelyn, don''t me me!"


    After Daniel got on the car, he immediately started the engine because he was afraid that he would


    regret if he was anyter!


    ...


    In abandoned warehouse.


    The thin monkey spat and cursed, "Worthless thing, not even worth 2 million! The only use is tofort


    us."


    He urged the thugs to hurry up, "You can y her, but don''t forget your jobs!"


    The thugs were excited.


    They had never seen such a beautiful woman before. To be honest, she looked better than Mr.


    Campbell''s fiance... If they seeded, it would be so awesome!


    Her eyes were full of fear.


    She hated him more!


    If she had still hoped for mercy from Daniel before, from now on, she only held hatred towards him!


    The thugs were getting restless. Suddenly a crisp sound echoed from the corner of the warehouse.


    The thugs were startled!


    Who was it?


    Benjamin leaned against the gray wall, ying with a lighter in his hand.


    He had a noble temperament and handsome face, and his expensive suit contrasted sharply with the


    shabby warehouse.


    He smiled faintly. "Ms. Green, why are you so embarrassed every time I see you?"


    Madelyn was stunned.


    She slowly turned her head and saw Benjamin walking toward her... Meanwhile, sirens red all


    around.


    She had never appreciated him so much at that moment!Content ? N?velDrama.Org.

 Chapter 20 Mr. Clark, Is She Your Girlfriend

    Chapter 20 Mr. rk, Is She Your Girlfriend


    Chapter 20 Mr. rk, Is She Your Girlfriend?


    In the midst of chaos, Madelyn was lifted up in someone''s arms.


    She leaned against Benjamin''s warm chest, which carried a faint scent of masculine musk.


    The abandoned warehouse gradually faded from view...


    Madelyn''s tense nerves finally rxed, and she gently closed her eyes, feeling dizzy and disoriented.


    "Benjamin." She clutched his shirt, struggling to speak.


    Benjamin lowered his head and saw Madelyn''s pale face.


    Madelyn leaned against him and weakly said, "I got hit in the back of my head, and I might have a


    concussion."


    Benjamin did not waste any time and immediately drove her to the hospital.


    Madelyny in the back seat, and she was very ufortable.


    She felt extremely nauseous!


    With one hand on the wheel, Benjamin made a phone call.


    "Dr. Hudson, it''s me, Benjamin. I have a friend who needs to see you."


    "She might have a concussion."


    "Okay, I''ll be there in ten minutes."


    ...


    After the call, Benjamin nced at the rearview mirror and asked in a gentle voice, "Are you feeling


    ufortable?"


    Madelyn, with her eyes closed, uttered a short and fragmented sound of agreement.


    That brief utterance sounded painful, and it made Benjamin''s heart ache for her.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    He spoke in a low, hoarse voice, "We''ll be at the hospital soon."


    With difort, Madelyn vaguely thought, "I didn''t expect a man like Benjamin to be so gentle."


    When they arrived at the hospital, thanks to Benjamin''s connections, they were immediately taken to


    the emergency room for a scan.


    Dr. Hudson reviewed the scans and smiled lightly, saying, "It''s just a mild concussion! Stay in the


    hospital for observation for two days."


    Benjamin thanked him.


    Dr. Hudson looked at Madelyn and asked with a smile, "Your girlfriend?"


    Benjamin was reserved and replied, "A client, just happened to run into her."


    "Oh, a client!" Dr. Hudson continued to smile. "Benjamin, take Miss Guest to handle the admission


    procedure. I''ll have the nursee and set up an intravenous injectionter."


    Benjamin did not exin further.


    He carried Madelyn to her hospital room and paid for her hospitalization fees.


    Madelyn was extremely grateful and wanted to transfer the money to him, but she was too


    ufortable and had to fight against dizziness and disorientation. She fell asleep, groggy and


    confused.


    When she woke up, the drip needle had been removed.


    Madelyn felt better and turned her head slightly to look outside the window, where the sky was already


    darkening.


    A tall figure stood in front of the window, holding a cellphone and speaking in a hushed tone.


    It was Benjamin.


    Madelyn leaned against her pillow and silently stared at him.


    Benjamin had a great physique, standing at 186cm tall, making him a perfect fit for women! Madelyn


    had interacted with him several times, and she had to admit that even if Mr. rk wasn''t wealthy, he


    wouldn''tck female attention.


    After ending his call, Benjamin turned and met Madelyn''s gaze.


    She was very quiet, with her pale face resting against the pillow, exuding a special kind of fragile


    beauty.


    Benjamin was intrigued by her, but his expression remained calm as he asked, "How much longer do


    you need to stare at me?"


    Madelyn blushed, and softly said, "I want water."


    She had thought that Benjamin would call the nurse, but he poured her a cup of warm water himself,


    sat down beside her bed, and embraced her.


    Madelyn was forced to lean against his chest, and she struggled slightly, "Mr. rk, I can do it myself!"


    Benjamin looked at her.


    His deep eyes did not reveal any emotion, but his expression was quite serious.


    Madelyn didn''t dare argue and simply leaned on his shoulder, taking small sips from the cup in his


    hand. She couldn''t tell for sure, but she felt like he was holding her tighter than before.


    Just then, the door to the hospital room opened.


    Dr. Hudson walked in and saw the intimate scene in the room. He smiled amiably, asking, "How are


    you feeling, Miss Guest?"

 Chapter 21 She Should Recover Faster If Benjamin Took Care of Her Personally

    Chapter 21SheShould Recover Faster If Benjamin Took Care of Her Personally


    Chapter 21 She Should Recover Faster If Benjamin Took Care of Her Personally


    Madelyn was very embarrassed.


    But Benjamin had a thick skin, and he insisted on feeding her a ss of water. Then he let her go and


    talked to the doctor, "It''s only right to take care of Ms. Green since she was here because of Eloise."


    Dr. Hudson had a good temper and smiled, saying, "Oh, that''s how it is! Your rtion changed so


    quickly!"


    After examining Madelyn and confirming that there were no problems, Dr. Hudson smiled and said,


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "With Benjamin personally taking care of you, you should recover faster."


    Madelyn blushed!


    Dr. Hudson left with a smile.


    Madelyn took out her phone to call Cam, but Benjamin interrupted her, "I helped you make the call to


    request leave and also informed Cam that you''ll take a business trip for a few days."


    Madelyn said nothing.


    As if unaware of her displeasure, Benjamin added calmly, "I''ll have my assistant bring in some food for


    youter."


    Madelyn couldn''t stand it anymore.


    She asked Benjamin, "Are you holding me captive because you''re afraid I''ll ruindy Eloise''s


    happiness?"


    Benjamin leaned against the bedside table, texting his assistant, and chuckled lightly at her words.


    "What can Ms. Green use to ruin it?"


    "Her body? Or her unbearable past rtionship?"


    "I thought Daniel had already made his choice. Ms. Green, are you too slow to understand it?"


    ...


    He was extremely handsome, but he didn''t hold back with his words, causing any goodwill Madelyn


    had toward him to disappear instantly.


    She turned around intentionally, pretending to ignore him.


    Benjamin crossed his long legs, looking at the woman lying on the hospital bed, and let out an almost


    inaudibleugh.


    She seemed be angry!


    About half an hourter, Benjamin''s secretary brought dinner.


    The secretary saw Madelyn and remembered meeting her at thew firm once.


    He thought it was just a one-sided entanglement, but he didn''t expect his boss to take care of Madelyn


    personally and even used his connections to help her out.


    There was a hint of ambiguity in the secretary''s eyes.


    Madelyn wasn''t in a good mood and didn''t pay attention to him. She was actually hungry. She thanked


    him, then opened the wooden lunchbox.


    It contained meat porridge that was easy to digest and suitable for patients.


    It smelled really good!


    Madelyn felt Benjamin''s thoughtfulness and her heart warmed up. She was good-natured, and because


    of being moved she made apromise first and said, "Thank you for today, Mr. rk."


    Benjamin hadn''t nned on having dinner with her.


    He still had his legs crossed and was dealing with business on his phone while casually saying, "You


    don''t have to, Ms. Green! Besides, I did this for some intentions."


    Madelyn hesitated for a moment.


    She owed him a favor, and he was a powerful figure. She was humble and said, "I''m afraid my petty


    mind can''t understand your grand ns."


    Benjamin looked at her.


    Madelyn let him stare.


    Deep down, she knew that he liked her face and body... Because there was some tenderness in his


    eyes.


    Benjamin had looked enough and slowly put away his phone. "Really?"


    He showed too much pressure, and Madelyn didn''t dare look at him anymore. She pretended to drink


    her porridge and said, "Yes, really."


    Benjamin seemed satisfied and left with his assistant.


    The hospital room became quiet.


    Madelyny alone on the hospital bed, feeling that the room was empty... She still felt ufortable,


    so she closed her eyes and fell asleep.


    When she woke up again, it was already nine o''clock at night.


    Because it was the VIP ward, it was especially quiet at night, with only the sound of rustling leaves and


    insects outside.


    Madelyn walked to the window and opened it.


    There was a garden downstairs, with lush trees and various flowers and nts in full bloom for early


    summer.


    Madelyn suddenly wanted to go for a walk downstairs.


    Soon, she stepped on the soft green grass, smelling the fresh scent of grass, feeling veryfortable.


    Under the moon and stars, everything was quiet.


    As Madelyn was nning her nd future, a soft and tender voice came, "Daniel, can you kiss me


    again..."

 Chapter 22 Madelyn Didnt Care Who He Was with

    Chapter 22 Madelyn Didn''t Care Who He Was with


    Chapter 22 Madelyn Didn''t Care Who He Was with


    Madelyn was surprised.


    Eloise?


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    Eloise was also staying at this hospital?


    She looked there and saw that under the moonlight, a couple deeply in love, holding each other tightly


    and kissing passionately.


    Daniel hugged his fiancee''s waist and held her face as if it were precious.


    Despite his bad temper, he coaxed Eloise like a child, saying, "This is thest time tonight! You should


    go to sleep now."


    Eloise hugged his neck and seductively asked, "Daniel, we are engaged. When will we have sex?"


    Just as Daniel was about to respond, he noticed Madelyn in the corner of his eye.


    Madelyn had been standing on the corridor for who knows how long.


    Suddenly, Daniel pressed Eloise against his heart, not wanting her to notice Madelyn.


    But he himself kept his eyes fixed on Madelyn.


    He never expected Madelyn to be saved. He had already decided to sacrifice her, but to his surprise,


    Madelyn returned safely.


    Eloise had no idea what Daniel was thinking.


    She was immersed in the tenderness and sweetness, lightly touched her fiance''s chest with her


    delicate fingers, urging him softly, "Daniel, what are you waiting for?"


    Daniel only responded absentmindedly.


    He wanted to see Madelyn''s reaction, but Madelyn just slightly pursed her lips and quickly turned


    away...


    Daniel''s heart sank.


    Madelyn used to love him so much that she would feel upset if he was even slightly unhappy, and tried


    all means to make him happy.


    But now, when he was going to be with someone else, Madelyn was indifferent!


    He didn''t believe it... He didn''t believe that Madelyn had no feelings!


    "Do you really want it that badly?"


    Daniel asked calmly.


    Then, Daniel gently pulled the girl in his arms by her long hair and leaned down to passionately kiss


    her...


    He was eager and fierce.


    Eloise couldn''t take it anymore and lightly punched his shoulder,ining, "Daniel, what''s wrong


    with you?"


    Daniel stopped.


    His gaze was deep, and gloom in his eyes was so deep that it couldn''t dissipate.


    He suddenly picked up Eloise and walked towards the VIP ward. Eloise shyly leaned on his shoulder


    and asked softly, "Do you really want me?"


    Daniel made a soft sound of affirmation.


    As he turned into the corridor leading to the ward, he swept his eyes around, but Madelyn was nowhere


    to be found.


    Daniel''s eyes dimmed.


    Back in the private ward, he had sex with Eloise for the first time. Eloise was shy but bold. Daniel


    couldn''t say that he didn''t enjoy it at all, but... there was always something missing!


    At the end, it was already dawn.


    Daniel sat on the wooden chair of the terrace. A box of cigarettes was on the small table, and he had


    smoked four or five of them already.


    Despite having everything he wanted - a beautiful fiancee and all the benefits that came with her, and


    he just had satisfied sex, he felt empty inside.


    He couldn''t forget Madelyn''s look of derision and indifference.


    A pair of soft arms hugged him from behind.


    Eloise pressed against his back and asked gently, "What are you thinking about?"


    Daniel stubbed out his cigarette and pulled his fiancee into his arms, whispering in her ear, "Eloise, no


    one is better than you."


    Eloise leaned against him and took his hand, "You need to be good to me, you know? Love me forever,


    and always be considerate of me."


    Daniel''s throat moved slightly.


    He didn''t love people, he only loved power.


    Madelyn wasn''t an exception, and neither was Eloise. He just chose what was more advantageous to


    him.


    After a while, Eloise suddenly spoke up, "I saw Ms. Green just now! Daniel, are you still ming


    yourself for not being able to save her? Don''t worry, my brother saved her and took care of her


    himself... You can rest assured."


    Rest assured?


    Daniel sneered.


    Then his mood sank, and he remembered Benjamin''s unusual attitude towards Madelyn... "

 Chapter 23 Daniel, How Will You Compensate

    Chapter 23 Daniel, How Will You Compensate


    Chapter 23 Daniel, How Will You Compensate?


    Madelyn woke up early in the morning.


    Beside her pillow was a delicate square velvet box.


    Madelyn was so surprised and opened it.


    Inside was a dazzling diamond ring. It was Tiffany''s ssic model, with a visible carat weight.


    Madelyn guessed who gave it to her.


    She found it ironic.


    Daniel had forced her into a dead end, almost causing her to be raped, yet he still had the audacity to


    send her a diamond ring!


    Just as she was about to ask a nurse to return it to him, the door opened.


    Daniel walked in and saw Madelyn looking at the ring. He spoke in a rare gentle tone, "You''re awake?


    Do you like it?"


    Madelyn closed the box and smiled faintly. "I do."


    "What woman doesn''t like diamonds?" Daniel said.


    "But Daniel, I don''t want your things." Madelyn replied.


    ...


    Madelyn thought she would feel disgusted and angry when she saw his face again, but she was


    surprisingly calm, as if he were a stranger.


    Maybe after despair, she didn''t loved him anymore!


    Daniel looked down and said softly, "Madelyn, this is mypensation to you. Nothing more."


    Madelyn raised her head and held back tears. "Compensation? How canpensate me? If you truly


    feel sorry for me, let my father go! I''ll leave Gredax with my parents immediately and never appear in


    front of you again, nor will I stand in your way! Daniel, please, I beg of you. Can you do that?"


    But Daniel couldn''t do it!


    He put his hands in his pockets and stood up straight. "Let''s talk again when you''ve thought it through."


    Madelyn couldn''t hold back any longer. She threw the diamond ring at him with all her strength.


    "Daniel, get out!"


    The hard little box scraped Daniel''s forehead and left a thin cut...


    But he didn''t care.


    He bent down to pick up the small box and put it in his pocket. One day, he would personally put this


    diamond ring on Madelyn''s finger and make her willingly be his woman.


    "This was an ident." He said.


    Madelyn closed her eyes and told him to leave!


    Daniel wanted to say more, but the door to the ward opened again.


    It was Benjamin.


    He was dressed very elegantly today, wearing a ck and white ssic suit, with a snow-white shirt


    ironed t, making his handsome face even more attractive!


    The atmosphere in the ward was subtle, but Benjamin acted as if he had not noticed.


    He nodded slightly at Daniel and walked to Madelyn''s bedside, taking out a payment slip from his


    pocket.


    "Ms. Green, your medical bill is a total of 22,600... Can you transfer it to me on WeChat?" Benjamin


    asked.


    Madelyn had not yet calmed down, and Benjamin took her phone from her.


    He leaned against her bed and scanned the QR code to add her on WeChat.


    "Ms. Green, you''re really poor. You only have 18,000?"


    Madelyn''s face turned red with embarrassment.


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    Benjamin said seriously, "You still owe 4,600. How about you y golf with me another day, and you


    don''t have to give 4600 to me."


    Madelyn looked up at him.


    Her chestnut waist-length hair hung softly, looking delicate and soft all over.


    She ced her hand on Benjamin''s arm and whispered, "I can y with you now."


    Benjamin nced at her and then at Daniel. He smiled ambiguously and said, "Daniel, why don''t you


    give us some space? Ms. Green can''t do it with you here!"


    His imposing manner was enough to make Daniel feel pressured.


    Daniel clenched the velvet box tightly, and his knuckles turned white before he managed to force a


    smile. "I won''t disturb you!"


    He opened the door and left without looking back!


    The door closed, and Madelyn used up all her strength to lean against the bed and murmured, "Mr.


    rk, thank you!"


    Benjamin put down her phone and asked teasingly, "Didn''t you say you would y with me?"


    Madelyn looked up unexpectedly and said, "No... Mr. rk, I was just cooperating with you earlier."


    Benjamin stared at her with his deep ck eyes, showing no emotion.


    With his good looks and the way he was staring at her, any woman would feel something...


    Madelyn felt her body tremble slightly as a woman''s consciousness slowly awakened.

    Benjamin leaned down.


    Instead of directly kissing her, he held Madelyn''s face in his hand, and the slightly rough fingertips


    lightly scraped her delicate cheeks. Then, her hair was held, and he gently stroked and kneaded it.


    Such slowness was the most torturous.


    Madelyn had never experienced this before, and she couldn''t bear to moan softly, "Benjamin!"


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    ...


    "Don''t call me Mr. rk anymore?"


    His straight nose pressed against hers. They were so close, and their breaths mixed together.


    Benjamin could kiss her at any moment.


    Madelyn clutched his shirt tightly, her heart beating rapidly... she wanted to close her eyes.


    But Benjamin didn''t allow it. He lightly tugged at her long hair and spoke in a hoarse voice, "Madelyn,


    open your eyes and watch us kiss."


    It was the first time he had called her by her name, and for some reason, Madelyn was turned on


    intensely.


    She opened her eyes, her lips trembling slightly, and slowly pressed them against his.


    Benjamin suddenly hugged her tightly.


    They were in a hospital room, and they both felt something special... What started as a light kiss


    gradually became more intense!


    Benjamin couldn''t control himself anymore. He whispered, "Madelyn, are you sure?"


    Madelyn had a brief moment of having a clear head.


    She instinctively wanted to push Benjamin away, but she thought that her emotional investment over


    the past few years had been a joke. Her chastity had no meaning at all. With this in mind, Madelyn


    actively offered up her lips.


    In a daze... she even felt a sense of revenge!


    Benjamin ended the kiss.


    His pride as a man wouldn''t allow him to continue, so he let go of Madelyn and leaned to the side to


    straighten out his messy shirt. He saw her desire from her face and spoke in a t tone, "Ms. Green,


    you''re already injured like this. Calm down!"


    Madelyn waspletely awake now, feeling embarrassed and ashamed!


    Benjamin didn''t let her continue to feel embarrassed. He took out a snow-white cigarette from his


    pocket and yed with it between his fingers.


    After a while, he suddenly spoke, "You must be curious why I didn''t stop Eloise from getting engaged to


    Daniel, given his character."


    Madelyn waited for Benjamin to continue speaking.


    Benjamin snapped the cigarette in half and said in a little annoyed tone, "Half a year ago, Eloise


    attempted suicide by cutting her wrists to be with Daniel."


    Madelyn was stunned. She had never known this before.


    Looking back at Benjamin, she spoke with a trembling voice, "Mr. rk, I understand now! I promise


    not to provoke Ms. rk... Consider it my repayment to you."


    Benjamin said nothing.


    He was speechless!


    Clearly he just exined the situation, but Madelyn interpret it that way. With Benjamin''s temperament,


    he wouldn''t say much more. He just nced deeply at her and spoke lightly, "How did someone as


    stupid as you be a teacher? No wonder you were fooled by a man!"


    After he finished, he left directly.


    Madelyn remained stunned.


    She took out her phone to transfer a few thousand from her bank card to her WeChat bnce, but


    when she looked at her phone, she was stunned.


    Not only did Benjamin not transfer her 18,000 dors, he also transferred an additional 100 thousand


    dors to her.


    Madelyn looked at the chat record with Benjamin''s name and felt indescribable feelings in her heart.


    Except for the rtionship of Eloise, Benjamin had been really good to her, although he was


    asionally sarcastic.


    She hesitated for a moment, then sent a message.


    "Mr. rk, thank you."


    As soon as Benjamin sat in the car, he received Madelyn''s message and saw that she hadn''t epted


    the transfer.


    He thought for a moment and sent her several messages in a row.


    "Thank me for what? Kissing you?"


    "If you feel bad about epting the 10,000 dors, Ms. Green. You can apany me to y ten


    rounds of golf."


    "If that doesn''t work, how abouting to my house and staying up all night to look at cases


    together?"


    ...


    Madelyn received the messages.


    Her face was hot, and she wasn''t naive enough to take them literally.


    It was hard to tell that Benjamin could be so bad and wild!


    Madelyn was about to transfer the full 22,600 dors to him when she received another message from


    him.


    "Please ept it! Consider it my apology on behalf of Eloise."


    Madelyn looked at the message quietly for a long time... She suddenly felt a little envious of Eloise.

    Chapter 25 He Seemed To Regret


    Chapter 25 He Seemed To Regret


    Daniel did not leave right away.


    When Madelyn was pressed on the hospital bed by Benjamin and kissed, he was outside.


    Daniel had seen how Madelyn looked like when she was kissing. His body was tense because of


    anger, like a fully drawn bowstring, ready to break at any time.


    Finally...


    When Madelyn couldn''t help making a slight sound, Daniel couldn''t bear it and punched the wall on the


    opposite.


    Blood sttered everywhere.


    Daniel''s palm was dripping with blood.


    But he didn''t seem to be in pain, and he was just standing there with a sullen face.


    For a moment, Daniel wanted to rush into the ward, and take Madelyn away while Benjamin was at


    present. But Daniel was aware that as soon as he stepped in, his engagement with Eloise would be


    void immediately.


    What he had strived for so long woulde to nothing in an instant!


    Daniel left suddenly, and he drove to a nearly-new neighborhood.


    He had lived here for two years, and the security guard still remembered him. When he drove in, the


    security guard warmly greeted him, "Wee back, Mr. Campbell!"


    Daniel nodded expressionlessly.


    He went upstairs and opened a door. The apartment, which was about 80 square meters, reminded


    him of all the memories with Madelyn.


    At that time, the Campbell Group was on the verge of bankruptcy, and all the members of the Campbell


    family were crowded in this old house. Even Gabrie, who used to be noble, had to bargain to buy


    some cheap and rotten vegetables in the vegetable market, let alone living a privileged life...


    They had a tough time and struggled to live at that time.


    In order to protect his self-esteem, Madelyn often came over to cook for him, and helped him time and

    again.


    She was so silly!


    She thought Daniel loved her, but in fact, he had been taking advantage of her all the time.


    Madelyn had never figured out the truth!


    Until now, Madelyn still believed that Samuel was in trouble due to her. She never knew that Samuel


    was just the scapegoat chosen by Daniel a few years ago, and that she herself was just a tool for him


    to gain Samuel''s trust.


    She was so stupid as a tool that in the end Daniel was unwilling to let her go.


    Well, even if he managed to get what he wanted, where could he find such a silly woman who just


    loved him?


    He wanted to keep her with him!


    Then she could cook for him, rub his forehead when he was tired, or maybe he would allow her to have


    his baby!


    Even if it would be more troublesome to find someone else to rece Samuel!


    Daniel went to the balcony and took out a cigarette to puff slowly. After finishing about 4 or 5 cigarettes,


    he called the secretary.


    "Is there anything wrong with Samuel? Is it the case acted by Mr. James?"


    The secretary nodded and said yes.


    Daniel spoke a few words expressionlessly.


    The secretary was shocked.


    She had been with Daniel for a long time and knew the rtionship between Madelyn and him, so she


    couldn''t help interceding for Madelyn at the moment, "Mr. Campbell, Ms. Green... Anyway..."


    Daniel said coldly, "Just do as I said! Make sure to settle all the matter once and for all."


    The secretary was silent for a moment and said yes.


    Just then, there was a call from Eloise. Daniel was upset and didn''t want to answer it, but Eloise ketp


    calling. Finally, he picked it up.


    "Daniel, where have you been?"


    "My hands hurt so much. Can youe over and apply medicine for me?"


    "My parents wille over tomorrow. Maybe they will discuss the date of marriage. Why not ask your


    mum toe over?"


    Daniel''s mind was upied by the image of Madelyn, who was kissed by Benjamin, which made his


    whole body numb. Eloise was pushing him so hard that he had to reply, "I see."


    After hanging up, he decided to let it go at that!


    Once men became powerful, they would get what they wanted! Even after 20 years, he would not


    regret the decision he made today.

    Chapter 26 All The Family Members Are Shameless


    The next afternoon, Madelyn was discharged from the hospital.


    Holding the phone in her hand, she was hesitating whether to call Benjamin, or send a message to


    show her gratitude.


    After struggling for a while, she decided not to do so!


    Madelyn went through the discharge procedures, and prepared to go home with her luggage, and then


    went to the Music Center for work in the afternoon.


    When she walked out of the inpatient department, she ran across an acquaintance at the door.


    They were Daniel''s mother and his sister Sophia.


    They were walking and talking with severalrge bags of imported fruits. They must havee to see


    Eloise. When they bumped into Madelyn, everyone was sort of uneasy.


    Madelyn nodded slightly and was about to leave.


    Gabrie stopped her, and spoke to her friendly, "Madelyn, I''ve got something to tell you."


    Sophia tugged on Gabrie''s sleeve, and said in an arrogant voice, "Mom, Daniel has broken up with


    her! Why bother to talk with her?"


    Gabrie was very shrewd, and she knew exactly what her son had done. What she had to do now was


    to tell Madelyn not to appear in front of Daniel, so as not to destroy her son''s happiness.


    Gabrie asked her daughter to leave first.


    Sophia stomped her feet and left with a soft snort.


    When Sophia left, Gabrie said to Madelyn smilingly , "Madelyn, I ought to treat you a cup of coffee


    and sit down to have a chat, but Eloise''s parents want to talk about the wedding date today, so I''m not


    avable now."


    Madelyn felt cold in her heart.


    Once upon a time when the Campbell family was in trouble, Madelyn took out all her savings to help


    them out. Daniel''s mother kept saying that Madelyn was the only daughter-inw of the Campbell


    family, and that if Daniel should betray her, she would back her up.


    But now her attitude had changed in such a short time!


    Madelyn smiled lightly, in fact, she thought it was not necessary to do so.


    Seeing the coldness on her face, Gabrie also felt sort of embarrassed, but she still couldn''t help


    saying something more, "Actually, you are a good girl! It''s a pity that you broke up with Daniel. Now that


    Daniel has found his own happiness, you should also strive for your own happiness and don''t waste


    time on him any more."


    Madelyn felt disgusted.


    She nned to ignore what Gabrie had said at first, but when she saw the person who appeared at


    the corner just now, Madelyn said softly but firmly, "Don''t worry, Auntie, I will never waste any more


    time on him!"


    Gabrieughed, "If you can think that way, I will feel at ease!"


    She turned around to look for Eloise, but only to see her son''s gloomy face.


    Daniel put one hand in his pocket, and said coldly while staring at Madelyn, "Mom, go upstairs!"


    Gabrie smiled reluctantly and left, but Daniel did not leave.


    Madelyn''s whole body was cold.


    She not only lost her love, but also felt embarrassed that her sincere payment was trampled on...


    Daniel sneered, "Feeling suffering? Actually, no one asked you to do that! Madelyn... the love for you is


    just the self-sacrifice that has only touched yourself! But you''re not stupid, since you know how to


    attach yourself to a powerful person!"


    Madelyn sneered back, "Thank you for your help, Mr. Campbell."


    Daniel''s beautiful eyes were stained with ayer of darkness. He smiled instead of being angry, "Now


    that you are so close to Benjamin, why didn''t he help you? Madelyn, you can''t take control of a man


    like Benjamin, and you will regret one day!"


    Madelyn looked down and smiled lightly, "Why will I regret? Daniel, what else do you think I will lose?"


    Madelyn didn''t exin, and left without looking back!


    Daniel stood there and sneered after a long while, "Madelyn, don''t push me!"


    At this moment, Eloise called, and spoke in an artificial voice, "Daniel, where are you? My parents are


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    here, and they are all waiting for you..."


    Daniel gentlyforted her, "I''lle over right away."

 Chapter 27 Whats The Relationship Between Us

    Chapter 27 What''s The Rtionship Between Us


    Chapter 27 What''s The Rtionship Between Us


    After Madelyn left the hospital, she went to the detention center to visit her father.


    Samuel looked well. He was a little cker and thinner than before, but in good health.


    Madelyn felt relieved.


    She went on with her busy life.


    She worked in the music center during the day, and taught several students in addition to the work in


    the restaurant at night. She felt very tired every day, but could earn more.


    A week had passed quickly.


    This week, she hadn''t seen Benjamin, but she got to know that he had gone to Esrand by reading news


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    in the entertainment section of the newspaper.


    He had attended a celebrity reception in Esrand.


    At the reception, Benjamin wore a ck velvet suit, a snow-white organ shirt, and a ck bow tie.


    Standing in the crowd, he was dazzling and extremely dignified.


    And next to him was a beautiful woman. Benjamin''s hand gently wrapped around her waist, which


    made them seem to be an adorable couple.


    Madelyn recognized that she was a top star, who had been awarded as the best actress. At this


    moment, she was resting on Benjamin''s side like a sweet little bird, with a look of ambition to marry into


    a wealthy family.


    Madelyn gently put down the newspaper.


    She thought to herself that fortunately, she didn''t think that Benjamin treated her as a special person. It


    was normal for an excellent man like him to be surrounded by women.


    Two dayster, Madelyn worked part-time at the restaurant.


    Benjamin came.


    He was dressed in a dark blue shirt, iron gray trousers, and a ck windbreaker.


    He looked mature and handsome.


    Benjamin came here alone, and ordered some food, but he didn''t eat much. Instead, he just leaned


    against the chair and listened to Madelyn y the piano quietly.


    Madelyn was not sure why he came, and she could only try to ignore the burning gaze.


    At ten o''clock, the restaurant was closed.


    Madelyn packed up and got ready to leave.


    When she left, Benjamin''s seat was empty.


    Madelyn breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time she felt that she was stingy, since she should


    have greeted him and thanked him for taking care of her in the hospital.


    Walking out of the restaurant, a golden Continental stopped in front of her. The window was rolled


    down, and she saw Benjamin''s handsome face.


    "Get in the car." He said briefly.


    After hesitating for a moment, Madelyn finally opened the door and got into the car. The main reason


    was that his car was too ostentatious, and she didn''t want to attract too much attention.


    Benjamin started the car, and after a while, he nced at her and reminded, "Seat belt."


    Madelyn blushed and started to buckle up quickly.


    She stared at Benjamin. At this moment, he was only wearing a shirt and trousers, and his coat was


    casually ced on the back seat of the car.


    Benjamin said softly, "Do you think I''m handsome?"


    Huh?


    Madelyn''s face was more blushing.


    Benjamin''s car stopped at a crossroad, and he turned to look at Madelyn, with an implication that both


    of them could understand.


    Madelyn couldn''t bear such ambiguity, and she said after thinking for a while, "Mr. rk, thank you that


    day."


    Benjamin didn''t say anything.


    Madelyn ventured to say again, "There is a bus stop nearby, and the night bus is still running here."


    Benjamin''s look was deep and serene, and finally he said, "Madelyn, stay with me for a while."


    He called her Madelyn...


    Madelyn could not bear to see him like this!


    Benjamin drove the car to the foot of a mountain without a trace of human habitation around, which


    was a good ce to do something intimate.


    Madelyn just got to know his intention when they arrived there.


    Benjamin was not in a good mood obviously. He took out a cigarette, lit it up, and started to smoke.


    Holding the cigarette in his slender fingers, he just kept putting them in and out of the window now and


    then.


    Madelyn was attracted by such a picture of him.


    It was indeed cold at the foot of the mountain. Since Madelyn wore a skirt, she soon had a red nose


    from the cold, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red against her white face, which made her


    delicate and attractive.


    Benjamin bent down to reach for the coat and threw it to her, "Put it on."


    "Thank you." Madelyn''s voice trembled slightly, and she regretteding here with him, since she felt


    that Benjamin was a little different tonight.


    Her instincts were right.


    When Benjamin finished smoking a cigarette, he leaned over to kiss her.


    After kissing intermittently for a while, Madelyn regained consciousness. She leaned against his


    shoulder and murmured softly, "Benjamin..."


    She begged in a low voice, "What''s the rtionship between us?"


    Benjamin looked at her quietly, knowing that she was unwilling to do that...

    Chapter 28 Stary With Me For A While


    Chapter 28 Stary With Me For A While


    Benjamin watched her quietly.


    After a long time, he let go of her, gently leaned against the back of the leather chair and closed his


    eyes slightly.


    He seemed so tired.


    Madelyn couldn''t say anything to me him, instead, she just turned aside to look at him.


    After a while, Benjamin got up and pressed a button. The roof slid off and was reced by a piece of


    dark blue ss. The stars in the night sky were extraordinarily bright in the mountains...


    Benjamin leaned back and didn''t say anything, and he just looked up at the night sky intently.


    Madelyn was about to ask him a question when she was grabbed by him.


    She was forced to lean on his shoulder. Smelling the unique woody fragrance of his body, Madelyn''s


    face was sort of blushing.


    "Stay with me for a while!" Benjamin''s voice was hoarse.


    Madelyn couldn''t refuse!


    She didn''t know if all sessful men were inclined to show their weakness, or if all women would take


    that, but Benjamin had helped her, therefore, when he was tired and fragile, she couldn''t push him


    away.


    Probably since she had been silent for such a long while, Benjamin asked her in a low voice, "What are


    you thinking?"


    "No...nothing!" Madelyn''s mind was wandering.


    Either of them spoke afterwards, and they just held each other quietly.


    Benjamin was so charming that it would be hard for Madelyn to resist. She didn''t push him away


    hypocritically, but quietly wrapped her hands around his waist.


    Madelyn was immersed in the smell of him. She had to admit that Benjamin had brought her a sensory


    stimtion that she never experienced even when she was with Daniel in the past. If she was not


    troubled by family chaos, she would be willing to start a romantic story with Benjamin as she was


    single.


    But the rtionship between them was too implicated, which made it impossible for them to be


    together!


    She thought all the things in a daze, and fell asleep in his arms.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin lowered his head and looked at Madelyn in his arms.


    He felt she was nestling in his arms very lightly and softly, with long brown hair scattering on her


    shoulders, a small face as clean as white snow, and thin fragrant shoulders.


    Madelyn was adorable, not morous and dizzling, but mild and attractive.


    She was the kind of woman that was suitable for keeping at home!


    Benjamin was a bit tired after having been working for so many days, so he closed his eyes lightly.


    ...


    When Madelyn woke up, the atmosphere was sort of weird.


    She clearly felt that he...


    Madelyn had never done anything intimate with a man before, and she didn''t know that it was normal


    for men to be like this when they woke up. She bit her lips helplessly, and dare not move.


    In the dark car, Benjamin''s eyes were burning.


    Madelyn asked in a hoarse voice, "What time is it?"


    She could feel the hot air Benjamin was breathing against her ear, "It''s almost one o''clock in the


    morning! I''ll take you hometer."


    Madelyn dare not move, and she had to obediently lie in his arms.


    Benjamin suddenly chuckled, which meant he was in a better mood now. He scratched her face softly


    with his slender fingers, "Why are you so obedient? Ms. Green, are you repaying me, or enjoying


    yourself now?"


    Madelyn was sort of ashamed to be seen throught by him! She ignored him, and moved directly to the


    passenger seat... Benjamin snorted softly and nced at her.


    Madelyn''s face was blushing, and she tried to disguise her awkwardness by saying, "Mr. rk, please


    take me home."


    Benjamin saw that her face was slightly flushed.


    He was surprised somehow. Madelyn and Daniel had been together for four years, so she was


    supposed to be experienced in such thing. But why did she always feel awkward?


    Benjamin''s heartstring was struck by Madelyn. He was indeed interested in her.


    He sent Madelyn home. The address was not the high-end apartment but a dpidated residential


    area. Madelyn said softly, "Here is where I''m living. Thank you, Mr. rk."


    Benjamin lowered the car window, looked over at the building outside, and then turned his eyes to


    Madelyn''s thin body.


    In fact, he knew well about how much she had endured, but she didn''t take the opportunity to ask him


    for help today.


    For a moment, Benjamin felt pity for her.


    He even wanted to make an exception to help her!


    But this thought had just shed across his mind. In his eyes, they were not close enough for him to do


    so for her.

    Chapter 29 Am I Not Your Favorite Person


    Madelyn went upstairs.


    When she reached the second floor, she couldn''t help looking downstairs again.


    Benjamin''s car was still parked there. The expensive golden Continental was quite alien to the old


    buildings here. This was not the ce for people of Benjamin''s status toe.


    Madelyn thought that Mr. rk ought to appear at the celebrity reception.


    Everything happened tonight was like a ripple in her life, and she should forget about it when she woke


    up next morning.


    Madelyn dare not look any more, and hurried upstairs.


    Benjamin didn''t drive away until he watched the light on the top floor was turned on. However, he didn''t


    know that a ck sports car was parked in the dark, and the owner had been waiting downstairs for


    more than two hours.


    --Daniel had been waiting here ever since Benjamin and Madelyn hugged each other in the car!


    Daniel came out of the car, the ck car and the ck clothes he was dressed in made his face more


    fair and handsome. He leaned lightly on the car and lowered his head to light a cigarette.


    Wisps of smoke was exhaled lightly, and dissipated quickly in the dark night.


    He saw everything just now.


    Daniel sneered.


    Well, had Madelyn fallen in love with Benjamin in such a short time? Wasn''t he actually her favorite


    person?


    Daniel stared at the light upstairs, and started to make a call.


    "Take action now!"


    After saying that, he hung up the phone, and smiled coldly, "Madelyn, you asked for it!"


    ...


    When Madelyn turned on the light after she was back home, Cam came out of the bedroom in


    pajamas.


    "Why are you sote?" Cam said reproachfully.


    Madelyn poured herself a ss of cold water, and replied vaguely, "I missed thest bus, and got home


    a bitte."


    Cam looked at her for a long time and said, "I''ll prepare something for you to eat."


    Madelyn felt that Cam seemed to know something, but she couldn''t exin it. After all, there was


    nothing between her and Benjamin, and the future of them was not promising.


    In about five minutes, Cam brought out a bowl of noodles. She put it on the small dining table and


    asked Madelyn toe and eat.


    Madelyn was really hungry, so she whispered, "Thank you, Cam."


    Cam sat across from her and looked at her with her chin propped up. Madelyn felt ufortable,


    "What''s wrong, Cam?"N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    After holding back for a long time, she asked, "Mr. rk sent you back, right? Are you still in contact


    with him?"


    Madelyn hummed, "We are simplymon friends, and maybe we won''t see each other in the future."


    Cam was sort of disappointed.


    On the one hand, she was upset for Samuel, and on the other hand, for Madelyn.


    Madelyn had wasted four years of time and love on Daniel, who was an ungrateful person. In her heart,


    she really hoped that Madelyn could find a man who was better than Daniel and put him to shame.


    It was a pity that...


    Madelyn knew what Cam was thinking. She gently held her hands, and said, "You know that Mr.


    rk and Daniel will be rtives sooner orter, so I don''t even dare to think about being with him."


    Cam sighed softly and said again, "He should not have taken you out, and sent you back without


    eating anything! Besides, there was a smell of smoke on your body..."


    Madelyn was drinking water and then choked when she heard that!


    She was extremely embarrassed.


    Back in the room, Madelyn took a shower andy on the bed. She couldn''t sleep and her mind was


    wandering. She thought that Cam seemed to ept the fact that her father would have to be


    imprisoned for two years.


    Madelyn was a little sad.


    It was not true that she didn''t want to take revenge on Daniel, but she knew clearly that she could do


    nothing. Besides, she had to take care of Cam, who had never suffered in her life...


    Madelyn failed to fall asleep all night.


    At four in the morning, her phone rang suddenly.


    She thought it was an unwanted message and took over the mobile phone to delete it. Then she got


    stuuned when she saw the massage.


    It was actually a message from Benjamin.


    [Are you awake?]


    He also attached a photo, which should had been taken on the terrace of his high-end apartment


    overlooking the night view of the busiest street in Gredax. There was a transparent goblet ced on


    the railing, which reflected the night lights, drizzling and colorful.

    Chapter 30 Benjamin''s Decision


    Madelyn felt her heartbeat quicken.


    She caressed her screen with her slender fingers. But after hesitating for a long while, she still decided


    not to send him a message right away. And she sent him a message half an hourter.


    [Madelyn] I''m sorry, Mr. rk. I fell asleep.


    On the other side...


    Holding a goblet of wine, Benjamin chuckled when he saw Madelyn''s message.


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    ''The reserved Madelyn is so cute.'' He thought to himself.


    He didn''t reply to the message and just slowly sipped the wine in the goblet.


    Benjamin didn''t show up before Madelyn in the next few days. But he would send a message to


    Madelyn from time to time. Sometimes it would be a photo, and sometimes it would be one or two


    sentences that were said in azy yet enchanting mature tone.


    Madelyn wouldn''t reply to his messages every time.


    But both of them were clear about the chemistry between them.


    Early in the morning of today, Madelyn received a call from Benjamin when she was on the way to


    work.


    After hesitating for a while, she answered the call and greeted, "Mr. rk."


    Sitting in the car, Benjamin had a document on his knees. It was Samuel''s case.


    Benjamin suddenly recalled when he asked Owen for the document, thetter smiled meaningfully and


    said, "Benjamin, why did you change your mind? Was it because of Ms. Green? I think she''s a good


    girl. My son David likes her very much..."


    At that time, Benjamin only smiled ndly and asked Owen not to tell Madelyn about this.


    He told him that he still needed to consider it.


    Right now, Benjamin softly flipped through the document while saying to Madelyn who was at the other


    end of the line, "I need to go out on a trip for a week. Let''s meet when Ie back. I want to tell you


    something."


    Madelyn didn''t know what he wanted to say, but she knew that it would only benefit her if she could


    maintain a good rtionship with Benjamin.


    She replied an "ok" in a soft voice.


    Benjamin suddenly felt his heart soften. He lowered his voice as if he was murmuring to his lover, "Why


    are you so obedient and soft? Don''t you know that men would bully you if they see you being like this?"


    Madelyn blushed and was wordless for a long while.


    Benjamin chuckled, deciding to let go of her.


    After ending the call, he looked at the document for a long while... This decision was not merely about


    a transaction, it was also mixed with his distress for Madelyn. He thought he would as well take it as


    ...


    On the other side...


    When Madelyn put down her phone, she pondered what Benjamin wanted to say to her a weekter.


    As she was thinking wildly about it, she almost missed her station.


    She hurriedly ran to the Music Center. But when she clocked in, she found her colleagues'' gazes


    toward her strange.


    Madelyn didn''t know what was wrong. In the end, one of her colleagues who had a good rtionship


    with her secretly told her, "Madelyn, Ms. Waylon knew that you were doing a part-time job outside. She


    may ask you for a talkter. I heard that the informer was Elizabeth. You two were recruited at the


    same time, but you taught well, so quality students all swarmed to you. She had been unhappy about it


    for a long time and now she finally got a chance."


    Madelyn was dumbfounded for a while.


    Her colleague told her many things in a low voice like everyone here could understand her as they


    knew she was in difficulty.


    Right at this moment, Penelope''s assistant walked over and politely asked Madelyn to go to Penelope''s


    office.


    Madelyn followed her to the director''s office which was located on the second floor. The assistant


    knocked on the door and said, "Ms. Waylon, Ms. Green is here."


    "Come in." A male voice sounded from inside.


    Madelyn opened the door and then walked into the office.


    Penelope was a shrewd, capable woman in her forties. Right at this moment, she was sitting behind


    the desk and reading a document with her head lowered.


    When seeing Madelyn, she signaled her to sit down.


    Madelyn wanted to exin, but Penelope interrupted her with a gesture, "It''s true that Elizabeth is the


    informer. But I''ve known about it long ago and kept a blind eye to it. But Madelyn, from yesterday on,


    some parents sessively learned that you were doing a part-time job outside and many of them


    mored for recing you. I got dozens of phone calls today. You also know that students who study


    piano in our Music Center are all from either rich or powerful families. Not to mention me, even our


    boss, Mr. Roman, can''t afford to offend them."


    Madelyn naturally understood as Penelope had analyzed it to this point.


    She didn''t want to put Penelope, who had been kind to her in the workce, in a dilemma, nor could


    she stay in the Music Center cheekily. She gently took off her badge, put it on the desk, and said in a


    soft tone, "Thank you for taking care of me over the past years."

    Chapter 31 May the Match of Bitch and Scumbag Last Forever


    Penelope was exasperated at Madelyn''s concession.


    She heaved out a long breath and said, "Do you know what it means if you leave the Music Center? Do


    you know how many quality students you have? And that many people are eager to snatch them from


    you?"


    Madelyn knew it all.


    But what could she do? She could only choke out her apology to Penelope who had provided guidance


    and help to her during work.


    Penelope felt very fretful.


    She lit a long female cigarette, looked up at Madelyn after smoking half of the cigarette, and asked,


    "Madelyn, did you offend anyone?"


    Madelyn nodded with a heavy heart.


    She knew that Elizabeth wouldn''t be able to cause such great trouble to her, and the person behind all


    this must be Daniel! She was really curious about what other means Daniel would resort to forcing her


    to submit.


    Penelope put out her cigarette. She still thought it a pity and said to Madelyn, "Madelyn, to appease


    those parents, you can only leave our music center for the time being. I''ll hire you back if I get a chance


    in the future."


    Though she said so, they all knew that it was difficult for Madelyn to develop her career in the industry


    after this scandal.N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Madelyn''s face looked so pale when she walked out of Penelope''s office.


    When she was packing up her things, her colleagues, except for Elizabeth, all pitied her. Elizabeth said


    in a sarcastic tone, "Madelyn, you should know our rules. You''re so bold. How could you still vite the


    rules when you knew them well? Just because Ms. Waylon favors you? Now you have to bear the


    consequences. Your reputation in our industry has been ruined. Who will ask you to teach their kids


    pianoter?"


    Madelyn took a deep breath and said coldly, "Elizabeth, you''ve cooperated with Daniel, right? How


    dare you cooperate with such a cunning man? Aren''t you afraid that you''ll suffer great loss in the end?"


    Elizabeth leaned forward and chuckled scornfully.


    She lowered her voice and spoke, "Madelyn, I''m not you. You''re ignorant of many things. Now let me


    tell you... When you just established your rtionship with Daniel, we had a one-night stand. Do you


    know what I mean?"


    She then continued word by word, "We. Had. Sex."


    Madelyn felt nauseated when she heard the words.


    She was so disgusted by Daniel, but Elizabeth lookedcent. Madelyn said with a cold


    expression, "Then I should congratte you."


    She picked up her box and prepared to leave, but Elizabeth grabbed her arm.


    She didn''t allow Madelyn to leave.


    Madelyn''s reaction was far from satisfying her!


    Why? Why was Madelyn''s life so smooth? Why could she possess everything when she was born?


    Why could Madelyn be favored by Penelope? And why could she be Daniel''s girlfriend?


    Why was she still inferior to Madelyn after working hard for so long? Was she inferior to Madelyn? No!


    It was just because she didn''t have a good family background. She was from a small city and was


    somehow looked down upon by others!


    But now, she could finally tread on Madelyn!


    Elizabeth saidcently, "Do you know why Daniel didn''t touch you, Madelyn? It was because


    you''re too reserved and boring, just like a block of wood. Men would lose their desire when they nce


    at you."


    Madelyn looked down at the ground and said with a sneer, "Then I wish your rtionship with Daniel


    With that, she pushed away Elizabeth with great force and strode out of the office.


    Elizabeth became so furious. But soon she becamecent again. Madelyn''s family had gone


    bankrupt and her career had been ruined. She was just as miserable as a disowned dog. What else


    does she have to deserve her jealousy?


    Elizabeth sat down in a good mood and sent out a message.


    [Elizabeth] I bought a silk nightdress. Would you like toe to my house to have a look?


    Daniel only replied to her message two hourster. And his message was cold-toned.


    [Daniel] I''ve been very busy recently. Don''t message me if there isn''t an emergency.


    Elizabeth felt a bit aggrieved, but at the same time, she also felt a bit sweet. She believed that she


    could grasp Daniel''s heart. And she believed that Daniel was just making use of Eloise and that only


    she herself could win Daniel''s heart.

    Chapter 32 How Dare He Force You to Come Back to Him


    Madelyn lost her job. But she didn''t tell Cam about it for the time being as she didn''t want thetter to


    worry about her.


    She sat on a bench in the park alone and got lost in her thoughts.


    The sunshine was perfect, but Madelyn felt very cold.


    She checked the financial statement of her family and found that they would have little money left as


    they had to pay arge sum to Owen soon and they needed to spend some money on improving her


    father''s life in prison.


    Madelyn pulled out a thin ne that was decorated with a light-pink diamond from under her shirt.


    She caressed it for a long while in a dilemma. In the end, she still made up her mind and came to a


    pawn shop. The manager of the shop studied the ne for a long while and said, "I can only give


    you sixty thousand it the pawn is redeemable. But if you choose to make the pawn irredeemable, I can


    give you more. How about two hundred thousand?"


    The pink diamond was worth at least five hundred thousand dors, but Madelyn couldn''t care about it


    now.


    She needed money!


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    Madelyn said with a bitter smile, "Irredeemable, please."


    She got a cheque of two hundred thousand and then collected all the cash they had at home before


    going to Owen''sw firm to pay the fees.


    When she walked out of thew firm, she got a phone call from Vivian.


    Vivian had heard from others that Madelyn had lost her job. She asked, "Where are you? I''lle to


    find you and treat me to a meal."


    Madelyn agreed as it was not convenient for her to go back home now.


    Vivian treated her to a hotpot meal. In the steaming restaurant, Vivian put a beef roll into the spicy pot


    while cursing, "Elizabeth, that bitch! I didn''t like her when we studied at the university. She would try to


    seduce any men who looked sessful. At that time, when you were Daniel''s girlfriend, she even tried


    to seduce Daniel, publicly or secretly."


    Madelyn was dumbfounded for a while. Then she said with a nd smile, "Now her wish finallyes


    true."


    She retold what Elizabeth had said to Vivian.


    Vivian was very shocked when she heard the words. But when she came back to her sense, she


    cursed, "Fuck, such a bitch. Daniel is also a jerk. Jerk and bitch, perfect match!"


    Fearing that Madelyn would feel unhappy, sheforted her, "Don''t take it to your heart. Anyway,


    Daniel is now Eloise''s man. His disloyalty doesn''t have anything to do with us."


    Madelyn suddenly recalled that Benjamin once told her that Eloise oncemitted suicide because of


    Daniel... Maybe Benjamin also knew Daniel''s love affairs. It was just that he was turning a blind eye to


    that.


    Madelyn was absent-minded. Vivian nudged her and said, "Don''t feel upset for that scumbag."


    Madelyn shook her head and replied, "I won''t."


    Vivian sighed and said, "That''s right. Compared to a scumbag, money is more important."


    She took out another bank car as she was worried that Madelyn wouldck money. Madelyn refused it


    and said softly, "I don''t need it for the time being."


    Vivian didn''t believe it.


    Madelyn put a piece of meat into her bowl and said gently, "I sold my ne."


    Vivian was dumbfounded.


    After a long while, she said in a trembling voice, "Hey, why didn''t you discuss it with me? It''s the only


    thing that your mother left to you. And you''d never taken it down since childhood."


    Madelyn patted the back of her hand. But when she was about to say something tofort Vivian, her


    phone which was put on the desk rang.


    It was from the manager of the restaurant where Madelyn was a part-time worker.


    Madelyn answered the call. The manager said something, and then Madelyn slowly put down her


    phone and said to Vivian, "I was dismissed by the restaurant."


    Vivian was furious.


    She snapped, "Daniel did it, right? Why is he still pestering you? Madelyn, go, let''s go to find him. I


    must seek justice for you. That son of bitch has deceived you for four years, and now he''s trying all


    means to force you. Will he only feel satisfied until you die?"


    Madelyn stopped Vivian.


    She begged Vivian not to go to find Daniel because she knew that Daniel did all this to force her to


    surrender. He wanted her to be his mistress!


    Vivian cried and cursed, "How could Daniel treat you like that? He was engaged with Eloise and had an


    affair with that bitch, Elizabeth. He''s so dirty. How dare he ask you toe back to him?"


    Madelyn begged Vivian not to go there because she knew Daniel did all those things to force her to be


    his mistress.


    Vivian was so angry that she cried out. "How could Daniel treat you like that? He not only engaged with


    the other woman but also had an affair with that bitch Elizabeth. He''s so filthy. What qualification does


    he have to ask you toe back to him?"

    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    Madelyn slightly looked down and pointed out, "He did that because of his self-esteem."


    Daniel didn''t love him.


    It was just that he couldn''t ept the humiliation of the fact that he had to rely on the rk family, so


    he wanted to regain his self-esteem from other aspects. Therefore, he urately targeted Madelyn, a


    woman who once loved him deeply.


    Vivian felt sadder. She hugged Madelyn and said, "Just ignore him. He must have schizophrenia!"


    Madelyn replied gently.


    She had made up her mind in her heart. She decided to leave Gredax with Cam and her father when


    her father was discharged from prison and to live in the other ce. However, she still felt guilty and


    sad. Because of her love affair, her father was jailed and Cam, who was in herter years, had to


    wander from ce to ce.


    Vivianforted for a long while. Later, she left first as she had to deal with some matters.


    A worse situation was waiting for Madelyn. Daniel didn''t intend to let her off. The employers of


    Madelyn''s part-time jobs called her one by one and terminated their contract with her. Madelyn only


    nodded dully.


    Thest call was from Daniel and Madelyn answered the call. None of them broke the silence and only


    their breaths could be heard.


    In the end, Madelyn finally asked in a dull voice, "Daniel Campbell, what else do you want to do?"


    What else did he want to do?


    Daniel curled up his lips into an indifferent smile and replied, "Don''t you know it?"


    Madelyn remained silent, so Daniel spoke again, "Madelyn, I want you to beg me. Everything will be


    solved if you beg me. I''llpensate you twice for all you have lost now and you''ll lead a better life


    than before. Is it okay? Think about it. Weren''t you happy when you were together with me?"


    Madelyn said with a sneer, "Should I feel happy when I waited for you in our apartment while you were


    having sex with Elizabeth?"


    Daniel asked in a strained voice, "Who told you that?"


    Madelyn spoke ndly, "What do you think of it?"


    Then she hung up her phone.


    Just let Daniel and Elizabeth fight against each other!


    On the other side...


    Daniel''s eyes were filled with fierceness when he slowly put down his phone.


    Elizabeth was seeking death!


    It was just a one-night stand and desire-driven sex. Did she think that she was his true love? How dare


    she tell others about this behind his back?


    Daniel immediately pressed the button for the internal line, wanting to ask his secretary toe over.


    Much to his surprise, Elizabeth had eagerlye to him. His secretary reported with difficulty, "Mr.


    Campbell, I told Ms. Dn that you were having a meeting."


    Daniel loosened his necktie and said in a cold voice, "Let her in."


    His secretary was a bit surprised and then hurriedly brought Elizabeth over.


    Elizabeth had deliberately dressed up. Her tight dress outlined her sexy figure. She threw herself into


    Daniel''s arms as soon as she entered the office and asked thoughtfully, "What''s wrong with you? You


    look upset. And you said you were busy when I asked you toe to my house."


    Daniel grasped her gracile neck, lowered his head, and began to kiss her.


    His kiss was skilled and wild and it soon made Elizabeth''s body soften. She couldn''t help but kiss him


    back... The office was soon filled with their erotic moans.


    When Daniel was turned on, he gently pulled Elizabeth''s long hair and murmured as if she was his


    lover, "Did you tell Madelyn about our affair?"


    Elizabeth had been caught in desire. She moaned defenselessly, "Daniel, why did you mention you?


    Let''s go on..."


    "Seems like it''s true." Daniel leaned toward her cheek and gently bit it.


    Elizabeth was a bit stunned.


    She finally perceived Daniel''s abnormality. He was very different from his usual self, but she couldn''t


    tell what the difference was.


    When Elizabeth was absent-minded, she felt a sharp pang from her scalp.


    Pulling her hair, Daniel threw her out with great force. In an instant, her forehead hit the cold corner of


    the table and immediately bled...

 Chapter 34 Daniel, You Love Her

    Chapter 34 Daniel, You Love Her


    Chapter 34 Daniel, You Love Her


    Elizabeth was perplexed.


    But Daniel didn''t pity her at all. He pulled her ck hair again and forced her to look at him. Then he


    said in an extremely cold voice, "Do you know the consequence of talking nonsense?"


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    Though Elizabeth felt great pain, she was more overwhelmed with panic. She finally realized why


    Daniel was so angry.


    He didn''t want their affair to be known by Madelyn!


    Elizabeth didn''t want to believe this. She couldn''t help but mumbled, "You don''t love her, do you?"


    "Yes, I don''t love her!" Daniel''s smile became colder as he continued, "But who do you think you are?


    Are you qualified to involve in our affair?"


    Elizabethughed and then cried.


    The blood mixed with her tears, screwing up her delicate make-up and making her look horrifying.


    She said with a light chuckle, "Daniel, you love her!"


    "No, I don''t."


    "You don''t love her? Then why should you care if she would learn about the truth or not? You don''t


    want her to know that you''re such a dirty, disloyal man! You don''t want her to know that you''re a jerk


    who can be fucked by any woman!"


    "If you didn''t love her, why did you try all means topel her?"


    "If you didn''t love her, why didn''t you take her during the four years? Was it because you were not


    interested in her? Or was it because you pitied her? Daniel, you must feel so regretful. You pitied her


    and didn''t dare to take her virginity during the four years, but now she''s single and can have sex with


    the other man at any time..."


    Elizabeth said the words in one go, her eyes red.


    She thought she had won over Madelyn, but only now did she realize that she was the foolish one.


    From the beginning to the end, he had never loved her. Except for power, what he cared about was


    Madelyn!


    She felt very happy after blurting the words, but she got two ps from Daniel.


    Elizabeth''s lips wobbled, but she still said with a smile, "Daniel, it doesn''t matter if you want to p me.


    The important thing is that Madelyn will nevere back to you. Even if you eventually get the things


    you want, you will never be able to get her!"


    "Fuck off!" Daniel roared.


    Elizabeth stood up, wiped away the blood around her mouth corners, and then left the office with her


    head held high.


    Daniel was still overwhelmed with anger. He mmed his phone onto the ground with great force. His


    secretary, who just walked to the door of the office and was about to go in, was stunned when she saw


    the scene.


    She had never seen Daniel being so angry!


    Standing in the mess, Daniel said in a soft tone, "I want to see Madelyn tomorrow."


    His secretary became stiff when she realized what he meant.


    ...


    On the other side...


    For the time being, Madelyn managed to keep her unemployment a secret from Cam. Many things


    had happened to her family recently and she didn''t want Cam to worry about her.


    At night, she couldn''t fall asleep and kept thinking about her future.


    Benjamin called her at one o''clock, but Madelyn didn''t answer the call. Instead, she replied with a


    message to him.


    [Madelyn] My mom is asleep. I don''t want to wake her up.


    Benjamin messaged her back in one minute.


    [Benjamin] I''ll return this Saturday. Ms. Green, what gift would you like?


    Madelyn didn''t know how to reply to the message.


    She had decided to leave Gredax, so naturally, she wouldn''t have any entanglement with Benjamin


    anymore. Moreover, she was not an easy girl...


    After hesitating for a long while, she finally replied to him.


    [Madelyn] Mr. Hawkins, thank you for your help during this period.


    It was a simple sentence and he could immediately understand what she meant at a nce. She didn''t


    want to have any ambiguous rtionship with him anymore. Benjamin was a smart man, so he must be


    able to understand.


    As she had expected, Benjamin didn''t reply to her message anymore.


    This was the result that Madelyn wanted. However, she felt a bit disappointed after making everything


    clear with him. She couldn''t help but begin to think if it would end differently if she and Benjamin got to


    know each other by other means.


    Then she mocked herself for thinking too much.


    How would a man who had an outstanding family background like Benjamin have a future with her?


    They could have a one-night stand at most.


    Madelyn didn''t sleep well that night. But she had to wake up early the next morning as she was afraid


    that Cam would have doubts.


    Just as she had washed herself, the door of her bedroom was opened. Cam, who had a pale face


    with her lips trembling uncontrobly, spoke, "Madelyn, your fathermitted suicide in prison!"

 Chapter 35 Driven to Desperation

    Chapter 35 Driven to Desperation


    Chapter 35 Driven to Desperation


    Madelyn froze.


    Cam''s face was pale as she said again, "Your fathermitted suicide in the jail! He''s been saved,


    but is in bad condition! Madelyn, please, I beg you to think of a way to let me see him! His health has


    always been poor, and this blow is too big!"


    Cam covered her face and cried out.


    Madelyn''s mind was in turmoil. She couldn''t believe that her father, a man of iron will, wouldmit


    suicide, as he was perfectly fine when she saw him the other day! She called Owen at once, asking


    him to help them see Samuel.


    At the same time, Owen had also received the news and was about to discuss it with Madelyn, so he


    asked her toe to thew firm to talk.


    Madelynforted Cam with this news, and the two of them hurried to thew firm even without


    eating breakfast.


    Mr. James looked serious.


    He made several phone calls in front of Madelyn and Cam, and then shook his head, "He''s fine, but


    he can''t be released on bail. He has to be treated inside."


    Thinking of her rtionship with David, Owen tactfully said a few more, "Ms. Green, since your father''s


    case involves the Campbell family, you... could you approach Mr. Campbell and see if there''s any room


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    for negotiation?"


    Mr. Campbell... Daniel!


    Madelyn closed her eyes in pain. She should have guessed that Daniel was behind this! He had done


    so many unreasonable things, all just to force her toe back to him.


    But how could she go back?


    If Madelyn became the other woman, her father would be furious even to the point of spitting blood! But


    she couldn''t give in. What about her dad and Cam? Did they really have to be ruined and perish?


    Madelyn sat there nkly.


    Mr. James looked at her with some sympathy and handed her a cup of warm water, saying softly, "Why


    don''t you talk to Benjamin again? David told me that you''ve been getting close recently."


    Madelyn''s heart felt like it had been pricked by needles.


    It hurt, and it was continuous.


    Mr. James was an experienced person, and he continued in a gentle tone, "Benjamin is not so


    unsympathetic. The other day he came to me to pick up..."


    He suddenly thought of what Benjamin had told him and stopped himself.


    --What if Benjamin changes his mind? Wouldn''t it just disappoint the girl again?


    Madelyn nodded after hearing his suggestion.


    When she went out, she hesitated to call Benjamin, but she had rejected him justst night. Would he


    still be willing to listen to her if she called and begged him now? Madelyn wasn''t sure.


    But for her dad''s sake, she mustered up the courage to make the call... but the phone was off.


    Benjamin had turned it off.


    Madelyn was a bit desperate. She almost couldn''t face Cam.


    Cam, Cam... where was she?


    Madelyn thought Cam had gone to the bathroom, so she searched around but didn''t find her.


    She began to feel uneasy and called Cam''s phone, "Answer the phone... answer the phone..."


    The call was connected, but no one answered.


    Madelyn suddenly remembered something and ran to the elevator, frantically pressing the elevator


    button... When she got in the elevator, her whole body trembled.


    Cam... don''t do anything stupid!


    Don''t...


    Madelyn was ultimately too slow. When she arrived at the president''s office of the Campbell Group, it


    was a mess.


    Daniel leaned against the redwood desk, covering his stomach with both hands and blood continuously


    oozing through his fingers.


    The scene was shocking!


    Cam held a fruit knife tightly in her hand, and she looked like she was in a trance and spoke


    unintelligibly.


    Madelyn''s voice trembled as she called out, "Cam!"


    Cam''s gaze was fixed, and she murmured, "I killed Daniel. He won''t harm Samuel or you anymore...


    Madelyn, I told you he wasn''t suitable for you."


    Madelyn''s face was full of tears.


    She gently hugged Cam and choked, "Cam, don''t be afraid... I''m here!"


    Daniel held his wound, and blood kept dripping down. The secretary wanted help him with the wound,


    but he pushed her away and asked Madelyn word by word, "Can''t you see that I''m bleeding? Madelyn,


    you don''t care if I die or not, do you?"

 Chapter 36 Kneel down and beg! Mr. Gu You are a large Lord

    Chapter 36 Kneel down and beg! Mr. Gu You are arge Lord


    Kneeling Down and Begging! Mr. Campbell, I Beg Your Mercy


    Madelyn''s eyes looked hollow.


    She looked at the man she once loved and felt very strange. She even wondered if she really knew him


    at all.


    Otherwise, how could he be so cruel!


    Cam didn''t even dare to kill a chicken, how could she dare to wield a knife? Clearly, Daniel used


    words to provoke and set her up!


    Madelyn spoke softly, "Mr. Campbell, I beg you to let me go, please?"


    Daniel was about to say something when Madelyn knelt in front of him... Cam regained some


    consciousness at that moment, making strange sounds as if she wanted to stop her.


    Madelyn refused to stand up, kneeling straight up. Her eyes were full of tears, making her already clear


    eyes even brighter. She trembled as she spoke, "Mr.Campbell, I was young and foolish when I was in


    love with you. I was ignorant and kept bothering you... in view of our getting along well before,


    could you please  spare my father and Ms. Logan? Please, I cry your mercy"


    Seeing that Madelyn was so humble, Cam cried out in pain.


    Coming to her senses, She cried and apologized to Madelyn, wanting to pull her up.


    How could she!


    How could she!


    Madelyn was the pearl to Samuel. How could she kneel down to this beast?


    Madelyn didn''t move, and there was stubbornness in her eyes as she looked at Daniel. How could


    Daniel, who had been with her for four years, not know her?


    Though Madelyn was softhearted, she also had a bit of a temper. She once loved him deeply, but now


    she was kneeling before him just to leave him!


    Daniel, gritting his teeth, demanded, "What if I don''t let them go? What will you do, Madelyn?"


    Madelyn clenched her fingers tightly and replied, "Don¡¯t you scare that I will uncover your true nature in


    front of the rk family?"


    "Go uncover it!" Daniel, with his face distorted in fury, sneered, "And see if Eloise will forgive me or not,


    see if your whole family will survive or not, or if Benjamin will give you a hand ?"


    Thinking of Benjamin, Daniel felt his wounds even more painful!


    He was extremely ferocious! Up until now, Madelyn finally saw the real Daniel...


    Enduring the pain, Daniel walked over and pulled Madelyn to him, forcing her to get closer.


    He stroked her face, speaking in a low and hoarse voice, "Come back to me! Otherwise, I cannot


    guarantee what I might do. For instance, I might send Ms. Cam to prison for ten or eight years for the


    charge of intentional injury, or I might even make Samuel..."


    A p was thrown on his face!


    Madelyn, trembling with anger, shouted: "Daniel, you are an evil!"


    Her hand was grabbed by an arm hard!


    Daniel pressed his face against hers and said coldly, "Just finding out today? That''s not what you said


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    when you were in love with me, and when you blushed and waited for me to kiss you... Madelyn,


    don¡¯t you remember when you said I was the most handsome man in the world? Or do you need me to


    refresh your memory?"


    Cam struggled desperately to fight him to the death.


    Daniel let go of Madelyn and had security restrain Cam. He coldly said, "Call the police and say this


    Ms. Logan assaulted me and intentionally injured me!"


    Madelyn grabbed his hand.


    But Daniel shook her hand off and licked the blood from his lips. "Madelyn, you really made me mad!"


    ...


    In the distance, the sound of police sirens grew louder.


    Madelyn''s delicate face turned pale.


    Daniel won. He was despicable and shameless. He was a beast!


    Madelyn closed her eyes and then opened them again, softly saying, "Please don''t be angry, I


    apologize to you on behalf of Cam."


    Daniel sat slowly on the sofa and reached out his hand towards Madelyn.


    Madelyn''s hand was stained with Daniel''s blood. She gently...gently raised her hand and slowly handed


    it to Daniel.

 Chapter 37 Go to My Villa Tomorrow Night, Hmm

    Chapter 37 Go to My Vi Tomorrow Night, Hmm


    Chapter 37 Go to My Vi Tomorrow Night, OK?


    With tears and blood in her mouth, Cam struggled frantically.


    "Madelyn, you can''t be with this beast!"


    "How am I supposed to tell your father?"


    Outside the door were footsteps heard, and a few uniformed people came in.


    Cam was stunned for a moment, then she started screaming, "I hurt Daniel, arrest me! Take me


    away...I''m willing to go to jail for a lifetime! Don''t touch Madelyn ...Daniel, please don''t touch her!"


    Cam knelt down with her head in her arms.


    She hated herself for being useless and impulsive, and even more so for easily getting angry at


    Daniel and dragging Madelyn into this mess.


    This scene surprised the people who came in.


    They looked at Daniel and said, "Mr. Campelll, this is..." Daniel gently held onto Madelyn''s hand and


    forcefully pulled her to sit by his side. Madelyn was trembling all over.


    He was somewhat displeased. Was she really that afraid of him?


    But since Madelyn had eased up, he naturally had to give her some benefits. So Daniel casually said,


    holding his stomach with a tissue, "It was too chaotic just now. I may have identally injured myself,


    but ourpany has surveince footage. Although there were some malfunctions, it can be repaired


    in a few days, and I will provide theplete video at that time."


    The visitors knew what was really going on: just a love triangle!


    They asked a few more questions at random and quickly left.


    Madelyn was still trembling. She knew that Cam was only safe for the time being, but the


    surveince footage was in Daniel''s hands, and he could use Cam at any time!


    The huge office was eerily quiet.


    Daniel''s face was as white as paper. He turned to his secretary and ordered the car to be prepared. He


    then lightly pinched Madelyn''s chin and said, "How abouting to my vi tomorrow night, hmm?"


    Madelyn''s eyes were nk.


    Daniel tugged at his lips and said, "You can y the piano for me then!"


    Madelyn didn''t respond, but Daniel didn''t care. As long as she was by his side, it was enough! He


    believed that as long as she spent some time with him, she would be obedient like before.


    She should forget about that inappropriate affair with Benjamin rk!


    Daniel was quite injured, and his assistants crowded around him as they quickly left.


    ...


    Madelyn helped Cam home.


    They looked at Daniel and said: "Mr. Campbell, what is..."


    Daniel gently took Madelyn''s hand and forcefully pulled her to sit next to him. Her whole body was


    shaking.


    He was a bit unhappy. Was she so afraid of him?


    But since Madelyn gave way to him, he naturally had to throw her some candies. So Daniel clutched


    his stomach with a tissue and lightly said, "It was too chaotic just now. I may have identally injured


    myself. But ourpany has surveince cameras. Although there were some malfunctions, we can fix


    it in a couple of days. I will provide the full video then."


    The people around them understood the situation: it was just a romantic dispute!


    They asked a few casual questions and soon left. Madelyn was still trembling. She knew that


    Cam was temporarily safe, but Daniel had the surveince footage and could report her at any time!


    The office was deadly silent.


    Daniel''s face was as pale as a ghost. He turned his head and instructed his secretary to prepare the


    car, then lightly pinched Madelyn''s chin and said, "Go to my vi tomorrow night, ok?"


    Madelyn''s eyes were nk.


    Daniel pulled his lips, saying, "Then y the piano for me!"


    Madelyn didn''t respond, but Daniel didn''t care. As long as she was by his side, it was enough! He


    believed that as long as she stayed with him for a while, she would return to her obedient self like


    before.


    She should forget the improper rtionship with Benjamin rk!


    Daniel was seriously injured, and his assistants helped him leave in a hurry.


    ...


    Madelyn helped Cam back home.


    Cam was still distraught. Madelyn whispered, "Ms. Cam, you go take a shower. I''ll make some


    food."


    As she spoke, her arm was suddenly grabbed tightly. Cam said in a stern voice, "Madelyn, I forbid


    you from seeing that beast!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes.


    If she didn''t go...what could she do? Only to watch her father suffer and let Ms. Cam go to jail?


    No, She had no other choice.


    Not going to tell Cam, Madelyn nned to solve everything and send the elderly couple away, and


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    then...it would be her and Daniel''s matter!


    --Daniel, it''s because of you that I''vee this far!


    Madelyn lied to Cam, saying that she would find Mr. James to find a solution or see if Vivian had any


    connections. With her repeated promises, Cam felt a little relieved.


    At a private hospital in Gradex.


    Daniel finished treating his wound and was admitted to the ward. He changed into a loose hospital


    gown and had rounds of gauze wrapped around his waist.


    Even so, he was still discussing business matters with his assistant.


    Eloise  came over.


    Her eyes were red, "Daniel, who hurt you?"


    Daniel couldn''t say he injured himself on purpose, and he didn''t want Eloise  to hear Madelyn''s


    name. So he made up a random reason, which Eloise  believed and was worried sick.


    Her concern was genuine, but looking at her, Daniel thought of Madelyn. In the past, Madelyn had


    loved him just as passionately, but today even though he was injured like this, she didn''t show any


    worry for him or shed a tear.

 Chapter 38 Benjamin Is Coming Back

    Chapter 38 Benjamin Is Coming Back


    Chapter 38 Benjamin Is Coming Back


    Daniel felt a little downhearted.


    He was leaning against the headboard, enjoying the care of his fianc¨¦e who was feeding him and


    serving him water... not spoiled or difficult to deal with at all!


    Eloise was such a beauty, and Daniel was not a man who would sacrifice his own desires.


    He told his subordinates to leave and pressed down on her body ...


    With blushing cheeks, Eloise touched his chest with her slender fingers and softly said, "Get up! You


    are injured, and you need rest."


    Daniel''s gaze was intense and piercing.


    It made her shiver.


    Soon, in the private ward, they were hot for each other, and Daniel was very passionate. The sex


    ended after two hours. After the affair, Eloise, lying shyly in his arms, asked, "What''s up?"


    Feeling a little listless, Daniel replied, "Nothing! I just missed you."


    Eloise gave him a kiss.


    She leaned closer to him and said with her breath on his neck, "My brother ising back in a few


    days, and I''m going to invite you over for dinner. There are several projects of my brother''spany


    that are suitable for you. You should make a good impression on him then!"


    Daniel''s gaze turned serious.


    Eloise was reluctant to leave him, but she knew that Daniel didn''t like her being too clingy, so she only


    stayed for half a day and left.


    Sitting in the ck RV, she couldn''t help but call Benjamin.


    Benjamin had an important meeting today and shut down his phone all day. He just turned it back on.


    He picked it up and asked, "Eloise, what''s up?"


    Eloise''s eyes were still watery after passionate sex. She circled her slender fingers and said in a pouty


    tone, "Benjamin, please help me."


    Benjamin loosened his tie and asked, "What happened? Who makes you so upset?"


    Eloise coquettishly replied, "Daniel was injured! I asked him who did this to him, but he wouldn''t tell


    me."


    Hearing Daniel''s name, Benjamin remained silent.


    At this moment, Eloise muttered to herself, "So many things happened today! Benjamin, I ran into


    David today, and he told me that Madelyn''s fathermitted suicide in the jail, which sounded so


    pitiful."


    While he was loosening his tie, Benjamin''s hand suddenly paused.


    He asked again, "Eloise, what did you say?"


    Eloise didn''t have any suspicion about his words and said again, "David''s girlfriend, Madelyn, didn''t her


    father go to jail for economic crimes? He just killed himself...how unfortunate!"


    After remaining silent for a moment, then Benjamin told Eloise that he was busy now and had to hang


    up.


    Eloise was a little anxious and added, "Benjamin, I haven''t finished yet."


    "You can tell me next time."


    ...


    Benjamin rang Madelyn up but couldn''t get through, as her phone was turned off.


    So he called Mr. James instead.


    Mr. James exined everything to him and joked, "Benjamin, this is a perfect opportunity for you to


    save the beauty in distress!"


    Benjamin said with a bitter smile, "You are still making fun of me at this point?"


    After hanging up, Benjamin immediately asked Paisley to book a flight for tonight, while Paisley was


    surprised and said, "Mr. rk, there is a court hearing tomorrow morning."


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    The court hearing...


    Suddenly, Benjamin realized that he hadpletely forgotten about it.


    He had been working on this case for a month and the judgment would be delivered in the court trial


    tomorrow. He couldn''t just leave now.


    After thinking for a while, he wrote a note to Paisley.


    "Fly to Gredax tomorrow morning and find Ms. Green. Here''s her address and phone number. Ask her


    to call me!"


    Paisley had met Madelyn before, so she said with a smile, "Ms. Green is very beautiful!"


    Benjamin gave her a nce.


    Paisley didn''t dare to say anything else.


    Paisley quickly left, and Benjamin continued to prepare the materials required for tomorrow''s trial, but


    he kept trying to call Madelyn every one or two hour. However, he still couldn''t get through to her even


    Finally, in the mid night, he booked a flight ticket to Gredax the next afternoon.

 Chapter 39 Benjamin Is Coming Back II

    Chapter 39 Benjamin Is Coming Back II


    Chapter 39 Benjamin Is Coming Back II


    Things didn''t go as nned. Paisley''s flight was dyed due to the ne malfunction.


    In the lounge, she called Benjamin but he had turned off his phone during the trial.


    It wasn''t until noon when the trial had ended that Benjamin turned on his phone and saw Paisley''s


    message. He frowned and thought for a moment.


    Then, his client Jonathan sent his assistant over, who said to him respectfully, "Mr. rk, my boss, Mr.


    Hunter, would like to invite you for dinner."


    Benjamin put away his phone and replied with a smile, "Please extend my gratitude to Mr. Hunter for


    inviting me, but I''m afraid I won''t be able to join you for the dinner. I have to hurry to Gredax for


    something important."


    Just as they spoke, Mr. Hunter himself came over.


    In his forties, he was a businessman who looked dashing and elegant. He shook hands with Benjamin


    and said with great warmth, "Benjamin, you were quite impressive in court. Since you have important


    things to attend to, I won''t keep you. When youe to Esrand next time, let me do the honors."


    "That''s a deal." Benjamin replied gracefully.


    Mr. Hunter valued him highly and asked his driver to drive Benjamin to the airport...Paisley, whose flight


    had been dyed for half a day, decided to take the same flight back to Gredax with Benjamin.


    Before the ne took off, Benjamin gave Madelyn a call again.


    Her phone was still turned off!


    He frowned and had a feeling that something must have gone wrong.


    ...


    In Gredax...


    Madelyn spent all day at home.


    Cam was emotionally unstable, so she stayed with her for a long time.


    At dusk, Madelyn made dinner and served it to Cam. She said softly when they had dinner, "I''m


    going to meet a friendter, someone introduced by Vivian. Hopefully, he might help us."


    Cam remained suspicious.


    Madelyn held her hand and continued, "That''s real! Cam, I want to give it a try."


    Perhaps Madelyn hid her true feelings too well, so Cam believed her atst.


    After dinner, Madelyn went back to her room and pulled out arge box from which she took out a


    photo album. She opened it gently, and there was a picture of her mother when she was young.


    Madelyn stroked it gently.


    When she was ten years old, her mother passed away, and one yearter, her Dad married Cam.


    Madelyn remembered that at that time, Dad and Cam often quarreled. Once, Cam cried her heart


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    out and used him of being nice to others'' child, and that he wouldn''t even have a child with her.


    At that time, little Madelyn knew she wasn''t his biological child. She was very afraid that she would


    suddenly be abandoned. So when Dad and Cam didn''t quarrel, she would act like a spoiled child and


    say she wanted a younger brother or sister.


    But Cam never got pregnant!


    She loved Samuel deeply, raised Madelyn, and was kind to herter on. How could Madelyn bear to let


    such a good woman spend ten or eight years in prison?


    A tear fell on the photo, and Madelyn quickly wiped it away.


    At the door, Cam saw everything.


    Although she was worried, she tried to sound gentle, saying, "Aren''t you meeting someone? Tidy


    yourself upx before going out."


    Madelyn closed the photo album and put it away.


    Madelyn got up and changed her clothes. Before leaving, she couldn''t help but hug Cam.


    Cam felt uneasy.


    But when Madelyn looked up, she smiled faintly and told her that Vivian had found someone influential


    and that Daniel should show some respect. Then, Cam let her go.


    Madelyn leaned against the door for a long time after she slowly closed the door behind her.


    --She just sold herself!


    Madelyn stared at the sky quietly for a long time, turned around and walked onto the bus.


    By the time she arrived Daniel''s vi, it was already 8 pm. Dressed in a suit and tie, Daniel was sitting


    on the sofa and drinking wine. The light of the crystal chandelier above reflected the mour of


    luxurious crystals, making his handsome face look even more attractive!


    If it were before, Madelyn''s heart would flip, but now she only felt disgusted.


    Daniel asked in a hoarse voice, "Where did you go? I''ve been calling you all day!"

 Chapter 40 Daniel, We Dont Have to Be Like This

    Chapter 40 Daniel, We Don''t Have to Be Like This


    Chapter 40 Daniel, We Don''t Have to Be Like This


    Madelyn made no response.


    Daniel looked at her silently for a while, then put down his wine ss and stood up, saying, "Dinner is


    ready."


    Madelyn said with an indifferent look, "Daniel, you don''t have to do this."


    Her words made Daniel amused.


    He walked over to her, pinched her chin, and whispered, "You''re right! We don''t have to be like this.


    After all, you now see me as a monster!... Madelyn, do you really hate me that much?"


    Madelyn stood up straight and fought her tears back.


    A man like him was not worth her tears.


    She stared at him and said slowly, "Whether I love you or hate you won''t change anything."


    "Well then, why don''t you love me? At least you''ll feel better, right?" Daniel asked while gently


    caressing her face, and surprisingly he loved the feel of her face.


    He always got women, and even a beautiful fianc¨¦e now.


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    But Madelyn was different. He treasured her so much and waited patiently for four years. Now he


    wanted to screw her and eat her up.


    Madelyn''s eyes were red with tears.


    In a calm tone, she said, "I have to go home tonight. And... Daniel, if you want me to stay with you,


    you''ll have to wait until my father and Cam leave Gredax safely. Otherwise, we are done here."


    Daniel took a step back and sized her up.


    He chuckled and said, "When did you be so sharp-tongued?"


    Feeling in a particrly good mood today, he made an exception for her and agreed, "Okay, anything


    you say. As long as you promise to stay with me, I''ll make sure your father and Cam leave Gredax


    safe and sound, and I''ll return everything that belongs to the Green family."


    Madelyn was relieved.


    Daniel suddenly hugged her slender waist and rested his chin on her shoulder, saying gently, "I have


    bought a vi for you in the suburbs, and I''lle and spend the day with you when I have time, all


    right?"


    Although Madelyn was still cold and distant, she wasn''t so resistant as before.


    Daniel tried to please her and whispered in her ear, "Shall we have another child? Madelyn, I want to


    have a daughter as adorable as you."


    Madelyn was disgusted!


    Vivian was right. Daniel must be a schizophrenic! Otherwise, how could he do such terrible things and


    still acted like he loved her so deeply?


    Madelyn loathed him, and her body stiffened because she didn''t want to be touched by him.


    How could Daniel not know?


    He sneered and didn''t care much about it.


    Anyway, she was in his hands now, and he could slowly make her be the good girl for him. Madelyn


    was so pure and innocent, and he wanted to the only one that upied her heart.


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t stay for long.


    When she left, Daniel escorted her to the vi''s doorstep.


    Madelyn was given a new set of keys to his vi.


    "I''ll drop the charges tomorrow! Your father and Cam will be fine!" Daniel said with a smile, "Madelyn,


    I don''t like waiting too long. Don''t disappoint me, will you?"


    In the light of the entrance...


    Looking beautiful under the light, Madelyn replied slowly, "Daniel, when did I ever let you down?"


    With these words, she looked up at him.


    Her once gentle and affectionate eyes were now full of resentment.


    Daniel didn''t want to see that again.


    He wanted to drive her back, but Madelyn refused.


    "It''s raining. Won''t you give me the chance of paying court to you?" He teased her.


    Madelyn lowered her head and sneered, "Daniel, I''ve already told you that we don''t have to be like


    this." After saying that, she pushed him away and walked into the rainy night.


    Rejected by Madelyn and watching her back, Daniel suddenly had a hunch that no matter what means


    he used to keep Madelyn by his side, her heart no longer belonged to him.


    However, Daniel didn''t feel disappointed for too long.


    He was convinced that he just wanted to conquer Madelyn, and he had never loved her.


    Never!

 Chapter 41 Benjamins Tenderness Is Her Redemption

    Chapter 41 Benjamin''s Tenderness Is Her Redemption


    Chapter 41 Benjamin''s Tenderness Is Her Redemption


    Madelyn walked out of the vi.


    The rain became heavier, and the world seemed cloaked in mist. In the dim street light, the rain was


    dropping into small puddles on the ground.


    Feeling numb, Madelyn walked in high heels through the cold, rainy night. She walked for such a long


    time that her feet got injured, and blood dripped down her fair-skinned instep.


    It was so painful...


    Madelyn raised her head slightly and let the cold rain fall on her face.


    Loving Daniel had been her sin!


    Now all her feelings left for him were nothing but hatred, and she didn''t want to spend her whole life


    paying for what she did. She would rather die with him.


    Tears welled up in Madelyn''s eyes, but on a cold night, it seemed that no one would notice her crying.


    She slowly crouched down, letting the rain wash over her body and soul...


    A ck umbre was held over her head by a tall figure standing beside her.


    Madelyn looked up.


    And she saw Benjamin!


    He was dressed in a suit, looking mature and handsome, as if he had juste from some formal


    asion. As he gazed at her, the heat of his eyes made Madelyn''s heart skip a beat.


    Benjamin, it was him again!


    Why did he always show up when she was in a mess, and she... was saved by him.


    "Ms. Green, I''ve been looking for you all night," Benjamin said in a low and deep voice, which sounded


    even more charming than the music of a cello.


    Madelyn looked up at him, while he extended one hand to her.


    She didn''t move, for her entire body was too stiff to make a response.


    "Poor thing," Benjamin sighed.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    He simply bent down and carried her in his arms. Her body was already soaked, which made his


    clothes wet too, but who cared?


    Madelyn then came to feel the heat of Benjamin''s body.


    Their faces almost touched. Madelyn could bury her face in his neck if she lowered her head, and their


    posture was very intimate, which almost made her have an illusion that...


    Feeling uneasy, Madelyn tried to struggle.


    But Benjamin said in a hoarse voice, "Don''t move!"


    He gently ced the umbre in her palm. His hand felt so too hot that Madelyn wanted to escape, but


    he didn''t allow it. He immediately took her hand in his.


    Madelyn stared at him, and her red lips slightly parted, which looked very tempting.


    Benjamin lowered his head and gave her a lingering kiss in the rain.


    The rain pattered down, and it was so quiet that it seemed as if there were only the two of them in the


    world. Madelyn resisted at first, but Benjamin was unexpectedly dominant in the romantic rtionship,


    and she was gradually tamed.


    The ck umbre fell to the ground and was carried away by the wind...


    Madelyn couldn''t help but hold his neck, tilt her head, and kiss him as if she was offering herself as a


    sacrifice to him. The sound of the passionate kissing made her face flush and her heart pound...


    At this moment, they didn''t need to say anything, but they still understood each other.


    Daniel was no longer bothering her...


    Benjamin took Madelyn to his luxurious apartment in the downtown area. He looked at the wet clothes


    on her and took a ck shirt out of the closet and gave it to her. "Take a shower and change your


    clothes. Wear this for tonight, and I''ll have my secretary bring some clothes for you tomorrow morning."


    Madelyn was 24 years old and was not ignorant.


    She silently took the shirt over and looked up at Benjamin.


    However, he brought a bathrobe with him and went to the guest bedroom. Madelyn was surprised but


    less nervous. At that moment, she had time to look around Benjamin''s bedroom.


    He preferred modern art characteristic of heavy metal elements and the entire bedroom was decorated


    in a cold-tone and personal style.


    Dark gray furniture.


    ck sheets and ck curtains.


    Madelyn bit her lip and went to the bathroom...When she came out, she was only wearing his shirt.


    Benjamin was very tall and was around 6 feet. His shirt was sorge that she could wear it as a


    nightdress. It was loose andfortable, and the dark color ttered her fair skin tone. The shirt


    couldn''t cover her long and slender legs.


    When Benjamin came in to fetch some documents, he saw her wearing his shirt.


    His Adam''s apple rolled twice.

 Chapter 42 Yes, Madelyn Is with Me

    Chapter 42 Yes, Madelyn Is with Me


    Chapter 42 Yes, Madelyn Is with Me


    Under his gaze, Madelyn''s body trembled slightly.


    Benjamin handed his phone to her and said, "Give your Mom a call, so she won''t be worried! ...Your


    phone has been turned off all day!"


    Madelyn took the phone and thanked him. Then she walked to the window and dialed Cam''s


    number.


    Cam was still afraid that she would makepromises with Daniel, so she asked a few more


    questions!


    Madelyn bit her lip, unsure of what to say.


    The phone was taken by a slender hand, and Benjamin talked in a gentle tone, "Cam, Madelyn is


    with me! My surname is rk, I''m awyer named Benjamin rk."


    Madelyn was shocked.


    She never expected Benjamin to be willing to tell others about their rtionship...did he know what he


    was doing?


    Not only her, but Cam on the other end of the phone was also stunned.


    She pinched herself hard to make sure that she wasn''t dreaming!


    Was she really talking to Benjamin rk?


    The brother-inw of that bastard Daniel?


    Cam was too surprised to say a word. Benjamin easily exined why Madelyn was with him with just


    a few words.


    After hanging up the phone, Benjamin looked at Madelyn and said, "You can go to the kitchen and


    make some ginger tea for yourself. Then, go to bed first...I have some things to deal with."


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    After saying these, he was about to walk towards the study.


    Madelyn tugged on his sleeve and said, "Benjamin."


    He turned around.


    Madelyn said hesitantly, "I...I and Daniel..." She meant her agreement with Daniel.


    Benjamin''s face turned a little grim, and he said slowly, "I thought you had made your choice when you


    came back with me."


    He put his hand on her head and then gently stroked her hair.


    "Nothing will happen between you and Daniel."


    After saying that, he went into the study. Madelyn kept thinking about what he meant by saying those


    words...Later, she figured out that he was willing to make an exception mainly for Eloise! Only if he


    slept with her, would Daniel give up.


    Madelyn felt a little relieved.


    She went to the kitchen to prepare ginger tea. Benjamin''s kitchen looked like a model room. She


    doubted if he had ever cooked, but when she opened the refrigerator, she found that there were many


    kinds of food such as meat, eggs, and milk.


    Madelyn took out a piece of ginger and made two cups of ginger tea.


    She brought one cup to Benjamin.


    In the study, Benjamin was talking on the phone. When he saw Madelyn at the door, he didn''t avoid


    making business calls in front of her. Instead, he gestured for her toe in.


    Madelyn put the ginger tea on his desk and was about to leave.


    But he grabbed her wrist and pulled her onto hisp.


    Benjamin continued to talk to Owen on the phone as his other hand moved around her body. Madelyn


    couldn''t stand his touching and teasing, and she lightly bit him as she rested on his shoulder.


    Benjamin stared at her, and she could see the burning desires in his eyes.


    Suddenly, Owen mentioned Madelyn on the phone.


    Benjamin smiled and asked, "Do you want to talk to her? She''s with me."


    Owen was surprised but then joked, "Benjamin, that''s quick. David would be crying at home if he


    knew."


    "He''s not that fragile!" Benjamin ended this topic in just a few words.


    He quickly finished the conversation and read a few more files which were all rted to Samuel''s case.


    When he was not that busy, he drank the ginger tea up and told Madelyn to go to sleep, for he still had


    some work to do.


    Madelyn didn''t insist on sleeping in the guest room. She knew exactly what he wanted!


    After entering the master bedroom, Madelyn lifted the light quilt andy down in bed. In the dim light,


    her skin looked white as snow against the ck sheets.


    She was a little nervous, but she didn''t know when Benjamin woulde back to sleep.


    Would he...

    Madelyn was rather tired.


    But she turned and tossed in bed at night, unable to fall asleep at all. Every time she was about to doze


    off, she would feel herself being held by Benjamin''s strong arms. She heard him calling her name


    softly, "Madelyn..."


    And then she woke with a start.


    In the dark bedroom, only the moonlight filtered through the cracks of the window curtains, making her


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    feel hazy and unreal.


    She sat up and gently stroked her face.


    It was not a dream.


    She was at Benjamin''s house and slept on his bed...


    The door of the bedroom was opened slightly. It was Benjamin who came back to sleep after his work


    was done. He then saw Madelyn sitting on the bed with a dazed look like a poor puppy.


    He let go of the idea of turning on the light and went to bed. He sat down and gently stroked her soft


    long hair, "Why are you still up?"


    Madelyn followed his hand and leaned on his shoulder meekly.


    As he knew what she wanted to ask, he whispered in her ear, "I have arranged it just now. I will go to


    the detention center tomorrow morning. Well, he will be released on bail if nothing happens."


    Madelyn was rather thankful.


    She just held his neck instead of saying anything.


    As Benjamin was at a young age, he had no need to wrong himself. So everything happened naturally.


    He made the lead and they held each other and kissed.


    She was somewhat nervous as it was her first time doing it. She was in a spin about what to do.


    And her body trembled even more.


    However, the more she behaved like that, the more emotional he became...


    As they both lost their minds, Madelyn frowned and let out a soft cry of pain.


    "What''s wrong?" Benjamin let go of the hot breath and asked her softly in her ear.


    Her voice quivered, "I skin my heel and it hurts a bit."


    He rested the back of her head with his hand and looked down at her from above. For fear that he


    should be upset, she held his neck tightly and said softly, "But it doesn''t hurt anymore."


    He chuckled as he heard that.


    He lightly rubbed her nose with his and asked in a rather hoarse voice, "More anxious than me, huh,


    Ms. Green?"


    She colored greatly.


    He stopped teasing her and reached out to turn on the bedsidemp. The dim yellow light made them


    see each other''s looks clearly.


    Hurriedly, she took the sheet to cover herself.


    He smiled, "Look at you, so shy? Well, I thought you were a girl knowing nothing about it and I didn''t


    dare to do it."


    He was purely joking. But he had no idea that it wasindeed her first time.


    He got out of bed to get the medicine box for her, while she was looking at his back.


    She found that he had a big-boned figure covered with thin muscles, which made him look slender


    instead of too strong.


    She put on her shirt hurriedly before he came back.


    After a while, as he was back with the medicine box, she was already sitting by the bed. She said


    softly, "I''ll do it myself."


    But he just held her.


    He squatted down and bent his knees. And then he held one of her feet and applied the medicine to it


    gently.


    She had a great sense of unease.


    In their rtionship, she felt that he had no need to be that kind to her, that considerate at least.


    He raised his eyes and said, "Just stay still."


    He probably guessed her thoughts and said softly, "Well, I hate forcing others. We are equal to each


    other during the time we are together... Well, the most ideal state is that we both feel delighted."


    How coquettish those words were!


    Madelyn wanted to ask him how many times he had that kind of rtionship. But she just felt bored as


    she was about to speak it out. Actually, they were not romantically involved at all! He didn''t say the truth


    clearly, but she understood what he meant. He would be kind to her, but their rtionship would end up


    in his feeling of boredom!


    She thought that she should be grateful to him for giving her a little self-esteem when she was most


    awkward.

    Whether it was out of gratitude or Benjamin''s own charm, Madelyn just put her arms around his neck


    and kissed him.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    He stared at her and the passion in his look made her feel all hot. She mustered up the courage to ask


    him, "Shall we move on?"


    Suddenly, he leaned over.


    He advanced while she retreated... She was forced to lie on her back and she barely supported herself


    with her hands.


    She didn''t dare to look at him at all. She lowered her eyes slightly and her long eyshes cast


    shadows by the light, like a row of small fans.


    He took one of her hands and put it on his good-looking face to make her feel it.


    "Ms. Green, do you like it?"


    She opened her eyes wide and flushed uncontrobly.


    He touched her nose with his and said confidently, "Well, who is taking advantage of the other when we


    are together? You just look like you really want to have sex with me, don''t you?"


    "No! I want to sleep now." She slid farther under the covers.


    But he looked like he was rather upset.


    In fact, he was busy for days and already rather tired. He just felt her provocative as he came in and


    saw her in a ck shirt, but he didn''t have the mood to move on after the interruption.


    He packed up the medicine box and went to bed. But he was not used to sharing the bed with her, so


    he just simply dragged her into his arms and entwined his fingers with hers.


    She was trapped in his arms and didn''t dare to move.


    She thought she would not fall asleep at all. However, with his steady heartbeat, she soon drifted into


    sleep.


    It was her best sleep in recent days.


    ...


    It was already 8 o''clock in the morning when Madelyn woke up.


    She sat up suddenly and saw that Benjamin had gotten up and was standing beside the bed wearing a


    tie.


    He put on a dark blue shirt and gray trousers.


    He looked mature and handsome.


    Finding that she woke up, he said naturally, "I''m going outter! Why don''t you go home and pack up


    during the day? I''ll pick you up at night."


    "I wille here when you are looking for me. Isn''t it better?" said she softly.


    He smiled lightly, "It''s more convenient to live here."


    As he was rather busy with work, it would be too troublesome for him to pick her up when he wanted to


    see her asionally.


    She wasn''t against it anymore.


    At that time, the sound of doing housework and the fragrance of food were drifting from outside.


    Madelyn was a little surprised.


    Benjamin found her look and exined, "It''s ire! She wille and work here for 4 hours every


    morning to make breakfast and clean up the house. Well, it won''t affect the normal life at all."


    She nodded as she heard that.


    She got out of bed and tied his tie for him.


    As she had supple fingers, the necktie she made was rather nice.


    He couldn''t help asking her, "You used to do it all the time for Daniel?"


    What he had said was a dagger to her heart.


    Actually, she didn''t. She often helped her father wear a tie and thus knew how to do it. Daniel... didn''t


    like her touching him at all. He always kept a distance from her.


    She defied him in a low voice, "Benjamin, can we just leave his name alone?"


    He didn''t move on. Instead, he pointed to the paper bag on the bedside table and said, "Paisley sent it


    here early in the morning. Apart from the clothes, there is also a set of underwear. Why don''t you have


    a try?"


    Her face was burning. She didn''t dare to think what Paisley''s idea was.


    Benjamin pinched her face gently, "Are you shy again? Come on, we love each other and the outsiders


    won''t say anything improper."


    And then he walked out of the bedroom.


    With hot cheeks, she took the clothes to the bathroom and got changed. They fitted well and even the


    size of the underwear was right. However, as she thought that it was he who offered the size, she felt


    even more ashamed.


    Benjamin was reading the morning financial newspaper and drinking coffee in the huge restaurant.


    Besides the work in thew firm, he also had other businesses, but he passed most of them to a


    professional team to operate, which saved him a lot of energies.


    Madelyn came out of the bedroom.


    He looked up at her for a long time before saying to her, "It''s rather pretty."

 Chapter 45 Daniel, Ive Changed My Mind

    Chapter 45 Daniel, I''ve Changed My Mind


    Chapter 45 Daniel, I''ve Changed My Mind


    Madelyn also felt that the dress was quite her style. She sat down andplimented Paisley, "Paisley


    himself has a good eye."


    Benjamin didn''t reply to her.


    ire, the housekeeper, brought over a Western-style breakfast and said apologetically, "Oh, I didn''t


    know Ms. Green would be here! You''ll have to make do today. Please tell me what you like and I will


    make it for you tomorrow morning."


    Madelyn loved Chinese breakfast, but she was at Benjamin''s house and his housekeeper worked for


    him.


    She had no reason to give the housekeeper instructions.


    She smiled slightly and said, "This is rather nice."


    ire breathed a sigh of relief as she heard that. She felt that Madelyn seemed to be someone easy to


    get along with. She rubbed her hands and went into the kitchen to work with great dexterity.


    Benjamin folded the newspaper.


    He looked at Madelyn and found that she was drinking milk with downcast eyes. After all, she came


    from a middle-ss family and ate politely without any affected air.


    He thought that she was a joy to behold.


    Benjamin came from a better family than others. As he grew up, he was rather popr among


    countless women because of his appearance and ability. He set the bar rather high and was quite


    picky. Other men may like those naive little girls who knew little about life to keep thempany, which


    made them satisfied. But Benjamin was not one of them. He would first pay attention to the


    family was rather important.


    He loved both Madelyn''s look and temperament.


    And he was even willing to live with her.


    But Madelyn had no idea about them. She drank half a ss of milk and decided to tell him after


    thinking about it, "Well, I lost all my other jobs, except Florence''s ss. I have her ss tomorrow


    night."


    He wasn''t against it.


    He asked her ndly, "Love the piano a lot, huh? I find that you y it rather well. I mean, why don''t


    you continue your studies?" After all, her family could afford the expense.


    She just smiled lightly as she heard that.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    In fact, she had thought about it before. She had once received the admission notice from the Monatiz


    Academy of Music and had packed her luggage. But Cam objected fiercely. She said Madelyn was


    the child she brought up with great difficulty and she couldn''t let Madelyn go away.


    Cam didn''t have a kid in her life and thus was very possessive towards Madelyn.


    After a month''s seesaw, Madelyn chose to stay at Gredax.


    Her teacher said to her regretfully, "Madelyn, you are the most talented child I have ever seen. It is


    such a pity that you choose to teach here instead of going abroad for further study."


    But she felt that there was no need to tell Benjamin about it. It was her own life.


    He found that something was wrong with her look. As he was about to say something, his phone rang.


    It was a message from his father.


    "Benjamin, we have a clue to Leonardo''s daughter whom he has been looking for for many years. Just


    spare some time when hees back from abroad."


    Alexander also sent a picture.


    It was a pink diamond ne.


    He found it rather familiar, but he couldn''t remember it for the moment.


    Coincidentally, Paisley called and he just left the photo album.


    Paisley worked effectively. He had arranged the bail matter for Samuel and waited for Benjamin to sign.


    Benjamin hung up the phone.


    He said to Madelyn, "I''m going to the detention center. Well, just go home and wait for my news. I think


    you will see him today."


    She was rather grateful to him and thanked him softly.


    He took his coat and got up, looking quite personable. She changed her shoes and apanied him


    to the downstairs.


    There was a ck luxury car parked.


    Paisley was waiting as he stood by the car. Seeing Madelyn, he nodded politely as a way of greeting,


    "Ms. Green."


    Madelyn also gave a nod.


    Benjamin opened the car door and got in. As he was good-looking with a perfect demeanor, he looked


    so elegant and dignified.


    Suddenly, what he had said urred to her mind.


    "Madelyn, we are together, but who is taking advantage of the other!"


    She couldn''t agree more at that time.


    She watched as he drove away. When she was about to go upstairs, her phone rang.


    It was Daniel.


    She still answered the phone after thinking about it. She only said a few words softly, "Daniel, I''ve


    changed my mind."

    Chapter 46 Darling, Don''t Regret It!


    Chapter 46 Darling, Don''t Regret It!


    Daniel doubted it. "Are you going to abandon your father and Cam? Are you just going to stand by


    and watch them go to prison?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to say too much to him.


    She just said, "I won''t go to your vi anymore. I''ll mail the key to you."


    Daniel''s heart skipped a beat.


    What made Madelyn change her mind all of a sudden? He wanted to ask a question, but Madelyn had


    already hung up.


    Daniel dialed his secretary''s number with a gloomy face. "I need you to check what''s going on with


    Samuel these days."


    The secretary looked into it at once and then called back five minutester, his voice trembling, "Mr.


    Campbell, Samuel has changed hiswyer! I''ll keep looking here."


    "No need!" Daniel hung up.


    He wanted to make a personal visit to the detention house. He wanted to see who would have the guts


    to take on the case without his permission, and what would change.


    Daniel quickly opened the car door and drove to the detention house. The wound on his waist had not


    healed, and the gauze was red with blood, but he did not care.


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    Twenty minutester, Daniel''s car was parked at the detention house. When he got out of the car, he


    saw a graceful and dashing figure walk out with people crowded around him.


    It was Benjamin.


    He was handsome, upright, and noble in an expensive suit.


    Now he was walking down the stairs. Several officials walked along with him and talked to him politely.


    Paisley was also present,ughing. "We will see ourselves out, please! Thanks for helping us with this


    issue."


    Those few guys acted nice.


    They ought to do Benjamin a favor for the sake of the rk family!


    Benjamin appreciated the propriety and necessity, shook hands with each of the others, and said


    goodbye... When Benjamin left, those guys looked at each other and smiled. One of them said, "This is


    the first time I''ve seen the undefeatable butcher of the legal profession, and he looks so fucking


    awesome!"


    The others thought the same thing.


    He was handsome, rich, and in a privileged position. Who didn''t envy him?


    ...


    Daniel watched all of this and clenched his fist.


    It was Benjamin who took this case!


    He specially picked a time toe on to her when Benjamin was not in Gredax, but he did not expect


    Benjamin toe back untimely. Obviously, Benjamin was not that crazy about Madelyn, but just had


    fun by messing with her!


    Daniel was not reconciled to this.


    He watched as the specially privileged man walked toward him.


    Unexpectedly, Benjamin looked like nothing had happened, patted Daniel''s shoulder, and smiled faintly,


    "Eloise said you got hurt and was gonna check on you! Now I''m relieved to see that you''re fine... By the


    way,e home for lunch."


    Daniel nodded expressionlessly.


    Benjamin gave a little chortle, lowered his head, and lit a cigarette. He took a few puffs of his cigarette


    slowly before walking toward the car.


    The two men brushed past each other.


    Daniel felt a strong sense of oppression in front of thepelling Benjamin! From beginning to end,


    Daniel did not ask Madelyn anything.


    He didn''t need to ask. Madelyn was with Benjamin.


    When Benjamin''s car drove away, Daniel took out his cell phone automatically and dialed Madelyn''s


    number again.


    He gritted his teeth. "Madelyn, you are a real piece of work!"


    On the other side, Madelyn said calmly, "Daniel... I am just giving you a taste of your own medicine.


    What''s wrong with that?"


    "No! There''s nothing wrong with you!" Daniel sneered, "Honey, just don''t regret it!"


    Madelyn hung up straight away.


    At this time, the phone rang twice more. She turned her phone on and saw a message from Benjamin.


    The message said, "Your father was transferred to YouHeal Hospital. You can go to visit him with your


    mom. He will be able to go home once he is healed."


    Madelyn read this message a few times.


    She read this text message for so long that her own eyes became misty with tears.


    Only then did she feel... a sense of the real in her life ... She felt alive.

    Madelyn hung up on Daniel, and he banged angrily on the car.


    Madelyn!


    Was this the same Madelyn he knew?


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Daniel was in a foul mood, and he didn''t want to admit that his mood was spoiled by Madelyn.


    She was just a woman he couldn''t have!


    Daniel did not go to the hospital to dress the wound but drove to a club where he used to go to


    socialize. The club was high-end, and those who could have fun here had high social status.


    Daniel got a private room and drank alone in the middle of the day.


    The manager came over and had a few drinks with him before asking obligingly, "Mr. Campbell, are you


    at odds with your girlfriend? Look at you, drown your sorrow in booze so early in the morning. But that''s


    not supposed to happen. I heard that the crown jewel of the rk family is simply wrapped up in you!"


    Daniel leaned back on the leather sofa, lowering his dark eyes. "Wrapped up in me?"


    The manager smiled and poured him wine. "A woman will listen to you if she is so in love with you."


    Daniel drank half a ss of wine without saying a word.


    He pped a smile on his face only after quite a while. "If she doesn''t listen to me anymore, it means


    she doesn''t like me, does it?"


    "How can it be! Mr. Campbell, I have faith in your capability." The managerplimented.


    He could tell that Daniel was upset about a woman, so he was quite quick-witted and called a girl over.


    She was young and innocent.


    "Talk to Mr. Campbell and keep him amused." The manager was implicit in his speech.


    Daniel was going to refuse, but as soon as he raised his eyes, he froze.


    Her pure little face was simr to Madelyn''s, especially her profile. He just somewhat got carried away


    as he stared at her face. He reached out to pull the girl to his side and called out, "Madelyn?"


    The manager was sensitive and withdrew.


    They were the only ones left in the extravagant room.


    It was the girl''s whole job, and she naturally knew how to make men happy. She took the initiative to


    put her arm around Daniel''s neck and kissed him. When Daniel was mesmerized by the kiss, he


    pressed her to the sofa...


    They had sex.


    Daniel asked casually after then, "What''s your name?"


    "Caroline," the girl helped him into his clothing meekly.


    Daniel smiled flirtatiously, "That''s a good name."


    Caroline blushed and hugged his waist ravishingly. "Mr. Campbell, when will youe to see me


    again?"


    Daniel lit a cigarette and took a few slow puffs.


    "We shall see!"


    The girl was a little disappointed. She just wanted to test whether Mr. Campbell wanted to keep her.


    After all, he was quite frisky and kept hugging her and calling out ''Madelyn'' just now.


    It didn''t matter who ''Madelyn'' was. What mattered was that she was able to hook up with a mega-rich.


    Daniel didn''t have the heart to get all tangled up with her and soon left the club.


    He got into the car and raised his hand to check the time. It was eleven o ''clock. It was just about time


    for him to go to have lunch at the rks'' mansion. Daniel''s face turned gloomy as he thought of


    meeting Benjamin...


    To his surprise, when he arrived at the rks'' mansion, Benjamin had not yet returned.


    Eloise came down from upstairs with her cell phone and said in a sweet girlish voice to her parents, "I


    don''t know what''s keeping my brother. He said he woulde back for lunch, but now it''s going to be


    three o''clock in the afternoon."


    Daniel clenched his fist.


    He knew exactly what Benjamin was up to.


    But he appeared to be calm and collected as he was ying chess with Alexander.


    Eloise sat down next to him and said softly, "Don''t be offended by this. My brother didn''t mean it."


    A faint smile passed across Daniel''s old lips. "It''s fine."


    Alexander was quite pleased with his future son-inw-to-be. He looked at his darling daughter


    sideways and said, "You think Daniel is as fussy as you are? How can he run his business if he''s like


    you?"


    Daniel put his arm around his fianc¨¦e tenderly, "Eloise is very understanding."


    Eloise felt sweet. When she was about to say something, she suddenly leaned over Daniel''s shoulder


    and sniffed at him, "Daniel, why do you smell of perfume?"

 Chapter 48 Calling in Front of Daniel

    Chapter 48 Calling in Front of Daniel


    Chapter 48 Calling in Front of Daniel


    Daniel''s eyes were twitching.


    He thought it must be the perfume from the clubhouse.


    He smiled to cover up what he had done. I went to the hospital early in the morning to change my


    dressing. Maybe it''s the nurse''s perfume."


    Eloise was displeased, fiddling with her nails and giving him attitude. "That nurse must be young and


    pretty! You must have liked it when she changed your dressing."


    Daniel broke into a smile.


    He nipped her cheeks, "You sound jealous."


    Eloise loved him deeply and was not suspicious at all. She pushed this into the back of her mind when


    he sweet-talked her. And she leaned on his shoulder, her face glowing with happiness.


    Alexander said as he dropped a piece onto the chessboard, "Girls should have a reserved manner!"


    How could parents not know about their children? Benjamin warned that Eloise was entirely faithful and


    simple, and was destined to be under the thumb.


    However, Alexander thought it was great for his innocent daughter to have a boyfriend like Daniel, who


    was a wise tactician.


    Daniel easily passed the test, and a smile curled the corners of his mouth.


    Just then, Brianna came over and said with a smile, "Since Benjamin is not home yet, why don''t we eat


    first? The maids have already served the food."


    Eloise pulled Daniel up and held his arm affectionately.


    Alexander and Brianna smiled at each other.


    The dining room had a good vibe. Daniel was very good with words, and the rk family really liked


    him.


    ...


    After dinner, Eloise pulled him to the second floor and into her bedroom.


    The door closed, and she initiated a kiss with him... She wanted to make out with him.


    However, Daniel was injured and had just had sex with someone else in the morning. He didn''t have


    the strength to do this. Besides, he wasn''t in the mood. Finally, he put her off with a few kisses.


    He teased her in a husky voice. "Let''s wait a few more days, okay?"


    Eloise was coy.


    She hugged him around the waist and inhaled the smell of him. "I wish you''d take a shower and wash


    the perfume off. But I''ll let it pass since the perfume is from a nurse."


    Daniel''s eyes became pensive.


    ...


    The unmarried couple took a nap.


    There was a car sound from downstairs. It should be Benjamining back. Daniel gently removed his


    fiancee''s hand and walked out to the patio to watch.N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    It was really Benjamin.


    The temperature was high in the afternoon. He took off his jacket, wearing a dark blue shirt and pants


    underneath. He was talking on his cell phone, standing just below Daniel.


    "Yeah! I went back to the mansion, and I''ll pick you up around five o''clock!"


    "Get your bags packed."


    ...


    Daniel was uptight because he knew it was Madelyn on the phone with Benjamin.


    Was Madelyn moving in with Benjamin?


    At this point, Benjamin tilted his head back and saw Daniel. Their eyes locked.


    Benjamin gave a softugh.


    He said gently to the other side of the phone, "Nothing, I saw an acquaintance! Gotta go... You can buy


    thingster on the way that you can''t take with you."


    With that, he hung up.


    Daniel looked terribly glum!


    Eloise woke up just then, came over, and hugged his waist, trying to kiss him, but Daniel was not in the


    mood. "Your brother is back. Let''s go downstairs."


    Eloise, being perfectly simple, still noticed he was cold with her, and she was a bit down.


    Daniel cheered her up.


    Eloise was d as she went downstairs.


    Benjamin sat on the sofa reading a magazine, and Eloise flung herself into his arms. "Brother."


    Benjamin pinched her cheeks. "You''re so close to me after you''ve all grown up. What if Daniel gets


    jealous?"


    "He won''t." Eloise hugged his arm and said in a baby voice. "Brother, didn''t you sayst time that you


    got some projects? It''s better to have your own people doing these projects than to have outsiders


    doing them."


    Benjamin raised his eyes to Daniel and smiled meaningfully, "Dad was right when he said that the


    daughter grew up, she would side with outsiders."


    "Brother." Eloise pouted prettily again.

    Chapter 49 A Blow to the Man Following Behind


    Benjamin quipped but readily agreed.


    "I know you are the best." Eloise took Daniel''s hand again, signaling him to smooth things over with


    Benjamin. She always felt that they were not getting along, but she did not know why.


    Daniel was to be the son-inw of the rk family. The rk Group was several timesrger than the


    Campbell Group. And the Campbell family could not bepared with the rk family in terms of


    contacts.


    Madelyn was not really much of a reason for him to fall out with Benjamin.


    He said politely, "Benjamin, thank you."


    A slight smile broke on Benjamin''s lips.


    He picked up the magazine again and flipped through it casually. His attitude was apathetic anyhow,


    and Eloise''s pouting didn''t help.


    At 4:30 p.m., Benjamin got up from the sofa.


    "I have work to do. I''m going back."


    Brianna and Alexander finally got a chance to see their son and naturally had to keep him for dinner.


    "Maybe another time! I really have something to take care of." Benjamin stroked Eloise''s head.


    As soon as Benjamin left, Daniel said he wouldn''t stay for dinner.


    Eloise, fearing that he would be embarrassed, took the initiative to find an excuse for him and sent him


    to the car, saying lovingly, "I hope you don''t mind. My brother has always been this way! He never


    warms up to anyone."


    Daniel snorted out augh.


    What was Madelyn if he couldn''t warm up to anyone?


    He got into the car without saying anything and followed Benjamin''s car at a very great distance.


    With his hands on the steering wheel, Benjamin looked in the rearview mirror.


    He saw Daniel''s car.


    He smiled, with no intention to ditch Daniel, and drove unhurriedly to make sure Daniel could keep up.


    Half an hourter, he picked up Madelyn.


    Madelyn must have met Samuel. When she got into the car, her eyes were conspicuously red...


    Benjamin was not very attentive, especially to women. But now he asked gently, "Why are you crying


    like that after you''ve seen him? Do your eyes hurt?"


    "I''m not crying." Madelyn concealed her emotion.


    Benjamin chuckled, leaned over, and murmured, "Or are you crying because you''re going to be bullied


    by me? You''re crying so much before I''ve done anything to you."


    Madelyn silently turned her face away.


    Benjamin smiled, and as he started the car, he nced in the rearview mirror.


    Daniel was so patient and was still following him!

    It was the end of the day, and there was some traffic jam.


    At a stoplight, Benjamin casually asked about Samuel, and Madelyn told him everything.


    "Have you got everything needed in such a small box?" Benjamin suddenly asked.


    Madelyn thought about it for a second. "You don''t have any women''s slippers there. I want to buy a pair


    of them."


    Benjamin grunted yes.


    He rolled down the window and lit a cigarette with his head down, smoking with his elbow against the


    window... The man driving behind could see them clearly now.


    The traffic moved so slowly that it took them half an hour to get near the apartment.


    Benjamin pulled over to the side of the road.


    He unbuckled his seatbelt, tilt his head sideways, and said to Madelyn, "There''s a home store across


    the street. You can go over and buy whatever you want. I''m going to the pharmacy there to get some


    medicine."


    As he spoke, he took out a tinum card from his wallet and told Madelyn the password.


    "Pay domestic costs with this card."


    Madelyn didn''t refuse after a moment''s hesitation. She got out of the car and walked into the home


    store. She didn''t know the upants of the building where Benjamin lived often shopped there. She


    would run into the neighbors if she went shopping here more often.


    Benjamin finished half of his cigarette and opened the door.


    He walked to the other side of the pharmacy and took two small square boxes directly from the counter.


    They werebeled L size.


    He took them in his hand, naturally pulled two $20 bills out of his wallet, and handed them to the


    cashier.


    The cashier, a woman in her early 40s, looked up, and her eyes were stuck. When she swiped his card,


    she felt romantic emotions and positively gagged for Benjamin using the two boxes of this on her...

 Chapter 50 Whatever You Wanted

    Chapter 50 Whatever You Wanted


    Chapter 50 Whatever You Wanted


    Benjamin returned to the car just as Madelyn finished her shopping.


    She got into the car with her purchases.


    Benjamin looked at the things in her hand and asked, "What''s thisrge package of stuff?"


    "Two sets of slippers for indoor use, and two bathrobes."


    Women loved buying things so much. He could not help taking a look at the package even though


    inside were just the most ordinary household objects.


    Benjamin looked askance at it. "Couple''s costume?"


    Madelyn blushed. "No! I see you''ve got all those white clothes..."


    To ease the awkwardness, she coughed softly, "Did you get your medicine?"


    Benjamin''s eyes became smoldering.


    He looked at her for a long time before slowly taking out two boxes from his trouser pocket and


    tantly putting them on the center console... Madelyn wanted to bite her tongue off at the sight of


    those familiar words.


    Why did she ask?


    Benjamin was outwardly dull but inside lustful. He was always prim and starchy but was wild privately.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but wonder if he did this a lot.


    ...


    Benjamin slowly drove his car into the parking lot of the apartment, while Daniel, who had been


    following behind him, naturally could not follow in. Daniel parked his car out there, sitting quietly by


    himself.


    He followed all the way and saw Madelyn get into Benjamin''s car.


    He saw her behave like a wife and go into the home store to do shopping.


    He saw Benjamin buy two boxes of condoms!


    Was he going to have Madelyn tonight?


    Daniel mmed the steering wheel and the ck sports car immediately let out an ear-splitting horn...


    The pedestrians looked at him like he was crazy.


    Daniel didn''t care about it.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    All he knew was that he had lost Madelyn. She was probably in Benjamin''s bed right now and got


    fucked so hard by him!


    ...


    Madelyn knew nothing of their rivalry.


    She followed Benjamin back to the apartment. As soon as she put her things down, Benjamin said


    coldly, "The nanny is away tonight. You make some simple dishes."


    Madelyn didn''t know what people wanted in their mistresses, and whether those mistresses were


    required to cook, but she was grateful to Benjamin and she would do anything for him.


    She was very good at cooking, and the two simple dishes were very tasty.


    Benjamin was quite surprised.


    He sat down, had a few bites, and looked up at her. "This is delicious!"


    "Thanks." Madelyn took small bites. She brought it up when he was in a good mood. "I''m going to Mr.


    James'' houseter to give lessons to Florence."


    Benjamin frowned.


    He agreed to it, but he wasn''t too happy about her going out to work as soon as she moved in.


    And... He bought that just now.


    Benjamin spoke in a t voice. "Take a taxi, and I''ll go take you home then."


    Madelyn didn''t dare let him pick her up and volunteered, "I''ll take a taxi back myself."


    Benjamin did not hold on to this.


    With his rtionship with Madelyn, there was really no need to be too clingy.


    After eating, he went into the study to tend to business.


    Madelyn cleaned up the dishes and did some simple cleaning. Then she found Benjamin leaning in the


    doorway of the study with a mug and looking at her thoughtfully.


    He saidzily, "You''re quite diligent. I thought I had found a hygiene model back."


    Madelyn was not stupid. She knew that he was angry.


    She meekly walked up to him, stood on the tips of her toes, and kissed him on the lips. "I''ll be back with


    you when I''m done teaching."


    "What''s Ms. Green going to do with me?"


    He sipped his coffee and asked somewhat uneasily.


    Madelyn''s face blushed again, and she plucked up the courage to talk dirty, "You can do whatever you


    want. I''ll go along with anything."


    Benjamin looked right into her.


    He chuckled, "Alright, you go!"


    He turned to the study, thinking that was a good thing! A woman who justy in bed to please a man


    was not fun at all! Instead, Madelyn gave him something to look forward to!

 Chapter 51 I Can Also Give Those Things to You

    Chapter 51 I Can Also Give Those Things to You


    Chapter 51 I Can Also Give Those Things to You


    Madelyn went out after getting changed.


    Before leaving, she nced into the study.


    Benjamin was still working in the study. She said in a soft voice, "I''ll be back before ten o''clock."


    It was an ordinary talk, but Benjamin felt touched when hearing these words.


    It felt different to have the other person at home.


    Indeed, he also thought it was a bit inconvenient with the other person at his house. However, so far,


    he felt it good. Madelyn was not a clingy person, but she was very submissive. The dishes she cooked


    were delicious and clean. She was...


    Benjamin didn''t dare to think further about it.


    He only mumbled an "Okay".


    Madelyn then left the house. She prepared to go downstairs to her apartment building to hail a taxi. It


    should be easy for her to get a car as the apartment was in the downtown area.


    However, she hadn''t expected that she would be blocked by a ck sports car as soon as she walked


    out of the apartment building.


    Against the bid wind, Daniel got out of his car.


    Madelyn''s heart skipped a beat when she saw him. Deep in her heart, she was afraid of staying alone


    with him, not to mention that Daniel had a gloomy expression now.


    She tried her best to suppress her emotions.


    Daniel slowly walked over and stopped before her. He didn''t resort to violence this time; instead, he


    said in a sarcastic tone, "I''ve looked down on you. I didn''t expect that you''d actually made Benjamin


    your backer. But Madelyn, do you think that you''ll get a good result after being Benjamin''s mistress? Do


    you know about his past? If you know anything about it, you won''t have done such a stupid thing."


    Madelyn smiled ndly.


    She didn''t answer his question. Instead, she asked, "Mr. Campbell, does this have anything to do with


    you?"


    She was not foolish and she had guessed that Benjamin had someone else in his heart.


    Herposure made Daniel breathless.


    He blurted out, "You don''t care about it? Are you willing to y this game with him? Madelyn, except for


    sex, what else can he give you?"


    "What about you?" Madelyn looked down with a sneer and continued, "Daniel, aren''t you the same?"


    She didn''t want to entangle with him, so she pushed him aside and walked to the roadside.


    However, Daniel suddenly grasped her hand with a force that Madelyn couldn''t break free from. He


    stared at her face gloomily and said, "I can give you what he has given you. As for things he hasn''t


    given you, I can also give them to you."


    Right at this moment, his self-esteemed as a man had overwhelmed anything else.


    He even thought that if Madelyn agreed to stay by his side for several years, maybe he could get a

    divorceter and marry her...


    Madelyn felt very disgusted.


    She warned in a low voice, "Let go. Otherwise, I''ll shout. Daniel, you don''t want to make a fuss and let


    this affect your perfect engagement with Eloise, right?"


    Daniel gritted his teeth and let go of her.


    Madelyn directly walked to the road and stopped a taxi. Then she quickly got into the taxi and left.


    Watching her leave yet unable to do anything, Daniel swooshed a punch on the top of his car.


    At the distance, Benjamin, who was holding two small boxes in his hands, witnessed the whole thing


    thoughtfully.


    He recalled that some condoms were left in the car when Madelyn left home and came downstairs. And


    he hadn''t expected that he would see such an interesting scene.


    Benjamin slightly curled up his lips, took out his phone, and dialed his secretary, Paisley. He ordered, "I


    want you to get the audit information of the Campbell Group in recent years and put the documents on


    my desk the next morning."


    Paisley, who was at the other of the line, was dumbfounded.


    The Campbell Group was run by the Campbells and their son, Daniel, was going to marry Benjamin''s


    sister. Was it appropriate for Benjamin to investigate their audit information?


    Paisley had experienced many things. And she soon realized that Benjamin did this because of


    Madelyn.


    When a man targets the other man, it''s apparent that it''s because he''s jealous.


    ...


    When Madelyn went back, it was half past ten.


    It seemed like Benjamin had finished his work. Leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window with a goblet


    of red wine in his hand, he seemed to be pondering about something.


    He didn''t turn around when Madelyn pushed open the door.


    Standing at the door, Madelyn bit her lip and lost in her thoughts.


    She didn''t know how others appeased men, but she knew that he liked her body and that what he


    wanted was just a sex-based rtionship. Therefore, she buckled up, walked over, hugged her from


    the back, and asked, "Have you finished your work?"

 Chapter 52 My Body Is Not Dirty

    Chapter 52 My Body Is Not Dirty


    Chapter 52 My Body Is Not Dirty


    Benjamin didn''t reply.


    He slowly finished off the wine in the goblet, pressed her hand under his palm, and caressed it


    flirtatiously.


    Madelyn was a mature woman. Although she had no experience in sex, she could understand such a


    sexual suggestion. She tiptoed, leaned toward his ear, and asked, "Shall I shower first?"


    Benjamin put the goblet aside.


    The next moment, he picked up Madelyn in bride style and put her on the bar counter.


    Behind her was the floor-to-ceiling window.


    In front of her was his burning body.


    Madelyn sensed his poor mood, but she didn''t know what she had done to irritate him.


    As expected, Benjamin only kissed her nonchntly. He pecked her asionally, yet Madelyn could


    hardly feel his desire.


    But she still endured it and just let him kiss her.


    However, she was inexperienced after all and couldn''t control her desire at will like Benjamin did. After


    a short while, she couldn''t bear it anymore. She wrapped her arms around his waist and begged in a


    low voice, "What''s wrong with you?"


    Benjamin tucked her dark-brown hair behind her ear, exposing her innocent, clean, and gentle face.


    Looking at her, he suddenly recalled the scene when Daniel grasped her hand tonight.


    He stroked her cheek softly and asked, "How did you and he start?"


    Madelyn realized why he acted so abnormally today.


    It turned out that he felt unhappy about her past with Daniel.


    It was true that she once loved Daniel and had been in love with him for four years. However, she didn''t


    have sex with Daniel.


    She raised her head to kiss him, her eyes getting red.


    Benjamin thought he wasn''t a man who would care about this. However, at this moment, he didn''t want


    to continue with this forey. He patted her shoulder and said in a husky voice, "Go take a shower and


    then go to bed."


    He urged Madelyn to go to bed early, but he himself lit a cigarette, leaned against the counter, and


    slowly smoked it. He had a good appearance and was extremely rich and powerful. He was perfect at


    any time.


    Madelyn looked at him quietly, feeling a bit hurt.


    She couldn''t erase her past. Moreover, without her past with Daniel, she wouldn''t have met Benjamin


    and lived together with him.


    She buckled up and walked over.


    Benjamin lowered his ck eyes to look at her.


    Madelyn boldly pulled the cigarette out of his mouth, pressed her lips against his, and murmured,


    "Benjamin, don''t be so indifferent to me. My body is not dirty."


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Benjamin''s eyes were instantly filled with eagerness.


    He suddenly put her on the bar counter, sped the back of her head, and lowered his head to kiss


    her.


    Unlike the nonchnt attitude that he had just now, he was now kissing her frenziedly. He allowed the


    mes of desire to grow wildly, not intending to restrain himself.


    Madelyn hugged him tightly and obediently.


    Being obedient was the only thing that she could use to pay back to him.


    However, much to Madelyn''s surprise, Benjamin didn''t finish thest step. Before losing control, he


    leaned forward and murmured into her ear, "Ms. Green, I''ll think about how to taste you after solving all


    the affairs."


    Madelyn''s face got extremely red.


    He was such a flirtatious and cheeky man!


    Benjamin''s mood improved. He teased her, "Why are you still hugging me? Do you want to go on?"


    Madelyn felt her face burning hot.


    ...


    The next morning...


    Benjamin left early in the morning.


    As Madelyn had just moved here, she felt a bit unustomed and failed to sleep in.


    She sat up and saw the hickeys on her body... Although Benjamin didn''t fuck her yesterday, he had


    tasted every inch of her body.


    Madelyn blushed at the thought of it, not to mention when she caught the two small boxes on the


    bedside table with the corner of her eye.


    She was dumbfounded.


    Then she recalled that when they carried her luggage upstairs, Benjamin didn''t take the two boxes of


    condoms upstairs. Could it be that he hade downstairs to take themter? Linking all these things,


    she effortlessly concluded that he must have seen her entangling with Daniel.


    No wonder he was very abnormalst night...

    After calming down, Madelyn called Cam and told her that she woulde to the hospital to visit her


    fatherter.


    Out of her expectation, Cam refused her in a firm tone, "I''ll take care of your father. You and


    Benjamin just fell in love, so it''s more urgent for you to nurture your rtionship."


    Madelyn was a bit dumbfounded.


    Just fell in love... To nurture their rtionship...


    Wasn''t her rtionship with Benjamin something forbidden? Madelyn wouldn''t overvalue herself to


    think that Benjamin helped her because he had fallen in love with her. There were few Cindere


    stories in reality.


    However, she didn''t want to sadden Cam, so she replied ambiguously.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Cam was very happy and ended the call after reminding Madelyn of something.


    After putting down her phone, Madelyn was lost in her thoughts for a long while. She didn''t even notice


    it when ire, the hourly housekeeper, showed up at the door.


    ire came here to ask Melody about what cousins she would like for lunch. But as soon as she came


    here, she noticed that Madelyn was wearing a men''s shirt with light bruises all over her exposed neck.


    Oh, Mr. rk is really a lustful man!


    ire was very happy. She said to Madelyn as if she had understood something and was teaching her


    something, "Men all love novelty and would lose control as you just fall in love, while women have to


    bear it. I''ll boil some nourishing soup for you this noon."


    Madelyn knew she must have misunderstood something.


    However, it was unnecessary to exin to her. After all, she and Benjamin would have sex sooner or


    Therefore, she said with a smile, "Thank you, ire."


    ire then left to continue with her work.


    Then Madelyn pulled up her shirt to check on her body, only to find bruises and hickeys all over her


    body. She didn''t dare to look at them anymore and took a deep breath. Her intuition told her that


    Benjamin was more lustful than ordinary men.


    Madelyn decided to take a shower first.


    When the water ran down her body, she felt much soberer. She needed to think about her next ns.


    ...


    After lunch, Benjamin called her and asked her to go to a store to fetch several bottles of wine.


    He had stored several boxes of high-end red wine in that store and he wanted Madelyn to fetch two


    bottles of them.


    Madelyn mumbled an "Okay".


    Her voice sounded obedient and soft.


    Standing nobly in his high-level office, Benjamin fiddled with the window blind and said with a chuckle,


    "Don''t you want to know what I did today?"


    Madelyn knew he had solved her father''s case, so she said something to appease him.


    Benjamin chuckled again, but he didn''t remark on it.


    Looking at the screen of her phone, Madelyn thought he was a bit inexplicable.


    Since Benjamin had stored the wine in that store, naturally, the clerks of the store should know him. Not


    wanting to embarrass him, Madelyn changed into a set of decent clothes and then checked on the


    address.


    She was surprised when she found it was not far away from their apartment.


    Madelyn decided to walk there as having a walk could help improve her digestion. She had been too


    tense recently.


    Madelyn sessfully fetched the wine and walked back with two bottles of wine.


    When she walked to the entrance of her apartment building, someone stopped her. "Madelyn."


    Madelyn was taken aback when she heard the familiar voice. She looked over following the voice, only


    to see Gabrie and Sophia.


    Madelyn had suffered a lot because of them before. She swallowed when seeing them and then asked


    in an extremely faint voice, "What''s the matter?"


    Gabrie was a very patient woman. She proposed with a smile, "There''s a caf¨¦ opposite here. Let''s


    talk there."


    Madelyn had no idea about what had happened today. She thought Gabrie was here to m a


    cheque before her and ask her to leave her son.


    She smiled and didn''t refuse it.


    The three of them took seats in the caf¨¦. Madelyn didn''t take the initiative to order food.


    Gabrie and Sophia had been ustomed to Madelyn''s sacrifice. But this time, Madelyn still refused


    to pay the bill after such a long while of silence. Therefore, they awkwardly ordered three cups of


    coffee.


    When drinking coffee, Gabrie took a nce at the two bottles of red wine beside Madelyn and said


    amiably, "This wine is expensive. It should cost 200,000 for each bottle."


    Madelyn suddenly looked up, only to meet Gabrie''s scrutinizing gaze.


    At that moment, she understood everything. All the Campbells had learned about her rtionship with


    Benjamin.

 Chapter 54 The Campbells Beg Madelyn for Mercy

    Chapter 54 The Campbells Beg Madelyn for Mercy


    Chapter 54 The Campbells Beg Madelyn for Mercy


    Madelyn didn''t intend to keep it a secret.


    She had fallen out with Campbells and didn''t have any rtionship with them anymore.


    She replied calmly, "I''m not clear about it. I fetched it for others."


    Sophia, Daniel''s younger sister, couldn''t hold back anymore. Sheshed out, "Madelyn, don''t be so


    shameless! I remember you loved my brother very much before. You two have just broken up, and yet


    shortly after that, you moved into the other man''s house. And that man is my brother''s future brother-in-


    Retaliate?


    Madelyn replied with a sneer, "I should feel happy as I survived Daniel. What capability do I have to


    retaliate against the Campbells?"


    Sophia wanted to scold her again, but Gabrie stopped her.


    She said ndly just as he did before, "Madelyn, probably you have no idea about this matter. Daniel''s


    was deliberately targeting him."


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    The next moment, she associated it with Benjamin''s abnormal behaviorst now and his words "I''ll


    think about how to taste you after solving all the affairs".


    She thought he was flirting with her, but it turned out he meant it.


    There was no doubt that a man of his words was very charming. Madelyn felt her body hot at the


    thought of it. At the same time, she took pleasure in the Campbells'' misfortune.


    Madelyn didn''t feel sorry for them.


    She looked down at her coffee and said ndly, "Then you should go to Benjamin or Eloise. Why did


    youe to me?"


    Gabrie replied with a faint smile, "Madelyn, I know you''re a smart girl and you should know why.


    Meanwhile, I also believed that you became Benjamin''s mistress because you had no choice, and


    deep in your heart, you still love my son Daniel. I promise you..."


    Madelyn didn''t want to hear the rest words.


    She felt so disgusted.


    Meanwhile, she was amused by their shamelessness. She said angrily, "Mrs. Campbell, you''ve thought


    too much. I have some advice for you. You should go to see a psychiatrist. If there isn''t something


    wrong with your mind, why would you think that I would still love a man who almost ruined my family?"


    She turned around and left after finishing the words.


    Sophia cursed behind her, "Madelyn, we''re showing respect to you, but don''t be so shameless. I don''t


    believe that you''ve stopped loving my brother. You should help him, shouldn''t you!"


    Standing there, Madelyn felt a sharp pain with every breath she took.


    Sophia''s words made sense.


    She once loved Daniel so deeply that she was willing to sacrifice anything for him. She was so silly


    before.


    This was the reason why Gabrie and Sophia still believed that she must do everything without


    She was a human being, but not a beast who didn''t have any emotions.


    Madelyn couldn''t hold back anymore and sshed her coffee on Sophia''s face.


    Sophia screamed furiously.


    Madelyn said coldly, "Ms. Campbell, you should learn from your mother about what attitude you should


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    have when you''re begging a person."


    Sophia had never been humiliated like this. She picked up her coffee, waiting to ssh back. But just


    as she had got her coffee, her wrist was grasped by a big hand.


    It was Daniel.


    Everyone around was watching them quietly.


    Daniel reprimanded his sister through gritted teeth, "Isn''t this enough?"


    It was the first time that Daniel was so ferocious to Sophia. Sophia felt aggrieved and began to shed


    tears, scolding, "Daniel, I did it for your sake. Look at her. She allies with the other man to target you.


    Why are you still helping her?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to stay here any longer. She turned around, intending to leave.


    Daniel stopped her and said calmly, "Madelyn, I don''t need you to put in good words for me."


    Madelyn didn''t reply.


    She walked out of the caf¨¦, straightening her back, as if she was leaving her past behind and that she


    wouldn''t reminisce about it anymore.


    Gabrie caught up with her. She was a very shrewd woman, so would she let Madelyn go?


    "Madelyn, why are you so heartless? At least you were once in love."


    Madelyn shivered all over in anger.


    Right at this moment, a warm, big hand held up her hand and took the two bottles of red wine from her.


    Madelyn looked up in confusion and saw Benjamin.


    It was only 5 p.m. Why was he back so early?

 Chapter 55 The Tension Between Love Rivals

    Chapter 55 The Tension Between Love Rivals


    Chapter 55 The Tension Between Love Rivals


    Madelyn looked a bit dull.


    Benjamin gently wrapped his arm around her shoulder and said naturally, "I asked you to go to the wine


    store, why did youe to this caf¨¦?"


    Madelyn''s mood was weirdly improved.


    She didn''t conceal this matter from him, so she exined in a soft tone, "I met some acquittances and


    chitchatted with them."


    Benjamin fixed his ck eyes on her and then looked at the "acquittances" behind her. Then he said


    ndly, "Oh, it''s you, Daniel."


    Compared with hisposure, Daniel looked tenser.


    He was not a fool and he could perceive that Benjamin didn''t like him. It was not only because of Eloise


    but also partly because of Madelyn.


    When their eyes met, the air seemed to be sparkling.


    Madelyn gently wrapped her arm around Benjamin''s and said in a low voice, "Let''s go back."


    Benjamin retreated his gaze and nodded.


    However, right at this moment, Gabrie walked out of the caf¨¦ and greeted him enthusiastically,


    "Benjamin, turns out it''s you."


    She acted as if she only learned that Madelyn was in love with him and pretended to be very shocked


    as she asked, "Madelyn, why are you so intimate with Benjamin? Weren''t you Daniel''s..."


    She suddenly paused and swallowed the rest words.


    This trick had a superexcellent effect. If it was an ordinary man, probably he would vent his anger on


    Madelyn. But who is Benjamin? How would he be fooled by a scheming middle-aged woman?


    He tossed hisptop bag to Madelyn and took out a package of cigarettes from his pocket.


    When lighting the cigarette, he asked nonchntly, "Did Daniel have a girlfriend before? But I heard


    from Eloise that she was Danie''s first love..."


    Gabrie was shocked.


    She looked at her son awkwardly and then found an excuse, "I meant Madelyn''s father was once an


    ountant in the Campbell Group."


    "Really?" Benjamin slowly breathed out a ring of smoke and tapped the ash of his cigarette, saying, "I


    misunderstood that Daniel was a scumbag who was once Madelyn''s boyfriend and dumped herter."


    Gabrie almost failed to remain her calmness.


    Right at this moment, Daniel said in a nd voice, "Brother-inw, you''ve thought too much. I and Ms.


    Green don''t have a past, nor will we have a future."


    Benjamin smiled.


    He used his hand which was sping the cigarette to stroke Madelyn''s hair and said, "If this is the


    case, I''ll rest assured."


    Madelyn thought Benjamin was such a mischievous man, but after all, he was helping her.


    She looked up at him.


    Benjamin had a good appearance and was exuding a mature and confident aura. Madelyn''s eyes were


    gradually filled with tenderness as she looked at him.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Daniel had been in love with her for four years, so he was very clear about what her gaze meant.


    Madelyn likes Benjamin!


    Daniel stood upright and said to Gabrie in an extremely faint voice, "Let''s go."


    Gabrie pulled Sophia out of the caf¨¦ with aplicated expression. Sophia was still reluctant and


    began to throw tantrums after getting into the car, "Mom, why didn''t you expose Madelyn''s true color?


    Isn''t Benjamin our rtive? Of course, he will side with us!"


    Gabrie required her to shut up.


    She said with a sneer, "Do you think that we''re equal since we''re rtives? Have you seen his


    attitude? If he doesn''t agree to it, your brother won''t be able to marry Eloise."


    Sophia was taken aback.


    Gabrie ignored her and looked at her son, "Daniel, you should be clear about how important this


    marriage is. You can flirt with any woman behind Eloise''s back, but you can''t touch Madelyn again."


    Sitting in the driver''s seat, Daniel remained silent.


    Gabrie knew he was a man with strong self-esteem, so she didn''t continue with this topic. She


    believed that Daniel knew what to do.


    Moreover, he had been in love with Madelyn for four years, yet he didn''t like her too much. It was just


    that he was a bit ufortable about it now. However, he would gradually forget her after getting


    married. As for Madelyn and Benjamin... They wouldn''t get married.

    Chapter 56 Is He Impotent


    Madelyn followed Benjamin back to their apartment.


    After pondering for a long while, she finally asked, "Did... Did you target the Campbell Group?"


    Benjamin paused in his movements. Then he asked casually, "Do you want to put in good words for


    Daniel?"


    "Nah."


    Madelyn fiddled with the two bottles of red wine awkwardly.


    After staring at her for a while, Benjamin sat down on the couch and turned on the TV to watch the


    financial news. After a long while, he found Madelyn was still standing on the spot, so he asked ndly,


    "Are you going to prepare the dinner?"


    Madelyn nodded.


    When she changed into pajamas, she couldn''t help but think to herself, "Maybe Benjamin doesn''t have


    any sexual needs. My current function is to cook, do cleanings, and run some errands for him. I and


    ire are taking turns to serve him.''


    She hadn''t expected that Benjamin was such an abstinent man.


    When Madelyn was preparing dinner, Benjamin was also busy with his work. He had answered several


    calls. When he put down his phone and prepared to take a shower, he noticed that the screen of


    Madelyn''s phone, which was put on the tea table, lit up.


    Benjamin nced in the direction of the kitchen and causally picked up Madelyn''s phone.


    He knew Madelyn''s screen-lock password, so he unlocked her phone effortlessly and saw the two


    messages sent by Daniel.


    [Daniel] Turns out your love is so worthless that you cease to love me so soon.


    Benjamin sneered and thought to himself, ''Such a love-struck man.''


    He replied to the message expressionlessly.


    [Madelyn] Since you know it''s worthless, just toss it into the trash can!


    He directly deleted the messages right after that and cklisted Daniel.


    On Daniel''s side, he was lost for words when he saw the message.


    Madelyn prepared four dishes and a soup, which all had appetizing looks and fragrances. Among them,


    the spicy crab was her specialty. Those who had tasted it all said it was delicious.


    When the dinner was ready, she called Benjamin, yet thetter was still immersed in the financial news


    and he only stood upzily as Madelyn called him again. However, his face looked cold.


    Madelyn guessed that he was in a bad mood, so she didn''t dare to provoke him.


    After eating for a while, Benjamin suddenlyined, "None of the dishes is my favorite."


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    She subconsciously exined, "ire told me roughly about your preferences. It shouldn''t be."


    Benjamin looked at her eagerly and said, "Why didn''t you directly ask me about my preferences?"


    Madelyn was quite speechless.


    Before, she thought living with him meant that her work was to lie on the bed and appease him to his


    heart''s content. Out of her expectation, he was very picky about her in life! She couldn''t help


    associating it with the scenes where he suddenly stopped at the peak of their desires... Could it be that


    he was impotent yet he felt shy to talk about it, so he could only torture her in other aspects?


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Madelyn felt a bit sorry for him.


    Mr. Benjamin rk, who was always a noble, decent man, was actually imperfect.


    Madelyn said patiently, "I''ll pay attention to this next time."


    Benjamin snorted lightly and began to pick on the food again. Anyway, he suddenly asked after eating


    for another while, "You cooked for Daniel before, right? Are these dishes his favorite?"


    Madelyn finally understood that Benjamin was getting jealous because of Daniel.


    These dishes were his favorites!


    Madelyn''s eyes got red.


    However, she was aware that she couldn''t afford to offend him based on her identity. Therefore, she


    could also say patiently, "I can''t change the fact that I was once his girlfriend, but for me, those were all


    the past. I won''t have him in my mind anymore. We have to live together for a period. But if you get


    picky about me every day because of this..."


    She couldn''t continue as she felt very aggrieved.


    Benjamin didn''t say anything. He sat down on the sofa and lit a cigarette.


    Madelyn began to clear the table. She poured the left food into a garbage bag, changed into slippers,


    and prepared to go downstairs.


    "Where are you going?" Benjamin thought she was going to throw the left food into the garbage can.


    Madelyn replied in a nasal sound, "Go downstairs to feed the dogs. Some homeless dogs may like the


    dishes I cooked."


    Benjamin was a bit dumbfounded, and then he chuckled.


    She was satirizing him secretly!


    However, right at this moment, he wasn''t angry at all. Instead, he thought Madelyn who was showing


    this aspect to him was a bit cute.

    Chapter 57 Men''s Obscure Thoughts


    Madelyn also had her tempers.


    As she had argued with Benjamin, she didn''t talk to her after going back today.


    She took a shower to wash off the faint smell of cigarettes on her body and then leaned against the


    wash basin while doing skin care.


    Benjamin was very generous to her. She had only moved into his apartment for two days, yet he had


    asked his men to send several sets of high-end skincare here. Madelyn directly unpacked them and


    used them without asking for his permission. She thought perhaps these were men''s obscure thoughts.


    After all, every man liked women''s tender, fragrant, and fair skin.


    After applying the lotion to her upper body, she bent down to apply it to her calves. She had a good


    shape and such a simple movement was also extremely deductive.


    At least Benjamin was a bit turned on.


    He walked over and hugged her from the back. Madelyn was a bit startled, but she didn''t push him


    away and let him do anything he wanted.


    After a long while, he pressed his lips against her ear and asked eagerly, "Are you on your period?"


    Madelyn guessed that he wasn''t angry anymore and was offering her an out, so she epted it and


    N?vel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.


    replied, "It came this evening."


    Benjamin stopped touching her, but his body was still pressed against his back. He seemed to be in a


    good mood as he asked casually, "What do you want to do when this case is over? You won''t teach


    Florence only, right?


    Madelyn''s mind was a mess. She replied, "I want to teach in the other ce when this matter is over."


    Benjamin softly bit her ear.


    "I want to send you to Monatiz for further studyter, is that all right?"


    Madelyn sobered up a bit and immediately understood what he meant.


    Their rtionship wouldn''tst for long. When he got bored of herter, he would send her abroad. On


    the one hand, it was thepensation for her; on the other hand, she wanted her to stay away from


    Daniel so that she wouldn''t affect Eloise''s marriage.


    Madelyn didn''t ask him if he would go abroad to see her after that.


    She knew he wouldn''t.


    When he sent her abroad, it meant their rtionship woulde to an end.


    Madelyn was willing toply with it if this was his rule. She wasn''t a greedy woman.


    Probably because Madelyn was very obedient, Benjamin was in a good mood. Pinching her waist, he


    began to tell her about a steamy affair that he heard of today. Madelyn blushed and her legs got weak.


    She looked so lovely and soft now.


    Benjamin turned her body around, pressed her down on the wash basin, and kissed her crazily. Unlike


    the kisses they had at usual times, this kiss was somehow erotic.


    Madelyn thought he must be a beast.


    She didn''t doubt that Benjamin was impotent anymore. He had so much energy in sex!


    When they were all lost, Madelyn''s phone rang.


    It was Vivian calling.


    She pushed Benjamin and stuttered, "I... I need to answer the call."


    Benjamin reached out to fetch her phone, gave it to her, and turned on the speaker. Madelyn felt a bit


    speechless. She thought sometimes Benjamin was very childish. Based on their rtionship, it seemed


    unnecessary for him to check on her social connections.


    She didn''t avoid him and directly talked to Vivian.


    "Hello."


    Vivian, who was at the other end of the line, asked with a frown, "Madelyn, what''s wrong with your


    voice?"


    "What? It''s fine."


    Vivian joked with her, "If it isn''t that I know you''re single, I would think that you''re making out with a


    man."


    Madelyn''s face turned so red and she scolded her in a low voice.


    Benjamin leaned toward her ear and whispered with a chuckle, "She''s telling the truth."


    Fearing that Vivian would hear their flirting talk, Madelyn ran into the main bedroom while covering her


    bathrobe and said, "Vivian, it happens that I would to talk to you about a matter. Shall we make an


    appointment and meet tomorrow?"


    Because of Benjamin''s intervention, the court canceled the seal-up of the Green family''s fortunes.


    Madelyn wanted to return the money to Vivian.


    Vivian had also heard that Samuel was bailed out and she was happy for Madelyn.


    After a few chitchats, Vivian came straight to the point, "I want to tell you two pieces of news. Do you


    know that someone is targeting Daniel? I heard from my husband that Daniel was deeply troubled. If he


    can''t solve this matter properly, he may be put in jail. He deserves it! I feel so excited at the thought of


    it!"


    Madelyn was afraid that Benjamin would feel unhappy as Vivian had mentioned Daniel.


    She tilted her head to look at him.

 Chapter 58 Benjamin, I Want to Make You Happy

    Benjamin wasn''t angry at all.


    He chuckled lightly and then walked into the cloakroom to fetch his clothes for a shower.


    Madelyn heaved a sigh of relief and continued to chat with Vivian.


    She didn''t want to talk about Benjamin, so she asked, "What''s the other news?"


    Vivial replied after a while of silence, "Our school wants to arrange a reunion party for alumni. I heard


    that it was Elizabeth who proposed this. This bitch had some selfish intentions and proposed to invite


    alumni of Geliville University."


    Geliville University?


    Daniel graduated from Geliville University, so undoubtedly, Elizabeth would invite him.


    Madelyn wanted to refuse it when she learned this.


    Vivian was also angry. Sheshed out, "This bitch won''t get enough of it. She likes to be a


    homewrecker and plots openly or secretly, but I''m fine with it. But why does she insist on forcing others


    to bless her? As far as I''m concerned, she''s targeting you. She''s telling many people that you don''t


    dare to attend the party because you''ve been dumped and you''re unemployed now."


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    For this kind of people, Madelyn just wanted to ignore them.


    She told Vivian that she would consider it and then ended the call. When she looked up, she saw


    Benjamin standing at the door of the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe. His good figure was pleasant to


    the eyes.


    Madelyn couldn''t move her gaze away.


    Benjamin walked toward her while drying his hair with a towel, leaned forward, and said with a chuckle,


    "Reunion party for alumni? That''s an event for extramarital affairs."


    Madelyn softly bit her bottom lip and retorted, "I''m unmarried."


    "But now you''re mine." Benjamin pressed his prominent nose against hers and said in a low, seductive


    tone.


    Madelyn suddenly thought she was wasting time when she was in love with the other man.


    It wouldn''t be a loss for her to have an affair with Benjamin.


    She wrapped her arms around his neck and deliberately asked in a soft voice, "Shall I report to you in


    advance?"


    Benjamin gave her a reward as a reply.


    They rolled on the bed for a long while. In the end, Madelyn set her chin on his shoulder and said softly,


    "Indeed, I haven''t decided on it yet. But I''ve decided on one thing."


    "What''s that?"


    Madelyn cupped his handsome face and said with her breaths light, "Benjamin, at this moment, I just


    want to make you happy."


    Benjamin''s ck eyes turned unfathomable.


    Madelyn blushed, leaned forward, andnded her lips on his...


    ...


    The next day, Madelyn went to the hospital.


    She felt relieved when finding that Samuel looked much better. Then she talked with Cam about


    moving back home.


    After that, Cam suddenly mentioned Benjamin.


    Cam had a good impression of him and especially reminded Madelyn, "Get alone with Benjamin.


    Maybe you two will have a good result."


    Madelyn gave her a light smile.


    Benjamin had a strong family background and a good personality, so how would she be able to make


    him hers only? Moreover, he said he only wanted a rtionship without burden, then she would give


    him one. As for the future, she didn''t dare to think about it.


    She didn''t talk for too long with Cam and left the hospital soon.


    Just as she walked to the entrance of the hospital, a white BMW stopped before her.


    When the window was wound down, she saw Vivian.


    Vivian said with a serious expression, "Get in the car first. I have something to tell you."


    Madelyn got into the car. She asked while fastening the safety belt, "What''s wrong? Did you argue with


    your husband?"


    Vivian felt so fretful that she wanted to smoke cigarettes. However, as she wanted to keep herdy


    image before Madelyn, she held back the urge.


    She took Madelyn to a caf¨¦.


    Madelyn pushed a bank card to her. In the card was the money that she owed Vivian. Except for that,


    Madelyn prepared a gift for her.


    Vivian was not in the mood to talk about this. She took out her phone and showed it to Madelyn.


    "Elizabeth is determined to seek trouble for you. See how many rumors she has spread in the forum of


    our university."


    Madelyn hurriedly checked on the phone.


    Vivian was telling the truth as she saw many pieces of negative news about her.


    Being an old man''s mistress, flirting with a rich man, having an ambiguous rtionship with an


    unknown man... Anyway, she described Madelyn as an immortal woman.


    Vivian breathed out and said, "Madelyn, you''re a teacher for children. Elizabeth is ndering you. Who


    would dare to hire you to teach their children after this? What those noble women fear the most is


    that... someone would seduce their husbands. You won''t be able to solve this unless you have a


    husband who''s more outstanding than theirs."

    Chapter 59 Madelyn Really Has an Affair with Benjamin


    Chapter 59 Madelyn Really Has an Affair with Benjamin


    Looking at the negative news, Madelyn''s face turned ghostly pale.


    Vivian felt distressed for her.


    She patted the back of her hand softly andforted her in a low voice, "I''m trying to let those people


    delete the posts."


    "Thank you, Vivian."


    Even so, they all knew how horrifying it would be to be ndered. The rumors had spread out, and it


    would be very difficult for Madelyn to change others'' impressions of her.


    Stirring her coffee, Madelyn said in a choking voice, "Vivian, I''ve put much effort into those kids over


    the years."


    Her four-year rtionship with Daniel had ruined her career.


    And now her reputation was also ruined.


    Madelyn wanted to buy drinks so that she could indulge herself in alcohol. She wouldn''t be troubled by


    these matters if she got drunk.


    "You''ve asked the right person." Vivian was good at nothing but entertainment.


    She took Madelyn to a 7/24 underground bar.


    It was called Memory of 7 Seconds. One would tell it was a bar when seeing this name.


    As expected, as soon as they walked into the bar, they were greeted with thunderous rock music. Boys


    and girls inside didn''t wear much and danced along with the music vigorously and freely, exuding the


    hormones of youth. Thebination of their sweat and perfumes made the best aphrodisiac smell


    which drilled into everyone''s nostrils.


    "How does it feel? It''s fantastic, right?"


    Vivian walked to the booth she always ordered, took out a long women''s cigarette, lit it up, and smoked


    seductively.


    Madelyn had never smoked and Vivian didn''t allow her to try either.


    Vivian ordered a bottle of wine, poured two sses of wine, and handed one to Madelyn.


    "Many people are watching you, Madelyn. Do you know that you''re like a little rabbit identally


    Madelyn smiled bitterly. How would she have the mood to think about this?


    She picked up the ss and finished the wine.


    Vivian was taken aback by her action. She poured another ss of wine for her and said, "Don''t drink


    too much. If you''re drunk, I can''t exin to your mom. She''s very strict with you."


    Madelyn was in a trance.


    She finally remembered that she was now living with Benjamin and that she needed to prepare dinner


    for him... After finishing half a bottle of wine, she became bolder and more vengeful.


    He ate little when she cooked for himst night!


    She didn''t want to cook for him anymore!


    Anyway, he didn''t mean to let her be a cook.


    Madelyn had drunk half bottle of wine and was half drunk. Resting her head on the table, she


    murmured, "Vivian, I can''t ept those things!"


    In the past, she was fooled around by Daniel. And now, Elizabeth was ndering her.


    Why should she be at their hands?


    "I want to sue Elizabeth."


    Vivian didn''t dare to drink much because she was afraid that she wouldn''t be able to carry Madelyn


    backter. Hearing Madelyn''s words, she coaxed her with distress, "Okay. We''ll sue her."


    Madelyn was half drunk, but she still managed to open the forum of her university. She said that she


    must screen-record the evidence.


    Vivian was amused. "You''re so drunk, but you still have the capability to fuss around."


    Madelyn fell asleep drunkenly after finishing this.


    Vivian was shocked.


    She patted Madelyn''s cheek and called, "Madelyn?"


    In a trance, Madelyn seemed to hear someone calling her name and it sounded like the voice of the


    man in her dream. With her eyes closed, she bit her red lit and said in a sweet voice, "Benjamin, I''m on


    my period. I can''t serve you now."


    Vivian stiffened as if she was stuck by lightning.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Gosh! What had she heard?


    Benjamin... Period... Server... Those two sentences contained so much information!


    Vivian felt very shocked. She shook Madelyn rudely. "Hey... Wake up... What''s your rtionship with


    Benjamin?"


    Madelyn opened her eyes to a clit. Her eyes looked watery and seductive.


    "You want to know that?"


    "Of course."


    Madelyn rested her ivory, wless face on her hand and said softly, "He''s good-looking and hot. And


    he''s good at... Vivian, I don''t think I''ve lost anything."


    Vivian wanted to curse.


    Right at this moment, Madelyn''s phone rang. Vivian cursed at Benjamin while rummaging for Madelyn''s


    phone.


    When she nced at the caller ID, she found it was Benjamin calling.


    Vivian was dumbfounded and got nervous... It turned out that Madelyn really had an affair with


    Benjamin!

    Vivian had many thoughts in her mind.


    She buckled up to answer the call.


    Benjamin''s voice sounded charming and husky. "Why aren''t you home? Where are you?"


    Vivian nced at Madelyn.


    Fuck, seemed like they''d had sex.


    No wonder the case of Madelyn''s father was suddenly solved and Daniel was suddenly trapped in


    various problems. It turned out that Benjamin was the person behind all this.


    The demon in the legal circle getting angry because of a woman... This was so exciting!


    Vivian decided to make use of him. She deliberately said in a soft tone, "Mr. rk, I''m Vivian White...


    Hmm... I was Madelyn''s ssmate at university and we have met before... Yep... She''s with me now.


    She''s so sad that she kicked a fuss while crying and drunk a lot."


    Benjamin had only gotten home. Right at this moment, he was standing before the floor-to-ceiling


    window and gently pulled down his necktie with his slender fingers.


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    His movements were simple yet elegant.


    Hearing Vivian''s words, he asked with a frown, "Drunk? What''s wrong with her?"


    Vivian heaved a soft sigh and began to make a story.


    "Don''t you know it, Mr. rk? Madelyn loves you so much and falls out with Daniel. Daniel''s mistress,


    who happens to be our ssmate and Madelyn''s colleague, tries all means to nder Madelyn.


    Madelyn likes kids so much and she''s very sad."


    The story was mixed with truths and lies. In the end, Vivian was a bit choking.


    Madelyn''s past with Daniel had hurt her a lot.


    Benjamin was silent for a long while and Vivian finally realized that she had a slip of the tongue. She


    had identally exposed Daniel''s scandal. Would Madelyn be implicated?


    As she was worried about Madelyn, Benjamin broke the silence. "Where are you?"


    Vivian didn''t dare to raise any questions and hurriedly told him the address.


    Vivian had aplicated expression after ending the call. She once helped Madelyn to approach


    Benjamin, but she hadn''t expected that Madelyn would make it. After all, Benjamin was an


    unapproachable legend in Gredax.


    Several days ago, a movie queen apanied a rich to a party and thought she would get the chance


    to marry into a wealthy family. However, the reality was that she couldn''t even get Benjamin''s name


    card.


    She became aughingstock of the entertainment circle.


    Vivian gently pinched Madelyn''s cheek and smiled with satisfaction. "Good job, Madelyn."


    Those who refused to make use of avable resources were all fools.


    Vivian immediately called the person in charge of contacting alumni for the party.


    "I and Madelyn will take part in the party next week."


    "Yep. Madelyn will also go there."


    "Why not? She''s innocent. And she doesn''t need to prove herself."


    ...


    After that, Vivian delightedly put her phone back into her back. She sneered. Many people are waiting


    for the chance ofughing at Madelyn, but they would just let the scandals spread for several days.


    Those people must be very shocked when they learned about the truth.


    As Vivian was immersed incency, Benjamin arrived at the bar.


    He was still wearing a suit.


    A light-gray shirt and a pair of ck suit pants.


    The muscles on his chest were bulging and his waist was slender.


    And his legs were very long. Vivian marveled at Madelyn''s good luck.


    Probably because of Benjamin''s strong aura, it seemed like the sound of music was lower and


    everyone was staring at him.


    Benjamin had been used to being stared at by others since childing, so he didn''t care about their gazes


    at all.


    He found Vivian and Madelyn.


    Vivian was still sober while Madelyn had fallen asleep with her head resting on the table.


    The bar was filled with thunderous music and the mixed smell of sweat and hormones, but Madelyn''s


    ivory face seemed to be glistening against the dark. The mint green dress she was wearing made her


    look purer and more innocent.


    Benjamin nodded at Vivian and then scooped to carry up Madelyn.


    Madelyn was awakened.


    She opened her eyes in a trance and looked as panicked as a startled rabbit.


    "Now you''re afraid?" Benjamin asked angrily.

 Chapter 61 Made for Each Other

    Chapter 61 Made for Each Other


    Chapter 61 Made for Each Other


    Madelyn became very bold under the influence of alcohol. Instead of being afraid, she wrapped her


    arms around his neck and whispered, "I''m not in the mood for cooking."


    Vivian, who was watching while standing beside, felt a surge of excitement.


    The sight of Mr. rk hugging Madelyn made her blush.


    Vivian wanted to stay a little longer, but Benjamin didn¡¯t like being watched. He took Madelyn in his


    arms and put her on the seat of his golden Bentley Continental car parked at the entrance.


    Fortunately, Madelyn didn¡¯t make a scene after getting drunk and sat in the car quietly.


    After closing the car door, Benjamin turned to Vivian and asked as a gesture of courtesy, "Do you need


    a ride home?"


    Vivian didn¡¯t dare to bother him and quickly waved her hand, saying, "No, don''t worry about me. Just


    take care of Madelyn!"


    Benjamin had heard of Vivian''s reputation-the woman was a drinker and party-goer. He hadn''t


    expected her to get along so well with someone like Madelyn.


    With a slight nod, Benjamin walked to the other side, opened the door, and got in the car.


    The luxurious golden car drove away slowly...


    Vivian said admiringly, "They are really made for each other!"


    Suddenly, she pped herself... It wasn''t a dream! It was real! Her dear Madelyn had found herself an


    extraordinary man!


    ...


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    As Benjamin drove away, he took a nce at the woman beside him after he stopped at the red traffic.


    She was very quiet even when she was drunk.


    She didn¡¯t smell of alcohol; instead, she looked more attractive when she was buzzed.


    Her cheeks were rosy, and her eyes were gleaming.


    When the car came to a stop, Madelyn asked in a daze, "Am I home?"


    She reached out to open the car door, but she was grabbed by a strong arm.


    Madelyn paused.


    She looked up into his eyes.


    Benjamin suddenly felt the urge to light a cigarette, but he restrained himself, considering that Madelyn


    was in the car. He quietly drove them back to the apartment.


    Benjamin seemed very calm, and his eyes were captivating. If she hadn¡¯t known how firmly he was


    holding her hand,


    she couldn¡¯t see how dominant he was at that moment.


    "Benjamin..." Madelyn muttered his name.


    There was a sound of clicking in the car, and it turned out that he locked the doors.


    Benjamin turned to look at Madelyn, and said gently, "Sit on me."


    What?


    Madelyn blushed and couldn¡¯t think straight anymore. She couldn''t imagine that he would ask her to do


    this...


    Benjamin didn''t rush her; instead, he looked her up and down.


    Her dress was knee-high and made of silk.


    It felt very soft and fit her well...Her legs beneath the dress looked fair and slender.


    Benjamin thought he didn''t have a sexual preference, but he knew deep down that he found Madelyn''s


    legs so attractive that every time she slept beside him, he enjoyed stroking her legs.


    When he was alone with her just then, the faint smell of booze also made him feel slightly intoxicated.


    Now, he really wanted to kiss her.


    Madelyn stared at his good-looking face which was just inches away. She unbuckled her seat belt,


    crawled over, and sat on hisp as if he had put a spell on her...She didn¡¯t know how to please him and


    just moaned while putting her arms around his neck.


    Benjamin looked down at her and asked softly, "Aren¡¯t you supposed to please me?"


    Madelyn''s mind was nk.


    She found herself attracted to his handsome face. She tried to kiss him, but she was not good at


    kissing.


    Benjamin waited patiently for a while, but he could resist no longer. He unfastened the seat belt and


    They started making out in the car...


    ...


    When Madelyn woke up, it was already 12 o¡¯clock at night.


    Sitting up in bed, she scratched her head. Gradually she remembered what happened at the bar and


    the passionate kiss in the car.


    "Drinking always gets me into trouble."


    Just as she was about to send a message to Vivian, Benjamin entered the master bedroom.


    Leaning against the door, he said slowly, "You didn''t prepare dinner."


    Madelyn hastily got out of bed and replied, "What would you like to eat? I''ll make it for you now."


    Just as she walked to the door, Benjamin stopped her...

    Chapter 62 We Are in Love


    Chapter 62 We Are in Love


    Madelyn thought he would be unhappy.


    To her surprise, Benjamin pulled her closer and whispered in her ear, "I''ve already had dinner."


    Madelyn blushed. He really was shameless!


    Benjamin was not in a bad mood. He walked ahead to the dining room and said, "It''s time to have


    dinner!"


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Madelyn went to wash her face first.


    In the restroom, she turned on the tap and sshed cold water on her face...trying to calm herself


    down.


    She needed to deal with Elizabeth as soon as possible.


    Moreover, she didn''t n to tell Benjamin about this. She had already caused him too much trouble.


    She knew what their rtionship was like; she could just rely on him whenever she faced difficulties.


    Mr. rk''s time was very precious!


    After sorting out her feelings, Madelyn walked out of the room. To her surprise, she saw a table full of


    dishes in the dining room, far more sumptuous than what she used to cook.


    Benjamin simply said, "I had the chef from the rks'' mansion send these over here."


    After giving it some thought, he added, "If you don''t like cooking, just leave it to ire!"


    Madelyn quickly responded, "Don''t bother, I''ll do the cooking." She knew Benjamin valued his privacy,


    and having iree over every evening would surely disturb his work. She couldn''t let him sacrifice


    for her.


    Benjamin didn''t insist and quietly had his dinner.


    Madelyn thought she was supposed to serve him, so she scooped a bowl of soup for him and ced it


    in front of him.


    Benjamin looked up at her.


    Madelyn whispered, "It looks delicious."


    Benjamin didn''t immediately drink the soup. Instead, he said meaningfully, "If you can also take the


    initiative when we kiss, I would be very happy."


    She felt there was chemistry between them, and both of them thought of the kiss in the car.


    It was so much more than just a kiss.


    Madelyn''s face turned red. Why was he talking about this when they had dinner?


    After dinner, Madelyn washed the dishes and then watched the video on her phone.


    She was clear-headed now and realized it was nearly impossible to sue Elizabeth. She was very


    cautious and used many interrogative words in her statements so that she wouldn''t be found guilty.


    How despicable!


    Madelyn''splexion turned pale, and she didn''t want to ept that.


    Benjamin took over her phone with his slender hand, quickly browsed the video, and said, "It''s indeed


    difficult to press charges against her."


    Madelyn was shocked and instinctively asked, "Have you known everything?"


    Benjamin gave the phone back to her and sat beside her, asking her in return, "Do you mean finding


    out that you''re being targeted, or finding out that Daniel has cheated on you?"


    Madelyn thought he was so indifferent!


    She had met Eloise and could tell that they were close to each other. Didn''t Benjamin care about


    Daniel''s affairs at all?


    Benjamin chuckled.


    He gently pinched Madelyn''s chin, while he sounded dangerous and devilish as he said to her, "Have


    you ever seen someone care about a toy? As long as the toy knows who its owner is and behaves...


    what does it matter? Eventually, the toy will be discarded."


    Madelyn was astonished.


    She stared at him nkly and didn''t know how to react.


    Benjamin decided to exin in detail.


    "Eloise has attempted suicide before, which means it''s impossible to make her break up with him now!


    Since separating them is not an option, there is only one way left, that is, just letting her enjoy their


    rtionship. She will get bored when it wears off. So, it doesn''t matter whether Daniel is upright or a


    good person. All I care about is that Eloise is happy with him now."


    Madelyn had mixed feelings.


    Although he was talking about Daniel, she was also in a simr situation. Benjamin was good to her


    only for one reason.


    He just wanted to make himself happy!


    She fell into a prolonged silence. How could Benjamin, who was so smart, not know what she was


    thinking about?


    He tenderly caressed her face and said softly, "We are different! We are in a rtionship, or, to be more


    urate, we are in love... Madelyn, don''t you find me attractive or don''t you desire my body?"


    Madelyn closed her eyes.


    Yes! She was really into him!

 Chapter 63 Am I Not Serious?

    Chapter 63 Am I Not Serious?


    Chapter 63 Am I Not Serious?


    Madelyn knew she had feelings for him.


    Perhaps she liked him because he had helped her out, or because she was Benjamin''s handsome


    appearance. Regardless of the reasons, she liked him.


    Moreover, she wanted him to be happy when they were together, didn''t she?


    Yet, it made no sense that she was feeling down now!


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and mumbled, "I like you!"


    Benjamin gently touched her lips with his slender fingers, like he was hitting on her.


    Madelyn''s face flushed, and her heart was racing.


    However, she didn''t forget what she had to do. With her arms around his neck, she asked, "Do I have


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    to let Elizabeth get away with framing me?"


    "Are you concerned about others'' opinions?"


    Madelyn, trying to please him, waited until he was in a good mood and continued, "I don''t want the


    children I have taught to be disappointed in me and think Ms. Green is a indecent person."


    Benjamin buried his face in her neck and gave a lowugh.


    "Now that Ms. Green is lying under me, is that indecent?"


    Madelyn was speechless.


    Although they had slept in the same bed a few times, they had never really had sex. How could she


    bear to hear such a vulgar joke?


    She was so embarrassed that she pushed him away and ran into the bathroom of the master bedroom.


    Benjamin seemed particrly high-spirited tonight and quickly followed her.


    After Madelyn washed her face and finished her skincare routine, he hugged her from behind, rested


    his chin on her shoulder, and asked, "Are you mad at me?"


    "No."


    "How dare I be mad at you?"


    Benjamin held her chin gently, turned her face to him , and kissed her lips. After kissing for a while, he


    made her turn around and held her in his arms.


    Madelyn didn''t dare to make a move.


    Benjamin stared at her and said softly, "You don''t have to file awsuit. Leave it to me. On that day you


    just need to attend the ss reunion."


    Madelyn hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you going with me?"


    "Is it embarrassing that I''m going with you?"


    "Or do you think it''s better to be with someone much older than you?"


    Madelyn exined patiently, "That''s not what I meant. I just don''t understand why you do not keep our


    rtionship from others!"


    Benjamin didn''t care about it at all and replied, "We''re both single. There''s nothing to hide about our


    rtionship."


    Madelyn said nothing.


    Still feeling a bit dizzy, she wrapped her arms around his waist and enjoyed his embrace.


    She looked sleepy.


    Benjamin put her to the bed directly. Madelyn pulled the covers over herself and slept on her side...As


    she was about to drift into dreams, she felt Benjamin''s cool body when he finished taking a shower and


    joined her in bed.


    He liked her body, so he couldn''t resist touching her.


    Madelyn was waked up by him, but she was too tired to respond to his touch.


    So, she pretended to be asleep.


    From her rapid breaths, Benjamin knew that she was awake. He didn''t force her and instead leaned


    against her shoulder, asking in a low voice, "How many days does your period usuallyst?"


    Madelyn''s face was burning.


    She hesitated for quite a while and murmured, "Five days."


    Benjamin withdrew his hand, turned over andy on his back...He decided to let her have a good rest.


    ...


    In the early morning, Madelyn helped him with his tie.


    Her pretty face was glowing in the morning light.


    Benjamin took her hand and said, "You''ll be attending the ss reunion, right? You can go shopping


    and buy some new clothes when you have time."


    Madelyn had been living on a tight budgettely.


    So she said to Benjamin frankly, "That will cost a lot of money."


    Benjamin smiled.


    Born with a silver spoon, he found her response amusing because money was never a concern for him.


    He pinched her cheek and then put on his luxurious watch, saying, "Buying clothes won''t cost much.


    You sound like a doting wife reporting to her white-cor husband...Well, I need to buy some new shirts


    as the season changes. Pick out and buy some for me when you are shopping."


    Madelyn knew it was just an excuse; he already had over a hundred shirts in his cloakroom.


    But women always enjoyed shopping for clothes.


    She thanked him.


    Benjamin leaned in, kissed her, and said, "Don''t be so formal with me, Ms. Green."

 Chapter 64 He Cant Stop Thinking about Madelyn

    Chapter 64 He Can''t Stop Thinking about Madelyn


    Chapter 64 He Can''t Stop Thinking about Madelyn


    Madelyn wanted to please him.


    So she wrapped her arms around his neck and tenderly called him, "Daddy."


    At first, Benjamin was stunned.


    But then he felt like he was walking on air.


    His feeling of overjoysted after he got to thew firm, and even Paisley noticed that Mr. rk was in


    a good mood, and he looked more radiant than ever.


    At ten o''clock in the morning, Paisley knocked on the door and entered his office.


    With a smile, she said, "Mr. rk, the Campbell Group''s legal advisor would like to meet with you. I


    have checked your schedule and at four o''clock this afternoon..."


    "Just tell them I''m busy!" Benjamin said tly, "The authorities have already pressed charges against


    the Campbell Group for financial crimes. They are on their own now."


    Paisley was a little surprised.


    Although Mr. Campbell was his brother-inw, Mr. rk still chose to stand by.


    With a professional smile, Paisley replied, "I got it, Mr. rk."


    She returned to her office and informed the Campbell Group''s legal advisor that Mr. rk had no time


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    for their meeting.


    The news got to Daniel quickly.


    Daniel had expected this.


    Benjamin had been targeting him and would dly kick him when he was down if he had a chance.


    How could he help him out?


    Though this crisis was not so devastating, it was enough to keep Daniel busy.


    So he had no time to pester Madelyn.


    Let alone deal with Samuel.


    Benjamin truly lived up to his reputation as the bestwyer, for he was so good at manipting others.


    Daniel thought he had be a ruthless business over these years, butpared with Benjamin...


    He was no match!


    Daniel felt restless.


    He stood by the window wall, smoking cigarettes.


    He remembered that even during the Campbell Group''s most dire moment, he hadn''t smoked so much.


    At that time, Madelyn always reminded him gently, "Smoking too much isn''t good for you."


    Then she would put a mint candy in his mouth.


    It tasted refreshingly cool.


    Back then, Daniel found her somewhat annoying because he thought Madelyn was not good enough


    for him.


    Although she was pretty, she was too conservative.


    If it weren''t for scapegoating Samuel, how could he have spent four years with her? But now that he


    had lost her, he felt so empty.


    Perhaps he just hadn''t gotten used to life without her!


    Daniel told himself that he just needed time!


    There was knocking on the door.


    His secretary came in and informed him that something went wrong with the mall acquired earlier this


    year.


    Daniel simply said, "Go there and see what''s going on."


    Half an hourter, Daniel''s car arrived at the Ivy Mall.


    He spent nearly half a day dealing with this, and by the time he finished, it was already four o''clock in


    the afternoon. His secretary brought him a boxed meal and said, "Mr. Campbell, you haven''t had lunch


    yet! Please grab a bite."


    Daniel didn''t feel like eating anything.


    He just said, "Let''s head back to thepany."


    When he was about to leave the office center on the fourth floor, the exclusive elevator happened to


    break down, so he had to take the customer elevator.


    Having a sour face, Daniel felt annoyed.


    As the elevator reached the first floor, he caught sight of someone.


    He saw Madelyn.


    She was shopping alone, with several bags in her hands. At that moment, she was selecting which


    clothes to buy in a well-known men''s clothing store. She looked so attentive and even gentle.


    Daniel knew she was buying clothes for Benjamin.


    It hurt him so much that he couldn''t bear to see this anymore. He quickly left the mall and got into his


    car.


    Daniel closed his eyes and told the driver to head back to the Campbells'' mansion.


    The secretary also saw Madelyn, but she didn''t dare to mention her or ask him anything...


    Gabrie was surprised to see Daniel home, and when she was about to ask him about thepany,


    Daniel loosened his tie as he went upstairs, saying, "Mom, I''m tired and need some rest."


    Seeing his wary expression, Gabrie said nothing finally.


    Daniel entered his room and shut the door behind him. Hey on the bed and put his arms on his eyes.


    Suddenly he felt like crying, and he couldn''t stop thinking about Madelyn...

 Chapter 65 She Couldnt Sleep without Him Beside

    Chapter 65 She Couldn''t Sleep without Him Beside


    Chapter 65 She Couldn''t Sleep without Him Beside


    Daniel suddenly rolled over.


    He took over his phone and opened the hidden photo album.


    Inside, there was only one photo of Madelyn.


    It had been taken two or three years ago, and at that time, he used to workte into the night. Every


    evening, Madelyn would cook dinner for him and wait for him at home. That night, she fell asleep while


    waiting for too long.


    She looked so innocent and sweet.


    When he came back home tired, seeing her sleeping face made his heart soft.


    For one reason, he took a photo of her.


    Later he broke up with her and pursued Eloise, but he still kept this photo... Daniel didn''t know why he


    did this.


    Clearly, he didn''t like her so much!


    Also, he didn''t treat her well when he still got the chance!


    He kept staring at the picture for a long time until he heard knocking on the door. Gabrie''s voice


    came from outside the door, "Daniel, we need to talk."


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Daniel told her toe in and put away his phone.


    Gabrie entered, and it broke her heart to see her son''s pale and drawn face. However, there was


    something she had to tell him.


    "Daniel, what happened between you and Madelyn is a thing of the past now."


    "You''re already got engaged with Eloise, and you mustn''t let her down."


    "What''s more, Madelyn is living together with another man, and her reputation will be tarnished sooner


    orter. How can the Campbell family have such a daughter-inw?"


    Gabrie''s words were cutting.


    Daniel frowned and said coldly, "She doesn''t want to get back together with me either." After saying


    that, he grabbed his coat and headed out.


    Gabrie followed him out and asked, "Where are you going?"


    "My office."


    Sitting in his Lotus sports car, Daniel didn''t start it right away.


    He closed his eyes and thought about his mother''s words. It killed him to hear that Madelyn was living


    with another man.


    He thought if he hadn''t pushed her too far Madelyn would never have met Benjamin.


    Let alone living with Benjamin!


    ...


    Madelyn hurried back to the apartment before five o''clock.


    Since Benjamin was usually home around seven, she counted the time and made dinner first.


    For fear that she would get the cooking smell on her, she took a bath after cooking.


    Madelyn had a good day. She hung the clothes she bought one by one in Benjamin''s built-in wardrobe.


    Those soft fabric clothes matched well and blended with his luxurious suits.


    In the end, she took out the items she had bought for him.


    Two shirts and one belt.


    All were of international brands and cost a lot of money.


    She touched them slowly and pictured how dashing Benjamin would look when he wore them, which


    made her blush.


    Suddenly her phone rang, and it was Benjamin calling.


    Benjamin had a temper, but once they were in a rtionship he treated her quite well.


    "The new case I''ve taken is quite difficult, so I have to workte for the next few days."


    Madelyn asked, "Are you noting back for dinner?"


    Benjamin said yes and added before he should hang up, "I might only have time to go home and


    change clothes."


    Suddenly, Madelyn felt guilty for spending so much money today.


    Benjamin was really busy working and ended the call quickly.


    Madelyn put aside her phone, and her joy faded away while she was staring at the shirts hanging in the


    closet.


    She had dinner alone.


    She was not used to sleeping by herself. Usually, Benjamin would hug her and kiss her...


    Madelyn felt a little shy.


    Why would she miss Benjamin''s hugs?


    She forced herself to sleep, but she woke up a few times in the night. Benjamin still hadn''te back


    home in the morning, while ire stopped by...


    ire knew Benjamin''s work schedule well andforted her, "Mr. rk is often busy handling cases.


    Ms. Green, don''t worry about it!"


    Madelyn nodded.


    Since Benjamin was workingte and didn''t have time toe back, Madelyn thought she couldn''t just


    stay at home and do nothing. She asked ire to make another breakfast, and she would bring it to


    him.

 Chapter 66 You Need to Give Him What He Wants

    Chapter 66 You Need to Give Him What He Wants


    Chapter 66 You Need to Give Him What He Wants


    ire was delighted that they were in love and happily prepared the breakfast.


    Madelyn went back to the bedroom room. She was going to pack up a set of clothes and bring it along


    to thew firm. She rummage through all his clothes, but she was too embarrassed to send the shirts


    she had just bought for him. Instead, she chose the ones that he often wore.


    She packed his clothes in a bag and took a taxi to the Bravo Legal Firm.


    For fear that she would disturb Benjamin, she called Paisley and told her why she was there.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Paisley happened to be in Benjamin''s office, and she covered the phone as she spoke to Benjamin,


    "Ms. Green is here. She has brought breakfast and a set of spare clothes for you. She said she has put


    them at the front desk for me to pick up."


    Hearing what she said, Benjamin, who had been reading the documents, looked up at her.


    He stared at Paisley for a while before he spoke, "Go and bring them to me!"


    Paisley blushed, and her heart was racing under his gaze.


    Gosh!


    If she hadn''t been married and had children already, she wouldn''t have been able to resist his charm.


    However, didn''t Mr. rk want to see Ms. Green?


    Benjamin continued to go over the documents and said casually, probably because he had known what


    she was thinking, "We see each other every day. There''s no need to be so clingy."


    Paisley thought to herself that he was really good at hiding his true feelings!


    Nevertheless, she quickly went downstairs and managed to get the specially prepared breakfast before


    Madelyn left. She invited Madelyn toe upstairs with her.


    Madelyn smiled and replied, "No, thanks! I have to go to the hospitalter."


    Paisley wished her well and chatted with her for a few more minutes before Madelyn left.


    Paisley carried the breakfast and clothes upstairs and handed them over to Benjamin. Benjamin had


    been busy all night and happened to feel hungry, so he took a quick shower in the lounge and changed


    his clothes.


    After the shower, he looked refreshed and energetic again.


    Paisley touched the dark circles beneath her eyes and was jealous that he could be so robust and


    vigorous.


    Benjamin finished his breakfast.


    He sent a message to Madelyn.


    [Benjamin: Didn''t you buy me shirts yesterday? Why didn''t you bring one over?]


    Madelyn didn''t expect that he would text her, and this message made her feel shy. Without much


    thought, she replied.


    [Madelyn: I forgot to buy shirts for Mr. rk.]


    Benjamin chuckled as he looked at the phone screen... He liked it when she said no but meant yes.


    Madelyn waited for a while, but he didn''t reply again.


    She didn''t care much about it.


    Just as she was about to open the taxi-hailing app, Vivian called.


    Vivian, who was straightforward, started cursing before telling her what was going on, "Madelyn, you


    won''t believe what Elizabeth has done!... She''s fucking insane!"


    Madelyn was shocked and asked, "What did she do this time?"


    Vivian sneered, "I heard that Daniel has dumped her, and instead of seeking revenge on him, she


    mes it on you! Our school is an education institute, and this time, Elizabeth has not only invited the


    faculty of our school but also some influential parents. She wants to destroy youpletely."


    Madelyn could never imagine that Elizabeth would go this far.


    How much did she hate her?


    Madelyn was silent, and Vivian was worried about her, asking, "What are you nning to do? Has


    Benjamin agreed to help you?"


    Madelyn didn''t hide it from her and replied in a low voice, "He said the night before that he woulde


    to the ss reunion with me, but these days, he''s been busy again. I''m afraid he won''t have time to


    make it."


    Vivian was speechless.


    She half joked and half scolded, "You silly! No matter how busy he is, he can spare a few hours.


    Madelyn, remember that if you want a man to do something for you, you have to give him what he


    wants first..."


    Giving him what he wanted?


    Madelyn felt ashamed to admit that she didn''t have much experience and she hadn''t had sex with


    Benjamin yet.


    Vivian didn''t want to hear her excuses and just said, "Madelyn, you must win Benjamin''s heart!"

 Chapter 67 Are You Wearing This for Me

    Chapter 67 Are You Wearing This for Me


    Chapter 67 Are You Wearing This for Me


    Madelyn''s face turn red upon hearing those words.


    Although she had been living with Benjamin for some time, she still felt nervous about taking control in


    bed.


    Besides, he didn''t have time toe home now.


    She couldn''t juste to hispany...


    Just the thought of it made Madelyn feel ashamed.


    Actually, Benjamin was swamped with work, and he hadn''t returned to the apartment for three days in a


    row.


    How could Madelyn bother him with her own problems?


    She simply continued to send breakfast and a set of change clothes every day, and Benjamin didn''t say


    anything!


    ...


    On Wednesday, Madelyn spent the whole day with Samuel.


    In the evening, she was preparing some snacks in the apartment, which she would bring to Benjamin


    the next day.


    While she was busy in the kitchen, Benjamin called.


    He was likely to be exhausted, for his voice was hoarse, saying, "I''ll be back soon!"


    Madelyn was surprised, and then her cheeks flushed. Was...heing back?


    Her heart skipped a beat, and she didn''t know how to respond.


    Benjamin''s voice softened a bit, "Are you not happy to see me?"


    "No!" Madelyn replied gently, "Well... I''ll prepare the meal. What would you like to eat?"


    Instead of answering her question, Benjamin asked in return, "Do you miss me?"


    Madelyn didn''t expect him to flirt with her over the phone. In her mind, he was still the dignified man


    wearing a suit and tie and sitting in his office. Yet here he was, speaking to her like this on the phone.


    Even though they were talking over the phone, Madelyn could easily feel the attraction between them.


    She admitted, "Yes, I do."


    Benjamin said nothing more after that. He just gave a low and gentleugh, and she felt as if he was


    blowing into her ear, which made her heart pound.


    She was absent-minded while cooking.


    When Benjamin returned, how should she bring up the ss reunion? Did she really have to seduce


    him?


    Just as the dinner was ready, Benjamin arrived.


    After several busy days, Benjamin looked slightly weary but still handsome and spirited. Seeing


    Madelyn was setting the table, he walked over and hugged her from behind, asking, "What time is the


    reunion on Saturday night? And where will it be held?"


    Madelyn couldn''t believe he still remembered this and asked her about it.


    She was touched.


    Even if... even if their rtionship didn''t work out in the end, Benjamin''s love for her was touching, and


    she didn''t feel she was belittled or neglected.


    Madelyn held his hand and turned her face to him, so he could kiss her.


    They hadn''t met for several days, and they hadn''t truly had sex before, so they wanted each other so


    badly.


    At first, they had it under control, but as they kissed, they were both turned on...


    Madelyn even kissed him back.


    Benjamin pressed his lips against hers and asked with a smile, "Do you miss me that much?"


    Madelyn wrapped her arms around his neck and let herself drown in his kiss. She kissed him again and


    replied, "I haven''t received the invitation yet, but it is likely to begin at seven in the evening, and I''ll


    keep you informed as soon as I know where it''s held."


    She was still worried about work and asked, "Won''t it interfere with your work?"


    Benjamin smiled.


    He deliberately dropped her hand and said, "I won''t go if you don''t want me to."


    Madelyn''s face blushed as she held him tightly and was afraid that he would just leave.


    Benjamin lightly rubbed her face and teased her, "Are you so eager, Ms. Green? At least let me have a


    meal first. Right now, I may not have the strength to satisfy you."

    No matter how cheeky Madelyn might be, she didn''t dare to hold onto him anymore.


    Considerately, she served him rice and soup, then picked up two steamed dumplings for him, saying,


    "ire has told that you really like eating this dish. I was nning to cook it for breakfast tomorrow."


    Benjamin usually ate out for lunch and dinner.


    Now, suddenly having someone cook meals carefully for him felt so good!


    Especially he liked her nice body as well.


    Though the case he was working on was tough, Benjamin knew what he should do next now, so he


    was in a good mood.


    In the living room, he leaned back on the sofa, browsing through the documents.


    Madelyn spent a long time in the bathroom and finally gathered up her courage toe out. Tonight,


    she put on a champagne-colored silk nightgown for him and looked very sexy when half-naked...

    Benjamin looked down at her.


    He was staring at her with deep, captivating eyes.


    His intense gaze made Madelyn shy but she still sat on hisp, held onto his neck, and whispered,


    "Benjamin, my period is over now."


    Benjamin said nothing.


    Instead, he just held her tight in his arms and kissed her passionately.


    He kissed her so hard that she felt she was almost melted by his kiss. Though she could barely stand


    on her own, Madelyn didn''t ask him to stop...


    She thought they would getid tonight.


    However, after kissing and touching her, Benjamin leaned against her shoulder and panted while trying


    to calm himself down.


    "I''m too exhausted today! Can we wait for a few more days?"


    Madelyn''s body trembled slightly.


    She had never enjoyed making out so much before. Benjamin showed her how good this could be, but


    now, at this critical moment, he said he wanted to stop!


    What was she supposed to do?


    After all, Benjamin was a mature man. He chuckled, lifted her in his arms, and walked straight toward


    the bedroom.


    The door was half closed and inside they were having a passionate night.


    ...


    In the early morning, Madelyn woke up.


    Benjamin was by the bedside, tying his tie. Seeing that she was awake, he bent down and gave her a


    morning kiss.


    Though feeling shy, Madelyn didn''t push him away.


    After the kiss, her face turned slightly red. She hadn''t brushed her teeth yet.


    Benjamin spoke to her gently, "I will have a meetingter. You can go back to sleep! By the way, ire


    takes a day off today."


    Hearing this, Madelyn wanted to get up and make breakfast for him.


    Benjamin gently pressed her back to bed and looked deeply into her eyes, saying, "I''ll have Paisley

    take care of this."


    Madelyn nodded.


    After all, they slept togetherst night, and they couldn''t get enough of each other. They kissed for a


    long time again.


    Madelyn just noticed that he was wearing the shirt she had bought for him.


    The shirt was brown, and he paired it with gray suit pants.


    He also wore a burgundy skinny tie.


    Dressed like this, he looked younger, handsome, and elegant.


    Such a handsome appearance would captivate any woman''s heart. Rubbing his shirt gently, Madelyn


    knew she was attracted to him.


    Benjamin nced at the clock, kissed her again, and then left for work.


    Madelyn was about to go back to sleep for a while longer. She didn''t fall asleep untiltest night.


    Though they didn''t really have sexual intercourse, they...had a wonderful night. Her face turned red and


    her heart was beating wildly at the thoughts of those intimate details. However, she pondered, what


    was he waiting for?


    Oddly enough, he looked eager.


    ...


    In the afternoon, Vivian invited her to meet at a caf¨¦.


    As soon as Madelyn sat down, Vivian handed her an invitation, saying, "In the business banquet hall on


    the 2nd floor of Brocade Hotel on Saturday evening."


    Madelyn took the invitation over and looked at it carefully.


    Vivian cleared her throat, leaned in, and asked, "Did Mr. rk agree?... I mean, despite his reserved


    demeanor, I think he''d do anything for you, and all you have to do is ask."


    Madelyn couldn''t help but think aboutst night.


    Though they hadn''t really had intercourse, she felt that Benjamin was good in bed and knew women''s


    hearts so well.


    She simply replied, "There shouldn''t be any problems."


    Vivian was relieved.


    She nudged Madelyn with her arm and teased her, "See, I told you, it''s easier to ask a man for a favor


    when he''s satisfied."


    Madelyn nearly choked on her coffee.


    Vivian patted her back and shared with her what she knew, "I heard Daniel didn''t n to attend the


    reunion at first, but when he heard that you would be there, he changed his mind and even offered


    thirty thousand dors for the drinks."


    Madelyn lowered her gaze andmented with a smile, "He really didn''t have to do this."


    Vivian looked at her delightedly, saying, "Good for you! You don''t care about Daniel anymore. You are


    indeed in love with Mr. rk now."


    Madelyn shook her head and exined, "We''re just together for now. We cannot possibly be together


    forever."


    Vivian was about tofort her when she saw several girls in fashionable clothes walk out of the


    elevator across from the caf¨¦.


    Vivian gritted her teeth and said angrily, "What a coincidence!"

    Chapter 69 Mr. rk Can Easily Make Their Husbands Bankrupt


    Hearing what she said, Madelyn couldn''t help but look up at them.


    She saw Elizabeth, who was chatting with several richdies.


    Thesedies used to hire Madelyn as the piano teacher for their children, and they used to have a


    good rtionship. However, since Madelyn''s reputation suffered, they demanded her to resign.


    Elizabeth was the new piano teacher.


    Now, it was awkward that they met by chance. Thesedies forced a smile, but they didn''t greet


    Madelyn.


    In contrast, Madelyn offered friendly greetings to them.


    Elizabeth had been holding a grudge against Madelyn since she was dumped by Daniel. Now that she


    ran into Madelyn, it was a great chance to humiliate Madelyn in front of these parents.


    Elizabeth walked over to her.


    She said casually, "Madelyn, I didn''t expect to meet you here! It seems like you''re doing well after


    quitting your job. The coffee here isn''t something just anyone can afford. You can''t spend money like


    you did before, especially after such bad things happened to your family. "


    Madelyn just smiled.


    Elizabeth deliberately raised her voice, saying, "Are those rumors on the school forum true? Madelyn,


    you didn''t be the mistress of an old man for money, did you?"


    Those parents gasped in shock.


    They suddenly realized that Madelyn was good-looking. Perhaps she often visited their homes and


    gave their children free tutoring just to seduce their husbands!


    Therefore, their impression of Madelyn became worse!


    Yet, Madelyn didn''t argue with her.


    She simply smiled and replied, "I''m with someone now, and we have just been together."


    Elizabeth was surprised.


    She hadn''t expected Madelyn would just admit it. Well, it looked like she had found a wealthy old man.


    She didn''t have to worry about money for the rest of her life!


    Elizabeth also smiled and said to thosedies, "Everyone has different goals."


    These parents were as polite and kind to Elizabeth as they had been to Madelyn before.


    "We can trust Ms. Dn with our kids."


    "Personality is what matters most."


    "Apparently Ms. Dn is a decent person."


    ...


    Elizabeth was ttered by a group of wealthydies, and she had won them over from Madelyn.


    She felt so ted.


    She leaned closer to Madelyn and whispered, "If I were you, Madelyn, I wouldn''t even go to the ss


    reunion! Save yourself from embarrassment!"


    Madelyn looked down.


    She sighed, "Is it worth doing this for a man like Daniel?" They used to be good friends when they were


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    freshmen in college, but things had gradually changed because of Daniel.


    Elizabeth sneered and left.


    Madelyn didn''t get to tell her whether it was worth it or not. Elizabeth simply couldn''t stand to see


    Madelyn have an easy life.


    After they were gone, Madelyn turned to look at Vivian.


    "You were quiteposed today. Usually, you would lose your temper."


    Vivian tossed her hair and replied, "The best part of the show is always at the end! Madelyn... what will


    be the look on those people''s faces when Benjamin sits next to you. Those women seem wealthy and


    powerful, but their husbands rely on the rk Group. Not to mention Mr. rk''s status in the legal


    Thinking of him made Madelyn smile.


    Trying to hide her smile, she immediately took a sip of her coffee and asked, "Is he really that good?"


    Vivian teased her, "I think you should know better than me."


    Madelyn refused to keep talking about this.


    Right this time, Benjamin sent her a Line message which was just a short sentence.


    [Benjamin: Ms. Green, did you enjoy yourselfst night?]


    Madelyn''s face was burning. She bit her lip and texted him back.


    [Madelyn: It was alright.]


    Soon after she sent him the message, her phone vibrated. She got another message from Benjamin.


    [Benjamin: I had a great timest night! How about we go back early from the ss reunion on


    Saturday?]


    Madelyn didn''t know how to reply, and Vivian snatched her phone away. However, Vivian''s eyes


    widened as she saw their messages... Damn! How could Mr. rk discuss so openly such private


    things?


    He was quite audacious!

    Chapter 70 William, the Pride of Overseas Manbian


    After pausing for a while, Vivian managed to say, "Mr. rk is quite experienced."


    Madelyn, who was very reserved, blushed as she took back her phone.


    No matter how hard Vivian tried, Madelyn refused to give her more details.


    Madelyn was too embarrassed to tell her that they slept togetherst night, but they didn''t have


    intercourse. Even so, Benjamin spent a lot of time on forey...


    Vivian wanted to tease her one more time.


    At this point, a piece of news was aired on TV in the caf¨¦.


    Renowned pianist William decided to return to Manba after staying in Monatiz for many years. He was


    preparing for the concert tour across several major cities.


    The venue was swarmed with journalists.


    Vivian said admiringly, "William is the pride of our nation! It''s very difficult to get a ticket to his concert


    even when you are rich, and he is sought after by countless people! Who would have imagined that 25


    years ago, he was just a destitute youngster struggling to pay his rent?"


    Madelyn had yed the piano for years and also knew about William.


    She looked up to him, and her teacher had once mentioned that her style of piano ying was a little


    simr to William''s.


    That made Madelyn feel excited for quite some time.


    William was god-like to her, after all.


    Seeing the news about him and hearing his name again, Madelyn could still feel a surge of passion in


    her heart.


    She didn''t want to give up ying the piano.


    Perhaps Benjamin was right. After everything was over, she should go to Monatiz for further studies.


    Noticing Madelyn was lost in thought, Vivian asked, "What''s the matter, Madelyn?"


    Wearing a faint smile, Madelyn replied, "I''m fine."


    Vivian looked at the screen again and suddenly said, "Madelyn, have you noticed that both William and


    you are ambidextrous? That''s quite rare."


    Madelyn also paid closer attention as she watched the news.


    That was true.


    Years ago William also showed great dexterity with both his hands.


    Madelyn smiled and said, "Perhaps it''s because we both y the piano."


    Vivian nudged her arm, saying, "Oh,e on! The odds of that are very low. It has nothing to do with


    ying the piano; it''s just a coincidence."


    Madelyn agreed with her as she stared at the elegant man on TV.


    Vivian joked, "If I hadn''t witnessed the love between you and Mr. rk, I would have thought that you


    fell in love with an elder man."


    Madelyn was about to scold her.


    Vivian immediately pleaded with her hands folded, "Madelyn, we should be worrying about what to


    wear to the reunion! We can''t let Elizabeth outshine us in clothing."


    Madelyn had no interest inparing herself with someone like Elizabeth, but since Benjamin was to


    attend the event, she thought she should make him embarrassed.


    So, Madelyn picked two pairs of high heels and restyled her long hair.


    After she dressed herself up, she couldn''t help but admire her stunning beauty.


    After taking a taxi home, shey on the sofa as she called Benjamin. It rang for a while before he finally


    answered the call.


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    "Are youing home tonight?"


    Benjamin chuckled, "Last night was incredible. Do you want more tonight?"


    Madelyn blushed and didn''t say anything.


    Standing on the second-floor terrace of the rks'' mansion, Benjamin flicked the white curtains with


    his slender fingers as he spoke to her in a low voice, "An old friend of my father has returned from


    Monatiz and will be arriving soon. I think I won''t be able toe back tonight."


    Monatiz?


    What a coincidence!


    William had also returned from Monatiz.


    Madelyn''s heart softened as she said, "Take good care of the guest, then."


    Benjamin nodded. Just as he was about to say something else, he heard an ethereal voice calling from


    behind, "Benjamin!"


    Benjamin turned around.


    Standing behind him was a man in his forties, who was charming and elegant.


    He greeted him with a smile, "Mr. Bet, it''s been a long time."


    This man was William, a close friend of Alexander''s for many years. They understood each other and


    shared simr interests.


    When he came back this time, in the name of having a concert tour, he was secretly looking for his own


    daughter...

    William smiled, "It''s been a few years! Benjamin, I heard you''re doing well in your career."


    Benjamin humbly responded.


    They chatted casually for a while, and Eloise came up from downstairs. She liked to take William''s arm


    acting like a little girl, "Uncle, my father is waiting for you downstairs."


    William patted Eloise''s hand gently.


    It showed great affection.


    Eloise smiled brightly and apanied him downstairs. "Didn''t Eleanore back this time?"


    William was taken aback.


    He instinctively looked back at Benjamin.


    He was leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, his dark clothes blending into the night outside. He


    furrowed his brow, lifted his chin slightly, and slowly smoked a cigarette with his slender fingers...


    William sighed, thinking that Benjamin was truly outstanding.


    He looked sad and whispered to Eloise, "Well, she''s noting back for now." He couldn''t hear what


    else Eloise said...


    On the terrace, Benjamin slowly finished a cigarette before leisurely walking down the stairs in


    response to his family''s urging.


    Tonight, the rks'' mansion had important guests.


    The household servants were busy, making it lively and bustling.


    Alexander prepared a sumptuous feast to wee his good friends. He hugged William warmly and


    said, "It''s been a few years since west met, but you still look as charming as ever! Look at me. I''m


    clearly getting older."


    Eloise joked softly, "Dad, do you wanna return to youth and find a second love?"


    Everyone at the tableughed.


    Brianna scolded her lovingly, "What nonsense! If you keep talking like that, your dad will scold you."


    Eloise yfully stuck out her tongue. "Uncle William will protect me."


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Brianna smiled lightly and said gently to William, "Eloise has always liked sticking to you since she was


    little."


    William looked at Eloise, feeling a pang in his heart.


    Although he and his wife had a daughter, she wasn''t their biological child but adopted. If he hadn''t


    ced such importance on his pride back then, causing his girlfriend to leave with disappointment,


    wouldn''t he have his own flesh and blood like Eloise?


    Just as lively and adorable as Eloise!


    He felt sad and whispered softly, "Eloise is very likable!" He also rubbed Eloise''s head gently.


    Eloise didn''t understand why but blinked her eyes innocently.


    Alexander was afraid that his old friend would be sad and changed the topic to keep the


    atmosphere lively again.


    When they were drinking and talking happily, Alexander noticed that his son''s mood was not high and


    his face remained indifferent. Alexander sighed slightly.


    They had a weing dinner and ate until dawn.


    Brianna asked the servants to prepare guest rooms, but William insisted on staying at the hotel. The


    rk family couldn''t persuade him otherwise, so they had a driver send him back to the hotel.


    The hustle and bustle came to an end.


    Therge dining room looked particrly deste under the reflected light of crystal chandeliers. Only


    the servants were cleaning up the leftovers, making subtle sounds of cups and tes shing against


    each other.


    Benjamin was about to return to his room when Alexander stopped him, "Benjamin, I need to talk to


    you."


    Benjamin looked deep into his father''s eyes.


    Alexander walked past him and whispered, "Let''s go to the study to talk."


    After a moment, the father and son arrived at the study.


    Benjamin closed the door and made some sobering tea for his father, saying calmly, "Dad, what can''t


    wait until morning?"


    Alexander picked up the tea but didn''t drink it, leaving it aside.


    He looked serious and said, "Benjamin, today when William came over, you didn''t seem very


    interested!"


    Benjamin pulled out a cigarette, lowered his head and lit it up.


    Thin smoke rose up, making their faces somewhat blurry. Benjamin smiled faintly and said, "It''s


    nothing! Maybe I have been too tiredtely."


    Like father, like son!


    This kind of talk couldn''t trick Alexander!


    The father pondered and then slowly spoke, "Benjamin, I don''t care about your past with Eleanor! The


    only thing I care about is that you young people shouldn''t mess things up and affect the friendship


    between me and William."


    Benjamin took a deep drag on his cigarette and then extinguished it in the brown ashtray.


    He got up with a faint smile, "Then I''ll go back now."

    Alexander was not happy. "Isn''t this your home? Why are you leaving sote at night?"


    Alexander had a bad temper and was arbitrary with everyone.


    Others were afraid of him, but Benjamin wasn''t.


    His tone was even more indifferent, "Just going back to look up some files."


    Alexander couldn''t do anything about him and waved his hand. "Get out of here! Being just awyer,


    wiping people''s butts every day. You even like being busy!"


    Benjamin mocked him, "The rk Group pays me 80 million a year to be their legal advisor. I thought


    you knew that, Dad!"


    Alexander threw a paperweight at him.


    "Get out!"


    Benjamin left quickly.


    As soon as he got in the car, Alexander followed and opened the car door to scold him, "What are you


    doing? You drank almost half a catty of white wine, and you still want to drive yourself back? Why don''t


    you fly a rocket to the moon?"


    Benjamin got out of the car and handed the keys to the driver.


    The driver was an old family member and could tell that Benjamin wasn''t in a good mood. He didn''t


    dare to say much and only took him to the apartment.


    The car stopped.


    Benjamin leaned back on the chair and exhaled lightly, "Asher, you go back first!"


    Asher left helplessly.


    With this posture, Benjamin took out a cigarette and put it to his lips.


    The lighter lit up.


    His elegant fingers held the snow-white cigarette, slowly inhaling and exhaling. The smoke entered his


    lungs, colliding with a twinge of pain.


    But strangely enough, he felt good!


    He smoked four or five cigarettes before getting out of the car and entering the apartment.


    He opened the door, and the living room was dim.


    But it wasn''tpletely dark. The curtains in the living room were drawn back, and the faint moonlight


    spilled into the whole house, giving it a somewhat romantic and beautiful atmosphere.


    Benjamin threw his coat on the sofa and walked quietly to the master bedroom, turning on a bedside


    Madelyn was sleeping.


    Her small white face was clean and pure, resting on the pillow with her long brown hair spread out,


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    making her look indescribably beautiful.


    Benjamin reached into the covers and teasingly touched her!


    Madelyn woke up because of him.


    Her eyes were moist as she bit her lips, looking at him.


    She didn''t dare to stop him or move away, just lying there letting him do as he pleased.


    Benjamin lifted her head and kissed her passionately.


    The deeper they kissed, the more passionate they became...


    After a long while, Madelyn couldn''t stand it anymore and put her face on his shoulder, refusing to let


    him kiss her anymore.


    She breathed heavily, asking, "Why did youe back? You smell strongly of alcohol."


    Benjamin exhaled a few words, "Yeah, it was the white wine at the family banquet."


    He held her and sat on the bed, but it seemed like he didn''t have any intentions of having sex. Madelyn


    said softly, "Go take a shower, and I''ll cook noodles for you."


    Her voice was soft, and Benjamin couldn''t help but kiss her again.


    They kissed and hugged each other intimately...


    It felt like they wanted to kiss until the end of time!


    Madelyn couldn''t help but hold him tightly, her slender fingers leaving fine marks on his shirt. At this


    point, they both wanted each other badly. Benjamin even thought about doing it.


    But he felt that it was too hasty to have sex with Madelyn tonight.


    In the end, he ended the kiss.


    "I''ll go take a shower! Make some mushroom and chicken noodles."


    He took off his clothes and went into the bathroom. This usually meticulous person even threw his


    clothes all over the floor... Madelyn knew he did it on purpose.


    Her face flushed, and her heart pounded as she couldn''t bear to look at his body.


    Madelyn picked up his clothes and put them in theundry basket before going to the kitchen. She was


    skilled, and within ten minutes, she finished making the noodles.


    The vegetable was green and the noodles was white.


    With the addition of a few drops of sesame oil.


    It looked beautiful and smelled very fragrant


    Benjamin finished his shower and came out to sit at the table and eat the noodles.


    Having attended many social events, he preferred homely dishes. Although Madelyn''s cooking wasn''t


    particrly fancy, it suited his taste well.


    He ate while handling some business on his phone before looking at Madelyn.


    "Did you do your hair?"

    Madelyn lightly stroked her long hair and said regretfully, "It got a bit messy from sleeping."


    Benjamin gave a faint smile.


    He said, "Send me the time and address. I still have a few busy days ahead."


    Madelyn quickly ran back to the bedroom to grab her phone and sent the information to him.


    Benjamin saved it in his notes.


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    As he looked up, he saw Madelyn staring at him intently.


    He knew she admired his appearance and couldn''t help but feel a bit of male vanity. He lightly pinched


    her cheek and asked, "You like staring at me? Why didn''t you look at me when I was taking a shower?"


    As he spoke, his eyes and eyebrows had a distinct flirty look, characteristic of a mature man.


    Madelyn blushed.


    She pretended to want to clean up the dishes, but her hand was held by Benjamin. His voice was


    unusually hoarse as he said, "Let ire clean up tomorrow morning!"


    Madelyn understood his message from his tone, but she was not proactive and did not understand his


    intentions, especially when he was not making a move on her, and she couldn''t figure out what he


    meant.


    Benjamin carried her back to the master bedroom. Just likest night, he stopped after a simple


    satisfaction.


    Madelyn leaned in his arms.


    He whispered in her ear, "Let''s save the rest for Saturday, OK?"


    Madelyn was too embarrassed to speak and buried her face in his warm neck. She knew him so well


    after spending so much time together.


    Benjamin was in control of everything.


    Even when it came to sex, he was in charge. When they would do it and to what extent, it was up to


    him.


    Madelyn could only listen to him.


    Late at night, she was exhausted and fell asleep.


    In the darkness, Benjamin quietly watched her fair face.


    Despite his bad mood tonight, returning to the apartment and having someone so gentle take care of


    him, letting him do as he pleased, this feeling was great for any man!


    Benjamin suddenly wanted to spoil her.


    They spent a wonderful night on Saturday, and Madelyn should be happy waking up on Sunday


    morning!


    ...


    Madelyn woke up early in the morning.


    Benjamin was no longer in the apartment, and even ire had finished her chores and left.


    Madelyn felt like she had fallen into depravity.


    She was addicted to Benjamin''s tenderness! They clearly had that kind of rtionship, but every time


    he was intimate with her, she would be deeply moved.


    Madelyn wondered. Was she...always like this? She just didn''t realize it before, and Benjamin brought


    out this side of her?


    She dared not think further and quickly got up to wash her face.


    She didn''t have much worktely and spent her free time with her father and Cam.


    Samuel had been discharged from the hospital and moved back to his upscale neighborhood.


    Madelyn did not live at home.


    Whenever Samuel asked, Cam helped Madelyn cover up.


    After lunch, Madelyn helped Cam wash fruit in the kitchen. Cam whispered, "I heard that Daniel


    has been having a hard time recently. Did Benjamin really deal with him?"


    Madelyn nodded.


    She had heard about Daniel from Vivian. Vivian told her that Benjamin didn''t give him deadly attack, so


    Daniel was in a bad state for the time being, but he would probably recover in a month or two.


    Cam heard that, then gritted her teeth and said, "He got off too lightly!"


    But Madelyn was indifferent. "As long as my father is safe, that''s the most important thing! Daniel is


    Benjamin''s rtive by marriage; he wouldn''t really destroy his sister''s marriage for me."


    Cam suddenly said after a daze, "Madelyn, I have wronged you!"


    She had said she wouldn''t sell her daughter, but in the end, she watched Madelyn go to Benjamin. She


    knew Benjamin wasn''t a good person, but she kept lying to herself so that her conscience could be at


    ease.


    Madelyn shook her head. "It has nothing to do with you, Cam."


    Although she was not Samuel''s biological daughter, Samuel had given all his love to her, even refusing


    to have his own children. She was willing to cost her life to repay his kindness.

    Chapter 74 Daniel, Shame on You!


    With this conversation, the atmosphere was inevitably subtle.


    Madelyn was ready to sit for a while and then go back.


    Just then, the doorbell rang. Cam was helping Samuel with his rehabilitation and casually said,


    "Madelyn, can you answer the door?"


    Madelyn went to open the door.


    After opening the door, her face slowly turned pale.


    There stood Daniel outside, with seven or eight cigarette butts at his feet. It was unclear how long he


    had been there...


    When their eyes met, Daniel''s eyes held an indissoluble gloom.


    Cam''s voice came from inside the room, "Who is it?" Madelyn quickly replied, "It''s an insurance


    salesman!" Then she closed the door behind her.


    Seeing Daniel again, Madelyn lost her previous feeling.


    She asked coldly, "What are you here for? If you''re here to see my dad, spare us both. Do you think my


    dad hasn''t suffered enough?"


    Daniel threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground and lightly stepped on it with his exquisite leather


    shoes. When he raised his head, his gaze was deep. "Madelyn, I''m here to see you!"


    He said, "Go to see our old apartment! Your things are still there, you can take them back now."


    Madelyn found it ridiculous.


    He dared to mention it!


    She used to think that apartment was her fondest memory, butter realized it was like sugar mixed


    with poison. Without thinking, she said, "I don''t want them! Just throw them away."


    Daniel wasn''t surprised that she refused.


    His Adam''s apple rolled as he said softly, "You know I won''t throw them away. Madelyn, I can''t bear


    to..."


    "Whatever!"


    Madelyn opened the door and was about to go back inside.


    Suddenly, Daniel hugged her from behind. He held her close and whispered, "Madelyn, don''t be so


    cold. You weren''t like this before!"


    At that moment, Madelyn hated him!


    She struggled to break free from his embrace and gave him a p.


    "Daniel, shame on you!"


    "We''ve over long ago!"


    ...


    Daniel looked stunned, his handsome face showing signs of hurt. Even though he was pped in the


    face, he didn''t react.


    Madelyn didn''t feel sorry for him.


    She knew Daniel too well. At this moment, he was frustrated and couldn''tin to his pampered


    fiancee, so he thought of Madelyn''s kindness. But Madelyn was a person, not an emotional garbage


    processor.


    She wasn''t a tissue either!


    Trying to remain calm, Madelyn told Daniel, "Mr. Campbell, from now on, you can take your path and I''ll


    take mine. I have forgot the past and move on, and please forget it, too."


    Daniel looked at Madelyn in front of him.


    Her gentle little face was still the same, but no longer as submissive as before.


    Their rtionship had always been one where Madelyn gave more than he did. He didn''t care this


    rtionship. He pursued Eloise when he thought it was the right time and broke up with Madelyn. He


    never thought to exin or apologize.


    He always thought that Madelyn loved him so much that she would always be his woman.


    Now that Madelyn had moved on.


    But he couldn''t let go!


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Daniel was proud, and with one hand in his pocket, he tightly clenched a key to the old apartment.


    It was the one Madelyn used to use!


    He smiled and said nonchntly, "Yes, we should both forget! It''s better for both of us."


    Madelyn remained silent.


    Daniel leaned in, his tone carrying a hint of danger. "But do you really think Benjamin loves you? Look


    at the magazines and newspapers. Which woman can tie him down? And...when your reputation was


    ruined by Elizabeth, did he help you? Madelyn, I can help you!"


    At this moment, Daniel was feeling something.


    Madelyn was the piece of meat that he couldn''t have before. He didn''t love her before, but now he


    thought about her day and night!

    Chapter 75 She''s Ruthless! Ended This Rtionship Completely.


    Chapter 75 She''s Ruthless! Ended This Rtionship Completely.


    Madelyn lowered her gaze and smiled faintly.


    She knew about her rtionship with Benjamin, but he had never mistreated her, at least not while they


    were together openly and honestly.


    Madelyn remained silent.


    Daniel sneered in embarrassment.


    He used to think she was soft, but now he realized how heartless Madelyn could be!


    Yes! Why didn''t he think of that before?


    At the time, when he pursued Eloise, he called Madelyn to break up with her. He thought she would cry


    and beg him to stay, but she just stayed silent for a minute and softly said "okay".


    From that day on, Madelyn never contacted him again.


    It was as if their past never existed, as if she never liked him for four years. She didn''t take anything


    from the apartment and even blocked each other''s social media ounts.


    She ended this rtionshippletely!


    Sometimes, Daniel wondered if Madelyn really loved him or else how could she be so carefree?


    Suddenly, he turned around and left.


    After going downstairs, he took out the apartment key from his pocket and threw it in the trash can...


    Madelyn stood there for a while.


    Cam''s voice came from inside, "Madelyn, why are you still outside?"


    Madelyn responded and went inside after being calm down.


    Samuel was asleep, so Madelyn prepared to leave after tidying up. Cam sent her to the door.


    When Madelyn opened the door, the cigarette butts on the ground told everything.


    Cam guessed what happened and became somewhat excited. "That bastard came to look for you


    again? Madelyn, you have to be clear-headed. Daniel is aplete bastard."


    Madelyn patted Cam''s hand andforted her softly, "Don''t worry. I won''t."


    At this time, Benjamin called.


    With Cam there, Madelyn felt somewhat ufortable speaking.


    Cam was very open-minded and voluntarily went back to the room to avoid listening. However, when


    she closed the door, she couldn''t help but think that it would be great if Madelyn and Mr. rk could


    be a couple! Although Madelyn didn''t say it, Cam noticed her pink diamond ne gone from


    her neck, which was the only memento left by her mother.


    Benjamin stayed in the office for a few more days.


    On Friday, he called Madelyn saying he would stay at the apartment overnight. Madelyn blushed


    slightly and said, "Okay."


    They hadn''t seen each other for a few days, and Benjamin flirted with her. "Are you so happy to see me


    that much?"


    "Which part of you are miss me?"


    ...


    Madelyn thought he was shameless.


    Mr. rk seemed serious on the outside, but he was full of a bad guy inside.


    Madelyn didn''t want to lose, so she said softly, "Every part of me missed you!"


    Benjamin was caught off guard.


    He didn''t expect Madelyn to be so bold and take the initiative to tease him. This made him look forward


    to tomorrow night even more. Although Madelyn hinted that she had never been with a man before,


    Benjamin always thought it was just a small game between two adults.


    He never took it serious!


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apple moved gently, saying, "Little bad girl."


    Madelyn said softly, "I''ll run your bath!" And she hung up.


    Benjamin loosened his tie with his slender fingers.


    He almost immediately closed hisptop, put on his coat, and walked outside. Paisley was surprised to


    see him leave since she thought Mr. rk was going to work all night.


    Benjamin was in a good mood.


    He signed a 50,000 dor bill and let Paisley and the others go out for dinner as a reward for their hard


    work recently.


    He signed the bill with a faint smile on his face.


    He looked particrly handsome.


    Paisley thought to herself, "He''s so excited. He must be in a hurry to go home and see Ms. Green! I''ve


    never seen him bring a woman home before."N?velDrama.Org content.

    Chapter 76 I miss you! Everywhere!


    Benjamin was getting ready to drive home when his phone rang.


    He looked at it and saw that it was the client in his case.


    The client''s voice trembled with nervousness, "Mr. rk, the other party suddenly has new evidence,


    which is very unfavorable to me!"


    Benjamin lightly touched the steering wheel with his hand as he furrowed his brow, "Send me the


    information!"


    After hanging up the phone, he quickly received the information and indeed it was a difficult problem.


    Benjamin was a man who valued his career. Without hesitation, he got out of the car and went back to


    the office to announce overtime work.


    Thepany was filled withint.


    Until three in the morning, Benjamin remembered he promised Madelyn to go back and spend the night


    with her. Madelyn should have cooked for him and left bathwater for him.


    Benjamin picked up his phone thinking of calling her, but he thought she must be asleep.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    In the end, he only sent a message.


    [I have urgent matters to handle! Tomorrow night I will go directly to the Brocade Hotel.]


    As soon as he finished sending the message, Paisley brought in a stack of documents.


    "Mr. rk, the meeting is ready."


    ...


    Late at night, in the apartment.


    Madelyn was lying on the table, and her small face was pale under the dim yellow light.


    Her phone vibrated a few times on the desktop.


    Madelyn woke up suddenly. She opened her phone and learned that he wouldn''t being back


    tonight. She stared at the message for a long time, then slowly clearing the table and going to the


    bathroom to drain the bath water.


    The oil-infused water had already turned cold.


    After washing up simply, Madelyn climbed into bed. Although she was so tired, she couldn''t fall asleep.


    Perhaps it was true.


    She missed him everywhere.


    She slept until the next morning and Vivian called her.


    Madelyn answered, her voice a little hoarse.


    Vivian joked with her, "It''s almost 10 o''clock, Madelyn, and you''re still sleeping? Does Mr. rk have


    such a high demand?"


    Madelyn blushed.


    "You''re talking nonsense! Benjamin didn''te backst night."


    Vivian let it go. "Okay, okay. I just want to remind you to dress up well. We have a tough battle to fight


    tonight! Although we may not be in the teaching profession in the future, we can''t let that bitch smear


    our reputation."


    Madelyn was very touched.


    From the incident at home until now, Vivian had been with her all along. She said softly, "Thank you,


    Vivian."


    On the other end of the line, Vivian was biting on a long cigarette, coughing lightly, "Don''t be so cheesy!


    Babe, after you be sessful, don''t forget about me!"


    Madelynughed.


    After hanging up the phone, she remembered that Benjamin stood her up.


    Madelyn bit her lip as she held her phone and booked a whole set of tonic meals for Benjamin. She felt


    particrly good after doing something bad and rolled around on the bed several times.


    She didn''t do anything and just waited for Mr. rk''s feedback.


    About half an hourter, Benjamin sent a message.


    [I will let you know tonight whether I need this or not!]


    Madelyn looked at her phone, her face reddening.


    She lightly tapped out a few words.


    [We''ll see!]


    After sending the message, she didn''t pay any more attention to it. After eating something, she started


    soaking in the bathwater, exfoliating, washing her hair, and applying a face mask... Madelyn felt like


    she had never been so grand in her life.


    Madelyn walked into the dressing room wrapped in a bathrobe and chose a dark coffee-colored dress.


    The style was simple. The silk fabric hugged her body, with ayer of gauze draped over it.


    The dark coffee color contrasted beautifully with Madelyn''s fair skin, adding a touch of feminine charm.


    Madelyn blew her hair into loose curls and spent another half an hour doing her makeup.


    After finishing, she looked at herself in the mirror.


    She was even more beautiful than she imagined!


    Madelyn''s face was slightly red. She imagined herself in this outfit hugging and kissing Benjamin... Just


    thinking about it made her extremely excited!


    It was gettingte, so Madelyn prepared to take a taxi over.


    But as soon as she stepped outside, she saw a ck McLaren parked outside, with a pair of long legs


    leaning against the expensive car.


    ssic British suit.


    The leather shoes were shiny, not to mention that handsome and charming face.


    Madelyn was slightly stunned. Benjamin? Didn''t he say he was going directly to hotel?

    Chapter 77 Her Legs Are Prefect!


    Benjamin leaned against the car with azy smile and asked, "Are you looking enough?"


    Madelyn couldn''t take her eyes off him.


    He was so dazzlingly handsome that he formed a picture just by standing there.


    Benjamin stood up and walked towards her, looking down on her from above when they were two steps


    away.


    "Did you disappointst night?"


    His tone was surprisingly serious, and Madelyn blushed as she understood what he meant and wanted


    to cover it up.


    But Benjamin had already hugged her waist and hooked her to his side.


    Their bodies were rubbing against each other, and both of them easily felt the attraction.


    Benjamin leaned in next to her ear and whispered, "Your waist is so slim! The clothes look good on


    you."


    Then his gaze lightly swept over her fair and slender legs.


    As Madelyn sat in the car, she looked at Benjamin.


    He was already good-looking enough, but today he was even more eye-catching.


    Benjamin noticed her gaze and turned to look at her, his mouth curving into a smile as he said


    seriously, "Ms. Green, control yourself!"


    Madelyn blushed at his words.


    Benjamin leaned in and whispered softly in her ear, "Don''t get your skirt dirty, okay?"


    He was such a bastard!


    Madelyn turned her head away and said, "Just drive."


    Benjamin chuckled and gently stepped on the elerator...


    Twenty minutester, the ck sports car drove into the only six-star hotel in Gredax.


    The doorman recognized Benjamin and respectfully greeted him, "Mr. rk,ing for dinner?"


    Benjamin nodded reservedly.


    The car slowly pulled in, and he parked it at the hotel entrance. He unbuckled Madelyn''s seatbelt and


    said, "You have to walk a bit from the parking lot. Wait for me here!"


    Madelyn looked down at her high heels...


    Benjamin was so thoughtful that no woman could resist him.


    She was moved and leaned over to kiss him.


    Benjamin''s gaze was deep, and his voice was low as he said, "So urgent? This is the hotel entrance."


    Madelyn blushed in embarrassment.


    As she got out of the car, she said, "I''ll go first. You cane to the banquet hallter." Benjamin


    smiled and didn''t say yes or no.


    Madelyn looked at him driving away and regretted it a little. What if Benjamin ran away?


    Just then, Vivian came over. She hadn''t brought her husband with her and whispered to Madelyn after


    seeing her dress, "Benjamin''s probably going to break half his life on your legs!"


    Madelyn had just been teased by Benjamin.


    She was shy to react to Vivian''s joke about their rtionship. They were still "pure" with each other.


    Vivian didn''t know these private matters and only cared about one thing. "Where''s Benjamin?"


    Madelyn lightly teased her tea-colored long hair and said somewhat uneasily, "He went to park the car.


    Let''s go upstairs first."


    Vivian joked, "Great. You''re like an old married couple now." She couldn''t wait to see Elizabeth


    embarrassment and pulled Madelyn into the elevator.


    There was no one else in the elevator.


    Vivian couldn''t resist taking advantage and touched Madelyn''s legs, saying, "These legs are prefect!"


    Madelyn blushed and gave her a sidelong nce.


    Vivian just smiled.


    When the elevator reached the level of the banquet hall, the door opened, and they saw Elizabeth


    standing at the door of the hall.


    Tonight, she was wearing a tight red dress that was quite grand.


    Vivian joked, "It''s quite festive!"


    In a quick nce, she saw Daniel.


    He was sitting in the best position in the hall and had obviously seen them as well.


    A hint of surprise shed through his eyes.


    He had always known that Madelyn was beautiful, but tonight she was different from before, exuding a


    feminine charm that made men want to embrace her and do things with her.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Vivian whispered to Madelyn, "I bet Elizabeth arranged herself next to Daniel! She''s not giving up yet!


    She wants to beat you."


    Madelyn was speechless. She and Daniel had nothing to do with each other anymore, and Elizabeth


    had picked the wrong imaginary enemy.


    Moreover, she dressed up carefully tonight, not for Daniel but rather for Benjamin''s promise.


    He said that he would do it until the end tonight...

    Chapter 78 Benjamin: I Am Madelyn''s Boyfriend.


    Chapter 78 Benjamin: I Am Madelyn''s Boyfriend.


    Madelyn''s eyes glistened when she thought of Benjamin.


    She was at that age between being a girl and a woman, and once she fell in love, she was very


    captivating.


    Daniel sat there with a group of former ssmates around him.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    They all addressed him as Mr. Campbell and treated him with respect and ttery, including some


    beautiful women who were good at pleasing others. In the past, he might have been interested in


    ying around with them and rewarding them afterward.


    But now, Daniel didn''t find any of them attractivepared to Madelyn.


    He held his pre-dinner drink and sipped it absentmindedly while staring at Madelyn.


    Over there, Madelyn and Vivian paid their share of the money.


    Elizabeth took the money without ceremony and fake smiled. "I''m really sorry, Madelyn. Your family has


    fallen on hard times and still has to pay for this. Why don''t we split the cost?"


    Her voice was loud enough for everyone to hear, deliberately embarrassing Madelyn.


    Madelyn replied with a faint smile, "No need, I can afford it."


    Elizabeth counted the money and looked at Madelyn in surprise, "You paid for two people? Madelyn,


    are you really going to bring your old man to the reunion?"


    Before Madelyn could reply, Elizabeth covered her mouth and chuckled, "Looks like that uncle has a


    possessive streak!"


    The room fell silent.


    The old ssmates had various expressions on their faces.


    Madelyn used to be the most beautiful girl of Monatiz Academy of Music, from a middle-ss family.


    Who would have thought she would fall so far? Before, they didn''t believe what they saw on the


    campus forum, but now that Elizabeth confirmed it.


    It must be true!


    They either sympathized or ridiculed her, and some even avoided her. Those who used to sit with


    Madelyn had quietly requested to change seats.


    The rtionships were fickle and cold!


    Even the principals of Monatiz Academy of Music were secretly sighing that the world was not as pure


    as it was in school.


    Elizabeth looked at the atmosphere, and smiled with satisfaction.


    This was what she wanted!


    Who let Madelyn actually find an old man?


    Daniel frowned slightly. Elizabeth was too much. Who gave her the confidence to think she could bully


    Madelyn like this?


    When he was about to stand up, the elevator door slowly opened.


    Benjamin came out.


    Tall, handsome, and with a cool temperament.


    The banquet hall erupted in excitement. They couldn''t believe they were seeing the real Benjamin.


    "My god, he looks better than in magazines!"


    "That temperament, those legs, and that straight nose!"


    "... What is Benjamin doing here?"


    ...


    The principals of the School of Music and Geliville University had already stood up and greet to him,


    along with some parents with status.


    In Gredax, if someone befriended the rk family, they became rich!


    Although Benjamin was cold and aloof, but showing up before him would have its benefits. After all,


    familiarity breeds fondness!


    Unexpectedly, Benjamin was approachable today.


    He held back on smoking, politely declining the offered cigarette. "My girlfriend doesn''t like it."


    Ah!


    Girlfriend?


    Benjamin gently embraced Madelyn''s fragrant shoulders and smiled, "You don''t have to be so formal.


    We''re here to eat just like you guys! Madelyn doesn''t like me smoking at home."


    Everyone was stunned!


    Benjamin''s words contained too much information.


    Madelyn?


    The one who had been with the old man was actually Benjamin''s girlfriend!!


    The banquet hall fell silent for a long time.


    Benjamin wore a charming smile and called out Daniel, "Daniel, I''m dating Madelyn. It seems like you


    and your ssmates are surprised!"


    Daniel was stiff all over, unable to move.


    How ridiculous!


    He had just wanted to speak up for Madelyn, but she had already brought a bodyguard, and it turned


    out to be the most prestigious and powerful man in Gredax!


    Daniel lifted his ss and drank it all, then said with a faint smile, "A perfect match!"


    With that one sentence, all the men in the room extinguished their cigarettes. Because Mr. rk''s


    girlfriend didn''t like smoking...

 Chapter 79 Wow! This Is What They Call A Battlefield!

    Chapter 79 Wow! This Is What They Call A Battlefield!


    Chapter 79 Wow! This Is What They Call A Battlefield!


    Everyone put out their cigarettes at the same time.


    The scene made Madelyn feel embarrassed and annoyed.


    When did she ever forbid Benjamin from smoking? He smoked without any reservations at home, and


    sometimes even leaned against the headboard while doing so. When he was in the mood, he would


    even kiss her while smoking.


    He was shameless!


    But seeing so many people of high status before Benjamin, acting like dogs...Madelyn couldn''t help but


    feel a little proud.


    Benjamin had a charming smile on his lips. "Ms. Green, do you look presentable enough?"


    Madelyn knew that all the bad rumors would be dispelled on their own. There were plenty of people


    who would willingly rify things for her just to gain favor with Benjamin.


    But none of that mattered now. All she saw in her eyes was Benjamin.


    Benjamin hugged Madelyn and walked inside.


    The others had already given them the best seats in the house. Several school leaders looked at


    Madelyn affectionately. "Madelyn, take good care of Mr. rk."


    Madelyn smiled faintly!


    Afterward, people came up to toast them one by one. Benjamin could drink, but he chose his targets


    carefully.


    No one in this hall could make him drink. He politely declined the alcohol and reced with water, and


    chatted with people.


    Madelyn was used to taking care of him and naturally served him food.


    Vivian sat across from her, but instead of teasing Madelyn, she wanted to cry.


    That silly child finally got over it!


    Little stupid gild, you deserve to be happy!


    With Benjamin''s attitude, she believed that even if he didn''t marry Madelyn, things would still be fine for


    her in the future.


    The banquet hall was lively, but Elizabeth stood at the entrance.


    She was still in shock and felt hot all over her face. She had wanted to embarrass Madelyn, but ended


    up humiliating herself. The expensive dress she had bought seemed like a joke.


    Madelyn was with Benjamin!


    Why?


    How was Elizabeth any worse than Madelyn?


    Jealousy distorted Elizabeth''s mind. She held a ss of red wine and walked over to Benjamin and


    Madelyn.


    She smiled coyly and wanted to toast Benjamin.


    "Mr. rk, I''m Madelyn''s college ssmate. Nice to meet you."


    Benjamin was enjoying Madelyn''s care when Elizabeth approached. He looked up and immediately


    guessed her identity. Wasn''t she Daniel''s lover?!


    Benjamin wiped his hands with a napkin and spoke slowly. Being born into a prestigious family made


    him different; every finger looked like a work of art.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin dropped his napkin and suddenly looked at Madelyn next to him, looking very respectful.


    "Would it upset you we know each other?" he asked while looking at Madelyn next to him.


    This embarrassed Elizabeth.


    The people around them all looked on with ambiguous gazes. Many knew about Elizabeth''s intimate


    rtionship with Daniel because Daniel didn''t avoid being seen with her. It was clear he didn''t take her


    seriously.


    Elizabeth was also cunning, daring to publicly flirt with Benjamin.


    Madelyn was right there!


    Madelyn always knew about Benjamin''s bad personality, so she didn''t fall for it. "That''s your freedom."


    she said.


    Benjamin pinched her cheek and let her go.


    Then he stood up and politely said to Elizabeth, "Ms. Dn, I''ll take this drink."


    Everyone was surprised.


    Was Mr. rk''s taste really that bad?


    Benjamin had a charming smile on his lips as he said, "But I drove here tonight and will be taking


    Madelyn hometer. Daniel...you brought your driver, right? You can drink this instead of me with Ms.


    Dn."

    Chapter 80 Madelyn Is Unable to Drink, So I''ll Drink for Her!


    After Benjamin finished speaking, the whole room fell silent.


    Mr. rk knew about Daniel and Elizabeth''s rtionship, and now it was obvious that he was showing


    his power.


    Ha!


    Truly worthy of being called the King of the Legal World!


    In the midst of everyone''s gaze, Daniel stood up.


    Not only was he the rk family''s future son-inw, but with just one word from Benjamin, he could


    make the Campbell Group suffer. He had to stand up.


    Daniel was not only ruthless, but also flexible.


    He held up his ss and lightly touched Elizabeth''s, then tilted his head back and downed the entire

    Elizabeth didn''t even react.


    Daniel ignored her and stood tall next to Madelyn, pouring himself a drink and then pouring Madelyn a


    ss as well. He raised his ss and said, "Big brother has to drive, so I''ll toast to my future sister-in-


    Madelyn didn''t expect Daniel to embarrass her like this.


    Was he crazy or sick?


    Vivian couldn''t stand it any longer and shouted, "Daniel, you want to drink, right? I''ll drink with you."


    Daniel held her shoulder, preventing her from standing up.


    "Ms. White! I''m talking to Madelyn!"


    The scene was quiet, and everyone knew that Madelyn had chased after Daniel for four years when


    she was young. At this moment, Daniel''s attitude was clearly making things difficult for her, and no one


    dared to say anything more.


    Madelyn''s body stiffened!

    A burst of lightughter...


    Benjamin gently ced one hand on Madelyn''s chair back, smiling elegantly and amiably.


    He asked her gently, "Can you drive?"


    Madelyn nodded inexplicably, and then her hand was held by him.


    Benjamin stood up again and smiled at Daniel, "Madelyn is unable to drink, so I''ll drink for her!"


    He had just spoken when others began to whisper.


    Elizabeth had just toasted him and he said he would drive, and now he could drink?


    It was double standard!


    Benjamin did this but showed no signs of embarrassment. He picked up Madelyn''s ss and elegantly


    drank a ss of red wine, while Daniel held his ss and his fingers turned white.


    He gave a cold smile. He wondered. How far had theye!


    His mood was bad, so he downed the whole ss.


    After drinking, he swept his gaze over Madelyn with a hint of lingering affection in his eyes.


    Madelyn dare not meet his gaze, afraid that Benjamin would punish her.


    Benjamin smiled lightly.


    He was already outstanding in appearance, and when he smiled, there was a faint dimple, which was


    very charming.


    The women present were enchanted by him, and they all wanted to chat with Mr. rk, especially


    those students'' parents. They hoped to find a way to benefit their husbands.


    But Benjamin didn''t care about them at all. He only treated Madelyn tenderly, and towards others, he


    was like a moon high in the sky, only to be admired from far.


    The atmosphere became lively again, and people came over to toast, but no one dared to make


    Benjamin drink more than they could handle. However, they didn''t expect Benjamin to break the rules


    and drink several more sses.


    Madelyn served him food and said softly, "Eat some and you would feel less ufortable."


    Benjamin looked at her deeply, and perhaps due to the alcohol, Madelyn felt that his gaze was


    different. Her face flushed slightly.


    Benjamin squeezed her hand under the table.


    His voice was hoarse, "We will leaveter, okay?"


    Madelyn saw the lust in his eyes and lightly bit her lip. She couldn''t believe that he could flirt with her in


    public, but she couldn''t refuse Benjamin.


    She didn''t say yes or no.


    Benjamin smiled and stood up, saying goodbye to several principals of Monatiz Academy of Music and


    said a few beautiful words, making the leaders feel ttered. Madelyn watched him effortlessly interact


    with everyone.


    She thought: whose ss reunion is this?


    At that moment, Elizabeth came over, still wearing the tight-fitting dress that showed off her figure.


    Her face was flushed, and her voice was sultry.


    "Mr. rk is leaving?"


    Madelyn was next to Benjamin and heard everything.


    She admired Elizabeth''s ability to be shameless and seduce men. She couldn''t help but look at


    Benjamin and wonder if he would be attracted to Elizabeth...

 Chapter 81 Kissing in the Car

    Chapter 81 Kissing in the Car


    Chapter 81 Kissing in the Car


    Benjamin didn''t say anything.


    However, Elizabeth didn''t want to give up such a chance. She was eager to show off her connections


    and said to the principals, acting as if she was a regr. "I''m acquainted with the restaurant managers,


    and they agreed to give me a 5% discount."


    The principals praised her for her connections.


    Elizabeth looked at Benjamin and continued, "This six-star hotel doesn''t give discounts unless the


    customer has strong connections."


    Being watched by their surprised eyes, Elizabeth thought that Benjamin was going to look at her


    differently.


    She was very pleased with herself.


    Humph! How could Madelyn rival her except for the appearance?


    Just then, a man''s low, rumbling voice rang out from the door of the hall, "Benjamin, there you are!"


    It was Jonathan, the president of this hotel.


    Jonathan dly shook Benjamin''s hand, and his tone was friendly, "I heard from my men that you are


    over for dinner. I can''t believe a big shot like you woulde to my humble ce. I came to check it


    out. It was really you!"


    Benjamin smiled politely. "Mr. Hunter, you''re being modest!"


    "Benjamin, don''t call me Mr. Hunter, or I''ll feel I''m being treated as a stranger! We''ve known each other


    for a long time."


    Jonathan was keen-eyed and saw Madelyn.


    Benjamin introduced him to Madelyn. "My girlfriend Madelyn, I apany her to the ss reunion."


    Jonathan took a bow and gave Madelyn a gentle handshake.


    He was a honey-lipped businessman. "Madelyn is not only beautiful but also very ssy."


    Madelyn was graceful and demure.


    Jonathan was in Benjamin''s debt. Benjamin fought awsuit for Jonathan and saved his life. Jonathan


    wanted to return the favor and said, "This is my first time seeing Madelyn. I did not prepare any gifts.


    You get to drink and eat for free today."


    The meal at least cost 100 thousand dors. Jonathan didn''t charge them.


    Madelyn didn''t feel good about this. She didn''t want Benjamin to owe Jonathan.


    But Benjamin epted graciously, put his arm around Madelyn''s shoulder, and smiled, "Thank you for


    your hospitality. I''d like to buy you dinner sometime."


    When Benjamin had to leave, Jonathan waspletely understanding because he was a man who


    had done the same thing before.


    Heh, heh! It was all about sex right here!


    He personally escorted Benjamin into the elevator and down the stairs...


    Inside the ballroom.


    Everyone was silent. Elizabeth was particrly embarrassed. She went to extraordinary lengths to


    butter Benjamin up, but Madelyn got everything Elizabeth wanted without breaking a sweat. Elizabeth


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    felt like a clown!


    Elizabeth took the bottle of wine and poured herself a drink.


    She forced a smile. "A bottle of wine is worth almost ten thousand dors. We can drink for free for


    Madelyn''s sake!"


    With that, she looked at Daniel with red eyes.


    Daniel turned around and walked away.


    Elizabeth was drunk and shouted at his back, "Daniel, you bastard... I love you. I love you more than


    Madelyn did!"


    Daniel turned around and sneered, "Your love is too cheap!"


    Elizabeth was bawling.


    It was very embarrassing. Who at the reunion could have imagined it would end like this?


    ...


    Madelyn followed Benjamin to the underground parking lot.


    She sat in the driver''s seat and took off her high heels while whispering, "I should have brought a pair


    of t shoes with me."


    Madelyn''s legs and insteps were beautiful both in shape and color.


    Benjamin leaned back in his seat and stared at her. Madelyn got butterflies in her stomach and


    blushed.


    He whispered, "How can you drive with bare feet? Why don''t we get a room upstairs?"


    Madelyn had never had sex before and was such a prude. She took his face in her hands and said


    softly, "Let''s get a designated driver."


    Benjamin didn''t say anything, and his brown eyes were alluring.


    Mere momentster, he reached down and held her in his arms...


    Madelyn lightly punched him. "We''re in a parking lot."


    "Thest time we kissed in the parking lot, you clung to me and didn''t let go." His tall nose was against


    her face, and his breath was warm and got mixed up with hers.


    Seeing that he got turned on, Madelyn didn''t push him away.


    He was very different from his usual self after drinking. He... He just let himself be ovee by


    absolute erotic pleasure!


    He was such a marvelous kisser that Madelyn went limp in his arms after only a few kisses. She took


    his handsome face in her hands and kissed him madly. The passion grew in the car...

 Chapter 82 Benjamin, Be Gentle With Me

    Chapter 82 Benjamin, Be Gentle With Me


    Chapter 82 Benjamin, Be Gentle With Me


    Benjamin was tempted by lust and said dully as his lips rested against Madelyn''s forehead, "I''ll have


    Jonathan send a car for us."


    Madelyn gently bit her lips.


    Benjamin became a beast after he had some drinks...


    Jonathan was solid and quickly sent his trusted driver to take them safely to the apartment.


    Benjamin held back his sexual desire so long that he kissed Madelyn as soon as they got into the


    elevator. When they got home and Madelyn was changing into her slippers, he hugged her around the


    waist from behind and nibbled on her earlobe. "You look fine in this outfit."


    Madelyn was astounded.


    She thought she should go to take a shower and get herself cleaned up.


    Benjamin carried her in his arms and kissed her with one hand pulling off her high heels. He was so


    aggressive and charming when he was fueled by sexual passion, that Madelyn couldn''t break out of his


    arms...


    She wrapped her arms around his neck, and her eyes were wild and tempting with passion.


    "Benjamin, be gentle with me."


    He was amorous in bed, and Madelyn was so cooperative that he had no qualms about indulging in the


    pleasures of sex.


    Until...


    Benjamin was surprised that it was the first time Madeleine made love.


    Although she and Daniel had been in a rtionship for four years, she hadn''t had sex with him.


    Benjamin did not have an obsession with virginity, but he was enchanted when the woman who made


    love to him was a virgin. He kissed Madelyn gingerly and said in a gentle voice, "I didn''t know about it.


    Madelyn, you should have told me."


    Otherwise, he would have been much gentler to her.


    Madelyn blushed and turned her face away.


    Benjamin loved her innocent and bashful look. They only made love twice...


    ...


    They kissed passionately in the hotel parking lot this morning. Daniel was sitting in a ck car not far


    away.


    Daniel watched them for a long time.


    Although Daniel was very hurt when he saw Madelyn and Benjamin kissing each other, he did not stop


    himself from watching. Never stopped. He even noticed that Madelyn initiated the kiss on Benjamin''s


    chin... He could see clearly every change in her expression!


    Madelyn was fond of Benjamin!


    Daniel''s face turned pale.


    The driver held the steering wheel in the front seat, scarce daring to breathe. Daniel whispered, "Drive!"


    Only then did the driver breathe a sigh of relief. He slowly drove the car out of the parking lot. He drove


    the car some distance away before he dared to ask. "Mr. Campbell, where are you going?"


    Feeling so lost, Daniel said, "The clubhouse!"


    The driver was his trusted subordinate and knew which club Mr. Campbell often went to, so he spun his


    car around...


    Daniel had been drinking at the party.


    He was still drunk. When he arrived at the private room at the clubhouse, he asked Caroline toe


    over to keep himpany.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Caroline loved Daniel very much. Who wouldn''t adore a handsome and generous man? Caroline


    leaned over, drank with him, and sang some love songs. But Daniel didn''t need that. He wanted a


    woman to take the edge off his resentment toward Madelyn.


    Yes, resentment!


    Caroline, who closely resembled Madelyn, became the target of his wrath. He was not gentle at all,


    tormenting the girl in his arms as he buried his face in her neck and said huskily, "How am I inferior to


    him? Did you give him all your love? Madelyn, tell me! You tell me!"


    Probably because he was so crazy, the girl cried out in fear.


    Her small body trembled. "Mr. Campbell, I''m not Madelyn... I''m Caroline."


    Daniel opened his droopy eyes, intoxicated.


    His eyes were scarlet and a little scary.


    The girl in his arms was charming, but she was not Madelyn.


    Madelyn was in full flow. How could possibly she have that pitiful expression on her face? Daniel gritted


    his teeth in hatred. He wanted to continue, but he couldn''t ept other women physically or


    emotionally.


    Even if she looked exactly like Madelyn.


    Daniel rolled over to one side, slumped on the sofa, and closed his eyes. "You go out. I want to be


    quiet."

    Chapter 83 Madelyn, Please Love Me Again


    Chapter 83 Madelyn, Please Love Me Again


    Caroline stared at Daniel.


    Daniel put his elbow out over his eyes, and his voice was husky. "Get out!"


    He was a mess!


    He looked such a mess!


    How could he get to this point?


    Caroline''s small face was still wet with tears. She got dressed slowly.


    When she got up from the sofa, her legs were shaking, and she could barely stand on her feet.


    However, she didn''t dare to stay and upset him. She was trying very hard to be strong right now and


    walked out of the private room.


    As soon as she had only just closed the door, the sound of breaking ss rang out from inside.


    There were cries like those of wounded animals!


    To her surprise, a rough-and-tumble man had an affectionate side. The girl named Madelyn must be


    very happy because she was loved by Mr. Campbell...


    The manager heard themotion and scolded Caroline when he saw her. "How dare you piss Mr.


    Campbell off?"


    Caroline bit her lip, which almost bled.


    She folded her arms around her body as if she could protect herself like this. She said in a trembling


    voice, "Mr. Campbell took me for someone else. When I said I was not the woman he was calling out


    for, he red up all at once."


    The manager was impatient.


    He looked at the door panel and taught her a lesson. "It''s no big deal! Even if he treats you like a piece


    of garlic, you have to put up with it and praise Mr. Campbell for having an incredible eye, not to mention


    he mistook you for another woman! You''re here to earn money, so you have to make your customers


    happy!"


    Caroline bowed her head, not daring to retort upon the manager.


    Content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    The manager originally wanted her to make amends to Daniel. But now a customer asked Caroline to


    drink with him. The manager couldn''t offend the big shots, so he let Caroline go with the customer.


    After that, the manager went to make amends to Daniel.


    He opened the door and found that the smell of alcohol inside was overwhelming!


    The floor was full of ss crumbs. All that fell on the floor were bottles of great imported wine... These


    were all wasted out here, which made the manager sick!


    Daniel opened two more bottles of wine.


    When he saw the managering, he raised his eyes, picked up the mug, and drank it straight down


    in one.


    The manager poured Daniel wine and talked considerately to him.


    "Mr. Campbell, it''s not worth it to destroy your body with liquor for a woman!"


    Daniel squinted at the manager. "Who said that?"


    The manager had a ss of wine with him. "Mr. Campbell has never pined for any women before!"


    Something urred to Daniel.


    The manager was right!


    Daniel had never been upset by a woman before. Even in the years he had been dating Madelyn, he


    had always been sleeping with other women. He always got his biological imperative fulfilled before


    One peck could make Madelyn happy for a long time.


    Daniel lowered his head and lit a cigarette.


    He exhaled smoke and asked the manager, "If a woman sleeps with a man, will she be more


    The managerughed disapprovingly.


    "Well, Mr. Campbell, what century is this? How can you be so pure and innocent? Making love is as


    simple andmon as eating and drinking coffee! The point is whether they have feelings for each


    other. Just like Caroline, she is innocent and young. Weren''t you pleased with herst time? You''re


    bigger than that. Give her a break."


    Daniel had forgotten about Caroline. Since the manager brought her him up, Daniel asked, "Where is


    she?"


    He remembered she was very attractive when she was crying!


    The manager saw that he was still interested in Caroline, coughing lightly. "She went to another room.


    If Mr. Caroline likes her, I will let her drink with you next time."


    Daniel did not say anything.


    He was in a bad mood and continued to drink. He got loaded in the end.


    He was drunk, and all he could think about was Madelyn sitting on Benjamin''sp and kissing him. Her


    kiss was tentative and passionate, which made Daniel mad!


    He was drunk, but it was like a fire burning inside him.


    He even wanted to rush to Benjamin''s house and drag Madelyn out. He wanted to tell her that he


    regretted it and that he could give up the power the rk family gave him. And he would no longer


    mess with other women--


    He just wanted her to fall in love with him again!


    Only when he was so drunk did he know the days when he was loved by Madelyn were the happiest of


    his life...

    Chapter 84 Mr. Campbell, Shall I Ask Mr. rk To Bail You Out


    Daniel was severely inebriated and staggered out.


    He happened to pass by Caroline''s private box. The door was left cracked, and he could see inside.


    Caroline was sitting in the arms of a rich young man and tamely let the man kiss her. That guy was a


    womanizer. He kissed her so much that her body trembled.


    He had a side-angle view of Caroline and found that she looked like Madelyn.


    Daniel was drunk and messed up, so he mistook Caroline for Madelyn.


    He was so jealous and angry that his eyes turned red--


    Madelyn was kissing another man and might be going to have sex with that guy. The wine went straight


    to Daniel''s head, and he was so angry that his blood was pumping and kicked the door open. Then


    there was a scream in the room...


    Daniel grabbed the weak guy by the cor and punched him.


    "How dare you hold Madelyn!"


    "Madelyn is mine."


    "She''s my wife!"


    ...


    The rich man was dumbfounded when he got beat up for no reason. Then he got mad and kicked


    Daniel. "What the hell is wrong with you? How did your wife end up in a ce like this? Are you so


    pathetic as to let your wife make money in a ce like this to support you, a deadbeat?"


    Daniel was irritated and punched him hard.


    Caroline was so scared that she cried and screamed.


    The manager heard the noise and came over to check it out. He was flummoxed by what was right in


    front of his eyes!


    The manager had just talked to Mr. Campbell for a long time. Why hadn''t Mr. Campbell gotten over it


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    yet? He was crazier than ever!


    The manager tried to get between them and took a few hits.


    Finally, it was security who controlled Daniel who was being crazy. That rich guy wiped the blood from


    the corner of his mouth and said in a cold voice, "I''ll kill you !"


    Daniel just sneered.


    "You don''t scare me, kid! Let''s see who will get killed first!"


    They wrestled with each other again, and there was a great big spurt of blood... The manager covered


    his face and wailed.


    Okay! The manager stopped trying to intervene. He would be the peacemaker when they were tired


    out.


    That rich man had never been so damned!


    He would never settle.


    He looked at Daniel with a sneer. "Go to the police station, son of bitch! Shame on you for being


    jealous because of a bar girl!"


    No matter what the manager said, the rich guy still called the police.


    In the deep of night.


    Daniel sat on a bench in the police station, where the head knew him.


    God!


    Wasn''t he the brother-inw of the King of Hell in the legal profession?


    He fought for a womanst time. And he did the same now... Even though he had a fiancee, he still


    fooled around with other women. There was no man in this world who did not cheat.


    The head showed Daniel some respect and handed him a cigarette.


    "Mr. Campbell, it is your second time here, isn''t it?"


    Daniel lit a cigarette, and his mind was clear. He nced at the rich guy next to him.


    There was contempt in Daniel!


    Why did he fight a little piece of trash?


    The head sat in front of Daniel and said seriously, "Mr. Campbell, what''s it got to do with you if they


    kissed and cuddled? Do you like going to the police station that much? Hey... If there were more people


    like you in our district, we wouldn''t need to spend all day on the streets arresting those who break the


    They were acquaintances. It was easy to deal with it.


    The head wrote a note and kindly asked, "Shall I ask Mr. rk to bail you out?"


    In the first ce, Daniel didn''t hesitate to refuse, but he suddenly remembered that Benjamin was


    sleeping with Madelyn. If Benjamin was called over... He must be unhappy!


    Daniel blew smoke rings.


    "Okay!"


    The head shook his head and smiled, "Mr. Campbell, as the rk family''s son-inw, you more or less


    should protect your reputation. You''ll not be forgiven every time you do something like this."


    Protect his reputation?


    Daniel was in a trance.


    Power was what he always wanted, wasn''t it? Why did he lose his mind and even want to give up


    everything for Madelyn recently?


    But alcohol now overcame reason.


    He took a fierce puff of smoke. "Call him!"


    The rich young man on the side finally guessed Daniel''s identity. He cursed again after thinking back on


    this. "Damn it! What is wrong with you? You didn''t spend time with your beautiful fiancee but fought me


    at the club. Have you lost your mind?"


    Daniel was at a loss.


    He didn''t know exactly why he had done such a thing...

    Benjamin had just had sex with Madelyn before he got the call.


    Madelyn was knackered, but Benjamin had not had enough. He put his arms around her waist and


    flirted with her.


    Madelyn could not stand it and bit her lip. "You... Stop it. I want to take a bath!"


    Benjamin was considerate.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    He said gently against her ear, "I''ll run you a bath."


    Madelyn''s ears were light pink with some fluff, looking cute. Benjamin couldn''t resist reaching out and


    gently touching them.


    Madelyn pulled up the nket to cover her face. She didn''t want him to touch her.


    "Are you shy? Who was holding on to me just now and wouldn''t let go?" Benjamin put his arms around


    her and then yanked her out of the covers.


    He wanted to tease her again...


    Madelyn pleaded softly, "I don''t feel well. Let me take a bath."


    Benjamin gave a deepugh. "Why are you so scared?" He ruffled her long and sweaty hair and kissed


    her on the forehead. Finally, he let her go, threw back the covers, and got up.


    Benjamin was built, but Madelyn didn''t dare to look at him.


    The sound of water running came from the bathroom.


    About five minutester, Benjamin came back to the bedroom and reached out to carry Madelyn in his


    arms. Madelyn, who was wrapping the towel around herself, blushed. "I''ll walk by myself."


    Benjamin just let her.


    She went for a bath. He took a quick shower in the shower room out there.


    Back in the bedroom, Benjamin rxedly leaned back on the bed and lit a cigarette, blowing smoke


    rings slowly... Thetest case was almost settled, and he indulged himself in the pleasures of the flesh.


    At this moment, the phone on the bedside table rang.


    Benjamin frowned. Who was calling him at thiste hour?


    He put his cigarette in his mouth, pressed the answer button, and murmured, "This is Benjamin."


    The other side of the phone was Charles, the policeman.


    Charles was very friendly. "Mr. rk, you''re still up. I''m sorry for interrupting your nightlife... Your


    brother-inw-to-be is involved in a dispute. Are you free toe over?"


    Daniel?


    Benjamin puffed at the cigarette in a leisurely manner...


    He sounded a bit indifferent, "Since you know I''m enjoying my nightlife, why do you want me toe


    over? I''m not Daniel''s guardian!"


    Charles spoke cautiously, "Mr. Campbell fought for a woman at the clubhouse. If you don''te over,


    shall we ask Ms. rk toe over and take care of it?"


    Benjamin gave a light snort.


    He continued to smoke in a slow and deliberate way. His cheeks sunk deep as he took a long pull on


    his cigarette, looking sexy as hell.


    Charles did not know what was on Benjamin''s mind.


    He waited with bated breath and did not dare to rush Benjamin.


    After a long time, Benjamin gave a little chuckle. "Mr. Campbell asked me toe, right?"


    Charles was stunned.


    Shit! God!


    He was not at liberty to butt in on their family affairs, so he could only smile.


    "All right, I''ll be right there."


    Benjamin hung up the phone and got up to change his clothes. He knocked on the ss door to the


    bathroom. "I''m going out to take care of something. Go to sleep. Don''t wait up for me."


    Madelyn couldn''t help but feel a bit frustrated.


    He was leaving tonight.


    Benjamin could imagine what she was thinking. He stepped on the wet floor to the edge of the bathtub


    and squatted down. He reached out his big hands into the water... Madelyn blushed and grabbed his


    arm to stop him from doing anything.


    "It''s business all right! I''ll be back in a little while." His voice was surprisingly husky.


    Madelyn was upset to see him go.


    She put her arms around his neck and kissed him boldly...


    Benjamin kissed her for a while, and murmured against her red lips, "I''ve just changed my clothes, and


    you''ve gotten me wet again..."


    Madelyn blushed fiercely.


    Benjamin was in a good mood, straightened his clothes, and left.


    He rushed to the police station.


    Charles weed him perkily and greeted him cordially, "Mr. rk, I''m sorry to get you out of bed and


    He gave a thumbs up. "It''s two in the morning. Young people are really invigorated."

    Benjamin managed a small smile. "Where''s Mr. Campbell?"


    Charles tilted his chin slightly. "Don''t worry. He is well taken care of."


    Benjamin strode into the room.


    A lively scene was enacted there with several people sitting inside.


    The rich young man was tucking into a cup of ramen and making yummy noises.


    The manager and Caroline sat in silence. The girl, wearing a suit over a ck camisole, was shivering


    all over. Hearing footsteps, she looked up and then froze.


    She had never seen such a gorgeous man of great charm!


    His dignified manner was in marked contrast to her incredibly messy state. She felt so bad as if she did


    not deserve to appear in front of him...


    Benjamin''s eyes fell on her face.


    Her face resembled Madelyn''s. Benjamin immediately figured out what was going on.


    Benjamin looked at Daniel with a sneer.


    Daniel met Benjamin''s gaze, a touch of imperceptible defiance surfacing under his brown eyes. This


    subtle expression might be lost on the people around him, but not on Benjamin.


    Benjamin did not mind but snickered faintly.


    "Charles!" Benjamin spoke, "What formalities do I need to do?"


    Charles already had a receipt ready.


    "Mr. rk, please sign and pay."


    Benjamin shot a nce at it and then said, "I''m gonna bail them all out. As for what happened


    tonight..."


    Charles took his hint.


    Rich families feared it most when they were enmeshed in a scandal especially caused by a


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    troublesome, phndering son-inw. Charles immediately reacted with a knowing smile, "Mr. rk,


    rest assured, this matter will be over here."


    Benjamin was whisked through the formalities.


    The rich boy yelled, "Who asked him to do it? I don''t want to owe him a fucking favor."


    Charles was hurling abuse.


    Benjamin raised his hand, took out his phone, and said carelessly, "Fine, I''ll call Mr. Nn toe and


    get you! And he''ll know what his good son does!"


    The rich boy''s face flushed red.


    Damn it, this guy even knew his dad!


    Seeing that the rich boy stopped yelling, Benjamin strode out of the police station without giving him a


    hard time.


    Charles kissed the check and waved enthusiastically. "Mr. rk, see you next time."


    Benjamin did not respond.


    Getting in the car, Benjamin lit a cigarette and took a long drag on it.


    Daniel approached over.


    Benjamin said, "Get in."


    Daniel seemed to know this. His lips curved up at the corners as he opened the door and got in the car.


    Later, Benjamin started the car. The luxury car was high-performance and elerated fast. A wave of


    nausea swept over Daniel, who drank a lot of wine just now. He suspected that Benjamin was doing


    this on purpose.


    The car drove past at a dizzying speed, and the shining street lights shed past the windows.


    Neither of them spoke inside the car.


    About half an hour, Benjamin pulled over at a beach. It was deathly silent. All they could hear was the


    tidepping at the shore...


    "Get out of the car." Benjamin''s voice was cold.


    Daniel sneered, he followed Benjamin out of the car.


    As soon as he got out of the car, Benjamin took off his jacket, unbuttoned his shirt a little bit, and struck


    a blow at Daniel without saying a word.


    Benjamin took a swing at Daniel, who was knocked back several steps then.


    He steadied himself and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.


    Benjamin kicked him again, "Daniel, you really think no one in the rk family can handle you, don''t


    you? If you didn''t like Eloise, you shouldn''t have tantalized her in the first ce. She likes you so much.


    Do you take pride in watching her kill herself for you?"


    Daniel was kicked to the ground.


    He covered his stomach in pain, but he managed to squeeze out a smile.


    "I''m the jerk! I''m sorry!"


    "What about you, Benjamin? Don''t you know what I am? Why did you marry your sister to me? You''re


    no better than me."


    "You know that Madelyn is my past girlfriend. Why do you mess around with her?"


    Daniel''s eyes were scarlet...

    Chapter 87 Regret It Now? You Just Find That You Love Her?


    Chapter 87 Regret It Now? You Just Find That You Love Her?


    Benjamin sneered, "Let me tell you why then!"


    He was standing in the whistling night wind.


    With his white clothes and ck hair, he got a perfect set of sharp features as Apollo.


    Benjamin looked at Daniel condescendingly and uttered a snortingugh, "Regret it now? You just find


    that you love Madelyn and couldn''t leave her until she is with me? Well, Daniel... it''s your own choice


    throughout, like, you set the traps for Samuel early on and you seduced her deliberately... It''s not that


    you have no chance to repent, but that you choose the power over her again and again!"


    Daniel tottered to his feet and his face turned pale.


    Benjamin sneered, "You gave up on her yourself! And you sent her to me with your own hands!"


    Daniel''s lips began to tremble and he started to shake even. He just couldn''t control it even though he


    wanted to.


    Benjamin stared at him and gave a brittleugh again, "Just put away your loverly look, Daniel! What


    have you done?"


    Suddenly, Daniel kept his eyes fixed on Benjamin.


    He found that there were many faint hickey marks on the side of Benjamin''s neck... Obviously, the


    marks could only be made after a long time of kissing.


    Daniel''s Adam''s apple bobbed.


    He couldn''t help thinking how many times they had sex tonight.


    Benjamin followed Daniel''s gaze and looked down.


    Madelyn felt something when they made love tonight. She justy on his shoulder and nibbled lightly...


    Both of them were rather emotional at the moment and even the air in the bedroom seemed to be full of


    love.


    But Benjamin was not someone shameless. He didn''t mention any details!


    Although he just had a temporary rtionship with Madelyn, he had no intention of looking down upon


    her. Especially, to a certain extent, he liked her temperament, cooking skills and her body! He just liked


    everything about her!


    Benjamin stamped out the cigarette butt.


    He said to Daniel, "I have limited tolerance! You should be d that Eloise still likes you, otherwise you


    should have been put in jail for what you have done."


    Danielughed lightly as he heard that.


    He seemed to figure something out suddenly, "Thank you for your teaching! I will be a good husband


    and I won''t wrong her and let her shed a single tear."


    Benjamin had seen all kinds of ruthless people before, but Daniel was really something!


    He was desperate just now while he changed his look at the moment.


    What a tough and heartless man indeed!


    Benjamin didn''t want to tangle with him any longer and his phone just rang at the moment. It was


    Madelyn.


    He answered the phone in the presence of Daniel.


    "Right. I''ll be back in a while."


    "It is almost settled... Why do you still wait for me? Well, I have told you to sleep first, haven''t I? Want to


    continue it with me, huh?"


    ...


    Benjamin didn''t hide his desire at all and flirted with Madelyn in the presence of Daniel.


    And he turned on the speaker.


    Madelyn''s voice was soft, "Can we do it again tomorrow night, Benjamin?"


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Daniel stiffened up as he heard that. He clenched his fists so hard that his finger bones would almost


    broke.


    Benjamin drove the car away.


    Daniel was still standing by the sea, motionless.


    The sea breeze just blew away those words that Madelyn had said which were engraved in his heart


    instead.


    She said she wanted to sleep with Benjamin tomorrow night...


    And she didn''t force herself to say so at all. Instead, she said that in a rather sweet voice, as if she had


    done it thoroughly with Benjamin not long ago.


    Something warm slid across Daniel''s cheek.


    He stretched out his hand to touch it, realizing that it was his tear.


    How could he shed tears? Nonsense. What a big joke.


    It was just a woman. How could she make him cry?


    Love? Everyone had loved a few people before...

    Chapter 88 Praise A Man Like That? Aren''t You Ashamed?


    It was already three o''clock in the morning when Benjamin came back to the apartment.


    As he opened the door, warm yellow light just poured out from the bedroom, making the cold and


    luxurious decoration rather warm.


    He walked into the bedroom.


    Madelyn slept lightly. She woke up as he just came in. She sat up and leaned against the bed, saying


    with a unique and slightly hoarse voice as she was just awake, "Any midnight snack?"


    "It''s toote now and don''t bother yourself! I''m going to take a shower."


    Madelyn felt it rather strange. Didn''t he just take a bath before going out?


    Did he...


    Seeing her rather bright eyes, he leaned over and kissed her, "What are you thinking? You think I have


    the energy to find someone else, don''t you? Well, you just fascinate me beyond measure."


    She blushed, feeling that it was improper to ask him more about it.


    He took off his clothes and went into the bathroom. He just threw his white shirt on the ground. She put


    it into theundry basket and decided to wash it by hand the next day...


    Suddenly, her eyes froze.


    The shirt was stained with blood and she could smell it faintly.


    She looked towards the bathroom and frowned...


    Did he go out sote and fight with someone?


    Madelyn was not a fool. Immediately, she thought of Daniel''s gaffe tonight and guessed that it might be


    him.


    She put down the shirt gently andy back on the bed.


    As he came out, she found that he was wearing a ck bathrobe and that the damp was all over him.


    He held her from behind and yed with her body slowly. He supported her head with one hand and


    kissed her. She didn''t feel well with her neck at the moment. However, she just behaved nicely and let


    him kiss her, as no one knew whether she did it out of guilty conscience...


    She felt that he was not in a good mood!


    As he almost became randy, he pinned against her and his eyes were as ck as ink.


    He did nothing but kept his gaze fixed on her.


    Madelyn stared at his lined face fascinatedly and stretched out her fingers to caress his tall nose and


    well-defined chin. She blushed and said softly, "You are so handsome, Benjamin."


    He was taken aback for a moment.


    And then heughed, "How can a woman praise a man like that? Aren''t you ashamed?"


    She arched her body slightly and leaned over to kiss his lips. Her light touch was rather seductive.


    She became a real woman tonight.


    It was Benjamin who brought her that fun.


    He was moved and then he lowered his head to kiss her, in a rather gentle way...


    After a long time, hey down and pulled her into his arms. He sighed softly and said, "Let''s sleep


    then."


    Madelyn nestled up against him and her face was close to his shoulder. She held his waist with one


    hand and just closed her eyes wildly... But he looked at her for a long time in the dark.


    He found her heavy cupid face which was not tacky at all. She got good features, looking gorgeous


    although she wore no makeup.


    No wonder Daniel couldn''t let go. If it were him... he might not be able to give up easily.


    Madelyn woke up early in the morning.


    She was alone on the bed, but there was a white rose beside her pillow with fresh dews dripping on the


    petals. She felt happy as she saw it.


    She turned sideways and picked up the flower to smell it. She held it and rolled about on the bed.


    She blushed because she remembered what had happenedst night.


    Although it was her first time and she had never had sex with a man before, she felt that Benjamin was


    pretty good at it and that he had more desire than ordinary man did. After doing it twicest night, to


    her surprise, he had no need to take a break and wanted to move on...


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    As she was mature, she wouldn''t think hypocritically that having sex with a man was a pain.


    On the contrary, she also enjoyed it.


    There was a slight sound outside at the moment. She heard the knock and ire said enthusiastically,


    "Ms. Green, Mr. rk gave you a gift. Please get up and have a look."


    Madelyn bit her lips lightly...


    Oh, Benjamin sent a gift to her?

 Chapter 89 You Are My Morning Dew

    Chapter 89 You Are My Morning Dew


    Chapter 89 You Are My Morning Dew


    Madelyn couldn''t wait to watch it.


    She wore her long brown hair loose and ran outside with bare feet.


    ire smiled, "Just put on your shoes quickly, or Mr. rk''s heart will ache for you."


    But Madelyn couldn''t care less. She looked at a piano in front of the French window, feeling shocked.


    Certainly Benjamin''s gift was expensive. The piano was worth 20 million yuan and it had a history. Well,


    to put it approachable, it had royal blood.


    It was said that Louis II had yed it before.


    The piano had a beautiful name, Morning Dew.


    Madelyn touched the piano lovingly.


    There was a red rose on the cover. Suddenly it reminded her thatst night Benjamin hugged her after


    the sex and whispered in her ear, "You are my morning dew."


    Her face became rosy and she was moved a bit by his romance!


    ire was rather happy to see her reacting like that and said eagerly, "How about ying it, Ms.


    Green? I would like to enjoy it although I am just a rough person."


    Madelyn agreed softly.


    She sat down and lifted the piano cover. She put her slender fingers on the ck and white keys and


    started to y lightly.


    It was Moonlight.


    ire knew nothing of art, but she felt that Ms. Green yed nicely, especially when Ms. Green wore a


    retroce nightgown with her long and loose brown hair reaching her waist.


    Ms. Green just sat there, like an oil painting. It was just indescribably beautiful!


    Mr. rk was so lucky!


    Madelyn finished the song.


    She caressed the warm keys and she could hardly tear herself away from it.


    Her phone in the bedroom rang. It was Benjamin. ire just left tactfully.


    Madelyn picked up the phone and answered.


    "Get the gift?" Benjamin smiled lightly.


    Somehow, she flushed as she heard his voice. She bit her red lips lightly, "It''s too expensive."


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    "As long as you like it."


    "Do you like it, Madelyn?"


    She replied honestly, "I do. Very much... Thank you, Benjamin."


    No reply was heard from him for a long time. As she became a little anxious, he said in a slightly


    hoarse voice, "I will wait for your gratitude tonight."


    She was no longer an ignorant little girl and she knew what he meant.


    He wanted to do it. So did she.


    After all, she had little experience and she was not thick-skinned enough to talk to him about that.


    Besides, ire was at home.


    She looked up at the French windows and said softly, "I want to change the soft clothes, Benjamin."


    She knew that she was asking for more as she got his favor. But a girl at that age should be loved by a


    man. And she could feel his bottom line.


    Sure enough, he agreed.


    She was so happy that she wished she could be by his side at the moment, so she would kiss him.


    Obviously, he had the same intentions. His voice was rather hoarse as he spoke, "The meeting is about


    to start. Let''s talk about it tonight then."


    She nodded softly.


    She couldn''t help touching the piano again after hanging up the phone. Now she was immersed in the


    great joy of her life. But how did she take it away if she left one day? She just never thought about it.


    She was rather innocent, forgetting that that kind of extreme love was exactly the way a man of status


    kept a woman. She would be exalted to the sky when he loved her, but he would retreat cleanly when


    he got tired of her.


    It was the spoiled one who stayed where she was.


    ire arranged the breakfast.


    She said happily, "It''s the foreign-style breakfast today, Ms. Green. I heard from the installer that the


    piano is called Louis II or something. Well, the foreign instrument should go with the foreign meal."


    Madelynughed as she heard that.


    She stroked the shiny ck paint on the piano and murmured softly, "It''s Louis II."


    ireughed, "Oh, look at me."


    Madelyn went back to the bedroom to wash up. She changed her clothes and went out to have


    breakfast. ire handed her a card, "Oh right! A woman gave me the card early in the morning and


    said that she wanted to buy you dinner."

 Chapter 90 She Really Likes Benjamin

    Chapter 90 She Really Likes Benjamin


    Chapter 90 She Really Likes Benjamin


    Ms. Waylon?


    Madelyn guessed that it was Penelope from the Music Center. Penelope used to take care of her very


    much, so Madelyn couldn''t refuse her invitation.


    Madelyn called Penelope back.


    Penelope didn''t mention a lot, but just smiled and said, "It''s a good thing. Let''s talk about it at lunch."


    Madelyn was a little curious!


    There were still two or three hours before lunch. Madelyn measured the size of the floor-to-ceiling


    curtains in the living room, took pictures of the apartment, and decided to visit the furniture store in the


    afternoon.


    At noon, Madelyn and Penelope met in a grilled fish restaurant. Penelope liked spicy food, and


    Madelyn ate with her. Soon Madelyn flushed.


    When they were full, Penelope got to the point.


    "You know Elizabeth was boycotted by many parents collectively, don''t you?"


    Madelyn was stunned.


    She said involuntarily, "How could it be? A few days ago, I saw her get along very well with those


    parents, and she looked very popr."


    Penelope smiled meaningfully.


    She said, "Madelyn, do you really don''t know or pretend not to know?"


    Madelyn became serious and asked after hesitating for a moment, "Is it rted to me?"


    Penelope said bluntly, "To be precise, it is rted to the famous Mr. rk. He participated in the


    reunion with you, and it had a strong influence on you! Madelyn... Those parents are all cunning. Now


    they all want to tter Benjamin through you."


    Penelope shrugged and continued, "They strongly demanded to rece Elizabeth and want you to


    teach their children."


    Madelyn smiled faintly and thought, "It''s the inconstancy of human rtionships."


    Penelope knew Madelyn''s thoughts. She was open-minded and said, "It''s okay if you don''t want to


    Music Center anymore. I heard that someone couldn''t bear her anymore. She is crying and begging the


    boss in his office right now!"


    Madelyn knew it was Daniel!


    Madelyn had broken up with Daniel, but he appeared in her world in every way. However, Madelyn had


    no feelings for him anymore.


    Penelope cleverly said nothing more, and she even didn''t ask about the rtionship between Madelyn


    and Benjamin.


    Penelope thought, "Anyway, it''s just the rtionship between the two sexes!"


    After the meal, Penelope had to go back to clean up Elizabeth''s mess, so she left soon.


    Madelynposed herself.


    She didn''t want to think about the past over and over again. No matter what Daniel''s thoughts were,


    she wouldn''t be influenced by him anymore. She had topletely forget Daniel.


    Madelyn took a taxi to the furniture store.


    She chose a rich baroque fabric and ordered a floor-to-ceiling curtain. She also chose twoke blue


    vases based on the color of the curtain, onerge and one small.


    These things alone cost Madelyn 55 thousand dors.


    Madelyn didn''t think the things were expensive. She felt that the Morning Dew piano deserved the


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    best.


    After swiping the card, the manager respectfully gave Madelyn a small gift.


    "Ms. Green, we will send the goods for instation before four o''clock in the afternoon. Please don''t


    worry."


    Madelyn smiled.


    She wandered around and bought a few pretty goodce tablecloths and ornaments. Madelyn was in a


    very good mood because she bought the things she liked. She sent a text message to Benjamin and


    told him not to go home until six o''clock in the evening.


    Benjamin quickly replied to the message.


    "Yes, Ms. Green."


    Seeing the simple words, Madelyn felt her heart racing. She thought she really liked Benjamin a little


    bit.


    Madelyn felt no shame.


    She thought it was normal for women to like a man like Benjamin.


    ...


    After Madelyn returned to the apartment, the installer quickly came to install the curtain, and it looked


    better than Madelyn had imagined.


    The curtain was amazing with Morning Dew.


    Madelyn put flowers in the vases and spread those beautifulce tablecloths... The whole apartment


    had changed a lot, and it was warmer than before.


    The doorbell rang outside.


    Madelyn thought it was the installering back and immediately went to open the door, but it was


    Benjamin standing at the door.


    Madelyn flushed and asked, "You have the key. Why did you ring the doorbell?"


    Benjamin put his arms around Madelyn''s waist and pressed her against the porch cab...

    Chapter 91 Madelyn, Let Me Teach You


    Benjamin leaned over and kissed Madelyn. He was so skilled that Madelyn was obsessed with the kiss.


    She put her arms around his neck and didn''t stop him.


    After kissing for a long time, Benjamin teased Madelyn, "I don''t have your permission. How can I go


    in?"


    Benjamin said this flirtatiously.


    A pink flush spread over Madelyn''s cheeks.


    Madelyn put her arms around Benjamin and asked in a low voice, "What do you think?"


    Benjamin took off his coat and walked into the house to take a look. He was a little surprised by


    Madelyn''s aesthetics. In his opinion, it was a professional level of design.


    "You chose these things yourself?"


    "Well. Do you like it?"


    Benjamin carried Madelyn in his arms and walked straight towards the Morning Dew.


    Madelyn was ced on it.


    Under Madelyn''s body was a cold piano cover, and in front of her was a warm male body. Madelyn was


    a little uneasy because she heard that some men like to make love on the piano.


    Benjamin gently touched Madelyn''s face.


    "Yes. Of course, I like it. My little Morning Dew, y me a tune."


    Madelyn realized that she had misunderstood, and she was a little embarrassed. She asked herself in


    her heart, "Could it be that I''m more impatient than Benjamin in the sex act?" Madelyn didn''t want to


    admit it and quickly concealed her thoughts.


    Madelyn looked beautiful when she yed the piano.


    She was wearing a long white dress. With her slender waist and good shape, it was very suitable to


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    embrace.


    Benjamin stood behind and watched quietly.


    Madelyn turned her head after ying a tune. When she was about to talk to Benjamin, he walked


    towards her.


    Benjamin leaned over and kissed Madelyn.


    Madelyn epted the kiss with a flushed face. Benjamin kissed more and more fiercely. Finally,


    Madelyn was gently pressed on the piano, and the Morning Dew piano sounded loud.


    Madelyn came to her senses slightly.


    She pressed against Benjamin''s shoulder, bit her lip, and begged, "Not here!"


    Benjamin condescendingly watched Madelyn''s sexy appearance and asked in a husky voice, "You


    don''t like making love here or don''t like to have sex with me?"


    Madelyn was very shy and didn''t reply.


    She lowered her eyes and put her slender fingers on Benjamin''s belt. Madelyn didn''t know how to


    unstrap the belt, so she hadn''t seeded yet after a long time.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn with deep eyes and put his palm covering the back of her hand.


    "Let me teach you!"


    Madelyn''s face was flushed as if burning. Then she was carried into the master bedroom.


    Benjamin was extremely gentle tonight as if he had countless patience to teach Madelyn, and Madelyn


    enjoyed the most extreme happiness.


    After making love, Madelyn was so tired that she didn''t want to move. She leaned against Benjamin to


    rest. Her long hair with moisture wrapped around his sturdy body, which showed the intimate


    atmosphere.


    Benjamin leaned against the head of the bed and smoked.


    Madelyn thought Benjamin was very sexy when he smoked.


    Benjamin lowered his eyes and said softly, "Apany me to a dinner party tomorrow night! It''s


    hosted by an elder, William, the musician who went to the housest time."


    William?


    Madelyn sat up with the quilt.


    She looked at Benjamin and asked, "You know William?"


    Something flickered in Benjamin''s eyes. He seemed to be very casual and said, "Mr. Bet and my


    father are good friends. Why? Do you admire him?"


    Madelyn didn''t dare to speak bluntly, but her eyes were very bright.


    Benjamin stubbed out his cigarette and ced himself over Madelyn.


    He didn''t spare Madelyn easily this night. He had sex with her several times. Madelyn felt that he hadn''t


    vented sexual desire for a long time, otherwise, he wouldn''t do it several times.


    ...


    Early in the morning.


    Benjamin woke Madelyn up by kissing and touching her.


    Madelyn raised her head and stared at Benjamin''s delicate facial features and his perfect chin, which


    made her feel sexually excited.


    When they were overwhelmed by sexual desire, there was a slight sound outside. It was probably the


    maiding to do the housework.


    Madelyn was thin-skinned and pushed Benjamin.


    She leaned against Benjamin''s shoulder and said, "Don''t... The maid ising."

 Chapter 92 Be Good, Dont Be Angry

    Chapter 92 Be Good, Don''t Be Angry


    Benjamin''s eyes were deep.


    Benjamin said in Madelyn''s ear in a husky voice, "Then I will give the maid half a year off. What do you


    think? There will be only the two of us left in the apartment, and we can make love whenever we want!


    Madelyn... Do you agree?"


    "Knock it off. We can do it at night!" Madelyn coaxed Benjamin.


    Benjamin gently held Madelyn''s hand...


    Madelyn groaned softly and leaned on Benjamin''s shoulder. Then she stopped talking.


    Seeing Madelyn agree, Benjamin soon let Madelyn help him masturbate.


    Outside, the maid was doing housework quietly. Suddenly, she noticed the movement in the master


    bedroom and immediately knew what Madelyn and Benjamin were doing. She couldn''t help but flush.


    After listening quietly for a while, the maid thought, "I''m sure Mr. rk hasn''t vented his desire for a


    long time. The sound is so loud. Hope Ms. Green won''t be bullied!"


    ...


    Inside the bedroom.


    Benjamin didn''t make love many times because he had to go to work.


    He went to the bathroom to take a shower and changed into a clean suit. He walked towards the bed


    while wearing a tie.


    He was so busy making love all night and almost forgot the important thing.


    Benjamin bent over and touched Madelyn''s face lightly. He said, "If you have time, just pick a few


    dresses during the day, okay?"


    Madelyn was half kneeling, meekly tying a tie for Benjamin.


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    She was only wearing a men''s shirt Benjamin took offst night. When she leaned over, she naturally


    showed her beautiful body. Benjamin was a man who had a strong sexual appetite, and he couldn''t


    help but squint at Madelyn at this moment.


    Benjamin held Madelyn''s hand lightly, breathing quickly.


    Madelyn blushed and didn''t stop Benjamin. She thought for a while and said, "I bought a few dresses


    Benjamin frowned as if he was a little unhappy.


    He said gently, "I''ll ask Paisley to send you a dress!"


    Madelyn saw that Benjamin was unhappy, and she immediately knew that he might think she was


    ss and was far away from wealthy families.


    At this time, Madelyn was in aplicated mood. She thought it was not good to refuse, but it was


    even worse not to refuse.


    Madelyn knew better that Benjamin didn''t have to care about her emotions all the time.


    After finishing tying the necktie, Madelyn gently smoothed out the wrinkles in the suit.


    It was silent.


    Benjamin hugged Madelyn gently and asked, "Are you angry? I ask Paisley to send over it so that you


    don''t have to choose and can save time. If you are not happy about it, you can ask Vivian to


    apany you to choose."


    Madelyn felt the importance Benjamin attached to the banquet and knew that he didn''t like the dress


    she picked.


    After thinking for a while, Madelyn smiled slightly and said, "Let Paisley send it. She has good taste."


    Benjamin didn''t refuse.


    He stroked Madelyn''s face and coaxed, "Don''t be angry, okay? It''s just a trifle."


    Madelyn could take a hint. Benjamin''s words reminded her that their rtionship was always unequal.


    Benjamin had the initiative in hands in the rtionship.


    He could do whatever he wanted.


    For example, when the maid came over just now, Madelyn didn''t want to continue having sex, but


    Benjamin wanted her, and she had to agree. Benjamin was unhappy and had a bad temper, and she


    had to endure it.


    Madelyn was in aplicated mood.


    She felt a little wronged, but she couldn''t speak out. Their rtionship was originally unequal. Madelyn


    lived here to make Benjamin happy, and she couldn''t expect him to keep coaxing her.


    Benjamin knew Madelyn was really upset.


    Benjamin had gotten along well with Madelyn recently, and he liked to have sex with her very much. So


    Benjamin kept his temper and coaxed, "I''ll give you a ne at night, okay? You seem to have worn


    one on your neck before. Why don''t you wear it now?"


    Actually, Benjamin couldn''t remember what style of ne Madelyn was wearing, but he was just


    finding a topic.


    Benjamin made a concession, and Madelyn didn''t argue with him.


    Madelyn didn''t tell the truth and just said, "I identally lost it."


    Benjamin took the opportunity to say in Madelyn''s ear, "Why do you always lose things? You''ve lost


    yourself several times a night, haven''t you?"

    Madelyn flushed when Benjamin was flirting with her.


    Madelyn stroked Benjamin''s perfect facial features with her fingers and whispered, "You will bete if


    you don''t leave now."


    Benjamin stared at Madelyn.


    Actually, Benjamin didn''t know what was wrong with him. He was not a youth anymore, but he couldn''t


    help but like to say something to make Madelyn shy.


    In terms of sex, Madelyn was pure and unsophisticated. Benjamin liked to make her be what he liked.


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    That was a great sense of aplishment for a man.


    Benjamin came out of the bedroom. He was considerate. After breakfast, he asked the maid to go back


    early.


    The maid didn''t agree.


    "Mr. rk, you employ me as a maid. How can I get your sry for nothing without finishing work


    today?"


    Benjamin slowly drank the ck coffee.


    He thought for a while and said, "Well, I will ask Paisley to transfer you three months'' sry. You can


    rest at home for these three months. We will talk about it in three months."


    It depended on Benjamin''s interest in Madelyn. If it was still like this in three months, then the maid


    would have to rest for several months.


    Benjamin said calmly, but the maid flushed!


    In the early morning, Benjamin made such a loud noise, and the maid vaguely heard a lot. She was


    conservative, and she didn''t know that men would groan like that when they made love.


    The maid didn''t dare to think deeper.


    She was judicious and very happy. She could go back to her hometown to see her husband and


    children for a few months'' sry.


    The maid packed up and left quickly.


    Before leaving, she whispered, "Mr. rk, treat Ms. Green well. She is a good girl."


    Benjamin folded the newspaper in his hand and smiled. "I will."


    ...


    After a night of sex, Madelyn was so tired that she didn''t wake up until noon.


    After a simple meal, Paisley came over with a team of people. There was a styling designer, a makeup


    artist, and employees of several luxury stores. They dragged severalrge boxes over, and Madelyn


    was shocked.


    Paisley was sophisticated and was a good judge of character. Although Benjamin was only living with


    Madelyn now, Paisley thought it was obvious that Benjamin liked Madelyn very much. Paisley also


    thought that maybe Madelyn would be Benjamin''s wife in the future.


    Therefore, Paisley was very concerned about Madelyn''s affairs.


    Paisley ordered the employees to take out all the dresses. There were 30 dresses of all kinds of


    seasonal ready-to-wear and haute couture, each in the size of Madelyn.


    Paisley smiled and said, "Mr. rk means that ready-to-wear dresses and haute couture will be


    respectively picked out five pieces that you like for future use."


    Paisley lowered her voice and continued, "In the future, you will have a lot of opportunities to mingle


    with others. These are the most basic, and the jewelry will be providedter."


    Madelyn was a woman, and no woman disliked beautiful clothes.


    However, when she moved here, she never thought about mingling with others after being with


    Benjamin. She thought she only had to satisfy his physical lust.


    Paisley gave advice and said, "Mr. rk is well-connected. Don''t waste such resources."


    She continued, "Madelyn, don''t be stupid as a woman. What you can catch and hold is the most


    important."


    Although Madelyn didn''t understand this, she knew that Paisley was for her good.


    Madelyn thanked softly and concentrated on choosing the dresses.


    identally seeing the tag prices, Madelyn was secretly surprised. The ready-to-wear clothes cost at


    least one thousand dors, and the most expensive haute couture was more than 300 thousand


    dors. These dresses would basically only be worn once.


    Madelyn didn''t want to be embarrassed, so she picked a few pieces that were suitable for her without


    changing her look. The dresses almost cost more than 500 thousand dors.


    Madelyn thought, "Benjamin is a spendthrift! It burns a hole in his pocket!"

    Chapter 94 He Is Amazed by Madelyn''s Appearance


    Paisley smiled and said, "Ms. Green has a good eye! I saw the apartment had a lot of changes. No


    wonder Mr. rk said long ago that you were dexterous and had good taste."


    Paisley had a good tongue. Her words made Madelyn''s previous anger at Benjamin disappear, and


    Madelyn epted these dresses much more confidently.


    Madelyn rxed and let the stylist design.


    The banquet was a little personal, so there was no need to dress up too much. The stylist picked out an


    ink-colored dress with spaghetti straps for Madelyn. The dress was very close-fitting, and Madelyn''s


    slender legs naturally showed from the hem.


    The stylist admired, "Ms. Green, you''re in good shape, and your skin is impable."


    She took a closer look...


    Madelyn''s face was small, and her facial features were very perfect.


    The stylist discussed with Madelyn, "This dress is more suitable for a better hairstyle. I will make a new


    hairstyle for you. If you like it, you can go to my shop to make it permanent."


    Madelyn stroked her long hair.


    Her hairstyle was natural, but she also wanted to try another hairstyle.


    The stylist moved quickly. Soon she helped Madelyn straighten her long hair, sprayed disposable hair


    dye, and then trimmed her hair.


    After finishing the makeup, the makeup artist said softly, "You really look like the heroine of the movie,


    but your skin is more fair and delicate. Your legs are straighter."


    Others echoed.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Madelyn was amazed by her new appearance.


    She thought, "It turns out that I can be so pretty. Is this the power of money?"


    Sending away the people, Paisley was afraid that the makeup was messed up, so she didn''t let


    Madelyn do anything and personally set up a separate cab for Madelyn''s selected dresses and


    hung them up.


    Paisley said naturally, "In two days, I will pick a few sets of jewelry to match all kinds of dresses."


    Madelyn did not refuse, because she knew that it was Paisley''s job.


    When Paisley left, she nced at Madelyn deeply. She silently thought, "Mr. rk has beente for


    work recently. Maybe it will be the norm. With such a lovely person at home, no one is willing to get up


    from bed."


    ...


    Benjamin came back at seven o''clock in the evening.


    He nned to change his clothes and take Madelyn to the banquet. But when he saw Madelyn, he


    couldn''t move his eyes.


    "The dress is very good," Benjamin said in a husky voice, gently unbuttoning his shirt.


    Madelyn handed Benjamin a ck shirt.


    Benjamin was about to wear a ck shirt, a light brown suit, a brown suit vest, and a dark brown tie


    tonight.


    The tie clip was very exquisite, with jewelry embedded in it.


    Benjamin didn''t take the shirt for a long time. Lust flickered in his deep eyes, and his voice was very


    husky. "I''ll change itter."


    Before Madelyn could realize Benjamin''s change, she was hugged.


    Benjamin hugged Madelyn from behind, stroked her slender waist, and flirted with her. He said, "You''re


    so beautiful!"


    Madelyn''s knees gave way because of Benjamin''s behavior. She raised her arms around his neck and


    whispered, "We''re going to bete."


    Benjamin didn''t let Madelyn go.


    He raised his hand to look at the time and then did something more intimate. He buried his face in her


    neck and flirted with her. "I''ll only do it once."


    After speaking, Benjamin turned Madelyn around and kissed her frantically.


    The dress was taken off and thrown on the ground, and Benjamin carried Madelyn in his arms to the


    cloakroom...


    After a while, the sex was over.


    Madelyn was so tired that she hardly wanted to go out. Benjamin tidied her dress up in a good temper.


    Then he took out a diamond ne from his pocket and gently helped Madelyn wear it on her


    delicate neck.


    "Do you like it? I picked it personally." Benjamin kissed Madelyn''s earlobe and looked at their figures in


    the mirror.


    Madelyn stroked the ne.


    She could see that this diamond ne was very expensive and suitable for her. The most important


    thing was that Benjamin put his mind to it.


    Then Madelyn and Benjamin made up. Madelyn turned around and hugged his neck and kissed his


    chin gently. She said, "It''s beautiful. I like it very much."


    Benjamin smiled softly.


    He said in Madelyn''s ear in a husky voice, "Are you not angry anymore? If yes, when we''re back from


    the banquet, we will continue to..."

    Chapter 95 Ms. Green, You Remind Me of My Old Friend


    When they got in the car, they were almostte.


    Madelyn was sitting next to Benjamin, and she couldn''t even look at his side face. She couldn''t help but


    wonder how long he was in a dry spell.


    She thought, "He even made love day and night."


    Probably guessing what Madelyn was thinking, Benjamin stopped the car at the red light at the


    intersection in front.


    Benjamin held Madelyn''s hand and gently rubbed her palm.


    "Have a guess!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to guess. She looked out of the car window, wanting to conceal her flushed


    cheeks.


    Benjamin gently touched Madelyn''s delicate face and smiled. Then he said, "I''m not as licentious as


    you think, and there are no other women around me. I''m so busy at work that I don''t have time to


    womanize!"


    Madelyn flushed with her racing heart and thought, "He''s really shameless!"


    "If not, what has he been doing these days?"


    Benjamin said in Madelyn''s ear deliberately, "Ms. Green, you also can''t wait to have sex every time.


    Maybe it''s you who y with my emotions."


    Madelyn was simple and pure, so she couldn''t bear Benjamin''s indecent words. Then she was so


    angry that she ignored him.


    However, even if Madelyn was angry, she didn''t make Benjamin embarrassed at the banquet.


    Benjamin was very well-known and powerful in Gredax. As soon as he entered the banquet hall, many


    people came to tter him. They were also amazed by Benjamin''s femalepanion.


    They had heard recently that Benjamin was making a pet of a woman. They were curious and wanted


    to meet her. Now that they saw the woman, they thought she was really good-looking and lovable.


    When Benjamin talked out of courtesy, Madelyn held his arm and didn''t bother him.


    Benjamin was afraid that Madelyn would be bored, so he wanted to take her to pick some food to eat


    before sitting down.


    "Benjamin."


    A soft voice sounded. Eloise came over with Daniel, holding his arm.


    When Madelyn saw Daniel, Madelyn froze slightly. She didn''t expect to see him on such an asion.


    Madelyn''s change could not be concealed from Benjamin.


    Benjamin nced at Madelyn sideways, then smiled at Eloise. He said, "I thought you wouldn''te."


    Eloise leaned on Daniel''s shoulder and said softly, "It''s Daniel who wants to meet Mr. Bet, so I took


    him."


    Eloise yed with the buttons of her fiance''s shirt and said, "I haven''t heard that you are so in awe of


    art before."


    Daniel coaxed Eloise and then stared at Madelyn.


    Benjamin sneered.


    He knew best why Daniel was here. He thought, "Daniel just wants to meet Madelyn. Sometimes I


    really admire him very much. He has been with Madelyn for four years but didn''t cherish her. Now that


    Madelyn has broken up with him, he shows his affectionate appearance now."


    "He''s really stupid!"


    Fortunately, William came over. He was wearing a ck tuxedo, and he looked handsome and young


    because of proper maintenance.


    "Benjamin, Eloise."


    William patted Benjamin on the shoulder and greeted him in a good mood.


    Benjamin nodded politely and then introduced Madelyn to William, "She''s my girlfriend, Madelyn


    Green. She has been learning to y the piano since she was a child, so she admires you very much.


    She knew that you woulde to the banquet, so she wanted toe today."


    Madelyn?


    William was slightly stunned.


    This name reminded him of the year in his 20s. He was a poor boy, while his girlfriend, Madeline Ryan,


    was a rich girl. She apanied him to live in a house of less than 100 square feet for a year. They


    loved each other but William was angry with Madeline because of a misunderstanding. Later, he got


    married and identally learned that she was pregnant at the time.


    William regretted it and looked for Madeline frantically!


    However, William never found any information about Madeline, and he didn''t get any clue from the


    Ryan family in Gredax. Some people said that she was expelled from the Ryan family because she


    was unmarried and pregnant...


    "Mr. Bet?" Benjamin''s voice was slightly husky.


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    William came to his senses. He smiled and said, "Ms. Green''s name reminds me of my old friend. If


    she gave birth to a child, this child should be the same age as Ms. Green."


    When William said this, his eyes showed sadness.


    Madelyn guessed that William once had an unforgettable lover. That old friend was his lover, and that


    unknown child should be William''s own child.

 Chapter 96 Mr. Bennett, Look at Me

    Chapter 96 Mr. Bet, Look at Me


    Chapter 96 Uncle William, Look at Me


    Madelyn was soft-hearted and didn''t know how tofort him.


    William looked at her eyes, which seemed identical to those of the woman in his memory. He shook his


    head, thinking that he missed Madeline so much that he was deceived by his eyes.


    After all, he was a public figure, so he quickly collected himself.


    William was d that Benjamin finally got a girlfriend. Madelyn seemed to be a good girl.


    "Uncle, you only look at Madelyn. You don''t even take a nce at me."


    Eloise pouted and said sweetly.


    William chuckled with amusement.


    He hugged Eloise and teased her gently, "You have a boyfriend. Why do you pester me like you did


    when you were small?"


    Eloise grew up abroad.


    She used to sit on William''s shoulders, so she was spoiled by him like a daughter. When she heard


    what William said, she pursed her lips slightly and said, "I won''t forget you even if I get married."


    William looked at her with loving eyes.


    He prayed to god that he could find his lost daughter. He wished his daughter would be as lovely as


    Eloise. He would do anything for her and give her the best things¡­


    Madelyn looked at William quietly.


    She thought he must like children.


    He looked at Eloise as if she was his child¡­


    William came back this time to look for his daughter quietly. He asked Benjamin for help and winked at


    thetter. Benjamin got the hint and asked Madelyn to eat some food first.


    In the small sitting room.


    William couldn''t stifle his anxiety and asked earnestly, "Benjamin, have you got any clues?"


    Benjamin had made a thorough investigation, but he hadn''t got any information yet.


    He shook his head slightly.


    William was disappointed. He carefully took from his pocket a small ne, which was decorated


    with a pink diamond.


    William mumbled in a grievance, "This is the ne she used to wear. It''s been so many years. I


    didn''t expect to behold it again."


    Benjamin took the ne.


    He frowned slightly. He found the ne familiar and thought he had seen it somewhere before, but


    he couldn''t remember it. Perhaps he saw it on a customer?


    Benjamin looked at the ne for a while and handed it back to William. "Don''t worry. I''ll continue to


    investigate it."


    William patted him on the shoulder and said, "I need to think for Eleanor''s mother, so I have to trouble


    you with it."


    Benjamin raised his eyebrow slightly.


    Because he heard the name of Eleanor.


    Looking at Benjamin''s face, William didn''t say anything about Eleanor and changed the subject


    casually.


    Madelyn waited for half an hour, but Benjamin didn''te out.


    It was her first time attending such an event, and she felt bored. She decided to go to the balcony for


    fresh air. The banquet hall was on the 68th floor, and it had a wonderful night view.


    Madelyn leaned on the railings. She had a drink, and her eyes were gentle and charming.


    Daniel stood at the door to the balcony.


    He thought sarcastically, "Does she wear such a look because she''s thinking of Benjamin?"


    Furstrated, Daniel blurted out words that might hurt her feelings.


    "Congrattions! You have be Mr. rk''s official girlfriend and will have haute couture of


    designer brands and jewelry that cost millions. Madelyn, are you happy now?"


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Daniel''s words were sarcastic, but he actually wanted to say he could give her those things too.


    However, he couldn''t bring himself to say these words now.


    The night wind was up.


    Madelyn turned her head slowly and looked at Daniel. Her beauty took his breath away.


    Daniel felt a sudden pang in his heart, and half of his body went numb.


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and gave a faint smile, saying, "Daniel, what do you get from mocking me?


    Do you feel the joy of revenge? If yes, go ahead."


    Daniel smiled.


    A trace of ferocity came across his face, and he approached Madelyn. When he was one yard away


    from her, he sneered. "Have you gotten over me that fast? How can you ept another man and sleep


    with him in such a short time?"


    His words were nasty, and Madelyn''s eyes turned red.


    Daniel seemed to have forgotten who did the wrong thing and let her down.


    Madelyn was not surprised.


    How could a man like Daniel know about love?


    A man like him would never know how much she used to long to spend the rest of her life with him¡­

 Chapter 97 Benjamin Was Possessive

    Chapter 97 Benjamin Was Possessive


    Chapter 97 Benjamin Was Possessive


    Her eyes turning red, Madelyn looked at Daniel in the dim light.


    They had been together for four years, and there was a mixture of disappointment and resentment in


    her eyes.


    Behind the ss wall.


    Benjamin held a ss of wine and looked at them expressionlessly.


    There was displeasure in his eyes.


    He was annoyed by the emotion in Madelyn''s eyes. Perhaps she didn''t love Daniel anymore, but the


    Benjaminughed at himself. He turned out to be possessive, which was typical of men.


    Eloise went up to him.


    When she saw Daniel standing next to Madelyn, she felt uneasy and mumbled, "Benjamin, why is


    Daniel with Madelyn? They look..."


    Daniel hoped his sister didn''t know about it for the rest of her life.


    He stared at Daniel and Madelyn and lied through his teeth, "Have you forgotten? Daniel didn''t save


    Madelynst time. She hates him, and he might dislike her too."


    "Oh, I see."


    Eloise believed what he said.


    She came up with another question. "Benjamin, isn''t Madelyn David''s girlfriend? Why has she be


    your girlfriend?"


    Benjamin gave a faint smile and said, "I got her before David. What''s wrong with that?"


    Eloise nced at him curiously.


    She pouted her mouth and said, "You must think she''s pretty."


    Benjamin didn''t deny it.


    He moved Eloise to the front and held her gently from behind, resting his chin on her head and


    chuckling softly. "Didn''t you say she had nice boobs? Besides, she''s docile and good at cooking. What


    else do you want to know?"


    Eloise was annoyed.


    Sure enough, men followed their desire, and her outstanding brother was no exception.


    "Benjamin, you''re nasty!"


    She thought for a while and then asked curiously, "Do you live together?"


    Benjamin smiled faintly.


    Nasty? Which man was not nasty? Wasn''t it hypocritical to stifle one''s desire when he met the woman


    he wanted to hug?


    Eloise suddenly thought of something serious and said in a soft voice, "Mom has taken to fortune-


    telling recently. She went to a fortune teller, who said you would marry a Taurus."


    A Taurus?


    Benjamin instinctively recalled that Madelyn was a Taurus.


    Was it a coincidence?


    He showed no visible sign of emotion and tapped Eloise''s head lightly. "Do you believe such


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    nonsense?"


    Eloise thought about it carefully.


    Benjamin was right. The fortune teller said she would marry a Virgo, but Daniel was not a Virgo, so it


    was not correct.


    Meanwhile, Madelyn didn''t want to stay with Daniel alone, so she turned to leave the balcony.


    When she turned around, she saw Benjamin and Eloise.


    Daniel also turned around and saw the brother and sister standing behind the ss wall. He wondered


    how Benjamin managed to fool Eloise, who wasn''t angry at all and waved at him with a smile.


    Daniel broke out in cold sweat.


    Eloise went over and held his arm, saying sweetly, "Daniel, Madelyn is Benjamin''s girlfriend. You


    should be nice to her from now on."


    Daniel looked at her pretty face and then fixed his eyes on Madelyn.


    He said meaningfully, "Don''t worry. I''ll treat her well."


    Eloise tiptoed and gave him a kiss. "I know you''re the best."


    Daniel coaxed Eloise as if she was a child, and she was delighted. Eloise said in a good mood,


    "Benjamin said Madelyn was a good cook. Why don''t we have some midnight snacks?"


    She said to Madelyn pleadingly, "Please. I don''t like the food here."

    Madelyn softened when she looked at Eloise''s pretty and lovely face.


    However, she knew she was exceptionally kind to Eloise mostly because she liked Benjamin.


    Madelyn was ashamed of her thought.


    She couldn''t help looking at Benjamin.


    When Benjamin met her eyes, he got angry.


    He thought, "What, does she want to stay with Daniel that much? Does she want to take him home?"


    Benjamin looked at Daniel.


    As a man, Daniel soon noticed Benjamin''s displeasure. He gave a faint smile and said with feigned


    politeness, "I hope it won''t trouble you too much."


    Benjamin sneered.


    He put his arm around Madelyn''s waist gently and said, "Of course not."


    Madelyn didn''t expect Benjamin would agree, so she couldn''t help asking in a small voice when they


    were alone, "Are you sure?"


    Benjamin gazed at her for a good while and said slowly.


    "I thought you liked the idea. Didn''t you have a good chat with him just now?"


    Madelyn guessed Benjamin got her wrong, so he said in a sarcastic tone.


    She didn''t exin.


    Benjamin was well aware of her past with Daniel. She could do nothing about it if it upset him every


    time to see her meet Daniel in public.


    However, she felt aggrieved, her eyes turning red.


    William happened to see that and came over with a smile. "Did you bicker? Benjamin, you''re a man


    and should treat your girlfriend well. She''s the apple of her parent''s eye at home. There''s no reason for


    her to tolerate you blindly."


    He patted Benjamin. "Try to restrain your temper."


    Benjamin respected William and nodded.


    William had to entertain the other guests. Before he turned to leave, he said to Madelyn meaningfully,


    "Few people can anger Benjamin."


    Madelyn was deeply hurt by Daniel, so she didn''t want to be hurt again.


    She gave a vague smile.


    William admired Madelyn and thought she had guts.


    He had a good opinion of Madelyn and made an exception, giving her two VIP concert tickets. "Come


    to the concert if you have time."


    Madelyn was ttered. She gripped the tickets and thanked him. All her displeasure vanished.


    They left the banquet and got in the car.


    Benjamin held the steering wheel with his hands and cast a sidelong nce at Madelyn''s bright face,


    saying in a hoarse voice, "Why are you so happy?"


    Madelyn showed him the two concert tickets.


    "Did Mr. Bet give you these tickets?" Benjamin was surprised. William was not sociable, but he


    seemed to like Madelyn a lot.


    William not only spoke up for Madelyn but also gave her the tickets.


    Knowing that Benjamin was upset because of Daniel, Madelyn tried to please him. She rested her


    delicate chin on his shoulder while waiting for the green light and said in a soft voice, "Will you go with


    me?"


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Benjamin looked at her with deep eyes.


    "Do you want me to go?"


    Seeing that he had softened a little, Madelyn held his arm gently, "Who else can I ask for help?


    Benjamin, tell me..."


    Her voice was soft and charming.


    Benjamin swallowed hard.


    He regretted it. At this moment, he wanted to make love to Madelyn instead of going against Daniel.


    The traffic light turned green.


    Benjamin started the car and yed a romantic tune.


    He held Madelyn''s hand asionally.


    Madelyn guessed he had cooled down, so she rxed and leaned against the leather seat. She stared


    at his handsome side face and blushed slightly.


    After all, she was young. Benjamin got jealous because of her and was willing to indulge her. She


    thought he treated her differently and dreamed they might spend a lifetime together...

    Chapter 99 Just One Kiss


    When they got to the apartment, Benjamin took off his suit and tossed it casually on the sofa.


    Madelyn said softly, "I''ll go get changed."


    Benjamin gazed at her without saying a word. He turned to Eloise and Daniel and entertained them.


    "Take a seat."


    Eloise showed Daniel around the apartment.


    She touched Louis II and eximed, "Benjamin, you''re generous! Did you airlift this piano? In addition,


    the apartment is different from before."


    Benjamin took a bottle of wine and four goblets from the cab


    He poured the wine into the goblets slowly and looked at Daniel with a vague smile. "It''s Madelyn who


    did it. She has nothing to do at home, so she re-decorated the apartment."


    Eloise was envious.


    Benjamin treated Madelyn very well.


    Daniel felt awkward.


    He came here because he wanted to anger Benjamin, but he felt uneasy once he set foot in the


    apartment, where there were traces that Madelyn was living here, reminding him that the woman who


    had loved him for four years was living with another man.


    Daniel picked up the goblet and drank up the wine.


    Benjamin shook the goblet gently in a good mood.


    At this moment, Madelyn came out after putting on a set of casual wear.


    Her clothes were pale pink with soft fabric.


    As Madelyn was going to cook, she tied up her hair and revealed part of her fair neck, which was


    seductive.


    Benjamin stared at her for a long while and said like a host, "Don''t exhaust yourself. Don''t listen to


    Eloise. She has been on a diet and will only take a bite or two no matter how many dishes you make."


    Eloise had been feeling apologetic with Madelyn because of the kidnap.


    She said tteringly, "Madelyn, I swear I''ll eat up whatever you make."


    Madelyn gave a faint smile and went to the kitchen.


    Benjamin put down his goblet and followed her.


    When he entered the kitchen, he closed the door. When Madelyn was looking for ingredients in the


    fridge, he pressed her against the fridge door.


    Madelyn asked in a soft voice, "What''s up?"


    Benjamin looked down at her and abruptly lowered his head, approaching her neck and mumbling in a


    hoarse voice, "You look very young after cleaning your face and changing into these clothes."


    The tip of his nose was warm, and Madelyn felt itchy. She pushed his shoulder gently and said, "We


    have guests here. Go entertain them."


    Benjamin bit the tip of her nose lightly.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    What guest was that? It was his rival in love!


    Madelyn could do nothing but put her arms around his neck and tiptoed to kiss the corner of his mouth.


    "Just one kiss."


    Benjamin was so handsome that Madelyn was drawn to him easily.


    Her face was red.


    Benjamin was turned on in the car. Now that he was holding Madelyn in his arms, he couldn''t control


    himself anymore. He held her slender waist tightly and coaxed her in a hoarse voice, "I want more


    kisses."


    He stretched out his hands and put Madelyn on the table, holding her head and kissing her.


    Benjamin was lost in the passion and kissed Madelyn from different angles, but he wanted more. At


    this moment, he hated his sister and her fiance in the living room.


    Madelyn hadn''t lost her senses. She said with a red face, "You''ve been here for a very long time. Go


    out."


    Benjamin looked at her with intense passion in his mature eyes. He asked, "How can I go out like this.


    Madelyn, tell me."


    Madelyn blushed and whispered, "You can say you''re going to take a shower. If you walk fast, you


    won''t be noticed."


    Benjamin gave a vague smile.


    "Can you do this to me?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to disappoint him. She could see that he wanted her very much.


    When she was about tofort him, the kitchen door was pushed open, and Daniel came in.


    When Daniel entered the kitchen, Madelyn and Benjamin were holding each other. She looked giddy


    with passion, and so did Benjamin.

    Chapter 100 You''re An Affectionate Couple


    It was the first time that Daniel had seen such a scene.


    His blood froze.


    Daniel stared at the woman who was supposed to belong to him. She kissed the man eagerly in the


    kitchen. He guessed they might have had sex there if there had been no guests at home.


    Although Daniel felt cold inside, he gave a bright smile and said, "You''re an affectionate couple. Ie


    to fetch some ice water."


    He took two bottles of ice water from the fridge and shook them gently.


    The atmosphere was subtle...


    Benjamin was cheeky. What he was worried about just now was not a problem anymore.


    He put Madelyn on the ground and straightened his clothes in front of Daniel. He carefully smoothed


    his belt and fastened his fly. Following that, he gave an apologetic smile and said, "Daniel, I''ll go take a


    shower. Please feel at home."


    After he spoke, he left Madelyn alone with Daniel confidently.


    Madelyn knew Benjamin did that on purpose.


    After Benjamin left, she didn''t talk to Daniel and took the ingredients quietly.


    Daniel gripped the fridge door.


    He stooped and stared at Madelyn. They were very close.


    Madelyn took a step back.


    Daniel sneered and said, "Madelyn, don''t be afraid of me. We''ll be family and should get on well with


    each other. I see that he cares about you."


    Following that, he banged the fridge door and went out of the kitchen.


    Madelyn thought she should tell Benjamin she didn''t want to see Daniel again. When she was fretting,


    Benjamin came back and hugged her from behind intimately.


    "What have you cooked?"


    Madelyn wanted to push him away.


    But Benjamin insisted on holding her. Of course, he made a pass at her.

    Madelyn blushed and said in a soft voice, "I made spaghetti and foie gras for them."


    Benjamin kissed her earlobes and said hoarsely, "What did you make for me?"


    Madelyn tilted her face and leaned against his shoulder, whispering, "You have a weak stomach, so I


    made some soup for you."


    Benjamin gazed at her. After a while, he kissed her lips gently.


    At this moment, Madelyn felt happy.


    She came from a middle-ss family and was not ambitious. All she wanted was no more than a


    decent job and a perfect family.


    She knew she shouldn''t dream about it, but she liked to live with Benjamin.


    ...


    Eloise praised the food that Madelyn made.


    She not only ate up her portion but also drank some of Benjamin''s soup. She said with food in her


    mouth, "Madelyn, I''lle again."


    Madelyn gave a faint smile.


    Considering her rtionship with Benjamin, she was not in the position to stop Eloise froming


    again.


    Benjamin nced at his sister and said, "If you eat a lot every day, you''ll put on weight. Who will marry


    you then?"


    Eloise leaned against Daniel''s shoulder and pouted her mouth. "Daniel will marry me."


    Daniel couldn''t help looking at Madelyn.


    Madelyn looked away.


    She was not annoyed, and nor was she too timid to look at them. She didn''t think it necessary to do


    that.


    Benjamin didn''t seem to notice the subtle awkwardness. He leaned on the sofa and took Madelyn''s


    hand, toying with it. At the same time, he talked with Daniel about the stock market and stock trends


    with a charming smile. He even gave thetter some advice.


    Madelyn admired him. She was not capable of doing that.


    In the end, Daniel couldn''t stand it and took his leave.


    Benjamin walked them downstairs in person. Before leaving, he said to Madelyn gently, "You can tidy


    up tomorrow. Take a shower first. I''ll be right back."


    Daniel quickened his pace in the front.


    With his hands in his pockets, Benjamin looked at Daniel''s back with a faint smile.

    Benjamin returned to the apartment.


    Madelyn ad already finished showering. Instead of wearing pajamas, she had put on one of his ck


    shirts.


    The shirt loosely fit and with her long hair...


    She looked stunning!


    Kneeling on the edge of the bed, she applied lotion to her body, and her body curves looked alluring.


    Benjamin hugged her from behind.


    Taking the lotion from her hand, he applied it for her.


    Madelyn leaned gently against him and asked in a soft voice, "Did she leave?"


    Benjamin hummed in response.


    He gently brushed aside her long hair and applied lotion to the tender skin of her neck. Then, in a low


    voice, he asked, "Is the hair color temporary? Why haven''t you washed it off?"


    Madelyn blushed.


    She murmured, "You seem to like it, so I thought I''d keep it until tomorrow."


    Benjamin chuckled at her response.


    He took the time to apply the lotion over her body and then gently pushed her onto the bed while


    admiring her enchanting appearance.


    Her long hair spread on the bed sheet, her pretty face was glowing, and her slender legs looked


    irresistibly appealing.


    Benjamin, stirred by the encounter with Daniel, couldn''t help but be a bit rougher than before.


    Madelyn held him tightly, her eyes shining brightly.


    By the time he was satisfied, it was already past two in the morning.


    Madelyn nestled in Benjamin''s embrace smelt his pleasant scent and felt sleepy. But suddenly, she


    remembered something and asked, "Eloise now has my phone number. What if shees again?"


    Benjamin closed his eyes.


    He simply responded, "If she wants toe, let here."


    Madelyn propped herself up with one arm.


    She caressed his high nose bridge with her delicate fingers, hesitating for a while before asking,


    "Benjamin, should I... should I tell Eloise about... about my past with..."


    Benjamin opened his eyes and stared at her, asking, "Your past with Daniel?"


    Madelyn felt nervous and struggled to find the words.


    Benjamin closed his eyes again and pulled her down into his arms. He gently touched her head and


    said, "There''s no need for that."


    Madelyn pondered over those words, not quite grasping his meaning.


    ...


    Later on, Eloise came over two more times.


    Luckily, she didn''t bring Daniel along; she only came for ate-night snack by herself.


    Eloise was spoiled but uplicated. She even gave Madelyn some small gifts which ording to her


    would help them get closer as a couple.


    Madelyn found it amusing.


    In the evening when she saw Eloise off, Benjamin happened to return home. As he entered, he


    wrinkled his brow upon smelling the food. He asked, "Eloise was here?"


    "How do you know?"


    Madelyn took his coat from his hand and hung it up for him.


    Benjamin pinched her cheek and replied, "I smell something fried! You don''t usually enjoy fried food."


    Madelyn preferred light food, so her skin was soft and tender. Benjamin thought it was a good habit.


    Madelyn wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.


    Benjamin was in the prime of life and they were just together, so they made love almost every night.


    When Madelyn hugged him, he assumed she wanted it.


    He held her tightly as they kissed passionately. They nearly ended up making love right in the entrance


    hall.


    After kissing for a while, Madelyn whispered to him nose to nose, "I had some too! It was delicious.


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Eloise brought a fryer over."


    Benjamin was quite surprised.


    He didn''t expect Madelyn to be influenced by Eloise when they hung out with each other.


    He patted her and said, "Why do you learn from her? She is azy girl."


    Madelyn replied with a passive smile, "I don''t see anything wrong with it!"


    Benjamin gazed at her and leaned closer to her, whispering, "It seems like you''re quite fond of Eloise.


    Ms. Green, would you say it''s a case of love me, love my dog?"

 Chapter 102 Sorry, I Cant Accompany You Tonight

    Chapter 102 Sorry, I Can''t Apany You Tonight


    Chapter 102 Sorry, I Can''t Apany You Tonight


    A rosy blush spread across Madelyn''s cheeks.


    "I don''t have feelings for you!" she huffed softly and was going to clean up the dining table.


    However, Benjamin loosened his tie and rolled up his sleeves.


    "Don''t bother cleaning up. I''ll just have this."


    He was unusually easygoing tonight, so Madelyn fried some chicken drumettes and prepared a few


    other snacks for him. She even opened a bottle of red wine.


    Benjamin rarely indulged in such snacks, but to his surprise, he found them quite tasty.


    He took a sip of the red wine, savoring its rich aroma on his taste buds.


    Madelyn was quite active in bed.


    She embraced him from behind, leaning in for a passionate and lingering kiss. Unable to hold back


    anymore, Benjamin pulled her onto hisp, while the ss dropped and half a ss of wine spilled on


    the floor...


    But neither of them cared.


    Madelyn had never known she would be so bold to make out with a man in the dining room. As


    Benjamin looked at her with eager eyes, seeking for consent, she hesitated for a moment.


    Benjamin coaxed her, "There''s no one else at home. It''s perfectly normal to have sex in the living room


    once in a while."


    Madelyn blushed, her heart racing.


    She felt as if she had given in to temptation...


    Benjamin softly called her name, "Madelyn?"


    Madelyn leaned against his shoulder, her slender arms wrapped around his waist...


    ...


    Afterward, she felt she indulged in sex too much, especially when she woke up in the early morning her


    body was aching.


    On the bedside table, there was a white rose.


    She knew Benjamin had picked it during his early morning jog, and it was still glistening with dew.


    Madelyn liked it.


    She had only been in two rtionship before, and her rtionship with Daniel was tiring, for he was


    frigid and they at most just had a light kiss once or twice. But being with Benjamin, she what passionate


    love really meant.


    Madelyn lightly stroke the white pillow and thought which woman wouldn''t fall for a lover like Benjamin?


    She knew it wasn''t right, but at this moment, she didn''t want to change...


    After lying down for a little while longer, Madelyn got up to freshen up and tidy up the house.


    The dining room had been cleaned up, but on the sofa in the living room his and her clothes were


    scattering. Madelyn doubted Benjamin did that on purpose.


    She put them away.


    Around noon, she sent a message to Benjamin on WhatsApp, reminding him not to forget William''s


    concert this evening.


    After about half an hour, Benjamin called her.


    He apologized to Madelyn for having to discuss a case with his client in the evening and might not have


    time to apany her.


    Madelyn felt a bit disappointed.


    Benjamin suggested, "Since you''re close to Vivian, why don''t you invite her to go instead?"


    Vivian?


    Madelyn let out a soft sigh. Vivian had gone to Gartown these past few days and wasn''t even here.


    After hanging up the phone and pondering for a while, she decided to invite Florence instead. Florence


    was talented at ying the piano and was also her only student, so it wouldn''t be a waste of the VIP


    ticket to invite her to William''s concert.


    Madelyn rang Florence up.


    Despite her young age, Florence idolized William. She was thrilled and couldn''t contain her excitement


    when she was invited to the concert.


    "Thank you, Ms. Green."


    Madelyn told Florence to wear a dress tonight.


    Florence, though she was still a little girl, knew everything and said, "I know, it''s etiquette!"


    Madelyn smiled and was in a better mood.


    She picked a floral dress and paired it with a coffee-colored waist belt, which matched her hair color


    perfectly.


    She took a taxi to pick up Florence.


    Owen happened to be at home and greeted Madelyn warmly, "Madelyn is here. Florence has been


    waiting for you, and she''s excited."


    Madelyn smiled and replied, "After the concert, I''ll send her home."


    Owen made a cup of coffee for her and said, "With you around, I have nothing to worry about! Later, I''ll


    have the driver take you there."


    Madelyn didn''t refuse his kind offer.

    Florence came downstairs and greeted her, "Ms. Green!"


    Following her was David.


    David walked down the stairs slowly, his eyes fixed on Madelyn as he spoke casually, "Dad, I''ll give


    them a ride."


    Owen said with a smile, "That works too! You can escort them."

    Chapter 103 Madelyn Is William''s Daughter?


    Madelyn felt it wasn''t right, but she didn''t want to refuse him in front of Mr. James...


    David nced at Florence.


    Florence immediately held Madelyn''s hand and said, "David''s new car is so cool."


    How could Madelyn resist such an adorable little girl like her?


    As they got into the car, Madelyn said to David, "Sorry for troubling you tonight."


    David adjusted his hair while looking at Madelyn in the rear-view mirror. Hearing what she said, he said


    with a smile, "Just a few days and you''re treating me like a stranger, Madelyn?"


    Madelyn just smiled and didn''t say anything more.


    His Adam''s apple bobbing, David took a deep breath and started the car.


    He was quieter all the way to the concert than before.


    Madelyn thought it might be because of her rtionship with Benjamin, so he didn''t feelfortable


    talking to her.


    However, she didn''t know that it was David who had encouraged Eloise to call Benjamin when she was


    forced into a corner by Daniel. He had told Eloise that the Green family was doomed, and naturally,


    Eloise, that fool, told Benjamin what she heard of.


    And now, this was the result.


    The Green family was intact, and Madelyn was together with Benjamin.


    David didn''t know if he had any regrets, but he still had feelings for Madelyn. She had been the one he


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    had liked for a long time, so how could he bear to see her ufortable?


    When they got out of the car, David touched Florence''s head and said to Madelyn, "I have a date today,


    but I''lle to pick her up once it''s over! You can take her to have some snackster."


    Madelyn was relieved.


    She still owed David a favor and didn''t want things to get awkward between them.


    She held Florence''s hand and replied, "Sure, I''ll treat her to something tasty."


    David flew them a kiss and winked, saying, "Ms. Green, you look stunning today!"


    Madelyn blushed.


    David was indeed...


    As they entered, Florence whispered, "David has a girlfriend now..." She gestured with her little hand,


    indicating that the girl had sexy curves.


    Madelyn tousled her hair and thought she was very cute.


    ...


    William only held two concerts in Gredax.


    The hall was packed with people, and it was said that VIP tickets for the best seats were sold for a


    staggering 25 thousand dors each. After enjoying the music yed at the concert, Madelyn thought


    that William truly deserved to be loved by many people.


    She admired William.


    They didn''t have a chance to talk at the previous banquet, and it seemed like it would be the same this


    time. As soon as the concert ended, William was immediately surrounded by reporters, bombarding


    him with questions about his uing schedule and his personal life.


    When asked about his romantic life, William suddenly caught sight of Madelyn in the audience.


    That young girl was looking at him with admiring eyes.


    William was taken aback.


    She reminded him so much of Madeline. Madeline used to sit in his shabby rented room, staring at him


    with the same adoring look...


    Perhaps he had staring at her for too long, and one sharp-eyed reporter noticed it. The camera lens


    was immediately focused on Madelyn and the reporter asked, "Mr. Bet, does your daughtere


    from abroad to attend your concert?"


    What?


    William''s daughter?


    At that moment, a close-up shot of Madelyn''s face appeared on the screen. She indeed looked


    strikingly like William, especially her eyes... Moreover, she was seated in the best VIP seat in the


    concert hall.


    This misunderstanding caught everyone off guard.


    William, having seen and been through a lot of the entertainment industry, knew that if he didn''t rify


    the situation, it could cause trouble for Madelyn.


    So he invited Madelyn to join him on stage.


    William held the microphone and looked at Madelyn with warm and loving eyes as he exined, "I do


    know this girl, and she is a younger acquaintance of mine. If possible, I am willing to treat her as my


    daughter."


    He was so kind and gentle.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but trust him, but she still felt a sense of regret. In this lifetime, she might never


    know who her biological father was...

 Chapter 104 When She Sees Benjamin with Someone Else

    Chapter 104 When She Sees Benjamin with Someone Else


    Chapter 104 When She Sees Benjamin with Someone Else


    They stepped out of the concert hall.


    A tinge of regret still lingered in Madelyn''s heart...


    Florence grabbed her hand and said, "Ms. Green, I''m starving."


    Madelyn knew a nice Zistin restaurant that was just across the street, so she took Florence there.


    Florence was only 14 years old and seldom had such an opportunity to eat in a fancy restaurant, so


    she was particrly thrilled.


    As they entered the restaurant, to their surprise, they bumped into Madelyn''s bedfellow who imed he


    had to work overtime tonight.


    It was Benjamin!


    He was having dinner with a sophisticated and elegant woman. Madelyn had seen this woman before.


    Benjamin had dined with her at the restaurant where Madelyn yed the piano.


    Their rtionship...


    Madelyn couldn''t stop thinking about it!


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin had told her he would be workingte tonight, and now she knew what the work was about.


    On the table, there were several neatly arranged document files put aside.


    At that moment, Benjamin held a ss of brandy with a charming smile and looked like he was having


    a good time.


    The woman was also smiling.


    She said in a gentle and seductive voice, "Ben, I''m looking forward to our next coboration."


    Benjamin subtly furrowed his brow.


    The woman was the widow of a wealthy businessman in Gartown who had suddenly passed away,


    leaving behind tens of billions of inheritance. Benjamin had helped her win the estate case... Their


    rtionship was far from being so close that she could address him by his first name.


    Just as Benjamin was about to speak, he caught sight of Madelyn.


    Madelyn was sitting next to Owen''s little daughter, Florence.


    Had Madelyn gone to the concert with Florence?


    Seeing him lost in thought, the woman prodded him again, "Ben?"


    Benjamin nodded politely and said, "Just a moment, please."


    He got up and walked over to Madelyn''s table, taking a seat beside her. He asked in a low voice, "Why


    are you here?"


    Madelyn flipped through the menu and replied, "I didn''t feel like having fried chicken today. I want to try


    something different."


    That sounded jealous!


    Benjamin lightly tapped the table and exined, "She''s just a client."


    Madelyn nced over, and the woman was also squinting at her, clearly treating her as a rival.


    Madelyn was no fool.


    She heard the woman call him Ben, and it clear that besides their professional rtionship, the woman


    liked him. And it seemed that Benjamin didn''t discourage those thoughts, otherwise, they wouldn''t be


    discussing work in the restaurant.


    Madelyn looked away and helped Florence order the food.


    Benjamin put his hand on the menu and stopped her from looking at it. He was rarely so rude in public.


    Madelyn remainedposed and said, "Don''t scare the child!"


    Benjamin looked at Florence.


    Florence was staring at him, leaving Benjamin at a loss for words... He took a deep nce at Madelyn


    again.


    She calmly ced her order, as if she didn''t care about it at all.


    Benjamin lowered his voice and said, "Let''s talk about itter when we get home." With these words,


    he gracefully returned to his seat.


    The beautiful widow gazed at him affectionately and asked, somewhat awkwardly, "Ben, are they your


    friends?"


    Benjamin took a sip of brandy and lied, "They are my wife and my daughter."


    The widow was shocked.


    Benjamin, who was less than 30, already got married and had a daughter?


    But Benjamin seemed too young to be her father!


    Benjamin didn''t want to be pestered by her, so he just turned her down. If it weren''t for the encounter


    with Madelyn, he would have handled it more tactfully... After all, themission was 2 billion dors.


    The woman was also proud and could sense that Benjamin wasn''t interested in her.


    She ended the business dinner, bid her farewell and left.


    Benjamin escorted her to her car and shook her hand, saying, "Ms. Yarrow, goodbye."


    As she held onto the car door, she said to him with a gloomy face, "It''s a pity that Mr. rk is married at


    such a young age..."


    Benjamin just smiled as he gantly held the car door for her.


    She had to get into the car.


    Benjamin was about to return to the restaurant when a Land Rover abruptly pulled up in front of him.


    The car door was opened, and David hopped out of the car...

    Chapter 105 Benjamin, I Want Her


    Benjamin nced at David and thought of Madelyn and Florence who were in the restaurant. Suddenly


    everything became clear.


    David still had feelings for Madelyn!


    He lowered his head and lit a cigarette, asking, "Here to pick up Florence?"


    David chuckled.


    He had seen it all!


    David approached Benjamin and asked for a lighter. After taking a puff, he smiled and said, "I was


    actually going to take Madelyn home, but since Benjamin, you''re here, I guess I''m not needed


    anymore! By the way...were you on a date with that famous widow from Gartown? Did Madelyn catch


    you two together?"


    Benjamin furrowed his brow and refuted, "What are you talking about?"


    Though he was only a few years younger than him, David knew his ce, so he only dared to tease


    Benjamin like this.


    David nced at the restaurant.


    He fell silent and just quietly smoked his cigarette...


    After finishing the cigarette, he spoke, "I''m serious, Benjamin! If you don''t genuinely love Madelyn, then


    let me take care of her."


    Benjamin''s fingers holding the cigarette trembled.


    The city''s neon lights were shining and cast flickering shadows on his face. With an unusually


    determined tone, he said, "I want her!"


    His Adam''s apple bobbed twice.


    He didn''t look at Benjamin again and walked directly into the restaurant...


    Benjamin stood there, finished his cigarette, and sneered.


    That David!


    Well! He had some nerve!


    When Benjamin reentered the restaurant again, David was already seated beside Florence. He


    remained silent and just watched Florence talking with Madelyn.


    Benjamin could see affection in his eyes.


    As a man, Benjamin felt ufortable seeing other men desiring Madelyn, even if he and


    Madelyn were just friends with benefits.


    Benjamin sat down beside Madelyn.


    As soon as he sat down, his warm breath, infused with aftershave and tobo, brushed against


    Madelyn''s ear. The scent smelt good.


    "What else would you like to eat?" Benjamin asked gently.


    With David present, he said that on purpose.


    Madelyn wasn''t naive; she could see through his intentions. David had helped her before, and she


    considered him a friend. She didn''t want to embarrass David in front of others or cause a scene.


    Dabbing her mouth with a napkin, she gently caressed Florence''s head.


    "I have to go now, but I''ll see you the day after tomorrow!"


    Florence, unaware of what was going on among these adults, replied sweetly, "Ms. Green, please


    Madelyn expressed her gratitude to David once again.


    He seemed nonchnt as he responded, "No need to be so formal. As long as Florence has fun."


    He also touched Florence''s head.


    David could still feel the lingering warmth from Madelyn''s fingertips, and with a slight squint, he was


    savoring the sensation...


    Benjamin nced at him, then grabbed his coat and stood up to take the bill by himself.


    Madelyn didn''t fight over paying the bill to show him respect.


    As they sat in the car, Benjamin rested his hands on the steering wheel, turned to her, and casually


    asked, "Why did you go to the concert with Florence? What''s there to talk about with a child?"


    Madelyn knew what he was implying. He just didn¡¯t want her to get too close to David.


    Benjamin had helped her a lot, and she felt indebted to him. But if the price of being by his side meant


    hurting her friend''s feelings, Madelyn was unwilling to do that!


    She said in a low but determined voice, "Benjamin, if you can go out to dinner with a female client, then


    I can have a meal with my student. Besides, David is Florence''s brother!"


    For the first time, Benjamin saw her get angry.


    He was momentarily taken aback.


    Madelyn also felt uneasy.


    Since being with Benjamin, he had treated her so well that she forgot the true nature of their


    rtionship.


    She understood when he said he had to work overtime, but she also knew that business dinners


    in evenings like tonight could have been scheduled for another time. He had stood her up only because


    she wasn''t his priority. To him, Madelyn was merely a woman who shared his bed!


    Nothing more than that!


    A seemingly insignificant incident had jolted Madelyn back to reality!


    She finally realized why that night when she asked him if she should tell Eloise about her past with


    Daniel, Benjamin just told her that there was no need for that!


    And he was right!


    Because, in his life n, Madelyn was never a part of it. What they had was just a fling, and they would


    break up as soon as the passion wore off. She had been fooling herself, thinking she held a significant


    ce in his life!


    Madelyn admired herself for staying calm throughout it all.


    Benjamin listened silently.


    Her words made perfect sense, and he agreed with her. But deep down, he felt upset.


    There was a prolonged silence.


    Finally, Benjamin spoke to her, "Alright, I crossed the line!"


    He stepped on the elerator and started the car.


    On the way back to their apartment, there was an eerie silence in the car, and neither of them was


    willing to break the silence...


    Once they arrived, Benjamin headed to his study.


    There was no work for him to finish; he simply wanted to be alone in his study.


    When he settled down, he couldn¡¯t stop thinking about David''s words.


    "I''m serious, Benjamin! If you don''t genuinely love Madelyn, then let me take care of her."


    "I want her!"


    ...


    Benjamin did feel affection for Madelyn, but he had never considered spending the rest of his life with


    her. At 28 years old, if he ever wanted marriage, he would have had a son and a daughter, given his


    status and achievements.


    But if they were to break up someday...


    Would Madelyn ept David?


    The mere thought of such a possibility tormented Benjamin and made him annoyed, yet he had to


    conceal it.


    After sitting in the study untilte into the night, he finally returned to the bedroom.


    Madelyn seemed to be asleep, and she left a nightlight on, which was giving off a soft glow.


    Benjamin didn''t even feel like taking a shower; he simplyy down beside her.


    Madelyny on her side and remained still.


    But he knew she was awake. He embraced her from behind, tenderly kissing her under the ear...


    Usually, Madelyn would be easily stirred up by this kind of forey, but now, she felt nothing.


    However, she didn''t resist and even turned her body to him, so he could do whatever he wanted.


    She needed to fulfill her responsibilities and satisfy his needs.


    Benjamin had stronger desires than average, and ever since being with Madelyn, he had sex with


    her almost every night. Despite their recent disagreement, it didn''t hinder this aspect of their


    rtionship...


    But when his desire red up, he noticed that Madelyn seemed absent-minded.


    With her face buried in the pillow, she was lost in her own thoughts.


    "What''s on your mind?" Benjamin held her shoulder, kissing her while asking with a


    hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.


    Madelyn opened her eyes.


    She pondered for a moment and whispered, "I''m thinking about what breakfast to make tomorrow


    morning."


    Benjamin stared at her for a while.


    Suddenly, he turned over, and quickly calmed himself down before getting up and heading towards the


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    bathroom. He said, "Just make whatever you feel like! Suit yourself!"


    Madelyn gently pulled her nightgown closer.


    The sound of showering came from the bathroom. Benjamin spent about 20 minutes inside before he


    walked out of the bathroom after a cold shower.


    The nightlight was switched off, and in the darkness, Madelyn closed her eyes.


    She knew he wouldn''t make love with her tonight and that was fine. It saved her the trouble.


    As she drifted into a deep sleep, Benjamin leaned close and whispered in her ear, "Madelyn, it was


    crossing the line for me to interfere with your interactions with David, and you also crossed the line


    when you were angry at me..."


    Madelyn opened her eyes.


    Expressionless, she asked, "Do you still want it?"

 Chapter 106 Are They Giving Each Other Silent Treatment?

    Chapter 106 Are They Giving Each Other Silent Treatment?


    Chapter 106 Are They Giving Each Other Silent Treatment?


    Benjamin sensed that she was angry.


    He leaned in close to her ear and whispered, "He is just someone insignificant. Why are you mad at me


    because of him?"


    It waste, so Madelyn didn''t want to continue arguing with him.


    Softening her attitude, she gently wrapped her arms around his waist and said, "I believe in you." Then


    she closed her eyes, and her breathing became steady...


    Benjamin found himself unable to fall asleep.


    Under the moonlight, he looked at her delicate face and ground his teeth.


    Madelyn was sound asleep!


    After their argued, she seemed unwilling tomunicate with him or resolve the issues...


    Benjamin wasn''t so good-tempered either.


    If she was giving him the cold shoulder, he saw no reason to appease her.


    ...


    In the morning...


    He woke up to an empty bed, and Madelyn had already got up.


    From outside, he could hear the sounds of her making breakfast and doing household chores.


    Benjaminy on his back, reflecting on what happenedst night. Something felt off in their


    rtionship.


    They shouldn''t have been arguing.


    Once Benjamin realized this, he stopped dwelling on it. He got up, freshened up, and changed into his


    formal attire.


    He was dressed in a light gray shirt and ck trousers.


    He also wore a sleek business overcoat.


    As he put the watch on his wrist, he walked out of the bedroom. Madelyn was setting the table.


    The morning light was shining on her, which made her look exceptionally gentle. However, Benjamin


    had seen Madelyn''s temperst night. Even a little rabbit could bite when threatened.


    Benjamin took a seat and sipped his coffee as he read the morning news.


    Madelyn had prepared egg sd sandwiches as breakfast.


    Benjamin took a bite and found it tastier than those sold in the coffee shops. He stared at it for a


    moment.


    Madelyn sat beside him, noticing he was looking at the sandwich, and gently asked, "Is there anything


    wrong?"


    Benjamin looked at her.


    After a moment, he replied with a smile, "It''s delicious!"


    Madelyn remained silent and drank her milk slowly...


    Benjamin noticed her mind wandering off once again.


    He didn''t say a word, simply grabbed his coat, and headed out. Madelyn went to the entrance corridor


    to fetch his shoes for him. Her eager attentiveness could have delighted any other man.


    But Benjamin didn''t see it that way. The more tender and caring she was, the more distant they


    became.


    She was treating him like a sugar daddy now!


    Benjamin couldn''t quite tell if it was a good thing or not, but he wasn''t particrly happy about that.


    He stared at her and asked a little coldly.


    "In two days, I''m going on a business trip to Esrand. Will you join me?"


    Madelyn was surprised.


    She thought about it and then responded, "Florence has two sses this week, and it might be difficult


    to rearrange the schedule."


    Benjamin didn''t push and just left the apartment.


    Madelyn looked at the closed door and wondered if they were giving each other silent treatment.


    Their conflicts could be resolved. They hadn''t engaged in fights or quarrels. It was simply that ever


    since she saw him with that beautiful client, Madelyn couldn''t treat him as she had done before.


    At least, she couldn''t sleep with him anymore.


    She was a human being, not a machine without feelings.


    After Benjamin was gone, Madelyn cleaned the apartment thoroughly.


    Around noon, the pawnshop called her.


    Madelyn hurriedly answered the phone and asked, "Hello, are there any updates?"


    The manager apologized, "Ms. Green, I''m sorry. Your ne was purchased by an intermediary, but


    unfortunately, he didn''t leave any contact information. We tried our best but couldn''t track him down."


    Madelyn was a bit disappointed.


    After a while, she responded, "If there''s any news, please inform me. I''m willing to pay twice the price


    to get it back."


    The manager offered a few words of constion before hanging up.


    Madelyn held her phone which got slightly hot, thinking whether her bond with her parents was


    destined to be weak.


    If she had been given a few more days, she could finally reim her mother''s possession...


    ...


    After what happenedst night, Madelyn made up her mind to find a job.


    Benjamin could be part of her life, but he couldn''t be her entire world. Otherwise, when the day they


    had to break up came, she would find herself deeply trapped and unable to break free...


    Madelyn had an impressive resume and could easily find a job.


    But she wanted to explore other options.


    At noon, Cam called her toe home for lunch.


    When Madelyn returned home, she knew that it was her 24th birthday today, and Cam had prepared


    a three-tiered cake, a table full of dishes, and a bowl of noodles for her.


    Samuel ced a birthday hat on her head and said with a warm smile, "I''m d I could be here to


    celebrate your birthday! From your childhood until now, Dad has never missed a single birthday of


    yours."


    Cam gently nudged him, reminding him to be more careful with his words.


    Madelyn''s eyes welled up with tears.


    She stepped forward and embraced Samuel and Cam.


    They were not her biological parents, but they had poured all their love into her... At least for now, Dad


    was safe.


    With this thought in mind, Madelyn''s sad feelings fromst night started to fade away.


    During lunch, Samuel asked her about her recent job.


    Madelyn hesitated for a moment and said, "I resigned from my job at the Music Center. I''m considering


    finding a new one."


    Samuel didn''t question her decision.


    But Cam seemed lost in thought.


    After lunch, Cam called Madelyn into the bedroom. She closed the door and went straight to the


    point, "Did you have a quarrel with Benjamin?"


    Madelyn didn''t hide it from her.


    She just gave a vague reply, "I still need to find a job, after all."


    Though she didn''t explicitly say it, Cam knew it well. How could Madelyn not feel hurt when she was


    with Benjamin? Moreover, Benjamin hadn''te to visit Samuel, so his attitude was clear.


    He was just ying with Madelyn.


    Cam wiped away her tears.


    She took a bankbook from the safe and there were 1 million dors in the ount, half of Samuel''s


    savings.


    Madelyn refused to ept it.


    Cam took her hand and ced it in her hand.


    Cam said with a lumpy throat, "Back then, we had no choice! I''m sorry, Madelyn! Being with


    someone like Benjamin... Even though the rk family is incredibly wealthy, spending someone else''s


    money can make them look down on you! Make sure to buy him a few clothes and pairs of shoes when


    you have time... Don''t be too frugal, so that others won''t underestimate you."


    Madelyn felt so sad.


    Cam continued, "I think you shouldn''t find a new job. Rent a ce and open your own music


    ssroom instead. With your talent, I believe you''ll seed! A woman should have her own career


    after all."


    Madelyn looked down at the bankbook.


    After a while, she hugged Cam and said, "Thank you, Cam."


    Cam wiped her tears and added, "Don''t tell your father about what is going on between you and


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Benjamin! He is not in good health, so he can''t handle that."


    Madelyn nodded and replied, "I know!"


    As she walked away, she heard Cam crying in the bedroom for quite a while...


    At six o''clock in the evening, Madelyn finally returned to the apartment.


    Benjamin had alreadye back, apanied by Paisley, who was helping him pack his suitcase.


    Paisley quickly packed everything he needed.


    Benjamin stood by the floor-to-ceiling window and talked in a serious tone with someone on the phone.


    It seemed that something had gone wrong with a case in Esrand.


    After the call, he looked at Madelyn.


    "The business trip has been rescheduled. It''s likely that I will be gone for a week."


    Madelyn wanted to discuss her n of opening a music ssroom with him, but it didn''t seem like a


    good time. So, she asked, "What time is your flight?"


    Benjamin replied, his eyes fixed on her, "Two hourster."


    Madelyn looked up at him.


    She realized just how upied he was, for he was too busy even to give women the cold shoulder.


    Just as Madelyn was lost for words, Benjamin grabbed his luggage and said to Paisley, "Madelyn will


    take me to the airport."


    What?


    Madelyn was shocked...


    Benjamin gently tapped her head and said, "Are you dumb? If you''ve changed your mind, I''ll have


    Paisley buy a ne ticket for you."

 Chapter 107 Benjamin, Are You Sick?

    Chapter 107 Benjamin, Are You Sick?


    Chapter 107 Benjamin, Are You Sick?


    At this moment, Madelyn felt it would be silly to go with him.


    She didn''t give a direct response, but instead changed her shoes at the entrance. She just said, "I''ll


    drive you to the airport."


    Benjamin looked at her for a few seconds silently.


    In the underground parking lot...


    Three cars of Benjamin were parked there.


    One was a Bentley Continental which he frequently drove, and he seldom drove the other two sports


    cars.


    Benjamin opened the door of a red Ferrari and settled into the passenger seat.


    After Madelyn got in the car, he handed her the car keys and said, "You can drive this car from now on.


    It''s not safe for you to take a taxi home after teaching Florence."


    He was giving this car to her?


    Madelyn bit her lip and said, "I''d like to buy myself a new one. This one is too fancy for me."


    Benjamin didn''t object.


    The credit card he had given her had a monthly limit of 8 million dors, so buying a car wouldn''t be a


    problem.


    Madelyn didn''t say anything more and stepped on the gas.


    Benjamin had a long and tiring day, and now he didn''t feel like talking to her about why they arguedst


    night. As Madelyn drove smoothly, he leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.


    An hourter, Madelyn parked the car in the underground lot.


    She leaned towards him and woke him up.


    Benjamin blinked and slowly opened his eyes.


    His eyes were deep-set and upturned, looking truly captivating.


    Madelyn asked, "Shall Ie up with you?"


    Benjamin gently held her hand and caressed it before he spoke in a husky voice, "No need. Just drive


    back safely."


    Madelyn could feel that he was exhausted.


    Grateful for his favors, she felt obliged to express her concern.


    "You too...send me a message when yound."


    Perhaps both of them had softened, and the atmosphere felt different. Benjamin''s gaze was fixated on


    her lips.


    Madelyn leaned in and kissed him. She said to him gently when she looked up at him, "Take care."


    Benjamin suddenly pressed his hand against the back of her head and deepened the kiss...


    Madelyn was surprised.


    She felt his skin was unnaturally hot to the touch.


    "Benjamin, are you sick?"


    Their lips parted, but he didn''t let go of her. Instead, he pressed his forehead against hers...


    His voice was hoarse.


    "Seems like I''ve caught a cold. You can feel my forehead."


    Madelyn was shy and turned her face away. Her breath quickened as she reminded him, "If you waste


    more time teasing me, you''ll miss your flight."


    "Are you rushing me?"


    Benjamin held her close, and with the other hand, he opened the car door.


    Madelyn pushed him away.


    Seeing him struggling with the heavy luggage, she was worried and added, "If you''re not feeling well,


    ask the flight attendant for some medicine."


    Benjamin looked into her eyes and said, "Got it."


    A surge of impulse urged Madelyn to go with him to Esrand, as he was probably sick and had no one


    else by his side to take care of him.


    But ultimately, she suppressed it.


    Back at the apartment, a sense of emptiness washed over her.


    She thought about the unusual arguing between her and Benjamin, realizing that they finally didn''t start


    a fight because of their rtionship. They were in no ce to quarrel with each other.


    Only couples would have a fight for feeling jealousy.


    And they weren''t together!


    Despite that, Madelyn still cared for him deeply. Calcting the time, she called Benjamin three hours


    "I''m fine for now. Let''s talk about itter. I am about to have a negotiation."


    Madelyn said OK.


    After ending the call, she walked over to the window wall and sat down in front of Louis II to y a


    song.


    She had fallen in love with Benjamin, and that love wouldn''t fade due to arguing this time.


    It had taught her how to restrain herself.


    ...


    The next morning, Madelyn wanted to a phone call but was afraid that she would disturb him.


    In the end, she decided not to call him.


    With Benjamin away, she could focus on setting up her music ssroom.


    She decided to give her senior colleague, Penelope, a call to seek her advice. Penelope said dly,


    "Madelyn, how about having a meal together?"


    At the restaurant, Madelyn realized that Penelope also wanted to start her own business.


    "We''ve taken care of everything else, including the preliminary audits and potential clients. The only


    thing left is to find a suitable office. You have no idea how high the real estate price is in Gredax. The


    more affordable options are not favored by the parents, and the ones in better locations cost a fortune."


    Penelope shook her head.


    Madelyn reassured her, "We''ll find a suitable ce eventually."


    Penelope picked up a piece of meat for her.


    "How about coborating with me? You can invest, and in return, you''ll receive a sry and a dividend.


    By the end of the year, you''ll see a handsome return on your investment."


    Madelyn pondered for a moment.


    Coborating with Penelope would allow her to expand the business scale and benefit from Penelope''s


    business acumen.


    Madelyn agreed.


    They reached a final agreement, with Madelyn investing 400 thousand dors for 30% stakes.


    ...


    Madelyn was happy to have this opportunity.


    After the meal, she especially called Cam.


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    When Cam learned that she was working with Penelope, she couldn''t contain her excitement,


    saying, "She''s reliable! You can count on her."


    There was silence on the phone...


    Madelyn understood Cam''s concern. She said softly, "Cam, I''m doing fine. Benjamin treats me


    well, and besides, he''s young and handsome. I have nothing toin about..."


    Cam chuckled at her words.


    After hesitating for a while, Cam asked, "In that aspect, have you and Benjamin used protection in


    sex... Madelyn, I just don''t want you to get hurt."


    Madelyn blushed.


    Knowing what Cam meant, she replied vaguely, "Don''t worry, Benjamin always takes that into


    consideration."


    Cam blushed too and didn''t ask further.


    Madelyn changed the subject.


    She told Cam she wanted to purchase a car. Cam agreed, saying, "When you''re starting your


    career, having a car is a must. It makes you look unprofessional to attend business meetings without


    driving your own car!"


    She also told Madelyn to use their money to buy the car instead of spending Benjamin''s money,


    otherwise she would owe him too much.


    Madelyn felt warm upon hearing this.


    She said, "I understand, Cam. Don''t worry."


    ...


    With Penelope taking care of the arrangements for the music ssroom, Madelyn found herself having


    nothing to do, so she decided to select and buy a new car.


    Considering all the money they got, she thought a budget of around 45 thousand dors to 60


    thousand dors would be suitable.


    In the BMW dealership...


    With the help of the salesperson, in less than an hour, she had ced an order for a car priced at 50


    thousand dors.


    After making the full payment, she was about to talk with the salesperson when she saw familiar faces.


    At first, she thought she had mistaken them and took a closer look.


    They turned out to be Elizabeth and Jackson, Vivian''s husband.


    At that moment, Elizabeth was clinging to Jackson''s arm, chatting and pouting prettily at him. It was


    clear that they were also there to buy a car.


    Jackson seemed hesitant, probably because the car was expensive.


    However, Elizabeth gave him an affectionate kiss.


    Immediately, Jackson made the purchase, and the way he sshed the money made Madelyn feel


    surprised.


    Vivian had been with Jackson since their university days, and they had gotten married soon after


    graduation.


    How could he have an affair with Elizabeth?


    Madelyn''s mind was in a mess, and she had no idea how to tell Vivian about this.


    Elizabeth also spotted Madelyn.


    Her previously coquettish expression turned grim, and she quickly went away with Jackson. Clearly she


    didn''t want him to see Madelyn.


    Madelyn remained in a daze for a while.


    "Ms. Green?" The salesperson smiled and asked, "Do you have any other questions?"


    Madelyn snapped out of it and gave an apologetic smile.


    The salesperson quite liked her, as there were few customers who were as easy-going and


    amodating as her. Moreover, Ms. Green was pretty and kind.


    Afterpleting the necessary paperwork, Madelyn stepped out of the dealership.


    She had driven Benjamin''s car to the dealership that day. When she was about to get on, she heard a


    voice behind her saying, "Madelyn, let''s have a chat!"

 Chapter 108 Madelyn Was Good at Manipulating Others

    Chapter 108 Madelyn Was Good at Manipting Others


    Chapter 108 Madelyn Was Good at Manipting Others


    Madelyn closed the car door.


    Her eyes were red, and she stared at Elizabeth in anger.


    Elizabeth''s eyes fell on the red sports car, and she said in a mocking tone with jealousy, "Madelyn, do


    you despise me? In fact, we both live off men. Do you think you''re better than me?"


    Madelyn sneered.


    Madelyn asked, "So you think you''re not at fault for messing with others'' happiness? Don''t you feel


    guilty at all?"


    Elizabeth gave a brittleugh.


    She said to Madelyn, "Let''s go into the cafe! Madelyn, I''ve been meaning to talk to you after our ss


    reunion."


    Madelyn didn''t have anything to say to people like Elizabeth.


    But Madelyn still went into the cafe for Vivian''s sake.


    At Coffee Roasterie.


    Madelyn did not speak first because she was afraid she could not help pouring her cup of coffee over


    Elizabeth''s head.


    But Elizabeth seemed to have a lot to say.


    Elizabeth took a sip of coffee and smiled confidently, "Don''t think I hooked up with Jackson recently.


    I''ve been with him since I was in college!"


    Madelyn was surprised and also angry.


    Elizabeth gently stirred her coffee with a spoon and raised her eyebrows. "You don''t believe me?


    Madelyn, do you remember Jackson came to the Christmas party with Vivian? He was so handsome


    and generous. It was stupid of Vivian to introduce him to everyone in our dorm! And then that night... I


    had sex with Jackson! He was so happy afterward that he gave me an iPhone!"


    "Then he and I became friends with benefit. I slept with Jackson when Vivian was having her period,


    and he was so generous with me that he paid almost all of my college tuition."


    Madelyn''s blood almost froze.


    She couldn''t believe what she heard.


    After a long time, she gritted her teeth. "Didn''t you have a crush on Daniel back then? How did you end


    up hooking up with Jackson?"


    Elizabethughed so hard her body trembled.


    "Madelyn, you''re so naive!"


    "Is there a conflict between me loving Daniel and me having sex with Jackson? Besides, I managed to


    chase Daniel... Madelyn, do you want to know the story of Daniel and me?"


    The look in Elizabeth''s eyes was surprisingly seductive and provocative.


    Madelyn thought, " Elizabeth is cheap and shameless, and that''s why she could get what she wanted."


    Madelyn''s voice was cold. "No!"


    Elizabeth froze. She did not expect Madelyn to be interested in this story.


    As Elizabeth froze, Madelyn got up and prepared to take her leave.


    Elizabeth was panic-stricken and reached for Madelyn in a surprisingly strong grip.


    Madelyn frowned lightly.


    Elizabeth stopped pretending and showed her true colors. She gritted her teeth aggressively.


    "You said you didn''t want to know! But in fact, you are a merciless person. You once said you loved


    Daniel to death and tried everything you could to be his girlfriend. In the end... Madelyn, you''re already


    over him, but I stupidly gloated over having had sex with him a couple of times! Madelyn, you say you


    like Daniel, but were you moved when Daniel fought for you and went to the police twice, and got so


    drunk for you? Did you ever feel sorry for him since he''s been reduced to this? I''m telling you, my


    heart''s bleeding for him."


    Elizabeth said so much, but Madelyn remained unmoved.


    A wintry smile broke on Madelyn''s lips. "No. Elizabeth, you''re just acting bitchy!"


    Elizabeth sat down in dismay...


    Madelyn put a 20-dor bill on the coffee table and then left without saying anything.


    Madelyn got into her car.


    She held the phone for a while and didn''t know what to tell Vivian.


    Madelyn felt that it would be bad to tell Vivian the whole story, and even worse to hide it from her.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Therefore, Madelyn decided to wait for Vivian toe back from Gartown, meet her in person, and


    remind her euphemistically.


    But Vivian made a call to Madelyn that night.


    "Madelyn, can you get over here?"


    Madelyn sat up from the bed and hurriedly asked, "What happened?"


    Vivian just kept on crying and was slurring her words.


    Madelyn was well enlightened on the situation, pulled away the covers, and got up while saying, "Don''t


    do anything stupid. I''ll be right over!"


    Vivian was crying terribly at the end of the phone.


    Madelyn arrived at the vi where Vivian and her husband were staying. And all three of them were


    there.


    Elizabeth was wearing sexy strappy sleepwear, and her hair was very messy. Her face was scratched


    bleeding by Vivian, and she looked like a mess!


    Vivian was not any better. A few buttons came off her dress, and there were conspicuous p marks


    on her face.


    Madelyn''s heart sank.


    She guessed that it was Jackson who had hit Vivian.


    When Vivian saw Madelyn, she threw herself into Madelyn''s arms and cried.


    Vivian cried. "Madelyn... I want a divorce!"


    Of course, Madelyn hated Jackson for cheating on and also beating Vivian, but Madelyn couldn''t add


    fuel to the fire right at this moment.


    She helped Vivian sit down. Without giving a nce at Jackson and Elizabeth, she fetched ice to


    soothe Vivian''s wound.


    Madelyn felt guilty.


    If she had told Vivian in advance, Vivian would not have been got beaten.


    Vivian burst into tears. "He hit me for that bitch!"


    She held on to Madelyn, shaking with anger. "They''ve been together for years, and they''ve slept many


    times in my marital bed."


    Madelyn was heartbroken.


    She looked at Jackson to see what his attitude was.


    Jackson was in a fit of anger. He loved Vivian but Vivian had a terrible temper. On the contrary,


    Elizabeth was always subservient in front of him. She was gentle, made him Sexually gratified, and put


    him in a good mood.


    A man would always get his money''s worth.


    Jackson did not repent and said, "You can divorce me if you can''t stand this!"


    Vivian cried again after hearing this.


    Madelyn knew that Vivian didn''t want to get a divorce because she loved Jackson.


    Madelyn said to Jackson as calmly as she could, "Vivian and you have been together for years. How


    could you do this to her? Whether you decide to get divorced or not, you should at least be gentlemanly


    and decent."


    She knew exactly how average men thought and added, "Vivian is twenty-four years old, and you''re the


    only person she''s ever been in love with!"


    Sure enough, Jackson''s face softened at this.


    He pulled his shirt cor and said, less sulkily, "I just toy with Elizabeth. I don''t take her seriously!"


    He came over and reached out to take Vivian''s hand.


    Vivian was in a sad mood and refused to let him hold her hand.


    Jackson swallowed his pride and cheered her up. "All right, all right. I''m giving you an out! We have to


    go to Mom''s tomorrow... Stop crying. There will be hell to pay if Mom asks about it."


    Vivian reached out and hit him.


    But they clinched each other and rolled around on the floor as they fought.


    Madelyn was speechless, but she respected Vivian''s choice. The point was how Jackson was going to


    behave.


    Vivian and Jackson managed to patch it up...


    Elizabeth''s face turned white as a sheet.


    Elizabeth burned her boats today. She let Vivian catch Jackson being adulterous with her. Then she


    pushed Jackson to break up with Vivian. But Jackson the bastard said he just toyed with Elizabeth!


    Elizabeth covered her face and stared at Madelyn, smiling coldly.


    "Madelyn, you''re so good at manipting others! I''ve underestimated you."


    Before Madelyn could say anything, Jackson couldn''t wait to get rid of Elizabeth. "Get out, get out. We


    are done."


    Madelyn sighed when things came to this point.


    In the following days, Madelyn was busy with opening the music studio and was not able to meet


    Vivian.


    But Madelyn could tell from the phone call that Vivian and Jackson were just as sweet as they had


    been when they were newlyweds. Madelyn was not in a position to judge their marriage and thought


    that many women would properly choose to forgive their cheating partners like Vivian did.


    After a few busy days, Madelyn almost forgot about Benjamin, and they had little contact little each


    other.


    She went back to her apartment by the evening.


    The lights were on in the lobby of the apartment. Madelyn was startled and took a few quick steps.


    Sure enough, Benjamin was back.


    He was sitting on the couch talking on the phone with a suitcase by his side. It was obvious that he just


    got home.


    When Benjamin saw Madelyn, his eyes were loving.


    He waved at her gently.


    Madelyn changed her shoes and sat down next to him. Benjamin was talking business with his mobile


    phone in one hand and casually fondling her waist with the other... He kept his eyes on her face.

    Chapter 109 Benjamin, I Won''t Badger You


    Chapter 109 Benjamin, I Won''t Badger You


    Madelyn hadn''t seen Benjamin for a few days.


    At this moment, she was being held in his arms, and her heart could not help but melt.


    She reached out and gently touched his forehead, and found he was still burning up.


    Madelyn gently bit her lip.


    How did he take care of himself these days?


    Madelyn stroked his handsome face and mouthed, "I''ll go get the thermometer."


    Benjamin held her hand tightly to keep her from leaving. He quickly ended the call, pinned Madelyn


    down on the couch, and kissed her...


    Madelyn turned her face away.


    Her voice trembled. "Don''t do this... You are burning up."


    Benjamin pressed his face against her neck. He got so close to her that he could see the vellus hair on


    her neck, and it was cute.


    He said in a feeble voice, "What does it matter? I will probably get better faster."


    Madelyn did not want to let him kiss her.


    She turned to look at him, ran her long, pale fingers over his wonderful strong features, and said softly,


    "You''re sick. Just listen to me, okay?"


    Benjamin looked at her with downcast eyes.


    After a long time, he sat up. "Make some soup for me. I have to go to the officeter."


    Madelyn nodded.


    She went to the kitchen and made soup with the pressure cooker. She put artichokes in it. Then she


    brought the medical kit over and took Benjamin''s temperature.


    He was still running a low-grade fever. It was 102 degrees.


    Madelyn poured a ss of water and fetched him a fever-reducing pill.


    Benjamin, who usually didn''t take medicine, looked at Madelyn with dark eyes. "Feed me!"


    He was sick, and Madelyn did as he told and put the medicine to his lips.


    Benjamin gently licked the pill into his mouth with the tip of his tongue as he was staring at Madelyn.


    Her fingers felt wet.


    Madelyn blushed.


    She coaxed him to drink another half cup of warm water. When he felt better, she went to the kitchen to


    cook the artichoke soup. When she brought the soup to the dining room, she saw Benjamin sitting on


    the couch and smoking.


    He was still sick and coughed after just a few puffs of a cigarette.


    Madelyn went over, took the cigarette from his hand, and gently put it out.


    Benjamin didn''t get mad at her, but leaned back on the couch and lifted his chin, gesturing for Madelyn


    to feed him the soup.


    Madelyn still humored him.


    She wondered what kind of person would be able to be his wife who could put up with his fussy nature.


    But no matter what, she could not say no to Benjamin now.


    When Madelyn fed him the soup, he started to get a bit handsy with her.


    Madelyn just put up with it until she finished feeding him a bowl of soup. Before she could put the bowl


    away, he pulled her into hisp.


    "Benjamin ... You''re sick."


    Madelyn tried to push him away.


    Benjamin was kissing her, holding her chin with one hand, and touching her private parts with the


    other...


    He whispered to her ear in a husky voice, "Don''t move. Just feel it!"


    ...


    Half an hourter, Madelyn changed her clothes in the dressing room.


    She felt her heart melt as she thought about what had just happened.


    For the first time, Benjamin considered her feelings and made her feel sexuallyfortable and


    amazing, instead of only focusing on his own physical pleasure.


    "Madelyn, did you get changed?"


    Benjamin''s hoarse voice rang out from outside, and Madelyn didn''t dare to think about it further, and


    hurriedly got herself fixed up.


    Inside the elevator.


    She couldn''t help but whisper, "You need to rest! Can''t you put your work off until tomorrow?"


    Benjamin looked at her. "I have a meeting to run."


    Madelyn didn''t try to persuade him. If she tried it anymore, she would overstep the bounds, which


    would annoy him and also upset herself.


    When they got to the ground floor parking lot, Madelyn unlocked a white BMW.


    Benjamin narrowed his eyes.


    Apparently, Madelyn just bought this new car. But the bill of the card that he gave her showed no big


    spending. It meant Madelyn bought the car with her own money.


    Benjamin got into the passenger seat.


    He gently loosened his tie and asked inadvertently, "Why didn''t you pay with my card?"


    Madelyn did not want to have a row with him and said vaguely, "My dad is fine, and my family is doing


    good financially. Cam gave me some money, and I bought the car..."


    Benjamin gently put his hand on the steering wheel to stop her from starting the car.


    "And what else?"


    Madelyn did not intend to hide it from him, so she simply told him, "I''m going to start a music studio with


    my old colleagues, and I''ve done all the preparatory work."


    After saying that, she quietly looked at him.


    Although she was an independent individual and did not need his permission to do anything, it would


    be better if they had fewer disagreements.


    Benjamin withdrew his hand.


    He leaned back in his seat and asked softly, "You''re not going to study at Monatiz?"


    Madelyn didn''t expect him to ask this.


    She couldn''t help but overthink it, and after a moment of deliberation, she said softly, "Don''t worry, Mr.


    rk. If that dayes, I won''t badger you, much less destroy anything. Whether I go to Monatiz or


    not, our rtionship will be over."


    When Madelyn made this promise, her eyes turned red.


    Benjamin looked at her quietly.


    This was not a pleasant conversation, and they knew well how they would end up.


    Benjamin hadn''t seen her for a few days. They were just having a fling in the apartment, and she had


    taken such good care of him. He would have been a jerk if he bullied her again.


    He just smiled gently. "What''s going on in there? You even called me Mr. rk... From my perspective,


    I think it''s good for girls to make their own careers."


    Madelyn was relieved.


    Benjamin was really good at lightening the mood. Not only did he have no objection but also gave


    Madelyn some professional advice.


    Madelyn was delighted.


    She finally felt chilled and talked to him about the music studio as she was driving. She mentioned the


    difficulty of finding a venue. "But I''m sure I''ll find somece! Penelope is quite well-connected."


    She shared her joy with him.


    Benjamin was patient. The tension was reconciled before he went on a business trip. When he was


    getting out of the car, Madelyn volunteered. "Shall I pick you up tonight?"


    Benjaminughed and said slowly, "What guy wants to be picked up by a woman from work every day?


    I will feel ashamed if this gets out."


    Madelyn didn''t insist and told him to take his temperature.


    "If you''re still not feeling well, I''ll go with you to the hospital tomorrow."


    Benjamin smiled and opened the car door to get out.


    He entered the office, and the first thing he did was not to have a meeting but to call Paisley in.


    "I need you to check Ms. Green''s credit card purchases."


    Paisley was confused.


    Then she guessed that Mr. rk must have had a problem with Ms. Green.


    She immediately started to do it, and within ten minutes, she put the materials in front of Benjamin and


    said, "This is the purchase history of Mr. rk''s supplementary card."


    Benjamin asked Paisley to leave.


    He quietly looked at the statement and then leaned back in his chair.


    He thought to himself, "She didn''t spend my money at all. She even bought the car with her own


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    money. And she starts her own business."


    Benjamin thought it was a decision made by a woman of a good upbringing. He never doubted


    Madelyn''s character and knew that she was unimpressed by money and was easily satisfied.


    But he was willing to support Madelyn. He wouldpensate her even if they split someday. But it was


    not now.


    What she was doing now was not what Benjamin wanted!


    He wanted a rtionship that was more pure.


    But Benjamin knew about Madelyn''s temperament. If he didn''t respect her feelings, she would no


    longer be gentle with him, or no longer look at him with affection and take care of him!


    Weighing all the pros and cons, Benjamin relented.


    He leaned over and pressed the phone button. "Paisley, can youe in here for a sec?"


    Paisley thought he was getting ready for a meeting, but when he entered, he saw Mr. rk sipping his


    coffee and asking indifferently, "Is there a storefront in my name that is about 2,000 square feet and


    well-located?"

    Chapter 110 I''m Your Boyfriend


    Chapter 110 I''m Your Boyfriend


    Paisley was bemused.


    She made a joke. "Mr. rk, do you want to run a cafe?"


    Benjamin leaned back in his leather chair and sipped his coffeefortably before saying after a while,


    "Madelyn wants to open a music studio."


    Thinking that Mr. rk had just asked him to check the statements, Paisley knew that Madelyn fell out


    with Mr. rk.


    Mr. rk wanted to make up with Madelyn!


    Paisley immediately checked for it and said, "There is no storefront of 2,000 square feet. But there''s a


    4,300-square-foot office on Millview Road. It''s well-decorated and has been empty."


    "Alright! You find the key."


    Benjamin thought about it and said, "Bring me all the brochures on thetest fashions and jewelry of


    the season."


    Paisley was surprised.


    Paisley had never seen Mr. rk go this far to cheer a woman up. Mr. rk had always been


    generous, but this was the first time he had been so attentive to a woman.


    Paisley walked out of the office.


    Benjamin continued to drink his coffee...


    He liked Madelyn, who always took care of him. Benjamin thought it was worth it if he made little effort


    in exchange for a great rtionship.


    He chose some expensive clothes and jewelry and had them delivered to the apartment on Saturday.


    After that, he went into the conference room for a meeting.


    ...


    It was 11:00 p.m. when Benjamin finished his work. His driver drove him back to his apartment.


    Madelyn was still up. She was sitting on the carpet in front of the sofa in her pajamas, with a few


    reports scattered on the coffee table.


    As soon as Benjamin returned, she put them away.


    "I made a midnight snack. Would you like to have some?"


    Benjamin took off his jacket and threw it on the sofa back, leaned over, and kissed her for a while.


    After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice, "I''ll take a shower ande out for a snackter!"


    Madelyn thoughtfully brought him pajamas. When he came out of the shower, she took his


    temperature.


    Luckily, his fever was down to 100 degrees.


    "Drink more water. Your fever wille down tomorrow." Madelyn smiled.


    Benjamin liked being taken care of by her physically and mentally. He was eating a midnight snack and


    suddenly asked, "Have you... Have you ever taken care of Daniel like this before?"


    Madelyn froze.


    But before she could say anything, Benjamin just dropped this topic.


    He smiled faintly. "I was just wondering."


    Madelyn felt there was nothing to shy away from and said in a soft voice, "Hmm. It''s natural for lovers


    to take care of each other."


    "But you broke up."


    Madelyn''s chin rested on one hand, and the fingers of her other hand stroked over the bridge of his


    nose.


    He was so handsome!


    Madelyn told him the truth. "Of course, there is no need to care for each other after a breakup."


    She thought about it and said, "It''s better that we don''t contact each other."


    Madelyn felt that this was the answer Benjamin wanted, so she told him honestly. But Benjamin was


    not very happy to hear it. He frowned and did not say anything.


    When they went to bed at night, Benjamin only kissed her for a while and didn''t do anything further.


    Madelyn thought he was probably too tired...


    There were times when a man was unable to maintain an erection!


    ...


    Early in the morning, Benjamin confirmed that she was wrong.


    He went for a morning run as soon as he just recovered. Madelyn got out of bed and went to make


    breakfast.


    The doorbell rang.


    Madelyn thought Benjamin didn''t have his keys with him, so she went to open the door without


    thinking.


    Outside the door stood a noblewoman.


    She was wearing designer clothes. She was apanied by a driver, who carried all the tonic in his


    hand.


    The visitor was Benjamin''s mother, Brianna.


    Brianna was overjoyed to see Madelyn.


    Brianna had heard from Eloise that Ben moved in with someone. She didn''t believe it at first, but now it


    turned out it was true. Besides, the woman Ben was living with was her acquaintance.


    Brianna was joyful, but Madelyn was uptight.


    She greeted Brianna and weed her in.


    Brianna asked the driver to bring in the tonic and then sent him away, afraid that he would scare


    Madelyn.


    Brianna sat on the couch, sipping the coffee Madelyn had made for her. She stared at Madelyn right in


    the face.


    Well... Madelyn was not bad!


    The house changed quite a bit. It looked like they had been living together for quite a while.


    Brianna let Madelyn sit down and amiably asked her a few casual questions. She asked Madelyn about


    her astrological sign.


    Madelyn knew that Brianna had misunderstood something, but she couldn''t exin. After all, she


    indeed slept with Brianna''s son.


    Madelyn whispered, "Taurus."


    Taurus?


    Brianna thanked God in her heart, "God bless Ben. She''s a Taurus, and she''s already living with Ben


    now. There is hope that Ben will get married before he is 30."


    Brianna was sure of this and much kinder to Madelyn.


    She treated Madelyn like her daughter-inw, and invited her to Eloise''s birthday party! It was hard for


    Madelyn to turn down an invitation like that. Madelyn didn''t feel she could say no, and Benjamin was


    back at this moment!


    He looked at the tonic piled up in the living room and shifted his eyes to his mother.


    Benjamin calmly asked, "Mom, what are you doing here?"


    Brianna gave Benjamin a gentle nce and said, "I heard Paisley say you are not feeling well. I was


    worried about you, so I just dropped off tonics and wanted to check on you. I am relieved that you have


    someone to look after you."


    Brianna sneaked a wink at Benjamin and thought, "Madelyn is a Taurus..."


    Benjamin nced at Madelyn, who felt out of ce.


    He said to his mother, "Madelyn and I have to go to workter. You go back first. I saw Asher


    downstairs."


    Brianna, who had seen her daughter-inw-to-be for the first time, did not want to leave.


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Brianna took off her Chanel jacket and watch worth hundreds of thousands of dors, and said gently,


    "You and Madelyn go and get changed. I''m going to make breakfast for you. Fill your stomach before


    you go to work!"


    Benjamin slowly wiped the sweat from his face with a towel and then nced at Madelyn.


    Madelyn was particrly embarrassed.


    He suddenly smiled, "Okay." With that, he took Madelyn into the master bedroom.


    When the door closed, he teased her, "My mother hasn''t cooked in decades. Thanks to Ms. Green, I''m


    going to eat the meal she makes."


    Madelyn bit her lower lip.


    She was not that stupid and sensed something wrong, "I think she misunderstood me and thought I''m


    your girlfriend."


    Benjamin wrapped his arms around her waist and leaned over to kiss her.


    After a long, passionate kiss, he rested his forehead against hers and asked, "Aren''t you my


    girlfriend?"


    Madelyn tilted her head, and her eyes were misty.


    She murmured, "I know I''m not."


    Benjamin pecked the corner of her mouth and spoke to her in a hoarse voice, "I don''t have a wife. And


    I don''t have any other woman except you. We sleep in the same bed every night, and we''ve done


    intimate stuff... Madelyn, do you still think you''re not my girlfriend?"


    He was worthy of being awyer.


    Madelyn couldn''t argue with that. She was so angry that her eyes turned red.


    "I don''t want to lie to your mother."


    Benjamin let out a lowugh.


    He gently opened the door and whispered cajolingly in Madelyn''s ear, "How about we tell her right now


    that we''re just friends with benefits, and that we''re only living together temporarily? When we''re tired of


    this rtionship, we''ll split up! Madelyn, are you going to tell her that?"


    "Damn you!"


    Benjamin was about to say something when Brianna''s gentle voice rang out in the living room, "Ben,


    Madelyn... Have you guys changed yet?"


    Brianna was thrilled to be a mother-inw for the first time.


    Brianna reached out to knock gently on the door, but before her hand touched the door, it just opened.


    Ben, who didn''t want to get married, held Madelyn down on the couch, held her face in his hands and


    kissed her...


    Brianna''s face flushed.


    Ben was...

 Chapter 111 Ms. Green, Youre Glib-Tongued

    Chapter 111 Ms. Green, You''re Glib-Tongued


    Chapter 111 Ms. Green, You''re Glib-Tongued


    Brianna closed the door behind her.


    Ben was stillying on top of Madelyn.


    She pushed him angrily, "You did that on purpose!"


    "Yeah! Do you want to punish me?" Benjamin''s voice was a bit seductive.


    Madelyn gazed at his handsome face in front of her and felt a bit horny too.


    But she had to consider Brianna''s feelings and said softly, "Get up, your mother is out there."


    Benjamin''s dark eyes blinked at her. He neither moved nor made a sound.


    "Benjamin..."


    Benjamin lowered his head, pecked on her lips, and then reached over and fetch a file.


    Madelyn sat up.


    "This is..."


    Benjamin sat up with a smile on his lips. "Open it."


    Madelyn opened it, puzzled.


    Inside was a contract on the transfer of the right to use the building. The 4,300 square foot office space


    in a prime location was only rented for 30 thousand dors a year. There were some photos and a key


    inside.


    Madelyn was stricken dumb with amazement.


    She looked up at him, "Is this your office building? You''re willing to rent it to me?"


    She knew a little bit about the rental market. It was impossible to rent an office of this size in such a


    good location for 300 thousand dors a year, let alone 30 thousand dors.


    Benjamin merely said, "Hmm".


    He wrapped the towel around her slender neck and pulled it so gently that Madelyn was forced to lift


    her face and press her forehead to his. They were close that they would kiss each other if one of them


    moved.


    Madelyn gazed at him.


    At this moment, she felt his care and respect for her.


    Women''s hearts were always softened.


    He took the initiative to address her concerns, and she was willing to return his love.


    Madelyn blushed, moved forward, and kissed his lips gently.


    Benjamin didn''t close his eyes. He watched with downcast eyes how Madelyn kissed him. She was a


    bad kisser, but it felt really good to kiss her...


    After the kiss, he gently took her by the waist and whispered, " So are we good?"


    Madelyn did not say anything, but her eyes were much tenderer.


    She looked attractive like this, arousing his desire to make love to her...


    Considering that his mother was still in the house, Benjamin did not dare to do anything to Madelyn,


    and said again in a hoarse voice, "Come on. We are back together, okay?"


    Benjamin was giving her an out. It seemed that Madelyn had to get over it.


    She thought about it and said, "I don''t think 30 thousand dors is enough. How about 70 thousand


    dors?"


    Benjamin didn''t bargain with her, gave her a kiss, and went to take a shower. When he pulled open the


    bathroom door, he turned to look at Madelyn. "My mom..."


    Madelyn said with affection, "I don''t mind calling Brianna Mom if it makes her happy. "


    Benjamin stared at her and chuckled softly for a long time, "Ms. Green, you have a glib tongue."


    He was in a good mood when he took his shower.


    When he came out of the bathroom, Madelyn was serving breakfast at the table with Brianna.


    In the morning light, Madelyn was meek and likable. Benjamin could tell that his mother was fond of


    Madelyn, so he was more willing to humor Madelyn.


    They all had a great time eating breakfast.


    Brianna kept mentioning casually that one of her friends had a lovely granddaughter recently. She


    asked Madelyn, "Maddie, do you like kids?"


    Madelyn was drinking milk and choked, getting a little bit of milk on the tip of her nose.


    Benjamin wiped her nose with a tissue.


    He got a gentle touch, but his gaze was intense.


    Madelyn had had sex with him several times, and her face burned when she recalled something. But


    she had to pretend she didn''t notice his gaze and answered Brianna. "I like kids! I want to have two


    kids."


    There was tenderness in her eyes when she said this.


    Madelyn was not lying, and that was indeed part of her life n. She wanted to be rted by blood to


    someone and have her own children...


    Hearing this, Brianna was so happy that she was lost for words. She immediately put a soft-boiled egg


    on Madelyn''s te. She was in a talkative mood. "Few young people today are willing to have two


    children. Maddie, you would make a good mother."


    Madelyn snapped back to her senses.


    She looked at the father of her future child, who was drinking coffee and carefully reading the morning


    paper.


    But under the table, his foot brushed against Madelyn''s calf.


    Madelyn kicked him then!


    Benjamin nced at her, then put down his coffee cup and said to Brianna, "Madelyn is willing to have


    a baby, but it also depends on whether I want to have children."


    Brianna was even more moved, and her eyes were shining with tears as if she saw her cute little


    grandchildren running towards her and calling her grandma...


    They had a lively conversation.


    Madelyn admired Benjamin for having a way with women and also a few tricks up his sleeve for his


    own mother.


    While Madelyn went to get changed, Benjamin walked Brianna downstairs.


    In the elevator.


    There were only Benjamin and Brianna in the elevator, and Brianna had a heart-to-heart talk with him.


    "Ben, I''m happy to see you settle down! I don''t need you to marry a woman from a prominent pedigree.


    I just want you to have a very happy life. Madelyn is a good girl. I can tell that she''s so into you... You


    should humor her. After all, you are four years older than she is!"


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apples moved.

    He merely said, "Hmm."


    Brianna asked him to take Madelyn to Eloise''s birthday party, and Benjamin agreed. He walked Brianna


    to the car and opened the door for her.


    Brianna was about to get in the car but then turned around.


    She hesitated for a while before she said, "Ben, Eleanor''s back!"


    Benjamin froze.


    Eleanor was back!


    Brianna''s beautiful eyes were a little sad. "I heard from your Uncle Bet that Eleanor stops trying to


    fool around and gets engaged to a showbiz mogul. Ben, Mom knows you can''t let go of your


    rtionship with Eleanor, but that was when you were young. After all these years, it''s time for you to


    move on! Madelyn is a good girl. Don''t break her heart."


    Benjamin clenched his hand into a fist and then unclenched it.


    He forced a smile. "Don''t worry. Mom, I know."


    "I''m afraid you will screw things up!" Brianna was worried. "Madelyn is good-looking and has a nice


    personality. She''s even a Taurus. She is a rare soul... Ben, if you break up with her, I''ll give you


    problems."


    Benjamin smiled faintly.


    Brianna got into the car and left.


    Benjamin watched the car leave. He did not immediately go upstairs but smoked a few cigarettes


    downstairs.


    Eleanor... She was back...


    Benjamin''s eyes were scarlet.


    How dare shee back?


    He and Eleanor were childhood friends because of their father''s rtionship. He loved Eleanor, who


    was pretty and passionate. He respected her and didn''t cross any lines. He decided not to have sex


    with her before the wedding night...


    On Valentine''s Day senior year, he took an 18-hour flight to Monatiz. But he opened the apartment door


    and saw Eleanor having sex with a man.


    The floor was full of their used condoms...


    No matter how much Eleanor cried, begged, and promised again and again that she would never do


    such a thing again, Benjamin still broke up with her.


    Benjamin left the apartment and walked upstairs.


    He pulled out a small velvet box expressionlessly.


    Inside was a diamond ring.


    He was going to propose to Eleanor that day, but he didn''t do that. And he would never propose to any


    woman again.


    Benjamin was no longer dreaming to get married. It was not like he had no right woman to marry over


    the years.


    It was that he didn''t think about getting married anymore.

    Chapter 112 Mr. rk, Discipline Your Woman


    Chapter 112 Mr. rk, Discipline Your Woman


    Benjamin returned to his apartment.


    He looked pale. When Madelyn saw he didn''t look fine, she asked softly, "What happened?"


    Benjamin gazed at her with dark eyes.


    Madelyn changed her outfit into a dark floral dress with a long champagne-colored suit over it. She


    wore her waist-length, sandy hair down her back. She was beautiful and sweet.


    Benjamin beckoned Madelyn toe over.


    He rested his chin on her shoulder, and he said in a husky voice, "I called Cam before. It was your


    birthday the other day. How about I throw you a birthday party on Saturday?"


    Madelyn was ttered.


    Benjamin raised his head, kissed her for a moment, and then said, "Take me to the office."


    Madelyn thought something was bothering him.


    She was not stupid at all. She guessed it had something to do with the woman he loved secretly.


    Instead of asking him about it, Madelyn put her arms around his neck and pouted, "I''ll drive my sugar


    papa to work every day if you want."


    Benjaminughed.


    He patted herzily and walked to the dressing room to change his clothes.


    Madelyn walked up to the morningdew piano and gently stroked it... Benjamin was a good lover, but he


    was definitely not a good husband.


    He doted on her, but would not love her.


    Madelyn was d that she realized it early, otherwise, she would lose her head, dere her love to him


    in the near future, and tell him that she wanted to live with him forever...


    Madelyn could effortlessly imagine his answer.


    "Madelyn..."


    Benjamin came out of the changing room and saw she was lost in thought...


    When Madelyn looked at Benjamin, who was so perfectly put together, she smiled faintly. "Mr. rk is


    very handsome today!"


    Benjamin curled his lips upward.


    Madelyn drove him to the office, and none of them spoke. Benjamin whispered when he got out of the


    car. "I''ll probably have a lot to do in the next few days."


    "I know... You always have a lot on your te." Madelyn was very understanding.


    Benjamin thought about it for a second and leaned over to kiss her.


    Madelyn put her hands on the steering wheel and joked with him, "Benjamin, it''s only been a few days,


    but it seems like we''re an old married couple. Your kiss is perfunctory."


    Benjamin was in a bad mood in the first ce.


    But at this moment, he seemed toe alive after being teased by her.


    Anyway, he found it quite stimting!


    He looked at her and chuckled. "You wait! I''m gonna screw you hard when I''m done with work!"


    Madelyn looked at him with a faint smile. "Alright, I''ll wait."


    After Benjamin got out of the car and went into the office, Madelyn sat in the car and quietly thought, "It


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    seems to be true... Thest person Benjamin wants to see is back in the country..."


    Madelyn didn''t think too much about it.


    Then she met Penelope at a coffee shop. Penelope rushed in, took off her sunsses, and said, "It''s a


    hot day..."


    Penelope gulped down a cup of iced coffee.


    "Ah, so good!" Penelope leaned back in her chair as she sorrowfully confided in Madeline about renting


    an office.


    Madelyn put a contract in front of her.


    "I think this will quench your thirst more than iced coffee."


    Penelope picked it up doubtfully, and when she read it, she was shocked.


    God!


    She never expected anything like this.


    Was the newly renovated office of 4,300 square feet only rented for 70 thousand dors per year?


    Penelope read it carefully and kissed Madely hard. "Madelyn, you are magnificent! It must have taken a


    lot of work to get this contract, right?"


    Penelope was single, but that didn''t stop her from imagining Madelyn''s sexual encounters with


    Benjamin.


    She was thrilled at the thought of it!


    Madelyn awkwardly flipped her hair and said, "It wasn''t that hard. He offered it to me."


    Penelope was satisfied.


    She said, "Women have to think about themselves. You live with him, but he has not publicly


    acknowledged that you are his girlfriend or promised you anything. He should give you those decent


    gifts... Anyway, thank you so much for this."


    Penelope was candid and generous. She deliberated a bit and raised Madelyn''s gratuitously


    transferred shares to 40%.


    Madelyn thought it was fair.


    They enjoyed their coffee and chatted a bit.


    Penelope was well-informed. She knew that Madelyn was close to Vivian, so she had to remind


    Madelyn. "What''s going on with Viviantely? Isn''t her husband a reformed man? But I saw him get a


    room with Elizabeth in a hotelst night."


    Madelyn was shocked.


    She was lost in thought for a moment before she slowly stirred her coffee and said, "Vivian probably


    doesn''t know about it."


    As an outsider, Penelope had rather not say too much. She just replied a few words evasively and


    brought this conversation to a conclusion.


    Madelyn, however, took it very seriously.


    When she got in the car, she called Vivian, and before she could say anything, Vivian spoke, "Madelyn,


    you want to ask about Jackson''s affair with Elizabeth, don''t you?"


    Madelyn sighed softly and didn''t say anything.


    Vivian''s voice was tense and even trembling.


    She said, "I don''t have a choice. I know he''s a bastard, but I love him... And my family has depended


    on him all these years. Madelyn, I know you despise me, but... I can''t afford to get a divorce! Madelyn, I


    can''t get a divorce! If he doesn''t bring those mistresses home to fu*k around with, I will just turn a blind


    eye."


    At this point, Madelyn wasn''t going to talk her out of anything.


    But Vivian was her best friend, and she couldn''t just sit by and watch.


    She sang and drank with Vivian.


    Vivian drank a lot of wine, cried, andughed bitterly. "Madelyn, howe we are so unlucky that our


    boyfriends cheated on us with Elizabeth? Is she that sexually attractive? She''s not as good-looking as


    us. And we''re much hotter than her. Why do men like her?"


    "Is it because she''s a slut?"


    After pondering that for a moment, Madelyn thought Vivian was right.


    Madelyn told Vivian stuff that she wanted to hear. "She will meet the man who will make her pay!"


    Vivian slumped over the table, and her speech was slurred. "She can only fool Jackson, that jerk!


    Madelyn, you know that, don''t you? Thest time Elizabeth went to Daniel''s, she was beaten to death.


    She even seduced Benjamin. But they didn''t even look at her. Only Jackson screws with her. He''s such


    an idiot!"


    Finally, Vivian threw up all over the toilet!


    When she sobered up a bit, Madelyn hugged her and whispered, "Vivian, you should get a divorce!"


    Madelyn thought, "Vivian is only 24 years old, young and beautiful. Jimmy is just not worth it. It would


    be better if she cuts her losses in time, starts a career, or find a new boyfriend!"


    Vivian froze for a moment.


    She murmured. "I want to! I want to get a divorce, but I''m not resigned myself to this. I''ve been with him


    for years. It''s all ruined by a bitch."


    Madelyn''s heart sank.


    She called Jackson and asked him toe pick Vivian up.


    When Jackson answered the phone, he was very polite, but he wouldn''te to pick Vivian up.


    He said, "Madelyn, you just stay out of this! I''m cheating on Vivian but I don''t take Elizabeth seriously.


    Isn''t Vivian at fault? What man can stand her temper?"


    Madelyn was furious.


    She said coldly, "You can divorce her if you can''t stand it! If you had divorced her earlier, I wouldn''t


    have stopped you from dating young girls. But why do you upset Vivian right now by sleeping with a


    woman we both know? Jackson, you love fooling around, but we women do not want to be with


    promiscuous men like you."


    Jackson looked at his phone in disbelief.


    Was Madelyn speaking?


    Howe she had a worse temper than Vivian? Howe she was so aggressive?


    What did Benjamin like about her?


    Jackson wondered, "Does Benjamin like it when she criticizes him and calls men for their promiscuous


    private lives?"


    Coincidentally, Jackson and Benjamin were at the same dinner party.


    Others thought it was Jackson''s wife checking up on him, so they made fun of him. "Is Vivian giving


    you a hard time again?"


    Jackson got drunk.


    He looked at Benjamin andughed. "Mr. rk, it''s your woman. She used me of being a


    promiscuous man. Why don''t you give her a lecture?"

 Chapter 113 Im the One Behind Her

    Chapter 113I''m the One Behind Her


    Chapter 113 I''m the One Behind Her


    When Jackson said that, the whole room was quiet.


    Someone nudged him. "Jackson, stop it! Go pick Vivian up! Don''t sink to women''s level and argue with


    her."


    Jackson was drunk and tongue-tied.


    He threw tantrums. "I just slept a woman. Vivian doesn''t even dare to say anything. How dare Madelyn,


    an outsider, interfere with my business? Who the hell is behind her?"


    The room became even quieter.


    Benjamin chuckled.


    He wiped his mouth with a napkin and got up. "I''m leaving!"


    Someone asked him to stay. "Mr. rk, don''t go. Jackson drank too much and offended you. Why don''t


    we punish him with three sses of wine to get over this whole thing?"


    Benjamin wore a half-smile.


    He looked at Jackson, who had sobered up and said gently, "You just asked who was behind Madelyn.


    I''m telling you, it''s me, Benjamin! Madelyn is my woman. I never raise my voice to her. How dare you


    speak ill of her in front of me?"


    Jackson was in a trance.


    Benjamin smiled coolly. "I didn''t want to attend this dinner today. But I''m here because of Madelyn,


    who''s intimate with Vivian! I''ll take Vivian home if you''re not gonna pick her up."


    Benjamin left after he said that.


    After Benjamin left, the room was quiet for a long time. Someone patted Jackson''s shoulder. "Apologize


    to Mr. rk! Jackson, no matter how slut those women are, you could only have fun with them and


    couldn''t take them seriously. Elizabeth has a bad reputation, and you mustn''t do anything stupid, or


    you''ll beughed at by people in our circles."


    Jackson wiped his face.


    He feltpletely and undeniably sober, and hesitantly asked, "What about Benjamin and Madelyn?"


    Jackson thought, "Benjamin is not serious about Madelyn, is he?"


    Because Benjamin was known in the industry as a workaholic who didn''t want to get married, Jackson


    didn''t believe Madelyn would marry Benjamin someday.


    Othersughed.


    "Whether or not Mr. rk and Madelyn will get married, he cares about Madelyn! Have you ever seen


    Mr. rk embarrass anyone in public? Have you ever seen Mr. rk defend a woman like that?"


    "You haven''t, right? Congrattions, Jackson!"


    ...


    As soon as the persuader finished speaking, Jackson ran out the door at lightning speed.


    Finally, he found Madelyn and Vivian at a bar.


    But there was no sight of Benjamin.


    Jackson was furious!


    He was fooled!


    But Jackson couldn''t leave his wife here. He went over and patted Vivian''s shoulder. "You can say


    whatever you want to me at home. Look how embarrassed I was in front of my friends."


    Vivian was washing her face.


    When she heard Jackson''s voice, she froze.


    Jackson said with a guilty conscience, "I told you I didn''t take Elizabeth seriously! You''re the only wife


    I''ve got."


    Vivian''s eyes turned red, and she slowly washed her hands.


    She said calmly, "Let''s talk about it when we get back. I don''t want to be embarrassed in front of my


    friend here."


    Madelyn was worried about Vivian.


    Vivian smiled bitterly, "Madelyn, just don''t look down on me. Come out and eat with me when you have


    time."


    Madelyn felt sad when she heard that.


    She wanted to tell Jackson to be nice to Vivian, but she couldn''t get it out.


    Jackson cheated on Vivian again and again. How could he be nice to Vivian?


    Madelyn drove back home.


    She was in a bad mood and parked her car downstairs. After a long time, she turned it off and went


    upstairs.


    It was now nine o ''clock, and Benjamin was already back.


    He was sitting on the couch watching TV and seemed to be waiting for her.


    Madelyn raised her eyebrows and looked at him.


    Benjamin patted the seat beside him. "Ms. Green, what happened?"


    Madelyn went over and leaned against him submissively.


    Benjamin heard what she had said on Jackson''s phone. He found Madelyn to be quite multifaceted.


    She was usually overwhelmed and blushed in front of him, and her heart beat fast. But when she was


    scolding Jackson, she was aggressive and fierce.


    He was thrilled at this.


    Originally, he wanted to wait until Saturday to celebrate her birthday before having sex with her.


    But now he had a strong desire to have sex with her.


    He pinned Madelyn to the couch and kissed her. Madelyn didn''t want to make love at first, but


    Benjamin knew her body so well that he easily turned her on.


    Their clothes were scattered all over the floor.


    Madelyn''s eyes were lustful, and she looked like she was immersed in sexual pleasure.


    Benjamin loved it when she was besotted with the pleasures of the flesh...


    Benjamin''s cell phone rang when they were both passionate.


    The phone kept ringing. "Beep, beep, beep..." Benjamin turned a blind eye to it, but Madelyn couldn''t


    concentrate. She nudged him. "The phone..."


    "Ignore it!" Then Benjamin stuck his tongue down her throat.


    The phone stopped ringing. But a momentter, it rang again...


    Madelyn kissed him on the lips.


    "You answer the phone. We''ll continueter!"


    Benjamin looked deep into her eyes for a long moment before releasing her and turning over in bed to


    answer the phone himself.


    "Uncle Bet... It''s Ben speaking."


    Madelyn wore Benjamin''s shirt and was going to head back to the master bedroom.


    But she had barely taken a few steps before Benjamin hugged her. He put his arm around her slender


    waist and touched her body casually. Madelyn couldn''t stand it and fell into his arms.


    Benjamin gazed down at her.


    He was good-looking. At this moment, he was so charming and mature and looked like a womanizer.


    Madelyn couldn''t stop kissing him on the chin. He had a little stubble tonight, and it hurt her a little.


    Benjamin stared at her when he was talking to William.


    William sounded very excited.


    He said, "Ben, I''ve found the jewelry middleman! It won''t be hard to find my child."


    Benjamin caressed Madelyn''s lips and smiled lightly, "Congrattions, Uncle Bet."


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    William let out a soft sigh.


    He felt so low again. "Unfortunately, that guy had a car ident two days ago and is still in aa...


    Ben, I''m afraid he''ll be a veggie. Then I may never find Madeline and my child."


    Benjamin took a breath.


    Madelyn gently bit his finger.


    His gaze was deep...


    William on the other side of the phone frowned, "Ben, did something happen to you there?"


    Benjamin chuckled softly. "I was bitten by a cat... Uncle Bet, you don''t have to worry. I will find the


    experts to treat him and let him get well as soon as possible so that you can reunite with your wife."


    Speaking of this, William let out another soft sigh.


    He said, "Ben, "It''s been so many years. She might have remarried! I just want to see her. I want to


    know if she is doing well, and the child... I meditatively feel it''s a girl. Ben... Ben...Ben, are you


    listening?"


    Benjamin was flirted by Madelyn and couldn''t help but make love to her.


    He suppressed his passion and gasped softly.


    "Uncle Bet, I''m listening!"


    William muttered to himself, "She is already 24 years old and old enough to get married."


    Benjamin was making love to the girl in his arms. He found it particrly interesting and even had time


    tofort William. "Uncle Bet, my aunt is good-looking, so your little girl must be pretty. She must


    have a bright future. She''s probably married and has kids..."


    William was quite relieved.


    He sighed softly. "I have been worried these days about what if my daughter meets a man who cheats


    and ys with women''s feelings. I''m d to hear what you said, Ben."


    ...


    "Ben... Are you listening?"


    "Ben?"

    Chapter 114 William Prepared To Take a DNA Test


    Benjamin lifted his chiseled, handsome face and gritted his teeth. "Uncle Bet... I''m listening."


    He gazed down at Madelyn.


    Benjamin was so pleased to see Madelyn''s horny look that he became even more aroused. William


    heard something erotic from the other end of the line.


    William used to be Benjamin''s age and figured out what was going on.


    He cleared his throat lightly. "Ben, it''ste. I''ll let you get back to it."


    William hung up the phone.


    William really missed the child he hadn''t met and thought, "If it were a daughter, I hope she wouldn''t


    find a boyfriend like Ben. He''s indisputably excellent butpletely consumed by pleasures of the


    flesh."


    Ben couldn''t even wait for his uncle to hang up the phone before he had sex with a woman!


    Ben was so horny!


    No way!


    William would never let his daughter have a boyfriend like Ben!


    He smiled ruefully again. He couldn''t find his child, but now he even thought to himself that he did not


    allow his child to find a boyfriend like Ben. Currently, Ben''s girlfriend was Ms. Green, and they seemed


    to be a good match...


    ...


    Benjamin threw away his phone.


    He had a great time making love tonight...


    They did spend a couple of days having sex after they made up. After they came home from work at


    night, except for eating and showering, they spent all their time hugging and kissing and then naturally


    having sex...


    Madelyn admitted that she was a bit obsessed with making love to him.


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Benjamin was so good-looking, sexually passionate, and knew a lot about women sexually. There was


    no way she didn''t feel anything about it.


    They had sex several times on Saturday night.


    Benjamin leaned over the bed to rest and habitually lit a cigarette.


    Madelyn loved it when he smoked and his cheeks were sunken. She thought he looked so manly that


    way.


    Benjamin''s cell phone rang.


    He took it over and looked at it, smoking.


    Madelyn, who finished showering and was putting skin care products on her face, asked softly, "You


    have a business to attend to at thiste hour?"


    Benjamin smiled faintly. "No! It''s Uncle Bet... He''s looking for his lost child. He entered his DNA


    data into the gene base this week. If his child also did that, Uncle Bet will find a gic match."


    Madelyn was stunned for a moment.


    The DNA database...


    If she got her DNA data entered into the DNA database, would she have a chance to find her biological


    father?


    "What are you thinking?"


    Benjamin patted the seat by his side. After Madelyn went over to him, he hugged and kissed her, and


    his voice was hoarse and sexy. "Do you like the jewelry and clothes that were given to you today?"


    Of course, Madelyn liked them. There was no woman who didn''t like jewelry.


    Although Madelyn didn''t know much about jewelry, she could tell that they were worth at least six


    hundred thousand dors. She leaned over his shoulder and said honestly, "They''re too expensive...


    Benjamin, I can''t take it!"


    "Why?"


    Benjamin stroked her body gently and closed his eyes, pondering on something.


    He wanted to give her the 4,300-square-foot office in the future. If she liked the apartment, he would


    put it in her name. He really liked her and was willing to give her some material things.


    His sexual appetite was stirred up again when he was thinking of this.


    He whispered in her ear, "Madelyn, make love to me again."


    *


    Since Benjamin had mentioned the DNA stuff, Madelyn had been thinking about it from time to time.


    She was hesitant.


    She wanted to take a DNA test, but she was afraid of hurting Samuel and Cam.


    There was a cafe downstairs from the music room. Madelyn liked its smell and would get in there every


    time she came to check on how things were going.


    Madelyn rested her chin o a sunny afternoon.


    A courteous voice rang out, "Ms. Green."


    Madelyn looked up and was surprised to see that it was William.


    Madelyn got up quickly, "Hello, Mr. Bet."


    William was dressed in a light-colored casual suit. He was very easy-going and smiled faintly. "You and


    Ben are dating. You are not an outsider and just don''t need to address me with formal honorifics."


    Madelyn pulled out a chair for him and said yfully, "But you called me Ms. Green."


    "That''s my bad! How about I call you Maddie?"


    William''s voice became tense as he called out that name. All sorts of feelings welled up in his mind.


    Madelyn took the menu to him and smiled faintly. "My dad sometimes calls me Madeline!"


    Madeline...


    William was in a trance for a moment.


    He looked at Madelyn in front of him and found that she closely resembled Madeline. And Madelyn was


    the right age. He inevitably felt that there was hope, inquiring. "Have your parents met with Ben''s


    parents?"


    Madelyn was quite surprised.


    William was the eldest, but this conversation topic was quite abrupt.


    She thought about it and said conservatively, "I''m in a rtionship with him. But our parents haven''t


    met each other yet."


    William didn''t get the answer he wanted.


    Just then, his coffee was served to the table. He took a sip and smiled. "What kind of work do your


    parents do?"


    Madelyn stared at her coffee.


    After a long time, she said softly, "My dad is an auditor! Mom died when I was very young. But now I


    have a stepmother who treats me very well."


    Madelyn finished and smiled faintly at William.


    But her eyes were moist and red. Obviously, she missed her mother so much.


    At that moment, William''s heart ached badly.


    He murmured, "I can''t believe she died..."


    Madelyn''s mother died at a young age and couldn''t be Madeline! Madeline was in extraordinary health,


    and the fortune-teller said she would live a long, prosperous life!


    It took a long time for William to realize the enormity of his faux pas.


    He wanted to ask Madelyn''s mother''s name out of courtesy...


    But when he was going to say something, his phone rang.


    William looked at his phone and apologetically smiled at Madelyn. "Sorry, it''s my daughter. She arrived


    at Gredax, and I''m going to the airport to pick her up now!"


    Madelyn nodded gently.


    Somehow, William was a bit reluctant to leave. He stroked Madelyn''s hair, even though he knew it was


    rude. Then he said gently, "Next time we meet, Uncle Bet will treat you to a nice meal."


    Madelyn smiled faintly.


    When she smiled, she showed two small canine teeth and looked so cute.


    William was in a trance again.


    Madelyn looked like William''s wife. Madelyn''s mother died. Otherwise, William could have asked


    Madelyn more questions...


    *


    Madelyn went back in the evening.


    Madelyn told Benjamin that she met William at the cafe.


    Benjamin smiled faintly. "Isn''t Uncle Bet someone you admire? Did you take the opportunity to


    have a cup of coffee with him?"


    Obviously, Benjamin was jealous...


    Madelyn replied, "No, it''s you who is my Prince Charming."


    Benjamin was pleased.


    Then Madelyn said with some regret, "After a short conversation, he took a phone call from his


    daughter, saying he had to pick up her from the airport."


    Eleanor...


    Benjamin froze. He didn''t respond to Madelyn''s words but watched the TV.


    He had no idea what was ying on TV.


    Madelyn and Benjamin got along well with each othertely. Benjamin was mature and excellent, and


    she was willing to ask him many things. At this point, she really wanted to talk to him about the DNA


    stuff and wanted to know his point of view.


    Madelyn talked for a long time, but Benjamin did not listen to a word she said...


    "Benjamin!"


    "Benjamin ..."


    ...


    Benjamin came back to his senses and looked at Madelyn in front of him...


    Madelyn was beautiful, gentle, and meek, and had a great personality, and she took good care of him


    outside of work. Benjamin knew that if he wanted to, he could get to be with her and earn his way into


    her heart.


    He knew Madelyn loved him...


    The look in her eyes always gave away what she was really thinking!


    But he didn''t want to be tied down. He didn''t like being controlled by a woman anymore... He loved their


    rtionship at the moment.


    And he felt good about that!

    Chapter 115 His First Love HadReturned!


    Chapter 115 His First Love Had Returned!


    Benjamin gently stroked Madelyn''s long hair and said in a hoarse voice, "Sorry, I have some business


    to attend to." After speaking, he got up and walked towards the study.


    His sudden movement made Madelyn think deeply.


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    She wasn''t trying to be his wife, but she just clearly sensed Benjamin''s abnormal behavior.


    The person he had in his heart must havee back.


    She had just mentioned William''s daughter...Eleanor!


    Suddenly, Madelyn felt cold all over.


    Eleanor...was the one in Benjamin''s heart!


    But, she had met with William so many times, Benjamin even had sex with her on the phone with


    William, and he even joked about it a few times...But he never told her that his past was with Eleanor!


    No one told her!


    Everyone knew this except her!


    On this early autumn night, it was chilly...


    Madelyn sat alone on the sofa in the living room, only separated by a wall from Benjamin, but at this


    moment, she felt as if they were worlds apart!


    She had fallen for him, however little it may be!


    The roses on her pillow in the morning,


    The morningdew they yed through the night...


    The night the spent together...


    Madelyn smiled faintly, realizing that none of these mattered! The name "Eleanor" were enough to


    surpass everything between her and Benjamin...


    Madelyn didn''t dare to try and talk to him about it.


    Because they weren''t anything to each other.


    She may be foolish, but she understood Benjamin''s attitude about it. That bombshell still had an


    unparalleled effect on him, and Madelyn wasn''t someone who would willingly embarrass herself!


    He wanted to be alone, so she gave him space.


    However, she still made him a midnight snack and put it in a thermal box on the table, which he would


    be able to see when he came out of the study.


    Madelyn sat quietly in the living room, reviewing the financial report for the music room, and then took a


    bath to take care of her skin...Four-year failed rtionship with Daniel had taught her that feeling sorry


    for a man never ended well!


    Late at night, Benjamin sat in his study.


    The ashtray on the wooden desk was full of cigarette butts, and the room was filled with smoke. After


    finishing hisst cigarette, he crumpled the pack and threw it away.


    His eyes were starting to feel sore, reminding him that it wasn''t early anymore...


    Benjamin got up and walked straight out.


    The living room was dimly lit, with only a small nightlight left on by Madelyn. He easily saw the midnight


    snack on the table illuminated by the light.


    When he opened it, it was a bowl of snow pear stewed with rock sugar!


    Good for the lungs!


    Benjamin sat down and ate a few bites before walking into the master bedroom. Madelyn had already


    fallen asleep.


    Shey on her side, wearing a conservative white cotton nightgown. Benjamin didn''t know where he


    heard that the style of a woman''s nightgown represented whether or not she wanted to do it that night.


    Clearly, Madelyn didn''t want to tonight.


    Benjamin guessed that she had found out about something.


    So after taking a shower, he hugged her from behind.


    Madelyn didn''t want to wake up, but he was determined to wake her up...


    "Benjamin!"


    Madelyn sighed softly and turned to face him, saying in a low voice, "I''m a little tired, I don''t want to do


    it."


    Benjamin didn''t have that intention either.


    He just wanted to talk to Madelyn and be honest with her, "I dated Eleanor for a few years! She is Mr.


    Bet''s daughter."


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    She pressed her ear against his chest and whispered where he couldn''t see her, "Do you want to get


    back together with her?"


    "No!"


    Benjamin''s voice was a little cold. "She is engaged!"


    Madelyn didn''t ask any further.


    She thought that this kind of exnation that wasn''t really an exnation was more for himself than for


    her. He convinced himself that he and Eleanor were in the past, and Eleanor was engaged!


    From beginning to end, Madelyn had nothing to do with all of this!


    Madelyn knew it in her heart.


    She hugged his neck tightly and deliberately said, "That''s great! I don''t want to be the mistress either"


    Benjamin got angry.


    Sometimes, Madelyn could be quite annoying!


    Where he hurt, she pricked him...


    He didn''t do anything to him, just rubbed her chestnut brown hair instead of doing anything else and


    whispered, "Dress nicely for Eloise''s birthday tomorrow..."


    Madelyn smiled faintly.


    She guessed that Eleanor came back this time specifically for Eloise''s birthday. More bluntly, she came


    back for Benjamin, and while he may be able to avoid her. But on asions like birthday parties, they


    couldn''t avoid meeting!


    Madelyn almost felt sorry for herself...


    The next day was Eloise''s birthday.


    This might be Eloise''sst birthday with the rk family, who loved their daughter very much and


    chose to have the party at the rk mansion.


    Alexander and Brianna spared no expense and everything was the best!


    The rk mansion was magnificent.


    There was a band, delicious food, and well-dressed celebrity guests. Eloise was treated like royalty!


    Madelyn chose a white silk dress with a one-shoulder design, arge cut-out at the back, tied with


    several thin straps and adorned with small pearls.


    It was beautiful and sexy.


    Benjamin initially forbade her from wearing it because it revealed too much skin on her back, but


    Madelyn''s long hair covered most of it, leaving only a hint of her fair skin which was even more alluring!


    Madelyn walked around with Benjamin and met various rtives.


    He never shied away from their rtionship and was always honest about it.


    Brianna had a happy face as Benjamin finally had someone!


    When asked about marriage, Brianna smiled coyly, "Madelyn is still young. Give her and Benjamin for


    another two years..."


    She spoke generously, but behind her back, she looked sadly at her son.


    They slept together every day, so howe there was no unexpected event like pregnancy?


    Madelyn followed Benjamin for a while, but her feet were sore and she found an excuse to sit in the


    small garden and rest.


    Suddenly, a shadow appeared before her.


    She looked up and saw Daniel!


    He looked better than before, and Madelyn guessed that the crisis at the Campbell Group should have


    been resolved. Today was Eloise''s birthday, and she really wanted to congratte him, then they never


    met again.


    Daniel sensed Madelyn''s distance.


    He smiled, "Are you happy to attend such a party with Benjamin? Do you feel like you can marry into


    the rk family, Madelyn... Did you see him introduce you to Alexander?"


    Madelyn looked straight at him and asked, "What do you want to say?"


    Daniel leaned in, his eyes lit up with a small me, and his mouth curled with a hint of sarcasm, "Do


    you know that Benjamin doesn''t want to be married? Do you know why?"


    He hadn''t finished speaking yet when Madelyn''s gaze fell on somewhere.


    She whispered softly, "I know!"


    Daniel was stunned, and then he followed her gaze...


    The entrance to the garden of the rk mansion.


    A slender figure dressed in a fiery red long dress, swaying gracefully, with long ck hair flowing down


    to her waist, looked hot and passionate.


    Benjamin, wearing a ck tuxedo, gazed at her...


    They were infatuated with each other, deeply entwined.


    Madelyn smiled lightly.


    Benjamin called her his Morning Dew!


    No, she wasn''t!


    Eleanor was his red rose, and Madelyn was just a in dish he had tasted before, nothing special...

 Chapter 116 Madelyn, Try with Me!

    Chapter 116 Madelyn, Try with Me!


    Chapter 116 Madelyn, Try with Me!


    The surroundings were quiet and peaceful.


    Madelyn watched as the former lovers reunited after a long separation.


    Benjamin''s eyes wereplex, mixed with pain, shock, surprise...


    Madelyn didn''t know if he still loved Eleanor, or how much he loved her, but she could tell that


    Benjamin definitely hated her.


    Hate is the opposite of love!


    He had never forgotten about Eleanor...


    Daniel sneered from the side, "Madelyn, are you feeling ufortable all over now?"


    Madelyn smiled faintly, "What pleasure do you get from mocking me, Daniel? Shouldn''t you be happy


    now? You should be radiating the glory of the Holy Father!"


    Daniel clenched his fists slowly.


    What did he get?


    What was he happy about?


    He lost the woman who loved him for four years, watching her live with another man!


    All of this was his own doing! Benjamin was right. It was him who sent Madelyn to Benjamin!


    It was him... who lost her!


    Daniel''s throat moved slightly.


    He couldn''t help but speak, "Madelyn, perhaps I can give up everything! Can we start over?"


    Madelyn suddenly looked up!


    Her eyes were full of disbelief.


    How could Daniel think they could start over? He had trampled on her mercilessly, said sorry lightly,


    and then picked up where they left off before?


    It was ridiculous!


    Madelyn''s eyes were slightly red, and her lips trembled.


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    She stared at Daniel, hating him like never before!


    Just then, Eloise''s soft voice sounded in their ears, "Daniel, Madelyn, you guys are here..."


    This voice also caught the attention of the former lovers.


    Benjamin slowly turned around.


    He saw Daniel and Madelyn standing close to each other, staring at each other.


    Madelyn''s eyes were tinged with a faint red, as if she was about to cry, and Daniel''s eyes had an


    unforgettable longing...


    Benjamin narrowed his eyes slightly.


    He felt ufortable!


    Eleanor tossed her ck hair like seaweed and asked in a slightly yful tone, "Girlfriend?"


    Benjamin did not deny it.


    Eleanor approached him and smiled gently at his ear, "Ben, long time no see! I''ve been worried that


    what I have done would make you distant from women. Seeing your girlfriend now makes me happy."


    Benjamin smiled lightly and reservedly, "Long time no see! Also... you''re overthinking things!"


    Eleanor tilted her pretty little head.


    In the sunlight, her exquisite features and bright red lips were everywhere, and Benjamin felt that


    Eleanor hadn''t changed at all these years...


    Madelyn had apletely different personality from Eleanor.


    Madelyn loved staying home and cooking, she had a stable temperament and was easily appeased. Of


    course, Madelyn also liked to dress up beautifully.


    Madelyn...


    Benjamin turned around, but found that Madelyn was no longer there!


    He thought she must have seen him and Eleanor...


    Benjamin paused for a moment.


    Eleanor squinted slightly.


    She knew that Benjamin had someone by his side in Ennd, so she came back to see what kind of


    person could be by Benjamin''s side! It seemed like nothing special just now, but now Ben''s reaction...


    "Ben, won''t you show me around the house?"


    Eleanor said coquettishly, just like an old friend.


    Benjamin silently looked at where Madelyn had been standing for a while before he withdrew his gaze


    and said calmly, "There are a few elders who are very keen to meet you!"


    Eleanor wanted to take his arm.


    Benjamin avoided it without a trace, "Eleanor, this is not appropriate!"


    Eleanor''s face stiffened.


    She whispered softly, "Ben, you never refused me before."


    Benjamin strode towards the rks'' mansion and his voice came from in front of him, "Eleanor, that


    was in the past."


    They left.


    Daniel watched coldly from a small building in the corner.


    He saw Benjamin lost in thought, staring at where Madelyn had stood!


    When did Benjamin care about Madelyn like this? He should have noticed that Benjamin''s eyes were


    full of pure male desire every time he looked at Madelyn. What else could it be besides love? It wasn''t


    just possession, was it?


    Daniel closed his eyes lightly.


    Benjamin''s feelings for Madelyn had exceeded those for Eleanor.


    But he didn''t know it himself.


    Daniel didn''t want to tell him! Not at all!


    ...


    A birthday party took a turn because of Eleanor''s arrival.


    Everyone present knew about the past about Benjamin and her, and now that she had returned, their


    eyes towards Madelyn couldn''t help but carry deeper meanings.


    Even Brianna was worried.


    She quietly said to Madelyn, "Maddie, don''t overthink it. Ben and Eleanor were just childhood


    ymates, besides, Eleanor is already engaged to a foreigner and she''s only back in the country to


    handle some minor contract disputes. It won''t affect your rtionship with Ben." Madelyn smiled


    slightly.


    She couldn''t exin to Brianna that she and Benjamin were just "friends" in a physical sense!


    But she still liked him and deliberately avoided him!


    For the whole afternoon and evening, Benjamin hardly saw Madelyn! Well, the rks'' mansion was


    quite big and if you had the heart, you could always avoid someone!


    The night was cool as water.


    Madelyn leaned against the pavilion, with a cocktail on the stone table.


    The sound of Western music filled the hall, beautiful and romantic.


    Madelyn thought that the guests should be dancing and having fun now. She didn''t me herself, as


    this ce had nothing to do with her. She wouldn''t even think about fighting for anything because


    Benjamin''s attitude had already made it clear that he didn''t care about her feelings!


    She would find an excuse to leaveter!


    Benjamin probably wouldn''t have time to take her home tonight...


    "Madelyn!"


    A soft voice called out to her.


    Madelyn looked up and saw David.


    David usually dressed casually, in typical second-generation clothing, but tonight he was particrly


    formal and handsome.


    He walked up to Madelyn.


    He was tall, and Madelyn was sitting down, so she had to look up at him.


    David''s voice was deeper than usual, "Aren''t you going to dance? You look so pretty, it''s a shame not


    to dance!"


    Madelyn smiled. "No! It''s good to have a breeze here!"


    "Because of Benjamin and Eleanor?" David asked directly.


    He rarely spoke so sharply, and Madelyn felt a little embarrassed!


    David leaned down.


    His nose almost touched hers as he whispered, "Madelyn, do you like him? Do you like him so much


    that you''re afraid to show up in front of him, afraid of being hurt by the sight of your ex-lover dancing


    with someone else?"


    "Coward!"


    Madelyn''s slender neck trembled slightly.


    She looked at David in front of her as if she were meeting him for the first time.


    David gently touched her face and said in a seductive voice, "Do you want to know why I''m doing this?


    Because I want you to be happy. Isn''t that what life is all about, being happy?"


    "As long as you have enough suitors, Benjamin won''t be able to hurt you!"


    "Madelyn, try with me! I promise you''ll see a whole new Benjamin!"

 Chapter 117 He Knew! He Just Didnt Want to Give It!

    Chapter 117 He Knew! He Just Didn''t Want to Give It!


    Chapter 117 He Knew! He Just Didn''t Want to Give It!


    Madelyn''s worldview was shattered by David!


    She didn''t like ying games with exciting love, she just wanted to be with someone she loved. Even if


    it wasn''t Benjamin, she believed that one day she would meet that person.


    Madelyn ran away.


    She was scared away by David.


    In the pavilion, David put on a seriousness look and looked at Madelyn''s back without expression.


    Her half-drunk cocktail was still there, looking sweet in pale pink. David gently picked it up, his fingers


    brushing over the lipstick mark left by Madelyn, and then drank it slowly...


    There were many girls like Eleanor in their circle.


    They had the same capricious character, just different in beauty!


    But Madelyn was different. She had many advantages that other girls in their circle did not have, and


    because of her background, she was not petty...she was simply the perfect wife candidate in their


    circle!


    Daniel didn''t cherish her.


    Benjamin was busy picking up his self-esteem from his youth, and perhaps he might not have time for


    Madelyn!


    There was a flicker of fire in David''s eyes.


    Ben...if you don''t know how to cherish a woman, I''ll cherish her for you!


    ...


    When Madelyn walked into the banquet hall, she was prepared.


    David said Benjamin was dancing with Eleanor, and the scene must have been very beautiful. But


    seeing it in reality was another matter.


    They were indeed a good match! And they had a tacit understanding.


    Benjamin held Eleanor''s slim waist while she spun in his arms...


    The elders around them looked on with regret, remembering how well-suited they were in the past, but


    unfortunately they couldn''t make it to the end.


    Madelyn watched quietly.


    She thought, fortunately she didn''t fall too deeply.


    Fortunately, she wasn''t really engaged to him, otherwise, how would she feel about such a scene?


    One song ends.


    Benjamin and Eleanor both breathe lightly, and apuse rings out around them.


    Eleanor, who grew up abroad with a passionate and unrestrained personality, kissed Benjamin on the


    face in public. "Ben, we still cooperate so well!"


    Benjamin didn''t expect her to kiss him personally and was momentarily stunned.


    He suddenly felt a different gaze, so he slowly turned his body.


    It was Madelyn...


    She stood in the crowd, watching them, not knowing how long she had been standing there.


    As cohabiting partners, he should haveforted her and exined something to her at this time... or


    maybe even consoled her! But after considering it for a moment, Benjamin had to consider William''s


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    face. If he coddled Madelyn in front of so many elders, it would be equivalent to announcing their


    engagement.


    Benjamin didn''t want to be tied down!


    He just stared at her, with a meaning that they both understood in his eyes.


    Madelyn understood!


    Why wouldn''t she understand?


    He knew she liked him, and he knew what she wanted. All she wanted was a long-term stable


    rtionship between the two of them.


    But he was unwilling to give it to her!"


    The music started again. The elders urged Benjamin and Eleanor to dance again. Benjamin wanted to


    refuse but Eleanorughed softly, "Are you afraid your girlfriend will be jealous? Or are you still unable


    to forget me and dare not even dance with me?"


    "You''re overthinking it!" Benjamin''s voice was cold.


    He held Eleanor''s waist again. Eleanor''s dancing was graceful, and her eyes were full of ambition and


    possessiveness when looking at Benjamin, which was quite charming and stimting for men.


    But in Benjamin''s mind, he was thinking...


    Madelyn''s waist was even slimmer in his hands, especially when he held her from behind, making him


    excited beyond words.


    Thinking of those things, Benjamin lost interest in dancing. When the song ended, he wanted to take


    Madelyn home and make love to her...


    But Madelyn had left early!


    She politely said goodbye to Brianna and asked her to arrange a car to send her home. Brianna


    wanted to cry!


    As a woman, she also knew how bad her son''s actions were so stupid. They broke up years ago, why


    was he still dancing with that girl? What was there to talk about with other''s wife?


    Brianna couldn''t leave and couldn''t let others see the joke.


    She secretly asked Eloise to send Madelyn home.


    Eloise was angry too.


    It was her birthday, but when Eleanor came back, she stole all the limelight. She felt so angry!


    On the way, sheined about Eleanor non-stop. identally, she revealed what Eleanor had


    done to her brother. Her delicate face was indignant, "With this matter, she can never enter the rk


    family gates! Madelyn, don''t worry...my mom hates her the most!"


    Madelyn looked at Eloise.


    She was a simple girl, which was why Benjamin doted on her and didn''t want to tell her about Daniel''s


    darkness...Even Madelyn disliked her, but there was still a hint of fondness.


    Madelyn sighed softly.


    Actually, she couldn''t enter the rk family gates either!


    But she kept it to herself and took out an exquisite little box from her bag and put it in Eloise''s hand.


    Madelyn sincerely said, "Eloise, happy birthday."


    Eloise was usually carefree, but now she was a bit sentimental. She asked anxiously, "You''re not going


    to break up with my brother, are you?"


    Break up?


    Madelynughed. She whispered that she wouldn''t.


    Because between her and Benjamin, there was only ending their rtionship, no such thing as


    breaking up.


    Eloise didn''t understand this, and watched as Madelyn got into the car, holding her gift. She hugged it


    happily and went back to the main house. Just as she entered, she ran into Benjamin.


    "Where''s Madelyn?"


    Eloise raised the corner of her mouth and said, "You made her angry!"


    She lifted the box in her hand and said, "It''s a gift from Madelyn!"


    She couldn''t wait to see it, so she sat on the sofa and opened the box. Benjamin was originally going to


    leave, but he also wanted to see what Madelyn had given Eloise.


    She never said that she gave present separately...


    When the box was opened, it wasn''t precious jewelry inside, but a bright yellow amulet.


    Underneath was a scroll of handwritten scriptures copied by the head abbot of the Temple. It must have


    taken Madelyn a lot of effort to prepare such a valuable gift.


    Eloise''s lips quivered.


    She said very softly, "This is the best gift I have ever received!"


    Benjamin reached out and touched his sister''s head, and said lightly, "May you be safe every year."


    Then he took the car keys and walked towards the parking lot.


    ...


    Madelyn returned to her apartment at around ten o''clock.


    She took off her makeup and took a bath, wrapped herself in a ck silk bathrobe and stood in front of


    the floor-to-ceiling window. She rarely drank alcohol on her own initiative, but tonight she wanted to


    have a little bit.


    After drinking a little, Madelyn thought it was time to end with Benjamin.


    But whether this rtionship ends or not, she still had to listen to his opinion. After all, her father''s


    Madelyn thought a lot and made many ns.


    Later, feeling depressed, she opened the Morning Dew and yed Moonlight Lover.


    Benjamin opened the door and saw Madelyn sitting ying the piano.


    There were no tears or hysteria, only a hint of sadness in the piano music, but even this sorrow was


    extremely restrained.


    This is Madelyn,pletely different from Eleanor in terms of character...


    The piano suddenly stopped.


    Madelyn turned her head to look at Benjamin and smiled slightly, "You''re back?"

    Chapter 118 Benjamin, Tell Me What It Means Not to Be Serious!


    Chapter 118 Benjamin, Tell Me What It Means Not to Be Serious!


    Madelyn''s tone was particrly calm, "Are you having fun?"


    Benjamin took off his coat, threw it on the sofa, and walked over to her.


    He yed with the ss of red wine on the bar, his gaze deep.


    Madelyn rarely drank alcohol and lived an extremely disciplined life... If she was drinking, it meant that


    she was in a bad mood, and Benjamin guessed that it was because of him.


    He asked hoarsely, "Are you angry?"


    Madelyn didn''t answer. She didn''t want to lie, but she didn''t want to tell the truth either.


    Silence lingered for a long time...


    Benjamin smiled faintly, "Madelyn, when we first got together, we made it clear that we would get along


    well for a while and break up when we got bored. What are we doing now?"


    Madelyn looked up at him and asked softly, "Benjamin, are you bored now?"


    Benjamin could tell what she meant as soon as he heard IT. She wanted to end this.


    Because of Eleanor?


    Suddenly, he picked her up and ced her on the piano.


    The piano emitted a low, mournful sound...


    Madelyn struggled, feeling embarrassed by her current state. Benjamin was simply ying her.


    She was only wearing a ck silk bathrobe, and struggling like this exposed too much skin. Benjamin


    couldn''t help but tighten his throat at the sight of her translucent white skin...


    He rolled his Adam''s apple and whispered in her ear, "Do you care so much about Eleanor''s existence,


    Ms. Green? Are you too serious?"


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Her snowy white skin behind her eyebrows was highlighted by her bulging veins.


    But she held back.


    She gently raised her eyes and parted her lips, "Benjamin, tell me, what does it mean not to be


    serous?"


    Without waiting for him to speak, she took the initiative to embrace his neck and kissed him lightly on


    the lips. She even initiated a deep kiss with him.


    Benjamin''s body trembled!


    Madelyn had never done this before...


    He liked doing that kind of thing with her, but at this moment, he was so moved that he forgot about


    their argument and immersed himself in the kiss.


    The piano kept making sounds, moaning...


    "Mr. rk, is this what it means not to be serous?" Madelyn''s voice was particrly calm.


    Benjamin looked at her intently.


    Madelyn smiled at him.


    She said, "I''m sorry, Mr. rk, I crossed the line tonight. I will pay attention in the future."


    She paused for a moment, then said sarcastically, "I will follow in your footsteps every step of the way,


    and I won''t be too serous!"


    Benjamin squinted his eyes.


    He gently stroked her cheek...


    At this moment, he couldn''t exin his feelings.


    He hoped that she would be sensible and abide by the agreement between them, but when she was so


    obedient, he couldn''t help but think of her eye contact with Daniel during the day.


    It was passionate and intense!


    So... did she expend all her emotions on Daniel and only have a little left for him, Benjamin? He was


    pleased with her love for him, and wondered that she suffered about his things.


    Benjamin gave a cold smile.


    He leaned over her, as if determined to get his way.


    He used to be reluctant to use certain methods on her, but tonight he was going to use all of them!


    Madelyn let him kiss her for a while before saying in a t tone, "I have my period!"


    ...


    "What did you say?"


    ...


    "Benjamin, I have my period."


    ...


    Benjamin stopped and looked at her, his handsome face slightly red, his breaths unsteady. Perhaps


    unable to resist, he pulled Madelyn into his arms and checked with his hands...


    "Benjamin!"


    "Benjamin... you asshole!"


    Benjamin let go of her.


    He slowly slid down and sat on a stool, took out a cigarette, and lit it, inhaling deeply.


    Madelyn straightened her bathrobe.


    Her body was still trembling, and she couldn''t tell if it was from being teased or angry.


    Benjamin held the cigarette between his slender fingers and smoked it slowly.


    A thin veil of smoke soon enveloped them, making it difficult to see each other''s faces.


    Benjamin flicked the ashes off his cigarette and smiled, "Madelyn, I''m not bored yet! I really like your


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    body!"


    Madelyn smiled faintly.


    Eleanor had such a big influence. When she came back, Benjamin didn''t even bother to pretend


    anymore... He used to have the patience to coax her and call her "baby," but now he said, "I like your


    body!"


    What a jerk!


    Those refined disguises, he was nning to tear them all off, right?


    This was the real Benjamin!


    Madelyn was tired and didn''t want to tangle with him anymore. She asked seriously, "Can I go to sleep


    now?"


    Benjamin showed a mature man''s smile, holding a cigarette in one hand and gently stroking her


    delicate face with the other.


    He spoke hoarsely after ying enough, "Okay!"


    Madelyn knew that their rtionship had reached the freezing point in just half an hour.


    She didn''t care much.


    Men like Benjamin were not someone she could handle. Since it was impossible, she would protect her


    own heart.


    She yed with him until he got bored.


    As for Eleanor, she was not Madelyn''s concern. Eleanor was his ex-girlfriend, not Madelyn''s!


    Madelyn slept well at night!


    Benjamin didn''te back to the master bedroom to sleep. Madelyn guessed that he was sitting in the


    study reminiscing under the moonlight, which was fine and saved her from being bothered by him!


    But she knew in her heart that her rtionship with Benjamin...


    If he didn''t say it was over, they wouldn''t be able to end it!


    In the following days, Benjamin became busy.


    He rarely came back for meals and asionally didn''te back overnight.


    Madelyn never called to ask him. They were like strangers living in the same house. The sweet


    moments they had before were gone. Madelyn sometimes even wondered if they ever had such a


    sweet time!


    She didn''t interfere with his private life.


    She was pretty busy too!


    The preliminary work in the music room was almost done. She picked a good day with Penelope and


    was waiting to open.


    On this day, Madelyn returned from the music room.


    As soon as she sat in the car, she received Vivian''s call. Vivian hesitated and seemed to be struggling


    to speak.


    "Has Jackson bullied you again?" Madelyn was worried about her.


    Vivian immediately exploded.


    She said, "Jackson is a scumbag. I gave up on him a long time ago! It''s you, Madelyn. Why don''t you


    look at men more carefully..."


    Madelyn''s heart trembled slightly.


    She smiled gently, "What''s wrong?"


    Vivian couldn''t hold back and blurted everything out.


    "Benjamin has had several social engagements recently, and Eleanor has been there too! This is not


    the worst part. Benjamin went on a business trip to Gartown, and Eleanor even went with him! I can''t


    exin... Madelyn, check the newspaper and you''ll see!"


    Madelyn listened in a daze.


    Ah...


    So Benjamin went to Gartown a few days ago, and she didn''t even know. Did their rtionship


    deteriorate to such an extent that they were both too busy to even say a word...


    Madelyn smiled faintly.


    She confessed to Vivian, "It''s just that kind of rtionship between us. Why should I stop him from


    being with someone else or being a third party in someone else''s rtionship!"


    Vivian was shocked and speechless for a while.


    After a long time, she finally spoke, "Damn it! Madelyn, your mindset is amazing!"


    Madelyn could still joke, "Mr. rk taught me!"

 Chapter 119 Its Your Freedom to Meet Anyone!

    Chapter 119 It''s Your Freedom to Meet Anyone!


    Chapter 119 It''s Your Freedom to Meet Anyone!


    After hanging up the phone, Madelyn was in a daze for a while.


    How could she be so indifferent?


    It was impossible!


    After all, they had a passionate rtionship, and he had loved her!


    After all...she liked him too!


    Madelynposed herself and was about to start the car when Benjamin called.


    Madelyn answered, her voice as gentle as ever.


    "Benjamin..."


    On the other end of the phone, Benjamin paused when he heard her soft voice.


    It was then that he realized that he hadn''t seen her much in almost a week. When he came back at


    night, she was already asleep, and she hadn''t woken up when he left...


    Benjamin''s voice was slightly hoarse. "Where are you?"


    "I''m about to go home."


    Benjamin looked at his watch and spoke softly, "I''lle backter for dinner. Can you cook


    something?"


    Madelyn was silent for a few seconds before agreeing.


    After hanging up the phone, she gently touched her warm phone, feeling somewhatplicated.


    Actually, considering her current rtionship with Benjamin, it was normal for him to call her to tell her


    to lie down in bed. But asking her to cook...it seemed a bit unnecessary!


    Those sweet moments at home were like candy-coated poison that had once made Madelyn willingly


    consumed them.


    Now, he was pursuing the white moonlight of his youth.


    And she, Madelyn, was still incurable!


    There was no maid at home, so Madelyn went to the supermarket and bought some groceries.


    After paying, a few young people at the entrance of the convenience storeughed and stuffed several


    newspapers into her bag.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    "Gredax Evening News is in beta version, sister, take a look."


    "There''s gossip about the wealthy and powerful, and the content is explosive."


    ...


    They called her Miss and were affectionate.


    Madelyn didn''t care and casually put the newspapers in her shopping bag and ced them in the


    trunk.


    When she got home and opened the bag to prepare dinner, she discovered that the headlines of those


    newspapers were all about Benjamin.


    More precisely, it was about Benjamin''s affair with Eleanor.


    They had met at a Gartown banquet.


    At the hotel entrance, Eleanor was wearing a ck evening gown and her slender fingers were


    clutching Benjamin''s clothes. There was a faint redness in the corners of her eyes, but she stubbornly


    stared at the man in front of her!


    Benjamin turned slightly...


    The camera only showed half of his face, but Madelyn could see the hatred and pity in his eyes!


    ...


    Madelyn looked at it for a long time.


    By the time she came to her senses, she felt stiff all over and her muscles were sore.


    Madelyn blinked lightly.


    Fortunately, her feelings for Benjamin were still in their infancy, and fortunately, she could still control


    her heart.


    She casually threw the newspapers aside and calmly started cooking.


    Benjamin liked slightly sour food, but his stomach wasn''t very good.


    Madelyn made him a lemon fish, stewed some bone soup, and stir-fried two dishes.


    By the time she finished, it was almost 7 pm.


    He hadn''te back yet...


    Madelyn was hesitating whether to call and ask, then Benjamin called.


    His voice on the phone was pleasant to listen to.


    "Madelyn...I''m noting back for dinner tonight. I have an engagement."


    "I''ll be backter."


    Madelyn wasn''t angry, she just calmly said, "If you''re drinking, please hire a driver."


    Benjamin was silent for a while...


    Finally, he said, "Okay!"


    After hanging up the phone, Madelyn looked at the table full of food in a daze for a long time.


    Eventually, she slowly sat down and ate alone in silence.


    There was a lot of food left, so she packed it in a lunch box and nned to go downstairs to feed the


    little dog after finishing her work.


    ...


    When Benjamin came back, it wasn''t toote.


    It was around 10:30 at night.


    He saw Madelyn in the small garden below the apartment building, squatting under a tree and feeding


    a small white dog. Benjamin knew that she often went downstairs to feed the dog, but it was his first


    time seeing it.


    The early autumn night was a bit cold, and she had put on a baseball jacket over her shirt.


    It was his jacket, and the size was a bitrge, making her body look particrly petite and slender...


    Benjamin didn''te there.


    He stood by the car, lighting a cigarette and watching her quietly.


    He saw Madelyn gently petting the puppy, admiring the flowers and nts, but not showing any sign of


    sadness...


    After a while, Madelyn patted the white puppy again and went upstairs.


    Benjamin walked to the tree and looked around.


    Tonight, she made lemon fish.


    The food that was supposed to be for him ended up in the dog''s stomach!


    The little white dog didn''t know him and barked wildly at him...


    Madelyn returned to the apartment with one more WhatsApp message on her phone.


    Vivian sent her a 30-second video.


    Madelyn clicked it.


    In a VIP room in a high-end club, several acquaintances of Madelyn''s were ying games.


    Of course, Benjamin was there.


    And Eleanor!


    Benjamin leaned back on the sofa, smoking. The way he smoked was still what Madelyn liked. Eleanor


    sat next to him ying cards with someone else, probably saying something to Benjamin after losing.


    Benjaminughed lightly...


    The video ended, and the screen went ck.


    Madelyn knew Vivian meant well, so she smiled helplessly.


    She was about to delete the video when the door lock clicked softly...


    Benjamin appeared at the door.


    With a white shirt and sharply pressed gray trousers, he had a ck coat draped over his shoulders.


    It was the same outfit as in the video, meaning he had met Eleanor tonight.


    Madelyn watched him calmly.


    Benjamin changed his shoes, took off his coat, and naturally nced at the dining table.


    Madelyn said with a faint smile, "I''ve eaten already!"


    Benjamin nodded.


    He sat down at the dining table and flipped through the newspaper casually, saying, "Cook me some


    noodles!"


    As soon as he spoke, his gaze froze.


    All the newspapers in his hands were filled with gossip about him and Eleanor, some even taken at a


    hotel and looking quite intimate.


    He looked at Madelyn and frowned slightly.


    Madelyn said lightly, "I bought the groceries from a convenience store, and they just happened to put it


    in the bag."


    Benjamin put down the newspaper.


    He remembered how she looked downstairs earlier, not paying attention at all. She seemed to be doing


    well even though they hadn''t had any contact for a week.


    Although he was the one who was rumored to be with his ex-girlfriend, Benjamin wanted to find trouble


    with Madelyn.


    He sneered.


    "Don''t you want to ask?"


    His questioning tone made Madelyn ufortable.


    She looked down and smiled faintly, "Don''t worry, Mr. rk, I won''t overstep my bounds and interfere


    with your personal life. It''s your choice who you associate with and reunite with."


    Benjamin lowered his head and lit a cigarette before smiling at her in a strange way.


    Madelyn didn''t care anymore.


    She said word by word, "As for whether or not I care, that''s also my freedom!"


    Benjamin thought Madelyn had grown up.


    She was quick-witted and didn''t take any loss!


    He swallowed twice before telling her to go cook.


    Madelyn was still wearing his coat when she came out of the bedroom to cook. Benjamin watched her


    back while she cooked.


    Madelyn had a great figure, even when cooking her back remained straight.


    Her chestnut hair was tied up into a bun, revealing a tender piece of neck, andbined with her


    slender legs...It had been a long time since they had sex. Benjamin had that feeling.


    Just then, Madelyn''s phone on the dining table lit up.


    It was a text message from Vivian.


    The hood fan in the kitchen was too loud for Madelyn to hear...


    For some reason, Benjamin picked up her phone, opened WhatsApp, and saw the video that Vivian


    had sent earlier.


    The part where he met with Eleanor tonight...

 Chapter 120 Sister-in-Law, Happiness Depends on Your Own Efforts!

    Chapter 120 Sister-in-Law, Happiness Depends on Your Own Efforts!


    Chapter 120 Sister-in-Law, Happiness Depended on Your Own Efforts!


    Benjamin looked through the message.


    Even as the person involved, he couldn''t exin it. And he was indeed not innocent.


    Recently, Eleanor had been chasing after him.


    He did not respond.


    But after all, that woman was his ex-lover. Everyone knew what it meant for a woman to chase after a


    man all day long!


    For Benjamin, this was a little interesting.


    But he had no intention of getting back together with her, and certainly didn''t want to be the other man.


    Madelyn didn''t ask, and he had no intention of exining.


    Madelyn happened to bring out their food, with Benjamin still holding her phone.


    The atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous.


    Finally, Madelyn spoke first, "Vivian doesn''t mean anything else, don''t make things difficult for her."


    Benjamin put down the phone.


    He snorted, half-smiling and half-sneering, "You are quite good at worrying about others, why don''t you


    worry about yourself?"


    Madelyn asked in response, "Benjamin, do you want me to care or not?"


    Benjamin''s breathing became more intense.


    He couldn''t answer!


    Madelyn knew that she could not find the right answer, so she smiled wryly, "Either way, I can pretend


    for you!"


    The atmosphere was really oppressive, so she changed the topic, "You eat first, and I''ll go take a


    shower!"


    After taking only two steps, her arm was tightly grabbed.


    She turned around...


    Benjamin frowned.


    He wasn''t in the mood to eat at all, but he held onto Madelyn''s arm tightly, not knowing what he wanted


    to hold onto...


    He didn''t regret it either.


    Madelyn wanted something from him that he didn''t want to give or couldn''t give, because he didn''t want


    to get married!


    Was he heartbroken?


    Not necessarily!


    He just wasn''t used to this kind of Madelyn, this Madelyn was a bit unfamiliar to him.


    She seemed indifferent, as if nothing mattered.


    Benjamin hade back early tonight because he wanted to have sex with her, but looking at


    Madelyn''sckluster expression, he felt even more bored.


    Perhaps he would feel even worse after making love.


    ...


    Madelyn and Benjamin were in this ambiguous state.


    He didn''t let her go, but he also didn''t coax her. He didn''te back on time to do that with her every


    day.


    Madelyn didn''t care, but Cam couldn''t help but feel worried.


    After a few days.


    Cam called Madelyn to go shopping.


    Madelyn wondered, "Cam was always thrifty, and now she takes the initiative to buy clothes. Most


    likely, it was because she wanted to talk about Benjamin''s situation."


    Sure enough, Cam was carrying her bank card and apanying Madelyn for shopping. She kept


    buying things for Madelyn, saying that girls should always dress beautifully. Madelyn picked a few


    items with her help.


    While having coffee, Madelyn lightly touched Cam''s hand. "I have enough clothes, there''s no need to


    waste too much money."


    Cam nced at her.


    Then, Cam lowered her voice, "What''s going on between you and Benjamin? Howe he suddenly


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    has an ex-girlfriend who is so beautiful and keeps chasing after him?"


    Madelyn smiled faintly. She drank her coffee and said, "This is their business, Cam. I shouldn''t


    interfere."


    Cam felt sorry for her. She muttered, "When he pursued you, he drove you around, stayed with you


    in the hospital, helped you deal with Daniel..."


    Cam became upset as she spoke, "Why didn''t he cherish you after he seeded? Why did he turn


    the rtionship into what it is now? I don''t think she is better than you!""


    Madelyn handed Cam a tissue. Cam wiped away her tears and continued, "Don''t me me for


    being nosy! I had so much hope that Benjamin would cherish you."


    Madelyn patted her hand andforted her softly, "He made it clear from the beginning! There''s


    nothing toin about. Besides, Ms. Bet pursuit of him is her own business, and if he allows


    her to do so, it''s his problem. Cam, I have no reason to me them."


    Perhaps Benjamin didn''t think there was anything wrong!


    But in Madelyn''s eyes, this kind of indulgence was enough to be a decided permission!


    In the future, Madelyn would definitely leave Benjamin, so why botherpeting with an unrted


    woman!


    She told Cam that she wanted to focus on her career now. Cam was finally appeased.


    She turned from crying toughing. "It''s good that you can figure it out! It''s great to work on your


    career."


    Madelyn apanied her for a while, bought some things for her home, and then personally sent


    Cam back home.


    When she returned to her apartment, Madelyn guessed that Benjamin wouldn''te back for dinner,


    so she decided to make something simple.


    But just as she finished cooking, there was a knock at the door.


    Madelyn was quite surprised, "Who could it be at this time?"


    She looked through the door hole and found it was Eloise.


    Eloise was holding several bags in her hands and put them on the foyer when she entered, saying,


    "Madelyn, these are all things my mom asked me to bring over to give to you."


    Madelyn took a look, and they were all pretty expensive things.


    Two limited edition tinum bags, a diamond watch from Patek Philippe, and some essories.


    She wanted to refuse, but Eloise had already run over to the dining table and started eating without any


    hesitation.


    Madelyn was speechless.


    After finishing her food, Eloise finally found time to speak. "It''s so delicious! Madelyn, can you make


    another batchter?"


    After speaking, she suddenly remembered her mission. "Madelyn, let me take you out to y!"


    Madelyn cleaned up the dishes and smiled faintly, "Where are we going?"


    Eloise rarely does something bad, and her cheeks look unnatural, "Let''s go somewhere nice, juste


    with me."


    She was afraid that Madelyn would disagree, deliberately saying, "You left during my birthday, so


    consider this making it up to me."


    Madelyn quite liked her, so she agreed after thinking about it.


    Eloise pushed her into the closet and personally picked out a dress and jewelry for her.


    She was in a watercolor chiffon maxi dress with her very thin waist, especially beautiful and romantic.


    With Madelyn''s hair color, she looked like a certain female celebrity.


    Eloise stared at her in a daze and murmured, "How could my brother bear to leave you..."


    After speaking, she felt embarrassed and stuck out her tongue.


    Madelyn wasn''t angry. She grabbed her purse and paired it with nude high heels.


    "Where are we going?" Eloise didn''t dare say! Her mother cried every day at home but couldn''t


    interfere with the young couple''s life. So she specifically told Eloise to bring Madelyn to "catch them in


    the act"!


    Brianna instructed her like this, "Your brother is still single at his age and now the right woman left with


    anger because of him! Eloise, you can''t ignore your brother!"


    Eloise thought, "I''ll handle it! I''ll handle it right away!"


    Eloise found Madelyn after asking David about it...


    At this time, Madelyn asked her, and she was secretive. "It''s just a good ce!"


    Eloise drove over and let Madelyn sit in her car. Madelyn couldn''t resist her enthusiasm.


    Half an hourter, the red sports car stopped in front of the Orchid Club.


    The doorman recognized Eloise and respectfully called out "Ms. rk," but nced at Madelyn. She


    was pretty and he hadn''t seen her before! Of course, Eloise saw it.


    She was quite proud.


    My sister-inw!


    Madelyn followed her and went up to the third-floor VIP box level while asking, "Did you invite other


    friends?"


    Eloise stopped at the door of Room 308.


    She opened the door and invited Madelyn in. She was extremely nervous, "Um, there are quite a few


    friends."


    Madelyn wasn''t prepared and went in like this.


    When she adapted to the light in the room, she was stunned. She recognized almost all the people in


    the room. Benjamin, David''s circle of friends, and of course Eleanor...


    Madelyn turned her head and looked at Eloise.


    Eloise ran away quickly...


    "Sister-inw! Happiness depends on your own efforts!"

 Chapter 121 Madelyn, Call Me Husband!

    Chapter 121Madelyn, Call Me Husband!


    Chapter 121 Madelyn, Call Me Husband!


    The room fell silent.


    The men who were drinking and ying poker stopped and looked at Madelyn. Eleanor sat next to


    Benjamin, with the posture of a hostess. Madelyn''s situation was very awkward.


    If she came to y, no one invited her.


    If she came to catch someone cheating, she wasn''t anything to Benjamin...


    Last time, Jackson had an argument with her and used Madelyn as his first target. He spoke


    sarcastically, "What wind blew Madelyn here! Shall we y together?"


    Madelyn looked at Benjamin.


    He was dressed casually today, in a ck shirt and ck pants. He was sitting on the sofa, exhaling


    smoke rings.


    That was a wild look that Madelyn had never seen before.


    Benjamin nced at Madelyn and seemed annoyed, but didn''t try to defuse the situation. Suddenly,


    Eleanor leaned in and kissed Jackson, then smiled insinuatingly, "Jackson, don''t tease Ms. Green.


    Girls like her are too serious to y this."


    Madelyn tightly clenched her hands.


    Another person saying she was too serious! Eleanor and Benjamin were the same!


    Benjamin''s gaze was deep. He stared at Madelyn for a long time before he finally spoke harshly,


    "Madelyn, go back first!" That statement gave Madelyn no face at all. It was as if she was ignorant


    enough toe and catch someone cheating, yet not capable enough to take away another man!


    Jackson sneered.


    He finally got to vent his anger.


    At this moment, someone spoke up, "Okay, let''s not force Madelyn anymore and continue ying." The


    atmosphere livened up again...


    But just then, a voice softly rang out, "I can y it!"


    It was so soft that it was almost drowned out by the noise.


    But Benjamin heard it. It was Madelyn who spoke.


    His gaze narrowed and his tone became more severe than before, "Madelyn, go back first!"


    ...


    No one dared to speak. Even a fool could see that Benjamin was very unhappy.


    Perhaps Madelyn didn''t give him face!


    In the midst of silence, David chuckled lightly, "If Madelyn says she can y, then she can!"


    He pulled Madelyn to sit next to him and poured her a ss of red wine.


    "If you lose the game, we''ll drink. If you win, you can demand anything from anyone! No limits!"


    ...


    Benjamin lowered his voice, "David!"


    David smiled happily!


    He said, "Ben, are you afraid you can''t handle it? Eleanor has given so many kisses already, why can''t


    Madelyn kiss you? Your wife is really different, huh? Protective?"


    Benjamin nced at Madelyn.


    He stubbed out his cigarette and joined the game, saying "Come on!"


    The rules of the game were simple, it was just a game ofparing sizes!


    In the first round, Jackson won. Although he had a falling out with Madelyn, Benjamin was too


    ambiguous in his attitude towards her to take any risks.


    So he kissed Eleanor deeply!


    Their passion was like fire, making people blush and their hearts race.


    After kissing, Eleanor giggled and said to Benjamin, "If I win, I want to kiss you deeply!"


    But Benjamin didn''t respond.


    Madelyn had the smallest cards and drank half a ss of red wine.


    Her skin was already snow-white, but after half a ss of wine, she looked even more alluring than


    usual! David sat next to her and couldn''t bepletely indifferent. The way he looked at Madelyn


    showed his obvious affection for her, which even a blind person could sense!


    Coincidentally, David won the next round.


    The room fell silent.


    Damn it! This was what we came to see...


    Benjamin threw down his cards and stared intently at Madelyn. Before Madelyn could react, David


    leaned over her, supporting himself on both sides of her head.


    He straightened his good-looking nose and lightly rubbed against Madelyn''s.


    Madelyn looked up at him bewilderedly...


    With her long eyshes fluttering, her ears turning pink, she looked adorable and enticing.


    David''s gaze turned dark...


    In the corner, Daniel flicked some ash from his cigarette and thought bitterly that even if Benjamin


    broke his leg, he would still want to kiss Madelyn deeply.


    They had been together for four years, but he had never tasted her lips.


    Everyone thought David couldn''t resist kissing Madelyn, but only Madelyn knew that David wouldn''t. He


    cherished her with great care and caution in his eyes.


    David''s Adam''s apple bobbed, he really wanted to kiss her...


    But he didn''t. He leaned into Madelyn''s ear and whispered softly, "I want to hear you call me...


    husband!"


    The room was quiet.


    No one dared to speak!


    Because Benjamin''s expression was super ugly!


    David could have just kissed her lightly, but asking Madelyn to call him "husband" was too much? How


    could Benjamin sleep with Madelyn after that?


    Jackson coughed lightly, "David, that''s enough!"


    He winked at him. David looked up at Benjamin, smiling slyly, "Ben can handle it!" Benjamin didn''t say


    anything. He lowered his head and lit a cigarette, blowing out smoke rings...


    Eleanorughed.


    Ha! Madelyn probably wanted Ben to care. She was overthinking things! These small games in their


    circle were nothing. Calling someone "husband" was the lightest thing... Benjamin didn''t care about it at


    all!


    In the end, the only one who was embarrassed was Madelyn herself!


    At this point, David lowered his head again. His body was almost stacked on top of Madelyn''s, but they


    didn''t touch each other.


    His gaze and voice were both gentle, "Madelyn, call me husband."


    Madelyn had drunk enough to y it!


    She looked straight into David''s eyes, as if her whole world revolved around him... as if they were


    deeply in love. Madelyn''s red lips parted slightly, and her voice was raspy and sexy, "David... hus..."


    She didn''t have time to finish thest word.


    Her hand was tightly squeezed and pulled up, and then she fell into a warm embrace... Benjamin took


    Madelyn and headed towards the door.


    He threw down a sentence, "Tonight is on me."


    The room was silent...


    David straightened his clothes and shrugged at everyone. "I told you Ben couldn''t handle it!...


    Madelyn''s gone, Eleanor, why don''t you call me ''husband''?"


    Eleanor''s face turned pale.


    She really didn''t expect Ben to care about Madelyn that much! Didn''t he love her, Eleanor? How could


    he watch her kiss someone else, but couldn''t stand to hear Madelyn call someone else ''husband''?


    ...


    Benjamin took Madelyn outside.


    The night wind blew away her drunkenness.


    She wanted to break free from his grip, but Benjamin held on tight and led her to his gold Continental


    parked in the parking lot.


    Once in the car, Benjamin didn''t immediately drive.


    He gripped the steering wheel and stared straight ahead.


    "Eloise brought you here?" he asked.

    Madelyn was already feeling down, so she turned away without acknowledging him.


    Benjamin turned to look at her profile...


    He wasn''t sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Madelyn looked more beautiful every day.


    Every time he saw her, he felt something different.


    He stared at her for a moment, then stepped on the gas.


    Madelyn thought he was going to drive back to the apartment, but the car turned onto two streets and


    stopped at the entrance of the nearest five-star hotel...


    "Get out!"


    He unbuckled his seatbelt, got out of the car, and came around to her side.


    Madelyn knew what he wanted to do. He just wanted to do it.


    But she refused, she didn''t want to!

 Chapter 122 Should I Call You Darling?

    Chapter 122 Should I Call You Darling?


    Chapter 122 Should I Call You Darling?


    Madelyn refused to get out of the car!


    She sat in the car and looked up at Benjamin.


    She felt wronged with teary eyes.


    Benjamin bent over and actually carried Madelyn out.


    "Walk by yourself, or shall I hold you?"


    Madelyn wanted to be face-saving, so she asked Benjamin to let herself down. "Benjamin, I don''t want


    to be romantically linked with you."


    Benjamin put Madelyn down.


    He stared at her with deep eyes, from her face to her pretty shoulders to her beautiful dress.


    After a while, Benjamin said in a husky voice, "The dress is very beautiful!"


    Madelyn blushed with anger.


    She had been with Benjamin for a long time and naturally knew that he was lustful. If she dressed


    better, Benjamin would immediately be aroused and want to have sex with her regardless of time and


    ce.


    Madelyn didn''t feel honored at all.


    She knew she was just Benjamin''s sugar baby, while Eleanor was his beloved woman.


    At the hotel reception.


    Benjamin took out his identity card and hundreds of dors.


    The receptionist looked Benjamin up and down quietly when she checked in.


    Benjamin was famous as an eligible bachelor in Gredax, but it was said he had a girlfriend... Looking at


    the very beautiful girl next to him, the receptionist thought that the girl should be his girlfriend.


    The receptionist was gossipy. Looking at them curiously, she handed over a room card.


    "Room 3601, hope you have a great night."


    Benjamin took the room card from the receptionist.


    In such a ce, he could even do such things calmly with a poker face, and his movements were


    elegant.


    It was the first time Madelyn came to the hotel with Benjamin, so she was very ufortable from


    beginning to end.


    Inside the elevator.


    Benjamin pressed Madelyn against the wall, pinched her chin, and kissed her. Madelyn couldn''t avoid


    it, because Benjamin put his knee against her as soon as she escaped.


    Madelyn suddenly turned to jelly.


    Benjamin chuckled.


    After a kiss, both of them were puffing, and even the thin blue veins stood out at the end of Madelyn''s


    eyebrows.


    Benjamin stroked the blue veins gently.


    He suddenly remembered that Madelyn had feelings for David in his arms in the clubhouse just now.


    Benjamin felt a trace of difort. His forehead was against Madelyn''s. He asked, "If I didn''t take you


    away, would you really call David darling?"


    Madelyn opened her eyes and looked at Benjamin with a dreamy look.


    After a while, she finally digested the meaning of Benjamin''s words, knowing that he wouldn''t let her go


    easily today, so she simply wanted to disgust him.


    Madelyn hugged Benjamin.


    She got close to his neck and replied in a gentle voice, "Of course!"


    Benjamin''s body froze slightly.


    Madelyn let Benjamin go and then leaned against the elevator wall. She said, "If I don''t call him darling,


    should I call you?"


    Obviously, it was a provocation, yet Benjamin was still angry with it.


    Many women wanted to sleep with Benjamin, but he was not interested in them. However, Madelyn


    was different...


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Both of them had made love many times, but every time Madelyn stared at Benjamin with moist eyes,


    he could be aroused easily!


    Even Eleanor couldn''t give Benjamin this feeling!


    Eleanor was also very beautiful, but her appearance made her look aggressive. Besides, with the


    unpleasantness in the past, Benjamin had never had any lust for her body, let alone sexual excitement.


    But Madelyn was gentle, and her good-looking appearance made men want to hug her.


    The elevator was a public ce, so Benjamin was quite restrained!


    He just touched Madelyn''s face gently, staring at her as if he wanted to see her skin texture clearly!


    Actually, Benjamin did nothing, but the atmosphere was so intimate as if the elevator was on fire!


    ...


    With a sound, the elevator door opened.


    Benjamin grabbed Madelyn''s hand and opened the door of the suite.


    He hugged Madelyn to the floor-to-ceiling window. Only a nightmp was on, and he looked at her in a


    faint glow.


    After a while, Benjamin held Madelyn''s face and kissed her.


    When they were both aroused, Madelyn suddenly turned her face away and struggled.


    She felt wronged!


    She thought, "What does he mean? He has an intimate rtionship with his beloved woman, and he


    still has sex with me when he wants to vent his lust..."


    Benjamin kissed Madelyn''s chin.


    He asked in a husky voice, "What''s the matter? Wasn''t it good just now?"


    Madelyn leaned her head against the transparent ss and said in a quavering voice, "I was not


    looking for you tonight."


    "I know! But so what? Don''t you want to make love? Madelyn, you want. Your body tells me so."


    ...


    Benjamin was particrly domineering and overbearing in sexual matters, and Madelyn couldn''t resist


    it.


    During the sex, Benjamin couldn''t help but think of David''s admiration for Madelyn and Daniel''s


    obsession with her, so he was inevitably much ruder than usual.


    Madelyn was reluctant, while Benjamin was excited. He had never been so excited and impulsive.


    ...


    When the sex was over, Madelyn was not feeling well. She was so tired that she only wanted to sleep.


    But after keeping her eyes open for a long time, she still sat up from the bed.


    "Benjamin, you didn''t use a condom!"


    Benjamin put his hand over his eyes and hugged Madelyn into his arms. Then he said, "Once in a


    while! Besides, you are in a safe period."


    However, Madelyn was very determined.


    She asked Benjamin softly in the dark, "If I am pregnant, will you allow me to give birth to the child?"


    She continued in a wailing tone, "Benjamin, I won''t abort the child."


    Madelyn thought, "If I''m really pregnant, I will give birth whether he wants it or not!"


    The night was thick...


    Benjamin hadn''t had sex with Madelyn for a long time, so he was very indulgent tonight. Actually, he


    wanted to sleep very much, but Madelyn insisted on this matter and refused to sleep, so he had to get


    up.


    The bedroom light was on.


    Benjamin got up and dressed. He said, "I''ll go to the pharmacy to buy the pill."


    Madelyn sat up and bit her lower lip lightly. She said, "Buy... Buy a topical ointment. I''m very


    ufortable."


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn with deep eyes.


    Madelyn looked away and exined, "It hurts a little."


    Benjamin got out of bed, buttoned up his shirt, and zipped up his trousers.


    After going out for about 20 minutes, Benjamin brought a small box of pills and an ointment. When he


    handed them to Madelyn, both of them were a little embarrassed.


    Benjamin had never bought these things for a woman, while Madelyn had never taken such a kind of


    medicine and applied the ointment.


    Madelyn sat on the bed and read the instruction. After reading, she took the mineral water from the


    bedside and unscrewed the lid. Then she put a pill in her mouth and swallowed it with water.


    Benjamin just looked at Madelyn by the bed.


    Madelyn was quite calm, without the hysteria of the heroine in a TV drama taking the contraceptive pill.


    Benjamin couldn''t help but ask, "Did this medicine just kill my..."


    Madelyn nced at Benjamin.


    She was quite surprised and wondered why he felt torn.


    Madelyn directly ignored Benjamin.


    She got out of bed in a bathrobe and was going to go to the bathroom to apply the ointment.


    Benjamin stopped Madelyn and said, "Just apply it here. I''ll help you."


    Madelyn certainly refused.


    She didn''t think they were so intimate.


    But Benjamin carried Madelyn back to the bed and insisted on applying the ointment for her. Madelyn


    was speechless and helpless during the process. After Benjamin applied the ointment, she tucked her


    quilt around herself and said, "I want to sleep."


    Benjamin cleaned up the things and hugged Madelyn from behind.


    Madelyn was so tired that she didn''t break away.


    When it was almost dawn, Benjamin felt a hot sensation in his arms.


    Reaching out and touching Madelyn, he found her body was very hot. He thought Madelyn might have


    a fever.


    He had somemon sense and guessed that it was because of himself. He patted Madelyn on the


    cheek and said, "You have a fever, and I will take you to the hospital."


    Madelyn was a little in a trance because of the fever.


    She opened her eyes and stared at Benjamin, and she was as delicate as a poor little animal.


    Benjamin''s heart skipped a beat all of a sudden.

    Madelyny on the snow-white pillow.


    Probably because of her illness, she was groggy and said in a soft tone, "I don''t want to go to the


    hospital."


    She would feel embarrassed if she went to the hospital because of sex.


    Benjamin stroked Madelyn''s face, picked up his mobile phone from the bedside table, and gave a


    phone call.


    "Paisley, find a doctor."


    "Well... Room 3601 of Gctic Hotel."


    "It''s not me. Madelyn is sick."


    ...


    Paisley opened her mouth wide and hadn''te to her senses for a long time!


    She thought, "Why did they go to a hotel but not at home? Mr. rk is really good at cavorting!"


    Paisley was sophisticated. She immediately contacted a reliable family doctor and took him to the hotel


    in person.


    When the two arrived at the hotel, Benjamin opened the door.


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Before the doctor could speak, Benjamin frowned and asked, "Why is it a male doctor?"


    Paisley thought, "Why does he care if the doctor''s a man or a woman?"


    Benjamin didn''t let them in and said to Paisley, "Ask a seasoned female doctor toe over, whose


    lips...are sealed."


    Benjamin knew Madelyn was keen on face-saving.


    Paisley was very clever and immediately asked an authoritative gynecologist in Gredax toe. The


    doctor was really something. She only prescribed but did not give Madelyn an injection.


    Madelyn reduced the fever by noon.


    But she was still weak and kept sleeping.


    Paisley didn''t leave, helping to clean up the hotel suite. While cleaning up, she was secretly surprised.


    Benjamin was in the bedroom.


    He sat on the sofa and handled some affairs with his mobile phone. Then he came to see Madelyn and


    touched her hand.


    Madelyn''s fingers were delicate and soft, and it could be seen that she rarely did housework. However,


    after living in Benjamin''s apartment, Madelyn did all the housework at home without anyints


    because Benjamin gave the maid a long holiday.


    Benjamin suddenly remembered the days when they just lived together.


    He thought it was actually pretty nice!


    At that time, as soon as Benjamin looked at Madelyn, her face flushed.


    Benjamin knew Madelyn liked him all the time!


    But now, Madelyn rarely blushed in front of Benjamin. On the contrary, when David asked her to call


    him darlingst night, she flushed slightly, which was Benjamin''s familiar shy look.


    Benjamin couldn''t stand it just thinking about it!


    At four o''clock in the afternoon, he took Madelyn back to the apartment, but she was still ufortable


    and wanted to vomit.


    Paisley asked the doctor toe over again.


    The doctor said it was because of the contraceptive pill.


    Benjamin saw the others off and went back to the bedroom. Madelyn was lying down on the pillow with


    her pale face. Benjamin couldn''t help but think ofst night. He had been really satisfied and felt better


    than ever before.


    But Madelyn was sick, and Benjamin regretted it.


    He walked over and touched her face gently. "I won''t let you eat the pill in the future."


    Madelyn was embarrassed and put her face away.


    Benjamin lowered his head and kissed Madelyn gently for a long time. He didn''t let go of her until her


    face blushed.


    Madelyn raised her head with teary eyes.


    She murmured, "Benjamin... Actually, you should have been bored with me!"


    Madelyn knew there was indeed a tacit understanding between them.


    But it had been a long time, and Benjamin''s beloved woman also came back. Besides, Benjamin


    seemed to enjoy the intimate rtionship with Eleanor. Madelyn thought he should let her go, and it


    was not only good for both of them but also Eleanor.


    Benjamin didn''t speak but just stared at Madelyn.


    He thought, "No, I haven''t! I haven''t been bored with her! So far, I just want to sleep with her."


    The silent atmosphere was embarrassing.


    Madelyn didn''t want to beg Benjamin, so she just said in a choked voice, "I won''t go to the hotel with


    you in the future."


    Benjamin rolled his Adam''s apple.


    He remembered the crazy thing ofst night again...


    When the atmosphere was charged, Benjamin''s mobile phone rang. It was a call from his childhood


    friend.


    Benjamin put his friend on speakerphone and asked, "What''s the matter?"


    Benjamin''s friend named Grayson Wyattughedzily.


    "Ben, what abouting out to have fun tonight?"


    "Someone was a killjoyst night, and Eleanor organized another party tonight. I''ll let David apologize


    to youter! By the way, did you do anything to Madelyn? Women always throw a tantrum. It''s normal


    for her to be jealous of Eleanor. It means she cares about you after all! I know your temper! Just


    neglect her for a few days."


    ...


    Benjamin did not retort.


    He looked at Madelyn with a meaningful smile.


    Madelyn was so angry that her neck was a little red. She took the pillow and smashed it into Benjamin.


    "Bullshit! Benjamin, you can have fun with whoever you like, and it has nothing to do with me."


    ...


    Benjamin smiled slightly and said, "Grayson said it, not me."


    Grayson on the other end of the phone was silent.


    After a while, he changed his tone and said, "Madelyn, you are there too! I was talking nonsense just


    now!"


    Then he continued in a low voice, "Ben,e or not, give me a straight answer! It''s rare for Eleanor to


    Grayson was sure that Benjamin would definitelye and that Madelyn didn''t dare to stop Benjamin.


    In their circle, there was no precedent for a sugar baby who dared to interfere in sugar daddy''s affairs.


    All the sugar babies were very obedient and gentle. As for the asional temperamental ones, they


    were directly abandoned...


    Grayson was waiting for Benjamin''s answer.


    Unexpectedly, Benjamin said lightly, "I''m not going there! It''s boring."


    Grayson was quite surprised.


    "Ben, I''m calling you with a mission."


    Benjamin said bluntly, "Madelyn is not feeling well, so I have to take care of her at home."


    Grayson waspletely stunned.


    He thought, "We have always been the only ones taken care of by women. How could Ben take care of


    a woman? He is not a doctor! Is he..."


    Grayson asked with a deep voice, "Ben, are you serious?"


    Benjamin showed his respect to Madelyn in front of Grayson. He smiled lightly and hung up the phone.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn with a charming smile and asked, "Ms. Green, are you satisfied with this?"


    Madelyn directly ignored Benjamin.


    She thought, "His concessions and flirtation are just usual tricks used by men. If he really likes me, he


    will give me a stable and long-term rtionship, but not just physical contact."


    Benjamin''s concessions and thoughtfulness eased their rtionship a bit.


    During the weekend, in addition to taking care of Madelyn, Benjamin worked in the study and even


    went downstairs to feed the dog!


    Madelyn was not well, so Benjamin didn''t have sex with her but liked to kiss her...


    When he made her excited with a kiss, he chuckled.


    In those two days, Madelyn felt that she had returned to the past, but she knew she hadn''t. Benjamin''s


    thoughtfulness and flirtation were just because he was still interested in her.


    Madelyn thought Benjamin didn''t care if she liked him or was in pain at all!


    After two days of rest and recuperation, Madelyn was better and she suddenly wanted a cup of coffee.


    When Madelyn half made the coffee, the doorbell rang.


    Benjamin was in the study, and Madelyn went to open the door. She originally thought it was Eloise.


    After opening the door, Madelyn was stunned.


    It was Eleanor who stood at the door.


    Eleanor had a smile on her pretty face, unlike her malicious attitude that night.


    Madelyn didn''t dare to underestimate this woman.


    She didn''t prevent Eleanor from meeting Benjamin. She turned sideways and asked Eleanor toe


    in. Then she walked to the door of the study and said to Benjamin, "Ms. Bet is here. Would you like


    to meet her?"

 Chapter 124 Benjamin, I Did It on Purpose!

    Chapter 124 Benjamin, I Did It on Purpose!


    Chapter 124 Benjamin, I Did It on Purpose!


    Benjamin was a little surprised and asked, "Eleanor?"


    Madelyn nodded.


    Benjamin stared at Madelyn''s face, capturing every detail of her expression, as if looking for


    something.


    Madelyn behaved perfectly.


    In the end, Benjamin lowered his head to continue to read the documents and said lightly, "Let her


    When Madelyn turned around, Benjamin looked up at her figure...


    In the living room.


    Eleanor was visiting this high-end apartment.


    She stared at the Morning Dew piano, and her face almost deformed because of jealousy.


    She thought, "It''s Morning Dew. Legend has it that Louis II often used it to y music to his beloved


    wife. Benjamin gave it to Madelyn. Does it mean he has fallen in love with her? Impossible!"


    Eleanor would rather die than admit it!


    She continued to think, "I know Benjamin. He likes the minimalist style. How could he tolerate Madelyn


    making this ce a real family feel and filling with her smell everywhere? Everywhere!"


    Madelyn stared at Eleanor aftering out and didn''t speak until Eleanor found her. "He is waiting for


    you in the study."


    Eleanor gave a rather meaningful smile.


    She raised the document bag in her hand.


    "I have an economic case to ask Ben. Do you mind?"


    Madelyn had a faint smile.


    She thought, "Fortunately, I''m not Benjamin''s wife, otherwise I will be so angry that I''ll have a heart


    attack!"


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Madelyn was very generous.


    "I''m making coffee. Would you like a cup?"


    A glimmer of the smile flickered in Eleanor''s beautiful eyes. Eleanor said, "Thank you." Then she


    walked into the study.


    The sound of conversation came from the study, sounding like Eleanor and Benjamin talking about


    business.


    Madelyn was not interested in it, so she walked into the kitchen to make coffee.


    Because there was a guest, she made one more cup of coffee.


    Just as Madelyn was pouring the coffee, Eleanor came over. She stood beside Madelyn and said


    casually, "I saw the Morning Dew piano. That was the birthday gift I wanted when I was 22 years old."


    Madelyn certainly knew Eleanor''s meaning. Eleanor just wanted to tell her that she just got what


    Eleanor didn''t want.


    Madelyn smiled and asked, "The piano is in the living room. Do you want to y?"


    Eleanor changed her look.


    She didn''t expect that Madelyn would be very difficult to deal with.


    She lowered her eyes and chuckled. She said, "With the Morning Dew piano and the white dress at


    Eloise''s birthday party, Ms. Green, do you know what these mean?"


    Madelyn looked at Eleanor with an innocent look.


    Eleanor took out her mobile phone and showed Madelyn an old photo.


    It was the 24-year-old Benjamin, who took a photo with the 22-year-old Eleanor. Eleanor was snuggling


    next to Benjamin in a white dress, and they were just like a prince and princess, a perfect match!


    Behind them was the Morning Dew piano, yet it was on public disy at that time!


    Madelyn stared at the 24-year-old Benjamin in the picture.


    In the picture, Benjamin was younger and gentler than he was now, and he looked like an elegant man


    that young girls would like.


    Seeing Madelyn''s silence, Eleanor gave a soft smile.


    "Ms. Green, you are just a substitute for me. No matter how well you imitate me, you''re just a fake.


    Now that I''m back, there is no need for you to stay with Ben anymore!"


    Madelyn picked up a cup of coffee and took a sip.


    She thought, "Oops, it''s so hot!"


    She raised her eyes to look at Eleanor and said calmly, "Whether it''s the Morning Dew piano or


    Benjamin, I''d be quite grateful to you if you could take it away."


    Madelyn thought, "Because I don''t want to continue the rtionship with Benjamin anymore. I want to


    start a new life."


    Eleanor was stunned for a moment.


    She didn''t believe it at all, and she felt that this was Madelyn''s provocation to her!


    Eleanor picked up a cup of coffee andughed happily.


    "Ms. Green, sometimes it takes some means to steal a man. Don''t me me! I really hate you!"


    ...


    Eleanor poured coffee on her arm as she said and then screamed.


    "Ms. Green, why are you sshing me with coffee? It''s so hot... Ben, Ben..."


    ...


    Eleanor looked at Madelyn spitefully, with a triumphant smile.


    Madelyn lowered her head and stared at the cup of coffee in her hand.


    She thought, "It''s a pity!"


    She looked at Eleanor and said with a smile, "Ms. Bet, in fact, I admire your father, but I really


    didn''t expect William to have such a despicable daughter! It''s your own business to pursue Benjamin,


    but I won''t stand it if you frame and disgust me! By the way, I forgot to tell you that your cup of coffee


    with ice may not achieve the great effect of scalding and will not make Ben feel distressed."


    Madelyn gently flipped her hair.


    "Let me help you!"


    After speaking, Madelyn slowly poured the cup of coffee above at least 185 Fahrenheit degrees on


    Eleanor''s delicate arm.


    Eleanor''s delicate skin suddenly turned red.


    Eleanor cried and screamed in pain...


    Benjamin stood at the door, staring at Madelyn with cold eyes.


    Madelyn raised her eyes slightly and met Benjamin''s gaze.


    Madelyn said with a faint smile, "Benjamin, I did it on purpose!"


    Benjamin brushed past her.


    He said in a very low voice that only Madelyn could hear, "Ms. Green, you want to leave me so much,


    don''t you? Do you think scald Eleanor can irritate me?"


    He thought, "Or does she just want to leave me and be with David?"


    Madelyn did not answer Benjamin.


    She only felt it was a pity that he saw it all.


    Eleanor didn''t know the conversation between the two. She rushed into Benjamin''s arms like a bird with


    broken wings.


    She said seductively, "Ben, Ms. Green doesn''t like me! It hurts. Please keeppany with me. You


    can go to my house to apany me. I have two bottles of wine. We can chat under the quilt while


    tasting wine..."


    ...


    Eleanor directly seduced Benjamin in front of Madelyn.


    Even Madelyn had to praise that Eleanor was really good at being hypocritical.


    Madelyn thought, "What a pity! That cup of coffee was not hot enough! Otherwise, I must show Eleanor


    the darkness of the human heart!"


    Benjamin kept staring at Madelyn.


    After a long time, seeing Madelyn didn''t want to exin, Benjamin thought she was deliberately trying


    to push him out.


    Benjamin looked down at Eleanor.


    "I''ll take you to the hospital to deal with it."


    Eleanor refused.


    "Ben, you don''t even care about me! I need red wine and I need yourfort!"


    Benjamin pushed Eleanor away lightly.


    He walked in front and said indifferently, "Or, let Madelyn care about you! She is very good at


    bandaging."


    Eleanor stomped her foot


    She thought, "I''m afraid of Madelyn... I really don''t understand why she could treat me like this. She is


    just a sugar baby raised by Ben. Shouldn''t she be groveling to me? I''m the daughter of a wealthy


    family! How dare she ssh me with coffee!"


    Benjamin waited outside for a long time.


    Eleanor came out, while Madelyn didn''t.


    Benjamin walked back and asked, "Are you not going?"


    Madelyn had already cleaned up the coffee grounds. She put the coffee beans into the coffee machine


    and said calmly, "Just go. You two can take the opportunity to catch up."


    Hearing this, Benjamin knew Madelyn was taking her anger out on him!


    They had gotten along well in the past two days, and Benjamin indeed had sexual satisfaction in the


    hotel that night. So he thought, "Madelyn is not feeling well and was disgusted by Eleanor, and it''s


    normal for her to have a temper."


    Benjamin hugged Madelyn from behind.


    "Are you angry? You sshed her with coffee, and I didn''t even get angry with you. I''ll be back with


    you, okay? Do you want red wine or coffee? Let''s chat under the quilt, okay?"

 Chapter 125 Madelyn, I Havent Slept With Her!

    Chapter 125 Madelyn, I Haven''t Slept With Her!


    Chapter 125 Madelyn, I Haven¡¯t Slept With Her!


    Madelyn bit her lip gently and thought, "He is so shameless!"


    At the same time, she had a deep sorrow.


    She thought, "Whether it''s me or Eleanor, actually Benjamin doesn''t take us seriously. He only likes my


    body. He has not been tired of my body, so he is willing to coax me asionally. As for Eleanor, he


    looks down upon her and even hates her, but he still gives her a little hope from time to time, teasing


    her like the cat and mouse game!"


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Thinking of this, Madelyn was calm and unruffled.


    She said coldly, "We''ll talk about itter!"


    Benjamin stared deeply at Madelyn''s figure and then walked out.


    Eleanor, who was waiting at the entrance, looked pale.


    She saw it all.


    She saw Benjamin coaxing Madelyn and saw him care about Madelyn quietly. She used to think that all


    this only belonged to herself, but only by seeing the scene with her own eyes did she know Benjamin


    didn''t like her anymore but someone else.


    Eleanor didn''t give up.


    She said softly, "Go to my house for a drink, okay?"


    Benjamin didn''t speak until he got in the car. "Eleanor, you''ve pursued me these days, and I don''t deny


    that it is surely an exciting thing for a man. But we both know it''s just for fun, and it''s nothing!"


    Eleanor''s face turned pale immediately.


    Benjamin lowered his head and lit up a cigarette.


    He slowly blew a smoke ring and looked at Eleanor.


    "Our rtionship is over, and I will never have anything to do with you! Even if we are broken up, we


    have a friendship because of Mr. Bet. Eleanor... Don''t make our rtionship too embarrassing."


    Eleanor''s lips trembled.


    "Is it because of Madelyn? Are you in love with her?"


    Benjamin didn''t answer because he thought there was no need to report his private life to Eleanor.


    After a long silence, Eleanor smiled softly.


    "Ben, I bless you."


    ...


    Madelyn originally thought that Benjamin might not return all night. After all, the old lovers rarely


    reunited. Besides, Eleanor took the initiative toe just to have intimacy with Benjamin tonight.


    Unexpectedly, Benjamin came back at 1 a.m.


    At this time, Madelyn was already asleep.


    Benjamin took off his coat, hugged Madelyn from behind, and bit her neck gently.


    He even put his hand in her nightgown to check her body.


    Madelyn made a low croon.


    Benjamin asked in a husky voice, "Are you feeling better?"


    Madelyn grabbed his hand and didn''t let him touch her body.


    "It still hurts a little."


    Benjamin hadn''t made love for a long time. Although he had sexual satisfaction that night, he still


    wanted to have sex with a woman every night at his vigorous age.


    Benjamin couldn''t help but want to kiss Madelyn.


    However, Madelyn was unwilling. She turned her head away to prevent Benjamin from kissing.


    She said in a quavering voice, "Benjamin... I''m sleepy... Don''t...do this. Benjamin, I don''t want to make


    love!"


    ...


    Madelyn finally told her innermost thoughts and feelings. Benjamin rested his head with one arm and


    stared down at her.


    He knew what she cared about!


    He stared at Madelyn with deep eyes and couldn''t help but lower his head to rub her nose gently with


    the bridge of his nose.


    "Madelyn, I haven''t slept with her."


    "Not before, nor now."


    ...


    Madelyn''s thought was easily guessed. She was embarrassed and annoyed, so she simply turned her


    face away and didn''t look at Benjamin. She said, "How do I know!"


    Benjamin was in a good mood tonight.


    He bit the tip of Madelyn''s nose lightly.


    He thought it was so lovely.


    He said in an erotic tone, "I have a way to prove it. Would you want to try it?"


    As Benjamin said, he put Madelyn''s hand on his penis.


    Madelyn screamed in a low voice and struggled gently.


    The more Madelyn resisted, the more interesting and excited Benjamin felt.


    Benjamin teased Madelyn and said, "Do you know now? I have never made love before I met you. I''ve


    left all my sperm for you all the time. When you''re willing to have sex with me, please tell me, okay?"


    Madelyn almost cried, and her pretty nose was red...


    Benjamin got close to the root of her ear and made a shameless request in a husky voice.


    Madelyn refused him, but he was terribly overbearing. In the end, she epted the request with a


    show of reluctance.


    When they had sex, Benjamin''s cell phone rang.


    There was no caller identification on the call, but Madelyn guessed it was Eleanor.


    She turned her back and whispered, "Answer the phone!"


    Benjamin nced at the phone. Then he screened the call and directly switched the phone off.


    He didn''t do what Madelyn disliked anymore but just hugged her from behind.


    "I will never meet her in the future, and we will still be the same as before, okay?"


    Madelyn didn''t say a word.


    However, Benjamin behaved very well tonight. Besides, Madelyn liked him. So she was swayed when


    he pleased her like this.


    Madelyn tried her best to be reserved and not respond to Benjamin.


    But when Benjamin rubbed and touched her body, she didn''t refuse anymore.


    ...


    Madelyn became busy.


    The rtionship between Madelyn and Benjamin was the same as before. It was just Benjamin rarely


    went out to entertain clients anymore. Even if he didn''te back for the night, it was because he


    worked overtime in the office.


    As for Eleanor, she seemed to disappear from their lives.


    Madelyn treated Benjamin tepidly.


    Benjamin wanted to make love the night before, and Madelyn didn''t push him away. She agreed but


    didn''t have passionate responses.


    Benjamin only made love once that night.


    After the sex, he leaned against the head of the bed and smoked without saying anything.


    He looked at Madelyn with deep eyes, which made her a sense of being seen through.


    Since Eleanor returned, it was different from before when they made love.


    ...


    The music studio was about to open, and Madelyn received a lot of congrattory gifts. Various gift


    boxes were piled on her desk.


    Madelyn unwrapped the boxes and registered separately because she would return the favor in the


    future.


    When she unwrapped a golden box, she paid attention to the external packing and found the writing on


    it was a bit familiar.


    After looking at it closely, Madelyn found the gift was from Benjamin.


    Madelyn was quite surprised that Benjamin had sent the gift to the music studio. It was a small surprise


    after all, and no woman would dislike it.


    Madelyn opened the box gently.


    She thought Benjamin would give her precious jewelry, but what she didn''t expect was that there was a


    pair of thousand-year-old butterfly specimens in it.


    The size difference between the two butterflies was obvious.


    Madelyn guessed they should be one male and one female.


    The specimens were bright-colored and vivid. They were well-preserved and rare.


    Benjamin also sent a card.


    Madelyn opened it gently.


    There was only one sentence, "For my Little Morning Dew."


    Madelyn was still young. Although she was wary of Benjamin and disappointed in him, she felt happy


    because of such a gift and such sweet words.


    She stroked the card, and her tough heart quietly softened.


    At this moment, the phone rang. It was a call from Benjamin.


    After hesitating for a moment, Madelyn answered the phone.


    Benjamin asked in a gentle voice, "Did you receive the gift? Do you like it?"


    Madelyn gave a positive answer.


    She said, "They''re butterflies from the Ice Age in Ufona Continent. To this day, only this pair is left.


    Benjamin, how do you know that I liked this in high school?"


    Benjamin chuckled.


    He was sitting in the office, and his body rotated gently with the leather office chair.


    He did not answer Madelyn''s question but only said softly, "Go back to the apartment for dinner at


    night? The food was delivered from the rks'' mansion. We can open a bottle of red wine. What do


    you think?"


    Madelyn was not an ignorant and innocent little girl.


    Benjamin''s invitation obviously showed that he wanted to have sex with her and that he also wanted


    her enthusiastic response.

 Chapter 126 It Turns Out That Im Overconfident!

    Chapter 126 It Turns Out That I''m Overconfident!


    Chapter 126 It Turns Out That I''m Overconfident!


    Madelyn was silent for a long time.


    Benjamin was patient and he said softly, "I will pick you up at night."


    After a long time, Madelyn heard herself say okay.


    She knew Benjamin would put his mind to what he wanted.


    Benjamin wanted to have sex with Madelyn, so he was pleasing her. Madelyn didn''t know why he


    understood women very much, but she knew she couldn''t refuse him when he tried his best to please


    her.


    This night was more romantic and crazy than all the nights they spent before.


    Every ce in the apartment was filled with Benjamin''s sweet words!


    Benjamin hugged Madelyn and made love for most of the night...


    Madelyn must admit that she got the best enjoyment and the most exciting senses from Benjamin.


    Early in the morning.


    When Madelyn woke up, Benjamin was wearing a tie by the bed.


    Seeing Madelyn awake, Benjamin leaned over and kissed her.


    "Are you really going to the opening banquet?" Madelyn asked softly, and her eyes became shining


    again afterst night.


    Benjamin replied, "Yes. There may be a court trial that will be heldter, but it is no problem to get there


    at nine o''clock in the evening. How will you introduce me then?"


    Madelyn put her arms around Benjamin''s neck and said something.


    Benjamin changed his look slightly. If it weren''t for being in a hurry, he would have sex with Madelyn on


    the spot.


    He would plead a case in court this morning, so he left soon.


    Madelyn''s body was a little sore. However, the music studio was run by her and Penelope. She had no


    reason to keep Penelope busy alone, so she took a break for a while and got up.


    Madelyn had been receiving parents all day.


    It wasn''t until 6 p.m. that she had time to rush back to the apartment and change into clothes suitable


    for the dinner party.


    Madelyn was wearing a long light pink bodycon dress, showing her slender waist.


    She wore her long brown hair in a bun and a pair of pearl earrings.


    She looked particrly beautiful and elegant.


    After wearing makeup, Madelyn looked at herself in the mirror and couldn''t help flushing.


    She thought her current dress seemed to deliberately cater to Benjamin''s aesthetic. She knew what


    kind of woman he liked and knew how to dress up to make him want to hug her.


    Madelyn didn''t dare to think deeply.


    After cleaning up the things, she went downstairs and was ready to set off.


    Today was a very important day for Madelyn. Her father and Cam would alsoe to the party, and


    Benjamin had said he wanted to meet them. Although Madelyn tried her best to restrain herself, she


    knew she was faintly looking forward to it.


    She thought, "Perhaps, Benjamin treats me differently. Perhaps, this time he is serious about our


    rtionship..."


    Madelyn sat in the car and sent Benjamin a text message.


    [I''m going to the hotel. Send me a message when you arrive.]


    About 10 minutes after Madelyn sent the text message, Benjamin replied okay. Madelyn knew that he


    was very busy today, so she didn''t bother him anymore.


    Madelyn drove to the hotel alone.


    Her parents and friends had already arrived, and Madelyn was entertaining them.


    Cam waited for a long time without seeing Benjamin, then she pulled Madelyn aside and asked


    quietly, "Where is Mr. rk? Didn''t you say he woulde here?"


    Madelyn said with a smile, "He may bete for a court trial."


    Cam breathed a sigh of relief.


    "So it is. I thought you two had another argument."


    Madelyn didn''t speak. She was glowing, which obviously showed she was spoiled by a man. Cam


    had been down this road before, so she didn''t ask again after taking a closer look at Madelyn.


    At this moment, Penelope came over.


    She took a gift list in her hand.


    "There are two unsuitable cash gifts, and I think I have to tell you."


    Madelyn didn''t think too much. She took the list and asked, "What''s the problem?"


    After reading the list, she was silent.


    One sum was paid by Daniel, and it was 800 thousand dors.


    The other sum was paid by David, and it was also 800 thousand dors.


    Penelope coughed softly and asked, "Did they discuss it in advance, or did they do it on purpose to get


    angry with each other?"


    Madelyn thought for a while and said, "The two cash gifts are really not suitable for epting. Return


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    themter."


    Penelope gave Madelyn a thumbs up and then praised her, "You are quite suitable for a light-colored


    dress. Every time you wear it, you look so different from others. It may be because of your skin!


    Madelyn, your skin is very delicate."


    Madelyn smiled slightly.


    She raised her hand and looked at the watch. It was past 8:30 p.m.


    Madelyn thought, "Benjamin should be here after a while..."


    Madelyn didn''t want to disturb Benjamin''s work, so she didn''t call him.


    It was 9 p.m.


    It was 9:30 p.m.


    Benjamin still hadn''te. Cam was a little anxious. She pulled Madelyn over and whispered, "Why


    hasn''t hee yet? Your father asked about it just now."


    Madelyn walked to the terrace and dialed Benjamin''s phone number.


    Benjamin''s phone was switched off.


    Madelyn''s face gradually turned pale.


    Madelyn said to Cam with a wry smile, "Maybe he''s already on the way."


    Although Cam was hopeful, she could tell that Madelyn was embarrassed. Sheforted softly, "I''ll


    make an excuse to tell your father. Madelyn... Don''t take it to heart."


    Madelyn whispered okay.


    Cam left.


    Madelyn was still standing on the terrace. After hesitating for a moment, she dialed Paisley''s phone


    number.


    Paisley was surprised when she received Madelyn''s call.


    "Mr. rk left at 8:30 p.m."


    Madelyn thanked Paisley.


    Madelyn thought Benjamin might be in a traffic jam on the road.


    She was still hopeful, hoping that at this important time in her life, Benjamin could show up and say to


    her, "Congrattions, my Little Morning Dew."


    But no...


    The lively dinner partysted until 10:30 p.m., and the guests left one after another. Even Samuel and


    Cam left by car under the arrangement, and Benjamin still did not show up.


    Benjamin''s phone was still switched off.


    Madelyn knew the nature of Benjamin''s work, as well as his cautious personality, and Benjamin


    generally did not switch off the phone easily.


    Madelyn felt something faintly but she didn''t want to believe it.


    They got along so well these days, and Madelyn didn''t want to think that Benjamin destroyed the


    bnce between them because of that person. She thought quietly that they should have a good talk


    when they met.


    Madelyn and Penelope were thest people to leave.


    When Madelyn got in the car, a sh of lightning suddenly appeared in the sky.


    The night sky was bright suddenly, like being torn apart, making people shocked.


    The heavy rain was pouring down.


    Madelyn dialed Benjamin''s phone number again, but the phone was still switched off.


    She lowered her eyes and started the car...


    The rain was getting heavier and heavier.


    The rain wipers kept swaying. The windscreen ss was misty, and Madelyn felt that her mind was a


    mess. She thought it was a bit dangerous to drive on such a rainy day.


    After driving for a while, Madelyn parked her car on the side of the road.


    There was a hotel nearby. Madelyn hesitated whether to spend the night here, but she immediately


    thought of Benjamin.


    She thought, "His phone is switched off. Could it be that something happened to him?"


    Madelyn took out her mobile phone and wanted to call Benjamin again to see if his phone was still


    switched off.


    However, when she held the phone in her ear, she froze.


    A golden Bentley Continental stopped across the road, and Madelyn saw Benjamin through a ss.


    Benjamin sat quietly with a confused and pained look that Madelyn had never seen before.


    At this moment, the car door opened...


    A slender figure rushed out of the passenger seat, and Madelyn recognized it was Eleanor.


    Eleanor ran willfully on this rainy night! After more than ten seconds, Benjamin got out of the car. He


    quickly took a few steps before catching up with her and then pulled her, and Eleanor fell into his arms.


    Madelyn''s hand holding the phone froze.


    She thought, "It turns out that this is the reason why he switched off his phone and why he broke the


    appointment!"


    The wipers kept swinging.


    Everything in front of Madelyn was clear yet vague.


    Madelyn saw that Eleanor hugged Benjamin''s waist and that Benjamin didn''t push Eleanor away.


    Eleanor seemed to be crying.


    Benjamin put his hand gently on Eleanor''s head, with a hesitant and pained look.


    Seeing the couple who had loved each other deeply, Madelyn suddenlyughed softly and thought, "It


    turns out that I''m overconfident!"

 Chapter 127 How Could I Have Thought He Really Liked Me?

    Chapter 127 How Could I Have Thought He Really Liked Me?


    Chapter 127 How Could I Have Thought He Really Liked Me?


    Until now, Madelyn finally knew that Benjamin only didn''t care about her.


    She thought, "That''s right. Only me! Well, I was so confident before that I felt I was more important than


    Eleanor in Benjamin''s heart. It''s so ridiculous! How could I have thought he was serious about our


    rtionship? How could I have thought he wanted to see my parents? It''s just... It''s just that I''m self-


    assertion!"


    Madelyn''s lips trembled.


    Madelyn didn''t want to watch the old lovers hug anymore. Every moment of their hug cut Madelyn to


    the quick.


    It made her heart hurt and made her embarrassed to the extreme.


    Madelyn held the steering wheel. At this time, no matter how bad the weather was and how dangerous


    it was to drive, she just wanted to leave the ce that was like a ughterhouse.


    But Benjamin saw Madelyn.


    They looked at each other through the rain.


    Madelyn was sitting in the car, while Benjamin stood in the rain holding his beloved woman


    affectionately.


    Time seemed to freeze.


    Madelyn''s eyes were sour. Madelyn stopped looking at Benjamin, lowered her eyes, and smiled


    slightly.


    She thought, "It really difits me !"


    She wanted to drive away, but Benjamin had already pushed Eleanor away and strode toward this side.


    He stretched out his hand and wanted to open the car door.


    Madelyn locked the door.


    Benjamin patted the car window of the driver''s seat and shouted loudly.


    "Madelyn! Madelyn, open the door!"


    ...


    Madelyn turned her head stiffly and looked at Benjamin. At this time, her eyes were full of tears.


    Madelyn knew she was not good-looking and so undignified now.


    But she didn''t have the strength to hide it.


    Benjamin looked into Madelyn''s eyes and was a little shocked. He patted the car door hard and


    continued to shout, "Madelyn, open the door!"


    The rain poured into Benjamin''s mouth, covering his volume.


    Madelynughed at herself in a daze and thought, "It''s so difficult for him from a rich family to exin


    and apologize to me. And I don''t want his exnation and apologize anymore!"


    Madelyn stepped on the gas lightly.


    She drove her white BMW away slowly in the rain.


    Because of the rotation of the wheels, water sshed on the ground, rippling.


    Benjamin was forced to take a few steps back.


    He stood in the rain, motionless.


    He only thought Madelyn cried with red eyes in his mind.


    He wondered how long Madelyn had watched and how long she had been crying.


    Eleanor ran over.


    Looking in the direction of the white car leaving, Eleanor whispered, "Ben, I''m sorry. I made your


    girlfriend angry! I didn''t mean to. I was just sad. I just wanted to drink. I just took things too hard and


    wanted tomit suicide!"


    Benjamin did not speak.


    He wanted to smoke, but when he took out the smoke from his pocket, the smoke was already damp.


    He threw away the cigarette case fiercely and said a dirty word.


    Eleanor was beside Benjamin and said cautiously, "Ben, if I hadn''t thrown your phone into the water


    willfully, Madelyn wouldn''t be so angry."


    Benjamin walked towards Bentley Continental expressionlessly.


    The water all over him made a mess of the car, but he didn''t care about it.


    Eleanor got into the car and wanted to say something.


    Benjamin said coldly, "Eleanor, it''s thest time! If you want to take your own life, just call 911 in the


    future."


    Eleanor cried bitterly.


    She sobbed and said intermittently, "Ben, you don''t care about me anymore, do you? You''re the only


    family I have in Gredax!"


    Benjamin nced sideways at Eleanor.


    Tonight William called and asked Benjamin to see Eleanor. Benjamin nned to find Madelyn after


    settling Eleanor, but Eleanor drank and attempted suicide. She also threw his mobile phone into the


    fish tank.


    Benjamin said expressionlessly, "I''m sending you back!"


    ...


    Madelyn did not return to the apartment.


    The rain was heavy, and she didn''t want to go back there anymore.


    Madelyn parked her car in front of a hotel.


    When she got out of the car, her whole body was wet. Her face was pale and her white teeth were


    trembling.


    The receptionist quickly checked in for Madelyn and handed her the room card and paper towel.


    "Miss, this is your room card for Room 1804."


    Madelyn wiped the water on her body and thanked the receptionist in a low voice.


    After arriving in the room, Madelyn ran a bath.


    The beautiful dress was thrown into the trash can, and it was wet and wrinkled together, just as pitiful


    as Madelyn herself.


    Madelyn was in the bathtub.


    She was in an extremely bad mood and really wanted to drink some wine.


    After drinking half a ss, Madelyn leaned on the edge of the bathtub and smiled softly. She didn''t


    want to remember the scene, but when she closed her eyes, her mind was full of Benjamin hugging


    Eleanor.


    Madelyn remembered Benjamin''s words, "I will never meet her in the future, and we will still be the


    same as before!"


    She thought, "He also sent me such beautiful specimens to please me. I was so moved to have sex


    with him for most of the night and satisfy his sexual desire. But it''s only been a few days! He hugged


    Eleanor with a look of affection."


    Madelynughed with tears.


    She continued to think, "I deserve it! It''s all my fault to believe in him and like him. How could I have


    thought he really liked me?"


    Madelyn was in the bathtub for half an hour, and she had no strength at all.


    The doorbell rang.


    Madelyn originally thought it was room service, so she got up and wore a bathrobe.


    But when the door opened, Benjamin stood outside.


    He was no better than Madelyn. His whole body was wet.


    Madelyn blocked the door.


    Benjamin looked at her with deep eyes and said in a very hoarse voice, "Madelyn, let me in."


    Madelyn turned sideways and let Benjamin in.


    She thought, "We really need to have a talk. In the current situation, it is better to make some things


    clear."


    Benjamin took a towel to wipe his face.


    Then he stretched out his hand towards Madelyn.


    This action was actually intimate, but Madelyn was indifferent. She said lightly, "If you have something


    to say, just say it! These...are not necessary."


    Benjamin knew Madelyn was angry.


    He had lived with her for some time and always knew that she had a temper. Usually, the innocuous


    things were over after she got angry. But if he didn''t exin or coax her, she would probably be angry


    for a long time about today''s thing.


    Benjamin walked up to Madelyn and said in a low voice, "I didn''t want to meet her. Mr. Bet asked


    me to see her. He said that Eleanor was in a bad state."


    Madelyn just listened indifferently.


    Benjamin stroked her face and said, "It''s normal for you to be angry. Eleanor threw my phone in the


    water, so I didn''t call you."


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled softly.


    She looked up at Benjamin and said, "Benjamin, are you exining or telling a lie now?"


    Benjamin frowned slightly.


    A man like him with such a high status didn''t need to exin anything to a woman, let alone be meek


    and subservient.


    Madelyn smiled again.


    "Are you sure you couldn''t make a phone call? You just don''t care about me enough! Benjamin, you


    and Eleanor have a falling out, but you still have a friendship because of your parents. You two still


    have sweet memories of your childhood. However, I, Madelyn, have nothing! Well, I''m just a sugar


    baby who sleeps with you."


    ...


    Madelyn''s eyes turned red as she said, but she tried her best to not cry.


    She thought, "It''s not worth crying for such a person!"


    "You are not!"


    Benjamin frowned deeply and wanted to touch Madelyn.


    But Madelyn didn''t let Benjamin touch her. She took a step back and looked at him.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    She said softly yet firmly, "You are right. I am not! Benjamin, have you ever seen a sugar baby have to


    prepare meals, wear a tie, deliver your dry cleaning clothes, do housework, and run a bath for you?"

 Chapter 128 Benjamin, Our Relationship Is Over!

    Chapter 128 Benjamin, Our Rtionship Is Over!


    Chapter 128 Benjamin, Our Rtionship Is Over!


    The atmosphere was terrifyingly silent.


    Madelyn directly told Benjamin about her thoughts. "No woman who just sleeps with you has to prepare


    a good meal and wait for you to go home every day. Benjamin, you can''t humiliate me like this!"


    Benjamin rolled his Adam''s apple gently.


    He didn''t even know what he was enjoying made Madelyn so painful.


    Benjamin stared at Madelyn with his deep eyes.


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    After a while, he whispered, "I didn''t know you cared about it so much!"


    Madelyn sneered.


    She looked at Benjamin and said bluntly, "I just care about it. I just take it seriously! Benjamin, I''m just a


    sore loser, so what?"


    Madelyn suddenly calmed down.


    She said tiredly, "Benjamin, our rtionship is over!"


    Benjamin stared at Madelyn.


    After a while, he said, "Just because of today''s thing, you want to break up with me, don''t you?


    Madelyn, do you think our rtionship can be over if I don''t want to?"


    Madelyn''s eyes turned red.


    Madelyn certainly knew the answer.


    She knew Benjamin''s abilities very well. He didn''t want to get married and could causally flirt with a


    woman he was interested in.


    She thought, "I''m probably the most interesting woman he has ever seen, so he hasn''t gotten tired of


    me until now! Bully for him! Fuck off!"


    Madelyn clenched her fingers and tried her best to restrain herself.


    She pretended to be indifferent and said, "It''s okay to keep the rtionship! If Mr. rk needs to make


    love in the future, just call me, and I will be on call!"


    ...


    Benjamin stared at Madelyn''s face and said in a very soft tone, "If I need to vent my sexual desire, you


    will go to the apartment to sleep with me. Is that what you mean? Madelyn, are you going to move out


    of our home?"


    After speaking, Benjamin took a step forward and pressed Madelyn against the TV stand.


    The TV screen showed their ovepping figures, making them look particrly intimate.


    Benjamin ran out of patience.


    He had never courted or humored a woman like this.


    Benjamin pinched Madelyn''s pretty chin with anger and forcibly kissed her.


    Actually, Madelyn didn''t want to kiss Benjamin at that moment!


    But instead of pushing Benjamin away, she hugged his neck enthusiastically and kissed him deeply.


    Soon, Benjamin was aroused.


    He touched Madelyn''s face and said in a husky voice, "I want to make love."


    Madelyn also stroked Benjamin''s handsome face.


    She raised her head and whispered in his ear, "We won''t make love in the apartment! Benjamin, our


    rtionship is only worthy of doing it in a hotel! Besides, don''t say the word ''home'', because it''s not my


    home at all."


    Benjamin paused.


    He looked up at Madelyn condescendingly.


    Her face was fair and her facial features were delicate.


    But Madelyn was still calm and not aroused. She had kissed Benjamin just to cooperate with him.


    Benjamin stroked the end of Madelyn''s eyebrows, which was the part of her body he liked to touch the


    most.


    Madelyn trembled slightly.


    Benjamin was also angry. Although he wanted to have sex with Madelyn, the man''s self-esteem did not


    allow him to continue.


    Benjamin leaned down and nibbled the roots of Madelyn''s ears.


    "You are right, Ms. Green! Even if I broke up with Eleanor, we still have a friendly rtionship because


    of our parents, and Eleanor and I will never be like us. You can move out, but don''t regret it, honey!"


    Benjamin continued to say, "You are used to the wonderful sexual experience I gave you. Will it be hard


    for you to suddenly lose your sexual life?"


    Women were never a match for men in terms of hooliganism.


    Madelyn blushed with anger!


    Benjamin chuckled.


    He got up and stood at the end of the bed. He buckled his belt in front of Madelyn, and his slow


    movements were somewhat mocking.


    Madelyn knew this was Benjamin''s true color.


    No matter how good and famous he was, and no matter whether he was an excellentwyer or a


    financial talent, it was the fact that Benjamin was in a high-society circle. The men in that circle were all


    yboys and could manipte women easily.


    Madelyn kicked Benjamin angrily.


    Benjamin easily caught her foot and approached her in this posture.


    "Don''t move! In fact, Madelyn, I was usually very considerate of you. I''m sure you don''t like those tricks


    during sex."


    ...


    Madelyn''s eyes were full of tears.


    When Benjamin touched Madelyn, he actually really wanted to have sex with her, but he gritted his


    teeth and left.


    When he left, the door mmed loudly.


    Madelyn thought, "I must have made this high-status man unhappy, but it''s none of my business if he''s


    happy or not!"


    She didn''t want to move, so she tucked herself in and fell asleep in a daze.


    When Madelyn woke up, she was holding a pillow.


    She habitually murmured, "Benjamin..."


    ...


    Suddenly, Madelyn opened her eyes.


    She thought, "It''s not Benjamin! How could it be him? We fell outst night."


    Madelyn rubbed her sour and ufortable eyes. When she was about to wash her face, Penelope''s


    call came.


    "Madelyn, I have a very important matter to tell you."


    Madelyn leaned down on the pillow and asked, "What?"


    Penelope replied in an exciting yet embarrassing tone, "Madelyn, the owner of the Music Center where


    we used to work, is going to immigrate. He wants to sell the Music Center. I asked him about the price.


    It''s almost 5 million dors."


    Madelyn paused and asked, "Penelope, you want to buy it, don''t you?"


    Penelope smiled and replied, "How can I buy it by myself? I''m discussing it with you now. Madelyn, this


    is indeed a good opportunity. If we get the Music Center, we can monopolize at least 30% of the music


    market in Gredax."


    She hesitated for a moment and asked, "Madelyn, what do you think?"


    Madelyn agreed with Penelope, because the operation of the Music Center was very mature, and the


    teachers were elites in the industry.


    Madelyn knew it was a one-way bet, but...


    She told Penelope the truth.


    She said softly, "I fell out with Benjamin! So I can only take out 500 thousand dors at most."


    Penelope was not surprised.


    She thought, "Benjamin broke the appointmentst night, and it''s normal they fell out. Moreover, his


    beloved woman is also back."


    Penelope was very considerate and said, "It''s okay as long as you agree! If we don''t have the funds,


    we can raise funds. I''ll be cheeky to tter the investors, and we will definitely get the money."


    Madelyn was very moved.


    She was d that there was such a person who helped her get rid of hardship in time when she was


    frustrated.


    Madelyn said softly, "Don''t worry, Penelope. I will also think of a way."


    Penelopeforted Madelyn with a few more words, making Madelyn''s heart not hurt that much.


    Madelyn got up, called the hotel receptionist, and asked her to buy a set of clothes at the hotel mall.


    After washing up, Madelyn was about to go out.


    She didn''t trust the express delivery to send Daniel''s and David''s 800 thousand dors safely.


    She decided to return the money in person.


    ...


    Madelyn drove to send David''s check to the front desk of hispany.


    David was in a meeting.


    When he got the check, Madelyn had already driven away.


    David called Madelyn toin, "Madelyn, don''t you even give me a chance to have a meal with


    you?"


    Madelyn had always treated David well.


    She said in a gentle tone, "Next time, David. You can pick a time next time."


    David stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the 36th-floor office, ying with the blinds with


    slender fingers.


    He said in a husky voice, "Madelyn, if you break up with him, please give me a chance, okay? I won''t


    let you feel wronged."


    Madelyn was silent.


    She guessed that almost all the people in the high-society circle knew what had happenedst night.


    When Madelyn was upset, David said gently, "Take it easy, Madelyn! I just want to tell you that I''m


    waiting for you."

 Chapter 129 Her Thriving Love Life

    Chapter 129 Her Thriving Love Life


    Chapter 129 Her Thriving Love Life


    David James'' love words were so sweet, no woman could reject him.


    Madelyn''s heart was in turmoil.


    She couldn''t even recall when or how she hung up the phone.


    All she could remember was David''s final words: "What''s wrong with putting a little effort and time into


    chasing a girl? Madelyn, I''ve waited for you a long time, so I don''t mind waiting a little longer."


    Madelyn parked the car and gently stroked the steering wheel...


    She didn''t know how to reject David. After all, he had everything going for him and didn''t need to wait


    for her.


    She had been with Daniel Campbell for four years, and now she was seeing Benjamin rk.


    Madelyn knew that she could never be David''s true love.


    Sighing softly, she opened the door of the imposing Campbell Group building, the one ce she never


    wanted to return.


    Understandably, Madelyn didn''t want to see Daniel. So she handed the check to the receptionist and


    said, "Please pass this on to Mr. Campbell."


    The receptionist, who had been working at the Campbell Group for six years, recognized Madelyn


    immediately as Mr. Campbell''s ex-girlfriend.


    Outsiders believed that it was Mr. Campbell who had abandoned Ms. Green. But the rumor around at


    the Campbell Group that Mr. Campbell had changed his mind after getting engaged and tried to win her


    back, only to be rejected.


    Mr. Campbell had gone mad recently!


    The receptionist was polite and promised Madelyn, "Don''t worry, Ms. Green. I''ll make sure Mr.


    Campbell receives this." As soon as she finished speaking, she looked behind Madelyn.


    "Mr. Campbell!"


    Madelyn turned around slowly.


    Daniel stood behind her, and nobody knew how long he had been there.


    Madelyn said tly, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Campbell. I appreciate it."


    There was no need for any further pleasantries between them.


    Madelyn turned to leave, but her hand was caught tightly by Daniel.


    "Madelyn!"


    His tone was urgent, as if he was afraid she would suddenly disappear.


    Madelyn shook off his grip. "Daniel Campbell, have some self-respect!"


    Daniel smiled bitterly.


    He let go of Madelyn and said softly: "Just sit in the lobby, I''ll ask the secretary to bring you a cup of


    coffee. Madelyn ... with so many people around us, you don''t want to make a scene, do you?"


    Madelyn looked around and found that there were many employees peeking at them.


    Without listening to Daniel finish his words, she didn''t know what he would do...


    Five minutester, Madelyn sat with him in the lobby''s tearoom.


    Daniel personally brewed a cup of Mandheling coffee for Madelyn. After it was done, he said gently:


    "Would you like a sugar cube?"


    "Just one," replied Madelyn.


    Daniel handed it over to her and sat down across from her.


    Madelyn gazed at him.


    Daniel had lost a lot of weight recently, indicating that he hadn''t been living well. In the past, Madelyn


    would be very distressed, but now she felt nothing.


    It had only been a year since they broke up, but Madelyn couldn''t help but feel a bit nostalgic.


    Daniel had always been gentle, "Try it, Madelyn. If it doesn''t taste good, I''ll brew you another cup."


    Madelyn, on the other hand, was very cold.


    "Daniel Campbell, if you have something to say, just say it. I didn''te here to chat and reminisce."


    "I know," he said. His tone tinged with a bit of sadness.


    He looked Madelyn straight in the eyes and said, "The 5 million is just a small token of my appreciation.


    Madelyn, don''t reject me! I just want topensate you and treat you better. Won''t you even give me a


    chance?"


    Madelyn had a terrible timest night!


    Her head was still spinning now!


    But today, within an hour, she had heard two men confessing their love for her. One of them was her


    ex-boyfriend who had even cheated on her!


    Madelyn didn''t want to talk to him anymore. Daniel seemed relentless, however.


    She got up and said politely, "Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Campbell! I must take my leave now."


    Daniel called her back.


    He looked into her eyes and said, "Madelyn, afterst night, do you still want to be with him?"


    Madelyn''s face stiffened.


    She felt somewhat embarrassed in front of Daniel, but she still forced a smile and said, "That''s none of


    your business, Mr. Campbell!"


    Daniel knew that it was a rare opportunity.


    He lowered his voice and said, "I know you want to acquire the former Music Center, Madelyn. Let me


    help you!"


    He was afraid she might misunderstand him, so he exined, "I don''t mean anything else, this is a little


    token of my affection!"


    Madelyn wasn''t that naive.


    She gave a faint smile and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Campbell." Then she left.


    Daniel watched her back.


    He was lost in thought for a while until he noticed that Madelyn''s eyes were red. Did she cry because of


    Benjamin?


    He felt uneasy, and after a long time, he took out his phone and made a call.


    "Lincoln Scott, do me a favor and talk to the xx Music Studio."


    "You handle the matter, and I will pay for that."


    "After it''s done, you can choose any project in my hands..."


    ...


    Daniel hung up the phone.


    His gaze was deep.


    He longed to see Madelyn. She was different now, more feminine! Even if she just stayed by his side


    and talked with him, he felt...better!


    *


    Madelyn left the Campbell Group and found a real estate agent to rent a 50-square-meter apartment.


    After signing the contract, she checked the time and realized it was around 11 o''clock. At this time,


    Benjamin would definitely not be in the apartment.


    So Madelyn decided to go back to retrieve her things.


    Much to her surprise, Benjamin was at home on a weekday morning.


    She opened the door and walked in.


    Benjamin was sitting on the sofa, dressed casually and reading a magazine, clearly not having gone to


    the office.


    As soon as he saw Madelyn, mes flickered within his dark eyes.


    He didn''t say anything, probably waiting for her to speak first.


    Madelyn felt uneasy.


    She cleared her throat and said, "Ie here to get my things."


    Benjamin didn''t pay any attention to her, he just continued reading his magazine. His aloof and


    indifferent attitude made Madelyn feel even worse.


    She hurriedly went to the master bedroom to start packing.


    As she parked, she realized that she didn''t have much of her own things. Most of the clothes and


    skincare products were provided by Benjamin...


    She didn''t want to take them with her.


    As a result, she quickly packed a small leather suitcase and carried it lightly, making it convenient to


    leave.


    Before Madelyn could leave, Benjamin stopped her at the door and leaned in close to her.


    He looked at her intently and said, "Ms. Green, have you forgotten something?"


    Madelyn ced the keys on the bedside table.


    Then she took out the bank card that he had given her, which had been unused for a long time but was


    still in her wallet, and gave it back to him...


    Finally, she whispered, "The valuable jewelry and those clothes are still here. You can have your


    secretary check them."


    Benjamin''s face looked very angry.


    He snorted lightly and said, "Don''t you feed the dog downstairs anymore?"


    Madelyn remembered the little white dog. She couldn''t bear to leave it behind. Maybe she woulde


    back and feed it secretly in the future!


    But she said, "I won''t feed it anymore! It doesn''t recognize me!"


    Benjamin remained silent.


    Madelyn was ready to leave with her suitcase.


    Benjamin stopped her at the door and lowered his head. His prominent nose was very close to her, so


    close that their breath mixed together...


    Madelyn nced downward.


    She looked away and said, "If Mr. rk needs me, just give me a call. I''ll be there anytime."


    Benjamin stared at her intently.


    His gaze was one she had never seen before, angry and irritated!


    After a moment, he suddenly rxed and said with a sneer, "Ms. Green, you''re an expert at getting


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    people riled up!"

 Chapter 130 Cleared the Nest for Them

    Chapter 130 Cleared the Nest for Them


    Chapter 130 Cleared the Nest for Them


    Madelyn kicked Benjamin angrily, making him wince in pain.


    She then grabbed her suitcase and tried to walk away, but Benjamin''s long legs caught up with her just


    as she was about to open the door.


    "Are you really leaving?" Benjamin asked, looking at her with a deep gaze.


    Madelyn looked down, her voice soft. "Let me go!"


    Lowering his head, Benjamin leaned in toward her, his tone bing softer. "The rks'' mansion has


    sent food over. Let''s have a meal together."


    But Madelyn knew this was his trick.


    Benjamin always used tenderness to win over women, and it always worked.


    Madelyn had once fallen for his "gentle love" again and again, only to find outter that he was ying


    around and she was the only one taking it seriously.


    A self-deprecating smile emerged.


    "I don''t want to eat and there''s no need!" she said in a firm tone.


    Benjamin frowned slightly, but he didn''t let go of her hand.


    Suddenly, their conflict was interrupted by the doorbell ringing.


    Madelyn knew who was at the door ¨C who else but Eleanor Bet?


    She sneered, "Benjamin rk, there are plenty of people who want to have a meal with you, there''s no


    need totch on to me!"


    Benjamin''s face twisted in disgust, and he finally released her hand.


    Madelyn took a deep breath and opened the door.


    As expected, Eleanor was standing outside with a gift.


    She noticed Madelyn''s suitcase and her eyes nted innocently, like a fox.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    "Ms. Green, I came to apologize," Eleanor said, her voiceced with guilt.


    "It''s my fault that you and Ben had a fight. I''m so sorry! "


    "Did I... affect your rtionship?"


    ...


    Madelyn couldn''t help but feel disgusted.


    She swiftly grabbed her suitcase and marched towards the elevator, all while Benjamin called out


    "Madelyn!" in a displeased manner from behind.


    They did have a fightst night.


    But today he purposely didn''t go to the office and waited for her instead.


    He already exined himself and conceded, so why was she being so stubborn?


    Madelyn paused, her eyes wet.


    She finally realized that she had fallen in love with Benjamin during their time together, but he only saw


    her as some form of amusement.


    She refused to live with him, cooking and acting like a devoted wife waiting for him toe home.If she


    continue to live with him, cook for him and act like a devoted wife waiting for him toe home, that


    would be too cheap of her.


    That would be too cheap of her!


    Madelyn turned around but didn''t look at Benjamin.


    Instead, she spoke to Eleanor with a cold tone, "Congrattions, Ms. Bet. Whether it''s Morning


    Dew, the white dress, or even Benjamin rk himself, they''re all yours. Enjoy it!"


    The elevator doors opened.


    Madelyn stepped in and threw out another remark.


    "I''ve already cleared the nest for you two!"


    ...


    Benjamin kept staring at the closed elevator doors, his face looking gloomy.


    Eleanor stepped forward.


    She spoke softly, "Did you two have a fight?"


    Benjamin''s tone was not friendly in response, "What are you here for?"


    But despite his unfriendliness, Eleanor held up the gift box in her hand and said, "I came to apologize


    to Ms. Green!"


    "No need!"


    Benjamin lowered his head to light a cigarette. He took a slow puff and said, "As I saidst night, don''t


    psychologist."


    Eleanor''s face turned pale.


    She appeared pitiful enough to make any man feel sorry for her.


    "Ben, do you really want to let an unrted woman ruin our rtionship? We have built it up since


    childhood!" she pleaded.


    "I don''t believe you care about her."


    ...


    Benjamin''s expression grew even colder.


    He said, "Eleanor, it''s fine for a woman to put on an act sometimes, but if you try too hard, it just seems


    too pretentious!"


    As he thought about Madelyn, his heart softened. They were both straightforward people.


    When she liked him, her eyes were tender and charming. But when she didn''t, she wouldn''t hesitate to


    say it was over, without dragging it out.


    Benjamin was always surrounded by women who adored and pursued him since childhood. And no


    one dared to provoke him or throw a tantrum, not even Eleanor when she was angry.


    But Madelyn was totally different! He had invited a princess who was not afraid to stand up to him!


    He felt upset and angry.


    As he returned to his apartment and was about to close the door, Eleanor blocked his way.


    He didn''t let her in: "Eleanor, we ended it a long time ago!"


    ...


    After a while, she spoke softly.


    "If I cancel the engagement with him, Ben, is there any chance for us to be together?"


    Benjamin stared at her.


    After a long while, he sneered, "What do you think?"


    Then he shook off her hands and mmed the door.


    It was quiet.


    He could hear Eleanor crying outside, but it no longer mattered to him.


    As he entered the kitchen, he noticed there were still a few dishes left in the thermal cooker that


    Madelyn loved to eat, which he had specifically asked the chef to make for her.


    Despite her anger, he was willing to soften his stance and coax her.


    But she left without a second thought.


    The apartment was now eerily silent.


    Benjamin could no longer bear the emptiness.


    With an expressionless face, he took the dishes out and dumped them into a trash bag. After changing


    his clothes, he tossed the bag into the dumpster downstairs.


    To him, she was just a woman - whether she stayed or left, it wouldn''t affect him at all.


    Benjamin wouldn''t waste too much effort on a woman!


    *


    Madelyn carried her luggage and drove to the small apartment she rented.


    It may have been small, but it had everything she needed.


    Quickly, she tidied up the ce and added some daily necessities to make it feel more like home.


    Over the following days, neither Madelyn nor Benjamin reached out to one another. There were no


    calls, no texts - nothing.


    Madelyn gradually grew ustomed to being alone.


    She kept herself upied in the music room from dawn to dusk, and it was fulfilling.


    A weekter, Penelope''s financing n finally had a breakthrough.


    A property developer named Lincoln Scott had agreed to invest 20 million into the project. Everything


    was going well, but he had one condition: he insisted on meeting with another partner.


    Penelope shared her concerns with Madelyn, "What if he has ulterior motives?"


    Regardless, they agreed to meet with Mr. Scott. To their surprise, he was extremely polite and kind,


    even inviting them to dinner.


    He was quite the gentleman.


    "Ms. Green, I''ve heard you''re an excellent piano teacher. I have a daughter. If you don''t mind, I''d like to


    bring her to you to see if she has any talent in piano. If she does, she can learn from you in the future."


    Well, it sounded perfect.


    Penelope gave Madelyn a wink.


    Madelyn smiled and shook hands with Lincoln. "Thank you for your kind words, Mr. Scott. Actually, we


    should be treating you to dinner."


    Lincoln was gracious and signed a precontract agreement on the spot.


    Madelyn noticed the payment ount was from a newly registeredpany called "Long Yearning."


    Lincoln noticed her expression and smiled meaningfully..


    He shook her hand once again and said, "Ms. Waylon, Ms. Green. My wife and I invite you to dinner on


    this Saturday. Please don''t stand us up."


    After that, Lincoln left.


    As he sat in his car, he sent a Whatsapp message to Daniel: "It''s done, my friend!"


    Daniel responded immediately, "Thank you, Lincoln. I''ll treat you to dinner tonight."


    ...


    After seeing off Lincoln, Penelope kissed the contract several times.


    She said, "Mr. Scott probably only came to see us because of his daughter. Madelyn, you''re the hero of


    our music studio this time!"


    Madelyn ground coffee beans and brewed two cups of coffee.


    She handed one cup to Penelope.


    Madelyn frowned.


    For some reason, she felt like the deal was progressing too smoothly... or unnaturally smooth.


    Suddenly, David called.


    "Madelyn, care to take me to dinner?" His voice boomed through the phone.

 Chapter 131 Angry and Anxious Benjamin

    Chapter 131 Angry and Anxious Benjamin


    Chapter 131 Angry and Anxious Benjamin


    David had picked out a pretty nice Zistin restaurant for this dinner with Madelyn.


    It was exactly 8 o''clock when she arrived.


    David was already waiting for her in the parking lot. As soon as she stopped the car, he gantly


    opened the door for her.


    "It''s not easy to make you ept a dinner invitation." He said.


    Madelyn got out of the car and held onto the door, smiling. "I was teaching Florence piano at your


    house two days ago. Mr. James treated me to dinner, but you weren''t there!"


    David stared at her intently and spoke slowly, "Madelyn, you know what I want, it''s not about that."


    Madelyn hesitated for a moment and then decided to tell the truth.


    She said: "David, you know my situation. We''re not a good match."


    David stilled to stare at her.


    The atmosphere suddenly turned tense. This was the first time Madelyn felt a pure kind of male


    aggressiveness radiating from David. Even though he did nothing, she felt a tremendous amount of


    pressure.


    But David suddenlyughed lightly.


    He lowered his head and murmured like a lover, "It''s just a meal, Madelyn. If you feel too much


    pressure, I won''t dare to ask you out again."


    Heforted her, "Well, this meal is to celebrate your sessful career."


    David was a bright and likable guy, and Madelyn couldn''t help but smile.


    She closed the car door and walked into the restaurant side by side with him.


    David had booked a table, but unfortunately, Benjamin happened to be there too.


    He was dining with a well-mannered woman in her fifties - someone who was clearly an elder that he


    knew well.


    David also recognized her and greeted them briefly.


    Benjamin looked up, first at David, and then slowly turned his gaze towards Madelyn.


    Madelyn felt embarrassed when he noticed her presence.


    With an air of unwarranted familiarity, Benjamin wiped his lips with a napkin and leisurely remarked,


    "Now that Ms. Green lives alone, without any restraints, it must be quite easy for her to have a


    boyfriend."


    David raised his eyebrows.


    "What a sourment!" He thought.


    He held on Benjamin''s chairback with a smile and replied, "Benjamin also lives alone, so it must be


    quite convenient for him as well!"


    Benjamin narrowed his eyes.


    But David kept his sweet demeanor.


    The unpleasant atmosphere was even noticed by the elder dining with them. She whispered, "Ben,


    who is this youngdy?"


    Benjamin was still angry with Madelyn and naturally couldn''t reveal that she was his girlfriend.


    He gave a faint smile and was about to shrug it off.


    But David took advantage of the moment and blinked his eyes sweetly. "Mrs. Walker, this is my friend


    Madelyn Green, what do you think of her?"


    As a housewife, Mrs. Walker was unlikely to know the truth, so she smiled and said, "Pretty good!"


    Then she turned to Benjamin and mentioned, "Last time your mother told me that you had a girlfriend


    born in the Year of the Rabbit. The fortune teller was right! Bring her over one day and I''ll treat her to a


    meal."


    Benjamin: ...


    David: ...


    Thankfully, they restrained themselves in front of their elders and didn''t start fighting in the restaurant.


    David respected Madelyn and didn''t want to embarrass her.


    After a while, Benjamin left, leaving Madelyn feeling much more rxed.


    Throughout the meal, she had felt uneasy, as though Benjamin was always scrutinizing her.


    "You still like him!" David''s voice rang in her ear.


    Madelyn was stunned by his statement.


    David''s narrow beautiful eyes were just inches away, alluring and charming.


    His voice was also hoarse and sexy, "Last time I told you to give me a try and you''ll see a different


    Benjamin rk. Look, he almost beat me up in a fancy restaurant just now!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes.


    Their rtionship was almost over, so it was futile to talk about it any further.


    David, being the graceful and tactful person that he was, smiled and said nothing more.


    Madelyn feltpletely at ease in David''spany, cherishing him as a close friend.


    He always stood up when she needed him.


    After dinner, David suggested taking a stroll to help with digestion and possibly catching a good movie


    on the way.


    However, Madelyn felt that his proposal was a bit too ambiguous, and so turned down the offer.


    Under the re of the streetlights, David courteously opened the car door for her and couldn''t help but


    chuckle, "Ms. Green, you are so guarded!"


    Madelyn fastened her seatbelt.


    She looked up at him and whispered, "I value our friendship. And that''s why I can''t take it any further."


    David stared back at her without speaking a word. Eventually, he stepped back, allowing her to drive


    away.


    As Madelyn''s car gradually disappeared from view, a sly smirk crossed his lips.


    Friendship...


    Who the f*** needs friendship!


    He, David James, only wants to marry her and have children with her...


    *


    Madelyn slowly drove back to her small apartment.


    Under the shade of arge tree, a shy golden Bentley was parked.


    Benjamin, exquisitely dressed in formal attire, leaned against the car door, puffing away on a cigarette.


    A wealthy and charming man with impable taste, he couldn''t help but capture the attention of


    anyone nearby.


    As young girls passing by flirtatiously smiled and attempted to catch his attention, Benjamin stubbornly


    locked his gaze onto Madelyn as she approached...


    He took a deep drag of his cigarette, his cheeks sinking in as he exhaled the smoke, entuating his


    ruggedly handsome features beneath the tree''s shadows.


    Madelyn never doubted that if Benjamin took advantage of his appearance to date or fool around, he


    would find it a piece of cake.


    He looked gorgeous!

    Madelyn walked over, asking "Mr. rk, is everything okay?"


    Benjamin flicked his cigarette butt away and extinguished it with a scuff of his shoe.


    "Why don''t you invite me up for a visit?" he asked.


    Madelyn remained unmoved. After a long pause, she croaked, "Do you want to? If so, we can go to a


    hotel."


    Benjamin frowned, "Why bother with a hotel when you live here?"


    He knew that Madelyn disliked hotels. Obviously, she was trying to provoke him now.


    "Come on! Stop fooling around!" Benjamin lowered his tone and added, "Are you still angry after all this


    time? There''s nothing between me and Eleanor!"


    Madelyn wasn''t easily swayed.


    She looked at his car and said, "Mr. rk, I''m serious. I don''t have the right to do so. I just think that


    our rtionship is better suited for a hotel room... Let''s take your car, and I''ll take a taxi backter."


    Benjamin''s gaze darkened.


    He stared at her for a while and then got into his car.


    After fastening his seatbelt, Madelyn sat down beside him.


    Benjamin intentionally tossed a small box onto the center console and smirked, "You better n on


    staying overnight at the hotel! I''m afraid you won''t be able to get out of bed."


    Madelyn turned her face away.


    "What a jerk he was!" She thought.


    Benjamin looked at her for a while, but when she said nothing in response, he grew angrier.


    He sped off to a nearby five-star hotel.


    When they got the room key, even the receptionist could sense something wrong. She dared to


    breathe.


    Benjamin grabbed the room key and walked ahead quickly.


    Madelyn followed slowly behind him and entered the elevator.


    This was the second time she hade to a hotel with him. Last time the terrible experience made her


    dazed and frightened.


    Silence filled the elevator.


    Benjamin''s hands jammed in his pockets and his face a mask of indifference.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but wonder why he kept ying with fire.


    Even though they hade here for a good time, they looked as if they were suffering...


    They entered the room.


    Benjamin''s previously excited demeanor seemed to have dissipated. He casually threw the box on the


    bed and then stripped off his coat and tossed it at the foot of the bed...


    "Do you want to take a shower, Ms. Green?" he asked nonchntly.


    Madelyn had been a virgin. He was the only man she had ever known.


    But now, he spoke to her in this dismissive tone. She felt wronged and hurt, with redness in her eyes


    and nose, but she tried to remain calm.


    "No, thank you!" She replied.


    "Why not?" Benjamin suddenly got close.


    His long and slender fingers grazed her cheek. "You smell like David James! How can you not clean


    yourself?"

    Chapter 132 Thanked Him for His Kindness


    Chapter 132 Thanked Him for His Kindness


    Madelyn was furious.


    She bit her lip and shot him a venomous look, "How about you, Benjamin rk? You''re covered with


    Eleanor Bet''s scent from head to toe. Should I wash you thoroughly, inside and out?"


    "Can we please stop ming each other?"


    She wrapped her arms around his neck and breathed seductively, infuriating him beyond measure.


    Benjamin gripped her slender waist tightly.


    Though angry with her, he didn''t want to touch her, yet he couldn''t control himself.


    He leaned in for a kiss but pulled back at thest moment.


    "Ms. Green, you are so kinky..."


    "You want to clean my insides?"


    "How about we start with the outside first?"


    ...


    With that, Madelyn scooped her up into his arms and carried her toward the bathroom.


    After about five minutes.


    Sounds of intimacy between a man and a woman, including gasps and steamy pleas, emanated from


    the bathroom.


    This was the first time they had sex after their silent treatment. Madelyn waspliant and


    cooperative, but to Benjamin''s surprise, he felt a little bit... t.


    He had been celibate for a while and was eager for sex, but after their encounter, he had no desire for


    another round.


    Well, it was brilliant and exciting... but it was different...


    Something was wrong!


    Benjamin, dressed in a bathrobe, leaned at the bedside and was lost in thought.


    Madelyn came out of the bathroom. She knew he was finished tonight, so she started getting dressed.


    Benjamin looked at her quietly.


    Her dropping brows and eyes made her appear rather meek and submissive. But he knew it was


    deceptive.


    In point of fact, she had a terrible stubborn streak.


    When she was with Daniel Campbell, he had never heard her talk back or argue.


    As a man, Benjamin couldn''t help but feel a twinge of jealousy at the thought.


    He lit a cigarette and asked casually, "How long will our silent treatmentst?"


    Madelyn remained silent.


    Benjamin flicked the ash off his cigarette.


    He spoke again, "If you need financial support, I''ll invest. Whether you want to pursue your career or


    just have some fun, it''s up to you. And I can ask the housemaid to help us cook dinner, so you can


    rx and our daily life won''t be affected."


    Madelyn''s mind raced.


    Then she smiled, "Benjamin rk, I must say I''m quite ttered! Really, for someone like you to say


    such words to please me, I should feel very lucky!"


    But... she liked him!


    She could not bear to be a "canary" anymore and fully rely on him.


    Otherwise, she would look down on herself!


    But Benjamin seemed oblivious to the fact that he had promised her so much without really saying the


    most important words: "Madelyn, I like you! I want to be with you! Seriously!"


    No, all they had was physical intimacy!


    Madelyn sniffled lightly andughed at herself, "I am not that valuable!"


    Benjamin turned gloomy and angry.


    He gazed at her intently.


    Ungrateful woman!


    Madelyn knew exactly what Benjamin was thinking. He didn''t take her feelings seriously and believed


    that she should just stay at home, waiting for his love.


    But Madelyn didn''t want that.


    Despite suffering from emotional turmoil and being trapped in Benjamin''s love, she still firmly believed


    that there must be someone out there who would cherish and appreciate her.


    Madelyn fastened thest button.


    She said calmly, "Mr. rk, I''m leaving now."


    Benjamin asked, "Is it because of David James? Have you fallen for him?"


    "No!" She met his gaze squarely as he appraised her for a long time.


    Then Benjamin said, "You should stay for the night. It''s raining outside."


    His words melted her heart.


    She gazed out of the French window, raindrops cascading down the ss like a girl''s tears unable to


    cling onto her loved one, failing to stay but slip away.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but recall that night.


    He had promised to attend her opening banquet and to meet her parents. She had been so happy that


    day! But he never showed up, his phone was turned off. While she had been worried about his safety,


    he had been embracing his ex-girlfriend in the rain...


    If Eleanor Bet had kissed him, he would not have refused her.


    What''s worse, he would not have been given the chance to refuse her!


    Madelyn took a deep breath and regained herposure. "I''ll take a taxi back," she said.


    Then Madelyn opened the door and left.


    It was raining heavily outside; it was wet and cold...


    Madelyn hugged herself tightly.


    When she stopped a taxi and climbed in, her red eyes filled with tears.


    No matter how hard she tried to be strong, she could no longer bear their current rtionship.


    She used to like him so much.


    She had once eagerly awaited their rtionship...


    ...


    Benjamin also had no n to stay overnight at the hotel.


    As he dressed, he noticed a small pearl earring lying at the foot of the bed.


    He remembered being rough with her.


    Madelyn had been pinned down, her chestnut hair spread out on the white bedspread, looking


    exquisitely charming.


    Benjamin stared at the earring for a moment before picking it up and slipping it into his pocket.


    As he checked out of the hotel and considered his next move, Brianna Roberts called.


    "Ben, Avery made fresh osmanthus sugar water. Bring Madelyn over to try some."


    Benjamin, lightly stroking the steering wheel, tried toe up with a response.


    His mother was sharp and clever.


    "It''s toote," he said finally, "she must be asleep now."


    Brianna didn''t miss a beat. "Did you break up with her?"


    Benjamin was too proud to admit that his woman had left, so hezily replied, "No! She... she''s just


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    tired and probably can''t get out of bed."


    Brianna blushed and felt a bit embarrassed.


    She softly scolded her son, "Take more care of her. Do you still want children in the future? If you''re too


    rough now, you guys may have trouble conceivingter on. Don''t me her for itter!"


    She paused for a moment before continuing, "You should start a family while you''re still young. Having


    a child will give you a deeper sense of belonging to your family."


    ...


    Benjamin sighed softly, "Mom, I''lle back for supper."


    Brianna finally stopped talking.


    Benjamin got into his car and drove back to the rks'' mansion.


    He could see that the lights were on and that the house was lively, probably with guests.


    As he walked in, he saw that Daniel Campbell was hugging his sister.


    Eloise rk blushed. Obviously, she was pleased.


    Benjamin approached them.


    Daniel released his little fianc¨¦e and couldn''t resist making a joke at his expense. "Oh, my big brother,


    you smell like hotel body wash."


    Eloise yfully nudged her fianc¨¦.


    "How could my brother go to a hotel? He''s always kept his nose clean."


    Daniel smirked, "Really?"


    To their surprise, Benjamin simply sat down, unfazed by their teasing. "Actually, I just came from a


    hotel."


    Eloise was stunned.


    "Did my brother really go to a hotel?" She thought, "Was he with another woman?"


    Benjamin fished the pearl earring from his pocket and said, "Madelyn and I were getting wild and crazy,


    so she ended up losing this on the bed without even realizing it..."


    As he talked, his sharp eyes swept over Daniel.


    Daniel''s previously smiling face suddenly lost its humor...

    Chapter 133 The Real Benefactor


    Daniel''s defeat tempered Benjamin''s anger somewhat.


    Avery brought over a cup of osmanthus sugar water.


    Having watched Benjamin row up, Avery doted on him.


    "Where''s Ms. Green?" she asked. "Why didn''t you bring her back with you?"


    Benjamin paused.


    Then he took a sip of the sweet drink. "It''s toote. She''s already asleep," he replied.


    Avery nodded and exchanged a nce with Brianna before leaving.


    Brianna probed a few times, but Benjamin answered with perfectposure, refusing to let his mother


    interfere with his private life.


    Daniel clearly understood what happened.


    He chuckled lightly, "Did my big brother quarrel with Ms. Green?"


    Benjamin set down his bowl and assumed the air of an elder brother. "Daniel, it seems that the recent


    upheavals in the Campbell Group haven''t kept you busy enough."


    A dark cloud descended on Daniel''s face.


    Benjamin lost his appetite and got up to go upstairs.


    "Brother!" Eloise couldn''t hold back from calling out.


    "It seems like you have a bias against Daniel!"


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Benjamin turned around.


    His gaze turned icy and fell upon Daniel...


    "Oh, really? I hadn''t noticed!"


    "Perhaps he knows the reasons."


    Daniel''s expression grew even darker.


    Clearly, Madelyn didn''t forgive him. Benjamin failed to fix their rtionship.


    Daniel squinted his eyes and stared at the man who seemed to have everything.


    It was no surprise - women usually fawned over him and did anything to please him.


    But now, encountered Madelyn, a tough nut to crack, undoubtedly, he felt uneasy.


    Daniel remembered that day at the club. Benjamin seemed indifferent, merely ying around.


    Hehe!


    Maybe Benjamin never imagined that he would end up taking their rtionship seriously.


    As for Daniel, he didn''t waste any energy on the man who was disappointed in love.


    As he left the rks'' mansion and got into his car, he couldn''t help but nce at the calendar.


    Only two more days until he would finally meet Madelyn.


    He couldn''t wait to see the look of surprise on her face and to bask in her vivid and adorable presence.


    Daniel couldn''t help but caress the steering wheel, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness.


    ...


    Madelyn returned to her apartment after leaving the hotel.


    As she stepped out of the car, she was drenched by the raindrops inevitably.


    She immediately sought sce in a hot bath and a packet of Vitamin C, basking in thefort they


    provided.


    Although the night was already deep, Madelyn still had work to tackle.


    Despite her fatigue, she persevered and opened herptop to work on the financial report of the day.


    Work gave her temporary respite and helped her forget her worries.


    But as shey in bed at night, she couldn''t help but think about Benjamin.


    Memories of their past rtionship flooded her mind, along with the intense passion they had shared


    earlier that evening.


    Madelyn reached for a nearby pillow, burying her face in it as she tried to banish him from her thoughts.


    The following two days drifted by without any contact between her and Benjamin. She only caught


    glimpses of him in the newspapers.


    The headline red: "Unbeatable ''King of Law'' Wins International Lawsuit!"


    Countless shes illuminated his picture, even female reporters nced his way with stars in their


    eyes...


    But he stood for interviews with an expressionless, handsome face.


    Madelyn gripped her water ss, lost in thought.


    She lightly caressed the photo in the newspaper - she had never seen Benjamin look so grave. She


    had seen Benjamin serious before, but it was always in everyday situations. At that time, he was just a


    real, shameless man.


    But here he was, dressed to the nines and standing in court.


    He was so sexy that Madelyn''s legs nearly buckled!


    She remembered what Benjamin had said: "Ms. Green, who knows which of us will get the upper hand


    and enjoy the beauty?


    Looking at this photo, Madelyn couldn''t help but agree with him.


    She hated herself for being so worthless!


    "What are you staring at?"


    Penelope leaned over to take a look. "He looks pretty good," she smirked suggestively, "So, Madelyn,


    is he any good in bed?"


    Penelope was known for her carefree attitude towards love and marriage.


    "Please stop, Penelope." Madelyn pleaded, hoping she would drop the subject.


    Penelope knew their current situation and did not further probe it.


    "Tonight, we have an important dinner appointment with Lincoln Scott and his wife," she added, "Our


    goal is to secure his investment, and winning over Mrs. Scott is the key."


    Madelyn knew exactly what to do.


    Mr. Scott was in his 30s. Naturally, Mrs. Scott disliked alluring women. So Madelyn had carefully


    chosen her attire and tied her chestnut hair in an elegant bun to show her confidence and


    sophistication.


    She and Penelope drove to the event together, knowing that they would be drinkingter, so one of


    them had to stay sober to drive them back.


    As soon as they arrived at the business club, they found the Scott family.


    Mr. Scott was easygoing, Mrs. Scott was approachable, and even their daughter was adorable.


    Madelyn finally felt more at ease.


    Throughout the dinner, Penelope and Lincoln discussed their exciting future ns in great detail while


    Madelyn took care of Mrs. Scott and their child.


    Mrs. Scott was immediately captivated by Madelyn''s charisma and wit, and after the delightful chat, she


    decided to entrust her daughter''s piano lessons to this talented teacher.


    With the contract signed, Penelope was so excited to raise a toast to Lincoln and his wife, "Thank you


    so much, Mr. Scott! I''m so grateful to have met such a benefactor like you when we started our first


    business."


    Penelope excitedly gulped her wine.


    Lincoln patted Penelope''s shoulder and grinned.


    "Actually, there is another benefactor!"


    "Who?" Madelyn wondered.


    Mrs. Scott spoke softly, "Besides Lincoln, there''s someone else who''s been eager to partner with Ms.


    Green but was afraid you might refuse him."


    Then Madelyn had a feeling she knew who it was.


    Although she couldn''t help her slight change of expression, she realized that now wasn''t the time to get


    upset.


    Just then, the private room door opened.


    Daniel strode into the room, dressed in a ssic ck and white suit, looking handsome and sharp.


    His eyes honed in on Madelyn.


    "Madelyn!" he stated firmly.


    Despite the sudden attention, Madelyn remainedposed, holding tight to her wine ss. With an


    effort, she forced a smile and replied evenly, "Ah, Mr. Campbell, I see."


    Penelope was afraid Madelyn would lose herposure.


    Madelyn gently held Penelope''s hand, silently conveying that everything would be alright.


    She then turned to Lincoln and his wife and said politely, "If you''ll excuse us, I need to speak with Mr.


    Campbell about some private matters. Penelope will take care of you."


    Lincoln appeared ufortable, fidgeting nervously. After all, he did something wrong.


    Madelyn led the way out of the room, followed quickly by Daniel, a hint of amusement ying around


    the corners of his mouth.


    "Madelyn!"


    His voice was urgent. "I only wanted topensate you for the pain I caused you. Please don''t reject


    my kindness."


    Daniel''s tone was soft and gentle.


    Since he realized what he had lost, he started to treat Madelyn differently.


    He wanted to give her the best, but he wasn''t sure whether she still wanted it or not.


    Madelyn stopped and turned.


    They locked eyes in the hallway.


    She knew that he might have developed feelings for her now, but it was toote. After all the hurt he


    had caused, his attempted affection seemed meaningless.


    She remained calm andposed.


    "Daniel, we have already broken up," she said coolly.


    "Eloise rk is beautiful and adorable. You should seize the opportunity to cherish her."


    "Please don''t do anything that will embarrass us both again."


    ...


    Daniel''s hand gently rested in his pocket.


    "Madelyn," he chuckled softly, "do you still think that Benjamin rk would marry you?"


    Madelyn felt a pang in her heart.


    She pursed her lips and replied defensively, "That has nothing to do with Benjamin!"


    "Nothing?"


    Daniel taunted her, taking a step closer until he had her backed up against the wall.


    He remained calm and collected, and when Madelyn least expected it, he lunged forward and trapped


    her between himself and the wall.


    It was as if he was holding her in his embrace.


    Madelyn pushed against Daniel''s chest, trying to free herself from his grasp.


    "Campbell! What is wrong with you?"

 Chapter 134 A Fair Exchange

    Chapter 134 A Fair Exchange


    Chapter 134 A Fair Exchange


    Daniel remained unmoved, his muscles tense like stone.


    His gaze was piercing.


    "I''m not crazy!" he stated firmly, locking his gaze onto hers. "It''s all my fault! Let''s start over, Madelyn.


    This time, I''ll treat you better!"


    Despite her rtionship with Benjamin, he was still determined to win her back.


    Madelyn was stunned.


    When she finally came to her senses, Daniel had already seized her face, poised to kiss her


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    passionately.


    She turned her head away, denying him his advances.


    His lips still grazed her delicate cheek, leaving a slight trace of moisture.


    Madelyn fiercely pushed him away, her breathsing in short gasps.


    With a scowl, she wanted to make it crystal clear that she had no interest in his investments or


    Between them, there was no need for any further connection!


    Not far away, Benjamin stood smoking.


    His deep gaze was fixed on them, cold as if watching an unrted love affair unfold before him.


    Madelyn''s legs suddenly gave out, and she had to steady herself against the wall to avoid copsing


    onto the ground.


    Daniel also saw noticed Benjamin''s presence.


    His voice grew hoarse, "Madelyn, as soon as you say the word, I''ll break off the engagement now, I''ll


    marry you, and we''ll have a few children together."


    His proposal was tempting, but it wasn''t what Madelyn truly desired.


    The one she longed for was gazing at her with cold eyes.


    She looked helplessly at Benjamin...


    With that, Daniel felt an icy chill run through his body.


    Before today, there might have been a glimmer of hope, but now it was clear that he had lost Madelyn


    forever.


    It was a fierce battle between three people, but ultimately it was a world of just two.


    He Daniel Campbell was merely an outsider, unable to win Madelyn''s heart. She only saw Benjamin


    rk!


    Daniel retreated.


    As he passed by Benjamin, he heard the cold voice of the naturally superior man.


    "Daniel Campbell, I don''t like other people touching my things!" He announced.


    Daniel was stunned.


    He had dealt with him for a long time but never thought he would act like this. Benjamin usually had


    little interest in anything, especially in women! This was the first time he showed his possessiveness!


    But now, Daniel couldn''t help but wonder if he had misjudged Benjamin all this time.


    Perhaps, in the future, Benjamin would be willing to enter into a marriage.


    All because of one person, Madelyn.


    And it was Madelyn who had made him crave and desire for the sanctity of marriage.


    ...


    Madelyn got into Benjamin''s car.


    She immediately smelled the alcohol on his body, realizing that he had attended a congrattory


    banquet that evening, but he unexpectedly caught her "love affair".


    For some reason, Madelyn didn''t want to sour their rtionship.


    So she whispered, "The music studio is raising funds, and he asked someone to sign an intention


    contract with us. Actually, I didn''t know it was him."


    But Benjamin remained silent.


    He lit a cigarette and slowly smoked it...


    Once he had finished, he turned to look at her.


    "Why bother exining?" he said.


    "After all, we''re just in a physical rtionship, aren''t we?"


    ...


    Heard that, Madelyn''s eyes turned red, and she lowered her head without a word.


    She had learned early on that Benjamin''s temper was unpredictable, and it was never wise to argue


    with him.


    Benjamin stared at her for a long time.


    Abruptly, he announced, "I want toe over to your ce!"


    Madelyn was taken aback, wondering if she had correctly interpreted his intentions - did he want to go


    to her apartment and be intimate with her? Such aggressive behavior hinted at some kind of pent-up


    frustration.


    Madelyn turned her head slightly and gazed out of the car window, lost in thought for a moment.


    Eventually, she softly murmured, "Mmm," seemingly agreeing to his proposal.


    Benjamin lightly pressed on the elerator, the car speeding forward.


    They quickly came to a halt outside Madelyn''s apartment.


    ...


    Madelyn led him inside, feeling a sense of unease.


    "What can I get you to drink?" she inquired.


    However, before she could even get a response, Benjamin forcefully pushed her down onto the sofa.


    Her chestnut tresses spread out messily on the light-colored sofa, creating a striking visual image. And


    her solitary dwelling heightened the intensity of the situation.


    Benjamin was anything but gentle as he took what he wanted from Madelyn.


    She writhed beneath him, the sensations overwhelming.


    Do not know how long, but the sound of Madelyn''s phone pierced through the silence.


    Her hands were upied and she was unable to answer. But as the phone continued to ring


    incessantly, Benjamin picked it up to see who was calling.


    It was Daniel Campbell!


    Without hesitation, Benjamin pressed the speaker button and continued the intimacy.


    "Madelyn!"


    "Madelyn..."


    ...


    Benjamin''s intense eyes locked onto Madelyn.


    She bit her lip and her small nose flushed with desire...


    And he had utterly dominated her.


    As ambiguous noises emanated from the phone, Daniel could only listen on in stunned silence, his


    body frozen with shock.


    Eventually, he dropped his phone!


    ...


    Late at night, Madelyn was huddled beneath a nket, her expression wooden.


    Across from her sat a sleek and well-dressed Benjamin, cigarette in hand.


    "I''ll send you to Ennd for further studies," he muttered. "I''ll fly over to apany you in half a


    month."


    "I will invest in the music studio and hire the professionals to manage it for you," he added, sensing her


    hesitation.


    ...


    Madelyn slowly lifted her eyes, revealing a paleplexion and reddened corners that betrayed the


    turmoil raging within her.


    She had been driven to the brink of madness by him, and now she feared being tossed and turned like


    a puppet on a string.


    Her body ached, but it was the gnawing exhaustion that chipped away at her soul.


    A favor every half a month, a little slice of his attention, and she would be his mistress.


    She asked him softly, "Benjamin rk, am I just a kept mistress, subject to your every whim? When


    you''re unhappy, you can just send me overseas."


    Her questioning stirred no response.


    A meeting with Daniel Campbell, like what happened tonight? No! He couldn''t allow it!


    He stubbed out his cigarette.


    "It doesn''t matter! What matters is that you have to leave Gredax."


    Madelyn smiled.


    She had already left Daniel for a long time, their idental encounter in the evening meaning nothing.


    She had rejected Daniel.


    She had never given him any hope, both because she no longer loved him and because she wanted to


    make Eloise at ease.


    But what about Benjamin rk?


    He was in a murky rtionship with Eleanor Bet. But he couldn''t ept her past.


    She lowered her head in front of him, allowing him to do anything he pleased at her home. But now he


    pulled up his pants, ready to send her away as his mistress!


    To hell with Benjamin rk!


    Now she didn''t want him, or anything else for that matter!


    Madelyn pulled back the nket without a care for her disheveled state and proceeded to dress slowly.


    Once fully clothed, she looked up at him calmly and said, "I''m not going anywhere."


    Benjamin gathered her response.


    He sneered, "Did you forget that your father''s case hasn''t been settled yet?"


    Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a document and tossed it at Madelyn.


    As soon as her eyes fell on the receipt, Madelyn went pale.


    The document bore her father''s signature and held the power to destroy him.


    Benjamin remained cold, "It took me a lot of effort to obtain this evidence, Madelyn. What do you think


    will happen if it is found by the authorities? Would your father still be able to enjoy a peaceful life?"


    The rage building within Madelyn made her body tremble with fury.


    She had never imagined that Benjamin would resort to such dirty tactics.


    But then, a lightugh escaped her lips.


    When she lifted her head, she gritted her teeth and spoke, "Benjamin rk, I''ve been sleeping with you


    for so long, I don''t believe that no feeling develops between us!"


    She locked eyes with him. "But listen carefully, as soon as my father is thrown in jail, I''ll go and sleep


    with Daniel. And when I do, what will happen to your innocent little sister?"


    She added, "My father''s life and your sister''s life are equally important!"


    Her heart ached as she spoke these words.


    She pressed on, "So let''s do a ''fair'' exchange, Benjamin rk, a life for a life!"

    Chapter 135 She Was Also Hurting


    After finishing her speech, Madelyn clutched her chest lightly.


    The pain was so intense that she wondered if she could even breathe.


    She never imagined that they would end up like this.


    Benjamin fixed his intense gaze on her, his eyes filled with a touch of anger and sadness unlike


    anything Madelyn had seen before.


    She even had the feeling that he might p her at any moment.


    But, to her surprise, he refrained from doing so.


    Meanwhile, Benjamin looked at her and chuckled softly. "I remember you gave Eloise a talisman to


    bless her. And now you want her dead?"


    Madelynughed and nced at Benjamin. "Mr. rk, if you go easy on my father and me, I can


    ensure that everyone stays safe and happy."


    Benjamin chuckled along, his Adam''s apple bobbing up and down. "Well, well. You truly are something,


    Madelyn Green. No wonder both Daniel Campbell and David James fell for you."


    He then lightly pinched her sharp and pretty chin.


    Leaning in, his voiceced with danger, "I didn''t realize that you were all thorns, Madelyn Green.


    Perhaps I should pluck them for you."


    Madelyn''s eyes were teary, and her nose was red.


    She knew that Benjamin hadpromised...


    Her body suddenly went limp and she felt a stabbing pain in her stomach. She didn''t know where it was


    Despite the agony, Madelyn struggled to keep up appearances, her face turning ashen as she fought to


    hide her pain.


    "Please, Mr. rk, leave now," she muttered, her voice strained.


    It was over...


    Her rtionship with Benjamin hade to a bitter end.


    Benjamin rose from his seat with a determined stride, and it was obvious he was determined to end


    things for good.


    The tea table still bore the evidence of Samuel Green''s "guilt", and he left it to her.


    Benjamin walked towards the door with purpose.


    But before he left, he hesitated - a rare moment of indecisiveness for such a typically cold and


    calcted man.


    He yearned to ask Madelyn one more time if she truly intended to leave him.


    But as he turned around, his heart sank at the sight of her copsed beside the tea table. Her delicate


    body was curled up and her face was drained of color, leaving Benjamin to realize the damage he had


    caused.


    "Madelyn!" he cried out, rushing over to cradle her in his arms.


    "Madelyn, what happened? Let me take you to the hospital," he urgently offered.


    Without uttering a word, Madelyn allowed him to lift her up and carry her to the car.


    Every inch of her body was wracked with unbearable pain, her lower abdomen burning as though set


    aze.


    She could hardly keep herself upright, and even lying down felt like a torturous ordeal.


    Madelyn had a hunch that her pain was rted to their earlier tryst - her body had been unprepared for


    Benjamin''s insatiable lust.


    "Ben..." she murmured, her voice strained and barely above a whisper.


    "It hurts so much!" She leaned heavily against him, momentarily forgetting their earlier argument.


    At that moment, Madelyn found sce in hisforting embrace.


    Benjamin was, after all, a man with a duty to protect their loved one.


    Despite their fight, he couldn''t bear to leave her in such a painful, excruciating state.


    He carried her into the car and handed her a cup of water.


    "Here, drink some water. It''s hot," he urged.


    Madelyn attempted to twist off the cap, but it was too tight.


    Without further thought, Benjamin reached out and effortlessly unscrewed the cap for her.


    He knew that they needed to get to the hospital right away. So he drove straight to the nearest medical


    center, not bothering to call anyone he knew.


    And though Madelyn felt slightly relieved after drinking some water, she was still suffering.


    Her lower abdomen was swollen and heavy, and her difort was evident.


    Madelyn slumped back into the chair, her face pale.


    "Ben...thank you." She murmured softly.


    "Don''t say a word. I''ll take you to the hospital," Benjamin interrupted in a surprisingly gentle voice.


    It was a rare asion for him to be so tender, especially considering the intense argument they''d just


    had. They were even on the verge of calling it quits.


    Madelyn''s heart softened.


    She knew they were both irrational in the heat of the moment.


    Deep down, she trusted that he would never cause any harm to her father. The "fair" exchange was


    just a meaningless threat.


    Madelyn attempted to say something, but the excruciating pain made it impossible.


    As she drifted in and out of consciousness, she reminded herself to have a conversation once she felt


    better.


    Half an hourter, the Bentley Continental drew up to the hospital.


    Benjamin carried Madelyn Green out of the car and hurried to the emergency room.


    "Are you feeling better?" he asked.


    Madelyn weakly nodded, then shook her head in pain...


    Without wasting another moment, Benjamin quickened his pace and soon arrived at the emergency


    room registration desk.


    The nurse asked which department they needed.


    Madelyn''s lips quivered as she whispered, "Gynecology..."


    A dark cloud of worry formed in Benjamin''s eyes. Had he been too rough during their night of passion,


    leading to her injury?


    He nced at Madelyn.


    Immediately, she averted her gaze, casting a veil of awkward silence over them.


    Benjamin registered on her behalf and helped her take a seat on a nearby bench. Luckily, there was


    only one patient waiting ahead of them.


    Madelyn struggled to findfort, her small face turning pale with difort.


    Benjamin sensed her distress and gently turned her head towards him.


    Meeting her tearful gaze, he softened his tone.


    "Rest your head on my shoulder," he said, his voice low and reassuring. "We''ll be there soon."


    Madelyn''s slender throat tensed up.


    Just as she was about to rest her head on his shoulder, a gentle voice interrupted them.


    "Ben!" It called, drawing their attention toward the source.


    Benjamin was surprised to see William Bet and Constance Carson standing before him, their faces


    etched with worry.


    William appeared haggard, and Constance''s eyes were slightly swollen, as though she had been crying


    for hours.


    Benjamin supported Madelyn, unable to stand up. "Mr. Bet, Mrs. Bet," he greeted them with a


    nod.


    William''s gaze fixed on Madelyn, noticing her difort.


    After a moment of hesitation, he spoke up. "Ms. Green, are you not feeling well?"


    Benjamin knew better than to share his quarrels with Madelyn with outsiders. He replied cautiously,


    "Yes, she is feeling a little unwell."


    Constance shot a quick nce at her husband, silently signaling to him.


    William grasped her message.


    He hesitated for a moment before speaking reluctantly. "Ben, we didn''t mean to bother you. We didn''t


    want to run into you here...Eleanor was not good. Could you try to talk to her and lift her spirits?"


    As soon as her husband finished speaking, Constance buried her face in her hands and sobbed


    uncontrobly.


    "Ben, we never meant to burden you like this," she choked out. "But the truth is... Eleanor''s fianc¨¦


    wants to call off their engagement, and she''s taken ten sleeping pills...We don''t know what else to do.


    Please, Ben, we''re begging you. Eleanor is our only daughter!"


    Then, turning to Madelyn, she pleaded, "Ms. Green, William has told me you''re a kind and wise


    woman. Surely, you wouldn''t let someone suffer needlessly. Eleanor''s condition is dire, please, won''t


    you help us?"


    Madelyn listened in stunned silence.


    Eleanor had overdosed on pills...


    As a kind and sensible person, she, Madelyn Green, should help.


    But she noticed that Benjamin''s fingers wrap around hers, his grip tight and unyielding. He was fighting


    a battle within himself!


    He, too, was desperate to visit Eleanor his first love and was weighed down by worry!


    Madelyn was deste.


    Well, her pain may have seemed insignificant inparison to the losses of Eleanor...


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    She tried her best to muster a small smile and gazed up at Benjamin.


    She wanted him to make his own decision.


    Their eyes met.


    Benjamin gently touched her hair and then his voice became hoarse, "I''ll go and check on Eleanor, but


    I promise to be back with you as quickly as I can. Please wait for me here, my love..."


    Madelyn almost suffocated.


    She endured the pain and quietly looked at him, whispering, "Ben, I am hurting too."


    Eleanor boomeranged, after all.


    The pain coursing through Madelyn''s body was all because of Benjamin. How could he leave her here


    and go see Eleanor? How could he do this to her?


    Benjamin frowned, "I''ll go check on her ande right back to you. It won''t take long," he promised.


    Madelyn knew he was ming her for being childish.


    Even Constance''s usually friendly tone turned hostile, "Ms. Green, Ben and Eleanor have been broken


    up years ago and now they''re just friends. You have nothing to worry about."

 Chapter 136 She Had Surgery Alone

    Chapter 136 She Had Surgery Alone


    Chapter 136 She Had Surgery Alone


    Madelyn closed her eyes quietly.


    There was another surge of pain in her lower abdomen.


    Amid the pain, she seemed to hear something break.


    After the event, she thought that was the breaking sound of her sincere heart.


    She sat up straight.


    Her eyes were nk but firm...


    She heard herself saying, "Benjamin, you can go."


    Eleanor''s parents were grateful and apologized, saying that she was generous.


    Benjamin rose and took off his coat, putting it on her shoulders.


    When the warm coat covered Madelyn, she abruptly brushed it away. She was disgusted.


    Benjamin was startled.


    Madelyn said softly, "I don''t need it."


    He chose to stay with Eleanor and only left a coat to her. What did he mean?


    Benjamin was bad-tempered. Now that Madelyn embarrassed him in front of the outsiders, he was


    annoyed and said sulkily, "I''ll drive you backter."


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Madelyn didn''t say a word.


    At this moment, it was her turn to see the doctor.


    When she got to her feet, she didn''t look at Benjamin. Her pride didn''t allow her to beg him to stay.


    There were many men in the world, and perhaps none of them was superior to him. So what?


    What a woman needed was a man who would put her before anything else.


    Outstanding as Benjamin was, he always thought of the other woman.


    What was the point of having such a man?


    Madelyn endured the pain and walked toward the consulting room slowly.


    Benjamin stood there with a sullen face.


    Constance urged him in a soft voice, "Benjamin, let''s go see Eleanor now."


    William hesitated.


    In the end, he led Benjamin to the VIP ward.


    ...


    In the emergency room.


    When the female gynecologist saw Madelyn in pain, she looked behind thetter. "Where''s your man?"


    Madelyn was bitterly embarrassed.


    Shey down on the examining table with misty eyes. "He''s busy."


    The gynecologist was experienced and knew what was going on. She couldn''t help saying, "Why


    wasn''t he busy when he had fun?"


    After that, she examined Madelyn.


    "It hurts..."


    The gynecologist pressed on her belly a few times, and Madelyn was convulsed in the pain.


    She had never experienced such pain before.


    The middle-aged gynecologist narrowed her eyes.


    She nced at Madelyn and pulled down her clothes, going outside and saying to a nurse. "Get ready


    for surgery. It''s abdominal negative pressure caused by sexual intercourse. The patient is in critical


    condition."


    Madelyn''s mind went nk.


    The gynecologist swiftly filled out the surgery form and med her. "If you hadete, you might


    have died. It''s a small surgery, and you can leave after that, but you need someone to stay with you.


    Do you have any friends here?"


    Madelyn rubbed her lower abdomen lightly.


    There was a surge of pain...


    She looked up at the ceiling and said in a soft voice, "I''ll ask my friend toe."


    The gynecologist gazed at her with pity.


    What a pretty girl! But she was maltreated by a jerk, who didn''t look after her after hurting her like this.


    Madelyn called Vivian with trembling hands.


    When Vivian knew what happened, she put on her clothes and cursed, "What''s wrong with Benjamin?


    He''s a jackass!"


    ...


    Madelyn signed her name and had the surgery.


    It was a small surgery, but it hurt a lot.


    She tried to stifle the pain and clutched tightly at the white sheets. Amid the pain, she seemed to hear


    Benjamin whispering in her ear, "Do you like it? Madelyn, I like it a lot."


    Madelyn turned away her face.


    All of a sudden, tears rolled down her cheeks.


    When Vivian arrived, the surgery was over.


    Madelyn''s face was as white as a sheet. She could hardly stand on her own, looking so fragile that it


    seemed she could be carried away by the wind at any time.


    The pain and the embarrassment were far stronger than the passion Benjamin brought her.


    Vivian cried at the sight of Madelyn.


    "Where''s the bastard? He can''t be meeting his old lover, can he?"


    Madelyn gave a vague smile.


    Vivian guessed it right. Benjamin did leave her behind and go to visit Eleanor.


    He told her he would just take a look at Eleanor, but it had been an hour, and he hadn''te back.


    Madelyn didn''t care about that anymore.


    She would have nothing to do with him from now on.


    She wouldn''t hold any hopes for him. She didn''t care if he loved or hated Eleanor.


    After Vivian got the medicines for her, she held Madelyn''s arm and turned to leave.


    ...


    On the ground floor of the hospital.


    They were destined to run across each other.


    Madelyn saw Eleanor and her family as well as Benjamin.


    William and his wife supported Eleanor on both sides, followed by Benjamin, who carried a bag of


    medicines.


    He looked natural as if he was Eleanor''s husband.


    Eleanor wore a delighted expression.


    She said sweetly with rosy cheeks, "Benjamin, you don''t have toe to see me. How could you leave


    Ms. Green alone? She might get angry with you."


    Madelyn didn''t hear what Benjamin said.


    However, she was disgusted by what she saw, so she said in a soft voice, "Vivian, let''s go."


    "Why should we go?" Vivian was hot-tempered.


    She left Madelyn quietly and went up to the family.


    Vivian''s voice was shrill.


    "Mr. rk, you''re so busy!"


    "You hurt Madelyn. She took the surgery alone, and you had the mood to visit your old lover. Benjamin,


    you opened my eye. You''re the worst jerk I''ve ever met. You''re far worse than Jackson."


    Benjamin frowned.


    He ignored Vivian and looked at Madelyn behind her.


    Madelyn propped herself against the wall with an ashen face.


    Her lips were pale. She seemed to fall at any time.


    Benjamin gave the bag to William and went up to support Madelyn. Vivian''s eyes were red.


    But Madelyn pushed him away quietly.


    She didn''t want him to get near her. She was rejecting him.


    Madelyn took a deep breath and said, "Benjamin, we''re done. When you chose to see Eleanor, we''re


    finishedpletely. I''d be grateful to you if you continue to be my dad''swyer. If you are not willing to


    do that, I''ll have to ask Daniel for help. I think he will help me."


    It almost exhausted all her strength to say these words.


    Benjamin subconsciously reached out to hold her.


    "I didn''t know you would have surgery. Otherwise, I wouldn''t have left."


    Madelyn didn''t refute it.


    She stood there and thought for a good while before tilting her head and saying, "Benjamin, I liked you,


    but I''m not sure of it now. I''m only an ordinary girl, and I feel inferior to you. I can''tply with your


    rules and tolerate your condescendence."


    "Let''s end it here."


    "Let''s part neatly."


    ...


    After Madelyn spoke, she gave him a faint smile, which looked like the morning dews in the flower that


    bloomed on the cliff.


    Her smile broke Benjamin''s heart.


    Madelyn turned around and walked away with the help of Vivian.


    Benjamin grabbed her arm forcefully and said with a tense voice, "Madelyn..."


    "Let go of me."


    "Benjamin, we have nothing to do with each other now."


    "I won''t have any feelings for you. You and Eleanor can rest assured."

 Chapter 137 I Wish You Happiness

    Chapter 137 I Wish You Happiness


    Chapter 137 I Wish You Happiness


    After Madelyn spoke, she quietly shook off Benjamin''s hand.


    "Vivian, let''s go."


    Vivian was sad and angry.


    She raised her middle finger at Benjamin and cursed, "Son of bitch, I hope you won''t have any


    children."


    Madelyn lowered her eyes.


    "Vivian, stop it. Let me part with Mr. rk peacefully."


    Vivian knew that Madelyn swallowed her anger and tolerated everything because of Samuel.


    She thought she could tolerate it since Madelyn was able to do that.


    Vivian said in a choked voice, "Okay, let''s go home."


    ...


    But Benjamin again grabbed Madelyn''s hand.


    This time, Madelyn shook him off forcefully.


    ...


    "Ms. Green."


    William went up to Madelyn and apologized sincerely, "Ms. Green, Eleanor is young and spoiled. My


    wife and I didn''t consider your feelings. I apologize to you. I hope you can give Benjamin a chance to


    exin for my sake."


    Madelyn gave a faint smile.


    She was aching all over, but she had to argue with these people here.


    No one cared about her except Vivian.


    Madelyn turned around and gazed at William.


    "Mr. Bet, you did nothing wrong."


    "Eleanor is your daughter, and there is nothing wrong that you and your wife care more about her."


    "As for Ms. Bet, it''s not her fault to court the man she loves."


    ...


    Madelyn took a deep breath.


    She nced at everyone and said slowly, "I''m only an acquaintance of Mr. rk. I wish Ms. Bet


    and him happiness for the rest of their life."


    William paused.


    He didn''t expect the girl in front of him to be so resolute. She reminded him of Madeline.


    When he bickered with Madeline because of a misunderstanding, Madeline broke up with him


    resolutely with red eyes.


    He said inwardly, "Madeline..."


    "Where are you?"


    "If you gave birth to a girl, would she be abused and bullied like Ms. Green?"


    William was a kind man.


    Thinking of his lost daughter, he was almost moved to tears. He wanted to say something nice to


    However, Madelyn turned to leave.


    Although it hurt a lot, she straightened up.


    She was bitterly embarrassed, and she didn''t want to be ridiculed.


    Vivian used all her strength to support Madelyn and said in a sobbing voice, "Madelyn, don''t be so


    stubborn. If you want to cry, just cry. We can''t avoid meeting jerks in our life. If a jerk hurt you, just fight


    back. Don''t upset yourself."


    Madelyn paused.


    She said quietly, "I''ll forget about him and start afresh."


    Vivian was startled.


    Benjamin followed them and happened to hear that.


    A trace of confusion came across his mature and handsome face.


    Madelyn said she would forget about him.


    Would she really do that?


    After she broke up with him, would she treat him as a stranger and calmly introduce him to her new


    boyfriend like what she did to Daniel?


    Many images shed across Benjamin''s mind.


    Madelyn''s face when they first met.


    She pretended to be experienced in the car out of the golf course although she was a green hand.


    The look on her face when she yed piano in the restaurant.


    He was drawn to her.


    Bits and pieces of the past raced through his mind. They made out in every corner of the apartment. He


    liked to bite her ear and call her morning dew when she was dazed by the passion.


    Madelyn was his first woman in a real sense.


    Benjamin regretted it.


    He rarely regretted it in his rtionships.


    He broke up with Eleanor resolutely back then and had never regretted it over the years.


    They grew up together, and Eleanor was a childhood friend.


    Perhaps he treated her well because of William.


    However, he had never regretted it, nor had he reflected that Eleanor wouldn''t have chosen the other


    man if he had spent more time with her.


    Today, he hurt Madelyn.


    He was regretful. He wanted to make it up to her. He didn''t want to part with her.


    They shouldn''t break up like this...


    Benjamin held the car door and looked at Madelyn. "Let me drive you home."


    Madelyn sat in the car.


    She said calmly, "Benjamin, let''s break uppletely."


    Her voice was soft. "Mr. rk, I''m different from you. I don''t like to linger in a wrong rtionship, nor do


    I like to stay in touch with my ex-boyfriend."


    Benjamin frowned.


    He wanted to exin.


    Suddenly, Madelyn''s eyes turned red, and she stared at him. "Benjamin, it hurts a lot. Can you let me


    go?"


    He paused.


    Madelyn shut the door hard.


    Bang! Benjamin''s finger was pinched by the door.


    It was bruised instantly.


    Benjamin subconsciously took a step back. Vivian drove away and cursed, "Son of bitch."


    ...


    Through the car window.


    Benjamin saw Madelyn crying. He wondered if it was because of the pain or him.


    Eleanor came over.


    "Benjamin, your hand..."


    "What got into Ms. Green? How could she do this to you?"


    "Benjamin, I''ll take you to the doctor."


    ...


    Hearing Eleanor say with concern, Benjamin was irritated.


    He pushed Eleanor away.


    "Get lost!"


    Eleanor was startled.


    She raised her eyes slowly and looked at the man in front of her. She had never seen him so


    desperate. He looked like a man whose wife cheated on him. No, worse than that.


    Eleanor''s heart trembled.


    Did Benjamin really fall in love with Madelyn?


    ...


    Benjamin got in the car swiftly.


    He drove fast and almost arrived at Madelyn''s apartment building at the same time as Vivian.


    When Madelyn got out of the car, she didn''t look at him as if he was an irrelevant passerby.


    Benjamin''s heart sank.


    "Madelyn."


    Vivian supported Madelyn and tossed two pieces of paper at Benjamin.


    "Here are Madelyn''s diagnosis and surgery agreement. Take a look at them."


    "Where were you when Madelyn was in great pain?"


    "Son of bitch, you don''t deserve Madelyn or her love. You should stay with Eleanor forever so that


    neither of you can hurt other people."


    ...


    Vivian took out her anger on Benjamin.


    She helped Madelyn upstairs.


    After a while, the light in the apartment was on.


    Benjamin leaned against the golden Bentley and read carefully Madelyn''s diagnosis and surgery


    agreement in the moonlight. The mass of words suffocated him.


    He had hurt Madelyn.


    He left her alone in the operating room.


    Benjamin recalled that when he had sex with Madelyn for the first time, she shed tears at the pain and


    wetted the sheet.


    Madelyn was afraid of pain.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Benjamin didn''t get in the car. He leaned against the car door and smoked the cigarette slowly.


    He stood through the night.


    When it dawned, Vivian went out to buy breakfast. When she went past the golden Bentley, she didn''t


    forget to spit at it.


    She cursed, "Son of bitch!"


    Benjamin ignored her.


    Right after Vivian left, he got out of the car and went to Madelyn''s apartment, pressing the doorbell.


    Madelyn thought it was Vivian, so she endured the pain and opened the door.


    To her surprise, it was Benjamin.


    He was carrying several tonics and two bags of breakfast, which was her favorite.


    Madelyn didn''t let him in.


    She said uninterestedly, "Benjamin, indeed, I don''t feel well, but it''s not a miscarriage. You don''t have to


    do this."


    Besides, her heart was broken.


    It was useless doing these for her now.

 Chapter 138 Youre Shameless

    Chapter 138 You''re Shameless


    Chapter 138 You''re Shameless


    Madelyn''s face was pale.


    Benjamin reached out to touch her face, and Madelyn subconsciously took a step back.


    In the end, he withdrew his hand.


    "No matter what, your health has been impaired."


    "Madelyn, I''m worried about you."


    "Let me take care of you."


    ...


    Madelyn listened to Benjamin quietly.


    She looked at him expressionlessly. "Mr. rk, do I have to be blunt with you? I know you like me, but


    your affection is not strong enough. Whenever something happens to Eleanor, you go to see her


    without any demure. You didn''t care if I felt sad ory on the operating table."


    As Madelyn spoke, she felt a great pang in her heart.


    However, she managed to smile at him.


    "Mr. rk, I can''t afford to love you."


    Benjamin got near her.


    He gently held her head and tried to kiss her, intending to win her back


    At least, she would recall their past affection.


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    She froze in his tender embrace, numb with the sharp pain in her heart.


    She somehow managed to push him away.


    "Benjamin, how can you be so shameless?"


    "Do you think I''m a pet at your beck and call? If you want to have a sex partner, you can easily find a


    group of women considering your wealth and appearance. You don''t have to pester me."


    Benjamin''s eyes darkened.


    He said, "Do you think I only want to sleep with you?"


    Madelyn asked with trembling lips, "What else do you want? To marry me?"


    Benjamin panted heavily.


    He clenched his fists. After struggling inside for a good while, he said wearily, "Madelyn, I don''t n to


    get married. It''s not that I want to y with your affection. I don''t n to marry anyone in my life."


    Madelyn lowered her eyes.


    She gave a faint smile and said, "Don''t worry. I don''t n to interfere with your life."


    After she spoke, she was about to close the door.


    Benjamin stopped her.


    He frowned slightly and said, "In my eyes, you''re more important than Eleanor."


    Madelyn raised her eyes and stared at him unblinkingly.


    There was surprise and anger in her eyes.


    As if hearing the most hrious joke of the century, she repeated softly, "I''m more important than


    Eleanor?"


    Benjamin wore an earnest expression.


    Madelyn gave a faint smile and said, "I remember that you''re handling an economic dispute for


    Eleanor. Benjamin, since you said I was more important than her, I''ll ask you to give up her case."


    She smiled mockingly. "Can you do that?"


    Benjamin frowned.


    He didn''t mix his work with personal feelings. He wouldn''t allow any woman to tell him what to do or


    interfere with his work.


    He looked at her and said, "Can you change your request?"


    Madelyn stooped and picked up the tonics he brought, tossing them out the door.


    "I have another request to make. Get lost!"


    "Benjamin, don''t ever show up in front of me anymore. You''re disgusting."


    ...


    Madelyn closed the door.


    She leaned against the door and seemed to smell the scent of cigarettes of Benjamin.


    She used to enjoy snuggling in his arms.


    She liked to cling to his neck and smell his scent, which was mixed with cigarette and aftershave. She


    was enchanted by it.


    But now, she wanted to stay away from him.


    After a while, Vivian came back with a sullen face. It seemed that she had bickered with Benjamin


    outside.


    Madelyn came back to her senses.


    She said, "Don''t offend him because of me. Jackson does business with the rk family, after all."


    Vivian looked stubborn.


    In fact, her heart ached for Madelyn.


    Madelyn opened the breakfast container slowly and said in a soft voice, "Don''t worry. I''ll get over it."


    It would hurt.


    But it would be over one day.


    ...


    After Madelyn rested for a few days, she went back to work.


    She couldn''t ept the fund from Lincoln because of Daniel, so she apologized to Penelope.


    Penelope was philosophical about it.


    She patted Madelyn and said, "The globe is round. We can look for other investors. I invited several


    potential investors to dinner tonight. Madelyn, go with me."


    Madelyn was grateful to Penelope for her generosity.


    After chatting with Penelope, she called Mrs. Scott in person.


    "Mrs. Scott, I''m sorry I can''t work with Mr. Scott. But if Erica still wants to learn from me, I''ll try my best


    to teach her."


    Mrs. Scott had learned what happened from her husband.


    Including Daniel.


    Including Benjamin.


    She admired Madelyn a lot. She had thought Madelyn would get mad, but thetter remained polite


    and didn''t rely on men.


    Mrs. Scott instantly had a good opinion of Madelyn.


    She thought, "Ms. Green looks reliable. Although I can rely on my husband, I should have some


    investments."


    However, Mrs. Scott was smart. She had to see what Benjamin would do.


    If he would make the investment, she couldn''t snatch it from him.


    ...


    At eight o''clock in the evening.


    Madelyn went to have dinner with Penelope. She had just recovered from her sickness, so she couldn''t


    drink much.


    But she had gotten Penelope into big trouble. How could she let Penelope drink so much?


    Madelyn drank half a ss of wine in one gulp with a faint smile.


    When the strong wine went down into her stomach, she was sickened, but she remained smiling.


    "Great! Ms. Green is good at drinking."


    "Ms. Green is hospitable."


    "Pour more wine for Ms. Green."


    ...


    The atmosphere was cozy under the chandelier in the luxurious private room.


    Madelyn drank almost a bottle of red wine.


    Her face was unnaturally pale. Penelope saw that and said quietly, "Go to the bathroom. I''ll make an


    excuse for you to leaveter."


    Madelyn shook her head. "Let''s go together."


    Penelope sighed softly.


    She knew about Madelyn''s rtionship with Benjamin. If Madelyn was willing, she could get anything


    she liked.


    However, Madelyn didn''t want to be a mistress.


    Penelope felt Madelyn had missed a golden chance, but she admired thetter for that.


    She was experienced and good at creating a warm atmosphere. "Let Ms. Green take a break. I''ll drink


    with Mr. Hunter."


    Jonathan Hunter was the general manager of a high-end hotel.


    He met Madelyn before and knew she was Benjamin''s mistress.


    When the men in the room forced Madelyn to drink, he couldn''t stop them, so he sent a message to


    Benjamin and asked him what was going on.


    Madelyn ran to the bathroom.


    Her stomach was churning, but she couldn''t throw up.


    She ran the water and sshed it on her face forcefully. After that, she felt much better.


    However, she was drunk...


    When she saw the tall figure appearing in the bathroom, she didn''t know if it was real or a dream. She


    stared at him, her face turning red.


    Benjamin went up to her and washed his hands calmly.


    Madelyn didn''t say a word.


    She leaned against the cold tiled wall and looked at him weakly...


    Benjamin washed his hands slowly.


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    They remained silent for a long while. Madelyn finally knew it was real. They did run across each other.


    She didn''t say anything and turned to leave.


    Benjamin said quietly behind her, "Madelyn, is this the life you want?"

 Chapter 139 I Miss You

    Chapter 139 I Miss You


    Chapter 139 I Miss You


    Madelyn paused.


    She lowered her eyes and smiled. "Benjamin, we belong to different worlds. My life has nothing to do


    with you."


    If he thought she regretted it, he was wrong.


    Madelyn went back to the private room. The atmosphere was warm, but Jonathan nced at her


    meaningfully.


    Someone started to ask Madelyn to drink again.


    Penelope offered to drink with him.


    The man had a high social status and said arrogantly, "Ms. Waylon, everyone drinks when talking


    business. There is no difference between men and women at the table. Ms. Green looks delicate, but


    she drank boldly like a man just now."


    He handed Madelyn a goblet of red wine.


    "Ms. Green, if you drink this ss of wine, I''ll consider investing in yourpany."


    Penelope wanted to say something.


    But Madelyn pressed her hand quietly.


    She gave a faint smile. "Mr. Kingston, I''m ttered. Of course, I''ll drink the wine."


    She took the goblet of wine.


    When she was about to drink the wine, a big hand took her goblet quietly. Someone said casually, "I''ll


    drink the wine for Ms. Green."


    After he spoke, Benjamin gave a faint smile. "I wonder if I have the qualification."


    A dead silence fell upon everyone in the private room.


    No one had expected Benjamin toe and go against Mr. Kingston openly.


    He came to Madelyn''s rescue. It was a good show.


    Jonathan held a cigarette between his fingers and gave a meaningful smile. "Benjamin, don''t go too


    far."


    Benjamin turned to Madelyn and put his arms around her shoulders gently, ignoring her stiffness and


    rejection.


    He gave a faint smile and said, "Ie to pick up Ms. Green. When I saw her throw up in the


    bathroom, my heart was broken."


    As he spoke, he put down the goblet.


    "Mr. Kingston, what shall we do?"


    Mr. Kingston was usually arrogant, but he lost his voice now. No one came to his rescue.


    Benjamin looked sulky.


    Who dared to offend him at this moment?


    There was a long silence.


    Madelyn picked up the goblet of wine quietly and drank it up in one gulp.


    Following that, she smiled at Mr. Kingston and said, "Mr. Kingston, let''s be friends."


    Mr. Kingston was taken aback.


    His eyes soon turned red. He had offended Benjamin just now, but Madelyn helped him out


    surprisingly.


    He quickly got to his feet and poured himself a goblet of red wine.


    He drank three goblets of wine in a row.


    Following that, he said to Penelope, "Ms. Green is reliable. I''ll make the investment."


    Penelope was delighted, but she was worried about Madelyn.


    Evidently, Madelyn didn''t respect Benjamin. Mr. Kingston drank three goblets of wine, and she followed


    suit. When she got drunk, she thought perhaps she didn''t want to face Benjamin when she was sober.


    Madelyn covered her eyes and sat in the car.


    She felt a great pang in her heart.


    What did Benjamin want? Why did he show up in front of her?


    In her daze, she felt someonee to her side.


    It was Benjamin.


    Madelyn tilted her head and asked in a soft voice, "Why did Penelope bring me to your car? Benjamin,


    can you stop showing up? The sight of you upsets me."


    The wine made her bold enough to speak her mind.


    "Your deep affection reminds me of your disgusting face when you hugged Eleanor. Really..."


    Madelyn closed her eyes quietly.


    She had no strength to escape, and she couldn''t escape...


    Benjamin gazed at her pale face and felt a pain in his heart, but he endured it.


    She didn''t listen to him and drank with Mr. Kingston.


    He also endured it.


    Benjamin lifted the hair that covered her forehead and muttered softly, "Madelyn, I didn''t do anything


    with her. Give me one more chance. Didn''t we have a good time together?"


    Madelyn covered her eyes andughed.


    Her body trembled, and her chest heaved up and down. It was a tempting sight.


    "A good time?"


    "Yeah, we indeed had a good time."


    ...


    Madelyn leaned toward Benjamin and quietly undid one of his shirt buttons with her slender fingers.


    She did it slowly with charming eyes. Benjamin was turned on, swallowing hard.


    She was sensual.


    Madelyn moved her fingers on his sexy Adam''s apple and rubbed it slowly with parting red lips.


    Her voice was hoarse. "Benjamin, do you expect me to strip off and have sex with you?"


    "Are you going to pay me or the other way around?"


    "Let''s agree that neither of us can take advantage of each other."


    ...


    The passionate look on Benjamin''s handsome face vanished.


    He grabbed her hand coldly.


    "Enough!"


    "Do you think it''s enough?" Madelyn tried to anger him.


    "Benjamin, don''t youe to me for this? I''ll do it in the car with you, okay?"


    ...


    Benjamin buttoned up his shirt.


    He stared straight ahead and said, "Madelyn, you''re drunk."


    Madelyn leaned against the leather seat.


    She smiled quietly.


    Although she was drunk, she knew he was angry.


    She was amused.


    Madelyn closed her eyes and took off her high heels recklessly. "Drive me home."


    Benjamin tried to ignore her, but he couldn''t help turning to her. "Madelyn, you have been upsetting me


    for a long time, and you tried to embarrass me just now. I don''t believe you are not aware of it. You do


    this because you know I like you."


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    No one dared to challenge him except her.


    He could do nothing about her.


    Madelyn utteredzily, "Mr. rk, I''m ttered. Do you want me to sleep with you in return?"


    After she spoke, she closed her eyes.


    Evidently, she tried to enrage him.


    Although Benjamin wanted to make love to her, he didn''t want to do that at this moment. However, he


    missed her. Even her stinging words sounded so amiable.


    He leaned toward her and whispered in her ear, "Madelyn, I miss you."


    Madelyn didn''t respond.


    His confession didn''t work on her and faded in the air.


    Benjamin gritted his teeth and drove back to his apartment.


    When he got out of the car, he thought Madelyn would resist. To his surprise, she fell asleep. Perhaps


    she had drunk too much.


    Benjamin''s restless heart calmed down.


    He closed the car door and looked at her like a pervert.


    Benjamin hadn''t seen Madelyn for a few days, and she lost much weight. Her face was sharper, and


    her rosy lips parted slightly. It was a tempting sight.


    She was not aggressive when she fell asleep.


    Benjamin couldn''t resist the temptation.


    He leaned forward and kissed her softly.


    Madelyn was drunk. She tasted the familiar scent in her dream and couldn''t help holding his neck,


    kissing him passionately.


    However, her heart was broken even though she was drunk.


    As she kissed him, she realized something was wrong. She seemed to have broken up with Benjamin


    and cut all her ties with him. She said she wouldn''t stay with him anymore.


    Madelyn opened her eyes and gazed at his handsome face, reaching out to stroke it gently.


    Benjamin didn''t move.


    He let her touch his face.


    "Madelyn, I know you like me. I don''t believe you can forget about the good time we had together."


    Madelyn''s eyes got misty.


    She leaned against the seat and said in a hoarse voice.


    "Benjamin, why do I like you?"

 Chapter 140 Lets Hurt Each Other

    Chapter 140 Let''s Hurt Each Other


    Chapter 140 Let''s Hurt Each Other


    Benjamin gazed at Madelyn.


    She was drunk. There was undisguised pain in her eyes.


    His heart trembled.


    Did her love for him pain her so much?


    Benjamin rubbed her lips gently and said in a tender voice, "Let''s make up and stay together like


    before."


    Madelyn lowered her eyes, her long eyshes fluttering.


    "Benjamin, I don''t want you."


    Benjamin clenched his fists and then clenched even more tightly.


    He suddenly unfastened her seatbelt and carried her out of the car.


    The night wind blew at her face.


    Madelyn sobered up and found he parked the car outside his apartment building.


    "Benjamin, I want to go home."


    She started to struggle and wriggle in his arms, kicking her slender and fair legs blindly and not caring if


    she would hurt him.


    Benjamin let out a muffled grunt. She seemed to have turned him on.


    He couldn''t wait, so he pressed her against the wall in front of the elevator.


    His body pressed tightly against hers, and there was not a small gap between the two of them.


    Although Madelyn was drunk, she didn''t dare to move, knowing the man could easily be aroused at this


    moment.


    She said with red eyes, "Benjamin, are you going to use force on me?"


    Benjamin didn''t know what to do with her. He had never met such a stubborn girl.


    He thought of giving up on her these days.


    However, he had tasted her tenderness.


    He wanted to give up, but he couldn''t.


    "How can I do that?" He rubbed his prominent nose gently against hers and clung tightly to her,


    seducing her skillfully.


    He had made love to her many times and knew how to turn her on.


    Madelyn felt shy and angry.


    She turned away her face. "Mr. rk, please respect me."


    Benjamin looked at her side face, which was fair and pink. Her eyes were bright and misty.


    He hadn''t seen her for several days. Only now did he realize how much he missed her.


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin had been decent and cautious. He wouldn''t make out with a woman at the elevator entrance


    and give someone a chance to gossip about him.


    But now he couldn''t control himself.


    He wanted to kiss her¡­


    Madelyn''s chin was gripped, and her body was trapped in his arms. Benjamin kissed her so eagerly


    that she could hardly breathe¡­


    Madelyn struggled hard.


    She didn''t want this at all.


    Madelyn struggled desperately. She tried to break away from him. Her slender fingers touched


    something hard on the wall. It was a painting.


    Without hesitation, Madelyn pulled it down and knocked Benjamin''s head with it.


    The painting was not heavy, but the frame had a sharp metal edge, which scraped his forehead.


    Blood trickled down¡­


    Benjamin ignored the wound on his forehead and pressed Madelyn with deep eyes.


    There was still desire in his eyes.


    Madelyn sobered up with fright.


    The painting fell from her hand to the ground. Afraid that he would get revenge, she muttered, "I didn''t


    mean to do it."


    Benjamin didn''t say a word.


    Madelyn bit her lower lip and said, "I''ll take you to the hospital."


    "No, I''ll bandage it at home."


    "Benjamin, go to the hospital."


    ¡­


    Benjamin looked at her with brooding eyes.


    He rubbed her delicate face with his fingers. "Madelyn, are you afraid to go inside with me? Are you


    afraid that you will be upset by what you see? Or do you fear I''ll do something to you?"


    "Don''t worry. I can''t do anything in my current condition."


    Madelyn hesitated.


    Benjamin released her and looked calm.


    "The minimum sentence of intentional assault is one year in jail."


    Madelyn was exasperated.


    What a despicable man!


    Benjamin wiped his blood quietly and gave a mischievous smile. "Or you can tell the judge that you


    hurt me because I made a pass at you and wanted to have sex with you."


    Madelyn pulled a long face.


    After a while, she pressed the button in the elevator in silent agreement.


    Benjamin covered his wound with a paper tissue and followed her into the elevator. As the elevator


    went up, he suddenly uttered, "Madelyn, I don''t regret it."


    Madelyn didn''t look at him.


    She raised her face and looked at the red digits. "Benjamin, this doesn''t change anything."


    She had made up her mind and wouldn''t change it.


    Benjamin didn''t say anything else.


    They got to the apartment.


    Benjamin sat on the sofa. His tall figure looked clumsy after he got injured.


    Madelyn quietly took the first-aid kit and put it in front of him."


    "Can you bandage your wound?"


    Benjamin raised his eyes and gazed at her expressionless face. After a long while, he said in a hoarse


    voice, "I''m bleeding. Don''t you care about me?"


    Madelyn smiled.


    Without saying anything, she took out the disinfectant, bandage, and ointment.


    The wound was on his forehead. It was a coin-sized wound.


    Thankfully, it was not deep.


    Madelyn poured the disinfectant on the cotton swab and cleaned his wound.


    Benjamin felt great pain and swallowed hard, but he endured it without groaning.


    If he groaned at this moment, he would feel ashamed.


    He couldn''t help groaning when he made love to her, and it turned Madelyn on every time.


    When Benjamin thought of this, his eyes darkened.


    He held her hand gently and said in an extremely hoarse voice, "Madelyn, we made love on this sofa."


    However, Madelyn didn''t respond as he wished.


    She said uninterestedly, "You can bring other women here from now on. Apart from the sofa, there are


    many exciting ces for you to sleep with them."


    Benjamin frowned. "I''ve never brought anyone else here."


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled.


    Perhaps he hadn''t brought the other women back home, and she was the only one who ever slept


    here.


    However, there was a house in Benjamin''s heart.


    There was only Eleanor on the isted ind.


    Madelyn didn''t say anything. After all, they had broken up, and it was useless talking about these.


    She bandaged his wound and said, "If the wound bes infected tomorrow, you have to go to the


    hospital."


    Madelyn washed her hands and turned to leave.


    Benjamin grabbed her arm.


    "Don''t go."


    He hugged her from behind. "Madelyn, stay with me."


    Madelyn stiffened slightly.


    She broke away from him quietly and said, "Benjamin, I''ve made it clear to you that we''re over."


    "I''m hungry. Make me a te of spaghetti."


    Madelyn took out her mobile phone. "I''ll order you some takeaway food."


    Benjamin shook off her mobile phone. "Do you let an injured man eat takeaway food? Besides, the


    wound on my head might be infected, and perhaps I''ll have an ident during the night. Ms.


    Green, if anything happens to me, you are the one to be med."


    These were his tricks.


    Madelyn was well aware of it, but she also knew part of his words made sense.


    If she left him alone, he might y another trick and injure himself.


    If he got seriously injured and asked her to take responsibility, what should she do?


    Madelyn thought for a while and didn''t insist on leaving.


    She picked up her mobile phone and took a photo of Benjamin.


    "What are you doing?"


    "Take a photo of you. It can be the evidence in case there are any disputes."


    ¡­


    Benjamin was frustrated.


    Madelyn put away her mobile phone and said softly, "Staying here tonight doesn''t mean anything."


    Benjamin didn''t say a word. He went to the balcony and stared out at the night scene of Gredax.


    Madelyn looked at his back and then nced at the morning dew piano, her eyes getting misty.


    He had given her a great pleasant surprise, and he had doted on her.


    But, that was it.


    Benjamin looked back and saw the wistful look in Madelyn''s eyes.

 Chapter 141 Sleep in the Master Bedroom

    Chapter 141 Sleep in the Master Bedroom


    Chapter 141 Sleep in the Master Bedroom


    Madelyn was uneasy.


    She said in a low voice, "I''ll go make you spaghetti."


    Benjamin looked at her quietly. After a while, he said hoarsely, "Madelyn, I''m sorry."


    Madelyn fled from him.


    Benjamin looked away and lowered his head, lighting a cigarette.


    After twenty minutes, a delicious smell came from the kitchen. Madelyn was a good cook.


    Benjamin stubbed out the cigarette and went to the dining room.


    Madelyn put a te of spaghetti in front of him.


    She turned to leave, but Benjamin sat down and pressed her hand. "Stay with me."


    Madelyn shook her head and said solemnly, "Benjamin, I wouldn''t havee here if you had not been


    injured."


    She was calm. Perhaps she had cried her eyes out in the middle of the night many times, so she was


    numb to the pain when facing him.


    Benjamin''s eyes darkened.


    He didn''t force her to stay. When she was not around, he didn''t have a good appetite. He finished the


    spaghetti in a hurry.


    Madelyn took a nket out of the guest room.


    She pointed to the sofa and said, "I''ll sleep here tonight."


    Benjamin said with brooding eyes, "Sleep in the master bedroom. You slept there before. I won''t do


    anything to you."


    Madelyn was not that na?ve.


    Benjamin had a great desire for sex. If theyy in bed together, he would be easily turned on. Besides,


    they had broken up, so she shouldn''t get entangled with him again.


    Madelyn refused calmly, "I''d better not do that."


    She had drunk a lot of wine, but she tried to stay sober, so she was exhausted. She wrapped herself in


    the nket andy on the sofa, falling asleep soon.


    Benjamin looked at her sleeping face and swallowed hard.


    He went to the bedroom and took a quilt, tossing it at Madelyn. She didn''t wake up, but she curled up


    under the quilt instinctively. She looked fragile under the quilt.


    Recalling that she had drunk a lot of wine, Benjamin felt a pang in his heart.


    Did it upset her so much to stay with him?


    She''d rather drink with the men for the slim chance of getting their investments.


    Benjamin entered the study and dialed a number.


    Penelope picked up the phone.


    She said in a polite but distant voice, "Mr. rk, it''ste at night. What''s up?"


    Benjamin held his mobile phone and said in an aloof voice.


    "Ms. Waylon, do you need students?"


    "Yes, of course."


    ...


    Penelope said inwardly, "We need rich silly students."


    Benjamin said lightly, "I''ll rmend your studio to a student. Please ask Ms. Green to teach her."


    Penelope was startled.


    She asked purposely, "Is it your child?"


    Benjamin smiled and said casually, "Ms. Waylon, did you ever see Madelyn get pregnant? It''s only a


    rtive."


    Penelope cursed inwardly, "What a shameless man!"


    He looked like a decent man in newspapers and magazines. No one knew he was darkly sensual.


    No matter what, it was always good to have more ie. Penelope inquired about Madelyn.


    Benjamin''s words were meaningful.


    "Madelyn is exhausted. She''s sleeping now."


    ...


    In the morning.


    When Madelyn woke up, Benjamin had gotten out of bed.


    His wound didn''t look serious. He sat in the dining room, sipping coffee and reading the newspaper.


    He was wearing a dark grey shirt with a dark tie.


    He was handsome as usual.


    Madelyn was dazed.


    Benjamin nced at her and reminded her softly, "You lost a button."


    Madelyn looked down.


    The third button on her beige shirt was gone.


    When she was sitting, her shirt revealed part of her chest.


    Madelyn quickly tightened her shirt.


    She looked for the button on the sofa for a long time but in vain.


    "Go to the wardrobe and get changed. Your clothes are still there," Benjamin said lightly.


    Madelyn didn''t say a word.


    He bought her those expensive clothes when he doted on her, and a piece of them cost thousands.


    Now that they had parted, she didn''t think she should ept them.


    Just like the morning dew piano.


    Although she liked the piano a lot, she was in no mood to y it again.


    Madelyn said in a low voice, "Please allow me to use the guestroom."


    She used to stay here and knew where the sewing kit was. She moved the cor button lower to make


    the shirt look decent.


    Madelyn didn''t wash up here and just cleaned her face quickly.


    When she came out of the bathroom, she looked at Benjamin.


    "Mr. rk, you look fine. I''m leaving now."


    Benjamin put down the newspaper.


    He looked at her quietly. "Have breakfast before you leave. It was delivered by the mansion this


    morning."


    Madelyn gave a faint smile.


    She said, "I don''t think it''s proper."


    She was terribly distant and polite. It seemed she was determined to cut her ties with him. Benjamin


    didn''t know how the other men won back their girlfriends, but he had a feeling...


    Madelyn was more difficult than the other girls.


    He looked at her thoughtfully.


    Madelyn bowed slightly and broke the silence. "Mr. rk, thank you for continuing to help my father


    with his case. I appreciate your help very much."


    Her words utterly annoyed Benjamin.


    Madelyn treated him the waymoners treated celebrities. They had had the best experience in this


    apartment and fitted happily in life or sex.


    Benjamin was slightly annoyed.


    He picked up the newspaper with his slender fingers and said indifferently, "As you like."


    Madelyn ran away swiftly.


    ...


    She took a taxi back to her apartment. She had a shower and got changed.


    She had breakfast in the car.


    When she got to the studio, Penelope apologized, "I couldn''t afford to offend Benjaminst night."


    Madelyn didn''t me her.


    She said softly, "I have to make it clear to him, after all."


    Penelope showed Madelyn the contract signed by Mr. Kingston and said admiringly, "Madelyn, you did


    a great jobst night. Mr. Kingston is famous for being difficult, but you made him sign the contract."


    Madelyn gave a faint smile.


    She knew that the sudden arrival of Benjaminst night gave her the chance.


    She didn''t want to talk about Benjamin, so she didn''t mention it.


    However, Penelope told her the breaking news. "Last night, Benjamin called me and said his rtive


    woulde to learn piano. He asked you to teach her. Madelyn, do you know if there are any children


    in the rk family? Or is the child his illegitimate daughter? Is it a lie?"


    Madelyn thought carefully.


    It was not surprising that there were children among the rtives of the rk family, but there should


    be very few of them that Benjamin would make an exception and look after.


    Madelyn failed to figure it out.


    Penelope waved her hand casually. "We''ll know when shees."


    As she spoke, Penelope remembered what Benjamin told herst night and asked curiously, "Madelyn,


    did you sleep with himst night?"


    Madelyn was drinking water.


    She spurted out a mouthful of water in shock.

    She looked at Penelope with embarrassment in her misty eyes.


    Penelope shrugged her shoulders and said, "He said you were exhausted and went to sleep. Of


    course, I would think it that way."


    Besides, Benjamin looked hornyst night.


    Madelyn wiped her clothes and said in a soft voice, "No, we didn''t. He was injured, and I bandaged his


    wound. We''re not possible. I won''t sleep with him anymore."


    Penelope thought it was a pity.


    Which woman didn''t desire Benjamin''s body, face, and the sensuality in his eyes?


    Just as Penelope was imagining, the phone rang.


    "Ms. Green, the rk family hase to sign up for your VIP course."

    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Penelope smiled and said, "It''s indeed his rtive."


    Madelyn asked a few questions.


    The receptionist stuttered.


    "Well... It''s a pretty girl. Her mother brought her here."


    Madelyn hung up the phone and looked at Penelope.


    Penelope said with interest, "Do you think the girl is Benjamin''s illegitimate child? Perhaps he had her


    when he was in his twenties. He sent her here to show off because you wanted to break up with him."


    Madelyn gave a wry smile.


    She said, "He won''t do that." After she spoke, she paused.


    When did she start to know Benjamin so well?


    ...


    Madelyn said, "I''ll go and take a look."


    Madelyn went to the small reception room, followed by Penelope, who was eager to watch the fun.


    When Madelyn pushed open the door, she was startled.


    A mother had brought her daughter here, but it was different from what she expected. The dignified


    Brianna and Eloise were sitting on the sofa.


    Madelyn was speechless.


    She sat across from them calmly and said, "Mrs. rk, why do youe?"


    Brianna looked worried.


    She had made painstaking efforts for her son, but he didn''t deserve her efforts. He had offended


    Madelyn and broken up with her. As a result, her son asked her toe out and help him.


    Brianna said in a soft voice, "I learned from Benjamin that you founded a studio. I''ve been thinking of


    She pulled Eloise over and said, "Eloise doesn''t have a music bone, so I brought her here to learn


    piano from you."


    Eloise protested, "Mom!"


    She said inwardly, "I passed Grade 8 of ABRSM at the age of ten!"


    Brianna ignored her and looked at Madelyn gently. "Benjamin rmended the studio to her, but I


    decided to bring her here. Maddie, will you stop seeing me because of Benjamin?"


    Madelyn didn''t know what to do.


    She exchanged a nce with Penelope.


    Penelope was watching the fun without intending to help her out.


    Madelyn had to deal with them alone. She said politely, "Mrs. rk, but we only teach children under


    the age of sixteen."


    Eloise said earnestly, "I''m also a child."


    She held Madelyn''s arm and said cheekily, "Madelyn, please treat me like a five-year-old. I''m not older


    than that."


    Madelyn again was at her wit''s end.


    Penelope patted her shoulder and went out.


    She could hardly stifle herughter. If she stayed there, she would burst outughing.


    Madelyn watched Penelope leave and looked back at Brianna and Eloise, feeling helpless.


    She said with difficulty, "I broke up with Benjamin."


    Brianna blinked quietly.


    "I brought Eloise to learn piano."


    "Yeah, Ie to learn piano."


    ...


    Madelyn felt helpless. The mother and daughter managed to wheedle her into teaching Eloise piano.


    After Brianna paid the tuition fee, she asked the driver to bring many expensive tonics. She said softly,


    "I know Benjamin has a hot temper. You must have had a difficult time with him."


    Madelyn hesitated for a while and decided to tell them the truth.


    She said, "In fact, my rtionship with him is not what you think. We... We..."


    Eloise blinked quietly.


    As a young girl, she understood Madelyn.


    She quickly interrupted Madelyn, "I know. You haven''te to the stage of getting married."


    Eloise nced at Madelyn and wondered if she was an idiot. How could she tell the elders that she


    was Benjamin''s sex partner? Her mother would be shocked even if she was open-minded.


    Madelyn was startled.


    Eloise said to her sweetly, "You''re mine today, no matter what. I want to have a big dinner with you."


    Brianna didn''t stop her daughter from bothering Madelyn.


    She said with a smile, "Madelyn, please take good care of Eloise."


    Madelyn was speechless.


    Eloise said happily, "Madelyn, go have dinner with me."


    Madelyn wished to call Benjamin and ask him to take his sister away.


    In the end, Eloise stayed in the studio for a whole day.


    In the evening, she wheedled Madelyn into having dinner with her.


    Brianna also went there. She sipped the red wine gracefully and watched the two girls whispering to


    each other with a smile.


    Eloise kept chattering.


    "Madelyn, do you know that Eleanor''s fianc¨¦, the famous producer in Monatiz, cheated on her with a


    young model when she was away? The evil is bound to be punished."


    Madelyn frowned slightly.


    Why didn''t Eleanor go back to Monatiz after her fianc¨¦ cheated on her?


    Eloise ran her fingers through her hair and smiled.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    "She''s confident about herself. She''s more sophisticated than the rest of us. She believes her fianc¨¦


    won''t dump her, thinking cheating ismon among men. She stays in Gredax because she wants


    to..."


    Eloise didn''t dare to continue.


    But Madelyn knew what she meant.


    That spoiled girl not only wanted to marry her fianc¨¦ in Monatiz but also attempted to seduce Benjamin.


    She was selfish and willful.


    But someone valued her a lot.


    Madelyn fell silent and sipped the soda water slowly.


    Eloise knew she had said the wrong thing and took Madelyn''s hand. "I''m sorry, Madelyn. Please smile."


    Madelyn looked up at the na?ve and lovely girl in front of her.


    She recalled what she said to Benjaminst time.


    She said, "A life for a life."


    Madelyn couldn''t help feeling guilty and said softly, "Eloise, I''m sorry."


    Eloise was puzzled.


    Madelyn gave a faint smile without exining.


    When dinner was almost over, Madelyn thought of paying the bill. When she rose, a slender finger


    appeared on the luxurious table.


    Madelyn looked up in surprise and saw Benjamin.


    He was dazzling tonight.


    He wore dark grey trousers and a sweater under a ck coat.


    He looked elegant.


    The coat ttered his perfect features, which attracted much attention in the restaurant.


    Benjamin said in a slightly hoarse voice, "I''ve paid the bill."


    Madelyn said softly, "Thank you."


    When she was about to take her leave, Benjamin said, "Ie to pick up my mother. I haven''t had


    dinner yet. Ms. Green, do you mind if I sit down for dinner?"


    He sounded polite and proud.


    It was not proper to refuse, so Madelyn forced a smile and said, "Of course not, Mr. rk."


    Benjamin nced at her.


    To her surprise, he didn''t ask for a new set of cutlery. Instead, he picked up her ss of soda water and


    took a sip.


    Brianna gave a meaningful smile.


    Madelyn blushed with embarrassment. "Mr. rk, I''ll ask for a new set of cutlery for you."


    "No, thank you."


    He gazed at her. "We did that a lot before. I don''t mind it."


    Madelyn was speechless. How could he say that in front of Brianna?


    Her face burnt.


    Benjamin had been busy during the day, and he felt hungry.


    He ate quickly but elegantly.


    Madelyn felt time crawling slowly and wondered how she could get away. Even if she was stupid, she


    knew it was a trapid by Benjamin.


    What did he want?


    He broke her heart and tried to make it up to her. What did he she was?


    However, Madelyn felt helpless.


    The rk family was powerful. If she wanted to establish herself in Gredax, she couldn''t offend him


    openly.


    "Ms. Green, the way you look at me will give me a false impression." Benjamin wiped his mouth.


    Madelyn ignored him and said, "You''ve thought too much."


    Benjamin picked up her ss and sipped the water. His eyes became more earnest, but his words


    were not pleasant. "Really? Perhaps... I thought you hated me because you loved me."

 Chapter 143 Are You Jealous

    Chapter 143 Are You Jealous


    Chapter 143 Are You Jealous


    Even with an elder present, Benjamin spoke without reservations.


    Madelyn was furious!


    She gracefully stood up and nodded at Brianna. "Mrs. Roberts, I have something to attend to, so I''ll


    take my leave."


    Brianna wore a sorrowful expression.


    Why was her son behaving this way in his love life?


    Girls are meant to be cated, not confronted. He was never seen behave so rudely before!


    Brianna spoke softly, "Ben, why don''t you walk Maddie out!"


    Madelyn gave a faint smile. "I can drive myself."


    Benjamin didn''t insist.


    He ced his cup down with a touch of reserve. "By the way, there will be a brief meeting at the office


    tomorrow regarding your father''s case."


    "Will your father be attending, or...?"


    Of course, Madelyn wouldn''t let her father attend; she was afraid it would upset him. So, even though


    she knew Benjamin had ulterior motives, she could only attend by herself.


    That''s exactly what Benjamin wanted.


    He remainedposed. "I''ll be waiting for you at the office."


    Madelyn hurriedly left.


    Once she was gone, Briannained, "Ben, this isn''t right! Who pursues a girl by inviting her to the


    office?"


    Benjamin smiled lightly.


    He naturally wouldn''t tell his mother about the setbacks he encountered with Madelyn.


    He stood up gantly. "Let me escort you home."


    Her son was handsome and naturally exuded an elegant temperament. Who knew how many girls


    secretly loved him!


    Brianna felt both proud and sorrowful.


    "Ben, with your excellence, howe you''re still single?"


    Eloise scoffed, "me it on himself!"


    Benjamin:"..."


    *


    The next day, at two o''clock in the afternoon, Madelyn arrived at Benjamin''s office.


    She was personally received by Paisley, his secretary.


    "Mr. rk is still in an international video conference, Ms. Green, please wait for a moment."


    She escorted Madelyn into Benjamin''s private meeting room and brewed coffee herself before leaving


    to attend to her own tasks.


    As Madelyn sipped her coffee, she admired the decorations in the room.


    Benjamin had a preference for post-modern art, and the meeting room was tastefully decorated.


    Suddenly, Madelyn''s gaze fell upon a vintage bronze artwork.


    It was ced upside down.


    She felt curious and reached out to pick it up.


    However, when she turned it over, she immediately regretted it. It was actually a photo frame


    containing a photo that Madelyn had seen before-


    24-year-old Benjamin and 22-year-old Eleanor.


    Madelyn silently looked at it for a few seconds and then put it back in its original position.


    A voice came from outside the door.


    "It was left there during the renovation, and I always forgot to throw it away."


    Madelyn turned around.


    Benjamin stood by the door of the meeting room, dressed in a ssic ck and white suit, looking


    mature and handsome.


    He walked over, picked up the photo frame, and looked at Madelyn, his voice gentle.


    "Are you upset seeing this?"


    Madelyn evaded the topic, saying, "Mr. rk, I''m here for my father..."


    "I know, no need to emphasize," Benjamin interrupted.


    He threw the photo frame into the dustbin and sat down on the sofa, flipping open a case file. "Ms.


    Green, let''s get started!"


    Madelyn was a bit confused.


    He had said there was a meetingst night, so why was it just the two of them now?


    Benjamin looked intently at her.


    "Do you doubt my professional abilities?" he asked.


    Madelyn didn''t dare to.


    She mustered up her courage and listened to him as he used professional terms and analyzed the


    case...


    She tried her best, but as he went on, she really felt sleepy.


    "Ms. Green."


    Benjamin''s expression turned serious. "Are you falling asleep?"


    And then, as if nothing had happened, he continued, "I saw you sleeping soundly on the sofast


    night."


    Madelyn was speechless and endured until six o''clock.


    She thought it was almost over, and Benjamin should be done for the day.


    Sure enough, Benjamin casually closed the case file and said, "It''s gettingte. Let me treat you to


    dinner, Ms. Green!"


    Madelyn politely declined, "Between us..."


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    "I still have some details to discuss with you. We can chat over dinner," Benjamin interrupted.


    He gazed at her, waiting for her response.


    Deep down, Madelyn couldn''t refuse. As long as he didn''t push it too far, she was willing to


    entrance of the meeting room, "Ben!"


    Madelyn looked up.


    It was Eleanor.


    Eleanor held a document in her hand, looking sharp and professional, as if discussing business


    matters.


    Madelyn had some respect to her.


    Even though she has a fianc¨¦ and their rtionship is deteriorating, Eleanor still possesses the energy


    to pursue men like this!


    She really had a lot of energy!


    Eleanor had indeede prepared. She spoke softly, "Ben, I came here to talk about my case. Did I


    interrupt something?"


    Taking advantage of the situation, Madelyn stood up and said, "Mr. rk, you two can talk!"


    But before she could make a move, Benjamin caught hold of her.


    He stared at her intently.


    After a while, he spoke softly, "My forehead injury hasn''t healed yet, Ms. Green. Aren''t you responsible


    for it?"


    He asked Madelyn to wait for him in the meeting room, while he took Eleanor to his office.


    Benjamin walked ahead, with Eleanor following behind.


    Suddenly, her gaze froze.


    Eleanor saw the photo frame in the dustbin. It was a picture of her and Benjamin during their happiest


    times, and it had been thrown away.


    Eleanor looked at Madelyn and asked, "Did you throw it away?"


    Madelyn didn''t give a direct answer. "I wouldn''t destroy someone else''s belongings."


    Eleanor''s face turned pale.


    Then, it was Ben who threw it away?


    How could he, how could he discard their shared memories like that?


    Trembling lips, Eleanor was unwilling to ept this. She stared at Madelyn and said, "Ms. Green, do


    you think you can win Ben over like this? Our past..."


    "I''m not interested in your past!"


    "Ms. Bet, if you can''t forget your past and truly like the picture, then hold onto it tightly. Otherwise, if


    you''re not careful, your past will slip away!"


    ...


    Madelyn is a practical girl.


    Perhaps she did mind Eleanor''s presence to some extent, but she and Benjamin were truly no longer


    possible, so she didn''t need to concern herself with Eleanor.


    She grabbed her bag and document and left directly.


    Madelyn sat in the car, preparing to leave when the car door was pulled open.


    Benjamin stood outside the car.


    He gazed at her and asked calmly, "Are you jealous?"


    "No!" she replied.


    Benjamin''s gaze became more profound. After contemting for a moment, he asked her, "What do I


    need to do for you toe back to me, or is there nothing I can do anymore?"


    "Yes!" she affirmed.


    Benjamin suddenly smiled.


    He said, "I''ve handed Eleanor''s case over to Mr. Sawyer. I won''t have any professional contact with her


    in the future. Madelyn... Eleanor and I were in the past!"


    Madelyn looked ahead.


    Without expression, she said, "Mr. rk, you will never know how I felt lying on the operating table that


    night! Besides the pain, it was more about humiliation!"


    Her gaze shifted to him. "I am scared, and I dare not fall in love with someone again!"


    After speaking, tears welled up in Madelyn''s eyes.


    She gently pressed on the gas pedal and drove away from Benjamin.


    In fact, the issue between them wasn''t Eleanor, but Benjamin himself.


    Because Benjamin didn''t love her, that''s why the event of that night happened. If Madelyn was the


    woman he deeply loved, how could he bear to leave her?


    Madelyn had loved Daniel but was deeply hurt!


    In this rtionship with Benjamin, she wanted to just protect herself......

 Chapter 144 Do You Love Me

    Chapter 144 Do You Love Me


    Chapter 144 Do You Love Me


    Afraid of his continued entanglement, Madelyn drove home.


    She suddenly arrived home, surprising and delighting Samuel and Cam.


    Cam pulled her inside with a smile and said, "Your dad was just thinking about you, and here you


    are! You and your dad truly have a telepathic connection!"


    Madelyn put down the fruits and approached Samuel.


    Father and daughter chatted for a while.


    Suddenly, Cam''s voice came from the kitchen, "Madelyn,e help me out."


    Madelyn smiled and agreed.


    But as soon as she entered the kitchen, Cam closed the door behind her.


    "What''s going on, Cam?" Madelyn found her strange.


    Cam pulled her to the window and pointed downstairs. "Isn''t that Mr. rk''s car? It''s been parked


    there for a while! What''s going on with you two? Did you have a fight or break up?"


    Madelyn didn''t expect Benjamin to chase her here.


    She casually washed the strawberries.


    "It''s over between us!"


    At that moment, Benjamin got out of the car, holding a gift box in his hand, seemingly about to go


    upstairs.


    Cam whispered, "He seems quite fond of you! Madelyn, should you reconsider?"


    Madelyn shook her head.


    At that moment, the doorbell rang.


    Cam stifled augh, "Looks like someone''s at the door."


    Madelyn felt annoyed.


    If he hade to her door in the past, she would have been happy for days. But now that they have


    ended their absurd rtionship, what does it matter if hees like this?


    She hurriedly spoke before Cam: "I''ll go talk to him."


    Madelyn went to open the door.


    Standing outside was a refined Benjamin, holding imported fruits and gazing deeply at Madelyn.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Madelyn partially closed the door and spoke in a low voice.


    "Mr. rk, what are you doing here?"


    "I came to see your family!"


    Madelyn bit her lip lightly. "It''s done between us, you don''t need to do this."


    At that moment...


    Samuel''s voice came from inside the house. "Maddie... who is it? Why are you whispering outside


    instead of inviting the visitor in?"


    Madelyn casually said, "It''s an insurance salesman!"


    Samuel murmured in response, clearly believing her.


    Madelyn pushed Benjamin lightly. "You should leave now."


    But Benjamin not only refused to leave, he also shouted towards the inside, "Mr. Green, I am Madelyn''s


    boyfriend."


    Madelyn became furious.


    "Benjamin, have you no shame?"


    "I haven''t! Madelyn... are you going to introduce me as your boyfriend or tell your dad that we''re just


    ''friends'' in a physical sense?"


    Madelyn''s face turned red.


    Benjamin freed up one hand and gently pinched her cheek.


    He said, "If you don''t let me in, I''ll find a way to stay at your home and sleep over."


    How could Madelyn let that happen?


    But Samuel had alreadye over, opened the door, and saw a handsome young man tugging at his


    precious daughter.


    Samuel: "..."


    In an instant, Benjamin returned to his elite demeanor.


    He spoke gracefully, "Hello, Mr. Green! My name is Benjamin, I am your proxywyer and also


    Madelyn''s boyfriend."


    So it''s Mr. rk...


    Samuel immediately developed a good impression on him!


    He looked at Madelyn and asked, "Why is Mr. rk standing outside?"


    He apologized with a smile, "My daughtercks manners, I hope Mr. rk doesn''t mind."


    "Madelyn is doing fine!"


    "She sometimes throws tantrums in a coquettish way, and I find her quite adorable."


    ...


    Madelyn followed behind, listening to him say these words, feeling that he was shameless.


    As Benjamin entered the Green''s house, he felt like he had returned to his own home.


    He was a person with great tact, easily winning others'' favor. He kept addressing Mr. Green and


    praising Cam''s delicious cooking, making the elderly couple very happy, almost willing to package


    Madelyn and give her to him.


    Samuel was in high spirits.


    He took out a chessboard, "Mr. rk, let''s y chess?"


    Benjamin smiled faintly, "Sure, I hope Mr. Green will go easy on me."


    Saying that, he took off his ck overcoat, handed it to Madelyn, and spoke to her in a particrly


    familiar tone, "Go prepare some fruits."


    Samuel and Cam exchanged nces.


    They were very satisfied.


    Madelyn gritted her teeth inwardly and reluctantly went to cut a te of fruits.


    As Madelyn was cutting the fruits, Benjamin unexpectedly came into the kitchen and closed the kitchen


    door behind him.


    "Benjamin, what do you think you''re doing..."


    Before Madelyn could finish her sentence, she was kissed.


    She widened her eyes, staring at him in astonishment.


    Benjamin''s voice was low and husky, "You don''t even know how to kiss? Madelyn... rx a bit and let


    me kiss you."


    Madelyn''s slender neck stiffened.


    She clenched her fist and swung it at his shoulder.


    "Benjamin, you jerk!"


    "Don''t make a sound! The jerk is about to kiss you..."


    ...


    The sensation was too exhrating.


    Just a door separated them from her parents, and if she made any noise, Samuel and Cam would


    know what they were doing...


    Madelyn''s fist pressed against his shoulder.


    Benjamin held her slender waist, caressing back and forth...


    He was really skilled. Being kissed and teased by him in such a ce, Madelyn slowly started to feel


    something.


    But she also felt embarrassed.


    Just as Benjamin wanted to go further, Madelyn''s body stiffened.


    She was scared. She feared his touch there...


    The memory of that night was nothing but pain.


    "No...," Madelyn whispered into his shoulder, "Benjamin, can you please leave me alone? I can''t afford


    to y your games!"


    Benjamin felt a strong desire, especially since it had been quite some time since he had been intimate


    with a woman.


    However, just now he sensed Madelyn''s resistance. Her body longed for him, but her mind rejected


    him.


    He turned his head and gently nibbled on her earlobe.


    "Madelyn, I don''t mean to toy with you!"


    He was serious. He wanted to pursue her, to date her.


    The time they spent together was beautiful, and he missed it...


    "I don''t want to!"


    "Benjamin, I admit that I have feelings for you..."


    "But I don''t want to continue anymore!"


    ...


    After Madelyn finished speaking, she gently pushed him away and opened the door all at once.


    Benjamin felt extremely ufortable.


    He had been affectionate with her for a while, and he had started to develop feelings. Now, with the


    door open, if Samuel had been a little more attentive, he would have noticed.


    But Samuel was still happily smiling.


    "Mr. rk, aren''t youing over?"


    Benjamin used washing his hands as an excuse, ring at Madelyn harshly, and replied, "I''ll be right


    there."


    Madelyn''s cheeks turned slightly red. She carried the fruits to the living room and then retreated to her


    bedroom.


    Benjamin stayed at Green''s house for quite a while, and when he left, it was alreadyte at night.


    He stood at the doorway of Madelyn''s bedroom. "Madelyn, I''m leaving!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to respond.


    Samuel liked Benjamin a lot, so he personally came over. "Maddie, it''s impolite not to see Mr. rk off."


    Madelyn also wanted to talk to him and rify things.


    She didn''t want Benjamin toe to her home again.


    Silently putting on her coat, she followed Benjamin downstairs.


    Benjamin opened the passenger seat. "Get in the car."


    Madelyn didn''t move. "Let''s talk here!"


    Benjamin lowered his head and lit a cigarette. After taking a puff, he smiled. "What do you want to tell


    me? Not toe to your home again?"


    Madelyn stared at him.


    With a firm grip, Benjamin pressed her against the car. He leaned in close and whispered, "Your body


    clearly still desires me, so why won''t you be with me?"


    He kissed her gently, trying to ignite her passion.


    At first, Madelyn resisted, but then she stopped resisting and allowed him to continue.


    After a while...


    She asked softly, "Benjamin, do you love me?"

 Chapter 145 I Cant Give You What You Want

    Chapter 145 I Can''t Give You What You Want


    Chapter 145 I Can''t Give You What You Want


    Madelyn finished speaking.


    Benjamin was visibly taken aback.


    He slowly let go of Madelyn and stood there, quietly smoking.


    Madelyn had expected this, but she still felt a little saddened.


    She stood up gently.


    After a moment of silence, she whispered, "Benjamin, all you want is a physical rtionship! But I want


    emotions, I even want marriage. So, it''s clear that we''re not suitable for each other. In the end, our


    passion might only turn into resentment, so what''s the point to date with you?"


    Benjamin flicked the cigarette butt away and stamped it out.


    He gazed at her in the moonlight.


    Madelyn had a fairplexion, and her eyes were slightly red. She looked like a cute little rabbit.


    After careful consideration, Benjamin finally spoke.


    "Madelyn, I admit that before I met you, I did equate emotions with work! I would invest a certain


    amount of money and effort and expect a return... I don''t think there''s anything wrong with that!"


    "But I don''t just want to sleep with you."


    "Otherwise, I wouldn''t be so persistent, would I?"


    Madelyn looked at him. She knew he hadn''t gotten to the point yet.


    Sure enough, Benjamin''s gaze became intense.


    He spoke softly, "Madelyn, I don''t know how far we can go together! But my feelings for you are


    sincere, and I have never been so persistent with a woman before, you''re the first."


    Madelyn lowered her gaze.


    Benjamin didn''t deceive her, nor did he say any sweet words.


    He gently lifted her chin. "Madelyn, I like you."


    But, it''s not to the extent of love.


    His love, which burned too fiercely in his youth, has not yet regained the feeling of being heartbroken


    for a girl.


    He did like Madelyn, and he wasn''t particrly happy during their recent arguments.


    But, it''s far from being sleepless and restless.


    Instead... it was more the difort caused by disrupting the rhythm of life.


    He shouldn''t have said these things to her. Any girl who heard them wouldn''t want to make up with him.


    But Benjamin felt a hint of pity for Madelyn.


    He didn''t want to deceive her!


    Benjamin took a step back.


    There was aposed expression on his handsome face. "Madelyn, I''m sorry! What you want, I can''t


    give it to you!"


    Including marriage, including children!


    The night wind howled...


    Madelyn felt cold, and she gently wrapped her coat around herself.


    She looked at Benjamin in the moonlight.


    All the embarrassment and anger from before seemed to have suddenly drifted away from her.


    She liked Benjamin, but she thought they didn''t meet at the right time. They both had experienced


    emotional traumas and didn''t trust each other.


    Madelyn took a step back.


    She smiled lightly and said, "Mr. rk, be careful driving on your way back."


    Benjamin''s gaze became deep.


    He nodded reservedly, opened the car door, and sat inside.


    But instead of leaving immediately, he lit another cigarette and took a drag. He looked up and saw that


    Madelyn was still there. He shifted his chin slightly and said, "Go upstairs quickly! It''s chilly at night."


    Madelyn looked at him deeply, giving him one final nce.


    She turned around abruptly and left.


    Benjamin slowly moved the cigarette away from his lips and stared at her back...


    Over the years, Madelyn was the only woman who captured his heart.


    If there were no differences between them, he believed they could have lived together for a long time.

    He also knew that the reason they reached this point was because of him.


    He could tell that Madelyn had feelings for him.


    But when she asked him with teary eyes if he loved her...


    He gave up on this rtionship!


    He didn''t want to entrust his future to another woman, nor did he want to taste the bitterness of betrayal


    again, even though he knew that Madelyn would never do such a thing.


    Benjamin sat in the car for a long time.


    He took some time to digest, to process the aftermath of this rtionship...


    *


    Soon, two months passed...


    During these two months, many things happened. Madelyn and Penelope sessfully assumed


    control of Music Center, making it Gredax''srgest music training organization. They were doing well in


    their careers.


    The trial of Samuel''s case also took cest month.


    Madelyn saw Benjamin once.


    They exchanged a few words, all about business matters. His attitude was cold and distant, as if they


    had never experienced those passionate nights...


    Madelyn was the same way.


    Later, the court announced the verdict that Samuel was innocent.


    Madelyn hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she sent a WhatsApp message.


    [Thank you, Mr. rk!]


    ...


    On the third day, Benjamin finally replied with a message.


    "You''re wee, it''s what I should do." he said.


    Madelyn looked at this reply and remembered when she first met Benjamin.


    He could be deceptive and reserved.


    She smiled gently and didn''t think much of it.


    In early December, Vivian invited her out for dinner.


    Madelyn arrived at the ce and looked around. "Are you getting younger? At your age, you''re eating


    kids'' meals?"


    Vivian chuckled.


    She lowered her voice and said, "Madelyn, I''ve been longing for a childtely."


    Madelyn knew Vivian''s situation - Jackson was still ying around outside and only gave Vivian face


    by not bringing the girls home.


    Madelyn stirred her milk tea lightly.


    After a while, she asked, "Are you sure?"


    Vivian seemed dazed for a moment, then said, "Madelyn, as you know, I haven''t worked since I got


    married. I can''t live without him... I don''t care about those girls around him anymore!"


    She looked at her belly. "Perhaps having a child will make him settle down."


    Madelyn gently held her hand.


    "Vivian, have you thought about working with me?"


    Vivian shook her head and smiled, "No, I''d better not mislead the youth!"


    Madelyn didn''t insist.


    Suddenly, Vivian coughed lightly. "Tomorrow night, it''s my first anniversary with Jackson. Madelyn, why


    don''t youe and join us?"


    Madelyn hesitated.


    After all, Jackson and Benjamin were in the same circle. What if she bumped into Benjamin?


    Vivian confidently said, "That cannot happen! Benjamin hasn''t attended any social events in the past


    two months. He''s been living a peaceful life like a monk. Besides, Jackson hasn''t had the influence to


    invite him to such gatherings."


    Upon hearing this, Madelyn readily agreed.


    Vivian then shared some gossip.


    "Madelyn, do you know that Eleanor has returned to Ennd? Jackson identally let it slip once and


    mentioned that Eleanor got into a fight with her fianc¨¦''s mistress. That mistress was tough, and she


    ended up sending Eleanor to the hospital."


    Madelyn was stunned.


    Vivian''s eyes and expression revealed a sense of enjoyment.


    "It''s a case of tit-for-tat!"


    "I heard that the mistress is actually a maid from the Bet family."


    "I guess she''s quite open-minded in that aspect, which probably appeals to men."


    ...


    As Vivian continued speaking, it became like a midnight show.


    Madelyn couldn''t bear to listen any longer and quickly excused herself, saying, "I have something to


    attend to. I should go now."


    Vivian, feeling concerned, said, "Don''t forget the gathering tomorrow night. I''ll send you the location on


    WhatsApp."


    Madelyn waved her hand dismissively.


    She kept the gathering in mind, and the next evening, she purposely changed into a dress when she


    returned to her t.


    A smoky grey long dress,


    with a thin coat over it.


    Madelyn tied up her chestnut-colored hair, looking quite ethereal and otherworldly in her appearance.


    However, as soon as she entered the private room, everyone''s gaze became odd, and no one said a


    word.


    Madelyn found it rather strange.


    It was only after her vision cleared that she saw the person sitting in the corner -


    It was Benjamin!


    He was dressed in refined wool trousers and a deep blue shirt.


    Clearly, he hade from a formal asion.


    Madelyn''s scalp tightened, and she looked at Vivian...


    Didn''t you say he wouldn''te?

 Chapter 146 Did You Ever Miss Me

    Chapter 146 Did You Ever Miss Me


    Chapter 146 Did You Ever Miss Me


    Madelyn looked over.


    Vivian wanted to crawl into a hole.


    How could she have known that Benjamin would suddenly appear? He had never shown much interest


    in Jackson.


    Out of guilt, Vivian had arranged for Madelyn to be far away from Benjamin, keeping her distance.


    But Benjamin couldn''t resist ying his tricks -


    Just as Madelyn took off her coat and sat down, Benjamin walked over, chin raised.


    The people around Madelyn quickly moved aside.


    Benjamin boldly sat down next to Madelyn.


    Their previous rtionship was known by almost everyone present, so they all fell silent.


    Benjamin seemed quite at ease.


    He leaned back on the couch and casually asked Madelyn, "How have you beentely?"


    Madelyn kept her gaze fixed on the LCD screen and tried to speak to him in a rxed tone. She didn''t


    want to appear petty, as it would make him think she couldn''t let go.


    "Not bad!"


    Benjamin gave a faint smile.


    He said, "Not bad is good enough! It''s wise for us to separate."


    Madelyn didn''t respond.


    Seeing Benjamin again still stirred up feelings in her.


    She didn''t want to say too much to him; his gaze was too intense, and she was afraid he might


    discover something...


    Later, the people in the room started ying around.


    Benjamin joined them, while Madelyn sat there ying with her phone. She faintly heard them ying


    Truth or Dare, and a girl boldly confessed her feelings to Benjamin.


    Of course, she was rejected.


    Madelyn felt bored. Especially sitting next to Benjamin, she felt even more ufortable.


    Just as she was about to go to the restroom, a phone rang in the private room. It was Jackson''s phone.


    It was Elizabeth.


    She kept calling until Jackson answered.


    In this situation, Vivian couldn''t have an outburst.


    Knowing that Vivian still wanted to continue the marriage, Madelyn let out a sigh and asked her to


    apany her to the restroom.


    The two of them stood side by side at the sink.


    After thinking it over, Madelyn asked softly, "Have they been having an affair?"


    Vivian''s eyes were red.


    She took out a feminine cigarette from her purse and tremblingly lit it.


    Taking a deep puff, she looked at Madelyn.


    "Jackson is a scumbag."


    "He bought a t and has been supporting Elizabeth. I checked the bills, and he spends two to three


    million on that bitch every month."


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t know what to say.


    Vivianughed indifferently.


    "I''vee to an understanding with Jackson!"


    "I don''t care about him, and we actually get along fine. He''s more generous with me... Madelyn, don''t


    be like me. You deserve someone who loves you properly."


    Madelyn patted her shoulder lightly. "No matter what, if you need me, I''ll be there for you."


    "Sure."


    Vivian smiled and bumped her shoulder with her fist.


    At that moment, Jackson approached holding his phone, looking uneasy.


    Vivian smiled coldly. "Jackson, on the anniversary of our marriage, you''re going to spend time with her?


    Is she that precious to you? You probably haven''t seen her seducing Daniel."


    Jackson stared at Vivian intently.


    Vivian was beautiful, but too demanding.


    After two years of marriage, she still refused to have children for fear of ruining her figure.


    Elizabeth was different; she was willing to have children for him...


    Elizabeth said she was pregnant and craved sour foods.


    She must be pregnant with a boy!


    Now, no matter who or what the circumstances are, nothing can stop him from going to apany her.


    Jackson didn''t dare tell the truth and made up an excuse, "I have some business to attend to. I''ll be


    back soon."


    Vivian naturally didn''t believe such an excuse.


    But she couldn''t keep him, not even on their anniversary. Vivian was utterly desperate.


    She watched her husband leave.


    Finally, she asked, "Jackson, are you really going?"


    Jackson felt guilty and barely managed to say, "Yeah."


    Vivian suddenly smiled and gently flicked her long hair. "Fine! Go then!"


    Jackson hurriedly rushed into the elevator, in a state of panic.


    Once he left, Vivian''s lips started to tremble, and her whole body couldn''t stop shaking.


    "Madelyn, how did he be like this?"


    Madelyn asked softly, "Do you want a divorce?"


    Vivian shook her head with red eyes.


    She took out her phone and made a call.


    "Grayson... I''m at the club!"


    "I''ve had too much drink. Can you take me home?"


    "Yeah, Jackson''s with someone else. I''m alone..."


    ...


    Madelyn''s scalp tingled.


    She held onto Vivian, asking, "What are you doing?"


    Vivian gently removed Madelyn''s hand and, with a determined look on her beautifully pale face, said,


    "Madelyn, I know very well what I''m doing! Grayson likes me; he pursued me for a long time in college."


    "But it''s impossible between you."


    "I know that! But I can find enjoyment with him."


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t know what to say.


    Soon, Grayson arrived, and Vivian nestled in his arms, radiant and beautiful.


    But Madelyn knew that Vivian was crying inside.


    She thought maybe this was for the best. Perhaps things couldn''t get any worse...


    Vivian acted boldly.


    She returned to the private room with Madelyn, took her coat, and left with Grayson, openly disying


    their rtionship.


    The room fell silent for a moment.


    Even a fool could see that it was the end for Jackson and Vivian.


    Madelyn didn''t want to stay any longer. She went over to her seat, grabbed her things, and prepared to


    leave.


    Her hand was suddenly grabbed.


    Benjamin''s hoarse voice sounded, "Stay and y for a while."


    Madelyn was still grieving for Vivian and spoke with a slightly choked voice, "I want to go back."


    Benjamin held a cigarette in one hand.


    With the other hand, he forcefully made Madelyn sit next to him...


    Someone spoke up, but Madelyn didn''t know who it was. "Ben drew ''Truth'' and can ask any person


    three questions."


    Madelyn''s heart skipped a beat.


    Benjamin''s handsome face fixed his gaze on her. "Ms. Green, I want to ask you."


    Madelyn refused, "I didn''t participate in the game."


    Benjamin took a deep drag on his cigarette, his cheeks sinking in, exuding irresistible allure.


    "I can ask anyone in the room."


    ...


    Madelyn felt angry but didn''t want to make a scene.


    She pursed her lips slightly, conceding.


    Benjamin''s gaze deepened, and his voice became slow and hoarse.


    "First question, do you have a boyfriend?"


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    "No!"


    ...


    "Second question, is there someone you like?"


    ...


    Madelyn refused to answer.


    Someone taunted ambiguously, "Madelyn, you can''t y it?"


    Madelyn bit her lip in anger.


    She looked at Benjamin.


    To her surprise, he smiled intoxicatedly, not pretending to be deep and mysterious as usual.


    Reluctantly, Madelyn said, "Yes."


    ...


    The room fell silent.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn''s delicate face, his voice bing softer. "Third question. On all these


    nights we''ve been apart, have you ever thought of me?"


    ...


    Madelyn couldn''t hold back any longer and said, "Benjamin, you''re going too far."


    Her angry expression was vivid.


    Benjaminughed.


    He leaned back against the sofa, saying, "Being angry is good; it''s better than trying not to cry."


    Madelyn felt a jolt in her heart.


    Benjamin still gently held her hand and whispered, "Don''t leave, just wait a little longer."


    Madelyn felt puzzled...


    Benjamin let go of her, picked up his mug and said in a casual tone, "Jackson wille back


    eventually."

    Chapter 147 Do You Still Care About Our Rtionship


    Chapter 147 Do You Still Care About Our Rtionship


    As Benjamin had predicted, Jackson wanted a son, but he also cared about his reputation.


    He went tofort Elizabeth and returned to the private room about an hourter.


    "Where''s Vivian?"


    The private room was quiet, and everyone present was on Vivian''s side. Jackson had crossed the line


    this time.


    He could even have an extramarital affair with a woman like Elizabeth!


    Seeing that everyone''s expressions were off, Jackson forced himself to ask again, "Did Vivian leave?"


    Benjamin responded casually, "She left with Grayson."


    Everyone knew about Grayson''s pursuit of Vivian. Now, Vivian was upset and alone with Grayson. It


    was easy to guess what would happen!


    Jackson''s face turned pale and he looked furious.


    He started dialing Vivian''s phone frantically.


    Vivian''s phone was turned off.


    He cursed bitterly and then began dialing Grayson''s phone. It connected.


    However, the sounds of a man and a woman came from the other end of the line...


    It was very ambiguous.


    Just by listening to it, one could tell how intense it was!


    Jackson clenched his fists. "Grayson, let Vivian answer the phone!"


    Grayson, gasping for breath and sounding particrly cheerful, handed the phone to Vivian. "It''s


    Jackson''s call."


    Vivian''s voice was faint. "Jackson, what''s wrong?"


    ...


    People in the private room were quiet...


    Jackson smashed his phone!


    He ran out like a madman, wanting to kill Grayson.


    Madelyn wanted to follow Jackson, but she was stopped by Benjamin. His tone was indifferent as he


    said, "With Grayson there, what are you in a hurry for? Besides, things have reached this point, it''s


    already certain that they will break up. Isn''t this what you wanted?"


    In the end, Madelyn listened to his words and didn''t catch up.


    Perhaps Benjamin was right. Vivian and Jackson had reached the end of their rtionship, and a little


    drama wouldn''t hurt.


    She didn''t stay long, grabbed her coat, and walked out of the private room.


    This time, Benjamin didn''t stop her. Instead, he followed her. He intercepted Madelyn in the parking lot.


    Madelyn was already sitting in her car.


    Benjamin lightly tapped on the car window.


    She rolled down the window and asked politely, "Mr. rk, what do you want?"


    Benjamin looked at her intently.


    His voice was hoarse, "Ms. Green, if you have some time, would you like to have a drink with me?"


    Madelyn kept her gaze forward.


    After a moment, she turned her head slightly and smiled, "No, thanks! Mr. rk, good night."


    She finished speaking and raised the car window.


    Right in front of Benjamin, she slowly drove away...


    Benjamin didn''t insist. He didn''t really want to spend the night with Madelyn. This chance encounter


    just made him realize that he still had feelings for her and wanted to hold her.


    This feeling was just like when he first met her.


    His excitement and enthusiasm hadn''t diminished one bit.


    Earlier in the private room, he asked Madelyn if she ever thought of him at night, but Madelyn didn''t


    answer.


    He knew she must have thought of him because he also longed for her, to the point of physical pain...


    ...


    Madelyn drove home.


    As soon as she parked the car, her first thing was to call Vivian, and this time Vivian''s phone was on.


    Vivian seemed indifferent.


    Somehow, Jackson found the hotel and got into a fight with Grayson, even threatening to kill him.


    But the Wyatt family wasn''t to be trifled with, and Jackson couldn''t do anything!


    Vivian was in a good mood. "Madelyn, I can never forget Jackson''s expression... Haha... It was so


    thrilling, truly sensational!"


    As she spoke, though, she gritted her teeth.


    "That cheating scumbag, who doesn''t know how to cheat? I have plenty of pursuers around me."


    ...


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    She spoke harshly, but Madelyn knew she was hurting inside.


    Madelyn softly said, "Where are you? I''lle pick you up."


    Vivian''s voice was hoarse. "At the police station!"


    Madelyn,"..."


    She started the car again and drove to the police station.


    Jackson and Grayson ultimately turned against each other, both ending up with bruised and swollen


    faces. Madelyn was impressed by Grayson when she arrived at the police state - the fight had taken its


    toll.


    Jackson looked like he had suffered a defeat, showing no joy in having a son. Covered in bruises, his


    eyes were frighteningly sinister.


    He looked at Vivian but didn''ty a finger on her.


    Grayson continued to provoke him, and Jackson sneered, "You can show off for a while, but Vivian is


    ultimately mine!"


    Madelyn was greatly impressed.


    At this point, Jackson still wanted to live peacefully and harmoniously with Vivian.


    She looked towards Vivian.


    Vivian lit a cigarette, exuding a seductive aura. She signaled to Grayson, "You go home first."


    Grayson understood what she meant.


    They would have plenty of opportunities in the future...


    Grayson straightened his clothes and left.


    With red eyes, Jackson questioned Vivian, "Are you disregarding our years of rtionship?"


    Vivian stepped off the stairs, her tone indifferent.


    She looked into Jackson''s eyes and said slowly, word by word, "Our years of rtionship have been


    eaten by dogs! Jackson, how you treat me is how I will treat you. It''s fair."


    Jackson fell silent...


    After a while, he suddenly said, "Vivian, let''s start over."


    Vivian''s body stiffened.


    She smiled softly and said, "How things develop from now on will depend on your actions, but it''s


    impossible for me to love you wholeheartedly like before! This is all because of what you''ve forced me


    into. One instance of betrayal and disgust was enough, but if you repeatedly make me feel disgusted, I


    will repay you in your own coin."


    She paused and added, "Grayson is skilled in bed."


    Jackson was on the verge of going crazy.


    He went on a rampage at the police station, and was held overnight.


    Madelyn took Vivian and got into the car.


    After settling down, she handed a bottle of water to Vivian and asked, "Are you okay?"


    Inside the car, with the headlights on, it was evident that Vivian looked pale.


    She sought revenge with Grayson against Jackson, and both ended up getting hurt, but she had no


    regrets.


    Vivian softly said, "There''s no turning back at this point, but I won''t initiate the breakup. I won''t let


    Elizabeth, that despicable bitch, have it easy."


    Their situation was tooplicated, and Madelyn didn''t know how to advise them.


    She gently asked, "What about Grayson? What does he say?"


    Vivian''s eyes turned slightly red.


    "If it were before, I could have married into the Wyatt family, but now it''s impossible for me and him!


    The Wyatt family is a prominent and influential family, how could they allow Grayson to marry someone


    like me?"


    Madelyn touched her face.


    "I think you''re amazing! At least listening to you curse someone is entertaining."


    Vivian smiled.


    "You little troublemaker!"


    "I''ll tell you, Grayson is quite something in bed. I''ve had several satisfying moments."


    ...


    As she continued talking, the conversation gradually turned into adult content, making Madelyn feel the


    need to close the car window.


    If anyone heard them, it would be disastrous!


    Just then, a refined voice came from outside the car window, with a hint of amusement.


    "Are you Ms. Green and Ms. White? I''m Bryson, Grayson''s cousin."


    Madelyn nced at Vivian.


    Oh, no!


    This Bryson probably overheard everything...


    Bryson is refined and gentle. Despite being in his early 30s, he already teaches at a university and


    holds the position of vice dean.


    His gazended on Madelyn, slightly captivated, as he spoke in a very gentle tone, "I heard you talking


    about Grayson, so I wanted to ask what you were discussing."

 Chapter 148 Heartbroken on Christmas Eve

    Chapter 148 Heartbroken on Christmas Eve


    Chapter 148 Heartbroken on Christmas Eve


    Madelyn''s face was burning.


    Whenever she felt shy, her cheeks would turn rosy, which was quite charming.


    Bryson stared at her intently.


    Madelyn tried to maintain a calm tone, "Grayson left earlier."


    Bryson nodded.


    He continued looking at Madelyn and said, "My car is being serviced, so I took a taxi here. Ms. Green,


    would you mind giving me a ride?"


    Madelyn hesitated.


    The man had a perfect temperament, but does he always act so sociable?


    It was their first meeting, and he was already asking her for a ride home.


    Madelyn was innocent, but Vivian could clearly sense something fishy. Ah, Grayson''s cousin obviously


    had intentions of pursuing Madelyn.


    She had heard about Bryson before.


    In the Wyatt family, he was known for being upright gentlemen. He was handsome, well-educated, and


    had high standards.


    Unexpectedly, he had fallen in love at first sight with Maddie!


    Vivian was currently going through some heartache, yet she was busy scheming for Madelyn.


    She shifted her position slightly and smiled coquettishly, "Madelyn, he''s Grayson''s cousin. If it''s


    convenient for you, why don''t you give him a ride? Consider it a favor to me!"


    Madelyn couldn''t refuse now.


    She smiled lightly and said to Bryson, "Sure! Send me the address."


    Bryson hadn''t dated much, but that didn''t mean he didn''t know how to. He easily added Madelyn as


    WhatsApp friend and sent her his address.


    Madelyn was quite surprised. Bryson lived close to her.


    She gestured for Bryson to get in the car and started the engine.


    On the way, Vivian did all the talking.


    Bryson was quite respectful to Grayson''s "lover", and there is no hint of disrespect in his words. This


    made Madelyn somewhat like him.


    When they arrived, Bryson got out of the car.


    He walked up to the driver''s side and lightly tapped on the car window.


    Madelyn rolled it down...


    Bryson smiled, "Thank you, Ms. Green! I''ll treat you to dinner another day."


    He raised his phone slightly.


    Madelyn smiled and agreed, but she thought Bryson was just being polite. They had only met by


    chance, and they might not see each other again.


    Bryson had a meaningful look and left.


    When Madelyn started the car again, Vivian yawned, "I''m tired."


    She tilted her head andined, "How long has it been since Grayson touched a woman? He''s


    driving me crazy."


    Madelyn''s face flushed.


    Vivian was too straightforward...


    Later on, Jackson reluctantly gave in and tried to move on from that incident.


    Vivian stayed with Madelyn for a week and then went back home.


    asionally, Madelyn heard that Vivian and Grayson hadn''t ended things between them and were still


    in contact. She heard that they even went to Hong Kong and had a great time for a week.


    Vivian looked happy and radiant.


    Madelyn could only sigh.


    She was still limited to the apartment, the music studio, and home... Life is quite boring!


    Madelyn gradually got used to this boredom.


    On Christmas Eve, Madelyn finished work at six o''clock. The streets were filled with festive


    atmosphere, and young couples were everywhere.


    At times like this, Madelyn couldn''t help but think it was time for her to start dating someone.


    Cam knew about her breakup with Benjamin and had hinted a few times, trying to introduce


    someone to her. But Madelyn refused.


    Speaking of Cam, her phone rang.


    Cam brought up the topic again on the phone, "Madelyn, meet him. He''s the vice dean of a


    university, and he has really good conditions. I''ve seen him before, and he looks handsome and


    decent! After the New Year, you''ll be twenty-five. You should take this seriously!"


    Madelyn looked up at the Christmas lights...


    They twinkled and were very cute.


    She smiled lightly, "Okay! I''ll meet him another day."


    Cam chuckled.


    "What another day! He wants to spend Christmas Eve with you."


    Madelyn was surprised.


    After thinking for a while, she finally agreed, "Alright, Cam, give me his WhatsApp."


    ...


    "No need!"


    Madelyn was shocked and turned around.


    She saw Bryson.


    On this Christmas winter night, he wore a white sweater and a gray coat over it.


    He stood at a height of 185 cm, looking refined and handsome.


    He was dazzling.


    Madelyn gazed at him and whispered to Cam, "I''ve met him."


    Cam happily hung up the phone.


    "That child from the Wyatt family is very suitable for Madelyn!"


    ...


    Madelyn hung up the phone.


    She raised her phone lightly, "Professor Wyatt?"


    Bryson replied confidently, "Yes, it''s me! From now on, can I call you... Madelyn?"


    Madelyn didn''t object.


    Bryson walked alongside her and said in a casual tone, "There''s a Mexican restaurant up ahead. Their


    turkey legs and tequ are excellent. Don''t worry about drunk driving, I''ll have a driver pick us up."


    Madelyn suddenly stopped in her tracks.


    "Bryson,st time, did you drive there?"


    Bryson didn''t deny it.


    He smiled and said, "I didn''t know how to approach you, so I came up with ame excuse. I didn''t


    expect you to see through it so quickly."


    He was gentle and considerate towards women.


    After talking to him for a while, Madelyn feltfortable. She thought that this kind of men might be


    suitable for her. She was willing to give it a try, maybe they could be together.


    Madelyn looked ahead and spoke softly.


    "Then, let''s... go and try it."


    Bryson''s gaze deepened, he didn''t do anything to her, but there was joy in his eyes.


    ...


    A golden Bentley slowly drove by.


    Madelyn didn''t notice.


    But Benjamin in the car saw Madelyn with Bryson.


    The way Bryson looked at Madelyn was very gentle.


    It was cold outside, and when Madelyn rubbed her hands, Bryson took off his own scarf and put it


    around her.


    Benjamin suddenly stopped the car.


    He turned the car around and quietly watched the couple walking side by side. In this situation, he


    couldn''t help but admit -


    Bryson and Madelyn were dating.


    With this thought, Benjamin''s face turned cold!


    ...


    Madelyn had dinner with Bryson, and Bryson suggested going to see a movie.


    But Madelyn felt it was too fast, so they ended up going to an art exhibition. Unexpectedly, the


    Exhibition Center was overcrowded on Christmas Eve, and Madelyn was almost squeezed out of


    shape due to her slim figure.


    Bryson smiled as he pulled her into his arms...


    Madelyn was startled, but she didn''t refuse.


    When they came out of the Exhibition Center, Bryson held Madelyn''s hand and found a ce with


    fewer people.


    Tonight was Christmas Eve, and fireworks were constantly blooming in the sky above the city.


    Bryson gazed at Madelyn.


    He really liked her. It was love at first sight.


    He wanted to kiss her, but was afraid of being too sudden, so he restrained himself and kissed her


    forehead lightly.


    "Madelyn, I had a wonderful time tonight."


    Madelyn also felt good. This date may not be passionate enough, but it was what she wanted... Amidst


    the crowd, Bryson gently hugged her.


    Madelyn leaned lightly on his shoulder.


    Bryson smelled really nice, with a faint ink scent, not as strong and overwhelming as that person who


    could engulf her at any moment...


    She thought, "let it be like this!"


    "This is good!"


    She shouldpletely forget about Benjamin and start anew.


    The sky was filled with fireworks.


    Madelyn gently hugged Bryson, epting his pursuit...


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Not far away.


    Benjamin stood among the crowd.


    He watched Madelyn embracing Bryson, watched her look up and smile, watched her voluntarily hold


    onto Bryson''s waist.


    These were all meant to belong to him.


    Is she now taking them all back and giving them to another man?


    Will she... marry Bryson?


    And not long after, will she ept his gift on their wedding day and say, "Thank you foring, Mr.


    rk"?

 Chapter 149 Not Get Used to Her Leaving

    Chapter 149 Not Get Used to Her Leaving


    Chapter 149 Not Get Used to Her Leaving


    Thinking about it, Benjamin couldn''t bear it.


    But he wasn''t a reckless boy anymore, and he couldn''t do irrational things just because Madelyn was


    dating Bryson.


    For example, he couldn''t intervene and pull them apart, or impulsively confess his feelings to Madelyn,


    and say he wants to marry her.


    He told himself that he couldn''t give her what she wanted!


    He thought that it was a normal thing for him and Madelyn to separate. Even though he still had


    feelings for her when he saw her a few days ago, he didn''t think he couldn''t live without her by his side.


    However, when he discovered that she might belong to someone else.


    It was a huge blow to him!


    Benjamin''s heart was experiencing changes it had never experienced before, and at this moment, he


    couldn''t figure out what he really wanted!


    If it was Madelyn''s body, there were certainly others who were more beautiful and had better figures


    than her.


    As forpanionship, Benjamin was nevercking inpany. With his outstanding family


    background and appearance, many girls were eager to please him... except for Madelyn. She either


    wanted to marry him, or she left without hesitation.


    Fireworks filled the sky...


    Benjamin looked up, feeling incredibly bitter.


    And the couple who were embracing had long disappeared!


    Where did they go?


    The atmosphere tonight was so good, could they have gone directly to a hotel... and made love?


    Benjamin''s heart ached, and he couldn''t breathe!


    ...


    After Madelyn finished viewing the art exhibition, Bryson gentlemanly escorted her home.


    He could tell that Madelyn wasn''t that into him. She did have some affection for him, but it was mostly


    because of his external conditions.


    Madelyn didn''t feel any sparks.


    But Bryson wasn''t discouraged. He gracefully said goodbye to her and made ns for the next time.


    The night was thick.


    At the entrance of the apartment building, Madelyn bid farewell to Bryson.


    The streetlights cast their elongated shadows. Bryson liked Madelyn very much. He said a lot... and in


    the end, heughed, "Go upstairs! Otherwise, I''ll talk until dawn."


    Madelyn nodded.


    She took off her scarf and handed it back to him.


    Bryson didn''t ept it. There was depth in his elegant face.


    "In the near future... Madelyn, I hope you''ll invite me upstairs to sit for a while."


    This is an invitation from an adult man. With a little careful consideration, one can easily understand.


    Madelyn was no longer a young girl.


    She didn''t say yes, nor did she say no.


    She smiled slightly, "Let''s see how things go!"


    Bryson smiled and walked backwards, waving at her. "Ms. Green, goodnight."


    He opened the car door and got in.


    Madelyn waved back.


    She thought that tonight''s date was pleasant, and someone with Bryson''s temperament was suitable


    for her.


    Madelyn was in a good mood.


    She took a bath, wrapped herself in a fragrant towel, and when she came out, she received a


    WhatsApp message from Bryson.


    He sent a postcard.


    It was probably taken at the entrance of his mansion, with fireworks lighting up the night sky, giving off


    a strong Christmas atmosphere.


    Madelyn smiled softly.


    She was about to reply when her phone rang...


    The caller was Mr. rk.


    After considering for a moment, Madelyn answered, but there was a long silence on the other end of


    the line.


    Finally, Madelyn couldn''t help but speak, "Mr. rk?"


    Benjamin''s voice was hoarse, "Madelyn, how have you beentely?"


    Madelyn pondered. Benjamin wasn''t the kind of person who was overbearing and nosy, so why did he


    suddenly be so caring? But because he helped her father win thewsuit, she still replied in a


    calm voice, "Hmm... I''m fine."


    "Where did you spend Christmas Eve today? Did you have a good time?"


    Madelyn wasn''t foolish.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    By asking this, Benjamin must have known something.


    She remained silent for a moment and whispered, "I had a good time!"


    "Do you have a boyfriend?"


    ...


    He was practically interrogating a prisoner. After contemting for a while, Madelyn finally said, "Yes! I


    do have a boyfriend."


    "What kind of person is he? Is he good-looking? What does he do for a living?"


    Madelyn couldn''t stand it anymore.


    She deliberately lowered her voice, "Benjamin, we''re done!"


    "So?"


    "So, my personal matters are none of your concern anymore! If you must know, then I''ll tell you that I


    n to get along well with him. He''s a very nice person and good-looking too."


    ...


    After saying it, she regretted it a little bit.


    She''s bothering with Benjamin about what?


    Over there, Benjamin fell silent for a while before asking softly, "Is Bryson better looking than me?"


    After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone directly.


    ...


    Madelyn blinked gently, unable to believe what she had heard.


    Sure enough, Benjamin knew, and he pretended to go around in circles with her.


    To hell with him!


    Benjamin''s actions upset Madelyn, and her enthusiasm for chatting with Bryson diminished.


    Over there, Benjamin''s mood worsened.


    In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the top-floor t, there was a magnificent night view of Gredax.


    After taking a shower, Benjamin''s hair was still wet. He put on a loosely open ck bathrobe, revealing


    his chest.


    He leaned against the bar counter, staring absentmindedly at the night view.


    After breaking up with Madelyn, he wanted to forget about her, but his t was filled with the remnants


    of Madelyn''s presence.


    In the closet, her bathrobe hung beside his.


    The two pairs of couple slippers she bought were still unopened.


    Every time he opened the essory cab, he could see the jewelry he bought for her neatly


    arranged in velvet boxes...


    She didn''t take any of these with her!


    They served as reminders that there was once a woman who had upied his life, perhaps even his


    body and mind.


    Lately, Benjamin began suffering from insomnia.


    Even though he was exhausted from work, he couldn''t fall asleep at night...


    Sometimes, in the early morning, he would roll over and thought that Madelyn was still there. He


    wanted to give her a good morning kiss or engage in passionate intimacy.


    But no...


    All he could embrace was a pillow.


    On his spacious bed, he couldn''t find anything to touch.


    Benjamin finished his ss of red wine, ending this cold Christmas Eve. He walked into the bedroom,


    which was still eerily empty.


    Hey there for a while, but eventually got up and went to the bathroom.


    Momentster, water sshed down.


    Amidst the sound of water, asional suppressed gasps from a man could be heard...


    Afterward, Benjamin returned to bed with a mist of steam surrounding him.


    He turned off the light but felt even emptier.


    In the dead of night, his body was more honest than he was.


    He missed Madelyn. He missed her body. It had been almost a month since theyst made love...


    Early morning.


    The maid went back to work and came over to clean the house and make breakfast.


    Benjamin emerged from the bedroom.


    The maid, unaware that Madelyn had moved out, naturally asked, "Is Ms. Green awake?"


    Benjamin straightened his tie.


    He sat down at the dining table and took a sip of coffee before saying in a low voice, "We broke up!


    She has moved out."


    The maid realized she had said something wrong and quickly apologized.


    Benjamin read the morning newspaper. "Just be more careful with your words in the future," he added.


    He paused for a moment, looking at the maid. "Today, tidy up the bedroom. Pack Ms. Green''s clothes


    in a bag. The jewelry... Call Paisley toe and handle it."


    The maid understood from his words that it was a definitive breakup.


    She felt sad.


    Previously, it seemed that Mr. rk treated Ms. Green really well. Sometimes, even early in the


    morning, they would engage in intimate activities.


    How could... things change so suddenly?


    After hesitating for a moment, the maid asked, "What should I do with the packed clothes? Should I just


    throw them away?"

    Chapter 150 Frustrated When Seeing Another Man Blow-dry Her Hair


    Benjamin was taken aback.


    "Let''s put that aside for now! I haven''t made up my mind."


    The maid chimed in again, "What about the piano? The one you gave to Ms. Green, called Louis XII? I


    heard it''s very expensive! Mr. rk, you don''t y the piano anyway. Why not let Paisley sell it?"


    Benjamin was speechless.


    "That piano is called Morningdew."


    The maid pouted, not understanding any of this.


    Benjamin looked at the piano and said softly after a moment, "Let''s put that aside for now!"


    The maid didn''t ask any further.


    Heh!


    Mr. rk ultimately couldn''t bring himself to throw away Ms. Green''s belongings, and it was obvious


    that he hadn''t moved on. From her experience as someone who had been through it, she could tell that


    before long, Mr. rk would probably cry and beg for getting back together.


    After understanding this, The maid turned around and went to do her work.


    But Benjamin, holding a cup of coffee, was lost in his thoughts...


    ...


    The following week.


    Benjamin developed a bad habit. He would always follow Madelyn after work, bumping into her


    unexpectedly.


    Sometimes, it would be a ce Madelyn liked to visit.


    Other times, it would be music bars and restaurants that Bryson liked to go to.


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin wasn''t close with Bryson. Their families had some connections, and they were merely


    nodding acquaintances.


    Bryson and Benjamin came from different circles, so Bryson was unaware of the earlier rtionship


    between Benjamin and Madelyn. However, as he encountered Benjamin frequently, anyone who was


    notpletely nonchnt would inevitably sense something unusual.


    Bryson asked Madelyn once.


    Madelyn was slightly stunned because she thought Bryson already knew it.


    But aftering to her senses, she admitted it. She said that she did have a rtionship with


    Benjamin...


    After saying that, she looked at Bryson.


    If Bryson couldn''t ept it, she wouldn''t force it, as some men did care deeply about such matters.


    At that moment, Bryson didn''t say anything.


    However, when he was driving her home, he expressed his feelings, "Madelyn, if Benjamines back


    to you, would you ept him again?"


    A man understood another man the best.


    It was widely known that Benjamin wasn''t interested in marriage.


    Bryson thought their breakup was probably due to this reason.


    But recently, Benjamin had been hanging around Madelyn. Bryson thought that a proud man like


    Benjamin was usually unable to set aside his pride and desired for the woman to return to his side on


    her own initiative.


    He wanted to know if Madelyn woulde back to him...


    After Bryson asked, he stared at Madelyn with an intense gaze.


    Madelyn leaned back.


    She turned her head to look at Bryson. She had been getting along well with him these past few days.


    Although their rtionship wasn''t so passionate, it was sweet. Aside from the kiss on her forehead on


    Christmas Eve, he hadn''t crossed any boundaries.


    She knew that Bryson cherished her.


    And she also cherished this rtionship and wanted to make it work!


    After a long silence, Madelyn spoke softly.


    "Bryson, I''m serious about our rtionship."


    Bryson, who had been on edge, felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders. No one could tell how


    nervous he had been just moments ago. He knew he was outstanding, with a good background and


    appearance, but he also knew thatpared to Benjamin, he seemed a bit dull.


    Benjamin''s status and charisma were undeniable.


    Magazines even called Benjamin a "walking hormone"!


    Bryson''s self-confidence wavered a bit!


    But Madelyn''s wordsforted him.


    He leaned in and kissed Madelyn''s cheek, his voice slightly hoarse, "It''s only nine o''clock. Can you


    invite me upstairs?"


    A child had gotten chocte on her hair at the restaurant earlier.


    Madelyn apologized with a smile, "I have to wash my hair. I may not be able to make you coffee."


    Bryson looked at her.


    "I''m noting up for coffee. Can I help you blow-dry your hair?"


    Madelyn had no reason to refuse.


    She had been on several dates with Bryson and was seriously involved with him. If she didn''t allow him


    into her t, it would be impolite.


    She smiled faintly. "Then I''ll brew the coffee before washing my hair."


    Bryson also smiled lightly.


    In fact, Madelyn hadn''t noticed that during their dates, she had always been too reserved...


    ...


    Madelyn invited Bryson to her small t.


    It was on the fourth floor, not veryrge, about fifty square meters.


    But the decoration andyout were nice and quite cozy...


    Madelyn brewed a cup of coffee for Bryson and went to the bathroom to wash her hair. When she


    came out, she saw Bryson standing by the window, holding the cup of coffee, but she didn''t know what


    he was looking at.


    Madelyn towel-dried her hair. "What are you looking at?"


    Bryson''s gaze fell on the gold-colored Bentley parked downstairs. When he heard Madelyn approach,


    he raised the coffee cup in his hand. "The coffee is good."


    "It''s Yunnan coffee beans."


    Bryson smirked, "Come here! I''ll blow-dry your hair for you."


    Madelyn didn''t hesitate.


    She handed him the hairdryer and turned her back to him, so she didn''t see Benjamin downstairs...


    Bryson was gentle in his movements.


    And very respectful.


    After drying her hair, he softly embraced Madelyn from behind. "I want to stay overnight."


    Madelyn''s body stiffened slightly.


    She gently broke free and whispered, "Bryson, I don''t want to move so fast."


    Bryson smiled bitterly.


    He appreciated Madelyn''s rationality, but when a girl was too rational in a rtionship, it only meant


    that she was not emotionally invested enough or crazy about the man.


    She had no desire for him, not even a hint of sexual desire.


    Bryson sat for a while and then left.


    As he went downstairs, he saw Benjamin''s Bentley was still there. The window was rolled down, and


    Benjamin rested his elbow on it, smoking.


    Just by his posture and profile, Bryson couldn''t help but admire him.


    Bryson politely nodded at him.


    Benjamin turned to the side, silently watching him...


    The two men understood each other without a word.


    After a while, Benjamin chuckled and nodded as well.


    Before Bryson could get in the car, Benjamin put the cigarette between his lips, stepped on the gas


    pedal, and left first.


    Bryson watched the taillights, feeling indescribablyplicated.


    ...


    Benjamin drove back to his t.


    He took off his coat and casually threw it on the sofa before sitting in front of the piano.


    His slender fingersnded on the ck and white keys, and he closed his eyes and yed "Moonlight


    Sonata," the piece Madelyn yed most frequently when she was there.


    Benjamin could y the piano, though not proficiently.


    He had never mentioned it to Madelyn because he didn''t think it was necessary.


    His n had always been to have a rtionship with her, maybe for a year or two, and then part ways


    gracefully, providing her with generouspensation.


    But they ended in less than two months.


    Madelyn didn''t ask for hispensation. She only wanted to leave him and start a new life.


    She seemed happy and content with Bryson.


    It had been ten days...


    Madelyn and Bryson had been dating for ten days. Bryson had already be an integral part of her


    life. Would it be long before they slept together, before... they made love?


    The piano keys made a dull sound!


    Benjamin quietly looked at the Morningdew.


    He remembered the past.


    He recalled the first time he and Madelyn made love. He gave her the Morningdew, and she rearranged


    this t, filled with joy like a newlywed wife.


    Little did she know, it was just a way for a man of status to keep a girl.


    Pamper her and please her.


    And in return, receive the utmost sensory and physical pleasure.


    After all, it would feel much more awesome when there were emotions involved in the sex. For


    example, when she was beneath him and looking at him with her eyes full of admiration, Benjamin was


    extremely turned on...


    Would she look at Bryson the same way in the future?


    No, absolutely not!


    He wouldn''t allow it!


    Ten days was Benjamin''s limit of patience...

 Chapter 151 Benjamin, I Dont Want You!

    Chapter 151 Benjamin, I Don''t Want You!


    Chapter 151 Benjamin, I Don''t Want You!


    The next day, Madelyn finished work early. There was a cultural banquet tonight, and both she and


    Bryson received invitations, agreeing to meet at the hotel.


    The receptionist smiled. "Ms. Green, you look beautiful today!"


    Madelyn was in a good mood. She entered the elevator but froze as soon as she stepped inside.


    Benjamin was there. He leaned against the elevator wall, his face indifferent, as if he had been waiting


    for a while.


    Madelyn instinctively wanted to leave, but Benjamin acted faster. With a bang...


    Her body was forced against the elevator wall. Madelyn dared not move because Benjamin''s arm was


    blocking her chest, and any movement would be like offering herself to be yed with by him.


    She could only stare at him and say, "Mr. rk, what is this supposed to be?"


    Benjamin''s gaze was intense. "Are you dressed like this to attend the banquet? With Bryson?"


    Madelyn restrained her anger as much as possible. "Mr. rk, we''ve already broken up. It''s my


    freedom to attend the banquet with whomever I want to be in a rtionship with."


    Benjamin let go of Madelyn and took a step back. "Do you like him? Were you as happy with him as we


    were?"


    "Madelyn, I don''t believe you''ve forgotten about me!"


    ...


    Madelyn''s eyes turned red. She did indeed spend a very sweet time with Benjamin, and during that


    period, she was immersed in the charm of a mature man. Fame and desire brought her great


    excitement.


    Madelyn thought that all girls couldn''t resist such a gentle man and would easily fall in love with


    Benjamin.


    He never gave up, only wanting her body. When she asked if he loved her, he said, "Madelyn, I''m sorry,


    I can''t give you what you want!"


    In fact, it wasn''t he couldn''t give his love. He didn''t want to give!


    Madelyn felt extremely embarrassed. "Benjamin, it''s you who doesn''t want me. Is there any point in


    saying these things now?"


    The elevator made a low, heavy sound as it descended. Time felt long and unbearable. After a while,


    Benjamin spoke, his voice hoarse and unrecognizable.


    "Madelyn, I want you!"


    Madelyn suddenly looked up, staring at him intensely.


    Benjamin said again, "I want you!"


    Madelyn''s face turned pale. She couldn''t feel happy but rather felt sad.


    "Benjamin... You''re saying you want me now just because I''m with Bryson! If I hadn''t started dating him,


    or if I were still single, you would only want to y truth or dare with me in some private room or want


    to meet me when you feel like it!"


    Madelyn''s fair nose turned pink. Her voice became even sadder. "You don''t like me. It''s just your ego at


    work."


    Coincidentally, the elevator door opened.


    Madelyn walked out directly. She walked fast, as if she were avoiding something...


    It had been some time since she broke up with Benjamin, but he was her first man after all, and that


    short period of just over a month was so vivid.


    Every night, she pleaded in the master bedroom...


    How could she easily forget?


    Madelyn got into her car, and her hands holding the steering wheel trembled.


    At that moment, she hated Benjamin more than when he said he couldn''t give!


    What was he ying at?


    Saying he didn''t want her and then wanting her when he was nostalgic...


    What was she to him?


    What!?


    But there was no moment that made her realize more clearly than now that she still liked Benjamin!


    Madelyn leaned back in her seat, feeling weak all over.


    The car door opened.


    Benjamin stood outside the car, and in a hoarse voice, he said, "Madelyn, I''m sorry!"


    He wanted to touch her.


    But she reflexively pped him in the face...


    A p.


    They both froze.


    Madelyn covered her hot palm and apologized softly, "Mr. rk, I''m sorry."


    Benjamin didn''t care about his own face. He still held onto the car door and deliberately lowered his


    voice. "You''re not in a condition to drive right now. I''ll take you there."


    How could Madelyn agree?


    They hesitated for a while, and Benjamin used some force to pull Madelyn out and also took her coat in


    passing.


    She wore a light purple dress inside her coat, with a slender waist.


    Beautiful.


    Benjamin nced at her for a few seconds, then helped her put on the coat and fastened each button.


    "If you don''t want me to take you, then take a taxi!


    "Don''t drive."


    ...


    Madelyn was not in a good state, and he felt a bit sorry for her. At the same time, as a mature man, he


    knew that Madelyn still had feelings for him.


    At least for now, Bryson hadn''t surpassed him.


    That was why Bryson didn''t stay in her apartmentst night.


    Benjamin hailed a taxi. He escorted Madelyn into the car and, just as the car door was about to close,


    he gently said, "Have fun."


    ...


    Actually, he had nned to go too.


    As the top of thepetitive males, he was going to confront Bryson head-on.


    But that would embarrass Madelyn.


    So Benjamin suppressed his intentions and decided to take it slow...


    Madelyn sat in the backseat of the taxi.


    Crying hysterically...


    Madelyn didn''t want to cry because of Benjamin, as it wasn''t worth it, but he had the ability to make her


    cry.

    The taxi driver was quite talkative...


    "Had a fight with your boyfriend?


    "Hey! That guy just now was really good-looking, and he seemed rich too.


    "Don''t cry, girl! This man is just a jerk... If you give him the cold shoulder, he''ll immediately put away


    that undeserved sense of superiority ande crawling to you like a dog! Don''t doubt it, I was young


    once too..."


    ...


    Madelyn was at a loss for words, caught betweenughing and crying from what she heard. She wiped


    away her tears and silently looked out of the car window.


    It took her half an hour to remove Benjamin''s impact on her, and then she had a perfect evening.


    Madelyn arrived at the banquet hall.


    Bryson hadn''t arrived yet, but she did see Grayson with Vivian.


    They were dressed as a couple, hugging and dancing...


    Vivian naturally attracted attention due to her status, and there were whispers and pointing fingers,


    while Grayson was known for his yboy reputation in Gredax.


    Madelyn was worried that Vivian would cause trouble.


    She stood in a corner of the banquet hall for a while when her phone rang.


    It was Grayson calling.


    He apologized over the phone, saying that he might not be able to make it tonight due to some


    unexpected situation at home.


    Madelyn had mixed feelings, thinking that it was just as well not to see him tonight.


    After hanging up the phone, Madelyn was about to tell Vivian that they should leave early. But as she


    looked up, a fight broke out in the middle of the dance floor.


    The main participants were Grayson and Jackson.


    Jackson hade over wearing casual clothes, clearly appearing to havee on a whim. He and


    Grayson were jealous of each other, and they started fighting!


    Grayson had training and was physically strong, while Jackson was no match for him.


    It didn''t take long for Jackson to be beaten up, blood sttering everywhere.


    Women in the banquet hall screamed.


    And the female protagonist, Vivian, just stood there coldly, as if Jackson wasn''t her husband at all!


    This banquet was hosted by the leading figures of the Gredax literary world.


    The situation had escted to such an extent that even the hotel security had been mobilized.


    Grayson gained fame through the fight with Jackson.


    The incident made a big ssh, dominating the headlines of Gredax, and it couldn''t be suppressed...


    Vivian''s reputation was in ruins.

    Chapter 152 Humiliate me? I''ll fight back!


    Late at night.


    Madelyn returned to the apartment with Vivian.


    After a long night, although they were exhausted, they couldn''t sleep.


    Madelyn poured a cup of hot cocoa for Vivian.


    She wanted to console her but didn''t know how to start...


    Vivian sat on the couch, holding the hot cocoa absentmindedly. After a while, she looked up and asked


    softly, "Madelyn, do you think I''m cheap?"


    Madelyn shook her head. "Never!"


    She knew all too well the grievances Vivian had endured from beginning to end.


    Vivian lowered her gaze.


    Tears fell into the cup, drop by drop...


    She had truly loved Jackson.


    Even though he was a scumbag, she had genuinely loved him.


    Trembling, Vivian said with a shaky voice, "I want to smoke! Madelyn... I want a cigarette."


    Madelyn took out a pack of cigarettes from Vivian''s handbag. Vivian took one and held it with trembling


    hands, then lit it and took a deep breath before she mustered the courage to continue.


    "Elizabeth had an amniocentesis. It''s a boy in her womb. Jackson''s parents took her into their house,


    serving her several meals a day and even having the servants call her ''Madam.''"


    Vivian looked at Madelyn. "Madelyn, I want a divorce."


    Madelyn agreed.


    However, Madelyn was afraid that Jackson wouldn''t let go just like that when she saw him.


    Vivianughed at herself.


    "Do you think Jackson has ever cared for me?"


    "No, he''s afraid that something might happen to Elizabeth''s pregnancy."


    "If he divorce me for the sake of that belly but Elizabeth fails to deliver, then Jackson will be a


    ...


    Madelyn was stunned.


    Vivian finished smoking a cigarette and spoke softly, "Madelyn, I''m afraid my affair with Grayson will


    affect you! Grayson told me that you get along well with Bryson... but Bryson''s mother is not easy to


    deal with."


    Madelyn patted her hand.


    "Vivian, let''s not talk about that."


    But deep down, Madelyn had a vague feeling.


    Bryson stood her up tonight, and it seemed to be rted to Grayson and Vivian''s situation. However,


    even so, she wouldn''t me Vivian in the slightest. When she was going through the most difficult time,


    Vivian did everything she could to help her.


    That night, the two girls slept on the same bed.


    They both had concerns and couldn''t sleep well.


    Early in the morning, Jackson arrived. He stood outside the door, his eyes bloodshot.


    "Vivian is here, right?"


    Madelyn responded with a soft "Hmm" and let him in through the side door.


    She calmly poured a ss of water for Jackson and ced it on the coffee table. "I''ll call Vivian out.


    You two should talk it out."


    Madelyn looked at them peacefully.


    Jackson was quite surprised and hesitated before asking, "How is she?"


    Madelyn smiled faintly, "Your parents have taken Elizabeth into their house, and you''re asking about


    Vivian? Jackson... How many people envied your marriage back then? Now, there are just as many


    people disappointed."


    Jackson touched his nose, feeling ufortable. He said, "I was just fooling around. Vivian was also


    with Grayson..."


    Madelyn didn''t say anything more.


    She went into the room and called Vivian, "You two talk. See what he wants."


    After a moment, Vivian came out.


    When the husband and wife saw each other, it was different from before.


    Perhaps the previous night''s argument had drained their energy, and today, they had no more strength


    for aggression. Vivian sat across from Jackson, a bit absent-minded, and said, "Let''s get a divorce."


    Jackson stared at her.


    After a while, he said, "My parents took Elizabeth in without my consent! I didn''t mean it, Vivian... You''ll


    always be my wife! As long as you break things off with Grayson, we can still be like before."


    Vivian looked out of the window absentmindedly.


    Her voice was distant, "Did your parents also make that childe to the world?"


    Jackson fell silent.


    Vivian did mean a lot to him, but having a son to carry on the family name was also important.


    Elizabeth was currently carrying the child of their lineage, being treated like a queen by his parents. No


    one could shake her position.


    Seeing his expression, Vivian suddenlyughed.


    She said, "Jackson, how blind was I to be with you? Look at you, coward. Let me be honest with you,


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    ever since I got involved with Grayson, I no longer care about being your pathetic rightful wife. Give


    that title to whomever you want."


    Jackson didn''t want to insist.


    She had already been with Grayson, and his parents had scolded him to no end. It was pointless to


    plead with her.


    "If you want a divorce... Fine!


    "But you''re at fault, so you''ll get nothing!


    "Also, let''s finalize the procedures in six months. By then, when Elizabeth gives birth to the child, I can


    seamlessly register my son."


    ...


    Vivian chuckled in anger. She was the one at fault?


    But she had no energy left to argue with him. She just wanted to end this marriage.


    She nodded easily, which made Jackson a bit ufortable.


    "Um... You can stay in the house."


    "No need, I''m moving out today!"


    Vivian unexpectedly showed determination.


    Jackson put a cigarette to his lips and forgot to light it for a long time...


    Suddenly, he felt a little sad.


    He truly loved Vivian.


    When Madelyn and the others were still growing up, Vivian had already blossomed like a white rose,


    exuding charm... He had pursued her for a long time before winning her over.


    Elizabeth was different.


    From beginning to end, Elizabeth was a woman at his control. For the sake of Elizabeth, he had fought


    with Vivian to the point of divorce...


    Jackson suddenly couldn''t bear to look at Vivian.


    He couldn''t bear to see himself and Vivian reach this point, couldn''t bear Vivian''s hatred for him, and


    her turning to Grayson''s embrace...


    ...


    It took Madelyn two days to help Vivian find a new house and move out.


    Madelyn wanted Vivian to stay with her, but Vivian said they were both adults with their own lives.


    Madelyn thought that perhaps Grayson would go to Vivian''s ce to spend the night.


    Vivian noticed her thoughts.


    She teased, "Women also have physical needs, and Grayson is great in bed. He makes me much


    happier than Jackson ever did!"


    Madelyn blushed upon hearing that.


    Vivian deliberately asked, "What about you and Bryson... Have you...?"


    "No!"


    Madelyn and Bryson hadn''t even kissed. She didn''t know where the problemy between them, but


    their rtionship was pure and tonic.


    Thinking of Bryson, Madelyn realized he hadn''t contacted her in the past couple of days.


    She had a vague idea!


    Just as she was thinking, her phone rang. It was an unknown number.


    Madelyn went outside to answer the call, and on the other end was a dignified older woman.


    "Ms. Green, I''m Bryson''s mother. I''d like to meet with you."


    ...


    Half an hourter.


    Madelyn entered a high-end caf¨¦ and immediately spotted an elegant woman sitting near the window.


    Her facial features ... bore some resemnce to Bryson''s.


    Madelyn walked over and sat down, giving a faint smile. "Are you Bryson''s mother?"


    Felicity took off her sunsses.


    She sternly scrutinized Madelyn from head to toe. Madelyn had experienced a lot and could maintain


    herposure.


    After a while, Felicity spoke with a touch of arrogance.


    "Ms. Green, you''re even more beautiful than I imagined! No wonder Bryson fell for you at first sight and


    kept mentioning that I should meet you! Originally... You''re my old ssmate''s stepdaughter, and I


    thought I knew your past. But these past few days, I learned that Ms. Green leads quite an exciting


    private life."


    Madelyn remainedposed. "Please go on."


    Felicity raised her chin proudly.


    "Bryson''s cousin Grayson is involved with some unsavory woman, and I heard she hasn''t even


    finalized her divorce. How could someone from the prestigious Wyatt family marry such a woman? And


    I heard that Ms. Green, who was not only ssmates but also close friends with Miss Vivian, had a


    previous rtionship with someone from the rk family, didn''t you?


    "Ms. Green, I''m deeply concerned that Bryson might follow in Grayson''s footsteps."


    "So, Ms. Green, if you want to be with Bryson, the first thing you need to do is cut ties with that Miss


    Vivian. Also... Ms. Green should keep your distance from the rk family''s young son. After all, gossip


    can be dreadful! It would be best if you went abroad for a while, until people forget about your past.


    Then I will consider your marriage to Bryson."


    ...


    After she finished speaking, she elegantly took a sip of her coffee.


    She thought, "smart girls know how to make choices!"


    But Madelyn just chuckled.


    "Thank you for your concern! But I can''t do that!


    "Not only will I not cut ties with Vivian, but I also intend to be with her for the rest of my life... As for my


    rtionship with Benjamin, I don''t think there''s anything shameful about it! Mrs. Wyatt, if you''re


    interested, feel free to investigate. I had a four-year rtionship before... And he happened to be a son-


    inw of the rk family! How about that... Intriguing enough? Scandalous enough?"


    Bryson''s mother''s face turned pale.


    She pointed at Madelyn, trembling with anger...


    Never before had anyone dared to defy her like this!

 Chapter 153 Benjamins Heartache

    Chapter 153 Benjamin''s Heartache


    Chapter 153 Benjamin''s Heartache


    Bryson''s mother gestured for a while before blurting out a sentence.


    "I will make Bryson break up with you! Our family cannot have a daughter-inw like you."


    "You will get your wish!"


    Madelyn said and got up to leave.


    ...


    A slender figure entered from the door, and it was Bryson, his face filled with anxiety.


    "Mom!"


    He looked at Madelyn, trying to find something in her expression.


    Madelyn instantly understood.


    Felicity didn''t like her, and although Bryson was insisting, he couldn''t make the final decision.


    Madelyn did have feelings for him, but given the current situation, she had to stop here.


    Madelyn showed her grace and gentleness as she said, "Bryson, let''s call it off! A marriage that isn''t


    epted by the family will never be happy... Thank you for being with me all this time."


    Bryson didn''t want it to end.


    His face turned pale as he argued with his mother, but Felicity''s attitude was dominant. Finally, Bryson


    looked at Madelyn with a helpless expression and said softly, "I''ll apany you abroad, okay?"


    After saying that, he held Madelyn''s hand.


    Madelyn felt it was absurd.


    Too humbling!


    Ending up in such a family, where even the husband has to follow the mother-inw''s will, let alone


    herself?


    She gently withdrew her hand and said, "Bryson, I don''t want this kind of rtionship. While our


    feelings are not deep, we can still end it in time!"


    Bryson looked at her, filled with disappointment.


    Madelyn could tell that he had been struggling these past few days, probably being restricted by the


    Wyatt family. But it was because of this, she could move forward with him.


    She whispered, "I''m sorry," and was about to leave.


    ...


    In the quiet caf¨¦, Felicity''s sarcastic voice suddenly sounded.


    "Don''t want this kind of rtionship?


    "Is it possible that Ms. Green enjoys being yed by Benjamin?"


    ...


    Madelyn felt suffocated.


    In her rtionship with Benjamin, she had genuinely given her heart, and it wasn''t her fault that it


    wasn''t epted and had no result.


    Why did Bryson''s mother have to be like this!


    This was a high-end restaurant.


    Madelyn restrained her emotions as much as possible and said softly, "Now I understand why Bryson,


    at his age, is still unmarried! With a mother like you, he probably has little courage to pursue girls."


    And she, Madelyn, was the chosen one!


    She nced at Bryson once more, not wanting to break their rtionshippletely. She nodded


    gently and left.


    As she left, her eyes were a bit red.


    In any case, her rtionship with Bryson was serious.


    But Madelyn had her bottom line and principles. If it didn''t work, it didn''t work. She didn''t want to


    She walked resolutely, and Bryson argued fiercely with his mother.


    Felicity''s words became harsher, each one piercing Madelyn''s heart. Perhaps, for Felicity, the fact that


    Madelyn didn''t want her son made her even more miserable than death!


    Madelyn walked straight out.


    She opened the door and got in the car.


    Instead of immediately starting the car, she took a tissue and wiped her eyes, which were a bit red and


    painful.


    The passenger door opened...


    Benjamin sat beside her with a cold gust of wind.


    Madelyn turned her face to the side. "Benjamin, get out!"


    Benjamin stared at her red eyes and asked softly, "You broke up with Bryson? I''ve said before that


    there''s nothing interesting about being with him. To put it nicely, he''s refined and cultured, but in reality,


    he''s indecisive!"


    Madelyn was feeling heartbroken, and she couldn''t stand hearing these words.


    She threw the tissue in her hand at him.


    "Get out of the car!"


    Benjamin didn''t move; he just kept staring at her.


    Madelyn didn''t want to be seen in such a disheveled state, especially by Benjamin.


    Since he wouldn''t leave, she kicked him twice.


    Benjamin grabbed her leg, which was d in stockings, and gently caressed it twice, saying in a


    hoarse voice, "Madelyn, you are always this rude to me!"


    She red at him, her eyes moist and touching.


    Benjamin really wanted to move along her legs to do something to her...


    But it wasn''t the right time.


    He leaned over and lightly stroked her delicate face, sighing softly, "You''ve broken up with Bryson, and


    I should be celebrating and setting off fireworks. I should even thank that old woman! But... you looking


    so helpless and on the verge of tears makes me feel distressed! Madelyn... Besides me, no one can


    bully you."


    After saying that, Benjamin got out of the car.


    He dragged Madelyn out as well.


    Madelyn was still bewildered and wondered, "Did he hear Felicity''s words just now?" When Madelyn


    regained her senses, she struggled forcefully. "Benjamin, what are you doing?"


    Benjamin forcefully held her shoulder.


    He looked down at her and said, "Letting off some steam for you!"


    ...


    Inside the caf¨¦.


    The Wyatt family''s mother and son were still arguing when suddenly, Felicity saw Benjamin hugging


    Madelyn as they entered.


    She was infuriated and pointed at them, saying to Bryson, "See! You must not marry this girl. Marrying


    her would tarnish our family''s reputation."


    Bryson''s face turned pale as he looked at Madelyn.


    Madelyn wanted to say something, but Benjamin leaned close to her ear and whispered, "If you dare to


    speak, I''ll kiss you immediately."


    Madelyn was speechless.


    Benjamin confronted Felicity!


    He put on an elite appearance, elegant and suave, and said, "Mrs. Wyatt, hello!"


    Felicity sneered, "I can''t say hello! Ben, you should take this Ms. Green away! Bryson cannot afford


    her!"


    She initially thought that Madelyn was just a girl Benjamin was toying with.


    So, she didn''t think there would be much consequence to her disrespectful words.


    Benjamin let out a cold smile.


    He enunciated each word, saying, "Indeed, your Wyatt family cannot afford her!"


    Felicity''s face changed drastically.


    "Ben, are you willing to ruin our rtionship over an unrted woman? How will you exin this to


    your parents if they find out?" she eximed.


    Benjamin let out a sharpugh.


    "Mrs. Wyatt, I''m already 28 years old. If I can''t handle my own affairs and rely on my parents, then


    what''s the difference between me and a waste? By the way... What I wanted to tell you is that Madelyn


    is indeed a girl I have carefully nurtured. Her association with me is a gift for your family... As for me, I


    had a small disagreement with Madelyn, and in her anger, she started dating Bryson for ten days...


    Those ten days were a bargain for you. I give that limited VIP experience card to your family as a gift.


    "As for others, as for the future..."


    Benjamin smiled lightly, but the smile didn''t reach his eyes.


    "For these ten days between Madelyn and Bryson, I don''t want anyone to know. If anyone dares to


    badmouth Madelyn in the future, I guarantee, Mrs. Wyatt, that I will bankrupt the Wyatt family and set


    off fireworks for a month in Gredax with the proceeds.


    "After a month, the Wyatt family will no longer exist in Gredax."


    Felicity pointed at Benjamin, feeling so angry that she was about to faint.

    She couldn''t believe it, she couldn''t! How could a younger generation dare to threaten her like this!


    "Bryson... quickly contact your uncles and aunts. I want to teach this disrespectful brat a lesson. I


    want... I want..."


    Bryson didn''t move.


    He looked at Madelyn, his eyes slightly red.


    He truly liked her!


    After a long silence, he spoke softly, "Madelyn, I''m sorry."


    Madelyn was right. They were truly not suitable for each other.


    He had also worked hard for their future, but all he could achieve was making Madelynpromise


    with her mother... but Madelyn didn''t need that!

 Chapter 154 Madelyn, Lets Give It a Try!

    Chapter 154 Madelyn, Let''s Give It a Try!


    Chapter 154 Madelyn, Let''s Give It a Try!


    The farce came to an end.


    Madelyn quickly walked out of the caf¨¦.


    She had ended things with Bryson, but she had gotten herself into even bigger trouble.


    Benjamin hurriedly walked a few steps and caught her delicate wrist. "Madelyn."


    Madelyn bit her lip. "You lunatic!"


    She was so embarrassed just now!


    He was simply...


    Even if she couldn''t be Bryson''s wife, they could still be friends who could nod at each other when they


    met. This made her so ufortable.


    Benjamin was also angry.


    With a loud thud, he pressed Madelyn against the car.


    His slender fingers grazed her cheek, and he asked in a slow and dangerous tone, "Are you feeling


    sorry for him? Madelyn... I watched you two these past few days. Are you only feeling sorry for him and


    not for me?"


    As he spoke, he was genuinely jealous.


    He gently pinched her chin and asked ufortably, "Did you kiss him?"


    Madelyn was so angry that she pped him.


    After the p, she slightly tilted her face, waiting for him to p her back. She knew Benjamin had a


    bad temper.


    Benjamin was indeed angry, but how could he hit a woman?


    He touched his face and still managed to smile.


    "Madelyn, I told you before that you can only be rude to me!"


    It had been a while since theyst separated, but now their bodies were pressing against each other


    again. He couldn''t help but lightly tease her, and his voice became hoarse and full of desire.


    "Madelyn, let''s give it a try!"


    As he spoke, he kissed her delicate earlobe.


    That piece of snow-white skin blushed faintly with a touch, looking extremely beautiful.


    Madelyn''s body stiffened.


    Although Benjamin had mentioned it to her before, she had been unwilling to think about it, or even


    afraid to think about it. But now that he brought it up again, Madelyn had to take it seriously.


    She gently pushed him away and whispered, "Benjamin, it''s impossible for us."


    Benjamin took a step back, his deep eyes appreciating her vulnerable state.


    "Why is it impossible?


    "Aren''t we happy together?


    "Did you really like Bryson?"


    ...


    Madelyn slowly stood up straight.


    She looked into his eyes and said firmly, "Even without Bryson, there will be someone else! Benjamin, it


    was you who didn''t want me back then. Now, just because you said ''let''s give it a try,'' am I supposed to


    gratefully return to your side? If I did that, I would despise myself!"


    She took a deep breath.


    "We have already ended! Don''te looking for me in the future, and don''t do any strange things, or


    else..."


    Benjamin chuckled lightly.


    He lit a cigarette, shamelessly retorting, "Or else what? Will you use me of sexual harassment?"


    Madelyn became furious once again.


    She opened the car door and tried to get in, but her arm was caught by him.


    Benjamin blew a smoke ring towards her, smirking, "Ms. Green, I helped you, and you don''t even say


    thank you. How heartless!"


    Madelyn knew his ways too well.


    She shook off his hand, got in the car, and drove away.


    Benjamin wasn''t angry either. He stood in ce, smoking quietly, his eyes and eyebrows exuding a


    mature and charming aura...


    Bryson came out and crossed paths with him.


    Benjamin squinted slightly, then sneered and got into his car as well, leaving.


    ...


    Madelyn and Bryson parted ways.


    She called Cam and told her about the situation.


    Cam remained silent for a while before saying, "If there''s no future for you, then don''t force it."


    Madelyn responded softly.


    On the other end, Cam hesitated to speak.


    She had received a call from Felicity, who naturally wanted to vent her anger and spilled Benjamin''s


    secrets. But now that Madelyn didn''t mention it, Cam couldn''t inquire further.


    Madelyn hung up the phone.


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    She suddenly felt empty and decided to tidy up her apartment and light some incense.


    The night was quiet.


    She thought about her unsessful rtionships and poured herself a ss of red wine.


    It was supposed to be just a little drink.


    But she felt so miserable that she couldn''t help but drink more... And as she became slightly


    intoxicated, Bryson called.


    Madelyn thought about it and answered the call.


    Bryson''s voice was hoarse, "Madelyn..."


    After contemting for a while, he spoke in a low voice, "Madelyn, are we really impossible?"


    Madelyn didn''t say anything.


    She knew Bryson was feeling down...


    They didn''t have a future together, but she was willing to show him some kindness.


    Bryson smiled bitterly, and then he lowered his voice, sounding somewhat lost, "That''s good! Madelyn,


    I might be engaged soon. It''s a girl from my mother''s side of the family."


    Madelyn didn''t expect it to happen so quickly.


    But she wasn''t naive, and she quickly guessed that this girl might have always been there. Bryson


    resisted before, but after this incident, he epted the arranged marriage.


    She congratted him gracefully.


    Bryson couldn''t help but think that maybe Madelyn never liked him.


    He just happened to appear at a juncture, filling the void in her life after she broke up with Benjamin.


    He, Bryson, had never truly entered her heart...


    Madelyn hung up the phone.


    Her mood became even worse, not because she was sad, but because Bryson already had a fiancee.


    She, Madelyn, had no issues with her personality and appearance, so why was she still single?


    This one was no good, and that one was no good!


    ...


    Anyway, it didn''t matter if she got drunk at home.


    Late at night, Madelyn was intoxicated.


    The apartment door opened with a click.


    Benjamin, with an elegant demeanor, walked in, holding a newly duplicated key.


    Inside the small apartment.


    The heating was turned up high, incense was burning, and a pleasant scent of oranges filled the room.


    Madelyn was leaning on the couch, asleep. She wore a cotton cow-print pajama, with her head slightly


    tilted back and her beautiful red lips slightly parted...


    Benjamin''s body tensed.


    It had been too long since he had relieved himself, and just looking at this scene made him unable to


    bear it.


    He wasn''t the type of man who wouldpromise himself physically. He wanted her, he wanted to


    start over with her, and with that in mind, having her and sleeping with her would relieve him of any


    psychological burden.


    Benjamin took off his thin wool coat, revealing his formal attire underneath.


    He unbuttoned a few buttons on his shirt, allowing his Adam''s apple to be freed, moving up and down


    temptingly.


    He walked over and leaned over Madelyn''s body, supporting himself on the couch with one hand and


    holding her small face with the other.


    Her lips were slightly parted, releasing the fragrance of red wine.


    Benjamin felt that if he continued to restrain himself, he wouldn''t be a man anymore.


    Taking advantage of this natural advantage, he lowered his head and kissed her, kissing deeply and


    gently, over and over again. He felt it wasn''t enough, so he couldn''t resist hugging her tightly.


    She was so soft...


    After drinking, she was so well-behaved and obedient.


    Benjamin was overwhelmed by desire. While kissing, he softly called her name.


    "Madelyn..."


    Madelyn was drunk, but notpletely unconscious.


    She slowly opened her eyes and saw Benjamin''s erged handsome face. He slightly lifted his tense


    chin, his eyes half-closed, his face tinted with a faint redness, and his whole being exuding a sexy


    desire.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but lightly touch his handsome face...


    Benjamin''s body trembled, his voice bing husky and unrecognizable.


    "Madelyn..."


    If it were in the past, Madelyn would surely be moved, but she couldn''t forget that night in the hospital,


    the cold machine causing pain in her body... and he wasn''t by her side.


    Madelyn felt weak and helpless, with a hint of drunkenness.


    "How did you get in?


    "Benjamin, we are exes. I just broke up with Bryson... Even if I want to sleep with someone, it won''t be


    your turn!"


    ...


    After she finished speaking, she kicked him with her foot, refusing to yield!


    Benjamin was at a critical moment.


    With this kick, she almost let the rk family''s bloodline end. Benjamin caught her delicate leg, gazing


    at her with profound eyes.


    He abused, "What''s so great about that coward? How could he make you so happy... Besides, I''m your


    only man, am I not?"

    Chapter 155 I Can Give What Bryson Gives


    Chapter 155 I Can Give What Bryson Gives


    Benjamin spoke, his blood boiling with enthusiasm.


    Although she had been with Bryson for 10 days, they had only flirted a little, nothing more.


    Only he had touched her body.


    Benjaminforted the woman in his arms, "Madelyn, be obedient, I want you."


    As he spoke, he was about to take off his shirt...


    A sobbing sound, faint and delicate, echoed in the small room.


    Benjamin paused.


    Madelyn curled up beneath him, softly saying no andining of pain.


    Benjamin felt a surge of excitement. He kissed her and said, "I haven''t done anything yet. How could it


    hurt?"


    Madelyn opened her eyes.


    Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears, as if immersed in water...


    She gently caressed his handsome face and unconsciously said, "It was painful! When the machine


    was inserted, it hurt so much... Benjamin, you weren''t there, so I could only cling to the bedsheet..."


    As Madelyn spoke, she started to cry.


    Large tears rolled down...


    "I was in so much pain. I counted every minute and second for that half hour, hoping for the pain to


    end... but it just wouldn''t stop. It kept hurting... Benjamin, you were the one who took me to the


    hospital. Why did you go to Eleanorter? Do you know how I felt seeing her with a rosyplexion,


    Madelyn was drunk, or maybe not really drunk.


    She took advantage of this moment to speak from her heart, perhaps hoping to reject him.


    "Benjamin... I don''t want to ruin myself. I don''t want to feel pain anymore."


    Benjamin listened in a daze, his heart suddenly aching.


    Madelyn had never told him any of this before...


    Had that night really left an indelible mark on her? To the point where she didn''t even want to do such


    things anymore?


    She was semi-drunk, and Benjamin could actually coax her.


    With his skills, he could make her rx, and then they would have a passionate night. But when


    Madelyn mentioned pain, he hesitated...


    Slowly, his desire cooled down.


    He didn''t leave Madelyn''s body; instead, he embraced her gently.


    He pressed his face against hers, against her slender neck covered in fine hair, and whispered, "It


    won''t hurt anymore! Madelyn, you won''t feel pain anymore... I''ll be careful, even if we go to the hospital


    in the future, I''ll apany you, okay?"


    Madelyn didn''t respond.


    She cried herself to sleep in his embrace...


    Late at night, everything was quiet.


    At this time, people''s hearts were most easily softened.


    Benjamin considered himself to have a heart of stone, but all the exceptions, all the tenderness, were


    given to Madelyn.


    But this woman felt it wasn''t enough.


    She didn''t want him; she would rather search through a pile of garbage to find a treasure.


    Benjamin sneered.


    How could a treasure be found among garbage?


    He was confident that only he, Benjamin, was the treasure Madelyn was looking for. No one else


    should even think about getting close to her, or they would be in trouble.


    Benjamin knew he was domineering, but so what!


    All he wanted was for her to return to his side.


    ...


    Although they failed to do it, Benjamin was in a good mood after dealing with Bryson, his rival in love.


    He carried Madelyn to the bedroom.


    Watching her lie on the soft bed, he even ced a rabbit doll in her arms. She looked really cute and


    delicious.


    Benjamin took off his clothes and took a shower in her small bathroom.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    There were no pajamas for him here, so he just went shirtless and cuddled up with her to sleep.


    The night grew deeper and quieter.


    In the air, a hint of orange fragrance slowly spread...


    ...


    Early morning.


    Madelyn woke up and was startled when she opened her eyes.


    Benjamin... Why was he on her bed?


    "Want a good morning kiss?" The man''s voice waszy.


    Madelyn lightly bit her red lip.


    "Why are you in my house, Benjamin... Get out! You jerk!"


    Benjamin pressed her down and kissed her for a long time...


    The kiss ended.


    Madelyny beside him, breathing softly.


    She hadn''t brushed her teeth, but he didn''t mind.


    While regaining her senses, she reyedst night in her mind. It seemed that after she got drunk, he


    came over, and then he kissed her on the sofa, and she cried and said a lot of things...


    Madelyn''s face looked unpleasant. She lifted the covers and checked.


    Benjamin had already gotten up and saw her expression, so he smirked.


    "I can''t continue when you cry like that and say it hurts!"


    Madelyn blushed and cursed at him, then told him to leave.


    Benjamin had thick skin.


    In front of her, he calmly picked up his pants and shirt and leisurely put them on, as if they had really


    had an affairst night. Combined with his great physique, especially the visible abdominal muscles, he


    looked extremely enticing.


    Madelyn didn''t dare to look.


    She turned her face ufortably, biting her lip and said, "Leave the key behind."


    Benjamin smiled. "The key was made with my money. Why should I give it to you?"


    Madelyn got angry; he was shameless indeed.


    Benjamin zipped up his pants.


    He walked over, admiring her red face when she was angry. She looked so beautiful; he could look at it


    for a lifetime without getting bored.


    "Madelyn, let''s give it a try, okay?"


    "I don''t know if we can make it to the end, but whatever Bryson is willing to give, I''m willing too... Let''s


    give it a try, and if we develop feelings, we can get married."


    ...


    He finished speaking and stared deeply into her eyes.


    Madelyn was actually kind of tempted by his proposal.


    After all, she still liked him, but... A heart that had been hurt once couldn''t be easily healed.


    After a long while, she softly said, "Benjamin, let''s just forget it."


    Benjamin frowned.


    He was about to say something when his phone rang. It was a call from William.


    Madelyn didn''t want to continue the conversation, so she said, "Answer the phone!"


    After saying that, she got up and went to the bathroom.


    Benjamin couldn''t stop her, so he sat on the edge of the bed and answered the call.


    On the other end of the phone, William was in the UK and sounded quite anxious, "Ben, Eleanor has


    lost a lot of blood and only your blood can save her. The hospitals here in the UK are facing shortages


    of AB Rh-negative blood. Can youe to the UK? Uncle won''t ask for your help unless it''s absolutely


    necessary. Can you do it?"


    ...


    Benjamin instinctively nced at Madelyn. She was in the middle of washing up and clearly heard it


    too.


    Her hand paused for a moment, and then she continued brushing her teeth, but with a bit more force.


    After finishing, she went to make breakfast.


    She heard everything!


    Not only were Benjamin and Eleanor childhood sweethearts, but they also shared the rare and


    precious AB Rh-negative blood. How perfect andpatible they are... Madelyn''s romantic feelings


    vanished into thin air.


    She decided to draw a clear line with him.


    Once he figured things out, he would go find Eleanor.


    Benjamin watched her enter the kitchen.


    He could tell she was unhappy, but he could also sense that she still had feelings for him...


    After waiting for a while without a response, William couldn''t help but urge.


    "Ben... Ben... Are you unable toe? I''m asking you to do it as a favor for what happened back


    then..."


    Benjamin''s voice turned cold.


    "Mr. Bet, I know you saved Eloise''s life! I''ve been quite busytely and can''t go to the UK. So... I''ll


    go to the hospital to have my blood drawn and then arrange for it to be transported to the UK by a


    special ne."


    William felt both disappointed and happy.


    He was disappointed because Eleanor''s condition wasn''t good, and if Ben coulde, not only would


    he provide her with emotionalfort, but it would also be much more convenient to have ess to


    blood anytimepared to at home...


    After replying, Benjamin hung up the phone.


    He walked into the kitchen quietly.


    In the morning light, Madelyn had a gentle side face as she was preparing breakfast.


    Benjamin hugged her from behind and asked, "Are you angry?"

 Chapter 156 He Comes to Her Side

    Chapter 156 He Comes to Her Side


    Chapter 156 He Comes to Her Side


    Madelyn gently freed herself from his grasp.


    Her tone was cold. "I have no right to be angry, and there''s no need to be angry."


    "But you are angry!"


    Benjamin lightly pulled her back into his embrace.


    Early in the morning, the man''s desire was terrifyingly high. His thin lips pressed against the soft nape


    of her neck, gently nibbling, hinting at his irresistible intentions.


    Madelyn couldn''t bear it any longer. "Benjamin, aren''t you supposed to go to the hospital?"


    "I''ll leave afterforting you!"


    ...


    Madelyn was furious.


    She kicked him with her foot, but he caught her leg between his own, then pressed her entire body


    against the small kitchen counter, looking at her in a shameful manner.


    Benjamin restrained her and started to act deliberately.


    "Have you missed me these days?"


    His words carried the charm of a mature man, which was quite attractive to women.


    Madelyn simply let him do as he pleased.


    But she didn''t respond.


    Moreover, she coldly uttered two words, "I haven''t."


    "You haven''t?"


    Benjamin didn''t believe it.


    He remembered how passionate and lively she was when they were together, so he boldly sought


    confirmation in the cramped kitchen. The result was exactly as Madelyn had said...


    She didn''t miss him at all!


    In that instant, a great sense of frustration surged within Benjamin.


    Madelyn had be indifferent to him!


    He didn''t say anything, just tightly embraced her and kissed her. "Madelyn, let me apany you."


    Madelyn gently pushed him away.


    Her tone was even colder as she said, "No need! Benjamin, we ended a long time ago, and it''s not


    suitable to do these things. I don''t want to be a woman you use for satisfying yourself."


    Benjamin stood up straight.


    He tidied his clothes and furrowed his brow lightly.


    Madelyn turned her back to him and continued cooking breakfast, saying, "I didn''t cook your breakfast!


    Leave the key when you go."


    Benjamin wanted to say something more.


    His phone rang, and it was a call from William.


    He didn''t want to answer in front of Madelyn, so he held the phone and walked out.


    ...


    The door closed gently.


    However, Madelyn lost her mood to make breakfast. Benjamin had once again thrown her life into


    chaos.


    At that moment, the doorbell rang...


    Thinking it was Benjamin, Madelyn didn''t go to open the door.


    But it turned out to be Vivian.


    Vivian looked unhappy. "I saw Benjamin downstairs, Madelyn. You''re not back together, are you?"


    Madelyn forced a bitter smile. "We haven''t reconciled! But I broke up with Bryson."


    Vivian hesitated for a moment, ming herself. "Madelyn, is it because of me?"


    Madelyn gently pinched Vivian''s face. "Do you think you have that much influence? It has nothing to do


    with you; we''re just not for each other."


    Vivian responded with an "oh."


    Suddenly, she leaned in close to Madelyn and spoke in a drawn-out voice, "Madelyn, tell me honestly,


    did you sleep with Benjaminst night? I saw him downstairs, smoking. He looked quite sexy... like


    someone who just had sex."


    Madelyn couldn''t resist her. Her face turned red, and she stammered, "No! I was drunk!"


    She suddenly remembered that Benjamin was going to the hospitalter to give his precious blood to


    another woman... Just the thought of it made her heart ache.


    Another woman, Benjamin''s blood, no marriage...


    No matter how she looked at it, Benjamin wouldn''t be her good match.


    After having breakfast, Madelyn was about to go to the music room when her phone rang.


    It was a call from Cam, her voice filled with urgency.


    "Madelyn...e to the hospital quickly.


    "Your father felt dizzy this morning and copsed during his morning exercise. The doctor said it''s


    rted to his cardiovascr condition... Pleasee quickly. We''re at Gredax You Heal Hospital."


    Madelyn immediately went downstairs, opened the car door, and got in.


    "Cam, don''t worry, I''ll be there right away."


    ...


    Half an hourter, Madelyn arrived at the hospital.


    Samuel was still unconscious.


    Several doctors surrounded the bed, discussing surgical ns. Cam sat beside the bed, holding


    Samuel''s hand, unable to stop her tears.


    Madelyn''s heart sank when she saw the scene.


    When Cam saw her approach, she seemed to have found her anchor.


    "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn lightly patted her shoulder tofort her, then looked at Samuel lying silently on the bed, her


    throat tightening.


    In the past six months, her father had suffered too much!


    Cam, tearfully, said, "Madelyn, these are authoritative doctors from the hospital. Talk to them about


    your father''s condition."


    Madelyn nodded.


    She politely and somewhat anxiouslymunicated with the doctors.


    "Mr. Green''s condition is not very optimistic.


    "If we proceed with the surgery, the sess rate is only 50%, and it''s quite risky.


    "The current technology for this surgery in the country is still not very mature, unless..."


    ...


    Madelyn felt somewhat dazed.


    Cam couldn''t stop crying, almost kneeling and begging the doctors to save Samuel''s life.


    The doctors, seeing their state, felt sympathetic.


    At that moment, the door to the ward opened, and Benjamin entered from outside, followed by Paisley.


    Benjamin''s face was pale, indicating that he had just drawn blood.


    Paisley spoke first, "When I came here, I saw Ms. Green, and I thought she was here apanying


    Mr. rk. It turns out her father''s health is not well."


    She acted tactfully and handed her business card to the attending physician.


    "Mr. Green is an elder of Mr. rk."


    The chief doctors naturally knew Benjamin.


    Benjamin was not only a topwyer in the country, but the rk Group was also thergest economic


    entity in the northern region, making Benjamin the wealthiest person in Gredax.


    Many people wanted to curry favor with him but couldn''t.


    Paisley smiled. "The atmosphere here seems pleasant, but perhaps not suitable for a patient''s


    recovery. How about this? Let''s start by moving to a VIP single room. As for the surgery, Mr. rk has


    his connections and can invite the best experts from both domestic and foreign sources, but it also


    requires your cooperation."


    She spoke politely and tactfully.


    Benjamin, with his power and influence, immediately arranged it with the hospital.


    From beginning to end, Benjamin hadn''t even said a word.


    Cam forgot to cry.


    The hospital had just said that there were no avable VIP rooms, but now there was one? Moreover,


    Paisley mentioned that domestic and foreign experts woulde for Samuel''s consultation surgery?


    Wasn''t this like a dream?


    Cam looked at Benjamin as if he were a savior, and she quietly tugged at Madelyn''s sleeve.


    She meant, "Daughter, show some gratitude!"


    Madelyn felt ufortable...


    Last night and this morning, she had rejected Benjamin, but now she was indebted to him!


    In the future, things would definitely be unclear.


    Madelyn regretted it a bit now. If she had known, she should have allowed him to have his way in the


    morning. That way, they would have settled the matter with no strings attached, and she wouldn''t have


    felt guilty or owed him anything!


    Her little scheme couldn''t escape Benjamin''s eyes.


    He nced at her and said coldly, "Madelyn, is this how you see me? A shallow man?"


    He wanted to start over with her, to pursue her.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Was the only thing he had in mind just getting into bed?


    Madelyn was taken aback by his sternness andcked the confidence to argue back.


    She couldn''t be willful now...

    Chapter 157 See You Crying Because of Me


    Chapter 157 See You Crying Because of Me


    Less than two hourster, the four-member expert teamnded in Gredax.


    Benjamin personally went to the airport to pick them up.


    When the experts arrived at the hospital, they didn''t even have time to drink tea before starting the


    consultation.


    N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.


    Throughout the process, Benjamin was by their side.


    One hourter, the surgical n was finalized...


    Cam was extremely grateful, holding Paisley''s hand tightly. "We owe you so much this time."


    Paisley smiled mysteriously.


    In a low voice, she said, "You should thank Mr. rk. These experts are not easily obtainable for


    ordinary people. Mr. rk rarely uses his special connections."


    Cam nodded in agreement.


    Paisley had originally wanted to say more, but she felt it was better not to interfere with her boss''s


    personal life.


    Samuel''s surgery took a long time, and Paisley left first.


    But Benjamin stayed.


    He sat elegantly on a bench in the quiet hospital corridor, dealing with his business on his phone.


    Madelyn walked over and sat beside him.


    Benjamin paused, turned his head to nce at her, and didn''t say anything.


    Madelyn handed him a cup of glutinous rice porridge.


    "It replenishes blood."


    Benjamin was probably still angry. He ignored her, didn''t take the thing from her hand, and left her


    hanging.


    Madelyn awkwardly said, "Benjamin, thank you."


    Benjamin put away his phone, staring at her. "Ms. Green, how do you n to thank me?"


    Madelyn knew what he wanted!


    It was nothing more than going back to his side, nothing more than starting over and ying a love


    game with him.


    Where the finish line would be was up to him.


    But with such a huge debt of gratitude, Madelyn felt a lot of pressure. She knew he had ulterior motives


    and that she couldn''t get away with not giving anything in return.


    Now she was single, and they had done it many times before.


    In the quiet hospital corridor, Madelyn heard her own shallow voice.


    "Benjamin, I truly appreciate what you''ve done for me. But... I can''t repay it with a rtionship."


    ...


    Benjamin''s tone was cold, "Then how does Ms. Green n to repay it? With your body?"


    Madelyn suddenly looked up at him.


    Her watery eyes were even more moist than usual.


    Benjamin stared at her harshly, not intending to pamper her.


    He hadn''t expected any return for what he had done for her. Even if he hadn''t intended to win back


    Madelyn before this incident, he would still have helped. But Madelyn deliberately misinterpreted his


    actions.


    Benjamin stood up lightly.


    He said, "Well, that''s not impossible! It''s quite exciting for me."


    Madelyn''s face turned pale.


    Benjamin bent down and whispered in her ear, "If Ms. Green doesn''t want a rtionship, then let''s just


    enjoy pure sex. But... Don''t cry when that timees!"


    He touched her cheek with a malicious grin. "I really want to see you crying because of me!"


    After speaking, Benjamin nned to go out and smoke a cigarette.


    But a slender arm gently pulled him back...


    "Benjamin."


    Madelyn looked up at him, her eyes filled with helplessness.


    Benjamin, standing tall, stared deeply into her eyes.


    Madelyn felt incredibly embarrassed at the moment, her voice choked. "Benjamin, I''m really grateful to


    you..."


    Benjamin''s heart softened.


    He reached out and touched her chestnut-colored long hair. His voice hoarse, "I''m just going out to


    smoke a cigarette! Madelyn, I stayed up all night without sleep and had 500C of blood drawn this


    morning. Even someone as tough as me can''t withstand this! Even if you''re undressed in front of me


    right now, I might not be able to perform."


    He was indeed rude, and Madelyn blushed.


    Benjamin walked away and smoked several cigarettes...


    Samuel''s surgery was a sess.


    When they wheeled him out of the operating room, Cam cried tears of joy, and Madelyn held her


    father''s hand tightly.


    After a night, Samuel''s vital signs stabilized.


    If nothing unexpected happened, he could be discharged in a couple of months.


    Cam was delighted. "It''s just in time to celebrate the New Year at home! We owe a lot to Ben.


    Samuel ... you have no idea how capable he is."


    Samuel smiled at the corners of his mouth.


    While they were talking, there was a knocking at the door of the hospital room.


    Cam thought it was Benjamin and softly asked Madelyn to open the door, behaving like a mother-in-


    To her surprise, when the door opened, it was Daniel standing outside.


    Madelyn''s face immediately turned cold, and she didn''t let hime in, speaking in a cold voice, "What


    are you here for?"


    Daniel''s gaze was deep.


    "I came to see your father."


    Madelyn was afraid of upsetting Samuel, so she restrained herself and said, "Daniel, have you not


    done enough damage to our family? Are we not finished? I beg you, don''t bother my dad anymore."


    But Daniel couldn''t do it.


    He wanted to see Madelyn. He wanted it badly.


    He couldn''t help but ask her, "Have you made up with Benjamin? I know he arranged everything with


    the hospital for your father."


    Madelyn didn''t want to talk about that with him.


    At that moment, Samuel''s weak voice came out, "Maddie, let him in!"


    Madelyn hesitated.


    "Let him in. I also have something to say to him."


    Madelyn had no choice but to step aside and let Daniel in.


    Daniel silently walked into the hospital room.


    He ced the supplements he brought on the side, and unexpectedly knelt down gently in front of


    Samuel''s bed.


    Tears shimmered in Samuel''s eyes.


    Cam almost cried out in pain: What?!


    Madelyn wanted to speak, but Samuel spoke softly, "Madelyn, you and your mom go into the small


    room. I have something to say to Daniel."


    Daniel closed his eyes gently.


    He said, "Samuel, you are still willing to call me Daniel. You don''t hate me, right?"


    Cam cursed in pain, "How dare you?"


    Samuel nced at her, and Cam lowered her head, pulling Madelyn into the small room.


    When the hospital room became quiet.


    Samuely quietly, not looking at the young man kneeling there, but murmured to himself, "I had


    decades of friendship with your father, and Madelyn liked you so much back then. I never thought you


    would treat me like this! Daniel... You were doing well, doing the right thing. A man should be ruthless,


    heartless, and willing to sacrifice his desires... He should spend his whole life climbing up thedder of


    sess."


    Daniel remained silent.


    "Daniel... The thing you shouldn''t have done the most was fall in love with Madelyn! Look, you have


    power, status, and money, but are you happy? Every midnight, do you regret your choices?"


    Daniel''s voice choked.


    "Yes! Samuel ... I do!"


    "I ask for your forgiveness and please give me another chance."


    ...


    Samuel sighed softly, "It''s toote, Daniel, it''s toote... Madelyn no longer has feelings for you in her


    heart! For the sake of the past, stop making things difficult for her!"


    Daniel felt a chill all over his body.


    When he left, he felt lost.


    Clearly... Madelyn initially liked him, clearly they had a good four years together, clearly he had so


    many opportunities to seize her.


    But he let them slip away time and time again!


    As the hospital room door opened, Daniel met Benjamin face to face.


    Benjamin was dressed smartly, making Daniel look disheveled...


    The two men passed each other.


    Daniel stopped in his tracks and spoke in a cold voice, "Benjamin, you might not necessarily be able to


    hold on to her either."


    Benjamin never considered him a threat.


    With his pristine white shirt, he arrogantly said, "Mr. Campbell, do you think I''m as foolish as you?"


    Daniel left in a panic.


    Benjamin watched him disappear, his previously confident demeanor crumbling.


    Damn it...


    Just as Bryson left, Daniel came back again!


    Benjamin felt annoyed, and after exchanging a few words in the hospital room, he paid little attention to


    Madelyn...


    The elders could see through it, pretending not to know.


    Lunch break.


    Samuel was sound asleep, and Cam was dozing off by the bedside.


    Madelyn went to the restroom, but just as she was about toe out, a tall figure shed in and locked


    the door with a click...


    Madelyn hadn''t reacted yet when her body was pressed against the door.


    Benjamin lightly pinched her chin and intruded, leaning in to kiss her.


    "Benjamin!"


    Madelyn''s slender body was trapped by him, and she used all her strength to pound his shoulders.


    He was crazy!


    This was the hospital room, dad and Cam could wake up at any moment...

 Chapter 158 He Was Too Powerful, And Madelyn Was Not!

    Chapter 158 HeWasToo Powerful, And Madelyn Was Not!


    Chapter 158 He Was Too Powerful, And Madelyn Was Not!


    After a kiss.


    Breathing heavily...


    Madelyn weakly leaned against the wall of the bathroom. Without his support, her body would have slid


    to the ground long ago. Even so, her legs still felt weak and powerless.


    Benjamin was no better than her.


    His handsome face was flushed, and he looked forbiddingly for a long time.


    "Madelyn..."


    His voice was surprisingly hoarse. "What did Daniel say?"


    Madelyn, afraid of disturbing their two elders, bit her lip and said, "I don''t know."


    Benjamin''s gaze was deep and hard to understand.


    After a moment, he spoke again with a hint of tenderness in his voice, bending down to kiss her once


    more.


    "Don''t want to talk about it, just want me to kiss you, right?"


    Madelyn was both shy and angry and kicked him lightly.


    "Benjamin, you only know how to y with me!"


    "You said you wanted to start over...and you''re starting over with me in this ce?"


    "You jerk!"


    ...


    As she spoke, her eyes were red.


    But Benjamin didn''t stop. Instead, he kissed her even more gently.


    Afterwards, he pressed his forehead against hers and breathed lightly.


    "Madelyn, I missed you so much!"


    "Men like women and they all want to do that thing with them. If a man doesn''t want to, then he''s not a


    real man...isn''t that right?"


    Madelyn red at him. He was really twisting words.


    Benjamin smiled lightly.


    He took her hand and ced it on his handsome face.


    When Madelyn touched his warm skin, her palms felt as if they were burning, and she wanted to pull it


    away hastily.


    But Benjamin wouldn''t let her.


    He saw her panic


    He pressed her gently against the wall and teased her skillfully.


    Madelyn had never experienced this before!


    She bit her lip, her face red enough to bleed.


    Benjamin led her hand over his face in a sexy and charming way.


    "Madelyn...I''ll let you y with me!"


    "I''ll let you y with me, okay?"


    ...


    He was shameless!


    Madelyn suddenly pushed him away.


    Gasping for breath, her heart thumping violently, she red at him.


    But Benjamin just smiled, seemingly amused by her reaction.


    He was too powerful, and it was easy for him to tease a woman. Madelyn was too weak.


    She couldn''t match him!


    But faced with such a top-notch yboy, Madelyn didn''t want to lose her head. Her lips, which were


    beautiful in color, pursed into a straight line, and she said softly, "Mr. rk, I''ll wait for your call!"


    She knew he liked her body.


    And she could only give him that much!


    Madelyn hadn''t forgotten how much she had longed for his affection, but when the passion faded away,


    she realized that his slight fondness and pity for her were not worth it.


    She didn''t want to cry for him anymore.


    Benjamin saw her expression and guessed what she was thinking.


    Unexpectedly, he didn''t get angry. Instead, he said, "I''m going on a business trip for half a month."


    Madelyn''s gaze softened.


    He smiled. "Not to Ennd, but to Esrand! There''s a legal dispute with the Zachary Group over there,


    and I''m going to sort it out."


    Madelyn felt a little embarrassed.


    See, he knew everything she was thinking.


    He didn''t tease her.


    He actually missed her during the half-month business trip. If Samuel wasn''t sick, he would have


    brought her to Esrand. In his free time, he could take her to the beach for a cold beer and barbecue.


    He gently stroked her brown hair, showing some reluctance.


    Madelyn felt it too.


    When a man really shows his true feelings, he can''t conceal them. A corner of her defense quietly


    copsed, but she didn''t want to say it out loud.


    How could Benjamin not know?


    He gently hugged her, doing nothing but holding her.


    He said tenderly, "I''ll bring another secretary over there, Paisley will stay in Gredax, if Samuel has


    something to do, you can contact her, okay?"


    Such thoughtful arrangements, such kindness.


    Madelyn felt that she couldn''t repay him.


    Benjamin smiled. "The flight is in an hour and a half!"


    Madelyn looked up, her gaze heavy and difficult to understand.


    Benjamin didn''t say anything else. He also looked at her, his eyes full of the way a man looks at a


    woman.


    Finally, Madelyn whispered softly, "Take care."


    "Just waiting for you to say that!" Benjamin leaned over and kissed her, then said very considerately,


    "I''ll go out first. Will you...stay here for a while and thene out?"


    Madelyn: ...


    Benjamin left and it became much quieter. Madelyn didn''t know what happened in the bathroom that


    day, but Cam knew something. In any case, in the following days, Cam often mentioned Benjamin


    unintentionally, speaking of him with great satisfaction.


    Madelyn understood this kind of thinking very well, after all, Benjamin''s family background,


    appearance, and emotional intelligence were all great.


    It was hard for older women not to like him.


    Later, Daniel came twice more. Samuel didn''t see him again, and he was smart enough not to appear


    again.


    Samuel''s condition stabilized, and Madelyn returned to the music room to work, taking the opportunity


    to make up for some of the missed sses.


    Benjamin didn''t contact her.


    After he put down those ambiguous words, he seemed to disappear from her world, but Madelyn could


    still see his messages.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    He was in Esrand, fighting awsuit for the Zachary Group.


    The Zachary Group is the most famous enterprise in Esrand, doing big business, but because of some


    shady practices in the early years, they have had a lot of trouble.


    About two weekster, Benjamin made all the mainstream headlines.


    Legal God Creates Another Miracle


    A photo with Tyler, head of the Zachary Group, and Benjamin was posted! Benjamin was full of


    confidence!


    He was cold and handsome, standing beside the 50-year-old business tycoon without losing his aura,


    which was not only due to his personal ability but also because of the rk family behind him.


    The two of the most powerful families in the north and south, rk and Zachary, stood side by side.


    Madelyn looked at the photo and couldn''t help feeling something.


    She was also a little strange. The Zachary family held a grand celebration, and many socialites and


    female stars were said to have attended, but Benjamin did not appear in any photos with women.


    Of course, this was just a small thought in Madelyn''s mind.


    She would never go ask him, as it would make her look too concerned...


    In fact, there were some small stories that Madelyn didn''t know about. All the photos taken by


    paparazzi were blocked on the inte, including those of the bold and ignorant star Gabrielle.


    Benjamin was single and worth billions.


    Wherever he went, there were always many women who offer their affectionate attention, and even


    take the initiative to offer themselves.


    The banquet was halfway through.


    Benjamin had a few drinks and found an opportunity to slip away, leaving only his secretary to deal with


    things. Tyler valued him very much.


    He called his son Nics, "You should send Benjamin off! You can also learn something from him in


    the car. Don''t just y around with cars and useless things all day!"


    Nics was dressed in expensive formal wear but didn''t look proper.


    Tyler apologized with a smile, "This child''s mother passed away early, and I was busy with my


    business, so I neglected him! Ben, sorry about that." Benjamin naturally wouldn''t argue with a child.


    He looked at Nics.


    Well! He looked like a young wolf!


    On the surface, he was so gentle like spring breeze, "Mr. Zachary is quite handsome, he will surely


    be great in the future." Tyler was overjoyed.


    This was what he loved to hear most!

 Chapter 159 Madelyn, I Dont Want Anyone Else But You!

    Chapter 159 Madelyn, I Don''t Want Anyone Else But You!


    Chapter 159 Madelyn, I Don''t Want Anyone Else But You!


    Nics didn''t like Benjamin.


    He was only 28 years old, yet he was constantly with a group of old men and had be so shrewd


    and slick that it was annoying to hear him talk!


    But he still had to listen to his father''s words.


    He was dismissive,zily gesturing, "Mr. rk, please."


    Tyler didn''t look happy.


    Benjamin was quite magnanimous, "Nics is still young and needs to experience more! For example,


    if he doesn''t have too much capital, he will know how difficult life can be and will understand the


    importance of working hard."


    Tyler was moved by what he said.


    So Tyler decided, "Nics, Benjamin is right. It''s time for you to face some hardships."


    Nics, "..."


    His beautiful eyes, like peach blossoms, stared at Benjamin, grinding his delicate white teeth.


    "Thank you, Benjamin!"


    Benjamin gave a slight smile and said, "You''re wee!"


    Hi there, little wolf pup, you look young!


    In the car on the way back to the hotel.


    Neither the little wolf pup nor Benjamin spoke to each other, obviously not getting along.


    Only when they got out of the car, Nics held the door open and warmly said, "Benjamin, have fun!"


    Who was Benjamin?


    He could tell from these words.


    He was trying to set me up!


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Trying to ruin my reputation!


    He stood in his formal attire, smoking a cigarette under the dim lights.


    He took a slow drag and smiled lightly, "I will!"


    Nics smirked slightly.


    When he got into the car, he sent a message out, "Take good care of Mr. rk."


    ...


    Benjamin stood outside the hotel, slowly finishing a cigarette.


    Then he dialed 110 and reported that his room had been illegally entered.


    The police arrived quickly.


    Upon arrival, they saw such a handsome and elegant man and became even more polite, "Mr. rk."


    Benjamin extinguished his cigarette, smiled, and made a gesture.


    A few officers followed him upstairs.


    The hotel receptionist was frightened by themotion and immediately wanted to call the front desk.


    Benjamin approached her and unplugged her phone line.


    He looked at her with his deep eyes, and just one nce made the young girl weak in the knees.


    The group went upstairs.


    The officers had a recording device with them. When they used the key card to open the room door,


    they were met with a big surprise.


    A second-line female star was lying on Benjamin''s hotel bed, dressed in revealing clothing. She had


    thought the opening of the door was Benjamin returning, so she became even more wild...


    But it turned out to be a few police officers!


    "Ah..." The woman screamed!


    Benjamin told the officers, "I''m going to charge her with breaking and entering, causing damage to my


    reputation, and I also suspect her of being amercial spy! And I''m going to sue this hotel too!"


    As soon as he finished speaking, the hotel manager came over and kept apologizing.


    The female star put on the clothes she had taken off one by one and cried while apologizing.


    In the end, they settled privately, and Benjamin received 2 million yuan inpensation for mental


    damages. He then changed to a presidential suite because he didn''t want to sleep on the bed where


    the woman had been.


    He came from a wealthy family and wasn''t the kind of man who would flock to female stars!


    Who knows if she had kissed an old man beforeing?


    Benjamin liked someone like Madelyn, pure and clean, someone who could be ced at home to


    admire. He wanted her even when she was sleeping, and even her blushing face made him want to


    tease her.


    Thinking of this, he missed her a lot...


    After taking a shower, Benjaminy in bed and called Madelyn.


    It waste at night.


    The phone rang several times before she answered, obviously asleep.


    "In the hospital or in the apartment?"


    Madelyn took a moment before responding, "In the apartment."


    Benjamin briefly asked about Samuel''s condition, and upon hearing that everything was fine, he didn''t


    say much more.


    After not seeing each other for half a month, he somewhat wanted to say some sweet words to her.


    Benjaminined lightly, "If you hade with me to Esrand, I wouldn''t have had to change rooms


    overnight."


    Madelyn was grateful to him.


    She made an effort to deal with him and casually asked a question.


    The man casually mentioned how he rejected a woman''s advances, and Madelyn was at a loss for


    words. But as a woman, her heart couldn''t help but feel a little moved.


    Benjamin knew just how to tug at a woman''s heartstrings.


    His voice was husky, "So, do you still doubt that all I want is to sleep with you, Madelyn? I don''tck


    that."


    Madelyn was caught off guard by his words.


    She went back and forth on whether she thought he was right or not. Benjamin took advantage of this


    to flirt with her.


    "Madelyn, talk to me!"


    "I want to hear your voice."


    "If you talk to me, I can..."


    The rest was indistinct, but even with her eyes closed, Madelyn knew what he was doing. Her face was


    burning with embarrassment.


    He was shameless.


    She muttered under her breath, "Benjamin, you jerk!"


    There was a softughing from the other side...


    Benjaminughed lightly, like a spring breeze brushing against Madelyn''s heart. His impatient voice


    came through the phone, "I really want to kiss you! Madelyn, my flight is tomorrow afternoon. Come to


    my ce in the evening, okay?"


    He knew it wasn''t the right time.


    He also knew that by bringing it up now, she would misunderstand, but he couldn''t help himself.


    He missed her, he really wanted to...


    He was eager!


    Madelyn listened to the noise on the other end and didn''t dare listen anymore, so she hung up the


    phone.


    Benjamin didn''t call back.


    She breathed a sigh of relief and rolled over, but just as she was about to fall asleep, her phone


    beeped.


    It was an audio message from Benjamin.


    Without suspecting anything, she opened it and suddenly a hoarse, impatient voice surrounded her


    small bedroom...


    Madelyn felt like she had been burned, and immediately threw her phone aside.


    She knew that Benjamin was good in this area, but she never expected him to be so shameless. At the


    same time, she was curious about how he managed to reject those women who invited him.


    In short, she didn''t sleep well that night.


    In the morning, when she got up and checked her phone, he had sent her flight information clearly


    indicating that he wanted her to pick him up.


    Madelyn didn''t want to!


    She pretended not to have received the information, and deleted all his messages, deciding to just go


    to his apartment at night.


    When Madelyn went to the music room, Penelope joked with her, "Madelyn, do you have a boyfriend?"


    Madelyn didn''t have the face to say anything, so she brushed it off vaguely.


    But Penelope''s gaze seemed to carry electricity, sweeping across her face before remarking, "I know,


    it''s still the old one."


    Madelyn, "..."


    Penelope quickly changed the subject and began talking about the operation of the music room.


    Madelyn couldn''t tell if it was just her imagination, but she felt like Penelope was keeping something


    from her. When they first started their partnership, they agreed that Penelope would handle the external


    matters, while Madelyn would handle the internal affairs.


    But now Penelope was teaching her everything about the outside world one by one.


    It was like she was grooming her to take over!


    Madelyn wasn''t dull, and hesitated before asking, "Penelope, are you keeping something from me?"


    Penelope was quite carefree.


    She smiled, "How could I? I just want you to learn more things so that you can be useful in any


    situation. And besides, you''re already in your thirties, who knows when you''ll find love? What if you get


    married and have children? Who will take care of our big project then? Won''t it be up to you?"


    It was a reasonable argument.


    Penelope got up and lightly patted Madelyn''s back.


    "Madelyn...the only thing that is truly in your control is your own career."


    "Don''t let this opportunity slip away."

 Chapter 160 Benjamin, I Cant Lose Again!

    Chapter 160 Benjamin, ICan''t Lose Again!


    Chapter 160 Benjamin, I Can''t Lose Again!


    Madelyn was quite moved.


    After graduating, Penelope had been a great help to her and was a mentor in her life.


    Watching her leave, Madelyn felt a hint of unease in her heart.


    She thought for a moment and went to the front desk.


    "Can you check Ms. Waylon''s attendance record recently?"


    The receptionist smiled and agreed.


    In less than five minutes, it was discovered that Penelope had taken three days off in the past half


    month.


    This only increased Madelyn''s suspicion.


    But if Penelope didn''t say anything, Madelyn didn''t want to pry into her privacy. She just took on more


    responsibilities at work...


    She was busy until she finished work.


    Benjamin called her.


    Madelyn knew what he wanted. She held her phone and softly said, "Okay."


    She got in the car and headed to Benjamin''s apartment.


    Madelyn wore a crimson wool skirt with a thin white coat over it.


    It was obvious that she had put a lot of thought into her outfit.


    She felt a little embarrassed, wondering how different it was from just giving herself to him to y with.


    She couldn''t imagine what might happen next, so she stepped on the gas pedal!


    When she arrived at Benjamin''s apartment, she thought he would be impatient and eager to do certain


    things with her. But she didn''t expect him to be genuinely busy.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    His luggage was in the living room, but Benjamin was in the study.


    He was holding his phone and seemed to be discussing a new case. He looked at Madelyn with deep


    eyes, but spoke to the person on the other end with a harsh tone, not showing any mercy.


    Madelyn felt a bit fragmented seeing him like this.


    This man was so different from the one who shamelessly flirted with her over the phonest night.


    She didn''t know what to do.


    Benjamin covered the phone and whispered to her, "Mom bought some groceries. Can you make


    something simple? I haven''t had lunch yet."


    She silently walked to the kitchen.


    Benjamin watched her back, his gaze deepening.


    Madelyn hadn''t been here in a few days, but when she opened the fridge, she found that the food


    inside had already been switched.


    She cooked rice and stir-fried several dishes that Benjamin liked.


    As she did this, her mind was no longer the same as before. Madelyn silently wondered: I wonder when


    Benjamin will get tired of me? Then he''ll go out and find new excitement.


    Suddenly, someone hugged her from behind. Benjamin lightly nibbled on her neck and spoke tenderly,


    "Do you me me for taking advantage of you?"


    Madelyn didn''t struggle. She came here to satisfy him and make him happy.


    She just softly asked back, "If I do, will you let me go?"


    Benjamin smiled faintly and didn''t answer that question. Instead, he teased her by whispering in her


    ear, "Did you like what I sent youst night? Do you want to hear the live version?"


    Madelyn bit her lip lightly. She had never seen a man who could flirt like this!


    She ignored him and brought the food to the dining room.


    Benjamin wasn''t upset. He watched her busy figure and suddenly felt fulfilled.


    It seemed that only with Madelyn in this apartment could it beplete.


    He ate his meal properly, but after that, he was a little less proper. He went to the counter and poured


    two sses of red wine.


    Madelyn looked up at him.


    Benjamin smiledzily, "What, do you want toe straight to the point?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to deal with those romantic gestures. Benjamin was too good at captivating


    people''s hearts. She was afraid that she couldn''t hold up. So she pretended to be very rxed, hooked


    his neck, and kissed his chin.


    "You want this, don''t you?"


    Benjamin didn''t want to act too fast, but he was a man with normal needs. He couldn''t resist this


    temptation.


    His gaze deepened, and he still had some desire for those romantic gestures.


    Madelyn smiled lightly as she tilted the red wine in her hand, pouring it all over his dark trousers.


    The deep red liquid dyed them even more, making them look like a mess.


    "Madelyn..."


    Benjamin''s voice became hoarse and unrecognizable. He really didn''t expect her to be so bold!


    If he continued to hold back, he wouldn''t be a man anymore!


    Madelyn was carried into the master bedroom by him.


    Red wine, the hot embrace of a man, and their light panting...but in the end, Madelyn still didn''t let go.


    Benjamin was somewhat disappointed.


    But he didn''t show it. Instead, he kissed Madelyn and whispered that it was okay.


    Madelyny on the sofa.


    She hugged his neck and said softly, "I''m okay, Benjamin, you cane now!"


    Benjamin didn''t say anything.


    His face was buried in her neck until he calmed down a bit before raising his body and gently caressing


    her delicate face... In fact, he knew he should take Madelyn to see a therapist."


    Because of that night, it scared her.


    But he couldn''t let go.


    He knew Madelyn valued her reputation, and going to see a therapist for this would be a real sacrifice.


    Benjamin''s voice was hoarse: "Madelyn, what are you afraid of? We''ve had good experiences before!"


    He gently got up and helped her adjust her skirt.


    Madelyn''s limbs went weak and she surrendered to his touches.


    Benjaminy down and pulled her into his arms, kissing her softly.


    "I told you, I want more than just sex with you."


    "We are a normal couple in a rtionship."


    "We lived together for a long time without doing it, and it was still okay?"


    ...


    He probably felt something again, pressing her with tender kisses and mumbling, "Madelyn..e


    spend New Year at my ce with my parents, hmm?"


    Madelyn froze.


    She knew Benjamin liked her, both her personality and body, he really did like her.


    But he didn''t want to get married!


    She didn''t take what he said about this rtionship seriously.


    But now, it seemed like he was serious!


    Madelyn wasn''t sure, at least not yet, if she was ready tomit to him after one act of kindness from


    him. It was too soon...besides, they had a big problem in that aspect of their rtionship.


    Benjamin wanted more, and she didn''t think he could resist for long.


    Madelyn gently pushed him away and turned around.


    Benjamin stared at her in the same position...


    After a while, Madelyn spoke softly, "Benjamin, I can only give you this! Either you let me go or you are


    willing to let me suffer a little. But the pain will pass after a while."


    Benjamin hugged her from behind.


    He bit her earlobe unwillingly, "I''m serious!"


    Madelyn smiled.


    She said, "Benjamin, I''m serious too! All the feelings and love you have, they''re really attractive and


    make me feel moved, but I can''t lose again!"


    Madelyn spoke with a trembling voice.


    Benjamin rarely felt sorry for women, but he was a little sorry for her now.


    He turned her body around.


    Sure enough, Madelyn''s eyes were slightly red...


    She continued to speak with a trembling voice, "Benjamin, I can''t lose again!"


    She had been serious about him before.


    But time and time again, cruel reality showed her that Eleanor was an insurmountable gap between


    them. Eleanor and Benjamin were both Rh-negative blood, William not only had a history with


    Alexander, but also saved Eloise''s life...


    Eleanor wouldn''t let go.


    What did Madelyn have to fight with? What did she have to be happy about?


    Since she couldn''t see any hope, she''d rather not have any at all!

 Chapter 161 It Was Really A Gentle Night!

    Chapter 161 It Was Really A Gentle Night!


    Chapter 161 It Was Really A Gentle Night!


    After Madelyn finished speaking, she still cried.


    She had liked him before, maybe she still did now.


    Even though the person in front of her had many ws, even though he had a bad temper and was


    introverted, and especially loved doing that kind of thing, Madelyn knew in her heart.


    She liked him!


    But no matter how much she liked him, she could only guard her own heart.


    She didn''t want to be a mess!


    Benjamin gently wiped the corner of her eye with his warm fingertips, but the gentler he was, the harder


    Madelyn cried... In the end, she couldn''t stop herself.


    He simply hugged her and lit a cigarette for himself.


    Benjamin leaned against the sofa, slowly smoking, looking dashing and attractive.


    Any woman would want to pounce on him.


    Madelyn didn''t speak, she just clung to him, silently shedding tears.


    Her tears stained his shirt, hot and ufortable, but Benjamin let her be with her little temper...


    He smoked more than half a cigarette before asking softly.


    "Shall we try again?"


    "This time we''ll take it slow, if you don''t want to do this kind of thing, we won''t do it, I just want you to


    feelfortable!"


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t say anything.


    And Benjamin also knew what kind of person he was in her heart!


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    He was actually really busy, he didn''t have many women before Madelyn appeared, so naturally he


    wouldn''t act so urgently.


    But when a woman he likes is always around at home.


    If he didn''t do it, wasn''t he an idiot?


    He probably guessed Madelyn''s thoughts. He had seen her dating Bryson, going to art exhibitions and


    enjoying fireworks together... things that Benjamin didn''t value.


    "Only a wimp would y these games!" he thought.


    However, he was immensely relieved that Madelyn had been dating Bryson for 10 days.


    If it had been David instead, things might have been different!


    He understood her thoughts and knew exactly how to please her.


    "Tomorrow...shall we go to a concert?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to!


    She didn''t want to go out with him.


    Benjamin knew best how to deal with her, lit another cigarette, took a deep puff, and sprayed softly


    towards her, "If you don''t want to date, we can go to a hotel?"


    Madelyn was angry.


    She got up to leave, but Benjamin pulled her back gently and said, "I''ll take you! Wait for my call


    tomorrow, I''ll have Paisley make the reservations."


    This time, Madelyn didn''t say anything.


    She gave in somewhat...


    Benjamin was tired, and he hadn''t seeded yet, but pursuing a woman requires a time cost.


    He drove her back to her apartment.


    When he made it clear that he''s chasing after a woman, he was so considerate.


    The next day when Madelyn woke up, her white BMW was already parked downstairs.


    Benjamin''s driver didn''t wake her up but stood by the car, which made Madelyn quite embarrassed.


    She took the car key and thanked him.


    The driver was good at talking, "Mr. rk instructed me not to wake Ms. Green."


    Madelyn nodded and thanked him again.


    She got into the car and received a call from Cam.


    Cam said on the phone that Benjamin had gone to visit someone early in the morning and brought a


    lot of precious supplements.


    Cam couldn''t figure out their current rtionship.


    So, she asked Madelyn.


    Madelyn lightly stroked the steering wheel and whispered, "You should ept them!"


    Cam was somewhat happy. She really liked Benjamin and hoped he could have a result with


    Madelyn.


    She hung up the phone...


    Madelyn looked at her phone, struggling inside.


    For her, Benjamin was like a candy-coated poison. She knew there was poison inside, but the outside


    was too sweet and she couldn''t resist it.


    In the end, she sent a WhatsApp message saying, "Thank you, Mr. rk."


    ...


    The following week, Benjamin was a perfect gentleman.


    He apanied Madelyn to tour Gredax, ying high-ss art or famous restaurants.


    He even went to the Priburnian restaurant where Madelyn had eaten with Bryson.


    As luck would have it, he also met Bryson and his fianc¨¦e. "


    The scene was particrly awkward.


    Madelyn red at Benjamin and asked softly, "Did you do this on purpose?"


    Benjaminughed happily.


    "Yes! I brought you here to see your ex-boyfriend''s true colors."


    "You see, they are a perfect match!"


    ...


    Bryson also saw them.


    Despite having his well-to-do and beautiful fianc¨¦e by his side, he still lost his mind... His fianc¨¦e talked


    for a long time before he regained his senses and responded.


    Madelyn was speechless, and Benjamin became bored and really bored.


    On the way back.


    She sat next to him, watching him buckle his seatbelt from the side of her eye and asked softly, "Why


    do you care so much about Bryson?"


    Benjamin turned his head to give her a nce.


    He was silent for a long time and said softly, "Because I know that Bryson is your ideal marriage


    partner. If it weren''t for his domineering mother, you two would probably be together."


    Madelyn didn''t deny it.


    Benjamin didn''t say anything else because the topic was unpleasant.


    He sent Madelyn back, and when she got out of the car, he held her back.


    "The day after tomorrow is New Year''s Eve. Come stay over at my ce! I''ll have ire prepare a


    table full of dishes."


    Madelyn hesitated for a moment.


    "There''s a gathering in the music room tomorrow night."


    Benjamin was considerate, "Drink less, and I''lle pick you up when it''s over."


    He was so amodating that Madelyn couldn''t refuse.


    She murmured an agreement.


    Benjamin pressed her against the back of the chair and kissed her deeply for a long time before


    speaking hoarsely, "Dress nicely the day after tomorrow, Madelyn... it''s our first New Year''s Eve


    together."


    Madelyn looked at him in surprise...


    Outside the car window, snowkes began to fall.


    Warm and soft, they softened the night and brought them closer together.


    Benjamin knew when to stop.


    He escorted her upstairs and didn''t ask to stay overnight. When he went downstairs, Madelyn couldn''t


    help but walk to the window.


    It was a winter night with snowkes floating in the air, and when she breathed out, white mist


    appeared...


    Benjamin stood under the dim yellow streetlight, leaning against his golden Continental and smoking a


    cigarette. Even his exhales exuded a strong masculine scent.


    Madelyn held a cup of hot cocoa and watched him quietly.


    She thought it was really a gentle night.


    Benjamin smoked two more cigarettes and flicked the butts onto the ground before looking up at


    Madelyn with deep eyes.


    She didn''t have time to hide.


    She had to meet his gaze.


    Benjamin smiled lightly, a little mischievous and very manly.


    He waved at Madelyn and got into the car.


    The golden Continental didn''t immediately drive away. After a while, Madelyn received a message from


    Benjamin.


    [Miss me?]


    ...


    Just a few simple words kept Madelyn awake all night.


    If it weren''t for that dark night, she might have thrown herself into his arms immediately.


    She had been enveloped in honey before, and although she was afraid, she also had the needs of a


    woman. After being strung along by Benjamin for so many days, she also had some desires...


    She guessed that he wouldn''t let her go the day after tomorrow.


    Madelyn didn''t know if she was secretly looking forward to it, but on New Year''s Eve, she did dress up


    seriously.


    Champagne-colored silk maxi dress wrapped around her body, particrly enticing. Outside, she wore


    a thin white down jacket that could be removed to admire her graceful curves...


    Madelyn blushed as she applied her makeup and even despised herself.


    She knew that Benjamin had lured her...

 Chapter 162 Benjamin, Be Gentle To Me!

    Chapter 162 Benjamin, BeGentle ToMe!


    Chapter 162 Benjamin, Be Gentle To Me!


    The banquet was lively and colorful.


    With a capacity for 200 people, the dinner was exquisite, and Penelope had even invited the famous


    emcee Gredax to host, creating a great atmosphere.


    Madelyn, as one of the partners, couldn''t avoid drinking and socializing.


    Vivian helped her fend off quite a bit.


    The two girls were in the bathroom, touching up their makeup.


    Madelyn looked at Vivian with concern and asked, "I saw you drinking quite a bit just now. Are you


    okay?"


    "I''m fine! What could possibly happen?" Vivian''s expression was yful, deliberately pulling down her


    neckline to reveal some cleavage. "It''s sexy! Grayson loves it. He''s like a dog when he gets into bed,


    all over the ce, biting and nibbling."


    She spoke whileughing, her body shaking with mirth.


    However, Madelyn knew that Vivian wasn''t feeling good inside.


    Vivian hadn''tpletely moved on from her marriage with Jackson, and those sexual encounters were


    just a way to numb herself. When she woke up sober in bed, the feeling of emptiness was unbearable.


    Madelyn patted her gently and said, "Vivian, you''ve had too much to drink."


    Vivian flipped her hair and smiled, but she also showed concern for Madelyn''s private affairs.


    During Samuel''s hospitalization, Vivian had gone to visit and happened to bump into Benjamin.


    At that time, Vivian knew that things weren''tpletely over between Madelyn and Benjamin.


    Vivian asked, and Madelyn didn''t hide anything, whispering softly, "We haven''t reconciled yet. It''s just


    physical."


    Vivian fell silent for a moment before telling Madelyn, "Eleanor got married! The wedding was just these


    past two days, and all the rk family went to Ennd for it, but Benjamin didn''t go. Probably to avoid


    suspicion!"


    Madelyn was surprised.


    She really didn''t know about this.


    Vivian had drunk too much and leaned her head lightly on Madelyn''s shoulder, crying vulnerably.


    "Madelyn, we seem to be helpless."


    "We''ve both fallen in love with the wrong man!"


    ...


    Vivian was disappointed in Jackson, and Grayson was just a bedmate to her.


    But after sleeping together for a long time, feelings inevitably arose.


    She didn''t want to get emotionally involved, but she seemed to have lost control.


    With red eyes, Vivian said, "Madelyn, I''m already like this. You should find a good man to marry!"


    Madelyn knew Vivian had drunk too much.


    To avoid losing herposure in public, Madelyn took her phone and called Grayson.


    At first, Grayson thought it was Vivian and said directly, "When are youing back? I''ve been losing


    quite a bit of money ying cards by myself."


    Madelyn spoke softly, "I''m Madelyn. Vivian''s a little drunk. Can youe and pick her up?"


    Grayson immediately threw down his cards. "Where are you? I''lle over right away."


    Grayson arrived quickly, dressed not very warmly for nearing the new year, but there was always that


    smell of a well-dressed young yboy.


    Moreover, he had a woman''s perfume on him.


    Madelyn instinctively didn''t like it.


    Grayson, on the other hand, looked very enthusiastic when he saw her and called her sister-inw as


    soon as he took Vivian.


    Madelyn said ndly, "Bryson and I have nothing going on. Don''t call me that again."


    Grayson looked at Madelyn and smiled.


    Bryson was causing chaos at home, and he didn''t want to bring that up. But he could still tease her a


    little.


    "Whether it''s with Bryson or Ben, you''re still my sister-inw!"


    Madelyn said lightly, "My affairs don''t concern you."


    She looked at Vivian and softened her voice, "Take care of Vivian."


    Grayson was taken aback.


    In his impression, Vivian was a fool, while Madelyn didn''t show much empathy. He didn''t expect her to


    care about Vivian.


    Grayson sighed and left with Vivian.


    ...


    Madelyn sent Vivian away and washed her hands.


    Jackson''s family was big, but not respectable! Grayson had many traits of a second-generation rich,


    but even so, she hoped he could protect Vivian.


    Madelyn worried about Vivian.


    She stood alone at the window in the aisle, looking at Gredax''s night view for a long time.


    Tonight was New Year''s Eve, and everywhere was lively, but... there were also many people who had


    nowhere to go.


    Benjamin''s call came at this moment.


    His voice was unbelievably gentle in the winter night.


    "Do you want me toe up?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to be too sticky, nor did she want to mix her personal life with work. She said softly,


    "Just a minute. Wait for me in the car."


    Benjaminughed lightly.


    Madelyn''s face turned red, she thought it must be because of the red wine she drank.


    When she went downstairs, it was already close to 10 pm.


    Benjamin''s golden Continental was parked under the hotel building, and he was standing under a


    streetmp, rare without smoking.


    His noble appearance attracted many women''s attention.


    Madelyn walked up to him.


    Benjamin hugged her and murmured, "I''ve been thinking about you all night."


    There was no woman who didn''t love to hear such sweet words, and Madelyn was no exception.


    She looked up, her eyes particrly moist.


    Benjamin held her, opened the car door for her with one hand, and helped her into the car.


    The car was very warm. After Madelyn got in, she naturally took off her coat and turned her head to


    see Benjamin''s deep gaze.


    "Benjamin, what''s wrong?"


    ...


    Benjamin lightly stroked her body and his voice was slightly hoarse, "You look good without your coat."


    Madelyn blushed.


    Benjamin''s tone was gentle, "Paisley said your father has been discharged from the hospital."


    Madelyn gave a sound of agreement.


    She wanted to thank him, but Benjamin put a slender finger on her lips.


    "Tonight, we''re just on a date!"


    Madelyn leaned back in her chair and looked at his handsome and charming appearance... Benjamin


    had restrained himself for a long time. He didn''t know how he would tease her tonight!


    Just thinking about it made her legs weak!


    Benjamin lightly stepped on the elerator, and the car didn''t move fast.


    Sincest night, Gredax''s light snow had been falling non-stop, adding a romantic touch, but it didn''t


    umte on the ground.


    Along the way, the two remained silent.


    It was probably a tacit understanding between them.


    Also... maybe because it had been too long since they had done anything like this, both of them were a


    bit awkward and couldn''t loosen up.


    What Madelyn didn''t expect was that when she arrived at Benjamin''s apartment, ire was still there.


    ire had heard that Madelyn wasing and was overjoyed.


    "Ms. Green, happy New Year!"


    Madelyn was quite embarrassed.


    But Benjamin, as if nothing had happened, took out a thick red envelope from his pocket and handed it


    to ire.


    "Ms. Green''s gift."


    The red envelope contained at least ten thousand dors.


    ire smiled from ear to ear and said many auspicious words.


    Madelyn didn''t want to be inappropriate and chatted politely with her for a while before ire left with


    the gift.


    Luxurious restaurant.


    A table full of dishes had already been set up, and it was as sumptuous as a New Year''s Eve dinner.


    By the time Madelyn put down her coat, Benjamin had already poured two sses of red wine.


    He smiled handsomely, "Don''t spill it on my pants this time, otherwise... wherever you spill it...You''ll..."


    Madelyn didn''t let him finish.


    Benjamin looked deep into her eyes, "Alright, let''s eat!"


    If he said he was pursuing her, then he was serious, and eating well was part of that.


    Madelyn felt somewhat valued.


    This feeling was naturally good, but she still wanted to ask him about Eleanor''s marriage, but since


    Benjamin didn''t mention it, she didn''t ask either.


    Butter, she saw the newspaper in the trash can.


    The headline was a photo of Eleanor''s wedding.


    Madelyn was stunned. Eleanor had really gotten married...


    Someone hugged her from behind, and Benjamin''s thin lips were pressed against her earlobe, "What


    are you looking at?"


    Then, he saw it. Benjamin spoke in a calm tone, "My parents and Eloise went to Monatiz."


    Madelyn naturally didn''t ask why he didn''t go, she wasn''t that insensitive.


    Tonight was supposed to be enjoyable, despite this little interruption.


    However, this did not affect Benjamin''s mood. When Madelyn didn''t react, all the crystal chandeliers in


    the hall turned off, leaving only a small orange night light.


    In the dim light, the atmosphere became ambiguous.


    Madelyn hugged his neck, thinking he would want to make a move.


    But he didn''t, instead holding her close. "I''ll y the piano for you." he said.


    Madelyn never knew that Benjamin could y the piano, but with such an intention, no woman would


    refuse.


    However, she didn''t expect him to pull her onto hisp.


    "Benjamin..." Madelyn tilted her head slightly, her voice filled with unease.


    Benjamin lightly touched her chin and turned his head to kiss her, lingeringly kissing her for a long


    time...even the air heated up ambiguously.


    Madelyn was kissed until she lost her strength, leaning against him.


    Her face was red and hot.


    She thought, fortunately the light was dim, otherwise he would definitely make fun of her.


    At that moment, the sound of the piano rang out.


    It was Moonlight Sonata, which she liked...


    Outside, gentle snow was falling.


    Inside the apartment was warm, and she was in his arms, intimately entwined with him.


    At this moment, even a heart of stone would melt, let alone her who had always liked him. Madelyn''s


    heart softened.


    She had also drunk alcohol, so her emotions were even stronger.


    Benjamin was also affected, but he wasn''t like a young boy, instead gently insisting on giving her a


    beautiful night...


    She sat on hisp, and she knew exactly how he felt.


    Madelyn also had desires as a woman, and sitting on hisp for two hours had already had feelings.


    She really wanted...wanted him to kiss her...


    "Benjamin!" Her voice was full of moisture.


    He clearly knew what she wanted, but he pretended not to, asking her instead, "What''s wrong,


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Madelyn?"


    Madelyn couldn''t stand it anymore.


    She turned around, boldly sitting in his arms, tilting her head up to kiss him actively.


    The snow continued to fall...


    Therge French window reflected the intertwined figures of a man and a woman. Benjamin suddenly


    lifted her onto the piano...


    The piano immediately shook!


    "Benjamin..."


    "Benjamin...don''t torture me like this!"


    Madelyn''s voice and the sound of the piano merged together, unable to distinguish between crying or


    trembling. Her pitiful state made her feel extremely ashamed, but she couldn''t care about that anymore.


    She wanted him to do more to her.


    Tonight, Benjamin was particrly bold.


    He leaned down to kiss her, but didn''t actually do anything. He hoarsely called her name.


    "Madelyn, feel it carefully. It''ll be different!"


    ...


    Madelyn opened her eyes and looked at him.


    Her eyes were moist with tears, pitiful and watery. Benjamin had never done this kind of thing to a


    woman before, but tonight he wanted to make her happy...


    He covered Madelyn''s eyes.


    In front of her was darkness, but her body was under his spell.


    She trembled lightly in fear, only able to call his name over and over again, hoarse and quiet.


    Benjamin...


    Benjamin...


    Benjamin...Ben...jamin...

 Chapter 163 Madelyn Is Williams Daughter

    Chapter 163Madelyn Is William''s Daughter


    Chapter 163 Madelyn Is William''s Daughter


    Madelyn felt like she had been pulled out of water.


    On this Chinese New Year''s Eve, Benjamin gave her an experience she had never had before,


    subverting all her previous knowledge.


    The lights were suddenly turned on.


    He kissed her, admiring the way her face turned red.


    "Madelyn, you look so beautiful right now. Do you want to see?"


    Madelyn covered her eyes.


    She didn''t want to see, not at all!


    But Benjamin picked her up and headed straight for the bathroom in the master bedroom. Madelyn


    leaned against his shoulder, biting the flesh on his shoulder hard, but it was no use.


    He pressed her from behind against the sink, holding onto her waist and admiring her with her.


    "Madelyn, your face was even redder just now."


    He whispered shamelessly into her ear.


    Madelyn wanted to escape, but as soon as she turned around, he turned her back again!


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    He gently pinched her delicate and small face and lifted it towards the mirror.


    Madelyn knew that she was a mess right now. Even if she looked presentable now, she was yed by


    him into that state just now...


    Madelyn knew that he didn''t have loose private life, but he was still in that circle.


    She wondered if he understood women better than those people like Grayson.


    Did excellent people do better in all aspects, even in such situations?


    She closed her eyes lightly and begged him softly.


    "Benjamin, don''t do this!"


    Benjamin had teased her enough.


    He still held her and admired her appearance in the mirror with great care. He also helped her


    straighten her dress carefully. Then he couldn''t resist saying, "Don''t go back tonight! I won''t do


    anything, we''ll just spend the night together."


    They both had to be with their families on New Year.


    So tonight, he wanted to celebrate the new year early with her.


    Madelyn calmed down a bit.


    She slowly opened her eyes, and her ears were red.


    For her, tonight was like the first snow of winter melting away. With all the romantic things he had done


    for her, no woman could resist.


    Madelyn didn''t want things to progress too quickly.


    She hesitated for a moment and said softly, "I should still go back!"


    Benjamin was a little disappointed, but he still respected her. He just held her and said softly, "Stay with


    me a little longer, Madelyn... I want you to apany me."


    The things he meant by "apany", of course, were those that made their faces turn red and their


    hearts beat faster.


    When she left, Madelyn''s face was flushed to her neck.


    She had a sense that their cohabitation and the games Benjamin yed with her were childish and he


    had never taken it seriously.


    Late at night.


    The golden European car slowly drove into the residential area where Madelyn lived.


    After parking the car, Benjamin looked at the time and said, "It''s already three o''clock. Madelyn, can I


    Madelyn shook her head gently.


    But Benjamin refused to let her get out of the car and held her in his arms.


    This kind of embrace was the most heart-warming.


    After an unknown period of time...


    Madelyn leaned against his shoulder and whispered softly, "Benjamin, I''m going upstairs."


    Benjamin lowered his head to look at her.


    His gaze was deep, always carrying that hint of desire. "Move back to my ce after the new year,


    okay?"


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    She gently lifted herself up in his arms.


    She knew that tonight was too ambiguous, so he made this request. It wasn''t his fault.


    She hadn''t exined it clearly. "


    Madelyn gentlybed her hair with her slender and fair fingers before speaking cautiously,


    "Benjamin, isn''t it good like this between us? You like being with me, and I can give you that. As for


    other things... let''s talk about itter!"


    Benjamin frowned.


    He was used to being chased by people because of his status, but it was the first time he had ever


    pursued a woman like this. Besides, he had shown her his greatest tenderness tonight.


    He had already done enough intimate things with her!


    He sat up straight and ran his beautiful hands over the steering wheel.


    "Do Ick that?"


    "Madelyn, what I want is a serious rtionship,"


    Madelyn didn''t reply.


    In truth, Madelyn couldn''tpletely trust him, and despite Eleanor getting married, she still felt


    uneasy.


    She chose to protect herself, and there was nothing wrong with that.


    Benjamin''s spoiled temper red up, and he spoke harshly, "Madelyn, are you just going to forget


    about it after you''ve enjoyed yourself? You weren''t so indifferent when I was taking care of you!"


    He twisted her cheeks. "Should I give you a refresher?"


    Madelyn pushed away his hand.


    She wasn''t afraid of him, but her face turned red. "It was your choice, not my demand!"


    Benjamin''s gaze grew deeper.


    Madelyn felt that continuing the conversation would only lead to an unpleasant oue, so she


    opened the door and got out of the car.


    Her hand was caught.


    Her body fell into his embrace.


    Benjamin pressed his lips against her ear and murmured in apology, "I was wrong! I was too impatient!


    Madelyn... I really want to be with you seriously, not just for physical intimacy."


    He still didn''t want to get married, but Madelyn did.


    He wanted to live together for a while longer, and if they didn''t have any major shes, they would get


    married. Madelyn was perfect for him.


    He didn''t want to let her go.


    Madelyn heard those harsh words and wasn''t persuaded.


    She still wanted to get out of the car.


    Benjamin hugged her tightly and refused to let her go.


    Finally, he held her petite head and smiled flirtatiously.


    "You feelfortable now, so you''re ignoring me?"


    "Benjamin... who''s ying whom?" Madelyn retorted.


    Madelyn was so angry that her brow was furrowed with veins popping out, but she looked tempting to


    Benjamin, who couldn''t resist leaning in for a kiss.


    No matter how much she struggled, he wouldn''t let her leave the car.


    That night, he stayed with her in the car all night.


    Madelyn felt somewhat enamored.


    She was a little desperate because she couldn''t resist Benjamin''s charm. As long as he put in a little


    effort, she surrenderedpletely.


    But she didn''t want to show it!


    As the sky began to brighten, Madelyn woke up from Benjamin''s embrace.


    His phone had been ringing non-stop, but Benjamin seemed tired and hadn''t woken up.


    Madelyn nudged him, "Benjamin, your phone."


    Benjamin woke up.


    His handsome and slightly charming eyes looked at her before he took hold of her small face and


    kissed her.


    "You have... a phone call."


    Madelyn was panting.


    He was really like that hadn''t seen a woman in several lifetimes so he just wanted to kiss her anytime


    and do something. But men like Benjamin always wanted her body, and she couldn''t deny her


    happiness for that.


    Benjaminughed and let go of her.


    He was about to answer the phone, but his face darkened when he saw the caller ID, and then he hung


    up.


    After Madelyn was surprised, she understood.


    It was Eleanor''s call.


    She didn''t say anything and wanted to get out of the car, but Benjamin pulled her back and held her


    tightly in his arms.


    "Madelyn, there''s nothing between us!"


    "She''s married!"


    ...


    Madelyn made a soft sound.


    But she didn''t think that Eleanor had stopped bothering them, or else she wouldn''t have called so early


    in the morning. In fact, it was probably only the third day of Eleanor''s marriage!


    She couldn''t wait to call her first love?


    Monatiz, Dimont.


    Eleanor was wearing a sexyce nightgown sitting in the living room.


    There were sounds of men and women ying downstairs in the servants'' quarters, which was quite


    ambiguous.


    That was her husband and the maid having an affair, and she chose to turn a blind eye because she


    didn''t love him at all!


    At this moment, Eleanor''s gaze was cold.


    She was staring at a letter in her hand.


    It was sent by Gredax, a sessful jeweler who briefly regained consciousness after treatment and


    sent the information William wanted to know through a letter.


    William had been looking for his biological child!


    That jeweler found a clue.


    The letter included a photo, a photo that Eleanor couldn''t be more familiar with...


    It was Madelyn!"

 Chapter 164 Benjamin, Lets Try Again!

    Chapter 164 Benjamin, Let''s Try Again!


    Chapter 164 Benjamin, Let''s Try Again!


    Benjamin never answered her calls.


    Was he... in love with Madelyn?


    Madelyn, who was actually Daddy''s biological daughter!


    How could this be!


    How could she take everything that belongs to her!


    Eleanor''s face twisted into a paranoid expression, a hint of coldughter at the corner of her mouth.


    So what if she was William''s real daughter?


    As long as she destroyed the evidence and took care of that half-dead jewelry merchant, no one would


    know the truth, and Eleanor would be William''s only Eloise on hand!


    Eleanorughed lightly.


    She tore the letter to shreds!


    Downstairs, her husband was sleeping with the nanny again, making a lot of noise andpletely


    ignoring his new wife...


    Eleanor didn''t care anymore!


    New Year''s Eve in Gredax.


    At the end of the year, Benjamin had many social engagements, and they hadn''t seen each other for


    several days.


    Madelyn spent the New Year with Mr. and Mrs. Green.


    "Oh... the pipe burst!"


    Cam eximed from the kitchen, her apron soaked with water dripping onto the floor.


    Samuel quickly said, "Quickly change your clothes, don''t catch a cold."


    Cam felt warm being cared for by her husband.


    She walked towards the bedroom, saying to Madelyn, "Maddie, call the property management toe


    and fix the pipes, otherwise we won''t be able to have our New Year''s dinner."


    Madelyn nodded.


    She found the property management number and gave them a call.


    The property management was fast, and roughly half an hourter the doorbell rang. Madelyn went to


    answer it.


    When the door opened, Benjamin was standing outside.


    Dark blue shirt, gray wool trousers.


    A high-end dark gray coat.


    Mature and handsome!


    Madelyn was stunned and asked, "Why did youe over?"


    Benjamin looked at her, his gaze somewhat tender. "I just finished work and came over."


    Madelyn wanted to talk to him outside.


    Cam changed her clothes and came out, just in time to see Benjamin. "Ben''s here!"


    Benjamin took the opportunity to go in, gantly cing the gift he brought on the entryway and taking


    off his coat to hand it to Madelyn. "The office is busy, otherwise I would havee to visit Mr. Green

    earlier."


    Cam was happy.


    "It''s so happy to see you! You don''t have to bring gifts."


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn and slowly said, "It''s the first year, so it should be done."


    Cam understood what he meant.


    She calmly looked at Samuel and had him bring out the rules of conduct.


    Samuel also understood.


    Benjamin really wanted to pursue his girl, but the parents on both sides haven''t met each other yet. No


    matter whose family they eat dinner at for New Year''s Eve, it was not proper.


    Samuel smiled and said, "The end of the year is busier! Madelyn, make some coffee for Benjamin. He


    still has to go home for New Year''s Eve dinner."


    Cam prepared coffee.


    As she poured coffee, she said, "Madelyn, ask the property management why the pipe fixer hasn''t


    arrived yet?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to deal with Benjamin, so she thought about going back to her room to make the


    call.


    But Benjamin said, "Mrs. Green, let me try to fix it!"


    Camughed happily.


    "Ben, can you even do this? Don''t... you might get your clothes dirty."


    "It''s no problem."


    ...


    Benjamin rolled up his sleeves and got to work with tools in hand.


    Cam had Madelyn assist him.


    The narrow kitchen door closed shut. Madelyn and Benjamin crouched side by side, with her watching


    his skilled movements in surprise, "I didn''t expect you to be able to do this!"


    Benjamin looked at her with deep eyes and smiled gently after a while, "I''m good at doing many


    things!"


    Madelyn blushed slightly.


    He meant something else!


    And indeed, Benjamin was not exaggerating. He fixed the water pipes quickly and efficiently in just a


    few minutes.


    It''s said that men are most attractive when they''re working. Madelyn had never experienced it before,


    but now she was by his side, looking at his handsome profile, she felt a little fluttery.


    Benjamin finished packing up and turned his head with a teasing smile.


    "What are you thinking? Have you never seen such a handsome man before?"


    Madelyn felt ufortable and wanted to get up.


    But Benjamin wouldn''t let her go. He leaned in close to her and whispered, "I have to go home for


    dinner tonight! Later we''ll go out on a date, I have a New Year''s gift for you."


    Madelyn hesitated a bit, she was tempted... but...


    Benjamin looked at her deeply, then suddenly leaned in and kissed her on the cheek.


    ...


    "Is it done, Ben?"


    The door opened lightly, and Cam caught them stealing a kiss.


    Madelyn blushed and didn''t know how to react, while Benjamin shamelessly got up to wash his hands


    and said with a smile, "Cam... I want to take Madelyn out to buy some New Year''s goodster, I''ve


    been busy these days and haven''t had a chance to take her out properly."


    Cam naturally agreed, "Young people should go out more."


    ...


    After washing his hands and straightening his shirt, Benjamin politely said, "Before dinner, I''ll send


    Madelyn back. Next week, I want to take her home to meet my parents, and I think I should let you


    know first."


    Cam suppressed her joy and let Madelyn change her clothes to go on a date with Benjamin.


    Ten minutester, Madelyn sat in the golden Continental car.


    She bit her lip lightly, "I didn''t agree to meet your parents."


    Benjamin lit a cigarette and rested his hand outside the window...


    He smiled teasingly, "If I met your parents, shouldn''t you meet mine? Or do you think that getting


    married doesn''t require telling our parents and we can just make a private arrangement?"


    Madelyn turned her head in anger.


    Benjamin held a cigarette in one hand and grabbed her head in the other.


    He kissed her...


    After kissing for a long time, he leaned his forehead against hers and murmured, "You don''t need to tell


    them when we sleep together, but you still need to tell them when we get married."


    Madelyn didn''t want to rush things.


    She asked him, "Didn''t you say you have a New Year''s gift for me?"


    Benjamin smiled and stubbed out his cigarette, then started the car.


    The car headed towards his apartment, but halfway through, he stopped the car once.


    Benjamin got out and bought a pack of cigarettes, as well as a small box that he put on the console.


    Madelyn was angry and blushed.


    She turned away from him slightly, "Benjamin, is this your New Year''s gift to me?"


    Benjamin buckled his seatbelt and brushed her blushing face lightly,ughing softly, "Did you think that


    this was meant for you, Ms. Green? Are you thinking about having sex with me when you see this?"


    He shamelessly teased her, but Madelyn couldn''t be bothered to deal with him.


    Benjamin sat up straight and looked ahead.


    He coughed lightly, "Um... Madelyn... am I good in bed?"


    This was a topic that Madelyn couldn''t talk about.


    She had never been with anyone else except Benjamin, but she could vaguely guess that Benjamin


    had a high demand for sex and was very skilled at it.


    She didn''t say anything, but the blush on her face told him the answer.


    Everything else after that was natural.


    Adults didn''t need to say too much, just a nce could tell each other''s desires.


    As soon as they entered the apartment, Benjamin embraced Madelyn from behind. Her waist was


    particrly slender, and he liked it very much. He hugged her back and whispered, "In the living room


    or the bedroom... hmm?"


    Madelyn was lost in the sensation of being kissed by him.


    She tilted her head slightly and tensed her fair neck...


    "Let''s go to the bedroom..."


    "Benjamin... don''t..."

 Chapter 165 Madelyn, Do You Like the Diamond Ring

    Chapter 165 Madelyn, Do You Like the Diamond Ring


    Chapter 165 Madelyn, Do You Like the Diamond Ring


    Benjamin must have been waiting to have sex for a long time.


    He had sex with her all afternoon. Madelyn couldn''t count how many times he did climax...


    It was dusk when she woke up.


    The faint golden sunlight flooded in, and her bedroom was haloed in yellow.


    Madelyn felt limp and run down and could barely move.


    "You''re awake."


    Benjamin''s voice rang out.


    Madelyn looked over at him and saw that he changed into fresh clothes after a shower.


    He was well-dressed and handsome.


    Madelyn blushed a little.


    She pulled the covers over herself and sat up softly. "What time is it?"


    Benjamin walked over, sat down on the edge of the bed, stroked her delicate face, and said in a


    muffled voice, "We''ve had sex four times."


    "Benjamin... Stop it!"


    ...


    Benjamin smiled and then called out toward the outside.


    There was a pattering of walking on the floor.


    Madelyn looked at Benjamin...


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    A charming smile broke on Benjamin''s lips. "This is my New Year''s gift to you. See if you like it."


    Just as he finished speaking, a little white dog entered the bedroom.


    This was the little white dog that Madelyn used to feed.


    Snowy looked different now. Its fur was shaved, and it wore a beautiful cor.


    Madelyn was so surprised. She wanted to hug the dog, but she had no clothes on.


    Benjamin picked up the dog.


    He removed a small object from Snowy''s neck and said, "I have Snowy neutered, and it''s yours now."


    Madelyn didn''t notice the object in his hand and happily petted the dog.


    It was indeed a great New Year''s gift.


    Snowy recognized Madelyn and tamely let her pet him.


    After she yed with the dog for a while, Benjamin let the dog go out. He took Madelyn''s hand and


    said in a husky voice, "I have another gift for you!"


    He held Madelyn''s hand in one hand and had a pear-shaped diamond ring in the other.


    The colorful shes were beautiful, and it was a perfectly refined cut!


    Madelyn was stunned.


    She had just had sex with him. Her body went limp, and her heart melted.


    He gave her the diamond ring.


    A diamond ring meant something to women, and Madelyn was more or less surprised.


    Benjamin''s voice was particrly gentle. "Madelyn... Do you like it? Let me put it on you."


    Madelyn''s heart was racing.


    Wrapped in a quilt, she snuggled up to him, and her slender fingers curled uncontrobly. "Benjamin..."


    Benjamin''s eyes were loving. "Don''t you want it?"


    How could she not want it?


    No woman didn''t want a diamond ring!


    Not to mention that the ring was from the man she loved...


    Things started to get a bit sexy. Madelyn slowly straightened her palm, and his eyes fell on her hand.


    Benjamin put the ring on her middle finger...


    The size of the ring fitted well on her, and the ring looked good on her hand.


    A lost look shed across Madelyn''s eyes. He didn''t put the ring on her ring finger.


    Benjamin leaned over and kissed her.


    He said in a hoarse and low voice, I''ll get you another ring when we get married, okay?


    Madelyn meekly tilted her head and let him kiss her. Because of this special gift, their rtionship took


    a step further. She thought he was getting serious about their rtionship, and she also wanted to get


    serious about him.


    Madelyn loved him.


    She thought to herself that even if Eleanor was back in the country, she would still be brave enough to


    be in love with Benjamin.


    They might have a happy future.


    When Madelyn let her guard down, she was much bolder when she made love to him. He pulled away


    the quilt on her naked body. She was shy, but she sat meekly in his arms and kissed him lovingly...


    Her long brown hair became a little sweaty.


    She wore her long hair down her snow-white back...


    ...


    It was 5:30 after they had sex.


    When Madelyn was getting dressed, she remembered that they spent a lot of time together but hadn''t


    shopped for the holidays.


    They couldn''t go home empty-handed.


    Benjamin hugged her from behind andughed gently. "I asked Paisley to do the shopping for the New


    Year. He brought groceries over and put them in the living room. You can take the purchases back


    yourselfter."


    Madelyn blushed.


    She wondered, "Has Paisley been here? When did hee? Did he know Benjamin and I were having


    sex during the daytime...


    ...


    "Paisley is no stranger to this kind of thing. What does it matter if he knew?"


    ...


    Madelyn blushed, and her heart was racing.


    Benjamin kissed her delicate ear and said, "I don''t want to send you back!"


    Madelyn didn''t avoid his kiss.


    He kissed her for a long time. After that, she gently pushed him, "Benjamin, I have to go back."


    He merely said, "Hmm." Then he put his arm around her and straightened her woolen skirt.


    "I''ll pick you up on the fourth. And youe to my house for dinner on the fifth. Is it okay with you?"


    Benjamin couldn''t help but caress her all over again, saying, "It''s a nice dress. Why don''t you wear a


    dress next time you meet me? It''s convenient for us to make love."


    He sounded scious and seasoned.


    Madelyn was not only used to his prurient words but also got sexually aroused easily...


    He put his arms around her as they went downstairs together.


    Benjamin was considerate. He took her home, carried the purchases upstairs, and greeted Samuel and


    Cam. He did respect Madelyn...


    When he was leaving, Madelyn felt sad to part with him.


    She sent him downstairs, and he kissed her lightly as the fireworks filled the sky.


    They didn''t have dinner together. But a long, long timeter, Madelyn looked back and thought it was


    the best day they ever had.


    There was no Eleanor or anyone else.


    Just Benjamin and her...


    On that day, he was exclusively hers!


    *


    When Benjamin drove back to the rks'' mansion, it was already 7:00 pm.


    He leashed Snowy and then left the dog with the maid.


    When Eloise saw himing back into the living room, she darted over and grabbed his arm.


    "Benjamin! Where''s my New Year present?"


    Benjamin gave her a big present.


    Eloise was so happy and asked, "Where did you get that dog?" I can''t tell what breed it is."


    Benjamin walked into the living room and saw Daniel.


    Benjamin sat down, leaned back on the sofa, and saidzily, "It''s the dog from downstairs! Madelyn


    likes it so much, so I brought it back. Madelyn will take care of it."


    Eloise sniffled.


    "I wondered why you are in love with animals. It turns out that you''re trying to suck up to Madelyn with


    that dog."


    Brianna walked out of the kitchen.


    She saw Benjamining back alone and became upset. "I heard from Paisley that you went to


    Mandelyn''s house. Why didn''t you bring her back for dinner?"


    Benjamin said casually, "I''ll bring her back on the fifth!"


    Brianna was pleased. The fortune teller was right. Brianna had to properly thank him for this.


    ...


    Daniel had been looked at Benjamin coldly.


    Benjamin wasnguid and slouchy since he came back home.


    Men knew men best!


    When one had sex many times, he would be too sexually gratified to move.


    Daniel could tell that Benjamin had sex with Madelyn today...


    Madelyn woulde over for dinner at the rks'' mansion on the fifth. Daniel thought to himself,


    "Does that mean Benjamin and Madelyn are going to get married? Is Madelyn going to be my sister-in-


    Daniel''s blood turned cold.


    No one knew he quietly clenched his fists...


    "Daniel, why aren''t you eating?"


    Benjamin put a pork rib on Daniel''s te and said gently, "Look how skinny you''retely. Come on, eat


    up, or Eloise will feel sad about you!"


    Eloise said loudly, "No, I won''t feel bad for him!"


    Daniel came back to his senses with a start.


    Benjamin was smiling.


    He said to Eloise, "I''ll take you to set off the fireworkster, take some pictures and send them to


    Madelyn."


    Pleasure welled up inside Eloise''s heart.


    She turned to Daniel and said, "Daniel, you take pictures of me and Benjaminter, and make sure he


    looks good in the pictures. Madelyn must be thrilled at his pictures and can''t wait to marry Benjamin."


    Daniel looked pale.


    Benjamin smiled faintly. "Actually... I gave her a ring today."

 Chapter 166 Benjamin, I Only Have Eyes for You

    Chapter 166 Benjamin, I Only Have Eyes for You


    Chapter 166 Benjamin, I Only Have Eyes for You


    On the night of New Year''s Eve.


    Madelyn saw the best fireworks in the world.


    Benjamin set off a lot of fireworks at the rks'' mansion...


    Eloise ran around him with a small firework in her hand, glowing with happiness. And a pleasant,


    enticing smile spread over Benjamin''s chiseled, handsome face.


    The clock struck twelve o''clock at midnight.


    Madelyn picked up Benjamin''s call, and he said, "Happy New Year, Madelyn."


    Madelyn leaned against the window.


    She stared into the darkness, and her heart started to melt. "Happy New Year to you too!"


    They didn''t hang up the phone and they talked asionally...


    Madelyn could hear voices on the other end of the line.


    She could even hear Daniel talking, but now her heart belonged to Benjamin. She didn''t have room for


    anyone else in her heart.


    As she was drifting off to sleep at 2:00 a.m., she heard Benjamin''s voice.


    Madelyn thought to herself in a daze, "It''s such a good year!"


    ...


    It was the fourth of the month.


    Benjamin came to pick Madelyn up, and Samuel and Cam said their goodbyes to them.


    Madelyn got in the car and took off her jacket. "Where are we going?"


    Benjamin held the steering wheel with one hand and turned to look at her sideways.


    Madelyn was wearing a red wool dress underneath because of the New Year, and the little piece of


    skin that was exposed was as white as snow. She looked so beautiful.


    Benjamin said in a low and hoarse voice, "You look so good!"


    Madelyn couldn''t help but blush.


    Benjamin held her hand gently without saying anything and drove GT Aurum to his apartment.


    When Madelyn arrived at the apartment, she tried to get Snowy toe.


    Benjamin hugged her from behind. "Snowy is in the rks'' mansion, and you''ll meet it tomorrow!"


    Madelyn felt he was unbearably hot.


    She knew vaguely what he was up for, but she must act bashful and reserved and couldn''t immediately


    make love to him. How could Benjamin not know what she was thinking?


    He embraced her and kept softly sweet-talking her.


    Madelyn thought that no woman could control their own passion under these circumstances. Then she


    had sex with Benjamin half-heartedly...


    She felt better having sex with him this time than she did before!


    Benjamin used to make love to Madelyn with great care because she was inexperienced. But he was a


    little different this time. He did it vigorously, changed into bolder, more sexually stimting positions...


    Madelyn had sex with Benjamin many times and figured out that he liked rough sex.


    If a woman loved a man who she slept with, she would be too indulgent with him during sex.


    They had lots of sex tonight, which overturned all of Madelyn''s imagination!


    All she saw was Benjamin''s lustful look.


    She could barely hear anything over his sex moans.


    They were burning with desire the whole night!


    ...


    Early in the morning, Madelyn gently opened her eyes.


    In front of her eyes was Benjamin''s handsome face.


    He had sex madly all night, but he was still energetic and not tired exactly now!


    Madelyn recalled what happenedst night at the sight of him, and she couldn''t help but blush at any


    crumbs of memories.


    ...


    "Morning Dew!"


    Benjamin kissed her and called out to her affectionately.


    "My Little Morning Dew, get up."


    ...


    Madelyn couldn''t help but wrap her arms around him and kiss him back.


    Benjamin pressed his lips against hers and murmured, "I''d love to make love to you, but we''ll bete if


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    you don''t get up. We need to go shopping together."


    Madelyn''s eyes sparkled brightly.


    Only women who were sick in love had such a look in their eyes.


    Benjamin kissed her eyes and said after a moment of pondering, "Go change your clothes! Daniel''s


    there too. You must not wear that dress in front of him."


    A woman thought it was sweet when her man got jealous.


    Madelyn kissed him on the lips and professed her love for him for the first time.


    "Benjamin, I only have eyes for you now."


    Benjamin stared at her, and after a while, heughed softly and reached his big hands into the covers...


    "Let me check if you''re lying or not!"


    Madelyn couldn''t help but curl up as he shoved his fingers into her body.


    She pleaded in a soft voice. "I thought we were going to buy presents."


    Benjamin stopped what he was doing, and his long, narrow eyes were staring at her as if he wanted to


    see through her flesh and blood.


    Madelyn''s legs were weak from his gaze.


    She initiated a kiss on him and whispered, "We''ll have sex when we get back at night."


    Benjamin chuckled softly and withdrew his hand slowly. He was so prurient that Madelyn couldn''t even


    dare to look at him.


    She was in a different mood when she went to the dressing room to pick out her clothes.


    Madelyn used to hate expensive jewelry and clothes, feeling like she was a woman that Benjamin kept.


    But now their rtionship changed. She thought it was sweet when choosing her clothes.


    Madelyn was sensible and picked up a lc wool dress and pearl earrings.


    When she finished washing up, she found Benjamin was waiting for her.


    "I''m going to take you out for breakfast."


    Madelyn had no makeup on, but her cheeks were rosy. Benjamin loved it so much.


    He drove her out.


    The mall was not crowded on the fifth day of the New Year.


    Madelyn picked out a Louis Vuitton scarf for Brianna, a limited edition handbag for Eloise, and an


    expensive pen for Alexander.


    Benjamin took out his credit card to pay the bill.


    Madelyn whispered, "I''ll pay for it! I can''t let you pay."


    Benjamin fixed his eyes on her and smiled faintly with a slight hint of derision.


    Madelyn was a little embarrassed, and her face flushed.


    She was still embarrassed until she reached the rks'' mansion.


    Benjamin pulled over the car, turned sideways, and pinched her cheeks. "Madelyn, there''s nothing


    embarrassing about buying gifts for your future inws and sister-inw! You''re so thin-skinned. Who


    was on top of mest night and wouldn''t get off?"


    Madelyn was about to have a fit...


    The car door opened.


    Eloise came over with Snowy in her arms and said affectionately, "Madelyn, you''re here!"


    Madelyn had to let Benjamin get away with this.


    Madelyn got out of the car and handed Eloise a gift. "This is for you."


    Eloise eximed before she even opened her gift. "How do you know I love it?"


    Benjaminughed.


    Eloise was enthusiastic!


    He took Madelyn to meet Alexander and Brianna. When Madelyn entered the hall, she saw Daniel


    sitting on the couch.


    She met someone from her past in the New Year...


    Daniel''s eyes were deep.


    Madelyn had considered that she would not be able to get rid of Daniel if she was with Benjamin. She


    only loved Benjamin... It was a long time ago, and the past was the past.


    It was not like she and Daniel had been in a real rtionship!


    Benjamin went upstairs to meet Alexander. Eloise yed with the dog in the yard. Only Daniel and


    Madelyn were left in the hall...


    Daniel sneered.


    "Have you made up your mind? Are you really going to marry Benjamin?"


    Madelyn said coldly, "Daniel, can we just stay out of each other''s way?"


    "No!"


    Daniel narrowed his eyes. "You think I can stand you and Benjamin being intimate every day?"


    Even though Madelyn had been prepared for his snide remarks, she was still sad.


    "Daniel, in fact, our four-year rtionship is nothing but a scam to me. Stay away from me. Let


    bygones be bygones. It''s good for both of us!"


    Daniel''s eyes fell on her.


    He saw the diamond ring on her finger...


    He was devastated and froze for a long time, before he spoke, "Are... Are you getting married?"


    Madelyn was about to say something when footsteps sounded from the second floor.


    Benjamin and Alexander slowly walked downstairs.


    Benjamin was a few steps ahead, looked at Daniel, and then Madelyn''s red eyes. His eyes became


    unfathomable...

 Chapter 167 Madelyn, I Feel Sorry for You

    Chapter 167 Madelyn, I Feel Sorry for You


    Chapter 167 Madelyn, I Feel Sorry for You


    The atmosphere was weird.


    Madelyn knew quite a bit about Benjamin, and she was afraid that he would be angry.


    Instead of being angry, he walked up to her and asked very gently, "What happened?"


    Madelyn shook her head.


    She looked up at him with trusting eyes.


    Benjamin smiled, turned around, and said to Alexander, "Dad, this is Madelyn!"


    He gently put his arms around Madelyn. "This is my dad!"


    Alexander was over fifty years old and looked remarkably well-preserved. Benjamin more closely


    resembled Alexander.


    Madelyn greeted Alexander respectfully.


    Alexander slowly walked downstairs.


    At this time, Brianna came over. When she saw Alexander did not say anything, she nudged him.


    "Madelyn said hello to you. Stop putting on airs."


    Alexander''s eyes were contemtive.


    Alexander knew that Ben had brought a girl home on Eloise''s birthday!


    But Ben did not introduce the girl to Alexander on that day. Therefore, Alexander did not take that girl


    seriously.


    Alexander never thought that Ben was in a serious rtionship with her!


    Alexander looked Madelyn up and down with his shrewd, sharp eyes.


    She was good-looking and demure...


    It was said that her career was booming!


    Alexander was very fond of Madelyn, but he had never shown his feelings. He just nodded lightly and


    said to Brianna, "It''s just Madeline''s first visit to our house. And we are celebrating the New Year. Could


    you give her a New Year''s present, please?"


    Brianna then gave Madelyn a big New Year''s gift.


    She gave Madelyn a big wad of dors and an expensive Taurus bracelet.


    Madelyn was surprised.


    Brianna said lovingly, "You''re a Taurus, and it''s your birth year. Wearing a Taurus bracelet can bring you


    good luck."


    Madelyn smiled and thanked Brianna.


    Benjamin looked at her with a half-smile, and Madelyn was annoyed but thought it was sweet.


    After ying with the dog, Eloise rushed in.


    Daniel was the only one unhappy in the hall when he knew that Benjamin and Madelyn were getting


    married.


    During the dinner, Alexander was in a good mood and drank 250 milliliters of hard liquor.


    Brianna didn''t stop Alexander from drinking. She rarely allowed him to drink.


    Madelyn was a bit restrained. And Benjamin was rarely attentive to a woman.


    "Madelyn, the soup is nourishing."


    "This is your favorite dish."


    ...


    Madelyn was touched. But when she raised her eyes, she saw Daniel''s malicious eyes and guessed


    what game Benjamin was ying.


    He was doing it for Daniel!


    Madelyn was angry and annoyed, but there was nothing she could do about him.


    Under the table, Benjamin put one hand on her thigh and gently stroked it.


    Daniel saw this clearly.


    Madelyn took Benjamin''s hand away, and a momentter, he put his hand on her thigh again and


    rubbed it.


    She looked over at him.


    Benjamin was dashing and confident.


    He was talking to Alexander on a wide range of topics. The expression on his face didn''t give away the


    obscene things he was doing under the table. Madelyn silently put her hand on his to prevent him from


    doing anything too much.


    A momentter, he gently held her hand, and their fingers twined together.


    Daniel''s face was as white as a sheet.


    He never thought the woman he had abandoned would break his heart so much...


    After dinner, they began to drink coffee.


    The men talked about business, and the women talked about life and rtionships.


    Brianna was full of joy.


    She was going to hang out with Madelyn and Eloiseter.


    She wanted to go to the mall and stop by the coffee shop where her friends used to hang out.


    It was the New Year holiday. She wanted her friends to meet her awesome daughter-inw.


    Brianna went upstairs to change her clothes when the maid came to report.


    "Sir, Mr. Bet is here."


    Alexander was shocked. "William? Isn''t he in Monatiz?"


    Alexander was surprised, but he immediately went to the door to wee William.


    It was New Year''s Day, but William was haggard. He didn''t look right.


    As soon as William entered the hall, he saw Madelyn who was treated like the daughter-inw of the


    rk family. His face was taut, and he bit back the words he would like to have said.


    Alexander ordered the maid to serve coffee.


    William drank a cup of coffee and became peaceful.


    But William was still hesitant to speak. After all, Ben seemed to be settled... William thought it was a bit


    much for him to ask for that.


    But Eleanor was his only daughter. So he still said it anyway.


    "Alexander... Eleanor''s getting a divorce!"


    "Eleanor was abused by her husband and had two broken ribs. My wife and I took her back to Gredax


    for recuperation. I must let Eleanor get a divorce, but her husband has a special status. I want Ben to


    fight thiswsuit... I want him to talk to Eleanor. You''re the only one Eleanor will listen to."


    ...


    William said, and his eyes were pleading.


    Alexander did not immediately agree to this.


    Today was Madelyn''s first official visit, and he could not afford to upset her.


    Alexander deliberated a lot...


    But William could not wait any longer.


    He looked at Benjamin with tears in his eyes. "Ben, Uncle Bet needs your help. Eleanor is the only


    daughter my wife and I have. My wife will be devastated if something happens to Eleanor!"


    Before Benjamin spoke, Madelyn''s blood turned cold!


    Benjamin nced at her.


    Benjamin smiled faintly. "Uncle Bet, do you think it appropriate for me to fight the case?"


    William blurted out hastily.


    William said, "Ben, I know you still have feelings for Eleanor!"


    The temperature in the hall dropped.


    No one expected William to say such a rude thing in front of Madelyn.


    Benjamin was about to say something when Brianna came down from the second floor.


    It was obvious that she heard everything. She spoke softly, "William, I understand your concern as a


    parent! But now Ben is in a rtionship with Madelyn. It''s inappropriate for you to say anything like


    that."


    William opened his mouth as if to remonstrate.


    At this moment, Eloise couldn''t help but say, "If Eleanor wants to file awsuit, we''ll pay for it! Benjamin


    is not taking the case. If Uncle Bet wants to use past favors as leverage, push Eleanor into the


    water, and my dad will jump into that water to save her!"


    ...


    William''s face was pale, and he was so embarrassed.


    Alexander scolded Eloise. "Eloise, apologize to your Uncle Bet!"


    Eloise reluctantly said she was sorry!


    Alexander eased his tone and said to his old friend, William, "Eloise is young and impetuous. William,


    don''t take it personally! I''m going to have a good talk with Ben about thewsuit, and I will reply to you


    William had no choice.


    When William left, he couldn''t help but look at Madelyn, and his gaze was pleading.


    Madelyn''s whole body was still cold all over.


    She was not an unsympathetic girl, but she was not that generous. She could only avoid William''s


    eyes.


    William could not help but feel depressed.


    After William left, the hall was deadly silent, and everyone felt bad about it.


    Alexander slowly finished his cup of coffee.


    He looked at Benjamin, his favorite son, and Madelyn, and said, "You twoe with me to the study!"


    In a moment, Madelyn followed Benjamin to the study on the second floor.


    It was obvious that Alexander was not in a good mood!


    Alexander looked at Madelyn gently and spoke amiably as if he treated her like his own family.


    "Madelyn, please go make a pot of coffee!"


    Madelyn was slightly astounded.


    She was not stupid. She guessed that Alexander cared a lot about William, and she would have to


    It was useless for her to argue.


    Madelyn quietly made coffee...


    Alexander did not say anything while Madelyn was making the coffee.


    He quietly eyed Madelyn up and down.


    Madelyn was likable, meek, and educated. She was so much better than Eleanor!


    Alexander was fond of Madelyn, and he used to be Benjamin''s age and in love. Alexander never


    wanted to hurt Madelyn, but William risked his life to save Eloise back then!


    Alexander could never repay William for his kindness!


    Madelyn poured them coffee, and Benjamin''s eyes fell on her with tenderness.


    He spoke to Alexander. "Dad, it''s not appropriate!"


    Alexander made a gesture. "Ben, I need you to listen to me!"


    Alexander looked down at his cup of coffee and seemed to be caught in memory.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    "Your Uncle Bet had saved Eloise, but it was not like that we had to give everything to repay his


    kindness! There''s one thing you don''t know. Eleanor was adopted by your Uncle Bet and Mrs.


    Bet. It''s partially because Mrs. Bet is barren. But it was also because your Uncle Bet had


    been in the icy water for so long that his fertility was affected. He lost his fertility!"


    Both Benjamin and Madelyn were shocked!


    Benjamin spoke with difficulty, "Dad, you never told me that!"


    Alexander smiled bitterly.


    How could he let others know about such a private matter unless he absolutely had to?"


    He sighed softly. "Your Uncle Bet has a missing child, but he couldn''t find the child. But even if his


    child is found, his status and social standing will prevent him from recognizing the child."


    Benjamin fell silent.


    Alexander helplessly smiled. "Ben, it''s entirely reasonable for you to fight thiswsuit!"


    Alexander looked at Madelyn, and his tone was quite gentle. "Madelyn, I''m so sorry! I''ll make it up to


    you! Don''t worry. Ben and Eleanor are never going to get back together. You have to trust him on that."


    Madelyn knew Alexander meant well.


    Alexander was a man of honor and status but treated her with such kindness.


    He already treated her as his daughter-inw, and if she stopped Benjamin from doing this, she would


    be seen as mean and thoughtless.


    Actually, Madelyn was very reluctant.


    But now, she had no other choice but to be a bigger person!


    She looked at Benjamin and met his eyes.


    After a long time, Madelyn whispered, "I trust him!"


    Alexander really liked Madelyn. He felt so sorry for Madelyn and offered her a house, but Madelyn


    refused to take it!

    Chapter 168 Benjamin Wasn''t Home Late at Night


    Chapter 168 Benjamin Wasn''t Home Late at Night


    After walking out of the study, Benjamin pulled Madelyn over.


    He held her in his arms without speaking... Madelyn was aggrieved.


    Madelyn was in his house now during New Year''s holidays, so she didn''t lose her temper.


    She leaned over his shoulder, smelling his nice perfume, and asked in a low voice, "When are you


    Benjamin had to go to the officeter.


    Thewyer of Eleanor''s husband was waiting to have formal conversations with Benjamin.


    Benjamin thought for a moment and said, "I will be back before dinner! I''ll have dinner with you, and


    then we''ll go back to the apartment... Madelyn, this is not going to affect our lives."


    Madelyn forced a smile.


    In the afternoon, Benjamin left after Alexander.


    Brianna had intended to hang out with Madelyn and Eloise, but she was in no mood for it now...


    The atmosphere at the rks'' mansion was a bit depressing.


    Madelyn waited for Benjamin from day to night, but Benjamin had not returned yet.


    Benjamin made a call to Madelyn and asked her to eat first. He would have the driver take her back to


    the apartment. He said he would be backter.


    Madelyn did not ask what time he would be back home.


    When it came to Eleanor, Madelyn felt her self-esteem was hurt.


    When Madelyn left with Snowy at 8:00 p.m., Brianna felt so sorry for her.


    Madelyn smiled faintly. "I''m all right!"


    But she knew that she felt bitter inside the whole day...


    She got into the car.


    The driver did not drive immediately, and the door to the rear seat passenger was pulled open.


    Daniel appeared in the night.


    The driver was so sensible that he could see there was something between Mr. Campbell and Ms.


    Green. The driver thought he''d better keep his mouth shut.


    Daniel held the roof of the car and looked at Madelyn. "I have something to tell you."


    Madelyn was in a bad mood and didn''t want to talk to him.


    Daniel grabbed her by the arm and forcefully dragged her out of the car...


    The night wind was strong.


    Madelyn goggled at him. Daniel lowered his head and lit a cigarette. He blew smoke rings and raised


    his eyes at her. "Do you want to be with Benjamin after all this? The international divorce case can take


    up to two years. Are you gonna watch Benjamin interact with his old me all this time? Every time


    Eleanor cuts her artery, Benjamin will visit her in the hospital, as his father tells him. Madelyn, is that


    what you want? Are you going to put up all of this?"


    This was hard to hear. What Daniel said disgusted her.


    But what he said was right!


    Madelyn said calmly, "Daniel... It''s none of your business whether I''m happy or not!"


    Daniel mmed the roof of the car!


    The driver was startled.


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    Daniel looked horribly angry in the darkness as he questioned her, "Madelyn, you think I''m inhuman


    and don''t want the best for you, don''t you? But has it urred to you that I want you to have a damn


    good life?"


    Daniel was fuming.


    His fingers were trembling as he held the cigarette. "Don''t lose your head. You''re better off with David


    than you are with Benjamin!"


    Madelyn''s face was pale.


    Daniel stared at her quietly, and spoke very gently all of a sudden, "Madelyn, would you consider giving


    me another chance? I won''t let you down again."


    Madelyn got back into the car.


    She sat in the back seat and said in a soft voice, "Daniel, it''s toote!"


    With that, she instructed the driver to drive.


    The driver sighed and gently stepped on the gas.


    Madelyn didn''t say anything on the way back, but the young driver couldn''t help but say, "Ms. Green,


    don''t worry. I won''t tell anyone about what happened tonight!"


    Madelyn was silent.


    She... didn''t seem to care that much anymore!


    She went back to Benjamin''s apartment, made up the bad for Snowy, and waited for Benjamin toe


    back!


    Madelyn waited until 12:00 at night, but he hadn''te back yet.


    The night was quite silent...


    Only Snowy circled back and forth around her feet.


    Madelyn sat in front of the Morning Dew Piano and yed it over and over again. She yed all the


    tunes she could remember, but Benjamin hadn''t returned.


    Snowy was so sleepy and lying at her feet.


    Madelyn sat in front of the piano. In front of her was the lovely view of Gredax.


    But she felt depressed.


    She started to examine her rtionship with Benjamin and found that there was no way back...


    ...


    Benjamin didn''te home all night.


    In the early morning, Madelyn left the apartment with Snowy and went back to her small house.


    Benjamin might have gone back to the apartment before he called her.


    Madelyn held the phone and didn''t know what to say.


    Benjamin was probably very busy. He barely said a few words before he got another call, and he had to


    hang up on her.


    After that, they didn''t see each other for several days.


    At this point, something was wrong with the music studio.


    The music studio opened on the 8th of this month. Penelope asked Madelyn to her office alone for


    coffee. Madelyn saw Penelope looked ill and inquired with concern about her health.


    "Madelyn, I have stomach cancer!" Penelope whispered to her.


    ...


    Madelyn was holding her coffee cup and blinked gently at the words.


    Then tears fell from her eyes.


    She didn''t wipe her tears but asked very softly, "Did you recheck it?"


    ...


    "Yes. I''ve been to all the best hospitals in the country and abroad. Madelyn, I want to go to Oriapool to


    recuperate. I don''t want to give my shares to others. If possible, I want you to take over my shares. I


    just want to get all my money back!"


    Penelope took Madelyn''s hand.


    Madelyn put down her cup of coffee.


    Her fingers were trembling, and after a long time, she said, "I''ll go with you to Oriapool!"


    Penelope shook her head.


    Penelope had been strong, and she had unfinished business.


    Penelope and Madelyn had built this studio together. Penelope was sick and wanted Madelyn to keep


    this studio afloat.


    Penelope said a lot.


    Madelyn wouldn''t be able to own the studio on her own for the time being, because it would cost


    Madelyn 2 million dors to buy Penelope''s shares.


    She didn''t want to ask Benjamin for the money!


    In the evening, she went back to Samuel''s for dinner.


    Cam saw that she was in a bad mood and asked her what happened.


    Madelyn talked about Penelope''s illness and the music studio. Samuel asked Cam, "How much


    money do we have left? You go get Madelyn the money!"


    Cam went back to her room and counted it.


    Cam and Samuel had about a million dors, but there was nowhere near enough of what Madelyn


    needed.


    Cam came up with an idea and said, "It''s been tough for Ms. Waylon. It took a lot of hard work to


    open this music studio. We can sell this apartment for about 3 million dors. We don''t need such a big


    house to live. We''ll just get a 900-square-foot house."


    Madelyn refused Cam''s offer.


    Samuel made up his mind. "Just do as Cam says!"


    Madelyn felt sorry for this, and Cam whispered, "You''re the only child Samuel and I have. Who will


    we give these things to if not you?"


    The house was in such a high-traffic area, and there were many people who wanted to buy it.


    The house was sold within three days.


    The Green family moved into a smaller house, and Cam handed Madelyn a bankbook, and there


    were 2 million dors in it. "You give this to Ms. Waylon. Make sure you do her another favor. She''s


    been taking care of you all these years!"


    Madelyn nodded.


    She couldn''t help but add, "When the studio pays off, I''ll buy you a big house."


    Cam smiled. "You''re such a good girl. We''re so blessed."


    ...


    Madelyn had some money of her own.


    She met Penelope in a cafe. Penelope had lost a lot of weight in just a few days.


    Penelope wanted some coffee.


    Madelyn stopped her. "You are not well. You can''t drink coffee!"


    Penelope smiled.


    Madelyn gave Penelope the check for 2 million dors. She also gave Penelope another check for 70


    thousand dors to thank Penelope for taking care of her over the years.


    Penelope refused to take it.


    Madelyn gently held her hand. "I''ll wait for you toe back!"


    Madelyn was keeping those shares for now. When Penelope came back, she would give it all to


    Penelope.


    Penelope did not have many rtives or a husband or children.


    She had no ties.


    When Madelyn said this, Penelope got choked up, smiled, and derided. "Bad girl, I want to date a


    handsome man abroad and nevere back. You''re holding me up with the music studio!"


    Although they wereughing, both of them felt bitter in their hearts!


    Penelope''s stomach cancer was terminal. How long could she live?


    Penelope was going to leave. Madelyn wondered what it was like to see her again!


    Madelyn was in a particrly depressed mood!


    She had a meal with Penelope as a farewell, but she didn''t think she would meet Benjamin here.


    Madelyn and Benjamin hadn''t seen each other for almost a week.


    They spoke only a few words on the phone!


    When Madelyn met Benjamin at this moment, she couldn''t help but sigh!


    Benjamin was not alone but was apanied by Paisley and two other strange men.


    Madelyn knew Benjamin was talking business and only nodded lightly.


    She was going to take Penelope home.


    Penelope refused, shaking her head gently.


    Penelope was a shrewd and sane woman. She could tell at a nce that Madelyn and Benjamin were


    estranged, and she smiled faintly, "I''ll just take a taxi."


    Madelyn hailed a cab for Penelope and watch her get in the car.


    Penelope''s thin figure faded into the night.


    Madelyn felt sad and stood alone in the dark for a long time.


    ...


    "Madelyn..."


    Madelyn turned around and saw Benjamin standing under the neon light.


    Benjamin was handsome and dignified, and even the brightest lights couldn''t throw the slightest bit of


    his temperament into the shade.


    After a long time, Madelyn asked very slowly, "Are you done with your business?"


    Benjamin merely said, "Hmm."


    He took the car keys from her hand and said gently, "You don''t look right. I''ll drive."


    Madelyn did not object.


    When she got into the car, he asked her, "Do you want toe to my apartment?"


    Madelyn leaned back in her seat and said wearily, "Snowy is at my ce. Take me home!"


    Seeing that she was cold and distant with him, Benjamin frowned.


    Instead of showing his displeasure, he said thoughtfully, "Then we''re gonna spend the night at your


    house. You have an early night, and I''ll walk the dog!"


    Madelyn did not object.


    She thought it would look like she was being petty and caring for him if she objected!


    Benjamin seemed to be eager to talk to her and casually asked, "You just had dinner with Ms. Waylon?


    She didn''t look good."


    Madelyn nodded and told him the whole story.


    When she finished, Benjamin pulled up to the intersection. There was a red light ahead.


    He looked ahead and whispered, "Why didn''t you ask me if you need money?"


    The Green family even sold their house and lived in a smaller ce.


    It was impossible that Benjamin didn''t mind this at all!


    Madelyn lowered her eyes. "Benjamin, I don''t feel like spending your money right now!"


    Silence filled the car...


    After a long time, he asked, "Is it because you feel insecure?"


    Madelyn did not answer.


    She was not unrepentant. It was vaguely sexual and sweet those nights, and she easily agreed to have


    sex with him! She took a lot of nerve to open herself to such a rtionship...


    She still had courage but was a little timid.

 Chapter 169 Madelyn, Call Me Ben!

    Chapter 169 Madelyn, Call Me Ben!


    Chapter 169 Madelyn, Call Me Ben!


    When they came back to Madelyn''s apartment, Snowy wagged its tail to greet them.


    Madelyn took off her coat and touched Snowy''s head. She said, "Good dog!"


    Snowy even shook its butt very happily, showing the intention of going out to y! Madelyn handed the


    traction rope to Benjamin and said, "You take it downstairs for walking, and I will cook a bowl of


    noodles for you."


    Benjamin nced at Madelyn deeply, with a little eagerness in his eyes.


    Then he bent down to tie the rope to the dog and went out to walk the dog.


    The kitchen was facing the outside, and Madelyn could see Benjamin when she was cutting up


    vegetables. Benjamin looked very elegant and charming with his slender figure.


    Madelyn watched for a long time.


    When Benjamin came back, he felt hot because of the good heating in the room.


    Benjamin took off his coat and rolled up his shirt sleeves. He sat at the small dining table to eat


    noodles, still looking elegant.


    Madelyn took a morning paper and sat next to him to read it.


    She didn''t take in a word but saw a few pinholes on Benjamin''s arm. Probably because the pinholes


    were so dense, that piece of skin was all bruised.


    Madelyn had a lump in her throat.


    She touched Benjamin''s skin lightly and looked at him. She asked, "You''ve drawn blood many times,


    right?"


    Benjamin followed Madelyn''s gaze and said yes.


    These days, Eleanor had been moody and made trouble out of nothing, and the Bet family and the


    rk family had suffered a lot. Certainly, Benjamin suffered the most. As Daniel said, there was


    insufficient Rh-negative trait in the hospital, and as long as Eleanor hurt herself, Benjamin would go to


    the hospital to save her.


    Madelyn didn''t speak but just stroked that piece of skin.


    She felt a little distressed.


    She thought, "Eleanor doesn''t love Benjamin. Even if she has loved him, it is extremely distorted and


    selfish love!"


    But Madelyn couldn''t speak this out.


    Madelyn didn''t know how important Eleanor was in Benjamin''s heart!


    After eating the noodles, Benjamin habitually took a cigarette to light up it, but Madelyn gently took it


    away.


    "Smoke less!"


    Benjamin looked up at Madelyn with deep eyes.


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and cleaned up the dishes, but Benjamin gently pressed the back of her


    hand.


    "Clean up tomorrow!"


    Benjamin gently carried Madelyn in his arms and walked straight toward the bedroom, meaning


    obviously that he wanted to have sex.


    ...


    "No!" Madelyn put her arms around Benjamin''s neck.


    Benjamin stopped and looked down at her. He said in a husky voice, "What''s the matter?"


    Madelyn stroked the neckline of Benjamin''s shirt and murmured, "You''ve drawn blood several times,


    and you should have a good rest."


    Benjamin stared at Madelyn with deep eyes.


    Madelyn also looked at Benjamin with teary eyes andplicated emotions.


    After a long time, Benjamin said, "It doesn''t matter!"


    Benjamin had always been overbearing, and Madelyn couldn''t dissuade him and had to have sex with


    him.


    Perhaps because of drawing blood excessively, Benjamin''s body was not as good as before, and he


    only made love once.


    Benjamin gasped softly in Madelyn''s ear, and under the bed were their scattered clothes.


    Madelyn wanted to get up.


    But Benjamin gently pressed her and said, "Don''t move. Stay with me for a while!"


    Madelyn stopped moving and put her fair face on the side of Benjamin''s neck to feel the warmth.


    After half an hour, Benjamin had enough rest and went to the bathroom with Madelyn in his arms for a


    brief shower.


    Madelyn was so tired that she fell asleep.


    However, she woke up at night and found Benjamin was not in bed.


    She got up to put on a coat and walked into the living room. The window opened a crack, and Benjamin


    stood by the window smoking. In the ashtray, there were seven or eight cigarette ends.


    Seeing Madelyning out, Benjamin immediately stubbed out his cigarette!


    "Did I wake you?"


    Madelyn went over and hugged Benjamin. She asked, "Why don''t you sleep? Is something bothering


    you?"


    When a woman was soft-hearted, she was much more generous.


    Madelyn thought she would be willing to talk to Benjamin about Eleanor if he wanted at this moment.


    After all, Eleanor was like a barrier between them and both of them couldn''t escape.


    Benjamin touched Madelyn''s head and replied, "It''s just work matters!"


    He took her back to the room. When they were lying on the bed together, he kissed her behind her ear


    for a long time.


    ...


    The next few days, they got along pretty well!


    Even if Benjamin was very busy, they met two or three times a week.


    Sometimes Benjamin spent the night in Madelyn''s apartment, and asionally he would pick her up to


    his apartment when he went back early.


    There were always pinholes on Benjamin''s arm.


    Madelyn didn''t ask where Benjamin was when they hadn''t met, nor did she ask if Eleanor had been


    discharged from the hospital, whether she was still hurting herself or not, and whether she was holding


    him to redeem his feelings or not!


    Madelyn only cooked a tonic soup for Benjamin when he came.


    Benjamin wanted to have sex every time, but Madelyn rarely agreed because she thought Benjamin


    was in weak health now!


    Certainly, asionally at night, after receiving a phone call from William, Benjamin got dressed and


    then went to the hospital.


    On such a night, Madelyn couldn''t sleep. She would get up and sit in the hall waiting for Benjamin.


    However, she never waited for his back!


    ...


    As the days passed, Eleanor made her matter spread all over the city. After all, the Bet family and


    the rk family were celebrities.


    Samuel cared a great deal for Madelyn, so he didn''t approve of Madelyn being with Benjamin. He said,


    "Although the rk family is wealthy, it''s so ridiculous that your future husband always stays with an


    outsider!"


    Cam was a woman.


    She certainly knew Madelyn was having a hard time, so she didn''t say much.


    Madelyn was under a difficult circumstance!


    She came out of the Greens'' mansion and got into the car. She was going to the hospital to get


    medicine for Samuel, but Cam chased her down from upstairs.


    "Cam!" Madelyn got out of the car.


    Cam came to Madelyn and said softly, "Your father is a man, and he''s inspoken. Don''t take his


    words to heart! As for the rtionship, you can deal with it by yourself. But no matter how good


    Benjamin is, you don''t have to be with him...if you are not happy!"


    Madelyn lowered her head and said okay.


    The corners of her eyes were moist, and her pretty nose was slightly red.


    Cam''s heart ached for Madelyn.


    Cam smoothed Madelyn''s coat and said, "If you like him, just work hard once! If he let you down in


    the end, don''t be sad for too long. People only have a short life, and don''t waste too much time!"


    Madelyn said okay again.


    Cam patted her and said softly, "Go ahead! Drive slowly!"


    Madelyn hugged Cam and turned to get in the car.


    ...


    Madelyn drove to the hospital and got the medicine.


    She didn''t expect to meet Eleanor in the hospital.


    A nurse pushed Eleanor into a wheelchair and had a walk outside.


    Eleanor didn''t look very good. Her face was pale, and she was skinny now. The hospital gown looked


    empty on her.


    Madelyn looked at Eleanor.


    Eleanor also turned her face to look at her.


    Although Eleanor was haggard, she was still unkind!


    There were several roads in the hospital, and there was always one that Madelyn wouldn''t bump into


    Eleanor. Madelyn didn''t want to talk with Eleanor, so she was about to bypass her.


    But Eleanor stopped Madelyn and asked, "Madelyn, can we talk?"


    Madelyn stared at her.


    Eleanor asked the nurse to push her closer and raised her hand, putting on an act.


    The nurse knew Eleanor''s meaning and left.


    Looking at Madelyn''s calm, Eleanor was very jealous.


    Eleanor thought, "I''ve tortured myself hard these days, but Ben still didn''t agree to get back together


    with me. It''s all because of this ordinary woman. But it''s okay... With those feelings in the past, Ben will


    not leave me alone!"


    When Eleanor was about to speak, her gaze settled on the diamond ring on Madelyn''s middle finger.


    The diamond ring was beautiful, but it was on the middle finger.


    Eleanor sneered and thought, "I thought Ben attached great importance to this woman. It turns out that


    he only gave her half of his promise!"


    Eleanor raised her head, sneering, "I heard you want to marry Ben, right?"


    Madelyn followed her gaze and also saw the ring on her own finger.


    Madelyn''s heart skipped a beat.


    The reason why Madelyn endured these days was not only because she really liked Benjamin and


    didn''t want to give up easily, but also because of the romance and promise he gave. They were really


    happy when they were together.


    Eleanor just chuckled.


    She lowered her head and fiddled with her fingernails.


    She said casually, "Ms. Green, do you believe Benjamin won''t leave me alone as long as I call him and


    sh my wrists? No matter what he is doing with you, he will stop it immediately and rush to the


    hospital for a blood transfusion, even if you are making love!"


    Madelyn was shocked by Eleanor''s shamelessness!


    She said in a cold voice, "Eleanor, what is your purpose in doing this? You know he will never get back


    together with you!"


    Eleanor changed her face slightly.


    Then, she looked at Madelyn viciously and said word by word, "I can get the pleasure of torturing you!


    Especially you Madelyn, why can you get Ben? You''ve already got his body, and why do you still want


    to marry him? Let me tell you. You don''t deserve it!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to follow Eleanor''s thoughts.


    She thought, "Eleanor is just a lunatic. Now she is just trying to irritate me and make me do something


    extreme."


    Madelyn calmed down.


    She said indifferently, "The most unworthy person in the world is you! And I, whether I have a future


    with Benjamin or not, I have a clear conscience. Even if I break up with him in the end, I won''t pester


    him at all!"


    Madelyn was much morefortable after saying this!


    Then she directly turned around and left.


    Behind her, Eleanor burst into tears and screamed frantically, almost hysterical!


    ...


    After going back, Madelyn was sad for a long time.


    She wondered if Benjamin always faced this kind of Eleanor.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    She took Snowy to drive to Benjamin''s apartment.


    Before Benjamin came back, Madelyn cooked soup and prepared a few dishes. Then she was making


    a report form while waiting for him to return for dinner.


    Snowy yed for a while. When it was tired, it curled up beside Madelyn.


    Snowy''s eyes were ck.


    Madelyn took out a pack of dog treats and fed it to Snowy. After eating, Snowy closed its eyes


    contentedly and fell asleep.


    Madelyn looked at the clock.


    It was half past ten!


    At this moment, Benjamin opened the door and came in. He was slightly surprised when he saw


    Madelyn.


    Then, he took off his coat and walked towards Madelyn. He leaned over and kissed her. He whispered,


    "Why did youe by yourself today?"


    Madelyn put her arms around Benjamin''s neck and replied, "I want to cook soup for you!"


    She noticed that Benjamin didn''t look well!


    Benjamin rarely told Madelyn what had happened to him, and she rarely asked him about it in the past.


    It was mainly because William''s kindness to the rk family made her bite back the words.


    But when Madelyn met such a crazy Eleanor today, she changed her mind a little bit.


    Madelyn said gently, "Drink some soup first to warm your body."


    Benjamin was not willing to let her go. He hugged her for a long time and flirted with her. "You want to


    be my wife so much, don''t you?"


    Madelyn couldn''t help blushing.


    "No, I don''t. I am still young!"


    Benjamin kissed Madelyn''s slender neck. When Madelyn was lost and delirious, he said in a husky


    voice, "I''m not young anymore. I''ll be 30 years old next year!"


    Madelyn turned Benjamin''s face around. When she looked at his handsome face, her heart raced.


    Benjamin wanted to kiss Madelyn again.


    He pressed his forehead to hers and murmured, "We haven''t made love for a long time. Madelyn, have


    sex with me once."


    This night, Benjamin was so gentle.


    When Madelyn followed Benjamin''s movements, she couldn''t help but get close to his ear and


    whispered, "Ben!"


    Benjamin was shocked.

 Chapter 170 I Love You So Much! Lets Try It!

    Chapter 170 I Love You So Much! Let''s Try It!


    Chapter 170 I Love You So Much! Let''s Try It!


    Benjamin pulled Madelyn into his arms and kissed her. "Call it again!"


    Madelyn refused.


    She leaned on Benjamin''s shoulder, smelling the slight smell of sweat on his body, and gently hugged


    him.


    Benjamin wanted to have sex again.


    Madelyn stroked his facial features with her slender fingers and then murmured, "Take a good break


    and drink the soupter!"


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn with deep eyes and asked, "Your heart goes out to me, right?"


    Madelyn''s heart indeed went out to Benjamin.


    Benjamin especially loved Madelyn''s gentle and docile appearance, so he pressed her and wanted to


    make love again.


    But his cell phone rang, and the ringtone was exclusive to William.


    Madelyn hated William''s call very much.


    Sure enough, after saying a few words, Benjamin had a darkened expression and got up to get


    dressed.


    Madelyn hugged him from behind and didn''t want him to leave.


    "Benjamin, can you just leave her alone? You know she''s on purpose. How long will you let her hurt


    you like this? Benjamin, there is a time limit for requiting favors, isn''t it?"


    Madelyn thought, "I''m also a woman. I can''t cook him a tonic soup every time as if nothing happened,


    and then watch him go to the hospital to give a lunatic a blood transfusion!"


    Madelyn looked at the pinholes in Benjamin''s arm and was almost suffocate!


    Benjamin was silent and kissed her for a long time.


    He soothed Madelyn''s trembling body. When Madelyn calmed down a little, he said softly, "I''ll be back


    soon."


    "No, you won''te back. Eleanor won''t let youe back..."


    ...


    Madelyn talked to Benjamin seriously for the first time. "Benjamin, Eleanor is not your responsibility!


    You can go to court for her, but your indulgence will only make her crazy even more."


    In fact, Madelyn wanted to say that Eleanor should go to a mental hospital if she was really crazy.


    Benjamin probably knew what Madelyn meant.


    He looked at her with deep eyes andplex emotions, making Madelyn bite back her words.


    Finally, Benjamin put on his clothes and left.


    As usual, Benjamin did note back.


    The spring night was actually quite cold. Madelyny down until 3 a.m. and then got up. Originally, she


    wanted to go back to her apartment, but she didn''t want to wake up Snowy.


    She just sat alone in the living room all night.


    ...


    In the next half month, Eleanor hurt herself much more.


    Madelyn could hardly see Benjamin.


    The only two times they met, Benjamin didn''t look good and directly fell asleep as soon as heid down


    on the pillow.


    Madelyn didn''t ask anything.


    She had been in a weak position in this rtionship and she had no way out.


    Their rtionship was so weak that Madelyn had no reason to feel distressed for Benjamin!


    Madelyn sometimes thought that she might subconsciously have no hope anymore and that she


    persisted to this day was nothing more than waiting for a result!


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t expect that Alexander would find her.


    Alexander''s secretary took the car to pick up Madelyn in person and said very respectfully, "Ms. Green,


    Alexander wants to meet you!"


    Half an hourter, Madelyn was sitting in Alexander''s office.


    Alexander valued Madelyn very much. He asked his secretary to leave, made her a cup of coffee


    personally, and said with a smile, "I heard from Eloise that you like Mandheling. I specially asked my


    secretary to buy the coffee beans. You can have a taste."


    Madelyn felt extremely ttered.


    She knew that high-ranking people like Alexander were hardly humble, so she thought this was not


    necessarily a good thing!


    Sure enough, Alexander gently put the coffee down.


    He sat opposite Madelyn and said, "Why don''t youe these days? Eloise has talked about you


    every day, and my wife has also been looking forward to youing for dinner."


    Madelyn didn''t know how to deal with it.


    She thought Benjamin and she might not get married now.


    Alexander was a sophisticated big shot, and he certainly knew what this young girl thought.


    Besides, he knew Benjamin''s temper!


    Alexander really liked Madelyn, who was not only good-looking but also more strong-minded than his


    wife.


    Just because of Eleanor, Benjamin hardly returned home.


    Alexander had watched coldly and found something bad, so he interfered in this matter decisively.


    He pushed an invitation letter in front of Madelyn and smiled very gently. Then he said, "This is an


    admission invitation to Edoford Academy of Music. I didn''t mean anything else. You have felt wronged


    these days, so I think you should go abroad for two years. When your studies are over, Eleanor''s case


    will alsoe to a conclusion. No matter how great the kindness of the Bet family to our family, it


    will be over! At that time, it will be just right for you and Ben to get married and have children."


    Madelyn''s body froze.


    She was wise and certainly understood what Alexander meant.


    Madelyn thought, "The friendship between the Bet family and the rk family will not be broken


    because of me.


    Therefore, he asked me to make a concession.


    If I leave, Eleanor won''t hurt herself like this and Benjamin can suffer less! Look, what a great


    arrangement! All aspects are considered appropriately, but there''s only one thing...that it''s clearly not


    my fault! However, in the end, I''m the only one who has to sacrifice!


    Everyone is fine...


    Only me! I''m the one who has to leave!"


    Madelyn was so painful that she almost forgot to breathe!


    In the huge and luxurious office, it was so silent for a long time. Alexander did not urge. He seemed to


    have endless patience with Madelyn.


    Finally, Madelyn raised her eyes.


    She said with difficulty, "I have to think over it."


    When she stood up, her face was white as a sheet.


    Alexander was a little guilty, so he asked his secretary to send Madelyn back.


    As soon as Madelyn left, Brianna came over.


    When Brianna heard that Alexander would have a talk with Madelyn, she immediately rushed over, but


    Madelyn had already left. The beautiful and elegant Brianna was anxiety-ridden.


    Brianna med Alexander and said in a wailing tone, "Ben shouldn''t have taken Eleanor''s case at all!


    The fortune teller said that Ben would only fall in love twice in his life, and there was only one chance


    for him to get married! Alexander, if you screw up Ben''s marriage in the end, I will take Eloise and


    Madelyn to run away from home, and I''ll let you two men be single forever!"


    Alexander was helpless.


    Heforted Brianna while hating Benjamin for letting them down.


    As a father and a man, Alexander knew most clearly that the biggest contradiction in this matter was


    not Eleanor, but Benjamin himself.


    Alexander could tell that Madelyn loved Benjamin very much.


    He thought, "Madelyn is good-looking and has a good job, and her family conditions are not bad. Why


    does she keep waiting for Benjamin? It''s nothing more than liking him! Ben doesn''t cherish her love, or


    doesn''t love her enough!"


    Alexander had no choice but to make this decision, otherwise, Benjamin and Madelyn would break up


    sooner orter!


    Alexander dared to make the decision because he believed that Madelyn loved Benjamin enough!


    ...


    Madelyn returned home with the invitation letter.


    She thought over it for three days!


    In these three days, she met Benjamin once, and they didn''t do anything but hug each other quietly.


    On the night of hugging, Madelyn calmed down and asked herself, "Can my love for him support this


    sacrifice? In two years, the business can be left to professionals to take care of. But I can''t stay with my


    family. Dad''s health is not so good..."


    At dawn, Madelyn stroked the ring on her finger.


    She continued to think, "I can still feel the emotion the day he gave me the ring. I like Benjamin. If the


    status quo can be changed in two years, then I''m willing to gamble once. I''ll take Dad and Cam to


    Edoford. I''ll study further courses about ying piano. When Ie back, I''ll be more worthy of


    Benjamin and more confident in front of William."


    When Madelyn made this decision, she was a little confused.


    Benjamin''s face was in front of Madelyn, so handsome that any woman liked him.


    Madelyn leaned over and kissed Benjamin on the lips. She whispered, "I love you so much! Let''s try it!"


    Benjamin woke up.


    He turned over and pressed Madelyn under his body. Then he asked, "What did you say just now?"


    Madelyn''s face slightly flushed, and she refused to repeat it.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn deeply. He was full of energy and wanted to have sex because they didn''t


    do itst night.


    Madelyn was very cooperative.


    Benjamin stared at her and kept his movements.


    Madelyn put her arms around Benjamin''s neck and took the initiative to kiss him. Her face flushed and


    she had a lost look,


    After the sex, Benjaminy beside Madelyn, panted, and flirted with her. "What happened today?


    You''re so proactive."


    Hey on his side and pinched Madelyn''s face. He said, "I heard that girls miss men when they''re


    getting old. Madelyn, are you looking forward to this these days?"


    "You are getting old!" Madelyn patted Benjamin away and got up to the bathroom.


    When she came out, Benjamin wasmunicating with William about thewsuit by the window by


    cell phone.


    She hugged him from behind.


    When Benjamin hung up the phone, Madelyn said softly, "Saturday is Valentine''s Day. Can youe


    back?"


    Madelyn was so meek, and Benjamin was in a good mood.


    He stroked her hand and asked gently, "What gift are you going to give me?"


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Madelyn thought of the invitation letter and was slightly grieved.


    But she said in a cheerful voice, "I won''t tell you!"


    Benjamin turned back and kissed Madelyn. They hadn''t had crazy sex for a long time, and Benjamin


    was free this morning, so he kept making love with her.


    Madelyn was stunned for a moment but didn''t refuse.


    In the afternoon, Benjamin went to thew office.


    Madelyn called Alexander. Obviously, Alexander had been waiting for her call for a long time, and he


    answered the phone quickly as soon as Madelyn put him through.


    Alexander asked gently, "Have you made a decision?"


    Madelyn gave a positive answer.


    She said, "I want to take my father and Cam over there."


    Alexander was very happy and immediately agreed, "There is no problem! This is very good, It''s good


    to have family apanying with you. You are very filial."


    Then he asked, "Does Ben know?"


    Madelyn shook her head and replied, "I haven''t told him yet. I''ll tell him in two days."


    It was Valentine''s Day in two days, and Madelyn wanted to prepare for it well.


    Madelyn thought, "This is the first Valentine''s Day for us. We should have a good time. After all, we


    may not be able to celebrate it in the next two years."


    Alexander had been down this road before and guessed the reason.


    He smiled and said kindly, "I''ll ask Brianna and Eloise to go shopping with you. You can buy some new


    things. If you feel lonely, I''ll let Eloise apany you often. Anyway, she is usually free."


    Madelyn shook her head gently.


    Alexander was more or less touched, so he made an exception to say a few more words. As a high-


    ranking person, he was willing to coax Madelyn just because he attached great importance to her.


    In the next two days, Madelyn handled her own business.


    She also found a well-known studio in Gredax to design a ck theme n and changed the


    decorations of Benjamin''s apartment on Saturday afternoon.


    Although the cost was a bit expensive at 8 thousand dors, Madelyn didn''t feel distressed at all when


    she swiped her card.


    It was the first Valentine''s Day for Madelyn and Benjamin!


    Madelyn carefully prepared candlesticks, champagne roses, and meals from Michelin.


    Everything was very romantic...


    At seven o''clock in the evening, Madelyn called Benjamin and asked in a cheerful tone, "When will you


    be back?"

 Chapter 171 Benjamin, I Want Nothing!

    Chapter 171 Benjamin, I Want Nothing!


    Chapter 171 Benjamin, I Want Nothing!


    Benjamin was in a meeting.


    He replied gently, "I''m still in the meeting and I''ll be back before nine o''clock! By the way, Paisley will go


    over to get a documentter. It''s on the desk in my study. Just give it to her."


    Madelyn said okay.


    She didn''t hang up the phone immediately, because she wanted to talk to Benjamin more.


    Benjamin was in the conference room, and it was not convenient to say too much. So he just said


    softly, "I gotta go!"


    After hanging up the phone, Madelyn thought she had to ask Paisley to keep it secret when she came


    and saw the decorationster.


    After 20 minutes, Paisley did note but called Madelyn.


    Paisley said tensely, "Madelyn, my child has a fever and I have to rush back now. Can you help me


    send the document, which is one on Mr. rk''s desk?"


    Madelyn had a good rtionship with Paisley and immediately agreed.


    Paisley was very grateful.


    Madelyn went to the study to get the document and drove to thew office.


    She thought, "I can wait for Benjamin to finish the meeting ande back together. He must be very


    surprised when he sees the things I prepared."


    Madelyn had a smiling face.


    In the night, the white BMW shuttled through the traffic stream and arrived at Bravo Legal Firm in about


    half an hour.


    Madelyn went upstairs.


    Unexpectedly, most of the lights in thew office were turned off.


    There was no one in Benjamin''s office, but his second secretary didn''t leave. Seeing Madelyning


    over, Sasha said strangely, "Mr. rk answered a call half an hour ago and left in a hurry."


    Madelyn changed her look slightly.


    Sasha originally thought Benjamin left to celebrate Valentine''s Day, but she found she was wrong after


    seeing Madelyn''s expression.


    Sasha watched Madelyn''s expression carefully.


    Madelyn understood Sasha''s mood very well. She said with a wry smile, "It''s okay!"


    She went downstairs and sat in the car.


    Madelyn knew the wisest choice was to go back to the apartment and wait for Benjamin to celebrate a


    But... Madelyn stroked the steering wheel!


    She stepped on the gas lightly, and the white car came in the direction of the hospital.


    The night darkened.


    It began to rain in the sky, drop by drop, disturbing many young couples.


    Pedestrians on the road were gradually scarce.


    Madelyn drove to the hospital. She did not go upstairs immediately but sat quietly for a long time.


    She thought, "It must be unpleasant to go up. But if I don''t go up, this matter may disgust me for the


    rest of my life. Besides, avoiding is not my character."


    Ultimately, Madelyn untied her seat belt.


    ...


    Eleanor was a celebrity, and Madelyn easily found her ward after asking someone casually.


    The door of the advanced vip ward opened a crack.


    Madelyn could see the inside clearly and hear the inside sounds more clearly.


    Before Madelyn arrived at the door, she heard Eleanor''s hysterical voice, which was very noisy.


    When Madelyn was at the door, there was a dead silence inside, with only a few light gasps.


    Madelyn was standing by the door and saw...Eleanor hugged Benjamin from behind.


    Benjamin''s whole body tautened and his face darkened.


    That kind of Benjamin only appeared in front of Eleanor.


    Suddenly...


    Benjamin pushed Eleanor away hard.


    He looked at Eleanor and said very coldly, "Why don''t I hate you? If it weren''t for you, marriage would


    still be sacred to me, rather than bing a piece of waste paper and a constraint to me, let alone a


    means of binding someone! Eleanor, do you think I shouldn''t hate you?"


    ...


    "Don''t hate me! Ben... Please don''t hate me! Shall we start over?"


    Benjamin did not respond.


    Wearing the loose hospital gown, Eleanor threw herself into Benjamin''s arms and buried her head in


    his arms.


    She said crazily, "I know you can''t forget me! I know you don''t love Madelyn!"


    Benjamin''s body froze.


    Eleanor chuckled slightly, "If you love her, you won''t put the ring on her middle finger! Ben, I know you


    wanted to propose to me back then. You measured the size of my ring finger, didn''t you? The diamond


    ring is actually for me, isn''t it? So, you won''t marry her at all!"


    Benjamin pushed Eleanor away again.


    He gritted his teeth and said, "My parents and Eloise like her. Why don''t I marry her?"


    There was a bang at the door!


    It was because Madelyn dropped the document!


    ...


    Madelyn''s whole body froze.


    Before she came up, she had thought about a lot of unpleasant pictures, but she never thought this...


    She thought, "Benjamin said...marriage is a constraint! He said...marriage is a piece of waste paper!


    He said marriage is just a means of binding someone!


    Does he mean I''m trying to bind him or that he''s trying to bind me?


    No matter what the answer is, it''s ridiculous and pitiful!


    What''s more, I never thought the diamond ring that I am eager for, the diamond ring that I have looked


    at in a daze every time I felt heartache after waiting for a long time, has such a story. It turns out that


    the reason why he didn''t wear the ring on my ring finger was not because he didn''t love me, but


    because this position is exclusive to Eleanor!


    It''s so ridiculous!


    I used tough at Eleanor for being crazy and muddleheaded.


    It turns out that I''m the one who is really muddleheaded!


    I waited for him stupidly and cooked him tonic soup. I was even willing to go to Edoford for two years


    just for him to handle things with Eleanor. I was looking forward to Valentine''s Day, but he had a


    meeting and he had to work. However, he came here quickly just because of Eleanor''s call.


    Why did I think they would cut off their rtionship two yearster? They''re clearly going to pester each


    other for the rest of their lives, and both of them obviously enjoy their rtionship quite a lot!


    Only me! Obviously, I''m an outsider and I''m self-righteous!


    Enough! Madelyn! Enough!


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    It''s over!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to cry because she didn''t want to be embarrassed, but the tears still couldn''t help


    rolling down!


    ...


    "Madelyn!" Benjamin was shocked when he saw Madelyn.


    He knew subconsciously that Madelyn had heard everything he said just now.


    He wanted to exin.


    But Madelyn stopped him and said, "Don''te! Benjamin, don''te!"


    She picked up the document and handed it to Benjamin.


    She said in a low voice, "Paisley''s child is sick, and she let me give the document to you! You are not in


    thew office, so I...wanted toe and have a look!"


    Benjamin took the document.


    He frowned and said, "Madelyn, it''s not what you think!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled lightly. Then she looked at the diamond ring on her finger.


    Her eyes gradually became teary. In fact, she couldn''t see the ring clearly at all, but she insisted on


    watching it for a long time. During such a period, she kept telling herself, "Caring a great deal for men


    can only make womene to a bad end!"


    Madelyn thought, "Look, I''m so difited now!"


    She slowly took off the diamond ring and raised it gently.


    Benjamin kept rolling his Adam''s apple and suddenly realized what Madelyn wanted to do!


    Madelyn stared at Benjamin.


    She remembered that she asked him a question not long ago, and he had said that he couldn''t give her


    what she wanted!


    Later, Madelyn had a brief rtionship with Bryson.


    Then Benjamin appeared and began to pursue Madelyn.


    Benjamin had said he didn''t just want to sleep with her but also wanted to go out with her and even


    married her. He gave her a diamond ring and took her home. All these made her very surprised and


    moved!


    Madelyn thought, "Now I finally understand that he has made do with everything! Because his parents


    and his sister like me and he is satisfied with my body, he is willing to marry me. In his heart, marrying


    me has never been voluntary, but a gift to me! So, he never said he loved me! Never"


    Madelyn asked with a wry smile, "Benjamin, do you love me?"

 Chapter 172 She Lost Too Much This Night!

    Chapter 172 She Lost Too Much This Night!


    Chapter 172 She Lost Too Much This Night!


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn with deep eyes.


    He said in a hoarse voice, "Madelyn, let''s talk about itter when we go home."


    Madelyn was stubborn and asked another time, "Do you love me?"


    Benjamin frowned and did not answer her.


    Madelyn knew this early. She knew Benjamin didn''t know how to answer because he didn''t love her


    and was above lying.


    The diamond ring in Madelyn''s hand dropped gently, making a slight sound, just like their fragile


    rtionship.


    When their rtionship broke up, they didn''t make a fuss, not like what Eleanor did. On the contrary, it


    came quietly, and only Madelyn was always the one in pain.


    Madelyn looked into Benjamin''s eyes.


    She said in a low voice, "Benjamin, I don''t want anything! If you don''t love me with all your heart, I want


    nothing! Benjamin, don''t worry. I won''t restrain you anymore, and you don''t need to bind me with


    marriage! I said earlier that you are free! Now, you are really free!"


    Madelyn turned around after speaking. She tried to straighten her back to walk out, wanting to maintain


    herst pride.


    She wanted to leave respectably.


    Madelyn thought, "Everyone has wrongly loved a jerk who toys with them. It was just unrestrained


    gambling, and I lost! It''s okay. I can still get up after falling down! It''s just that I will never marry a man


    named Benjamin!"


    ...


    "Madelyn!"


    Benjamin chased after Madelyn and grabbed her hand.


    Madelyn threw his hand away hard.


    But Benjamin gripped her hand and said, "Listen to me. I''m not toying with you! I..."


    Madelyn couldn''t get rid of Benjamin''s hand.


    She said calmly, "You are indeed not toying with me! You just make do with everything. You just can''t


    refuse your beloved woman, and you can''t tolerate her getting a little hurt! However, you have always


    ignored my feelings and my pain! Benjamin, we are done!"


    Benjamin gritted his teeth and dragged Madelyn into his arms. Then he said, "Let''s go home and talk!"


    At this moment, the nurse in the ward screamed.


    "Ms. Bet... Ms. Bet!"


    Madelyn turned around with her red eyes.


    Eleanor''s face was pale and her scarred wrist kept bleeding. Eleanorughed and said crazily, "Ben,


    you can''t leave me! If you go back with her, I will die!"


    Benjamin walked over quickly and pressed Eleanor''s wound.


    He said in a muffled voice, "Eleanor, when are you going to stop making trouble out of nothing?"


    Eleanor replied with her trembling lips, "You know it!"


    ...


    Madelyn just stood there and watched. She was very tired!


    She thought, "After breaking up, I don''t have to go to Edoford against my will. After breaking up, I''ll


    never have to wait for him on a long night. Breaking up is actually pretty good!"


    Madelyn turned and left. She didn''t want to watch the scenes of the two people.


    ...


    After Madelyn left, she went back to Benjamin''s apartment first.


    She got rid of the carefully prepared Valentine''s Day party decorations slowly. 8 thousand dors worth


    of decorations, the Michelin dining table, and the sterling silver candlesticks were all thrown away.


    The invitation letter from the Edoford Academy of Music was also thrown into the trash can.


    After doing these, Madelyn packed up her things and prepared to leave.


    At this moment, her cell phone rang.


    It was a call from Cam. Cam said with a wailing tone, "Madelyn,e to the hospital quickly. Your


    father identally fell. Maybe... Maybe he will pass away. Madelyn, he wants to see you onest time!


    Madelyn,e here quickly!"


    Cam choked with sobs and almost had a breakdown!


    Samuel only had thest trace of consciousness left, but he still grabbed Cam''s hand and kept


    calling Madelyn, wanting to meet Madelyn.


    On the deathbed of his life, what Samuel couldn''t rest assured of was his baby daughter.


    ...


    The world seemed to copse in front of Madelyn!


    Madelyn put down everything in her hand and rushed downstairs.


    It was still raining...


    Madelyn stepped on the gas fiercely.


    While she was driving, her eyes were blurred, and she couldn''t tell whether it was rain or tears blocking


    her eyes.


    Madelyn thought, "Hurry up. I must drive faster! I must see Dad for thest time. I''ll tell him that I love


    him very much, and I''ll assure him that I will take good care of Cam. I also want to tell him that he is


    the best father!"


    Madelyn burst into tears!


    The car suddenly made a noise.


    Madelyn was stunned for two seconds.


    She ran out of the car regardless of the heavy rain and opened the bo. Then a burst of ck


    smoke came out.


    The car broke down.


    Madelyn didn''t have time to think carefully and started to take the taxi. But tonight was Valentine''s Day,


    and many young couples were going home from appointments everywhere. Madelyn couldn''t get a taxi


    at all.


    Madelyn was running in the rain. She thought it would be easier to take a taxi from a shopping mall in


    front.


    The rain wetted Madelyn''s clothes.


    Mud sshed on her shoes and pants.


    The rain was so deep. Madelyn stepped into a small pit, and she fell on the road.


    When she stood up, her heel hurt so much that she couldn''t walk.


    Madelyn waved for a lift frantically, but no one wanted to take her. One car after another passed by her,


    and the water surged frantically toward her.


    Madelyn didn''t care about her self-esteem and directly dialed Benjamin''s phone number.


    She thought, "Eleanor''s hospital is nearby. Maybe Benjamin can take me to my father''s hospital. I just


    want to see Dad for thest time."


    [Sorry! The subscriber you dialed is powered off!]


    [Sorry! The subscriber you dialed is powered off! Please dial itter.]


    ...


    On this rainy night, Madelyn closed her eyes gently.


    It was a very dark night!


    A ck sports car suddenly stopped beside Madelyn, and a slender figure jumped out of the car.


    It was David!


    David ran over in the rain and carried Madelyn in his arms. He asked, "Why are you here?"


    Under the night, Madelyn''s face and lips were pale.


    Madelyn said in a quavering voice, "David, take me to You Heal Hospital!"


    David didn''t ask much, put Madelyn in the passenger seat, and quickly started the car.


    The sports car with a good performance left so quickly on this rainy night, like a meteor!


    However, Madelyn arrived toote, and Samuel passed away with regret.


    With David''s support, Madelyn walked step by step to the bed. The snow-white bed sheet had already


    covered Samuel''s face, and Samuel passed away forever.


    ...


    "Madelyn, say goodbye to your father! He can hear you. He hasn''t gone far yet!" Cam''s face was full


    of tears.


    "Dad!" Madelyn shouted in a quavering voice.


    She knelt in front of Samuel.


    She thought, "How could it be? How could he just pass away like this? I still have a lot to say. I still


    have a lot of ces to take him and Cam. I''ve not yet had a high-flying career, and I''ve not been filial


    to him."


    Madelyn gently opened the white cloth to see Samuel for thest time.


    She thought, "Samuel, who is not rted to me by blood, has paid too much for me. To give me all his


    love, he chose not to have his own child. He did everything for me."


    Madelyn hugged Samuel gently, closed her eyes tightly, and called softly, "Dad..."


    She continued to think, "Dad... I will live a good life. I will take good care of Cam. I will often take her


    to see you and Mom. When I am free, I will take Cam out for a trip. Dad... Don''t worry and just look


    forward."

    ...


    Madelyn sprained her foot.


    Early in the morning, David took her to see a doctor from the orthopedics department.


    After some examinations, the doctor changed his look slightly.


    He knew Madelyn because his colleague''s child was learning piano from Madelyn, and he knew that


    this was a very talented girl.


    After deliberation, the doctor slowly said, "Ms. Green''s foot problem is not serious. She will walk


    normally after a period of recovery. It has almost no effect on daily life, but because of the nerve


    damage in the foot..."


    The doctor paused and then continued, "Ms. Green may not be able to be a top pianist. In


    addition, she''d better not drive anymore. Well... She actually can''t drive...forever!"


    ...


    Madelyn listened quietly.


    Probably because she lost too much tonight, she had no response at this time!

 Chapter 173 The Mystery of Her Birth

    Chapter 173 The Mystery of Her Birth


    Chapter 173 The Mystery of Her Birth


    Benjamin came back to his apartment early in the morning.


    On the way home, he saw a white BMW parked on the road.


    It was not unusual for many people around to watch and take pictures, but Benjamin''s heart skipped a


    beat suddenly when he saw the license te.


    It was Madelyn''s car.


    Benjamin stopped the car and walked across the road quickly.


    The white BMW stopped on the road.


    The bo of the car was opened, and it was exposed to the rain all night.


    The door of the driver''s seat was open. There was ady''s wallet inside. It had been soaked by the rain


    and was on the seat stickily.


    The crowd was full of words.


    "Whose car is it? This car just parks on the road like this!"


    "That''s it. Did the owner of the carmit suicide because of taking something to heart?"


    "The car has broken down and the owner''s probably dead. So pitiful!"


    ...


    Benjamin stood upright, forgetting to breathe for a few seconds.


    He took out his mobile phone mechanically and found it was switched off!


    He leaned over to take out Madelyn''s wallet and closed the car door. Someone around shouted, "How


    can you take other people''s things?"


    Benjamin said in a low voice, "It''s my girlfriend''s car!"


    The onlookers looked at him strangely, as if looking at a heartless man.


    Benjamin quickly returned to his car and charged his mobile phone. When he could turn on the mobile


    phone, he immediately dialed Madelyn''s phone number.


    The phone rang for about 20 seconds before Madelyn answered the phone.


    Madelyn said tiredly, "Benjamin, we''ll talk about our affairster!"


    After speaking, she hung up the phone.


    Benjamin frowned, guessing that Madelyn was still angry.


    He was willing to indulge her temper. He thought, "I should go back to take a bath first and then go to


    her apartment at night to make up for her perfect Valentine''s Day. Madelyn is very good. I don''t want to


    break up with her."


    Benjamin called Paisley and asked her to arrange a tow truck before driving to his apartment.


    Certainly, Madelyn was not there.


    The bedroom was a little messy, and a small suitcase was open as if someone was packing, but it was


    not taken away for some reason.


    Benjamin watched quietly for a while and then went to take a shower holding his clothes.


    After taking a shower, hey down, and Eloise called him.


    Benjamin was very tired and asked in a bad tone, "What''s wrong?"


    Eloise said in a wailing tone, "Madelyn''s father has passed away. Do you know?"


    Benjamin originally closed his eyes slightly.


    Hearing this, he slowly opened his eyes, and all emotions disappeared in his eyes!


    Benjamin finally knew why Madelyn packed half of her luggage and didn''t take it away, why her car


    broke down on the road, and why she didn''t lose her temper with him.


    It was all because Madelyn''s father passed away.


    Benjamin wondered how much Madelyn experiencedst night.


    The color drained from Benjamin''s face gradually, and he had a hunch that he and Madelyn were really


    done!


    Benjamin was rushed to the hospital.


    The Green family was still there, and a few rtives and friends apanied them.


    They were sending Samuel to another world. Madelyn was sitting in a wheelchair in ck, with a small


    white flower pinned on her chest.


    Madelyn looked a lot thinner, with a pointed chin.


    When Benjamin came over, Madelyn just took a quiet look at him, without much emotion.


    There was no love or hate in her eyes!


    However, David couldn''t help but step forward and grab Benjamin''s cor. David said fiercely, "How


    dare youe here! Where were you when Madelyn was helpless? Stop pretending to be innocent!"


    David lowered his voice and said through gritted teeth, "I said a long time ago, if you don''t cherish her, I


    will love and cherish her!"


    ...


    Benjamin pushed David away hard.


    David wanted to fight Benjamin!


    When David remembered Madelyn''s appearancest night, his eyes turned red. David thought, "A


    good girl like Madelyn should have been treated well. Benjamin is such a bastard!"


    Madelyn stopped David.


    Looking at Madelyn''s pale face, Benjamin wanted to hug her.


    Madelyn refused.


    She said to Benjamin lightly and politely, "My father was able to leave this world cleanly because of Mr.


    rk. Now that he is gone, Mr. rk is willing toe over to mourn him. I am very grateful!"


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Benjamin was stunned.


    He thought, "We almost got married. Not long ago, when we made love, she even called me Ben. But


    now, she just called me Mr. rk. It sounds so unpleasant!"


    Benjamin was in the simple mourning hall set up by the Green family, so he had to bite back all his


    words!


    Benjamin never left.


    Although Madelyn didn''t drive Benjamin away, she didn''t allow him to help her. She only regarded him


    as a guest of the Green family! David and a few distant rtives of the Green family were all busy


    helping make arrangements for Samuel''s funeral.


    Madelyn had been sitting in a wheelchair.


    Early the next morning, everyone sent Samuel to the mountain, and Madelyn was holding his picture!


    Cam burst into tears.


    Madelyn gently hugged Cam and knew she only had Cam to live with now!


    The cemetery was solemn and silent.


    Samuel passed away, and all the rted and unrted people came.


    Owen came with Florence.


    Daniel also came.


    Even Alexander and Brianna brought Eloise over. The rk family''s meaning was obvious, that was,


    they still wanted Madelyn to marry into their family!


    Although Cam was sad, she asked Madelyn''s thoughts.


    Madelyn said indifferently, "Since they''re here, just let them mourn for Dad to show their sympathy."


    Cam didn''t know what had happened between Madelyn and Benjamin, but she knew that the two


    would probably not get married. So Cam just treated the rk family politely as guests.


    When Samuel''s ashes entered the earth, the sky was overcast.


    Samuel''s ashes were ced side by side with Madeline''s, and there was another ce on the side that


    was reserved for Cam so many yearster.


    Seeing the tomb, Cam cried and said, "Madeline, you and Samuel must have a good time there."


    Cam thought, "As for Madelyn, I will take good care of her."


    Madelyn hugged Cam tightly.


    At this moment, a slender figure from a distance walked over quickly.


    That person was urbane and elegant.


    It was William.


    He learned what Eleanor had done and knew that Madelyn had broken up with Benjamin. So he


    wanted to mourn for Samuel to atone for the sins of the Bet family!


    Madelyn didn''t stop William. She just said, "Comers are all guests!"


    When William was about to mourn, he suddenly widened his eyes!


    He saw his beloved woman, also his first love, Madeline. Her picture was on the tombstone and a line


    of words was also on it.


    [MY BELOVED WIFE MADELINE, BY SAMUEL.]


    At that moment, William''s whole body froze!


    William couldn''t believe it and called Madeline repeatedly.


    "Madeline, Madeline... Why are you here?"


    With so many acquaintances present, William threw himself in front of Madeline''s tombstone


    regardless of decency and stroked her picture with his trembling fingers.


    William thought, "It''s Madeline! It''s my Madeline! She became someone else''s wife, and she actually


    married Samuel!"


    William suddenly looked at Madelyn!


    He remembered that Madelyn was the same age as his child. Then he looked closely at her facial


    features and found she actually resembled him.


    William thought, "Madelyn! Madelyn may be Madeline and my biological daughter! But I personally left


    her high and dry! I even dreamed that Eleanor could get back together with Ben after her divorce."


    William couldn''t ept the blow, and a mouthful of blood sprayed on Madeline''s tombstone!

 Chapter 174 The Mystery of Her Birth (2)

    Chapter 174 The Mystery of Her Birth(2)


    Chapter 174 The Mystery of Her Birth (2)


    William''s blood stained the tombstone red!


    In the picture, Madeline smiled slightly, as young and lovely as she was back then.


    William was so excited that he cked out, and the scene was in chaos.


    The rk family hurriedly helped William.


    "William! William!"


    "Mr. Bet, what''s wrong with you?"


    ...


    Madelyn held Samuel''s picture and looked at all of this woodenly.


    She had known she was not Samuel''s biological child a long time ago. She had always wanted to know


    who her biological father was, but she never thought it was...William!


    It was the man Madelyn admired since childhood but left her high and dry.


    Seeing William faint, Madelyn was unable to sympathize with him, let alone know his feelings. She just


    watched the scene coldly.


    Alexander and Benjamin, who were present, guessed the truth.


    The biological child that William was looking for was Madelyn!


    This fact was like a thunderstorm!


    Alexander sighed and thought, "If we had known earlier, the ending of Madelyn and Ben would not be


    like this!"


    William woke up from fainting.


    It was drizzling in the sky.


    The grave watcher wiped off the blood on the tombstone and shouted, "You have my heartfelt


    sympathy." Under the heavy granite tomb, Samuel and Madeline were buried together!


    "No!" William faltered and pounced.


    "Madeline, I''ll take you home!"


    William was of high status but he did such unseemly behavior, which made others not know what to do!


    Besides, spitting blood on the tombstone was quite impolite for the dead!


    Just when William was sorrowful, Madelyn said indifferently, "Mr. Bet, this is my mother''s home.


    She is my father''s legal wife. Where are you taking her? The Bet''s mansion? I remember you have


    a legal wife!"


    William''s body trembled!


    William couldn''t help but look at Madelyn, his biological daughter who resembled him and Madeline,


    but Madelyn looked at him indifferently and resentfully!


    William couldn''t bear it for a moment and spurted out another mouthful of blood.


    He couldn''t stop others from pulling him aside and could only watch Madeline buried together with


    another man in the same tomb generation after generation!


    Madelyn stopped looking at William.


    She stood side by side with Cam, silently mourning!


    ...


    The funeral was over.


    The crowd left one after another. Alexander originally wanted to talk to Madelyn, but William''s condition


    was really bad, so he had to take William away first.


    With the help of Cam, Madelyn was about to go back by car.


    Benjamin grabbed Madelyn''s arm and said, "Madelyn, let''s talk!"


    Madelyn''s gaze settled calmly on Benjamin''s face.


    Benjamin was still as handsome as usual, but Madelyn found she was not as attracted to him as she


    used to be, so there was a big difference between love and not love.


    Madelyn said calmly and politely, "Just wait another two days! I am not in the mood to talk about this


    now!"


    Benjamin looked pale.


    He said, "Let me send you back with Cam!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and whispered, "No, the car is waiting. Mr. rk, just go back!"


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Benjamin guessed Madelyn''s thoughts.


    He knew a little about her temperament and knew Madelyn probably was determined to break up with


    him. Benjamin had thought about whether it was better to break up in the past two days, but it was


    Madelyn that he missed when he touched the pillow at night.


    Benjamin missed the days of living with Madelyn and didn''t want to break up with her!


    ...


    Madelyn and Cam returned home, but they felt a little lonely because one person would nevere


    back.


    The two ate in silence.


    After the meal, Cam called Madelyn over and handed her a house proprietary certificate.


    Madelyn suddenly raised her eyes and asked, "Cam?"


    Cam touched Madelyn''s head and said in a low voice, "Madelyn, I want to live in that small house in


    the suburbs. This house values some money, and you can use it when you are in trouble! I have no


    ability, so all I can do is not to be your burden."


    Madelyn was very sad.


    She hugged Cam and said in a choked voice, "Why are you leaving? I want you to stay with me!"


    Cam bit back her words.


    She guessed that William should be Madelyn''s biological father because of William''s behavior.


    She thought, "If Madelyn could live with him, she probably would live a good life."


    Madelyn shook her head and said, "I''m not going anywhere. I''ll stay with you!"


    Cam sighed softly.


    She didn''t know what to do with Madelyn. She loved Madelyn, but Madelyn was not her biological


    daughter, so she couldn''t keep Madelyn by her side selfishly anymore.


    Madelyn hugged Cam and murmured, "I''ll call you Mom, okay? I''ll call you Mom. Please don''t leave


    me!"


    Cam''s body froze.


    Madelyn hugged Cam tighter.


    Madelyn said in a very low voice, "Mom, don''t leave me."


    Madelyn was just like the little girl timidly called Cam when Cam first met her.


    Cam cried!


    Since Samuel''s death, Cam had been strong all the time, but no one knew the sorrow in her heart.


    She lost her husband and had no biological child!


    But now, Madelyn called Cam Mom...


    Cam hugged Madelyn with tears rolling down and said, "I''m not leaving. I''m not leaving! Madelyn,


    since you call me Mom, I''m not going anywhere."


    Madelyn leaned softly in Cam''s arms and gently got the warmth from her body.


    In the afternoon, Cam forced Madelyn to take a nap.


    When Madelyn woke up, she heard a voice in the living room.


    With the support of the wall, Madelyn walked out and squinted when she saw the man.


    William was sitting in the living room with a lot of precious tonics at his feet. When he saw Madelyn, his


    lips trembled for a long time. Finally, he just called softly, "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn knew why William came here!


    She said politely, "Something happened to my family. Please forgive me for any inconsiderate


    hospitality! Mr. Bet, these things..."


    Madelyn looked at the tonics and continued, "I know your mind, but I really dare not ept these!"


    William stared at Madelyn.


    The more William looked at Madelyn, the more he felt she resembled Madeline back then.


    The more he looked at her, the more he felt she resembled the Bet family.


    Madeline married a man and wasid to rest. William had no choice, but Madelyn was the only child of


    the Bet family, so he had to take her home.


    William wanted to give Madelyn the best!


    He calmed down and said very gently, "I heard that you y the piano very well. Alexander also said


    that he wants to send you to study further in Edoford. I have some familiar tutors there... Or, I can teach


    you personally."


    William wanted to make up for Madelyn and wanted his biological daughter to be a top musician,


    tofort Madeline''s spirit!


    William said a lot, but Madelyn smiled lightly.


    She looked down at her foot.


    She thought, "This foot has hurt a nerve. Not to mention bing a top pianist, I can''t even drive. As


    for Edoford, I will never go there."


    Madelyn didn''t tell William about this. She just smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for your kindness,


    Mr. Bet. I don''t think I need it! In addition, if there is nothing else, I gotta go!"


    Madelyn was inconvenient to walk, so she told Cam to see William off.


    Cam respected Madelyn''s choice, so she handed the gifts to William and saw him off politely.


    When William got outside the door, he didn''t want to give up and said, "Mrs. Green, you..."


    Cam smiled faintly.


    She said, "I know your thoughts, but so many things have happened. We should respect Madelyn''s


    own thoughts, right? We are all human beings after all and everyone has sympathy. Mr. Bet, you


    care a great deal for your adopted daughter, but only Samuel and I care about Madelyn."


    Cam''s words made William heartache as if he was shot so many times!

 Chapter 175 Benjamin, Well Never Meet Each Other!

    Chapter 175 Benjamin, We''ll Never Meet Each Other!


    Chapter 175 Benjamin, We''ll Never Meet Each Other!


    Before going to bed at night, Cam gave Madelyn a hotpress on her feet.


    She held Madelyn''s feet and said gently, "You have to take good care of your feet! Pay attention to your


    injury!"


    Madelyn pretended to be okay and said, "It''s just a small injury!"


    Cam didn''t think much because Madelyn could walk gradually.


    Cam continued to give Madelyn a hotpress. When she was almost done, she hesitated and


    said, "Benjamin has been downstairs for a long time. Would you like to meet him?"


    Madelyn was stunned.


    After a moment, she shook her head slightly and said, "We''ll talk in a few days! I''m not in the mood


    right now."


    Cam didn''t force Madelyn.


    She touched Madelyn''s head and said, "I don''t know what''s going on with you two, but I''ll support all


    your decisions. Just pick someone good as your boyfriend. If this one is bad, there will be the next one!


    I''m sure my daughter can pick a satisfactory one."


    Hearing this, Madelyn smiled slightly.


    Cam was a little relieved.


    ...


    Time passed quickly. Soon it was the seventh day of Samuel''s death, and Madelyn''s foot was almost


    recovered.


    Madelyn went to mourn for Samuel with Cam.


    In the bright spring sunshine, small flowers bloomed everywhere.


    In front of Samuel and Madeline''s tombstone, there was a bunch of fresh lilies.


    Cam guessed that they were from William. She nced at Madelyn, who threw the lilies aside


    expressionlessly and put a handful of daisies on the tombstone!


    Cam sighed softly.


    ...


    Both of them stayed in the cemetery for a long time, and it was near noon when they came out.


    A golden Bentley Continental parked at the entrance of the cemetery. Benjamin leaned against the car


    to smoke. His whole body was in the bright spring sunshine, but he looked particrly gloomy.


    Benjamin had lost a little weight, but he was still very good-looking.


    Madelyn didn''t escape. After all, she had to make things clear between her and Benjamin.


    Walking up to Madelyn, Benjamin looked at her with deep eyes.


    He said, "I''ll take you back!"


    Cam knew Madelyn was going to have closure, so she took the initiative to say, "I will go back by car


    myself. Madelyn, you can talk to him!"


    Madelyn nodded and told Cam to be careful.


    Cam quickly got in the taxi and went back first.


    Benjamin stubbed out his cigarette, opened the car door, and said softly, "Get in the car!"


    Madelyn sat in the passenger seat.


    Although she could walk, she was not so flexible, and her injury asionally hurt.


    Benjamin also got into the car and then closed the door. He slowly fastened his seat belt, looked at


    Madelyn''s foot, and asked gently, "Does the foot still hurt?"


    Madelyn looked down at her foot and smiled faintly.


    "Much better. Thank you for your concern."


    Benjamin didn''t drive immediately. He looked at Madelyn, and said after considering for a while,


    "Madelyn, I like you, and I don''t want to break up with you! Let''s start over. I won''t meet her again in the


    future. At most, I will only see the case agent."


    Madelyn listened quietly.


    She was neither happy nor sad, as if she were an outsider.


    She even said with a faint smile, "Benjamin, find a ce to have a talk!"


    Benjamin curled up his slender fingers on the steering wheel gently and then he smiled after a long


    time. "Okay."


    Half an hourter, Benjamin took Madelyn to a high-end restaurant.


    The restaurant was booked in advance, so there were just the two of them.


    Madelyn didn''t eat anything but just ordered a cup of coffee. She gently stroked the body of the cup


    and was agonized.


    In the past few days, Madelyn had finally figured out Benjamin''s mind.


    Benjamin was getting her back.


    Madelyn thought, "But isn''t it too hypocritical to break my heart and then get me back?


    What he gave me was always what he was willing to give, but I gave everything in this rtionship. I


    knew I wouldn''t have a good ending with him, but I still didn''t hesitate to be with him.


    My family background is vastly different from his, so I went to learn many advanced hobbies that I didn''t


    like, including flower arrangement, making kinds of dishes, and so on.


    His beloved woman is the daughter of the famous pianist, William. I was even willing to leave my


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    hometown to study further in Edoford, just to be more worthy of him."


    With hindsight, Madelyn just felt it was so ridiculous.


    ...


    After drinking half a cup of coffee, Madelyn said softly, "Benjamin, we''re done!"


    Benjamin''s eyes settled on her face.


    After a long time, Benjamin said very slowly, "It''s not bad to be apart and calm down temporarily!"


    Madelyn did not avoid Benjamin''s gaze and just smiled slightly.


    "I mean we''re really over! We will never be in touch and will never call each other or send text


    messages on festivals and birthdays!"


    After Madelyn finished speaking, Benjamin suddenly called the waiter, "Two packages."


    The waiter smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. rk. I will serve you in ten minutes!"


    Madelyn couldn''t help but ask, "Benjamin?"


    Benjamin said strongly, "We''ll talk after eating!"


    When the food was served, only Benjamin ate it alone.


    He ate it for a long time but didn''t pay attention to the taste.


    Benjamin was actually waiting for Madelyn to regret and take back the words of breaking up. But it was


    no use crying over spilled milk. Since Madelyn had already decided, she wouldn''t change her mind


    easily.


    Benjamin wiped his lower lip with a napkin.


    He asked in a low voice, "Are you sure to break up with me?"


    He had lived with Madelyn for a long time and had made love countless times. They were very happy


    when they were together. Benjamin felt that Madelyn had no reason topletely break up with him


    just because of Eleanor!


    Madelyn gave a positive answer.


    She said, "I''m sure to break up with you!"


    Benjamin was a specially privileged person. In addition to Eleanor, the only woman he had coaxed was


    Madelyn. Now that Madelyn proposed to break up, he could tell that she had made up her mind.


    Benjamin thought, "If this rtionship makes Madelyn ufortable and unhappy, it''s better to let go


    of each other."


    Then they had an unpleasant conversation!


    Benjamin was a wealthy and high-ranking man. He thought he should give something to affirm the


    value of herpany when breaking up with a woman.


    Benjamin considered for a while and said, "I''ll ask Paisley to transfer the apartment to you!"


    That apartment was worth tens of millions of dors. An ordinary girl must be happy after hearing


    Benjamin''s words, while Madelyn was with Benjamin not for his money.


    Hearing Benjamin''s words, Madelyn was not annoyed and just said in a low voice, "I don''t want the


    apartment!"


    Benjamin was stunned.


    Madelyn was still staring at him.


    Benjamin understood something, took out his checkbook, and wrote down a set of numbers.


    Then he gently pushed the check for 8 million dors to Madelyn.


    Benjamin said calmly and politely, "Madelyn, now our rtionship is over! If you need help in the future,


    you can contact Paisley."


    Madelyn did not refuse.


    She folded the check and put it in her bag.


    She thanked Benjamin very honestly and made onest request. She said, "Mr. rk, I still have


    something in the apartment that I want to take away!"


    Benjamin took out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a long puff.


    He looked at Madelyn with deep eyes and said with a faint smile, "Okay! It''s convenient for you that I


    don''t live there these days! Just give the key to Paisley after taking your things."


    Madelyn thanked Benjamin politely.


    She stood up to leave, and Benjamin was somewhat gentlemanly and wanted to send her.


    Madelyn shook her head.


    She smiled lightly and said, "No need to send me, Mr. rk! Thank you for your help to my father over


    the past few days. Now, we''re even! From now on, I hope we''ll never meet each other!"


    Madelyn walked out of the restaurant slowly.


    Benjamin sat still. When he looked at Madelyn''s slender figure through a ss, he suddenly felt some


    pain in his eyes.


    He thought it was because the sun was too bright!

    Chapter 176 The End of Love


    Chapter 176 The End of Love


    The next day, Madelyn returned to the apartment.


    She swiftly hired a worker to reinstall the original curtains and throw away all the vases and decorations


    she had purchased.


    She packed up all the clothes and jewelry, worn or unworn, and sent them off to the auction house.


    Madelyn was determined to leave no trace of herself in the apartment, not even the Morning Dew


    piano.


    By the end of the day, all signs of her presence had vanished, as if she had never been there.


    Finally, Madelyn noticed the little white dog residing in the apartment.


    It was a stray that Benjamin had rescued and gifted to Madelyn to impress her, but he had left it to


    starve in her absence.


    Without a second thought, Madelyn took the dog with her when she left.


    After spending more than half a year with Benjamin, Madelyn left with nothing but the little white dog.


    She exchanged the $50 million he had given her, as well as the jewelry, clothes, and Morning Dew, for


    money to donate to a charity foundation.


    As she finished, Madelyn''s feet throbbed in slight difort, reminding her of her love - an absurdity!


    ...


    Two dayster, Benjamin was working in hisw firm, basking in the glory of histest international


    case.


    Suddenly, Paisley Brooks, his assistant, entered and handed him an envelope.


    "Ms. Green came by yesterday and asked me to give this to you," she said softly.


    Benjamin opened the envelope to find a key inside.


    It was the key to his apartment - the one Madelyn had left behind.


    He stared quietly at the key, lost in thought.


    "Have you been to my apartment recently? Did Madelyn take all of her clothes and jewelry with her?"


    he asked Paisley, his voiceced with uncertainty.


    "If not, please send them to her. As a man, I have no use for those things." He added.


    Paisley''s expression becameplicated, and Benjamin looked up at her, sensing that something was


    amiss.


    "What''s wrong?" he asked.


    Paisley couldn''t find the words to respond, so she muttered a vague response.


    "You''ll know when you go back tonight. In any case, Ms. Green has indeed moved out."


    Although Benjamin was a little curious, he didn''t probe it.


    He worked until ten o''clock at night before driving back to his apartment.


    As he arrived at the dark and quiet space, he hesitated.


    He knew that no one would be waiting for him, and no one would cook for him like Madelyn always did.


    So, he sat in his car, smoking a cigarette before finally heading upstairs.


    But when he opened the door and flicked on the lights, a wave of shock hit him.


    His scalp tingled, and every pore on his body seemed to open wide in surprise!


    What he saw in front of him was nothing short of astonishing!


    He had grown used to Madelyn''svishly decorated house, but now it was in, like a sample room!


    It was cold and tasteless, devoid of any human warmth!


    Throwing his coat aside, Benjamin began searching every room- the bedroom, kitchen, living room,


    even the bathroom - but he couldn''t find a single object that belonged to Madelyn or anything that she


    had used.


    She had left nothing behind!


    Benjamin stood in front of the French window, feeling a deep sense of emptiness wash over him.


    Even the Morning Dew piano was gone.


    It was then that he realized Madelyn''s true intent.


    She didn''t just want to forget him; she also wanted him to forget her!


    The memory of theirst conversation came flooding back.


    She said, "Farewell then. We''ll not meet again."


    The pain in his heart was unbearable as he realized the truth - she was gone.


    Desperate for answers, Benjamin took out his phone and dialed Madelyn''s number.


    However, he was met with an artificial, mechanical voice saying: "Sorry! The line is busy at the


    moment. Please try your call againter..."


    Benjamin looked around the apartment, feeling suffocated.


    Suddenly, in a wave of frustration and despair, he threw his phone against the wall, shattering it into


    pieces.


    A deep feeling of impotence overtook him, and he started smashing everything in the apartment.


    He didn''t know why he was doing it, but destroying these things seemed like it could somehow bring


    back some memories, turn back time, or perhaps make things right again.


    Late at night, Benjamin stood amongst the ruins of the apartment.


    He pulled a diamond ring out of his pocket- it was the one he had given to Madelyn before.


    It was probably the only thing she had left behind.


    He looked at the ring, thinking about Madelyn''s joy when he first gave it to her and how hurt she looked


    when she found out the truth.


    She said she didn''t want it!


    A lump formed in Benjamin''s throat.


    A strange mix of emotions, ranging from anger and confusion to intense sadness, threatened to


    overwhelm him.


    Benjamin had convinced himself that he could forget Madelyn, just like she seemed to have forgotten


    him.


    Since that day when he lost his mind, he asked his secretary to tidy up his apartment and threw himself


    into work, asionally hanging out with Grayson Wyatt and others.


    He didn''t call Madelyn again or tried to find out anything about her.


    And no one mentioned her in front of him.


    Her name became a taboo topic that he couldn''t bear to discuss.


    As for why Grayson stopped talking about Madelyn, Benjamin didn''t wonder about it.


    It was toote...


    *


    Two weekster, Paisley walked into his office with some news. "Mr. rk, Christie''s Auction House in


    Hong Kong... has something rted to you!"


    Benjamin''s hand, which was signing a document, froze.


    "What is it?" he asked, intrigued.


    Paisley lowered her voice further. "They auctioned off a batch of jewelry and haute couture dresses- all


    of them were gifts you once gave Ms. Green. Additionally, the Morning Dew piano was sold alone for


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    $60 million."


    Benjamin stared at the document in front of him.


    He asked, seeming to be indifferent to this news. "What does Madelyn want with so much money?"


    Paisley replied, "Well, actually Ms. Green donated all of the money to a charity foundation."


    The pen in his hand snapped in half.


    Benjamin spoke coldly, "She donated all of the money? You mean... she spent half a year with me and


    only asked for a dog?"


    Paisley sighed quietly.


    Then she ced arge envelope on his desk.


    "I picked this up from the mailbox at the apartment over the past few days. It''s Madelyn''s past spending


    records, along with bills and receipts that she sent over. Perhaps, once you''ve looked at it, Mr. rk,


    you will understand what Mrs. Green has done for you," she said with a soft voice.


    Benjamin clenched his fist, and after a long while, he opened it to take a look.


    The first bill he saw was for the Valentine''s Day decorations, with several effect images attached.


    The stunning images showed a ck-themed decor that Benjamin would have loved.


    The bill was expensive, costing tens of thousands of dors, yet Madelyn had paid for it herself with her


    own card.


    As Benjamin stared at the pictures, a familiar pain swept over him like a tidal wave. He couldn''t deny


    that Madelyn really loved him.


    "Madelyn truly does love you, Mr. rk," Paisley''s voice chimed in.


    She said, "You may not know this, but she promised your father to go to France for two years in order


    to make it convenient for you to handle Ms. Bet''s affairs."


    "You once won the best love," Paisley continued. "Please forgive me, I have to ask you - if you hadn''t


    gone to the hospital, would Ms. Bet really have died? Or is it that you, Mr. rk, have never let go


    of that first love in your heart?" She inquired.


    Paisley''s voice choked slightly as she realized she had overstepped her bounds. "I''m sorry for


    speaking out of turn..." she said and then left.


    Benjamin continued to stare at the pictures and the memories they brought with them.


    He suddenly realized that he had lost something - he had lost Madelyn''s love!


    She had asked him twice whether he loved her, and he failed to give a direct and honest answer.


    He had merely liked her body, her care, her cooking, and herpany.


    In fact, he had always known that Madelyn loved him!


    But now, she had taken back her love, drawn a clear line between herself and him, andpletely left


    his life!


    Madelyn had let go, but he couldn''t!


    He sat alone in the office all night, his ashtray full of cigarette butts as he pondered over the memories.


    As the sky began to lighten, he finally called Paisley, his voice hoarse. "Help me find out where that


    ''Morning Dew'' piano went!"

 Chapter 177 How Are You

    Chapter 177 How Are You


    Chapter 177 How Are You


    Paisley was well-prepared.


    She spoke softly, "An antique collector in Zistin got the piano."


    Zistin...


    Benjamin spoke calmly, "Book the quickest flight for me and gather all the information you can on the


    collector, including details on his family, friends, andpany..."


    Paisley nodded, "Of course, Mr. rk. I''ll transfer it to your email before you board the ne."


    That afternoon, Benjamin flew to Zistin.


    He spent a week there before returning to Gredax when spring was in full bloom.


    Despite not having adjusted to the time difference yet, he couldn''t wait to see Madelyn.


    Paisley had already informed him that Madelyn was volunteering at a nearby nursing home.


    Benjamin decided to drive there; it was remote and he arrived at half past three.


    As he approached the ssical building, the sound of a piano echoed from within.


    And there she was - Madelyn.


    She was dressed in white and sitting in front of an old piano,pletely engrossed in ying.


    She looked as beautiful as she did the first time Benjamin heard her y "Morning Dew" for him.


    As he gazed at her, he clenched his fist, noticing subtle differences in her ying.


    Despite the old and dpidated piano she was using, Madelyncked the same level of agility and


    tension in her performancepared to her previous one, leading him to wonder if her foot injury had


    fully recovered.


    After she finished the song, Benjamin whispered her name, "Madelyn!"


    Hearing his voice, Madelyn stiffened for a moment.


    But when she turned her face, herposure returned. "Mr. rk?" she replied politely, suggesting


    that they were nothing more than acquaintances.


    Benjamin surveyed the room, noticing many of the elderly people with white hair staring at him


    curiously.


    So, he spoke softly, "Could we talk alone for a moment?"


    Later, Madelyn entertained him in the tearoom.


    The quaint wooden structure boasted arge floor-to-ceiling window, adorned with an array of glorious


    small flowers and nts.


    Benjamin sat elegantly in his seat.


    Madelyn poured him a cup of tea and said lightly, "I''m afraid we don''t have any coffee or red wine here.


    The best we can offer is some ck tea. I hope that will suffice."


    Benjamin didn''te here for the tea, so he didn''t mind theck of options.


    Madelyn sat opposite him.


    The heat of the ck tea separated them.


    Benjamin broke the silence, asking, "How have you been?"


    Looking down, Madelyn took a sip of ck tea before answering, "Not too bad. It''s been great."


    Suddenly, Benjamin pulled out a letter from his pocket.


    Madelyn recognized it as the invitation letter to the Edoford Academy of Music that she had


    abandoned. How did Benjamin get his hands on it?


    He lightly pressed down on the letter with his slender fingers, looking closely at Madelyn.


    "Are you still want to study in Edoford?" he asked with concern. "I heard you ying the piano just now.


    Is your foot still not healed?"


    Madelyn lightly touched her injured leg with her fingers.


    There... it would never get better!


    Despair began to creep up on Madelyn, as she recalled the ill-fated rtionship that robbed her of her


    dreams and dashed all her hopes!


    Her foot would never fully heal, and her chance to be the best pianist was now just a distant memory!


    She no longer needed to go to Edoford, and even she was resigned to the fact that she could never


    drive again!


    However, Benjamin, with not a single scratch on him, sat in stark contrast to Madelyn''s plight.


    For some reason, Madelyn chose to stay silent.


    She still smiled lightly and said, "Thank you for your concern. I don''t think I''ll be going to Edoford


    anymore."


    She said it casually.


    But Benjamin felt a persistent ache in his heart.


    Madelyn had said that she didn''t want everything, and now he wanted to give her everything, but she


    didn''t want it!


    Not wanting to push her any further, Benjamin finished his tea and looked outside at the sunset. He


    then said softly, "Let me take you home."


    He paused before adding, "Your car is still in the repair shop, and it''s in bad condition. I will buy you a


    new car."


    Madelyn''s grip tightened around the delicate porcin cup as she tried to hold back her emotions and


    maintain herposure.


    She looked at Benjamin and gave a slight smile, saying, "Mr. rk, we''ve broken up. I''ve taken the


    break-up fee, moved out, and settled our ounts with Paisley."


    "As for your BMW, I don''t want it! And I don''t need a new car either." She added.


    With that, Madelyn stood up and opened the small wooden door, speaking politely and calmly. "I still


    have a sster, Mr. rk, please leave now. We don''t need to see each other again in the future."


    She was pushing him away!


    Benjamin''s gaze was deep.


    He searched her face for any sign of the passionate woman who had once sat on hisp, kissed him,


    and clung to him, pleading for another kiss...


    He looked for the Madelyn who used to blush at the sight of him and expressed profound affection


    every time he touched her...


    But he failed!


    She was gone, reced by a cold and emotionless shell!

    Benjamin realized that he was the one who had been lost in sweetness all along, and now he was left


    with nothing.


    As Madelyn left, he stood there, deep in thought.


    At that moment, Benjamin suddenly thought of Daniel Campbell - had he felt this same way when he


    had to reform himself?


    *


    A few dayster, Benjamin found Daniel at a social event held in a private room at the Orchid Club.


    Daniel was smoking leisurely, eyeing Benjamin with curiosity at seeing him in such a low mood.


    Daniel poured a drink for Benjamin slyly, "Benjamin, are you feeling down?"


    Benjamin held up the brandy and drank it all in one gulp. "I''m fine!"


    Daniel smiled lightly and took out his phone to show Benjamin a photo from his album - a picture of


    Madelyn when she was 22 years old.


    She was asleep on a dining table, looking more innocent than she does now, and the background


    decoration was not from the Greens'' mansion.


    Benjamin squinted his eyes.


    Daniel held a cigarette and eagerly continued, "She also cooked for me back then and waited for me at


    night. So, we are not special ones! She''ll forget about you soon and fall in love with David James. She''ll


    cook for him, tie his tie, and even... get married!"


    Daniel smiled lightly, clearly enjoying Benjamin''s difort. "Do you know that David has already


    gotten closer to her?"


    The words stung like a knife, and Benjamin snapped,unching himself at Daniel.


    The private room was filled with well-connected people, witnessing a brutal fight.


    The typically reserved Mr. rk had turned violent!


    Grayson Wyatt was also present, pretending to stop the fight, "Daniel, why say those hurtful things?


    You know that Benjamin is hurting inside!"


    Daniel, who had clearly had too much to drink, was no match for Benjamin''s physical strength.


    He was beaten badly, but even in his pain, he continued to smile.


    "This is your retribution, Benjamin!" Daniel spat. "I know I was wrong to mistreat Madelyn, but at least I


    loved her! If she gave me a chance, I would have given up anything for her. But what about you? You


    hurt her for no reason at all!" He sneered coldly.


    Grayson couldn''t bear to listen anymore and sincerely stopped Daniel''s speaking.


    But Daniel, growing excited and agitated, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said


    fiercely.


    "Do you ever think about Madelyn when you''re with Eleanor?" he snarled. "How could Madelyn


    promise Alexander rk to go to Edofordian? You fooled her, but she sees you now. And I''m going to


    enjoy watching you suffer!"


    Daniel, determined to continue the fight, was no longer interested in arguing with Benjamin.


    The other onlookers recognized that even Benjamin was ready to fight, so they gave up trying to stop


    the brawl.


    They realized that the two men needed this fight to unleash their anger and jealousy.

 Chapter 178 He Needed Her

    Chapter 178He Needed Her


    Chapter 178 He Needed Her


    Benjamin strode out of the room.


    His white shirt was stained with blood, mostly from Daniel.


    He lit a cigarette in the hallway, taking a slow drag.


    Despite his dislike for Daniel, he couldn''t deny the truth of what he had said.


    He realized that his rtionship with Madelyn, although seemingly equal, was not devoid of her


    concessions.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    And due to their vastly different social standings, he took her sacrifices for granted, never really


    considering her feelings as a woman.


    Lost in contemtion, Benjamin continued to smoke his cigarette.


    His chiselled features and noble bearing never failed to attract the attention of women, and Caroline


    was no exception.


    She was Daniel''s lover, working at the Orchid Club, and bore an uncanny resemnce to Madelyn.


    When she first encountered Benjamin, he looked at her in a way that made her pulse quicken.


    As they met again, Caroline couldn''t resist the temptation of being with such a captivating man even if it


    was just for one night.


    Caroline''s heart raced.


    She approached Benjamin and gently touched his handsome face, daring to ask, "Mr. rk, may I join


    you for a drink?"


    However, Benjamin was a fastidious man who detested unrted women touching him!


    He had imbibed so much wine that when Caroline touched him, he forcefully shoved her away, causing


    her slender body to m into the opposite wall with a loud thud!


    Caroline screamed in pain, and themotion caught the attention of the club manager, who


    immediately rushed over to investigate.


    Though it was not a significant incident, Benjamin''s fury was ignited upon seeing Caroline''s familiar


    face.


    Without a moment''s hesitation, he kicked open the door to a private room and forcefully shoved


    Caroline inside.


    The manager quickly followed and apologized, "Please forgive her, Mr. rk. She didn''t mean to


    bother you."


    Benjamin sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette, taking slow drags while he fixed his deep gaze on Caroline.


    He was so handsome that Caroline couldn''t help but feel a little flustered.


    "Come here," Benjaminmanded suddenly, his deep voice sending shivers down Caroline''s spine.


    She tentatively approached him, wanting nothing more than to touch him, but fearing his rejection.


    So when she got close enough, she only lifted her face up to attract him.


    Benjamin gently pinched her chin and looked at her intently, assessing her features.


    "She did bear some resemnce to Madelyn." He thought.


    The manager believed that Benjamin was interested in Caroline and began promoting her.


    "Caroline is one of our best," he said to Benjamin. "You really should give her a try."


    Caroline bit her lip lightly, a temptation for men.


    But Benjamin suddenly let go of her.


    He wiped his palms with a damp towel before speaking calmly, "Now you have two choices. You can


    stop selling your body and start living a decent life, or you can get stic surgery and change your


    face... And if I ever catch you selling yourself again with that face, in any ce, I''ll tear you apart!"


    Caroline''s legs trembled with fear, and the manager was on the verge of tears.


    "What had Caroline done to anger this devil?" He thought.


    Benjamin threw a check on the table, his expression cold. "Gredax is a big and safe city, but it''s easy


    for me to make someone disappear."


    The manager copsed to the ground, ovee with fear and shock.


    He was a shrewd person and immediately realized why Benjamin couldn''t stand Caroline.


    Her face bore some resemnce to his ex-girlfriend!


    The manager cursed inwardly: Rich people have so many problems! Caroline only bears a slight


    resemnce to his ex-girlfriend, who isn''t even his woman. He has no right to intervene with her


    livelihood!


    But in the end, the manager knew better than to question the whims of the wealthy.


    He still had Caroline sent back to her hometown overnight, begging and pleading with her to never


    return to Gredax again. After all, the little demon prince of the rk family was not someone to be


    trifled with.


    ...


    Benjamin stumbled, drunk to the point of being barely able to stand.


    The club had sent a driver to escort him to his apartment building, but as he approached the entrance,


    he hesitated.


    He didn''t want to go up! Madelyn was not there!


    Usually reserved and abstemious, Benjamin had lost himself tonight, lying on the ground and vomiting


    until he was dizzy. And when he finally regained some sense, he stood alone under a streemp,


    feeling deste.


    It was in this exact spot that Madelyn had once fed the little white dog.


    Now she was gone, taking everything, including the dog, leaving no trace of sentiment behind for him.


    Benjamin''s eyes were slightly red, and he couldn''t help but call her name: "Madelyn! Madelyn...


    Madelyn..."


    In the distance, a slender figure was observing him intently.


    It was none other than Eleanor Bet.


    She watched him for a long time, seeing him drunk and gazing up at the building upstairs.


    She knew he was missing Madelyn, and it hurt her to see him like this.


    "Ben, do you really like Madelyn?" she murmured to herself.


    She had called him several times recently, but he never answered.


    She had attempted to kill herself, hoping he woulde rushing to the hospital. But it was clear to her


    now that he no longer cared.


    It was as if she didn''t matter to him anymore.


    Ben, do... do you regret choosing me?


    Eleanor walked towards him. "Ben, you''ve had too much to drink," she said softly, attempting to support


    him.


    Benjamin forcefully pushed her away, taking a couple of steps back with bloodshot eyes.


    "Leave me alone! I don''t want to see you..." he muttered under his breath. "It will only upset Madelyn,


    and she''ll cry!"


    Eleanor was stunned. "Ben, I will cry too!" she pleaded, hoping to make him understand that she also


    cared deeply for him.


    But Benjamin didn''t want to hear it. He retorted sharply and hurried away.


    It was as if... if he looked at Eleanor for one more second, Madelyn would never... never return! Yet,


    deep down, he understood the ugly truth - Madelyn was nevering back.


    Just like Daniel had said, Madelyn only needed to heal her wounds, find love with someone else, and


    then get married...


    In the dark of the night, Eleanor trembled with despair.


    She knew she had lost...


    She had paid the ultimate price, cutting her wrist time and time again, just to keep Benjamin by her


    side.


    But she still lost Benjamin''s heart to Madelyn!


    Benjamin''s mind was filled with Madelyn!


    A cold smirk twisted Eleanor''s lips.


    Madelyn, how much more do you want to take away from me?


    ...


    Early in the morning, Madelyn received good news- she was one of the "Top Ten Outstanding Youths"


    in Gredax this year.


    The music studio teachers congratted her on her achievement, and even Penelope from Oriapool


    called to express her joy.


    "Madelyn, we need to celebrate! We should open a bottle of champagne to toast your sess!"


    Penelope eximed.


    Madelyn smiled slightly in response. "I''lle to Oriapool and join you for that champagne!"


    Initially, Penelope wanted to decline the offer, insisting that it wasn''t necessary, but she missed


    Madelyn so much and finally gave in. "I''ll be waiting for you in Oriapool," she conveyed.


    Madelyn was in high spirits. She generously handed out red envelopes to all the employees at the


    music studio, and everyone was happy.


    Just then, her secretary interrupted them and said, "Ms. Green, there''s a Ms. Bet here to see you!"


    Madelyn''s smile vanished within moments of hearing that name.


    Thinking quickly, Madelyn instructed her secretary, "Activate the surveince cameras in the waiting


    room and ask Ms. Bet to wait there."


    Sensing the tension between them, the secretary moved swiftly to make the necessary arrangements.


    Vivian White, who was present at the time, asked Madelyn, "Do you really agree to see her?"


    Madelyn curled into a faint smile as she replied, "Do you really think she''se with an olive branch?


    Unless I make it clear that I won''t bow down to her, she''ll never leave me alone. And I won''t be like


    William Bet and give in to her every whim."


    Despite her fierce demeanor, Vivian still felt sympathetic toward her.


    She had learned everything from David, and the anger towards Benjamin was still simmering within


    her. But Madelyn firmly rejected Vivian''s idea of seeking revenge, insisting that they should cut ties


    cleanly.


    Vivian still couldn''t shake off her concerns and apanied her to meet Eleanor.


    As soon as they entered the reception room, Vivian''s heart sank at the sight of Eleanor.


    This crazy woman had run out in a hospital gown, which was considered extremely unlucky and


    impolite! If she were Madelyn, she definitely would have kicked her out with a broom!


    Nheless, Madelyn greeted Eleanor with a polite smile, "Ms. Bet, what can I do for you?"

    Eleanor fixed Madelyn with a piercing stare.


    Madelyn was wearing a chic green Chanel dress and looked vibrant.


    Eleanor seethed with anger - how could Madelyn look so stunning andposed, and even win the


    Young Outstanding Award with such poise as ever even after Ben had abandoned her?


    Eleanor resolved that she would never let Madelyn have thestugh!


    Despite her inner turmoil, she softened her voice, "I heard that you''re going to win an award and I came


    today to give you a special gift to offer my congrattions!"


    The secretary walked in with a tray of tea, and Madelyn calmly took a sip.


    "Ms. Bet, your kindness is not necessary. We have never had that kind of rtionship," Madelyn


    responded coolly.


    Eleanor reached into her pocket and pulled out a de, her eyes filled with madness.


    "Let''s spill some blood and make Ms. Green''s day a little brighter!" she eximed.


    Vivian rolled her eyes, unimpressed with Eleanor''s show.


    She couldn''t help but remark, "If you''re really set on dying, at least don''t do it on someone else''s


    doorstep," she retorted. "By the way, Benjamin isn''t here. We don''t possess any rare blood to save you,


    so please don''t be reckless!"


    Madelyn regarded Eleanor with a cool gaze.


    Eleanor chuckled, "Ben wouldn''t see me, so I had to track you down instead, Ms. Green. If I cut myself


    and call the police, alleging that you hurt me, how do you think Ben will think about you?"


    "I don''t care what Ben thinks of me," Madelyn replied sharply. "But Ms. Bet''s life is precious, and


    you shouldn''t endanger it."


    Deep down, Madelyn knew Eleanor was not truly prepared to die.


    How could such a selfish person be willing to end their own life?


    Eleanor was like a child throwing a tantrum, trying to reim the candy she had carelessly thrown


    away. And she, Madelyn Green, was just a pawn in her emotional turmoil with Benjamin.


    Eleanor smirked and sliced her wrist gently.


    Then she proceeded to call William Bet. "Daddy, Madelyn hurt me!" she cried, trying to mask the


    glee in her voice. "Come quickly and save me! I''m bleeding heavily..."


    In a calcted move, she also called 911, demanding that the policee and take Madelyn away.


    This way, she hoped to smear Madelyn''s reputation and ruin her chances of bing the


    "Outstanding Youth Award" winner.


    William arrived promptly with several police officers.


    Eleanor wasted no time throwing herself into his arms, sobbing uncontrobly. "Daddy, I just tried to


    reconcile Madelyn and Ben''s rtionship, but she refused and sliced my wrist, trying to kill me!" she


    cried, trying to paint herself as the innocent victim.


    William held his daughter close, his face showing concern.


    He turned to Madelyn and asked, "Is what Eleanor said true?"


    Madelyn met his gaze with a mix of rage and frustration.


    How could he believe Eleanor''s lies over her?


    It was painfully clear that in his heart, he believed Eleanor!


    Madelyn couldn''t help but feel like a fool, remembering not so long ago when Williamy on the


    ground, vomiting blood at her mother''s grave, calling out the name "Madeline" as if his life all depended


    on it.


    His desperate features had even fooled her then.


    But now, she realized that a dog''s loyalty was more reliable than a man''s love!


    She lowered her gaze.


    Thankfully, she had never nned on acknowledging William as her real father.


    Otherwise, she would have got more humiliated!


    Remaining stoic, Madelyn spoke again in an even tone, "Well, the evidence will tell the truth."


    But Eleanor said softly: "The injuries on my hands are real, Ms. Green. I have no reason to frame you."


    She put on a pitiful look and continued, "I even wanted to forgive you because of Ben, but Madelyn,


    you took it too far. I know you''ve always hated me, but I never thought you''d want me dead!"


    William spoke calmly: "Madelyn, I suggest you apologize to Eleanor. If not, we will pursue legal action!"


    Vivian couldn''t hold back her curses!


    "Mr. Bet, are you mentally ill? If there''s a lunatic in your family, make sure she wouldn''t go around


    biting people. You might end up locking yourself up!"


    She was sympathetic to the hidden story.


    William Bet!


    He wasn''t even worth a second thoughtpared to Mr. Green!


    Unlike William, Mr. Green had taken care of Madelyn since she was young and never allowed her to


    suffer any injustice.


    Vivian couldn''t help but reminisce about their college days. Whenever it rained, Mr. Green woulde


    to pick up Madelyn with an umbre. Once, there was a deep puddle at the door, and that man in his


    fifties even carried Madelyn on his back. Every girl in their ss envied Madelyn for being cherished by


    such a loving father!


    Vivian was about to say more.


    But Madelyn gently stopped her. "There''s no need, Vivian."


    She turned to the uncles and spoke confidently, "I have surveince footage with audio. Today, Ms.


    Bet inexplicably cut her wrist and framed me, calling me a lunatic and a criminal. She used me


    of being both. Now, I provide evidence and formally charge Eleanor Bet for defamation and


    personal injury."


    As Madelyn finished speaking, her secretary brought up the video for everyone to watch.


    The uncles watched intently, and Eleanor''s face went through a range of emotions.


    "Madelyn, you''re really cunning, you set me up!" she used.


    "Shut up!" William reprimanded her.


    He was deeply hurt. He never thought Eleanor would do such a thing, and... frame Madelyn! She had


    always been a fairly obedient child, but just a little bit willful!


    William''s gaze fell upon Madelyn as he feebly uttered, "Can we talk?"


    Meanwhile, Eleanor, born with a silver spoon in her mouth, was used to having her way. "Dad, what''s


    there to talk about? Just give her some cash and ship her off like a beggar!"


    Her callous words elicited a resounding p across her face from her father.


    This was the first time William had everid a hand on Eleanor!


    "Eleanor, she''s not a beggar! She''s your own sister!" William implored, visibly upset.


    N?velDrama.Org content.


    Eleanor''s face lost all color.


    How could her father possibly know Madelyn''s true identity?


    She had made sure to destroy that letter...


    The silence in the room was deafening.


    Really? Did the renowned musician William Bet, known for his impable reputation, have


    another child?


    Madelyn''s voice was frozen as she addressed William, "What a ridiculous argument!"


    She locked eyes with him and enunciated every word with precision, "My surname is Green. I am the


    daughter of Samuel Green and Madeline Ryan, with no ties to Mr. Bet!"


    William''s lips trembled uncontrobly.


    He had never imagined that Madelyn would despise him to such an extent that she would refuse to


    acknowledge him as her real father.


    His trembling hands reached into his pocket and retrieved a document -a DNA test confirming the


    biological rtionship between William Bet and Madelyn Green.


    He choked up, "With this undeniable evidence, can you still refute our family ties?"


    Madelyn took the paper from him.


    She chuckled softly: "I finally understand why my mother chose to leave you, Mr. Bet. While we


    may share genes, there is no familial bond between us. Furthermore, as Eleanor''s father, I hate you!


    As for our rtionships with Benjamin, have you cared about my loss when you plead for Eleanor?"


    "Mr. Bet, please do not disturb my mother''s eternal rest. She had Samuel Green, and that was


    enough. My father loved her unconditionally." Madelyn added.


    Madelyn locked eyes with William, fierce and unwavering.


    Then she ripped the test report into tiny fragments, just as her birth had nothing to do with William


    Bet, with only Samuel Green''s tender care evident.


    William stepped back and his face ashen.


    He finally realized the insignificance of his presence in Madelyn''s life.


    He believed that uncovering the truth about Madelyn''s birth would lead to a warm reconciliation with


    Eleanor and forge unbreakable sisterly bonds.


    But now his naive hopes had been shattered!


    Madelyn''s eyes fluttered closed, saying in a gentle but resolute voice, "Please ask Ms. Bet to leave


    with you, Mr. Bet! Otherwise, I will not hesitate to take legal action against both of you. And please,


    do take care of your daring daughter and make sure she doesn''t cause any more trouble!"


    "As for myself, I will always cherish the Green surname." She added.


    Madelyn''s heart pounded in her chest, and her emotional turmoil left her feeling dizzy.


    Within just two weeks, so much dramatic experience drove her finally to sumb to


    unconsciousness...

    Hospital.


    In the white ward, Madelyny quietly while the doctor looked helpless.


    "Mrs. Logan, there''s nothing physically wrong with your daughter, but she subconsciously doesn''t want


    to wake up, so all we can do is wait!"


    Vivian supported Cam.


    Cam was extremely panicked, "So there''s no medical method to wake her up?"


    The doctor shook his head.


    He hesitated for a moment and said, "The patient has been experiencing intense emotional fluctuations


    recently, so perhaps it would be good for her to rest for a while."


    Cam wasn''t sure if the doctor''s words were good or bad, and she remained worried.


    Vivian was also concerned about Madelyn, but she tried tofort Cam first, "There should be no


    major problems. Let Madelyn sleep for another day or two."


    Cam nodded tearfully.


    She brought a basin of hot water and silently wiped Madelyn''s hands.


    Vivian looked at those slender fingers, her eyes bing sore. Cam didn''t know that Madelyn could


    never be a pianist again!


    She wiped away her tears, and Grayson approached with a prescription in hand.


    He lowered his voice, "Why are you crying? Madelyn is fine lying here. Stop crying. It''s unlucky!"


    Vivian nced at him, "I''m just sad!"


    Grayson hugged her.


    He didn''t tell her that earlier at the pharmacy, he saw Jackson apanying Elizabeth for a check-up,


    and their sweetness made him sick!


    But it was OK. If Jackson didn''t cheat, he didn''t have a chance to pursue Vivian.


    Graysonforted Cam a few more words. Cam knew he was Bryson''s cousin, so she felt


    somewhat uneasy.


    At this moment, footsteps could be heard at the door.


    William and Constance came over, wearing unpleasant expressions, especially Constance who


    appeared particrly worried because Eleanor had been arrested!


    When the elders met, the atmosphere became extremely awkward. Cam carefully ced Madelyn''s


    hands under the nket and spoke coldly, "Mr. Bet, what are you here for? Don''t you think your


    daughter Eleanor has caused enough harm to Madelyn?"


    William stared at Madelyn.


    The childy there quietly, as if sleeping.


    Cam smiled bitterly, "The doctor said she doesn''t want to wake up. Mr. Bet, are you satisfied


    now?"


    William choked, "I arrange a doctor for her!"


    Vivian couldn''t hold back and retorted, "Mr. Bet, don''t appear in front of Madelyn and upset her.


    That would be the biggest help you could offer! I beg you to recognize your own identity. No matter how


    prestigious you are, right now you''re just a criminal''s father!"


    Constance became displeased when she heard these words.


    With a stern expression, she said, "Our Eleanor unintentionally hurt her because of her bad mood. She


    wasn''t intentional!"


    Vivian coldly sneered.


    She also turned cold, "Can you cause harm to others just because of a bad mood? Mrs. Carson,


    Eleanor is doomed in thiswsuit!"


    Constance held her position.


    She coldly smiled, "Madelyn holds a grudge because of Benjamin, right? Actually, she hasn''t lost


    anything substantial. I don''t know why she''s being so dramatic!"


    William scolded, "Constance, enough!"


    Constance fell silent, and then William softened his voice and said to Cam, "Madelyn is my flesh and


    blood. The family knows about it now, and my mother really wants to meet her granddaughter! Mrs.


    Logan, I hope you can persuade Madelyn to return to my family, and then I will take her abroad for the


    most systematic music training, to make her a world-renowned musician!"

    Madelyn inherited his talent.


    In this aspect, Eleanor couldn''tpare to her!


    Cam hesitated. She didn''t want to hinder the child''s future.


    Vivian couldn''t help but say, "Mr. Bet! Fuck you!"


    William frowned.


    At this moment, Benjamin happened to arrive. He received news that Madelyn was rushed to the


    hospital and came immediately to see her.


    Constance looked at Benjamin as if she had found a savior. "Ben, just look at Ms. Green''s family. They


    have no manners at all! Madelyn grew up in such an environment, and I doubt if she could be well-


    behaved!"


    She deliberately provoked, hoping to reunite Eleanor and Benjamin.


    Benjamin gently brushed aside her hand and looked at Vivian.


    Vivian also looked at him, then nced at William and Constance. She sneered, "Perfect! Everyone is


    here!"


    Grayson held her back. "Vivian, stop it!"


    Tears welled up in Vivian''s eyes.


    She pushed Grayson away and choked, "Why shouldn''t I say it? Eleanor is a youngdy, a person. Is


    our Madelyn nothing but weeds? Samuel and Cam raised her so well. She is such a good girl, not


    meant to be ruined by people like them!"


    Then she pointed at William and sneered.


    "Mr. Bet, you said that you would take Madelyn abroad to study music. Well, let me tell you now!


    It''s impossible! It will never happen! That night, Madelyn not only lost Samuel, but she also injured her


    nerve in her foot. She can''t drive anymore, and she can''t be a top musician! She admired you


    since she was little. She could use her hands skillfully, just like you. She inherited your talent, but it''s


    because of your selfishness that she lost her talent now!"


    "Mr. Bet, because of you, Madelyn didn''t get to see Samuel for thest time before he passed


    away. Do you know how regretful she is?"


    "Mr. Bet, that night Madelyn lost so much. What will youpensate her with?"


    ...


    Trembling, Vivian said, "Tell me, what will youpensate her with?"


    Mr. Bet''s face turned pale!


    What... She can''t y the piano anymore!


    William, renowned worldwide, wanted nothing more than a talented disciple. Eleanor had limited talent


    and could never be his sessor. God knows how happy he was when he found out Madelyn was his


    child.


    He had watched videos of Madelyn ying the piano. The child was so polished, destined for


    greatness!


    William was in agonizing pain!


    Equally shocked was Benjamin. His handsome face tightened, and he quietly clenched his fists.


    He remembered theirst meeting when he asked her if she would go to Edoford. Madelyn said she


    would never go again. It turns out it wasn''t because she had no dreams anymore, but because her


    dreams were shattered.


    She couldn''t even drive anymore!


    Benjamin struggled to speak, "I want to see her."


    Vivian''s eyes turned red. "Benjamin, Madelyn least wants to see you!"


    ...Madelyn least wants to see you!


    Benjamin never knew a sentence could hurt him so deeply. It pierced his heart like a thorn, causing


    unbearable pain. He wanted to pull it out, but he couldn''t!


    He didn''t force his way into the ward.


    He just looked through the crack in the door at Madelyn, who was lying there quietly, just as obedient


    as when she used toy in his arms, not speaking a word...


    In a hoarse voice, Benjamin said, "At the very least, let me have an expert team take care of her."


    A man like him rarely stooped so low, but now he sincerely said to Vivian, "I just want to make it up to


    her!"


    Vivian was stubborn.


    Grayson held her back. "Don''t be impulsive. The most important thing right now is for her to wake up!"


    When he spoke to Benjamin, he put on a different face and smiled, "Benjamin, Vivian is being


    unreasonable. I apologize to you on her behalf. Madelyn''s matter is in your hands."


    Benjamin didn''t say anything.


    He just watched Madelyn, hoping she would wake up and hold her in his arms again.


    He wanted to ask her to give him another chance, and he wouldn''t let her down again!

    The experts were helpless.


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    In the end, it was Madelyn who woke up on her own.


    It was a beautiful spring night...


    After Benjamin finished discussing with the experts, he heard Madelyn''s voice as he arrived at the door


    of the ward. It sounded weak, but undeniably hers.


    Benjamin''s heart skipped a beat.


    He had never felt such an urgent desire to see someone before.


    He took a few quick steps forward and gently pushed open the door.


    Madelyn was leaning against the headboard, talking to Cam. She looked thinner, and her coffee-


    colored hair cascaded over her slender shoulders, evoking a sense of pity... When she saw Benjamin,


    the smile on her face faded.


    The atmosphere turned subtle...


    Cam stood up uneasily. "You two talk. I''ll be back in a moment."


    But Madelyn tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "Mom, I want to eat soup."


    Cam lovingly replied, "I''ll go buy some for you! Wait for me."


    Cam left...


    Benjamin slowly walked into the ward and stood beside Madelyn. They were so close, yet he didn''t


    dare touch her.


    Longing for home, that was what he felt.


    Madelyn remained calm and polite. "I heard you helped me find experts. Thank you, Mr. rk."


    "It''s my pleasure."


    He greedily stared at her, his voice hoarse and unrecognizable.


    Madelyn looked back at him.


    Then, she spoke slowly, "But there''s really no need for us to be like this anymore! You don''t have to


    take Vivian''s words to heart. It''s all in the past. Since the moment we broke up, none of those things


    have anything to do with you anymore!"


    Benjamin was awyer, a top-notch one.


    In the courtroom, he always had a quick response, but at this moment, he didn''t know how to respond.


    He broke up with Madelyn, thinking it was a dignified exit, but behind that facade was a lifetime of pain


    for her!


    Benjamin walked out of the ward.


    He didn''t leave the hospital, instead, he sat in his golden Bentley and smoked in silence.


    ...


    Their rtionship started from the attraction between two adults. Without the youthful excitement, he


    had always kept this emotion under control. He liked Madelyn, but he believed it wasn''t deep love. At


    least, when they broke up, he casually wrote her a check.


    But it was only after Madelyn took the check and walked out of his world that he realized what he


    couldn''t bear the most: the day when Madelyn belonged to someone else.


    Just like she loved him, she could fall in love with someone else!


    Benjamin leaned back in his seat, his Adam''s apple bobbing up and down as he muttered to himself...


    He used to say that Madelyn couldn''t handle games, but now he was the one who couldn''t handle


    games!


    Benjamin sat in the car all night.


    When the sky began to brighten, he extinguished the cigarette, stepped out of the car, and headed


    upstairs to the ward.


    Madelyn was already awake, sitting and taking her temperature. She wore loose-fitting hospital clothes,


    holding a thermometer in her mouth, looking particrly pitiful, like an injured little creature.


    When she saw himing, a hint of coldness shed in her eyes.


    Benjamin walked over, gently removed the thermometer, and read the temperature - thirty-six degrees.


    Madelyn looked up at him.


    Benjamin''s voice was hoarse. "Come with me!"


    Without waiting for her to resist, he picked her up horizontally and walked out of the ward.


    Madelyn was stunned.


    When she regained her senses, she pounded his shoulder. "Benjamin, what are you doing?"


    Her blows meant nothing to him, Benjamin thought...


    The nurse came to collect the thermometer and was also surprised when she saw them. "Mr. rk,


    where are you taking the patient?"


    Turning a deaf ear, Benjamin quickly carried Madelyn to the car downstairs, fastened her seatbelt, and


    locked the car door.


    Even Madelyn, who was usually calm, couldn''t hold back anymore.


    "Benjamin, are you crazy?"


    As he fastened her seatbelt, Benjamin focused on the road ahead, his voice gentle. "I''ll bring you back


    Madelyn stopped struggling...


    She just said softly, "It''s useless, Benjamin. Your actions won''t change anything! I''d rather you have the


    audacity to write that check like you did before than entangle me like this."


    She wanted the check to make a clean break!


    It was supposed to be consensual, a good ending!


    Wasn''t that what he wanted?


    Madelyn didn''t want to say anything more. She turned her head away, looking out of the window...


    After sitting in the car for a while, Benjamin drove off. Madelyn recognized that they were on the way to


    his t. Indeed, half an hourter, he parked the car downstairs.


    He forcibly carried her into the t.


    At the moment the door opened, Madelyn froze, even if she had mentally prepared herself...


    The Morning Dew.


    Baroque curtains, ake-blue vase,


    Couples'' slippers...


    Everything here was exactly the same as when she lived here before. He even restored the ck


    theme for Valentine''s Day.


    It was all traces of her love for him!


    ...


    Madelyn felt a pang in her heart!


    What was this? Did he think these actions would move her?


    Benjamin embraced her from behind, kissing her tender earlobe. He spoke with extreme emotion, his


    voice husky. "Madelyn, let''s start over! Let''s live like we used to. This time, I''ll treat you well. I''ll find the


    best doctor to heal your foot and ensure that you have no regrets!"


    Madelyn always thought that she had shed all her tears that night.


    But now, seeing all this, she still feels like crying. Only... not because she''s moved, but because she''s


    sad, because she''s heartbroken. All these things remind her of what kind of emotions she had back


    then, how she loved the man, how she waited for him every night, and how she longed for their future


    together.


    But every time he chose Eleanor!


    Regret...


    How can that word define what she lost that night?


    She lost loved ones, dreams, and trust in her lover!


    On that darkest night, she was utterly disappointed with him!


    Benjamin''s gaze was affectionate. He knelt in front of her, holding a sparkling, perfect diamond ring,


    even more dazzling and wless than before.


    Madelyn''s whole body stiffened.


    In that moment, she lost all her strength.


    Benjamin kissed her fingers, his voice hoarse: "Madelyn, I spent a week persuading that Zistin antique


    dealer to sell Morning Dew to me! If your foot doesn''t recover, we''ll y it at home! I''ll y it for you!


    Madelyn... I beg you to let me take care of you for the rest of our lives!"


    "Every year, I''ll be with you on Valentine''s Day."


    "Christmas Day, birthdays, and New Year''s Day... we''ll celebrate them together!"


    "You love children, and we''ll have multiple children!"


    ...


    He wanted to be with her. He wanted to settle down!


    He had never desired marriage like this before!


    Benjamin held her fingertips and gently slipped the ring onto her ring finger... The ring fit perfectly on


    her finger.


    But... Madelyn curled her fingertip back.


    She wouldn''t let him put the ring on her finger!


    Benjamin froze, slowly raising his head...


    Madelyn said calmly, "I''m touched, really! A man who does so much for me must have genuine


    intentions. But Benjamin... Once a cheater, always a cheater! Especially considering your history of


    infidelity! Benjamin, it''s not possible between us anymore, not because of whether you love me or not,


    but... because I''m not willing to love you anymore."


    ...


    Benjamin slowly stood up.


    He looked down at Madelyn...


    In the morning light, there was a fineyer of fuzz on her cheeks, which made her look adorable. But


    her expression was resolute: "Take me back to the hospital. I don''t want anyone to know this!"


    Benjamin reached out and gently stroked her delicate cheek.


    Suddenly, he grabbed the back of her head and forcefully kissed her lips, slipping inside before she


    could react...


    He wanted to kiss her.


    He wanted to awaken all her memories of his body!


    He didn''t believe... He didn''t believe that Madelyn would forget all that!


    A pnded on his handsome face...


    Madelyn''s eyes were red, gasping for breath. "Benjamin, don''t make me lose respect for you! We''re


    impossible now and in the future... impossible, don''t you understand?"

 Chapter 182 How Can I Make You Forgive Me

    Chapter 182 How Can I Make You Forgive Me


    Chapter 182 How Can I Make You Forgive Me


    Red marks appeared on Benjamin''s face.


    He didn''t bother about the p on his face. He only stared at Madelyn. His gaze was dark and gloomy


    like water.


    Madelyn felt a heart-wrenching pain, making it difficult for her to breathe!


    She wasn''t made of wood, she could feel pain too.


    The things she had desperately tried to forget were once again presented before her by Benjamin.


    Madelyn''s fair throat moved slightly.


    She spoke with suppressed emotions, "Benjamin, there are things that can be bought with money, such


    as this Morning Dew, such as these decorations. As long as Mr. rk wants it, there is nothing money


    can''t buy! But emotions, once they''re gone, they''re gone. No matter how much money you spend, you


    can''t bring them back!"


    Benjamin gazed at her.


    He still felt the same way about her as when he first met her - she was beautiful, and he wanted to


    possess her.


    But... there were also some differences now.


    As if, after this incident, Madelyn had be something indispensable in his life. He simply couldn''t


    give her up. If he could, he wouldn''t be in such a sorry state!


    Benjamin struggled to speak, "How can I make you forgive me?"


    He understood women, especially Madelyn!


    He knew that she still had feelings for him. If she was angry or resentful, he was willing topensate


    her, no matter the cost.


    Madelyn felt that she couldn''t continue talking to him any longer.


    She lowered her gaze and smiled bitterly, "Benjamin, when I wanted to talk to you, you didn''t give me a


    chance! Now, why do you think I should give you that chance? Take me back, I don''t even have my


    phone with me!"


    Benjamin pursed his thin lips.


    In the end, he still sent her back to the hospital.


    The car stopped...


    Madelyn undid her seatbelt and wanted to get out of the car.


    Benjamin grabbed her arm and looked at her intently, "I''ve invited the best experts. Perhaps they can


    find a way to treat your foot!"


    Madelyn stared ahead expressionlessly.


    She said, "No need!"


    After speaking, she forcefully broke free from his grasp, opened the door, and got out of the car.


    Benjamin wanted to follow her, but he held himself back when he saw her resolute figure refusing him.


    ...


    In the afternoon, Benjamin was in a meeting at the office.


    His phone rang.


    He saw that it was a call from the medical expert team, so he made a gesture to pause the meeting


    and answered the call.


    On the other end of the phone, a foreign expert told him, "Mr. Bet, Ms. Green has refused our


    treatment. We regret to inform you that we''re returning home! Furthermore... based on the avable


    information, there is less than a ten percent chance of nerve recovery for Ms. Green."


    Less than ten percent...


    Benjamin held his phone, expressionless.

    At night, he went to the hospital, but Madelyn refused to see him!


    ...


    On the day Madelyn was discharged from the hospital, William came.


    He came specifically to see Madelyn and to plead for Eleanor.


    Madelyn spoke softly, "I have no intention of dropping the charges against Eleanor!"


    William visibly paused.


    He silently gazed at the girl in front of him, who looked so much like his Madeline and had a simr


    temperament.


    William spoke gently, "Regardless, she is your sister! Madelyn, can you give her a chance for the sake


    of Dad? I''ve asked Ben about it, but he refuses to intervene. Dad can onlye and ask you!"


    Madelyn listened in a daze.


    Benjamin refuses to help, so that''s why he came to plead with her?


    Did it mean that if Benjamin did help, the Bet family would proudly stand against her in court?


    And... Dad?


    Tears welled up in Madelyn''s eyes, "William, my Dad is Samuel Green!"


    William didn''t give up.


    He said even more softly, "Grandma at home is looking forward to meeting you. She has already taken


    a flight here. When the timees, our whole family will gather together! Listen to Dad, give Eleanor a


    chance, and let''s all live well together from now on."


    Let Eleanor go?


    Gather the whole family!?


    Madelyn felt like she was listening to a joke that had nothing to do with her!


    She smiled faintly, looked up at William, and said, "Mr. Bet, may I ask why my mother left you back


    then? How did she leave you when she was pregnant, and how did you quickly remarry?"


    William''s face suddenly turned pale.


    That past, that misunderstanding... was a perpetual pain in his heart!


    William left in a daze.


    He went to the rk family and sought help from Alexander.


    Alexander received him in the study room, and after some reminiscing, William expressed his


    intentions.


    After hearing him out, Alexander smiled.


    In truth, he was quite displeased with William. If it weren''t for thest time he came seeking help, Ben


    and Madelyn would probably have been engaged and preparing to get married and have children.


    Such a good girl, lost just like that!


    William came seeking help this time, but it''s clear that he just wants to leverage his power.


    Alexander chuckled and patted William on the shoulder like an older brother. He said, "William, if you


    let Ben handle this, it will only make matters worse! Young people tend to be impulsive when ites


    to matters of the heart. I don''t think Madelyn will easily let Eleanor off the hook. After all, Eleanor was


    the one who barged into their lives!"


    William grew anxious and asked, "Do you have a solution?"


    Alexander smiled again and said, "Well, there is a way, but I''m afraid it might hurt your pride."


    William humbly sought advice.


    While sipping his coffee, Alexander continued, "Eleanor''s actions were extreme! ording to normal


    legal procedures, she won''t escape punishment for at least a year or so. So, why not go to a hospital


    and obtain a certificate stating she has a mental illness?"


    William was stunned.


    He looked at his old friend and never expected him to suggest such a method.


    Issuing a certificate for mental illness...


    As Alexander pondered, he realized that this might create no chance for Eleanor and Ben.


    William had thought about it privately as well.


    Madelyn was his own flesh and blood, but she was intelligent, outstanding, and sensible. Even if she


    missed out on Ben, she could find a good match. However, Eleanor was different. From a selfish


    perspective, he hoped Eleanor could end up with Ben!


    Now, Alexander''s attitude made it clear that the rk family doesn''t want Eleanor as their daughter-in-


    William forced a smile after being stiff for a while and said, "Indeed, it could be a solution."


    Alexander knew he wasn''t pleased, so he spoke frankly.


    "William, even if you care about your child, you need to have boundaries! Besides... Madelyn is your


    own flesh and blood. Who should be more important? Don''t confuse your priorities, William! I have high


    hopes for Madelyn. Ben''s mother also had someone read his fortune, and it is believed that his future


    partner must be born in the Year of the Rabbit!"


    William understood the intentions of the rk family.


    They don''t like Eleanor!


    He couldn''t help but feel heartache. Regardless of Eleanor''s stubbornness, she was still his daughter.


    Exhausted and in a rush, he asked someone to help him obtain the mental illness certificate.


    Naturally, Eleanor was released.


    Compared to a few days earlier, her former radiance dimmed a bit.


    The police at the station told her, "You''re lucky to have obtained a mental illness certificate! However...


    we will follow up on this. Ms. Bet, you need to undergo treatment for at least half a month in a


    mental institution; otherwise, this certificate will be invalidated!"


    Eleanor was furious!


    She gritted her teeth, determined not to let Madelyn off the hook.


    Then the police officer added, "It''s best not to entertain dangerous thoughts. Ms. Green found out that


    you obtained a mental illness certificate, and she has already applied for a protection order from the


    court... This means you are not allowed to approach Ms. Green within a two-meter radius. If we receive


    any notifications, we will immediately bring you back to the mental institution!"


    After finishing their conversation, the police officer escorted her into the car and said, "Let''s go!


    Whether you''re truly insane or faking it, you still need to go through the procedures at the mental


    institution!"


    Eleanor struggled and became hysterical, "I want to see Benjamin!"


    The escorting officer sneered, "Mr. rk doesn''t want to see you!"


    Eleanor waspletely stunned...

 Chapter 183 Give It a Try with Me

    Chapter 183 Give It a Try with Me


    Chapter 183 Give It a Try with Me


    After being discharged from the hospital, Madelyn took a trip to Oriapool.


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    She stayed there for a week, keeping Penelopepany. But in the end, Penelope sent her back.


    "There are so many things to deal with in Gredax. Don''t just stay here and apany me. I''m fine!


    There''s sunshine, handsome guys, and many other beautiful things. Even the doctors look attractive."


    Penelope blinked.


    Madelyn smiled lightly, "Alright, then I''ll go back!"


    Penelope apanied her on the car ride.


    Before she left, she held Madelyn''s hands and whispered, "You''ve grown up! You''re different now!"


    ...


    Madelyn had just arrived in Gredax when she received a call from Vivian, who asked her for a gift and


    also invited her to Grayson''s birthday party.


    Madelyn had just put down her luggage.


    She sat on the sofa in her small t and smiled, "I have prepared several gifts for you, but I won''t go to


    the birthday party."


    Vivian whispered, "Grayson didn''t invite him!"


    Madelyn knew exactly who "him" referred to, and after thinking a while, she finally agreed to go.


    ...


    On Friday night, Madelyn went home, changed into a dress, and then took a taxi to the clubhouse.


    The private room was already lively.


    Most of the people were Grayson''s friends, and there were also a few of Vivian''s ssmates whom


    Madelyn knew.


    Madelyn handed over the gifts - a pair of watches that were quite expensive and made in Oriapool.


    Vivian looked at the watches with teary eyes and kept saying, "Too expensive! Madelyn, you''re really


    generous to me!"


    She called Grayson over.


    Deep down, Grayson respected Madelyn.


    Madelyn had stepped one foot into a wealthy family, but she withdrew herself in the end.


    Grayson saw Benjamin desperately trying to reconcile, and if he were a woman, he wouldn''t be able to


    resist. But Madelyn resisted, and for that, he respected her.


    Grayson hugged Vivian''s waist and said pleasingly, "I didn''t lie, did I? I said I didn''t invite him, and I''m


    annoyed with him too!"


    Madelyn smiled lightly, "It would be better if you didn''t mention it, Grayson!"


    Grayson, provoking trouble again, said, "Today, I''ve invited many friends, all of them handsome and


    charming. Madelyn, if you like any one of them, feel free to take him away!"


    Vivian pinched his waist, "What nonsense are you talking about?"


    Grayson was begging for a beating again, and he made a gesture, arranging Madelyn next to Bryson.


    Madelyn didn''t expect to meet Bryson in such an asion.


    But they were both adults now, and avoiding each other would be too petty. Madelyn greeted Bryson


    generously, "Long time no see, Bryson."


    The story between Madelyn and Benjamin was well-known within the small circle in Gredax.


    Bryson looked at Madelyn''s delicate face andplex emotions slid through his heart. He couldn''t


    forget the ten days he spent with Madelyn, nor could he forget when they embraced each other and


    watched the fireworks.


    She was single again, but he was about to get married.


    After a few words, Bryson''s voice choked, "I''m getting married next month!"


    Madelyn offered her congrattions, "Congrattions, Bryson!"


    Bryson felt bitter in his heart.


    He had no feelings for his future wife, and the person he liked was right in front of him, but they could


    no longer be together.


    He smiled lightly, "Thank you!"


    After that, they didn''t talk much. Madelyn silently watched Grayson confessing to Vivian, watched


    othersughing and singing, and watched Vivian curl up in Grayson''s arms!


    She felt a bit envious of Vivian because Vivian dared to love and hate without reservation.


    As for her, she had been caught up in a rtionship and couldn''t easily believe in love.


    Later, Jackson came and caused a scene.


    He had drunk too much and came over with a bottle of alcohol to congratte Grayson.


    "Grayson! I''m not jealous of you at all!"


    "You''re hugging Vivian now, but I also have Elizabeth... Elizabeth is carrying my child in her belly! I''m


    feeling so good, my life is sofortable now! No woman will bother me for drinking and fooling


    around outside anymore. As long as I give her money, a bunch of money, Elizabeth''s mouth will be


    shut. When I get home, I''ll still be the boss, and she will serve me on her knees even with a pregnant


    belly!"


    ...


    Vivian''s face turned pale.


    Jackson stared into her eyes and said, "Elizabeth is due to give birth in a few months. When should we


    go and get divorced? Hurry up and make room for her."


    Vivian responded coldly, "Rest assured. I have no attachment to scum like you!"


    Jackson pointed at her and said, "Alright, alright... Whenever you''re free, let''s get divorced!"


    ...


    "Whoever doesn''t go is a coward!"


    ...


    Jackson left.


    Vivian hid in the bathroom and cried. Madelyn wanted tofort her, but she stopped at the door.


    Behind the partially closed door, Grayson held Vivian and whispered, "Stop crying! Today is my


    birthday. Didn''t we agree to have a happy time?"


    Madelyn didn''t go in.


    She turned around, took her purse, and prepared to leave early.


    "I''ll see you off!" Bryson immediately got up.


    Madelyn gently shook her head and said, "No, thanks! Taking a taxi is convenient for me. Bryson... if


    you''re getting married, treat your wife well and don''t get involved with other women. Otherwise, your


    wife won''t be happy."


    As she spoke, her fair and elegant nose turned slightly red.


    Perhaps she was speaking from personal experience!


    Bryson also realized it and retracted his outstretched hand, smiling slightly. "I will! You take care of


    yourself!"


    Madelyn nodded and said, "Please tell Vivian for me that I''m leaving first."


    Feeling down, she had intended to take a walk outside after leaving the clubhouse. However, as soon


    as she stepped out, she saw a familiar off-road vehicle parked at the entrance, and the person inside


    immediately jumped out upon seeing her.


    It was David!


    He was wearing dark blue jeans with a ck leather jacket on top.


    From the side, his legs were long and straight, which was attractive to girls.


    Madelyn smiled and asked, "David, why are you here?"


    David walked up to her, his gaze somewhat deep. "I just came back from a business trip and heard that


    you''re here... How was your time here? Can I give you a ride home?"


    Looking at his handsome and young face, Madelyn knew what David had in mind.


    He liked her and wanted to pursue her.


    After giving it some thought, Madelyn said, "David, I don''t want to be in a rtionship right now. Please


    don''t waste your time..."


    A slender finger pressed against her lips.


    David''s expression was unusually serious. "Pursuing a girl can only be described as romantic; there''s


    no such thing as a waste... Madelyn, I know you don''t want to be in a rtionship right now, and you


    may not even like me in the future. But I want to give it a try, I want to try and see if we''repatible or


    not!"


    Madelyn looked up at him.


    At this moment, David appeared particrly mature and charming.


    His voice slightly husky, David said, "I like you! I want to be with you! I''m different from Bryson... My


    entire family likes you, and there''s no resistance between us. You just need to enjoy my pursuit!


    Madelyn, give me a chance!"


    The night wind blew, lifting Madelyn''s skirt.


    She stood next to David. What a beautiful and romantic scene!


    David lightly held her delicate shoulder and leaned in slowly.


    He wanted to kiss her...


    Madelyn evaded the kiss, but their noses touched instead, appearing intimate and ambiguous in the


    eyes of others.


    Madelyn admitted that David''s proposal tempted her. Starting a new rtionship could indeed be the


    best way to heal wounds. However, she didn''t want to take him lightly because David was someone


    she valued.


    She gently spoke, "David, can you give me some time to think calmly?"


    Looking down on her from above, David asked softly after a long while, "So, this isn''t exactly a


    rejection, right?"


    What Madelyn said was scattered by the wind...


    ...


    Not far away, a golden Bentley was parked.


    Benjamin sat in the car, silently watching them. The streetlight illuminated his handsome face, revealing


    no emotions.


    He watched as Madelyn gazed tenderly at David.


    He watched as David opened the car door and supported Madelyn''s waist, disying his gant


    demeanor.


    He watched as Madelyn got into the front seat of David''s car...


    Did Madelyn ept David?


    Are they going to be together?


    ... Benjamin''s car remained parked outside Madelyn''s building for the entire night.

    Chapter 184 I''d Rather You Hate Me


    Early in the morning, Madelyn took a walk with Snowy.


    It was early summer, and she wore a white sportswear outfit, revealing a fair portion of her legs, which


    was quite eye-catching.


    At least, Benjamin''s Adam''s apple rolled several times when he saw her.


    He got out of the car and gazed deeply at her. "Walking the dog?"


    Madelyn passed by him, holding Snowy''s leash, and walked towards theke.


    Snowy turned back and barked at him a few times.


    Benjamin lowered his head and lit a cigarette, following her silently.


    Madelyn ignored him.


    She walked the dog for an hour, had breakfast, and bought a pack of toast and milk on her way back.


    While going upstairs...


    Benjamin grabbed her wrist tightly. "You''re with him now?"


    Madelyn froze for a moment.


    Then she understood. He saw itst night and had been following her all the way here!


    Madelyn''s face turned cold. "Mr. rk, we''ve already broken up! My business has nothing to do with


    you, and I don''t need to report everything to you!"


    She forcefully broke free from his grip and quickly entered the t.


    Closing the door, she leaned against it.


    Every time she saw Benjamin, her heart would ache. She couldn''t remain indifferent, but... she didn''t


    want to continue like this!


    What did his repeated entanglements mean?


    Madelyn had considered moving out, but she also thought that she hadn''t done anything wrong. Why


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    should she hide from him?


    ...


    That night, Madelyn rejected David, but he didn''t give up.


    He was smart, doing everything subtly!


    He only appeared four or five times a month, either having dinner at her ce or giving some health


    supplements to Cam. Over time, people in Gredax knew that David liked her and was pursuing her!


    Tonight, David coincidentally ran into Madelyn again.


    He brazenly had dinner at Madelyn''s small t. But at nine o''clock, he left tactfully, not giving Madelyn


    any reason to refuse him.


    Madelyn escorted him downstairs.


    David got into his car, and she hesitated for a moment but ultimately didn''t say anything!


    David smiled.


    When he smiled, he looked young and attractive. Any girl would like him, and even Madelyn was


    slightly stunned.


    David seemed to be aware of it too.


    He leaned close to Madelyn''s ear, his voice full of allure. "You can''t escape from me!" After saying that,


    he started the car with a look of satisfaction and drove away.


    Madelyn stood still in the night...


    The night breeze was pleasant.


    She sat on a bench under a ne tree, gently closing her eyes and enjoying the gentle breeze on her


    face.


    A slender figure appeared, and Benjamin''s gaze wasplex.


    He saw it just now, saw David smiling at her, and saw Madelyn''s rxed expression. He couldn''t bear it


    anymore, lightly pinched Madelyn''s chin, kissed her lips, and slid his tongue in...


    Madelyn wasn''t prepared for it!


    When she opened her eyes, Benjamin was already holding her tightly in his arms. His embrace was so


    tight that it hurt her ribs. His breath filled her mouth.


    "Benjamin, you''re crazy, let go of me!"


    Madelyn pushed him with all her strength.


    But Benjamin held onto her tightly, unmoving. Not only that, he wanted more urgently. Madelyn was


    pressed against a big tree, their bodies touching and rubbing against each other.


    He knew her body too well, targeting all the vital spots.


    He wanted to evoke Madelyn''s memories, to desperately find out if there was still a ce for him in her


    heart... without David, only him, Benjamin!


    Their bodies intertwined fiercely as if he wanted to possess herpletely.


    Madelyn''s eyes turned red, and she pped him across the face. After the hit, her body trembled


    violently.


    Benjamin held her chin tightly again and kissed her anxiously.


    Madelyn stopped struggling.


    She let him kiss her and vent his emotions. She gently turned her face away, tears glistening in the


    corners of her eyes. "Benjamin, don''t make me hate you even more! Without David, there will be


    someone else. I will fall in love and get married. Do you want to follow me for the rest of your life?"


    Benjamin suddenly stopped.


    He rested his forehead against her neck, breathing heavily, his voice hoarse. "Madelyn, I''d rather you


    hate me! If you hate me, at least it means I still have a ce in your heart. But you treat me as if I''m


    invisible. You know I''m downstairs, yet you cook for him, send him off, andugh with him... you give


    him opportunities!"


    "Madelyn, hasn''t your heart softened even a little?"


    "Is it so difficult to give me a chance? Clearly, you still have feelings for me. When I kiss you and touch


    you, you still respond..."


    ...


    Madelyn''s eyes became even more teary.


    She gently closed her eyes. "Yes! Benjamin, I do have feelings for you. Isn''t that a normal reaction for a


    mature woman? Even if I find a male prostitute, I can still have a physical reaction. What does that


    prove?"


    Benjamin''s face turned pale.


    Madelyn stood up straight, facing him in the night breeze.


    "Benjamin, it was you who did''t want!" she said firmly.


    "What''s the point of saying all this now?"


    ...


    After saying that, Madelyn walked towards the t.


    After a few steps, she paused. "Don''te here anymore!"


    Benjamin quietly watched Madelyn''s back. At that moment, he knew Madelyn would never look back.


    No matter what he did, she wouldn''te back!


    "Madelyn..."


    He murmured her name, feeling dizzy.


    ...


    For the next half month, Benjamin was in a state of despair. Besides going to work, he spent his time


    lingering in clubs and drinking. He would often get drunk.


    After enduring for half a month, Alexander personally intervened and brought his son back home.


    A bucket of ice-cold water...


    Ssh! It poured from head to toe!


    Benjamin suddenly sobered up. He wiped his face and said, "Dad!"


    Alexander pointed at him and scolded, "What a disappointment you are! Is drinking useful? Does


    getting drunk bring women back to you? I bet Madelyn finds you even more repulsive when she sees


    you like this! Ben, is this how I taught you?... As a man, if you want something, go fight for it! go grab it!


    Are you less capable than others?"


    Benjamin''s face was gaunt, showing no emotion.


    He fell silent for a while...


    Then, he gently adjusted his shirt cor and said softly, "Dad, I know!"

 Chapter 185 Give Her High-level of Importance

    Chapter 185 Give Her High-level of Importance


    Chapter 185 Give Her High-level of Importance


    Alexander frowned, "What do you know?"


    Benjamin brushed off the ice residue from his body, his expression momentarily dazed.


    After a long pause, he hoarsely spoke up, "Dad, since I broke up with Eleanor, I had no intention of


    loving anyone again, and I thought I would never fall in love with anyone else! When I first got together


    with Madelyn, I thought it was just... just a game of mutual consent. I knew Madelyn liked me, but I


    didn''t n on a long-termmitment!"


    Alexander threw an ashtray at him in anger.


    He was so furious that his eyebrows twitched, "You''re ying with a girl''s emotions!"


    Benjamin didn''t dodge... A trickle of crimson blood flowed down his noble features from his forehead.


    Brianna, who was hiding outside the door, felt heartbroken.


    "Alexander!"


    Alexander showed no mercy, "Don''t plead for this bastard! He has grown up, yet he knows how to y


    with women? Where did he learn this bad habit? ... Today, I won''t let him get away with it!"


    Brianna dared not plead anymore.


    Alexander lit a cigarette and blew out a smoke ring, "Why aren''t you saying anything? You are capable


    of doing such things, so why are you too ashamed to admit it? Mr. rk, you must be so proud of


    yourself strutting around outside! Let me tell you, in the past, someone like you would be called a


    hoodlum. It wouldn''t be a bad thing if you get shot. How can you think you are an honor for the rk


    family?"


    Benjamin stared directly at his father.


    He looked lost, "Dad, I never expected that I would fall in love with Madelyn! It was only after she left


    that I realized how desperately I wanted to salvage our rtionship. I did things I wouldn''t have done


    before, but she doesn''t want me anymore! Dad... I don''t know what to do to make here back!"


    Alexander hadn''t had a chance to give advice yet...


    Benjamin''s expression suddenly became resolute, "But I won''t stand by and watch her be with


    someone else."


    "David is not an option for her!"


    "No one is!"


    ...


    After Benjamin finished speaking, he turned around and left!


    Brianna wanted to stop him.


    Alexander spoke in a deep voice, "Let him go. He''s twenty-nine years old; he knows what he should


    do!"


    Beautiful Brianna was filled with worry.


    Could it be that Ben has taken the wrong path? His words just now sounded not good!


    But Alexander was quite satisfied.


    He took a drag of his cigarette and nced at his wife, "A woman''s mercy! This is what being a man is


    about! Fight for what you want, what you desire. Do you want him to hide and drink every day, waiting


    for Madelyn to get married before embarrassing me all over again?"


    ...


    After Alexander''s reprimand, Benjamin no longer attended social gatherings. He seemed to have


    transformed back into the fierce king in the legal sphere. Only this time his methods became even more


    ruthless, often leaving people chilled to the bone.


    There were frequentints filed against the rk family.


    Brianna cried to her husband, "With Ben''s reputation like this, I think he''s really going to remain single!"


    Alexander sneered, "What do you know! There are countless girls outside who want to sleep with Ben.


    They''ve been pursuing him from one end of Gredax to the other! It''s just that our son has high


    standards and is fixated on one person!"


    Brianna looked at her son in the newspaper once again.


    Handsome, sexy...


    That face was full of allure!


    What''s the use if he''s still single!


    ...


    A month passed, and it was time for Madelyn to receive the "Top Ten Outstanding Youth in Gredax"


    award.


    Madelyn brought Cam to attend the ceremony.


    Cam had been sad for a long time, but today she felt unusually happy.


    Backstage, she tidied up Madelyn''s cor several times, feeling that one side needed smoothing out,


    while the other needed perfecting.


    Madelyn smiled faintly, "Mom, it''s already in ce!"


    Cam also smiled, "I just feel like it''s not perfect enough! Today is your big day, so cheer up!"


    Madelyn nodded.


    Just then, the emcee came over and whispered, "Ms. Green, it''s time for you to go on stage."


    Madelyn put her arm around Cam''s shoulder, "Take more photos of me!"


    Cam hurriedly adjusted her clothes again, "Don''t mess up your clothes. Go on, go on. I promise to


    capture my daughter looking radiant."


    Madelyn went up on stage with a smile.


    But when she saw the presenter on stage, her smile slightly stiffened.


    It was none other than Alexander presenting her with the award!


    At this moment, there were thousands of people in the audience, with major media outlets and radio


    stations live broadcasting. And there was Alexander, staring at her with a pleasant smile, affectionately


    calling her, "Maddie,e over here!"


    The media was in an uproar!


    Many people knew about the rk family, the wealthiest family in the north, who almost had a


    daughter-inw before.


    And that person was none other than Madelyn right in front of them!


    In most high society dramas, conflicts escte and rtionships are shattered, making it truly


    unexpected to witness such an amicable ending!


    Madelyn couldn''t force a smile.


    She wasn''t stupid; she suspected that Alexander had used some connections to help her receive this


    award, and the underlying purpose didn''t need to be said.


    But with countless camera shes aimed at her, she couldn''t afford to loseposure!


    Madelyn forced a smile and went up on stage to receive the award.


    The fact proved that Alexander is just as "impudent" as his son. After presenting the award, he didn''t let


    Madelyn go and even put his arm around her shoulder, as if he were an elder, asking the media to take


    more photos.


    "It''s not often that we get to present an award to a younger family member! I''m delighted!"


    "I will engrave the photos and put them in my office!"


    "Remember to take good photos of our Maddie. Girls love to look beautiful!"


    ...


    The media was once again buzzing with excitement.


    Key words detected... younger family member, put them in the office, our Maddie!


    Madelyn could hardly force a smile.


    Alexander was in control of the situation.


    She faced a dilemma: leaving would createplications, while staying would imply an unclear


    association with the rk family.


    The old ginger is still hot!


    After some filming, Alexander finally let go of Madelyn, but he publicly smiled and said, "To celebrate


    your achievement, I have specially prepared the best coffee for you. Try itter, and if you like it, take


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    some home."


    Madelyn understood that Alexander wanted to talk to her.


    She had no way to refuse such a powerful businessman. If he made a slight move, her small Music


    Center could cease to exist.


    The award ceremony ended.


    The secretary of the rk Group personally came to pick up Madelyn.


    It was her second time in this office, a ce symbolizing power.


    It was here that she had agreed to Alexander''s conditions and expressed her willingness to go to


    Edoford. As she stepped in again, a wave of emotions washed over her.


    Compared to the first time, Alexander seemed even more kind and caring.


    He brewed coffee for Madelyn and sat across from her. After the coffee was served, they got down to


    business.


    Alexander went straight to the point, "I know you''ve been wronged! But I want to say a few words to


    you from the heart about marriage... every couple goes through ups and downs. Ben was at fault, but


    he has repented. He went through a period of extreme foolishness and decadence, which pained his


    mother and me greatly, but we were even more furious!"


    Madelyn remained silent.


    Alexander continued, "It''s all Ben''s fault!"


    He picked up a thick file from the coffee table and pushed it gently toward Madelyn.


    Madelyn looked up.


    Alexander, whose face was handsome and shrewd, still smiled. "My secretary told me that your Music


    Center is doing very well. Madelyn... I have great hopes for you. These are all the rk family''s real


    estate properties, estimated to be worth billions. Ben''s mother doesn''t care about these things, so I


    want to entrust them to you for management."


    The control over billions of wealth was indeed tempting.


    These generous conditions also represented trust. It was difficult for someone like Alexander, a shrewd


    businessman, to hand over such important matters.


    It is impossible for Madelyn to not be moved at all.


    She stared at the file, knowing that as soon as she signed, her wealth would instantly multiply. She


    might even be the richest woman in Gredax.


    But she refused.


    She spoke with difficulty, "Mr. rk, these things are indeed enticing! However, what I want is not a


    prestigious family. I only want a husband who belongs to mepletely. The various experiences I


    went through with him have made it impossible for me to trust him again. Therefore... I''m sorry, and I


    can only say that I am not worthy."


    After saying this, Madelyn stood up.


    She bowed to Alexander, feeling grateful to this man who had always treated her kindly.


    Madelyn left.


    Alexander''s secretary came in quietly and asked gently, "Should we try to keep Ms. Green?"


    Alexander waved his hand.


    Pointing to the file on the coffee table, he said to the secretary, "She is quite impressive. No wonder


    Ben couldn''t let her go!"


    The secretary nodded with a smile.


    Alexander chuckled, "A girl like her deserves to be the daughter-inw of our rk family."

    Chapter 186 Only He Can Make Her Cry!


    Chapter 186 Only He Can Make Her Cry!


    As Madelyn was about to leave, she ran into Benjamin at the elevator entrance. He was holding a file,


    looking like he was there for a business discussion.


    Benjamin walked out of the elevator while Madelyn stepped in.


    He stopped the elevator doors from closing with his hand.


    It had been a while since theyst saw each other, and he missed her so much. But in the end, he just


    pretended to be calm and asked, "How have you beentely?"


    Madelyn was leaning against the elevator wall.


    Madelyn felt she was too weak to say anything as their eyes met. After a moment, she softly replied,


    "Not bad."


    Benjamin was gazing at her.


    In a husky voice, he spoke, "I''ll be attending the celebration banquet tonight. Are you...going to dance


    with David?"


    Madelyn paused.


    In fact, she hadn''t invited David, and she wasn''t his date. However, if David were to show up, dancing


    with him was also part of normal social interaction.


    Madelyn chose not to deny it.


    Benjamin just kept smiling and didn''t show any signs of displeasure. Instead, he said affectionately,


    "Have a great time!"


    After saying that, he left.


    Madelyn felt a shiver down her spine.


    Somehow she thought Benjamin, who appeared soposed, was even more formidable than when


    he was persistently pursuing her. The way he looked at her indicated that he hadn''t given up, but he


    pretended he didn''t care about it at all.


    She almost didn''t want to attend the banquet.


    However, as one of the ten outstanding young persons, she had already attracted attention earlier in


    the day. The influential figures in Gredax wouldn''t let her skip the banquet. With just a few phone calls.


    She had to show up anyway.


    ...


    The banquet took ce on the 32nd floor of the Diamond Hotel.


    Prominent figures who were dressed formally and elegantly filled the room.


    It was a good opportunity to expand her socialwork, and Madelyn wouldn''t give it up for personal


    reasons. Holding a ss of champagne, she socialized with other guests.


    Vivian was also here with Grayson and asked him to introduce Madelyn to several connections.


    Madelyn was confident and had easy manners.


    She had to ignore the gaze on her from the second floor...


    Benjamin stood on the balcony of the banquet hall, dressed in a suit and tie. Leaning against the


    railing, he quietly stared at Madelyn, though the emotions in his eyes were so strong that even Vivian


    could tell he was in love with her.


    She leaned in close to Madelyn and whispered in her ear, "Just by the way he looks, it seems like he


    hasn''t been with anyone since you two broke up. He couldn''t take his eyes off you."


    Madelyn didn''t need to look at him.


    When they were together, Benjamin had an insatiable desire for her. He often looked at her with that


    longing gaze. With his handsome appearance and charm, few women could resist him.


    Many socialites were peeking at him...


    A lot of women in Gredax secretly fantasized about sleeping with Mr. rk.


    But Madelyn had no interest in that. She ignored his gaze, acting as if he weren''t there.


    Instead, she epted the invitations of other gentlemen and danced with them. She made a deliberate


    effort to draw a line between her and Benjamin and let everyone know that she had nothing to do with


    the rk family.


    During thetter part of the banquet, David came to her.


    Lately, David had been busy, and it had been a week since he had been around her.


    As David walked over, he looked over to the second floor.


    Benjamin gracefully raised his champagne ss to David!


    His captivating demeanor made the hearts of the women in the room skip a beat. Vivian whispered to


    Madelyn, "Aside from being a total jerk, he''s ridiculously good-looking. Actually, everyone in their circle


    is quite attractive, but none of them couldpare with Benjamin!"


    Madelyn coughed and said, "Should I tell Grayson about this?"


    Vivian quickly pleaded for mercy.


    Just then, David was standing in front of her and extended his invitation to Madelyn, "Ms. Green, may I


    have the honor?"


    Vivian covered her face with her hands.


    Damn! When David was serious, he looked really charming!


    Madelyn smiled, ced her hand in David''s, and epted his invitation.


    She knew Benjamin was watching, and she knew he was probably seething with anger. But she didn''t


    want to change who she was for him.


    When Madelyn danced with David, they attracted everyone''s attention.


    They looked at these two hugging on the dance floor and then turned to look at Mr. rk.


    How dramatic!


    Would Mr. rk fight with David and take Ms. Green away?


    The city of Gredax was witnessing it...


    When everyone was watching excitedly, Benjamin walked down stairs covered in white carpet. He was


    mature and handsome, literally looking like a walking statue.


    Benjamin approached the piano and whispered a few words to the young pianist who then stepped


    aside.


    He sat in front of the piano, ced his slender fingers on the ck and white keys, and skillfully yed


    the enchanting melody of Lost Lover.


    It was Madelyn''s favorite song!


    As Benjamin yed, his eyes, filled with deep affection, were fixed on Madelyn.


    He was already good-looking...


    His ying the piano even made women scream in admiration!


    His ex-girlfriend was dancing with someone else while he was apanying her on the piano and


    gazing at her with loving eyes, which no women could resist...Benjamin had captured the hearts of all


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    the women present!


    Just as he said, he effortlessly got whatever he wanted!


    Madelyn felt herself growing tense...


    She couldn''t continue dancing!


    What should have been a nice evening, a delightful banquet, was ruined by him!


    Why did Benjamin always make her cry?


    Why... did no one else but him have the power to do this?


    Tears shimmered in Madelyn''s eyes when she realized that.


    And there he sat in front of the piano, the starter of all this, still gazing at her tenderly. He asked gently,


    "Madelyn, are you having a good time tonight?"


    Madelyn''s heart raced in her chest.


    She told herself not to lose control. She couldn''t... let herself cry before so many people!


    Trembling, she mustered a smile and replied, "If Mr. rk would kindly stop bothering me, I believe I


    would be even happier!"


    Benjamin lowered his gaze and gave a light smile.


    "I can''t do it! Madelyn, seeing you dance with someone else made me angry! But I didn''t know what to


    do, so I yed the piano for you. I wanted to see you smile! Did I upset you? If you''re not happy, I can


    change. I''ll do whatever it takes to make you happy."


    His seemingly considerate words left everyone astonished!


    Vivian pinched her thigh, feeling sorry for Madelyn!


    How did her friend end up with such a difficult man? He was so scheming, wasn''t he?


    If they didn''t know any better, they would think Madelyn had betrayed Benjamin!


    Madelyn turned away and left.


    At that moment, she forgot everything and forgot they were on the live broadcast. All she wanted was


    to escape from Benjamin!


    As she walked away, tears welled up in her eyes.


    Benjamin caught up with her before she went into the elevator. He asked, "Are you angry?" he asked,


    trying to hold her back.


    Madelyn shook off his hand.


    She turned to him and asked, "What''s the meaning of this, Benjamin? Please, with your status, there


    are plenty of young women throwing themselves at you. Can''t you just leave me alone? I can''t handle


    this anymore, okay? I''m begging you, let me go!"


    Benjamin pushed her into the elevator and closed the doors behind them, leaving those who were


    watching them outside.


    Inside the confined space, there were just the two of them.


    Madelyn couldn''t hold back her tears...


    Benjamin''s heart skipped a beat. He gently wiped away her tears and spoke softly, "Many women


    desire me, but I want nobody but you, Madelyn... Please don''t make me angry. Otherwise, I don''t know


    what I might do! By the way... Has David stopped bothering youtely?"


    Madelyn''s eyes widened suddenly.


    Benjamin''s voice still sounded very gentle, "I just used some tactics to keep him busy, so he wouldn''t


    have time for you. Madelyn, maybe soon, or...something else might happen to him. I can''t promise


    that!"

 Chapter 187 This is Benjamins doing!

    Chapter 187 This is Benjamin''s doing!


    Chapter 187 This is Benjamin''s doing!


    Madelyn was trembling with anger.


    Filled with frustration and wrath, she asked, "Is this what you want, Benjamin? Do you have to push me


    to the point where I have no friends and no family?"


    Benjamin sneered.


    "And what kind of friend is David to you?"


    "Everyone can see through his intentions towards you!"


    ...


    Madelyn knew that Benjamin wasn''t joking. When he set his mind on something, he would go to great


    lengths to achieve it. If he said he would deal with David, he meant it.


    Madelyn couldn''t afford to take any risks.


    David was her friend and had helped her several times. She would rather distance herself from him


    than involve him in this.


    But resentment was festering in her heart!


    She hadn''t done anything wrong. She had simply fallen in love with him. Little did she know that love


    could also turn out to be a sin. If that was the case, she wished she had never loved Benjamin in the


    first ce!


    Madelyn lowered her head and smiled.


    She muttered, "You don''t love me. You''re angry because your precious toy is taken away from you!


    Benjamin...love isn''t about possession. If you love someone, set them free!"


    Stone-faced, Benjamin asked, "Like David?... What kind of love is that if I don''t want to have you?"


    At least, that''s how he saw it.


    If he desired something, he should go after and get it!


    Madelyn fell silent.


    Benjamin took a step forward and reached out to touch her face, but she avoided his hand.


    ...


    "Now you won''t even let me touch you?"


    ...


    Benjamin withdrew his hand and adjusted his shirt while meeting her gaze in the mirror.


    The elevator doors opened.


    David was standing outside and looked at Madelyn with tender eyes, saying, "Let me take you home."


    Madelyn''s body stiffened.


    She thought of Benjamin''s warning.


    But David gently put his arm around her shoulder and whispered, "You look like you''re about to cry.


    Let''s go back."


    Madelyn didn''t know what was the right thing to do.


    But in the end, she looked at David and got into the car with him.


    ...


    Late night in the hotel lobby...


    Benjamin stood under the dim light and smiled as he watched Madelyn get into David''s car.


    Madelyn wouldn''t let hime near her!


    Then he had to patiently wait for her to return to his side!


    ...


    Madelyn wanted to have a talk with him, and David could sense it.


    While waiting at the traffic lights, he lit a cigarette and took a puff. He asked, "Is there anything you


    want to say to me?"


    Madelyn turned her head and looked at him, saying, "David, we should stop seeing each other."


    "Because of Benjamin?"


    Madelyn didn''t deny it.


    They hadn''t reached that point yet, and she didn''t want him to get caught up in her troubles. He


    deserved a better life, and she didn''t want his life ruined because of her. It was not worth it.


    David was smoking slowly.


    As the traffic light turned green, he pressed the elerator and drove Madelyn back to her apartment.


    Leaning back in his seat, he said, "Madelyn, I''ve liked you for a long time. I once gave up, maybe the


    time when I fought with Daniel at the restaurant. I knew Benjamin had feelings for you, and I gave up


    because I couldn''tpete with him, and neither could the James family with the rk family. But this


    time... I don''t want to give up!"


    David looked at her and added, "Even if it means I will lose everything."


    Madelyn was lost for words.


    She hadn''t made any promises to David, yet he was willing to take such risks for her. If she were in her


    early twenties, she would stand by his side.


    But at the age of 25, she had matured beyond impulsive decisions.


    "David!"


    Madelyn closed her eyes. She wanted to apologize, but she had also liked someone before.


    Loving someone wasn''t a mistake.


    Seeing her so worried, David chuckled.


    He reassured her, "Madelyn, this is a fight between men. I''m willing to do anything for you, and you


    needn''t feel guilty."


    How could Madelyn not feel guilty?

    She returned to her apartment and sat quietly on the small sofa.


    Snowy curled up by her side...


    Her phone was just beside her hand, but after hesitating for half the night, in the end, she didn''t call


    Benjamin.


    ...


    In the following two weeks, she didn''t see David.


    However, in the financial news, she often came across headlines featuring David''spany Ors


    Technologies. Most of them were negative, and there were also reports about its capital chain rupture.


    Madelyn called Vivian and asked her out for coffee.


    At half-past two in the afternoon, Vivian who looked great sat down across from Madelyn. She said,


    "What a rare sight. You a real busy bee actually find time for me. Is this about David?"


    Madelyn smiled and asked, "Is it that obvious?"


    "Of course!"


    Vivian ordered a cup of coffee and took a sip before replying, "Grayson mentioned that David''s


    eighteen hours a day."


    Madelyn paused.


    That overwhelming feeling of helplessness washed over her.


    With a wry smile, she asked, "This is Benjamin''s doing, isn''t it?"


    Vivian didn''t directly answer her question. Instead, she held Madelyn''s hand and said, "Benjamin is


    exceedingly astute. David falls far behind him in terms of power and connections. Yet, David refuses to


    give in! Madelyn, try talking to him!"


    Madelyn had tried before.


    But David told her he wouldn''t give up even if he lost everything.


    Stirring the coffee in the cup, Madelyn was lost in thought for a long while. Then, she smiled and said,


    "I will."


    Vivian held Madelyn''s hand tight.


    Deep down, they both knew that attempting to persuade David would be in vain. His aim wasn''t to be


    with Madelyn; he was simply fighting for her honor.


    The only one capable of stopping this was Benjamin!


    After finishing her coffee, Madelyn decided not to hail a cab. Instead, she walked slowly back to her


    apartment.


    Benjamin''s golden Bentley Continental was parked in front of her apartment.


    He sat in the car puffing on a cigarette, and the door of the passenger seat was left open as if he was


    waiting for someone.


    When Madelyn approached, he looked up and stared at her.


    Madelyn got into the car and, nced ahead, and asked, "Benjamin, what exactly are you up to?"


    Benjamin put out his cigarette and chuckled.


    "Are you feeling sorry for David?"


    "Don''t you know what I want? It''s simply for you to assure me that you won''t see or talk to David. Is that


    too difficult?"


    Madelyn was shocked by his shamelessness.


    He had set a trap for David which nearly made David''spany go bankrupt, and he did that only to


    stop her from seeing David?


    "Benjamin, you''ve gone too far."


    Benjamin stared at her for a moment and scoffed, "I haven''t even asked you toe back to me and


    live with me, and you think I''ve crossed the line?"


    "Living together?"


    Benjamin kindly rified, "I mean eating and sleeping together."


    Madelyn suddenly became quiet and sat beside him in an unusually tranquil manner.


    Benjamin was gazing at her profile...


    It had been days since hest saw her. If it weren''t for David, she wouldn''t have gotten into his car or


    even spoken to him.


    Benjamin felt jealous!


    Finally, Madelyn made a move. She opened the mini-fridge in the car, grabbed a can of ice-cold c


    and pulled the can''s tab with her hand... And Benjamin just watched and didn''t attempt to stop her.


    The icy c spilled directly onto his pants.


    The freezing sensation made Benjamin almost jump out of his seat!


    He looked at her deeply.


    Madelyn gritted her teeth and said, "Benjamin, you can clean that with your own hands!"


    With those words, she opened the car door and tried to get off, but Benjamin grabbed her and locked


    the door. He said in a husky voice, "You''ve spilled the coke on my pants, and now you want to run


    away? Aren''t you responsible for cleaning them?"


    Madelyn tried to pull her hand out of his grip, but she failed. He forced her to wipe the stain off his


    pants... As she was wiping, Benjamin''s Adam''s apple bobbed slightly. He asked, "Madelyn, did you do


    that on purpose?"


    She shook his hand off.


    Benjamin continued to stare at her and was trying to suppress his emotions.


    Their gazes were meaningful.


    Benjamin spoke softly, "Madelyn, it''s been a long time since we had sex. I''ve missed you."


    Tears welled up in Madelyn''s eyes...


    Everyone has sexual needs, but how could Benjamin say he wanted her after breaking her heart?


    Once again, she felt that they were not equal in this rtionship.


    She slightly tilted her head and tried to maintain herposure.


    With all her strength, she calmly replied, "I''m sorry, but I don''t want that."


    She expected him to get angry...


    To her surprise, Benjamin didn''t show anger. Instead, he gently caressed her tender cheek, just like he


    had done so many times before!


    His tenderness made Madelyn''s heart ache!


    Benjamin said, "The ss of this car is tainted. Madelyn, I want you so badly!"


    ...


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Then he held her in his arms tightly.


    She gritted her teeth and asked, "Benjamin, what are you doing?"


    He held her slender waist and whispered huskily, "Don''t resist, or I can''t promise I''m going to do


    anything to you. Be a good girl... It''s your fault for spilling c on me. I only intended toe and see


    you! Madelyn... I miss you so much..."


    Madelyn couldn''t escape.


    She could only turn her face away and chose not to look or listen...

 Chapter 188 Are You Satisfied Now?

    Chapter 188 Are You Satisfied Now?


    Chapter 188 Are You Satisfied Now?


    After a long while...


    Benjamin''s moaning gradually stopped.


    Inside the car, it was tense.


    Madelyn was forced to lie on his shoulder, and her eyes were watery. Even though he hadn''t really


    done anything to her, he was a total jerk!


    Feeling humiliated, she asked, "Benjamin, could you let me go?"


    Benjamin''s slender fingers gently ran through her brown hair and eventually rested on her shoulder,


    trying to foster romantic intimacy.


    Madelyn didn''t move, for every move would make her even more embarrassed.


    Once Benjamin quenched his desire, he turned his head and tried to kiss her...


    Madelyn evaded his kiss and said, "I want to get off the car!"


    Benjamin lifted her hair and looked at her delicate, porcin-like face. After he was pleased, he was


    very considerate and caring. He said, "Your dress got stained. Let me clean it for you."


    Madelyn wanted to do it by herself at first, but as she nced at the dress, she gave up.


    Benjamin meticulously wiped away the mark on her dress.


    Then, he said in a low voice, "Madelyn, let''s go back to how we used to be."


    Madelyn slowly moved back to the passenger seat, and her face remained expressionless as if he was


    the only one that took the earlier tenderness seriously. She stared ahead and said coldly, "Being in a


    love triangle is suffocating."


    Benjamin exined, "I don''t love her."


    Madelyn gave a mocking smile.


    She said slowly, "Benjamin, as long as the bond between the rk and Bet families remains, you


    will always have contact with Eleanor. Just like her divorce case, can you stay out of it?"


    Benjamin remained silent.


    Madelyn found it pointless and just said calmly, "I want to get out of the car."


    This time, Benjamin didn''t stop her. He opened the car door for her. Suddenly a gust of fresh air rushed


    in, and he felt a sharp pang in his lungs.


    Without looking back, Madelyn walked away.


    Back at her apartment, Snowy wagged its tail and came to Madelyn. She poured some dog food into


    the bowl, saying, "Take your time eating."


    She then headed to the bathroom to take a shower.


    She just threw the dress tainted by Benjamin into the trash bin.


    After her shower, Madelyn sat in her apartment for a while. It wasn''t until her limbs started to tingle that


    she realized it was already 10 o''clock. The television continued ying in the background while Snowy


    was chewing on a bone.


    Madelyn decided to make a phone call.


    "Alexander, I''d like to meet with you."


    ...


    In the rks'' mansion...


    Alexander was happy to receive her call. It seemed that Madelyn had finallye to her senses!


    Brianna''s eyes even glistened with tears.


    She held her husband''s hand and said, "You should make a good impression on her tomorrow and put


    in a good word for Ben. You can also bring Eloise along with you. I can tell Madelyn really likes Eloise


    and dotes on her!"


    Alexander said, "But Eloise is one year older than Madelyn!"


    ...


    Alexander was filled with anticipation, thinking that Madelyn would marry into their family. However, she


    came toin about Benjamin.


    He politely bid farewell to Madelyn.


    Once she was gone...


    His face turned grim, and he said, "Get Ben here!"


    The secretary immediately took action, and within half an hour, Benjamin came over.


    From the President''s Office of the rk Group, the sound of porcin shattering came, apanied


    by Alexander''s furious shouting, "I told you topete, not to target the James family! Owen is my


    acquaintance, while you nearly ruined his son''spany just for pursuing your wife. Who the hell


    taught you that?"


    Benjamin stood amidst the broken pieces...


    His forehead was wounded again.


    Wiping away the blood, he replied slowly, "Dad, didn''t you set that example for me?"


    Alexander was furious.


    When had he ever taught him such things?


    He mentioned that men should fight for what they want, but they shouldn''t harm the dignity of others.


    After theirst conversation, he thought Ben would have be more reasonable, but now he seemed


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    even more reckless!


    He continued to scold him.


    Suddenly, Benjamin spoke up, "Did Madelyne to you?"


    Alexander hummed in response.


    Benjamin said indifferently, "You don''t need to worry about us. I''ll take care of it."


    Alexander red at him.


    "How are you nning to take care of it? Ben, let me tell you, you need to stop being a jerk. Don''t


    scare Madelyn away. She came by earlier, and it looked like she had cried!"


    After all, he was Benjamin''s father. How could he not want his son to seed?


    Alexander patted his shoulder and said, "Even strong-willed women can be moved by persistent


    suitors. Be more patient."


    Benjamin nodded and walked away.


    After he walked out of the office, Alexander called the secretary over and asked, "Has he gone?"


    The secretary smiled and replied, "Yes!"


    Alexander leisurely made himself a cup of coffee, but suddenly he paused and chuckled, "Ben did a


    remarkable job!"


    The secretary was perplexed.


    Alexander smiled and exined, "After what Ben did, how can I, as his father, openly apud his


    actions? How can I face Owen in the future? The younger generation shouldpete for a girl''s love


    through their own means. We elders can only y dumb and pretend we know nothing..."


    The secretary attentively served him and continued, "And what about Ben...?"


    Alexander chuckled again, "He''s my son, and he knows what he should do!"


    The secretary was in awe.


    ...


    In the evening, Benjamin drove to Madelyn''s apartment.


    He rang the doorbell.


    Madelyn saw him through the peephole but hesitated to open the door. Benjamin said coldly, "I have a


    document in my hand that you might want to see. If you don''t open the door, I promise I''ll make it public


    right away."


    Madelyn had to open the door.


    After the door was opened, their eyes met, and they stood there in silence for a long time.


    Benjamin gazed at her deeply.


    He even asked her gently, "Have youe to my father? Is it to get rid of me and save David?"


    That familiar sense of helplessness washed over Madelyn once more.


    She was truly exhausted.


    Almost pleadingly, she spoke to him, "There is nothing between me and David! Benjamin, can''t you let


    me have normal social interactions and normal friendships?"


    "But I can''t help but feel jealous."


    Benjamin stood at the doorway and said softly, "I know you and him can never be together, because


    deep down, you still have feelings for me. But every time I see him walking you home and helping you


    into the car, it bothers me."


    He handed her the document.


    "Take a look at this. I believe you will make the right choice."


    Madelyn knew he was capable of anything now, so she quickly opened it.


    With just one nce, her face turned pale.


    It contained evidence of Owen''s misconduct, and if any of it was leaked, it would ruin Owen''s career as


    awyer and even destroy his reputation.


    Madelyn clenched her fist.


    She looked up at him in disbelief and asked, "Benjamin! Have you lost your mind?"


    Benjamin reached out, gently caressed her face, and said with a smile, "I know how much you respect


    Owen and care for Florence. You want them to have a good life, don''t you?"


    ...


    Madelyn stood there and stared at the document in silence.


    Tears dripped down her cheeks.


    She felt she was losing something precious, like... her freedom!


    Her tears blurred the words on the page.


    Her eyes in tears, she looked up at him and forced a faint smile, saying, "Benjamin, you win! I promise


    you, from now on, I won''t see David or have any contact with him... Are you satisfied? If so, then just


    leave!"


    She didn''t want to see him!


    She didn''t want anything to do with him.


    Benjamin remained still, and she repeated, "Mr. rk...rest assured. From now on, I won''t meet


    anyone you dislike. I will seek your approval before meeting with anyone. Are you satisfied?"

    Madelyn''s words dripped with sarcasm.


    Benjamin felt his heart aching. He lowered his head and, after a long pause, he called out her name,


    "Madelyn..."


    Madelyn made no response.


    She tore the document into pieces silently.


    Then, she looked at him as if he were a stranger and said, "Benjamin, I hope you''ll keep your promise!"


    He gazed at her, as he made a phone call to put an end to all the suppression against Ors


    Technologies.


    It was over...


    Benjamin watched her back and wanted to reach out and touch her, but Madelyn''s body stiffened


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    instantly. He withdrew his hand and said with a forced smile, "I won''t touch you! Madelyn, could you


    make me a meal?"


    Madelyn didn''t respond.


    Benjamin couldn''t help but hug her from behind. He rested his chin on her shoulder and muttered,


    "Please make me a meal. It''s been so long since I had a proper meal. I can''t sleep well at night when


    you''re not by my side."


    He was always... thinking of her!


    Madelyn pushed him away.


    She stood in the dark by the window and spoke in a hushed tone, "Benjamin, when I wanted to love


    you with all my heart, you didn''t give me a chance. Now I don''t want it anymore! And... I can never see


    David again, but I cannot be with you anymore. If you try to force me, I won''t mind perishing together!"


    She turned her head and said, "Mr. rk, I believe public figures like you value their privacy, and even


    a single slip could tarnish your impable image, don''t you think?"


    Benjamin wasn''t surprised.


    After spending so much time together, it was natural for her to know some things. Of course, if those


    things were revealed to the public, they wouldn''t cause much harm.


    But now, seeing her so furious, he was willing to take a step back.


    "I''ll leave now... Remember to have your meal!" His tone was gentle as if he had changed into a tender


    and affectionate lover, and the threats from earlier tonight had never happened.


    Before he left, Benjamin lightly caressed her back.


    Madelyn froze and found his touch disgusted.


    He paused and said in a husky voice, "Madelyn, I know you resent me, but I don''t regret it!"


    Madelyn sneered.


    Of course, he had no regrets because he hadn''t lost anything...


    ...


    The next day, Madelyn went to the Music Center and immersed herself in work.


    Benjamin called several times, but she didn''t answer.


    He often sent flowers and ordered exquisite meals from fancy restaurants, but Madelyn never epted


    them.


    A weekter, Vivian called.


    "Madelyn, David is going to the South for a business venture. His flight will take off at two o''clock this


    afternoon! ording to Grayson, he won''t be back for at least one or two years, maybe even longer!"


    Madelyn held her phone and stood by the floor-to-ceiling window.


    She hummed.


    Vivian asked, "Do... Do you want to go and bid him farewell?"


    Madelyn tilted her head slightly, and after a moment, she replied, "No, there''s no need. Please convey


    my regards...Never mind."


    Vivian sighed.


    After hanging up the phone, Madelyn was still standing and gazing at the blue sky and white clouds.


    David was leaving...


    But she would never forget that on that darkest of nights, it was David who walked to her and filled her


    heart with hope and love. She also remembered his words when she was feeling lost, "Madelyn, let''s


    give love a chance!"


    She wished David a happy life.


    ...


    Almost at noon, the secretary entered and said, "Ms. Green, the applicant for the driver is here. Should


    I bring him in now?"


    Madelyn replied, "Please, let hime in."


    The receptionist blushed and hurriedly left, which made Madelyn confused. Why did she blush for no


    reason?


    Soon, she knew the reason.


    The office door was pushed open, and the applicant walked in. Immediately, his long legs caught


    Madelyn''s attention. As she looked up, she saw a young and captivating face.


    He had almond-shaped eyes, a prominent nose, and thin lips.


    He looked like a model!


    Without hesitation, Madelyn rejected him, "You must havee to the wrong ce. We are hiring a


    driver here."


    He tossed a folder onto her desk.


    "That''s the fucking job I''m applying for!"


    The fucking...


    Madelyn looked down at his file.


    Nics Zachary, 23 years old, from Esrand, having a height of about six feet, with measurements


    that...


    Madelyn cleared her throat and said, "Mr. Zachary, due to certain reasons, we cannot hire you."


    Nics sat on her desk and argued, "I am a professional race car driver. Offering to drive for your


    humblepany is an act of generosity."


    Madelyn frowned.


    She responded calmly, "The monthly sry is 1 thousand dors, and we don''t provide


    amodation. Take it or leave it!"


    She expected that he wouldn''t ept such an offer.


    To her surprise, Nics chuckled.


    Drawing closer to her, he said, "My cards have been suspended, and with 1 thousand dors a month


    without amodation, are you asking me to sleep rough on the streets? It''s not safe for a guy as


    good-looking as me."


    Madelyn continued attending to other work.


    She simply said, "Given your appearance, 10 thousand dors a month wouldn''t be a problem."


    He got angry and retorted, "Damn! I''m not a rent boy."


    Madelyn pressed the inte button and asked the secretary to escort the gentleman out. Her


    in the Music Center would be able to focus on their work.


    The secretary blushed, feeling sorry for him.


    Nics said indignantly, "It''s lucky for you that I am willing to drive for you. God damn it!"


    Just then, Cam entered the office, carrying a lunchbox in her hand.


    She hade to bring lunch to Madelyn and saw a tall and incredibly handsome man standing in the


    office.


    He looked so attractive! He was radiant from head to toe.


    Cam couldn''t contain her joy.


    Nics immediately rushed forward when he heard Madelyn call Cam Mom. He helped Cam sit


    down, took the lunchbox from her hands, and said to her exceptionally politely and respectfully, "You


    must be Ms. Green''s mother! Why did youe all the way here on such a hot day? Don''t worry, I''m


    Ms. Green''s driver. If you ever call, I''ll be there to pick you up in an instant! Don''t get your fair skin


    tanned."


    Cam sized him up, her face beaming with a smile.


    Madelyn was speechless. He must be really good at acting!


    Nics sat down next to Cam, blinked his eyes, and said, "The monthly sry is only 1 thousand


    dors, and I have no ce to stay!"


    Nics looked as sweet as a little puppy and stared at her with trusting eyes. Cam couldn''t resist it


    and asked Madelyn, "Don''t you have dormitories here?"


    The secretary quickly answered on behalf of Madelyn, "We only have female dormitories!"


    Cam felt a bit sad for him.


    He was such a good-looking and sweet boy!


    Despite previously referring to himself so arrogantly, he was looking at her with puppy eyes. Cam''s


    heart softened, and she said, "I still have a vacant room. Let Nics stay with me!"


    Madelyn was against it.


    How could she allow this stranger with an unknown background to live with Cam?


    But Cam genuinely liked him. They spent the whole afternoon chatting, and when she left, she was


    very happy and insisted that Madelyn must hire Nics.


    Seeing that Cam was in a good mood, Madelyn''s heart softened.


    Ever since her father passed away, Cam had been in low spirits. Having someone as cheerful as him


    around might make her happier.


    Madelyn flipped through some documents and said, "Go and have a medical examination this


    afternoon. If everything is fine, you can start working tomorrow."


    Nics, who had been swinging his legs, suddenly jumped up.


    "A medical examination? I''m healthy as fuck!"


    Madelyn rang the secretary''s extension and said, "Please get Mr. Zachary out of here."


    Nics raised his hands in surrender, saying, "Alright, alright, I''m going... Will youe with me?"


    "Dorothy..."


    "Okay, okay, I''ll go by myself."


    Madelyn smiled and added, "I''ll be waiting for your medical report."


    Nics smirked, leaned closer to her and said, "I''ll show you that I''m healthy as hell!"


    ...


    "Call me Ms. Green, and if you say a curse again, I''ll deduct 20 dors from your sry!"


    ...


    Nics walked to the door. Suddenly, he turned back and said to her with with indescribable emotions


    in his eyes, "Ms. Green, see you tomorrow!"


    Madelyn hadplex feelings.


    She could tell that Nics came from a privileged background. Just his shoes alone were worth


    thousands of dors, and the watch on his wrist was a rare collector''s item from Patek Philippe. So she


    wasn''t worried that he might harm Cam.


    He probably was a runaway from a wealthy family.


    The next day...


    Nics came over with his medical report.


    He leaned against Madelyn''s desk and said, "Everything is perfect!"


    Madelyn nced at him and ordered, "Back off!"


    Nics took a step back and said in azy voice, "From now on, I''ll work for Ms. Green. I''ll be there


    whenever needed...I''ll do anything you ask. And, of course, I excel at driving. I have great skills. Would


    Ms. Green like to give it a try?"


    Madelyn said expressionlessly, "Besides chauffeuring for me, thepany also has a delivery truck for


    transporting equipment. There will be designated personnel to coordinate with you."


    "What the hell! You are treating me like a workhorse!"


    "Have you ever seen someone as good-looking as me doing manualbor?"


    ...


    "There''s a popr nightclub called the ck Horse Club nearby. They''re always hiring!"


    ...


    Nics leaned in and said to her seductively, "Not just anyone can touch my body."


    He winked yfully.


    Madelyn spoke sincerely, "Actually, you''d be a great fit for working there. I believe that within two


    months, you''ll be a sensation in Gredax and be the top in the industry. It''s a waste of your talents


    to work for me."


    Nics seemed dissatisfied.


    He took out his phone and made a call, "Cam, Ms. Green wants me to be a gigolo!"


    Madelyn was shocked.


    How did he get Cam''s number? This guy...


    As a result, Cam stood by Nics and scolded Madelyn. She also asked her to bring Nics home


    for dinner and invited Nics to spend the night over.


    After hanging up, Madelyn lowered her head and continued reading the documents.


    After a while, she said, "The faucet in the second-floor restroom is broken. Go and fix it."


    Nics swung his long legs.


    Damn it! She was getting back at him!


    While he was repairing the faucet, he identally got his shirt soaked. He just walked through the


    Music Center shirtless. All the young female teachers blushed, but couldn''t resist ncing at him from


    time to time.


    His v-taper waist, muscr rear, and impressive six-pack abs!


    Really pleasing to the eye!


    His upper body naked, Nics settled into the driver''s seat of Madelyn''s car. Almost immediately, he


    Madelyn was sitting in the back and browsing the documents. Hearing his words, she calmly replied,


    "The delivery truck is cheaper!"


    Seeing him shirtless, she ordered, "Put your shirt back on!"


    "It''s too wet to wear."


    "Did you send me to fix the faucet on purpose because you wanted to see me naked...for free!"


    ...


    Madelyn furrowed her brow and asked, "Did you forget to get a mental health check during your


    medical examination?"


    Nics started the car.


    After a while, he retorted, "Should I also get a check-up in urology for Ms. Green?"


    Madelyn wished she could fire him right now!


    He had such a foul mouth!


    She decided that after tonight, she would entrust him to take care of Cam exclusively.

    Chapter 190 Old Sweetheart?


    A champagne-colored BMW slowly drove into the neighborhood where Cam lived.


    Cam had prepared dinner in advance and greeted them with a smile when they returned together. "I''ll


    cook another dish real quick."


    Madelyn handed her a box of chocte.


    Cam loved eating them.


    Cam epted it and nced at Nics. He looked so spirited and energetic.


    Nics was particrly well-behaved in front of Cam. He addressed her as "Mrs. Logan" and even


    offered to help in the kitchen. Cam couldn''t bear to let him, so she smiled and told him to take a


    shower first.


    Nics immediately picked up his luggage and went into the small room. His skilled manner made


    Madelyn suspect that Nics might be a rtive from Cam''s side of the family.


    Cam finished cooking, and Nics came out of the room still wet.


    He looked good in anything, especially with his long legs.


    He sat next to Cam, picking up food for her and serving her rice, just like a loving son. Madelyn felt


    some aversion toward certain aspects of him, but she couldn''t deny that he knew how to make Cam


    happy. Seeing Cam''s joy, Madelyn couldn''t help but feel happy too.


    While they were having dinner, the doorbell rang.


    "I''ll go and answer the door," Nics volunteered.


    Cam whispered softly, "This boy is really good, enthusiastic and polite." Madelyn smiled.


    On the other side, Nics opened the door to find a middle-aged refined man and an olddy outside.


    "Who are you looking for?"


    William came with his mother and wife. When he saw the person who opened the door, he was


    momentarily stunned.


    Did hee to the wrong ce?


    No, he didn''t!


    He asked politely, "Is Madelyn home?" Hearing his voice, Madelyn felt repulsed, but Cam gently


    pressed her hand and said, "Guests have arrived! Your father always taught you that we must not


    neglect courtesy." Madelyn forced a smile. Cam weed the Bet family inside without offering


    any furtherment. Madame Bet had a look as if she was about to cry, "My precious


    granddaughter lives in such a house! Sob... William, you are not a good father."


    William remained silent, his face gloomy. Madelyn''s expression remained indifferent. "I''m doing fine!


    Mr. Bet, you don''t need to feel guilty!" Cam poured them coffee. Madame Bet wanted to hold


    Madelyn''s hand, but Madelyn avoided it.


    The olddy looked heartbroken, "Why won''t you acknowledge your roots? William has countless


    properties, and if youe back, all these things will be left to you and Eleanor. Your father and I


    would never favor one over the other." Madelyn felt numb hearing those words.


    These people only wanted their own flesh and blood and didn''t care about the pain she had to face in


    front of Eleanor. They didn''t really want to take her in; they just wanted her to reconcile with Eleanor.


    Madelyn was expressionless... Nics looked at her and then took a toothpick in his mouth, saying to


    Madame Bet, "Only a few pennies, and you''re acting like this?"


    William''s wife was displeased.


    She looked at Nics and guessed that he was probably an employee, sneering, "You''ll never earn


    this much!"


    Nics put down the toothpick.


    He smirked, "I have several billion right now, want some?"


    William''s wife was trembling with anger.


    "William, look at the people around Madelyn. I''ve said before that her upbringing is tooplicated.


    She''s not suitable for the Bet family. Inparison, Eleanor''s surrounding is much simpler!"


    William hesitated. "Madelyn, is he really okay to stay here?" Madelyn smiled coldly.


    "Mr. Bet, my feet can no longer drive. Do you have any objections to me hiring a driver?"


    "And, whether I''mplicated or simple, I can''t climb up to the Bet family. You should go back!"


    ...


    Nics stood beside her, swaying his body. "That''s right, don''t disturb my family while we''re having a


    meal!"


    ...


    Madelyn gave him a sharp look. Who said they were family!


    But this little wolf-dog had quite a fierce temper. With him here, guarding the Logan family, the Bet


    family wouldn''t be able to cause trouble easily.


    With this thought, Madelyn found him more agreeable!


    William''s face turned pale. If Madelyn couldn''t drive because of her foot, did that mean she couldn''t be


    a pianist either?


    He stepped forward, earnestly pleading, "Madelyn,e abroad with me. I will find the best doctors to


    treat you... You possess my finest genes. Once your foot recovers, you will surely shine brightly."


    Madelyn gave a cold smile.


    Nics snorted, "So you''re looking for an heir!"


    William wanted to exin, but Nics urged them to leave, "Go, go! We didn''t make your dinner. It''s


    unbelievable. One after another. But you can''t be so shameless!"


    William''s family was infuriated. Constance, who was born and raised in Esrand, gritted her teeth


    outside. "Who is that little brat?"


    However, William seemed a little absent-minded.


    He remembered the look in Madelyn''s eyes just now. Besides unfamiliarity, there was only indifference,


    without a trace of warmth. Constance noticed his thoughts and gently stroked his arm. "We still have


    Eleanor, William. Eleanor is our true child! Raising is more important than giving birth. Madelyn wasn''t


    raised by us, so it''s natural for her to be estranged."


    William thought of Eleanor and felt a hint of tenderness in his heart.


    One of his only two wishes now was for Eleanor to have a good future after the divorce. If that could


    happen... their family would beplete!


    ...


    Once they left, Madelyn remained silent.


    Cam spoke up proactively, "They won''t be allowed in anymore!"


    She actually felt sorry for Madelyn. She had always thought that having a biological father''s love would


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    make things better for her, but she wasn''t blind. The Bet family didn''t care much about Madelyn,


    and they couldn''t bepared to that crazy wench.


    Madelyn patted Cam''s hand. "Mom, I''m fine."


    Nics sat down to have dinner.


    He attentively served Cam, behaving affectionately, "That''s right, Mrs. Logan, don''t get upset. With


    me by your side, I guarantee you''ll live afortable and radiant life every day!"


    Cam couldn''t help but burst intoughter...


    ...


    Madelyn was somewhat worried, so she stayed here for one night.


    The little wolf-dog managed to make Cam happy.


    Madelyn was quite satisfied. She woke up early in the morning and prepared to go to work. But as soon


    as she went downstairs, Nics was leaning against the champagne-colored BMW,zily greeting her,


    "Good morning, Ms. Green!"


    Madelyn coughed lightly. "Just apany my mom."


    Nics, with a coffee in hand, said, "But Mrs. Logan asked me to apany Ms. Green all day. What


    should I do? Whose orders should I follow?"


    Madelyn didn''t dwell on it any longer.


    She got into the car and spoke softly, "Go to the music studio on Bora Road!"


    Nics made a gesture and stepped on the elerator.


    As expected of a race car driver, the car sped away, as if it were a moving overtaking machine. The


    journey that should have taken half an hour waspleted in just fifteen minutes...


    With a squeak, the car stopped in front of the office building. Nics got out of the car, opened the door


    for Madelyn, andined, "Can you sit next to me from now on? Sitting in the back is making me


    feel old. Only rich old men and women sit in the back."


    Madelyn looked at him, "I am your boss!"


    She stepped into the elevator and turned around, "I won''t need the car in the morning. Go back and


    apany my mom. Go grocery shopping and chat with her!"


    Nics leaned against the elevator, wearing an evil smile, "I got it. You want to possess me. You want


    me to get closer to your mom first, and then you can make your move! Ms. Green, confess your


    feelings early so that we can avoid unnecessary detours."


    Madelyn stepped into the elevator and threw a sentence at him.


    "Go get a psychiatric evaluation!"


    Nics was like, "Damn!"


    But he obediently went, and even brought back a receipt to request reimbursement. "Look, I''m perfectly


    normal! By the way, I also got a check-up about my male ability... Special vitality. Do you want to take a


    look?"


    Madelyn ignored him.


    She looked at an invitation in front of her, which was Bryson''s wedding invitation.


    On Saturday evening.


    She couldn''t believe that Bryson would invite her to his wedding, especially after her unpleasant


    encounter with Felicity. Just when Madelyn was puzzled, Bryson called her personally. He said it was


    Grayson''s request this time. Grayson and Vivian got together and Grayson wanted to bring Vivian to


    the Wyatt family''s wedding banquet. He wanted Madelyn to apany them, preferably. Madelyn


    hung up the phone and touched her forehead, feeling helpless but unable to refuse.


    Nics tapped the table, quite dissatisfied, "Wedding? Your old sweetheart?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to talk to him about these things.


    In a cold voice, she said, "There''s a piano that needs to be moved to the headquarter. Go and help!"


    Nics ground his white teeth, "Ms. Green, you really know how to use people. I''ve given my all for


    you... I don''t care, I want to attend the wedding of your old sweetheart and enjoy the free food and


    drinks. You have topensate me!"


    ...


    Bravo Legal Firm.


    A big shot came today, Tyler Zachary, the richest man in the south of Esrand. Tyler sat in Benjamin''s


    office, exchanging pleasantries, "Ben, you''re doing great here!"


    Benjamin humbly replied, "It''s nothingpared to Mr. Zachary!"


    Tyler made a few more modest remarks before stating his purpose, "Ben, I won''t beat around the bush.


    I came to Gredax for two reasons. First, I want to attend the Wyatt family''s wedding. Second, I''m here


    to find my wayward son, Nics. He left home quietly, leaving a note saying he came to Gredax to do


    something big. I''m worried that he doesn''t have any money with him!"


    Benjamin thought of the little wolf dog.


    He smiled faintly, "It''s good for young people to experience some hardships. Mr. Zachary, don''t worry!"


    Tyler sighed, "That''s easy to say, but I''m always worried he might go astray... Ben, you''re familiar with


    Gredax, do me a favor and look for Nics!"


    Benjamin still had a smile on his face. "Of course."


    Tyler was impatient but genuinely missed his son. He sighed softly, "I don''t know where Nics is now,


    and whether he''s wandering the streets... Anyway, let''s meet at the Wyatt family''s wedding on


    Saturday!"


    Benjamin saw him off politely.


    After Tyler left, Paisley entered. "Mr. rk, should we check Nics'' information now? He must be


    using electronic devices, and I believe we can find something within half a day!"


    Benjamin took a sip of coffee.


    He smiled lightly, "Mr. Zachary spoils his son too much. Boys need to go through something


    themselves."

 Chapter 191 Steal Your Woman!

    Chapter 191 Steal Your Woman!


    Chapter 191 Steal Your Woman!


    Benjamin said this, and Paisley didn''t say anything more.


    She felt that Mr. rk was doing it on purpose.


    Paisley left, and Benjamin took out his phone and opened the photo album. There was a picture of


    Madelyn ying the piano, looking peaceful and beautiful... He looked at it for a while, then suddenly


    realized that despite their intimacy, they didn''t even have a single photo together.


    Benjamin gently touched the photo.


    These days, Madelyn ignored him, didn''t respond to him, and still resented him.


    She resented his words that night.


    She resented that he wasn''t by her side when she needed him.


    She resented his ruthless actions against the James family!


    But she didn''t know that even if she didn''t agree, he wouldn''t really do anything to Owen. Her easy


    Benjamin smiled bitterly to himself. He deserved it!


    ...


    After work, he drove to her Music Center.


    Madelyn had also just finished work and was sitting in the newly bought champagne-colored BMW. She


    couldn''t drive, so there was a driver sitting in the front.


    Through the ss, Benjamin couldn''t see the driver''s face.


    But based on his instincts, he could tell that it was a decent-looking young man, tall as well...


    Benjamin felt a bit ufortable.


    But he had to digest this difort himself. Madelyn not being able to drive was indirectly caused by


    him, and with David''s situation, he didn''t dare to easily inquire about her personal matters.


    At this moment, the BMW slowly passed by, with the rear window open. He could see Madelyn''s face


    and even hear her talking to the person in the front. Her voice sounded gentle...


    Benjamin didn''t move.


    After a moment, he sent a WhatsApp message to Madelyn, [Does the driver have to be this young? ]


    Madelyn didn''t reply for a long time.


    Unable to resist, he asked again, and this time Madelyn had blocked him on WhatsApp!


    ...


    Nics was driving.


    He had seen that pretentious Mr. rk earlier, and it felt great just seeing him like that. He intentionally


    said, "Is that the old man who was driving the golden Bentley just now? Your ex-boyfriend?"


    "We broke up!" Madelyn asked, "How did you know?"


    Nics licked his lips and said excitedly, "I had a conflict with him!"


    Normally, Madelyn would deduct 20 dors from his sry, but this time she didn''t say anything, so the


    little wolf dog guessed, "It seems you like him! Ha... Don''t be fooled by his current appearance. These


    Madelyn ignored him.


    Nics touched his handsome chin and muttered to himself, "Compared to him, my charm is


    omnipresent!"


    ...


    The next day, Madelyn used his charm.


    Her Music Center is quite high-end, with a caf¨¦ for parents to rx in and serving coffee and snacks


    every day.


    But the business had always been slow.


    Madelyn arranged for Nics to go there. "When I don''t need the car, you can sit there and rest."


    The little wolf dog sat there for a while and ran back.


    He wasn''t stupid. Damn it, once he sat there, the number of customers skyrocketed, and the caf¨¦


    became crowded...


    "I''m not selling myself!"


    Madelyn drank her coffee and read the newspaper. "Don''t you like it when women admire you? Now, it


    satisfies your vanity and also increases the revenue of the Music Center. It''s a win-win situation."


    Nics snatched the newspaper from her hand.


    "I want a raise!


    "And I want to buy clothes... I want to go to the wedding and you will buy me a suit."


    ...


    He thought Madelyn would refuse, but she unexpectedly agreed.


    Madelyn nodded: "Fine, I''ll give you a 5%mission on the revenue! I''ll buy you the clothes first, and


    I''ll deduct it from themissionter."


    Nics looked disdainful. "So stingy... And you''re running the Music Center, not a shady club!"


    Madelyn continued reading the newspaper. "If you don''t want to do it, then forget it!"


    "I''ll do it! Damn it, I''ll do it!" The little wolf dog muttered, "Buy me expensive clothes, I won''t wear the


    cheap ones!"


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Madelyn felt like she should spend some money on him.


    She took him to the mall and bought him a suit, a moderate-priced dark brown one for 2,000 dors.


    The little wolf dog wasn''t pleased. "Can I even wear such cheap clothes?"


    But when he put it on, he looked quite handsome, especially with those long legs...


    Madelyn didn''t spoil him.


    She swiped her card and said coldly, "Your monthly sry is only 1,300 dors!"


    Nics quickly calcted that 1,300 dors wasn''t even enough for a night out with a girl. So, he had


    to cling to Madelyn for now, and he sweet-talked her, "Ms. Green, you look so beautiful when you swipe


    your card!"


    Madelyn threw the receipt at him. "I knew you had the potential to be a top yer!"


    Nics wasn''t ashamed.


    He followed behind Madelyn, unting his long legs and being extra servile. "What should I do? I only


    want to serve Ms. Green."


    The salesperson blushed!


    Could he say that?


    Madelyn turned around and smiled. "With your new clothes, serve the Music Center well."


    She hinted at something, and the little wolf dog jumped up again, "Hey, I told you I''m not selling


    myself."


    ...


    On Bryson''s wedding day.


    Madelyn looked at the invitation card, feeling a bit absent-minded.


    Time flew so fast. In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed. Bryson was getting married, and


    Grayson and Vivian seemed to be getting along well. People around her were gradually finding their


    partners...


    Nics changed into his suit and walked in, only to see Madelyn in a daze.


    He leaned against the desk, took the invitation card from her fingers, and shouted, "Are you still


    thinking about your ex-boyfriend?"


    Madelyn remained expressionless. "Remember your role!"


    "I know, I''m the driver!" Nics sneered at her, "Hey, are you scared to go see Benjamin, the hypocrite,


    tonight? That''s why you brought me along to bolster your courage... I knew you wouldn''t want to spend


    money on me!"


    As he spoke, he became more dissatisfied.


    Madelyn put away the invitation card and said seriously, "You don''t have to go if you don''t want to. Wait


    for me in the car!"


    How could Nics agree?


    He came all the way from Esrand to Gredax, working as a driver in this lousypany just to annoy


    Benjamin. Today was the perfect opportunity!


    ...


    The car stopped at the entrance of the hotel, and Madelyn took Nics upstairs.


    Inside the elevator, the little wolf dog didn''t know how to stand. His long legs were awkward.


    He nced at Madelyn.


    She was wearing a smoky-colored long dress tonight, no expensive jewelry, just a pair of pearl


    earrings. It was already quite low-key, but in the eyes of the little wolf dog, she looked inexplicably


    beautiful.


    More beautiful than all his ex-girlfriends!


    The little wolf dog''s gaze was chasing her. After a while, he shouted again, "The tie is too tight. Adjust it


    for me!"


    Madelyn helplessly had to tiptoe and adjust it for him.


    As she leaned in, there was a faint fragrance about her, quite appealing.


    Nics mumbled lightly, "Did you ever tie a tie for Benjamin?"


    Madelyn visibly froze.


    Those were the things she deliberately forgot, but they suddenly came rushing back.


    The night she first had sex with Benjamin, the next day he had to go to thew firm, and she knelt on


    the bed to tie his tie... They had countless memories of such entanglement afterward.


    It pained Madelyn''s heart, and she didn''t want to think about it anymore.


    Nics saw her expression and guessed what she was thinking. He snorted lightly.


    Just at that moment, the elevator door opened...


    Benjamin and Grayson were standing there, about to enter the elevator, but they didn''t expect to see


    this scene.


    Madelyn looked up, helping the devilishly handsome little wolf dog with his tie. Their appearance and


    interaction were pleasing to the eyes, but in Benjamin''s eyes, it was ring.


    Nics!


    It was actually Nics!


    This kid came all the way from Esrand to Gredax, not doing anything, just attaching himself to Madelyn


    as a driver!


    Benjamin felt jealous.


    But his status and position told him getting jealous of a little kid would lower his status, and it wasn''t


    eptable to embarrass himself on such an asion.


    Madelyn finished adjusting the tie, turned around, and was also stunned.


    The atmosphere became awkward...


    In the end, it was Grayson who broke the tension with a smile. "Madelyn, a new boyfriend?"


    Madelyn didn''t say anything.


    But Nics had a happy look on his face. "I''m with Ms. Green every day, picking her up and dropping


    her off at work. I also live at Mrs. Logan''s ce... She bought me this suit. I don''t know if this is


    considered a boyfriend."


    He deliberately spoke flirtingly, and Grayson was shocked.


    He thought Nics was a prostitute and smiled. "Oh, Madelyn, I didn''t expect this! Well... It''s not bad!"


    After speaking, he looked at Benjamin with sympathy!


    Benjamin skillfully took out a cigarette and raised his chin. "You go down first!"


    Grayson left awkwardly.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn. "Do you know who he is?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to talk to him. In fact, Nics didn''t matter to her. He was just a driver in the


    Coincidentally, Vivian called her, so Madelyn made an excuse and left.


    Nics didn''t leave.


    He leaned against the aisle, looked at Benjaminzily, and said, "What a coincidence, Mr. rk. We


    meet again! Look, you stole my ck diamond card, and now I''m here to steal your woman! By the


    way... Don''t think you can use the same method you used on David to deal with me. I''m broke now,


    with a sry of only 1,300. If you want to get rid of me, I''ll immediately pack my bags and dive into Ms.


    Green''s bed, let her support me!"

 Chapter 192 The Son of the Southern Wealthy

    Chapter 192 The Son of the Southern Wealthy


    Chapter 192 The Son of the Southern Wealthy


    Madelyn and Vivian entered the banquet hall.


    Madelyn was observant and noticed that at their table there were mainly the younger generation of the


    Wyatt family. Madelyn understood that Grayson was truly serious about her.


    Bryson''s mother came over and exchanged pleasantries with Madelyn in a polite manner.


    Madelyn smiled and presented a gift of money. The expression on Bryson''s mother''s face was


    somewhat subtle. Initially, she looked down on the girl in front of her, but after Madelyn had a falling out


    with Benjamin and left the prestigious family, she couldn''t help but view her in a different light. Though


    Bryson''s marriage was decent, as a mother, she could tell that Bryson wasn''t very happy.


    Seeing Madelyn tonight, she couldn''t help but sigh.


    Madelyn wasn''t someone who dwelled on the past. She just smiled faintly, and it was at this moment


    that Nics came over and plopped down beside Madelyn. His captivating appearance immediately


    caught everyone''s attention in half of the banquet hall.


    William had some connections with the bride''s family, and Eleanor''s family was present, seated at the


    neighboring table.


    When Eleanor saw Madelyn stealing the limelight, she was displeased. Constance whispered, "He''s


    just a driver, don''t take it to heart!"


    Eleanor pursed her lips.


    Now, she wanted topare everything with Madelyn. In the past, she had been proud of herself


    because she had some fame in the piano world, but her limited talent prevented her from breaking into


    the mainstream. She had witnessed Madelyn ying the piano, and that talent made her jealous!


    Fortunately, Madelyn could never be a pianist again in the future!


    Hmph!


    She thought Madelyn was impressive, but it turned out she''s just average. Heartbroken and sad, she


    found a driver who only looked decent on the surface. The man''s only redeeming feature was his face!


    Eleanor felt relieved, believing that Ben would soon grow tired of Madelyn!


    ...


    At that moment, Benjamin returned.


    With his status and position, he sat at the main table surrounded by prominent figures from various


    industries.


    Alexander and Tyler were also present!


    Having been dealing with different people, Benjamin flourished among the older men. He chatted


    leisurely while smoking, ncing at Madelyn from the corner of his eye... Her dress today looked


    beautiful!


    Following his gaze, Alexander looked in that direction.


    Alexander patted his son''s shoulder. "Why don''t you go and say hello?"


    Benjamin chuckled lightly. "With Mr. Zachary''s son apanying her, I''m afraid my seat will be taken!"


    Tyler, who was beaming with delight, paused upon hearing this, "You said Nics... Where is Nics?"


    Before Benjamin could answer, William approached Eleanor to greet them.


    Eleanor yed the innocent and called out to Alexander.


    Alexander didn''t like her much, but he politely responded, and then he engaged in a conversation with


    William. Eleanor, noticing Benjamin''s disregard for her, smiled lightly and said, "I saw Madelyn. I


    originally wanted to apologize to her, but I didn''t expect her to move on from her heartbreak and start


    dating a driver. She even brought him to the wedding!"


    A driver?


    Alexander looked at that table, and indeed, there was a spirited young man.


    But no matter how Alexander looked at it, he didn''t seem like a driver!


    Tyler was also curious and casually nced over, and then he couldn''t remain calm.


    The butterfly sitting among the women! Wasn''t that his precious son?! Haha... Look at his happy


    expression. Where was the slightest trace of destion?


    Tyler''s face immediately turned stern. "That''s my son!"


    Eleanor''s beautiful face froze!


    What... He was not a driver, but the sole heir of the billionaire tycoon Tyler?


    Alexander smiled. "So it''s Nics!"


    Benjamin slowly took a drag of his cigarette, with a meaningful tone. "Congrattions to Mr. Zachary


    for finding his son. It seems... Mr. Zachary won''t be lonely on his private jet to Esrand anymore."


    Tyler looked in their direction.


    He noticed the girl beside the little wolf cub. She seemedposed, and Nics treated her with


    respect and asional care... His son could actually take care of someone!


    Tyler had an idea!


    He stood up and walked straight to that table, gently cing his hand on his son''s shoulder, "Little


    rascal. Good for you!"


    Nics didn''t try to avoid it.


    He stood up and, in a showy manner, pulled Madelyn closer. "Dad, you''re here too!"


    Tyler couldn''t help but think about their rtionship. He chuckled. "New girlfriend?"


    Madelyn recognized the middle-aged man in front of her and immediately said, "I''m not... I..."


    The little wolf cub affectionately interjected, "Dad, she''s my boss! She took care of me, gave me food


    and drink when I was down and out on the streets, and even gave me a job. Now I''m living at her


    ce, not to mention how well she treats me!"


    Tyler looked at Madelyn again!


    She looked good and carried herself well!


    At that moment, he led his son back to the main table, bringing Madelyn along. Mr. Zachary was a


    shrewd man, and when his son leaned towards someone, he knew exactly where he was headed. It


    was obvious he wanted to attach himself to the girl.


    Mr. Zachary had a valid reason. "Ms. Green is Nics''s boss and deserves to sit with us!"


    In the presence of everyone, Madelyn joined the ranks of billionaires.


    Two chairs were added by the waitstaff, unfortunately right next to Benjamin. Of course, Madelyn


    wouldn''t sit with him and quietly took her ce next to Alexander.


    Seeing this, Benjamin raised an eyebrow teasingly, somewhat provoking.


    As the little wolf cub sat down, he lowered his voice. "Feeling jealous, Benjamin? You''ll have plenty to


    be jealous of from now on!"


    Benjamin smirked slightly!


    Tyler valued Madelyn highly, treating her with respect in his words. In the end, he directly handed his


    son over to Madelyn for guidance. Madelyn knew Tyler''s identity, so how could she dare to ept it?


    Tyler poured her a ss of cocktail, smiling affectionately. "I heard Ms. Green''s Music Center just


    started operating, and many aspects are still not on track. It''s not easy for a young girl to start a


    business. How about I invest 3 million in it? Consider it tuition for my wayward son."


    He was giving her way too much...


    Madelyn smiled slightly. "Thank you, Mr. Zachary!"


    She poured herself half a ss of red wine and raised it to toast Tyler. It was clearly a professional


    matter, but it made Tyler value her even more. He said to the little wolf cub, "Learn from Ms. Green!"


    The little wolf cub beamed and spoke eloquently!


    3 million. He would demand a shareter!


    Madelyn blinked: You won''t get a penny from me!


    In this exchange, Alexander, a shrewd and capable person, could immediately understand Tyler''s


    intentions. It was obvious that he wanted to pass his son off to Madelyn...


    He looked sympathetically at his son.


    Benjamin maintained his elegance, but deep down, he couldn''t help but feel a bit concerned.


    The little wolf cub shed him a smug smile and went to the restroom.


    When he came out, he found the woman from the Bet family standing at the door, her posture and


    expression clearly revealing her worldly experience... Nics smiled and zipped up his pants while


    standing at the sink. Eleanor, looking enchanting, smiled softly, "Mr. Zachary, do you know about


    Madelyn''s past?"


    Nics lit a cigarette and leaned against the opposite side, slowly taking a drag.


    Eleanor was about to move closer.


    Nics spoke, "Don''te any closer! If I were to grab a girl of your look, all I''d get is a bunch of


    unmarried ones. Married women should behave themselves and not sell themselves outside all the


    time. I''m even afraid of catching something!"


    Eleanor''s face turned pale.


    Nics exhaled a thick plume of smoke onto her face, "Get out of the way and stop blocking my path!"


    ...


    Madelyn and Vivian heard it outside the restroom.


    They immediately changed restrooms.


    Vivianughed and said, "That''s quite interesting. He''s quite fierce! But with his background, do you


    really want to keep him by your side?"


    Madelyn washed her hands slowly. "His father has given too much. He invested 3 million in my music


    studio. I''ll just consider it as raising a child!"


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Vivian was envious.


    Howe such a handsome and wealthy man didn''t fall into herp? Having a little wolf cub to drive


    her around, make Cam happy, and receive 3 million... She''d wake up from a dream with a smile!


    Envious, Vivian''s stomach began to react.


    She leaned over the sink and dry-heaved for a while. Madelyn quickly patted her back... As she


    continued to pat, a suspicion started to arise in Madelyn''s mind. Could it be that Vivian was pregnant?

 Chapter 193 I Love You! Cant Be More Certain!

    Chapter 193 I Love You! Can''t Be More Certain!


    Chapter 193 I Love You! Can''t Be More Certain!


    Vivian stood up straight and said slowly, "It''s just the food."


    Her words didn''tpletely reassure Madelyn. Madelyn was still doubting something.


    Just then, footsteps could be heard outside, followed by a familiar voice, "Vivian!"


    It was Jackson.


    Vivian''s body stiffened as she turned slowly to look at her former husband. She forced a smile and


    said, "I heard you had a son. Congrattions. When should we go to the local court so that you can


    register your precious son?"


    Jackson didn''t say a word.


    His dark eyes stared at Vivian. At that moment, she looked fragile and beautiful, awakening all his good


    memories.


    During their time in college, they were truly happy together.


    Trembling, Jackson took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, skillfully took one out, ced it


    between his lips, and lit it before finally looking up and saying, "Vivian, let''s start over!"


    ...


    Vivian''s voice trembled.


    She sighed lightly, "Jackson, are you kidding? How can we start over when we''ve reached this point?"


    After speaking, she felt a slight pain in her lower abdomen.


    Instinctively, she covered it.


    Jackson smoked his cigarette, his gaze fixed on her hand... He had guessed some things, but he


    pretended not to know. It wouldn''t benefit him to expose everything.


    He swallowed his anger!


    Choking on his voice, Jackson said, "I just want to reconcile with you. Pack your things and I''lle


    pick you up the next day."


    As a man, he felt that taking this step was difficult.


    But...


    But they were both at fault. He could forgive Vivian, and he believed that Vivian could forgive him too.


    Just as they were arguing, Grayson arrived.


    Grayson handed Vivian over to Madelyn, took off his coat himself, and sneered, "Jackson, you have a


    son now. Why are you here? Do you want to get beaten up?"


    Jackson was angry to see Grayson.


    This damn Grayson. He made a mess of his wife... made a mess of...


    The two men were irrational and were about to start fighting.


    A voice rang out, "Today is the Wyatt family''s wedding. Even if you''re jealous, you should consider the


    asion."


    As the voice fell, it turned out to be Benjamin who had arrived.


    Benjamin was perceptive. He looked at Vivian holding her stomach and then at Jackson''s impulsive


    expression, and he guessed what happened. However, he didn''t expose it.


    Grayson considered Bryson and let go, but his face looked ugly.


    Jackson took a step back, his gaze falling on Vivian''s face, and he spoke softly, "Elizabeth''s child is not


    mine."


    This news was like a bolt from the blue.


    In the past, people in this circle might haveughed and said that Jackson deserved it, but now... No


    one could find it funny, especially when Vivian''s face turned pale.


    She knew that Jackson didn''t want a divorce anymore.


    Jackson walked up to Vivian, his once handsome face now pale and flushed, and choked out, "Vivian, I


    was a jerk before, but I genuinely want to reconcile with you. I know you don''t like me... But even if I


    have to spend all my fortune, I won''t divorce you."


    Vivian pped him across the face.


    Jackson took the blow, his eyes red. "We had such a beautiful past, Vivian. I can''t let go!"


    After saying that, he left, looking lost and desperate like never before!


    Vivian cried uncontrobly.


    Madelyn gently embraced her.


    Grayson took Vivian''s hand from her and politely said, "Madelyn, you should go back first. I''ll take


    Vivian. We need to talk about something."


    Grayson supported Vivian as they left.


    Madelyn''s mind was in a mess. She felt like she had missed something, and when she came back to


    her senses, she realized that only she and Benjamin were left at the scene. He was leaning against the


    aisle, quietly smoking, his eyes deep.


    Madelyn didn''t want to be alone with him and turned around to leave.


    But an arm blocked her path.


    Benjamin''s voice was hoarse. "Do you really want to keep that little wolf dog by your side? I can give


    you as much investment as you want!"


    Madelyn calmly spoke, "Mr. rk, we have nothing to do with each other, and I have no reason to take


    your money. Move your hand. I want to go home."


    He didn''t move.


    Not only did he not move, but he also looked at her with a strange kind of gaze.


    Benjamin considered himself not a lustful man. He hadn''t had any women around him before Madelyn,


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    and he could live without them. But once he had Madelyn, cutting ties became difficult to bear.


    Under the crystal chandelier of the hotel, her delicate face was pale.


    Her waist was slender.


    He remembered the feeling of holding her body...


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apple rolled slightly as he suppressed his desire and said gently, "You''ve asked me


    twice... You asked if I love you, Madelyn. I can answer you now. I love you... Couldn''t be more certain."


    These cheesy words ofmitment and devotion were something he used to disdain and rarely even


    thought about.


    But he knew where her concernsy, that she felt he didn''t love her...


    He also knew that saying it out loud wouldn''t necessarily move her, but he just wanted her to know!


    Though he didn''t consider Nics a threat, Nics had still disrupted his ns. Originally, he had


    intended to slowly win her back.


    After Benjamin finished speaking, Madelyn''s eyes turned red.


    She had once hoped to hear that. But now, what meaning did they hold?


    Madelyn shook her head lightly, and without hesitation, she uttered a few words, "I don''t want to."


    She wanted to leave...


    Benjamin grabbed her hand. "Madelyn, I''m sorry for making you upset."


    "Let go!"


    Madelyn''s voice trembled slightly as she shook off his hand and hurriedly walked away... She had once


    loved him so much. They had once shared such passionate moments, but he had also inflicted deep


    wounds upon her.


    In front of Benjamin, she would always remain indifferent!


    ...


    Madelyn sat in the car, her eyes still red.


    Little wolf dog Nics was already in the car, and when he saw her like this in the rearview mirror, he


    immediately jumped up and eximed, "Damn! Did you meet Benjamin? Do you still like him?"


    "No!"


    Nics, whose face was usually full of smiles, suddenly turned cold. "You deny it so quickly. There


    must be something fishy, right? Hey..."


    Madelyn interrupted him softly, "Nics, you always joke around with me, but is your real target


    Benjamin?"


    The little wolf dog immediately became displeased.


    "Damn it! Don''t say such disgusting things. I don''t like men!"


    But then he said the truth, "He offended me in Esrand and made me look bad. I even gave him a big


    gift at the time, but he didn''t show any interest when he saw beautiful women. I really doubt if he likes


    women!"


    Madelyn leaned against the back seat.


    She listened absentmindedly, vaguely recalling something.


    Before the new year, Benjamin went on a business trip to Esrand and had a dispute with Tyler. Nics


    must be referring to that night!


    Madelyn also remembered that Benjamin had sent her a voice message that night.


    So it was that night...


    Nics continued muttering to himself, but Madelyn no longer paid attention...

 Chapter 194 Mr. Clark Taught You Golf?

    Chapter 194 Mr. rk Taught You Golf?


    Chapter 194 Mr. rk Taught You Golf?


    The car stopped in front of her apartment building.


    Nics shouted that he wanted to go upstairs and sleep here because he was too tired.


    Of course, Madelyn refused.


    She calmly said, "If you don''t want to sleep at my mom''s ce, then sleep on the street."


    The little wolf dog gritted his teeth in anger and brought up another matter, "I should get a share of that


    3 million, right? Don''t tell me you want to keep it all to yourself."


    Madelyn thought for a moment. "Mr. Zachary gave me 3 million to take care of you!"


    So she wouldn''t give him a single penny of that 3 million.


    Nics chuckled and jumped out of the car. He red at Madelyn. "You... You..."


    Madelyn ignored him and slowly went upstairs.


    Nics wanted to curse, but when he saw her straight figure, he suddenly couldn''t utter a word.


    She looked so sad...


    Damn it!


    He said she had feelings for Benjamin. They both liked each other, yet they pretended to be so noble. If


    he liked someone, he would just take them to bed and have sex with them over and over again all


    night!


    What conflict couldn''t be resolved?


    Nics got back in the car. He had originally nned to have some fun, but tonight his mind was filled


    with the image of that woman looking sad.


    Damn it!


    Such a buzzkill!


    He couldn''t even muster any interest...


    Madelyn returned to her apartment, and Snowy immediately crowded around her.


    It hadn''t seen Madelyn all day and was very clingy.


    Madelyn took it downstairs for a walk, and after about half an hour, she sat down on a bench, dialed


    Vivian''s number, feeling a vague uneasiness in her heart.


    Vivian answered after a while, her voice hoarse as if she had been crying.


    Madelyn spoke softly, "Let me apany you these days!"


    Vivian shook her head, "I''m fine. You focus on your own things. You finally did something, so don''t


    worry about my little problem. You do well. There''s a bit of my investment in it."


    Madelyn didn''t want to inquire further.


    She added, "If you need money, let me know."


    Although Grayson was wealthy, his rtionship with Vivian was still unofficial. Madelyn didn''t want


    Vivian topromise by asking Grayson for help. With her words, Vivian wanted to cry but pretended


    to be casua. "I''m fine, really. If there''s anything, I''ll definitely ask you."


    She quickly hung up the phone.


    In the cramped apartment, Grayson stood across from her.


    His face was suppressed, and his emotions were on the verge of exploding. He angrily asked Vivian,


    "This damn child is mine, so why do you get to decide not to keep it! Don''t I love you enough? I even


    took you to Bryson''s wedding. What''s going on in your mind? Are you nning to reconcile with


    Jackson and return as a couple?"


    Vivian''s face was full of tears.


    She cried and said, "How could I be with him!"


    Grayson kicked over a chair.


    He looked at her and said, "You''re just afraid of tarnishing my reputation, Vivian. I dare to share a bed


    with you without caring about my reputation. It''s Jackson who is wrong! What''s wrong with us being


    mutually attracted to each other? If it weren''t for his change of heart, we would have been able to get


    married long ago... You hesitate because you''re afraid I can''t marry you. Let me tell you. I will only


    marry you in this lifetime!"


    He added fiercely, "If you dare to get rid of the child, I''ll break your legs. You''ll never think of leaving my


    side again."


    Vivian cried even harder.


    Grayson wanted to say something else, but his eyes turned red, and he gently embraced the woman.


    "Don''t cry, I''m here for you even if the sky falls!


    "The child must be born. It exists because its father worked hard day and night for it. You can''t say no!"


    ...


    Vivian cried her heart out.


    One weekter.


    Nics walked into Madelyn''s office with his long legs swaying.


    Madelyn threw a stack of documents at him and said, "Take a look at this."


    Nics opened it,cking interest.


    His luck was good,ing from a distinguished background. In this lifetime, he was only interested in


    women and cars. He had no interest in business operations. If it weren''t for annoying Benjamin, he


    would have left long ago!


    Madelyn didn''t pay much attention to his attitude.


    She said calmly, "Our Music Center has a high-end customer base. I''m nning to set up a car


    exhibition in a designated area. I want you to be in charge of this project... Of course, we''re not well-


    known, and others may not be willing to coborate with us!"


    Nics threw the documents aside.


    Chewing gum, he muttered, "You had me sell coffee before, and now you want me to sell cars. Are you


    nning to have me sell myself in the future?"


    Madelyn said indifferently, "With your temper, can you even serve people?"


    The little wolf dog jumped up, wanting to show her right away.


    Madelyn ignored him.


    The little wolf dog said with a bit of resentment, "I''m telling you, you''re really boring! It''s been a week,


    and you''re still thinking about that Benjamin? Let me tell you, if you experience the taste of a young


    man like me, you''ll immediately forget about him... What''s so good about an old man? Who knows if he


    can still make you happy in bed!"


    Madelyn replied coldly, "Finish reading the documents. Tomorrow, I''ll take you to socialize! Can you


    y golf?"


    The little wolf dog swayed his long legs.


    Madelyn added, "If you can''t, learn immediately!"


    The little wolf dog said weakly, "Golf is a sport for old people. I''m still young!"


    ...


    The next day, Madelyn took Nics to the golf course.


    The person they met was Jameson Weston, the national distributor of BMW.


    He was a middle-aged man with no other hobbies except golf and drinking.


    Madelyn apanied him and yed golf with the little wolf dog. Jameson appreciated her, but he


    had doubts about the project. After all, he recognized the little wolf dog by Madelyn''s side. He was Mr.


    Zachary''s precious son from Esrand!


    Not very reliable!


    After swinging a club, Jameson smiled and said, "Ms. Green, you y golf quite well. Did someone


    skilled teach you?"


    Madelyn was slightly stunned.


    Benjamin had taught her golf, and he was good at it. She wasn''t stupid and had learned it well.


    When Jameson mentioned it, Madelyn smiled faintly and said, "Yes, but the tuition fee was quite high!"


    Jameson, being clever, didn''t inquire further.


    The negotiation was going well, but Madelyn could tell that Jameson wasn''t very interested. However,


    she believed there might still be opportunities for future cooperation.


    She booked a dinner at a business club for that evening.


    Jameson joined them at the dinner table and couldn''t help but talk a lot. He also enjoyed persuading


    others to drink.


    Madelyn drank a small bottle of red wine and felt ufortable, so she went to the restroom to wash


    her face.


    Nics stood behind her.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Impatiently, he said, "Jameson obviously has no intention. Why are you entertaining him? Besides...


    even if you could secure the deal, is it worth drinking like this for a little bit of money? A woman should


    behave like a woman. Stay at home and be a rich wife. Eat, drink coffee, and attend music concerts!"


    Madelyn wiped her face and said, "I don''t have your good fortune! By the way, why did youe over?


    Why aren''t you apanying Jameson?"


    "Apany him! He has no such intention!"


    The little wolf dog added, "Come with me instead. If you''re with me, you won''t have to endure this


    hardship!"


    Madelyn red at him and left.


    The little wolf dog followed, saying, "Damn it! You woman, you repay kindness with ingratitude!"

    Chapter 195 Madelyn, I Miss You!


    Chapter 195 Madelyn, I Miss You!


    As they left, a person walked out of the men''s restroom.


    It was none other than Benjamin.


    He silently looked at the water in the sink, feeling a pang of heartache.


    For an unrealized project, Madelyn had gotten herself drunk like this! In the past, she would never have


    worked so hard... Was it because she didn''t want to rely on anyone anymore after leaving him?


    Benjamin took out his phone and dialed Jameson''s number.


    "Jameson, it''s Benjamin!


    "Yeah, I just saw you... Instead of making an appointment, how about we meet by chance?"


    Half an hourter, Jameson arrived at another private room as invited.


    He was aware of Benjamin''s rtionship with Madelyn, so despite the project not working out today, he


    had remained polite.


    After they sat down, Benjamin went straight to the point.


    "Jameson, can you do me a favor regarding Madelyn''s project?"


    Jameson held his wine ss, finding it amusing.


    He chuckled. "Ben, you''ve never been impulsive in your actions. Why are you still holding onto the past


    and trying to intervene?... Since you brought it up, I''ll be honest with you. I think highly of Ms. Green.


    She has a good personality and ispetent in her work. But I have doubts about Mr. Zachary''s son.


    He''s too shy... I heard he often throws wild parties with a bunch of men and women."


    After he finished speaking, he persuaded Benjamin to drink.


    Benjamin drank.


    He downed a small ss of wine in one gulp, then smiled and said, "Mr. Zachary''s son may be more


    fun-loving, but he understands cars! He''s the champion of the F4 double season. He may not be


    suitable for other businesses, but Nics can handle this area. Moreover, I''ve looked into the customer


    base of that Music Center. It''s high-end, so it would be easy to target the mid to high-end car market."


    Jameson still had some hesitation.


    Benjamin smiled faintly, "In that case, Jameson, go ahead boldly. If there are any losses, I''ll take full


    responsibility. Additionally, I can also help with the legal matters of yourpany, without charging any


    fees."


    Now, Jameson felt relieved.


    He poured more wine for Benjamin and teased, "I''ll do you this favor, Ben. But on another note, Ben,


    you seem deeply in love! I never expected the Lord of Justice to be a sentimental person... Bro, does


    this mean your carefully crafted image is copsing?"


    Benjamin smiled wryly.


    He downed another ss of wine, giving Jameson respect.


    After finishing it, he looked at his empty ss and fell into deep thought. "I''ve hurt her feelings! Oh, and


    Jameson... Don''t tell her about this matter."


    Jameson smiled and persuaded him to drink more.


    Benjamin hadn''t drunk so much in a long time. He walked out, feeling uneasy, and leaned against the


    backseat of the car.


    The driver asked softly, "Where to, Mr. rk?"


    Benjamin closed his eyes slightly, his handsome face tinged with a faint blush. After thinking for a


    moment, he said, "To the apartment!"


    Half an hourter, the car stopped at the bottom of the apartment building.


    Benjamin opened the car door and got out, looking up towards the top floor.


    He had been living in another vi for the past half a year and rarely dared toe here. Whenever he


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    was here, he couldn''t sleep, or even if he did, he would dream of Madelyn looking sad.


    He went upstairs and opened the door.


    It was still the same, but everything had changed.


    The room was cold and empty, and the piano stood there, missing its original owner.


    Benjamin took off his coat and walked slowly towards it.


    He sat in front of the piano, lifted the lid, and gently yed the song Madelyn liked... He couldn''t help


    but remember that snowy night, Madelyn sitting in his arms, listening to him y the piano.


    They had been so good together. How could he have thought he didn''t love her?


    Only after losing her did he realize that he couldn''t live without her.


    Now Nics was by her side, and he was jealous. He could even see that Madelyn treated Nics like


    a little brother... Maybe it was because Madelyn had too few close rtives around her!


    In thete night of drunkenness, he yearned intensely.


    As the piano notes fell, he couldn''t help but call her number...


    She hung up, so he called again, repeatedly, until she couldn''t stand it and answered.


    Benjamin''s voice was soft and hoarse, "Madelyn, I miss you!"


    He didn''t wait for her response, didn''t wait for her rejection, and hung up the phone himself because he


    realized he was afraid of hearing her refuse, afraid of her saying...


    "Benjamin, we have no rtionship anymore!


    "Benjamin, we''re over!


    "Benjamin, stop this, it''s meaningless..."

 Chapter 196 I Just Want Her to Be Happy

    Chapter 196 I Just Want Her to Be Happy


    Chapter 196 I Just Want Her to Be Happy


    Madelyn received a call from Jameson, which came as a surprise.


    She thought there was no chance of cooperation with Jameson, so she was preparing to find another


    partner, but unexpectedly, the situation took a turn...


    Jameson readily agreed.


    Then they discussed the details of the contract, which was settled within a week.


    Madelyn owned six Music Centers, and of course, those ces dedicated to teaching piano couldn''t be


    changed. So she used the 3 million Tyler invested to rent storefronts and renovate them.


    All the Music Centers were equipped with exhibition halls.


    Nics had many car enthusiast friends, all young and dressed in suits and ties, appearing quite


    refined. They knew about cars and had connections. On the opening day, the cars sold like hotcakes!


    200 cars generated sales of 13 million.


    Madelyn personally called Jameson to inform him, and Jameson''s face was beaming.


    He spoke warmly, "I underestimated Ms. Green''s capabilities. No one has tapped into this market


    before, and Ms. Green was the first to seize the opportunity! In that case, so to celebrate, I''ll give you a


    little something extra!"


    Madelyn smiled faintly. "Thank you, Jameson. I''ll treat you to a meal another day."


    Jameson naturally epted. "Sounds good!"


    ...


    Madelyn hung up the phone.


    Nics, the little wolf dog, came over with a stack of orders. He was wearing a pitch-ck suit, his


    slender figure captivating, and he sat next to Madelyn,ining in a low voice, "They all want to


    devour me! You''ve turned this ce into the Dark Horse Club."


    As he spoke, he couldn''t help but act coquettishly and lean closer.


    Madelyn nced at him.


    The little wolf dog immediately sat up straight and dared not move. He was actually a little afraid of


    Madelyn. Madelyn took the orders from his hand and flipped through them gently, praising, "Well done!


    You should have earned tens of thousands inmissions today!"


    The little wolf dog''s eyes were filled with longing!


    He wanted her to reward him with something else!


    Little did Madelyn know what was going on in his mind. She carefully thought for a moment and said,


    "The poprity today may onlyst for a week! I want to establish a nning department to promote


    our exhibition halls! In addition... The lobbies of some high-end shopping malls are also an


    opportunity!"


    Nics eximed, "How much money do you want to earn, woman?"


    He didn''t want to deal with these troublesome matters. He just wanted to rest, have fun with his


    buddies, and drink some alcohol.


    Madelyn''s face darkened.


    She said expressionlessly, "If you don''t want to do it, I''ll call Mr. Zachary right away and exin it to


    him."


    "Fine, fine, fine!" Nics shouted.


    He nced at Madelyn again. She lowered her head to look at the ns, and her profile was soft and


    beautiful. Her hair color seemed different from others, and it wasn''t dyed...


    So beautiful!


    He must conquer her. After picking the fruits of victory, he would show off to Benjamin.


    Hmph!


    "I''m not someone to mess with!"


    ...


    Bravo Legal Firm.


    Benjamin sat in his office and just finished a video conference.


    Paisley came in.


    Benjamin looked up at her, took a sip of coffee, and asked softly, "Did you find out?"


    Paisley nodded and ced the documents she was holding in front of him. She said, "Ms. Green has


    done well in this project. She is nning to expand the market in Gredax and the surrounding shopping


    malls. She has been on business trips these days."


    Benjamin slowly went through the documents.


    He majored inw and minored in finance, so he naturally understood them.


    Soon, he noticed some issues, such as sustainability. Madelyn probably considered that too, which was


    why she wanted to explore other markets.


    "The scale is sorge..."


    Benjamin pondered for a moment. "Let the manager of the branche over. I have something to


    discuss with him!"


    Paisley guessed her boss''s intention. He wanted to ce the branch manager close to Ms. Green as a


    mole. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "If you''re helping Ms. Green, why don''t you let her


    know?"


    Benjamin smiled bitterly.


    He whispered, "Because she doesn''t want what I offer."


    Paisley didn''t dare to ask any further. She always felt that her boss was quite pitifultely... She also


    had a question: as Madelyn soared higher and higher, didn''t that mean they had even less chance?


    Benjamin understood her implication and smiled faintly.


    "I just want her to be happy!"


    He genuinely wanted to start over with her, so he would support her whether she wanted to have


    children or pursue her career. All he wanted was for her to smile at him...


    ...


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    With Benjamin secretly supporting her, Madelyn''s career was sessful.


    In a little over a month, Madelyn rose to fame in Gredax and appeared in several business interviews.


    The little wolf dog, Nics, also tagged along.


    They even coborated on a fashion magazine shoot titled "Rising Star of the Car Industry." In addition


    to the cover, there were more than ten beautiful inside photos, not too intimate but looked good


    together.


    Nics''s identity was exposed-he was the son of the richest man in the south.


    In the past, he didn''t have a good reputation, but now he managed to improve his image by riding on


    Madelyn''s coattails. Financial reports even called him a chip off the old block, showing his exceptional


    business acumen!


    Of course, this magazine was also ced on Benjamin''s desk.


    He looked at it for a long time.


    He knew how close Madelyn and Nics had be. She cared for Nics a lot and took him along


    on business trips to other cities...


    Paisley entered the room and saw his expression. She whispered, "Mr. rk, there''s a celebration


    banquet tomorrow night for Ms. Green. I managed to get an invitation. Will you be attending?"


    She gently ced down an invitation...


    Diamond Hotel.


    Madelyn''s celebration banquet was grand and spectacr.


    Nics, the little wolf dog, had his father Tyler, the richest man in the south, especially came over from


    Esrand. How could Alexander be outdone? He also brought his wife and daughter, of course, along


    with his disappointing son!


    In the lounge...


    Madelyn was about to go out when a waiter knocked on the door and entered. "Ms. Green, there''s a


    Mr. Bet who sent a gift. He said he''s waiting for you outside."


    He presented a beautifully wrapped box.


    Madelyn opened it and found the pink diamond she had sold before.


    It was her mother''s beloved possession.


    No matter how resentful she was towards William, she couldn''t reject it... But she also understood


    William''s intention. He simply wanted to use her mother''s past to seek her forgiveness.


    Madelyn met William in the lounge.


    He came alone, and when he saw Madelyn in a white dress, it was as if he saw Madeline from the


    past.


    William''s voice trembled. "Madelyn, forgive your father!"


    Madelyn remained calm.


    She politely said, "I searched for this ne for a long time. Thank you, Mr. Bet, for returning it


    to its rightful owner. To express my gratitude, please ept this..." She handed him a check for 300


    thousand, three times its market value.


    William''s face turned pale.


    That wasn''t what he wanted. What he wanted was a harmonious family with his own flesh and blood...


    Madelyn smiled lightly. "Mr. Bet is being too greedy. How could such good fortune fall upon your


    family? After all the harm you and your family caused me, you expect me to go back and fulfill my filial


    duty and bring warmth. But I''m not a heating pad!"


    William closed his eyes slightly. "Madelyn, whether you believe it or not, the one I loved the most was


    your mother!"


    Madelyn lowered her gaze.


    She didn''t want to hear these words, nor did she believe them.


    In the end, William didn''t take the check and left in a hurry...

 Chapter 197 I Want to See You

    Chapter 197 I Want to See You


    Chapter 197 I Want to See You


    After William left, Madelyn stayed alone for a long while.


    When she went to the banquet, she regained herposure.


    Nics went up to her and said, "Did that old mane to see you again just now? Did he ask you to


    provide for him after someone took away all his money?"


    Madelyn took a goblet of champagne and said, "Don''t gossip on such a formal asion."


    Nics snorted softly. "I care about you."


    Madelyn knew what was on his mind. He wanted to embarrass Benjamin. She wasn''t so blind as to


    think this yboy fancied her.


    However, she took three million dors from Tyler, so she had to perform her duty.


    Madelyn took Nics along when she greeted the guests. She was graceful, and the young man


    behaved decently without causing any trouble.


    Two wealthy men chatted happily in the distance.


    Tyler said with a broad smile, "Alexander, it is worth three million dors. Nics has changed


    Alexander echoed, "I see that our Madelyn has grown mature. When girls meet someone younger, their


    motherhood is brought out."


    After he spoke, he chuckled.


    Tyler''s face stiffened. "Your Madelyn?"


    Alexander said in surprise, "Tyler, don''t you know? Madelyn almost married Benjamin. They''re having a


    small fight and trying to reconcile now."


    Tyler''s heart sank.


    Madelyn was a nice girl. But would his son beat Benjamin? Benjamin was famous for his schemes in


    the legal business and never failed to get what he wanted.


    Tyler started to worry about his son.


    However, he was too proud to admit it, so he said with a feignedugh, "They will court the girls they


    like in their own ways."


    Alexander raised his goblet.


    Speak of the devil, Benjamin came.


    He came without being invited. His special and sensitive identity attracted much attention.


    When Madelyn turned around, she saw him.


    She was attired in a pure white dress.


    He was wearing a ck and white suit.


    They looked at each other at their best ages with their best countenances. At that moment, it seemed


    all the other people disappeared, and all the noises stopped.


    Benjamin went up to her slowly and said, "Congrattions!"


    Madelyn paused.


    Nics was annoyed, thinking she couldn''t forget about Benjamin.


    He nudged at her, and Madelyn came back to her senses.


    Benjamin suddenly chuckled softly.


    He knew Madelyn always loved his countenance, no matter what she had experienced or how much


    she hated him. The admiration in her eyes was evident.


    Benjamin handed her a gift.


    He said gently, "Madelyn, I won''t miss any of the important days from now on."


    Madelyn didn''t want to lose her temper in public.


    Moreover, many people were looking at them.


    She handed the gift to Nics and said lightly, "Mr. rk, you''ve ttered me. I don''t think you should


    say these words considering our rtionship. You''re a guest here. Have fun."


    After she spoke, Madelyn nodded at Benjamin slightly and went away to entertain the guests.


    She took Nics with her.


    Benjamin didn''t move his eyes away from her. He watched her entertain the guests and dance with


    them. asionally, she met his eyes, but she quickly turned away and chose not to see him.


    Madelyn behaved perfectly at the banquet.


    But only she knew that she was vulnerable and heartbroken.


    She got drunk...


    When it was over, Madelyn sshed cold water on her face in the bathroom.


    Nics leaned against the wall outside and yed games on his mobile phone. When he waited for


    her, he ridiculed her. "When Benjamin came, your eyes lit up. What''s so good about him? If he''s so


    good, why did you break up with him?"


    Madelyn came out of the bathroom.


    She said in an icy voice, "It''s none of your business."


    Nics snorted coldly and followed her. "Do you think I want to interfere with your business? You look


    like a coward. What, don''t you dare to fall in love again after being hurt? You''re only twenty-five, but


    you live like a nun. Don''t tell me that you n to live the rest of your life alone."


    Madelyn came to a halt.


    She froze...


    Nics!


    Only Nics saw her through. Yes, he was right. Madelyn didn''t dare to love anyone after being hurt by


    Benjamin. Back then, everyone thought she would fall for David, but she didn''t. She didn''t dare to love


    anyone.


    She was not as tough as she thought.


    Madelyn didn''t let Nics drive her home. She nned to take a taxi. When she went out of the


    building, she saw Benjamin.


    He leaned against the car, smoking a cigarette.


    He was dazzling in the neon lights, but she couldn''t afford to love him.


    Madelyn called for a taxi.


    When she was waiting, Benjamin stubbed out the cigarette and came over with a frown. "Where''s


    Nics? Why didn''t he give you a lift?"


    ...


    Madelyn put down her mobile phone.


    She stared at the musical fountain ahead and said softly, "Benjamin, can you spare me? The breakup


    of our rtionship might be like a tumble to you. It doesn''t hurt you seriously. But I''m only an ordinary


    person, and I can''t afford another disappointment. Therefore, no matter if you''re serious or not, I can''t


    afford it. I can''t afford to love a big shot like you!"


    Benjamin''s stretching hand froze in the air.


    Madelyn''s nose turned slightly red. "You treat marriage as a game and wear the engagement ring on


    your middle finger. You don''t love me, but you pretend that you adore me. If I marry you, perhaps I will


    find you don''t love me after three or five years. You might only adore me. You like my body and my


    "You say you love me? Why should I believe you?"


    "So, that''s it."


    ...


    A taxi pulled over in front of her, and Madelyn got in the car.


    Benjamin stood alone for a long time under the cover of the night.


    His heart sank slowly.


    He realized it was almost impossible to win back Madelyn and started to get anxious.


    ...


    Madelyn returned to her small apartment.


    She didn''t want to think of Benjamin again. She decided to push him out of her life and learn to ignore


    him.


    In the following week, Benjamin didn''t bother her or call her, nor did he park his car outside her


    apartment building.


    Madelyn thought both of them had moved on.


    On Saturday night, her doorbell rang when she just got home.


    Madelyn went to open the door.


    Grayson stood at the door with a haggard face.


    Madelyn closed the door and made him coffee, asking softly, "What''s wrong? Did anything happen to


    Vivian?"


    Grayson sat on the small sofa.


    He was not familiar with Madelyn. They used to be strangers, but they got closer because of Vivian and


    dined together a few times.


    Grayson held the cup and said softly, "Vivian is pregnant."


    Madelyn was surprised, but she had seen iting.


    Grayson gazed at her. He knew Madelyn managed to live a good life for a few days, but he was at his


    wit''s end, so he had to ask her for help. "Jackson doesn''t agree to divorce. Besides, Elizabeth''s child is


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    not his, so he has the upper hand in some aspects. If he doesn''t want to divorce, Vivian will be stuck


    with him."


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Grayson took out a cigarette. After getting permission from Madelyn, he lit the cigarette and took a


    deep puff.


    "Vivian can''t wait. She''s three months pregnant."


    He didn''t say anything else, but Madelyn knew what he meant.


    If Vivian couldn''t get a divorce, her reputation would be ruined, and Grayson would have difficulty


    exining it to his family. Their rtionship was not approved of by his family in the beginning.


    Madelyn went to the kitchen and poured more coffee for Grayson.


    She knew why Grayson came. Benjamin was a topwyer with powerful means and connections. If he


    intervened, the divorce would be easy.


    Madelyn said quietly, "Aren''t you a friend of his?"


    Grayson gave a bitter smile.


    He was a friend of Benjamin, but it had been difficult for him to meet thetter recently. Benjamin''s


    secretary kept saying that Benjamin went on a business trip or in a meeting...


    Grayson was smart.


    After he failed to meet Benjamin a few times, he guessed what Benjamin wanted. Benjamin wanted


    Madelyn to beg him.


    Grayson said hoarsely, "Vivian doesn''t know Ie to see you. She''d rather abort the baby than


    trouble you. I''m being selfish this time. Madelyn, I beg you!"


    Madelyn went back to the living room.


    Grayson''s eyes became slightly red. He looked extremely depressed, but he tried to pretend he was all


    right.


    Madelyn had seen Grayson in high spirits and had seen him flirting with women frivolously. This was


    the first time she had seen him in depression.


    She couldn''t help sighing in her trance. "Vivian has met her Mr. Right."


    Madelyn didn''t say anything. Grayson rose and knelt to her.


    "Grayson, get up!"


    Madelyn tried to help him up, but Grayson didn''t budge and said in a choked voice, "Madelyn, I will do


    anything to make Vivian give birth to the baby safely. I won''t hesitate even if you want all my properties.


    I''ll work hard to support my wife and child..."


    Madelyn pulled him up.


    She said softly, "Why do I need your properties? Don''t you have to bring up the baby?"


    Grayson looked at her with hopeful eyes.


    Madelyn forced a smile and said, "I''ll do that. I''ll beg him."


    Grayson wanted to say something.


    But Madelyn asked him to leave. "Take good care of Vivian. Don''t tell her you came to me tonight."


    Grayson left.


    Madelyn took a bottle of beer from the fridge and drank it slowly.


    The night wind was cold, and the beer was icy.


    When she woke up in the middle of the night, her face was streaked with tears.


    She sat on the balcony through the night. When she came back to her senses, the dazzling golden sun


    rose and shone on the city.


    Madelyn lowered her head and dialed Benjamin''s number quietly.


    "Benjamin, I want to see you."

    Chapter 198 Come Back to Me


    Chapter 198 Come Back to Me


    After Madelyn spoke, Benjamin was silent for a long while.


    They could hear the soft breathing of each other. Gradually, Benjamin''s breathing grew heavier.


    However, he said indifferently, "Okay."


    He asked her to meet him in a French restaurant in the evening, but Madelyn refused and said in a low


    voice, "Let''s have a talk in your office."


    Benjamin didn''t say a word. Evidently, he didn''t like the idea.


    As Madelyn was asking for his help, she gave in. "Okay."


    ...


    After hanging up the phone, Madelyn fell into deep thought.


    She was forced to get in touch with Benjamin. She was well aware that he wouldn''t help her if she


    didn''t give him anything. Perhaps he hadid the trap for her long ago.


    Benjamin was not someone she could beat...


    Disturbed with the prospect of meeting him in the evening, Madelyn was absent-minded the whole day.


    Nics came in with the financial statements in high spirits. He tossed the report at her desk and said,


    "That guy you newly recruited is amazing. Dominic ispetent, and his sry is not high. I didn''t


    know you have the potential of being a capitalist."


    Madelyn read the financial statements with an indifferent expression.


    Nics sat on her desk and looked at her carefully. "You''re not happy with the big profits? Why are you


    so difficult? Do youck love? Shall I satisfy you? I promise you will get addicted to me and forget


    about Benjamin right away."


    Madelyn closed the report and said, "One thousand dors will be deducted from your sry this


    month."


    Nics roared, "Why?"


    "You disturbed your boss."


    "Damn it. Many girls want me to disturb them, but I don''t bother to do that."


    ...


    Madelyn ignored him. She asked him for a cigarette and lit it, putting it on the table and staring at the


    burning cigarette.


    Nics knew something was disturbing her.


    "Why do you inhale secondhand smoke?"


    "What''s troubling you? Why not make love with me? You''ll forget about all your problems."


    ...


    Madelyn asked him to get out.


    Nics was angry and aggrieved. "I''m worried about you. Don''t be ungrateful."


    Madelyn looked at him calmly. "I heard that you went to a partyst night and stayed there until three


    o''clock in the morning. You were one hourte this morning. Nics, if you do this again, you don''t


    have to work here."


    Nics felt guilty.


    He did go to a partyst night, but she couldn''t me him. Since he came to Gredax, he lived like a


    monk. Moreover, he saw Madelyn''s cold face every day, and he was bored with his life.


    After partyingst night, he was energetic.


    Nics said hesitantly, "I''m not that into parties. There''s nothing new about parties."


    Madelyn didn''t want to interfere with his private life, as long as it didn''t affect his work.


    She didn''t ask Nic to drive her to the French restaurant in the evening.


    ...


    When Madelyn got out of the taxi, she saw Benjamin waiting for her at the gate.


    The lobby of the restaurant had a romantic touch.


    Benjamin was dressed formally.


    He was wearing a ck shirt and a grey tie under his ck tailored three-piece suits.


    He had a great figure with broad shoulders and a slender waist. Moreover, he looked elegant, and


    passersby couldn''t help ncing at him.


    Madelyn couldn''t help taking a deep look at him, but she soon restrained herself.


    Benjamin went up to him and said with brooding eyes, "Why didn''t you ask Nics to drive you here?


    I''ll pick you up if it''s not convenient for you next time."


    Madelyn wanted to say they wouldn''t meet again, but she remembered that she was asking for his


    help, so she checked herself from saying that.


    She forced a smile and said, "It''s convenient to take a taxi."


    Benjamin didn''t say anything else and led her into the restaurant.


    He had reserved the whole restaurant. He might want to have a quiet ce to talk, but that put


    pressure on Madelyn, who sat down and said softly, "You don''t have to do this."


    Benjamin didn''t care about the food and asked her to order.


    He held the aperitif and took a small sip, smiling slightly. "Madelyn, we have been together for so long,


    but we don''t seem to go on a date like this often. It''s nice here. Shall wee here more often?"


    Madelyn ordered two sets of dinners.


    She thanked the waiter and looked at Benjamin, who leaned against the chair and gazed at her.


    He was so handsome!


    He was more dazzling than the luxurious crystal chandelier.


    Madelyn took a sip of water and said with difficulty, "It''s about Grayson and Vivian. I''d like..."


    Benjamin put down the ss and rubbed it gently with his slender fingers as if he was caressing a


    woman, but he looked elegant and decent.


    He chuckled softly and said, "Let''s talk about business after dinner."


    Madelyn didn''t have any appetite, but she forced herself to eat a bit. She didn''t want to make him think


    that she hadn''t moved on. Although she asked for his help now, she had to disy her dignity.


    Benjamin looked more at ease than her. He asionally asked about her work and even mentioned


    Nics.


    However, he didn''t talk about the divorce of Vivian and Jackson.


    Half an hourter, Madelyn couldn''t stand it. She put down her knife and fork. "Mr. rk, we don''t


    "I know!"


    He looked at her with deep eyes and asked her softly, "What do you want to say?"


    What could she say?


    Benjamin picked up a ss of Digestif and said lightly, "Do you want me to help Vivian and Grayson?


    But Madelyn, you don''t know that Jackson hase to me and offered a high price to hire me with the


    case. It is worth almost one-third of his properties. I refused him, so I helped Vivian in some way."


    After he spoke, he started to sip the Digestif and size her up.


    Madelyn believed what he said.


    Benjamin took a neutral position and helped neither Jackson nor Vivian. He waited for her to beg him.


    What a scheming and cunning man!


    Madelyn was silent for a long time.


    Benjamin suddenly chuckled and said, "It''s strange. Grayson knocked Vivian up right after they got


    together. We did it many times, but why didn''t you get pregnant?"


    His words were out of ce at a high-end restaurant.


    Madelyn was annoyed.


    She stifled her anger and said, "Mr. rk, I''m serious."


    Benjamin raised his goblet quietly and smiled. "Ms. Green, to be honest, Ie to seduce you tonight.


    Aren''t you tempted?"

    Madelyn couldn''t help looking at him.


    He was indeed gorgeous.


    He took her breath away.


    Madelyn looked away awkwardly, but Benjamin suddenly got serious and said earnestly, "I don''t want


    to say this in such an atmosphere, but if you want my answer, I''ll tell you. Come back to me, and I''ll


    help Vivian get the divorce."


    Madelyn''s chest heaved up and down.


    She was prepared for it, but she lost herposure anyway. Her eyes turned red, and so did her


    delicate nose. The pink touch on her fair face made her look lovely.


    She rose from the chair and said expressionlessly, "Impossible."


    "Really?"


    Benjamin said indifferently, "What a pity."


    Her refusal didn''t ruffle him. Instead, he said gently, "Eat more food. You seem to have lost much


    weight."


    Madelyn closed her eyes slightly and said, "Benjamin, you''re a jerk."


    He calmly wiped his lips with a serviette and said softly, "Yeah, I''ll wait for you, Madelyn. I told you I


    came to seduce you tonight."

    Chapter 199 I Want to Share My Life with You


    Chapter 199 I Want to Share My Life with You


    Madelyn had never met such a shameless man before.


    She stormed out of the restaurant in anger.


    Benjamin didn''t chase her, but he seemed to have made an arrangement. When Madelyn went out, a


    shiny ck car pulled over at the gate, and the driver said to her respectfully, "Ms. Green, where are


    you going? Mr. rk asked me to give you a lift."


    Madelyn refused.


    She had a feeling that Benjamin had cast a and waited for her to get trapped.


    She didn''t want that!


    It was dark at night. Madelyn wandered alone on the street. The neon lights were beautiful, but she


    was not in the mood to admire them.


    She kept walking until she got to a park, where a Ferris wheel glowed with colorful lights and turned in


    the air. Children''s happyughter could now and then be heard. They were sweet and lovely.


    Madelyn paused.


    She looked at the children quietly, imagining that the child of Grayson and Vivian might go there to y


    in a few years. For those games that Vivian didn''t dare to y, Grayson would apany the child...


    The family of three should live happily together.


    Madelyn suddenly wanted to see Vivian.


    She bought some tonics and took a taxi to Vivian''s apartment. Grayson was not there.


    Madelyn entered the apartment and put down the gifts.


    She saw Vivian''s face was pale. She guessed Vivian didn''t have an appetite because she was in a bad


    mood.


    Madelyn sat on the small sofa and picked up a book on the side. It was a book on parenting. When


    Vivian came back with the coffee, she saw Madelyn reading the book. The atmosphere got subtle.


    Vivian put down the coffee and said in a shaky voice, "Madelyn, will you look down on me?"


    Madelyn patted the back of Vivian''s hand and said with feigned ease, "What are you talking about?


    Getting pregnant is a good thing. It takes many infertile couples a long time to have children. Since you


    have a baby, you should take good care of yourself. Your baby will be beautiful. Both Grayson and you


    are good-looking."


    Vivian''s eyes turned red.


    She hugged Madelyn quietly and said in a sobbed voice, "Madelyn, I''m frightened. I''m afraid that I can''t


    give happiness to the baby. It came at the wrong time. Grayson... Grayson almost fell out with his


    family because of this. I''m afraid that he will give up on me."


    Madelyn held Vivian quietly for a while.


    She began, "Grayson seems to love you very much, and he will love the baby. Vivian, give birth to the


    baby. Don''t mind about Jackson and Grayson. At the worst, I''ll help you raise the child."


    Vivian leaned against Madelyn''s shoulder and shed tears.


    She used not to be weak, but she had experienced too much during the past year and became


    sensitive and vulnerable.


    Madelyn didn''t tell Vivian that she went to beg Benjamin.


    Before she left, she gave Vivian a check for 300 thousand dors, saying it was the dividend from the


    musical center. Vivian knew that her investment was small, and she shouldn''t have so high a dividend,


    so she hesitated.


    Madelyn thrust the check into Vivian''s hand. "It''s the milk money for the baby."


    Vivian smiled and said, "I''ll ask the baby to call you Dad."


    Madelyn swore, "Damn you!" It was rare for her to be rude.


    ...


    When she left, Madelyn met Jackson outside the apartment building.


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    He didn''t intend to go up, so he sat in the car and smoked a cigarette. When he saw Madelyning


    out of the building, he quickly got out of the car."


    "Hi, Madelyn."


    After experiencing so much, Madelyn hated him, but she didn''t want to say hurting words to him, so


    she said softly, "Let go of Vivian. You know well that..."


    Jackson wore a wistful look. He took a deep puff on the cigarette and tossed it away, stubbing it with


    his foot.


    Following that, he looked at Madelyn.


    They had been on bad terms for a long time, but he said to her with exceptional politeness, "Madelyn,


    Vivian can be a bit tetchy but her bark is worse than her bite. She is not as independent as you, and


    she listens to you... I know I offended you a lot before, but please put in a few good words for me,


    considering my rtionship with Vivian over the years. If she is willing toe back to me, I will


    pretend nothing has happened and won''t mention it at all."


    Madelyn looked at his desperate face and felt pity for him.


    She said calmly, "Jackson, you''ve never loved Vivian. When you courted her, you messed with


    Elizabeth. Real love includes loyalty, but you''ve never had it."


    Jackson was taken aback.


    He said with red eyes, "Madelyn, I was wrong. Please pass on the message for me."


    Madelyn shook her head quietly. It was toote.


    Vivian couldn''t turn back even if she was not pregnant...


    Madelyn went back home.


    Grayson sent her a message and thanked her without asking for the result.


    But Madelyn knew that he was eager to know.


    Later on, she made an inquiry and found that Grayson argued with his family bitterly. His family said


    Vivian had to abort the baby if they wanted to be together. After Vivian got divorced, she could marry


    into the Jing family without any scandals.


    They imed that the couple would have more babies in the future.


    Madelyn leaned against the wall on the balcony and looked at the crescent moon. Yes, Grayson and


    Vivian were still young, and they would have more babies. But even if they gave birth to other babies,


    the one in Vivian''s belly would not be there.


    If they lost the baby, would they continue their rtionship?


    Madelyn was not an angel, but her heart ached when she thought of Vivian''s teary face.


    It waste at night...


    Madelyn dialed Benjamin''s mobile phone, but it was turned off. He returned her call at one o''clock in


    the morning and said hoarsely, "Madelyn, what''s the matter? I''m on a business trip in Vadiff, and I''ll


    He reported his itinerary carefully as if they didn''t quarrel the other day.


    Madelyn was silent for a good while before saying softly, "I want to talk about what you said the other


    day again."


    Benjamin chuckled softly, "Do you agree?"


    "No." Madelyn tried to be calm. "But I think there''s room for negotiation."


    Benjamin smiled delightfully.


    He had juste out of a formal banquet and was taking fresh air at the lobby of the hotel in an


    extremely good mood.


    "Let''s have dinner tomorrow night."


    "Let''s talk about it in yourw firm."


    "Madelyn, do you think it''s proper to talk about our future in the office?"


    ...


    Madelyn was annoyed.


    She gritted her white teeth and said, "Benjamin, I want to talk about Vivian."


    Benjamin fell silent and gripped his mobile phone quietly, waiting for her to give in.


    How could Madelyn rival him in patience?


    After a long while, she whispered, "Benjamin, even if it''s concerning us, I want to talk about it with you


    in thew firm. Otherwise, I won''t see you."


    Benjamin made apromise.


    He said with discretion, "Okay. I''m avable at ten tomorrow morning. You''ll have half an hour." After he


    spoke, he hung up the phone.


    Madelyn held the phone and stared at it nkly for a good while.


    ...


    The next day, Madelyn arrived at thew firm on time.


    Everyone in thew firm recognized her. After all, she nearly married Benjamin. Paisley was not there,


    and another secretary named Sasha ushered Madelyn into the office.


    "Ms. Green, this way, please. Mr. rk is waiting for you."


    The door was opened, and Madelyn saw Benjamin sitting behind his desk and talking on the phone. He


    wore a set of three-piece suits today, which ttered his broad shoulders, slender waist, and long legs.


    He looked elegant with a touch of zeal.


    Sasha blinked.


    She noticed that Benjamin paid more attention to his appearance recently. Although he was handsome


    in the past, he was not as shiny and gorgeous as now.


    After admiring Benjamin, Sasha went to make coffee.


    Benjamin gazed at Madelyn and said on the phone, "It''s up to you. I''m sorry, but a client of mine has


    just arrived."


    He hung up the phone and motioned for Madelyn to sit down.


    Madelyn sat on the leather armchair by the French window. There was a small coffee table in front of


    her, and there were a few photo frames, most of which were photos of Benjamin in court. She guessed


    he must be satisfied with those cases.


    Madelyn fixed her eyes on a photo frame.


    It was ced in the center of the table. It was a photo of her ying the piano in his apartment.


    She remembered he gave her the piano that cost millions after they had their first sex that day. She


    epted his affection shyly back then.


    In the end, his affection for her turned out to be meaningless.


    Madelyn turned away and didn''t want to look at it.


    Benjamin left the desk and sat on the sofa across from her. He followed her gaze and picked up the


    photo frame, saying softly, "You didn''t leave many photos behind. It took him half a day to choose this


    photo. We should take more photos in the future. After we took the wedding photos, I''ll put our photos


    here."


    Heughed. "All the female clients will know I''m married, and that will save me a lot of trouble."


    ...


    Madelyn said lightly, "There won''t be any wedding photos."


    Benjamin smiled, not angered by her. At this moment, Sasha came to serve the coffee and eased the


    tension.


    Benjamin gave her a few instructions.


    Sasha left with a smile and closed the door.


    Benjamin took a sip of coffee and put down the cup, gazing at Madelyn and saying softly, "Madelyn,


    you know what I want. I have fame, money, and power. Why should I help them? Unless youe


    back to me."


    After he spoke, he gazed at her intently.


    He had made love to her many times, and he was turned on even when she was only sitting across


    from him. Thinking that she might be his again, Benjamin felt excited.


    Madelyn noticed the desire in his eyes.


    He wanted to have her.


    She lowered her eyes and smiled faintly, saying in a trembling voice, "Benjamin, you want to sleep with


    me, don''t you? I''ll do that. How much do you charge?"


    Benjamin didn''t budge, gazing at her.


    After a good while, he said in an extremely hoarse voice, "Madelyn, do you think I''m that kind of man?


    Do you think I only want to sleep with you?"


    Madelyn turned pale.


    Benjamin gave a tender smile and said, "I want to share my life with you."

 Chapter 200 I Want It

    Chapter 200 I Want It


    Chapter 200 I Want It


    The air in the office seemed to freeze.


    Madelyn turned paler.


    After a long while, she said with difficulty, "Benjamin, do you know that I''d rather negotiate the deal with


    you? Thest thing we should do is talk about love, future, and marriage."


    She raised her head slightly and continued, "Who said that marriage was only a piece of waste paper?"


    Benjamin was taken aback.


    He said in a hoarse and gentle voice, "Madelyn, I''m sorry. I broke your heart."


    He took a paper tissue and handed it to her.


    Madelyn restrained herself and said in a low voice, "Benjamin, you want a chance, and I''ll give you


    one. One year... I''ll stay with you for one year. We''ll part in one year."


    Benjamin sat with his back turned to the window.


    He was in the shadows. When he heard what she said, he raised his eyebrow. "What if you love me


    and want to marry me in one year?"


    Madelyn didn''t answer.


    Benjamin got what she meant. She would put on guard against him and stop herself from falling for


    him.


    What she was willing to give during the year remained the same.


    Benjamin reclined on the sofa. He looked rxed, but he stiffened slightly. Good. He taught her in


    person. Now she was good at negotiating and fooling him.


    He was silent for a long time.


    Madelyn gazed at him and said in a tight voice, "Benjamin, do you want it or not?"


    ...


    "Yes!" Benjamin gave in.


    ...


    Madelyn was dazed.


    Benjamin rose and went to the back of her armchair, hugging her quietly and pressing his thin lips


    against her ear. "Madelyn, I want it... Don''t say you''re my sex partner. How can I do that to you? Our


    rtionship is perfectly above board. Please stop saying that."


    Benjamin was good at disying his charm and tenderness. When he wanted to deal with her, he


    would resort to these methods...


    Madelyn was well aware of it.


    She said calmly, "We won''t live together, nor will we see each other''s parents."


    "Okay."


    "But I can take you to my apartment at weekends asionally, can''t I? Lovers do that a lot."


    Madelyn didn''t object.


    In fact, she didn''t want Benjamin to go to her apartment.


    After making the deal, Madelyn turned to leave.


    Benjamin pressed her shoulders quietly and leaned to kiss her. He was standing, and Madelyn was


    sitting. It was not afortable posture for kissing, but he was turned on.


    Madelyn didn''t turn away, but she didn''t respond to his kiss.


    Seeing that she wouldn''t kiss him back, Benjamin chuckled softly. "It''s been only half a year, and you


    don''t know how to kiss? Madelyn, let me..."


    He gripped her chin with his slender fingers and gave a soft pinch.


    Madelyn involuntarily opened her mouth, and he stuck his tongue inside and invaded every inch of her


    mouth. It was a small kiss in the beginning, but it became passionate after they separated for half a


    year.


    Their hearts beat faster after the kiss.


    Benjamin leaned against her shoulder and panted heavily, saying in a hoarse voice, "Madelyn, you still


    have feelings for me."


    Madelyn was embarrassed.


    She buttoned her shirt with trembling hands.


    When they kissed passionately just now, Benjamin lost control and unbuttoned her shirt. After regaining


    herposure, Madelyn was bitterly embarrassed. In her desperation, she failed to button up. In the


    end, Benjamin helped her with the buttoning.


    He stooped to press his forehead against hers. "I don''t want you to go."


    Madelyn''s eyes got misty.


    Benjamin knew her body had feelings for him even though she was reluctant.


    Benjamin didn''t tease Madelyn like before. He straightened her clothes gently and said quietly, "I have


    work to doter. I''ll ask my driver to take you back to the music center."


    Madelyn couldn''t stand his gentleness.


    She rose and faced him, trying to stay calm. "I''ll take a taxi. Mr. rk, Vivian..."


    Benjamin gazed at her the way a man looked at a woman.


    He smiled and said, "Do you still call me Mr. rk?"


    Madelyn was embarrassed.


    Benjamin didn''t say anything else and made an internal call, asking Sasha toe. "Walk Ms. Green


    downstairs and hail a taxi for her."


    Sasha gave a sweet smile and said, "Ms. Green, this way, please."


    She was smart and could see the romance between Madelyn and Benjamin. She was very courteous


    to Madelyn, but she sensibly kept a tight lip.


    There was a car in front of thew firm.


    It was not a taxi but Madelyn''s beige BMW. When Madelyn came out of thew firm, Nics quickly


    got out of the car and red at her.


    There was murderous intent in his eyes.


    Sasha found him menacing. "Ms. Green, shall I call the security?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to embarrass herself, so she pretended nothing was wrong and said with a faint


    smile, "He''s my driver. Thank you very much. See you around."


    Sasha was smart and swift left.


    Madelyn nced at Nics, who stared at her with ferocious eyes. She opened the car door to get in


    the car, but Nics shook off her hand and banged the door shut.


    He gritted his teeth and asked, "Did you sleep with him?"


    The street was bustling with people.


    Madelyn said in a cold voice, "Do you want the whole world to know about this?"


    Nics had thrown all his cautions away. When he heard that Madelyn went to see Benjamin, he went


    mad. Damn it! He came to Gredax to disgust Benjamin. He hadn''t slept with Madelyn yet. How could


    she mess with Benjamin again?


    But...


    Apart from anger, something seemed to be surging in his chest.


    He didn''t know what that feeling was.


    Nics was so angry that he didn''t know what he was saying. "Why don''t you fancy me? Is it because


    Benjamin is more capable than me? Is it because he''s older? Or do you like pretentious elites like


    him?"


    Madelyn was angry.


    She was exhausted by the half an hour with Benjamin, and Nics'' question added fuel to the me.


    She said in a colder voice, "Leave me alone. Remember who you are."


    Nics was spoiled and wouldn''t listen to her.


    He red at her and kicked the car fiercely. "Do you like him? What''s so good about that kind of


    pretentious man? He''s not as good as me."


    Madelyn didn''t want to argue with him.


    At this moment, a taxi came over. Madelyn hailed the taxi and wanted to get in the car.


    Nics pulled at her. "Don''t go."


    Madelyn closed the car door and apologized to the taxi driver. Following that, she gazed at Nics and


    asked calmly, "Nics, why did youe to Gredax?"


    Under her scrutinizing gaze, Nicscked the courage to lie.


    Seeing that he cringed, Madelyn softened her tone. "Stop acting like a spoilt child. If you don''t like to


    work here, you''re free to go. If you stay, you have to remember one thing. I won''t allow you to interfere


    with my business."


    How young was Nics! He was only twenty-three, two years younger than her.


    Madelyn had long known about his ulterior motives, but she had never thought he was evil. Instead, he


    took good care of Cam. Although he had a sharp tongue, he had never bullied anyone in the music


    center.


    Madelyn treated him as a brother.


    There were not many people like him around her.


    After Madelyn spoke, she got in the car and reclined in the backseat, saying softly, "Take me back to


    my apartment. I don''t feel well."


    Nics struggled inwardly for a long time before getting into the car.


    After he got in the car, he asked aggressively, "Did you have sex with him or not?"


    "Yes!" Madelyn thought her answer would stop the farce.


    Indeed, Nics was silent for a long while. His young pride was hurt.


    He didn''t say anything else and directly drove Madelyn back to her apartment building.


    Madelyn didn''t get out of the car. She said, "There is a pharmacy nearby. Go buy some fever-reducing


    medicines for me."


    Nics was in a bad mood, so he couldn''t help ridiculing her. "What, he tortured you and didn''t want to


    buy you medicine? Now you have to buy the medicine by yourself. Why did you choose him?"


    Madelyn was not feeling well, or she would have kicked him hard.


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    Although Nicsined, he got out of the car to buy the medicine. After he came back, he


    opened the car door to ask Madelyn to get out of the car. To his surprise, she fell asleep.


    She reclined on the leather seat and slept quietly.


    Her long hair covered half of her face, and the other half was fair and beautiful. He found her facial


    features charming.


    Nics'' heartbeat quickened.


    He didn''t know what was wrong with him. He had intended to disgust Benjamin and left after he got


    Madelyn. Why couldn''t he move his eyes away from her now?


    This was the first time that Nics had felt helpless.


    He chose to flee.


    Thankfully, he tossed the medicine in the car and banged the door shut.


    Madelyn woke up with a start.


    When she saw Nics running away, she was speechless. She took the medicine and went back


    home.


    She caught a serious cold because she stayed in the night wind for too long. Before she went to sleep,


    she called the music center and gave the secretary a few instructions.

    Chapter 201 Mr. rk Has a Bad Time After the Breakup


    Chapter 201 Mr. rk Has a Bad Time After the Breakup


    When Madelyn woke up, she found it was already afternoon.


    The air conditioner in the apartment was set at a proper temperature and was not cold at all.


    Footsteps could be heard from the living room. But they were very subtle and she couldn''t hear them if


    she didn''t stay focused.


    Madelyn hurriedly sat up.


    Much to her surprise, theer was Benjamin''s secretary, Paisley, with a doctor behind her.


    Finding that Madelyn had woken up, Paisley said delightfully, "Hearing that you were sick, Mr. rk


    asked me to bring a doctor over to check on you. He has an important meeting today. Otherwise, he


    would havee by himself."


    Madelyn was still dizzy, but right at this moment, she felt embarrassed more.


    Paisley knew between than anyone about her rtionship with Benjamin. Moreover, she must have


    heard her moans when she and Benjamin made love in his apartment on New Year''s Eve.


    Madelyn ignored these.


    She replied in a husky voice, "Probably I caught a cold. It''s no big deal."


    Paisley replied smilingly, "But Mr. rk feels distressed for you."


    Madelyn felt more embarrassed.


    The doctor had remained silent during the whole process. He gave Madelyn a shot after examining her


    and then directly left.


    Only Madelyn and Paisley were left in the apartment.


    Paisley was a veteran in the workce who could ignore all the award vibes. She didn''t feel unease in


    such a situation at all. Instead, she put on an apron and smiled, "Don''t eat greasy food when you''re


    sick. Let me make some soup for you. I spotted artichoke in the refrigerator just now."


    Madelyn didn''t want to bother her.


    But Paisley gently pressed her down and said, "Mr. rk would worry about you if it were the other


    person toe over. It''s great that I can have half a day off today and that I can go to pick up my son


    earlier."


    Madelyn smiled.


    She knew that Paisley was Benjamin''s reliable subordinate and was very cautious with the organization


    of words.


    Paisley chatted with Madelyn casually when making the soup. What she asked was all about what


    happened to Madelyn after she broke up with Benjamin. In the end, she heaved a sigh softly and said,


    "Madelyn, Mr. rk had a bad time in the past half a year."


    She was aware of the conflicts between Madelyn and Benjamin and she also felt guilty for Madelyn.


    If she didn''t ask Madelyn to send the document to Benjamin that night, probably the two wouldn''t have


    broken up. However, as a woman, she was also happy that Madelyn had gone to the office that day.


    Otherwise, just like many couples, they wouldn''t be able to end happily...


    Paisley talked a lot.


    When Madelyn drank the soup, she said slowly, "You don''t have to me yourself. We broke up not


    because of any other people, not evenpletely because of Eleanor. At that time, we didn''t break up


    even if Eleanor cut her wrist again and again. We broke up because of the conflicts between us."


    If Benjamin wanted to get married, he would like other men of the upper ss.


    He would have a decent wife who would give birth to his heir.


    He was obsessed with her body and he could guarantee his loyalty when he still liked her body.


    However, when his sense of novelty died down, no one could be sure about it.


    She couldn''t be sure about it. Nor could he.


    However, what Madelyn wanted was a lover who would be loyal to her for the rest of his life.


    She had never loved a person so fearlessly with such a strong desire to stay with him. However, she


    thought she would not be like this anymore.


    But she lost all her courage after that p.


    Madelyn didn''t tell Paisley about these things.


    In fact, it was not about right or wrong. Nor was it about if she should forgive him. It was just that she


    didn''t love him anymore.


    Now they had reached a one-year agreement.


    She would ept it no matter how he would treat her, but she wouldn''t love him.


    ...


    Paisley left at half past four.


    At 8 p.m., Benjamin called Madelyn and thetter directly answered the call without any reluctance.


    Benjamin asked very gently from the other end of the lien, "Did you get better?"


    Madelyn answered with a grunt and said, "Thank you for asking Paisley over to take care of me."


    There was a short silence.


    Benjamin chuckled and asked, "Do you want me toe over? I just clocked out. I can go to buy


    something you like to eat. There''s a concert tonight, but it''s so unlucky that you''re sick and can''t go


    there to watch the concert. How about watching the live broadcasting at home with me?"


    Madelyn knew what he meant.


    He was trying to narrow the distance between them and got along with her like a pair of ordinary


    couples.


    However, she was not in the mood.


    But she couldn''t offend him for this reason. Therefore, she replied vaguely, "I feel ufortable and


    want to have some sleep. How about the weekend? I''ll apany you this weekend."


    Benjamin didn''t reply.


    Nor did Madelyn speak.


    There was a weird silence between the two. In the end, it was Benjamin who broke the silence, "Go to


    bed early if you feel ufortable."


    Madelyn nodded and ended the call.


    At the other end of the line, Benjamin who was sitting in a ck Maybach grasped his phone tightly.


    The streetlight shone on one of his cheeks, leaving the other cheek in the dark.


    He was now downstairs at Madelyn''s apartment!


    But she didn''t want him to go upstairs.


    Benjamin opened the car door and got out of the car. In his hand were two bags and in one of the bags


    were snacks that most girls favored.


    Of course, there was also a set of hygiene products in the other bag.


    And they were for him.


    Originally, he nned to stay in her apartment tonight to take care of her. But she didn''t want it.


    Benjamin was never a man who would swallow the bitter pill in silence. He would not hide it from her


    since he was already here. However, he also had his pride. Therefore, he directly hung the bags on her


    doorknob.


    ...


    The next morning...


    When Madelyn went out to walk Snowy, she saw two bags as soon as she opened the door. She


    guessed they must have been hung there by Benjamin. Therefore, she took the bags into the house


    and checked all the items in them.


    Snacks, razor, bathrobe, slippers, men''s underpants...


    Madelyn felt very speechless.N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    She put down the things, pretending as if she hadn''t spotted them and as if nothing had happened.


    She had reached a one-year agreement with him, but she didn''t prepare to allow him to prate her


    life. Nor would she allow him to use these things in her apartment!


    When she walked downstairs preparing to go to the Music Center, she found Nics didn''te to


    pick her up today.


    As she couldn''t drive by herself, she could only hail a taxi there. Luckily, Nics was in the Music


    Center.


    From today on, Nics was at a cold war with her.


    He refused to be her driver and seldom came to see her.


    Madelyn didn''t intend to force him either. She hired a new driver. However, she cared about his


    dynamics very much. When she learned that he didn''t y around and was working hard instead and


    heard from Cam that he went back home and went to bed early every day, she felt relieved.


    One day, Nics finally came to find her.


    But his attitude was still cold.


    Madelyn turned the pages of the report and asked in a nd voice, "Are you still going to work with


    emotions?"


    Nics'' gaze turned ferocious.


    He red at her ferociously as if he wished to stare a hole in her. This woman... This woman was too


    ungrateful!


    Madelyn asked him out after finishing reading the report.


    Nics turned around without hesitation. But as soon as he walked out, he couldn''t hold back anymore


    and smashed his fist against the wall. A small pill in his hand was then thrown to the ground and


    smashed by his feet.


    Madelyn walked out and stared at him quietly.


    Nics turned around stiffly, but he was still ring at her, with a hint of hurt in his eyes.


    Madelyn said in a peaceful voice, "Nics, you can''t get whatever you want. Moreover, have you ever


    thought of what will happen after you get my body? How will you deal with itter?"


    Nics'' back broke out in a cold sweat.


    She knew his n...


    Madelyn looked down at the small red pill and said in a soft voice, "Clean it up. Don''t let others see this.


    You may go back to Esrand if you feel unhappy to stay here."


    Nics'' body stiffened.


    He knew he should leave, but he thought if he did that, it would be an indication of his cowardice and


    would only prove that he was a total loser. And if Benjamin learned about this, he would probablyugh


    at him for three days consecutively!


    He protruded his neck and retorted, "I won''t leave. I must develop my career here and let you regret not


    having chosen me!"


    Madelyn knew that his anger had already been vented out.


    She said smilingly, "Based on your performance these days, 1,2000 of your bonuses will be deducted."


    Nics cursed in his heart.


    He knew it! This woman had a sharp tone and was very cruel! After staying with Benjamin, she also


    became a typical capitalist!


    He snorted and left.


    In the afternoon, Madelyn received a call from Tyler. Thetter told her that his son had be more


    thoughtful. "Nics said he would go back to work in the Zachary Group a yearter. Thank you,


    Madelyn!"


    Madelyn exchanged a few words with him.


    She didn''t refuse the benefits offered by Tyler. She would be a fool if she refused son. His dear son


    was so insane that he almost drugged him, so she must receive thepensation!


    Madelyn''s mood was greatly improved after solving this problem.


    However, it only sustained for a short while because shortly after that, she received a call from


    Benjamin. He said smilingly at the other end of the line, "I''lle to pick you upter. Shall we go to


    my vi? I live there now."

 Chapter 202 I Wont Touch You Without Your Permission

    Chapter 202 I Won''t Touch You Without Your Permission


    Chapter 202 I Won''t Touch You Without Your Permission


    Madelyn didn''t want to go to his ce.


    Nor did she want to have a candlelight dinner or flirt with him. That didn''t fit them.


    Clenching her phone, she fixed her gaze on her desk.


    In the end, she answered in a soft voice, "Okay. I will clock out half an hourter."


    Madelyn then ended the call.


    She withdrew several thick document folders and put them into her briefcase. Thinking that those were


    not enough, she put more document folders into her briefcase.


    When she walked out of the office building, she spotted Benjamin''s car.


    He often drove his ck Maybach these days.


    Seeing Madelyn, he got out of his car, walked to the side of the passenger seat, and opened the car


    door for her. He took a nce at the briefcase in her hand and said with a meaningful smile, "Are you


    going to work so hard during the weekend? Then you won''t be able to enjoy your private life."


    His tone was always sarcastic.


    Madelyn pretended as if she couldn''t sense his connotation. She got into the car, fastened the seatbelt,


    and then turned to look at him and replied, "I need to deal with many affairs recently. By the way, Vivian


    has divorced Jackson. Thank you."


    apparently, Benjamin didn''t want to talk about the divorced couple. With his eyes fixed on the road


    ahead, he said, "Let''s go to your apartment to pick up Snowy first. That puppy must have gotten


    bored."


    Madelyn didn''t object to it.


    He stopped the car downstairs her apartment and Madelyn went upstairs to bring Snowy down.


    Snowy barked at Benjamin when it got into the car.


    Benjamin didn''t want to get serious with a dog. He just teased, "Why does it always repulse me? It was


    me who took it back."


    Madelyn caressed Snowy''s head and replied, "Probably it''s because you have the same nature and


    gender."


    She curled up her lips when she finished the words.


    Benjamin looked at her meaningfully.


    Ever since their breakup, Madelyn hadn''t smiled like this before him for so long. For him, such a light


    smile of hers was as beautiful as the melting snow.


    He had the urge to kiss her.


    Madelyn sensed his emotions and her smile disappeared as she fixed her gaze on the road ahead.


    Benjamin smiled subtly and slightly stepped on the elerator, driving the car toward his vi.


    ...


    The vi he was now living in had a total area of 2,000 square meters and was located in the most


    prosperous region of the city. It could be called a luxurious house.


    After parking the car, Benjamin unfastened his seatbelt and said casually, "I don''t have regr servants


    in this vi. Servants from the rks'' mansion woulde to prepare dinner for me every day. It


    should be ready an hourter."


    Madelyn nodded.


    Benjamin got out of his car and held Snowy''s leash. "I''ll walk this dog to improve our rtionship. Go


    into the living room to wait for us."


    Madelyn nced at the vastwn of the vi.


    Snowy should be very happy.


    She walked into the living room and made use of this free period to process the documents. A servant


    came to serve her coffee. Madelyn recognized her - She was a maid of the rks'' mansion. She


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    thanked her in a soft voice, but she wasn''t too enthusiastic.


    It was July in summer and was hot with long hours of sunshine.


    Benjamin sweated all over after walking Snowy around thewn, but he still decided to bathe the dog


    first.


    Standing on the greenwn, the dog bared its teeth.


    It appeared to be enjoying it.


    Benjamin gently smacked its ass and let it y by itself. Then he walked into the main hall.


    Madelyn was sitting in the living room quietly and was dealing with her work.


    Feeling reluctant, Benjamin walked over despite his wetness. He leaned forward and gently bit her


    neck. His teeth rubbed against her skin as he remarked, "Ms. Green, you''re so busy."


    Madelyn looked up, only to meet his handsome face.


    Benjamin closed her document and said, "Have a rest."


    Before Madelyn could say anything, he had already begun to walk toward the second floor. He


    unbuttoned his shirt while shaking his wet hair. His casual behavior was truly sexy.


    Madelyn was apparently stunned.


    A courtyard with awn, a puppy, and a handsome husband... In the past, she had yearned for such a


    scene again and again. Now it was presented right before her, but she didn''t feel touched anymore.


    When Benjamin went downstairs after taking a shower, he saw Madelyn sipping a cup of coffee.


    She acted as if she had just changed the workce.


    But he didn''t try to correct her. After all, they hadn''t stayed together for a long time and she repulsed


    him very much. But even if she was very indifferent at usual times, they must sleep in the same bed at


    night. This was what he insisted.


    The nights of the weekend were very suitable for sex.


    However, both of them were focused on their work. Snowy had calmed down from its excitement, but


    Benjamin and Madelyn were still dealing with their work.


    One was working in the study and one was working in the living room.


    Benjamin only walked out of the study at midnight.


    It happened that Madelyn also prepared to take a shower and go to bed. When the door of the living


    room was pulled open and their eyes met, there seemed to be sparks in the air.


    After all, they once lived together...


    This scene reminded them of the intimate moments they once shared. Especially Benjamin... He


    wanted so much to hug her...


    When Madelyn turned around, he gently grasped her wrist.


    Her body turned a bit stiff.


    Benjamin hugged her from behind, lowered his head, and bit her tender neck. He hadn''t had sex for a


    long time and even his pants became oppressive and reserved.


    He flirted with her for a long while. Then he carried her in bridal style and put her on the ck


    bedsheet.


    He tried all means to pleasure her.


    However, when he was about to enter her, Benjamin spotted a drop of tears around the corner of her


    eye.


    She didn''t want to have sex with him!


    Supporting himself with one hand, Benjamin lowered his head to stare at her. He asked in a gentle


    voice, "Why are you crying?"


    Madelyn felt very embarrassed.


    She turned her head, her eyes wet.


    Benjamin gently wiped away her tears. His reason required him to release her, but he didn''t want to. He


    plunged his tongue into her mouth and kissed her for a long while...


    In the end, he finally reached his limit of endurance. He got out of bed and walked into the bathroom.


    When he came back, he hugged her from behind and coaxed, "I won''t do it without your permission."


    Madelyn didn''t reply. It seemed as if she had fallen asleep.


    But Benjamin knew she was still awake. It was just that she didn''t want to talk to him. She had changed


    a lot. She wouldn''t throw her temper at him now, but she would cold-shoulder him. She would just


    deliberately prevent having any connections with him.


    Benjamin didn''t force her. He slept with her in his arms the whole night.


    The next morning, Madelyn was woken up by the ringing of her phone.


    She was still in a daze as she had just woken up and fumbled for her phone for a long while. In the


    end, it was Benjamin who handed her the phone.


    Madelyn was still lying on the bed.


    But Benjamin had gotten up and was now putting on his clothes beside the bed.


    Noticing that she was in a daze, he asked smilingly, "It''s from Vivian. Aren''t you going to answer her


    call?"


    Madelyn hurriedly picked up her phone.


    Vivian called to invite Madelyn to attend her wedding ceremony. As it was her second marriage and


    she was now pregnant, it was inappropriate for her to have a grand wedding. Therefore, the Wyatt


    family prepared a low-key wedding banquet for her. They only invited some members of the family and


    some good friends of the bride and the bridegroom.


    Madelyn sat up and congratted Vivian.


    Vivian had no idea about the deal between Madelyn and Benjamin and told her the truth, "It''s just a


    simple meal. The main purpose is to announce our marriage."


    Madelyn couldn''t understand how Vivian felt now.


    Her anticipation for love must have been damaged after her failed marriage with Jackson.


    And Grayson and Vivian had to digest this slowly.


    Madelyn didn''t say anything else. She just told her she would attend her wedding banquet.


    When she ended the call, she found Benjamin staring at her with a necktie in his hand. It seemed like


    he was waiting for her to...


    Madelyn said in a soft voice, "I want to attend Vivian and Grayson''s wedding banquet."


    Benjamin pinched the end of the necktie. After a long while, he finally tied the necktie by himself and


    said as if nothing had happened, "Grayson also invited me. Do you mean that only one of us can


    attend the wedding banquet? Are you afraid that others will know about our rtionship?"


    Madelyn didn''t deny it.


    Benjamin suddenly drew out his necktie and stared at her. He said in a more indifferent voice, "No one


    will know about our rtionship if I don''t announce it."


    Then he turned around and went downstairs.

 Chapter 203 Madelyn, How Did We End Up Like This

    Chapter 203 Madelyn, How Did We End Up Like This


    Chapter 203 Madelyn, How Did We End Up Like This


    After a short while, there came the sound of the engine starting from the courtyard. It should be


    Benjamin driving out of the vi.


    Madelyn guessed that he was somehow angry.


    But she didn''t care.


    Now that he was not at home, she directly left with Snowy.


    None of them took the initiative to contact the other for the whole day.


    On Saturday evening, Madelyn attended Vivian and Grayson''s wedding ceremony.


    It was held in a five-star hotel and they only arranged four tables. Compared with Bryson''s wedding


    that was held not long ago, this wedding appeared to be inferior. Moreover, both Grayson and Vivian


    looked back.


    Madelyn expressed her best wishes.


    Vivian thanked her in a shaking voice and hugged her.


    Grayson exchanged a nce with Madelyn with his newly-wed wife in the middle of them.


    The emotions in his eyes wereplicated. As a man, he was well aware of what Madelyn had to


    sacrifice. He felt grateful yet at the same time guilty...


    Madelyn smiled lightly and casually at him.


    Grayson had always been a yboy.


    However, he thought he would owe Madelyn for the rest of his life. He couldn''t repay her favor...


    Madelyn exchanged a few words with them and then took her seat. She secretly nced around and


    found Benjamin was not present.


    She felt relieved in her heart.


    People attending the wedding banquet all hadplicated emotions. They looked not that delightful


    even when they toasted the bride and the bridegroom. However, Grayson had been holding Vivian''s


    hand during the whole process, which supported thetter to maintain her forced smile.


    When the banquet was over, Madelyn went to the washroom.


    When washing her hands, she suddenly remembered Grayson and Vivian''s ovepped hands. She


    thought Vivian would be happy. When she turned around and prepared to leave the hotel, Grayson''s


    voice sounded from behind. "Madelyn."


    Madelyn turned around.


    Grayson, who was in a business suit, was leaning against the wall of the corridor of the washroom and


    smoking a cigarette. Seeing Madelyn turn around, he stubbed out his cigarette and thanked her


    sincerely.


    Madelyn didn''t say anything else. She just said, "It''s not easy for you two to get to this point. Do treat


    her well."


    Grayson nodded.


    He couldn''t help but ask with concern, "How about you and him?"


    They all knew what he was referring to.


    Madelyn was apparently stunned. Then she forced a light smile and replied, "Just like that. Grayson,


    don''t be bothered by these trifles. You just got married and you two can take the chance to enjoy your


    honeymoon."


    Grayson feltplicated.


    He still wanted to say something else, but Vivian suddenly showed up. Standing at the other side of the


    corridor, she asked dumbly, "Grayson, what did you say just now?"


    Grayson was startled.


    He hurriedly walked to her tofort her, "I and Madelyn had a chitchat. That''s all."


    Vivian gently pushed him away.


    She heard Grayson bring about Benjamin.


    She was not a fool and she knew that someone more powerful than the Mason family must have


    helped her divorce Jackson so that she could marry Grayson. But she had never expected that person


    to be Benjamin!


    Her eyes turned red and her lips trembled as she fixed her gaze on Madelyn.


    Madelyn heaved a soft sigh.


    She said to Grayson, "Please give us some room. I want to talk with her alone."


    Grayson also thought it would be easier for the two women tomunicate, so he agreed without


    hesitation. Before leaving, he patted his newlywed wife''s shoulder and said gently, "No matter what,


    don''t let your mood hurt the child in your belly."


    Vivian was a short-tempered person in the past.


    But now, she didn''t fly into a temper because she knew that the survival of the child in her belly was


    probably exchanged by some of Madelyn''s sacrifices. She couldn''t describe how she felt now.


    At this moment, she just wanted to cry.


    Madelyn walked up to her, helped her smooth her wedding gown, and said, "You look so beautiful in


    this. You''re a bride now, so don''t cry. Vivian, I''m fine. I don''t n to get married, so I won''t feel sorry for


    my future husband."


    Vivian still shed tears.


    She thought there were no secrets between her and Madelyn. But she had never heard that Madelyn


    didn''t want to get married.


    She choked with sobs, "I don''t believe it."


    Madelyn hugged Vivian gently and said in a low voice, "I''d been in two rtionships, but all of them


    ended miserably. So, it''s not a bad choice to stay single."


    In fact, she had thought about it. She might go abroad if her career became stable a yearter.


    She wanted to apany Penelope.


    Or travel around the world with Cam.


    She could still lead a good life without love.


    Madelyn had thought it through long ago, but Vivian still felt sad for her. She looked up and wanted to


    say something, but she suddenly looked shocked.


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Benjamin was standing behind Madelyn with an indifferent expression. She wondered how long he had


    been standing there.


    Vivian stared at Benjamin and said in a soft voice, "Benjamin is here."


    Madelyn was dumbfounded.


    She slowly turned around and found Benjamin standing under the crystal light gracefully.


    The atmosphere became awkward...


    In the end, Benjamin broke the silence in a soft voice, saving both Madelyn and himself from the


    awkwardness, "Madelyn can''t drive. I''ll send her back."


    Vivian moved a bit.


    Grayson knew well about her temper and lowered his voice, "Let them solve it by themselves."


    Vivian''s stiff body finally slowly rxed.


    Madelyn smiled lightly at them and said, "Happy wedding!"


    Then she left with Benjamin.


    In the elevator, none of them spoke. Even on the way to sending her back, he didn''t talk to her.


    Half an hourter, the car stopped downstairs at Madelyn''s apartment.


    Madelyn felt her neck a bit stiff and slowly turned it. She spoke, "I''m getting off."


    Then there came a clicking sound.


    Benjamin locked the car!


    Madelyn gradually loosened her grip on the doorknob, leaned back in the chair, and spoke in a husky


    voice, "Benjamin..."


    Benjamin turned to stare at her.


    Madelyn was still good-looking. Every aspect of her fitted her taste for women.


    She had a fair face with delicate features. And her dark brown looked very soft.


    He wanted so much to possess her. Not only fucking her but also winning her heart and letting her


    spend the rest of her life with her.


    But Madelyn said she didn''t want to get married!


    Benjamin had never experienced such kind of pain. He felt great pain in his heart, but he couldn''t vent


    it out. He could at most me himself for the suffering.


    He stared at her, his Adam''s apple bobbing up and down.


    In the end, he took out a pack of cigarettes from the cab. It was unopened. He skillfully unpackaged


    it, withdrew a cigarette, and lit it.


    When the smoke filled his chest, the pain brought by it magically alleviated the pain in his heart.


    Benjamin felt a bit addicted to it.


    As he smoked in the car with all windows locked, soon the car was filled with choking smoke.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but shout at him, "Benjamin!"


    Then her lips were caught by his.


    They had kissed numerous times, but this was the fieriest one. Benjamin acted like a nightmare that


    mored to devour her.


    Madelyn felt it hard to swallow or breathe.


    Her mouth was filled with Benjamin''s breaths.


    She thought she would be choked and die.


    But Benjamin suddenly stopped, pulled her into his arms, and rested his forehead on hers. He slowly


    closed his eyes and said with a hint of pain in his voice, "Madelyn, how would we end up like this?"


    Madelyn didn''t know how to answer this question.


    Benjamin didn''t force her. He only hugged her and panted slightly.


    Knowing that he must be very painful, Madelyn said in a low voice, "Benjamin, I don''t hate you at all.


    On the contrary, I feel grateful to you for some favors. But gratitude and love are different. I don''t want


    to force myself anymore."


    Benjamin listened to her silently.


    In a trance, he thought to himself, "She''sforting me, but her words bring more pain to my heart!"


    When the atmosphere became more tense, Benjamin''s phone rang. It was Alexander calling.


    Alexander said in a tense voice, "Ben,e to the eastern suburbs as soonest as you can. Your


    grandmother is dying. This will probably be yourst meeting."

    Chapter 204 Rest Assured. I''m Still Pursuing Her


    Chapter 204 Rest Assured. I''m Still Pursuing Her


    Benjamin clenched his phone and replied with a nod, "I''ll arrive soon."


    Then he put down his phone and stared at Madelyn.


    Madelyn also heard the conversation. She said in a soft voice, "Hurry up to go back. And be careful


    when you drive."


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apple bobbed.


    In fact, he wanted her to go back with him so that his grandmother could have a look at her. However,


    with their current rtionship, Madelyn might not be willing to go with him. Even if she did, it was not


    out of sincerity.


    After contemting for a while, Benjamin said in a low voice, "I may be busy in the next few days."


    Madelyn didn''t cold-shoulder him like she did before. She nodded in reply.


    When she got out of the car, Benjamin suddenly winded down the window and called, "Madelyn..."


    Standing in the night, she waved at him and urged, "Hurry up to go back."


    Benjamin slowly stepped on the elerator with his eyes still fixed on her.


    It took him two hours to drive to the eastern suburbs. His grandmother, Valentina Cameron, had been


    living in this mansion because the air here was fresh and it was a good ce for recuperation.


    Probably tonight was the limit of her life and Valentina began to talk nonsense since dusk.


    The nurse hurriedly called them. Alexander came over to check on his mother and concluded that she


    was dying. Therefore, he hurriedly called her off-springs and asked them toe to the mansion to


    see Valentina for thest time.


    Alexander was Valentina''s eldest son and Benjamin was her most outstanding grandchild. She favored


    Benjamin the most.


    Valentina was holding herst breath because she was waiting for her dear grandson.


    Benjamin rushed to Valentina''s bedroom after parking his car. Other members of the rk family


    stepped aside to make way for him and Alexander whispered into his mother''s ear thoughtfully and


    softly, "Mom, Ben goes back to see you."


    Valentina was on her deathbed.


    But she slowly opened her eyes when she heard the footsteps. At that moment, the wrinkles on her


    face seemed to unfold.


    Her eyes looked extremely bright and clear.


    Alexander knew it was the brief revival before the end of her life. She had held up for so long as she


    was waiting for her dear grandson to go back so that she could tell herst words to him.


    As expected, Valentina sat up.


    Benjamin strode to the bed and squatted before her. He held up her skinny hand, lowered his head,


    and nted a kiss on it.


    Valentina reached out to stroke his hair.


    She favored Benjamin very much. He was good-looking and had been smarter than his peers since


    childhood. There was one thing that she was not dissatisfied with he refused to get married, so she


    couldn''t have a grand-grandson.


    Valentina slowly spoke with a clear mind, "I heard from your mother during the New Year that found a


    girlfriend who should be the best match for you, ording to the fortune-teller. And she said you would


    take her back to visit me. Ben, why didn''t you take her back and let me have a look?"


    Benjamin looked up at her silver hair with gentleness.


    He replied with a light smile, "She was working overtime, so I didn''t ask her toe with me."


    Valentina retorted with a serious expression, "You''re coaxing me again. I know your temper. You must


    have angered her."


    Benjamin was still smiling. He replied with a grunt and continued, "Yep. I''ve angered her and now I''m


    trying to get her back. Grandma, I''ll take her back to visit you the other day. At that time, you must put


    in some good words for me."


    Valentina heaved a sigh and said, "It''s great."


    Then she asked what kind of person the girl was.


    Fearing that she couldn''t hear him clearly, Benjamin leaned forward and whispered into her ear in a


    very gentle voice, "She''s a very beautiful girl. She''s very obedient at usual times, but it''s hard to coax


    her when she''s angry."


    Valentina listened to him concentratedly.


    She was on her deathbed and felt somehow regretful. She mumbled, "I wish so much to see her by


    myself."


    The women in the house burst into tears.


    Valentina was a very kind-hearted person and they didn''t want her to die. However, everyone was clear


    that this was theirst meeting.


    Benjamin caressed her hair with one hand.


    He took out his phone with the other hand and asked in a low voice, "How about this? I''ll let her talk to


    you. Grandma, you will know that I didn''t lie to you if she talks to you, right?"


    Valentina''s eyes lit up.


    Benjamin dialed Madelyn and there came the ringing tones.


    In the end, Madelyn finally answered the call.


    Benjamin said in a husky voice, "My grandmother wants to talk to you."


    Madelyn guessed what he wanted - He wanted his grandmother to leave this world with peace. She


    grumbled in agreement after several seconds of silence.


    Benjamin put the phone near Valentina''s ear.


    At the other end of the line, Madelyn clenched her phone and listened to Valentina as she asked her to


    show some tolerance to her grandson. This reminded her of her regret of not being able to see her


    father before his death.


    What kind of regret did her father have when he left this world?


    Madelyn felt sad in her heart. She didn''t want to see this old woman leave with regret and she thought


    that even if it was a lie, it wouldfort her who was now having thest moment of her life.


    Madelyn said in a very soft voice, "I will. Please rest assured, Madame rk."


    Hearing Madelyn''s words, Valentina curled up her lips and her pupils began to dte. However, she


    didn''t put down the phone.


    Holding her phone, Madelyn could feel that her life was slipping away.


    She could also feel Benjamin''s sadness.


    ...


    When they met again, it was already half a monthter.


    Madelyn knew that after dealing with his grandmother''s funeral, he flew to Monatiz and showed up on


    the first court trial of Eleanor''s divorce case with her ex-husband.


    Madelyn didn''t know about the details.


    She had suppressed her feelings for Benjamin, so of course, she wouldn''t care about Eleanor''s life.


    Benjamin called her when he returned to the country, "Let''s meet."


    Madelyn was in her apartment and Benjamin wanted toe over. But Madelyn didn''t agree to it. She


    said in a soft voice, "Let''s go to your ce."


    It was already dusk when Benjamin arrived here.


    The ceaseless chirps of cicadas on the tree made the dusk livelier.


    When Madelyn came downstairs, she saw Benjamin leaning against his car. Spotting her, he opened


    the car door for her and asked in a soft voice, "Where''s Snowy?"


    Madelyn sat in the car and replied naturally, "I sent it to my mother''s house."


    Benjamin stared at her.


    He hadn''t seen her for a month, so his gaze was somehow tinged with sexual desire. Madelyn looked


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    down to avoid his gaze.


    He chuckled and closed the door.


    He sat down beside her and fastened his seatbelt absent-mindedly. After a long while, he finally


    couldn''t hold back anymore and asked, "Why don''t you ask me?"

 Chapter 205 Call Me Ben

    Chapter 205 Call Me Ben


    Chapter 205 Call Me Ben


    Madelyn slightly curled up her lips and replied with a question, "What do you want me to ask about?"


    Her tone sounded somehow teasing when she asked this.


    Benjamin fixed his eyes on her smile. He was gradually lost at it as she seldom smiled before him.


    Not to mention this was a very rxing smile!


    He didn''t probe into this question and just leaned back in the chair and tilted his head to look at her. He


    exined in a husky voice, "I took over her case before. I didn''te to see her this time."


    Madelyn replied with a grunt.


    Benjamin was still staring at her as if he was waiting for something. However, he didn''t get anything.


    He couldn''t tell how he expected her to react.


    To get jealous? Or to quarrel with him?


    It seemed like either reaction would be better than showing no interest in this.


    Benjamin was in a bad mood again. He got upset not only because of his grandmother''s death but also


    because of Madelyn''s indifference. But he told himself inwardly


    "As a man, you must be patient!"


    He wanted to start a new rtionship with her, so naturally, he was more thoughtful than before.


    The master bedroom of the vi was equipped with a dependent cloakroom for Madelyn. And Benjamin


    also prepared some clothes for changing for her, all of which were from some niche brands that she


    favored. Some of the clothes were even the same as those in her wardrobe.


    As she liked to work at home, he also arranged a study for her.


    Madelyn could feel her thoughtfulness.


    Although she didn''t reply to it, she was willing to stay peacefully with him. Therefore, when he was in a


    bad mood, she would somehow show him more tolerance. For example, she made a concession when


    he insisted on taking her to the audio-visual room to watch a movie after dinner.


    Madelyn closed her document.


    When she stood up, Benjamin naturally grasped her hand. The gentle touch seemed to be more


    intoxicating than all of the memories of their intimate moments.


    In Madelyn''s memory, he seldom acted so gently.


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    He preferred to vent his desire in bed.


    Madelyn was dumbfounded.


    She couldn''t help but look up at him. Benjamin slightly pulled her over and gently held her shoulder,


    saying, "I yed a horror movie and closed the lights. You will be scaredter."


    Madelyn replied with a smile, "Really? Is it so horrifying?"


    Benjamin loved to see her smiling.


    He stopped in his track, gently brushed her tender cheek, and said in a husky voice, "You look so


    beautiful when you smile."


    Madelyn replied with unease, "Aren''t we going to watch a movie?"


    Benjamin smiled and held her hand again, leading her downstairs.


    Although it was just a household audio-visual room, it was a big one with an area of about 100 square


    meters. Before the curved giant screen was a set of reclining sofas.


    With the dim light, he led her to the sofas.


    What he yed was a ssical old movie. Although it was tagged as a horror movie, it was in fact a


    romance movie in a horror movie''s clothing.


    Benjamin enjoyed the movie very much,


    Madelyn tilted her head to look at him.


    It was dark in the room and they couldn''t see each other clearly. But Benjamin sensed it as soon as


    Madelyn turned her head.


    "What''s the matter?"


    He held her shoulder and gently caressed her index finger.


    Madelyn became stiff all over because of this action.


    He chuckled in the dark and asked, "Are you scared?"


    Madelyn quickly denied, "Nah."


    Benjamin chuckled again and gently pulled her into his arms. He touched her cheek and asked, "Is the


    movie interesting for you?"


    "Not bad."


    Benjamin didn''t raise any other questions. He lowered his head and began to kiss her.


    Madelyn was a bit stunned. She slightly tightened her hands that were grasping his arms, but in the


    end, she still didn''t push him away.


    The movie happened to be ying the flirting scene between the female and male leads and moans


    could be heard from time to time. It was a perfect vibe and Benjamin was very lustful. He whispered


    into her ear, "May I?"


    Madelyn rested her head on his shoulder.


    Her expression was way too calm under the dim light, but she didn''t want Benjamin to see it.


    She replied in a low voice, "Not in this ce."


    Benjamin stuck his fingers into her hair and stroked her long hair gently.


    He was very clear about if she was turned on or not.


    He blurted out, "You don''t like this ce? Really? It''s very dark here and I think you''ll like it. After all, we


    can''t see each other."


    The air seemed to freeze.


    Benjamin thought to himself, "Maybe we should give each other some more time. After all, what I want


    is the rest of her life."


    However, she was always indifferent to her, which inevitably made him agitated.


    Everything happened so naturally.


    Madelyn didn''t refuse him anymore, but nor did she respond to his passion. She would only moan


    softly when he sometimes gave her excessive pleasure.


    But the subtle moans seemed to give Benjamin a shot of excitement.


    He lost his self-control.


    After the sex in the audio-visual room, he carried her back into the master bedroom, wanting to see her


    face under the lights.


    Madelyn hooked his neck and said, "Benjamin, turn off the lights."


    But he still appreciated her under the lights.


    Her skin was ivory and every inch of her body was perfect. The tiny blue vein at the end of her eyebrow


    was alluring him to kiss it again and again. nting a kiss on it again, he said lustfully, "Call me Ben."


    Madelyn looked into his eyes.


    She inevitably remembered that she once called him "Ben" during their passionate sex before their


    breakup. They had been in love for so long, but she had only called him "Ben" once.


    But this time, she didn''t want to call him so intimately.


    Ben... It was too intimate.


    Madelyn remained silent for a long while.


    It was so long that their sweat turned cold and a hint of disappointment shed across his eyes.


    Madelyn reached out to caress his eyebrows and moved her red lips, saying, "Benjamin, isn''t this good


    for us?"


    They wouldn''t quarrel because she didn''t have hope in him.


    Just like this time, although she knew that he had gone abroad, she didn''t feel sad at all. She didn''t


    care if he hade to see nor or talk about the past with her.


    After those sufferings, Madelyn just wanted to love herself for the rest of her life.


    In the end, they didn''t continue to have sex.


    Benjamin was not satisfied with such a rtionship. He desperately wanted Madelyn to respond to him.


    At least he should know that she still cared about him. That he still had a position in her heart.


    Madelyn gave him kindness, but she didn''t give him a chance for redemption.


    He got down off her, turned to a side, and panted lowly.


    Madelyn knew he was unhappy, but she didn''t want tofort him with gentleness.


    She got out of bed and walked into the bathroom for a shower.


    But Benjamin went in when she was showering. In the mist, he fixed his gaze on her meaningfully.


    Madelyn was very willing to talk with him.


    She wrapped her body in a bath towel and said in a low voice, "Benjamin, you''re not only a sessful


    Look, you''ve been wanting me and now I''m right before you. But you''re not happy at all... Benjamin, if


    our rtionship makes you feel ufortable or unhappy, why don''t you end it?"


    She didn''t want to deceive him.


    At least so far, she didn''t n to spend the rest of her life with him.


    But she hadn''t thought of retaliating against him either.


    They should have a decent separation.


    Madelyn looked at him with a smile and said in a soft voice, "Benjamin, I can''t give you what you want."


    He once said this to her, and now she returned his words to him.


    Her voice was so soft but the words she said hit his heart like a hammer, bringing her great pain,


    Benjamin slowly closed his eyes.


    He said in a low, husky voice, "Madelyn, since you''re still willing to tell me this, it means you still care


    about me."


    Madelyn didn''t reply because she was also in pain now.

 Chapter 206 Madelyn, Dont Be So Indifferent to Me

    Chapter 206 Madelyn, Don''t Be So Indifferent to Me


    Chapter 206 Madelyn, Don''t Be So Indifferent to Me


    They lived together for another half a month.


    Although it was peaceful, there was no progress in their rtionship.


    When Benjamin wanted a date, Madelyn seldom denied it. Although she was very cooperative and


    gentle, she was very indifferent to him. Unlike in the past, she didn''t throw a temper tantrum at him


    anymore.


    However, Benjamin was getting more and more dissatisfied with her calmness.


    He would rather she lose her temper with him!


    It would be Okay even if she pped her. In the past, wasn''t she always confrontational with him?


    Only now did he understand that she would inevitably act coquettishly and even use physical force


    against him when she loved him.


    But now, when she no longer loved him, she treated him very politely and avoided offending him. She


    was ready to leave with dignity at any time!


    Fucking dignity.


    Benjamin got drunk at the club.


    As usual, people in his circle were in the private room. Even Daniel was here.


    Grayson seldom went out for fun after getting married, but he came upon hearing that Benjamin was


    also here. After all, Benjamin and Madelyn were benefactors to him and Vivian.


    Grayson patted his shoulder and asked, "How are you? If you don''t feel well, I''ll send you back."


    Leaning against the sofa, Benjamin smoked out slowly with his chin raised, looking quite seductive.


    Young girls in the private room all stole nces at Benjamin, but none of them dared toe forward


    to ost him because Benjamin was known for disliking interacting with people.


    They could only appreciate him from a distance.


    Grayson guessed what was bothering Benjamin and said with a smile, "Who will be able to resist your


    handsomeness?"


    "Cut the crap!"


    Benjamin looked askance at him and spoke dejectedly, "Isn''t Madelyn the one? Grayson, tell me why. I


    love her wholeheartedly, but why is she still indifferent to me? In the past, she loved me very much and


    would blush even by looking at me. And she also enjoyed doing that thing with me at that time."


    Grayson chuckled awkwardly.


    Well, women were different from men. When she loved a man very much, of course, she loved to have


    sex with him. However, when she didn''t love him, she was unwilling to do that thing.


    But he didn''t dare to stimte Benjamin and just persuaded him to go back.


    "You''ve drunk much. Let me drive you back. You have a court trial tomorrow, don''t you?"


    Benjamin looked askance at him again.


    Then he threw his phone at him and said, "Call Madelyn. She should be at the Music Center now. Ask


    her toe here to pick me up."


    Grayson was very astonished.


    How could he be so cheeky?


    He chuckled awkwardly and said, "Ben, are you really drunk? Or are you just pretending?"


    Benjamin didn''t speak. He stubbed out his cigarette and finished another half ss of alcohol. It looked


    like he was determined to get himself drunk.


    Grayson was put in a dilemma and didn''t know what to do.


    But after careful consideration, he still decided to call Madelyn.


    After ringing for a long while, the call was finally answered.


    Grayson spoke apologetically, "Madelyn, I''m Grayson. Ben drank a lot tonight. Is it convenient for you


    toe here to pick him up?"


    Madelyn had just finished a meeting.


    Tyler had provided a profitable project for her and she had just decided on which team to cooperate


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    with. She would have a business trip to Esrand tomorrow and probably stay there for about half a


    month.


    Madelyn was a bit stunned when she heard Grayson''s words.


    She knew Benjamin''s bad mood was rted to her. It was impossible to state that she didn''t have any


    feelings now, but she wouldn''t feel distressed for him anymore.


    They''d broken up and now they had nothing to do with each other.


    There were many good girls in the world, so even if they''d broken up, he could get the feelings he


    wanted with his outstanding conditions.


    Madelyn didn''t refuse it.


    She would leave tomorrow, so she should at least tell him about this.


    Madelyn nodded and said, "Okay. Send me the address. I''ll arrive in about half an hour."


    Grayson was very grateful. He thanked her, "Madelyn, you''re so magnanimous.


    Madelyn also joked with him, "Stop joking. Go back early to apany Vivian."


    Grayson joked with her for a while, which made Madelyn happy. However, when he ended the call, he


    felt something wrong.


    Madelyn was willing toe, but she didn''t ask anything when she heard that Benjamin was very


    drunk!


    Grayson felt a chill down his spine.


    In the past, he was very optimistic about their rtionship, but now he was not sure about it.


    Madelyn hung up her phone.


    She turned off the night and prepared to leave. But when she looked up, she found Nics standing at


    the door and staring at her with a gloomy face.


    Madelyn said in a gentle voice, "Nice performance."


    Nics strode into the office, sat down on her desk, and asked casually, his ferocious gaze gone, "Are


    you going to see Benjamin?"


    Madelyn replied with a grunt.


    Nics frowned and snapped, "Woman, do you like him so much?"


    Madelyn was in a trance.


    But she quickly regained herposure and replied, "You agreed that you wouldn''t ask about my


    private affairs. I reached the cooperation with Mr. Zachary because of you, so I prepare to give you


    30% of the profits of that project. Don''t disvalue money. This is your original umtion."


    Nics'' eyes turned a bit red.


    He couldn''t even utter a word. This woman was always good to him, just like his father!


    Madelyn continued with a smile, "Tell my mom that I''ll visit her tomorrow morning."


    Nics said sarcastically, "Oh, how do you have time to visit your mom? I think you only have time to


    apany Benjamin."


    Madelyn felt the urge to teach him a lesson.


    In the end, they walked downstairs together. Nics always drove her BMW, so Madelyn bought a new


    car and hired another driver.


    She sat in the car and told the driver the name of the club.


    The driver looked astonished and said with a smile, "That''s a good ce. It''s called Heavenly Club."


    Madelyn smiledtely.


    She sat in the backseat quietly and tilted her head to look at the flow of cars and lights outside while


    counting the days in her heart. It had already been two months since she reached the one-year


    agreement with Benjamin.


    Time did fly,


    The ck car stopped at the entrance of the club and Madelyn found Grayson had taken Benjamin out.


    From what Madelyn saw, she concluded that Benjamin did drink some alcohol, but he wasn''t too drunk.


    She saw through his trick and said gently to the driver, "Go to help Mr. rk."


    The driver guessed what was happening between the two. He said with a gossipy expression, "Ms.


    Green, you''re so magnanimous."


    Madelyn smiled lightly.


    The driver and Grayson helped Benjamin into the car.


    When Benjamin sat in the backseat, there was apparent a masculine scent. It was mixed with the smell


    of alcohol and a light fragrance of colophony. It was very enticing.


    Madelyn tilted her head and asked ndly, "Why did you drink so much?"


    Benjamin leaned against the seat.


    He pulled open his necktie and unsped two buttons of his shirt.


    Due to alcohol, his skin looked a bit red and emanated his unique charm and lust.


    As the driver was also in the car, Madelyn was afraid that it would be embarrassing if he continued to


    unsp his shirt. She hurriedly pressed his hand and said, "You have to wait until we''re home even if


    you feel ufortable and want to change your clothes."


    Benjamin stopped in his movements and tilted his head to look at her.


    Madelyn smiled and turned to look at the front.


    Benjamin slowly closed his eyes as if he was resting after drinking. But about ten minutester, he


    suddenly heaved a soft sigh and said, "Madelyn, don''t be so indifferent to me."


    The driver coughed softly.


    Madelyn couldn''t only pretend not to understand his words.


    About half an hourter, the car stopped in the vi. Madelyn helped Benjamin out of the car and asked


    the driver to return home first.


    Apparently, Benjamin was only a bit drunk.


    It was just that he wanted to see her.


    Madelyn supported him into the living room and helped him sit down. She then went to the kitchen to


    cook sober-up soup for him. On the one hand, he needed it now; on the other hand, she didn''t want to


    face him now.


    She reviewed the contents of today''s meeting in her mind.


    But her slender waist was suddenly wrapped by two arms.


    Then she was enveloped by a familiar scent. She didn''t struggle. Instead, she just said softly, "Don''t


    make a fuss. I''m cooking sober-up soup for you. Grayson said you had a court trial tomorrow. You


    shouldn''t have gotten yourself drunk like this!"


    Benjaminughed lowly.


    He kissed the back of her ear and ground her tender skin with his teeth.


    It was Madelyn''s sensitive spot and a gentle bite was enough to make her tremble all over. It seemed


    like he liked doing this recently as he could only get some responses from her only when he seduced


    her. Such a pitiful situation!


    After making out with her for a long while, he panted lightly near her ear.


    "Madelyn, let''s spend the Traditional Valentine''s Day together."


    Traditional Valentine''s Day?


    Madelyn was apparently stunned.


    She had been so busy with her work recently that she almost forgot the time, not to mention the


    Traditional Valentine''s Day...


    Benjamin stroked the small velvet box in his pocket through the fabric and said in a husky voice, "Let


    me arrange for it this time, Okay?"


    Madelyn slowly poured the sober-up soup into a bowl. She paused briefly before answering, "I need to


    go on a business trip tomorrow."

    Chapter 207 Go to Esrand to Give Her a Surprise


    Chapter 207 Go to Esrand to Give Her a Surprise


    Business trip?


    Benjamin sobered up a lot even if he hadn''t drunk the sober-up soup.


    He let go of her and leaned against the kitchen counter behind him. Originally, he wanted to smoke, but


    he gave up as he suddenly remembered that Madelyn had had some problems with her throat recently.


    Madelyn gave him the bowl of soup and said, "I go there for Mr. Zachary''s project. It''s very promising."


    Benjamin couldn''t help but ask, "Is it the reward for taking care of his child?"


    Madelyn thought his words harsh, although it was the truth.


    Sitting on the counter, Benjamin slowly sipped the sober-up soup. He asked again, "Will Nics go


    with you?"


    Madelyn knew he was unhappy now.


    In fact, she didn''t need to exin it. However, she was aware that probably he wouldn''t let her go if she


    didn''t say anything. After weighing, she said ndly, "I got the chance because of him and I can''t


    exin to Mr. Zachary if I don''t take Nics with me. Moreover, we''re not the only two to go. We have


    six people in our team."


    Benjamin didn''t say anything about it.


    It was a tacit approval.


    He reached his hand into his pocket and touched the small velvet box again.


    He measured her finger when they watched the moviest time.


    And he''d gotten the rough circumference of her index finger.


    He''d been wanting to gift her a ring, but he couldn''t find a reason. Traditional Valentine''s Day would be


    a good chance.


    Maybe she wouldn''t ept it, but Benjamin thought Madelyn could at least feel his sincerity as she


    was such a soft-hearted person. Just likest time, although they''d broken up, she still lied to his


    grandmother tofort her.


    Benjamin took Madelyn as a family now.


    He wanted so much to take her to his grandmother''s tomb.


    But he held the desire back.


    One day, when Madelyn was willing to marry him, he would take her there.


    ...


    As Madelyn needed to go to the other city tomorrow, she didn''t stay in the vi tonight. Benjamin asked


    the driver to send her back.


    The luxurious living room of the vi looked a bit lonely after Madelyn''s leaving even if the chandelier


    made the whole vi illuminating. Sitting on the sofa alone, Benjamin took out the velvet box from his


    pocket.


    Inside the box was a diamond ring.


    It had 52 karat.


    All women liked diamonds.


    There were only three days to the Traditional Valentine''s Day!


    Benjamin wanted so much to spend the Traditional Valentine''s Day with Madelyn. He wanted to make


    up for her. Moreover, he wanted to spend this traditional festival for lovers with her.


    He called Paisley after pondering for a while and said, "Rearrange my schedule. I''ll go to Esrand on the


    Traditional Valentine''s Day and the day after it."


    Paisley asked casually, "Is there a new case in Esrand?"


    Benjamin leaned back, resting his head on the sofa, and directly told her, "No. But Madelyn will go


    there for a business trip."


    Paisley immediately understood.


    She replied smilingly, "Then Mr. rk, happy Valentine''s Day."


    Benjamin was in a good mood after ending the call. He didn''t n to tell Madelyn about his n.


    After all, women all like surprises.


    ...


    Madelyn and her team worked in Esrand for two consecutive days.


    It was a profitable project, but it also required great effort.


    The framework of the development n was basically formed after two days and all members of


    Madelyn''s team rested their heads on the desk tiredly.


    But Madelyn was an exception!


    With two dark circles under his eyes, Nics remarked sarcastically, "Woman, how can you disregard


    your life for the sake of money? Holly shit! I''ve only slept for 4 hours in total during these two days!"


    Madelyn signaled her secretly with her eyes.


    The secretary then took out a suitcase.


    When the suitcase was unzipped, stacks of notes were presented to them. The secretary took out the


    stacks of notes and divided them into five.


    There were at least 200,000 for each stack!


    They all cheered up and straightened their backs, staring at the notes without even blinking.


    Madelyn said with a smile, "Take them. 200,000 for each person. By the way, Mr. Zachary will hold a


    banquet at the hotel tonight. Go buy your gowns and have a temporary rxation tonight."


    The team members all cheered, "Ms. Green, you''re so generous!"


    200,000 was never a big amount for Nichs at usual times. However, he admired Madelyn very much


    because, in this way, she won the loyalty of her team members.


    After taking the money, Nics said in a low voice, "Good job. Would you like to be my dance partner


    tonight?"


    Madelyn refused it.


    She retorted just like how he treated her before, "I don''t want to dance with a man younger than me.


    Nics snorted and then strode out.


    Madelyn then began to pack up her things.


    She must attend tonight''s banquet. On the one hand, it was a respect to Tyler; on the other hand, she


    needed to expand her social connections.


    She went back to the hotel and changed into her gown.


    It was a champagne gown with embroideries on it. It was said to be an haute couture of a domestic


    brand with a value of 800,000. And it couldn''t be bought merely with money. It required strong


    backgrounds.


    Of course, it was bought by Vivian.


    Madelyn put on make-up after changing into the gown. She called Vivian and told her the gown was too


    luxurious.


    Vivian replied in a dramatic voice, "So what? You''re doing business now, so you must let others know


    that you have a strong background at first nce. After all, the tailor makes the man."


    Madelyn studied her reflection in the mirror.


    She really looked noble and beautiful.


    She picked up a purse and walked into the elevator, heading to the banquet hall on the second floor.


    When she arrived, she found the banquet hall very lively. It was a grand banquet.


    Nics had arrived early. He was dressed up and was now standing beside Tyler.


    Madelyn walked over.


    Nics looked her up and down and remarked with a snort, "Not bad."


    Madelyn didn''t want to quibble with him. She greeted Tyler.


    Tyler admired her very much and introduced her to several big shots who might be useful to her.


    Madelyn associated with them gracefully, while Nics got more and more anxious.


    This woman would smile to others but she always cold-shouldered him!


    Fuck!


    Who would care about it?


    When Nics was gritting his teeth...


    Tylerughed loudly and said, "Madelyn, you should know this person. He''s David James, son of the


    South now."


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    Madelyn froze a bit.


    David!


    It was actually David!


    She hadn''t heard any news about him for half a year. She didn''t ask about it. Nor did anyone talk about


    him with her. Even Florence wouldn''t bring up David when she learned piano from her.


    Madelyn came back to her sense and slowly turned around.


    Holding a goblet, David was looking at her affectionately.


    He looked mature and somehow different.


    Madelyn felt touched and called softly, "David."


    David smiled at her. He put down his goblet and reached out. Madelyn hesitated a bit before shaking


    hands with her.


    Tylerughed and said, "Turns out you know each other."


    Madelyn slowly came back to her sense. She replied with a smile, "I''m teaching his younger sister


    piano. She''s been my student for a year."


    Tyler had a moment of enlightenment.


    Nics who stood beside him rolled his eyes heavenward.


    Bullshit.


    Sister? Learning Piano? The truth was that David had had a crush on Madelyn for several years. But


    he was sent to the South by Benjamin after confessing to Madelyn.


    By the way, Benjamin''s methods were really vicious!


    The more Nics studied David, the more he thought him an eyesore.


    Shit!


    How long was she going to stare at him? How long were they going to talk?


    Nics wanted to walk forward, but he was amused when he spotted a person. Benjamin was here!


    He was also dressed up. Probably he came to send his gift for Traditional Valentine''s Day to Madelyn


    and spend the festival alone with her!


    But he must haven''t expected this!


    That Madelyn would bump into David!


    Benjamin must feel very jealous now!


    Nics was very happy about this and he began tough. Probably because hisughter was too loud,


    it drew Madelyn''s attention. She looked over following Nics'' gaze...


    Then she saw Benjamin!

 Chapter 208 He Belongs to Her All Night Long

    Chapter 208 He Belongs to Her All Night Long


    Chapter 208 He Belongs to Her All Night Long


    Benjamin was standing gracefully under the dazzling chandelier.


    He was looking at Madelyn.


    He stared at her as she smiled lightly at David.


    She''d been cold-shouldering him these days and seldom smiled so rxedly at him. However, when


    she looked at David, she would smile subconsciously. Could it be that David was more important and


    attractive than him in her heart?


    Benjamin didn''t want to make others see his jealousy. It would make him look too mean.


    However, he still uncontrobly walked toward them, stood before them, and took out a ss of wine


    from the tray held by the waiter aside. He slightly curled up his lips and said to Madelyn, "Haven''t you


    Madelyn had been ustomed to his cheekiness.


    She tilted her head and smiled apologetically at David.


    Of course, David understood what was going on. Although he was in Esrand, he was still well-informed.


    He knew that Madelyn returned to Benjamin for the sake of Grayson and Vivian. However, he could tell


    that they were not as intimate as before.


    David said sarcastically, "Benjamin, are you so anxious about Madelyn that you follow her to Esrand?


    Those who know the inside story would think that youe to spend the Traditional Valentine''s Day


    with her, but those who don''t know would think you''re too doubtful."


    As for the war between two men...


    They not only wanted to win over the other party on the business battlefield and defeat him until he


    couldn''t rise again, and they would also try their best to win the other party orally.


    As awyer, Benjamin was undoubtedly glib-tongued.


    Clenching his ss, he said with a rxed smile, "I don''t think I have a strong rival in Esrand. Madelyn,


    what do you think of it?"


    Madelyn shot a nce at him, signaling him not to go too far.


    Benjamin leaned forward and whispered into her ear, "Do you feel distressed for him?"


    Madelyn also lowered her voice as she replied, "Benjamin, are you here to seek trouble for me? I met


    him at the banquet. That''s all. We didn''t do anything. You don''t have to act like this!"


    "I''m getting jealous."


    Benjamin expressed how he felt bluntly and stared at her intensely.


    There were many people at the banquet and Madelyn couldn''t bear such a gaze at all. Her ears slowly


    turned red.


    David''s smile slowly disappeared from his face.


    Standing beside David with a ss of wine in his hand, Nics ridiculed him in a low voice, "See, no


    one can win over Benjamin in terms of cheekiness!"


    David slowly drank the wine in his ss.


    The pungent liquid slipped into his throat and flew into his stomach. It made him ufortable, but


    somehow, it fitted his current mood.


    Looking at the perfectly-matched couple, David replied in a low voice, "I was wrong."


    Nics was bewildered because his reply didn''t have anything to do with his question.


    But David himself knew what it meant.


    When he pursued Madelyn, he''d never expected that Benjamin would be so stubborn about getting


    Madelyn. Benjamin was a workaholic and at first, it was apparent that he didn''t take Madelyn seriously.


    No one had expected that they would end up like this.


    But David was more aware that he didn''t lose to Benjamin.


    He only lost to the time.


    Who said that there was no order of arrival in love?


    David left the banquet quietly just like how he showed up here tonight.


    ...


    All lively banquets woulde to an end.


    With Benjamin by Madelyn''s side, no one dared to approach her anymore.


    When the banquet was over, Madelyn stared at the red figure on the screen of the elevator and asked


    in a gentle voice, "Did you reserve a hotel room? If not, I''ll let my secretary get one for you."


    Benjamin stared at her, his eyes unfathomable, "I''ll stay in your room."


    Madelyn looked down and clicked her phone, saying, "Let me reserve one for you. I have to deal with


    my work in the next few times and I may not have time to apany you."


    Her phone was then snatched away.


    Benjamin said with a serious tone, "I won''t bother you!"


    Madelyn remained silent and stared at the elevator quietly until the doors were opened.


    As the banquet had juste to an end, many people were waiting in front of the elevator. They


    swarmed into the elevator, making it crowded. Madelyn had to stick to the wall and she felt very


    ufortable.


    The next moment, she was pulled into an embrace by an arm.


    Madelyn was a bit dumbfounded.


    It was Benjamin!


    She was forced to lean against his chest with her cheeks rubbing against it through the twoyers of


    fabric. She slightly raised her head and saw his bobbing Adam''s apple. It looked damned sexy!


    Benjamin looked down at her.


    His dark eyes looked unfathomable with thick emotions surging inside.


    As expected, his emotions exploded when they returned to her hotel room.


    The elegance he showed at the banquet was all gone.


    He pressed Madelyn on the thick door and stretched a leg forward to confine her between himself and


    the door, not giving her a chance to escape.


    Madelyn turned to look aside and asked, "Benjamin, what do you want to do?"


    Benjamin gently brushed her tender cheek and asked in a husky voice with a hint of pain in it,


    "Madelyn, you still hate me for David''s matter, right?"


    Madelyn remained silent.


    Maybe such a night was suitable for an emotional explosion.


    For him, and for her!


    She turned back to look at him and said in a gentle yet firm voice, "Benjamin, David''s matter has


    nothing to do with our rtionship. It''s rted to the gap between our social status. Just like you knew


    long ago. At that time, I was about to go to Edoford and I never managed to keep you even if I would


    ask you to stay every time you wanted to go to find Eleanor. However, I couldn''tin about it.


    Instead, I had to leave Gredax to help you make up for your regret about your first love. Wasn''t that


    unequal? If that happened between a normal lover, they would have fought. But I couldn''t. Because


    you''re Benjamin rk! It''s the same for David and his father''s matter. You enjoy the pleasure of


    controlling everything brought by your social status, but I, such an insignificant person, should have the


    right to refuse you, shouldn''t I?"


    Tears welled up in her eyes when she finished the words.


    In fact, she had also thought about the possibility that Jackson and Vivian''s matter had something to do


    with Benjamin.


    He was waiting for her to ask for his help.


    She did turn to him and he did help Vivian. But for some matters, she didn''t want to dig into them.


    However, they shouldn''t talk about love anymore as they''d ended up like this.


    Benjamin felt turbulent in his heart.


    He reached out to touch her cheek and asked in a low voice, "Madelyn, do you want to beat me?"


    "Just like a normal couple in love, you should p me if you''re unhappy."


    "Scratch my neck until it bleeds."


    ...


    Madelyn said angrily, "Benjamin, you''re an asshole!"


    He grasped her hand and pped it against his handsome face. Madelyn exerted great force, wanting


    to withdraw her hand back, but failed.


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    This was how it went between men and women. When one partyunched an attack, the other party


    would step back.


    Madelyn said in an annoyed voice, "Don''t think I won''t beat you!"


    With that, she gave him a p.


    The spacious room was suddenly enveloped by silence and only their pants could be heard. However,


    soon, the silence was broken as Madelyn scratched his neck, making it bleed a bit.


    Benjamin licked his lips, feeling a bit excited.


    He gripped her waist with great force, lowered his head, and began to kiss her. But Madelyn was


    unwilling and bit his lips.


    The kiss was then filled with the smell of blood.


    In the end, her minor "violence" triggered his desire to conquer and he became anxious, lustful, and


    violent... He was so impatient that he didn''t change the ce and took him with such a posture.


    Her haute couture fell to the ground.


    She was in a mess while he was still decently dressed. If she didn''t see his expression, she wouldn''t


    know that he was also stimted intensely.


    The sex was especially long.


    When he finally released, Madelyn heaved a sigh of relief. But he suddenly carried her up and walked


    toward the bedroom while kissing her crazily.


    It was the night of the Traditional Valentine''s Day.


    And he belonged to her all night long!

 Chapter 209 Give Me a Child, Madelyn

    Chapter 209 Give Me a Child, Madelyn


    Chapter 209 Give Me a Child, Madelyn


    They all felt unease when everything ended.


    Especially Madelyn, she thought such a fierce way didn''t suit them.


    However, they did have fierce sex.


    Their sweats turned a bit cold and Madelyn felt veryfortable. She wanted to take a bath, but


    Benjamin gently pressed her down and said, "Apany me for a more while."


    He leaned forward, kissed the back of her ear, and said affectionately, "Don''t cold-shoulder me like this


    anymore, please."


    He reached out to the end of the bed for his suit pants and a small box rolled out of it.


    Madelyn guessed what he wanted to do. She stood up again and said, "I''ll go take a bath."


    Benjamin pulled down.


    And Madelyn fell into his embrace.


    Benjamin showed the ring in the box to her and said, "A 5.2g diamond ring. Do you like it?"


    He stared at her eagerly after finishing the words.


    Madelyn took the ring out of the box and put it on her middle finger. It didn''t fit her finger.


    She said smilingly, "It doesn''t fit me. It''s small."


    Benjamin spoke, his eyes unfathomable, "Maybe it fits your index finger. Try it."


    Madelyn knew that he seldom took the initiative to please a woman humbly. If she was sensible


    enough, she should ept the gift ecstatically and then marry him happily.


    But this would only happen in the past.


    Before that Valentine''s Day, she wouldn''t refuse his proposal no matter when he presented her with a


    diamond ring and put it on her index finger.


    He was still very charming now but her feelings for him had decreased.


    Madelyn wanted to refuse him, but she shut up on a second thought.


    She suddenly remembered that they were so crazy tonight that he didn''t take any contraception


    measures.


    She put the ring back into the box and closed it.


    After a while of silence, she spoke, "I''m not on my safe period."


    Benjamin immediately understood what she meant. His handsome face flushed a bit as he coughed


    softly and said awkwardly, "You don''t have to take pills. I didn''t cum inside."


    Madelyn was still worried.


    Although she was not a devout believer, she had her own faith. If she was pregnant, it meant the child


    was destined to be her child and she would give birth to it.


    Apparently, Benjamin didn''t want her to take pills, so she prepared to buy them by herself.


    He slightly pressed her down and made a concession, "I''ll buy them for you."


    Madelyn replied with a gentle grunt and said politely, "Thank you."


    Benjamin was so angered yet amused.


    He pinched her chin while putting on his clothes and said reluctantly, "Sometimes I have the feeling that


    you just toss me aside after taking pleasure from me. You feelfortable when we have sex, but you


    just cold-shoulder me after that!"


    His words were very vulgar.


    But Madelyn didn''t want to lose to him.


    She lifted the quilt in front of him, stood up, and walked toward the bathroom. When the door of the


    bathroom was closed, she spoke, "I didn''t deny your hard work. You did make mefortable."


    Benjamin''s cock twitched under his pants when he heard the words.


    This seductive woman!


    He put on his shirt and went downstairs to buy pills.


    When he came back, he found Madelyn had finished the bath and skincare and was now standing


    before the floor-to-ceiling window to appreciate the scenery outside.


    Benjamin closed the door.


    He poured a ss of warm water for her, took out the pills, and gave them to her.


    He stared at her when she took the pills and said in a soft voice, "Madelyn, don''t I deserve your


    forgiveness? Was I sentenced to death in your heart?"


    Madelyn was stunned.


    Then she continued to take the pills. She swallowed the pills along with water, but they still tasted a bit


    bitter.


    Benjamin hugged her gently and whispered into her ear in a soft voice, "Madelyn, I want to be a father.


    Boy or girl, I''m Okay with it. What I want is a Mini Madelyn. She will inherit your dark-brown hair and


    will have ivory skin. I will make her a little princess and I won''t allow anyone to bully her."


    Madelyn became stiff.


    Benjamin stroked the soft flesh of the back of her ear with his fingers and said in a gentler voice, "Give


    me a child, Madelyn. I want a child so much."


    At such a warm moment, Benjamin''s phone rang. It was Alexander calling.


    Alexander said in a serious voice, "Benjamin, go back to Gredax right now."


    "Eloise took pills. She took three sleeping pills. Your mom almost cried her eyes out."


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    "Why? Daniel had a mistress outside and that mistress even came to me!"


    ...


    Benjamin felt quite helpless.


    Three sleeping pills? Was that enough to kill herself?


    But he had to solve this matter. He had a hunch that his father was very angry not only because of


    Daniel but also somehow because of Madelyn. It was just that Alexander didn''t point it out.


    Benjamin took out a cigarette, lit it up, and said, "I need to go back to Gredax."


    Madelyn also heard the conversation.


    She liked Eloise very much, so she reminded him, "Spend more time apanying her."


    Benjamin paused in his movements and stared at her with a meaningful smile. After a long while, he


    finally spoke, "Why do you care about her so much?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to answer the question. Shey down in the bed and closed her eyes.


    Probably because she was very tired, she looked exceptionally soft now.


    Benjamin couldn''t help but lean forward to kiss her. Heined in a low voice, "We fucked for too


    long and my legs are a bit weak."


    Madelyn felt annoyed and threw a pillow at her.


    Benjamin chuckled and reached his hand into the quilt to touch her, saying, "Stop pretending. You also


    enjoyed it just now, but you pretended as if you didn''t care a bit. If I turn to the other woman, you''ll lose


    the chance to enjoy a top-ss handsome man like me."


    He hadn''t flirted with her for so long and at this moment, Madelyn felt as if they''d returned to the past.


    She was in a trance.


    Benjamin seemed to notice it too. He nted a kiss on her lips seriously.


    "I''m leaving."


    "Don''t go to see David."


    ...


    Benjamin took an exclusive ne back to Gredax.


    As soon as he walked into the rks'' mansion, he found the whole family enveloped by sadness.


    The beautiful and amiable Brianna acted as if she had seen a savior when she saw Benjamin. She


    walked forward and said in a low voice, "Go to persuade your sister. She didn''t eat anything all day


    long and even took three sleeping pills."


    Benjaminforted her, "It''s Okay. I''ll go check on her."


    Brianna nodded tearfully.


    When Benjamin walked upstairs, Brianna stopped him and stammered as if she wanted to say


    something. "Ben..."


    Benjamin knew what she wanted to say.


    He said with a smile, "Mom, I''ll exin to Dadter." With that, he headed toward the second floor.


    When he pushed open the door, he saw Eloise lying in her bed with her head buried in the quilt.


    Benjamin sat on the edge of the bed and tugged at the quilt, but he failed to toss it aside.


    He teased, "You survived three sleeping pills, so don''t get smothered. If such a joke bes a piece


    of news, the rk family will be very embarrassed."


    Eloise immediately got out of the quilt and threw herself into Benjamin''s arms.


    Benjamin knew she was very sad now. He caressed her head and said gently, "Are you trying to


    Eloise mumbled in his arms, "Brother, you''re so bad."


    "Oh?"


    "Madelyn was once Daniel''s boyfriend. But you never told me about that and even fell in love with her


    and wanted to marry her."


    ...


    Benjamin smiled.


    He leaned against the head of the bed and stroked her head as if he was caressing a puppy. Then he


    began to brainwash her, "It''s true that they were once in a rtionship, but that was just a game


    between kids and didn''t mean anything. I''m Madelyn''s first man."


    Eloise was not deceived. She asked, "Can''t it be counted as a rtionship if they haven''t had sex?"


    Benjamin replied with a matter-of-the-fact tone, "Does having a meal together mean falling in love?


    Dad also ate with the servants in our house. Should we call those maids stepmothers?"


    Eloise was rendered speechless.

    Chapter 210 Madelyn''s Uncle Comes


    Benjamin patted her head and asked, "Now tell me, do you still want to marry Daniel?"


    Eloise''s face turned pale as she shook her head.


    She didn''t want him anymore.


    Daniel was having a mistress outside! They even cheated on her before their marriage and she didn''t


    want him anymore.


    Benjamin didn''t ridicule her.


    He hugged her quietly just like they did in childhood.


    After a long while, he lowered his head and said, "Go to my vi the other day. I''ll let your sister-inw


    fry chicken legs for you. Isn''t that your favorite?"


    Eloise withdrew from his embrace and stared at him as if she was looking at a patient.


    After a long while, she sniffed and said slowly, "Dad is very angry. I think he won''t agree to your


    marriage. Moreover, it seems like Madelyn hasn''t forgiven you or agreed to marry you. Brother, are we


    two going to stay single for the rest of our lives?"


    ...


    In the study of the rks'' mansion...


    Alexander was very furious. This was too ridiculous!


    The two youngsters, Daniel and Madelyn, whom he liked and admired the most, were once in a


    rtionship! And it was a four-year rtionship!


    When Benjamin entered the study, Alexander mmed a cup to his feet.


    Benjamin didn''t dodge it and the cup hit his forehead. The next moment, red blood flew down his


    forehead.


    Brianna felt very distressed for him.


    Alexander sneered as he snapped, "Look at yourself. He just bleeds a bit, but you feel so distressed for


    him. It''s just his self-injury trick. He yed it because he knew he would win your sympathy."


    Benjamin pretended as if he didn''t know anything as he asked, "Dad, I heard that Daniel had a


    mistress. But does this have anything to do with me?"


    Alexander was angered.


    With his hands on his hips, he pointed at Benjamin and reprimanded him, "Why are you still


    pretending? You look like a decent man, but why are you so good at pretending? I didn''t say anything


    about it when you tricked others with this at courts, but now you''re at home, trying to deceive your


    father! What do you want to do? Let me tell you. Daniel''s mistress has told me everything."


    Benjamin fell into silence.


    He sat down on the sofa and withdraw a tissue to stop the bleeding.


    Alexander red at him and asked, "Why are you silent? Benjamin, you''re so awesome. You knew well


    about their rtionship, but you made that girl your own without saying anything. When you were tired


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    of her, you just abandoned her at will because no one would know about it. Am I right? Tell me, what


    should we do now?"


    Benjamin replied slowly, "Eloise wants to break up with Daniel."


    He continued with a meaningful smile, "Dad, what should I do to attack the Campbell Group to vent


    your anger? I will do it as you wish. I will deal with the matters that you can''t do."


    Alexander was more furious.


    Benjamin was so good at avoiding the important and dwelling on the trivial.


    He red at his wife and shouted, "Look at your good son. He''s so scheming!"


    Brianna retorted, "He inherited your genes. How could you me me?"


    Alexander touched his nose and said in a less serious voice, "Call Madelyn over. I need to ask her


    about this matter."


    "She''s in Esrand for a big project."


    "Dad, you should discard your feudal thoughts. Moreover, Madelyn was a virgin when she fell in love


    with me. I''m her first man. Daniel is nothing in front of our rtionship."


    ...


    Alexander was angered yet amused.


    He took out a cigarette, lit it up, and smoked it slowly, saying, "So ording to you, I should praise you


    for acting quickly? Are you proud of it? Benjamin, let me tell you, it''s what a shameless asshole does. I


    won''t agree to your marriage!"


    Benjamin didn''t care about it at all.


    His father''s consent didn''t matter. What mattered the most was that Madelyn was cold-shouldering him


    now.


    Benjamin said reservedly, "Dad, it''s too early to talk about this now. The key is that she''s not willing to


    marry me now. She''s cold-shouldering your son. I''m in a low position in our rtionship now."


    Alexander felt much better. He looked askance at him and remarked, "So useless."


    Benjamin sensed that his father was softened in his attitude from his expression. When he was about


    to continue to persuade his father, the butler came over and said anxiously, "Mr. rk, Mrs. rk, a


    man from the Ryan family of Vadiff wants to see Young Master?"


    The Ryan family of Vadiff?


    Alexander had been engaged in the sophisticated business world for decades and had experienced a


    lot, so naturally, he was different from ordinary people.


    He had sensed something wrong.


    He hurriedly walked to the window and withdrew the curtains, only to see several ck recreational


    vehicles parked in the courtyard. The vehicles were not that expensive. They were all Audi A8, which


    was generally a type of business car for government officials.


    Alexander figured out the man''s identity.


    He must be Keh Ryan, the current patriarch of the Ryan family.


    Unlike them, Keh was a government official and had a high position in the political circle.


    As for other members of the Ryan family, some of them were engaged in the business circle while


    some of them were engaged in the art circle. But they all took Keh as the center of their careers.


    Whenever there was a big event in the Ryan family, they would ask Keh to decide on it.


    The most famous thing about Keh was that he was still unmarried.


    He''d been looking for his younger sister.


    Alexander stared at the people outside and said in a very gentle voice, "The patriarch of the Ryan


    family looks humble on the surface, but he''s in fact a ferocious person. He''s killed many people. Ben,


    how did you provoke him?"


    Benjamin somehow guessed it.


    However, he didn''t point it out. He only replied with a smile, "Probably because the Ryan family doesn''t


    have many descendants and wants to pick up a live-in son-inw from the rk family."


    Alexander was angered again.


    He stubbed out his cigarette and said ferociously, "Go downstairs to greet our distinguished guest with


    me."


    after a short while, Alexander and Benjamin went downstairs.


    A tall man was standing in the tall living hall of the rks'' mansion with his hands behind his back. He


    was studying an authentic painting hanging on the wall. Although Benjamin couldn''t see his face, he


    was amazed by his back as he looked very elegant and outstanding.


    He turned around with a light smile when he heard the footsteps.


    Although he was in his forties, he still looked handsome and well-cared. He looked like a 35-or-36-year-


    old man.


    Alexander looked very shocked.


    Everyone knew that the moreposed Keh appeared to be, the angrier he was inside.


    Of course, Alexander was also a friendly-looking cunning man. He hid away his shock and walked over


    and shook hands with Keh hospitably, "Mr. Ryan, are you interested in that painting?"


    Keh replied, still smiling, "It''s the apple of your eye. How will I snatch it from you?"


    Alexander exchanged a few words with him and asked the servant to serve tea.


    Benjamin was very arrogant at usual times, but at this moment, he took the tray from the servant and


    poured a cup of tea for Keh. Then he said respectfully, "Uncle Ryan, this is a famous tea from the


    tops of snow mountains. Please have a try."


    Alexander rolled his eyes and thought to himself, "When did this brat change?"


    But Keh knew him well.


    He didn''t drink the tea. Instead, he took out a photo from his jacket. It looked yellowed as if it was taken


    several years ago. He softly put the photo on the tea table and said with a smile, "Mr. rk, Ie to


    ask about a person today."


    Benjamin picked up the photo.


    The girl in the photo looked beautiful and naughty and she looked like Madelyn.


    Keh finally picked up his cup of tea. However, he paused when his lips touched the cup and asked,


    "Mr. rk, do you feel it familiar? This is my long-lost sister. She''s dead. But she gave birth to a


    daughter and her name is Madelyn."


    He put down the car after finishing the words.


    Then he fixed his gentle eyes on Alexander and Benjamin and said ndly and politely, "I''ve been


    looking for her for so long. And I heard that she has an intimate rtionship with the young master of


    the rk family. Therefore, I visited without informing you first, which might appear to impolite."

 Chapter 211 I Am Your Uncle

    Chapter 211 I Am Your Uncle


    Chapter 211 I Am Your Uncle


    Benjamin sat across from Keh.


    One had to be extremely careful when talking to someone like Keh, but Benjamin spoke directly


    nheless. "I want to marry Madelyn!"


    Keh smiled gracefully.


    He removed a cigarette case, extracted a snow-white cigarette, and yed with it between his fingers.


    After a brief pause, he stated, "We are aware of your rtionship! My mother is the first in our family to


    oppose your marriage to Madelyn. My sister Madeline chose the wrong man and led a miserable life


    back then, bringing our family immense regret. So Madelyn''s marriage requires extreme caution!"


    Alexander looked at his son.


    Benjamin''s expression became calm.


    "I believe you understand what I''m saying!" Keh smiled again. "To put it simply, Madelyn is the only


    girl in her generation of my family. She is extremely precious. There''s no reason to make her suffer any


    longer now that she''s been found by us."


    Alexander immediately understood.


    Keh knew everything and came here purposefully to make things difficult for him and his son.


    His wordspletely caught them off guard!


    Alexander was furious with Benjamin!


    Well, let''s see what you can do now!


    It would be difficult for ordinary people to bear such mockery and not lose control.


    But Benjamin remainedposed, respectfully pouring coffee for Keh.


    "I will remember everything uncle Ryan said."


    "I will treat Madelyn well and never let her suffer again."


    ...


    Keh was slightly surprised.


    He had heard that Benjamin was eloquent in court, but he didn''t expect him to be so brazen-faced.


    Keh nced at Benjamin and got up lightly, "I''ve taken up enough of your time! I''ll leave now!"


    Alexander and Benjamin personally escorted him.


    Several ck-d bodyguards approached, surrounding Keh as he got into the car.


    Benjamin opened the car door for Keh. "Take care, uncle Ryan. I''ll definitely visit you in Vadiff


    another day."


    Keh paused for a moment, looking at Benjamin''s face. Then he smiled faintly and got into the car.


    The four Audi A8s drove away slowly.


    "All right, we don''t need to discuss whether I agree with your marriage to Madelyn anymore," Alexander


    scoffed at his son. "Can''t you see it? Madelyn''s family opposes your marriage! The Ryan family has a


    remarkable history. It isn''t as simple as you going rogue with Madelyn for this to work! Keh is


    ruthless and can aplish whatever you can think of!"


    Benjamin stood there with his hands in his pockets, looking into the distance.


    He could stillugh at such words, "Father, don''t you think Madelyn looks a lot like Keh?"


    Alexander was infuriated!


    That''s all this shameless brat now cares about?


    Back in the hall, Eloise actually came downstairs. She peeked outside and eagerly said, "Madelyn''s


    uncle is so handsome!"


    ...


    After leaving the rks'' mansion, Keh went straight to Cam''s ce.


    Cam''s neighborhood was less upscale, but it still had a homey feel. When the four ck Audi A8s


    arrived, along with the bodyguards along the way, it left quite an impression on Cam.


    Keh spoke politely to her.


    Cam had seen the world, but this man still amazed her.


    Even Snowy barked twice.


    Keh smiled, "You must be Cam! I am Madeline''s twin brother, Keh."


    Cam was once again shocked.


    She shook her head, making sure she wasn''t dreaming!


    Keh was foreign to her, but he knew so much about her. "My sister and brother-inw have died,"


    he added softly. "I know you were the one who looked after Madelyn all these years. I came this time to


    mourn my deceased sister and brother-inw, as well as to wee you to Vadiff. My mother wishes


    to meet with you!"


    Cam was deeply moved.


    She''d never met Madeline, but this man was Madelyn''s biological uncle, and he carried himself so well.


    She was happy for Madelyn.


    Cam poured coffee for Keh and smiled, "Mr. Ryan, Madelyn is currently on a business trip in


    Esrand. When she returns, I''ll ask her to go to Vadiff and meet with your mother... As for me, I won''t go,


    to avoid causing any trouble."


    But Keh insisted.


    He gently held Cam''s hands and spoke even more kindly, "Cam, you''re creating distance if you


    say that. My mother made it clear that I must invite you to stay in Vadiff for a few days!"


    Cam blushed.


    Ah!


    Even at her age, she felt a little shy being gazed at by such a charming and refined man and holding


    hands with him. "I can''t make that decision," she muttered. "I need to talk to Madelyn about it!"


    Keh let go of her hands and smiled as he sipped his coffee.


    After a while, he chuckled, "I didn''t expect that child to be so independent. Cam, you seem to be


    acting like a younger generation, reporting everything to her!"


    Cam felt embarrassed, but she really couldn''t make the decision.


    She called Madelyn and quickly exined the situation.


    There was silence on the other end of the phone before Madelyn asked softly, "Is he with you?"


    Cam sighed, "I''ll let him talk to you over the phone!"


    Cam handed the phone to Keh.


    Even Keh, such a prominent figure who had experienced many ups and downs, had a slight tremor


    in his voice when talking to his sister''s flesh and blood on the phone: "Madelyn, I am your uncle."


    Keh spoke slowly and recounted past events, saying many things.


    Madelyn''s throat felt dry.


    She had never met anyone from her grandmother''s side, and if she knew about their prominent status,


    she would probably feel ufortable. She felt much better after learning that the Ryan family had


    never given up on her mother.


    Keh said gently, "I will go mourn your motherter. When you finish your work, I will send a private


    ne to pick you up to Vadiff."


    Madelyn agreed.


    She asked Keh with a plea, "Please take care of my... mom."


    Keh knew she was referring to Cam and smiled as he agreed.


    After hanging up the phone, Keh smiled and said, "Please show me the way, Cam. I want to


    see... my sister!"


    Cam''s eyes turned red.


    She nodded and quickly prepared a few dishes.


    There were dishes Samuel liked, as well as dishes Madeline liked. They also bought a bunch of tiny


    daisies from a flower shop.


    Keh bought pink roses.


    In his heart, Madeline would be 18 years old forever, and pink was suitable for her.


    The weather is gloomy, and there is a drizzle in the cemetery.


    A gentle and refined man stood in front of the tombstone. He stood there for a long time with Cam by


    his side. Even though the man beside her didn''t say anything, Cam could feel his sorrow.


    "Madeline and I are twins. We are closer than other siblings."


    "When she dropped out of Monatiz and became pregnant without revealing the identity of the child''s


    father, she left home in anger after being scolded by our mother! The Ryan family searched for her for


    many years, but never expected to find her in such a way!"


    ...


    Keh put down the rose.


    His voice trembled slightly, "Madeline, your brother hase to see you!"


    ...


    Cam couldn''t help but sob.


    She loved Samuel deeply and had even been jealous of Madeline, but she was ultimately kind-hearted.


    She couldn''t bear to see others in pain.


    Madeline, a woman with such a good background, had such a tragic ending.


    Cam said softly, "Mr. Ryan, Madelyn''s biological father..."


    Keh''s voice lost its warmth, "William? He doesn''t deserve it! Madelyn is the child of Madeline and


    Samuel, as well as your child. And most importantly, she is the child of the Ryan family!"


    ...


    After talking to Keh, Madelyn was dazed for a long time.


    She knew Keh was a famous person in the South, an influential figure.


    She never expected him to be her uncle!


    It took Madelyn half a day to digest this information. During this time, Benjamin called her and sent her


    WhatsApp messages, and she lightly told him she was okay.


    Perhaps she had experienced too much; Madelyn had be numb.


    She threw herself into work, and ten dayster, the project in Esrand wasunched, which went


    smoother than expected.


    On the day ofpletion, she called Keh.


    She declined the private ne because it would attract too much attention and took a flight to Vadiff


    instead.


    Keh personally came to the airport to pick her up.


    Due to his identity, he sat in the car and waited for her. A bodyguard escorted Madelyn into the car and


    said, "Ms. Green, Mr. Ryan is in the car."


    Madelyn nodded and got in the car.


    A refined man was sitting in the back seat of the ck sedan. He looked decent and handsome, giving


    people a good impression at first sight.


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    He... looked so much like her mother!


    Madelyn didn''t say anything; her lips trembled slightly.


    Keh gently embraced her head without saying a word, savoring this tender moment.


    25 years...


    Madeline had been away from home for 25 years and only left this flesh and blood behind.


    Keh loved her deep down in his bones.


    After a while, he finally calmed down and instructed the driver to start the car. As they drove, he


    introduced the situation at home to Madelyn, "Your grandmother gave birth to me and your mother, but


    there are many older cousins and siblings in the family. You are the only girl of your generation.


    Everyone will be so happy to see you return!"


    Madelyn listened quietly.


    Later, Keh held her hand and whispered, "Your grandmother has missed your mother too much


    over the years and has cried her eyes out! She wants you to stay in Vadiff for her care."


    Madelyn hesitated.


    Keh smiled, "I''ve thought about it. Cam will alsoe to Vadiff to retire, together with Snowy."


    Madelyn looked at his profile.


    His profile was handsome, especially resembling her mother in the photos. She wanted to look at him


    like this.


    She liked her uncle.


    After thinking momentarily, she said, "My career at Gredax is just starting, and I can''t just drop


    everything. I want to wait another two years until everything settles down before running back and


    forth."


    Keh agreed.


    It was good that the girl had ambition. Samuel and Cam had raised her well in this regard!


    Keh smiled and touched her head. Madelyn always felt that he was looking at her mother.


    ...


    The ck sedan slowly entered the manor.


    The Ryan family was bustling with excitement.


    Keh''s lineage was the core of the Ryan family, and since Keh had not married or had no


    children, finding a lost child suddenly became a significant family event, and everyone who coulde


    came.


    Keh''s car slowly entered the mansion...


    When he exited the car, an olddy greeted them, hugging Madelyn and bursting into tears.


    It was said that there is a special bond between different generations, and furthermore, her only


    daughter had passed away, leaving behind just this one flesh and blood. How could she not feel


    heartache?


    The olddy said all the affectionate words she had umted over a lifetime.


    Good girl, baby, sweetheart...


    Madelyn felt a bit shy. She had never been cherished like this before.


    Keh gently patted the olddy''s shoulder and said warmly, "It''s a good thing for Madelyn toe


    back. Why are you crying so much? We just talked in the car about how you cried your eyes out.


    Madelyn feels sorry for you."


    The olddy stopped her tears and grabbed Madelyn, examining her head to toe.


    Then, she smiled at Cam and said, "Who does this child resemble! She looks like Madeline and also


    a bit like you!"


    Cam was deeply moved.


    She had never expected that the Ryan family would treat her like this. The olddy even mentioned


    adopting her as a goddaughter.


    The olddy pulled them together and said, "Keh is right. Today is a good day!"


    The front of the Ryan family''s manor was filled with fireworks worth over a hundred thousand dors.


    Keh personally lit them up and then started the feast.


    The Ryan family wasrge, and over a dozen tables were upied. Just as the dishes were being


    served, the butler came over and reported, "Mr. Ryan, someone from Gredax has sent a gift!"


    Keh paused.


    Gredax... sending a gift?

 Chapter 212 She Has Benjamins Flesh and Blood

    Chapter 212 She Has Benjamin''s Flesh and Blood


    Chapter 212 She Has Benjamin''s Flesh and Blood


    Keh smirked, "Are they from the rk family?"


    The butler smiled ufortably and nced at Madelyn... The Ryan family was well aware of her


    rtionship with Benjamin.


    After considering for a moment, Keh let theme in.


    A line of 18 ck Mercedes-Benz cars and 88 exquisite gifts, all in pairs...


    Keh pointed at them and asked, "Is it just a simple act of giving gifts, or are youing to propose


    marriage?"


    The representatives from the rk family smiled.


    Before the grandmother could speak, Keh whispered softly, "I''ve seen him; he''s talented and


    presentable!"


    The grandmother trusted her son the most and nodded.


    Keh epted only half of the gifts but did not agree to anything.


    By doing so, he established Madelyn''s dominance in the Ryan family!


    His niece was very popr, and even the wealthiest family in the north came to propose to her. He


    wanted Madelyn, the Miss of the Ryan family, to have a stable position!


    Madelyn was moved by this.


    What did Benjamin mean by this?


    On that evening, when she finally had some free time, she was about to contact him when Benjamin


    first got her.


    Madelyn answered the phone.


    His tone was unusually gentle, "Are you having a good time in Vadiff?"


    Madelyn nodded, "Yes!"


    She thought momentarily and decided to be direct, "Don''t send gifts anymore, I''m afraid..."


    "Afraid that people will misunderstand?"


    "Madelyn, I actually wanted to propose to you, but your uncle refused my proposal!"


    ...


    During thete night hours, Benjamin''s voice was ambiguous, "What should I do? It''s getting harder for


    me to pursue you, Madelyn. Do you want me toe over?"


    Madelyn shook her head.


    Acknowledging her roots and family had nothing to do with their rtionship.


    Benjamin was clearly just taking advantage of the situation.


    Madelyn remained calm.


    She said softly, "Let''s talk about it when I get back to Gredax!"


    There was a long silence from Benjamin before he whispered, "Madelyn, are you... rejecting me from


    entering your life?"


    In her generation of the Ryan family, she was the only girl.


    Keh''s behavior clearly indicated that he wanted her to return to Vadiff. If Madelyn agreed to return,


    would they still have a chance?


    After he asked, neither of them spoke.


    Madelyn knew he wanted amitment, but she couldn''t give him one at the moment!


    She didn''t want to hastily relinquish her emotions and everything she had because of a momentary


    impulse.


    Finally, Benjamin hung up the phone.


    ...


    Madelyn stayed with the Ryan family for three days before returning to Gredax.


    The driver dropped her off at the front of her apartment building. There was a ck Maybach parked


    there, with the window open. A slender arm rested on the window sill, and the person inside kept


    smoking.


    It was Benjamin.


    When he saw Madelyn, he opened the car door, got out, and took the luggage from her hand, "You''re


    back?"


    Madelyn made a sound of agreement.


    They hadn''t seen each other for almost a month, and their meeting felt somewhat unfamiliar.


    Benjamin stubbed out the cigarette and walked upstairs in front of her.


    Madelyn initially wanted to stop him, but seeing his deste figure, she swallowed her words and


    followed him upstairs.


    When Madelyn opened the door, Benjamin couldn''t help but hug her from behind.


    She stiffened slightly.


    Benjamin seemed to sense it, and he whispered near her ear, "I won''t touch you. It''s been a long time


    since we had a meal together. How about making some shredded chicken noodles?"


    Madelyn made a sound of agreement.


    She walked in through the door, with Benjamin following behind her. He looked around and asked,


    "Where''s our dog?"


    Madelyn smiled and said, "I left Snow in Vadiff."


    Benjamin turned her body around and gently pressed her onto the small sofa. He asked in a low voice,


    "Do you n to let the dog be named Ryan too?"


    Madelyn found him boring.


    She pushed him away and went downstairs to the kitchen. She hadn''t eaten lunch herself and wanted


    something hot to eat.


    Benjamin poured her a ss of milk.


    Leaning against the kitchen counter, he casually said, "I heard that the Esrand project is going very


    well."


    Madelyn nodded, "Yes! I left Nics there for two months, and he is fully in charge of the project... You


    don''t have to worry about his abilities. Mr. Zachary will look after him, and he will help when


    necessary!"


    Benjamin''s gaze was intense.


    In these past few months, Madelyn had undergone a transformation.


    He liked how she had changed, but he wanted more. He wanted topletely possess her.


    Keh''s appearance definitely made him uneasy.


    While she was washing vegetables, he hugged her slender waist tightly, "Will you go to Vadiff in the


    future?"


    Madelyn paused, "Hmm, I''m considering it!"


    Benjamin''s heart sank slightly, but he persevered and asked, "And then? Participate in the blind date


    arranged by Keh for you? Madelyn, what should I do? How do you want to arrange me?"


    After struggling for a while, he finally got to the point.


    He still asked for hermitment!


    Madelyn wasn''t heartless.


    She had experienced the pain of love, and she knew that Benjamin liked her. But she wasn''t ready to


    marry, and liking someone...didn''t necessarily mean they had to be together.


    Being with him did bring her joy and happiness, but who knew what the future holds? What if one night,


    he received a call from the Bet family and abandoned her again?


    Madelyn continued washing the vegetables.


    The room was quiet, with only running water from the tap...


    Benjamin understood what she meant.


    He slowly released her and whispered, "I''m going to smoke a cigarette!"


    Madelyn raised her eyes. "Smoke less. I''ve been seeing you with cigarettes all the timetely."


    ...


    "You care about me?"


    ...


    Madelyn turned around and looked at him with a smile. "Benjamin, we''re not enemies. We still have 9


    months to spend together. It''s not strange for me to care about you!"


    Benjamin''s gaze was deep.


    Suddenly, he picked her up and ced her on the countertop.


    The cold marble contrasted sharply with his hot body in front of her. Madelyn couldn''t resist, so she


    leaned against his shoulder and softly protested, "Benjamin, not here!"


    Benjamin held her chin and fed himself to her.


    Their lips intertwined in a passionate and frenzied kiss.


    Madelyn initially resisted, struggling desperately. But Benjamin seemed determined to make love right


    there. After a long time, he finally tamed her, and she surrendered, clinging tightly to his neck.


    A faint sound of a zipper being pulled down, and hepletely possessed her...


    He suppressed his desires for a long time, and one time was not enough. Throughout the afternoon, he


    satisfied himself with her. Madelyn felt that Benjamin had gone crazy. When it was over, both of them


    felt a bit dazed...


    She fell asleep exhausted and woke up in the middle of the night.


    There was no one beside her.


    Madelyn opened her eyes and stared into the darkness in a daze...


    They had crossed the line.


    The original agreement was not to have any further rtionship within a year, but because of his


    actions, this agreement became null and void. As for Madelyn, despite her harsh words, she knew she


    had a soft spot. Otherwise, she wouldn''t have let him stay overnight tonight.


    Benjamin...


    Did she want to start over with him?


    Madelyn decided to leave the answer to time!


    In the following days, Benjamin no longer appeared frequently in front of her. He would meet her once


    a week, maybe at his vi or going out for a meal...


    Time passed unnoticed, and before they knew it, it was already Christmas.


    Cam still had yet to return from Vadiff.


    Madelyn flew there twice, staying for two or three days each time. She also visited Esrand every month


    to check on Nics''s business. Nics was doing really well!


    Madelyn felt that life was quite beautiful.


    She made an appointment to have dinner with Vivian at a famous restaurant.


    Vivian was already eight or nine months pregnant, about to give birth. She always had someone


    apanying her wherever she went. Grayson treated her very well, and their rtionship with


    Grayson''s parents also improved.


    Madelyn filled a bowl of nourishing soup for her.


    Vivian pinched her cheeks and said, "Look how chubby I''ve be! Madelyn, Grayson''s not here


    today, and I want to eat something spicy. Let''s order some spicy cuisine for delivery!"


    Madelyn nced at her. "Ordering delivery here, are you kidding me?"


    Vivian held her nose and drank the soup.


    After finishing it, she stuck out her tongue and started gossiping, "You know, Eloise and Daniel really


    broke up! Daniel made things so difficult for that little mistress that even if she wanted to work in the


    entertainment sector in the future, no one would hire her; she couldn''t even deliver food!"


    Madelyn wasn''t surprised. She smiled and said, "Daniel has always been like that!"


    But she was happy for Eloise. She was indeed a pure girl and deserved someone better.


    Thinking about Daniel, Madelyn felt a bit ufortable in her stomach.


    She told Vivian, "Stay here for a while. I''ll go to the restroom!"


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    Vivian teased her, "Feeling nauseous? Could you be pregnant?"


    Madelyn reflected on how Benjamin was always cautious despite his desire for more. She didn''t have


    to be concerned about it. "Impossible!"


    Vivian didn''t take it seriously, either.


    Madelyn went to the restroom, still feeling ufortable. She retched a few times.


    And right then, an acquaintance appeared, none other than Elizabeth, who had been missing for a long


    time.


    Elizabeth looked extremely thin, but she was dressed ostentatiously.


    She sneered at Madelyn and said, "What a coincidence!"


    Madelyn looked at her in the mirror, straightened up slowly, and wiped her hands. "It is quite a


    coincidence! Are you here to have dinner?"


    Elizabeth seemed a little ufortable.


    Since the Mason family found out the truth and Jackson rejected her, kicking her and the child out, she


    had nowhere to go. She wanted to return to the piano circle, but no one wanted her. She tried to find a


    decent man to rely on but couldn''t find one.


    She was just making do now.


    Elizabeth was jealous of Madelyn. She knew that Madelyn''s business was doing well and also learned


    that Madelyn had even returned to the Ryan family. Her uncle Keh was sought after by countless


    women.


    Rumors had it that Keh spoiled Madelyn to the heavens!


    Elizabeth''s mouth twitched. "Your happiness won''tst long!"


    Madelyn didn''t argue with her. She just asked, "What about the child?"


    Elizabeth''s face contorted. "Sent to an orphanage!"


    An orphanage...


    Madelyn knew what that meant-it meant that child became an orphan!


    Elizabeth was genuinely heartless!


    Elizabeth''s heart trembled, but she tried her best to appear indifferent. She applied more makeup in


    front of the mirror, but the powder wouldn''t adhere properly. The powder might fall off, so she packed


    on more.


    Finally, Elizabeth gritted her teeth. "That''s his fate! Who made him not Jackson''s child?"


    Madelyn couldn''t say anything.


    At that moment, a man with yellow teeth and arge gold chain came out of the men''s restroom. When


    he saw Elizabeth, he hugged her and teased her, "You''ve gone to the restroom several times during


    the meal. Did you have a dder leak?"


    Elizabeth yfully responded with a few vulgar remarks.


    However, when she left, her face looked unpleasant.


    Whether one''s life is good or not, only they know.


    Madelyn sighed.


    She wanted to tell Vivian about this, but the thought of that man with yellow teeth made her nauseous,


    and she leaned against the sink, retching for a while before finally looking up uneasily.


    She was a mature woman, and even if she was careless, she noticed something was wrong.


    Her period was dyed by 10 days.


    Madelyn gently ced her hand on her abdomen. Did she have a child here, Benjamin''s flesh and


    blood?

 Chapter 213 Cruelly Torture William

    Chapter 213 Cruelly Torture William


    Chapter 213 Cruelly Torture William


    Madelyn had a paleplexion.


    She recalled that it was probably e night when Benjamin suddenly felt aroused.


    At that time, she was half-asleep and unguarded.


    It seemed that he had forgotten about precautions!


    ...


    Vivian came over, holding her belly, and saw Madelyn''s dazed expression. She immediately guessed


    what had happened and asked hoarsely, "What will you do?"


    Madelyn sshed cold water on her face.


    She said, "I''m not feeling well. I''m going to the hospital."


    In the afternoon, Madelyn went to the hospital and got an appointment for blood tests.


    Half an hourter, the results confirmed her suspicion-she was six weeks pregnant.


    Madelyn sat in the long corridor of the hospital, gently stroking her abdomen. There was really a baby


    of her and Benjamin inside.


    Although it was an ident, Madelyn wanted this child.


    And she wanted to tell Benjamin the child belonged to both of them. No matter their rtionship as


    adults, she had no reason to let the child grow up without a father or mother.


    Madelyn dialed Benjamin''s phone number.


    The call went through, and after a few rings, he answered gently, "What''s wrong?"


    Madelyn clenched her throat.


    She whispered, "Benjamin, I''m pregnant!"


    There was silence on the other end for a few seconds. Benjamin was probably surprised too, but he


    quickly regained hisposure and said, "Wait for me there, I''lle right away."


    Madelyn responded with an "Mmm."


    After hanging up the phone, she looked at the test report for a long time.


    ...


    Benjamin arrived less than half an hourter.


    As he approached her, he slowed down and gazed intensely at her. His eyes were different from usual,


    filled with pure tenderness...


    Madelyn also looked at him quietly.


    After a long while, he squatted in front of her and gently held her hands.


    It was winter, and Madelyn''s hands were a bit cold. He warmed her hands before speaking, his voice


    hoarse, "Madelyn, let''s get married!"


    He didn''t wait for Madelyn to answer but embraced her and left the hospital.


    Once they got into the car, Madelyn said, "I want to go back to the apartment!"


    Benjamin nodded and lightly stepped on the elerator.


    Around Christmas time, Gredax often had some light snow, adding a touch of romance to the sky.


    He drove slowly, and what should have been a 30-minute journey took a full 50 minutes.


    Madelyn wasn''t feeling well, so she went home and slept.


    But Benjamin didn''t leave.


    He had Paisley bring over some documents, and he worked in the apartment. He also had some light


    food delivered from home... He patiently and tenderly waited for her to wake up.


    Madelyn slept for a long time and didn''t wake up until nine o''clock in the evening.


    Benjamin heard movement and came in from outside. In the warm and cozy apartment, he took off his


    coat and was wearing only a shirt and trousers, looking incredibly handsome.


    Madelyn got up and had a quiet dinner with him.


    She said quietly when they were almost done eating, "Let''s name the baby Everest. It can be used for


    either a boy or a girl."


    Everest...


    Benjamin reached out and touched her face. "That sounds nice! Let''s call the baby Everest!"


    Madelyn continued eating.


    When they finished, she finally decided, "Let''s register our marriage first. We can have the wedding


    after the baby is born. It''ll be in autumn, and I like autumn."


    Whatever she said, he agreed.


    Maybe it was because of the snow or because she was pregnant, this night was gentle.


    Madelyn held a cup of hot milk and watched the snow outside.


    Benjamin sat on the small couch, dealing with his work. He knew he had a lot to doter, but once he


    finished his current case, he would take a break to apany Madelyn during childbirth.


    It was their first child, so they had to be careful.


    At that moment, his phone rang, and he saw that it was William calling.


    Late at night, the sound of a ringing phone was incredibly piercing.


    Without avoiding Madelyn, Benjamin answered, "Mr. Bet, what''s the matter?"


    Because of earlier events, their families'' connection had grown more fragile and less intimate than


    previously. However, Benjamin was gratful for William, so they were considered close.


    William found it difficult to speak, "Ben, the second trial is in half a month. I hope you can go there three


    days in advance tomunicate with thewyers."


    Benjamin smiled and replied, "We canmunicate over the phone, and we can even have video


    calls!"


    William was somewhat displeased, "Ben, it will only take up three days of your time!"


    Benjamin honestly told him, "Madelyn is pregnant! Besides taking care of her, I also need to visit the


    Ryan family in Vadiff! Mr. Bet, I hope you understand."


    William was stunned...


    Was Madelyn pregnant?


    He had always thought that Madelyn and Ben wouldn''t end up finally, but now they were getting


    married.


    Trembling, William asked, "Did she return to the Ryan family?"


    Benjamin let out a soft "Hmm."


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    William felt a surge of bitterness in his throat. He couldn''t ept that his child with Madeline was


    returning to the Ryan family. It was clear... it was clear that he was Madelyn''s biological father, but she


    stubbornly refused to acknowledge him.


    William hung up the phone in despair...


    ...


    The next day, Benjamin returned to the rks'' mansion.


    Alexander was drinking coffee in the hallway and sneered when he saw his soning back, "Who do


    we have here? It''s our young master! Have you been so busy? We haven''t seen you for half a month!"


    Benjamin sat down, and Alexander threw a cigarette at him.


    "Sorry, I quit smoking!"


    "You quit smoking? Well, the sun rises in the west!"


    ...


    Alexander didn''t believe him.


    Benjamin casually looked upstairs, "Where''s mother and Eloise? I have something important to


    announce!"


    Just then, Brianna and Eloise came downstairs.


    Brianna had a sorrowful look; she didn''t care about anything other than holding her grandchild.


    Benjamin calmly spoke, "Madelyn is pregnant!"


    As soon as he finished speaking, Alexander eximed and threw the cigarette box in his hand.


    Meanwhile, Brianna happily worshipped all the gods and Buddhas she could imagine!


    Alexander pretended to be unhappy.


    He snorted, "Look at what you''re capable of! Shouldn''t you go propose?"


    Benjamin carefully listed some requirements.


    Alexander became furious when he heard them, "You have the nerve to suggest these trivial things?


    Are you here to discuss business or to get married? Let your mother handle everything properly! You''re


    going to marry only this woman for the rest of your life, so how can you show sincerity without draining


    your bank ount?"


    Alexander had foresight.


    Besides his admiration and fondness for Madelyn, there was another reason why he supported the


    marriage. Now that Madelyn was a member of the Ryan family, their alliance would create plenty of


    opportunities for cooperation between the two families.


    This marriage involved the feelings of the younger generation and the interests of both sides.


    He issued amand, and Brianna happily prepared for it.


    Benjamin didn''t hesitate, either. If he married Madelyn, all his assets would belong to her.


    He sat there drinking coffee and couldn''t help but discuss it with his mother asionally. Alexander


    watched, sighing softly, "Finally, it feels like having a real family."


    As for the wedding, Alexander also agreed to wait until after the baby''s birth.


    Having a wedding while pregnant was too rushed and exhausting. How much hardship would his


    precious grandchild have to endure?


    No... they had to wait until after the birth!


    ...


    Alexander took Benjamin to Vadiff to propose marriage.


    Keh didn''t make it easy for them, but despite the difficulties, both sides eventually became inws,


    so Keh still showed some mercy.


    Alexander had a smile on his face, but he muttered countless curses in his heart.


    They said Keh was a smiling tiger, and he finally experienced it firsthand today!


    Alexander gave his son a fierce re.


    Benjamin had thick skin. With his good looks and silver tongue, he made the female members of the


    Ryan family happy and then went to find Madelyn...


    While Alexander and Keh discussed the wedding ns, they inevitably discussed other matters.


    Just as the conversation got deeper, the butler came over with a severe expression, "Sir, there''s a Mr.


    William here to visit. He ims... to be Ms. Green''s biological father!"


    Upon hearing this, Keh set down his cup.


    He smiled, "Didn''t my brother-inw get buried in the ground? Could it be that he''s heard some good


    news and returned from the dead?"


    His words were sharp, and Alexander coughed lightly, praying for William silently.


    Keh let William in.


    A momentter, William arrived with Madame Bet, carrying some gifts.


    Keh smiled, "What brings the great artist to my humble abode today?"


    William was always embarrassed in front of him.


    Usually, he wouldn''t dare to step into the Ryan family''s manor, but today he had to fight for himself.


    After much consideration, he spoke, "Ben and Madelyn''s marriage has been arranged. My mother and


    I have only one request: Madelyn goes to the rk family from the Bet family, and we will take


    care of the dowry! If they have a second child in the future, we hope the child will... bear the Bet


    surname!"


    Alexander couldn''t stand to listen to it anymore!


    But he remained silent and let Keh speak openly.


    Keh was usually gentle and cultured, but that was just a facade. In front of William, he didn''t need


    to hide anything. He immediately became furious, "Bullshit! What does the Ryan family''s child have to


    do with you, William?"


    William took out a DNA test report.


    "Madelyn is indeed my and Madeline''s child, and no one can change that!" his voice was husky.


    Keh sneered.


    Pointing at William, he spoke sarcastically, "How much is a DNA test worth? William, let me ask you...


    have you spent a dime on Madelyn? Have you ever held her as a child? It was Samuel and Cam


    who raised her. At the wedding, Madelyn will address Cam as ''mother'' and you don''t even qualify to


    attend!"


    "What kind of father are you? Madelyn''s true father is lying next to Madeline in the grave, while you


    sleep with other women. After betraying my sister, you immediately got married! Now you want to


    be Madelyn''s father? Where do such good things exist in this world?"


    ...


    William couldn''t argue back.


    It was a misunderstanding that Madeline thought he had slept with Constance. But nothing had


    happened!


    Madeline left impulsively.


    It wasn''t until after he married Constance that he found out Madeline was pregnant.


    He knew nothing about it.


    With a cigarette between his fingers, Keh pointed at him and spoke with a sinister tone, "Fate has


    made you barren!"


    His sister Madeline, born to a prestigious family, was willing to marry a poor boy. But the reality was


    more exciting than the stories-his sister was betrayed by the poor boy!


    That unfaithful man lived in blissful harmony with his wicked wife for over 20 years!


    Ha!


    Recognize his daughter? What a joke!


    Keh spoke without leaving any room for regret and didn''t need to. What did William lose? He didn''t


    lose anything, but Madeline died of depression, and Keh lost his beloved sister.


    Alexander stood by silently.


    William sought his help, but Alexander had a clear mind and could only apologize.


    William had indeed done favors for the rk family, but over the years, the rk family had more or


    less repaid him. Furthermore, when Eloise fell into the water and was rescued, she talked in her sleep


    at night, saying that Eleanor pushed her in.


    Children''s nonsense, coupled with William''s loss of fertility.


    There were some things that Alexander and his wife couldn''t say.


    At this point, Madelyn and the baby in her belly were more important. Ben''s willingness to help with that


    William left disappointed.


    As he walked out of the Ryan family''s manor, he looked up at the sky, "Madeline, you still haven''t


    forgiven me, and you''re still punishing me!"

 Chapter 214 Please Dont Go

    Chapter 214 Please Don''t Go


    Chapter 214 Please Don''t Go


    Benjamin saw Madelyn in the rear courtyard.


    The bedroom was a cozy shade of pale pink, approximately 50 square meters, and tastefully


    decorated. Keh had prepared it for her.


    The heating was turned up in the bedroom, making it very warm.


    Madelyn was asleep on the sofa, with only a nket covering her tiny belly.


    Snowy curled up at her feet, pretending to be asleep.


    Benjamin entered, and Snowy opened its eyes, giving him a quick nce before closing them again,


    treating him as if he were air.


    Benjamin leaned in and kissed her deeply.


    Madelyn woke up.


    Benjamin kissed her for a while before lying beside her, his voice soft, "I used to get sad when you


    treated me cruelly. But seeing you like this now only intrigues me. I just want to tease you!"


    Madelyn muttered, "You''re shameless!"


    Benjamin smiled, wrapped his arms around her waist, and told her not to move.


    Feeling his touch on her thigh, Madelyn stopped moving. She couldn''t have sexual intercourse during


    the first three months of pregnancy and didn''t want to provoke him!


    Benjamin pressed his forehead against hers and whispered, "Madelyn, we are about to be legally


    married."


    Madelyn responded indifferently.


    She smiled softly, touching his beautiful brows and eyes with her thin fingers. "It''s to give our child legal


    status, but you must still prove yourself."


    She said it casually, and how could he not understand?


    In fact, Madelyn had not entirely entrusted herself to him yet. Perhaps it was due to too many


    disappointments, so she couldn''t believe he could bring her happiness.


    "Close your eyes!" he kissed her eyebrows and eyes, finding them inexplicably beautiful.


    Madelyn smiled slightly and closed her eyes.


    Since they were preparing to get their marriage certificate, and both sets of parents had met, she did


    not need to continue being cold towards him, as it would only appear pretentious!


    Benjamin took out a thin chain; the pendant was a diamond ring.


    A whopping 52 carats!


    When Madelyn opened her eyes, her fair neck had an additional ne; she could feel it by lightly


    touching it with her hand!


    ...


    "Do you like it?"


    ...


    Benjamin leaned closer and pressed against her cheek. "Mrs. rk, I''ll help you put it on during the


    wedding!"


    Madelyn leaned softly against him.


    Benjamin felt fond of her and couldn''t help but be tender. He lightly kissed her lips.


    This kiss was touching.


    Perhaps because they were about to be parents, there was a different kind of tenderness


    between them.


    Madelyn''s face turned slightly red.


    Benjamin smiled mysteriously and gently stroked her delicate cheek with one hand, teasing her with a


    lightugh... For the first time, they didn''t do what they used to do, but it felt lovely and intimate.


    ...


    They obtained their marriage certificate in Vadiff.


    With the presence of their elders as witnesses, they became a legally married couple and held a


    banquet at the Ryan family that night.


    After the banquet, Alexander left with his wife and daughter, while Benjamin stayed with Madelyn for a


    few days before returning to Gredax.


    After returning to Gredax, Madelyn moved into Benjamin''s vi.


    Benjamin treated her well, and Alexander and his wife often visited. Eloise also frequently came over


    for dinner...


    Not long after, Benjamin took a trip to Monatiz.


    In those three or four days, it would be a lie to say that Madelyn had no thoughts. But she understood


    Benjamin. As long as he had no emotional entanglement with Eleanor, she didn''t want to make


    everyone unhappy because of the past events.


    On the day Benjamin returned from Monatiz.


    Nics came to the vi, apanied by Madelyn''s secretary. They were considered people around


    Madelyn and knew about her pregnancy and marriage to Benjamin.


    After discussing official matters, Nics looked at her belly.


    He snorted lightly, "The baby will definitely be as silly as you! But it should be pretty!"


    Madelynughed and cried at his words.


    She reached out and touched her belly. She really liked this baby, and it didn''t trouble her.


    Nics looked at her motherly appearance and felt a toothache. He threw a small box from his pocket


    to her, saying, "This is for the baby! I bought it with my money, not my father''s."


    After saying that, he touched his nose and thought it was too cheesy, then turned and left.


    The secretary smiled and left as well.


    Madelyn opened the box and found a loose diamond inside.


    A 2-carat pink diamond, very precious.


    Nics probably spent all the money he earned buying it. Madelynughed and scolded him lightly, but


    her eyes reddened...


    Her emotions were still somewhat stirred when she heard the sound of a car in the courtyard.


    Benjamin had returned.


    In the winter, he wore a suit with a coat, looking incredibly handsome.


    A servant helped him with his luggage and then stepped back.


    Benjamin removed his coat and walked towards Madelyn, taking the box from her hand. "I saw Nics


    at the door just now. Did he give this to you?"


    Madelyn didn''t hide it and nodded.


    Benjamin looked at it for a while, his gaze deep. "He''s quite thoughtful!"


    Madelyn knew he was jealous again.


    She stood up and helped him hang up his coat, casually asking, "When is the third court hearing?"


    Benjamin sat down, took a sip of water from her cup, and smiled slightly. "It''s basically set! Austin will


    go for the third court hearing!"


    Madelyn was surprised.


    Does that mean he doesn''t need to go to Monatiz anymore?


    She did mind Eleanor, so it was a lie to say that she wasn''t happy with the news, but she still remained


    reserved and just made a faint sound of agreement.


    How could Benjamin not know what she was thinking?


    He didn''t mention her cunning, just hugged her delicate body from behind while she hung up the


    clothes. "It''s been almost three months, right? The doctor said it''s OK after three months..."


    Madelyn blushed.


    Since she became pregnant, they didn''t make love.


    She didn''t really want to do it, but she knew Benjamin had needs. Many nights, he would uncover the


    nket and go take a cold shower in the bathroom by himself.


    Madelyn changed the subject. "Vivian''s child is getting baptized tomorrow. Are youing with me?"


    Benjamin rested his chin on her shoulder.


    He deliberately breathed gently by her ear. "Of course, I''ll go! Mrs. rk is so popr, I''m afraid if I''m


    not careful, there will be some cats and dogs vying for your attention!"


    Madelyn was a little angry.


    He let go of her and chuckled. "I''ll take a shower. Dinner will be ready soon!"


    Footsteps came from behind, but Madelyn couldn''t help but look up...


    They hadn''t seen each other for four days!


    Benjamin looked at her on the stairs with a smile that seemed mocking...


    ...


    Grayson and Vivian didn''t have a grand wedding, but after Vivian giving birth to an 8-pound son, the


    Wyatt family made it up to her and even gave her a vi.


    Madelyn looked at the baby in Vivian''s arms and felt happy for her.


    It had only been a few days since Vivian gave birth, and her figure hadn''t recovered yet. She was a


    little chubby.


    She gently cooed to the baby while looking at Benjamin socializing on the other side and asked


    Madelyn softly, "How are you two getting along?"


    Madelyn yed with the baby and smiled faintly. "People''s hearts are made of flesh! When we got


    married, I did indeed only want to give the child a legal status. But over time, everything softens! I want


    to give it another try!"


    Vivian didn''t say anything.


    At this moment, Benjamin came over and pointed at Vivian''s baby. "Can I hold him?"


    Vivian was tired from holding the baby and immediately handed him over.


    It was the first time Benjamin held a baby, and the softness of the little baby made him feel soft too. His


    and Madelyn''s child would be born in another half a year.


    Surely Everest would be even cuter than this little boy!


    Benjamin held the baby for a long time, and when he looked up, he gazed tenderly at Madelyn.


    Vivian finally understood why Madelyn said people''s hearts are made of flesh! With a gaze like


    Benjamin''s, which woman could resist? It''s enough to melt anyone!


    ...


    Benjamin drove back to the vi.


    He parked the car in the underground parking lot and unbuckled his seatbelt. Unable to resist, he


    reached out and touched Madelyn''s belly... The baby was only three months old and had no


    movements yet.


    Initially, he wanted to just touch the baby, but as he continued to feel, things took a different turn.


    Benjamin ttened the passenger seat and trapped Madelyn underneath him, gently kissing her.


    He carefully avoided her belly, afraid of harming the baby.


    Initially, he had intended to stop at just a touch.


    But when the clothes fell to the ground, he saw her body became even more delicate and fair after


    bing pregnant. He couldn''t resist, and they finally made love in the car... Throughout the process,


    he was gentle, constantly asking her how she felt.


    After enduring for too long, he satisfied himself twice.


    In the end, tears glistened in Madelyn''s eyes, and she looked translucent.


    Although Benjamin couldn''t fully satisfy himself, tonight felt different from before. At times, it was pretty


    interesting...


    After that night, they resumed their sexual life.


    About twice a week.


    When Madelyn was seven months pregnant, Benjamin stopped making love with her.


    Her body was ufortable, so Benjamin brought Cam from Vadiff to apany Madelyn during


    childbirth.


    On that day, Madelyn went to the Music Center.


    When she turned back, Benjamin was there to pick her up. Madelyn softly said, "Everything has been


    arranged. I''lle back after giving birth! I didn''t expect Nics to change so quickly. He can almost


    handle everything on his own."


    If it were another day, Benjamin would definitely tease Nics.


    But today, he didn''t say anything.


    Madelyn found it strange and smiled, asking, "What''s wrong with you?"


    Benjamin stopped the car at an intersection, facing a red light. After thinking momentarily, he said, "I


    still need to make a trip to Monatiz for that case. Mr. Bet called this morning and said he couldn''t


    trust Austin. Madelyn... I''ll go there once more!"


    Madelyn blinked gently.


    For some time, she finally said, "Is it that he''s worried, or is it that you''re worried?"


    Benjamin didn''t say anything.

    She was pregnant, and he couldn''t argue with her.


    Madelyn also restrained herself and spoke softly, "Benjamin, you promised me that you wouldn''t go to


    Monatiz again! Besides, the baby is already seven months old. If you''re just in the country, it''s OK for


    you to go anywhere; but if you go to Monatiz and something happens, you need 24 hours at least to


    Benjamin knew she was unhappy.


    He was willing to coax her, saying, "The check-ups say the baby is well! I''ll only go for three days. Once


    the trial ends, I''ll rush back immediately... I won''t take on any more cases for now, and I''ll focus on


    being with you during childbirth, alright?"


    Madelyn knew he had made up his mind.


    She felt ufortable and asked softly, "When will you go?"


    "Tomorrow morning!"


    Madelyn was visibly startled.


    Then she turned her head and looked quietly out of the car window, not saying anything more...


    Benjamin packed his bags by himself at night and tried to cheer her up.


    Madelyn couldn''t feel happy.


    When they went to bed, she turned her back to him and couldn''t sleep peacefully throughout the night.


    When daylight broke, Benjamin got up lightly and kissed Madelyn. His voice was hoarse as he said,


    "I''m leaving!"


    Madelyn woke up from her dream.


    She remembered the blood in her dream and was scared!


    She held onto Benjamin''s waist, feeling the slight movements in her belly. Her voice trembled as she


    spoke, "Benjamin, don''t go. I feel ufortable!"


    Benjamin gently touched her belly.


    Thinking that she was upset, he didn''t take it seriously and coaxed her, "It''s just because today is hot!


    Let Cam apany you! Be good, I''ll only be gone for three days!"


    Madelyn held onto him tightly, whispering, "Benjamin, I have a feeling that something is going to


    happen. I really don''t feel well... The baby inside me is kicking so forcefully!"


    Benjamin smiled.


    He bent down and kissed her belly, saying, "Is the baby misbehaving?"


    Madelyn gently rubbed his scalp, "It has never been like this before... Please don''t go, OK? I''m afraid


    something bad will happen!"


    Benjamin stood straight and kissed her lips, "If I don''t leave now, I''ll miss the flight! Be good!"


    Madelyn refused to let him go.


    He gently pried open her fingers, smiling tenderly, "You just like a child. I promise I''lle back safely


    after three days!"


    Then he left with his luggage.


    Madelyn remained seated, feeling ice-cold in the summer weather.


    She wanted to go back to sleep, but her body felt hot and ufortable... Madelyn took her phone


    downstairs, calling Cam, "Mom!"


    Cam and the nanny had just returned from grocery shopping and were chatting happily outside...


    When Cam heard Madelyn calling her, she was about to respond.


    Suddenly, a loud explosion sounded outside, followed by flying debris and countless ss shards.


    Steel bars and concrete filled the air...


    At ten o''clock in the morning, a gas pipeline suffered a severe explosion on the main road of a high-end


    vi area in Gredax.


    Trees were split in half, scattered all over the ce.


    The road was turned upside down andpletely blocked...


    Madelyn was heading downstairs.


    A powerful shockwave hit her, mming her body against the wall behind her. Her waist felt as if it had


    shattered for a moment, but in that critical moment, she instinctively protected her belly with her hands.


    Everest...

 Chapter 215 Everest Is Coming Early

    Chapter 215 Everest Is Coming Early


    Chapter 215 Everest Is Coming Early


    A strong impact left Madelyn momentarily dizzy.


    As she regained herposure, she realized how badly she hurt...


    The baby seemed to sense the danger and kept moving restlessly. Madelyn could even feel the baby


    descending rapidly.


    Oh no, the baby is going to be born prematurely!


    "Mom!... Piper!" Madelyn called out their names, barely holding on.


    ...


    "Madelyn!"


    ...


    Both Cam and Piper were injured to varying degrees, covered in blood. Piper had passed out.


    Cam had a 20-centimeter-long wound on her leg.


    It was deep and bleeding profusely!


    She was pinned under a heavy board, unable to move. Looking at Madelyn helplessly, shey on the


    ground, hoarsely calling out, "Help... Someone, please... Save my child!"


    But the entire area had exploded, and everyone was trapped or missing.


    No one could hear her cries for help!


    Madelyn fell into deep despair.


    She knew that this baby couldn''t be saved if she couldn''t get to the hospital in time. Her body wouldn''t


    hold on much longer...


    Where is her phone?


    She endured the immense pain and began searching.


    She needed to call Benjamin; his flight should have stayed on.


    The phone was five steps away from Madelyn.


    This short distance between life and death caused her body to tremble with every move. It was too


    painful... She couldn''t stand up and only crawled on the ground, using her palms to slowly make her


    way toward the phone.


    When she descended the steps, the edges scraped against her belly.


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    Madelyn was in excruciating pain.


    Her whole body was drenched in sweat, and dust stuck to her sweaty hair and face... She could hardly


    be recognized, but she continued crawling toward the phone with strength.


    Just two steps away, she ran out of energy.


    When her fingertips touched the phone, she gasped for breath, turned her body to face upward, and


    ced her belly on top.


    Trembling, Madelyn dialed the emergency number.


    Number 1 was Benjamin''s mobile number...


    The call went through, but there was only a cold, automated voice.


    "Sorry, the number you dialed is powered off!"


    The surroundings seemed quiet to Madelyn, with only the continuous sound of the ringing phone.


    Sorry, powered off...


    ...


    She mechanically hung up.


    She didn''t have time to feel sorrow; she wanted herself to survive, the baby to survive, and her mother


    to survive. Nothing was more important than staying alive.


    Number 2 was Keh''s mobile number.


    The call connected, but Keh was probably in a meeting and unaware of the situation in Gredax.


    With her whole body trembling, Madelyn mustered all her strength and cried out, "Uncle, save me!"


    There was a brief silence on the other end.


    Then Keh spoke urgently, "Madelyn, calm down. Tell me what''s happening."


    Madelyn''s consciousness was already fading, but she summoned herst strength and whispered,


    "There was an explosion... Uncle..."


    The phone slipped from her grasp...


    Keh, in tears, stood in the meeting room.


    His secretary, who was his confidant, immediately found out and whispered, "There was a gas


    explosion in a high-end residential area in Gredax, and all the roads are blocked. The situation is


    severe!"


    Keh held onto the phone tightly,posed himself, and gave instructions, "Prepare a private jet. I


    need to go to Gredax immediately! Also, mobilize helicopters to fly into the Cardiff Community. I need


    them to be fast... Don''t waste a single second!"


    His sister, Madeline, had left him.


    Her child, the Ryan family''s child, could not face any more idents!


    With red eyes, Keh left the meeting room.


    No one had ever seen him so distraught!


    Keh arrived in Gredax, where his people had already joined forces with Alexander''s people,


    rushing Madelyn to the hospital as quickly as possible.


    The delivery room lit up with lights as doctors and nurses were busy saving lives.


    "The fetus is at 7 months, definitely premature."


    "At present, we cannot perform a cesarean section; we can only proceed with a natural birth."


    "Whether the delivery will go smoothly depends on the fate of the baby. Mr. rk and Mrs. rk, I


    have to warn you, the baby''s condition is not good. Even if the baby survives, the chances are very


    low! The mother... also faces certain risks!"


    ...


    The doctor said so much, implying that Madelyn would suffer less if they didn''t keep the baby.


    After all, with her injuries, giving birth was unbearable!


    Keh arrived and overheard all this.


    Alexander saw him approach and seemed to have found someone to consult. He exined the


    situation to Keh. Alexander intended to save Madelyn, even though they were reluctant to let go of


    the baby. But Madelyn was a living person!


    "We have no right to make Madelyn sacrifice so much for the rk family!" Alexander said in a hoarse


    voice.


    Keh''s facial muscles trembled, and he scanned the surroundings before asking, "Where is


    Benjamin? His wife is in the hospital giving birth, where is he?"


    Alexander forcefully pounded the wall!


    He didn''t know about this before; Paisley had juste and said Benjamin had left for overseas this


    morning. He felt regret beyond words!


    Alexander regretted allowing Benjamin to help handle that case in the first ce!


    Keh didn''t ask further; he could guess what had happened.


    He didn''t consider the issue of keeping or sacrificing the baby. He went straight into the delivery room.


    His action broke the rules, but he didn''t care. He had to be by Madelyn''s side.


    Madelyn was already awake, lying on the delivery bed, enduring the pain ofbor.


    Her clothes werepletely soaked.


    She looked like she had been pulled out of the water.


    Keh approached, leaned down, and gently pressed his face against hers. Thefort of blood ties


    was something no one else could give. Madelyn''s tears rolled down her cheeks. "Uncle!"


    Keh restrained his emotions and softly conveyed the doctor''s words to her.


    Madelyn looked up at the bright overheadmp, her slender fingers resting on her belly. This baby had


    been with her for seven months, and she had already decided to name it Everest. She held onto the


    hope of a safe delivery.


    "Uncle, I want to keep her!"


    She wanted to give birth to her baby.


    Keh had anticipated her decision; she was too much like Madeline in temperament.


    Keh, alwaysposed, spoke with a slight tremor in his voice, "I''m waiting outside for you. Give


    birth to this baby!"


    He gently touched her head.


    Then he straightened his body and walked out calmly.


    He believed in Madelyn. She would definitely deliver this baby safely...


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t let anyone apany her duringbor.


    Because the person who should have been with her wasn''t there.


    When she reached eight centimeters dted, the pain made her lose consciousness. Benjamin''s face


    seemed to appear before her eyes.


    Benjamin... Benjamin...


    She repeated the name in her heart, but with each repetition, the pain intensified.


    Amid that pain, she remembered their first encounter, remembered him whispering in her ear to wake


    up early in the morning, remembered him holding her while ying the piano on a snowy night, and


    remembered him earnestly saying, "Madelyn, I want to spend my life with you!"


    Benjamin... Benjamin...


    With every call in her heart, her feelings for him diminished a little.


    ...


    A weak cry sounded, and a new life came to the world-Everest.


    Madelyny motionless on the delivery bed.


    There was a faint smile on her lips, and she recalled the final conversation between her and


    Benjamin...


    "I''m really ufortable... The baby is kicking so hard in my belly!"


    "Is the baby misbehaving?"


    "The baby has never been like this before!... Can''t you stay? I''m afraid something might happen!"


    "If I don''t leave now, I''ll miss my flight! Be good!"


    ...


    He gently untangled her fingers, one by one, with a tender smile. "Why are you acting like a child? I''ll


    be back in three days for sure!"


    ...


    Madelyn gently closed her eyes.

    Chapter 216 Let''s Get Divorced


    Madelyn gave birth to a baby girl.


    Everest, weighing less than four kilograms, was immediately ced in an incubator after birth.


    Alexander and his wife, and Keh only nced briefly at Everes before rushing to see Madelyn.


    Madelyn had been moved to a VIP ward, lying there weakly, seemingly asleep.


    Keh approached her and gently ced her hands under the nket.


    He didn''t say a word, just sat by the bedside, staring at Madelyn intently, afraid she would wake up


    without anyone caring for her.


    ...


    Outside, Eloise had been on the phone for 16 hours.


    She made hundreds of calls, all to Benjamin.


    Finally, he answered...


    At that moment, Benjamin was in Monatiz. He went straight to court when he got off the ne and


    didn''t even turn on his phone.


    After winning thewsuit in Dimont, the court immediately announced Benjamin''s victory. William and


    his wife thanked him and invited him to their home.


    Benjamin politely declined.


    While the two sides were still pulling and tugging at each other, Benjamin took out his phone and


    smiled. "I guess I''m being pestered at home!"


    He turned on his phone, expecting to see many missed work calls as usual.


    But when he unlocked it, his phone started buzzing like crazy.


    He had over 500 missed calls, all from Gredax.


    Eloise called again, and he quickly answered, "Eloise, what happened?"


    Eloise''s voice was choked up with emotion. "Brother, please return as soon as possible!" The vi... it


    blew up. Madelyn gave birth to Everest early, and the baby is in critical condition... Madelyn had been


    inbor for 16 hours... sobbing... Why did you go to Monatiz? Why did you leave Madelyn alone at


    home? Do you know how she looked when she was transported to the hospital... sobbing..."


    Benjamin froze.


    He almost lost the ability to move.


    From wherever they came, the media was eager to interview him at that moment, putting their cameras


    in front of him.


    Benjamin rudely pushed them away.


    He walked out quickly. A car awaited him outside the courthouse to take him to the airport. A bouquet


    of white roses was on the back seat, and he wanted to bring them to Madelyn.


    It could calm her down.


    But deep down, he knew it was over between them.


    Benjamin stumbled his way through the journey!


    ...


    It was 20 hourster when Benjamin saw Madelyn.


    Madelyn was dressed in a hospital gown and stood at the hospital''s neonatal critical care unit entrance,


    peering through the ss at the little infant inside.


    Just two or three days had passed.


    She had be much thinner.


    The clothes hung loosely on her, and from the side, her chin looked sharp, her face norger than a


    palm.


    She had been in good shape before.


    Benjamin''s voice was hoarse as he called out to her, "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn maintained her posture, motionless, but her body stiffened.


    She knew he hade back...


    But so what?


    She didn''t know how to face him. She couldn''t even cry.


    Benjamin strolled towards her.


    He took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders. "You just gave birth to the baby. Standing for too


    long like this will leave a lingering health issue."


    She shrugged off the coat.


    The ck coat fell to the ground...


    Benjamin silently picked it up, and then he saw the little baby in the incubator, lying there wrinkled,


    barely moving, with a paleplexion.


    Madelyn''s voice was very soft. "The doctor said the survival rate is less than ten percent!"


    It pained Benjamin''s heart.


    He held Madelyn''s shoulders. "I''ll..."


    Madelyn turned around and pped him hard, her chest burning with anger. "What will you do? Find a


    way to save her? Where were you earlier?!"


    He endured the p.


    He would instead Madelyn hit him, scold him...


    But after that p, Madelyn fell silent. She stared nkly at Everest because she could only look at her


    for half an hour each day, and the doctors wouldn''t allow it the rest of the time.


    Everest...


    She was even willing to give her life in exchange for Everest''s.


    Benjamin wrapped his coat around her again, but Madelyn tried to remove it, and he held onto her


    tightly.


    "Madelyn! Don''t move!"


    He stared at the baby with the same intensity as she did.


    Everest looked beautiful.


    Like Madelyn, she had delicate eyebrows and a pretty face.


    Madelyncked the strength in his arms, but she felt she should make things clear with him. "Benjamin,


    I only need you when I need you. You''re always busy with Eleanor''s affairs! Panda blood, divorce


    Our child should not be the price for you to fulfill your promises to her.... You didn''t put me first. Why did


    you say you wanted to spend your life with me back then?"


    She calmly said all this.


    But Benjamin felt as if he were being tortured.


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    There were no hysterics from Madelyn. She couldn''t make a scene and didn''t want to quarrel with him.


    She calmly told him, "This is it, Benjamin!"


    "As for the divorce, let''s wait until the baby is better before discussing it. I don''t have the energy to talk


    about those things right now!"


    ...


    Benjamin held her as if he were holding a block of ice.


    At that moment, the blinds came down on the ss.


    Madelyn couldn''t see the baby anymore.


    She turned to face him. "Because of Everest, we have to unavoidably meet again. But Benjamin, don''t


    say those affectionate words to disgust me again!"


    Benjamin''s face turned pale as paper.


    At that moment, Keh came over.


    He had a jacket in his hand, and as soon as he saw Madelyn, he quickly put it on her. "I''ve been


    looking for you everywhere! What are you wearing? What if you catch a cold?''


    Madelyn silently followed him.


    Throughout the encounter, Keh acted as if he had not seen Benjamin. Benjamin called out


    urgently, "Uncle!"


    Keh paused in his footsteps.


    He turned around, a fake smile on his usually elegant face, and delivered a deadly blow with his words,


    "I thought you only recognized Mr. Bet!"


    After saying that, he embraced Madelyn and walked away.


    Benjamin stood in his original spot, slowly clenching his fingers. If you were to ask him about the


    biggest regret of his life, it would be leaving Madelyn and going to Monatiz.


    Alexander approached with his wife and daughter.


    In front of them, Alexander swung his arms, delivering two harsh ps to his son.


    His eyes were red as he said, "You worthless scum!"


    Brianna, teary-eyed, tried to intervene but was pushed aside by Alexander.


    In the bustling hospital, disregarding dignity, Alexander took off his shoes and fiercely struck his only


    son. "Do you know how dangerous it was for your wife at that time? She tried to call you, but your


    phone was off. If she hadn''t called Keh, we wouldn''t have known about the explosion. The


    oue could have been the loss of both mother and child, as well as her mother and the household


    maid, who were severely injured. Where were you? You are the man of the house, where the hell were


    you? Do you know that Madelyn risked her life to give birth to your child for 16 hours? You worthless


    scum... I''m going to beat you to death today!"


    Brianna no longer tried to stop him.


    Eloise was also crying nearby, her voice choked with tears. "Brother, if you don''t love sister-inw, then


    set her free!"


    Benjamin froze.


    Didn''t he love Madelyn?


    He loved her, he was sure he did, but he had abandoned her.


    And now... she didn''t want him anymore!

 Chapter 217 Broken Hands

    Chapter 217 Broken Hands


    Chapter 217 Broken Hands


    Benjamin wanted to see Madelyn, but it took a lot of work.


    Keh had people guarding her.


    The remaining rk family could go to the hospital; only Benjamin was stopped outside. So Benjamin


    went to plead with Keh.


    There was a small meeting room in the hospital.


    Keh sat inside, busy with his work. He had moved everything to Gredax. No matter how busy he


    was, he couldn''t let Madelyn face the current situation alone.


    Benjamin came to beg him to let him see Madelyn.


    Keh pped him a few times, then left Benjamin hanging there.


    Benjamin, such a proud man, had given up his self-esteem and pride, kneeling in front of Keh for


    four or five hours.


    After a long time, Keh looked up and spoke to him.


    Keh''s tone softened, but it was still cold, "Benjamin, begging me is useless! You know it yourself,


    you and Madelyn havee to an end, regardless of whether this child... whether..."


    Keh''s eyes turned red, and he lit a cigarette to calm himself down.


    It took him a while to continue, "Regardless of what happens to the child, you two have no chance! Not


    now, not in the future! No woman can be so generous, unless she''s a fool!"


    How could Benjamin not understand?


    After Madelyn broke up with himst time, he pleaded and begged for a chance to reconcile.


    Everest''s arrival had eased their rtionship.


    In these six or seven months, Madelyn''s attitude towards him had changed from cold to warm and then


    to gentle and considerate. Their short married life was actually pleasing.


    Thinking about these things, Benjamin''s heart ached.


    He lowered his posture and said, "I know, uncle. Now I only ask for a chance to take care of her!"


    Keh sneered, "Are you sure you won''t disgust her?"


    Benjamin felt humiliated.


    Just then, one of Keh''s men came to report, "Mr. Ryan, Mr. Bet and Ms. Bet have gone to


    Ms. Green''s ward and insisted on seeing her! Ms. Green agreed to see them!"


    Keh closed his files and walked out quickly.


    Benjamin followed him.


    ...


    In the ward, Madelyn stood quietly by the window.


    Since giving birth to Everest, she had hardly slept, standing day and night.


    She hoped the doctor would suddenlye and tell her, "The child is out of danger, and you can


    breastfeed her."


    She knew it was wishful thinking but longed for it day and night.


    In just two days, she had be unhealthily thin.


    William brought Eleanor to see her, and when he saw how thin Madelyn had be, he felt guilty,


    "Madelyn, Daddy didn''t mean it. Daddy didn''t know this would happen! Eleanor didn''t expect it either.


    We both want you to be well!"


    Madelyn smiled faintly.


    Want her to be well!?


    Since William appeared, how often had he considered his so-called flesh and blood? But he could still


    say with his mouth that she was his only biological child.


    Madelyn turned around.


    She had lost a lot of weight, but she was still beautiful.


    But there was no light in her eyes; the warm girl from before now had dead eyes.


    Madelyn said calmly, "Do you know what I think of you?"


    William trembled.


    Madelyn said softly, "I used to look up to you, but after a while, I realized you were just an ordinary man


    with your own selfishness! You''re like someone trying to sell garbage to others! Of course, this is just


    my point of view! When I loved Benjamin, I thought Eleanor was garbage. When I stopped loving him, I


    realized Eleanor is not garbage but junk food, something that my husband finds disgusting but still


    delicious!"


    William''s face turned pale.


    Eleanor''s pretty face twisted.


    At that moment, Keh and Benjamin arrived at the door...


    Madelyn''s gaze fell on Benjamin, and she smiled faintly, "Benjamin, take your junk food and get out!


    You two make me sick!"


    Keh rubbed his nose.


    William eximed, "Madelyn, it''s not Eleanor''s fault!"


    Benjamin spoke calmly, "Mr. Bet, you should leave! Don''te here again!"


    Eleanor unwillingly said, "Ben... I don''t believe you don''t have feelings for me! Otherwise, why did you


    leave her and came to Monatiz to help me win thewsuit?"


    William pped her.


    He said sorrowfully, "Ben is doing it out of old affection. How could you think like that?"


    Eleanor wouldn''t give up.


    She was itching for a fight, thinking she could win against Madelyn. She hade today to provoke


    Madelyn.


    But Madelyn didn''t care anymore.


    She threw a bank card at Eleanor and sneered, "Why beat around the bush? Don''t you just want to


    continue seducing Benjamin? There''s over 30,000 dors in there, and right across the street is a five-


    star hotel. Consider this my gift to Benjamin for hiring a prostitute! If you please Benjamin well, maybe


    you can be his wife after we divorce!"


    Eleanor tried to y innocent.


    Madelyn threw the bank card at her, "Now you can take my husband and leave! Get lost!"


    Eleanor looked at Benjamin.


    Benjamin''s face was pale, and he softly uttered, "Get lost!"


    Eleanor was shocked.


    She didn''t expect Benjamin to treat her so coldly. She thought he still had some feelings for her.


    William spoke at the right moment, "Ben, Eleanor..."


    "Get lost!" Benjamin''s voice was colder.


    William was speechless.


    Benjamin was always respectful towards him; how could he... treat him like this?


    Madelyn''s words had crushed Benjamin. He knew she did it on purpose. She knew he didn''t like


    Eleanor, but she still said those hurtful words. She truly wanted a divorce from him.


    He endured the pain in his heart and said to William, "The debts has been repaid. There''s no need for


    us to meet again in the future! I will also tell my father that our two families have no more connections!"


    William waspletely stunned, but he still refused to leave.


    Keh had his men throw them out.


    Outside, with a single nce from Keh, William was pinned to the ground.


    Those hands that used to y the piano were restrained.


    Wearing his leather shoes, Keh stepped on them lightly, applying force slowly...


    His face was cold.


    These hands had once captivated his sister Madeline.


    These hands had once made the young Madelyn admire William.


    But what use were those hands when they belonged to a waste?


    Eleanor screamed, but someone had already tightly covered her mouth... Keh suddenly exerted


    force under his foot.


    William''s hand bones were directly shattered.


    "Your hands for Madelyn''s Achilles tendon, we''re even now! From now on, you and Madelyn are both


    unable to y the piano!"


    Keh looked down from above with a resolute tone, "William, if you or your annoying daughter ever


    appear in front of Madelyn again, I will strike you down! William, you are a useless coward in my eyes!"


    He only thought that when Madeline was young, she had a blind infatuation with William.


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    Fortunately, sheter married Samuel and raised Madelyn well!


    After finishing his brutal act, Keh wiped his hands clean.


    Turning around, he saw a delicate girl covering her mouth, looking frightened.


    Keh recognized her as Benjamin''s sister, Eloise.


    Although Eloise was afraid, she mustered up the courage to step forward and plead on behalf of her


    brother: "Uncle Ryan, can you let my brother take care of Madelyn? Wait... until she recovers, then they


    can get a divorce if necessary!"

    Keh lifted his chin slightly, squinting his eyes.


    After a while, he sneered, "You''re just a little girl who hasn''t grown up yet. Don''t meddle in adult affairs!"


    After saying that, he left with the entourage of bodyguards, showing extreme coldness.


    Eloise was afraid of him.


    At that moment, Eleanor screamed, "Dad... your hand..."


    William rolled over and sat up.


    He raised his hands, which were fractured and almost useless. He would never be able to y the


    piano again.


    William was in so much pain that he lost consciousness.


    He felt it was a punishment from Madeline up in heaven!


    Although Eloise disliked them, William saved her when she was young, so she called a doctor for


    William but didn''t speak to them.


    Trembling, William said, "Eloise, do you also think I''m terribly guilty? I just... thought that Madelyn and


    Eleanor are sisters, and Ben is Eleanor''s brother-inw. It''s right for families to help each other."


    Eloise wanted to speak but choked up several times.


    Finally, she exhaled deeply and asked, "What is considered ''right''?" Eleanor always clings to my


    brother, but you continually indulge her and create the potential for misunderstandings! All you do is


    show partiality and try to force Eleanor on my brother... Mr. Bet, my parents avoid stating some


    things to save face, but I will make it evident to you now. With her tumultuous personal life, Eleanor


    would never be epted by my family! You may not be aware of the reason my brother broke up with


    her. He discovered her sleeping with a fitness teacher, and there were used condoms all over the


    floor... Isn''t that scandalous, Mr. Bet?"


    William''s face turned pale.


    He looked at his adopted daughter with deep sorrow.


    He had always thought she was willful but innocent in other aspects, utterly unaware of her...


    promiscuity!


    Eleanor gritted her teeth, "You''re talking nonsense!"


    Eloise rolled her eyes, "You know damn well whether it''s nonsense or not! Go get yourself checked at


    the gynecologist, you might have contracted all sorts of diseases a long time ago! And... don''te


    here and disgust us again, or else I''ll call uncle Ryan!"


    Eloise let out a sigh of relief.


    She felt satisfied, but when she thought about Madelyn and Everest, her eyes welled up with tears...


    *


    After everyone left, Benjamin wanted to talk to Madelyn in the hospital room, but she still refused to


    She turned her back to him.


    Benjamin watched her for a long time before silently leaving.


    He went to visit Cam.


    Cam''s leg injury was severe, and she still couldn''t leave bed to walk. Otherwise, she would definitely


    take care of Madelyn herself. She had heard about the child not being well and shed tears of heartache


    every day, her eyes almost swollen from crying.


    Benjamin pushed open the door and called out hoarsely, "Mom!"


    Cam was adjusting her leg and, upon seeing him, inexplicably burst into tears again. She was in so


    much pain that she couldn''t utter a word.


    Benjamin handed her a tissue and poured a ss of water.


    Cam wiped away her tears,posed herself, and said softly, "Ben, I understand what you mean...


    you still want to be married to Madelyn! But marriage isn''t taken lightly. I know you''re capable and


    haven''t lost anywsuits. You went to Monatiz with some concerns about Eleanor. But Madelyn is


    pregnant now, and you''ve had that kind of rtionship with Eleanor before. You shouldn''t leave her


    alone and go to Monatiz !"


    Benjamin nodded.


    He slowly squatted down, resting his head against Cam''s leg. "It''s my fault! Mom... I don''t want to


    separate from Madelyn. I want a chance to make it up to her."


    Cam couldn''t help but cry again.


    Make it up...


    Right now, Everest lies in an incubator. How can he make it up?


    This kind of heartache is fatal to a woman. It''s not like having another child will make it better.


    No matter how many children you have, they are not Everest.


    Cam touched his face and whispered, "Madelyn really likes you. If she didn''t like you that much, she


    wouldn''t keep giving you chances! Just think about what happened between Vivian and Grayson. If it


    were someone else, would Madelyn trade herself for him? Definitely not! It''s because you''re


    Benjamin... You''ve been through so much together, but sadly, you still don''t appreciate it. Maybe it''s


    because you have too much and everythinges too easily..."


    "But in marriage, once a woman''s heart dies, she won''t turn back!"


    ...


    Benjamin listened in a daze.


    He knew deep down that everything Cam said was true.


    Because he obtained her too quickly, he didn''t cherish her!


    He had a firm grip on Madelyn through the numerous breakups and reconciliations. He thought that


    even if she got angry when he went to Monatiz, she would eventually forgive him. She wouldn''t stay


    mad for long.


    He still treated Madelyn like a little girl.


    But he forgot that they were married, and she was his wife.


    Cam shook her head gently. "Ben, I can''t help you! If Madelyn feels unhappy with you and wants to


    separate, I respect her choice."


    Benjamin remained silent.


    At that moment, a doctor and a nurse entered the room to check Cam''s leg, and he conversed with


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    the doctor on the side.


    Afterward, he told Cam, "Mom, I''ll go see Madelyn. Rest well."


    Leaving the hospital room, he was overwhelmed by a sense of powerlessness...


    Benjamin stood there for a long time.


    He heard the sound of high heels approaching. Paisley came over with documents and told Benjamin,


    "I''ve rescheduled everything except for the work in your hands."


    Benjamin nodded.


    Paisley wanted to see Madelyn and ask about the child, but she decided against it after careful


    consideration.


    She felt a sense of pity.


    Benjamin signed the documents, seemingly calm andposed. But when he closed them, his eyes


    stung intensely...


    Paisley gently said, "Spend more time with Madelyn. She needs someone by her side right now."


    Benjamin smiled faintly.


    In fact, Madelyn didn''t need him.


    Although she was physically weak, she didn''t need anyone other than epting the nutritional meals


    sent by the family. And she only took a few bites of the meals.


    Benjamin was also staying at the hospital.


    Every day, he could only see Madelyn for half an hour when he visited Everest.


    Standing together, they would look at the little baby.


    Only then did he feel that they were still a couple. Only then did he think that Madelyn was still his wife.


    But Madelyn refused to speak to him.


    She was immersed in her own world, ignoring everyone around her.


    A week passed, and Madelyn became even thinner.


    That day, a doctor approached him and asked him to talk privately in the office.


    On the desk was a medical report, Madelyn''s recent physical examination results. The arrows on the


    report were rming, making Benjamin''s trembling fingers grip the paper.


    The authoritative obstetrician with connections to the rk family said, "Ben, your wife''s health is very


    poor. Because of the child, she is extremely anxious and refuses to take nutrition!"


    Benjamin''s throat tightened. "I''ll convince her!"


    The doctor looked at him briefly before softly saying, "She has postpartum depression!"


    Postpartum depression...


    Benjamin''s face turned pale.


    He knew what that term meant.


    The older female doctor patted his shoulder. "I will prescribe antidepressants for her, but the key lies in


    resolving the emotional issues... Ben, spend more time with her!"


    Benjamin nodded, about to end the conversation when Alexander called. His voice was tense, "Ben,


    <pe quickly! The child... something''s not right!"

 Chapter 219 Everest Is Not Well

    Chapter 219 Everest Is Not Well


    Chapter 219 Everest Is Not Well


    Everest was in critical condition.


    The hospital''s infant and toddler specialists were doing everything possible to save the baby.


    Everyone was waiting outside the emergency room. Even Cam hade in a wheelchair. She held


    Madelyn''s hand, hoping to give her some warmth.


    Madelyn had been standing.


    She was fragile but didn''t want to sit down. She gazed at the heavy iron doors.


    Her eyes dared not blink, afraid of missing something.


    Her Everest was inside, struggling hard to stay alive...


    The doctor said it was already a miracle that she had held on until now.


    The doctor said they could consider giving up the baby.


    The doctor said the baby was suffering too much!


    But every day, Everest was still breathing, still attached to this world. She wanted her mother, and she


    was not willing to leave...


    Madelyn became a mother, and only then did she understand that pain.


    Even though the pain was not physical, it felt a hundred times worse than any physical pain.


    Benjamin rushed over.


    Alexander nced at his son but didn''t me him anymore. He knew his son was also not feeling well.


    Who didn''t love Everest?


    Brianna and Eloise had been crying all along but suppressed their tears. Brianna whispered to her son,


    "Ben, let Madelyn sit down. She just gave birth ten days ago!"


    Brianna was highly distressed.


    As a woman, she knew how weak Madelyn was after giving birth, not to mention all the injuries to


    Madelyn''s body.


    Benjamin brought a chair for Madelyn, but she refused to sit down. In the end, he could only let her


    lean against him. She struggled for a moment and then stopped moving...


    After four hours, the doors of the emergency room finally opened.


    The doctor came out, slightly tired, and said, "We managed to save her, but the situation is still not


    optimistic. I just give you a heads-up!"


    Everyone understood the implication.


    It meant they could save her this time, but there were no guarantees for the next time.


    It also meant they could consider giving up the baby!


    ...


    But no one mentioned giving up the baby.


    Because Madelyn traded her life for this baby, and no one was willing to give up her.


    But, just to prevent any regrets, the rk family used their connections to arrange a ward next to the


    incubator room, allowing Madelyn to always see the baby. It''s afort but also a form of torture.


    Madelyn stayed by the baby''s side day and night without sleeping or resting.


    Benjamin was the father of the child, and he was also allowed to stay in the ward.


    For so many days, it was the first time he could be close to Madelyn. But she still ignored him, often


    sitting there and looking at Everest through the ss.


    Watching her sitting for a long time pained Benjamin.


    He poured a ss of water for her and ced it next to her. "Madelyn, take a break. The baby needs


    rest too."


    Madelyn was repulsed by him, instinctively pushing him away when he approached.


    The scalding hot water spilled all over his arm.


    In an instant, it turned red.


    It hurt, but Benjamin acted as if he didn''t feel it. He gently said, "I''ll go treat the wound! You should


    rest."


    Madelyn''s gaze fell on his arm.


    She didn''t say anything and quickly looked away.


    Benjamin was stung by her cold gaze. Now, there was no trace of warmth towards him in her eyes. She


    looked at him as if he were a stranger.


    If it weren''t for Everest, she wouldn''t be in the same room with him.


    Benjamin left in a hurry.


    He silently tended to his wound and returned to the ward.


    He could not bear this kind of indifference. He gently embraced her from behind, and his voice was


    hoarse, "Madelyn, you can hit me, scold me, but don''t treat me like this!"


    Madelyn didn''t struggle for free.


    Because she didn''t have the strength...


    She knew he wanted to salvage their rtionship. But in her heart, their rtionship died a long time


    ago.


    Madelyn turned around softly.


    Her eyes had lost their radiance, utterly devoid of light.


    "When I told you, you didn''t take it seriously."


    "And now... it''s not necessary anymore!"


    "Even if you hadn''t left the country, maybe nothing would have changed. I would still be hurt, and the


    baby would still be lying in the ICU. But Benjamin... no woman can endure her husband leaving her for


    the sake of his first love in a divorcewsuit. Benjamin, you can never imagine how I survived that one


    hour."


    Madelyn''s eyes turned red. "When I called you, you probably hadn''t taken off yet. Even if you could


    have rushed back to witness the birth of Everest, we would never have reached this point!"


    At least... at least Everest was born out of love.


    And not in such a wretched way!


    How could she forgive him?


    She... could not forgive him!


    After Madelyn finished speaking, she turned around and silently looked at Everest.


    That tiny, wrinkled little baby with closed eyes...


    Was she in pain, so much pain?


    Benjamin spoke softly, "Madelyn, I''m sorry!"


    He could only say sorry!


    ...


    Everest''s condition was deplorable!


    Finally, the doctor found Benjamin and told him privately, "Mr. rk... the survival rate of your child is


    now less than five percent! We ask for your decision."


    Five percent...


    Benjamin''s face turned pale.


    After a moment, he gritted his teeth, "My wife and I don''t want to give up the baby."


    After a while, the doctor stared at him and said, "I also want to tell you that Mrs. rk''s condition is


    also very poor. She now has severe postpartum depression. If she continues to wait for hope without


    sleep... the result may be damage to her nervous system, causing irreversible consequences!... In


    other words, she will be gued by depression for the rest of her life!"


    Benjamin clenched his fist slowly.


    The doctor reluctantly spoke, "The only way is to remove her from this environment! Mr. rk, do you


    understand what I mean?"


    Benjamin understood.


    For Madelyn, every day that Everest lived was a day of torment.


    For him, this choice was equivalent to saving either the mother or the baby.


    Benjamin didn''t want to give up either!


    He wanted Madelyn to live, and he wanted their baby to live...


    He remained silent for a long time before speaking softly, "I want the child to live! I also want my wife to


    be healthy... So I need all your help!"


    Benjamin slowly made his decision, leaving the doctor stunned.


    ...


    After leaving the doctor''s office, Benjamin found Keh.


    Keh was working in the office, head down and furrowed brow.


    Benjamin stood at the door and called out, "Uncle!"


    Keh looked at him, then sneered, "Who is your uncle?"


    Benjamin was used to it.


    He walked straight in and knelt gently in front of Keh.


    Keh sneered, "I can''t bear Mr. rk kneeling like this! So, what have you done now that you need


    to kneel and apologize?"


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    Benjamin told him what the doctor said.


    Keh was already worried about Madelyn''s health, and hearing this made him even more burdened.


    He asked Benjamin, "What are you going to do? Are you really willing to pull the plug on your own flesh


    and blood? If you dare to do that, I will kill you!"


    Benjamin calmly stated his n.


    The atmosphere suddenly became tense.


    Even Keh, who had faced storms and waves before, was shocked by Benjamin''s words. He was


    both astonished and angry, and immediately grabbed something and threw it...


    It was a paperweight.


    A stone object sharply hit Benjamin''s forehead.

 Chapter 220 Ready to Set Her Free

    Chapter 220 Ready to Set Her Free


    Chapter 220 Ready to Set Her Free


    Benjamin didn''t avoid it.


    A small stream of crimson blood flowed down his face...


    Keh didn''t care about all that. He stood before Benjamin, his voice trembling with anger:


    "Benjamin, have you thought about the consequences of your actions? Can Madelyn bear it? What if...


    what if she really loses the baby? If that happens, Benjamin, you''re finished!"


    Benjamin closed his eyes slightly, "I know it! I know it!"


    He had no other choice!


    Madelyn hated him so much. He couldn''t help her anything. He couldn''t bear to see her suffering in


    pain anymore. If a change of environment could make her better, he was willing... he was ready to set


    her free!


    Keh remained silent for a while.


    But Benjamin knew that he had agreed.


    Wiping away the blood from his forehead, Benjamin got up and left.


    Once the door closed, Keh erupted in anger alone, sweeping the documents off the floor and


    cursing, "This lunatic, loving her so much! What the hell was he doing earlier?"


    As he cursed, Keh slumped down wearily.


    His eyes were red.


    In fact, he knew deep down that doing this would at least save Madelyn''s life.


    ...


    Benjamin returned to the hospital room.


    Madelyn was still staring at the baby. Benjamin wondered if she had slept for up to three hours each


    day.


    She was slowly draining her life for this baby.


    Having made such a decision, Benjamin felt a sense of bitter sorrow in his heart. He had never


    experienced this emotion since he was young, but now he tasted it.


    He was a husband and a father.


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    He needed to do better!


    He had turned his wife into what she had be...


    He embraced her tightly. Perhaps it was thest time he could openly hold her like this.


    Madelyn naturally resisted.


    But Benjamin held onto her desperately, his chin resting on her shoulder as he whispered, "Let me hold


    you for a while, just this once. Madelyn... Don''t push me away!"


    She had no strength left and silently allowed him to hold her.


    It felt like holding onto a cold lump of ice.


    But he still nuzzled against her neck, savoring her scent, which reminded him of many beautiful


    memories he had with Madelyn.


    Clearly, he loved her...


    She was his first intimate woman.


    He kept her at home, showered her with various gifts to please her, fought Daniel for her, and felt


    jealous when David, Bryson, and Nics were around her... Every time she cried, he felt heartbroken;


    every time she left him, he regretted it.


    Clearly, he loved her...


    Benjamin kissed her hair, his voice trembling slightly, "Madelyn, I love you!"


    Madelyn''s body stiffened.


    Whether he loved her or not no longer mattered to her.


    She didn''t respond, and he closed his eyes tightly while holding her tighter. He said in a hoarse voice,


    "You''re hurting me!"


    "I''m hurting too!"


    "Madelyn, I''m hurting too!"


    She would always feel sorry for his pain in the past, but now she remained indifferent no matter how


    much he suffered!


    ...


    A nurse entered with medication, feeling somewhat bewildered by the scene.


    So she quickly ced the medicine tray down and left.


    Benjamin looked at the two pills on the tray. They were supposed to be antidepressants Madelyn


    usually took, but today they were sleeping pills.


    As long as Madelyn took them, she would sleep soundly for more than ten hours.


    Benjamin slowly released his hold on her.


    His voice trembled softly, "Madelyn, it''s time for your medication."


    Madelyn didn''t resist taking the medicine. She knew she was sick and was willing to seek treatment.


    Soon, she swallowed the two pills with warm water.


    Drowsiness slowly crept in...


    She felt unprecedented exhaustion, as if she could sleep for a lifetime.


    "Benjamin..."


    "Why do I feel so sleepy?"


    Her body gradually went limp, and he caught her, holding her in his arms.


    He ced her gently on the small bed and watched her quietly.


    Before her pregnancy, Madelyn weighed 110 pounds but was now down to 80 pounds. Her whole body


    was almost just bones, and her small face was so thin that it ached.


    Benjamin caressed her face gently, feeling her warmth.


    For a long time, he took off the ne from her neck.


    There was the ring he had given her.


    She was asleep, and he could only easily slip the diamond ring onto her finger.


    Finally, they became a real couple!


    Benjaminy down and embraced her body, burying his face in her neck, and for a moment, it was wet


    there... How he wished to freeze time at this moment.


    If Everest was fine, he and Madelyn were still husband and wife...


    *


    Madelyn slept for 24 hours.


    She slowly opened her eyes, her mind nk, then her body stood up as if she remembered, and she


    ran towards the ss window.


    "Everest..."


    "How is she?"


    But when she saw the other side, she froze.


    The incubator was empty, and all the equipment had been removed, leaving only a tiny nket that


    once wrapped Everest spread out there...


    The little baby named Everest was gone.


    When Madelyn snapped back to reality, tears streamed down her face as she pounded on the ss


    door, calling out Everest''s name...


    "Everest... Everest..."


    "Mommy is here."


    "Everest... where have you gone?"


    Her body was held by a warm body. Benjamin held her tightly, his lips against her hair, preventing her


    from hurting herself with any movement, and he hoarsely told her, "Everest is gone!"


    Madelyn was stunned.


    She blinked her eyes gently, tears filling her eyshes; she couldn''t see anything clearly.


    She couldn''t believe it!


    She just took a nap; how could Everest be gone?


    She desperately pounded on the ss, her palms swollen, but she didn''t give up...


    She always felt that everything was an illusion, a dream!


    When she woke up, her Everest would be there!


    Madelyn began to smash things frantically, the sound of shattering hoping to wake her up from the


    dream... it must be a dream!


    Benjamin held her tightly; everything in the hospital room was smashed.


    His arms were covered in blood...


    Madelyn looked at everything before her and slowly epted the reality that her Everest was gone; her


    baby had disappeared from this world!


    Benjamin held her tightly, "Madelyn, calm down!"


    Madelyn went crazy, pping him several times and then crying in pain, "Benjamin... Everest is gone!


    She''s gone!"


    Benjamin endured it all!


    He knew Madelyn hated him so much, and he could only endure!


    He embraced her.


    Embracing their final tenderness...


    For a long, long time...


    Madelyn waspletely dazed; she whispered, "Where is she? I want to see her."


    Everest was so small; she must be scared.


    Benjamin didn''t want her to go; he feared she would be further stimted, "Give it a day, you need to


    rest now."


    But Madelyn insisted.


    "I want to see her! Benjamin... she is my baby, I want to see her!"


    ...


    In the evening, darkness fell.


    Tall trees cast shadows over thend inside the rks'' cemetery, and the sun showed signs of decline.


    Next to Benjamin''s grandmother''s grave, there was a small one.


    Madelyn got out of the car and stumbled over.


    After seeing that small grave, she froze, knelt on the ground with weak legs, trembling, and scooped up


    a handful of soil.


    Fresh and moist, with a few tender sprouts...


    At this moment, Madelyn finally believed that Everest was truly gone...

 Chapter 221 Everest, Just Had A Nice Sleep And Rest

    Chapter 221 Everest, Just Had A Nice Sleep And Rest


    Chapter 221 Everest, Just Had A Nice Sleep And Rest


    The red clouds were wandering in the sky.


    The setting sun fell on the ck leaves and brought some weirdness to the earth, as if it were also


    mourning the loss of a little girl.


    Madelyn''s face was drowned in tears and she seemed to have lost her wits.


    Was Everest really dead?


    Was she really gone like that?


    What should she do? Was she scared...


    Mummy... What should I do?


    She put the handful of fresh mud to her heart hard and bent double. Her bony bones in her back could


    still be seen over her clothing.


    "Why... why don''t you let me see her for thest time!"


    Benjamin just wanted to hold her up, but he stopped his slender fingers which were poised in the air


    with strange gestures.


    His voice was rather hoarse, "She doesn''t look nice. I''m afraid you won''t forget it after seeing her face."


    She was in a daze as she heard that.


    She closed her eyes slightly, "Benjamin, how cruel you are! She is also your child and you just treat


    her... treat her like that..."


    She couldn''t bear to describe her little girl with those words.


    She put the soil which was in her arms to the packet.


    And then she started to pile up the soil around. There were some sharp stones in the soil which quickly


    cut her hands. But she just didn''t care.


    She was doing that mechanically.


    Mummy put some more nkets for you, Everest.


    Would you be warmer?


    Oh, there was not even time for mommy to love you.


    Before you were born, Everest, mummy had imagined what you would be like many times. But none of


    my imagination was as good as you in reality.


    Everest, just had a nice sleep and rest.


    Mummy was here...


    The world became mournful.


    Thest ray of light in the sky disappeared and the darkness enveloped the earth.


    Benjamin bent down and held her up, "Let''s go back then!"


    However, as he just held her, he found that she had passed out and that she was burning abnormally


    all over her body...


    ...


    In the ward.


    Madelyn was lying quietly while Benjamin wiped her hands and body for her.


    He was whispering in her ear, hoping that it could wake her up.


    But she refused to do so. The doctor said that she was jarred and she refused to ept the truth


    subconsciously so that she just kept sleeping.


    Brianna and Eloise were also there.


    Eloise couldn''t help crying, "Brother, will my sister-inw never wake up again? You just shouldn''t have


    lied to her like that at all... Oh... How sad she is!"


    Brianna wiped her tears quietly.


    Although her husband and she knew what Ben was doing, they didn''t dare to have much hope in their


    hearts. After all, there was only a 5% chance.


    But now... They just couldn''t see the little girl.


    It was Benjamin who would decide everything.


    He heard the crying of both his mother and sister. He held Madelyn''s hand with his eyes fixed on her


    face and said softly, "I will never regret it!"


    Eloise was stunned.


    ...


    Madelyn had been in aa for four days.


    Four dayster, she woke up and found that it was rather quiet in the dim ward.


    It must be night.


    Benjamin leant over the side of the bed. His face that she once admired was leaning against her hand,


    looking rather haggard and tired.


    She was watching him quietly...


    Immediately, he was awakened.


    He raised his eyes and met her gaze in the dim light.


    They were couples. However, after going through so much, their marriage had long been in tatters.


    They didn''t even know what to say when they met.


    Everest was dead. There was nothing they could talk about between them.


    Madelyn closed her eyes softly, "Just go out!"


    He said gently in a hoarse voice, "Hungry? How about having some hot soup!"


    And then he came to take the soup.


    But she turned her head to the other side and said coldly, "No necessary!"


    His hands paused and the delight and faint smile on his face froze. But soon he continued todle soup


    and tried his best to say in an easy tone, "The doctor said you were deficient in nutrition. Well, in the


    soup, I have asked my man to put..."


    "I don''t need any soup, Benjamin!"


    "How many times should I tell you that I don''t need you!"


    ...


    Finally, his hand trembled slightly and he put down the bowl softly.


    With his back to her, they just couldn''t see each other''s faces. Perhaps it would be easier for him to talk


    to her.


    He was afraid of seeing her indifferent look.


    There was suppression in his voice, "You don''t want to see me. Fine, I will ask mother to take care of


    you! Well, her legs are much better and she can walk now... Madelyn, I know you are sad. But don''t be


    like that for a long time, all right? We... we... will have to move on and our lives must go on!"


    ...


    "I have conceived her for 7 months."


    "And I spent 16 hours giving birth to her."


    ...


    It was eating her heart out when she said so. And her body was in great pain.


    She sat up softly and looked at her breasts in amazement. Surprisingly, she found that they started to


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    be filled with milk... They hadn''t be like that since she delivered her little girl. Now Everest was


    gone, but her breasts began to produce milk instead.


    The swelling and pain just reminded her constantly that she once had a child.


    She burst into tears.


    She held the white quilts and cried hard. She clinched her slender fingers...


    Benjamin saw everything.


    He walked over and held her gently.


    He leaned over her neck and said hoarsely, "Madelyn, how abouting home with me? We''re not


    staying at the hospital. It will remind you of Everest forever."


    But she shook off his hand.


    She took the quilts in her arms, lost in thought silently.


    The doctor said that it would take a long time for her to go through it and that he should have more


    patience to apany her.


    Benjamin still lived in the hospital with Madelyn. Even though she ignored him, even though she didn''t


    say anything to him for a few days, he just didn''t want to let go. He stared at her face greedily.


    He knew that he wouldn''t have many chances to do something like that.


    asionally at night, he got an emergency call and would thus leave here for a few days.


    Madelyn had no idea where he went, nor did she care...


    It was rather chilly between them. But he still kept herpany for half a month. As he remembered


    thatter, he felt that it was probably the most heartbreaking time of his life.


    She was before him, but he just couldn''t see any hope.

    Chapter 222 I, Benjamin rk, Will Withdraw From The Law Field Forever!


    Chapter 222 I, Benjamin rk, Will Withdraw From The Law Field Forever!


    Two days before Madelyn was discharged from the hospital.


    Benjamin had to deal with a previouswsuit at ten o''clock in the morning. At eight o''clock, he told


    Eloise specifically to take care of Madelyn and asked Eloise to call him if anything happened.


    Eloise nodded, "I will take good care of my sister-inw!"


    He nced at Madelyn again.


    He found that she was leaning against the bed and reading a book quietly. She looked much better and


    her face became a bit rounder than before.


    Although he knew that she didn''t care, he still said softly, "I''lle back to have lunch with you at


    noon!"


    Nothing replied to him but silence.


    He smiled bitterly and walked out of the ward.


    Paisley was waiting for him outside. Seeing that Benjamin came out, he asked with concern


    immediately, "How is Madelyn?"


    Benjamin took the document and whispered, "Better! The doctor says that she can be discharged from


    the hospital."


    Paisley said something tofort him.


    ...


    As Benjamin arrived at the first floor, a dense crowd of media reporters gathered in front of the ck


    RV, scrambling to interview him with microphones.


    "Mr. rk, this is the first time that you have shown up in court since something happened to your


    wife."


    "Will it affect your performance?"


    "Are you sure about keeping your record of winning the cases?"


    ...


    Benjamin didn''t say anything and just got into the back seat of the car.


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    Paisley stopped the reporters and said something proper and polite before she sat in the back seat. But


    she scolded the unscrupulous media in her heart, "Stinkers!"


    She looked at her boss with concern, worried that he would not at his best today.


    As the confidant, she knew clearly how much Benjamin cared about his reputation!


    But on the contrary, he was rather calm!


    He told the driver with an expressionless face, "Let''s go then!"


    At nine o''clock, the car stopped slowly at the gate of the Supreme Judicial Court of Gredax. Benjamin''s


    client was already waiting, while thewyer of the other party, with an ambitious look on his face, was


    also not far away.


    As Benjamin got out of the car, he was stopped by a bunch of flowers.


    Eleanor looked more delicate than a rose. She stared at him shyly.


    As she went through a marriage, she felt that Benjamin was just someone she wanted.


    She knew that his marriage had been torn to pieces. She thought that he woulde back to her


    someday as long as she was gentle, considerate and more generous.


    Eleanor said affectionately, "Ben, I hope you will win the case today!"


    Benjamin frowned.


    He helped her with thewsuit just for his duty, or perhaps for the end of their rtionship.


    What was Eleanor doing right now?


    She looked so flirty, "When you win, let''s open champagne and I will be yours!"


    The reporters burst into an uproar.


    Did she just express her love in public?


    And this Ms. Bet seemed to be Mr. rk''s first love. Would there be a crisis in his marriage?


    Would Ms. Bet really be his right girl?


    Everyone was waiting for his response.


    But Benjamin just spoke into a microphone, "I have my wife and I have no intention of cheating on her!


    Please don''t be that cheap, Ms. Bet!"


    And then he just walked into the court.


    Eleanor was so angry that it got her bent out of shape. And the flowers were thrown on the ground.


    The reporters wereughing at her.


    She tried her best to keep the smile on her face and said shamelessly, "Well, we are childhood


    sweethearts and no one can take my ce in his heart! If thew is his first life, I am his second one


    then!"


    The reporters wrote it down hurriedly.


    Such news would no doubt cause a sensation!


    Paisley looked at Eleanor and shook her head slightly, feeling that thetter was challenging


    Benjamin''s patience.


    The court was in session on time at ten o''clock.


    Benjamin was at his best, as he always did.


    It was basically settled at eleven o''clock.


    Mr. rk just kept his undefeated record. His photos would be exposed in major media tomorrow.


    It was ten past eleven.


    Thewyer on the opposite side asked for an adjournment and wanted to negotiate with Benjamin''s


    side.


    As the judge had just called a recess, he got a phone call. It was Eloise. She was crying.


    "Brother, sister-inw has gone missing! I can''t find her anywhere."


    "I just went to the bathroom. Well, I didn''t mean it."


    "Will something happen to her, Benjamin?"


    ...


    Benjamin said softly, "I''ll be right back!" And then he hung up the phone.


    He stood up slightly under so many gazes.


    He stared at the dissatisfied judge and said in a hoarse voice, "My wife needs me, so I... ask the client


    to change thewyer!"


    The judge was stunned.


    So was his client.


    So was everyone.


    Thewsuit would soon be over and it wouldn''t take half an hour. If Benjamin stayed, he could still keep


    his record of victory and be a legend in thew field!


    What was he doing right now?


    The judge looked unnatural with his facial muscles and coughed softly, "Have you made up your mind,


    Mr. rk? Leaving court will bring you a revocation of a two-year practice license! You won''t be


    allowed to stand in court for the next two years!"


    He was walking toward the gate.


    Suddenly, he paused and said rather softly, "More than two years! From now on, I, Benjamin rk, will


    withdraw from thew field forever!"


    As soon as he announced his decision, it created quite a furor among the media!


    The case itself was no longer important and everyone''s focus was on his decision.


    The king of thew field withdrew from it forever.


    Was it April Fools'' Day today?


    Eleanor, who was behind him, almost went crazy. Did Benjamin know what he was doing? Would he


    leave thew field just because Madelyn was missing?


    How could he do that!


    How could he humiliate her like that!


    Benjamin walked rather quickly while Paisley followed him and mounted that she would have to learn


    something new.


    It was outside the court.


    Benjamin''s car got blocked by the reporters and he just couldn''t start it at all.


    He put his hand on the car door and said softly, "Look, my wife is missing and I want to find her right


    now! I used to think that the court was the most important ce in my life, but now I realize that family


    is what I want the most! I love my wife very much!"


    And then he got into the car.


    The reporters spread out slowly and made a way for him...


    Everyone was silent.


    They were all shocked by his decision!


    When Benjamin left, he thought that he might hate to part with the court. But he didn''t feel that way,


    because he knew that he wasing for the most important person in his life...


    Madelyn lost the opportunity to be a top pianist that night.


    She protected their little girl with her life.


    He felt that he could also give up what he loved, like she did. Whenever she was sad, he would never


    let her face it alone again...


    Behind Benjamin, Eleanor screamed hysterically.


    Numerous disdainful gazes were focused on her...


    So it was Mr. rk''s wife who he truly loved. But Ms. Bet just never gave up and became a home


    wrecker...


    Later, someone exposed arge number of explicit photos of Eleanor on the inte.


    She used to be acknowledged as a pure and attractivedy, but now everyone thought she was cheap


    and dissolute.


    ...


    The news that Benjamin left thew field had caused a great uproar in other industries.


    He refused to take any interviews and asked the driver to go to the rk''s Cemetery.


    Sure enough, Madelyn was here.


    She stood quietly in her hospital gown.


    Benjamin walked over softly. She seemed to know that it was him and said in a soft voice, "It''s


    Everest''s 31th day today since she was born."

    Chapter 223 If Everest Is Still Alive, Will You Come Back To Me?


    Chapter 223 If Everest Is Still Alive, Will You Come Back To Me?


    Benjamin put his arms around her shoulders gently.


    But Madelyn didn''t break away from him as she usually did.


    She allowed him to hold her for a long time.


    She finally said to him when the sun was high in the sky, "Benjamin, when will we get a divorce?"


    He stiffened slightly.


    He had long known that she would talk about divorce with him today, but he didn''t want to let it go


    easily. Instead, he hoped that he could dy it a little longer so that he might still have time to save


    their broken marriage.


    He was silent for a long time and then he said in a hoarse voice, "There is no hurry!"


    But Madelyn broke away from him.


    She turned to look at him. In her heart, he was like a dead man and she would no doubt divorce him.


    "Why bother!"


    She said in a hoarse voice, "Why not end the marriage as soon as possible? We all have to start a new


    journey. Well, our marriage exists just because of Everest. Now she is gone and we..."


    He interrupted her.


    He stared at her deeply and asked her in a rather light and humble tone, "If Everest is still alive, will you


    He asked her about it skillfully.


    But he didn''t ask if she would divorce him if Everest was not dead.


    Instead, he asked whether she would be back to him...


    Madelyn didn''t get it.


    She looked up to the white sky and said softly, "It''s a pity that there has been no assumption between


    us."


    He stepped forward and held her rather slowly. Before she broke away, he murmured, "I''ll sign it!


    Madelyn... I''ll just hold you for a little while!"


    They held each other quietly.


    At that time, Benjamin had no idea how long he would be separated from her. Maybe two years, three


    years... or the rest of his life!


    But no matter how long it would be, he told himself that he should set her free!


    He looked at her deeply, "How about going to the apartment where we used to live and having a meal


    together! I will ask Paisley to bring the divorce agreementter!"


    But she broke away from him atst.


    She smiled lightly, "That''s not necessary!"


    He grabbed her hand, "Have a meal with me! And I will sign it!"


    He looked at her eagerly and insisted.


    Madelyn finally agreed.


    She sat in his car while he called Paisley and gave thetter some instructions. Obviously, Paisley had


    known about it and did everything he requested effectively and quickly!


    Half an hourter, Benjamin drove the car to the apartment.


    Everything remained the same!


    The rococo-style curtains, piano and blue vase were the same as they were in her memory. Even the


    injured Snowy was taken back from the pet hospital and was lying on the cushion now basking in the


    sunzily.


    Snowy rushed over all at once as Madelyn came in.


    It purred for a long time!


    She reached out and stroked its head gently.


    He looked at her thin hand and said in a low voice, "You can take it away if you like!"


    She nodded slightly.


    Since it was their farewell meal, she didn''t want to eat with him in the hospital gown. Therefore, she


    went to the cloakroom to pick up a dress and got changed. She also put on makeup!


    They were both silent during the meal, because there were two divorce agreements putting squarely on


    the table, apart from the exquisite food.


    Benjamin took them aside and whispered, "Why don''t we watch it after the meal?"


    He picked up some food for her gently and asked her to have some more.


    Madelyn had some food and then put down her bowl. She smiled lightly, "Let''s sign it then, Benjamin!"


    He was holding the knife with his fingers which stiffened a bit.


    He said after a while, "But I''m not full yet!"


    Madelyn waited for him patiently. There was hardly any sign of madness in her. Well, no matter how


    sad she was, she would have to face reality and move on bravely.


    Now, she had regained her courage.


    She wanted to move on alone...


    Benjamin just gave her a generous offer, including real estate, stock funds and cash, which cost more


    than 2 billion dors in total.


    She found it hard to sign the agreement.


    He said gently and calmly, "Take it then! And don''t drink too hard for work again..."


    Her eyes grew a little moist.


    She signed it...


    Everything was hazy in Benjamin''s eyes. He calmed himself down for a while before pretending to ask


    her casually, "What are your ns then?"


    She didn''t reply to him.


    He froze for a moment and then went into a trance.


    Well, asking her about her ns after they got divorced? Certainly, she wouldn''t say anything.


    It was all over.


    She got up and called Snowy over. She put a rope on it and said softly to him before she left, "I''m


    leaving!"


    But he was still sitting in front of the dining table.


    He really wanted to see her out, but he was afraid that he would make it harder as he hated to part with


    her.


    He looked at her, who was rather calm, and told himself that it was good for both of them. All right. He


    turned his face away and said in a rather hoarse voice, "Your uncle''s car is parked downstairs."


    She lowered her eyes and replied to him with a "right".


    It was over...


    As she held the doorknob with her fingers, he said suddenly, "Look, Madelyn, believe it or not, I love


    you!"


    She stiffened slightly.


    She touched the metal doorknob with her fingers, but she gritted her teeth and still opened the door.


    It was gloriously sunny outside.


    Keh''s car was parked downstairs. He came to pick Madelyn up personally.


    She remained silent as she sat in the car. She turned her face and looked out of the window...


    Keh smiled and said, "What, can''t bear to part with that jerk?"


    ...


    "No!"


    ...


    His look was rather deep, "Oh right, he left the court today and said that he would withdraw from the


    Madelyn was obviously stunned.


    He smiled, "Just move on if you don''t mind!"


    Her emotions were churning.


    What did you want, Benjamin?


    You just left thew field and would never be awyer again on the day of our divorce? What did


    you mean?


    She decided to let it go.


    As they were parted, they should no longer think about each other.


    ...


    Madelyn left, while Benjamin was sitting alone in the apartment.


    It was empty everywhere.


    He felt rather lonely at the moment.


    He knew that she intended to go abroad. Keh had applied for a three-year visa to Oriapool for her.


    After so many years had passed since she went abroad, what would she be like when she came back?


    Would there be any other man keeping herpany?


    Benjamin had no idea.


    He only knew that he had just exchanged the divorce agreement for a possibility for her future. Even


    though he missed her so much that he got lovesickness, or even though he felt so bad, he would have


    to watch her leave here and set her free.


    He sat in front of the Morning Dew, the piano he gave her, and yed Moonlight Sonata alone.


    He just yed it over and over again, never knowing fatigue at all!


    He got a phone call in the evening, "Mr. rk, your daughter just opens her eyes. I think I should tell


    you first! Perhaps you would like to see her andmunicate with her!"


    He was holding his phone.


    His Adam''s apple bobbled in his throat. Finally, he restrained his emotions and said, "I''ll be right there!"


    Half an hourter, a ck Maybach parked in front of a cutting-edgeboratory building.


    It was built by a doctor from Dndha aiming to conquer human biological genes. Little Everest was


    sent over half a month ago. Certainly, the cost of treatment was rather expensive...


    Benjamin would pay by seconds!


    As he just pushed the ss door open, a blonde foreigner gave him a small capsule.


    "She has gotten good luck!"


    "She has a 50% survival rate now. But it is just that, Mr. rk... the baby is difficult to feed, because we


    don''t know what idents of the treatment might happen during her growth! Anyway... she must stay in


    ourboratory for observation and monitoring until she is two years old."


    Benjamin was holding the capsule.


    There was something small inside.


    The girl was whiter than before with some small brown hair on her head. Her eyes were rather


    beautiful. The little blue veins at the end of her eyebrows were inherited from her mother.


    Little Everest was looking up to someone above.


    Suddenly, she burst into a smile and showed her cute little gums.


    All his anxiety was gone at the moment. He kissed the little girl over the capsule.


    Everest, I was... Daddy!

 Chapter 224 Meet Again After Three Years

    Chapter 224 Meet Again After Three Years


    Chapter 224 Meet Again After Three Years


    Three yearster.


    Madelyn and Florence walked out of the airport.


    At the exit, Nics, swinging his long legs, saw theming out, immediately took off his sunsses,


    and gave Florence a big hug and a fierce kiss.


    Florence''s face immediately turned red.


    Madelyn was rather helpless.


    Florence was only 19 years old. Nics was really a jerk!


    These years, the Music Center was basically managed by Nics. After all, he had the genes of Tyler,


    and he expanded the Music Center to Esrand, and it flourished.


    Over time, he tricked Florence into his grasp.


    When David found out, he beat Nics, the rich yboy, half to death! Later, contrary to everyone''s


    expectations, after Nics and Florence got together, Nics stopped drinking and going to bars. He


    was like the perfect boyfriend.


    He visited Florence in Oriapool every month.


    ...


    Madelyn returned to Gredax, mainly because Cam''s leg injury recurred and needed to be treated


    and recuperated in Gredax.


    She invested in a few Edofordian restaurants and asionally yed the piano there.


    As a mature, beautiful and financially independent woman, she naturally had many suitors.


    But Madelyn had no feelings for them...


    ...


    The Everest Group.


    On the 68th floor of the high-rise building, at the top floor president''s office.


    Benjamin sat behind the solid wood desk, reviewing documents. The light from the entire floor-to-


    ceiling window behind him made him look stronger, majestic and godlike.


    Paisley walked in.


    She looked at her boss and sighed at the favoritism of the heavens for her boss.


    When a man reached the age of 33, it was a time for people to savor him. Every bit of him exuded the


    charm of a mature man. The women who wanted to have a fling with Mr. rk lined up from the east of


    the city to the west.


    Paisley put down a kraft paper bag gently.


    Benjamin put down his pen, picked it up, and opened it.


    Paisley cleared her throat lightly. "Madelyn is back!"


    Benjamin was clearly taken aback.


    He looked up at Paisley, his voice a little hoarse. "She''s back?"


    Paisley felt a bit of pressure. She nodded. "Yes, she''s back! Because of her aunt''s leg injury, she may


    stay in Gredax for a while."


    Benjamin didn''t ask any more.


    He opened the kraft paper bag.


    Inside was a stack of photos, all of Nics and Madelyn, not very intimate, but enough to make him


    jealous.


    He knew that Nics went to Oriapool every month.


    And he hadn''t been there once in these three years.


    Because of Everest, he couldn''t leave, and he didn''t dare to disturb her easily!


    For three years, he could only ease his longing through pictures, but every time he had to see Nics


    ... and David''s sister!


    Paisley could see that her boss was jealous!


    She quietly put down an invitation. "Mr. Wyatt and Vivian''s fourth wedding anniversary dinner. I heard


    it''s quite grand!"


    Benjamin smiled faintly. "This couple!"


    Paisley grinned. "Madelyn is also going!"


    Benjamin suddenly felt the invitation was valuable, held it in his hand, and casually said, "You''ve been


    working with me for quite some years now. It''s time for a raise! Oh, and it''s your birthday next month,


    right? Go to the mall and pick a gift. You can expense itter!"


    Paisley was overjoyed. "Thank you, Mr. rk!"


    To reward herself, she picked a 27,000 ne! From a legal worker to bing a profiteer, she


    deserved it.


    Paisley left.


    Benjamin walked alone to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down.


    About 10 minutester, he shakily took out a cigarette and lit it.


    After taking a hard puff, he gently closed his eyes.


    "She''s finally back..." he thought.


    ...


    Saturday night.


    Grayson and Vivian''s wedding anniversary party.


    Madelyn made her first appearance.


    She and Vivian hadn''t seen each other for a long time, and they hugged each other as soon as they


    met.


    Vivian held Madelyn, looking at her carefully. She had recovered well, still slender and exquisite, but


    with a bit more maturity. She was more attractive.


    Vivian''s eyes filled with tears. "You naughty girl! You ran so far away!"


    Madelyn smiled softly. "I won''t leave for now!"


    Vivianughed through her tears. "If you run again, I''ll break your legs!"


    While she was speaking, Grayson came over, leading their son, Elliot, by the hand. Little Elliot was


    already five years old, in the middle ss of kindergarten, and had grown quite strong.


    Grayson asked their son to greet people.


    Elliot was very obedient, and Madelyn liked him very much. She even specially brought a gift.


    Vivian looked at her lovingly holding the child, quietly persuading her, "You love children so much and


    so many people are pursuing you, but you don''t seem to have any feelings for them!"


    Madelyn smiled faintly. "No good choice!"


    Just as Vivian was about to say something, there was amotion at the entrance...


    Madelyn naturally looked over, and then she was stunned.


    It was Benjamin!


    Obviously, Benjamin also saw her. They looked at each other, as if everything around them


    disappeared.


    N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.


    If they were ordinary divorced couples, three years would be enough to dilute everything.


    But they had a child, and their marriage before was so tragic, so how could they easily forget?


    In the end, it was Madelyn who came back to her senses first, gave him a faint smile, and then turned


    and entered the banquet hall.


    Benjamin''s eyes were deep.


    He stared at her back, greedy... Madelyn was different from before!


    He wanted to pretend to chat with her casually, but they were not at the same table. The ce where


    he was sitting was all business tycoons that Grayson had worked hard to invite. Benjamin distractedly


    socialized with them and discussed business.


    But his eyes were always on Madelyn.


    Madelyn regretteding a bit.


    She didn''t expect to bump into Benjamin so quickly. Seeing him, she would always think of some


    unpleasant past.


    She was a bit silent this night.


    She knew he was watching her, and she deliberately ignored it.


    Later, Nics sought her out for business matters. The banquet hall was noisy, so Nics whispered a


    few words in her ear.


    Madelyn thought about it and agreed with him.


    Nics smiled and left.


    Benjamin noticed all of this. Seeing the little wolf dog being intimate with her, he was very jealous. But


    he couldn''t do anything about it.


    Next to him, someone persuaded him to drink, "Ben, what''s wrong with you tonight? You haven''t


    touched a drop of alcohol till now! Are you afraid of getting drunk and messing things up, so you are


    trying to maintain your chastity?"


    Benjamin smiled faintly. "I drove myself, Mr. Hunter, please forgive me!"


    Mr. Hunter was the boss of a six-star hotel. He saw Madelyn just now and guessed his thoughts.


    He lowered his voice. "Is Madelyn back?"


    Benjamin hummed lightly.


    Mr. Hunter felt that Benjamin was bitter and drank several sses of red wine to cheer him up. "Ben,


    looking at your monk-like private life, I think Madelyn will be moved! Hey, where did Madelyn go?"


    Benjamin quickly chased after her.


    Madelyn really left early.


    Vivian said there was another private partyter. Madelyn didn''t want to go, so she refused.


    She took the elevator to the first floor of the hotel.


    In the parking lot, a ck car was waiting for her.


    The driver saw hering down and opened the door for her.


    Just as Madelyn was about to get in, the car door was gently held by someone. She looked up and saw


    Benjamin''s handsome face close at hand. He said in a deep voice like red wine, "Madelyn, can we find


    a ce to talk?"


    Madelyn hesitated.


    She didn''t want to reminisce with him, but she knew Benjamin. If she refused, he could make the driver


    watch the fun.


    After weighing the options, she pointed to the coffee shop across the street. "Let''s go sit there!"


    After saying that, she walked ahead.


    Benjamin knew that she was deliberately keeping a distance and didn''t give him the opportunity he


    wanted. He didn''t force it. He just followed her at a leisurely pace, walking and lighting a cigarette.


    When they got to the coffee shop across the street, he put out the cigarette.


    In the bright coffee shop.


    Madelyn ordered a cup of Mandeling. She stirred it gently and politely said, "How have you been these


    years? I heard that you established the Everest Group and you are doing very well!"


    The Everest Group took just three years to reach the top ten in Luthie.


    Market value in the billions!


    Madelyn took a sip of coffee. "Benjamin, you do everything so well!"


    Benjamin''s gaze was far more direct than hers.


    Since sitting down, his eyes had not left her face. Like a machine gun, after hearing her words, he


    lightly chuckled. "Is that so? I do everything well?"


    Madelyn was slightly taken aback!


    Her ears turned a bit red, and then her attitude cooled down. "I have to go!"


    Benjamin regretted it a little.


    He gentlemanly tried to keep her, his voice bing gentle. "I was wrong! Please stay a little longer!


    Madelyn... Why don''t you ask about my love life these past few years?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to ask.


    She quietly paid for the coffee and walked ahead.


    For divorced couples, a cup of coffee was enough.


    Benjamin ran out. "I''ll take you home!"


    Madelyn stopped.


    Under the neon lights, she raised her eyes to look at him.


    He still looked handsome, even more attractive than before, but after three years, they were no


    different from strangers.


    He missed her, but Madelyn had been gradually forgetting him and dulling her feelings over these three


    years!


    Madelyn softly said, "I can see that you are eager for marriage now, Benjamin... Find a good woman


    and get married! Our story is over, and I ... can''t stay in the past forever."


    Remembering all this, she thought of the pain.


    Madelyn turned and quickly walked away.


    Benjamin stood in the night, silently watching her.


    Across the street, her driver was waiting for her. He was selected by Keh. Now she was the young


    daughter of the Ryan family, having the best of everything. She didn''t need to entertain, enjoying a life


    offort and freedom.


    Indeed, she didn''t need to look back...

    Benjamin returned to the vi.


    This vi area was developed by the Everest Group, with top-level security and privacy. He kept one for


    himself.


    A ck Maybach slowly drove into the ck carved gate, and as the car entered, all the lights in the


    vi lit up brightly. The music fountain began to spray water, making a joyful sound.


    As soon as Benjamin parked the car and got out, a maid came over.


    "Little Evie is not talking again."


    Benjamin handed her his coat and walked under a sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the moonlight.


    Everest was in her own world.


    Benjamin squatted down next to her, looking lovingly at Everest.


    Her hair was tea-colored, slightly curly, and fluffy, hanging over her shoulders.


    Her small face was petite and pointed, very tender. Her pair of eyes were like ck grapes, her nose


    was straight and delicate, and her little mouth was pursed, obviously unhappy.


    Her tender little hand was pulling at the osmanthus leaves, plucking them down one by one.


    Benjamin tried talking to her, but she paid him no mind.


    Completely immersed in her own world!


    Benjamin didn''t take her back inside, just squatting beside her. At half-past ten, the little girl suddenly


    came out of her world and threw herself into his arms. "Today a kid said I don''t have a mom!"


    Benjamin took the little girl back home.


    He patted her little head. "Our Everest has a mom... She''s just like you, a little fairy!"


    He set the little girl down at the dining table.


    The maid immediately set the tes and bowls, bringing hot food. Everest was starving. She held her


    bowl and dug in with a spoon, eating messily.


    After eating, she remembered and looked at Benjamin. "I want a mom! Other kids have one, I want one


    too!"


    Benjamin carried Everest upstairs.


    Everest insisted on running her own bath water, and after the bath, she snuggled into her dad''s arms,


    smelling fresh.


    Benjamin helped her dry her hair.


    He looked quite affectionate. "Everest, if you want a mom, you have to fight for it yourself!"


    Everest felt something was wrong!


    If she had to find her own mom, then what did she need her dad for?


    Benjamin was calm. "Dad is nning to send you to learn piano... Hmm, there are many beautiful


    female teachers there. Look for someone whose hair color is the same as yours and is good-looking,


    and choose her to be your mom! Let''s make this clear in advance. Don''t say your name is Everest, and


    don''t tell anyone who your dad is!"


    Everest didn''t understand.


    Benjamin gave her a reasonable exnation. "If they know who your dad is, they will be enamored with


    me, and they won''t truly like Everest! For example, like Ms. Graham and Ms. Tucker before."


    Everest thought her dad was right!


    Before going to bed at night, the little one looked in the mirror... A woman with brown hair and as pretty


    as Everest was mom!


    ...


    Madelyn had actually stopped teaching.


    But early in the morning, Penelope in Oriapool specifically called her, saying that a friend''s child asked


    for her special care.


    Madelyn wanted to ask more.


    Penelope justughed it off. "I need to take my medication! Gotta hang up now!"


    After hanging up the phone, Madelyn felt a bit confused. She thought about it and still went to the


    music center.


    She asked at the front desk, and there was indeed such a person.


    The person''s identity was quite secretive, and Madelyn guessed it was the child of some important


    person, so she waited.


    Five in the afternoon.


    The receptionist came over and said with a smile, "Ms. Green, the child has arrived. You can go see


    them!"


    Madelyn didn''t pay much attention.


    She put down the report in her hand and walked into the reception room.


    The child was brought by a maid, surprisingly young, less than one meter tall.


    Madelyn wanted to refuse because the child was too young and not suitable for learning the piano. But


    when the child turned around, Madelyn felt her blood freeze.


    Brown hair, soft and small pretty face.


    Unbelievably beautiful!


    She looked like ... very like...


    Madelyn felt as if her throat was blocked, almost losing herposure. She reached out her trembling


    hand to touch the little one.


    Everest was even more excited!


    Everest stared at her brown hair, her pretty face, and her waist, legs... She looked so good, like a mom


    tailor-made for her!


    Everest generously allowed herself to be touched.


    Not only did she allow it, but she also snuggled into Madelyn''s arms.


    Her small pointed chin rested on Madelyn''s shoulder. "My name is Evie."


    Evie...


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    She was gripped by Everest,pletely unable to let go. But after the initial excitement, she still had to


    follow the procedure. "What''s your dad''s name?"


    Everest''s beautiful eyes shed tears.


    "My dad sells eggs, and people call him a swindler! My mom is no longer here... Dad is very busy. I


    have no one to take care of me!"


    In a few words, the image of a pitiful child was created.


    Madelyn felt extremely sorry.


    She helped the little one wipe away her tears and couldn''t help but kiss her. At that moment, she felt


    incredibly soft inside, but she also had a sense of guilt as if she had stolen something from someone


    else.


    Without a second thought, she decided to take Everest in.


    Everest one was too small, and she needed to hold her to sit at the piano.


    Everest nestled in her arms, her little face overflowing with joy. She didn''t hear a word of what Madelyn


    taught.


    Madelyn couldn''t mislead her students.


    So she was quite strict, asking Everest to demonstrate what she had just been taught.


    Everest responded with a nod.


    Two slender fingers swept over...


    Madelyn was astonished.


    This child, with a talent so high it was unimaginable, was the best student she had ever taught,


    surpassing even ... Madelyn herself as a child.


    As she was surprised, Everest, with her brown curls, politely asked, "Ms. Green, is this how it''s done?"


    Ms. Green...


    For some reason, Madelyn suddenly remembered Benjamin.


    When they first met, he always jokingly called her Ms. Green...


    Madelyn thought she was overthinking.


    How could she think that Evie, who was in front of her, was rted to Benjamin? Their child... Madelyn


    didn''t dare to think further. She held Everest and continued to teach her some basic finger techniques.


    After the lesson.


    Everest was satisfied. Although learning the piano was dull, she was one step closer to her goal.


    Madelyn walked out of the piano room with her and handed her over to the maid.


    She was actually still reluctant to part. "Evie, see you next Friday!"


    Everest was very satisfied with her.


    She behaved well, allowing the maid to lead her downstairs.


    Madelyn really liked Everest, so she sent her downstairs. There was a ck, extended Lincoln parked


    on the first floor, noble and luxurious. Everest got in the car... She really wanted to bring her new mom


    home today.


    But she thought that Ms. Green might not be willing.


    So, she could only take it slow.


    Everest waved obediently, and the driver closed the door.


    On the other side of the back seat, Benjamin sat, looking respectable in a suit, flipping through files


    while casually asking, "Did you find her?"


    Everest climbed onto her dad''sp and said softly, "Dad, you like her!"


    Benjamin still pretended not to care. "Really? Is it that obvious?"


    Everest stopped talking.


    The little one quietlyy on her dad''s shoulder. After a long time, she asked very softly, "Dad... Is she


    my real mom?"


    Benjamin''s eyes suddenly moistened.


    He softly hummed in agreement.


    Everest snuggled into his chest. After a long time, she heard her dad say, "Don''t scare your mom yet,


    okay?"

 Chapter 226 Is Evies Dad Flirting with Her?

    Chapter 226 Is Evie''s Dad Flirting with Her?


    Chapter 226 Is Evie''s Dad Flirting with Her?


    Everest didn''t fully understand, but she nodded.


    Children didn''t know such things, and all she knew was that she was going to have a mom, and she


    was very happy, eating two bowls of rice for dinner.


    The maids were happy. "Little Evie is really great today!"


    Everest with her tea-colored curls, bargained with her dad, "If I see Ms. Green every day, I will eat two


    bowls of rice every day!"


    Benjamin sat on the sofa, dealing with business.


    Hearing this, he nced over lightly, "If you want to see Ms. Green, figure it out yourself!"


    Everest sniffled.


    She ran over and nestled into her dad''s arms. "Dad, you''re useless!"


    Benjamin didn''t say anything.


    He moved the files away, holding Everest, his chin resting on her soft tea-colored curls.


    His voice suddenly became hoarse. "Dad made her angry! Everest, can you bring mom home?"


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    Everesty on his shoulder.


    That seemed like agreement!


    She murmured, "I want to y the piano!"


    Benjamin looked at the vi. It seemed like he had forgotten to buy a piano, but his little treasure


    Everest wanted to y, so he drove her out himself.


    Half an hourter, a ck Maybach stopped under an apartment building!


    This apartment was still the same as before.


    When Benjamin missed Madelyn and had nowhere to vent, he woulde here alone, sit in the living


    room, quietly light a few cigarettes ... and then rush back when he felt better.


    He had to take care of Everest!


    After opening the door, Everest expressed her fondness for the ce.


    Benjamin said in a hoarse voice, "This is where Ms. Green and I fell in love. This Morningdew was


    originally a gift from dad to her, but she didn''t want it after dad made her angry!"


    Everest suddenly felt nervous. She looked up and asked, "Did she not want Everest either?"


    Benjamin squatted down.


    He looked at Everest and said very seriously, "She doesn''t know about you! She thought ... thought...


    Everest, she loves you a lot!"


    Everest didn''t quite understand.


    But she was born proud. "I also think if she knew she had such a cute baby, she would definitely not


    want to let go."


    Benjamin smiled faintly.


    He kissed the little one''s soft cheeks and ced her in front of the piano.


    Everest had only taken one lesson, but she had talent and yed well.


    Benjamin stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, watching Everest.


    White skirt, tea-colored hair, her back straight.


    He seemed to see Madelyn!


    Everest finished ying a simple piece and looked up for praise, but when she saw her dad''s gaze she


    froze... His eyes were so gentle!


    On the way back, Benjamin carried the little one downstairs.


    Everest thought Dad usually let her walk by herself, but today it was as if she didn''t have legs, he had


    to carry her!


    Huh!


    When old men fell in love, they were not normal!


    ...


    Benjamin really missed Madelyn.


    Previously when she was in Oriapool, he couldn''t see her and that was it, but now that she was in


    Gredax, he had to suppress his feelings, which he felt was very detrimental to his physical and mental


    health.


    Everest was in the bathroom, singing.


    Benjamin was half leaning on the sofa, looking somewhatnguid.


    He took Everest''s phone and began to send messages to Madelyn.


    "Ms. Green, this is Evie''s dad!"


    ...


    On the other end, Madelyn had just finished showering and received a message from a strange


    number. It turned out to be Evie''s dad. Her first impression of this swindler with a Lincoln car was not


    good.


    But he was Evie''s dad.


    Madelyn still needed tomunicate well with him. She tried to adopt a very professional attitude and


    discussed Evie''s piano progress with him, but the swindler seemed a bit distracted.


    Madelyn sent a question mark.


    After a while, Evie''s dad replied.


    "Evie said that Ms. Green is very pretty!"


    Madelyn felt a little offended!


    She hesitated for a moment, but still sent a message asking him to be respectful.


    Benjamin stared at those words and smiled lightly. His expression was somewhat joyful, as he could


    almost imagine Madelyn''s indignant look...


    It had been three years since they''d had contact.


    Even during the New Year, his greeting would sink to the bottom of the sea.


    But now, he could flirt with her under the identity of "Evie''s dad". For a man, it was quite stimting. At


    least, Benjamin enjoyed it quite a lot.


    Everest, wearing a onesie, came out of the bathroom.


    Benjamin calmly deleted all the chat messages. He held the little one and wiped her hair...


    ...


    Madelyn dreamt all night.


    She dreamed of Everest. For some reason, in the dream, Everest''s face ovepped with Evie''s, and


    even called her mom.


    Madelyn woke up from the dream.


    She sat quietly on the bed, not recovering for a long time.


    After a while, she gently touched her lower abdomen. It was here that she once carried Everest. Three


    years had passed, and almost all traces of Everest in this world had disappeared.


    Madelyn didn''t want to forget.


    She also couldn''t bear to forget.


    Early in the morning, she went to the rks'' Cemetery.


    Three years had passed.


    The cemetery had changed a lot. The old man who looked after the cemetery had also aged quite a bit.


    Seeing Madelyning over, he warmly greeted her and led her inside, talking a lot in the process.


    "A couple of years ago, Mr. rk nted many roses here! White roses, red roses... All imported from


    Italy. The entire cemetery was full of them!"


    Madelyn was also stunned.


    The tens of thousands of square meters of the cemetery, which used to be deste, had now turned


    into a rose garden.


    It was the blooming season.


    Because it was a private cemetery, outsiders were not allowed in. Many bloggers and influencers would


    shoot and narrate outside, and it was said to have be a popr check-in ce.


    Madelyn held a bouquet of daisies and stood in front of the small tip. It was different from before.


    A square stone tablet, about ten inches on each side, sunk into the ground, engraved with names.


    Benjamin & Madelyn.


    There was no mention of Everest''s name.


    Madelyn gently stroked it, her heart aching!


    This ce seemed less of a grave for a child who died young, and more like a love grave.


    She stood silently for a long time. The cemetery keeper probably knew she wasn''t feeling well and


    quietly said, "Mr. rkes here every Valentine''s Day and stays all day!"


    Valentine''s Day...


    Madelyn didn''t know why Benjamin would choose such days toe. She didn''t ask. She only quietly


    said, "Stop talking!"


    She gently ced the daisies and quietly left.


    Madelyn was in low spirits all day.


    When she gave birth to Everest, she suffered from severe depression. After taking medication for a


    year, she finally fully recovered, but the visit to the cemetery today had somewhat affected her mood.


    At noon, Vivian invited her for afternoon tea.


    Madelyn agreed after some thought, and arrived as promised. The ce was where they often drank


    coffee.


    Vivian was already waiting there.


    As Madelyn walked in, she hurriedly waved. "Over here!"


    Madelyn sat down, looking at Vivian in white professional attire. "Pretty good. Seems like you''re doing


    well in your career!"


    Vivian sighed. "Just hanging around with Grayson! You know me. I''m not very ambitious. I can''t make


    anything big happen. I''m just doing some idle work in thepany. It''s also good to keep an eye on


    Grayson to prevent him from messing around!"


    Madelyn smiled. "Grayson has really settled down!"


    Vivian yed with her hair. "Mainly also to find something to do. Too idle at home!"


    Madelyn didn''t ask any more. It wasn''t appropriate to inquire about other couples'' private lives.


    She slowly sipped her coffee...


    Vivian had been friends with her for many years and was observant. "Looking at you, you''ve entangled


    with Benjamin again, yourplexion is off!"

 Chapter 227 Will You Keep Me Company?

    Chapter 227 Will You Keep Me Company?


    Chapter 227 Will You Keep Me Company?


    Madelyn chuckled in denial. "No!"


    She hesitated for a moment, told the story about Evie, and then spoke softly, "Vivian, I know I shouldn''t,


    but I just can''t help but want to take care of this child! She looks so much like her, and even her name


    is Evie."


    Vivian also thought it was unbelievable.


    What were the odds of such a coincidence in this world?


    And the child came out of nowhere, without a mother...


    Vivian thought it was imusible. She took a serious tone and said, "You must be missing Everest too


    much! Madelyn, try again. Perhaps there is someone out there for you!"


    For three years, Madelyn had been single.


    Vivian felt guilty and anxious.


    Madelyn, on the other hand, was not in a hurry. She was about to say something when her phone


    rang...


    The call was from the same number asst night, but it was Evie who made the call, with a sweet


    voice. "Ms. Green, I miss you!"


    Madelyn''s expression immediately softened. "I miss you too!"


    Everest continued to be affectionate. "I want to meet you!"


    Madelyn hesitated.


    Meeting students on non-school days was against the rules, so she refrained for a while before


    reluctantly refusing. "How about we meet on Friday?"


    Everest seemed disappointed.


    She did not cry, but weakly said, "Dad isn''t home! I''m so lonely all by myself. Ms. Green, can you keep


    mepany?"


    Madelyn immediately softened.


    Vivian, who was next to her, also heard it, and she was taken aback!


    Who could resist such a naughty little thing?


    Sure enough, Madelyn was already asking where she was.


    Everestughed happily. "Ms. Green, look outside!"


    Madelyn was surprised.


    She looked out of the cafe with her phone in hand, and saw a stretch Lincoln parked at the cafe


    entrance, with its rear door open.


    Evie was sitting in the car.


    Dressed in a small floral dress, she looked at Madelyn obediently and softly.


    Madelyn immediately got up. "Vivian, I''m leaving first!"


    Vivian watched in astonishment.


    This looked like a trap, and Madelyn was firmly caught.


    ...


    Madelyn got in the car.


    She didn''t know why, but she felt a familiar masculine scent in the car, a faint smell of tobo, with a


    hint of pine.


    As she furrowed her brows, Everest had already voluntarily sat on herp.


    The driver in front also smiled, "Ms. Green, Little Evie wants to eat a kid''s meal. I''ll take you there!"


    Madelyn immediately thanked him.


    When she looked down, the little thing had already hugged her, as if fearing that she would run away.


    Madelyn felt a softness in her heart.


    This child must havecked familialpanionship in her growing up.


    She thought of the man who sold eggs and felt even more suspicious. He was probably out having


    affairs and leaving the child at home uncared for.


    The Lincoln stopped.


    Everest pulled Madelyn out of the car and eagerly walked into the fried chicken shop.


    Madelyn felt that too much fast food was not good for children, so she sat down and carefully selected


    the healthier options. Her eyes were especially gentle as she picked...


    Everest rested her chin in her hands, watching with a satisfied expression on her face.


    "Mom is so beautiful!" she thought.


    Later, when eating fried chicken, Madelyn took great care of her. Everest thought to herself, "This must


    be what it feels like to have a mom!"


    She felt progress was too slow.


    If she could just call her Ms. Green every day, when could Madelyne to her house, and stay with


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    her for the night? And stay with dad for the night?


    Everest squeezed her eyes.


    Her big eyes immediately filled with tears.


    She pulled on Madelyn''s sleeve, pitifully. "Ms. Green, can you be my mom?"


    Madelyn was clearly taken aback.


    Everest moved her chair and snuggled up to her, the little one''s voice filled with grievance. "Dad is very


    busy, and there are a lot ofdies who want to date him. Dad is so handsome. A lot of people want to


    be my mom. Ms. Green, do you want to be my mom?"


    Madelyn confirmed that Evie''s father was quite a yer!


    She felt especially sorry for her, touched the little one. "But you can''t just find a mom for yourself!"


    Everest snuggled into her arms and let out a slight smile. "But dad said, if I like her, she can be my


    mom! Ms. Green, there is a parent-teacher conference next week. Can you be my mom for once?"


    Madelyn let out a sigh of relief.


    So that was what it was... She was... overthinking!


    She pondered for a moment, thinking that this matter must be approved by that important figure. After


    all, Evie was his daughter.


    She said gently, "I will talk to your dad about it."


    After her performance, Evie happily enjoyed some fried chicken. After finishing, she actually wanted to


    stay at Madelyn''s ce, but no amount of coaxing could persuade her.


    From Madelyn''s perspective, this was already crossing the line.


    Although she was Evie''s teacher, essentially she was still a stranger. Evie''s dad was indeed audacious,


    allowing his daughter to spend time with a stranger, without fearing that the child might get hurt.


    She decided to have a serious talk with him.


    At eight o''clock in the evening, Madelyn took the child home.


    Once she returned home, she made a call and asked Evie to pass the phone to her father.


    Little Evie sprawled on her pink little bed, her belly round and full from eating. She was incredibly


    satisfied. She took the phone and tossed it to Benjamin, smiling with her eyes squinted. "My Ms. Green


    wants to talk to you."


    How could Benjamin possibly answer?


    If he revealed his identity now, Madelyn would probably turn around and leave, and even sue him for


    custody.


    He needed a buffer period.


    To make her reluctant to part with Everest, to allow them more time to develop their rtionship.


    He hung up the phone, took his mobile to his bedroom, and sent Madelyn a message on WhatsApp,


    exining that he was in a video conference.


    Madelyn seriously discussed the child''s situation with him, and finally hinted that as a father, he should


    reduce his dating time and spend more time with his child.


    Benjaminmunicated with her seriously.


    His tone gave Madelyn a false impression! They seemed like a couple!


    But he didn''tst long before he fell back into his old habits and directly issued an invitation. "Ms.


    Green, I really want to see you!"


    His tone was quite flirting.


    Madelyn snapped back to reality.


    This father was always teasing her.


    All serious and non-serious words, to him, were merely ways to flirt with women.


    Madelyn was quite upset!


    She endured and endured until she could endure no more, and sent a message.


    [Evie''s dad, I don''t know if you talk like this with every woman, but it''s detrimental to the child''s growth!]


    Benjamin looked at that message, his lips curving in a shallow smile.


    She seemed to be angry!


    He appeased her: [Ms. Green, I apologize!]


    Madelyn didn''t reply, clearly upset.


    Benjamin hadn''t felt like this for a long time, he couldn''t help but send another message: [Don''t be


    angry, okay?]


    Of course, Madelyn didn''t reply.


    Benjamin looked at the messages they had sent, his body feeling hot. This was a feeling he hadn''t had


    for a long time.


    He missed her, and he wanted her.


    For three years, he was busy taking care of Little Evie, busy with his career.


    For three years, he hadn''t had a woman by his side, let alone satisfying his physical needs, which were


    few and far between.


    Now, just looking at the messages Madelyn sent, he was getting quite impatient!


    Benjamin couldn''t help himself.


    His jaw slightly lifted, his narrow eyes squinting, his mind full of sexy scenes of him and Madelyn. At his


    most impatient, his Adam''s apple bobbed up and down, making a husky sound...

 Chapter 228 Any Man These Years?

    Chapter 228 Any Man These Years?


    Chapter 228 Any Man These Years?


    Benjamin was busy.


    On the other end, Madelyn was quite angry, her female intuition telling her that this parent had that kind


    of thoughts towards her.


    To maintain a distance, Madelyn postponed the parent-teacher meeting, and when she called Little


    Evie, the little one sounded particrly disappointed. Over the phone, Madelyn could imagine her


    looking downcast.


    Just thinking about it, Madelyn felt distressed.


    But she couldn''t just outright say, "It''s because your father sexually harassed me!"


    As Madelyn hung up the phone, a call from Keh came in.


    Madelyn was surprised. "Uncle, are you in Gredax?"


    Keh was clearly taken aback.


    But having been immersed in high-level situations for many years, he quickly said, "I came to visit your


    mother (Cam), and also found an authoritative expert for her! What, do you have a problem with your


    uncle having some free time?"


    How could Madelyn disagree given the familial ties?


    Keh changed the subject, his tone more casual. "You''re free tomorrow night, right? Come and


    have dinner with your uncle."


    Madelyn, wanting to change her mood, agreed.


    At eight o''clock the next evening, she arrived at the appointed private dining restaurant.


    Only when she arrived did she find out this was a blind date.


    Besides her Uncle Keh, there was a very dignified older woman, and sitting next to her was


    presumably her son, handsome and cultured.


    Seeing Madelyn arrive, Keh ended his conversation and introduced her with a smile, "This is my


    niece, Madelyn!"


    Madelyn could not lose face for him.


    She gave a small smile, greeted everyone, and sat down.


    The woman was an old colleague of Keh, and didn''t ask too many questions, being quite gentle.


    Keh then introduced the man.


    The man, 28 years old, a graduate of a prestigious British university, was engaged in biological


    research.


    The man was very attentive, clearly quite smitten with Madelyn, which made her feel quite pressured.


    She looked towards Keh.


    Keh smirked ambiguously.


    In fact, he didn''t arrange this blind date. It was set up by his old colleague''s son who liked Madelyn and


    had requested it himself.


    Madelyn had no choice but tomunicate with the man. However, what she didn''t know was that


    Benjamin was also in this restaurant at the moment.


    He was there to treat an important client who hade to Gredax for dinner.


    Just as he was discussing the key points, he saw Madelyn arriving... for a blind date!


    He recognized the old woman.


    She was Ximena Gavin, Keh''s old colleague, who held a high position.


    Oscar Gavin, the only child of his family and a year younger than Madelyn, was gazing at Madelyn with


    adoration.


    In such a blind date situation, they were just waiting for Madelyn''s approval.


    Benjamin became a little uneasy, staring at Madelyn''s expression, as if he wanted to pry into her


    thoughts!


    He wasn''t fearless, as he had been separated from Madelyn for so long...


    Benjamin''s gaze was gloomy and uncertain.


    After Madelyn went to the bathroom, he decisively stood up. "Sorry, I''m going to the bathroom!"


    ...


    Madelyn was washing her hands slowly.


    She didn''t really want to go back to eat. It was a lot of stress.


    Benjamin appeared silently behind her, leaning against the wall, watching her quietly.


    She looked so beautiful tonight.


    White shirt, beige knee-length skirt, a pair of slender and straight legs.


    Over her upper body, she wore a beige cape.


    Originally, Madelyn''s appearance was his aesthetic, and after three years, she was even more


    attractive to him.


    Benjamin looked at her from top to bottom, and thenzily said. "Are you here for a blind date? How is


    it going?"


    Madelyn was visibly stunned.


    She didn''t expect to meet Benjamin here.


    Their gazes met in the mirror, both somewhat ambiguous.


    After a while, Madelyn turned off the faucet.


    She said slowly, "Not bad! He''s a nice guy!"


    Benjamin lit a cigarette, inhaled slowly, and smirked. "He looks younger than you! So, now you like


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    young boys? Nics doesn''t meet your aesthetic?"


    His words were full of jealousy and sarcasm.


    Madelyn quietly countered, "What does it have to do with you what I like?"


    Benjamin inhaled a puff of smoke deeply.


    In the past, his smoking had always attracted her, especially when his cheeks hollowed out. Now, it


    added a mature charm, which was even more appealing to women... Madelyn took an extra nce.


    Benjamin smirked. "Sorry, I forgot we''re divorced!"


    Madelyn tried to bypass him.


    But he caught her arm, gently pulled her, and pressed her against the wall.


    Her soft body was pressed against his.


    Almost instantly, Madelyn could feel something was off with his body. She was both shy and angry,


    "Benjamin, you said it yourself. We''re divorced... What are you doing?"


    Benjamin trapped her and she couldn''t avoid him.


    He lowered his head, his forehead against hers, his prominent nose gently rubbing against hers, all


    hinting at his intentions, causing Madelyn''s breath to quicken...


    She turned her face away. "Benjamin, let me go!"


    But his gaze was deep. "These past few years, have you been with any other men?"


    Madelyn''s face turned red.


    This was a public ce. He was utterly shameless!


    Seeing her reaction, Benjamin guessed the answer. His one hand held her waist and kept sliding up


    and down. His words were indecent. "Do you remember thest time we made love? You cried several


    times!"


    Madelyn couldn''t bear it any longer!


    She pped him. "Despicable!"


    Benjamin didn''t seem to mind her p.


    He touched his handsome cheek and smirked ambiguously, with a hint of mockery. "As I''ve said before,


    you''ll always fight back with me... Madelyn, hitting me just proves you know I''ll spoil you!"


    Madelyn''s face turned cold.


    She knew he wanted to reconcile. Benjamin was too smart. He knew that if he behaved as usual,


    sending flowers and inviting her to dinner, she would definitely ignore him, so he simply chose to


    directly harass her.


    To put it bluntly, he was using himself to seduce her.


    Women also have desires, and Benjamin was the man who knew her body best and had slept with her


    countless times... But Madelyn didn''t want this! It was impossible for her to have a rtionship with him


    again!


    She said very seriously, "Benjamin, I''ll say it again. It''s impossible between us!"


    After saying that, she took advantage of his surprise and pushed him away.


    Benjamin caught up with her, tangled with her...


    Just as she was about to leave, Keh''s voice rang out, "Yo, what''s going on here!"


    The atmosphere was awkward...


    Keh looked Benjamin up and down, sneering inwardly.


    Madelyn felt ufortable and lowered her head. "Uncle, I''ll go out first!"


    Keh smiled. "Well, just in time to greet Mrs. Gavin. Just now, Oscar asked for your phone number. I


    saw he was very sincere, so I gave it to him! Not happy? Having more options isn''t a bad thing for a


    girl!"


    Madelyn didn''t know what to say.


    In front of Benjamin, she couldn''t possibly say no. That would make it seem like she was refusing


    because of him.


    Keh took Madelyn away.


    After saying goodbye to Mrs. Gavin and Oscar, Keh invited Madelyn to ride in his car, intending to


    send her home.


    Once in the car, Madelyn was about to refuse.


    Keh then said, "Oscar has met you a few times and likes you quite a bit. He is good... As for the


    results, I will respect your decision!"

 Chapter 229 Evie is Everest!

    Chapter 229 EvieisEverest!


    Chapter 229 Evie is Everest!


    Madelyn did not consider it.


    She whispered softly, "Uncle, I don''t have any ns for now!"


    Keh sighed. "Still can''t forget Benjamin, can you?"


    Madelyn shook her head slightly.


    After a while, she looked out at the night view and murmured, "Uncle, I don''t know if it''s right or wrong


    toe back this time! Three years have passed. No matter how unforgettable our past is, I should


    have forgotten him..."


    But Benjamin wouldn''t let go.


    He had a very obvious desire to possess her.


    Madelyn could feel it. If she dared to marry another man, he could do something very disgraceful.


    She decided to wait until Cam''s health improved, then take her abroad.


    She wanted to stay away from Benjamin!


    Seeing her expression, Keh guessed what she was thinking. He felt both frustrated and amused.


    Benjamin, that guy, was indeed quite shameless.


    Take these past few years, for example. Even though he had divorced Madelyn, he still went to visit the


    Ryan family in Vadiff to celebrate the New Year every year... This year, he even brought his child, which


    scared the olddy at home.


    The olddy cried all night, and the rascal knelt beside her all night.


    So now, Keh also turned a blind eye. After all, Benjamin had saved Everest, raised her from


    infancy to the age of three.


    Given this, Keh felt he could still be redeemed.


    Keh wanted to probe, so he casually asked, "If Everest was still alive back then, Madelyn, what


    would you choose?"


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Over the years, she never dared to think "what if..."


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    She didn''t answer. She just quietly looked out the car window. But in her mind, she thought of the rose


    garden and the stone tablet with the names "Benjamin & Madelyn" on it.


    These were all mysteries.


    Madelyn trembled slightly, she suddenly turned her head. "Uncle!"


    Keh waved his hand with a smile. "I was just asking."


    Madelyn was somewhat disappointed, but a seed of doubt was nted in her heart. She thought about


    her two encounters with Benjamin after returning to the country... He was incredibly bold!


    Evie!


    Yes! And Evie''s shameless father!


    [Evie says Ms. Green is very pretty!]


    [Ms. Green, I really want to meet you.]


    [Don''t be angry... Okay?]


    ...


    Madelyn felt a chill throughout her body.


    Her face gradually turned pale, she grabbed Keh''s arm, her voice trembling. "Uncle, is Everest...


    still alive?"


    Keh quietly told the driver to stop the car.


    The driver got out of the car and went to a distance to smoke.


    In the car, only the two of them remained. It was so quiet that one could hear the beating of their


    hearts. Keh softly said, "You''ve already met her!"


    Madelyn slowly let go of her hand!


    Evie ... was Everest!


    Evie, the child she gave birth to three years ago, was still here!


    Madelyn burst into tears, her voice suppressed, her whole body tense...


    Keh gently patted her head and whispered, "We didn''t want to tell you earlier! Firstly, Everest''s


    condition was unstable for the first two years... We were afraid that you would be hurt again, and


    secondly, we all wanted you to fully recover."


    Tears streamed down Madelyn''s face. "I want to see her now! Uncle, I want now!"


    Keh, being experienced, responded calmly. "If you go now, are you prepared to reconcile with


    Benjamin? Madelyn... No matter what decision you make, I will respect it. After all, he has indeed paid


    a lot for this child! But I hope that you are with him because you still like him, not because of the child."


    Keh knew it would be hard for her to restrain herself.


    After all, it was her own flesh and blood, and she longed to love and yet had to restrain.


    He gave Madelyn time.


    Keh also got out of the car. He walked under the streetmp in the night and lit a cigarette.


    While smoking, he opened his palm.


    A red mark was grotesquely clinging, the pinkish color indicating that the wound was less than two


    years old.


    Keh tilted up his handsome jawline and squinted his eyes slightly. On such a humid night, he would


    somewhat remember someone, a woman who had disappeared from his life for almost two years...


    ...


    Madelyn cried in the car for a long time.


    Deep into the night.


    Keh hadn''t returned yet, and she was sitting alone in the car. Finally remembering that she had a


    phone, she dialed Benjamin''s number...


    The call went through, but he didn''t speak.


    They were silent for a long time, and then Madelyn asked in a hoarse voice, "Benjamin... What... What


    did you bury in the cemetery back then?"


    ...


    On the other end of the line, there came a faint intake of breath.


    Clearly, Benjamin had guessed that she knew the truth.


    He was silent again for about half a minute, then opened his mouth hoarsely, "It was a wedding ring!


    Madelyn, it was our wedding ring!"


    He wanted to say something else...


    But Madelyn hung up the phone.


    She sat quietly in the back seat of the car, feeling her heart graduallying back to life.


    Her Everest was still around!


    She was so adorable that Madelyn wanted to hold her in her arms and shower her with love right now.


    Madelyn dialed Everest''s number.


    Everest was still awake, and she was sulking and wouldn''t speak first.


    Madelyn''s voice trembled slightly. "Evie, would it be okay if Ms. Green picks you up from school


    tomorrow?"


    Everest weakly retorted, "Parent-teacher meeting is over! ...Oh... Aren''t you afraid of my pervert dad


    anymore?"


    Madelyn thought this tune was so familiar!


    How did Benjamin teach her?


    Now, full of maternal love, Madelyn didn''t want to correct her. She gently, very gently said, "From now


    on, for every parent-teacher meeting, Ms. Green will attend for you, okay?"


    Everest suddenly sat up straight.


    But her tone seemed troubled. "Ms. Green, do you like my dad? If you do, you might have to wait in a


    long line..."


    Madelyn said softly, "I like Everest!"


    Everest became a bit embarrassed. After all, her mom was on the other end of the line, and her mom


    knew that she was her baby.


    Everest didn''t make a sound for a long time.


    Madelyn''s voice in the night became even gentler, "You know I''m your mom, don''t you?"


    Everest didn''t say a word.


    Her stubborn silence broke Madelyn''s heart.


    At this time, the car door was opened, and Keh''s gaze met hers.


    Madelyn whispered, "Uncle, I need to go!"


    Keh''s gaze was deep. He didn''t say anything. He just called a driver to take Madelyn there... On


    the way, he called Benjamin to let him know that Madelyn was on her way.


    The child was still young, and everyone felt that there shouldn''t be too muchmotion, fearing that it


    might scare Everest.


    Keh''s car took Madelyn there, and then he left.


    Inside the vi, everything was quiet, with only a few dim lights on.


    The maids must have been instructed. They saw Madelyn and respectfully called her "Madam".


    Madelyn didn''t bother to correct them. Her feelings were tooplicated. She quickly went upstairs,


    but the closer she got to her destination, the more homesick she felt.


    Benjamin was standing on the staircase.


    He was still dressed in a white shirt and ck trousers, but his hair was a bit messy.


    Madelyn passed by him.


    He reached out and grabbed her, whispering, "She threw a tantrum and is sleeping now. Let''s not wake


    her. Let''s talk..."

 Chapter 230 Madelyn, I Miss You So Much!

    Chapter 230 Madelyn, I Miss You So Much!


    Chapter 230 Madelyn, I Miss You So Much!


    But Madelyn didn''t have the mood to talk.


    She knew clearly what he wanted to discuss, nothing more than wanting to get back together with her.


    After all they''d been through, and three years since their divorce...


    Madelyn''s feelings had cooled. She didn''t hate him as much as before, but the love she once had for


    him had also vanished.


    But because of Everest, she wanted to stay peacefully with him.


    She whispered, "I want to see her first!"


    Under the dim light.


    The hand that he was clutching gently loosened, and then he whispered, "Go! Just don''t wake her."


    Madelyn made a soft sound of agreement and walked past him to go upstairs.


    After she was far away, Benjamin looked down at his palm, which still held the residual warmth of


    Madelyn, a warmth he yearned for.


    ...


    On the second floor, in front of the child''s bedroom.


    Madelyn''s fingersnded on the doorknob. She hesitated for a moment, then gently pushed the door


    open.


    Everest was indeed sleeping.


    In the light pink bedroom, a bedsidemp was on, the little girl was sleeping on her side, her small


    mouth slightly open, exhaling sweet breaths.


    Madelyn''s heart was both aching and tender.


    She sat by the bed, extended her slender fingers, and gently stroked Everest.


    She could never touch enough!


    For three years, she had been absent from this child''s life, especially the two years when Everest was


    lying in theb. She was not there as a mother.


    Guilt overwhelmed her.


    Even though she knew that Benjamin was trying to do what was best for her at the time, she still hated


    him.


    Tears slipped from the corners of Madelyn''s eyes. She didn''t wipe them away, but bent down and


    kissed her Everest.


    Everest looked like her.


    Yet her temperament was entirely inherited from Benjamin.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but lie down and hold Everest, smelling the faint scent of milk on her. Her heart


    gradually calmed down, as if at this moment, all the pain was being soothed.


    Benjamin stood at the door, silently watching them.


    He knew he should give Madelyn time to adjust, but he couldn''t help himself.


    He desperately wanted to get close to her.


    It wasn''t just about desire, but wanting to have this person, and after three years, he wanted to know if


    she still wanted him!


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Benjamin turned off the light.


    The bedroom suddenly plunged into darkness, and Madelyn was taken aback.


    Next, the soft mattress beside her sank deeply, and Benjamin propped himself above her. In the dim


    light, neither of them could see each other clearly...


    Madelyn lowered her voice. "Benjamin, you''re insane!"


    He stared at her.


    Then under her gaze, he lowered his head and kissed her. Madelyn was caught off guard as he


    explored her lips, gently teasing...


    They hadn''t been intimate for a long time.


    Benjamin was clearly much less adept than before, but he teased her based on memory, trying to make


    herfortable.


    Madelyn pushed him.


    But Everest was sleeping next to them, and any loud noises might wake her. She didn''t want the child


    to witness this. As she hesitated, Benjamin held her face and began to deeply kiss her...


    Madelyn couldn''t escape, and in desperation, she bit him.


    Benjamin pulled away.


    In the darkness, his dark eyes locked onto hers and he said hoarsely, "Madelyn, you responded just


    now! You still feel something for my body!"


    Madelyn''s breathing was chaotic.


    At this point, their situation was very embarrassing. Even her every breath had to brush against his


    body. She was both shy and angry. "Benjamin, didn''t you say we were going to talk in the study? What


    is this?"


    He leaned his body down.


    His face rested on her neck, and he was silent for a long time.


    Finally, he said, "Madelyn, I miss you so much! I admit I want you. I want to sleep with you. No man


    doesn''t want to make love to the woman he loves after being apart for a few years!"


    Madelyn''s mind cleared somewhat.


    She kicked him. "Get off! We''re divorced!"


    She thought he would insist on staying, but surprisingly, he gently moved his body away, not forcing


    her.


    It had almost gone too far.


    Madelyn went to the bathroom to freshen up, then went to the study to talk to him.


    There was too much they needed to discuss.


    Everest''s past, present, and future.


    As parents, even if they were divorced, these things needed to be considered.


    ...


    Clearly, Benjamin was also prepared for a long talk with her.


    As Madelyn entered the room, he was making coffee. Hearing her footsteps, he casually said, "Still


    Mandheling, right?"


    Madelyn nodded and took a seat on the sofa.


    She watched his back.


    This was the first time she had really observed Benjamin since they had met again. He was still as


    handsome as ever, but more reserved in his demeanor, except when he was being shameless, he was


    just as he had always been.


    Benjamin ced the coffee in front of her.


    He took a thick file from the bookshelf and handed it to her to read. Madelyn had been warned by


    Keh, but when she took the file, her fingers still couldn''t help trembling.


    The night was deep.


    Madelyn flipped through the pages one by one, and he apanied her.


    As the sky began to brighten, Madelyn closed the file, her face full of fatigue.


    Benjamin''s handsome face fell into memory, and he whispered, "At the beginning, you were not well,


    and I was afraid you wouldn''t be able to bear it! Later, Everest got better, but the first two years were


    very tough! Until this year, Everest has been basically stable. Even though she has some minor issues,


    she will grow up healthy!"


    Madelyn gently put down the file.


    She looked at him and murmured, "The minor issues you mentioned. What are they?"


    It was hard for Benjamin to speak, "Autism, coagtion disorder, oh, and... She''s got a rare blood


    type!"


    As he said these things, he was also a bit dazed.


    Madelyn was even more bewildered.


    Her slender fingers dug into her flesh, unable to believe what she had just heard. Her heart ached


    terribly.


    Benjamin came up behind her.


    He gently embraced her, resting his chin on her thin shoulder. "Madelyn, let''s start over! This time, I will


    be a good husband and father, and I won''t disappoint you again!"


    He knew she wouldn''t agree easily.


    But he couldn''t help but say, "Such a night is suitable for courtship."


    Madelyn refused without even thinking.


    She restrained herself and calmly said, "Benjamin, it''s impossible between us! I won''t fight with you for


    custody rights, because Everest is the child you brought up. I can''t hurt her feelings, so the best way is


    for us to raise her together! We can allocate time... I''m okay with all of this. It''s up to you!"


    Benjamin''s heart suddenly chilled.


    Madelyn had even nned the allocation of time, didn''t get angry with him, and didn''t even p him.


    He''d rather she pped him!


    With this kind of atmosphere, it was not good for him to tempt her again, so he had to step back. "Let''s


    talk about itter! Spend some time with Everest first! By the way, Everest goes for a review of her


    autism every month. Let''s go together next time!"


    Madelyn didn''t refuse.


    She was Everest''s mother, and the night before when she stepped into this vi, she knew she would


    lose some of her freedom.


    But she had no regrets.


    Madelyn also had her own selfishness. She tentatively said, "Benjamin, I... I don''t n to get married. If


    you n to marry again, why not let me raise her? I promise not to go abroad, and you can see her


    anytime you want!"

 Chapter 231 I See Daddy Kiss Mommy

    Chapter 231 I See Daddy Kiss Mommy


    Chapter 231 I See Daddy Kiss Mommy


    Benjamin wasughing in anger.


    He walked back to his position opposite her, picked up the cold coffee and slowly finished it.


    After he finished, he put down the cup andughed sarcastically.


    "So, I should frequently visit your ce to see the kid?


    "asionally, when the weather is bad, should I stay over there?


    "Madelyn... You can control yourself. I''m afraid I can''t control myself. If the news gets out that the CEO


    of Everest Group has kept in contact with his ex-wife all the time, it will affect my reputation and


    marriage!"


    ...


    He was talking nonsense, and Madelyn was furious.


    Damn it!


    She didn''t want to talk to him anymore. It was pointless anyway!


    At this moment, the clock downstairs struck seven.


    It was seven o''clock in the morning!


    Benjamin checked the time and said to Madelyn. "You need to take a bath and change your clothes,


    then we''ll take Everest to school together!"


    His expression was somewhat tender. "She''ll definitely be very happy!"


    When it came to the child, Madelyn was mostlypliant.


    She insisted on taking a bath in the guest room, but didn''t think it was necessary to change her clothes.


    However, after taking the bath, she changed her mind.


    Her period started.


    There were faint traces of blood on her beige dress.


    Madelyn stayed in the bathroom for a while, and Benjamin came to knock on the door. "Are you done,


    Madelyn? Everest will wake up in a while. She''ll definitely be angry if she doesn''t see you..."


    It might even trigger her autism!


    Madelyn was quite anxious.


    She put on her original clothes and cracked the door open. Considering that they had been husband


    and wife before, it wasn''t that hard to ask. "Do you have any sanitary pads here? And women''s


    clothes?"


    Benjamin''s gaze was profound.


    He looked at her up and down. Then he slowly said, "Why would I have such things here? I haven''t had


    a woman in my life for these past years, let alone women''s clothes."


    Madelyn bit her lip. "I don''t need your loyalty! How am I supposed to go out now?"


    Benjamin stared at her for a while. Then he said, "Wait a moment!"


    There should be a maid around forty years old in the house who hasn''t gone through menopause.


    As for clothes, Benjamin picked out a ck shirt from his wardrobe and grabbed a pair of sports shorts.


    The maid brought her own sanitary pads, and her face was slightly red. "I don''t know if thedy can get


    used to it!"


    Benjamin looked at it. It was the brand Madelyn used to use.


    He smiled faintly. "She used it before."


    With this smile, the maid was quite surprised.


    She had heard people say before that Mr. rk and his wife had divorced and it was quite unpleasant


    at that time. They all thought the couple would never get along, but they didn''t expect thedy toe


    overst night and Mr. rk to be in such a good mood.


    Benjamin went directly into the guest room.


    Madelyn was in the bathroom and felt a bit ufortable in her lower abdomen. After giving birth, she


    wasn''t the same as before, and she would feel some pain during her period.


    She took the clothes and quickly changed.


    When she came out, she didn''t expect Benjamin to still be there. He was sitting on the living room


    couch, refreshing news on his phone.


    As Madelyn approached, he looked up.


    She was wearing his ck shirt, the hem covering her sports shorts, exposing a pair of slender legs.


    Around her waist, she tied her own thin belt.


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apple bobbed slightly. And he said hoarsely, "You look quite good!"


    Madelyn was about to find a bag to put her clothes in, but Benjamin casually said, "Let the maid wash


    it!"


    For such a private matter, Madelyn couldn''t possibly let someone else do it.


    Besides, this was Benjamin''s house.


    She insisted on finding aundry bag, but before she found one, Everest woke up. Running around


    barefooted to find her mom, she finally found her in the guest room, ran into her arms and couldn''t


    move.


    Madelyn held the soft little girl.


    She kissed her, picked her up, warmed her little feet with one hand while walking and chastising her


    with concern. "You''re not allowed to walk barefoot in the future, understand?"


    Everest nestled in her mother''s neck, not speaking.


    Benjamin wanted to let Everest down, but Madelyn was unwilling to do so. She carried Everest back to


    the children''s room and helped her dress.


    From the hallway outside, came Everest''s soft voice. "Are mom and dad going to take me to school


    together today?"


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Then sheughed softly, "Yes! Mom and dad will take Everest to school together."


    Guest room.


    Benjamin walked into the bathroom, Madelyn''s clothes were in theundry basket. There was a faint


    blood stain on the beige dress.


    He was born noble and only washed his own clothes when studying abroad.


    Let alone a woman''s blood-stained clothes.


    But Benjamin really cared about Madelyn, he was willing to wash her clothes. He quickly cleaned her


    dress, shirt, and underwear, then put them in the dryer.


    After it was dry, he felt unspeakably soft.


    Although Madelyn had not let go, they had a child together. He didn''t believe she wouldn''t soften...


    Benjamin slowly descended the stairs.


    With Madelyn taking care of Everest, he could finally enjoy a cup of coffee and read the morning


    newspaper.


    Thisfort made him somewhat dazed.


    Perhaps... This is happiness!


    This feeling, even better thanst night when he kissed Madelyn, touched her body! Of course, if given


    the choice, Benjamin would still prefer to kiss and make love with her.


    ...


    Children''s bedroom.


    Everest''s usual little personality was all gone.


    Madelyn chose a small floral dress for Everest, andbed her curly hair until it was fluffy, it felt


    especially soft to touch.Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    While putting on her shoes, Madelyn stroked her tender and white legs.


    A warm current passed through her heart.


    In fact, Benjamin had raised Everest very well, such a fragile little girl before, now she was white and


    tender.


    She was slightly lost in thought, and Everest kissed her.


    It was soft and warm.


    Madelyn really didn''t want to leave her, she kissed her again and again, then picked up the little one.


    "Let''s go downstairs for breakfast."


    She carried Everest downstairs.


    Benjamin saw and frowned slightly, "Why don''t you let her walk by herself?"


    Everest, hugging Madelyn''s neck and whispered, "Daddy is jealous of me!"


    Benjamin chuckled, "When your mom and I were affectionate, you didn''t even know where you were!"


    "On the bed!" Everest grinned, "I saw everythingst night! Dad kissed mom... Mom said no, but dad


    insisted mom had feelings!"


    ...


    Madelyn wished she could find a hole in the ground to hide.


    The servants in the house, those dusting vases and cleaning the floors, suddenly disappeared.


    Benjamin coughed lightly, "Everest!"


    Everest sat properly.


    She was usually disciplined by Benjamin, so she was quite obedient. She didn''t dare to stick to


    Madelyn and ask her mother to feed her during breakfast, but her eyes looked pitiful.


    Madelyn felt sorry for her.


    She couldn''t help but say to Benjamin, "She''s only four years old, there''s no need for her to be so


    independent."


    Benjamin said quite seriously: "She already eats by herself, washes her little clothes and socks, takes


    her own baths, there''s no need to let her regress just because you''re back."


    Everest was digging into her rice, looking unhappy.


    Madelyn didn''t insist.


    She stroked the little one''s head,forting her without words!


    Everest was anxious, "Use your charm! For example,st night''s situation, whatever mom says, dad


    will agree. If you kiss him again, he would even agree to get the moon for you!"


    Madelyn didn''t know her daughter''s little thoughts.


    After she finished breakfast, she went to find theundry bag with the maid. But Benjamin calmly said,


    "I''ve washed your clothes for you, they''ve been dried and put here for the next wash."


    Madelyn was surprised, her face burning.


    Those were her period-stained clothes, and Benjamin washed them?


    Everest, who was digging into her rice, suddenly jumped up!


    Dad was so double standard!


    "Mom is an adult, but dad is still willing to wash her clothes!"


    Benjamin red at her and continued reading the newspaper. "When you grow up, find a man to wash


    your clothes! If you can''t find one, wash them yourself!"

 Chapter 232 Not in a Relationship for Three Years

    Chapter 232 Not in a Rtionship for Three Years


    Chapter 232 Not in a Rtionship for Three Years


    Everest was quite dejected.


    But with mom and dad taking her to kindergarten together, she was happy again.


    Benjamin drove himself.


    In the back seat, Madelyn gently buckled Everest''s seat belt. She couldn''t help but touch her little head,


    her eyes simply did not want to move away.


    Everest was especially proud.


    She said she was such a lovely baby that everyone loved.


    On the way, she stretched out her tender little finger and told Madelyn about her friends in


    kindergarten.


    The friend she talked about most was Edward!


    Madelyn listened very seriously. This was her first time bing a mother, and after the experience of


    losing and regaining her child, her whole heart was upied by Everest. Unavoidably, she neglected


    her ex-husband!


    With his wife and daughter in the car, Benjamin focused on driving.


    Only at red lights would he look at Madelyn in the rearview mirror.


    She had her hair tied up today, a loose bun on her head, her side profile gentle and beautiful when she


    lowered her eyes. The sight of her slender, delicate neck was particrly appealing.


    Benjamin watched her attentively.


    When Madelyn raised her eyes inadvertently, she met his gaze in the rearview mirror. It was clearly the


    gaze of a man looking at a woman.


    Her face felt somewhat hot and she was a bit annoyed.


    Benjamin smiled lightly, with a slight hint of ambiguity.


    As the green light came on, he gently stepped on the gas. Half an hourter, the car stopped in front of


    a private high-end kindergarten.


    Benjamin got out of the car and went around to open the back door.


    He looked at Madelyn with a particrly tender gaze.


    Madelyn ignored his presence and unbuckled Everest''s safety belt, then took her out of the car.


    Everest was especially spirited today.


    She held her mother''s hand, then walked to her ss queue. Looking at this little one, Madelyn waved


    her hand to her!


    Everest raised her little face, "This is my mom!"


    She was not afraid that people wouldn''t believe her, because her mother also had brown hair and was


    very fair.


    You all must be jealous!


    Indeed, the surrounding kids were quite envious. Everest''s mom was really pretty!


    Her homeroom teacher came over and took Everest''s hand. Everest couldn''t help but repeat, " Ms.


    ke, this is my mom!"


    Ms. ke was under 40 and very loving.


    She knew the thoughts of the little kids, so she gently patted the little girl''s head and said, "Your mom is


    very pretty!"


    Everest''s vanity was satisfied.


    She decided to eat two bowls of rice today!


    This was Madelyn''s first time being a parent. She was very serious!


    She politely talked with Ms. ke about Everest''s situation, not even noticing when Benjamin walked


    to her side. Let alone his hand resting on her waist, being a bit restless!


    Ms. ke was quite surprised.


    The information showed that Everest''s parents were divorced, but they seemed very affectionate now!


    Benjamin smiled lightly, "Everest''s mom was working abroad before. In the future, Ms. ke, you can


    discuss Everest''s situation with her. Her phone number is..."


    Madelyn was slightly startled.


    Ms. ke had already smartly noted down the phone number.


    Mr. rk was a major sponsor of this private kindergarten. If he said Everest''s mom was working


    abroad, then she was working abroad. What he said went!


    Everest, holding Ms. ke''s hand, proudly said, "My mom''s name is Madelyn!"


    Ms. ke lovingly patted her little head.


    Madelyn didn''t want to disrupt the order, so she quickly waved goodbye to Everest. Everest, with her


    little backpack, walked with a swing in her step. Today was the happiest day she had since starting


    kindergarten.


    ...


    Madelyn stood for quite a while.


    Benjamin smiled lightly, "Get in the car, I''ll give you a ride!"


    Madelyn also wanted to talk to him, she hummed in agreement, and opened the car door.


    The car door was closed.


    Benjamin''s gaze was slightly deep. "Sit in the front passenger seat, it''s easier to talk!" He had already


    opened the passenger door as he spoke.


    It was a small matter. Madelyn didn''t want to argue with him, so she got in the car and sat down.


    Not long after, someone joined her!


    Benjamin turned his body, his gaze lightly sweeping over her slender and fair legs, his voice slightly


    hoarse. "Where to go?"


    Madelyn said in a gentle voice, "To the First Hospital!"


    Benjamin lightly stepped on the gas, and after driving for a while, he asked lightly, "Can I apany


    you to see mom?"


    Madelyn was used to his thick-skinned behavior.


    She coughed lightly, "She''s my mom, not yours!"


    Benjamin said good-naturedly, "So, should I call her aunt? But Madelyn, I''ve been calling her mom in


    the past few years, and she hasn''t objected!"


    "I object!"


    Benjamin didn''t argue with her, he just focused on driving.


    After a while, Madelyn softly said, "Benjamin, I think we should establish a new rtionship!"


    How could he not know what she was thinking?


    Benjamin didn''t speak.


    When they reached a red light, he took out a cigarette from the storagepartment then lit it. After


    taking a puff, he slowly blew out a smoke ring, then he turned to look at her. "What kind of new


    rtionship, let''s hear it!"


    Madelyn looked at him, "We co-parent Everest, without interfering in each other''s personal lives."


    Benjamin''s hand reached out of the car window, brushing off some ash from his cigarette.


    Then he smiled, "So... You''ve taken a liking to that Oscar guy? Oscar Gavin, right? Not bad looking!"


    Madelyn was somewhat irritated, "Benjamin, that''s not what I meant!"


    ...


    "Then what do you mean?"


    "Do you mean that we are both free to date, love, and sleep with other people?"


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t want to deal with him anymore!


    She turned her face away, not saying anything more.


    After these three years, Benjamin''s temper had improved a lot. If it had been before and she had gone


    on a blind date, he would definitely have been ovee by jealousy and caused some trouble, but


    things were different now.


    They were divorced.


    Actually, what Madelyn said was right. They really shouldn''t be interfering with each other.


    But Benjamin still loved her!


    Benjamin''s tone softened a bit, "Alright! I''ll cooperate!"


    Madelyn was quite surprised.


    She had actually already told her uncle that there was no possibility between her and Oscar, but


    Benjamin''s words were really unreasonable. Did personal life mean going on blind dates, dating, and


    sleeping with others?


    He backed down first, and Madelyn didn''t want to make their rtionship too tense either. After all, they


    still had to co-parent their child together.


    She said softly, "In a few days, I want to take Everest to stay at my ce for a while!"


    Benjamin snubbed out his cigarette, smiling lightly, "Of course you can! You''re her mother, you can take


    her to stay for as long as you want. But due to her special condition, it''s best not to leave Gredax!"


    Madelyn made a sound in agreement.


    Benjamin drove the car into the hospital. When the car stopped in the parking lot, he called out to


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    Madelyn.


    "Give me your phone!"


    Madelyn was a bit puzzled, but still handed over her phone. Benjamin lit another cigarette, held it in his


    lips, and then, using his phone as a reference, he recorded more than a dozen phone numbers into


    Madelyn''s phone.


    The phone number of a doctor from theb and the phone number of a doctor from the emergency


    department.


    The phone number of a psychiatrist and the phone number of a blood bank manager.


    Then the phone numbers of kindergarten teachers and principals.


    ...


    After inputting all the numbers, he handed the phone back to her. Madelyn stared, slightly lost in


    thought.


    Benjamin said very gently, "Madelyn, for these past three years, I haven''t had a personal life! Even the


    time I have to think of you is limited. Often when I think of you in the middle of the night, one phone call


    and I have to get dressed and rush to theb, because Everest is there..."

    Chapter 233 Just Introduce Him This Way: This Is My Ex-husband


    Chapter 233 Just Introduce Him This Way: This Is My Ex-husband


    Madelyn was stunned.


    Benjamin spoke in a husky whisper: "I''m not saying this to win your sympathy, but to tell you that if you


    "So, do you still want be Everest''s mother now?"


    ...


    These words made Madelyn inconsble deep down.


    How could she not want to be Everest''s mother?


    She stared at Benjamin, her chest heaving violently. She didn''t know what to say at this moment.


    Benjamin reached over and gently touched her face!


    He knew she was feeling uneasy but he still had to tell her this, because it would be really exhausting


    to raise little Everest, and he was actually afraid that she would me him.


    At that time, if he didn''t go to Monatiz, maybe she was still sleeping upstairs.


    Maybe Everest wouldn''t be so weak when she was born!


    Madelyn kept quiet for a long time, and she didn''t push Benjamin away. At such times, as parents, they


    both needed some warmth from each other.


    After a long time, Benjamin withdrew his hand and said softly, "Go upstairs! I have a meetingter and I


    wille back another day. You will pick up Everest in the afternoon, and I''ll pick her back hometer


    in the evening!"


    Madelyn made a ''hm'' voice.


    Then she almost ran away, and even she herself didn''t know what she was escaping from!


    Was it Benjamin''s tenderness, or the painful past...


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    *


    Madelyn was obviously absent-minded!


    When peeling fruit, She almost cut her finger.


    Cam leaned on the hospital bed and smiled at her: "Put it down! If you continue like this, you will


    definitely cut your hands!"


    Madelyn lowered her hand and called softly: "Mom!"


    Cam called her over, holding her hand gently said: "I knew nothing about Everest until this year! Ben


    brought her to Vadiff and this little one shocked everyone. Your grandma cried for a long time, and Ben


    knelt on his knees all that night!"


    Madelyn put her head close to Cam.


    Cam stroked her hair and said in a low voice: "Your uncle said that he wishes you could have more


    choices instead of being with Benjamin for the sake of the child, so when the Gavin family asked him to


    introduce other men, he didn''t refuse! I mean...You should follow your heart and do not make a


    decision in a rush, you two have been constantly breaking up and getting back together."


    Madelyn nodded: "Mom, I will be careful!"


    She didn''t think about anything now, she just wanted to raise little Everest well and brought her up.


    Cam smiled: "Bring the little thing to me tomorrow. I haven''t seen her for a long time. I really miss


    her... This girl looks exactly like you when you were a child, but her temperament is exactly like Ben.


    She would definitely be someone when she grows up!"


    When Madelyn thought of little Everest, her heart was filled up with warmth and love!


    She stayed with Cam for a long time and she didn''t take the car to pick up little Everest until 3:30 in


    the afternoon.


    At the kindergarten entrance.


    When little Everest saw Madelyn, She raised her white and tender face high and was extremely proud.


    Madelyn took little Everest''s schoolbag, squatted down and wiped her sweat, and smiled softly: "Later,


    mom is going to work in the restaurant, and you go and eat French food with mom, will you?"


    Little Everest blinked her ck and grape-like eyes.


    She said in an affectedly sweet voice: "Mom, do you still have money left? Dad has a lot of money!"


    Madelyn kissed her: "Mom is the owner of that restaurant and asionally ys the piano there!"


    Little Everest was immediately cheered up.


    She wanted her mother to hug her and put her arms around her mother''s neck.


    Mom smells so nice!


    ...


    Madelyn took Little Everest to the French restaurant.


    Asked for a seat near the piano, she let little Everest sit and ordered her a pretty good French meal.


    Little Everest usually got her food all over everything while enjoying her meals.


    At this time, Madelyn cut the steak for her. Everest ate it with a small fork in a very dignified and


    restrained manner.


    Madelyn looked at her for a while and had no choice but to admit that Benjamin''s genes had a powerful


    influence on Everest!


    Having settled little Everest down, Madelyn sat down to y the piano. Probably because she was in a


    good mood, and the few pieces she yed today were very vorful and touching!


    Little Everest held his head.


    She attentively looked at her mother''s slender waist and straight back and found her mom''s brown hair


    so romantic when her mom put it down. What''s more, her mom''s the long dress was also pretty too!


    None of the mothers of her ssmates was as good-looking as her mother!


    Little Everest picked up a piece of steak and chew it contentedly!


    Madelyn yed a dozen or so songs and came back to have something to eat. Just like all the women


    who loved to keep a good body shape, Madelyn ate very little for dinner.


    Madelyn remembered to check the time, it was eight o''clock.


    Children of Everest''s age usually had to go to bed at 9 o''clock.


    Madelyn was about to call Benjamin when a slender figure appeared at the dining table, apanied


    by a familiar voice: "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn was a little bit shocked.


    Oscar?


    Oscar was the blind date introduced to her by Keh that day, whom sheter declined. She never


    expected to meet him again.


    Madelyn was not stupid, she wouldn''t think it was an ident.


    She was thinking about how to maintain a distance from him without visible effort.


    Everest greeted Oscar passionately, "Brother!"


    Oscar chuckled at this inappropriate address given by the little guy. He sat down naturally and asked


    Madelyn, "Is this your rtives'' kid? She''s cute!"


    Madelyn gave him a faint smile and answered, "It''s my child!"


    Oscar was stunned.


    He knew that Madelyn had been married and had a child, but he didn''t expect Madelyn to take the kid


    with her.


    Madelyn was satisfied with it. If she took her child with her, maybe Oscar would never run into her


    again!


    Little Everest had an innocent expression on her face.


    She took out a candy from her pink backpack and ced it in Oscar''s hand and said softly, "Brother,


    you are really good-looking! I was supposed to give this candy to Edward, but now I''m giving it to you!"


    Oscar was quite moved.


    He touched little Everest''s brown curly hair.


    Everest was very obedient and quiet while Oscar touched her curly hair and said in a sweet voice,


    "Mom loves this candy too! Dad always tears off its wrapper and feeds it to Mom, and he treats Mom so


    well. He also washed Mom''s clothes this morning!"


    Oscar was speechless.


    Madelyn also didn''t know what to say.


    Little Everest spoke softly, "Mom, Dad hase to pick us back home!"


    Madelyn was stunned and looked out.


    Sure enough, Benjamin''s ck Maybach car had stopped outside, and he was standing beside the car,


    staring at their side with a meaningful gaze, not looking good.


    Madelyn guessed that was due to Oscar.


    Oscar also noticed Benjamin.


    Through a ss stood a particrly noble man with an excellent appearance. He was the kind of man


    that a woman would never forget for a lifetime if she once had a rtionship with him.


    Madelyn smiled apologetically at him and said, "Excuse me! We have to go."


    Oscar realized he had no hope, but he didn''t know why he had obsession and went out with her.


    So the two men met face-to-face.


    Madelyn was quite helpless.


    She forced a smile and introduced them to each other, "This is Oscar, the son of my uncle''s colleague."


    At the moment of the fiercepetition between the men, Benjamin paid no attention to his demeanor.


    He was angry deep down and snorted, "Isn''t he just a blind date?... Then you can also introduce me!"


    Madelyn was so mad at Benjamin!


    How childish he was!


    But she smiled slightly and said to Oscar, "This is my ex-husband."


    Benjamin didn''t look angry but even nodded, "Yes! We are a divorced couple."


    He put little Everest on the car, turned back and said very gently, "I''ll take her back first. You''lle


    and pick her up tomorrow morning!... By the way, I washed the clothes you got dirtyst night and put


    them in the guest bedroom."

 Chapter 234 On Valentines Day, He Brought Her A Gift

    Chapter 234 On Valentine''s Day, He Brought Her A Gift


    Benjamin spoke ambiguously on purpose.


    Madelyn found it ridiculous and infuriating.


    He took a fond look at her, nodded reservedly towards Oscar, and got in the car.


    Little Everest sat by the window and said word by word silently: You are dead!


    Her dad was so vindictive!


    Standing in the night, Madelyn watched the expensive car drive away slowly. She shook her head


    lightly: getting along with Benjamin was more tiring than taking care of children!


    Oscar took the hint.


    He looked down at the candy in his palm, realizing that he had no chance, not only because of


    Benjamin but also because of that child.


    Such a small child was too smart!


    She should address him brother, and in this way, she made his and Madelyn''s seniority different!


    Madelyn came back to her senses and smiled apologetically at him.


    Oscar also smiled. He looked at the direction the car left, and after deliberating for a long time, he


    asked softly, "You...you still love him, don''t you?"


    ...


    Benjamin took little Everest back.


    Back at the vi, the little guy went to take a bath, and Benjamin just sat quietly on the sofa, immersed


    in thought.


    Although he knew that Madelyn and Oscar were impossible to have a rtionship, he was still so


    jealous!


    He couldn''t help it and took his phone to send Madelyn a message [Ms. Green, I didn''t know you like


    younger men now. Young and inexperienced men...can they satisfy you?]


    On the other side, Madelyn stared at the message for a long time and finally made it sure that it was


    from Benjamin.


    In the past three years, he must have endured his desire to the point of abnormality!


    Madelyn didn''t want to spoil him, so she directly replied [Thank you for your concern, I will try!]


    After reading it, Benjamin threw the phone away.


    They were mad at each other


    ...


    After taking a shower, little Everest came out in her one-piece pajamas.


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    She rolled into Benjamin''s arms.


    Benjamin restrained his emotions and wiped the little guy''s hair. The little guy was about to fall asleep


    out offort, but she still didn''t forget tofort her father: "Mom won''t like that Uncle Gavin!"


    Benjamin was overjoyed but pretended not to care. "Why?"


    Everest yawned: "Mom is so good-looking, it''s normal that someone would like her! Just like me... there


    are so many children who like me in the kindergarten, I can''t even count them!"


    Benjamin was moved by her words.


    He kissed the little guy, and said in a hoarse voice, "Is Dad too domineering?"


    The little girl with brown curly hair hummed softly as an answer.


    Benjamin reflected seriously.


    Was it because he controlled Madelyn too much that Madelyn resented him? In fact, since there was


    Everest between them, it was impossible for Madelyn to fall in love with others under the current


    situation...


    He was too concerned about gains and losses!


    Benjamin patted the baby in his arms, took the mobile phone and prepared to apologize to Madelyn.


    The text was typed when and the curly-haired little guy said gloomily again: "Actually, Dad, you are


    right to be nervous! Mom answered the phone in the car today and she was so excited..."


    Benjamin''s fingers trembled.


    Little Everest''s dark eyes narrowed: "Mom called him David!"


    Benjamin was at a loss of words.


    He threw the phone aside and sat in a sulk.


    Little Everest rolled overfortably in his arms...


    *


    Benjamin had been jealous all night.


    Early in the morning, Madelyn came to pick up Everest, but Benjamin''s attitude was always indifferent,


    and he didn''t ask her about Oscar.


    If he didn''t mention it, Madelyn naturally wouldn''t talk about it either.


    After taking the small suitcase that the servant had sorted out, Madelyn looked at Benjamin on the sofa


    and said softly, "I''ll take her back tomorrow night!"


    Benjamin stared at the financial magazine indifferently.


    Madelyn felt that he might be suffering from endocrine disorders and didn''t mind his weird actions, but


    Benjamin stopped her when she was about to leave.


    Benjamin asked little Everest to get into the car first and pointed to the opposite sofa: "I have


    something to ask you!"


    Madelyn handed the luggage to the servant.


    The servant tactfully brought little Everest into the car first and when the living room became quiet,


    Benjamin pretended to say casually: "I heard that you are still in touch with David!"


    Madelyn was not surprised that he knew.


    Little Everest was just a little spy.


    In fact, David called her to ask about Florence.


    Besides, Nics had a cooperation with David, since she was the boss, it is normal to keep an eye on


    it. What''s more, David seemed to have a girlfriend in Esrand.


    But Madelyn wouldn''t exin that much to him.


    Madelyn admitted and asked directly: "You don''t want to interfere, do you?"


    Benjamin stared at her for a long time, then suddenly smiled: "Of course not, we are ex-husband and


    wife!"


    He probably didn''t want to make any more trouble with her, so he quickly changed the topic and said,


    "By the way, has Eloise contacted you?"


    "Eloise?"


    Benjamin lit a cigarette and then pinched it out: "She had run away for two years!"


    Madelyn was very surprised.


    Eloise had always been fragile and innocent in her impression. How could she have run away for two


    years?


    Benjamin knew from her expression that she didn''t know.


    He smiled lightly and said, "Come home with me when you have time, our parents... my parents really


    miss you! Let''s take Everest back and visit them together."


    Holding the cup, Madelyn felt it was not a good idea.


    Benjamin also knew her thoughts. He looked at her and said, "You''re Everest''s mother! It''s normal for


    you to visit her grandparents!"


    Madelyn smiled lightly and said, "Okay, I will go to see my uncle and aunt when I have time."


    Benjamin noticed her alienation.


    He did not force her.


    Later on, Madelyn still didn''t go to the rk family with him because she felt it was inappropriate.


    She divorced Benjamin, and they had been back-and-forth several times. Before the rtionship


    became stable, she felt no need to involve the elders and make them worry.


    She took good care of little Everest while Benjamin was busy with his career.


    Gradually, the ambiguity between them gradually diminished. On the one hand, Benjamin dared not


    force her. On the other hand, he was really busy. In the past, he was time-poor, but now Madelyn could


    take care of little Everest and he could indeed better devote himself to his career.


    Before Valentine''s Day, he acquired five-star hotel chains in Gartown.


    And named it Windsor Hotel.


    The celebration banquet made headlines in various media outlets.


    Benjamin was wearing a British three piece suit, holding champagne, and drinking with several senior


    executives. Standing next to him was a top tier female celebrity with a bright appearance, who was the


    spokesperson for the Windsor Hotel.


    The female celebrity was naturally attentive, but her behavior was very measured.


    Little Everest looked attentively at it for a while and raised her head, "Mom, aren''t you jealous?"


    Madelyn thought carefully.


    Actually not!


    If she was... she should have been with him long ago.


    Madelyn kissed the little guy and said gently, "Your father should have his own private life."


    "Oh." was all little Everest said.


    She nestled down on the sofa, feeling a bit disheartened. She not only wanted her mother, but also


    wanted to live with her parents like other children did.


    Madelyn noticed that the little guy was unhappy.


    She touched the little guy''s little head and said, "Everest, there are some things you won''t understand


    until you grow up."


    Little Everest responded.


    She knew that her mother loved her very much, and she also knew that if she yed coquettish and


    cried again, her mother might be with her father. But Little Everest also liked her.


    She couldn''t do that...


    The little guy hadn''t been in high spirits all night.


    At ten o''clock in the evening, Benjamin returned to Gredax early and went directly to Madelyn''s ce.


    Madelyn''s apartment upied 180 square meters and was beautifully decorated.


    When Benjamin arrived, Little Everest had already fallen asleep.


    Benjamin lightly lowered his suitcase, took off his coat, and naturally asked Madelyn, "She already fell


    asleep?"


    Madelyn made a "hm" voice.


    Benjamin walked into the bedroom and ced the teddy bear he had brought back from Gartown on


    the little guy''s pillow. She could see it when she woke up next day. When he was doing this,


    indescribable tenderness appeared on his expression.


    Madelyn was quietly watching at the door.


    Benjamin sat by the bed for a long time, and when he got up, he saw her gaze and chuckled softly,


    "Are you jealous?"


    Without waiting for Madelyn to speak, he took out a box from his pants pocket and said, "Here you


    are!"


    Madelyn opened it and found that it was not a very precious item inside, but a pair of chic pearl


    earrings.


    Such a small giftmonly appeared in asions like when husband was back from a business trip,


    he specially brought it to his wife.


    Madelyn hesitated a bit.


    Benjamin lowered his voice and said, "They look pretty on you!"


    Madelyn picked it up and walked to the kitchen, "Let me make you a cup of coffee!"


    Benjamin guessed that she had something to talk about.


    Madelyn made him a cup of coffee and as he was drinking, she spoke softly, "She seems a bit unhappy


    because of our separation."


    Benjamin remained silent.


    He knew much more about little Everest''s condition than Madelyn.


    After a long silence, Benjamin finally opened his mouth and said with a hint of gentleness: "It''s okay, I''ll


    coax herter!"


    Madelyn agreed.


    Benjamin put down his Coffee cup and said softly, "Madelyn, we haven''t talked so calmly for a long


    time!"

 Chapter 235 It Turned Out That Benjamin Could Also Be Vulnerable!

    Chapter 235 It Turned Out That Benjamin Could Also Be Vulnerable!


    Chapter 235 It Turned Out That Benjamin Could Also Be Vulnerable!


    Madelyn was stunned.


    Then she smiled faintly and said, "Of course, it''s different when we have a child! We can''t argue so


    much like before."


    When she spoke, her expression was gentle and peaceful.


    Benjamin was fond of the way she spoke, and now Madelyn was alone with him in the middle of the


    night, with their child sleeping next door.


    He couldn''t help but be tempted.


    He looked at her with a pure male''s gaze at a female.


    Madelyn noticed his gaze.


    She calmly brought the topic back and said, "You and Everest should talk these days! It''s getting


    Her intention was to ask him toe back tomorrow morning to pick up the child.


    Benjamin raised his wrist and checked the time.


    He looked at Madelyn and realized that she didn''t really mean to keep him overnight though he really


    wanted to. So he whispered, "I''m quite tired. There''s an important meeting tomorrow morning! I''ll sleep


    in the guest room and I won''t disturb you!"


    Madelyn agreed.


    She took him to the guest room, but she didn''t go in herself.


    Benjamin threw his coat at the end of the bed and when he turned around, he noticed that she hadn''t


    Madelyn avoided answering him, "I''ll get you some toiletries!"


    Benjamin didn''t speak, just looked at her.


    When Madelyn left, he sat at the end of the bed, gently loosened his tie...


    He was upset and felt in his western-style coat, but instead of feeling the cigarettes, he found a hard


    small box. It was the gift he bought for her from Gartown.


    Madelyn didn''t take it.


    Benjamin held the small box with a meaningful gaze.


    When Madelyn came in again, Benjamin was sitting at the end of the bed, smoking.


    With one hand supporting himself on the bed and another holding a cigarette, his delicate angr face


    was looking up, which made him look very manly... Seeing Madelyne in, his ck eyes squinted.


    "Do you have a Razor?"


    Madelyn whispered, "I don''t have this!"


    He slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke and reached out, "Give them to me!"


    Without any doubt, Madelyn handed him the toiletries, but Benjamin did not take them. Instead, he


    grabbed her slender wrist and gently pulled it, causing Madelyn to fall directly onto the bed.


    Then, his fiery body pressed on her...


    "Benjamin!"


    Madelyn was quite angry, but she didn''t dare to speak too loudly for fear of disturbing little Everest next


    door.


    Benjamin grabbed her restless hand, sped it with one hand and pressed it against the end of the


    bed, while with the other hand, he squeezed out his cigarette. Then he had some small things in his


    hand.


    Madelyny weakly on the bed, her long brown hair spreading out, and her small face turned pale.


    Benjamin let go of her hand, but he used even more force to trap her with his body. With such close


    contact, Madelyn did not dare to move.


    He had some things in his hand and clumsily put them on for her.


    It was the pair of pearl earrings.


    Benjamin''s movements were unfamiliar, and he identally poked the flesh on Madelyn''s ear. She bit


    her lip and snorted softly, "It hurts! Benjamin, what are you doing?"


    The meaning of her words was unclear, which made his gaze meaningful.


    If it weren''t for his concern for her mood, he would have alreadyplied with his own desires and


    taken possession of her.


    Benjamin rxed his movements and gently put on earrings for her.


    After putting them on, he spoke hoarsely, "Remember that time at the hotel, when we finished making


    love, you left first. But you dropped an earring at the end of the bed, the style as these... Madelyn, you


    look really good wearing them!"


    Madelyn was actually quite speechless.


    Memories of past events could also be embellished by him, and he spoke it as something extremely


    erotic!


    Benjamin really missed her.


    Although he was impatient, he still didn''t want to miss tonight''s opportunity.


    He was too busy and usually didn''t dare to go too far. Though she was beneath him, he dared not do it


    without her permission! He lowered his body and buried his face in her neck, asking, "Madelyn, haven''t


    I won you any favor after all this time?"


    Madelyn pushed him, but couldn''t push him away.


    She bit her lip lightly, then turned her face away and spoke gloomily, "Benjamin, I mean it! Indeed,


    you''re the most eligible man, we were in a romantic rtionship before, and now we have a child


    named Everest , but... now I just want to take good care of Everest, and I really don''t want to consider


    anything else."


    As she spoke, her eyes were moistened and the light blue at the end of her eyebrows stood out more


    prominently than usual.


    It was very attractive!


    Benjamin couldn''t help but caress that ce, and his slender fingers touched it bit by bit. He touched it


    until Madelyn could hardly bear it, and her voice was as fragile as if she were burnt. "Benjamin..."


    He suddenly chuckled softly and said, "Your voice is so beautiful!"


    Madelyn took three seconds to understand his meaning and couldn''t help but kick him, saying, "Let me


    go!"


    Surprisingly, Benjamin released her.


    He rolled over to the side, his chin tightened and his Adam''s apple rolled seductively. And his voice


    became hoarse. "Go to sleep!"


    Madelyn immediately ran away.


    Just as her fingertips touched the doorknob, Benjamin whispered, "These years, I really miss you!"


    ...


    In the early morning, when Everest woke up, there was a limited edition Little Bear by the bed.


    She should have been happy.


    But today she couldn''t.


    She hugged the little bear and ran to the guest room to find Benjamin. In the early morning, Benjamin


    had not yet woken up, and a furry little guy had burrowed into his quilt.


    He opened his eyes and touched her small brown curls.


    Everest pressed her face to his heart and remained silent. Benjamin pinched her face and said, "Do


    you miss me, sweetie?"


    Little Everest still didn''t speak.


    Benjamin did not force her and held her small head in his arms.


    Everest was different from other children. She had a certain tendency towards autism, so he never


    forced her when she didn''t want to talk. As a father, he was very distressed for this and was willing to


    give everything to make his little Everest happy.


    But sometimes, happiness couldn''t be bought with money!


    Madelyn specially made Onsen tamago and vegetable octopus balls to coax the little guy. She found


    Everest, who buried herself under the quilt with only a hint of brown curly hair exposed.


    Benjamin gave Madelyn a soothing gaze.


    He held Everest from 7 am to almost 9 am in the morning.


    During this time, Paisley called, but Benjamin asked Madelyn to answer it for him and asked Paisley to


    postpone the meeting to the afternoon.


    Hanging up the phone, Madelyn stared at Benjamin.


    He was also looking at her meaningfully.


    Fortunately, at 9 o''clock, little Everest was finally willing to get out of the bed. She held the little bear in


    her hand, moring to go to kindergarten.


    Madelyn and Benjamin apanied her to kindergarten together.


    When the little guy was sent to the kindergarten, Madelyn couldn''t bear to part with her and kissed her


    again and again.


    With a heavy heart, they got back into the car.


    Benjamin lit a cigarette and whispered, "Her symptoms just now are fairly mild."


    Madelyn leaned back in the seat.


    She was feeling weak all over, and she had seen little Everest like this for the first time because


    Everest had always been lively and lovely before, and she didn''t seem like a sick child at all.


    Madelyn silently shed her tears.


    Benjamin put out his cigarette and handed her a tissue. "Don''t cry!"


    Madelyn wiped away her tears, but more tears fell...


    She felt very guilty. She didn''t know how many times had Everest been isted in her own world. The


    only one who could apany her was Benjamin, but Madelyn knew nothing about it while healing


    herself in Oriapool.


    Madelyn gently closed her eyes.


    Benjamin didn''t disturb her, he knew she needed to digest...


    He waited for a long long time...


    When she calmed down, he gently grasped her hand and said, "Madelyn, it''s not your fault!"


    ...


    In the afternoon, Madelyn received a call from Benjamin.


    His tone was very peaceful: "Madelyn,e to the vi!"


    Madelyn was pouring coffee at that time. When she heard the words, her hand trembled. The hot


    coffee identally poured onto the back of her hand, and her hand immediately turned red. She


    couldn''t even care about it and immediately took a taxi to Benjamin''s vi.


    The atmosphere in the vi was very oppressive.


    The servants walked cautiously because after little Evie came back from kindergarten, she refused to


    speak again. She hid in the cab for a long time and the gentleman came back from thepany to


    apany her for a long time.


    Madelyn came over and the servant whispered, "Sir and little Evie are upstairs!"


    Madelyn quickly walked upstairs.


    When she pushed open the door of the children''s room, she saw a little Everest hiding in the pink


    wardrobe, holding the little bear silently.


    Benjamin was dressed in formal attire, slightly arched and also sitting in the small cab. He had a


    fairy tale book in his hand and was reading it softly to little Everest.


    Even when Madelyn came in, he only gave her a nce before continuing to read the fairy tale that he


    had read thousands of times.


    This scene had a great impact on Madelyn!


    At this moment, she realized how much Benjamin had paid in the past few years!


    No matter how much emotional entanglement or grudges she had with him in the past, she was the


    mother of little Everest and she couldn''t leave at her like this without doing anything!


    If she could... she must be too selfish!


    Madelyn walked slowly over and took off her shoes. She whispered, "The wardrobe is too small for you,


    let me apany her!"


    Benjamin''s dark eyes focused on her. After a moment, he handed her the fairy tale book in his hand


    and crawled out of the cab.


    Madelyn sat next to little Everest.


    She couldn''t help but kiss the little guy and then started reading her fairy tales.

    But as she spoke, her voice trembled!


    Benjamin walked outside, stood in the hallway and lit a cigarette. He took a few strong puffs... In fact,


    he could have avoided calling Madelyn today, but probably because he had experienced her


    gentleness, he didn''t want to be alone anymore.


    It was not until Madelyn appeared just now that he realized how much he needed her.


    Not only because of love, but also because this person was actually the sustenance of all his emotions


    over the years.


    Everest was a rib pulled out of Madelyn''s body.


    As much as he loved Everest, so much as he loved Madelyn...

 Chapter 236 Madelyn, I Want To Please You!

    Chapter 236 Madelyn, I Want To Please You!


    Chapter 236 Madelyn, I Want To Please You!


    At nine o''clock in the evening, little Everest was finally willing toe out.


    She had two bowls of rice.


    Madelyn was particrly willing to spoil her today. She personally took a bath for her, dried her hair,


    and read her bedtime stories. Knowing that Madelyn was staying overnight, little Everest fell asleep


    happily.


    Madelyn dimmed the bedsidemp and walked out lightly.


    She wanted to talk to Benjamin and took some time to find him in the study. He sat quietly in the dark


    space without smoking.


    "Benjamin! "Madelyn called his name.


    He seemed startled, then stood up and walked towards her, closing the door with one hand and saying,


    ''Is she asleep?''


    Madelyn nodded as she was about to speak to him when she was hugged by him.


    Benjamin pushed her against the door panel.


    He used a bit of strength, and Madelyn''s back hurt a bit from being hit. However, she noticed that he


    was not in the right mood, so she held back and said softly, "Let''s talk!"


    He let out an absent-minded hum.


    Subsequently, he slowly lowered his head and buried his face in her neck... After a long time, Madelyn


    felt a little wet and ufortable.


    But she didn''t push him away!


    At this moment, she realized that he was not invincible.


    Not only did she but he pay an incalcble price for his trip to Monatiz.


    Perhaps it was because of empathy, or perhaps they were raising a child together, at this moment, she


    was somewhat moved, and her hand gently ced behind his neck and gave him some gentle stroke.


    Benjamin''s body stiffened a little bit.


    He raised his eyes and looked at her in the darkness, his ck eyes were imprable.


    In the dim light, they couldn''t see each other clearly, but this kind of atmosphere was the best. Finally,


    he couldn''t help but lower his head and kiss her lips.


    That soft touch was very green and unripe.


    After touching her lips, he breathed a little more hotly.


    Madelyn''s body was tightly pressed against the door behind her, and she stared at him helplessly. She


    was actually here to talk about Little Everest.


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    Benjamin touched her lips again.


    The lips with the smell of tobo pressed hers, and his kiss was heavier little by little.


    He always had a strong desire!


    But at this moment, he couldn''t bear to do that. He kissed her carefully and cherished her, deeply and


    shallowly testing her, making herfortable...


    His heart was about to break free from his chest.


    The long lost, asexual green urge to kiss well once again befell him.


    He kissed her for a long time.


    Maybe half an hour, maybe two or three hours.


    He just pressed her on the door panel and used various methods to please her..


    At the end.


    He spoke hoarsely, "It''s gettingte, go take a shower and sleep, I''ll get you clothes!"


    Madelyn was still sticking to the door panel.


    She couldn''t resist this kind of warmth without coercion. Even now, her legs were still a bit weak. If it


    weren''t for the support of his hand on her waist, she would have fallen to the ground long ago...


    Benjamin gently stroked her waist and whispered, "If you want, let''s do it in the master bedroom!"


    Madelyn refused with finality.


    She whispered, "I''ll sleep with Everest, you get me the clothes!"


    Benjamin turned on the light in the study with one hand and gently stroked her arm with the other:


    "Shower at my ce! Your clothes and cloakroom are there. I''ll handle some things in the study!"


    Finally, Madelyn took her clothes and took a shower in the guest room.


    She slept with Everest all night.


    ...


    The next day, the atmosphere between them waspletely different.


    Benjamin treated her with a bit more gentleness and a bit more ambiguity.


    Madelyn vigorously ignored it.


    She got up early in the morning to cook breakfast for Little Everest and help her get up. Little Everest


    was in a particrly good mood and obediently stuck to Madelyn...


    Benjamin spoke softly, "Handle your things by yourself!"


    Madelyn was about to speak for Everest.


    But he gazed at her and smiled softly, "A loving mother always fails her children!"


    At this moment, Madelyn saw the shadow of Alexander on him and her heart was filled with


    remonstrance. It must be because Benjamin was getting older that now he could naturally give some


    mansining!


    But she was not afraid of him. All her tenderness was all about to give to little Everest.


    Little Everest was originally a bit afraid of her father and had already started to have her meals on her


    own, but now her mother was actually cutting eggs for her and even feeding her mashed potatoes!


    Little Everest immediately put down her small fork.


    Not only that, but she also climbed onto Madelyn''s legs and wanted to sit in her arms and eat!


    Benjamin gave her a faint nce.


    He taught Everest with his own set of principles. He would spoil her in the cases he should, but she


    should learn to stand on her own.


    Little Everest felt the tense and reluctantly climbed down slowly. She sat down on her own and started


    digging for food on her own. Even though she split her food everywhere, Benjamin didn''t even frown.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but say, "She''s still young!"


    Benjamin took a sip of ck coffee and whispered, "Sometimes she acts better than you!"


    Madelyn stopped talking.


    Benjamin looked at her expression and was afraid that she might get angry. After all, they had just


    shared a very intimate kissst night and the rtionship had just taken a big step forward. He didn''t


    want to have another argument with her due to the child''s education issue at this time.


    He said gently, "A child needs to be apanied and you can''t do everything for her!"


    He also proposed a negative textbook: "Think about Eloise and you will know what I''m talking about!"


    Madelyn was stunned.


    She looked at Benjamin, who probably thought of his disappointing sister and was having a gloomy


    face.


    Seeing Madelyn''s expression, he lowered his voice and said, "She''s okay, she''s just hiding!"


    He once approached Daniel.


    After some conversation, he confirmed that Eloise''s departure from home had nothing to do with


    Daniel!


    Madelyn really liked Eloise. She said softly, "I''ll ask someone to look aroundter!"


    Benjamin gave a faint smile.


    ...


    Their rtionship had be much more harmonious, so when they go to the clinic to see a


    psychologist, theirmunication was also smooth.


    The psychologist conducted a check-up on little Everest.


    After that, little Everest was taken to the adjacent amusement room, apanied by a dedicated


    person.


    After a long evaluation by the doctor, he whispered, "Her recent abnormality is likely rted to Mrs.


    rk''s sudden return... Children are very sensitive, especially if their parents divorce, it will have a


    certain psychological impact on her!"


    Madelyn''s eyes were moistened.


    Benjamin hugged her shoulder, he could understand that no woman can bepletely strong in such a


    matter.


    The doctor looked at them and gave sincere advice: "If you both don''t have a partner, you might as well


    try to get back together. If her parents live together, Everest''s mental health will be greatly helped, and


    there are even chances that she would beplete recovered!"


    Benjamin nodded and said, "We will consider it!"


    The doctor talked to Madelyn again and finally handed her the medical record.


    Madelyn sat there, flipping page by page until her emotions almost copsed.


    When Everest was two years old, she came almost every week.


    At that time, she would even shut herself up every two days...


    Madelyn closed the medical record.


    She couldn''te out from her emotions for a long time and she knew why Benjamin didn''t tell her


    about it. She might not be able to take care of an Everest like that...


    She cried, as she had been doing for the past few days.


    Benjamin hugged her and whispered, "She is much better now. The doctor has said that there is still a


    chance of recovery."


    Madelyn leaned against his shoulder.


    She whispered, "Benjamin, I have decided!"


    Benjamin heart lost a beat. He restrained his excitement and asked, "What have you decided?"


    Madelyn straightened up, her eyes moist and watery, and looked at him like that: "Let''s temporarily y


    the role of a loving couple!"


    Benjamin was at a loss of words.


    He couldn''t believe it and asked back, "Is that what you wanna say? Madelyn, consideringst night''s


    kiss, do you think we need to y? We... don''t you want to have me again?"


    If it weren''t for treating the child''s illness, his words would be far from this conservative!


    Madelyn had her own considerations.


    They had a slight identst night, and she admitted that kissing like that was very heartwarming.


    But the attraction between them wasrgely due to Everest, it was because they both needfort,


    and in such emotions, it was easy to develop affections.


    She had made repeated mistakes and didn''t want to be so hasty.


    Madelyn whispered, "Benjamin, I can only give these for now! If you''re not willing to..."


    "I am willing to!"


    He spoke softly again, "I do!''


    How could he not be willing? She finally let go and was willing to have further contact with him, rather


    than living separately...


    After the treatment.


    Benjamin had an important meeting. When he got into the car, he looked in the rearview mirror and


    said to Madelyn, "You cane to mypany with Everest together."


    Madelyn hesitated for a moment.


    Little Everest looked at her eagerly and said, "The muffins dad''spany are particrly delicious!"


    Madelyn immediately agreed.


    Benjamin lightly stepped on the gas pedal and chuckled, "Everest, your power is stronger than Dad''s


    ass!"


    Little Everest leanedfortably against Madelyn, slightly raising her small brown curly hair. "Dad, why


    youpare my power to your ass? Why notpare my power with yours?"


    Benjamin fell into silence.


    Madelyn was speechless too.


    For a long time, Benjamin whispered, "So don''t worry too much! She''s very smart and cute!"


    Benjamin was driving while talking to Madelyn about Everest''s situation, just like an ordinary husband.


    Madelyn hadn''t quite adapted to this atmostphere yet.


    Benjamin stopped the car, unbuttoned his seat belt, and whispered, "Come home with me on


    Saturday!"


    Madelyn did not refuse again.


    She had to y the role of husband and wife with Benjamin, so in various asions, she must act as


    his wife... She didn''t know if she made this decision hastily, but she didn''t regret it.


    Benjamin took them to thepany.


    The entire Everest Group was about to explode.


    Mr. rk had returned, it seemed that they were preparing to get back together!


    Benjamin arrived at the top floor with the two. Paisley was already waiting at the elevator entrance, and


    the smile almost froze on her face: The CEO seemed to be on the verge of sess in winning his


    wife''s heart back! But...


    Paisley weed them as she walked and she said with a smile: "Jasmine has arrived at thepany


    and is waiting for you to sign the contract!"


    Benjamin frowned and said, "Isn''t the spokesperson signed by the vice president?"


    Paisley coughed lightly and said, "Ms. Stetson is quite persistent!"


    Madelyn was not stupid!


    She guessed that Ms. Stetson was the female star of thest media report, the one standing with


    Benjamin to celebrate. Obviously she was pinning after Benjamin.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn and knew what she was thinking about!


    He told Paisley, "Ask Ms. Stetson toe here and bring in some more small dessert."


    Paisley left with a smile on her face.


    Benjamin held little Everest in his arms and made her sit on the sofa, then smiled faintly at Madelyn


    and said, "I don''t know her! But if you''re not happy for this, I''ll show you... I''ll also prove my innocence!"

    Chapter 237 She Was Actually Mr. rk''s Wife!


    Madelyn did not trust him.


    She snorted softly, "I''m not unhappy! That''s your private life."


    Benjamin chuckled lightly and said, "She has nothing to do with my private life, but you and Everest


    do!"


    He looked at little Everest and asked, "Is Dad right?"


    Little Everest climbed onto her father''sp and looked at Madelyn with the same gaze as looking at a


    ''heartless man''.


    Madelyn had nothing to say.


    During the break of their conversation, Paisley came in.


    She carried a tray with little Everest''s favorite muffins and some small dessert.


    Behind her was a tall female star, Jasmine.


    Jasmine was a highly confident woman.


    She had won big awards for her wonderful acting skills and could be considered a self righteous figure


    in the industry.


    That day in Gartown, she missed out on Benjamin, so she came to sign a formal contract with him


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    today. She didn''t want to miss the opportunity again.


    Paisley made a gesture and said, "Ms. Stetson, please take a seat!"


    Jasmine smiled slightly and when she was about to sit down, her gaze froze.


    A person had already sat on the sofa.


    it was a very good-looking woman, young and with a good temperament. Unlike the skinny female


    celebrities in the entertainment industry, she was just right. She was slim but buxom at the same time.


    Jasmine''s heart tightened.


    ''Is this Mr. rk''s lover?''


    When she hesitated, the little guy on Benjamin''s leg climbed down, took Paisley''s hand and sat down


    at the small round table to eat dessert.


    Little Everest ate a piece and then spoke softly, "Ms. Green, please apany me to eat!"


    Ms. Green?


    Jasmine was relieved: ''She''s just a In-home tutoring!''


    She ignored Madelyn and sat on the sofa, looking at Benjamin with a gentle and charming expression.


    "Mr. rk, I want to talk to you about the details of the contract!"


    Benjamin nced at her.


    He walked to the coffee machine, ced coffee beans and began to brew coffee.


    Madelyn liked to drink coffee, so he has someone get a Zistin antique coffee machine and put it here.


    In the future, Madelyn could always drink pure Mandheling when she came.


    He was wearing a ssic suit and now he took off his coat.


    He was in a dark blue shirt and ck pants.


    The well-cut shirt perfectly showcased his upper body lines, which were very powerful. Coupled with


    the charm of a mature man, Jasmine felt that after such a long time searching, she finally found a man


    that suited her.


    At this moment, she took it for granted that he was brewing coffee for her.


    Although Benjamin was an elite in the business world, she was also a top tier actress. She thoght she


    deserved him.


    She couldn''t help but want to please her daughter.


    Jasmine also sat at the small round table, wanting to eat muffins and find somemon topics with


    little Everest.


    She had just reached out when thest muffin was pinched by little Everest and put into Madelyn''s


    mouth. She also asked softly, "Mom, is it delicious?"


    ''Mom?''


    ''Isn''t she... isn''t she a tutor?''


    Jasmine had also been through tough cases, but at this moment, she was extremely embarrassed.


    Looking at Madelyn again, she dared not be as dismissive as before, but she always had some


    expectations in her heart.


    Mr. rk had been divorced, and they may only meet because of their child.


    Right at this time, Benjamin came over.


    A cup of coffee was ced in front of Madelyn, and his tone was quite gentle: "Drinking too much is not


    good for your health, only half of it!"


    Jasminepletely broke down!


    That cup of coffee was not made for her!


    She was not reconciled and suddenly lost herposure: "Why?"


    She didn''t believe this man knew little about her thought. That night in Gartown, she knocked on the


    door of his room. He opened the door and met her politely. He didn''t let her in but didn''t say anything


    serious, butter she heard that he left Gartown that night.


    Benjamin had always had a clear distinction between public and private affairs.


    He patted Madelyn''s shoulder and said, "Take Everest to the lounge to y for a while, I''ll talk about


    business!"


    Madelyn knew he didn''t want to embarrass women, so she picked up Little Everest.


    Everesty on her shoulder and made a face!


    Benjamin returned to his desk and pressed the inside line: "Nash,e over here!"


    Nash quickly responded.


    Benjamin didn''t pay any attention to Ms. Stetson anymore. He opened the document, flicked though a


    few pages, and said a few words to Paisley.


    During this time, Nash came over.


    As soon as he arrived, Benjamin pointed at Jasmine and said softly, "Ms. Stetson still wants to talk


    about the contract. You can talk to her! By the way... did you previously agree on an endorsement fee


    of 300 thousand dors per year? Recently, due to financial constraints, it has been pressed down to


    250 thousand dors. If Miss Zhou is unwilling, she can cooperate with someone else!"


    Nash was clearly stunned.


    ''What''s going on here?''


    Benjamin had already made his meaning clear: "Ms. Stetson, you willmunicate with Nash in the


    future!"


    He gave her face once, but since she didn''t know what to do, there was no need to give her face again.


    He was looking for a spokesperson, not a mistress!


    Jasmine was extremely embarrassed.


    She only realized now that the refusal that night was not a trick yed by Benjamin. He didn''t even


    take her seriously nor thought about it that way.


    She ttered herself.


    Ms. Stetson couldn''t afford to offend Benjamin, despite she was extremely embarrassed at this moment


    and was cut by 50 thousand dors, she politely said, "Mr. rk, I hope we will have a pleasant


    cooperation!"


    Benjamin just nodded coldly.


    He wouldn''t show any respect at her!


    Ms. Stetson couldn''t help but feel lost!


    ...


    The others left, Benjamin walked into the lounge.


    Little Everest fell asleep.


    Madelyny beside her, holding her head and stretching out her slender fingers to depict little Everest''s


    small face with a focused and gentle expression.


    Benjamin couldn''t help but take off his shoes andy behind Madelyn.


    He put one hand around her slender waist and whispered, "I really didn''t flirt with her!"


    Madelyn actually knew.


    If he had an intention, he would have plenty of opportunities in Gartown.


    However, she didn''t want to inquire about his private affairs, as there was nothing else between them


    now except for Everest.


    She remained silent.


    He also understood her meaning, and he was always a bit unhappy that she didn''t care!


    He deliberately flirt with her, ced his big palm on her slender waist and gently slid one it. He even


    leaned over to gently bite behind her delicate ear, saying, "Madelyn, you really know how to make me


    angry!"


    Madelyn reminded him, "Benjamin, don''t wake Everest up!"


    Benjamin rarely had such a perfect opportunity. He lifted the quilt and covered them both and his palm


    couldn''t help but stroke her back and forth...


    Little Everest secretly opened her eyes a little.


    Then, the little guy rolled over and snored...


    Madelyn was startled.


    She grabbed Benjamin''s hand and looked at him silently.


    Benjamin entwined his fingers with hers. He leaned close to her forehead and whispered, "I really want


    to! Madelyn, I don''t believe you haven''t thought about me in these years. Even if you don''t, you will still


    miss my..."


    Madelyn kicked him.


    Her voice was hoarse, "Aren''t you going to work?"


    He reluctantly rubbed against the back of her neck before getting out of bed.


    After he left, Madelyn held little Everest in her arms and kissed her, closing her eyes--


    Benjamin always wanted to have sex with her, as long as there was a chance, he will take advantage


    of it! Madelyn was not a very conservative person, but besides not letting go of past events, she was


    afraid of getting pregnant.


    The pain of giving birth to Everest still existed deeply in her body''s memory.

 Chapter 238 William Got Blood Cancer!

    Chapter 238William Got Blood Cancer!


    Chapter 238 William Got Blood Cancer!


    It was six o''clock in the evening.


    Benjamin returned home with his wife and daughter.


    Little Everest was tired from ying, so Benjamin hugged her directly, Madelyn followed him gently.


    The employees of the Everest Group in the lobby on the first floor were quite curious.


    The CEO had such a gentle expression!


    Arriving the parking lot, Benjamin ced the little guy in the children''s seat and then stood up to block


    the roof, allowing Madelyn to get on the car.


    When Madelyn got into the car, he touched her shoulder.


    "What''s the matter? "Madelyn was confused.


    Benjamin stared at her, his voice incredibly gentle: "Tomorrow I have to work overtime, you and Everest


    Madelyn knew his thoughts.


    She pondered and said, "In the morning, I''ll take Everest to visit my mother. We''lle in the


    afternoon!"


    Benjamin remained silent.


    She thought he was unhappy, but he hugged her slender waist and leaned over at the bustling door of


    Everest Group to imprint a kiss on her lips.


    Madelyn licked her lower lip and said, "Don''t kiss me casually!"


    Benjamin''s gaze was soulful.


    For a long time, he smiled and said, "Get in the car, I''ll smoke!"


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    He never smoked in front of Little Everest, but now his desire came up.


    Madelyn did not object and got on the car first.


    Benjamin lowered his head and lit a cigarette, but after only smoking halfway, he pinched it out and


    opened the car door to get into the car.


    The ck Maybach slowly drove away...


    In the parking lot, there was a beautiful looking woman sitting in a white BMW. It was exactly Eleanor.


    She stared gloomily at Benjamin''s rear end.


    Madelyn was back!


    That child was still living well and her family of three looked really happy!


    Eleanor''s beautiful face was twisted and deformed, and the knuckles of her fingers holding the steering


    wheel turned white.


    She hated it so much!


    In the past three years, she couldn''t even meet Benjamin in person.


    And he had always been thinking about Madelyn!


    "Where can''t Ipare to her? "Eleanor spoke coldly.


    Next to her sat a Little fresh meat, which she had paid for. At this time, he kindly posted it to kiss her:


    "Who canpare with you?"


    Eleanor pushed him away impatiently.


    But Little fresh meat also had some business capabilities.


    He was not ashamed, but rather proud. After flirting for a long time, he finally stirred up Joan''s desire.


    The two of them eagerly arrived at a five-star hotel and got a suite, made love and sweated buckets for


    two hours.


    After satisfying their desire.


    Eleanor pulled out a pile of money and threw it on the bed.


    She got up, dressed, and drove back to the vi that William had purchased in Gredax.


    At night, Constance hadn''t slept yet.


    Seeing Eleanore back, she was about to give her a hot night snack. But seeing the kiss mark on


    Eleanor''s neck, she immediately became angry and said, "How long will you still be fooling around? If


    you''re serious about finding someone to get married, wouldn''t it be better than this?"


    When Eleanor got divorced, she received 500 thousand dors.


    For three years, she almost ran out of it.


    Constance was very unhappy and chattered for a long time.


    Eleanor sat down on the sofa indifferently, took out a cigarette, lit it and slowly blew out a cigarette ring:


    "Mom, you''re always nagging! The money''s spent, but dad still has it, right? Although he can''t perform


    now, he made a lot of money in the early years!"


    William appeared on the stairs.


    He trembled with anger.


    The most unsessful thing in his life was adopting Eleanor, and in recent years, this child had been


    causing a lot of trouble.


    ying around with men and living extravagantly.


    Even though William had plenty of wealth, she could easily waste it.


    William said in a cold voice, "Those are not yours! You still have a sister!"


    "Sister?"


    Eleanor seemed to hear some joke and said, "Dad, are you getting mixed up in your old age? Does


    Madelyn recognize you as her father? She has the the Ryan family and the rk family, she doesn''t


    even care about your money, does she?"


    What she said opened William''s old wounds.


    He was sorry to Madeline back then, andter he was sorry to their flesh and blood. Madelyn didn''t


    want to see him.


    He had been to Oriapool before.


    But he only dared to nce at Madelyn from a distance, afraid that she would be disgusted.


    William felt so gloomy and nervous that he even spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot. The blood


    slowly dripped from the corner of his mouth, which scared Constance. She screamed and ran over,


    "William... William... What''s wrong with you?"


    William slowly knelt down.


    As his consciousness blurred, he gently uttered a word: "Madeline!"


    Constance''s face turned pale...


    Late at night.


    William''s physical condition had been reported.


    Advanced stage of blood cancer.


    Several women from the Bet family, as well as some rtives, were still there. After all, William still


    had over millions of dors in wealth, and he had not yet died.


    The doctor spoke softly and said, "Mr. Bet condition cannot be dyed any longer. He needs to


    transnt bone marrow immediately! Your family members should all be ready to match, it''s the best


    case if we can find the suitable one among your rtives, otherwise you will have to wait for the call


    from the bone marrow bank. With Mr. Bet''s health condition, he may not be able to wait until that


    time!"


    Madame couldn''t bear to watch her son suffer, so she fiercely demanded all her rtives and friends to


    do it.


    Eleanor, who has no blood rtionship with William, fiddled with her fingers and said, "If their bone


    marrow don''t match, he still Madelyn. She''s her father''s biological daughter, and I believe her bone


    marrow has the greatest chance of beingpatible!"


    Madame didn''t want her son to die.


    She discussed with William and prepared to call Madelyn.


    William disagreed.


    Hey in bed and spoke quietly, "Mom, stop talking! I wouldn''t want that child to transnt her bone


    marrow."


    He had no face!


    Madame was so anxious that she stomped her feet and said, "William, you''re a fool! You''re her


    biological father, how could she exist without you? You have a kindness of raising her up, shouldn''t she


    repay you?"


    William was in a daze.


    The favor of giving her life and raising her up? Did he do it?


    He was sorry for Madeline, and even more so for Madelyn... He wouldn''t demand Madelyn to match,


    but he wanted to see her, and he also wanted to see that child!


    He became a grandfather...


    *


    Benjamin took Madelyn back to the vi.


    When the car stopped, he leaned over and whispered, "Move the things over another day so you don''t


    have to run back and forth."


    Madelyn nodded and prepared to bring someundry changes over.


    Benjamin''s slender fingers gently caressed the steering wheel and said, "When will I get our


    certificate?"


    Get a certificate?


    Madelyn looked at little Everest and whispered, "Our rtionship, including getting a certificate?"


    Benjamin smiled and said, "If you don''t want to get a certificate with me, who are you nning to get it


    with?"


    Madelyn was not fooled.


    She gently opened the car door and wanted to pick little Everest off the car.


    Benjamin spoke softly, "I''ll do it."


    Madelyn didn''t object, little Everest was not light, and it was indeed quite difficult for her to hold her.


    Benjamin had just hugged her when little Everest woke up. She opened her hazy eyes but didn''t have


    any strength on her body, so she justy soft on Benjamin.


    Madelyn pulled her little finger.


    Her heart was filled with warmth, but this warmth vanished immediately when she saw the piano in the


    hall.


    She looked at Benjamin.


    Benjamin said seriously, "Isn''t Everest going to learn the piano? This piano was wasted in the


    apartment. It''s a good idea to move it over so that you can teach her at night!"


    Madelyn was both shy and angry: ''Is this the point?''


    Benjamin put down little Everest and patted her little head, letting her y on her own.


    After the little guy left, he didn''t hesitate to ask back shamelessly, "Do you remember that we made


    love on this before?... Everest doesn''t know about it!"


    Madelyn red at him.


    She felt that she couldn''t please him anymore.


    Madelyn had ordered a piano right now, and as for this one, it should be ced at it former ce!


    After finishing all this, she felt a little morefortable in her heart.


    But now little Everest climbed onto the piano stool, sat straight, and began to y.


    Madelyn was at a loss of words.


    Benjamin smiled lightly and leaned over to her ear, saying, "A few days ago, I took her to the


    apartment. She yed it already! What''s wrong?... You''re shy?"


    Madelyn knew he meant it.


    She didn''t continue the topic and sat next to little Everest and taught her gently.


    Little Everest had very high aptitude, and she was learning from her mom.


    Madelyn rubbed her small head and temporarily forgave the child''s father.


    At night, when she finished coaxing little Everest, she couldn''t help but think of something.


    Eloise!


    Madelyn walked out lightly and called in the living room, "Uncle, I have something to ask you for help!"

 Chapter 239 He and She, Just a Night of Passion

    Chapter 239 He and She, Just a Night of Passion


    Chapter 239 He and She, Just a Night of Passion


    Late at night, Keh was in Vadiff, slightly tipsy and leaning against the sofa after socializing.


    A servant brought him a sobering coffee.


    He waved his hand to indicate that it wasn''t needed, and the servant tactfully retreated.


    Keh''s voice was gentle as he asked, "What''s wrong? Did that jerk bully you?"


    Madelyn shook her head, saying, "No! I have something I want to ask Uncle for help with... Well, it''s


    about Eloise! Benjamin told me she ran away two years ago and hasn''te home. I want to ask


    Uncle to keep an eye out for her."


    Before she finished speaking, Keh sat up lightly.


    He unbuttoned two buttons on his shirt, speaking softly into the night, "She hasn''t been home for two


    years?"


    Madelyn responded with an affirmative sound.


    Keh fell silent, and from the other end of the phone came his heavy breathing. After a while,


    Keh spoke softly, "I happen to be on a business trip to Gredax tomorrow. Come and see little


    Everest!"


    Madelyn asked in surprise, "What a coincidence?"


    But Keh had already hung up the phone, otherwise... he would lose control!


    The night grew thick.


    Some memories he had tried hard to forget surfaced in his mind. He closed his eyes, as if he could still


    hear a tender voice.


    "Uncle Ryan, please don''t be mad at my brother."


    "Uncle Ryan... Will little Everest be okay?"


    "Uncle Ryan, you''re drunk! Please stop drinking... Mmm... Uncle Ryan..."


    ...


    Keh''s face turned red from the alcohol, reminiscent of that night of loss of control.


    That night, he pressed down a girl 16 years younger than him, possessing her as if he had gone mad.


    She cried in his arms, calling him "Uncle Ryan!"


    But it didn''t awaken the beast within him.


    That night, he hurt her.


    The night grew even darker.


    Keh quietly lit a cigarette.


    He knew that with his position, it would be best not to get involved with that person anymore. He


    couldn''t give her a future, and besides, he was 16 years older than her!


    But she did have a rtionship with him after all, and she was so heartbroken when she left.


    He always wanted to know that she was safe.


    Keh considered himself tough as iron, but those six months of being together, and the sound of


    "Uncle Ryan" softened his heart...


    When she left, he knew he couldn''t bear it!


    But what else could he do?


    ...


    The next day, Keh wasing over.


    Madelyn didn''t go to Benjamin''spany. In the morning, she took little Everest to the hospital and


    returned to the vi in the afternoon.


    Keh arrived around two o''clock in the afternoon.


    He didn''t mention Eloise, but Madelyn talked about some situations.


    He yed with Everest, seemingly listening absentmindedly... Around five o''clock, he bid farewell to


    Madelyn, saying, "I have to rush back to Vadiff, so I won''t stay for dinner!"


    Madelyn was surprised, "Don''t you even have time for a meal?"


    Keh held Everest and smiled faintly, "There''s still business to attend to! Next time!"


    Madelyn felt that he was not in a good mood.


    But he didn''t want to say, and she, as a junior, couldn''t ask too much.


    Keh kissed Little Everest again and left briskly.


    He got in the car, sat quietly, and the driver asked softly, "Mr. Ryan, where do we go now?"


    Keh gently spread out his palm.


    There was a faint pink scar on it!


    He whispered, "Go to 19 Oretin Road!"


    The driver had been with him for a long time and naturally knew some things that Mr. Ryan had never


    mentioned. But for about half a year a few years ago, Mr. Ryan used toe to Gredax one or two


    nights every week.


    That apartment was Mr. Ryan''s secret ce for a woman.


    An hourter, the car stopped in front of the apartment building on Oretin Road, and Keh went up


    alone.


    The apartment is approximately 120 square meters and the decoration is very luxurious.


    It had been a long time since hest came, and there was dust everywhere, indicating that thedy of


    the house hadn''t been here for a long time either.


    Keh brushed off a spot on the sofa.


    He smoked quietly.


    In fact, he had thought about marrying her.


    Firstly, she was too young, and secondly, their rtionship was more of a one-night stand! Moreover,


    given hisplicated situation and her innocent nature, she was not suitable to be Mrs. Ryan.


    After a while, Keh made a phone call to his secretary, his voice slightly hoarse.


    "Kaleb, help me find out where Eloise is!"


    Kaleb on the other end of the line was taken aback.


    He couldn''t have expected his boss to mention this name.


    Keh said in a calm tone, "Go and find out!"


    Kaleb snapped back to his senses and immediately said, "Yes, I understand!"


    Keh hung up the phone, grabbed his coat, and left.


    As he descended to the ground floor, it seemed like all the mncholy had disappeared, and he was


    still the impable Mr. Ryan...


    Evening.


    Benjamin returned home and as soon as he got out of the car, the servant informed him that Mr. Ryan


    had visited.


    He calmly acknowledged it.


    After searching around, he found Madelyn in the kitchen.


    Madelyn was preparing dinner, and the ingredients were clearly prepared for Keh''s visit. Benjamin


    couldn''t help but feel jealous. Since they reunited, she rarely cooked, but today she had prepared so


    many dishes for Keh.


    She was focused on cooking, her profile exuding a gentle beauty.


    Benjamin had never imagined that he would have a date with her in the kitchen.


    He handed his coat to the servant and approached Madelyn, "Uncle came over, what did he say?"


    Madelyn was pasting the catfish.


    She nced at him and deliberately said, "He''s my uncle, not yours!"


    Benjamin looked into her eyes and couldn''t help but be moved by the smile in them. He decided not to


    argue with her anymore and said, "I''ll help you out!"


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    Madelyn dared not to ask him to do things and said, "Just apany Everest!"


    Benjamin lowered his voice and said, "I''d rather be with you!"


    The servants in the kitchen tactfully left.


    Benjamin boldly embraced her slender waist and brushed his lips against the nape of her neck, saying


    vaguely, "Mrs. rk, the meat here is really tender!"


    "I am not!" she protested.


    "Why not? We''ve slept together so many times, got married, and even have a child together!"


    He was just being unreasonable!


    After being sexually harassed by him several times, Madelyn sincerely suggested, "Maybe you should


    see a therapist! I''m afraid you''re bing disturbed!"


    Benjamin took the hint.


    He kissed her on the side of her face and said, "I''m going to take a shower!"


    But as soon as he left the kitchen, a servant quietly informed him, "Mrs. rk has arrived! She wants to


    see Madam."


    Benjamin frowned.


    He rolled up his shirt sleeves slightly and instructed the servant, "I''ll go and check! Don''t tell Madam."


    The servant nodded quickly.


    Benjamin lit a cigarette and walked slowly towards the mansion''s entrance.


    He had heard about William''s illness from his father to some extent, and since his father hadn''t said


    anything, he naturally wouldn''t tell Madelyn...


    As he reached the door, William hurriedly approached him, saying, "Ben!"


    Benjamin exhaled a smoke ring leisurely and smiled faintly, "I would still call you Mr. Bet! But don''t


    William looked crestfallen.


    He lifted his eyes slightly and said calmly, "I didn''te to ask for Madelyn''s bone, I just wanted to see


    her!"


    He held a gift in his hand.


    Some were for Madelyn, and some were for little Everest.


    Benjamin nced over them lightly and smiled even more faintly, "If you don''t want her bone, then why


    did youe to see her at this time?"


    William''s face stiffened, and he struggled to say, "I didn''t think it through!"


    Benjamin no longer had much respect for him.


    On one hand, it was because of Madelyn, and on the other hand, the rk family confirmed that it was


    Eleanor who pushed Eloise into the water all those years ago. The Bet couple actually knew about


    it, but they had been using this favor to manipte the rk family for years!


    Benjamin directly expelled William, saying, "Don''te here again! I don''t want Madelyn to be hurt


    anymore!"


    William wanted to plead further, but Benjamin remained unmoved and turned away.


    As the iron gate closed, separating William outside, he held not only gifts but also a journal filled with


    beautiful memories between him and Madeline. Benjamin intended to keep it from Madelyn.


    However, as soon as he returned to the kitchen, Madelyn spoke softly, "Did Williame?"


    Benjamin didn''t expect her to know.


    Madelyn smiled faintly and said, "My mother told me. She''s with him in a hospital! Benjamin, you don''t


    have to worry about me being a match for him because when I was 20 years old, I had already


    considered donating bone marrow to those in need. My information is already in the bone marrow


    registry, and we''re notpatible at all!"


    So Madelyn didn''t have these worries.


    After Madelyn finished speaking, Benjamin suddenly hugged her, surprising her. "Benjamin?" she said.


    In a soft voice, barely audible, Benjamin whispered in her ear, "Madelyn, from now on, tell me about


    these things, okay? Tell me everything, just like an ordinary married couple. Let''s share everything


    together!"


    Madelyn pushed him away and continued cooking.


    She said calmly, "Is that so? You didn''t tell me about that female celebrity either!"


    Before she could finish speaking, he lifted her onto the kitchen counter, gripping the back of her head


    firmly, and kissed her forcefully...

    Chapter 240 Mom and Dad are Dating!


    Madelyn endured him.


    This kiss came unexpectedly, yet too rough. She hesitated, not wanting to add fuel to the fire.


    Benjamin kissed her lips, then moved to her neck and whispered in her ear, his voice husky. "Madelyn,


    deep down you do care, don''t you? You still have feelings for me, but you haven''t let go... is that


    right?"


    Madelyn supported herself with her hands on his shoulders.


    This posture was truly embarrassing.


    She calmed herself and spoke to him gently, "Let me down! If you keep doing this, the household staff


    will talk. How can I face them in the future? Besides, we''re not really a couple!"


    Everest was too young to understand, but the household staff couldn''t be oblivious.


    Benjamin teasingly bit her and said, "They''re all older people, they can understand! Besides,


    reconciling after a divorce has its own process. We''re in that process now, and it''s normal for dating to


    involve more than just talking. Showing affection is also perfectly normal!"


    Madelyn focused her gaze on him.


    Benjamin''s voice became hoarse and inaudible, "Why are you staring at me like that? If you truly feel


    sorry for me, then help me..."


    Madelyn nced downward.


    She lightly brushed it off and said, "You may not be awyer anymore, but your way with words hasn''t


    diminished."


    Benjamin chuckled softly.


    He carried her down and let her go cook, while he stayed behind for a while before leaving.


    Benjamin departed.


    Madelyn''s mood was somewhat chaotic.


    Actually, she had wanted to ask him just now why he left the legal profession.


    But the words stuck in her throat. She believed that Benjamin understood her intention, but neither of


    them broached the topic...


    Madelyn also admitted that she had feelings for him.


    She was a mature woman, and not unfeeling. If she didn''t have any feelings, then there would be a


    problem!


    However, it was happening too fast!


    They had dated off and on in the past, and if she easily got involved with him again, it could lead to


    unpleasant consequences in the future, affecting Everest...


    Madelyn''s emotions were slightly turbulent.


    Dinner was tasteless, but when she faced little Everest, her heart was filled with tenderness.


    At night, she leaned against the bedside, soothing Everest to sleep.


    The little one curled up in her arms, eyes closed.


    Madelyn gently read the fairy tale "Cindere" to him.


    Everest squinted his eyes open a little bit and said, "Daddy saidst time that he is Mommy''s prince!"


    Madelyn coughed softly.


    Benjamin was shameless!


    Everest let out a satisfied sigh and said, "Princes and princesses always get married in the end!"


    Madelyn looked at her soft little face and lovingly kissed her.


    Everest snored softly.


    Madelyn thought she was about to fall asleep, so she put down the fairy tale book and prepared to


    sleep as well. However, Everest suddenly asked, "How about Mommy and Daddy?"


    Madelyn hugged him and gently said, "Mommy and Daddy are dating!"


    Everest held onto her tightly.


    Just then, Benjamin came in carrying milk and happened to hear what was said.


    He gazed at Madelyn with a smile that seemed like a smirk.


    C¨°ntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    Madelyn''s cheeks slightly heated up as she lifted Everest up and said, "Drink your milk before


    sleeping!"


    Everest was very sleepy and refused to drink.


    Benjamin sat on the edge of the bed and gave the little girl a kiss on her cheek. In a hoarse voice, he


    said, "Let her go to sleep! You drink the milk!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to drink it.


    Benjamin''s gaze was clear, and he spoke in a low voice, "How about I feed you something else?"


    Madelyn considered for a moment.


    She still took the milk and drank it slowly.


    In the dim light, she wore a silk nightgown, and her chestnut hair cascaded down her shoulders.


    A small patch of delicate skin was exposed on her corbone.


    Benjamin stared at it for a long time.


    After finishing the milk, Madelyn handed him the cup without daring to look at him. Shey down


    directly and said, "Turn off the light!"


    Benjamin leaned over and turned off the light.


    Then he gave her a goodnight kiss and whispered in her ear, his voice low and hoarse, "Madelyn,


    when will you also apany me?"


    Madelyn replied softly, "Don''t think too much about it!"


    His lips moved to hers, gentle like a spring breeze, as he flirted with her, "I think about it every night!"


    Madelyn hadn''t reacted yet when he left.


    When Benjamin opened the door, Madelyn heard that it was raining outside.


    The rain was heavy, which was rare for this season!


    ...


    At night, she was startled awake by thunder.


    The thunder roared.


    Lightning split the night sky, piercing through every window in the city, illuminating the room.


    Little Everest also woke up, curled up in her arms, whimpering softly.


    Madelyn hugged her tofort her, saying, "Don''t be afraid!"


    Little Everest was scared.


    She curled up into a small ball in Madelyn''s arms, quietly asking for her father.


    Madelyn wanted to take her over...


    But now, as soon as she opened the door, there was thunder and lightning outside.


    Just then, a strong wind suddenly blew open a window.


    The wind and rain immediately rushed in, making the entire bedroom damp in an instant. There was


    even water umting on the floor near the window, enough to keep fish!


    Madelyn couldn''t care anymore.


    She immediately wrapped Everest in a small nket, preparing to take her to Benjamin''s ce.


    Just as she was about to leave, the bedroom door opened.


    Benjamin was wearing a robe and walking towards them in the darkness. He took little Everest from


    Madelyn''s hands and whispered, "The power is out! The backup generator is broken! Come sleep at


    my ce!"


    Madelyn couldn''t put on an act, she was scared too.


    Benjamin held little Everest with one hand and embraced Madelyn with the other as they walked to the


    master bedroom.


    Perhaps because he was there, little Everest wasn''t as afraid anymore. The little one clung tightly to


    her father''s neck and refused to let go even when they got on the bed.


    Benjaminy on his side and patientlyforted her.


    For about half an hour, in the gentle sound of his light tapping, little Everest gradually settled down and


    curled obediently in his arms.


    Her small feet were ced on his abs.


    Benjamin continued to gently pat her back...


    He lifted his gaze lightly and looked at Madelyn across from him.


    In such terrible weather, they slept on the same bed with a little child between them, a little life they had


    conceived together.


    Benjamin''s heart softened.


    He held Everest and reached out with one hand, lightly touching Madelyn''s fingertips.


    "Are you asleep?"


    Of course, Madelyn was not asleep. She felt him touch her hand and even lightly hold it. His fingertips,


    although only slightly warmer, felt as if they had touched her heart.


    She closed her eyes in confusion. "I''m going to sleep!"


    Outside, thunder roared.


    Benjamin said very softly and gently, "If Everest weren''t here, I would definitely let you lean against


    me!"


    Later, Madelyn didn''t know how she fell asleep.


    The only thing she could be sure of was that he never let go of her hand.


    ...


    Early morning.


    She woke up to meet Benjamin''s deep gaze, not knowing how long he had been looking at her.


    Being just awake, Madelyn felt soft all over.


    She whispered, "I''ll make breakfast for Everest!"


    As soon as she finished speaking, her delicate wrist was caught by him. She didn''t know how he had


    moved to her side, and when she came to her senses, she was already beneath him...


    Benjamin didn''t say anything.


    He held her hand, preventing her from moving, and slowly lowered his head to kiss her.


    They kissed deeply and lightly for a long time...


    He whispered in her ear, "There was a power outage at night, no air conditioning, and yet you''re lying


    on my bed like this, Madelyn... It''s not all my fault!"


    Madelyn stared at him: He was really being unreasonable!


    He truly desired her, but little Everest was nearby.


    He didn''t dare to get carried away. His fingers slipped into her silk nightgown, teasing her to make her


    "Benjamin, stop!"


    He gently coaxed her, "Feeling shy? Be good... Don''t make a sound!"


    Madelyn blushed and her heart raced.


    Within the curve of her neck was a drop of sweat from Benjamin...


    His alluring Adam''s apple rolled as he suppressed himself!


    But after suppressing it for years, the woman he desired was beneath him in such a vulnerable state. If


    he continued to hold back, he wouldn''t be a man anymore.


    Benjamin leaned against Madelyn''s ear, unable to bear it, and softly coaxed, "Is it okay?"


    Madelyn also felt it.


    She was a mature woman with needs. If it were under normal circumstances, it would be fine, but now


    that she was provoked by him like this... However, she still restrained herself and whispered, "No."


    She was afraid, afraid of getting pregnant...


    Benjamin guessed her thoughts and reached over to the bedside table, where there was a new little


    box.


    He opened it with one hand, feeling somewhat unfamiliar...


    Madelyn grabbed his hand, her voice trembling, "Benjamin!"


    He gazed deeply into her eyes, exuding the unique charm of a mature man!


    Madelyn could hardly hold on any longer.


    Benjamin couldn''t resist anymore. He was about topletely indulge himself and embark on a long-


    lost passion... Little Everest turned over and sat up straight, saying, "Daddy, I need to go to the


    bathroom!"


    Benjamin''s body stiffened.


    He rolled over andy beside her, all the passionate thoughts dissipating!


    Madelyn was the same.


    Blushing, she adjusted her nightgown and wanted to get out of bed.


    Benjamin reached out and hooked her waist, his voice hoarse as he said, "She usually goes to the


    bathroom by herself, but she slept lessst night and is a bit clingy right now!"


    He exined so much, but actually he wanted to keep her.


    Although there''s nothing more to do afterwards, Madelyn''s current demeanor is very gentle and


    obedient, something he hasn''t seen in a long time.


    He wants her lying on his bed.


    Madelyn didn''t leave because her current state is not suitable for going out either.


    In case the servants see...


    Benjamin guessed her thoughts and whispered, "Just sleep a little longer!"


    After saying that, he got up and took little Everest to the bathroom in his arms.


    Little Everest let go of his hand, fixed her clothes by herself, and then ran outside and snuggled into


    Benjamin''s arms, acting spoiled for a while!


    Benjamin kissed her and said, "Brush your teeth and wash your face by yourself!"


    Little Everest is capable of taking care of herself. She ran back to the children''s room, which had been


    repaired by workers at this point.


    Benjamin sat on the edge of the bed.


    Madelyn sat up and leaned against the headboard, gazing at him.


    He did the same.


    After things that just happened, they both had some inexplicable meaning in their eyes just now,


    somewhat ambiguous. But now they were parents of children after all, so they can no longer act as


    they did before, without regard to time.


    Benjamin had something to say.


    He looked at Madelyn and whispered, "Next week is thepany''s anniversary celebration. Will you


    apany me?"


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Of course, she knew the significance behind it. She said softly, "I''ll consider it!"


    Benjamin said gently, "For Everest''s psychological well-being! Madelyn, please consider it!"


    Madelyn stared at him.


    She said sincerely, "I''m afraid when Everest gets better, your mental health will have problem!"


    Benjamin chuckled softly, "Are you worried about me?"

    Chapter 241 The Two Families, Irrevocable Estrangement


    Madelyn blushed and pushed him away. "No!"


    She couldn''t lie down anymore and got out of bed to change clothes in the wardrobe.


    Benjamin followed her inside.


    They had been a couple before, and he didn''t know how many times he had seen her like this.


    Madelyn didn''t avoid it either. When she put on a sweater, he hugged her from behind and spoke softly,


    "Madelyn, you still me me in your heart!"


    Madelyn didn''t deny it.


    Some things simply couldn''t be forgotten by just saying so.


    She whispered, "Benjamin, we both need time."


    He made a soft sound of agreement, much better atmunicating than before. At this moment, when


    they were alone together, he didn''t do anything further to her. After all, now she was not only the


    woman he wanted but also little Everest''s mother.


    Those improper things could only be done at the right time.


    Coincidentally, Benjamin''s phone rang.


    It was a call from Alexander. With one hand around her slim waist and the other holding the phone, he


    said, "Dad?"


    Alexander''s tone wasn''t too good. "Ben, bring Madelyn back here!"


    Benjamin wanted to ask why.


    Alexander asked him to give the phone to Madelyn and said a few words to her. Madelyn nodded,


    "Okay, we''lle over in a while!"


    The call ended.


    Benjamin asked softly, "What did he say?"


    Madelyn whispered, "The Bet family is causing trouble there. They want me to do a tissue match


    for William!"


    Benjamin became angry.


    Not to mention that Madelyn is not a suitable match at all, even if she were, does that mean she has to


    donate bone marrow to him?


    Seeing his expression, Madelyn smiled faintly, "What''s wrong? You seem to have a problem with him


    now?"


    Benjamin took off his bathrobe.


    He changed into a shirt and trousers in front of Madelyn, exining, "You''ll know when we go back! In


    any case, it''s an unpleasant matter. My dad and W... William also don''t have much contact anymore!"


    Madelyn guessed that there was something else going on.


    ...


    The family of three returned to the rk family.


    As soon as they entered the door, they saw Madame Bet throwing a tantrum, with Constance and


    Eleanor present as well.


    Madame Bet cried and said, "If it weren''t for Eloise from your family saving William back then, he


    wouldn''t have ended up infertile. Now that his health is deteriorating, and he needs Madelyn for a


    tissue match, you all are dragging your feet. It''s heartless!"


    Benjamin handed Everest to Madelyn.


    With a cold face, he said, "Then why don''t you go begging at the Ryan family?"


    The Ryan family?


    Thinking of Keh, Madame Bet''s face stiffened.


    Benjamin helped Madelyn sit down and sneered, "None of you dares to go to the Ryan family; I


    suppose you know that you''re guilty towards Madelyn. Instead of reflecting on yourselves, you cause


    trouble in our rk family?"


    Madame Bet clung to that topic again, "William saved Eloise!"


    Mrs. rk had been enduring for a long time and couldn''t hold back anymore. "Yes, William did save


    Eloise! But do you know why Eloise fell into the water?"


    The people from the Bet family were taken aback.


    Eleanor clenched her hands. Did Eloise lose her memory again? Did she remember?


    Brianna looked disgusted. "It was Eleanor from your family who pushed Eloise into the water!


    Alexander and I had doubts back then, but two years ago, we hired a hypnotist for Eloise and


    reconstructed the scene. It proved that Eleanor pushed her!"


    Of course, Eleanor denied it.


    She looked at Benjamin and adamantly denied, "I didn''t do it!"


    No one paid attention to her.


    Madame Bet naturally wanted to support her own family. At this moment, she still wanted to use


    this favor to ckmail Madelyn into donating bone marrow to William... The situation suddenly became


    very ugly!


    Benjamin frowned, "Madelyn is not a suitable match at all!"


    What?


    Madame Bet didn''t believe it.


    She looked at Madelyn with suspicion and distress, "Are you resenting William like your mother, so you


    refuse to save him?"


    Madelyn chuckled in anger, "I joined the bone marrow registry when I was 20! If I were a match, I would


    have been notified long ago."


    Madame Bet sat down on the ground.


    She stared nkly at Madelyn, feeling a sense of unfamiliarity.


    This child couldn''t save William. What should she do about her William?


    Her gaze shifted to Everest.


    Madame Bet''s eyes lit up, "Everest also shares a blood rtionship with William. She..."


    Madelyn hasn''t spoken yet, and Benjamin has a bad temper.


    He went straight up and said, "Who do you think you are? How dare you have thoughts about Everest!"


    Madame Bet is an ignorant woman.


    She rolled on the ground and threw a tantrum.


    Alexander had a headache.


    He used to think William was a gentleman, but now it seems that he can''t even handle family matters,


    allowing his family to behave recklessly.


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    He stopped Madelyn and spoke for himself, "If it''s about matching in the bone marrow registry, if


    Madelyn is willing to donate, we won''t stop her. That''s herpassion for strangers! But she will never


    go as a daughter to match with William, let alone Everest... How old is she? How dare you say such


    things?"


    Madame Bet was unwilling to ept it.


    Constance spoke up, "Alexander, considering our many years of friendship!"


    Alexander spoke coldly, "That has all been your one-sided demands! I don''t believe you and William


    didn''t know about Eleanor pushing Eloise into the water, but you concealed it from us and made the


    rk family continuously repay you!"


    Because of this, Ben''s marriage almost fell apart.


    Over the years, how much have they sacrificed?


    And now, when the Bet family is in trouble, they have the audacity to act as if nothing happened


    and seek repayment!


    Alexander called the butler and dered on the spot.


    "In the future, if someone from the Bet familyes, there''s no need to open the door."

    Chapter 242 Do You Want to Leave Everest without A Proper Status?


    William came over and happened to hear this conversation.


    He stood at the entrance of the hall, feeling extremely embarrassed, his voice trembling slightly,


    "Alexander, are you really going to cut ties with me?"


    Alexander looked at him with a sickly appearance, and his heart was also filled with reluctance!


    But he was the head of the family.


    He was Madelyn''s father-inw and also little Everest''s grandfather. The rk family couldn''t have any


    more involvement with the Bet family, otherwise it would be the greatest injustice to Madelyn and


    her daughter!


    Alexander made up his mind and nodded, "That''s right! This is where we part ways!"


    William leaned against the door handle, his body swaying.


    To think that his rtionship with Alexander hade to this point... Was he really such a failure as a


    person? Why couldn''t he ever keep the people around him?


    When he asked, Alexander said in a deep voice, "As a man, one should make decisive decisions! If


    back then when Madeline misunderstood, you had chased after her in time, would we be in this


    situation today? You love this one and feel sorry for that one. One mistake after another! You want


    Madelyn to call you father, yet you greedily want her to be good friends with Eleanor too.


    William... you''re truly confused!"


    William''s face turned pale.


    His gaze fell on Madelyn and the little Everest by her side.


    He finally managed to see her onest time.


    With only one wish before he died, he asked in a trembling voice, "Madelyn, can you call me father?"


    Madelyn calmly looked at him.


    She was never one to beat around the bush and calmly refused, "Mrs. rk, take care!"


    William''s face turned even paler.


    He gave a bitter smile and took out a beautiful small object from his pocket. It was a ss trinket he


    had bought, intending to give it to little Everest. But his fingers trembled and it slipped onto the ground.


    The sharp fragment grazed Everest''s tender little leg.


    Bright red blood slowly seeped out!


    Benjamin quickly picked up Everest and pressed paper towels against her leg. Then he whispered to


    Madelyn, "There''s hemostatic enzyme in her small backpack!"


    Madelyn immediately found it and gave one to little Everest to eat!


    The fresh blood on the little one''s leg kept slowly seeping out. Everest was afraid of blood and buried


    herself in Benjamin''s arms, delicately crying out for her daddy to make it better...


    Benjaminforted the little one, his brows and eyes filled with tenderness.


    Unintentionally, there was also impatience directed towards William.


    William visibly startled.


    He didn''t expect it to turn out like this; he only wanted to give the child a toy.


    Alexander also felt heartbroken. He calmly said, "You don''t know that I don''t me you! William... just


    go, and don''t disturb Madelyn anymore. This child has suffered enough. Let her live well!"


    William left in a daze.


    As he reached the door, Madame Bet couldn''t help butin, "It''s just a small cut, yet


    everyone''s making such a fuss about it! Benjamin''s gaze could devour you!"


    Constance added, "That child is too fragile!"


    William remained silent.


    ...


    In the rk family hall.


    Once William left, Alexander picked up little Everest, showering her with kisses, incredibly worried, "Is


    Everest still in pain?"


    "It hurts!" Little Everest''s tender face scrunched up. "Grandpa, blow on it."


    Alexander, a figure like him, grabbed the little hand and lovingly blew on it.


    Finally, the little one was coaxed intoughter.


    Alexander held his granddaughter and said to Madelyn, "This child looks so much like you! Her


    temperament is just like Ben''s!"


    As he spoke, his face was filled with pride.


    Madelyn smiled gently.


    But deep down, she worried.


    Benjamin squeezed her hand and whispered, "Everest has panda blood and a clotting disorder. Being


    a direct rtive, I can''t donate blood to her, and this type of blood is rare even in blood banks. So


    Everest needs to be taken care of more preciously than ordinary children."


    He didn''t exin it explicitly, but Madelyn understood.


    Between them, someone had to sacrifice their career to apany little Everest.


    She made a soft sound of agreement.


    Brianna felt that this topic was too heavy. She nced at her son and told Madelyn to go to the small


    flower hall for coffee.


    In the hall, only the three generations remained!


    Alexander held little Everest in his arms and looked at his son, saying, "Ben, what do you think? Do


    you two want to leave my precious baby Everest without a proper status?"


    Benjamin chuckled, "Dad, isn''t there a process for that? I can''t just drag Madelyn to the marriage


    registry now, can I? Besides, we''re living together now, and it''s fine!"


    Little Everest muttered softly, "Mommy sleeps with me!"


    Benjamin was speechless.


    Alexander narrowed his eyes, "You''re still looking at Everest like that?"


    He lowered his head, speaking tenderly to his granddaughter, "Grandpa will handle them!"


    Little Everest giggled.


    Sitting on Alexander''sp, she kissed her grandfather''s face, one kiss here, one kiss there, her own


    tender little face brushing against his beard...


    Alexander''s heart softened.


    He held the brown curly-haired child and asked seriously, "When will you take over my position, Ben? I


    see that Madelyn also has a career to pursue. How about I take care of the kids for you?"


    How could Benjamin not understand his thoughts?


    He took a sip of coffee and leisurely said, "The Everest Group keeps me busy enough! Plus, the rk


    Group... Dad, I would be worked to death!"


    Alexander chuckled, "You won''t die from exhaustion! I see that you have plenty of energy right now!"


    His gaze was sharp, revealing that they were not a real couple!


    Just deceiving little Everest!


    Well!


    Useless waste!


    Over there, Brianna was having coffee with Madelyn.


    Brianna took good care of herself and remained beautiful and noble, but there was always a hint of


    sadness between her brows due to the matter with her children.


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Madelyn still couldn''t bring herself to call her aunt.


    She still called her mother, then served Brianna coffee, her gaze soft when she lowered her eyes.


    Brianna softly said, "These days, I''ve been wanting toe and see you, but I was afraid of disturbing


    your life! Madelyn... as a mother, of course, I hope you can forgive Ben. He did make mistakes in the


    past! But if there is still anger in your heart, Mom also hopes that you can teach him to tame his


    arrogant nature!"


    As she spoke, she gently held Madelyn''s hand.


    Such tenderness and love, how could Madelyn resist?


    She lifted her eyes and locked gaze with Brianna...


    Just then, Benjamin approached. He stood beside Madelyn, naturally cing his palm on her shoulder


    and softly said, "It''s time for dinner, let''s go eat!"


    Madelyn lightly hummed in agreement.


    Brianna was pleased to see them getting along, but she always had something on her mind.


    Eloise rarely came home, although she asionally called.


    In the afternoon, Everest stayed at the mansion.


    Madelyn had ns for afternoon tea with Vivian, and Benjamin was heading to the office, so he offered


    to drop her off.


    In the car, he turned his head and asked, "Are you tired?"


    Madelyn smiled faintly, "Are you talking about Everest?"


    Benjamin gently stroked the seat belt without saying a word... He was afraid that if Madelyn saw


    Eleanor today, she would be reminded of those unpleasant memories.


    He wanted to express his loyalty to her, but Madelyn seemed indifferent.


    Benjamin had never been so unsure and anxious.


    He wanted to hold her in the palm of his hand, but he didn''t know if she would ept it.


    Madelyn closed her eyes lightly, "She is adorable!"


    So, why would she be tired? Besides, even if it takes up all her time, she is willing to give it.


    Benjamin didn''t ask any further, gently stepped on the elerator, and took her to the coffee shop.


    He now highly valued Madelyn, and he respected her friends as well.


    They got out of the car together and went inside to greet Vivian. Benjamin also ruffled Vivian''s son''s


    head before leaving.


    Once he was out of sight, Vivian smiled and said, "He''s quite different now!"


    Madelyn ordered an iced coffee.


    She stirred it gently, took a sip, and chuckled, "What''s different about him?"


    Vivian whispered, "In any case, he''s not the same as before! The previous Benjamin was like a solitary


    moon in the sky, quite difficult to approach. Now, he''s descended to earth..."


    She made a gesture at Madelyn, "You''ve done well!"


    Madelyn smiled lightly.


    Vivian patted her hand and said, "Don''t take it lightly! Seriously, he''s good to you! Give him a test and if


    you think he''s good enough, ept him! Just look at his physique and face... Where else can you find


    someone like that?"


    Madelyn''s cheeks turned slightly red.


    She asked back, "Are you saying that I''m with him just for his face and physique?"


    Vivian nced at her son and lowered her voice, "Judging by the way he is, he must be great in that


    aspect too!"


    Madelyn almost sprayed her coffee.


    She looked at Elliot.


    Fortunately, the child didn''t have as much cunning as little Everest and didn''t notice!


    Madelyn was about to discuss it with Vivian when her gaze froze.


    She saw Eloise!

 Chapter 243 Eloise Had a Child!

    Chapter 243 Eloise Had a Child!


    Chapter 243 Eloise Had a Child!


    Next to the coffee shop was a milk tea shop.


    There was a long line at the entrance, and Eloise was standing in the middle, holding the hand of a


    two-year-old boy.


    After standing for a while, the little boy became unhappy.


    Eloise picked him up...


    Madelyn quietly watched.


    Her eyes gradually became moist, and her heart felt sour.


    Eloise had been pampered since childhood, and Madelyn suspected that she probably didn''t know


    about having to queue for milk tea before. But now, she was carrying a two-year-old child, standing in


    line under the scorching sun.


    She was no longer dressed in fancy clothes.


    Just a simple white shirt and faded jeans.


    She had be much thinner than before, and there were hardly any traces of being pampered on


    her face...


    Madelyn gently closed her eyes.


    Vivian followed her gaze and also saw it. She was surprised and blurted out, "Isn''t that Eloise? How...


    how does she have a child?"


    With Vivian''s personality, she would immediately capture the person and bring them home.


    Madelyn held her hand back, "No!"


    She had experienced it herself and understood Eloise''s thoughts.


    This child wasn''t born out of nothing. If Eloise didn''t want to go home, it must be because she loved this


    child and was afraid of disappointing her parents, afraid that they would force her to get rid of the


    child...


    Madelyn lowered her voice, "Vivian, don''t make a scene!"


    Just then, little Everest was causing a fuss, wanting his mother. The driver had brought him over.


    The little guy came bouncing over and saw Madelyn crying.


    He leaned against his mother''s arms, using his small hand to wipe away her tears andforting her,


    saying, "Mommy, don''t cry!"


    Vivian looked on with envy, "Daughters are so considerate!"


    Madelyn said softly, "Stay here for a while longer. I''ll go check on Eloise! And don''t tell Grayson about


    this yet. I''m afraid Eloise will be startled and run away again."


    Vivian understood the gravity of the situation and nodded, "Talk to her properly!"


    Madelyn took little Everest''s hand and went outside.


    Just then, Eloise bought her milk tea and was about to leave while holding the child when Madelyn


    called out softly from behind her, "Eloise!"


    Eloise''s body stiffened.


    She slowly turned her head and saw Madelyn, as well as little Everest by her side.


    Eloise''s lips trembled.


    It had been two years since shest saw Madelyn and little Everest... but seeing them, she couldn''t


    help but think of that person.


    After a long while, she called out softly, "Sister-inw!"


    Her voice was always filled with grievances, always filled with sadness. She wanted nothing more than


    to bury herself in Madelyn''s embrace and act spoiled, but she couldn''t anymore. She wasn''t the same


    Eloise as before.


    Madelyn''s emotions were overwhelmed.


    She approached slowly, reaching out to touch the child''s head and said to little Everest, "This is your


    auntie!"


    Little Everest was thrilled.


    He called out in a soft voice, "Auntie!"


    Eloise''s throat felt choked, and she gazed at little Everest... This moment was like going back three


    years ago, back to that crazy night...


    "You''ve grown so big!" She kissed little Everest and said to Madelyn, "This is my child, his name is


    Emerson!"


    Madelyn handed Everest to her and took Emerson in her arms.


    That fair and tender little face, the deep chestnut hair.


    There was no need to ask, whose child this was...


    Little Everest said, "His hair is the same color as mine, deep chestnut!"


    The atmosphere became delicate!


    Little Everest tilted his face up and said softly, "Mommy, you can hug him, I''m not jealous... I really am


    not jealous."


    Madelyn smiled lightly and said gently, "You go with Auntie."


    Eloise felt a bit uneasy.


    But Madelyn didn''t let her go, whispering, "Come to your ce for a while."


    ...


    After about 15 minutes of walking, they entered a small alleyway.


    The rented house was only 40 square meters.


    The house was a bit messy, with magazines scattered around and clothes for adults and children


    waiting to be washed. After looking for a while, there didn''t seem to be anything decent in sight!


    Madelyn felt heartbroken and wanted to cry. Eloise poured her a ss of water. They divided the milk


    tea between the two little ones. Eloise couldn''t afford much, so after waiting in line for a long time, she


    could only buy a cup for Emerson.


    Madelyn held Emerson in her arms and whispered, "Your brother said you haven''te home in two


    years! Is it because of the child?"


    Eloise nodded.


    She whispered, "After I separated from him... I found out I was pregnant! He doesn''t know, and he can''t


    marry me either!"


    Madelyn didn''t defend anyone.


    She just felt sorry for Eloise and the child.


    This child was two years old and didn''t even have a household registration yet!


    Madelyn calmed herself down and said, "Come home with me."


    Eloise hung her head and took a while before saying softly, "Sister-inw, I can''t go back! What will


    happen if I go back? My parents, as well as my brother, won''t let Emerson be raised for nothing. They


    will seek justice for me..."


    Madelyn looked at her. "Shouldn''t they?"


    Eloise froze.


    Madelyn gently touched little Emerson''s hair and said tenderly, "You can''t keep living here."


    Eloise still refused.


    She hugged little Everest and kissed him, saying, "Everest, you''ve grown so big. This is the first time


    Auntie has seen you... Auntie doesn''t have any gifts for you."


    She took off her ne.


    It was the only thing she brought from the rk family.


    She wanted to give it to little Everest.


    Madelyn turned away, but couldn''t help but cry in the end.


    Eloise cried too!


    Little Emerson, being young, also got scared by the adults'' appearance and started crying. Little


    Everest touched his spiky hair and said softly, "Edward said boys don''t cry, they bleed!"


    Little Emerson looked at her with longing eyes.


    Little Everest gave him a kiss. She was as fair as her, with the same brown hair.


    In the end, Madelyn couldn''t convince Eloise.


    She promised Eloise not to tell Benjamin, which put Eloise at ease. As she was leaving, Madelyn gave


    Eloise over ten thousand yuan in the bag and said she woulde back tomorrow.


    Eloise epted it.


    At that moment, both she and Madelyn felt a bit surreal. Who could have imagined that the prestigious


    Eloise would also breathe a sigh of relief for over ten thousand yuan one day!


    Madelyn couldn''t bear it.


    She felt extremely suppressed and cried heavily leaning against a tree as she walked out of the old


    building.


    Little Everest leaned against her, hugging her leg. Madelyn squatted down, embraced her, and


    continued crying.


    Little Everest touched her head and said, "Daddy knows, he will definitely feel sorry for you!"


    Madelyn gradually calmed down.


    Of course, she couldn''t let Eloise and the child live in such a ce, and it was inconvenient to tell


    Alexander. If so, how disappointed and heartbroken would the parents be?


    She thought it would be better for Benjamin to handle this matter.


    Madelyn touched Little Everest and whispered, "When Daddyes home tonight, you tell him that


    Mommy cried and that you saw Auntie... understand?"


    Little Everest raised her little head and pondered carefully.


    After a while, she asked, "Mommy, why don''t you just tell Daddy directly?"


    Madelyn: ...


    Her rtionship with Benjamin was still a problem. How could she bring herself to cry to him?


    Little Everest shook her head and said, "The adult world is reallyplicated!"


    ...


    In the evening, eight o''clock.


    Benjamin came home from overtime work, and Madelyn was teaching Everest to y the piano.


    She was wearing a light pink long dress, with a slender waist, and a glimpse of her fair and translucent


    legs under the dim yellow light.


    Little Everest yed skillfully. Benjamin sat next to Madelyn and was about to tease her.


    Suddenly, his gaze froze... Madelyn saw him return and stopped ying, asking gently, "Have you


    eaten?"


    Benjamin chuckled, "You''re suddenly so gentle, I''m actually a little unustomed!... Make me a bowl of


    noodles!"


    Madelyn went to the kitchen.


    Benjamin took off his coat and casually threw it aside. He picked up Little Everest and asked, "What


    happened to Mommy?"


    Little Everest remembered her task.


    She sat on her father''s knee, her fair and tender face wrinkled, "Mommy cried today!"


    Benjamin frowned.


    Little Everest dropped another bombshell, "Mommy met Auntie and a cute little brother."


    Eloise?


    Little brother?


    Benjamin felt a surge of anger, but he calmly touched Little Everest''s head and smiled slightly, "From


    now on, when Mommy cries, you have to tell Daddy."


    Madelyn brought the noodles over.


    She was particrly considerate today and even set up chopsticks for him.


    Benjamin''s gaze was deep. He didn''t ask her in front of Little Everest but quietly finished the bowl of


    noodles.


    When Little Everest fell asleep.


    He walked into the children''s room, sat by the bed, held Madelyn''s hand, and asked gently, "Everest


    said you cried today! You''re an adult and a mother, why are you still crying? Did I neglect you?"


    Madelyn sat up, "If you want to ask something, just ask. Why bring up these things?"


    Benjamin smiled ambiguously, "Didn''t you send me a message through Everest? I have to feel sorry for


    you first!"


    Madelyn turned her head to look.


    Little Everest was sound asleep.


    She carefully lifted the nket and spoke softly, "Let''s talk outside."


    But Benjamin stopped her.


    His voice was hoarse, "Don''t get up, just say it like this! Everest won''t wake up."


    Madelyn contemted for a while, "I saw Eloise."


    Benjamin pretended not to understand and snorted, "That''s a good thing! Where is she?"


    Madelyn looked at his expression.


    She was really hesitant to tell him because, after all, her dear sister suddenly had a child, and anyone


    would find it hard to handle!


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Madelyn was trying to please him. She ced her hand on his shoulder and gently caressed it, "Don''t


    be angry, she has a child with her."


    Benjamin looked at her hand.


    How could he not know her thoughts? Usually, he is willing to carry her to the master bedroom. He


    believes that tonight she won''t reject him.


    But tonight, he is not in the mood...


    There was a spark in Benjamin''s eyes, but his tone was casual: "This is a good thing! Run out for one,


    Madelyn somewhat understood him.


    Seeing that he was about to leave, she held onto him and whispered softly, "Let''s go together


    tomorrow!"


    There was anger in Benjamin''s heart.


    She was so gentle and submissive, as if she could do anything for Eloise, even offering herself to him


    now. It made him both angry and amused...


    Suddenly, he dragged her beneath him and kissed her.


    He kissed her roughly, making Madelyn somewhat ufortable, but she still yielded to him, letting


    him have his way.


    Benjamin kissed her neck and then stopped.


    He leaned against her neck and breathed lightly, "Go to sleep early, we''ll go together tomorrow!"


    Seeing that he agreed, Madelyn felt relieved.


    She gently closed her eyes, her obedient appearance made him feel slightly moved, unable to resist


    the temptation, he kissed her deeply and shallowly for a long time...


    Late at night.


    Benjamin changed his clothes and went out. The car drove into an old alley, and when he opened the


    car door, Benjamin''s eyes suddenly throbbed in pain.


    His precious sister lived in such a ce.


    Leaning slightly, he knocked on the door.


    After a while, Eloise''s voice came from inside, trembling, "Who is it?"


    Between Benjamin''s slender fingers, there was a cigarette, and his voice was deep, "It''s me! Open the


    door!"


    Eloise slowly opened the door.


    Her face lost color, and her voice trembled, "Brother!"

 Chapter 244 Tell Me Who Is The Father?

    Chapter 244Tell MeWhoIs The Father?


    Chapter 244 Tell Me Who Is The Father?


    In the dark night, in a dpidated house in a small alleyway,


    Benjamin stared at his sister, who had been in pain for many years. He looked at her in clothes and


    then at the rundown house behind her.


    His eyes began to ache, and his hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly.


    After taking a deep drag of smoke, he walked inside and looked around, asking, "Where''s the child?"


    Eloise was taken aback and asked, "Did my sister-inw tell you?"


    Benjamin replied impatiently, "No, she didn''t tell me. Did she help you hide and continue living in this


    broken ce?... Whose child is it?"


    Up until now, he truly didn''t know who the child''s father was.


    Eloise tried to block him from entering the room.


    Benjamin stubbed out the cigarette and exhaled thest puff of smoke, saying, "Tell me."


    Whoever it was, within a day, he would give that person a good beating!


    Eloise stood in front of the bedroom door and pleaded softly, "I''m doing well with Emerson! Brother, I


    can take care of him myself. Please don''t ask anymore!"


    Benjamin''s eyes reddened.


    He was only half a step away from her. He reached out, pulled her behind him, and entered the


    bedroom himself.


    The bedroom was simple, less than 10 square meters in size.


    Apart from the old bed, there was only a small desk with dozens of magazines on top.


    Benjamin walked over and flipped through those 18+ magazines. The covers all featured Eloise--Ms.


    Green of the rk family!


    His Adam''s apple bobbed a few times, and then he approached the old bed.


    The child was sleeping soundly, so small.


    A fair face with a short, brown hairstyle.


    Those familiar eyebrows and eyes, along with that unique hair color, made Benjamin''s eyes well up!


    He didn''t ask who the child''s father was anymore because he didn''t need to ask!


    Benjamin suddenly turned around and red at his own sister.


    Eloise''s lips trembled, and her entire face contorted. She pleaded cautiously, "Brother, don''t look for


    him! Please don''t look for him... I''m separated from him."


    Benjamin reached out and gently touched the little one.


    Warm and cozy...


    Benjamin paused for a moment and asked softly, "Him? Which him? Eloise, tell me!"


    Eloise covered her mouth.


    Deep down, Benjamin already knew whose child it was.


    Suppressing his voice, Benjamin said, "When did you get involved with him? Do you know what you''re


    doing? He''s over ten years older than you, someone with his status in his forties who doesn''t get


    married. He''s been with so many people, how could he be interested in a little girl like you?"


    Eloise felt extremely embarrassed.


    She knew that she had overestimated herself!


    Benjamin didn''t ask any further. He took off his coat and dressed little Emerson, then gently picked him


    up.


    "Brother!" Eloise grabbed his arm and pleaded.


    In the dim light, Benjamin''s face was as calm as water. "Either youe back with me now, or I''ll call


    Keh and have hime pick you and your son up. You choose one!"


    Eloise had no choice.


    She packed a few clothes and left with Benjamin.


    When they were going downstairs, Emerson woke up.


    He looked at Benjamin drowsily, with a slightly frightened expression but no tears.


    Benjamin touched his head and said very gently, "I''m your uncle! Mommy is here too!"


    Emerson saw Eloise beside him.


    He closed his eyes peacefully.


    Seeing this, Benjamin''s heart ached. When they reached the car, he carefully ced the little one in


    the child seat and then looked at his sister.


    Eloise silently got into the car and whispered, "Please don''t tell Mom and Dad for now, okay?"


    "You''re still afraid, huh?"


    Benjamin snorted coldly, closed the car door, and went around to the front to get in. He was really


    annoyed and wanted to smoke, but he held back because of the child.


    There was silence for a while, and then he gently pressed the elerator.


    After half an hour, the car slowly entered the gate of the vi.


    Originally, Benjamin didn''t n to disturb Madelyn, but she already had something on her mind, and


    the sound of the door opening and closing woke her up. She put on a robe and quietly got up.


    Standing in the stairwell, she saw Benjamin holding Emerson, with Eloise following behind.


    Madelyn was momentarily stunned.


    Benjamin whispered, "Tonight, let Emerson sleep with Everest first! You talk to Eloise!"


    Madelyn nodded.


    She continued upstairs and opened the door for Benjamin.


    Benjamin carried Emerson inside and gently ced the little one in the bed where Madelyn had been


    lying...


    Perhaps the bed was too soft, and little Emerson didn''t wake up.


    Everest, on the other hand, woke up slightly. He opened his eyes just a crack, then turned over and


    hugged Emerson, holding him as if he were hugging a puppy while sleeping...


    The two had simr fair faces, features, and chestnut hair.


    Benjamin''s heart softened.


    He touched little Everest, then lightly touched Emerson, and softly said, "This child looks like his


    father!"


    Madelyn felt guilty.


    Benjamin turned around and spoke gently, "You should have figured out whose bastard it is, right?"


    He said it rudely!


    Madelyn whispered, "Don''t let the child hear. Let''s talk about it tomorrow!"


    Benjamin red at her fiercely.


    In the past, Madelyn would have been afraid of him, but now she wasn''t so afraid anymore... As she


    walked out of the bedroom, she had the courage to say, "You shouldn''t take your anger out on me! It''s


    not like I did it!"


    Benjamin''s expression softened a bit.


    He held her hand and said, "Spend some time with Eloise. I''ll go to the study and smoke a cigarette."


    Madelyn nodded.


    In reality, they hadn''t resolved their own issues yet, and they still had resentments between them, but


    when faced with what happened in the family, they instinctively relied on each other.


    What should they do?


    Eloise called him brother and called her sister-inw!


    Madelyn led Eloise to the guest room and whispered, "Your brother is angry, don''t mind it! Take a


    shower first, and I''ll make you ate-night snack-your favorite fried chicken."


    Just as she was about to leave, Eloise held onto her tightly.


    Madelyn''s heart became moist.


    She patted Eloise''s back and whispered, "You should havee back earlier! Your brother is really


    angry!"


    Eloise softly called out, "Sister-inw!"


    Madelyn tidied up her hair for Eloise and said, "I''ll go prepare some food. You take a shower first!


    There''s everything you need inside!"


    Eloise murmured in agreement.


    After preparing thete-night snack, Madelyn went downstairs and Eloise followed.


    Eloise was wearing her own pajamas, made of cotton fabric that had almost faded in color from


    washing.


    Madelyn noticed it.


    She didn''t say anything, just trembled slightly in her voice and said, "Come and eat! It''s all your favorite


    dishes!"


    Eloise sat down to eat.


    She remained silent, no longer the chatterbox she used to be, like a printer running out of words.


    Madelyn stayed by her side.


    After they finished eating, tears welled up in Eloise''s eyes. She said, "Sister-inw, I''m scared! Back


    then, he couldn''t marry me, and now... I''ve almost forgotten about him."


    How could she still have feelings for him?


    For the past two years, she had been raising her child alone, living in such difficulty, worrying every day


    about form money and rent.


    The romantic and morous moments they once had seemed like fleeting smoke, blown away by the


    wind...


    asionally, she would see him in the newspaper.


    He was still that respectable, spirited Mr. Ryan.


    And she, Eloise, was no longer the youthful and tender girl, as time had worn away all her edges...


    Madelyn couldn''t make any promises to her.


    She softly said, "Your brother will eventually let go of his anger! But he definitely won''t harm Emerson!"


    Eloise nodded with tears in her eyes.


    Madelyn settled her down and went to find Benjamin in the study.


    Pushing open the heavy door to the study, it was dimly lit, with only a small wallmp illuminating the


    room.


    Benjamin sat behind the desk, smoking. The ashtray in front of him was full of cigarette butts, a sign of


    his frustration and annoyance.


    Madelyn closed the door and went to open the window.


    She whispered, "Why do you smoke so much? Aren''t you afraid of choking?"


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin quietly watched her.


    Tonight was different from usual. Madelyn took the initiative and walked up to him, sitting on hisp and


    gently embracing him...


    Benjamin stubbed out his cigarette and leaned against her shoulder.


    Just like that, they embraced each other silently for a long time before he finally spoke up softly,


    "Madelyn, am I a failure? If it weren''t for my insistence on going to Monatiz, your uncle and Eloise


    might not have had a chance to get together. Keh''s time in the hospital was probably a catalyst for


    their rtionship!"


    Madelyn asked in a low voice, "Do you agree?"


    Benjamin lightly pinched her slender waist and said, "Why don''t you ask my parents about that? Do you


    think I''m easily swayed, so you''re putting in effort with me first and then nning to persuade my


    parentster?"


    Madelyn didn''t deny it; she slowly leaned her face towards his.


    Benjamin''s face was very warm...


    After a while, he asked softly again, "Are you speaking up for your uncle or pleading for Eloise?"


    Madelyn shook her head.


    She held onto his shoulder and spoke softly and tenderly, "Neither! It''s for Emerson!"


    Benjamin remained silent.


    Madelyn was too clever; she knew what was on his mind.


    Indeed, he was currently angry with Eloise and that old man. The only person he cared about was that


    child. She casually brought up the child, effectively capturing his attention.


    Madelyn cradled his handsome face and took the initiative to give him a light kiss. "Regardless of the


    circumstances, let''s give Emerson the utmost dignity, okay? He will definitely grow up in the rk


    family, go to school, get married, and have children."


    She was so good with words, staring into his eyes. "He is also rted to you by blood."


    Suddenly, Benjamin chuckled softly.


    He pulled her closer into his arms, pressing his forehead against hers. "But he really looks like that


    idiot."


    Madelyn didn''t argue.


    She kissed him gently, using her feminine tenderness to soften him.


    Benjamin held onto her slender waist, sliding his hands up and down. His voice was low and deep,


    "Madelyn, are you trying to solve this with your body? Let me tell you, even if we do it tonight, the


    things I need to do after getting out of bed won''t be any less!... Besides, I hope that we truly reconcile


    and that our married life happens naturally because we both desire each other, not for anyone else."


    Madelyn didn''t tease him any further.


    Shey on his shoulder, feeling the warmth of his neck, listening to his rapid heartbeat, and murmured,


    "Benjamin, it seems like you have much better self-control now!"


    His gaze was deep, and he disagreed with her.


    "Madelyn... You''re my wife, and I want to respect you! I want to make you trulyfortable and make


    every moment we spend together worth remembering!"


    ...


    Madelyn couldn''t bear to listen anymore.


    Wasn''t he supposed to be angry? Where did all these sweet wordse from?


    She got up from his legs, silently tidied her sleepwear. But Benjamin pulled her back and passionately


    kissed her. After kissing for a while, he whispered, "Tonight, let''s sleep in the master bedroom!"


    Madelyn didn''t refuse.


    Mainly because she knew that tonight he wouldn''t be in the mood for anything else.


    As shey on the bed in the master bedroom, she quietly contemted. The difficulties between her


    and Benjamin were mostly emotional issues between the two of them, rather than involving Eloise and


    her uncle too much.


    Madelyn thought deeply, half-dreaming and half-awake, when she heard the sound of a car starting


    downstairs.


    She was startled and immediately got up and ran upstairs.


    Benjamin''s car had already driven away.


    She quickly asked the servant, "Where did Mr. rk go?"


    The servant shook their head, indicating they didn''t know.


    At that moment, Eloise also rushed downstairs with a pale face. She guessed what had happened...


    Madelyn said softly, "Don''t worry, I''ll ask Paisley."


    Disturbing somee at night was generally not good, so Madelyn spoke very politely.


    Paisley readily told her, "Mr. rk arranged a private jet to fly to Vadiff."


    Madelyn thanked her with a faint smile.


    She hung up the phone and looked at Eloise. "Your brother went to Vadiff."


    Eloise tightly held Madelyn''s hand. "Sister-inw, I''m scared."


    Madelyn was also helpless. Benjamin''s phone was already turned off, so there was no way to stop him


    from going to Vadiff.


    She hugged Eloise and whispered, "How about... let them have a fight!"

    Chapter 245 Benjamin: I Just Want A Word from Mr. Ryan!


    Vadiff.


    At the entrance of the rks'' mansion, a shiny ck sedan drove in.


    The car came to a slow stop.


    A slender figure got out of the car, and the servant respectfully greeted him, "Good day, young master!"


    Benjamin frowned, "Where is Mr. Ryan?"


    The servant, sensing something wrong with his expression, didn''t know how to respond.


    Keh happened toe out and saw Benjamin, asking indifferently, "Why are you here so early?"


    Benjamin gritted his white teeth.


    He sneered, "Of course, I''vee to find you, Uncle!"


    Keh nced at his watch, "Unfortunately, I have a meeting shortly. The driver is already waiting!"


    Benjamin blocked his way and said with a fake smile, "It won''t take much of Uncle''s time. We can talk


    and then you can go."


    Keh frowned.


    Benjamin lowered his head, lit a cigarette, took a few slow puffs, and then spoke in a calm voice, "I


    want to talk to Mr. Ryan about Eloise!"


    Mr. Ryan?


    Keh signaled, and his secretary and the servants all withdrew.


    Once the scene was cleared, Keh also lit a cigarette.


    Standing in the wind, smoke rose and dissipated as he breathed in and out, and his handsome face


    appeared clear and blurry at times.


    After a while, he asked hoarsely, "How is she doing?"


    Benjamin sneered, "How is she doing? A girl who is dragged on until the age of 31, not returning home,


    not getting married, renting a shabby 40-square-meter house outside... Mr. Ryan, what do you think of


    her situation?"


    Keh''s slender fingers, holding the cigarette, trembled slightly.


    He was ustomed to maintaining a calmposure in his high position.


    But even after more than two years, upon hearing news about that person, he couldn''t help but feel


    unsettled.


    He spected that Benjamin knew something!


    Keh''s voice became hoarser, "Why... why doesn''t shee home?"


    Benjamin stared at him with an intense gaze, as if he wanted to tear him apart.


    Yes, he came to settle the score with Keh!


    However, he had no intention of revealing Emerson''s existence. Eloise, the rk family''s heiress, was


    Benjamin''s sister. There was no reason to use a child to manipte a man...


    He stared at Keh and asked slowly, "How long did you sleep with her?"


    Keh''s eyebrows twitched.


    After three years of hiding, the truth was finally exposed.


    He took a deep drag on his cigarette, took his time, and said, "About half a year! It started when


    Madelyn was in the hospital... and then we had an on-and-off rtionship for another six months."


    Benjamin reminisced for a moment.


    During that six months, Madelyn went abroad, and Keh seemed to always be on business trips to


    Gredax.


    So that''s how it was.


    Benjamin sneered, "Before Mr. Ryan engaged in such actions, did he ever consider his own age and


    Eloise''s age... We are still rted by marriage! Yes, you certainly don''t have to care about these things


    because sleeping with her is not illegal for you, but... ask yourself honestly, out of all the times you slept


    with her, was there ever a time because you wanted to marry her? Was there ever a time that wasn''t


    just to satisfy your own animalistic desires?"


    Keh looked deeply into Benjamin''s eyes.


    He couldn''t refute it!


    Benjamin stubbed out his cigarette, took off his coat and casually tossed it aside, then began rolling up


    his shirt sleeves.


    He sneered, "Can''t say it, huh?"


    Frowning, Keh asked, "Are you going to fight me?"


    Benjaminughed coldly, even more so, "Mr. Ryan, do you have any objections? Let me tell you... my


    current identity is Eloise''s brother. She may be innocent and timid, but I''m not easily fooled. Now I''m


    asking you, what are you nning to do?"


    Keh was always decisive.


    He and her could never be together from the beginning. They had been separated for over two years


    now, and there was no need to involve her in hisplicated life.


    He quietly extinguished his cigarette and said, "It''s impossible between me and her!"


    Benjaminnded a punch without any mercy.


    Keh endured the blow, flesh against flesh, and soon his profile was covered in bruises.


    Benjamin''s knuckles were slightly swollen, but he threw another punch.


    At this moment, Kaleb, who had been hiding nearby, stepped forward quickly and reached out to stop


    them, persuading, "Mr. rk, calm down! You and Mr. Ryan are family, don''t get angry so early in the


    morning!"


    Benjamin pushed him aside and continued fighting Keh.


    "You bastard! My sister is 16 years younger than you!"


    "How could youy a hand on her?"


    "Where do you think you''re going?"


    "Do you want me to recount all the things you did to Madelyn?"


    "Clean up your own mess first!"


    ...


    No one was holding back!


    The servants in the house watched from afar and knew that the young master was fighting with Mr.


    Ryan, but they didn''t know why!


    Kaleb was clever and ran into the courtyard to seek reinforcements and brought Athena.


    Athena hurried over.


    As soon as she arrived, she saw her son and son-inw fighting fiercely. Both sides were fighting as if


    their lives depended on it, with bruises on their faces and bodies.


    "Stop!" Athena angrily shouted.


    Keh stopped first, taking a step back and looking at Benjamin. "We''ll talk about this another day. I


    have a meeting to attend now!"


    Benjamin wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth and sarcastically said, "With Mr. Ryan looking like


    this, how can you go to a meeting? Aren''t you afraid of beingughed at and affecting Mr. Ryan''s


    perfect image?"


    Keh was speechless.


    Athena stood between them and admonished her son, "How old are you? And how old is Ben? You''re


    usually a mature person, so how did you end up fighting with someone younger? And in front of the


    servants too! How are you going to discipline others in the future?"


    She clearly showed favoritism.


    In his mind, Keh cursed Benjamin''s ancestors, but he gently appeased his mother, "Because of


    Madelyn! Mom, just leave it alone!"


    Athena disagreed, "Aren''t they a good couple now?"


    Keh rubbed his nose.


    Benjamin helped the olddy sit down. He had won her favor, so he directly exposed the olddy''s


    secret, "He has been dating my sister... for more than half a year!"


    Keh: ...


    Athena was stunned.


    She picked up her cane and waved it at her son, scolding him, "Tell me if this is true! Tell me! I always


    thought you were powerful when facing Ben, but today you kept quiet. It turns out you did something


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    shameless... Today, I''ll beat you to death and apologize to their parents myself!"


    She hits hard.


    Keh took several hits behind his back, and it stung painfully.


    He had always been filial and didn''t dare to anger the olddy any further. He knelt directly in front of


    her, "It''s my fault! I couldn''t control myself! But... we''re notpatible."


    Athena was visibly taken aback.


    She hadn''t expected her son to admit it so readily.


    She remained silent for a long time before whispering, "Losing control once is one thing, but you''ve


    been dating her for six months. What does that say? Keh, you know your own abilities and charm.


    It''s easy for young girls to fall for you. If you reject her just like that, what will she do in the future?"


    She was clearly disappointed and started to leave.


    Benjamin quickly helped her up.


    The olddy looked at him and said softly, "Tomorrow, I will personally go to Gredax to apologize to


    your parents and that girl. This is a result of Keh''s wrongdoing, and I will give an exnation to


    your family."


    Benjamin came in with frustration.


    But at this moment, his heart couldn''t help but soften, and he took the initiative to say, "I also have my


    impulsive moments."


    Athena shook her head, "What''s wrong with standing up for your sister!"


    Benjamin said quietly, "I''m not trying to force anything. I just want my uncle to make a statement. If he


    doesn''t have those feelings for Eloise, then... I will arrange for Eloise to go on blind dates."


    Keh felt a wrench in his heart.


    Blind dates...


    These two words, in his calm and unruffled heart, felt like a giant rock had been dropped.


    It stirred up unrest in his mind!


    Benjamin calmed down, stood in front of Keh, and spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, "She didn''t say


    anything, but I could feel that she really liked you and was deeply hurt! If you saw her now, you might


    not even recognize her... Uncle, Eloise was raised in the rk family. She has never washed a dish or


    done any housework, but she... but she..."


    Benjamin''s voice choked.


    He made an effort to calm himself down before whispering, "If you don''t want her, then don''t disturb her


    anymore!"


    Keh''s emotions surged.


    He once... had a deep fondness for that innocent girl.


    They separated because he felt it wasn''t right.


    The past was being dug up now, and it was not that he didn''t want to see her, but what would happen if


    they do meet? They entered a dead end more than two years ago.


    Keh spoke softly, "I''m the one who owes her an apology! Tell her that she can ask for any kind of


    Benjamin''s gaze was deep.


    He smiled faintly, "The rk family doesn''t need anypensation. All I wanted was a word from Mr.


    Ryan. Now that Mr. Ryan says it''s not suitable, I can rest assured! I''ll go back and tell my foolish sister


    to give up early, and then make her go on blind dates... Maybe she won''t encounter someone like Mr.


    Ryan again, but it''s not difficult to find someone who truly cares for her!"


    After saying this, Benjamin turned around and left...


    Keh stood there, looking somewhat dazed.


    Kaleb pondered for a moment and said softly, "Mr. Ryan, please gather yourself. We have a meeting


    soon!"


    Keh remained in a daze.


    After some time passed, he suddenly became furious, "What''s the point of having a damn meeting! I


    don''t even have the freedom to like a woman, so why bother with a meeting?"

    Chapter 246 When I Fought with Him, Who Are You Worry about?


    Benjamin returned to Gredax at 10 am.


    The vi was quiet.


    Little Everest had gone to school, Madelyn held Emerson and talked with Eloise.


    In that moment, Benjamin''s restlessness subsided a bit.


    He stared at Madelyn for a long time before going over to take the child from her arms. He calmly said


    to Eloise, "Now, with your sister-inw, we''ll take you home!"


    Eloise looked somewhat flustered.


    She looked at Madelyn.


    Benjamin snorted softly, "Scared now? You were out there on your own having children. Were you not


    scared back then?"


    Eloise dared not speak.


    Madelyn supported Benjamin''s arm and gently pressed a tissue to his handsome face as she asked in


    a low voice, "You got into a fight with Vadiff? What did you say?"


    She was particrly gentle and considerate. How could Benjamin not understand her thoughts?


    He replied in a t voice, "Yes, I got into a fight! But I didn''t mention anything about Emerson! If he has


    a heart, he''ll find out eventually..."


    He couldn''t help but sarcastically add, "Isn''t he always all-knowing?"


    Madelyn nced at Eloise, who didn''t dare to retort.


    It was really heartbreaking!


    When Benjamin went upstairs to shower and change clothes, Madelyn followed him. In the bedroom,


    she continued, "You''re right, if Uncle has any intentions towards Eloise, he''ll find out sooner orter."


    Benjamin had taken off half of his clothes.


    He turned his head and smiled, "Are you speaking up for both sides now? Madelyn, how did I not see


    this before?"


    Madelyn helped him pick out an outfit and pointed with her finger, "You don''t have to mock me with this


    matter! I can get involved or not..."


    Before she finished speaking, he hugged her.


    Then she was pressed against the wardrobe.


    Benjamin held her slender waist and caressed her face with one hand, "Of course you should get


    involved! You are Eloise''s sister-inw, you usually have the best ideas, help me take care of her...


    hmm?"


    Madelyn leaned on his shoulder and smiled faintly, "Aren''t you afraid that I''ll take Uncle''s side?"


    Benjamin took a step forward, leaning close to her ear and whispered softly, "When I fought with him,


    who are you worry about?"


    He deliberately teased." Madelyn also felt it. She pressed her lips against his and murmured softly, "No


    one."


    Benjamin chuckled softly.


    He felt much better, and he had the intention to flirt with her. Perhaps because he had been repressed


    these past few days, he eagerly wanted to be close to her. Even though time was not abundant and it


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    wasn''t the best timing, he gently slipped his hand into her clothes and made herfortable for a


    while.


    Afterwards, she leaned against his shoulder, trying to catch her breath.


    Benjamin lovingly held her in his arms, and after a while, he said, "Don''t leaveter! My dad has a bad


    temper and might say some hurtful things!"


    Madelyn shook her head. Her eyes were slightly moist as she whispered, "If I don''t go, his anger will


    only grow!"


    After she finished speaking, Benjamin remained silent and unmoving for a long time.


    Madelyn looked up and asked, "What''s wrong?"


    He touched her delicate earlobe and spoke in a hoarse voice, "You mentioned my dad... Madelyn, am I


    still your husband in your heart? Do we still have a chance to go back to how things were, right?"


    Madelyn''s earlobes turned slightly red. She pushed away his hand and said, "We''re discussing serious


    matters."


    Benjamin took the hint and lightly pinched her earlobe before taking his clothes and heading into the


    bathroom.


    ...


    Around noon, Benjamin and the others returned to the rk family estate.


    The butler ran inside excitedly to report, "Miss Eloise has returned!"


    "What?" Alexander stood up happily, waving his hand and saying to his wife, "This child has been


    wandering around for years, and she finally knows toe back."


    Brianna was also excited.


    The two of them immediately went outside and saw a ck Maybach parked in the courtyard. Benjamin


    opened the back seat...


    Eloise got out of the car, holding the hand of a two or three-year-old boy!


    Alexander''s eyes widened.


    Brianna was also stunned.


    The household staff dared not make a sound...


    After a long pause, Alexander regained his voice and said, "Eloise, is this child yours?"


    Eloise didn''t dare to lift her head and murmured softly in response.


    Alexander was extremely angry and wanted to go up and reprimand her, but Brianna, with tears in her


    eyes, held him back and said, "After finallying back, restrain your temper! Besides, there are so


    many people here. Give Eloise and the child some face!"


    Alexander red at his wife fiercely.


    Once they entered the hall, the family sat down, and Benjamin handed Emerson over to Alexander.


    Alexander''s anger still burned, and he stared at his son, saying, "Do you think I would let this matter go


    just because of the child? She hasn''t finished dealing with this matter yet, sneaking around outside by


    herself..."


    Suddenly, Alexander fixed his gaze on little Emerson!


    Then, he looked towards Madelyn... Those simr eyebrows and eyes, fair skin, and even the chestnut-


    colored short hair, they were practically identical!


    Alexander''s anger subsided, and he seemed less confident.


    He sighed softly, "What a twisted fate!"


    Brianna also noticed the resemnce and wore a troubled expression.


    What could they do?


    Alexander reached out and caressed the little one''s cheek. He was undeniably adorable, and


    Alexander genuinely liked him. He turned to his son and said, "Ben, you handle this matter!"


    He felt uneasy deep down.


    Raising his eyes and looking at his beloved daughter, seeing her in attire, a wave of heartache


    washed over him.


    After a while, he spoke softly, "Just stay here aftering back! You can''t keep living at your brother''s


    and sister-inw''s ce all the time. They have their own private lives... Your mother and I will take


    care of the child."


    He didn''t utter a word of me, but he was still heartbroken.


    After saying that, he went upstairs to his study alone.


    Brianna burst into tears and said, "Both of you siblings never give me peace of mind!"


    Eloise clenched her lips and whispered, "Mom, I''m sorry!"


    Madelyn exchanged a nce with Benjamin.


    Benjamin went upstairs.


    He pushed open the study door, and the room was filled with smoke, the pungent smell of cigarettes


    wafting through the air.


    Benjamin opened the window and extinguished Alexander''s cigarette butt, saying, "You''ve smoked very


    little in recent years, iming it''s for Everest''s health. Why are you so happy today when Eloise came


    back?"


    Alexander looked up at his proud son and sneered, "Happy? Which eye of yours saw me happy? Look


    at her, how many times has she done something earth-shattering? The same goes for Daniel and


    Keh! They all ended up having children!"


    Benjamin brewed him a cup of coffee.


    Pouring a cup, Benjamin ced it in front of Alexander and whispered, "I went to Vadiffst night and


    had a fight with Keh! He doesn''t know about Eloise having a child!"


    Alexander ced his hand over his eyes and sighed softly, "He was unintentional towards Eloise,


    wasn''t he?"


    After taking a sip of his coffee, Benjamin spoke, "It''s not that he waspletely unintentional! If he had


    no intentions at all, someone as cautious as him wouldn''t have maintained such a rtionship with


    Eloise for over half a year... I think Keh felt it wasn''t suitable! Who knows Eloise''s father better than


    you?"


    So, that''s why he didn''t mention Emerson''s existence.


    The rk family can afford to raise a child.


    Upon hearing this, Alexander fell silent...


    He was still shocked and couldn''t understand how his precious daughter ended up getting involved with


    a ruthless person like Keh, especially considering their families'' inw rtionship!


    After a while, Alexander spoke, "Given the situation, don''t make things difficult for Madelyn. She''s


    caught in the middle and it''s not easy for her! Don''t let this affect your marital rtionship."


    Benjamin nodded, "It won''t!"


    He suddenly smiled and said, "Although Madelyn doesn''t say it, I can tell she wants Eloise to be with


    Keh."


    Alexander wiped his face, "That''s her kind-heartedness! Women always want things to work out!"


    After the father and son finished talking, they went downstairs together.


    Alexander put on a different face and showered affection on Emerson. The little face resembled


    Everest and Madelyn.


    Alexander held the child and said to Madelyn, "Ben has to go to thepany, so leave the child here.


    You apany Eloise to the department store and get some things for her and Emerson. The current


    situation is uneptable."


    As he spoke, he lovingly kissed Emerson.


    Madelyn nodded, "Don''t worry, Dad, I will." Benjamin chuckled and pinched her cheek, "You certainly


    have the demeanor of a daughter-inw from the rk family!"


    Madelyn pushed his hand away.


    Benjamin wasn''t annoyed and turned to his sister, saying, "If you dare to run away again, I''ll break your


    leg!"


    Eloise teared up.


    Little Emerson felt scared and clung to Alexander''s embrace.


    Alexander felt sorry for his grandson and immediately reprimanded his son, "Why did you scare her?


    Look, even Emerson is afraid!"


    Benjamin smiled and nced at Madelyn before leaving in his car.


    ...


    After having dinner with the rk family, Madelyn took Eloise out.


    Two yearster, Eloise still felt somewhat restrained.


    Madelyn was considerate and took her to some niche brand stores that weren''t too expensive, at least


    notpared to what Eloise used to wear.


    In half a day, Madelyn bought a lot for Eloise and Emerson.


    While having coffee, Madelyn took out a ck gold card from her bag and ced it in Eloise''s hand.


    "Your brother asked me to give this to you. It''s his supplementary card."


    Eloise was hesitant to ept it.


    Madelyn closed her hand and whispered, "He may look fierce, but he cares about you a lot! Stay at


    home with peace of mind in the future, or you cane and stay with us. Little Everest also likes


    Emerson."


    Eloise nodded in response.


    Madelyn had an extra diamond ne in her hand, designed by a famous designer named Clido.


    Embedded on it was a very rare deep-water pearl. She put it on Eloise and said gently, "Eloise, I''m d


    you''re back!"


    Eloise touched the precious pearl and tears welled up in her eyes.


    She understood her sister-inw''s intention. She wanted Eloise to be the old Eloise again, not


    someone who treated herself as an outsider with caution.


    Eloise started crying in the bustling caf¨¦, and Madelyn embraced her tightly.

 Chapter 247 Kenneth: Lets Meet

    Chapter 247 Keh: Let''s Meet


    Chapter 247 Keh: Let''s Meet


    Madelyn didn''t return to the vi until 9 o''clock in the evening.


    Dim yellow light spilled out from the hall, casting a warm glow in the foyer.


    Everest sat at the piano while Benjamin apanied him.


    Benjamin was dressed in a ssic three-piece suit. He had taken off his coat, revealing his slender and


    well-built figure. Upon seeing Madelyn, he lightly swayed his wine ss and asked, "How was your


    shopping?"


    Madelyn put down her bag and sat on the sofa, gently massaging her sore legs.


    Everest wanted to run over...


    She had initially learned to y the piano to find her mother, but now... she couldn''t let it go!


    Benjamin gently held back her brown curls and said seriously, "y this piece five more times!"


    Everest: ...


    Daddy was so mean. When you asked me to help you win mom over, you didn''t look like this!


    Everest continued ying the piano with great enthusiasm!


    Madelyn felt amused and exasperated as she said to Benjamin, "She''s only four or five years old. Why


    do you have to push her like this?"


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Benjamin squatted in front of her, massaging her feet, his voice soft and gentle. "She has talent!


    Madelyn... I''ve always wanted to apologize to you, but no matter how many apologies I give, your feet


    can never fully recover. So, I want to give Everest another choice!"


    Madelyn remained silent, simply gazing at him.


    She rarely looked at him like this because in the past, she had always avoided developing such


    feelings for him.


    After a long while, she whispered, "Even though that''s the case, don''t push her too hard! I want Everest


    to live freely, and besides... with you here, she won''t becking in the future."


    Benjamin smiled lightly. "It''s rare that I still have some merits in Ms. Green''s heart."


    They changed the topic and talked about Eloise for a while.


    Benjamin had probably thought a lot during the day. He held her snow-white instep and murmured, "I


    won''t force you or make you do anything because of Eloise''s situation! They are them, and we are us!"


    Madelyn looked at him under the light.


    Her gaze carried a touch more tenderness than usual, natural and not deliberately done to cate him.


    Benjamin became somewhat emotional.


    His voice was hoarse as he said, "Madelyn, do you perhaps like me a little?"


    Madelyn reached out and lightly touched his handsome face. "It seems like I do, just a little!"


    Benjamin chuckled softly.


    Just as they were both bing somewhat emotional, little Everest angrily yed the piece five times


    and ran over, demanding that Daddy massage her feet.


    Benjamin doted on her.


    He held the little girl in his arms, not only massaging her feet but also her hands.


    Finally, Everest stopped feeling jealous and nestled in his embrace, feeling a bit embarrassed as well.


    Madelyn ruffled her little head and said to Benjamin, "She really likes you."


    Benjamin yfully flicked her nose, saying, "She''s still getting jealous at this age."


    That night, Madelyn still slept with little Everest.


    Benjamin didn''t bring up the idea of her sleeping in the master bedroom again, nor did he demand any


    intimacy from her. The way he had acted towards her in the walk-in closet during the day without her


    pushing him away... showed that she no longer rejected him like that.


    He wasn''t in a hurry.


    This time, he wanted to take it slow with her.


    To have a serious, proper love.


    ...


    At night, Eloise stood on the terrace.


    Emerson was with Brianna, and this was probably the most rxed evening she had in years. She


    should have been happy, but after going through so much, she could never return to being the carefree


    Eloise she once was.


    Suddenly, a phone call came from inside the room.


    She walked over to answer it, and it was an unfamiliar number.


    Eloise didn''t think too much and immediately picked up the call. "Hello!"


    The person on the other end remained silent for a moment before speaking hoarsely, "It''s me."


    Eloise''s whole body froze.


    It was... Keh.


    She had never anticipated receiving his call, especially after their unpleasant separation. When they


    parted ways, she left with despair and resentment.


    Her lips trembled, but she ultimately couldn''t say anything.


    Inparison, Keh appeared much calmer. He asked softly, "Did your brother say you haven''t


    been home for two years?"


    Eloise felt as if her throat was blocked.


    She suppressed her emotions for a long time before managing to squeeze out a voice, "Mr. Ryan, why


    are you calling me? We made it clear that we wanted nothing to do with each other."


    Keh''s tone carried a hint of tenderness, just like how he used to coax her in the past. "Your brother


    said you''re not doing well."


    Eloise half-closed her eyes and replied, "I''m fine now!"


    Silence lingered between them.


    After a while, Keh spoke softly, "I''m in Gredax! Can we meet? I''m still in that apartment."


    Eloise finally exploded, "Meet? Mr. Ryan, what do you take me for?"


    "Are you a delicacy that you suddenly remembered, or one of your many admirers?"


    "Am I that unbearable to be seen?"


    ...


    Keh''s breath hitched.


    His voice remained gentle, "Eloise, it''s just a meeting, let''s have a meal together."


    Eloise restrained herself and whispered, "Mr. Ryan, I won''t go anymore!"


    She abruptly hung up the phone.


    Late at night, she cried alone on the terrace for a long time...


    She didn''t know when she started liking Keh, maybe it was when she saw him working in the


    hospital, or when she saw him smoking ale at night. Perhaps it was because she witnessed a


    man''s loneliness...


    She called him Uncle Ryan.


    She was afraid of upsetting her brother, so she always carefully stayed by Keh''s side, trying to


    make him happy.


    As time went on, he allowed her to stay close to him.


    He often stayed upte, and sometimes when she got tired, she would sleep on the couch in his small


    office. One night, she woke up and found him covering her with a nket. His face under the bright


    light was particrly attractive, and she couldn''t help but call out, "Uncle Ryan..."


    Later, they kissed.


    Keh is much older than her and a mature man. He effortlessly maniptes women.


    That night, he toyed with her yfully.


    But... he didn''t possess her.


    It was the first time she realized that a man''s skills could be so good... In the following days, she tried


    to avoid him and didn''t dare to see him.


    He didn''t seek her out again.


    It wasn''t until the night Everest was leaving, and Keh got drunk that she couldn''t help but go check


    on him.


    Drunk Uncle Ryan looked very attractive.


    She couldn''t resist kissing him... And then they made love.


    On that narrow couch, she kept calling him Uncle Ryan and surrendered herself to him relentlessly... At


    that time, she didn''t even know how much she liked him; she only knew that everything about him


    attracted her.


    She thought it would only be one night between them.


    Butter, he started going on frequent business trips to Gredax.


    He bought a very nice apartment there, beautifully decorated, and every time he came, he would find


    her.


    They were sweet and loving in that apartment.


    He cooked for her when he came over, and after eating, they would indulge in each other...


    During that time, she was enchanted, knowing she shouldn''t be, yet still sumbing to his charm. He


    never mentioned marriage or talked about the future with her. Unable to resist, she went to Vadiff to


    find him...


    It was only then that she realized they couldn''t be together!


    He was an unmarried man, and she was yet to be married...


    But all he could offer her, from beginning to end, was the secret sweetness within the apartment.


    She had never been allowed to be seen by him publicly!


    Keh sat in the car.


    The car stopped downstairs of the apartment, and he made a phone call from there.


    Actually, he shouldn''t havee, but he couldn''t resist and deliberately made the trip, even hiding it


    from his personal secretary.


    She refused and wouldn''te.


    Nevertheless, Keh still went upstairs, opened the apartment door, which had already been


    cleaned.


    Everything was the same as before, just missing a person.


    Keh rarely experienced such a sense of loss in his calcting life, nor did he often feel the desire


    to see someone so strongly.


    He sat on the couch in the apartment for an entire night.


    He remembered the past passion, remembering her nestled in his arms, calling him Uncle Ryan over


    and over again.


    No other girl had her kind of innocence.


    Who beside him wasn''t crafty and scheming?


    A person like him had long lost sincerity, but in his early forties, he found himself lost in a love game


    with a young girl. He liked her, but he didn''t want her to be tainted by his world.


    His world was too dangerous.


    And she couldn''t protect herself; she needed his divided attention and protection.


    So after that incident, not only did she feel cold and hopeless, he also felt that they were not suitable


    for each other... After more than two years apart, he thought he had forgotten, but Benjamin shattered


    that illusion.


    Turns out, he hadn''t let go.


    The first rays of morning sunlight entered the apartment.


    Keh got up and made breakfast. After finishing, he habitually went to the bedroom, intending to


    wake the girl up for breakfast, as usual. She ate a lot but was easy to feed, always enjoying junk food.


    The bedroom was empty.


    The fragrance she left on the bedding had long disappeared.


    Keh slowly retreated from the bedroom and had breakfast alone...


    Kaleb called, saying there was a meeting at ten o''clock.


    Keh calmly spoke, "Postpone it to tomorrow! I''m in Gredax and want to see Madelyn and Everest."


    Kaleb understood what was going on.


    He sighed lightly, "If we talk about who Mr. Ryan owes anything to in this lifetime, it''s only Eloise!"


    Indeed, Keh was indeed going to see Madelyn.


    He bought the toy that little Everest likes and went over early. Fortunately, Benjamin had already left on


    a business trip, so they didn''t run into each other.


    But Madelyn knew the truth and always felt somewhat ufortable when they met.


    She watched Keh doting on little Everest with an affectionate expression, and she couldn''t help but


    think of Emerson.


    She asked softly, "Uncle, have you ever thought about starting a family?"


    Keh smiled and said, "What''s this? Are you acting as a matchmaker for your grandmother?"


    Madelyn remained silent and quietly brewed coffee.


    After a while, she spoke softly, "I can see that you love children, Uncle."


    Keh picked up little Everest and kissed him. "Having little Everest is enough for me!"


    Little Everest lovingly kissed him, holding his handsome face in his small hands. "Emerson is also


    handsome, with brown hair like Everest''s and fair skin."


    Keh frowned and asked, "Who is Emerson?"


    Madelyn ced the coffee on the coffee table and hugged little Everest. "He''s a child from the rk


    family."


    That statement wasn''t a lie.


    However, Keh didn''t think much of it and forced a smile.


    He came here to inquire about Eloise''s situation after all, but Madelyn was particrly tight-lipped and


    didn''t reveal a word. Keh felt that she was very crafty.


    Madelyn kept himpany in conversation and handed her phone to little Everest.


    Little Everest looked at Keh and then at his mother.


    Madelyn gave a faint smile, and little Everest immediately understood.


    With his tender little fingers, he tinkered with the phone.


    [Auntie, I miss you!]


    [


    Mommy doesn''t feel well, can youe and take me to school?]


    ...


    After finishing, little Everest threw the phone onto the sofa.


    Keh didn''t agree with it too much. "It''s not good for such a young child to y with a phone!"


    Madelyn calmly checked and lightly smiled. "She does her own kindergarten assignments on it.


    Benjamin insists on fostering her independence."


    Only then did Keh refrain from saying anything!


    He sat down briefly and was about to leave, as his mood wasn''t good after all.


    Madelyn insisted he stay for a cup of coffee. She heard the sound of a car in the courtyard and smiled,


    "Alright, I won''t keep Uncle here! Another day, I''ll bring Everest to visit Grandma at Vadiff."


    Keh gently patted her head and turned to leave.


    Madelyn apanied him to the door.


    On the parking lot, a white Bentley slowly came to a stop. Eloise got out of the backseat with a smile


    and spoke, "Sister-inw, Everest said you''re not feeling well..."


    She suddenly stopped, her gaze fixed on that person.


    Keh did the same.


    He had not expected to see her here, and his gaze was deep, with a slight hint of unease.


    Eloise, she was very different from before!

 Chapter 248 You Used to Call Me Uncle Ryan

    Chapter 248You Used to Call Me Uncle Ryan


    Chapter 248 You Used to Call Me Uncle Ryan


    Keh stared at Eloise.


    She had changed so much, so much...


    Once radiant like a wealthy flower, she was now much slimmer, and her dress no longer had the


    delicate colors of the past, but leaned towards a mature charm.


    She had transformed from a girl into a woman.


    In that instant, Keh knew that he still longed for her.


    He stared intently at her face and whispered, "Long time no see, Eloise."


    Eloise''s emotions were out of control.


    Her voice choked, and she mustered all her strength to say, "Mr. Ryan, it has been a long time."


    They exchanged nces.


    Madelyn found it difficult to be caught in the middle. She picked up little Everest, had the driver take the


    reliable nanny to send her to kindergarten, and little Everest obediently kissed her and said, "Goodbye,


    Mommy!"


    Madelyn also gave her a kiss and said, "I''lle pick you up tonight!"


    Everest got down from her, held the nanny''s hand, and obediently went to school.


    Madelyn turned around and cleared her throat, saying, "I''ll make some floral tea!"


    Eloise became somewhat dependent and held onto her, saying, "Sister-inw!"


    Madelyn smiled and said, "You two talk."


    ...


    Keh looked at Eloise and whispered, "Come in!"


    Eloise lowered her head and went in, but as soon as she entered, he grabbed her wrist and dragged


    her into the bathroom.


    The bathroom door closed, creating a small space.


    And her back was pressed against the wall.


    Keh propped one arm above her head, trapping her with his body. There was a faint tobo scent


    emanating from him, which made her feel somewhat dizzy...


    For a long time, no one spoke.


    After a while, Eloise trembled and said in a soft voice, "Let me go!"


    Keh stared at her and lowered his voice, "I waited for you all nightst night!"


    She suddenly looked at him.


    In those eyes, tears filled every corner, ready to fall with the slightest blink.


    So she dared not blink.


    She didn''t want to cry in front of him. After they separated, she had endured so much hardship. What


    did it matter if she cried in front of him now?


    Keh was also struggling.


    He nced towards the direction of the door and then shifted his gaze to her face, softly asking, "Why


    didn''t youe home for two years?"


    Eloise smiled faintly, "What does it have to do with Mr. Ryan? If I don''te home, it must be because


    I''m fooling around outside... What right do you have to ask?"


    Fooling around...


    Keh''s gaze became unfathomable.


    He reached out and lightly touched her face, causing her entire body to tremble... Even her teeth were


    chattering.


    "So unwilling to let me touch you? Have you found a boyfriend?"


    Eloise''s face turned pale.


    She stared at his eyes and whispered a word through her clenched teeth, "Yes!"


    In that moment, darkness clouded Keh''s eyes.


    He loosened his grip on her.


    Eloise tried her best to steady herself and asked, "Can you let go of me now? Mr. Ryan, as a charming


    and elegant man like you, I''m sure you won''t be short ofpany!"


    "Mr. Ryan? Eloise... You used to call me Uncle Ryan!"


    "That was when I was young and ignorant!"


    ...


    Eloise ced her hand against his chest and pushed him away little by little, saying, "My sister-inw is


    Keh released his hold on her.


    She took hold of the doorknob, gritted her teeth, and as she opened the door, she heard his hoarse


    voice from behind, "Eloise, do you really want to part ways with me like this? We can restore our


    previous rtionship. You can call me Uncle Ryan, and I will take care of you!"


    He felt sorry to her.


    He thought that if she found a good man, he would bless her.


    He would give her anything she wanted!


    Eloise tilted her head slightly and restrained herself before whispering, "No need! I don''t need it!"


    She could never forget what happened back then.


    She secretly went to Vadiff to give him a surprise but was kidnapped.


    In the dark room, she spent 36 hours alone, without water to drink, unable even to use the bathroom,


    tied to a chair like that... The kidnappers said they wanted the chip in his hands.


    She was very scared.


    But she thought he would do anything to save her!


    But on the phone, Keh''s voice was calm andposed, "Sorry, I don''t know her!"


    Later, she was rescued...


    She thought he hade and she was still his sweetheart, but when she walked out of the dpidated


    shack, what awaited her was not his embrace but a beautiful scene of him standing side by side with


    another woman.


    It turned out she wasn''t the only one who was kidnapped.


    He imed not to know her, left her to fend for herself, but used the chip to save other women.


    She saw him embracing that person, seeing his tenderness.


    Onlyter did she find out that she was one of his beloved confidantes!


    In Vadiff, every woman who adores Mr. Ryan is more charming than Eloise, more gentle and


    considerate.


    She stood before him looking miserable...


    That word "Uncle Ryan" could never be uttered again.


    He had someone settle her in, and onlyte at night did he enter her room. The first thing she said


    when she saw him was, "Eloise, let''s end this here!"


    She looked up and still asked... why!


    Keh sat on the couch, quietly watching her for a long time before uttering, "We''re notpatible!"


    Tears welled up in her eyes.


    She didn''t let him stay.


    She choked and said softly, "Okay! Goodbye, Uncle Ryan!"


    That was thest time she called him Uncle Ryan, and also thest time she saw him.


    Keh couldn''t bear it.


    He wanted to give this innocent girl who loved him wholeheartedly a final hug, but she dodged him,


    restraining her voice, "I''ll leave... tomorrow morning!"


    Keh hesitated, staring at her for a while, and then left.


    As soon as the door closed, she started crying.


    On the bathroom counter, there was a used pregnancy test stick with two faint pink lines on it.


    Before he came, she had thought about telling him that she was pregnant.


    But he told her it wasn''t appropriate...


    ...


    Looking back, his heart still ached.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    As he walked out, Madelyn sat on the couch in the lobby with two cups of coffee in front of her.


    Seeing tears in Eloise''s eyes, she gently smiled, "Finished talking? Come over and have some coffee!"


    Eloise sobbed and called out, "Sister-inw!"


    She sat next to Madelyn, feeling extremely miserable.


    The man she once loved so passionately, from beginning to end, was nothing more than a momentary


    pleasure for him! What was even sadder was that she still loved him, but it was because of that love


    that she couldn''t forgive herself or him!


    Madelyn let her lean on her shoulder.


    Keh came out, and the atmosphere was delicate.


    There were certain things he couldn''t exin to Eloise, and he couldn''t explicitly tell Madelyn... After all,


    no matter what, he had let her down.


    Keh whispered, "Take care of her! I''m going back to Vadiff."


    He was leaving...


    Madelyn asked softly, "Uncle, when I asked youst time if you ever thought about starting a family,


    now... I want to ask again!"


    Keh paused his steps.


    Actually, there were thoughts of it.


    During the six months when he was with Eloise, he had thought about starting a family because that


    time was too beautiful for him. It was beautiful like a poison that was difficult to quit!


    But what did it matter?


    Now, he couldn''t say it.


    Keh''s voice turned chilly as he softly said, "No."


    Madelyn nodded. "I understand. By the way, Uncle... Grandma is here. Everyone is heading to the


    rks'' mansion now!"


    Keh turned around.


    Eloise''s face also lost color.


    Madelyn sipped her coffee lightly and then smiled. "It''s not me who invited her! She insisted oning


    to apologize!... Uncle, older people tend to be more conservative."


    Keh''s gaze fell on Eloise''s face, and she looked back at him.


    Neither of them ever thought that the absurdity of those six months would continue to this day.


    Finally, Keh whispered, "Let''s go."


    Eloise refused to ride in the same car with him and insisted on taking the driver''s car, while Madelyn


    said she wanted to change her clothes and would jointer... The two cars left, and Eloise made a call


    to Benjamin and asked him toe along!


    Half an hourter.


    Keh''s car arrived first, and he bumped into Athena at the entrance of the rks'' mansion.


    Athena had a grand scene, with a total of 18 ck cars and 12 servants to carry gifts. It seemed more


    like a marriage proposal than an apology.


    Keh had a lot of influence outside, but he was particrly filial.


    When the olddy red at him, he had no way to resist.


    The rks'' mansion was very big, so it wasn''t a problem to park 20 cars. The cars filled the mansion


    instantly.


    When the butler reported, Alexander was ying on thewn with Emerson.


    Emerson was rolling a ser ball and never grew tired of it.


    After the butler finished speaking, Alexander lit a cigarette and exhaled a smoke ring slowly. "Let them


    It was a good opportunity to meet this child!


    The butler immediately went to invite Athena and Keh, smiling and saying, "Mr. is ying with the


    young master over there. There''s a pavilion. Grandma and Mr. Ryan might as well go there!"


    Athena immediately took her son and went over.


    Alexander was holding a cigarette, looking from a distance.


    Well!


    He still remembered the first time Keh came to the rk family. The grandeur and aura were as if


    he wanted to conquer the rk family. But today...


    Following his mother, he appeared so submissive and lowly!


    Athena approached closer.


    The butler led them to sit in the gazebo and served them coffee.


    Alexander carried Emerson over, the little one was sweating profusely from ying. Alexander took a


    towel from the servant''s hand and wiped away his sweat, holding him like a precious treasure on his


    Athena initially didn''t pay much attention and was still contemting how to speak.


    But then, a nce!


    Something wasn''t right!


    This little face and hair color, they were carved from the same mold as Madelyn. Upon closer


    inspection, there was also a strong resemnce to Keh, especially in the expression between the


    eyebrows.


    Athena lost herposure...


    Keh did too.


    He looked at that child, his blood froze, he could hardly believe his eyes.


    This was the Ryan family''s child!


    But he was sure, absolutely sure, that Madelyn didn''t give birth to him!


    Keh was in his forties, it''s not that he didn''t long for a family or having a child, but he was too busy


    and reality didn''t allow him to think about it!


    But now, such a child was right in front of him!


    He crouched down in front of Emerson, his voice trembling slightly, "Who is your mother?"


    Alexander directly told him, "Eloise''s child!"


    Keh clenched his fists...


    Eloise had given birth to his child!


    He really wanted to touch his own flesh and blood, but Emerson looked at him with unfamiliar eyes,


    actually a little scared...


    Keh suppressed his emotions and slowly stood up.


    Just at that moment, Eloise''s car returned, and she stumbled over to pick up Emerson.


    Everything... didn''t need further exnation.


    Athena''s mouth opened wide, finally managing to squeeze out a sentence, "This is Keh and


    Eloise''s child?"


    She hade to apologize, after all, her son had yed with the girl''s feelings.


    But now, out of nowhere, they suddenly had a grandchild!


    The olddy was in her seventies, thinking that she would never get to hold a grandchild in her lifetime.


    Suddenly, a beautiful and tender grandchild appeared before her...


    She suddenly felt that 18 cars were not enough!


    Not sincere enough!

 Chapter 249 His Belated Apology

    Chapter 249 His Bted Apology


    Chapter 249 His Bted Apology


    In the hallway of the rk mansion, Alexander introduced Keh''s mother to Emerson, "Emerson,


    this is Grandma!"


    Although Emerson was a bit shy, he mustered up the courage and approached Athena, jumping into


    her arms.


    Athena held the little boy and experienced a whirlwind of emotions.


    There was delight, but also a hint of guilt!


    Despite her advanced age, she insisted on holding Emerson and nting a gentle kiss on his cheek.


    The gifts she had brought were initially intended to secure a marriage for her son.


    But now, all those gifts were given to her grandson.


    As Keh sat beside Athena, his gaze lingered on the child for a moment before shifting to Eloise,


    who was sitting across from him.


    Eloise understood his curiosity and admitted, "Yes, we have a child!"


    Keh closed his eyes gently, trying to find the truth.


    It must have been during hisst visit to Gredax when she became pregnant.


    And when she went to Vadiff, she must have already known about the baby.


    At that time, how did she have the courage to end their rtionship?


    Keh failed to make it clear, but he realized that their rtionship had ended.


    He was no longer the naive young man. He understood that a woman, who could stay away from home


    for two years and raise a child alone, must bear her love for the child and harbor some resentment


    towards him.


    Keh''s gaze darkened.


    Suddenly, he remembered what Benjamin had previously mentioned: "A girl in her thirties who doesn''t


    get married or live alone, how can she live well?"


    Just as he was lost in these thoughts, Benjamin returned with Madelyn.


    Benjamin observed the scene in the hall and smiled, "What''s going on today? Why is everyone


    gathered here?"


    He lovingly touched Emerson''s face and warmly greeted Athena.


    Athena had always admired Benjamin, and now she still relied on his help. So, her admiration for him


    was stronger.


    Benjamin sat down with Madelyn, quickly grasping the situation.


    He nced at his own father, and Alexander also looked back at his son.


    They exchanged nces, neither of them wanting to be the viin in this situation.


    Finally, it was Brianna who broke the silence.


    Tearfully, she called out, "Alexander!"


    Alexander got her meaning and took a sip of coffee.


    He smiled and said to Athena, "The kids are so naughty to make trouble. Let''s hear their suggestions."


    Athena finally rose from her seat.


    Observing the awkward situation, Madelyn took Emerson outside.


    With no children present, Athena found it easier to take action.


    She spoke sternly, "Keh, the rk and Ryan families are already married. What''s more, Eloise is


    younger than you... How could you hurt her?! You even left her and made her bring up Emerson alone


    for many years! How dare you!"


    Keh, standing before her, was extremely obedient.


    His face was filled with shame. "I''m sorry, Grandma!"


    Athena waved her hand. "You owe an apology to Eloise, not me! You have to take some action now."


    Keh went straight to Alexander and Brianna, then knelt down.


    They were shocked by his decisiveness.


    Considering Keh''s respected status, it seemed out of character for him to plead or kneel before


    others.


    Alexander, being a reasonable person, understood that Eloise must have had genuine feelings for


    Keh, as evidenced by her secret birth of Emerson.


    Moreover, Alexander had already fought with Benjamin.


    Considering that, Alexander gave a nce to his wife.


    Then Brianna helped Keh up and gently said, "It is better for you to have a discussion. After all,


    Elosie and you already have a child."


    Athena felt even more ashamed.


    Benjamin looked at his sister and inquired. "Eloise, what''s your opinion?"


    Eloise calmly stared at Keh, and he returned her gaze.


    She was clearly knowing that now due to Emerson, he was obligated to marry her.


    However, she had no desire to marry him!


    Why did she have to choose him?


    Suddenly, Keh interrupted her thought.


    "We need to have a private discussion," he said.


    Eloise looked at her brother.


    And Benjamin took a sip of coffee and sneered softly, "It''s a good idea for you two. Don''t worry, he is


    too old to hurt you."


    Indeed, there were some truths that were unsuitable for the elders to hear.


    So Eloise agreed, and they moved to a small flower hall.


    Eloise stood by the window, her back turned to Keh.


    She softly confessed the truth, "I discovered I was pregnant during ourst meeting! But I only found


    out after we broke up."


    Keh gazed at her back, shaking his head.


    He replied gently, "You''re lying, Eloise. You already knew before we broke up, didn''t you?"


    Eloise took a deep breath and admitted, "Nothing can escape Mr. Ryan''s observation. Yes, I realized I


    was pregnant on the night we broke up! I wanted to tell you, but you had already rejected me."


    Actually, even if he hadn''t rejected her, it would have been impossible for them to have a future


    together.


    After all, she also wanted to maintain her dignity.


    Mr. Ryan had encountered so many captivating women, how could a little girl like her dare to win his


    love?


    She turned to Keh and smiled faintly, "Madelyn taught me that sometimes it''s better to let go of


    everything than to hold onto something. She chose to stay with Benjamin because little Everest needs


    his care..."


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    "But Mr. Ryan, Emerson has never had a father in his life, and he''s healthy. So we don''t have to force


    ourselves to be together just for the sake of the child!" she said.


    Eloise became more rational as she even weed Keh toe to Gredax anytime to spend time


    with Emerson.


    And there was no way she would ever consider returning Vadiff!


    Absolutely not!


    Elosie said a lot, but Keh remained silent, sitting on the sofa and smoking...


    Unlike his mother, who found satisfaction in having a grandson, he knew that precisely because of the


    child that Eloise resented him even more and was less willing to forgive him.


    He was a cautious and thoughtful person.


    Even when faced with strong emotions, the woman he loved, and his own son, he could maintain his


    Because there were too many factors he needed to consider.


    In the time he took for a cigarette, he seemed to have figured everything out.


    He asked her softly, "Have you made your decision?"


    Eloise murmured in agreement.


    Keh approached her, his hand almost reaching out to touch her hair as he had done in the past.


    However, hesitating at thest moment, his hand fell back down.


    After a long pause, he finally asked in a hoarse voice, "Was it hard to survive outside these past two


    years?"


    Eloise nodded.


    He didn''t say anything more; he simply pulled her into his embrace.


    Without any desire or even romantic feeling, it was like an elderforting a junior as he held her


    silently...


    This kind of tenderness was like poison to Eloise, and she didn''t want to sink into it.


    She gently pushed him away. "From now on, we are only Emerson''s parents, nothing more."


    Keh didn''t insist.


    From the shadows of the curtain, he spoke softly, "Eloise, when I was with you, no one else existed!"


    Eloise visibly hesitated, then smiled faintly. "I don''t care about that now!"


    ...


    Keh informed them of their decision.


    Athena was furious, thinking that her son was irresponsible.


    The rk family, on the other hand, remained calm.


    Alexander eptedpensation from Keh on behalf of Eloise. He also received child support for


    Emerson, which were all responsibilities a man should fulfill.


    He told Athena, "Keh and Eloise have their own ideas, and we need to ept it. Besides, they


    have already broken up a long time ago, insisting on their marriage tie is indeed impolite. Anyway, if


    you would like to visit Emerson, we wee you."


    Athena felt somewhat disappointed.


    Brianna warmly invited Athena to stay at the rk family for a few days.


    As for Keh, he had a lot of work to do and needed to return to Vadiff in the afternoon.


    For now, the matter was settled.


    In the afternoon, as Madelyn picked up Everest, she couldn''t help but think about it.


    But Benjamin smiled faintly and said, "It makes sense! If Keh hadn''t hurt Eloise so much, she


    would definitely have repaired their rtionship two years ago."


    He pondered for a moment and added, "Well, Eloise has changed a lot in these two years."


    Madelyn''s heart softened at his considerate thoughts.


    She turned to Benjamin and deliberately said, "Eloise is quite brave! Maybe we shouldn''t just reconcile


    for the sake of the child..."


    Benjamin nced at her.


    He gently stepped on the gas pedal and drove for a while before smiling.


    "Have we really made up? It has been two months since west had any intimate moments, Madelyn...


    can you call this making up?"


    Madelyn remained silent.


    There was no point in arguing with him.


    Both of them fell into silence, burdened by past issues, their hearts weighed down.


    At a red-light intersection, Benjamin gently held her hand and whispered, "Dress up nicely for our


    anniversary, for me, hmm?"


    Madelyn responded lightly, touched by his change.


    She had witnessed his transformation and was moved by his improved treatment towards her and


    Everest.


    Even when dealing with this sensitive issue, he disyed unexpected restraint and patience.


    Nowadays, they lived together and had a child together, and Madelyn was willing to treat him better.


    So, when she received his intimate hint, she agreed.


    As for the wounds of the past, she knew they would take time to heal.


    Little did Madelyn realize how significant her nod was to Benjamin.


    Over the past three years, he had gone without a romantic rtionship, and even now, he saw her


    every day.


    But her positive response meant that she was willing to trust him and give herself fully to him!

    They finally picked up Everest.


    Benjamin got into the car and buckled his seatbelt, then suggested, "We''ve been quite busytely and


    haven''t had much time to spend with Everest. Let''s go out for a meal!"


    Madelyn patted Everest''s head gently, "Would you like to go?"


    Everest stretched her legs and yawned, saying, "It seems like Daddy wants to have a candlelight


    dinner with Mommy."


    The atmosphere became subtly awkward.


    Madelyn couldn''t understand why Everest knew so much!


    Her gaze met Benjamin''s in the rearview mirror, and hezily said, "Kids nowadays are knowledgeable.


    Don''t worry too much!"


    As for Everest, she kept talking about her kindergarten life.


    Of course, the one she mentioned the most was Edward.


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but worry.


    She felt that she needed to talk to Benjamin about it, as she was afraid that his words and actions


    might have a negative influence on Everest.


    Half an hourter, Benjamin stopped the car.


    Madelyn got out and realized they were at the French restaurant she had invested in.


    She looked at Benjamin.


    He leaned against the car door and chuckled, "I''ve noticed that when other people go out, it''s always


    their wives who pay for the meals. Madelyn... you''re not going to deny me even a single meal, are


    you?"


    Madelyn didn''t say anything.


    Benjamin walked ahead a little and lowered his voice, "Alright, I admit I was deliberate! I just wanted to


    make my mark in your life, to let everyone know that you are Mrs. rk and keep away any other


    men!"


    Madelyn had known this all along, so she responded indifferently, "I don''t have any intention like that."


    She attempted to carry Everest out of the car, but Benjamin swiftly hooked his arm around her waist


    and insisted, "Let me do it!"


    Observing this, Everest couldn''t help but smirk at her father''s chivalry.


    But she had to admitted that it was not bad to hold hands with both mom and dad!


    ...


    Inside the restaurant, Benjamin achieved exactly what he wanted.


    The employees and regr customers were aware that Madelyn was married with a child.


    Mr. rk effortlessly mingled with everyone, even joining the staff WeChat group.


    Madelyn had no idea but let him seek security.


    She cut the steak for Everest, gently teaching her how to use the knife and fork.


    Everest learned quickly...


    As Madelyn watched her chubby cheeks, her heart softened.


    Setting aside her rtionship with Benjamin, having Everest was already everything she desired.


    Although Everest needed very careful nurturing, Madelyn treated her as a redemption rather than a


    burden!


    Benjamin was initially pleased, but his good mood quickly crumbled when they unexpectedly


    encountered David.


    However, David wasn''t alone; he was apanied by his girlfriend, who happened to be a prominent


    David noticed Benjamin and Madelyn, extending a polite greeting, "Good evening, Mr. rk and


    Madelyn!"


    And Benjamin responded calmly.


    He stood up, embraced Madelyn, and smiled faintly at David.


    "Long time no see, David! Bringing your girlfriend for dinner?" he asked.


    David nodded in confirmation.


    His gaze fell on Madelyn but quickly shifted to Everest.


    That little child resembled Madelyn so much, and he couldn''t help but hold her lovingly.


    Everest willingly kissed David and called him "Uncle" in her soft, sweet voice!


    David''s girlfriend leaned over as well, and Everest generously gave her a kiss too.


    David''s heart tugged at the sight, and he murmured softly, "She''s adorable!"


    Benjamin smiled in agreement, saying, "Yes, she is! Madelyn and I have been discussing giving her a


    little brother or sister."


    David''s eyes darkened.


    Madelyn thought, "When did I agree to that?"


    Benjamin seemed unusually magnanimous that day, as he extended an invitation to David and his


    girlfriend to join their table.


    Madelyn admired hisposure as he engaged in discussions about stocks with David and even


    made ns to go out for a smoke together.


    David''s girlfriend eximed in admiration, "You and Benjamin have such a great rtionship!"


    Madelyn smiled faintly, maintaining a polite distance from David''s girlfriend.


    She had no intentions of developing a close friendship with her, as she understood Benjamin all too


    well.


    If she genuinely thanked David, she was supposed to keep her distance from him.


    Outside the restaurant, Benjamin and David stood together, smoking in silence.


    This was the first time they stayed in such a peaceful manner.


    Benjamin lightly patted David''s shoulder and remarked, "Your girlfriend looks great!"


    David looked up, calmly exhaling a ring of smoke, and smiled faintly.


    He asked, "Is this a constion for a loser?"


    Turning towards Benjamin, he asked, "When I went to Esrand, was the first business you secretly


    introduced to me?"


    The question hung in the air as Benjamin smoked in silence.


    Finally, he spoke bitterly, "At that time, Madelyn despised me so much! She genuinely saw you as a


    friend."


    It was evident that Benjamin still carried the weight of that past.


    Actually, he vividly knew that Madelyn never had romantic feelings for David. But whenever Benjamin


    hurt her, it always David stayed with her.


    He had to thank David.


    David finished his cigarette, crushing it under his foot.


    Benjamin taught him a lesson: pursuing someone with no promising future is a burden to women.


    He walked towards the restaurant.


    Benjamin watched his back and suddenly felt that David was very much like him years ago.


    ...


    After saying their goodbyes, they left the restaurant.


    In the car on the way home, Madelyn remained silent.


    Benjamin chose not to say anything either, keeping his thoughts to himself, likely out of consideration


    for Everest.


    When they stepped out of the car, they noticed that Everest had already fallen asleep.


    Benjamin carried her in his arms, his eyebrows and eyes filled with tenderness, while Madelyn followed


    behind him.


    They arrived at the children''s room.


    Benjamin set Everest down on the bed, while Madelyn lovingly changed Everest into cozy pajamas,


    attentively tending to her little hands and feet.


    Benjamin wrapped his arms around Madelyn from behind, his body molding against her delicate back.


    "Let''s talk, hmm?" he suggested.


    Madelyn turned her head slightly, "About what?" she asked.


    "David," Benjamin replied, "to be honest, I''m jealous!"


    ...


    When he returned to the restaurant, he couldn''t help but notice the genuine effort that Madelyn and


    David put into protecting each other.


    Their tacit understanding made Benjamin jealous.


    He was never one to conceal his emotions, so he spoke directly.


    Madelyn smiled lightly, "That''s all past story. Why are you mentioning it again? What''s more, there is no


    possibility between me and him!"


    Benjamin leaned against her back, his hands wandering mischievously for a moment.


    Eventually, he led her to the master bedroom.


    Madelyn hesitated, worried that they might wake up Everest, but Benjamin insisted.


    In the bedroom, Benjamin pushed her to the end of the bed, holding her hands tightly and kissing her


    passionately.


    They kissed for a while until Madelyn turned her face away.


    Benjamin breathed heavily into her ear, "Madelyn, I''ve been thinking about why I care so much about


    David... I don''t even have these feelings for Daniel."


    Madelyn looked at him, questioning, "So why?"


    Benjamin gently traced her delicate features, whispering, "Because he treats you well! No man treats


    you better than he does, including the previous me. So, I''m jealous!"


    Madelyn burst outughing, "Benjamin, then why don''t you let go of me?" she asked.


    He stared at her for a while before hoarsely saying, "You''ve returned, but it feels as if you haven''t truly


    Madelyn sincerely suggested to him, "Alright, I will apany you to see a therapist tomorrow."


    Benjamin whispered in her ear, "Madelyn, the real problem lies on you, not me!"


    He lightly bit her tender earlobe, "I just want you to desire me! Just like in the past, whenever you see


    me, you want to have sex with me... Madelyn, now you only see Everest! Even though you gave me


    some active responses, it was you feel obligated, not because you desire me!"


    Madelyn was speechless.


    Benjamin unbuckled his belt and gently tied it around her wrists.


    Madelyn stood there in a daze, "Benjamin, what do you want to do?"


    He untied his tie and nted a kiss on her cheek, his smile affectionate. "Nothing! I just want you to


    truly feel me!"


    Then, he covered her eyes, heightening her other senses.


    Benjamin kissed her for a while before kneeling beside her and taking out his phone.


    He yed a prepared recording and ced the phone gently by the pillow. "I set it on loop!"


    As Madelyn listened for a few seconds, her face grew redder.


    It was clearly a recording from a few years ago when they were in Esrand...


    She bit her lip and finally cursed him, "Benjamin, you are crazy! You..."


    Benjamin whispered in her ear, "I''m jealous! And you need topensate me!"


    Then he rxed his voice.


    "I''ll go to the study. I''ll returnter to check the results."

    Chapter 251 I Want to Date You!


    Chapter 251 I Want to Date You!


    Benjamin went to the study.


    He sat alone in there, quietly smoking.


    These past three years, he had been too busy, with very little time to miss Madelyn, let alone anyone


    else.


    Now, he finally had a moment to calm down...


    Forcing Madelyn to sever ties with David back then was one of the things he regretted the most. That


    incident permanently held a ce in Madelyn''s heart for David.


    Even if it wasn''t love, it was enough to make him feel bitter.


    Benjamin was feeling bitter. Just then, the study door was pushed open, revealing a small chestnut-


    colored curly head poking through. Little Everest, with bare feet and wearing adorable floral pajamas,


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    entered the room.


    "Daddy!"


    Little Everest pounced into his arms, snuggling and wrapping her arms around his neck.


    Benjamin held her small feet in his hands, kissed them gently, and asked softly, "Why are you awake?"


    Little Everest, half asleep and half awake, nestled in his arms, softly murmuring for her mommy.


    Benjamin thought of the woman in the master bedroom, his heart stirred... How could little Everest see


    Madelyn in such a state?


    He gentlyforted her, "Mommy is sleeping in daddy''s room!"


    Little Everest softly protested, "I want to sleep with mommy!"


    Benjamin held her with one hand, gently rocking her and telling her a bedtime story.


    Late at night, a slightly hoarse voice echoed in the room.


    It brought a sense of peace to those who heard it.


    Little Everest slowly fell asleep in his arms. Benjamin knew that if he put her down now, she would


    wake up. So he wrapped her in a small nket and held her,forting her for nearly an hour.


    In thete night, Little Everest fell asleep.


    Benjamin sat by the edge of the bed, looking at her fair and tender little face. Unable to resist, he


    leaned over and kissed her gently.


    This little child was his and Madelyn''s flesh and blood, and he loved her dearly.


    Little Everest turned over and hugged her carrot-shaped pillow.


    Benjamin couldn''t bear to leave immediately and stayed with her for a while.


    When he returned to the bedroom, he couldn''t help but pause.


    Madelyn''s hair was damp with sweat, and her forehead had fine beads of perspiration. The faint bluish


    mark at the corner of her eyebrow was particrly noticeable... She looked disheveled.


    Benjamin approached, bending down to look at her, his Adam''s apple bobbing.


    He loosened his tie and gently caressed her.


    Madelyn''s breathing became soft, her voice like a whisper with a touch of steam, "Benjamin... you jerk!"


    Benjamin understood women very well.


    He knew what she wanted, so he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Shower first or make love


    first?"


    Madelyn embraced him and kissed him...


    The air grew hotter and hotter!


    The atmosphere in the bedroom became enchanting. While kissing, the man spoke romantic words to


    the woman, "Call me Ben! Madelyn, call me Ben!"


    Suddenly, Madelyn stopped.


    She leaned close to his ear and said, "I''m going to sleep with Everest! Goodnight, Mr. rk!"


    She pulled away, patting his handsome face. "Mr. rk, you should taste this feeling too!"


    Benjamin didn''t stop her.


    He leaned against the headboard, his gaze deep as he watched her get out of bed to tidy up her


    clothes. He smiled lightly and said, "I can''t believe how patient you are!"


    Madelyn cursed him as a refined scoundrel!


    Benjamin chuckled softly. He was handsome and particrly good at teasing her. Madelyn simply


    dared not look...


    She took a shower in the guest room and went to sleep.


    Her phone beeped. It was a WhatsApp message from Benjamin: [I miss you so much!]


    Madelyn looked at those three words and smiled lightly.


    She didn''t reply, and he sent another message: [Come over and sleep with me! I won''t do anything... I


    just want to cuddle with you. In the morning, I''ll go for a run and bring back a rose for you to wake up


    to!]


    They had been entangled with each other for several years.


    She actually knew what he was thinking. He never forced himself on her; he just wanted to start over


    with her, to be in a romantic rtionship with her...


    She gently closed her eyes.


    These years, love and hate, it was all about Benjamin.


    Everything, was about Benjamin.


    She didn''t respond to him. She also knew that he didn''t mind whether she responded or not; he


    enjoyed the process of chasing after her... If they lived together and their whole lives were solely


    focused on Everest, it would be quite pathetic.


    In future rtionships, Madelyn didn''t want to live as someone who wasn''t valued. Benjamin had to


    Whether to give or how much to give, Madelyn wanted to have the final say.


    ...


    In the early morning, when Madelyn woke up, there was a fresh rose on her bedside table.


    She turned to the side and gently yed with the petals.


    This reminded her of when they were together, he used to often give her roses, but she didn''t know


    how different his mindset was back thenpared to now. Madelyn didn''t want to show signs of


    sinking.


    After freshening up, she went downstairs. Little Everest had already woken up and was having


    breakfast with his dad.


    As the father, he leisurely drank coffee and read the morning paper.


    Madelyn came over, and little Everest immediately wiped her mouth clean and behaved much more


    politely while eating.


    Madelyn kissed her on the cheek.


    Benjamin put down the newspaper and smiled, "She listens to you very well!"


    Those words were pleasing to the ear.


    But Benjamin continued, "I also listen to you. Whatever you ask me to do, I''ll do it. If you say not to do...


    something, I''ll listen to you!"


    Madelyn bit her lip and whispered, "Don''t corrupt Everest!"


    Little Everest continued eating...


    Benjamin''s expression became serious, his gaze slightly intense. "Did you sleep wellst night?"


    Madelyn ignored him. He already knew.


    Last night was too ambiguous. She didn''t have the face to send Everest with him, so she stayed home


    to tidy up and organize the rooms upstairs. Since she moved in, she had been taking care of these


    things.


    At ten o''clock, she called Eloise and arranged to go shopping with her.


    Everest Group''s anniversary celebration was approaching, and Madelyn hadn''t chosen her dress yet.


    Besides, she wanted to bring Mingzhu along and rx.


    Sphene Studio.


    Mrs. rk was a super VIP here, so when Madelyn and Eloise came, naturally the store was cleared.


    Madelyn carefully selected while chatting with Eloise.


    They inevitably talked about Keh.


    Madelyn wasn''t acting as a mediator; she discussed parenting experiences with Eloise. Although she


    had only been a mother for two months, she had more experience than Eloise. Probably because... she


    raised little Everest meticulously.


    Eloise gradually felt relieved.


    Madelyn picked one for her, and she went into the fitting room to try it on.


    Madelyn sat on the sofa, drinking coffee and waiting.


    The store manager came over with a somewhat embarrassed expression, "Mrs. rk, there''s a Mr.


    Campbell who is also our VIP... I''d like to discuss with you if we can make an exception!"


    Madelyn was understanding and agreed.


    But when the person was let in, she realized it was Daniel, apanied by a pretty girlfriend.


    Daniel was also surprised.


    He looked at Madelyn for a long time before uttering, "You''re back?"


    Madelyn nodded, smiling as she looked at them. "Feel free to do as you please."


    Daniel wanted to talk to her for a few moments, so he let his girlfriend choose her own dress. The girl, a


    second-tier female celebrity with good taste, tactfully steered clear. Daniel sat opposite Madelyn.


    He was originally going to smoke, but he took out my lighter and cigarette case and put them back


    down. He smiled faintly and said, "It''s been a long time. I heard your child with Benjamin is already four


    years old!"


    Madelyn nced at the magazine and replied indifferently.


    Daniel looked at her serene face, feeling somewhat perplexed.


    For a long time, he had been infatuated with her, wanting to possess her for himself.


    But after several years, it seemed like everyone had moved on while he remained stuck in the same


    ce. He couldn''t even distinguish whether he now loved Madelyn or just missed Eloise''s innocence...


    Just as he was feeling lost, Eloise came out.


    She didn''t notice Daniel and lowered her head, gripping the strapless dress, and whispered, "Sister-in-


    Madelyn remained silent.


    Eloise lifted her eyes and saw Daniel, her expression freezing.


    Back then, he cheated and supported another woman, causing the rk family to forcefully cancel the


    engagement. Daniel''s business suffered a heavy blow, but now, after several years, he had already


    stood up again and regained his charismatic Mr. Campbell image.


    Eloise smiled lightly.


    She nodded at him.


    Compared to her indifference, Daniel was much more shocked...


    He vaguely heard about her rumored rtionship with Mr. Ryan in Vadiff. At first, he didn''t believe it,


    but seeing Eloise''s demeanor, he believed it.


    This once bright and radiant face had lost its color.


    It had be subdued.


    But it had also gained some feminine charm.


    He used to think Eloise would never grow up!


    But she had grown up, in a way he couldn''t have imagined, for... another man!

 Chapter 252 Benjamin: I belong to Mrs. Clark!

    Chapter 252 Benjamin: I belong to Mrs. rk!


    Chapter 252 Benjamin: I Belong to Mrs. rk!


    The former unmarried couple met in silence.


    Daniel couldn''t even bring himself to ask about Keh.


    He had countless romantic encounters throughout his life, but deep down, he knew that besides


    missing Madelyn, he also missed Eloise.


    Now seeing her again, he felt like it was a lifetime ago.


    But Eloise had moved on.


    She ced her hand against her chest and nodded to Madelyn, saying, "I''ll change it!"


    Madelyn smiled faintly in response.


    Then, she saw a hint of disappoint in Daniel''s eyes, but she didn''t say anything. Some people were just


    like that. They only realized what they''ve lost after it was gone.


    Daniel left in haste with hispanion, not even bothering to try on the suit.


    As they were leaving, they coincidentally ran into Benjamin.


    Benjamin parked his car and looked at Daniel with narrowed eyes...the two men passed each other


    without a word!


    When he walked into the studio, Madelyn was still sitting there, flipping through a magazine while


    sipping her coffee.


    Benjamin sat down next to her and said, "You seem calm meeting your ex-lover!"


    Madelyn continued flipping through the magazine, indifferent as she replied, "You''re my ex-lover


    too!...Oh, I forgot that we got married, so you''re my ex-husband!"


    Benjamin chuckled in amusement.


    He lowered his voice and said, "Even after what happenedst night, you''re still being stubborn, huh?"


    When it came to arguing with men, women always ended up losing.


    Thinking of her exhausted state fromst night, Madelyn couldn''t help but feel a little embarrassed


    herself. She scolded him, "You rascal!"


    Benjaminughed softly.


    He unbuttoned his suit and took the magazine from her hands, flipping through it. "This dress looks


    good on you!"


    Madelyn didn''t continue arguing with him.


    She leaned closer.


    Benjamin put his arm around her shoulder, tilted his head slightly to admire her profile, and couldn''t


    help but whisper, "After the banquet, let''s go home, you wear this dress and serve me."


    Madelyn blushed. She knew exactly what he was thinking.


    But she also liked this dress.


    Benjamin''s taste was truly impable.


    She pointed at the magazine and asked a staff member to find the dress for her, but she didn''t let


    Benjamin see her try it on... Madelyn felt that even as husband and wife or lovers, there should still be


    some element of freshness.


    After picking out the dress, Eloise went home first.


    Benjamin took Madelyn and picked up little Everest to take photos for Everest Group''s public rtions.


    Madelyn hesitated slightly.


    Benjamin knew what she was thinking. He held the steering wheel, focused on the road ahead, and


    gently asked her, "Madelyn, am I not worth another act of bravery from you?"


    Being afraid that little Everest would overhear, he lowered his voice, "You''re willing to be with me, but


    not willing to marry me?"


    Madelyn leaned back in her seat and silently watched him.


    The traffic light turned red.


    He turned towards her, held her hand gently, and said, "Madelyn, we can be married and still date each


    other! I don''t just want your body, I want to have you in every way possible... Give me a chance, don''t


    reject me again!"


    Madelyn lightly sped his hand.


    If she didn''t give him a chance, how could she lie in his bed? How could she let him treat her like that?


    She wasn''t even angry with him or causing a scene.


    Benjamin turned his head to look at her.


    His gaze was gentle and deep, "This time, it''ll be just the two of us!"


    Everest in the back seat listened quietly.


    She seemed... about to have a mother!


    ...


    On the day of Everest Group''s anniversary celebration, they released their public rtions photos.


    Unlike before, when it was only Benjamin in the photos, this time the PR department of Everest Group


    released a family photo of the CEO.


    In the CEO''s office at Everest Group.


    Madelyn held little Everest in her arms as they sat on the couch. Madelyn was elegant and graceful,


    while little Everest managed to just keep a hint of a dignified smile only.


    Benjamin stood behind the couch, with his hand resting on Madelyn''s shoulder.


    His expression was very gentle.


    Anyone could see from this scene that the CEO of Everest Group deeply loved his wife!


    ...


    At 8 o''clock in the evening, at the Everest Hotel.


    The guests were pouring in, and almost all of Gredax''s elite came to show their support.


    Benjamin stood on stage giving a speech, his gaze asionally crossing over Madelyn. The look in his


    eyes waspletely the kind a man gives a woman, which was quite captivating.


    She looked stunning tonight.


    Wrapped in an emerald green silk gown that entuated her perfect curves, her slender waist showed


    no signs of having given birth.


    He could wrap his arm around it.


    And her delicate back curve was even more graceful...


    After Benjamin finished speeching, the host eximed excitedly, "Let''s give a round of apuse to our


    Mr. rk!"


    Benjamin smiled slightly, "I belong to Mrs. rk!"


    Everyone was stunned. They didn''t expect Benjamin to be so bold. Didn''t the newspaper report that he


    was very restrained in his private life and not inclined towards women?


    While the crowd was still in shock, Benjamin had already stepped down from the stage.


    He looked at Madelyn and gentlemanly smiled, "Mrs. rk, may I have the honor of dancing with


    you?"


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Madelyn looked at him, his impressive figure stirring something in her heart.


    They had been together since she was 24, for a total of five years. They had gotten married and had


    little Everest, but today was the first official public acknowledgment of their rtionship...


    She couldn''t remain unaffected.


    The music ying was Beethoven''s Moonlight Sonata. He held her in his arms as they danced, without


    any exceptional dance skills, just holding each other... They didn''t know how long they had been


    dancing when Benjamin lifted her face and gently kissed her.

    Madelyn never thought that Benjamin would kiss her in public, especially in such a setting.


    She kept her eyes open.


    So did Benjamin, as he looked into her eyes and softly said, "Close your eyes!"


    He kissed her passionately, his lips intertwined with hers.


    Madelyn''s body couldn''t help but tremble. "Benjamin, there are so many people watching!"


    Desire could be seen in his eyes. "Let them watch!"


    It was a deep kiss!


    At Everest Group''s anniversary celebration, Benjamin actually deep kissed his wife. Who can still say


    that he is celibate, or that he is not interested in women...


    Everest Group employees immediately thought bringing a big bed for the CEO.


    The rk family silently watched.


    Brianna''s eyes filled with tears as she gently covered little Everest''s eyes.


    Alexander held his wine ss, silently cursing Benjamin in his heart. What an embarrassing guy!


    After a long while, Benjamin was still not satisfied.


    Madelyn didn''t want to go crazy with him. She lightly yed with the buttons on his shirt and


    whispered, "If we keep going, tomorrow we''ll be on the entertainment headlines... Let''s continue at


    home, hmm?"


    Benjamin smiled lightly and released her.


    Their rtionship progressed, and his mood naturally improved. During social gatherings, he would


    asionally nce at Madelyn with eager eyes, making the women present weak in the knees...


    Madelyn was slightly affected too!


    Just as they were getting carried away, Paisley suddenly came over and whispered a few words.


    Benjamin frowned.


    Immediately, he handed his wine ss to Paisley and said softly, "I''ll go check!"


    After saying that, he left.


    Madelyn was engaged in conversation with someone when she casually saw him leaving. She walked


    over to Paisley and asked, "Where did he go?"


    Paisley hesitated for a moment and didn''t conceal the truth. "It''s Ms. Bet! She threatened to jump


    off Everest Hotel if Mr. rk doesn''t show up. On a day like today, if something really happens, it will


    bring a lot of trouble to Everest Group."


    Madelyn nodded gently.


    She understood. After all, Benjamin had a past with Eleanor. If something happened, the journalists


    would definitely have a field day.


    She wasn''tpletely indifferent, but she chose to trust Benjamin and their new beginning.


    He told her it would only be her from now on, and she believed him.


    So Madelyn didn''t n on going over; it was not just about trust, but also her confidence in herself.


    Madelyn had this confidence that she could firmly attract Benjamin''s attention to herself.


    Madelyn was about to continue socializing when her secretary approached her and said, "Ms. Green,


    you have a phone call!"


    ...


    Benjamin was in an office on the top floor, meeting with Eleanor.


    There were two staff members present as well.


    For tonight, Eleanor intentionally wore a fiery red dress, but unfortunately, her personal life was not


    decent, and she looked a bit haggard. Wearing red only highlighted her ws.


    Benjamin sat behind the desk. Although he was over 30, he still had a striking and charming


    appearance.


    Eleanor gazed at him.


    She remembered the public rtions photo where he had his wife and daughter by his side, with a


    satisfied smile on his face.


    He even kissed Madelyn in front of everyone!


    Tears welled up in Eleanor''s eyes, smudging her eyeliner as she cried, "Ben, I don''t believe that you''ve


    forgotten the unforgettable time we had together. And I refuse to believe that you''ve fallen in love with


    Madelyn!"


    Benjamin lit a cigarette.


    The cigarette between his slender fingers was motionless, already forming a beautiful picture.


    Without expression, he looked at Eleanor and said, "If it weren''t for your hysterics, threatening to jump


    off Everest Hotel, I wouldn''t have seen you! Eleanor... I don''t want to talk about who was right or wrong


    in the past anymore. I just want to say, let''s stop entangling ourselves in a messy rtionship!"


    Eleanor trembled, her lips quivering. "If I jump off from here, don''t you care?"


    She looked crazed. "You won''t! You love me!"


    Benjamin''s voice was cold as ice, he said, "Eleanor, I have done everything I can for you! If... you insist


    on jumping off from here, the security personnel here will take your body to a dark alley within a minute


    for your family to identify. As for the blood on the ground, it will be cleaned up quickly!"


    As he said these words, his tone was calm.


    In his eyes, there was not a trace of nostalgia for the past!


    Benjamin raised his hand and took a gentle puff of his cigarette.


    At this moment, he was clear that he liked girls like Madelyn, who would never hurt themselves or


    others for the sake of emotions or men.


    Although sometimes he was so angry that he couldn''t help but chase after her.


    By the time he was in his thirties, he was certain that Madelyn was the woman he would spend his life


    with.


    Eleanor smiled.


    Her voice softened, "Ben, everything about you still attracts me like this! What should we do? I don''t


    want to give you away to someone else! Madelyn will be here soon, she will see us meeting again, do


    you think it will trigger her stress response? Will she still lie quietly in your arms and let you kiss her?"


    Benjamin sat unmoving, his expression slightly tense.


    At that moment, the office door was pushed open, and Madelyn stood at the doorway.


    Eleanor smiled even more happily, "Madelyn, we meet again!"


    Madelyn walked in slowly.


    She walked up to Eleanor and said casually, "Yes, we meet again! Ms. Bet called me, what does


    she want to tell me?"


    Eleanor was visibly startled.


    Then she slightly raised her chin and said, "I just wanted to tell you, Ben will never ignore me! When


    we meet, I don''t believe you don''t feel anything in your heart!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled faintly, "If it''s mine, he will think of me no matter where he is! If


    it''s not mine, he wille find you even in Monatiz!"


    Eleanor froze.


    She didn''t expect that Madelyn wouldn''t care.


    Madelyn looked at Benjamin and spoke softly, "Eleanor, you always think you two are soulmates! But


    the experiences Benjamin and I have gone through have long reced your past! He may not always


    be mine, but... he no longer belongs to you!"


    Eleanor''s face turned pale.


    She lost, she lostpletely... no one cared about her existence.


    Benjamin had the staff escort her away. When the office quieted down, he slowly walked out from


    behind the desk and approached Madelyn.


    He gently embraced her, his voice trembling, "Mrs. rk, thank you!"


    Madelyn leaned against his shoulder.


    This embrace was filled with warmth, and neither of them wanted anything more...


    After a while, she whispered softly, "Even if I don''t believe in your feelings for me, I believe in your love


    for Everest. That''s something Eleanor can neverpare to..."


    Her face pressed against his neck, warm and tender.


    Benjamin had always been perfect and charming, attracting women.


    But Madelyn never told him that she actually preferred the identity of Everest''s father... She whispered


    in his ear, "We haven''t registered yet, Benjamin, do you feel like having an affair?"


    Benjamin was aroused, his whole body burning with desire.


    He never knew that Madelyn could tease him like this.


    His instinct as a man made him respond quickly, pressing her body against his own, his voice hoarse


    and unsteady, "Then let''s not go home. let''s do it in the hotel?"


    Madelyn''s body went weak, "I want to go home. I want to do it on your bed."


    Benjamin gently nibbled on her earlobe, unable to control himself, and asked in a yful voice, "Where


    did you learn all this... hmm? Besides me, which man could teach you these things?"


    He couldn''t resist anymore, he lifted her onto the spacious office desk.


    Leaning close, he kissed her.


    Benjamin was overwhelmed with desire, and Madelyn was cooperating perfectly. The atmosphere was


    just right... After kissing for a long time, he rested his head on her shoulder and whispered, "I really


    want to make you cry right here."


    Madelyn blushed and her heart raced.


    They indulged in each other''spany for a long time. When she helped him straighten his shirt and


    fastened the buttons, her slender fingers paused there, motionless.


    Benjamin focused on looking at her, for a long time, then gently held her fingertips, his voice hoarse


    and unsteady, "Madelyn, you''re finally back!"


    Benjamin and Madelyn hardly participated in the second half of the banquet. They hid in his office,


    talking and expressing their love for each other.


    After the party ended, he didn''t even let the driver take them home.


    They had been separated for too long, and even the time spent in the car was precious to him. He


    wanted to have a heart-to-heart conversation with her.


    Little Everest sat obediently in the child seat.


    Probably tired, he fell asleep shortly after.


    Benjamin parked the car at an intersection. He turned to look at Madelyn in the back seat and


    whispered, "Come up here."


    Madelyn hesitated.


    She was wearing an evening gown!


    Benjamin''s gaze was intense, almost melting a woman. Seeing her hesitation, he said, "Give me your


    hand!"


    Madelyn reached out her hand, and he held it gently. She then sat next to him.


    Benjamin fastened her seatbelt, and his slender fingers brushed against her. Madelyn trembled slightly,


    and he looked at her and smiled, saying, "Feeling something?"


    Madelyn turned her face away, wanting to deny it but also not wanting to deny it.


    The night grew deeper.


    The luxurious ck limousine slowly entered the vi and finally stopped in the parking lot. Benjamin


    unbuckled his seatbelt, leaned over and whispered, "I''ll put Everest to sleep. You wait for me in the


    master bedroom, okay?"


    Madelyn''s body felt weak.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Benjamin leaned closer, kissed her deeply and lightly for a while, and then gently caressed her tender


    face with his fingers. "You go upstairs first!"


    ...


    Madelyn went upstairs and pushed open the door to the master bedroom.


    As soon as she opened the door, she was surprised.


    The entire room was filled with red roses, and there were many gift boxes that appeared to be for her.


    Women all loved to be pampered, and Madelyn was no exception.


    She took off her high heels, sat on the white wool carpet, and began to unwrap those gifts.


    Most of them were jewelry.


    There were also luxury brand dresses for the current season.


    And even high-heeled shoes, all of which were delicate and emphasized the beauty of the calves.


    Having been with him for a long time, she naturally knew his hidden intentions, and her face blushed


    involuntarily.


    The bedroom door creaked open.


    Benjamin appeared at the door, still wearing an elegant ck evening suit. The contours of his face


    looked even more attractive under the light...


    He gently closed the door and walked over, embracing her slender waist from behind. "Do you like it?"


    Of course, Madelyn liked it.


    She turned gently, took the initiative to hug his neck, and kissed him passionately. In the midst of their


    passionate kisses, she whispered, "I like it! But I love you even more!"


    He chuckled softly, leaning close to her ear and said heatedly, "Madelyn, we haven''t do it for three


    years!"

    Chapter 254 A New Beginning


    Chapter 254 A New Beginning


    In the master bedroom, a single bedsidemp cast a soft and romantic glow.


    Passion hung heavy in the air.


    Their lips collided in a fierce and longing kiss, their bodies entwined on the edge of the bed.


    Three long years had passed since theirst encounter.


    Benjamin whispered sweet reassurances into Madelyn''s ear, his touch gentle and tender. But as desire


    threatened to consume them, he found himself unable to resist its undeniable pull.


    Suddenly, Everest swung open the door and demanded their attention.


    Clutching a pillow, she stumbled into the room, her eyes still heavy with sleep.


    Time stood still as Benjamin struggled to catch his breath, his gaze locked onto Madelyn''s.


    Fear and guilt flickered in their eyes as they registered the intrusion.


    With a trembling voice, Madelyn almost pleaded, "Ben,fort her!"


    Benjamin''s gaze deepened.


    He reluctantly left the bed, quickly wrapping himself in a bathrobe, and scooped their daughter into his


    arms.


    Everest nestled against her dad, still half-asleep and slightly frightened. Her tiny hands held onto


    Benjamin''s neck tightly, seeking sce and security.


    As Benjamin reassured his daughter, he advised Madelyn to take a shower.


    Madelyn''s cheeks flushed with a mix of embarrassment and affection. She slipped off Benjamin''s shirt


    and vanished into the bathroom.


    Alone in the dimly lit master bedroom, Everest hummed softly, still cradled in her dad''s warm embrace.


    Benjamin reached for a fairytale book on the bedside table and began reading to her.


    His voice, rough yet tender, soothed the restlessness.


    Emerging from the bathroom, Madelyn caught sight of the heartwarming scene. Her heart melted as


    she realized that reconciling with Benjamin was for the sake of their precious daughter, Everest.


    Over these years, Benjamin had consistently shown his love and devotion to their family.


    Madelyn settled on the edge of the bed, gently caressing Everest''s head with her fingers.


    Her voice carried a softness as she inquired, "Does she often wake up at night?"


    Benjamin chuckled meaningfully.


    Madelyn blushed and said, "Ben, you know that''s not what I mean!"


    But Benjamin continued to gaze at her.


    She had just showered, and a hint of pink lingered on her skin from their prior encounter. She exuded a


    subtle desire, and in that moment, he longed to continue...


    Madelyn sensed his thoughts and whispered, "Next time, okay?"


    Benjamin smiled and said, "Come here, let me kiss you."


    Madelyn leaned over, obedientlyplying with his request.


    They shared a gentle and desireless kiss.


    Benjamin embraced her, pulled the nket over them, and turned off the lights.


    Madelyn leaned against his embrace, remaining silent.


    Benjamin finally said, "It won''t be happened as she grows older."


    Madelyn murmured softly in agreement, but retorted, "That''s not what I meant."


    In the darkness, Benjamin caressed her lips and with a hoarse voice confessed, "Madelyn, I was


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    unsatisfied. I understand you aren''t satisfied either."


    Both young and passionate, neither of them would be content with an interrupted moment. But this


    unsatisfied feeling, brought about by their child, carried a bittersweet happiness.


    Madelyn blushed, unable to resist his words.


    Though his demeanor appeared serious, deep within him, a fire of hidden desires burned fiercely.


    Benjamin let out a soft chuckle, the sound both mischievous and captivating.


    Leaning in close to her ear, he whispered, "Tell me, my dear Madelyn, don''t you enjoy this?"


    Madelyn remained silent, her lips sealed, as she pressed herself against his chest, surrendering to the


    reassuring rhythm of his heart.


    Slowly, she drifted into a peaceful slumber.


    ...


    In the early morning, she slowly opened her eyes.


    Benjamin''s handsome face was right in front of her, close at hand.


    "Awake?" he gently brushed her soft cheek, coaxing softly, "Everest will still be asleep for another half


    an hour. Shall we go to the bathroom?"


    Madelyn couldn''t deny her desires anymore, so she hesitated.


    After one round, Benjamin still wanted more.


    He held her slender waist and murmured, "After we drop Everest off at school, let''s go to mypany."


    Madelyn shook her head gently and said, "I would like to visit my mom."


    Cam had already been discharged from the hospital and was still living in their previous apartment


    because it held memories of Samuel.


    Benjamin suggested, "So we can pick up Everest and have dinner together."


    Madelyn agreed.


    She leaned on his shoulder and whispered, warning him not to get too carried away.


    Benjamin also knew he had gone too far, so he tenderly helped her bathe and change clothes.


    When little Everest woke up, he was the one who took care of her.


    The little girl happily put on a small floral dress and brushed her curls with ab. She curiously


    asked, "Why is Mom still sleeping?"


    Benjamin finished tying his tie and then picked up little Everest and walked downstairs, saying,


    "Because mom is tired."


    Little Everest hugged her dad''s neck.


    Her pair of ck and bright eyes stared at Benjamin, questioning, "But why isn''t Dad tired?"


    Benjamin pinched the little girl''s cheek. "You''ll understand when you grow up!"


    He wanted to educate his child, maybe avoiding certain topics, but he would never make up things.


    Little Everest seemed confused. And she decided to ask Edwardter.


    Benjamin went downstairs with Everest, and the servant nced upstairs, smiling and asking, "Has


    Mrs. rk not woken up yet?"


    Benjamin ced Everest on a chair and exined, "She is unwell. After I drop off Everest, I''ll take her


    to the hospital."


    The experienced servant nodded in understanding.


    Benjamin took a sip of his coffee.


    It didn''t have sugar, but he felt a trace of sweetness...


    Little Everest was also very happy.


    In the morning, she was lying in her dad''s arms, and so did mom.


    She couldn''t help but ask a question, "Did dad really like mom?"


    Benjamin busted out augh and agreed.


    Everest was satisfied.


    Whenever she was happy, she would bury her head and dig into her food.


    After eating for a while, she looked up and questioned eagerly, "Great-uncle Keh used to have


    brown hair and his skin was also fair... Dad, do you also like him?"


    Lost in her own thoughts, Everest mumbled to herself, "But Auntie likes him! Dad, does your family


    prefer people with brown hair?"


    Benjamin remained silent, but inside, he was pleased with his daughter''s perceptiveness and wit.


    ...


    After breakfast, he sent Everest to school and then came back to pick up Madelyn.


    Madelyn was tired, but she still got up.


    She felt that she had been too indulgentst night. Perhaps even the servants heard the noise upstairs.


    While she washed up and changed clothes, Benjamin stayed downstairs, handling some business on


    his phone.


    The Everest Group was expanding rapidly, and he was usually too busy.


    He didn''t have much time to spend with Madelyn, especially since Everest was at home in the


    evenings. So, he hoped that during the day, he could apany her.


    Even if they didn''t get tired of each other, just being able to see each other during work was satisfying


    enough.


    While resting in his CEO''s office, Madelyn had slept for a while.


    In the afternoon, she was going through some medical records of Everest.


    She turned to a page and looked up, asking Benjamin, "Everest has received blood transfusions twice


    in the past year?"


    She took the medical records and walked over to show him.


    Benjamin looked at the page for a long time and whispered, "Everest has a blood clotting disorder, and


    it''s also a rare type called Rh-negative blood type. But besides the blood bank''s supply of blood, I know


    four people in this city who have the blood. Madelyn... don''t worry too much."


    Madelyn actually felt distressed, but with Benjamin taking care of Everest, she felt at ease.


    She entered the numbers of those people into her phone one by one.


    Benjamin silently watched her, and Madelyn smiled and asked, "What''s the matter?"


    His voice suddenly became hoarse, "You slept with me so many timesst night, when will you be


    willing to be my wife?"

    Chapter 255 Her Craze Revenge


    Chapter 255 Her Craze Revenge


    Madelyn had long known how cheeky Benjamin was.Blushing, she retorted, "You''re such a jerk!"


    Without missing a beat, Benjamin pulled her onto hisp and chuckled softly, "But it''s true, isn''t it? Who


    was it this morning in the bathroom, clinging onto me?"


    She pushed him away, intending to go back to the sofa and organize her documents.


    Suddenly, Benjamin''s phone rang.


    It was a call from Alexander.


    The message was brief: "William has passed away!"


    Alexander suggested Madelyn to be informed of it, since after all, William was Madelyn''s biological


    father.Benjamin knew this too, and pulled Madelyn into his embrace after hanging up.


    Resting his chin on her forehead, Benjamin softly said, "William is gone."


    Madelyn flinched visibly.


    She didn''t say anything, leaning gently against Benjamin''s shoulder, enveloped in a calm silence.


    Benjamin knew the pain that Madelyn was feeling.


    He asked her in a low voice, "If you want to go, I''ll apany you."


    After a long while, Madelyn shook her head. "There''s no need."


    It wasn''t that Madelyn was heartless, but going back meant facing the Bet family and, moreover,


    what position would she have?


    The next day, William wasid to rest and Madelyn visited Madeline''s grave.


    She gazed at her mother''s youthful and radiant face, delicately cing a bouquet of artichokes on the


    grave.


    Softly, she whispered, "Mom, he is gone."


    Benjamin stood beside her, wrapping his arm around her shoulder, offering silent sce.


    Madelyn leaned against his side, her voice barely audible as she uttered, "Four years ago, on the day


    my dad was buried, William vomited blood here, and seemed destined for such a miserable end!


    Benjamin, he failed my mom and I think he had a hard time over the years, or he wouldn''t have had


    that kind of disease."


    Benjamin nodded, hoping that Madelyn could find the strength to let go and regain happiness.


    ...


    Around noon, they left.


    Benjamin said, "Dad wants us to have lunch at home. Eloise has already taken Everest there."


    A gentle warmth enveloped Madelyn''s heart. "Everest really adores Eloise."


    Thoughts of Eloise reminded Madelyn of Keh, evoking a sigh from her lips.


    Benjamin grinned, "Let them handle their own affairs."


    He shamelessly and meaningfully held her hand.


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    Madelyn averted her gaze, a blush staining her cheeks...


    Half an hourter, they arrived at the rks'' mansion.


    Alexander sat leisurely, savoring his coffee as he spotted Benjamin and Madelyn returning.


    After William''s passing, Madame Bet, shedding tears and causing a scene, even threatened self-


    harm. She insisted that Madelyn take the responsibility to farewell William.


    And Alexander stopped her.


    Aware of Madelyn''s fragile state, he offered her a gentle smile.


    "Take care of yourself, Madelyn," he suggested.


    Then he inquired, "So, when will the two of you get married?"


    They exchanged a nce.


    And Benjamin replied, "Dad, Madelyn and I have just reconciled. It''s too early to discuss marriage."


    Alexander sneered, "A few more years? Do you think you''re still young?"


    Benjamin sheepishly rubbed his neck.


    It was Madelyn who gave him a satisfied answer. "We will wait until Everest grows a bit older."


    Alexander nodded approvingly. "Well, that''s great! Ben, you really need to learn from Madelyn."


    Madelyn''s spirits lifted a little.


    During the drive back home, Benjamin tenderly sped Madelyn''s hand and asked, "So when will you


    marry me, sweetheart?"


    Little Everest sat quietly in the backseat, pricking up her ear.


    ncing at her through the rearview mirror, Madelyn smiled warmly. "Perhaps next autumn."


    As the traffic light turned red, Benjamin brought the car to a halt.


    He yed a joke, "Well, Ms. Green will grow older next year. If you keep dragging it on, I''m afraid no


    one will marry you."


    Madelyn didn''t take the bait and yed a knowing smile.


    At night, after tucking little Everest into bed, Benjamin held onto Madelyn.


    As theyy in each other''s arms, catching their breath, Benjamin whispered, "I have to go to Gartown


    tomorrow, probably for ten days! If it weren''t for Everest needing to go to school, I would like to bring


    you along."


    Madelyn was tempted, but she didn''t want to appear clingy, so she kept her thoughts to herself.


    Perhaps because they would be apart for quite some time and Benjamin had a strong desire, they did it


    and Benjamin didn''t let go of her until she begged him with a hoarse voice.


    Exhausted, Madelyn fell asleep in hisforting embrace.


    ...


    When she woke up early the next morning, a white rose sat by her pillow.


    He had already left.


    After a brief moment of contemtion, Madelyn got up to take care of Everest.


    Everest, being the dutiful child she was, got herself ready for school, meticulously brushing her curly


    hair.


    Madelyn apanied her on the way, where she met the boy Everest had been talking about -


    Edward.


    Edward was exceptionally handsome.


    Madelyn yfully winked at Everest, causing her to blush before walking into kindergarten.


    As Madelyn got into her car, she sent a WhatsApp message to Benjamin, saying, "I met Edward."


    Busy with work, Benjamin didn''t reply until around noon. "Is he more handsome than me?"The reply


    amused Madelyn.


    Then Madelyn decided to head to the music center to settle ounts with Nics.


    In the afternoon, she met up with Vivian for coffee.


    Vivian arrivedte, eximing, "There was a murder in the north district! The entire area is under heavy


    traffic control. My car was stuck there for half a day. It''s truly tragic - the person was stabbed seven


    times!"


    Madelyn inquired, "Have they caught the killer?"


    Vivian responded, "Not yet! I think it might be a crime of passion!"


    A crime of passion?


    Stirring her coffee, Madelyn tried to push away the unease in her heart.


    Vivian continued to talk, but Madelyn found it hard to concentrate.


    That night, lying in bed, fear gripped Madelyn, and she couldn''t resist calling Benjamin.


    They spoke for half an hour until exhaustion finally overcame her, and she drifted off to sleep.


    The next morning, she had to hide the signs of a restless night.


    After dropping off Everest at school, Madelyn stepped into her car.


    At that moment, her phone buzzed.


    It was Vivian calling.


    Madelyn picked up and answered with a smile, "We just saw each other yesterday. Wants to buy me


    coffee again?"


    Vivian''s voice held tension, "I just wanted to tell you...after the incident in the north district yesterday,


    there have been three more casesst night, and it''s believed to be the work of the same person!"


    A shiver ran down Madelyn''s spine.


    Four victims?


    Vivian sighed on the other end, "And all four victims had Rh-negative blood type. Isn''t that strange?"


    Fear engulfed Madelyn.


    Rh-negative blood type?


    All the people in Gredax with Rh-negative blood type had been killed, and thest target...was Everest!


    ...


    Just then, chaos erupted at the entrance of the kindergarten.


    Among the crowd stood a frail figure, dressed in a crimson gown - it was Eleanor!


    She gripped a gleaming knife, its tip tracing a wicked path across Everest''s tender leg, drawing forth a


    crimson stream.


    Time seemed to stand still as Madelyn''s heart threatened to cease its beating.


    Eleanor''s lips curled into a sinister smile.


    She taunted, "Rh-negative blood type, clotting disorders...just one wound is enough to kill your


    precious daughter!"


    And in her distorted mind, Eleanor believed that her mental illness would shield her from any legal


    repercussions.


    "Madelyn, what I can''t possess, you''ll never have either!" she eximed.


    Although the kindergarten teachers swiftly administered a clotting agent to Everest, but the wound


    proved too deep.


    The bleeding persisted, unabated.


    They needed someone with Rh-negative blood type!


    But Eleanor had taken the lives of all the potential donors in the city.


    Madelyn was desperate and frightened.


    In a moment of fleeting rity amidst the chaos, Madelyn knew what she needed to do.


    Rh-negative blood type ¨C Eleanor was the sole person who could swiftly provide the blood!


    Madelyn had to intercept Eleanor, had to extract her blood to save her child.


    Without hesitation, Madelyn dashed towards the driver''s seat of the car.


    Years ago, an injury had rendered her unable to drive. The doctor had warned her against driving cars,


    but now, for the sake of Everest, Madelyn was willing to take a risk.


    She locked her gaze on Eleanor and pressed her foot to the elerator.


    The ck minivan surged forward, hurtling towards Eleanor.


    With a thunderous crash, Eleanor tumbled to the ground...

    Trembling uncontrobly, Madelyn stepped out of the car.


    She knew she had to get Eleanor to the hospital, but how could she possibly exin this to others?


    Would she be able to escape any consequences?


    Just as she wrestled with these thoughts, a warm hand tightly enveloped hers. "Madelyn, don''t be


    afraid," a familiar voice spoke.


    Madelyn''s frozen body quickly turned towards the source of the voice. It was Benjamin!


    The sight of him drained her of all remaining strength, leaving her trembling as she called out his name,


    "Ben!"


    Gently squeezing her hand, Benjamin''s voice was hoarse as he reassured her, "Leave it to me."


    With determined strides, he made his way to Everest''s side, taking out a hemostatic agent from his


    pocket and feeding her a pill.


    Little Everest''s delicate legs were smeared with blood, prompting an ache in Benjamin''s heart.


    He picked her up, and the young one clung to him, tears streaming down her face. "Daddy... Everest


    hurts."


    Pressing a kiss to her forehead, Benjamin''s voice was filled with raw emotion.


    "Daddy will take you to the hospital."


    Time was of the essence, so he handed Everest over to Madelyn. "Get in the car."


    While securing Eleanor into another vehicle, Benjamin simultaneously made a phone call.


    "Charles, it''s me, Ben! There''s been a serious incident at the entrance of Story Time Kindergarten. My


    wife managed to subdue the assant, but there was a possibility of a life-threatening condition. We''re


    taking her to the hospital temporarily... Yes, everything will be fine." After exchanging a few more


    words, he ended the call.


    Eleanor''s trembling lips uttered desperate words, "No! You wouldn''t do this to me, Ben!"


    Benjamin''s lips curled into a thin smile, as he firmly replied, "I would!"


    Without any further hesitation, he thrust Eleanor into another car.


    The two ck cars swiftly drove away, one leading the other.


    Ten minutester, they arrived at a prestigious private hospital.


    Madelyn clung tightly to Everest, offering constantfort to the terrified child.


    Benjamin guided them to a secluded area where Eleanor remained hidden from their view.


    He then approached Everest, gently ruffling her hair and assuring her, "Don''t be afraid, Daddy''s here."


    Everest clung to Madelyn, her tear-streaked face reflecting the fear etched in her young eyes.


    With a calm and gentle voice, Benjamin turned to Madelyn and instructed, "Take her to the emergency


    room. I''ll be there soon."

    And with that, he turned away and made his way toward his next course of action.


    Madelyn''s heart grew uneasy, and she couldn''t help but call out, "Ben!"


    Benjamin paused, his gaze turning back to meet hers.


    With a reassuring smile, he said, "Don''t be afraid! Nothing will happen."


    Madelyn held onto Everest tightly, her gaze fixed on Benjamin, her trust in him unwavering.


    She believed in him.


    The driver led the way, with Madelyn cradling Everest in her arms as they hurried into the emergency


    room. The doctors had been waiting, prepared for their arrival.


    After approximately 20 minutes, a nurse rushed in, clutching a bag of blood in her hand.


    "Transfuse immediately, the child has clotting disorders!" she eximed.


    Little Everesty quietly on the small, sterile bed, his face drained of color.


    The 100ml bag of blood was quickly depleted, but new bags arrived without dy.


    Madelyn''s heart trembled with a mix of gratitude and worry, for she knew whose blood was sustaining


    her child.


    In total, they transfused 800ml of blood, as little Everest cried until exhaustion overtook him, causing


    him to drift into a troubled sleep.


    Tears stained his delicateshes, rendering him pitifully vulnerable.


    Madelyn clung to his small hand, her body trembling with fear.


    A soft handnded gently on her shoulder, and when she turned, she beheld Benjamin.


    Fatigue clung to his features.


    He settled beside Madelyn, drawing her into a tender embrace.


    She didn''t even need to voice her questions before he spoke, his voice filled with reassurance.


    "You called mest night, and I had a dream... a dream that Everest was in danger. Worried, I took the


    earliest flight back."


    Pressing his forehead against hers, Benjamin murmured, "Madelyn, you did well."


    She longed to say something, but he cut her off, determined.


    "Leave it to me! Just know that Everest will be fine."


    Madelyn refrained from further inquiries.


    She leaned against his shoulder, still trembling with fear, and gently clutched his waist to anchor her


    frayed emotions.


    They held each other tightly, finding sce in the embrace.


    Eventually, Benjamin asked her to stay by Everest''s side while he stepped out to smoke, needing a


    moment to collect himself.


    As he finished his cigarette, his phone chimed in his pocket.


    It was Charles, his tone grave.


    "Ben, we have almost confirmed Eleanor as the deranged killer. She has taken four lives."


    He paused, his voice low, "Is the killer alive?"


    Benjamin''s response came with a resolute quality, "Yes, she is still in the hospital. And my wife... Let''s


    try to shield her from getting further involved, even though she acted bravely."


    ...


    After concluding the call, Benjamin strode into a separate, sterile cold storage room.


    Inside, the room was meticulously arranged with ten bags of fresh sma.


    He reached out, fingers hovering over a bag, lost in contemtion.


    Paisley entered the room and spoke in hushed tones, "Mr. rk, I have located three pandas with Rh-


    negative blood type in Famore and Zhanta."


    Benjamin returned the blood bag to its ce and turned to face her, his voice calm. "Arrange for them


    toe to Everest Group for employment."


    Paisley nodded but hesitated for a moment.


    "Actually, there is also a person in Gredaxy, but he is younger."


    Benjamin''s brows furrowed in curiosity.


    Paisley handed him a file with a soft sigh.


    "It''s quite a coincidence. This child is also from Everest''s kindergarten ss. His name is Edward, Mr.


    rk, and here is hisplete information."


    Edward?


    Benjamin opened the file, eyes scanning through the details.


    The family''spany on the brink of copse, their eldest son''s demise, and the hardships faced by


    Edward, an illegitimate child.


    Paisley, being a mother herself, couldn''t help butment, "This child has endured so much in his life."


    Benjamin silently perused the information for a prolonged moment.


    The child''s striking appearance and intelligent eyes caught his attention.


    He closed the file gently.


    "Arrange a meeting with Benson from the Karter Group. Inform him... I have a project to discuss with


    him."


    Understanding his intentions, Paisley nodded.


    With his taskspleted, Benjamin made his way back to the ward where Alexander, Eloise, and their


    spouses were anxiously waiting.


    Alexander''s worry was palpable as he cradled Everest in his arms, tenderlyforting her.


    Benjamin couldn''t bear watching. "Dad, Everest has lost a lot of blood. If you keep shaking her like that,


    she''ll feel unease."


    Alexander immediately turned to his adorable granddaughter, concern etched on his face. "Is Grandpa


    making you dizzy?"


    Little Everest basked in the affection and attention, even in her fainting state.


    She clung to Alexander, yearning for hisforting kisses.


    As tears welled in his old eyes, Alexander''s face sagged with worry.


    His little Everest, who had fought for survival since birth and was raised with great difficulty by Ben,


    was now harmed by a deranged woman.


    Alexanderposed himself and finally spoke up. "Ben, take a look!"


    Ben nodded, his arm wrapping around Madelyn''s shoulder as he gently reassured her.


    In the afternoon, Ben made his way to the police station.


    He didn''t return to the hospital untilte at night.


    As he pushed open the door to the ward, the soft lighting cast a serene ambience, with Madelyn


    soundly asleep.


    Everest stirred at the sound of footsteps, awakening and calling out like a little cat, "Daddy."


    Ben shrugged off his coat and used it to cover Madelyn before settling by the bedside.


    He lifted Everest onto hisp, covering her with a nket.


    This little one, whom he had raised, held a special ce in his heart. She nestled in his arms like a


    small cat.


    Ben''s gentle strokes traced the soft curls of Everest''s tea-colored hair, carefully avoiding her bandaged


    legs.


    He asked softly, "Do they still hurt?"


    "It hurts!" Everest pressed against his neck, pouting in a yful manner.


    Ben embraced her, giving her a tender kiss.


    He remained silent, sadness filling his heart.


    Eleanor was his ex-girlfriend, he feels deeply sorry for Everest!


    Everest seemed to feel his emotions and leaned her little face forward to kiss her daddy.


    Ben was willing to give up everything for her well-being in this lifetime.


    He spoke in a low voice, "Tomorrow, the teacher will bring a few children to visit you."


    Everest, who was usually spirited, suddenly feels embarrassed.


    Ben''s tone was casual, "I heard Edward is alsoing!"


    Everest felt exposed, her fur standing on end.


    She squirmed down with bravery and determination, curling up under the covers and yawning, "Dad, I


    want to sleep!"


    Ben, separated by the nket, tuged at her curly hair.


    He told her a story, "Once upon a time, there was a prince named Edward..."


    Everest emitted a snoring sound, "Daddy, I''m falling asleep!"


    Ben nonchntly acknowledged and gently pats her back, just like countless nights before, soothing


    his Everest to sleep...


    To him, Everest is more than just a child.


    She represents his and Madelyn''s... hope for love!

    Chapter 257 Their Reunion


    Chapter 257 Their Reunion


    Two dayster, the children came to visit Everest in the hospital.


    It was Madelyn who treated them.


    Benjamin was also present, sitting on the sofa in the VIP ward, handling documents with ease.


    Little Everest felt happy and proud, seeing her handsome dad and beautiful mom.


    Before leaving, they gave Everest some gifts.


    Edward gave her a lollipop, and she nned to share it with her dad.


    After Everest''s friends left, she fell asleep, and the ward became quiet.


    Madelyn asked, "Benjamin, you arranged for Everest''s friends to visit her, didn''t you?"


    He pulled her to sit down, saying, "Please call me Ben, sweetheart."


    After a moment of hesitation, he whispered, "Yes, I arranged it! Didn''t you see how happy Everest was?


    They are her friends!"


    Madelyn couldn''t argue with his reasoning.


    Benjamin smiled faintly, not mentioning that he had already met Edward''s father.


    In the future, Edward would always be in the same school and ss as Everest because he had Rh-


    negative blood!


    Then Benjamin told her, "Last night, I had dinner with the prosecutingwyer. He said that Eleanor


    death penalty."


    Madelyn didn''t reply.


    Eleanor deserved it!


    Benjamin had been busy for days, and Madelyn had given him a gentle massage.


    He grabbed her delicate wrist and said softly, "It''s been so long, and I finally get to enjoy a little


    tenderness from you!"


    Madelyn smiled lightly.


    Her smile was serene and beautiful.


    After days of tension, Benjamin finally rxed.


    At that moment, he couldn''t resist the temptation.


    He lowered his head and kissed her, capturing her lips with deep and gentle passion.


    Madelyn resisted, knowing that they were in a hospital with peopleing and going.


    Her voice was broken as she whispered, "Ben, we might be seen!"


    Benjamin''s blood ran hot.


    After all the stress he had been under, he needed to release his desires.


    Intimacy between a man and a woman was the best way.


    He leaned over and locked the door of the ward, leading Madelyn into a small room.


    They walked and kissed, their actions bing wilder.


    Madelyn fell onto the end of the small bed.


    The bed was too small, and with little Everest sleeping outside, they had to be quiet and discreet.


    Madelyn bit her lip and endured.


    Benjamin pressed against her neck and in a low, hoarse voice, he said, "Call me Ben, Madelyn. I want


    to hear you call me that!"


    Madelyn''s eyes were full of affection.


    She was overwhelmed and bit down on his neck, continuing to whisper his name hoarsely, "Ben...


    Benjamin..."


    When they finished, Madelyn nestled in his arms and whispered, "Just now, you didn''t..."


    Benjamin rested his arm under his head, lowered his head to look at her, and lightly brushed her cheek,


    "If you''re pregnant, it would be perfect to give little Everest a brother or sister!"


    Madelyn remained silent, her fingers gently tracing his body.


    She was about to speak when they heard a knocking sound from outside.


    ...


    Madelyn blushed slightly, and Benjamin kissed her once before getting out of bed to dress, saying, "It


    must be Eloise."


    He moved quickly, showing no signs of fatigue.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but wonder where he got all that energy, considering he wasn''t too young either.


    Benjamin guessed her thoughts and reached out to pinch her chin, saying, "Mrs. rk, you''ve starved


    me for too long!"


    As Benjamin left the room, he considerately closed the door behind him.


    It was indeed Eloise, holding a thermos in her hand.


    "Mom made some nourishing soup!"


    She leaned in and whispered, "Is Everest sleeping?"


    Benjamin let her enter.


    She kissed Everest on the face and stared at Benjamin for a long time.


    The Ryan family''s genes were strong.


    Everest resembled Madelyn but also resembled that person...


    Eloise drifted off into a daze.


    Benjamin leaned against the sofa, showing a somewhatzy expression after their encounter.


    He casually flipped through some documents and lightly hummed, "If you really like him, then marry


    him! He''s so much older than you. When he kicks the bucket, you can take his money and find


    someone young and rich!"


    Eloise felt upset but didn''t speak.


    She knew that Ben was still angry with her.


    Benjamin continued, "You need to learn from Madelyn and make your own decision! Since you dislike


    Keh, why don''t you find another boyfriend?"


    Eloise could only push back softly, saying, "I want to work. I''m busy!"


    Benjamin sneered, "Just those third-rate magazines?"


    Eloise had no words to reply and looked around for Madelyn but failed.


    Benjamin chuckled, "She is resting inside."


    Eloise suddenly became alert and stared at Benjamin.


    He blushed slightly, "She''s just a bit tired!"


    Eloise understood what he meant right away.


    Her face turned slightly red, and she immediately stood up, saying, "Um... Ben, I''m going back now!"


    Benjamin''s tone was calm, "Take a slow drive!"


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Eloise''s eyes welled up with tears as she affirmed his words.


    As she left, Benjamin looked at the closed door in deep thought.


    How could he not see it?


    Eloise was deeply hurt. She had liked Keh and had been loved by him. How could she easily move


    on or like someone else? But without trying, she would be stuck in this state forever. Keh would


    remain a thorn in her heart, and that bothered Benjamin.


    Outside, Eloise held onto the door and lowered her gaze.


    No one had mentioned Keh to her in the past few days, afraid that it would break her heart.


    Only her brother did.


    Ben mentioned that she had a child with Keh.


    They had to meet.


    Now she only had two options: either she loved him or she forgot him!


    She hadn''t achieved either yet.


    She closed her eyes gently, exhaled deeply, and prepared to leave the hospital and return home.


    But when she lifted her eyes, she froze.


    It was Keh!


    He stood before her, dressed in a white shirt, ck trousers, and a navy-blue windbreaker.


    He looked refined and gentle.


    But only she knew how ruthless and crazy this person could be, especially in bed.


    It was as if he hadpletely transformed into a different person.

    Chapter 258 Eloise, You Still Love Me


    Chapter 258 Eloise, You Still Love Me


    Their eyes met, but they didn''t say a word.


    Eloise didn''t expect to run into Keh in the hospital.


    This scene reminded her of the night when they had their first sex. It also took ce in the hospital.


    Keh was drunk back then. He pinned Eloise down on the sofa and took possession of her wildly.


    Evidently, Keh also thought of the past.


    He had been cautious and thought carefully before taking any action.


    However, he didn''t have time to consider the consequences of his rtionship with Eloise. Being


    tempted by a girl that was sixteen years younger than him might be the craziest thing he had done in


    his life.


    It wasn''t because she was young and good-looking.


    Keh had met many beautiful women before, and some of them were more beautiful and charming


    than Eloise. Moreover, they were tactful and considerate.


    They were not like Eloise, who hugged him and called him Uncle Ryan.


    He was addicted to the way she addressed him.


    ...


    After a long time, Keh broke the ice. "Did youe to see Everest?"


    Eloise was dazed for a long time beforeing back to her senses and nodding. "Yes. She''s much


    better now and will leave the hospital tomorrow."


    Keh was about to say something...


    Kaleb came out of the elevator. He was surprised to see Eloise. He was an experienced professional


    and quickly regained hisposure, greeting her with a faint smile, "Hello, Ms. rk."


    Eloise nodded at him and said to Keh, "I gotta go."


    Keh grabbed her hand and stopped her. "Wait a minute!"


    Kaleb took a deep breath and turned his face away.


    Eloise intended to shake Keh off, but Keh''s grip was so forceful that she failed to break away


    from him.


    Keh said in a subdued voice, "Let''s have a talk."


    In the end, they went to a quiet coffee shop. Kaleb got them a private room and guarded the door


    dutifully.


    Eloise sat at the table in the private room.


    Keh dismissed the waiter and made coffee for her.


    He had always been waited on by others, but in private, he liked to make coffee and thus was good at


    it.


    After he made the coffee, he put a cup in front of Eloise.


    "Have a taste."


    Eloise pressed her lips and said, "I don''t like coffee."


    Keh gave an indulgent smile and said gently, "I forgot that you like soda and fried chicken..."


    Eloise looked at him quietly.


    Keh was as refined and elegant as she remembered.


    She used to be crazy about him, but she didn''t want to do that now.


    Eloise said coldly, "Mr. Ryan, did you bring me here only to talk about this?"


    Keh went to the small fridge and took a bottle of soda for her.


    Eloise didn''t take it.


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    He put a straw in the bottle for her and said softly, "Eloise, I have been wondering how you were doing


    during the past two years."


    Eloise''s heart skipped a beat.


    She raised her head slightly and said calmly, "I was fine. I experienced a different life."


    She sounded casual, but Keh knew it wouldn''t be so simple.


    Eloise was spoiled since childhood and didn''t know how to take care of herself.


    When he was about to ask more questions, Eloise chuckled softly and asked, "Mr. Ryan, what else do


    you want to know? Do you want to know how poor I was? Do you want me to regret not telling you I


    was pregnant or not having an abortion?"


    Keh''s handsome face turned pale.


    But he remained smiling. "Don''t talk like a child."


    Eloise lowered her eyes and said, "A child! You always treat me as a child, don''t you? Mr. Ryan, how


    could you have sex with me if you thought I was a child? Did you want to have a change when you


    were tired of your girlfriends?"


    She tried to restrain herself.


    "Look, we''re so different. You like coffee and chess, while I like soda and chicken. I also like to go to


    nightclubs. We are in two different worlds... Mr. Ryan, after you said I was not your cup of tea, I didn''t


    pester you. I took your advice and forgot what happened before."


    "What do you mean by saying those words to me now?"


    ...


    Keh felt a pang in his heart.


    After all, he waspletely different from her. How could he not know from her words that she hated


    him?


    She should hate him.


    They got on well back then and had a sweet and crazy time.


    Any woman, na?ve or sophisticated, thought her man would marry her.


    Keh had thought of it.


    But he let Eloise down.


    Keh reached out to hold her hand, but she moved away.


    Eloise calmed down and said, "I''m sorry for losing control. If you want to see Emerson, ask your


    secretary to contact me. I''ll make the arrangement."


    Keh asked gently, "Can I go to the rks'' mansion?"


    Eloise was startled.


    She wanted to refuse, but she couldn''t because the Ryan family and the rk family were inws.


    Keh didn''t press her anymore.


    When he ran into her, he wanted nothing but to talk to her. He hadn''t chatted with people like this for a


    long time. It was a pure talk without any schemes, a talk between man and woman.


    Eloise hurried away.


    Shen went out of the coffee shop and pulled open the car door to get in. Suddenly, she paused.


    Across from the path, the backseat window of Keh''s car rolled down, and Eloise saw a


    sophisticated and beautiful woman sitting inside.


    Eloise knew this woman.


    It was Amelia, Keh''s subordinate and girlfriend.


    Amelia nodded at Eloise.


    Eloise sneered, thinking, "How could Keh do this? He went on a business trip with his female


    subordinate, and he talked about old times with me with affection."


    What a jerk!


    Keh followed Eloise out of the coffee shop and saw the car window roll down.


    He frowned and went up to Eloise, exining, "I brought her here on business."


    Eloise said calmly, "Mr. Ryan, you don''t owe me an exnation. Moreover, do you dare to say nothing


    has happened between the two of you?"


    Keh fell silent.


    That took ce a long time ago. It was merely a one-night stand.


    Amelia was nothing but his colleague now.


    Eloise didn''t say anything else. She quickly got in her car and fastened her seatbelt, stepping softly on


    the elerator.


    The red sports car shed past Keh.


    The moment when Eloise went past Keh, he saw tears rolling down her face.


    Did Eloise cry?


    Keh pressed his lips and watched her car driving away.


    His subordinate Amelia got out of the car and went up to him, saying understandingly, "Mr. Ryan, is


    there a misunderstanding between you and Ms. rk?"


    Keh''s heart sank.


    He turned around and looked at the beautiful subordinate, instantly wearing an impable expression.


    He smiled calmly and said, "What misunderstanding? The girl came to stand up for her brother."


    He didn''t mention his rtionship with Eloise.


    Amelia smiled lightly.


    Kaleb hurried over. He saw what had happened and wiped his sweat, shouting at the driver, "Why did


    you drive the car here?"


    The driver said awkwardly, "Ms. Baldwin asked me to do so."


    Kaleb looked at Keh and said, "Mr. Ryan, we..."


    Keh said lightly, "You go back to the hotel first. I''ll go see Everest."


    Kaleb knew what was on his mind and turned to Amelia, saying with a smile, "It seems Mr. Ryan is


    going to spend the night at Ms. Green''s home. We can take the chance and rx a bit. Amelia, I''ll take


    you for a few drinks tonight. The nightlife of Gredax is much glitzier than Vadiff."


    ...


    After Kaleb took Amelia away, Keh smoked three or four cigarettes in the parking lot.


    When he saw Eloise cry in the car, he knew she still loved him.


    Keh''s heart was melted by her tears.


    He couldn''t wait to free himself and give her a family. She wouldn''t cry alone secretly in that case.


    But could he do that now?


    He couldn''t!


    Keh crossed the street with a white cigarette between his slender fingers.


    He was handsome and charming, and many women couldn''t help stealing nces at him on the way.


    No one could tell that he was over forty.


    Keh went to the ward and knocked on the door.


    Benjamin opened the door, surprised to see Keh, but he treated thetter politely.


    Benjamin seemed to have forgotten the fierce fight in Vadiff. He spoke to Keh warmly and even


    gave Keh a ss of water. He said, "If you hade half an hour earlier, you would have met


    Eloise."


    Keh held the ss and pondered for a while before saying, "I saw her. We had coffee together."


    Benjamin leaned on the sofa and smiled. "Eloise had coffee with you? Keh, did you give her an


    experience of elderly life? I can''t figure out how you hooked up with her back then. The two of them


    don''t fit each other no matter how I look at it."


    His words annoyed Keh.


    Keh put down the ss and said with a smile, "Emerson is our son. We used to be lovers, and we


    are friends now. In fact, I envy you. If you marry Madelyn again, you will have married her twice. I''m not


    as capable as you."


    Benjamin flipped through the report...


    He nced at Keh, who was drinking water calmly.


    Benjamin said lightly, "Keh, you don''t need to envy me. My family is open-minded and won''t tie you


    down with Emerson, so you can continue your unrestrained life. As for Eloise, my mother has arranged


    a blind date for her, and she agreed."


    A blind date...


    Keh gripped the ss so tight that his knuckles went white.


    Benjamin looked at Keh''s hand and chuckled softly. "Keh, please drink some water."


    Keh forced a smile.


    Thankfully, Everest woke up at this moment and sat up, rubbing her eyes and calling Keh.


    Keh adored her.


    Although he was upset, he went up to the bed and hugged Everest, kissing her. He took a souvenir


    from his pocket and put it on Everest''s neck.


    He especially went to Sona Mountain for the souvenir, which was said to be blessed.


    Benjamin had a sharp eye and could see Keh''s affection for Everest. His tone softened. "Thank


    you very much."


    Keh held Everest in his arms and asked about Eleanor''s trial in a low voice, and Benjamin told him


    everything.


    Keh pondered and said in a subdued voice, "For safety''s sake, I''ll pull strings on this case."


    He kissed Everest.


    He would never allow Madelyn or Everest to be hurt by that crazy woman again.

 Chapter 259 Madelyn, You Went to the Bad

    Chapter 259 Madelyn, You Went to the Bad


    Chapter 259 Madelyn, You Went to the Bad


    Two dayster, Everest left the hospital.


    Alexander held a family banquet. He invited Keh as thetter came to Gredax on business, but he


    didn''t expect Keh toe...


    Keh brought toys to Emerson.


    But Emerson was not drawn to Keh and stayed in Eloise''s arms shyly.


    Keh was disappointed...


    He looked at Eloise with deep eyes and said, "Please mention me to the child more often. He''s not


    familiar with me."


    Brianna smiled lightly and said, "He will like you if you spend more time with him. Emerson is a sweet


    boy."


    Alexander was forgiving and asked Keh to drink with him. Benjamin sat with them.


    Keh was not stupid.


    Alexander was tolerant. He was kind to Keh after Eloise gave birth to Keh''s son. Alexander


    didn''t do that on Madelyn''s ount but for the business opportunities in Vadiff.


    Keh had a say in those projects.


    He wanted to make it up to Eloise, so he said yes to everything he was asked to do. He even allowed


    Alexander and Benjamin to take turns to ply him with wine. Looking back, he hadn''t been drunk for over


    ten years...


    It was not surprising.


    Who dared to ply Keh with wine?


    When he went to banquets, his secretary and assistant drank for him. He didn''t need to drink with the


    people.


    Madelyn walked Keh to the car when he left.


    After his car disappeared from sight, she went back to her car. Benjamin was waiting for her.


    He stood beside the car and smoked quietly, raising his head slightly. He looked elegant and charming.


    Madelyn went up to him and said wryly, "You cooperated well with Dad tonight. Keh drank a lot of


    wine."


    Benjamin nced at her and chuckled softly. "Do you pity him?"


    He pinched her cheek gently and said, "Don''t pity him even though he''s your uncle."


    Madelyn knew that Benjamin got jealous easily. He was envious of any man she cared about.


    Therefore, she didn''t argue with him. She opened the car door and asked him to get in. "Let''s go.


    Everest will have a sleepover here tonight. We''ll pick her up tomorrow night."


    Benjamin put his arms around her slender waist and muttered, "Mom and Dad did that on purpose.


    They wanted us to have some quiet time together. Madelyn, shall we have a baby tonight?"


    Madelyn was speechless.


    How could Benjamin say these words recklessly when the driver was in the car?


    She whispered, "Benjamin, you''re drunk."


    He pushed her into the car. After that, he didn''t restrain himself. He moved his big palm on her leg and


    lifted her ankle, rubbing her heel gently.


    Madelyn''s heart pounded.


    She could only hear their breathing in the dark and smell his masculine aura.


    She thought he was taking advantage of her.


    However, after a good while, he leaned against her shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Were you


    frightened when you drovest time?"


    Her foot was injured. It was very likely that something went wrong when she braked, and the car


    dashed out with her inside. Benjamin was still frightened after so many days.


    Madelyn''s heart softened.


    She turned to Benjamin and kissed his prominent nose. "I didn''t think so much at that time."


    Benjamin put down her foot.


    Hey on herp and gently wrapped her waist with his arms.


    Madelyn had stayed with him for several years, and she had never seen him so vulnerable. She


    couldn''t help but reach out to trace his handsome face, and Benjamin looked up at her.


    At this moment, their love was equal.


    Madelyn had never been so bold. She lost control and kissed Benjamin when the driver was ahead of


    them.


    She kissed Benjamin tenderly.


    Benjamin couldn''t help wrapping her neck and deepening the kiss. They kissed furtively and got


    excited when the driver was in the front.


    It was a long, passionate kiss. Benjamin pressed his lips to hers and whispered, "Madelyn, you went to


    the bad."


    "Do you like it or not?"


    "Yes, of course."


    ...


    The driver drove calmly, his ears turning red.


    Half an hourter, the car drove into the vi.


    Benjamin sat up and said solemnly, "Drive the car into the underground garage."


    The driver nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. rk."


    The ck car drove into the underground garage and pulled over. The driver quickly opened the car


    door and swiftly ran away.


    Madelyn was alone with Benjamin in the car.


    They kissed again. Madelyn sat in Benjamin''s arms and raised her head, revealing her elegant neck.


    He couldn''t help leaning over and kissing it.


    As they kissed wildly, their clothes got disheveled.


    Madelyn hugged Keh and bit her red lips softly. "Let''s go to the bedroom."


    Benjamin gently grabbed her brown hair and leaned to kiss her, saying in a muffled voice, "I can''t wait.


    Let''s do it here first."


    ...


    The next morning, Madelyn woke up.


    Benjamin was not in bed. There was a fresh rose on the slightly dented pillow beside her.


    Madelyn felt rxed.


    She recalled the passionate night and felt sweet. When the child was not around, shey on


    Benjamin''s pillow and reflected onst night with relish.


    Madelyn blushed. She hadn''t expected herself to be so horny.


    When she was immersed in the passionst night, Benjamin pressed her and teased, "Madelyn, you''re


    horny at your age. How did you pull through during the past three years? What did you do when you


    thought of me?"


    When Benjamin made love to Madelyn, he loved to talk dirty.


    Madelyn used to think she would be repelled by such words, but she was turned on when Benjamin


    breathed these words on her neck.


    When she was thinking of the passionate night, her phone rang.


    It was Benjamin. He said tenderly as if he was whispering in her ear, "Madelyn, help me look for a


    document. Paisley wille to get it in a while."


    Madelyn said in a soft voice, "Okay."


    He guessed she was still in bed and said in a gentler voice, "Does it hurt?"


    Madelyn blushed.


    Of course, she didn''t answer. "I''ll look for the document."


    She guessed Benjamin was alone in the office, so he talked dirty to her on purpose. Madelyn couldn''t


    stand it and hung up the phone.


    Following that, she put on a robe and entered his study.


    After she found the document, she turned to leave. Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a file. It had a


    kraft paper cover and looked like an investigation file.


    Madelyn hesitated for a while and opened it.


    When she read the content, she was shocked and slowly sat on the chair.


    It was a file about Edward Karter.


    His blood had an Rh-negative trait.


    At this moment, a maid went upstairs and told Madelyn, "Mrs. rk, Ms. Brooks hase, saying


    she''s here for a document."


    Madelyn was supposed to go downstairs to greet Paisley. When she looked at the bruises and love


    bites on her body, she decided to ask the maid to give the document to Paisley and apologize to her.


    The maid handed Paisley the document downstairs.


    Paisley soon left in the car.


    After she got to Everest Group, she went to the president''s office and handed the document to


    Benjamin. Paisley was puzzled. Benjamin didn''t need the document urgently. Why did he ask her to


    fetch it today?


    Benjamin, dressed in a ck and white suit, sat behind the desk and held the document, asking


    casually, "Did Madelyn say anything?"


    Paisley looked at him. There were two conspicuous scratches on his neck. She could imagine that he


    had a passionate night.


    Paisley cleared her throat softly and said, "She didn''t go downstairs."

    Benjamin realized it and waved his hand quietly, asking Paisley to go out.


    When the door closed, he leaned against the leather chair and swung it quietly, thinking that Madelyn


    should have seen the file.


    How would she react when he got home?

 Chapter 260 Are You Still Angry

    Chapter 260 Are You Still Angry


    Chapter 260 Were You Still Angry


    Benjamin came backte. When he got home, it was around nine o''clock at night.


    Madelyn watched Everest ying piano.


    Everest wore a dress and sat upright, ying a good tune.


    Benjamin took off his coat and tossed it on the sofa casually. He went over and leaned against


    Madelyn, saying quietly, "She''s just been out of the hospital. Why don''t you let her rest for a couple of


    days?"


    He pitied the child, but he couldn¡¯t bring himself to me Madelyn.


    Madelyn gave a faint smile. "She wants to y the piano."


    She smelled alcohol on him and lowered her voice. "Did you drink?"


    Benjamin smiled quietly and stroked her back gently, saying hoarsely, "Make me some food. I didn''t eat


    anything tonight. I only drank wine."


    Madelyn gave him a reproachful look.


    She rose to make him a te of spaghetti.


    Benjamin put his arms around her waist when she was two steps away. He lowered his head and


    rubbed against her nose with his. "I was with some girls, but I didn''t allow them to get near me.


    Madelyn, I won''t do anything that upsets you."


    Madelyn blushed.


    She bit her red lips and said, "I didn''t ask you."


    Benjamin looked at her with deep eyes and said, "But I wanted to tell you."


    Madelyn couldn''t resist his bright eyes, which were typical of men who wanted to make love with


    women. She nced at Everest and warned him to restrain himself.


    Benjamin let her go.


    He sat beside Everest and touched her curls. "Everest, why do you suddenly work so hard?"


    Everest paused.


    She crawled onto Benjamin''sp and kissed him. "Bonnie yed the piano at the kindergarten today,


    and Edward was looking at her."


    Everest was depressed.


    Bonnie had learned piano for only a year, but she yed better than Everest.


    Benjamin was amused. Everest was small, but she got jealous.


    He held Everest and put her on hisp. "Everest, if you practice harder, you''ll y better than her."


    Everest blushed.


    She pressed her fair and tender fingers on the piano and swiped the keys. After a long while, she said


    childishly, "But I want to be awyer when I grow up."


    Benjamin kissed her cheek and said, "They don''t sh against each other. You can be awyer when


    you grow up, but you can y the piano better now."


    His words soothed Everest.


    She clenched her fists. That was right. She didn''t practice the piano on Edward''s ount.


    As they chatted, Madelyn finished cooking and put a te of spaghetti on the table in the dining room.


    Benjamin stroked Everest''s head and asked her to continue ying the piano. Until Everest went to


    take a shower at night, Madelyn had time to have a talk with Benjamin.


    They were in Everest''s bedroom. Everest was taking a shower in the bathroom.


    Madelyn tidied up the room


    Benjamin sat on the sofa and watched her back, touched.


    Madelyn hade back. She looked after the family like a wife. Benjamin was pleased that she stayed


    with him like this.


    He said in a hoarse voice, "Don''t you have anything to tell me?"


    Madelyn was holding Everest''s pajamas. When she heard what he said, she turned around and


    lowered her voice, "I saw it. Benjamin, Everest is still young. You don''t need to decide her future so


    early."


    Benjamin took a cigarette from his pocket. He didn''t light it and toyed with it between his fingers.


    He stretched his hand toward Madelyn.


    Madelyn hesitated and sat next to him. She couldn''t help but say, "Benjamin."


    Benjamin stroked her face gently and said hoarsely, "I yed golf with Edward''s father today and


    talked about a project with him. In addition, I invested 28.5 million dors in hispany."


    Madelyn objected, "Benjamin, money can''t buy love."


    Benjamin gazed at her and smiled faintly. "But it can buy Everest''s safety."


    Everest''s special physique needed Edward badly. It didn''t matter that their family backgrounds didn''t


    match. The most important thing was that his blood had an Rh-negative trait.


    Besides, Edward was outstanding and ambitious.


    Benjamin made this decision ording to his intuition.


    Madelyn knew he had made up his mind. She was not happy, but she failed to point out what was


    wrong.


    Benjamin put his arms around her slender waist and said affectionately, "Madelyn, I know you don''t like


    the idea, so I''m consulting you."


    Madelynughed with exasperation. "Are you consulting me? You''ve made your decision."


    Benjamin gazed at her.


    After a while, he smiled and said, "Yes, I''ve decided it. I''m waiting for your approval."


    Madelyn thought he was shameless, and she didn''t want to encourage him.


    At this moment, Everest went out of the bathroom. She looked lovely with her small body and brown


    hair.


    The sight of Everest calmed Madelyn down.


    Madelyn dried Everest with a bathing towel and put her in pajamas.


    Benjamin went downstairs to fetch Everest a bottle of milk.


    When he went upstairs, he saw that Madelyn had put on her pajamas. It seemed she nned to sleep


    with Everest. Benjamin smiled and handed the child the milk, saying gently, "Everest, you''re going to


    sleep with us tonight."


    Madelyn was speechless.


    Everest held the milk bottle and hung on Benjamin, asking him to take her there.


    Benjamin carried the child with a smile and headed toward the master bedroom. After he took a few


    steps, he looked back at Madelyn deliberately. "Why don''t you go?"


    Madelyn walked slowly behind them.


    The light in the master bedroom was dim and cozy.


    Benjamin ced the child on the bed. She was so small. He lifted her leg and looked at the wound,


    which had a crust. It made Benjemin feel pain to his daughter. He couldn''t help kissing her wound.


    Madelyn gazed at him.


    Benjamin hadpletely changed. Perhaps he still liked to talk dirty when he was alone with her and


    indulged himself in sex, but he was a good father.


    Madelyn was too preupied with her thoughts to notice that Benjamin was looking at her.


    His eyes were tender¡­


    In the dim light, he held Madelyn''s hand with Everest between them and muttered softly, "Are you still


    angry?"


    Madelyn scratched his palm gently with her slender fingers.


    "I''m not angry for the moment."


    "Can I ask Mr. Karter and his family toe for dinner?"


    ¡­


    Madelyn wished to withdraw what she said.


    Benjamin chuckled softly in the dark. "Madelyn, if you''re still angry,e over and torture me."


    Madelyn ignored him. She closed her eyes and went to sleep.


    How shameless he was!


    In the middle of the night, Benjamin quietly went over and pinned her to the bed.


    Madelyn said in a sobbing voice, "Don''t. Go to the guest room. We''ll wake up Everest."


    Benjamin carried her with his arms. As he walked, he kissed her.


    When they entered the guest room, Madelyn was turned on by him.


    Afterward, she leaned on his shoulder in exhaustion, wishing to sleep.


    But she managed to say, "Benjamin, why do you think of this all day long?"


    Benjamin was lying on his back. At this moment, he turned over and looked at her delicate eyes in the


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    dim light, whispering, "Madelyn, I''m thirty-three. How many nights have we spent together during the


    past five years? I''ve wasted the best time of a man for you."


    Madelyn touched his face and said, "Who caused it?"


    Perhaps their hearts were softte at night, so they could speak of those things they didn''t want to or


    dare to mention.


    Benjamin said hoarsely, "It''s me."


    "Madelyn, don''t be angry with me. I''ll treat you well."


    ¡­


    Benjamin couldn''t help pulling Madelyn closer and pressed her to his chest tightly.


    He had lost her for too long.


    He made love to her all the time not only to satisfy his desire but also to prove that she still belonged to


    him.


    It was a long night¡­


    Benjamin turned over and took possession of Madelyn again.

 Chapter 261 Behave Yourself Until Youre Fully Recovered

    Chapter 261 Behave Yourself Until You''re Fully Recovered


    Chapter 261 Behave Yourself Until You''re Fully Recovered


    After a few days of indulgence, things took a turn for the worse.


    Benjamin caught a fever!


    Madelyn was both embarrassed and mad. She refused to let hime close and forced him to rest at


    home.


    Benjamin was restless even when he was sick, always getting handsy. Madelyn couldn''t control him,


    and she didn''t dare make a big fuss and take him to the hospital. She only called the family doctor.


    On Monday, Brianna called and invited her for a coffee.


    Madelyn breathed a sigh of relief.


    She pushed open the study door and found Benjamin leaning against the couch and reading


    documents.


    He wore a white sweater and gray leisure pants, exuding azy and homely vibe.


    Madelyn walked over and touched his forehead.


    Luckily, the fever had subsided.


    Benjamin grabbed her hand and looked at her with a faint smile. "Going out?"


    Madelyn nodded. "Mom asked me toe over!"


    Benjamin''s gaze returned to the documents, and he snorted lightly. "So you''re just going to leave the


    patient at home? Mrs. rk... you enjoy yourself and don''t take responsibility?"


    Madelyn spoke softly. "I''ll be back early in the afternoon!"


    He remained silent.


    Madelyn kissed him. "Is that okay?"


    Benjamin stared at her for a while before slowly saying, "Fine! I want chicken porridge for dinner!"


    Madelyn agreed.


    She took a car to the rk''s mansion. Only Brianna was there when she arrived, so she asked,


    "Where''s Eloise?"


    Brianna smiled and replied, "She took Emerson out to y!"


    She led Madelyn upstairs and into the living room of the master bedroom.


    In such a private ce, Madelyn knew Brianna wanted to discuss something confidential and didn''t


    want the household servants to overhear.


    She voluntarily went to make coffee.


    After brewing the coffee and cing it down, they sat close together. Brianna handed a photo to


    Madelyn and said, "This person is around the same age as Eloise, and he is a university teacher and


    has a small business. How do you think of him?"


    Madelyn took the photo and examined it closely.


    He looked good and had an elegant temperament...


    Madelyn thought he was pretty good!


    Brianna appeared worried. "Maddie, can you help me persuade Eloise? Although she agreed to the


    blind date, she is very negative about it! But she can''t stay single forever. Her father doesn''t say it out


    loud, but deep down, he hopes she can start a family."


    Madelyn felt a surge of emotions.


    She felt somewhat guilty.


    Brianna could sense her feelings and patted her hand. "Her rtionship with your uncle wasn''t one-


    sided! It''s just that there wasn''t meant to be any fate between them!"


    As she spoke, she wiped away a tear. "They have a child now. They might have considered a reunion


    for the kid''s sake if it weren''t for the unresolved conflicts!"


    Madelynforted her for a long time...


    At four o''clock in the afternoon, Eloise returned with Emerson.


    Madelyn yed with Emerson, and after a while, Eloise could tell why Madelyn came here. She called


    a servant to take Emerson to have dessert.


    With the room quiet, Eloise whispered, "Maddie, mom asked you toe here, didn''t she?"


    Madelyn sighed softly.


    She gently tapped on a photo, and Eloise stared at it for a long time...


    Madelyn whispered, "If you don''t want to go, I''ll talk to them! And if that doesn''t work, we can have your


    brother discuss it with them!"


    She didn''t want to pressure Eloise.


    Because she was also a woman, she could tell that Eloise hadn''t fully moved on from that past


    rtionship, and with Emerson by her side, it wouldn''t be easy for her to ept someone else!


    Eloise clenched the photo and lowered her gaze.


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    After a while, she said in a low but firm voice, "Maddie, I''ll go."


    Madelyn was momentarily stunned.


    Eloise looked up, and a faint smile appeared. "People have to move forward, right? I''m willing to go on


    this blind date. Besides, this person looks pretty good, and maybe we''ll get along!"


    Madelyn didn''t know what to say!


    She gently embraced Eloise...


    Eloise leaned against her shoulder. Maybe because she was close to Madelyn, she was willing to


    share those emotions that she didn''t want to show to others. Her voice choked with sadness, "Maddie! I


    truly liked him back then, a hundred times more than I liked Daniel! But he had so much... I felt so


    insignificant!"


    Madelyn left the rk''s mansion.


    After picking up Everest and returning home, she couldn''t focus on anything.


    Even when she was making shredded chicken porridge, she identally burned herself.


    Benjamin felt heartbroken and took her hand to apply medicine, silently watching her. "What did my


    mother say? Is it because of Eloise''s situation that you are so lost?"


    Madelyn was about to answer but noticed Everest looking at them wide-eyed.


    She held back her words and whispered, "Let''s talk about it tonight!"


    Benjamin chuckled.


    He put Everest to bed and went back to the master bedroom.


    As he walked in, he saw Madelyn in a bathrobe. She was applying skincare products in front of the


    dressing table. He approached her gently and traced along her graceful shoulder line, his voice husky.


    "What happened to Eloise?"


    Madelyn didn''t stop him.


    She let him indulge her as she savored the moment.


    Finally, she leaned softly against his shoulder and whispered everything to him.


    Benjamin kissed the soft flesh behind her ear, his voice husky. "Madelyn, do you want her to be with


    Keh?"


    Madelyn turned around and hugged his waist.


    She said softly, "Yes...and no! Ben, I want her to marry for love, not settle for less! Do you know a


    woman with a child will always be at a disadvantage in the dating pool, no matter how young and


    beautiful she is?"


    She couldn''t bear to see Eloise like this!


    Today, Eloise cried so sadly that Madelyn guessed she was willing to go on a blind date because of her


    parents.


    Her identity was exceptional, so she told all of this to Benjamin, hoping he would take it to heart.


    After listening, Benjamin remained silent for a long time...


    Then he embraced herpletely, gently caressing her earlobe. "Madelyn, did you marry for love? Tell


    me, okay?"


    Madelyn''s voice was low. "I was talking about Eloise with you!"


    Benjamin smiled faintly.


    He leaned in to kiss her for a while before saying, "Let her go on the blind date! It will be beneficial for


    her and her rtionship with Keh. If Keh can bear it, then they were never meant to be."


    It can only be said that Madelyn still didn''t fully understand him!


    Madelyn looked at him, unmoving.


    After a while, Benjamin tugged at her ear. "Are you dumbfounded? Stop staring at me like that!"


    Madelyn still didn''t move.


    He had always been driven by desire, and now she was sitting in his arms in a disheveled state, which


    made him unable to resist.


    Madelyn snapped back to reality and gently held his hand, her face blushing. "You''re still not well!


    Behave yourself... Wait until you''re fully recovered, okay?"


    Benjamin chuckled softly.


    Madelyn almost dared not look into his eyes. She was about to find a reason to send him to the guest


    room when footsteps could be heard in the stairwell, followed by the maid at the door saying, "Mr. rk


    and Mrs. rk, Mr. Ryan is here!"


    Madelyn was visibly startled.


    She looked at Benjamin. "It''s sote. Why would Unclee over?"


    Benjamin straightened his clothes and whispered, "It must be something important. I''ll go down first.


    You change ande downter!"


    Madelyn nodded.


    Inside the vi''s grand hall, the crystal chandelier illuminated the spacious area.


    Keh was not sitting but standing in front of the piano, carefully observing. He had heard that


    Benjamin spent a staggering 85.7 million to buy this antique piece, which was truly insane!


    "Uncle!"


    Benjamin stood in the stairwell and called out.


    He gazed at Keh and reluctantly admitted that this older man was very attractive. Even just from


    behind, he exuded charm...

 Chapter 262 He Was Worse Than Beasts

    Chapter 262 He Was Worse Than Beasts


    Chapter 262 He Was Worse Than Beasts


    Benjamin called out.


    Keh turned around, pointing at the piano and smiling faintly, "It looks impressive!"


    Under the crystal chandelier, Benjamin''s eyes were gentle, filled with a hint of nostalgia. "I bought it


    when Madelyn and I just got together. It used to be in the apartment, but now it was moved here for


    Everest''s piano lessons!"


    He gestured, "Have a seat!"


    Keh strolled over to the sofa and sat down, gently cing a document on the table.


    Benjamin picked it up and opened it.


    It was an internal document, about seven to eight pages long, listing Eleanor''s major crimes, followed


    by the prosecution''s rmended sentence.


    Late at night, Keh''s voice was low, "Death penalty! It will ur in approximately two months,


    barring unforeseen circumstances!"


    As he spoke, his gaze was deep, and his emotionsplex.


    He had learned some undisclosed information internally, and now he also knew why Everest managed


    to survive despite losing so much blood!


    He underestimated Benjamin!


    When necessary, he could be truly ruthless!


    After Benjamin finished reading, he returned the document to Keh.


    Deep down, he knew that the swift progress of this case had Keh''s contribution behind it! Although


    Keh and he didn''t always see eye to eye, in critical moments, behind closed doors, they were a


    team.


    Benjamin stood up and walked to the bar, retrieving a bottle of wine and two highball sses with a


    smile. "Take a drink?"


    His implication was to stay here overnight after having a drink.


    Keh waved his hand.


    He nced upstairs to where Madelyn stood and stood up, patting the wrinkles on his pants with a


    smile. "No, I have a meeting tomorrow morning!"


    Benjamin didn''t insist on him staying overnight either.


    Keh patted his shoulder. "The driver is waiting for me! Ben, have a good time with Madelyn!"


    He seemed to think of something when he said these words and furrowed his brow lightly.


    In any case, he couldn''t let go.


    Benjamin understood without words and did not mention Eloise. He escorted Keh to the car.


    The ck Audi drove away slowly.


    Benjamin didn''t immediately return to the vi. He stood alone in the parking lot, took out a cigarette


    from his pocket, and lowered his head to light it.


    The smoke filled the air, blurring his face.


    He recalled many memories.


    Good and evil, but they would all be part of the past with Eleanor''s punishment.


    He only smoked one cigarette before turning back.


    Madelyn stood at the entrance of the vi, her face softened under the dim lights. Benjamin walked


    over quickly and embraced her shoulders. "Why did youe out? It''s quite cold outside!"


    Madelyn held onto his hand.


    She slowly interlocked her fingers with his, then gently nestled in his arms.


    Benjamin looked down at her, his voice unbelievably gentle. "What''s wrong? Are you even more clingy


    than Everest? Do you want me to hold you?"


    Madelyn tightened her grip and whispered, "Benjamin, don''t speak. I just want to hold you for a while!"


    They embraced silently, doing nothing else!


    Benjamin tenderly held her slender waist.


    After a while, he leaned down to kiss her. "Call me Ben from now on, alright?"


    She made a sound of agreement, behaving exceptionally obedient!


    Benjamin felt a surge of heat.


    Madelyn was like this. When angry with him, she wouldn''t give in, but she became incredibly soft when


    she was willing to obey. No matter how he yed with her, she would never resist!


    Usually, he might have acted like a beast.


    But tonight, they needed each other''s warmth to heal the wounds of the past!


    ...


    On the other side, Keh sat in the car.


    The driver asked softly, "Mr. Ryan, where do we go now?"


    Keh closed his eyes and rested.


    In his mind, there were moments of pondering over ssified projects and... that person!


    After a long silence, he hoarsely whispered, "Let''s go back to the hotel!"


    After the meeting the next day, he would have to return to Vadiff. After all, he was genuinely busy.


    He took on that mission a few years ago.


    Amid his bustling life, he walked on thin ice, every step precarious!


    In public, he was the esteemed Mr. Ryan,manding respect from everyone. But who knew that


    behind closed doors, if he wanted to see the girl he liked, he had to find an apartment, like hiding a


    precious gem in a golden chamber!


    Even now, he still remembered their breakup two years ago.


    Being someone who always had self-control, he smoked two packs of cigarettes in one night.


    He restrained himself from seeing her!


    By not seeing her, he wouldn''t lose his sanity and wouldn''t get caught in love like a naive young man. It


    had been so long, he thought he had moved on, but he hadn''t!


    Keh couldn''t resist it, so he drove alone to see her.


    But when he saw her, she wasn''t alone.


    She was walking out of the cinema with a young and refined man. The cinema was currently showing a


    famous romance movie, "Ex III."


    They had dinner together and went on a date!


    It wasn''t until nine o''clock at night that the man finally escorted her home!


    Keh''s car was parked not far from the entrance of rk''s mansion. He silently watched the


    charming couple, feeling a mix of emotions. He realized he was jealous!


    If he were younger and didn''t have these restraints, he could step out of the car right now and grab that


    guy by the cor, roaring, "Stay away from my woman!"


    But now, he could only stay in the darkness, silently watching!


    Eloise got out of the car, watching the man depart.


    The person introduced to her this time was actually quite good, and she was willing to get to know him.


    She had dinner with him and watched a movie, feeling neither good nor bad.


    Perhaps with more time together, they could get married.


    In the night, she stood there, uncertain emotions flickering in her eyes.


    Keh approached, calling out to her, "Eloise!"


    Eloise took a step back.


    She was dazed and seemed a bit lost but mostly guarded.


    Keh lifted his chin slightly, gesturing towards his car, "Get in the car, let''s talk!"


    But Eloise refused.


    She took two steps and thought about calling the security guard to open the door, but Keh was


    quick. He grabbed her arm and half-forced her into the car.


    The car door mmed shut.


    He quickly got in as well and turned to look at her. "Blind date?"


    Eloise didn''t deny it. Her tone was indifferent. "Yes! He''s a nice person! He has also met Emerson, and


    he epts Emerson''s existence!"


    Keh''s Adam''s apple rolled twice.


    With his identity, if someone had told him before that his son would call someone else father, it would


    have been a joke. But now, it could actually happen.


    The girl he once possessed would sleep with someone else.


    His son would call someone else father!


    Keh lit a cigarette and took a shallow puff, tilting his chin slightly.


    He was handsome.


    Even when smoking, he was much more attractive than the average man.


    There were so many times when he held her under him, passionately loving her, and then he would


    lean against the headboard and smoke. At that time, his emotions were actuallyplicated, tinged


    with a hint of guilt.


    After all, she was 16 years younger than him, and what he did was worse than an animal.


    Once, she leaned over and took a gentle puff from his fingertip cigarette.


    He almost burned his hand!


    Perhaps stimted by that, he didn''t let her go all night. He felt like he was no different from a beast.


    Inside the car, the smoke slowly dispersed.


    Eloise couldn''t help but cough. Her voice was soft and weak. "Let me get out of the car!"


    Keh stubbed out the cigarette.


    His gaze was profound as he asked the question he had always wanted to ask, "Do you like him?"


    Eloise''s eyes welled up with tears.


    She spoke softly, "It''s alright."


    Keh understood her state of mind. She didn''t say she liked him out of spite. She simply said it was


    alright, but that ''alright'' was even more terrifying than resentment.


    She had resigned herself and settled for less!


    She truly would be willing to marry someone else, as long as that person met the minimum


    requirements and treated Emerson well!


    He had hurt her, and he had smoothed out her edges!


    Keh felt a pang in his heart, and his emotions grew even moreplex. He didn''t even know who


    to me.


    He stared at her for a long time before handing her his phone, his voice calm once again with a hint of


    imperceptible tenderness, "Make a call to your mother and let her know you won''t be going home for


    now."


    Eloise froze, her body stiffening. "I won''t go out with you!"


    Keh whispered, "I need to talk to you about something. If you don''t want to, I''ll make this call


    myself. Eloise, do you really want it toe to that?"


    Tears welled up in Eloise''s eyes, mingled with a sense of humiliation.


    But she still made the call because it was Keh''s phone, and she couldn''t lie. She could only tell the


    truth, saying that she needed to discuss something with Keh concerning the child and it might take


    her longer to go back home.


    On the other end, Brianna fell silent for a moment. "Let Keh speak."


    Eloise handed him the phone.


    Keh took the phone and spoke quietly after whatever Brianna said on the other end, "I understand.


    I won''t overstep my bounds."


    After a few more sentences, he hung up the phone and tossed it into thepartment.


    The car started to move slowly.


    Eloise leaned against the seatback and murmured, "Keh, aren''t you really busy?"


    He held the steering wheel and smiled faintly, "Do you know about my schedule?"


    She responded sarcastically, "The news is everywhere! The charming Mr. Ryan is always in the


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    spotlight wherever he goes. It''s hard not to know!"


    Keh remained silent.


    He drove quietly in the night, with the young girl he had once cherished sitting beside him.


    At this moment, he wished time would freeze.


    So, they were really together now.


    Half an hourter, he drove the car onto a quiet road, with familiar scenery on either side.


    Eloise recognized it.


    Her reaction was intense, as she desperately pounded on the car window, "I''m not going! Keh, I''m


    not going!"


    What was this?


    They had been separated for almost three years, and now he was bringing her to the apartment they


    had once shared so intimately. What did he want to do? What did he think of her?


    Naturally, she couldn''t get out of the car.


    Her palms turned red from pounding on the window, and tears filled her eyes.


    No matter how calm and distant she had been towards him in recent days, at this moment she felt like


    she had returned to the past, the irresistible girl who was helpless in front of Keh and unable to


    resist his demands.


    She hated this version of herself!


    Keh parked the car.


    He turned to look at the tears in her eyes, his heart aching intensely.


    He was a mature and astute man. How could he not see that she still had feelings for him? Otherwise,


    her reaction wouldn''t have been so intense!


    Keh tenderly touched her face, soothing her as ifforting a child. "I won''t do anything! We just


    need to talk about some things, Eloise. Have we really lost all trust between us? If you don''t trust me,


    at least trust your mother. She has agreed to it too!"


    He was skillful with his words.


    She had no strength to argue back.

 Chapter 263 Wait for Me for Two Years

    Chapter 263 Wait for Me for Two Years


    Chapter 263 Wait for Me for Two Years


    Keh got out of the car first.


    He walked over to the other side and opened the door, watching her in the darkness.


    Eloise''s slender neck was tensed, and even a hint of veins could be seen.


    Keh was patient.


    After a while, Eloise finally stepped out of the car and ignored him as she walked ahead.


    Under the dim streetlights, her slender figure was concealed in the shadow of a ne tree. It was early


    autumn, and the leaves were already showing signs of decay, adding a touch of destion to the


    scene.


    Keh closed the car door.


    He took a few quick steps to grab her wrist and pulled her into his arms before she could react.


    Perhaps it was the alluring night, or perhaps it was the emotions that were stirred up by the


    surroundings.


    All the restraints he had promised were thrown out the window.


    Beneath the tree, he kissed her, holding the back of her head with a hint of roughness, pressing her


    against the tree trunk... delving deep inside her to the point where she couldn''t even breathe properly!


    "Keh! Let me go!"


    Eloise pounded his shoulders and struggled desperately, but she couldn''t move him.


    Soon, her mouth and nose were filled with the scent of tobo.


    Everywhere, there was his scent!


    Keh looked impably clean, but only she knew that once he tainted her, that faint masculine


    fragrance would linger on her for a long time...


    The rough kisssted for a while.


    Finally, he released his grip on her.


    Then, his thin and handsome face received a resounding p, the sound echoing particrly loudly in


    the night.


    Keh was handsome and charming, but almost everyone knew he had a bad temper. Women


    weren''t much more than toys to him, and no woman dared to act spoiled or throw a tantrum with him-let


    alone p him.


    Only Eloise dared to do this.


    After she struck him, she turned her head, and her eyes were red. "Do you have any right to kiss me?"


    She said. "Keh, what am I to you? Are you bringing me here to continue being your secret


    mistress?"


    Keh pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth, probably cutting it in the process. She hit


    him really hard!


    He gazed at her intensely. "I''m sorry. I couldn''t control myself."


    He hadn''t had her in years and wasn''t a saint. He knew he wanted her-he had never forgotten their


    shared passion.


    Ha had not forgotten her not for a single moment.


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    But Keh had his limits. Even he knew that the kiss just now crossed a line.


    He apologized and said, "Let''s go upstairs. There are some documents you need to sign."


    Eloise hesitated but agreed. After all, they had a child together, and given Keh''s position, she was


    afraid he might try to take custody away from her.


    Momentster, they entered the apartment.


    Everything remained as luxurious as before, with nock of attention to detail. The table was even set


    with fresh fruit-her favorite kind! Each piece was plump and juicy.


    Keh closed the door behind them and followed her gaze. He murmured, "I had Kaleb prepare


    these. Over the years, he remembered everything you liked to eat."


    Eloise''s throat felt sweet and fishy.


    She clenched her fists, telling herself no longer to be deceived by his gentle demeanor.


    Keh was too good at winning people''s hearts. Too skilled with his words, he could captivate


    anyone with just a few sentences.


    If she hadn''t been hurt so deeply, she thought she might have been tempted by him again and perhaps


    would have lost herself in this extravagant apartment tonight.


    Unfortunately, she was no longer naive and innocent.


    She spoke calmly, "I think what you want to tell me is about Emerson! Now you can speak, and after


    that, you can take me home! I''m not like Mr. Ryan. I agree to be in a rtionship with someone, and


    being unclear with you disrespects that person!"


    Keh chuckled, "Do you mind this much? Will you not marry anyone but him?"


    She didn''t respond.


    His gaze dimmed slightly as he walked over to the sofa and knelt down, motioning for her to sit down


    as well. "Come here and take a look at these documents."


    Eloise pursed her lips.


    She sat down, and in front of her was a stack of papers. She flipped through a few pages, which


    seemed to be about Emerson''s support.


    Eloise didn''t refuse.


    Emerson was their child, and he was willing to provide financial support. She had no reason to reject


    that.


    That''s what Madelyn said.


    Madelyn said, if you can''t have the man, then get his money! For example, when she broke up with


    Benjamin, the checks he wrote gotrger every time!


    But Keh made thingsplicated.


    She was a brilliant business school student, but even she found it confusing.


    Keh gazed at her face, noticing that she had gained some weight and looked better than before.


    He found it quite strange, considering that Eloise wasn''t young anymore, but she had always had baby


    fat, probably because she was carefree and didn''t think too much.


    Now, her little face was wrinkled with worry.


    Keh smiled lightly, "With your mind, you probably won''t be able to figure out these things in just


    one night!"


    He enjoyed seeing her like this!


    He went to peel the fruit.


    In the past, he used to rendezvous with her here. She wouldn''t do anything, just call him Uncle Ryan


    while lying under him. He took care of everything for her, from meals to dressing and bathing. Now,


    even though she couldn''t do much, he couldn''t help but want to take care of her.


    Keh carefully selected a few fruits, peeled them into a fruit tter, and passed it to her.


    Eloise nced at him.


    He also looked at her quietly. "I didn''t put any misceneous stuff in it!"


    He actually saw her on a date tonight and ate at a high-end restaurant. But through the ss, he


    noticed that she ate very little, probably not to her taste.


    Eloise ate a few pieces of fruit.


    From the side, her little mouth puffed up, looking somewhat cute.


    Keh''s heart softened, and he couldn''t help but say gently, "There are ingredients in the fridge. Let


    me cook for you!"


    Eloise was visibly startled.


    She put down the documents in her hands and suddenly spoke in a soft voice, "Mr. Ryan, our affair is


    over! Other than Emerson, we have no further involvement or connection between us! Don''t make it


    seem like we''re still the same as before. There''s no need for that!"


    Keh was already putting on an apron.


    He paused at her words and turned his head to look at her. "Eloise, what if I am?"


    The air became deathly silent...


    This apartment was filled with too many memories of them! Passionate and sweet, but now it felt pale


    and powerless.


    Keh took off the apron and walked back to his original position.


    He decided to be straightforward with her.


    "Eloise! These assets in your hands are the majority of my personal wealth. What I''ve left behind is a


    part that cannot be divided from the Ryan family! I hope you understand that this is not merely the cost


    of raising a child! Eloise, stop calling me Mr. Ryan, call me Uncle Ryan or Keh... whatever you


    prefer..."


    Eloise''s voice sounded stiff. "Do you want to reconcile with me?"


    Keh looked troubled.


    He had never begged anyone in his life, nor had he ever lowered his status. But that day, he knelt at


    the rk family.


    At that moment, he impulsively wanted to marry her!


    But then, something happened with Vadiff. In that project, two technicians died.


    It was a car ident!


    The scene was terrible, and there were no witnesses.


    Keh couldn''t risk her and Emerson''s lives because of it, and he couldn''t tell her the truth! The


    project was a top-secret n that had been implemented for three years.


    No one knew he had a child, except Kaleb!


    So, he gave her these things, with only one request: "Eloise, wait for me for two years!"


    Eloise felt choked up.


    Her lips trembled, and it took her a while to regain herposure.


    After a long silence, she asked in a low voice, "Why should I wait for you? Three years ago, you made


    me wait! Wait in Gredax. Wait in this apartment. And now, you want me to continue waiting! Mr. Ryan,


    do you think a woman can have many two-year periods in her life?"


    She was already in her early thirties!


    She gave birth to his child, and now he wanted her to wait another two years!


    She understood what he meant. He wanted her to be his secretary, his lover. He woulde to Gredax


    to rendezvous with her, just like three years ago. How could he dare to make such a request?


    Eloise pushed aside those documents.


    Her expression grew even colder than before. "Mr. Ryan, I don''t want any of these anymore!"


    Keh sat there.


    He didn''t chase after her when Eloise left, and he called Kaleb, sounding exhausted. "She''s gone. Take


    her home!"


    After saying that, he hung up the phone.


    He quietly picked up those documents, looking at the numbers, all the things he wanted to give her.


    But she didn''t want them!


    Yes, the rk family didn''tck money.


    He, the illustrious Mr. Ryan, couldn''t give her love or a stable life. In other words, he couldn''t give her


    anything she wanted.


    She refused to wait, and she was right!


    Why should she wait for him?


    Was it because he was older or because he wanted to hide her away from the public eye?


    Keh suddenly leaned back on the couch, gently closing his eyes. Even so, his tear ducts still felt


    warm.


    Eloise didn''t take Kaleb''s car.


    She hailed a taxi.


    She sat in the car, crying relentlessly. The driver couldn''t bear it anymore and handed her arge pack


    of tissues.


    She called Madelyn while crying.


    Late at night, Madelyn answered her call quickly, her voice gentle. "Eloise, is something wrong?"


    Eloise sobbed.


    She pressed the tissue against her nose, her voice choked. "Madelyn, he''s such a jerk! Sob... How


    could he treat me like that? I used to think he liked me a little bit, but he... I hate him!"


    Madelyn listened to these childish words.


    Sheughed and felt a pang of sympathy. After a few moments offort, she whispered, "Are you still


    in the car? Thene over to my ce!"


    Eloise sniffled and agreed.


    Madelyn hung up the phone and dialed Keh''s number.


    It was indeed difficult for her to be caught in the middle, and she phrased her words delicately. "Uncle,


    Eloise called me! I asked her toe to my ce tonight!"


    Keh''s voice was hoarse. "She barely ate dinner. Make sure she eats something!"


    Madelyn responded with an "mm-hmm."


    After hanging up the phone, she went to the kitchen to prepare ate-night snack.


    Benjamin followed her.


    He prepared a ss of milk for Everest and casually asked, "Are they having a quarrel?"


    Madelyn responded with an "mm-hmm" and gently lifted the lid.


    As the aroma of the chicken noodle soup filled the pot, she suddenly felt a wave of nausea.


    This feeling was all too familiar!

 Chapter 264 We Have Another Child

    Chapter 264 We Have Another Child


    Chapter 264 We Have Another Child


    Madelyn held her chest and dry heaved a few times.


    Benjamin had just finished preparing the milk and immediately walked over when he heard the sound,


    asking anxiously, "What''s wrong?"


    Madelyn looked somewhat pale.


    She actually had a clue in her heart and shook her head lightly at him. "It''s nothing! Just feel a bit


    nauseous!"


    Benjamin guided her to sit down on the side.


    He crouched in front of her, gently patting her back and softly saying, "Don''t do household chores


    anymore. Let the domestic helper do it, or else I''ll take care of you!"


    By now, they were on equal footing.


    Madelyn gazed at his handsome features, feeling her heart flutter. Benjamin had calmed down and


    truly was a good husband.


    She lightly touched his face, her voice soft. "Didn''t you want another child, Ben... Perhaps next year,


    Everest will have a younger brother or sister!"


    Benjamin froze.


    Madelyn took hold of his hand, cing it gently on her abdomen. "Are you happy about it?"


    With how frequently they had been intimate, having a child shouldn''t be unusual, right?


    After a moment, Benjamin found his voice again. His hand lightly caressed the t area. It was still too


    early for any sensations since she had just conceived, but he still wanted to touch, to feel the presence


    of their child.


    Later, he half knelt closer to her.


    Madelyn was filled with a tender feeling. No woman could resist a man being close to her. He didn''t say


    anything, but she could feel his happiness.


    "Ben, serve the noodles, or they''ll burn!"


    Benjamin was still reluctant.


    Madelyn used her delicate fingers to trace his handsome features lightly. "If it''s true, don''t neglect


    Everest!"


    Benjamin chuckled.


    He said, "How could I? I''ll take care of you three!" With that, he lifted Madelyn and ced her on the


    sofa in the living room.


    After setting her down, his dark eyes eagerly stared at her belly.


    Madelyn patted his hand and said, "Go serve the noodles and heat up Everest''s milk!"


    Benjamin leaned in and kissed her, saying, "Thank you, Madelyn!"


    He went to the kitchen to finish what he was doing when Eloise''s car arrived.


    Eloise was crying quite sadly.


    Benjamin shook the bottle in his hand and asked, "Did that old man bully you again?"


    Madelyn couldn''t stand such talk and urged him, "Everest is probably falling asleep. Why don''t you


    bring the milk over?"


    Benjamin''s gaze became deep, with a hint of meaning.


    He didn''t say anything else and slowly walked upstairs, taking care of the child.


    Eloiseined for a while and then couldn''t help but sit at the table and eat the bowl of noodles,


    sniffling as she ate.


    Under the dim light, her little face had a pearly glow, with tiny beads of sweat on her nose.


    Madelyn could understand why Uncle couldn''t let her go.


    Being someone in his position, he was always living in calctions. Having Eloise by his side should


    make him rxed!


    "Eat slowly!"


    Madelyn was two years younger than Eloise, but when she looked at Eloise, she saw a child.


    Eloise finished eating the noodles in one breath!


    She relied heavily on Madelyn, even though Madelyn and Keh were family.


    After Benjamin finishedforting Everest and came downstairs, he saw Eloise lying on Madelyn''s


    legs. He walked over and tapped her head, saying, "Don''t lie on Maddie''s legs!"


    Madelyn couldn''t help but say, "It''s okay!"


    Benjamin''s gaze became deep, and he didn''t dare say anything more.


    Benjamin lifted Eloise and made her sit properly. He held a bottle and sat opposite her, looking serious.


    He said, "If you can''t let go, just make do. If you''re unwilling, follow our parents'' intentions and have a


    good date during the matchmaking process!"


    Eloise lowered her eyes and remained silent.


    Benjamin continued, "Dating is not against thew! Or are you afraid that he will mind and not want you


    if you date?"


    "No!" Eloise denied it immediately.


    "It better not be! Otherwise, it''s just being useless!" Benjamin snorted lightly.


    He walked to the kitchen to wash the bottle. He carefully cleaned Everest''s milk bottle and ced it in


    the sterilizer.


    Eloise watched with wide eyes.


    ...


    At night, Madelyn tossed and turned in bed.


    Benjamin turned to the side and asked softly, "You can''t sleep?"


    Madelyn made a sound of agreement.


    He knew she was worried about Eloise, so he sighed softly. "Madelyn, don''t spoil her too much! She''s


    an adult now and should be able to handle her own affairs instead of us making decisions for her! If you


    always pamper her, when will she grow up?"


    Madelyn felt that what he said made sense.


    She gently moved into his embrace, seeking warmth from him, and softly said, "Apany me to the


    hospital tomorrow. I''ll feel at ease after the check-up!"


    Benjamin lowered his head and kissed her.


    He had already cleared his schedule with Paisley and would be with her all day tomorrow.


    Early in the morning, they first dropped off Everest at the kindergarten.


    When getting into the car, Benjamin considerately helped Madelyn. Everest sat in the child seat, her


    eyes wide open.


    Madelyn sat down.


    The little one''s gaze fell on her belly, and she asked softly, "Mommy, are you having another baby?"


    Madelyn was visibly startled.


    Benjamin fastened the seatbelt for the little one and chuckled, "It wasn''t me who said it! She''s very


    smart!"


    Being a father, he was naturally proud!


    Madelyn didn''t hide anything, either. She kissed Everest and gently said, "We''ll know after the check-


    up."


    Everest didn''t feel jealous.


    She liked having a little brother or sister. With new toys in the house, she even invited Edward toe


    and y.


    After dropping off Everest, Benjamin took Madelyn to the hospital. Paisley had already contacted the


    doctor in advance.


    Soon, they received the results - five weeks pregnant.


    On a bench in the hospital corridor, Madelyn held the ck-and-white ultrasound image and looked at it


    for a long time.


    Benjamin stood by her side, and he immediately called Alexander. What was said on the other end was


    unclear, but Benjamin spoke softly, "Hmm, I''ll bring her back in a while!"


    After hanging up the phone, he looked down at her.


    And so did Madelyn.


    Benjamin''s voice was hoarse, "Madelyn, we''re going to have another child!"


    His heart was gentle, unable to resist holding her gently and letting her rest against his abdomen,


    constantly caressing her soft chestnut hair. He had never known before that he desired a child so


    much.


    They embraced for a long time, and he lightly stroked her cheek. "Madelyn, let''s get married, hmm?"


    She murmured, her voice nasal, "But Benjamin, you haven''t proposed. You haven''t prepared a ring


    either!"


    His heart was moist, filled with tenderness. "Are two children not more reliable than a ring?"


    Madelyn couldn''t help but give him a punch.


    At this moment, they both couldn''t help but think of the wedding ring from their first marriage, buried in


    the rks'' mansion as amemoration of their lost love.


    Benjamin whispered, "Madelyn, back then, when I let you go, I had no confidence."


    At that time, there were too many uncertainties.


    Could Everest survive?


    Would she forget about him?


    Benjamin couldn''t help but hold her tightly. He was never emotional, but at this moment, he was


    grateful... grateful to everyone who brought Madelyn back to him.


    An hourter, he brought Madelyn back to the rk''s mansion.


    The entire rk family knew about this joyful event, and the house was filled with happiness.


    Alexander, initially leisurely smoking, immediately extinguished his cigarette upon seeing Madelyn. He


    stood up and greeted her, "Your mother is praying. She''s getting more superstitious as she gets older!


    But it seems to work. Burning incense every day finally brought another child!"


    He rubbed his hands together and nced at Madelyn''s belly.


    Benjamin supported Madelyn to sit down. "It''s only five weeks, still early!"


    Alexander personally poured a ss of water and ced it in front of Madelyn, showing genuine


    concern and exchanging a few words.


    Benjamin smiled at Madelyn and said, "This child has a big presence! I''ve never experienced this


    treatment in my life!"


    Alexander chuckled and teased, "I''m doing it for Madelyn! What child are you talking about?"


    He smiled but then became serious. "Having more children should improve Everest''s condition."


    The topic became a bit heavy.


    Benjamin took a sip of coffee and casually said, "Everest has been doing better recently, probably


    because she has Madelyn with her every day and doesn''t have time to think about other things."


    Alexander nodded, feeling relieved.


    Just as they were talking, Brianna came out of the prayer room, also in a cheerful mood.


    Alexander said to Brianna, "I think we should quickly arrange the wedding! Last time they had a little


    argument and didn''t have a proper wedding. It''s always been a regret! Madelyn is pregnant. Let Eloise


    help prepare the wedding."


    Brianna naturally agreed.


    She had always cared for Madelyn and also wanted to see her wearing a beautiful wedding dress and


    marrying Ben.


    Alexander, halfway done with his worries, joked, "By the way... that fortune teller, Fletcher Donald,


    really got it right this time. He said Ben''s partner''s zodiac sign is the Rabbit, which turned out to be true!


    How about you take the kids and go pray again? This time, let him read the fortune for Eloise."


    Brianna had actually been thinking about it.


    Last time she made a wish when she went, now that her wish hade true. She naturally wanted to


    go and make an offering.


    The weather was perfect these days, with clear autumn skies.


    Brianna picked a good day and took the younger ones in the family to the temple to make the offering.


    The person called Fletcher Donald, though not easily seen, was willing to meet them because of


    Brianna''s frequent visits and her distinguished status.


    Brianna devoutly made the offering in a simple meditation room and expressed her gratitude.


    Fletcher Donald invited them to sit down and personally brewed the top-grade tea leaves from the


    mountain, which tasted refreshing.


    Brianna spoke with a smile on her face.


    After a few twists and turns, Eloise was mentioned.


    Fletcher Donald was a Buddhist, but he knew well of worldly matters.


    After examining Eloise''s birth chart, he gently stroked his snowy white beard and said with a faint smile,


    "The destined one is born in the Year of the Goat!"


    The Year of the Goat?


    Brianna immediately thought of the recent university professor, who didn''t seem to be born in the Year


    of the Goat. She felt somewhat disappointed.


    At that moment, Madelyn spoke softly, "My uncle was born in the Year of the Goat!"


    Brianna:...


    Fletcher Donald smiled and said, "Destined ones will never part!"


    Perhaps it was because of Madelyn who spoke up; he looked closely at her, but after a while, he


    seemed surprised. Then he looked at the handsome man next to her. The man carried a hint of hostility


    in his brows, umted over many years!


    Fletcher Donald was shocked.


    He pointed at Benjamin and said, "The benefactor has umted too much resentment in his early


    years! It seems that his blood ties are weak!"


    As soon as these words were spoken, the entire rk family froze.


    Brianna''s face was sorrowful and worried, and even Madelyn''s expression changed slightly.


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apple rolled.


    He restrained his emotions and whispered, "I believe that human determination can ovee destiny!"


    Fletcher Donald sped his hands together and said, "The benefactor has a strong personality that


    may endanger those around him. In the future, the benefactor will undergo another cycle in the mortal


    world. Only if he perseveres until the clouds part and the bright moon is revealed, will true fulfillment be


    achieved!"

    Suddenly, he took hold of Madelyn''s hand and wrote a word in her palm.


    Persevere!

 Chapter 265 The Child Wont Get Hurt

    Chapter 265 The Child Won''t Get Hurt


    Chapter 265 The Child Won''t Get Hurt


    After taking care of Everestte at night, Madelyn returned to the master bedroom only to find


    Benjamin absent.


    She found him in the study.


    The night was as dark as ink.


    He didn''t turn on the light. Standing alone by the floor-to-ceiling window, he silently smoked, and the


    smoke dissipated in the night breeze, bing lighter and fainter.


    Madelyn approached him from behind and embraced him. "Ben, are you still thinking about it?"


    Ever since they returned from the temple, he had been feeling down.


    Obviously, it bothered him.


    Benjamin patted the hand at his waist and put out the cigarette. He whispered, "No, don''t overthink it."


    Madelyn pressed her cheek against his back and coaxed him, "Then cheer up, okay? What Fletcher


    Donald said might not necessarily be true. Maybe he just talked nonsense."


    Benjamin turned around, smiling faintly.


    He caressed her belly. "Is the baby behaving?"


    Madelyn nced at him. "It''s only a little over a month; there''s no question of behaving or


    misbehaving."


    Benjamin embraced her and kissed her hair. "Madelyn, I will be there for this child when it is born,


    watching the child grow... I won''t let you leave again."


    Madelyn leaned against his chest, listening to his words.


    After being with him for so long, how could she not sense that his heart was still tense?


    She wanted to please him.


    Tilting her head, she kissed his sharp jawline and moved lower to kiss his neck. The warm breath of a


    woman inevitably stirred him, and besides, she was rarely this proactive.


    Benjamin gently tugged at her long hair, his gaze filled with desire.


    He wanted to make love, but he was concerned about the child.


    After being teased by her for a while, he couldn''t resist her anymore. He lifted her up and gently ced


    her on the spacious desk... Madelyn was a little scared and held onto his neck tightly. "Ben!"


    In the dim light, he leaned in and kissed her.


    Madelyn wanted to move, but he stopped her. He firmly held her hands and continued kissing her, bit


    by bit.


    "Ben..."


    Madelyn''s voice trembled.


    She had only experienced this feeling once before, on that snowy night when he carried her to the top


    of the piano... That night was unforgettable for her!


    Benjamin reassured her, his voice bing hoarse. "Don''t be afraid! It won''t harm the child!"


    He admitted that Fletcher Donald''s words had made him uneasy, so he had to do something now to


    ease the turmoil in his heart.


    For a long time, a long time...


    Benjamin straightened himself up, but still kissed her with his head lowered.


    Madelyn''s body was still trembling, and she let him kiss her, savoring the taste of their madness


    together.


    The night was as cool as water.


    Their breaths intertwined, hot and entangled together.


    Madelyn rested her head on his shoulder, her voice trembling, mixed with a sob as she asked, "Are you


    feeling better?"


    Benjamin nonchntly murmured an acknowledgment.


    He leaned close to her ear, asking softly and huskily, "Were youfortable just now?"


    Madelyn couldn''t speak...


    Benjamin held her quietly, and after some time passed, just as Madelyn was about to fall asleep, he


    whispered in her ear, "Madelyn, I love you!"


    Madelyn felt like she had been burned.


    That warmth went straight to her heart...


    ...


    Benjamin and Madelyn''s wedding was scheduled for a monthter. With Brianna and Eloise taking care


    of everything, Madelyn didn''t need to worry and could focus on taking care of Everest.


    Benjamin, on the other hand, was a bit busy.


    He needed to finish up his work and take a month off to travel around with Madelyn and Everest.


    While he was working, Paisley came in holding a stack of financial reports.


    She came in, but Benjamin only nced at her briefly and said, "Just put it down."


    Paisley didn''t move.


    Benjamin was a little surprised and took the stack of papers to look at them. He was shocked to see


    that they were financial reports from Bravo Legal Firm, which he had founded and was still the sole


    major shareholder despite leaving the legal world three years ago.


    He knew he should have sold his shares but never got around to it.


    Benjamin flipped through the papers for a while and whispered to Paisley, "Issue a statement for me


    Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    and sell it if there''s a suitable price."


    Paisley nodded, feeling a bit sentimental too.


    Benjamin founded thisw firm. It has handled many high-profile cases both domestically and


    internationally. It wasn''t easy to even make an appointment with Mr. rk at its peak. Getting an


    appointment was harder than seeing a specialist at a hospital.


    Paisley left quickly.


    Benjamin sat there quietly, going through the financial reports. The reason he made this decision so


    quickly was actually influenced by the words of Fletcher Donald.


    Only he knew how many things he did against his conscience when he fought thosewsuits in


    exchange for fame and excessivemissions.


    How many things did he do that went against his true feelings?


    Feeling emotional, he continued looking through the reports. Just then, the phone on the table rang.


    It was from a specific detention center, and the other end politely spoke, "Mr. rk, I hope I''m not


    bothering you."


    Benjamin guessed it had something to do with Eleanor, and they exchanged a few words.


    The person on the other end paused for a moment before getting to the point, "Mr. rk, Ms. Bet


    would like to see you before she dies. Are you avable?"


    Squeezing the receiver, Benjamin felt angry!


    He lowered his voice, "She intended to harm my daughter. Do you think I would be avable?"


    The person also felt it was inappropriate and apologized before hanging up the phone.


    Benjamin threw the phone away.


    He felt restless and couldn''t help but take out a cigarette, bowing his head to light it.


    Fletcher Donald''s words resurfaced in his mind once again.


    [Your strong-willed character may endanger those around you. In the future, you will go through


    another cycle in this world. True fulfilment will be achieved only when the clouds disperse and the


    moon shines bright!]


    Reincarnation...


    Benjamin used to not believe in ghosts and gods, but at this moment, he felt a sense of awe!


    He finished smoking half of his cigarette and called Paisley into the room. With a serious expression,


    he said, "I want to establish a charitable foundation! Let''s call it the Everest Foundation. I''ll invest $1


    billion in the initial stage, with a focus on caring for orphaned children."


    Paisley was somewhat surprised.


    Why did Mr. rk suddenly want to do charity?


    But she didn''t ask and quickly took note, saying, "Alright, I''ll apply for it tomorrow."


    Benjamin gestured for her to leave.


    He had no interest in work. Leaning back in his chair, he gently spun around, feeling he should do more


    to umte blessings for his wife and daughter!


    The phone on his desk rang, and it was Madelyn calling.


    Benjamin picked up the phone and spoke tenderly, "Have you chosen a wedding dress? If you have, I''ll


    pick you up this afternoon, and we can try it together."


    Madelyn chuckled lightly, "Am I really that delicate? I''ll take the driver''s car and meet you at the store.


    Ben, I picked out a gorgeous dress for Everest. I''ll send you a picture."


    Benjamin agreed.


    He hung up the phone and soon received a photo.


    It was a gorgeous fluffy skirt, specially matched with Everest''s tea-colored curls.


    Benjamin imagined taking wedding photos as a family of three. His heart softened, and he replied on


    WhatsApp, "It looks great. I''ll pick you up this afternoon, and then we''ll pick up Everest together."

 Chapter 266 Ben, Dont Do It

    Chapter 266 Ben, Don''t Do It


    Chapter 266 Ben, Don''t Do It


    At two o''clock in the afternoon, Benjamin first went to the vi to pick up Madelyn and then went to the


    kindergarten to pick up Everest.


    The kindergarten teacher smiled and said, "Everest, your mom and dad are here to pick you up!"


    Everest, wearing a small floral dress and sporting tea-colored curls, proudly dered, "My mom and


    dad are taking wedding photos, and I want to take wedding photos too!"


    Other children in the ss burst intoughter.


    The teacher chuckled and said, "Then let me take you there!"


    She held Everest''s hand and felt a fondness in her heart. She was reluctant to let her go when handing


    Everest over to Benjamin.


    Everest waved her little hand and said, "Ms. Tucker, see you tomorrow!"


    Once they got in the car, Everest couldn''t help but fix her gaze on Madelyn''s belly and asked, "Mommy,


    when will the little brothere out? If I sleep well for one night, will he be born?"


    Madelyn didn''t know how to answer.


    Benjamin fastened his seatbelt and gave a faint smile, "You have to sleep well for many nights for the


    little brother toe out!"


    Everest looked disappointed.


    But soon she perked up and said, "The kids at the kindergarten said their dads also wanted children,


    and they try hard to nt carrots every night! Daddy, did you nt carrots to make Mommy''s belly


    grow?"


    Madelyn''s cheeks turned slightly red.


    As Benjamin was about to start the car, he nced at her through the rearview mirror, his gaze meeting


    hers.


    He smiled slyly, with a hint of ambiguity.


    Madelyn''s face grew even warmer.


    Benjamin let her off the hook and lightly pressed the elerator. Meanwhile, he exined to his


    beloved little girl, "The kids didn''t get it quite right! When Everest grows up, you''ll understand!"


    Everest trusted him more.


    Benjamin focused on driving and remained silent. After all, his wife and daughter were in the car with


    him!


    Half an hourter, the car stopped in front of a high-end wedding dress store.


    The manager greeted them as soon as the car arrived and opened the door with a professional smile.


    "Mr. rk and Mrs. rk, we have cleared the ce just for you and will provide you with the best


    service."


    Benjamin nodded lightly.


    He took Everest out of the car, and the little girl was especially happy, bouncing around next to her


    mother.


    Her mother picked out a pretty little dress for her.


    The staff led them separately on the second floor to try on the selected wedding dresses.


    Benjamin quickly changed into a set of ck velvet formalwear with a white organ shirt inside.


    He looked handsome and dignified!


    Several young staff members couldn''t help but steal a nce at him.


    But Benjamin didn''t feel anything at all. He sat in the VIP area flipping through a magazine, waiting for


    Madelyn and Everest to change.


    Everest was the first toe out, wearing a light champagne-colored puffy skirt, and her tea-colored


    curly hair was tied back with a hairband. She looked extremely beautiful.


    The little girl felt a little embarrassed and jumped into her father''s arms, acting spoiled.


    The staff smiled and said, "The little girl looks really pretty! She looks like her mom!"


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Benjamin looked down at the little one he had raised with his own hands, feeling a softness in his heart.


    He took her small hand and walked to the full-length mirror. Everest looked at them in the mirror and


    thought she looked so beautiful!


    Daddy looked good too!


    Everest''s eyes sparkled, twinkling and lively.


    Benjamin smiled slightly, about to speak, when the door of one of the changing rooms opened, and


    Madelyn walked out gracefully.


    Benjamin''s breath caught.


    Even though he had seen her in countless different looks, he was still amazed at this moment.


    The pure white wedding dress fit her perfectly, hugging her slender waist before flowing into intricate


    and beautifulce at the hem.


    Her long hair was softly styled, with the pearl earrings he had given her adorning her ears.


    She looked gentle and beautiful!


    Unable to control his emotions, Benjamin gently caressed her neck and murmured, "You look


    stunning!"


    The service staff blushed a little.


    The scene before them was enough for them to imagine a thousand words...


    Madelyn blushed and whispered, "We''re not at home. Please tone it down!"


    Benjamin chuckled softly, lowering his voice, "So you mean there''s no need to hold back at home?"


    Madelyn: ...


    At that moment, the photographer approached, and everyone started working.


    Considering Madelyn''s pregnancy, Benjamin was worried about her getting tired, so he had only


    booked a two-hour session. Fortunately, both the male and female leads were good-looking, and their


    child also looked great on camera, so two hours was enough!


    After the shoot, the photographer reviewed the shots and smiled, saying, "If Mr. rk weren''t who he


    is, I would use these for an advertisement!"


    Benjamin replied with a faint smile.


    He patted Everest and gently said to Madelyn, "Go remove your makeup and change clothes. I''ll take


    you out to eat!"


    Everest loved eating out.


    She immediately ran into the changing room and took off her little dress. While waiting for Madelyn, the


    manager gave her a small ball to y with, and Everest was delighted, happily pping and ying!


    Benjamin sat on the sofa, using his phone to handle business matters.


    Everest came over, frowning, "Daddy, the ball fell inside!"


    Hmm?


    Benjamin put away his phone and walked to the door of Madelyn''s changing room, gently knocking,


    "Madelyn, Madelyn..."


    There was no response from inside.


    But there seemed to be the sound of a bouncing ball...


    Benjamin held the doorknob and twisted it, but it wouldn''t open!


    His heart sank, and he immediately blocked Everest behind him, extending his foot and kicking with


    force.


    The sturdy door shook and finally burst open with a bang!


    The moment the door opened, Benjamin almost held his breath. Two staff members were tied to chairs


    with cloth stuffed in their mouths, and Madelyn was being held hostage by Eleanor. A sharp de was


    pressed against her throat.


    Crimson blood trickled out slowly.


    Benjamin slowly uttered, "Eleanor!"


    Eleanor was wearing the uniform of this ce. She was too thin to fill the clothing, and her face looked


    withered and lifeless,pletely devoid of her former beauty.


    Eleanor''s smile was chilling.


    "Benjamin, didn''t you expect me to get out?"


    "I wanted to see you, but you refused, so I had no choice but to attempt suicide... Those idiots took me


    to the hospital, and I managed to meet you with a little effort. Surprise and unexpected, right?"


    ...


    She suddenly eximed hoarsely, "Benjamin, you are ruthless! To save your precious daughter, you


    almost drained me of blood! Do you know the pain of convulsions due to excessive blood loss? You


    wouldn''t know because you only care about this bitch and her child!"


    Everest was scared and started crying!


    Benjamin spoke in a calm voice, "Everest, go downstairs!"


    Being young, Everest cried for her mother!


    With a serious face, Benjamin''s voice was surprisingly gentle, "Be good and listen to me!"


    Everest''s little mouth trembled as she looked at her mother. Madelyn was in pain from being choked,


    but she tried to speak calmly, "Listen to your dad!"


    With teary eyes, Everest took a few steps back and ran downstairs.


    Eleanor sneered, "How touching!"


    Benjamin tightened his fists, keeping his gaze fixed on Madelyn, and then shifted his eyes to Eleanor,


    "What do you want?"


    ...


    "What do I want?" Eleanorughed maniacally.


    She locked eyes with Benjamin, suddenly showing a hint of affection, "I want to go back to how things


    used to be! Ben... I regret what I did during that absurd period. Can you forgive me? As long as you


    forgive and reconcile with me, I''ll let her go!"


    Benjamin''s expression remained nk, "Fine, I forgive you!"


    Eleanor tilted her head and giggled...


    Suddenly, her voice turned menacing once again, "You''re lying to me! You just want to save this bitch!"


    As she spoke, she tightened her grip on the de.


    The blood flowed like a thin stream, staining the pure white wedding dress red...


    Madelyn''s delicate throat tensed.


    She dared not breathe, knowing that another inch closer would mean certain death. She didn''t dare call


    out to Benjamin, fearing it would provoke Eleanor even further!


    Eleanor suddenlyughed again, "Actually, I don''t want to kill her! If I kill her, you will remember her for


    the rest of your life!"


    She pulled out a syringe from her pocket.


    Inside, there was a yellowed solution.


    She threw it at Benjamin''s feet and coldly said, "Benjamin, I''ll give you a chance! Inject this into your


    body, and I''ll let her go!... This is a good thing. Once you take the shot, it will end my pain! Because you


    will slowly and gradually forget about Madelyn and your unforgettable memories!"


    After finishing her words, sheughed crazily.


    Madelyn couldn''t bear it any longer. She struggled and shouted at him, "Ben... Don''t! You''re not allowed


    to do it. You''re not allowed!"


    She wasn''t afraid of him forgetting about her.


    She was afraid that this would cost Benjamin his life!


    Benjamin''s throat moved, and he stared at Madelyn, speaking in a deep voice, "Don''t move!"


    He needed to buy some time now.


    Eleanor had gone insane. Anything that provoked her could directly end Madelyn''s life. He loved


    Madelyn and their child. Madelyn couldn''t be harmed, even if it meant sacrificing himself!


    He bent down and picked up the syringe, his handsome face resolute, "I''ll do it!"


    Tears streamed down Madelyn''s face, "Ben, don''t..."


    Eleanor''s face twisted in excitement as she stared at Benjamin, "Right now, or else I''ll take her life right


    away! One, two, three..."


    Benjamin took off his jacket and rolled up his shirt sleeves.


    His arms had beautiful and strong lines. They had embraced Madelyn countless nights, but now... The


    thin needle pierced into his flesh, and the pale yellow liquid slowly injected.


    Everything seemed to freeze in ce.


    In his world, there were only Madelyn''s teary eyes.


    Madelyn, I''m sorry. I always make you sad!


    Madelyn, stop crying. Your tears hurt my heart. It''s nothingpared to the pain I''ve caused you. At


    least it doesn''t hurt much!


    Madelyn, that Fletcher Donald said I have weak blood ties, and I actually believed it! I feel uneasy... but


    I didn''t expect our separation toe so quickly!


    Madelyn, if I really have a chance to reincarnate, I will definitelye back to find you!


    Madelyn, don''t cry!


    Madelyn, I can''t speak, but I think you know...


    I love you!


    ...


    His vision blurred.


    Benjamin saw across the building, pitch ck. Then, a muffled sound was heard...


    Eleanor had her head blown up!


    At the entrance, police slowly surrounded...


    Eleanor fell in a pool of blood, her eyes wide open, and even a hint of a strange smile on her lips.


    Madelyn, if I couldn''t have Benjamin, you can''t have him, either!


    ...


    Madelyn stood there, covered in blood.


    Benjamin threw the syringe away and walked towards her, embracing her tightly, his strength almost


    hurting her!


    "I''m fine! Ben... I''m fine!"


    Madelyn raised his arm and asked, "How do you feel? We need to go to the hospital immediately!"


    Benjamin closed his eyes slightly and whispered, "Okay!"


    On the first floor, Everest saw them and immediately rushed over, sobbing and calling out for Mommy


    and Daddy. Benjamin picked her up, his voice hoarse yet gentle, "It''s okay! Everest, it''s okay!"


    Everest cried loudly!


    Mommy was covered in blood. She was scared and heartbroken...


    Alexander and his wife also rushed over.


    Benjamin handed his wife and daughter to Brianna, and he followed Alexander to the top hospital in


    Gredax. Madelyn initially wanted to go with them, but Benjamin insisted on asking her to stay with


    Everest.


    In the car, Alexander noticed something was wrong and asked.


    Benjamin leaned back in his seat and said softly, "Eleanor somehow got hold of a syringe. It can cause


    nerve damage."


    Alexander''s voice trembled, "Did you inject yourself?"


    Benjamin didn''t answer, silently staring at his father.


    He loved his wife but didn''t do much for his parents!


    Alexander''s heart was torn apart. He wished he could tear Eleanor into pieces. But at this moment, the


    most important thing was to go to the hospital and check Benjamin''s condition.


    The driver sped, and they arrived at the hospital quickly.


    Benjamin had his blood drawn and underwent tests.


    After the results came out, the doctor looked at the report with aplex expression and said to


    Alexander, "Alexander, can we talk privately?"


    In private, Alexander took a deep drag of his cigarette.


    He said, "Let Ben listen to it! He deserves to be prepared, whether it''s good or bad!"


    The doctor remained silent for a moment.


    He pointed to theb report and said, "This is a new type of illegal agent from Monatiz. It''s not lethal but


    damages the nerves, causing memory loss and migraines. As for the extent, we still need to observe!"


    Alexander closed his eyes and asked, "Is there a way to save him?"


    The doctor stared at him and shook his head slowly!


    Alexander looked up, tears swirling in his eyes.


    He had always been strong, rarely shedding tears. The only time he cried was when Everest was born!


    Now, his son was in trouble, and perhaps in the future, he wouldn''t remember his parents, wife and


    children. How could he not be heartbroken?


    Compared to his sadness, Benjamin was much calmer.


    He remembered Fletcher Donald''s words again-


    [Weak blood ties require another reincarnation in the world.]


    Benjamin said softly, "Dad, I want to see Madelyn!"


    If it was destined to forget everything, then while he still remembered, he wanted to love her


    wholeheartedly... There were so many things he needed to tell her!


    Even if he had to start over, he wouldn''t allow her to give up!


    No matter what he became, Benjamin belonged to Madelyn!

 Chapter 267 He Stubbornly Stayed by Her Side

    Chapter 267 He Stubbornly Stayed by Her Side


    Chapter 267 He Stubbornly Stayed by Her Side


    Night fell.


    The vi was brightly lit, the hall filled with light.


    Madelyn hadn''t forgotten that she was Everest''s mother. She was tormented inside, but she remained


    gentle and patient with Everest.


    Everest was frightened, leaning against her leg and asking pitifully, "When will Daddye back?"


    Madelyn caressed her face, about to speak, when the sound of a car came from the entrance.


    Immediately, she took Everest''s hand and walked out, filled with unprecedented anxiety.


    Benjamin stepped out of the car, his gaze locking with hers.


    Their eyes met, and neither could look away.


    After a while, Benjamin slowly approached, gently lifting Everest and giving her a kiss. But his words


    were meant for Madelyn: "I''m fine, don''t scare Everest!"


    Madelyn''s eyes welled up with tears, still watching him intently.


    Benjamin lightly embraced her shoulder, their foreheads touching. "I''m really fine! Madelyn, I''vee


    back well!"


    Madelyn''s lips trembled.


    She knew she should restrain herself but couldn''t help leaning against his shoulder, silently crying. His


    shirt became damp, ufortable with the warmth.


    ...


    "Madelyn!" He gently patted her as if soothing a child.


    ...


    At that moment, Alexander walked over, signaling for a servant to take Everest away!


    He had always cherished Madelyn, but with such an incident happening at home and Eloise being


    unreliable, Madelyn needed to grow up to be able to handle things for Ben!


    Alexander softly said, "From now on, everything in and out of the house will rely on you!"

    Benjamin couldn''t bear it.


    But he knew better than anyone that he had to let go even if he didn''t want to!


    Father was getting old and wouldn''t be able to hold on forever.


    Madelyn was the only hope for this family!


    Benjamin couldn''t bear to push her too hard and gently touched Madelyn''s cheek, saying hoarsely,


    "Let''s talk about itter!"


    Madelyn, however, calmed down.


    She took his hand and whispered, "Go check on Mom. She''s been in the kitchen all this time. I know


    she''s been crying secretly!"


    Benjamin grunted in agreement.


    He changed into a fresh set of clothes and walked into the kitchen.


    Brianna stood in front of the stove, quietly wiping away her tears.


    Benjamin approached her and gently pressed down on her shoulder, tenderly saying, "Mom! I''m fine,


    aren''t I?"


    Brianna was truly heartbroken.


    She regretted severing ties with the Bet family before. If they hadn''t, Benjamin wouldn''t have had


    that period with Eleanor, and things wouldn''t have turned out like this...


    He and Madelyn were just about to start their happy life together.


    They had just had a child again!


    ...


    They numbly finished the dinner.


    In the end, Benjamin still let his parents go back early.


    It waste at night.


    Madelyny on the bed in the master bedroom with Everest nestled in her arms, soothing the little one


    to sleep.


    Perhaps frightened, Everest woke up several times.


    Benjamin smoked two cigarettes in the study before returning to the bedroom. As he closed the door,


    he whispered, "Is she asleep?"


    "Yes!"


    He walked over andy behind her with his clothes on, gently holding her slender waist.


    Madelyn trembled slightly.


    She closed her eyes a little and felt his warmth.


    Benjamin began kissing her neck, loving her like before, but their hearts were still filled with sadness.


    No one knew what would happen tomorrow!


    Their love couldn''t continue...


    Benjamin pressed against Madelyn''s ear and said in a hoarse voice, "Madelyn, don''t be afraid!"


    Madelyn suddenly turned her body and hugged him tightly.


    Her body was soft, clinging to his strong body like a vine clinging to a sturdy branch, dependent on


    each other...


    Benjamin lowered his head to kiss her, broken and intermittent kisses, full of sorrow.


    He was rarely vulnerable, but he was willing to expose himself in front of his wife. On this gentle and


    sad night, he begged her not to let him go...


    "I won''t, I won''t!" she choked.


    Benjamin held her slender body in his arms, his lips next to her ear. "Madelyn, say that you are mine...


    Say it to me, okay?"


    Madelyn tilted her head back in his embrace.


    Her eyes were filled with tears, but she bravely told him, "Ben, I''m yours! And you''re mine too! This


    time, I won''t give you up to anyone!"


    Benjamin slightly closed his eyes. "Mrs. rk is really domineering!"


    He wanted to act as if everything was normal, but his trembling voice betrayed his innermost feelings!


    He was afraid...


    He was afraid of forgetting his wife and children.


    He was afraid that his Everest wouldn''t have her father to care for her.


    He was even more afraid that his beloved wife would have to work hard to care for their two children


    and manage their vast business empire.


    ...


    The news of the trouble at Everest Group waspletely blocked off.


    Benjamin worked from home while Paisley shuttled back and forth. After a few days, Benjamin didn''t


    feel ufortable except for asional dizziness.


    He couldn''t help but think that maybe the doctor got it wrong -


    The medication wasn''t as powerful as they thought!


    He wouldn''t lose his memory of Madelyn, and he wouldn''t forget his Everest!


    One early morning a weekter, Benjamin came back from his jog with a fresh long-stemmed rose in


    hand, a gift for Madelyn.


    It was only 7 o''clock, and she was still asleep!


    Benjamin tiptoed inside, bending down to gaze at her sleeping face. His heart softened.


    He ced the rose by her pillow and couldn''t resist kissing her.


    So gentle, so soft!


    He stood up smiling but suddenly felt dizzy, and his mind went nk. For a moment, he couldn''t even


    remember Madelyn''s name.


    All he knew was that she was his lover!


    Benjamin sat down weakly against the headboard, trying to restrain himself from making any sound!


    When he left the bedroom, he stumbled and staggered...


    He pushed the study open and reached into a drawer to retrieve a medication bottle. His hands


    trembled as he unscrewed the cap and swallowed a pill. He slowly calmed himself down.


    He sat alone in the study, lost in his thoughts.


    He knew that he was starting to forget things - forgetting Madelyn and everything they had once


    shared!


    He couldn''t ept it. He wanted to hold onto these memories.


    Benjamin started writing in his diary, spending all day in the study, meticulously recording every detail


    of his past with Madelyn.


    "She is my beloved, Madelyn!"


    "She loves ying the piano and wearing clothes from xx brand."


    "Every day, I would bring her roses."


    "Our first child is named Everest, a precious gift from Madelyn! Everest has health issues, coagtion


    disorders, and an Rh-negative blood type..."


    "Madelyn is pregnant again, already over six weeks! I must take care of her."


    "Madelyn can''t drive."


    "When Madelyn hugs me, it means she wants me to kiss her. At that moment, no matter how important


    things are, I have to put them aside and give her a kiss. She may be a young girl, but she is already the


    mother of our two children. Madelyn likes it when I call her ''little mommy''!"


    ...


    After three days, Benjamin had written a thick volume.


    Every night, he sat quietly, reading it over and over again, trying to retain the memories.


    But some of them were already blurred!


    Outside, Madelyn entered the room, carrying a fruit tray.


    In the instant the door opened, she caught sight of the diary. Although he quickly put it away, Madelyn


    still figured it out.


    These days, Benjamin didn''t go to thepany.


    He relied on Paisley.


    Even when he asionally went out, he never drove! He was actually forgetting things but stubbornly


    trying to keep himself by her side.

    Chapter 268 This Is Our Wedding Night


    Madelyn''s heart was trembling.


    She used all her strength to prevent herself from crying. She walked inside as though nothing had


    happened.


    Benjamin put the diary away.


    He gently touched the drawer with his slender fingers. When he looked up, he asked with tender eyes,


    "Is Everest asleep?"


    Madelyn ced the te of fruit down and sat in hisp. She ced his hand on her belly and replied,


    "Yes, she''s asleep. This little one is waiting for you."


    Benjamin''s hand gently massaged her belly, trying to feel the movement of their unborn child.


    Unfortunately, the baby was still too little to make any noticeable movements.


    Otherwise, he could at least feel the kicking of their little baby.


    He leaned in closer, his nose brushing against hers. With an intimate atmosphere between them, he


    teased her, "Is it the baby missing me, or do you want to sleep with me tonight?"


    Madelyn put her arms around his neck.


    She was wearing only a thin silk nightgown. In the past, he would have enjoyed sexual pleasure, but


    now she was pregnant, and he had had something else on his mind.


    Benjamin only kissed her tenderly.


    His hands moved around her body.


    Finally, he pressed his forehead against hers and said in a breathy voice, "Madelyn, wouldn''t it be


    wonderful if this moment could be forever? It would be a happy ending."


    Tears welled up in Madelyn''s eyes, and she gently pressed her finger against his lips, saying, "Ben,


    we''re not married yet! How can we call it an end?"


    Benjamin looked at her with deep eyes.


    He stared at her for a long while before he spoke in a husky voice, "Let''s get married tomorrow.


    Madelyn, just the two of us. Will that be okay?"


    Madelyn said yes in a hoarse voice.


    ...


    Early the next morning...


    Benjamin didn''t go for his morning run as usual. Instead, he made a phone call to Paisley and told her


    to prepare some documents.


    Paisley arrived in the afternoon, and a maid led her to the study on the second floor.


    Paisley had mixed feelings but managed to put on a professional smile. She said, "Mr. rk, I''ve


    prepared all the documents."


    Benjamin nodded and took over the stack of documents.


    It was a thick pile of papers, and they were the equity transfer agreement of Everest Group.


    Benjamin nned to transfer all 65% of Everest Group''s shares under his name to his wife Madelyn. It


    would be effective immediately upon her signature on the share transfer documents and


    subsequent notarization by awyer.


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin carefully reviewed the documents.


    Then he handed them over to Madelyn and said softly, "While the rk Group is likely to be passed on


    to our children in the future, Everest Group is my gift to you. I''ll involve professional managers in its


    operations, and Paisley will assist too...Madelyn, you can run thepany by yourself!"


    He probably couldn''t be with her till the end.


    And providing her with financial security was a husband''s obligation.


    Moreover, with these assets...


    Madelyn wouldn''t have to feel inferior after he lost his memory. If he ever broke her heart, she could


    make him penniless after divorce...


    Madelyn said with trembling lips, "Aren''t we nning to get married? Benjamin, I don''t want anything


    except you!"


    However, there were some things he needed to tell her.


    Benjamin gently stroked her head and said with a gentle smile, "So, that''s your dowry!"


    He was worried that he might treat her bad in the future.


    That was why, while he was still in his right mind...


    He''d given her everything he had!


    Though they were nning to get married, Madelyn felt so sad and couldn''t help crying!


    Paisley quietly left the room.


    Outside the door, she couldn''t help but shed tears for Mr. rk and Madelyn.


    In the study...


    Madelyn stood by the floor-to-ceiling window and was still reluctant to sign the papers.


    Benjamin knew what she was thinking. He walked over, hugged her from behind, and rested his chin


    on her shoulder. He said in a low voice, "Don''t cry. Everything will be okay."


    Madelyn couldn''t hold back her tears; she was still grieving.


    Benjamin gently wiped away her tears as he joked in whispers, "Silly girl! Now that you''re Ms. Green of


    Everest Group, I can see you wherever I go! Madelyn, do you think I can runaway from you?"


    Madelyn turned in his arms and nestled herself in his embrace.


    His shirt was dampened by her tears...


    It felt very ufortable.


    She took over as the new CEO of Everest Group, apany valued at over 27.4 billion dors, in


    ce of Benjamin.


    They had a private wedding ceremony.


    It was held in a small church. On the altar, there was a Bible and a pair of wedding rings.


    Benjamin wore a white shirt paired with a ck velvet tuxedo.


    The outfit that Madelyn loved most!


    Madelyn was less than two months pregnant, so her belly didn''t grow big. She chose a simple-


    designed waist cinching wedding gown. Her long, chestnut hair flowed down to her waist, which made


    her look charming.


    They exchanged wedding rings and put them onto each other''s fingers.


    Holding hands with their fingers inteced, Benjamin looked into Madelyn''s eyes and vowed, "I promise


    to stay faithful to our marriage, and I''ll never leave you."


    Tears welled up in Madelyn''s eyes.


    She looked up at her husband and softly said, "I vow to cherish our love, and we''ll never be apart, no


    matter where we are."


    Benjamin leaned in, hugged her and kissed her...


    It was their wedding night, and they returned to the apartment where everything began...


    In the master bedroom, rose petals were all over the floor.


    Benjamin held Madelyn in his arms and gently ced her onto the soft bed.


    It was on this bed that they made love for the first time.


    On this bed, they had sex countless times. If tomorrow was the end of the world, what Benjamin


    wanted to do most was to take Madelyn back to the ce where their rtionship began...


    And make love with her...


    He always took caution that she was pregnant now.


    He whispered against her ear, "Madelyn, I want to make you happy, is that okay?"


    Madelyn''s body trembled slightly.


    She closed her eyes, tears dripping down her face, but she still slowly took off her bathrobe.


    She opened herself up for him...


    ...


    It waste at night when they returned to their vi.


    Madelyn, who was exhausted, fell into a slumber, but Everest was awake...


    She was always a sensitive child, andtely, she could feel the tension in their home. Though feeling


    nervous, she was considerate and didn''t bother her parents.


    The little girly awake with her eyes open.


    Benjamin wrapped her in a small nket, carried her to the living room, and gently put her to bed.


    The room was bathed in warm, yellow light.


    Everesty on her father''sp with her eyes closed, as he read her stories. She knew all those stories


    by heart, but she simply loved it when her father read to her.


    Benjamin read while gently stroking her curly hair.


    He suddenly spoke, "Everest, Daddy might have to go on a business trip."


    Everest slowly opened her eyes...


    Benjamin''s fingers lingered in her hair, and his voice became deeper and huskier. "I may have to go


    some ce very far away and for a long time. Everest, will you help Mommy take care of your little


    brother?"


    Everest didn''t make a response.


    After a while, she asked softly, "Daddy, is it cold there?"


    Benjamin smiled gently and replied, "Yes, it''s a bit cold."


    Everest said in a nasal voice, "Then, Daddy, bring more clothes so you won''t feel cold. Everest can visit


    Daddy on vacations. Everest''s body is warm, and if Everest hugs Daddy... Daddy won''t be cold


    anymore."


    Benjamin''s throat tightened.


    He bent down to kiss his little girl. He loved her so much!


    His daughter was so smart and adorable.


    He couldn''t bear to leave her. He kissed her while calling her name, "Everest... Everest..."


    Everest was in tears.


    Shey in his embrace and asked in a low voice, "How long will Daddy be gone?"


    Benjamin held her and fell silent for a moment before replying, "Daddy doesn''t know. It might be three


    years, five years...or perhaps I will be back when Everest grows up!"


    Everest didn''t cry.


    She hugged her Daddy back and tried to feel the warmth from his embrace...

 Chapter 269 Plan Everything for His Wife and Daughter

    Chapter 269 n Everything for His Wife and Daughter


    Chapter 269 n Everything for His Wife and Daughter


    Three dayster...


    Keh came here from Vadiff. As his car was stopped, the chauffeur opened the door for him.


    Keh found himself feeling sad.


    Once skeptical of Benjamin, Keh could tell that Ben genuinely loved Madelyn over the years...


    Now, with Ben''s health issues, he still made arrangements for his wife and daughter whenever he still


    had a clear head.


    Keh felt sorry for them.


    For both Benjamin and Madelyn!


    After walking into the mansion, he spotted Benjamin who was sitting on a couch, seemingly absorbed


    in an old newspaper.


    Keh walked to him and asked, "Is Madelyn out?"


    Benjamin looked up and appeared somewhat surprised. He stood up and replied, "She''s gone to


    Everest Group to handle something."


    Keh understood that Benjamin had given Everest Group to Madelyn.


    He didn''t how to react.


    Finally, he said, "Alright, I actually have something important to discuss with you."


    Given that he came =so suddenly, Benjamin inferred that he was here for something significant. He


    said with a smile, "Let''s go to the study on the second floor."


    They went to the study upstairs.


    Keh took a seat and began to smoke. He looked up and asked, "How have you been?"


    Benjamin was making coffee.


    Hearing this, he paused and replied in a low voice, "Not so well!"


    Then he handed a cup of coffee to Keh and sat down across from him.


    Keh was feeling restless and put out his cigarette.


    He looked at Benjamin and said cautiously, "I''ve got some new! Eleanor managed to obtain that


    medication probaly from her ex-husband! Surveince footage shows that her producer ex-husband


    had contact with her while they were in the hospital... They brought him in for questioning, but he''s


    quite cunning and there was no concrete evidence. Because o his special status, they had no choice


    but to release him."


    Benjamin sipped coffee slowly.


    Keh continued, "After their divorce, I heard he struggled to make a living in Monatiz and has now


    worked as a producer since he came back. He certainly has a motive! But don''t worry, I''ll keep a close


    eye on him."


    Benjamin nodded.


    They were sitting and drinking coffee...


    After a long while, Benjamin ced a medical record on the coffee table.


    Keh picked it up, and the more he read, the more shocked he was!


    Looking at Benjamin, Keh felt astonished. Benjamin felt helpless and said with a faint smile,


    "Keh, my memory of Madelyn is fading with each passing day. There are moments when I even


    forget who Everest is when I look at her..."


    Keh lit another cigarette.


    Suddenly, Benjamin got up and knelt before Keh.


    Keh''s fingers nearly got burnt by the cigarette he was holding and rushed to help Benjamin up. He


    asked, "Ben, what are you doing? Don''t put me in such a difficult position! A man should have dignity


    and not kneel down and beg.


    Are you doing this to make me embarrassed?"


    Benjamin refused to stand up.


    He said in a low and hoarse voice, "My father is getting older. Though Madelyn is smart and capable,


    she''s still a woman who has two children to care for. Keh, I implore you to take care of not just


    Madelyn and her children but also Eloise... For any important decisions to make, I''m asking you to help


    them."


    Keh didn''t like to hear these words at all.


    He frowned and asked, "Ben, I''m telling you that don''t even think about burdening me with your entire


    family! You... you''ve forgotten everything and are living a carefree life. But what about Madelyn? What


    about the children?"


    Benjamin gazed deeply into Keh''s eyes.


    He forced a bitter smile and replied, "Keh, I used to tell Madelyn not to give up on me and to


    remember to find me! But, Keh, who can predict the future? I... I just want her to have hopes.


    When a person is desperate, life bes incredibly bleak!"


    Moreover, Madelyn had postpartum depression before.


    Now she was pregnant again.


    Benjamin could only do his best to ensure his wife and children were well cared for while he could still


    remember them.


    Keh felt even more upset after hearing these words.


    He silently finished his cigarette, patted Benjamin on the shoulder and said, "Ben, I promise you!"


    He was getting a little choked up as he continued, "Don''t be away for too long. Remember toe


    back early. Madelyn and the children are waiting for you, and so are we!"


    Benjamin gave a faint smile.


    After sitting for a while, Keh left the room and ran into Eloise on the staircase.


    Eloise was carrying a tray of food.


    It looked quite tasty.


    Keh paused for a moment and looked at her. Then he took out a cigarette from his pocket and


    asked, "You''ve learned to cook?"


    Eloise nodded and said, "I''m trying, but it doesn''t taste so good."


    Keh gave a light smile.


    Seeing the tears in his eyes, Eloise felt sad and momentarily forgot their past. She sincerely said,


    "Thank you for visiting Benjamin."


    Keh''s smile faded...


    He gazed at the girl he had once loved, feeling a mix of emotions.


    He had thought his own life was difficult enough, butpared to Benjamin''s, it didn''t seem... not so


    bad after all.


    Keh had business to attend to and had to leave.


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    He put the cigarette between his lips and gently ruffled her hair. He said, "I''m leaving. If you need


    anything, call me."


    Eloise nodded.


    Keh looked at her for a moment, then withdrew his hand and slowly walked down the stairs.


    As he got to the ground floor, he suddenly turned back and asked, "How do you get along with...that


    person?"


    Eloise remained silent for a moment.


    She replied in a bitter tone, "We couldn''t get along, so we broke up!" After saying these words, she


    went back upstairs.


    Keh watched her go away.


    Although he should have been happy that her blind date hadn''t gone well, he couldn''t feel that way. He


    knew all too well that without their past rtionship and Emerson, finding a suitable partner would have


    been easy for her.


    Ultimately, it was he who had held her back.


    ...


    In the evening, Madelyn finally returned home.


    She found Benjamin in the study.


    He was going through his diary, but when he saw Madelyn walk in, he put it back in the drawer as he


    had done before.


    Madelyn didn''t press further.


    She walked up to him and gently hugged him. She asked, "Did Kehe over today?"


    Benjamin said yes.


    He wanted to share with Madelyn what Keh had told him, but as he attempted to speak, his


    thoughts suddenly grew foggy.


    Seeing his perplexed expression, Madelyn''s heart sank.


    She was well aware of his memorypses, and his brain had been a mess...


    She didn''t want to see him struggling to remember.


    Madelyn gently took his hand and ced it on her belly, murmuring, "Eloise will be with Everest tonight.


    Ben, how about we take a stroll in the garden?"


    He had confined himself to the house for several days now.


    She understood that he was afraid of forgetting his way back home if he went outside.


    Madelyn felt conflicted and anguished. She thought that she had be a source of constraint in his


    life, and if it weren''t for her, Benjamin wouldn''t have to endure such hardships.


    In the courtyard, she tightly held his hand, cherishing thest warm moment with him.


    She stared at her husband under the moonlight.


    He was still handsome.


    But now and then, the way he looked at her seemed distant and strange.


    He had started avoiding her, andter, Madelyn found a note in his pocket, with a few words written on


    it as a reminder to himself.


    [Go to the basement, and stay there until you remember Madelyn!]


    Upon seeing that note, Madelyn wept for a long time.


    She thought to herself that perhaps she shouldn''t keep him by her side any longer. He was not happy


    around her...


    But without his memories of her, he was still Benjamin.


    At night, with tears in her eyes, Madelyn drifted off to sleep.


    In the early morning, she woke up to find a white rose ced by her pillow, fresh glistening with fresh


    dew as always. She felt sweet in her heart, and she softly called his name, "Ben..."


    It was silent in the bedroom.


    Madelyn had a bad feeling. She even had no time to put on her shoes and just rushed downstairs.


    "Ben... Ben..."


    "Benjamin!"

 Chapter 270 Ben, I Think I Should Set You Free

    Chapter 270 Ben, I Think I Should Set You Free


    Chapter 270 Ben, I Think I Should Set You Free


    With her hair down, Madelyn hurried downstairs!


    She looked everywhere for him in the vi, including the basement, but there was no sign of him.


    Where had Benjamin gone?


    Just when Madelyn felt utterly lost and distressed, a tall figure walked in from outside, with his back to


    the light. She couldn¡¯t see his face clearly. Nevertheless, Madelyn knew it was him.


    "Ben!" She threw herself into his arms.


    Benjamin held her close with one arm and gently nuzzled her neck, asking, "What''s wrong?"


    Madelyn buried her face in his chest and replied, "Ben, I was so scared! I feared that if you left, you''d


    nevere back!"


    "Silly girl, that could never happen."


    "Don''t cry; it breaks my heart to see you crying."


    He guided her to sit down and ced a bag of breakfast on the table.


    Madelyn felt somewhat surprised. Had he gone to buy breakfast?


    Benjamin lightly stroked her cool cheek and said with a gentle smile, "You haven''t had much of an


    appetitetely. The bread pudding used to be your favorite for breakfast. Go and have some."


    He served the pudding for Madelyn.


    She scooped up a spoon and put it in her mouth.


    It tasted salty.


    Just like the taste of tears!


    Benjamin sat beside her and watched her eat.


    After she ate half of the bread pudding, he said, "Madelyn, I''ve contacted a high-end rehabilitation


    hospital with excellent facilities. I want to go there for treatment."


    The spoon in Madelyn''s hand fell to the table...


    Benjamin wanted to pick it up for her, but she was a step ahead. She quickly picked up the spoon and


    wiped it with a tissue.


    Benjamin gazed at her quietly.


    He knew she couldn''t ept this, but it was the best choice.


    He was gradually forgetting, and the time he could remember her and Everest each day was not much


    now. When hepletely forgot about them, he wouldn''t have any feelings for them anymore!


    Their interactions would be horrible!


    Everest had autism, and he couldn''t risk frightening her.


    He gently exined andforted her, "Madelyn, perhaps through treatment, I can recover my lost


    memories."


    Madelyn''s lips were quivering...


    She knew deep down that if the situation weren''t so hopeless, he wouldn''t have made this choice.


    Because Everest was everything to him!


    Madelyn had been crying. Benjamin couldn''t bear to hear her sobbing any longer and held her in his


    arms. He said, "Please don''t cry. When you cry, the baby inside you cries too."


    Madelyn clutched his shirt tightly when she was in his arms!


    ...


    In the afternoon, Benjamin locked himself away once more.


    Madelyn stood at the entrance to the basement, her fingers touching the heavy door.


    She didn''t dare to go in.


    She feared seeing him looking at her as if she was a stranger to him or him reading the diary again and


    again, just to spend a bit more time with her.


    She knew that Benjamin was in a lot of pain.


    He often suffered from migraines.


    Was it only when he forgot her that he wouldn¡¯t feel any pain anymore?


    Quietly, Madelyn left. She asked the driver to get the car ready.


    The servant asked carefully, "Do I need to deliver some food to Mr. rk?"When Madelyn was about to


    get on the car, she heard such a question and replied with lowered eyes. "The food is adequate inside.


    Just leave him alone."She thought that someone as proud as Benjamin would never want others to see


    him like this!


    After saying that, Madelyn got into the car, and the driver asked, "Mrs. rk, where are you going?"


    "SouthHill Sanatorium."


    The driver didn''t say anything else and just drove silently. These employees who had worked for the


    rk family for many years kept their mouths shut, and they all felt sad for Benjamin and Madelyn.


    Half an hourter, the car pulled into SouthHill Sanatorium. Madelyn met with the renowned doctor.


    When she came back and sat in the car, she couldn¡¯t stop sobbing.


    She kept thinking about the doctor''s words...


    "If I''m not mistaken, Ben''s memories have stopped at five years ago. While he has lost part of his


    memory, he can still live and work normally... If we attempt to forcibly awaken his memories, not only


    will it be ineffective, but it will also cause him great pain. In fact, he has tried it before...He was in great


    agony at the time."


    "Mrs. rk, please think about it carefully!"


    ...


    Ben had tried this before. How much pain did he go through...at the time?


    Madelyn closed her eyes.


    Her sadness was beyond words.


    The driver didn¡¯t say anything and just handed tissues to Madelyn, offering herfort silently...


    Madelyn didn¡¯t go home.


    Instead, she went to Everest Group and walked into Benjamin''s former office. She touched everything


    in his office.


    Sasha brought a cup of coffee.


    Madelyn turned to her and said, "Could you please ask Paisley toe here?"


    Sasha nodded with a smile. "Of course, Ms. Green!"


    She left, and shortly after, Paisley entered the office.


    Benjamin wasn''t here. She had been really busy and carried a stack of documents with her. She said,


    "Ms. Green, these are the documents that need you to sign."


    Madelyn gestured for her to put them down.


    Paisley, though a bit confused, put them on the table.


    Madelyn told her to take a seat, and after a long while she asked, "What kind of person was Ben


    before?"


    In fact, she had known what he was like since they met the first time.


    However, she still wanted to hear from Paisley, someone who had worked for him for many years.


    Paisley was somewhat surprised.


    Then she smiled, thinking about the past as she told Madelyn how Benjamin had established Bravo


    Legal Firm after graduating and how he had won his firstwsuit. She also told her that he used to be


    proud and distant to everyone around him!


    Paisley talked for a long time. Finally, she said with an embarrassed smile, "Madelyn, I''ve talked too


    much."


    But Madelyn spoke gently, "I enjoy listening."


    Paisley felt quite moved.


    Having worked as awyer for many years, she had seen many couples split up, and she had


    witnessed numerous fights over property...


    She could sense that Madelyn and Mr. rk were deeply in love.


    As Paisley was unsure of what to say next, Madelyn had already stood up and said, "Please prepare a


    press conference for me. I have something to announce."


    Paisley realized what was happening.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Madelyn''s expression remained calm, but she looked determined after deep contemtion.


    After being lost in thought for a while, Paisley nodded and said, "Okay, Ms. Green. I''ll take care of that


    right away."


    The office door was closed.


    Madelyn entered the lounge area. She opened the closet where there was a row of suits and shirts


    of Benjamin. Among them, she found a white women''s suit of Fashionholic.


    Madelyn changed into the suit and put on a pair of high heels.


    As she stood before the mirror, she carefully tied up her hair and put on a little makeup.


    She did everything slowly and recalled the words of Fletcher, who had mentioned that Ben would need


    to experience a circle of life in this world...


    If she couldn¡¯t hold onto Ben...


    If Ben was destined to have a better life, then she would set him free. She would wait for him toe


    back...


    ...


    An hourter, Madelyn showed up in front of cameras for the first time as the CEO of Everest Group.


    Madelyn was the daughter-inw of a prominent family.


    However, she was dressed in professional attire, without extravagant jewelry on her.


    She was only wearing a pair of delicate pearl earrings.


    Because Benjamin sent it to her as a gift.


    In front of the microphones and countless cameras, she spoke with a light yet resolute tone, "My


    husband, Benjamin, is embarking on a new career path. As a result, I will be taking on the role of


    Everest Group¡¯s CEO. In the future, I will work alongside 4,500 employees of Everest Group to strive


    for sess."


    The media was in an uproar.


    There had been rumors that Benjamin''s health was declining, and he was unable to work, leading to a


    drop in Everest Group''s stock price.


    However, Ms. Green held a press conference today.


    She confirmed that Everest Group was still under the control of the rk family.


    On that day, Everest Group''s stock price began to recover from its recent lows...

    Chapter 271 He Feels the Baby Move for the First Time!


    The night began to fall.


    A ck SUV slowly drove into the vi and pulled over. The driver opened the door for Madelyn.


    A servant approached her and said, "Mr. rk is in the study."


    Madelyn nodded and made her way up to the second floor. She pushed open the study door...


    Benjamin sat behind the desk, and the dim light cast shadows shadows upon his profile. He looked


    handsome and charming. On theputer in front of him, a video was yed. It was about Madelyn''s


    press conference.


    He had been watching it repeatedly throughout the afternoon.


    Next to his handy the diary.


    As Madelyn entered, he raised his eyes and stared at her. She was still dressed in the same white


    outfit, looking confident and elegant.


    Benjamin extended his hand toward her.


    She moved closer and leaned gently against him without saying a word.


    He removed the scrunchie from her hair and took off her high heels.


    Burying his face in her hair, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you tired?"


    Tears welled up in Madelyn''s eyes.


    She shook her head and hugged him quietly for a long while. Finally, she whispered, "Ben, just go to


    the rehabilitation center."


    Benjamin''s body tensed.


    Madelyn kissed his neck and murmured, "It''ll be easier for you there. You won''t have to constantly force


    yourself to remember me or Everest, and you won''t have to endure as much pain!... Ben, when you


    remember us, just give us a call, and Everest and I wille to see you!"


    Her voice quivered.


    Because she knew that the days when he could remember her were numbered!


    Benjamin was agonized and closed his eyes.


    Madelyn sobbed as she spoke, "Benjamin, take this opportunity while I haven''t changed my mind..."


    She stood up suddenly, pushed him to the back of the chair, and then took off his belt...


    Benjamin said in a hoarse voice, "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn kissed him.


    She knew what he liked best.


    Things that she was unwilling to do before, she would do for him now. She wanted him to remember


    how he felt at this moment.


    She wanted to leave marks on his body. She wanted him to remember the ecstasy of this moment even


    if he forgot her...


    It was love to the deepest.


    Benjamin''s fingers grasped the armrest tightly. He lowered his head and stared at the woman in his


    arms with wet eyes. He couldn''t help but pull her over for a kiss and said, "That''s enough,


    Madelyn...that''s enough..."


    She said in a trembling voice, "Benjamin, you are mine, and all of you are mine!"


    ...


    Benjamin moved into the high-end rehabilitation center.


    He took the diary with him.


    At first, the doctors had given him a bracelet, which was a tracking device.


    But Madelyn had taken it off, for she wanted to free him from his restraints. Benjamin wouldn''t get lost;


    the worst-case scenario was that he forgot to return home.


    asionally, he would remember her.


    He might miss her once a week, ten days, or even half a month...


    He would call her, say sweet things to her, and tell her that he was eager to meet her.


    No matter how busy Madelyn was, she would bring Everest along!


    Everest was a good girl and seemed to grasp the meaning of Daddy going on business trips. She


    never cried. When her dad could remember her, she would cheer him up.


    Each time, she brought fairy tale books with her.


    She would sit in her dad''sp and ask him to read them to her!


    When Benjamin read the fourth book, he could barely recall them now. He held on until he could feel


    the first movements of their baby in her belly, which was so powerful and filled him with awe and


    devotion. This was the little life he and Madelyn had created together, and now it was starting to move.


    Benjamin cherished this feeling.


    Hey in Madelyn''s embrace, listening to those rhythmic beats.


    Eventually, he fell asleep...


    Madelyn covered her mouth, unable to hold back her tears. She knew that Benjamin could hold on until


    now with the help of that diary...


    Late at night, she returned home.


    Madelyn smiled as she thought about their next meeting.


    A servant walked up to her and said, "Mrs. rk, there''s a package for you."


    Madelyn took it and nced at it casually. But she was in shock.


    It was delivered by Benjamin!


    She quickly opened the package, and there were three voice recorders inside, eachbeled with a tag.


    Madelyn went upstairs and turned on the recorder for her, and after a few moments of crackling noise,


    Benjamin''s deep, husky voice began to y.


    "Madelyn, when you hear this, I might no longer be by your side. You''re probably in tears, right? Silly,


    please don''t cry! At least, we''re married, and we have two children. The one in your belly is a boy; let''s


    name him Francis, Francis rk!... Madelyn, promise me that you''ll find me, no matter what, and never


    give up! Because I love you, and I can''t bear the thought of spending the rest of my life without you! In


    the past, even if I lived an affluent life, despite all the things I have... they can''tpare to what I feel


    with you!"


    "Madelyn, I like you!"


    "Madelyn, be brave for me one more time, okay?"


    ...


    Madelyn sat in the living room, gently caressing her slightly bulging belly, and listened attentively.


    When she heard this part, tears streamed down her face!


    She had a feeling that Benjamin had indeed left!


    At that moment, her phone on the sofa rang. It was a call from the rehabilitation center.


    Madelyn picked up the call...


    It was a call from the doctor in the rehabilitation center, who regretfully informed her, "Mrs. rk, Mr.


    rk has left. He took his


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    identity card, bank cards, and two sets of clothes."


    Madelyn felt she was drained of strength and asked with trembling lips, "Is there anything else?"


    After thinking for a while, the doctor continued, "Mr. rk had left a diary by his pillow. Do you need it?"


    "I want it! I''lle to get it right away!"


    Madelyn hung up the phone and wiped away her tears, but she couldn''t stop crying.


    She walked downstairs and told the driver that she was heading out.


    Alexander was standing downstairs and looked anxious while feeling sorry for her.


    He gazed at Madelyn and whispered, "A few days ago, he renewed hiswyer''s license. I found out he


    got his passport and purchased a ne ticket to Dndha. He should be on the ne now."


    Madelyn wept silently.


    Even though she had prepared herself for this day, she couldn''t hold back her tears.


    Benjamin had forgotten everything...


    He could only remember things that happened five years ago when they had not met each other yet.


    Benjamin had gone far away and returned to his beloved legal career he had longed for.


    But she was left behind.


    And Everest was still here.


    Would he treat them as strangers when they met again?


    Madelyn closed her eyes and burst out crying.


    Alexander was also in tears.


    He gently patted Madelyn''s shoulder and said, "Maddie, don''t cry too much, otherwise Ben will be


    heartbroken. Don''t worry; he''s doing just fine...He''lle back eventually."


    Madelyn was still shaking.


    Though he had mentally prepared herself for months, the day had arrived, and she was still


    heartbroken.


    ...


    Madelyn went to the temple.


    She wanted to see Fletcher.


    The temple was halfway up the mountain. She was devout and, though four months pregnant, climbed


    up on foot.


    Upon reaching the temple, she knelt before the Buddha and burnt incense.


    But Fletcher didn''t meet her.


    A young monk came out instead and conveyed Fletcher''s message, "Master says that he told you


    before: ''Only by waiting patiently can you see a silver lining.''"


    After saying these words, the young monk bowed and left.


    Madelyn watched him leave with her head bowed and praised in front of the deities in the temple


    before slowly walked down the mountain.


    Later, Alexander kept her informed every day that within a week, Benjamin had traveled to several


    countries...Madelyn stared at the updates about Benjamin, asionally lost in thought.


    Half a monthter, she saw Benjamin on the television news.


    He had won an internationalwsuit.


    Outside the Tando State Supreme Court, Benjamin was surrounded by numerous reporters.


    Dressed in a ssic ck and white suit, he held his chin slightly up as he was taking questions from


    reporters. He looked so confident and elegant as he had a charming smile on his face.


    Madelyn watched that interview countless times.


    She was smiling and crying...

 Chapter 272 Reunion!

    Chapter 272 Reunion!


    Chapter 272 Reunion!


    Madelyn had looked at it countless times.


    Everest, shaking those chestnut-colored curls, was so still...


    "It''s Daddy! Daddy looks so handsome when he smiles!" Everest thought.


    Everest suddenly buried herself in Madelyn''s arms, her voice very soft. "Mommy, is Daddying


    back?"


    Madelyn responded with a soft "yes."


    She stroked Everest''s head and gently spoke, "But Daddy is sick. Can we give him some time?"


    Everest actually understood a bit.


    Although Mommy didn''t say it, she knew that ever since Daddy went to the hospital, they rarely saw


    him. Sometimes when Daddy read her a story, he would get distracted...


    So Daddy was sick!


    Everest ran back to the children''s room and, in no time, came back with a box. When she opened it, it


    revealed a stic stethoscope set.


    Everest, shaking her chestnut curls, said softly, "I''ll help Daddy get better!"


    Madelyn hugged her, kissed her, and Madelyn''s eyes slightly went moist.


    Everest was the most beautiful gift left to her by Benjamin.


    ...


    Late autumn.


    Autumn was in full swing. The bustling sycamore trees in Gredax began to shed their leaves, but the


    maple trees turned a fiery red, as if the sky itself was burning.


    At the airport, there was a crowd of people.


    Countless reporters were waiting, cameras and microphones pointed at the exit from the customs area.


    Today was the day Benjamin returned to the country.


    After three years of absence, the legal world''s "King" was making aeback. Who wouldn''t want to


    capture the first-hand photos?


    Madelyn was there too!


    She hadn''t brought Everest with her,ing alone. Next to her was the rk family''s chauffeur, Henry.


    Time passed slowly, and Madelyn''s palms were sweating.


    "Benjamin... What kind of scene will it be when we meet again? Do you still remember me?" Madelyn


    thought.


    Amotion suddenly erupted as the reporters rushed in one direction!


    Camera shes went off everywhere!


    Benjamin hade out.


    Surrounded by his bodyguards, he came out through the security checkpoint. Despite so many


    cameras pointed at him, he seemed rxed. He casually answered a few questions before leaving with


    an air of nobility.


    The bodyguards held back the surging reporters...


    Madelyn stood at the exit, and as he passed by her, she saw that her hands and feet were ice-cold. It


    felt as if all her strength had been drained in an instant.


    "Benjamin... Do you really not remember me?" she wandered.


    Just then, Benjamin stopped in his tracks, and his gazended on Madelyn''s face.


    His eyes were unfamiliar and cold.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but call out to him, "Ben!"


    Benjamin pressed his lips tightly and said, "Let''s talk in the car!"


    Madelyn was taken aback!


    Henry nudged her and said happily, "Mr. rk invites you to go over and talk!"


    He supported Madelyn as they headed to the parking lot.


    Benjamin was already sitting in the car. The window of the ck RV was rolled down, and he had taken


    off his coat. The well-tailored white shirt highlighted his well-defined upper body.


    At this moment, he propped his elbow on the window frame and gazed into the distance, lost in


    thought.


    On his kneey a file-the record of his missing five years.


    His marriage with Madelyn!


    They had a child named Everest, and he had broken up with her several times... And there was also


    Eleanor''s death.


    These were all things he could easily find out.


    However, for Benjamin, who had lost five years of memories, Madelyn was still a stranger to him. He


    couldn''t imagine himself loving a woman so devotedly.


    Five years ago, he had been a confirmed bachelor who believed in non-marriage doctrine.


    Madelyn got into the car silently.


    She looked at the documents on hisp and thought that he must have been curious about the past


    five years before returning to the country. He should have investigated, but she wasn''t optimistic


    because his gaze held no warmth when he looked at her.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn.


    She was quite pretty, with a petite and delicate face that was fair and smooth. Even though she was


    pregnant, her limbs still looked slender.


    His gaze fell on her slightly swollen belly.


    Inside there, that should be his child...


    Benjamin averted his gaze and said softly to the driver, "To the apartment!"


    He was dominant from start to finish, and Madelyn didn''t have a chance to refuse... She endured the


    unbearable longing and sat quietly beside him.


    Although they were not close physically, she could still feel his body warmth.


    Madelyn''s eyes turned red, and she turned her face to look out of the car window.


    After about an hour, the car stopped in front of the apartment building, and the driver put down the


    luggage and left.


    Benjamin pulled the luggage and, casting a nce at Madelyn, took the lead into the elevator!


    From start to finish, he remained cold.


    Madelyn''s heart ached, but she told herself this was ... normal!


    Because he no longer loved her!


    But when they entered the apartment and Madelyn saw the interior decor, she couldn''t help herself, her


    voice trembling as she asked, "Have you been here before?"


    The ce was back to ck and white.


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Tasteful, but as cold as a showroom...


    Benjamin put down his luggage, changed his shoes, and gestured for Madelyn to sit.


    Probably due to her pregnancy, he poured her a ss of water and himself a ss of red wine. He


    leaned against the bar, sipping lightly...


    Madelyn knew he was contemting how to deal with her!


    How to deal with this unexpected guest in his life!


    Benjamin drank about half of his ss of wine, then set the wine ss down. His dark eyes carried a


    hint of contemtion as he said, "These five years... Although I''ve investigated, I still want to hear your


    version of the story."


    Madelyn met his gaze.


    His dark eyes were clear, exuding a strong sense of charisma, unlike theter Benjamin, who was


    always gentle with her.


    Somehow, her face turned slightly red.


    Benjamin noticed it.


    He walked over and sat down beside her, gently stroking her delicate cheek, his tone slightly teasing.


    "Tell me!"


    Madelyn couldn''t resist.


    Her face was serene as she recounted the events of the past five years to him.


    After listening, Benjamin let out a light chuckle, "Quite touching! Ms. Green... It''s a shame you didn''t go


    into sales!"


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Benjamin slowly brushed her face with his fingers, his voice low and husky. "Do you ... really love me?"


    Before she could fully process it, she found herself pinned to the couch by him.


    Shey there, looking somewhat disheveled.


    But she looked up at him, gazing at his handsome face, filled with longing.


    Madelyn couldn''t help but reach out and touch his handsome face, from his eyebrows to his nose,


    gently tracing, her voice slightly choked. "Yes... I really love you!"


    Benjamin caught her hand, preventing her from touching him.


    Then, her dress loosened, revealing her slightly swollen belly.


    Snow-white and soft.


    Benjamin used his long index finger to gently stroke it, his touch somewhat provocative...


    It had been a long time for Madelyn.


    Before her was the man she deeply loved, and she couldn''t help but feel a sensation.


    Her body trembled slightly...


    "Do you want it?"


    He murmured in her ear, his voice husky, "I''ve heard that women your age have quite a strong desire!"


    Madelyn felt both embarrassed and angry.


    She wasn''t afraid of him bing cold, but he was not only cold but also a bit of a jerk.


    Benjamin released her and straightened his shirt a bit. Indifferently, he said, "Ms. Green, do you want a


    husband or a man who can satisfy you?... Think it over. We can only proceed with our conversation


    after you decide!"


    Madelyn''s eyebrows showed a faint trace of blue.


    Benjamin gazed at that faint bluish mark.


    Her skin was fair, so the bluish mark looked rather attractive, much like an ink painting.


    He couldn''t help but gently touch it, but he didn''t hold back with his words. "That won''t happen! After all,


    we still have two children to raise!"


    Benjamin stared at Madelyn.


    She was indeed very beautiful, and even with her pregnancy, she had a unique charm. However, he


    had no interest in being intimate with a woman!


    He got up and walked into the study. When he came out, he had a set of documents in his hand.


    He ced the documents gently into Madelyn''s hand.


    Benjamin sat on the opposite sofa,pletely changing his demeanor from before. He appeared


    dignified and reserved.


    He locked his eyes onto Madelyn''s and spoke in a businesslike tone, "Ms. Green, I''m willing to jointly


    raise the two children with you! The condition is signing this separation agreement. After signing it, I will


    provide the corresponding child support and visit the children once a week!"


    Madelyn felt somewhat embarrassed.


    How was this any different from a divorce?


    She hesitated to say something but ultimately didn''t. She knew that begging and yielding at this


    moment would only make him more repelled...


    In fact, she should be grateful.


    It was already good that he didn''t deny the existence of her and their children!


    However, she was still very sad.


    In front of her was clearly the husband she deeply loved, but she didn''t dare to even hug him, fearing


    his aversion. She couldn''t fathom what he was thinking at this moment, neither about her nor about


    Eleanor.


    There was a saying, "The one you can never win against is the dead!"


    Madelyn skimmed through the separation agreement he had drafted.


    He would pay a monthly child support fee of 300 thousand dors, visit her once a week to spend the


    night with the child, and have no other interactions during the remaining time. Of course, they would


    cooperate unconditionally when important events required the couple to appear together. Additionally,


    he specifically demanded her loyalty to the marriage.


    Benjamin stood up and calmly said, "No hurry, take your time to consider."


    He still had some work to attend to at hisw firm, so he headed into the master bedroom''s walk-in


    closet to change his clothes.


    Just as he had taken off his shirt, Madelyn followed him.


    She came right in and said directly, "Benjamin, I won''t agree to the separation!"


    Benjamin lightly frowned.


    His hand rested on his belt, and when he saw that she didn''t leave but continued to stand there, her


    little face was pale with a red nose, as if she had been crying. She seemed very easy to manipte.


    He took a few slow steps toward her, looking down at her with a superior gaze, his voice husky. "So,


    you want to watch a man change his clothes? Mrs. rk, I think it''s been a long time since I enjoyed


    myself. If you''re willing, shall we...?"


    Madelyn, of course, wouldn''t agree!


    He had no feelings for her now; he was just using her for his pleasure.


    Benjamin had already started kissing her. His memories told him no experience, and he was driven by


    male instinct. He pressed her against the cab door, pinching her delicate chin, forcing her to kiss


    him deeply or shallowly.


    In front of the mirror, a man and a woman entangled.


    The woman''s face was full of tears.


    Benjamin let her go, smiling coldly. "What a killjoy!"


    He held her chin and teased her pale pink tongue with his long fingers, speaking softly, "Don''t ask for


    too much. We each get what we need, isn''t that good enough?"


    Although he resisted marriage, their marriage had be a reality.


    As awyer, he needed his reputation. He couldn''t get a divorce, which would invite ridicule from the


    public. So the best way was to maintain the appearance of marriage with her. If she was willing, they


    could asionally meet their physiological needs.


    Benjamin thought that if she were smart, she would sign this agreement!

    Chapter 273 Intimacy Is Normal


    Chapter 273 Intimacy Is Normal


    After Benjamin finished speaking, he pulled out a set of clothes from the wardrobe.


    He changed in front of Madelyn.


    Madelyn watched silently...


    After Benjamin changed his clothes, he met her gaze. He was about to make a mocking remark when


    his phone rang.


    He nced at it and saw that it was a call from Alexander, so he answered, "Dad!"


    On the other end of the line, something was said, and Benjamin''s gaze fell on Madelyn''s face, his eyes


    somewhat deep. "Yes, she''s with me!... We''ll have dinner together tonight!"


    He hung up the phone and spoke indifferently, "Dad wants us to have dinner together tonight. I''m a bit


    busy, so you take ... the child and go first!"


    Madelyn understood.


    He wasn''t really busy; he just didn''t want to be with her.


    She didn''t approach step by step. It was easy for her to agree. The two of them quietly went


    downstairs.


    Benjamin had the driver take her, while he opened the door to a ck McLaren, ready to get in.


    Madelyn approached, and they were separated by a car door.


    In a calm tone, Madelyn said, "Benjamin, you can be cold-hearted towards me, but... Everest is very


    sensitive. Please don''t say those things in front of her!"


    Benjamin thought of the little girl he had seen in the documents.


    She looked a lot like Madelyn, fair and tender with curly hair.


    And ... quite cute!


    He nodded slightly, a bit cold. "You can rest assured!"


    Madelyn''s heart eased.


    She watched the ck sports car gradually disappear in front of her, not sure whether she was happy


    or sad... She had been full of determination, but after being treated like that by him, she became


    uncertain!


    She stood there for a long time...


    Henry felt sorry for her and couldn''t help but approach her softly. "Madam, please get in the car first!


    Your body is heavy, and standing for too long isn''t good."


    Madelyn gently held her waist and forced a smile. "It seems a bit sore!"


    She got into the car and returned to the vi.


    After returning home, she locked herself in the study, drawing all the curtains closed.


    The study was dimly lit.


    Madelyn leaned on the sofa with the voice recorder that Benjamin had left her, listening quietly. She


    listened countless times before feeling some strength in herself.


    In the evening, she took Everest and went to the rks'' mansion.


    As soon as she entered, Emerson rushed over, calling out affectionately, "Auntie!"


    Madelyn crouched down and gently stroked his little head.


    The little guy blushed slightly.


    Everest made a funny face and said, "You always blush, shy shy shy!"


    Alexander and his wife approached.


    Brianna took the two children to have dessert, while Alexander stayed behind to talk to Madelyn. He


    asked, "Have you seen him?"


    Madelyn nodded.


    She didn''t want to upset the elders or bring up those matters. However, Alexander already knew, as he


    had some inside information.


    He looked at Madelyn with a shrewd eye and said slowly, "He made such a request, and you''re not


    angry? Madelyn... What I want to tell you is, don''t indulge him just because he sacrificed for you. You


    don''t need me to tell you how much of a scoundrel Ben was in the past. In any case, constantly giving


    in isn''t a long-term solution. You''ve pped him so many times in the past, and he still begged you to


    reconcile, didn''t he?"


    Madelyn remained silent.


    Alexander understood in his heart that she was too soft-hearted to treat Ben like that.


    Now, she had to deal with the situation delicately.


    As a father, Alexander had his hands full with this situation.


    ...


    Benjamin returned home at 7 in the evening, just in time for dinner.


    He parked his car and walked in under the cover of the night. Everest couldn''t wait and ran to him,


    hugging his long legs. She rubbed her little face against Ben''s leg and said, "Daddy, Everest missed


    you so much!"


    Benjamin''s body stiffened...


    After all, he didn''t have the habit of spending time with children in his memory, but as he held Everest,


    he felt a hint of tenderness in his heart.


    Was this what they called blood connection?


    Alexander watched his son hold his granddaughter, Benjamin not showing any resistance on his face.


    Alexander felt a sense of sadness and regret in his heart.


    Ben couldn''t imagine how much he used to love Everest at that moment!


    Brianna wiped away tears.


    During this reunion dinner, everyone ate in silence...


    Benjamin and Madelyn sat together, but they felt like strangers.


    One couldn''t remember, and the other couldn''t forget.


    Alexander wanted to bring them closer together. He thought that as a married couple, they would


    be more familiar as they spent time together.


    After dinner, Benjamin wiped his lips and said, "Dad, I have a case to attend to at the office."


    Alexander frowned. "Is your case more important than spending time with your family?" He gave


    Brianna a signal and said, "Have the servants prepare Ben''s old room. Let them have a good


    conversation tonight. Everest will sleep with us!"


    Brianna always listened to him, and she immediately went to make arrangements.


    Benjamin smiled faintly.


    He lit a cigarette and walked slowly upstairs, a sense of detachment surrounding him.


    Madelyn was still feeling uneasy.


    Alexander patted her hand and said, "It''s just temporary. Be patient."


    Madelyn nodded.


    She didn''t go upstairs immediately; instead, she stayed downstairs with the two children. She even


    managed to put Everest to sleep before going to the room where Benjamin used to stay.


    Benjamin stood by the window, smoking.


    Madelyn stood at the doorway, watching him.


    He had a perfect side face, and as he smoked, the smoke quickly dissipated into the air.


    Perhaps sensing her gaze, Benjamin turned his head to look at her. Then, he extinguished the cigarette


    and spoke calmly, "Learning how toin now?"


    Madelyn closed the door behind her.


    She walked slowly toward him and, under his gaze, gently embraced his waist.


    "Dad already knows," she said softly.


    "Ben, we''re husband and wife. I don''t want to live separately from you. I want to be close to you. Is that


    not normal?"


    Benjamin''s expression was inscrutable.


    He leaned back leisurely, looking down at the woman in his arms.


    She was so gentle and obedient, as if she could be manipted by him. This piqued his interest


    somewhat, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Is this how you want it?"

    He had heard that women could resume such activities after three months of pregnancy...

 Chapter 274 Dont You Want Me to Touch You?

    Chapter 274Don''t You Want Me to Touch You?


    Chapter 274 Don''t You Want Me to Touch You?


    Benjamin was not a man who wouldpromise with himself.


    In his memory, he didn''t get close to women, and many years had passed since then. But now, he had


    a wife, a young and beautiful one, carrying his child in her belly.


    Just the thought of it was exhrating.


    While he didn''t have feelings for her, his body certainly reacted to her...


    When Madelyn came to her senses, she found herself pinned to the foot of the bed by him.


    Driven by his male instincts, he gripped her slender waist and teased incessantly.


    Madelyn felt both embarrassed and fearful.


    She was afraid that Benjamin might identally harm the baby, so even though she wanted to be


    close to him, it was hard for her to let herself feel anything.


    So, it was very unsessful...


    Benjamin whispered in her ear with a hint of wickedness, "Don''t you love me very much? Why don''t


    you want me to touch you? Look at yourself, you don''t feel a thing... Hmm?"


    Madelyn''s eyes welled up with tears.


    She turned her face away in embarrassment. "I''m pregnant! I don''t want to do it!"


    Benjamin gently stroked her swollen belly. Inside was his child... He thought that if it weren''t for his


    child, he would never have such thoughts about a pregnant woman in his entire life!


    Mutual attraction between a man and a woman always requires passion.


    Since she didn''t respond, he found it uninteresting as well and was about to turn over to go to the


    bathroom.


    A faint sound came from the thick bedroom door.


    Through the gap in the door, a tea-colored curly head peeked in and called out like a little kitten,


    "Mommy!"


    Madelyn''s body stiffened...


    She had just been mistreated by Benjamin, and her voice sounded weak and pitiful as she replied,


    "Mommy''s here!"


    Her clothes were disheveled, but luckily, the room was dimly lit.


    As parents, they quickly got dressed.


    Especially Benjamin, his face was turning ck. He had never thought that this kind of thing would


    happen, and there would be a little brating in the middle!


    Everest climbed onto the bed with something in her arms.


    She skillfully climbed into her father''s arms and took out a stic stethoscope. With her soft little hand,


    she ced it on Benjamin''s chest. "Grandpa said Daddy is very sick, and Everest will help Daddy get


    better!"


    Benjamin didn''t know what to say.


    With a click, the lights came on brightly!


    Benjamin''s handsome face turned red, remnants of unattended desire lingering. Everest patted her


    father''s face, thinking that his face was very red; he must be sick!


    She earnestly examined her father for a serious illness!


    Madelyn didn''t look any better; she took the opportunity to straighten her clothes and slipped into the


    bathroom.


    Benjamin gritted his teeth. "This woman runs fast!" he said to himself.


    Everest raised her curly head and blinked her eyes. "Daddy''s heartbeat is very fast!"


    That must be an illness!


    Everest took out a small bottle and poured out two colorful pills. "Daddy, take your medicine!"


    Benjamin looked at the bottle.


    Rainbow candies!


    He certainly didn''t want to eat such overly sweet things...


    Everest, with teary eyes and a pitiful expression like a helpless puppy, gazed up at him.


    Benjamin''s face stiffened.


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    He gritted his teeth and reluctantly swallowed those two things. Surprisingly, they tasted quite good.


    Everest patted his head. "Daddy is really good!"


    She yearned for her father''s love after all.


    Benjamin didn''t resist, and she took it as an opportunity to hand him a fairy tale book. Shefortably


    crawled into his arms, resting one of her little bare feet on his stomach.


    No one could resist such an adorable kid!


    Benjamin did not like children before, but perhaps he knew that this was his blood, or perhaps the little


    guy was also very smart, so he was not willing to let her down.


    Benjamin leaned back against the head of the bed, lightly embracing the little one in his palm.


    He started reading the fairy tale to her, although his memory was somewhatcking, and he wasn''t


    very fluent.


    Everest seemed disappointed. "Daddy doesn''t read as well as before!"


    Before...?


    Benjamin was visibly startled, and it took him a moment to realize she was referring to him before he


    lost his memory.


    Was that version of him truly deeply in love with his wife and daughter? Was he a good husband?


    Benjamin couldn''t imagine!


    He continued to read the fairy tale slowly until the little one fell asleep in his arms. She felt warm,


    despite her small body, like a cozy firece on thiste autumn night.


    In the dim light, Benjamin carefully examined the little bundle in his arms.


    She was a picture of beauty.


    Fair and delicate, with a head of tea-colored hair that resembled Madelyn entirely.


    But when it came to her personality, he could already tell in just half a day that she took after him!


    There was no need for a DNA test; this was definitely his blood!


    Benjamin gently set the little one aside and quietly observed her for a while before getting out of bed


    and heading to the bathroom.


    ...


    Madelyn sat there in a daze.


    She was still wearing that pure cotton floral dress, and she looked stunning in profile. It was as if she


    had been born to meet his aesthetic standards, and her pregnancy had added a touch of womanhood


    to her.


    He thought that if she weren''t pregnant, her figure would be exceptional!


    Otherwise, he wouldn''t have been captivated by her!


    Now that he had calmed down, Benjamin was willing to be open with her.


    He leaned lightly against the wall and said calmly, "I remember that you were Daniel''s ex-girlfriend!


    Although I know what happened afterward, it''s still hard for me to imagine that we would get married


    and have a child together..."


    Benjamin was well aware of how picky he was.


    Back in the day, many women came and went in his life, but none of them could capture his attention.


    So he was puzzled about how he could love her so deeply, enough to watch Eleanor get shot to protect


    her!


    Hearing this, Madelyn looked up at him.


    Although he didn''t say it all, she understood what he was thinking-


    He knew that Eleanor had died!


    But he had forgotten all of Eleanor''s wrongdoings. The only thing he seemed to remember was that


    she had cheated on him!


    Now, he was asking about Daniel, and Madelyn knew that men often couldn''t erase physical


    connections from their minds. He was suspecting whether she had been involved with Daniel...


    Madelyn didn''t exin, nor did she want to!


    She was tired...


    The child in her belly was nearly five months old and was quite active. Even if she wanted to win back


    Benjamin, she had to ensure the baby''s safe delivery.


    Madelyn calmly spoke, "Benjamin, I won''t agree to a separation!"


    Agreeing to a separation would mean allowing the man to go and have his way!


    She wasn''t that naive!


    Upon hearing this, Benjamin raised an eyebrow and gave a faint smile.


    Madelyn lowered her gaze. "I know you''re probably thinking that as long as you have legs, you can go


    wherever you want, but Benjamin, noting home and my agreeing to that are two different things!"


    She finished speaking and walked out of the bathroom.


    As they passed each other, Benjamin suddenly lightly grasped her shoulder. Somehow, he sensed her


    unspoken sadness.


    Madelyn''s nose turned slightly red. "I''m tired! I want to rest!"


    Benjamin leaned closer to her and whispered, "Did you use this charming and adorable demeanor to


    seduce me in the past? Otherwise, why would I keep sleeping with you and have a child?"


    That was really a jerk.


    There was a hint of moisture in Madelyn''s eyes...


    Then she gently pushed him away and slowly walked to the side of the bed, lying down next to Everest.


    Later, Benjamin alsoy down.


    Madelyn had her back to him, but he knew she wasn''t asleep. asionally, in the darkness, he could


    hear her take a breath or two... She seemed to be crying!


    Benjamin gently closed his eyes.


    He had lost five years of his life''s memories, and when he woke up, he had gained a wife, and she was


    none other than Daniel''s ex-girlfriend!


    His sister had also been mistreated by his wife''s uncle!


    He couldn''t muster much goodwill towards her!


    But he liked her appearance and figure; her waist was slender even though she was pregnant, and her


    legs were long and straight... She was fair-skinned, and everything about her seemed soft and supple.


    In the darkness, Benjamin suddenly became a bit restless...

 Chapter 275 Benjamin, Remember to Go Home!

    Chapter 275Benjamin, Remember to Go Home!


    Chapter 275 Benjamin, Remember to Go Home!


    Early in the morning, Everest woke Benjamin up as she sat on him.


    As he opened his eyes, he found a tea-colored curly-haired bundle on top of him, yelling, "Daddy, I


    need to go to the bathroom!"


    Benjamin shielded his eyes!


    He really didn''t want to get up, but this was his own child!


    He had to sit up and help the little one out of the one-piece pajamas while asking, "Where''s your


    mommy?"


    Everest''s eyes sparkled. "Mommy''s making breakfast for Everest!"


    Making breakfast...


    Did the rk family need a housewife?


    Was she really so diligent?


    Benjamin got a bit distracted, and with his unskilled movements, by the time he regained his focus,


    Everest had already cried... The crotch of the pajamas was warm.


    A few warm drops had fallen on him.


    Everest looked embarrassed!


    Her once-white and tender face was now wrinkled, and she seemed very upset.


    Madelyn came up from downstairs, a bit surprised to see that Everest had wet herself. But she quickly


    embraced the child andforted her gently, and with her mother''s tenderness, the little one squirmed


    a bit ufortably but stopped crying.


    Madelyn fetched clean clothes for her.


    Everest promptly took off her clothes, revealing her small body and big head.


    She was really cute...


    Benjamin raised his leg and sat up, saying, "She can undress herself, so why should I do it for her?


    Otherwise, she won''t wet herself!"


    Madelyn remained silent for a while before speaking, "You used to take care of her until she was three


    years old. She knew how to do many things, but she hasn''t seen you for many days, and she misses


    you and wants to be spoiled..."


    But Benjamin had forgotten...


    He not only forgot to love her, but also how to care for Everest.


    After Madelyn finished speaking, she went into the bathroom to prepare a bath for Everest. When she


    came out, she tidied up the bed and the floor.


    Benjamin silently watched Madelyn.


    She looked like a typical homemaker, very gentle and soft. He thought that if he desired marriage, he


    should easily ept her!


    But he didn''t like married life.


    He felt it was constraining!


    Benjamin wiped himself clean, changed into new clothes in the dressing room, and after finishing his


    morning routine, he slowly went downstairs.


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Downstairs, Alexander sneakily nced at his son.


    "Oh, he''s dressed like an elite, but he really gets on my nerves!" Alexander thought.


    And then he looked at the two soft and tender little babies, and he couldn''t help but adore them...


    Everest put on a pretty dress and sat at the dining table, trying hard to eat her food. When she saw


    Benjamining downstairs, she was quite amodating, "I forgive you for what happened just


    now!"


    Benjamin didn''t know what to say.


    Everest shook her head and said, "I''m willing to give you a chance to make amends!"


    Benjamin sat down next to her, grabbed a cup of coffee, and took a sip. "How do I make amends?"


    "Take me to kindergarten!"


    "But both Mommy and Daddy have to go."


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn next to him and lowered his voice, "Did you teach her this?"


    Madelyn was a bit annoyed.


    She straightforwardly admitted, "Yes! You can choose not to go!"


    Benjamin smiled. "Since you are so calcted, how can I not satisfy you?" He then lightly teased her


    soft and tender cheek!


    So soft, so tender!


    He felt that the best thing about this marriage was that she fit perfectly with his aesthetics!


    Alexander watched his son''s frivolous behavior and got angry. "Mind your manners when you speak,


    and don''t be handsy! Madelyn is your legally wedded wife, not some random woman. Show some


    respect!"


    Benjamin just smiled faintly.


    He didn''t argue back and, instead, kindly dropped off Everest at kindergarten and even graciously


    drove Madelyn back to the vi.


    But he didn''t go inside!


    Madelyn wasn''t foolish.


    She didn''t expect him to return to family life all at once. She remembered that in the past, he had a wild


    private life. While he didn''t engage in promiscuous rtionships, he wasn''t a man who couldn''t let


    loose in social settings!


    Madelyn got out of the car...


    Benjamin remained in the car, rolled down the window, and lit a cigarette.


    Madelyn asked softly, "Are youing home tonight?"


    Benjamin leaned on the car window, took a slow drag of his cigarette, and smiled lightly at her


    question. "If I don''te home, will you go and tell my dad to force us to sleep in the same bed


    again?"


    Madelyn tilted her head slightly-


    This version of Benjamin was really a jerk!


    When facing him again, she took a deep breath and said, "Mr. rk, remember toe home!"


    Benjamin''s gaze was clear, and a hint of a smirk yed at the corner of his mouth, "Is Mrs. rk giving


    me a pass?"


    Madelyn wasn''t going to let him off that easily!


    She quietly looked at him for a moment, then turned and walked into the vi, back into their once-


    shared home.


    But as she walked, tears welled up in her eyes.


    She had experienced just how deep Benjamin''s love could be, and now she was feeling the sharp pain


    of being stabbed by it!


    In the days that followed, he didn''te home!


    She knew he was staying in his apartment.


    Everest kept asking, and Madelyn gentlyforted her, feeling guilty for her daughter.


    But she also understood that it was impossible to tie him down with their child!


    The old Benjamin was like a wild horse!


    Madelyn wasn''t without anxiety in her heart, but she had to endure it. She was pregnant and couldn''t


    afford to quarrel with him or confront him directly.


    Women always ended up losing when they went head-to-head with men!


    Early in the morning, after dropping off Everest, she was asked by the driver, "Mrs. rk, are we going


    to the hospital for a check-up now?"


    Madelyn lowered her gaze slightly and said, "We''re going to the office!"


    The driver nodded and drove to Everest Group. When the car stopped, Paisley, her secretary, came


    over and opened the car door, looking somewhat surprised, "Mrs. rk, aren''t you supposed to have a


    check-up today?"


    Madelyn was dressed in a white suit, and her belly was showing.


    She lightly supported her waist and smiled. "There''s something I need to take care of today!"


    Paisley, her secretary, was attentive.


    She also knew that Benjamin had returned, and she felt happy for Madelyn. When they reached the


    top-floor office, Paisley, the secretary, naturally said a few words of congrattions.


    Madelyn sat behind her desk, slowly sipping half a cup of milk, and suddenly asked, "Paisley, how


    many years have you been with Ben?"


    Paisley, the secretary, smiled and said, "I''ve been with him for about seven or eight years."


    Madelyn stared at her and spoke softly, "Ben has forgotten many things, and I''m very worried. Plus, I


    don''t have anyone reliable to help me. Paisley, I want you to go back to him!"


    Paisley was visibly startled.


    She wasn''t a fool, and she understood Madelyn''s implication. She was being asked to go undercover!


    She was in a dilemma.


    If she betrayed Mr. rk and was discovered, she would be in big trouble. After all, the position she


    held now was a golden ticket!


    Madelyn opened the drawer, took out her checkbook, and wrote a check for 1.4 million.


    Additionally, there''s another key.


    "A 180-square-meter fully furnished apartment in Eimtin District, plus a 1.4 million check! Even if Ben


    divorces you, this should be enough for you to livefortably. Furthermore, I promise you can return


    to work at Everest Group!"


    Paisley was left dumbfounded by this generous offer.


    That 180-square-meter apartment would cost around 4.2 million, and adding the check on top of it...


    Mrs. rk was really generous!


    Madelyn not only used the financial incentive but also pushed for an emotional feel. "I deeply love Ben!


    But now I''m pregnant, and I don''t have the energy to win him back. Yet, I''m worried about him...


    Paisley, can you understand the predicament of being both a wife and a mother?"


    Paisley hesitated for a while.


    She said, "Mrs. rk, rest assured, I... Stand on your side!"


    Madelyn stood up and gently ced the key and check in her pocket, smiling softly. "I won''t interfere in


    minor matters, but if there are any special people around him, you must let me know!"


    Paisley, the secretary, couldn''t help but nod.


    She felt that Madelyn was different now. Had she been provoked by Benjamin yesterday?


    Paisley left.


    Madelyn made a phone call to Benjamin. Her voice was gentle, "Ben, today is my prenatal check-up


    day. Do you have time to apany me?"


    Benjamin was at hisw firm.


    He was surprised to receive Madelyn''s call. He hadn''t returned to her for the past few days, and she


    hadn''t made any phone calls either. Now, she was calling him on her own initiative!


    He didn''t mind apanying her for the check-up. After all, it was his child.


    But he had an appointment with a client in the morning.


    Benjamin politely declined, making Madelyn feel that if she insisted, it would be unreasonable.


    She was quite docile and said softly, "Alright, then I''ll have Mr. Herman apany me."


    On the other end of the phone, Benjamin frowned.


    Mr. Herman...


    Joseph Herman?


    He remembered that he used to work for him, managing finances. Now, he was under Madelyn''s


    And he had even reached the point where he could apany her for a prenatal check-up?

 Chapter 276 Benjamin, Im Pregnant!

    Chapter 276 Benjamin, I''m Pregnant!


    Chapter 276 Benjamin, I''m Pregnant!


    It was ten o''clock in the morning.


    Paisley arrived at thew firm.


    Benjamin''s assistant led her into the office and smiled. "Wee back, Paisley!"


    However, Paisley wasn''t sure of herself...


    She closed the door and stared at Benjamin behind the desk.


    Benjamin didn''t even raise his head and continued to review the documents. He asked in a casual


    tone, "Did Madelyn send you here?"


    Paisley didn''t deny it and nodded, "Yes! Mrs. rk said that I am proficient in this area and can assist


    Mr. rk."


    Benjamin smiled lightly.


    He closed the documents and chatted casually for a while, then casually asked, "By the way, is the


    General Manager of Everest Group, Mr. Herman, Joseph Herman?"


    Paisley was slightly puzzled. "Oh, yes, it''s him!"


    Benjamin''s tone became even lighter. "Is he married?"


    Paisley didn''t understand why he was asking, but she answered truthfully, "Mr. Herman is 35 years old,


    with good conditions, but he has never been married. I heard he doesn''t have a girlfriend either!"


    Unmarried and no girlfriend...


    Benjamin pursed his lips slightly and said, "Alright, I got it. You can go out for now."


    Paisley took the documents and was about to leave.


    Benjamin suddenly asked again, "What time is Madelyn''s prenatal check-up, and which hospital is it


    at? Send me the details..."


    Paisley couldn''t help but smile. "Sure, I''ll send it to youter!"


    ...


    Benjamin arrived at the hospital around 11 in the morning.


    Madelyn had alreadypleted her prenatal check-up. She was sitting alone on a hospital bench,


    quietly looking at the ultrasound report in her hand.


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin approached slowly.


    He noticed that she was alone, and Mr. Herman was nowhere to be seen.


    He understood that this was her little trick.


    He wasn''t particrly annoyed, so he sat down next to her and stretched his body, ncing at her. "Let


    me see!"


    Madelyn handed the ultrasound report to him.


    "It''s almost five months! I''ve already picked a name for the baby, Fran, Francis rk!"


    Benjamin looked at the ultrasound report. "Is it a boy?"


    Madelyn nodded, her gaze falling on his handsome face. At this moment, she wished he would


    suddenly remember and say to her, "I''m sorry, Madelyn, for beingte!"


    But that didn''t happen...


    Benjamin, who had lost part of his memory, was merely ying the role of a husband reluctantly.


    He came here because he was afraid she would cuckold him!


    Sure enough, after looking at the ultrasound report, he gracefully escorted her downstairs and didn''t


    bother inviting her for lunch.


    They went their separate ways downstairs!


    In the days that followed...


    Benjamin lived like a bachelor; he was always socializing outside and rarely came home!


    A private investigator sent photos to Madelyn, showing that Benjamin attended one social event after


    another, often in thepany of numerous socialites anddies...


    One monthter, at Everest Group''s president''s office.


    Madelyn stood quietly by the floor-to-ceiling window. On her desk were several photos.


    Joseph entered and happened to see them.


    He pretended not to have seen them and considerately said, "Mrs. rk, how about... I attend Mr.


    Kermit''s private dinner alone tonight. You should go home early and rest!"


    Madelyn gently shook her head. "Mr. Kermit has been a great help this time. I have to go!"


    Joseph didn''t insist any further.


    He left...


    At 9:30 in the evening, at Gredax''s most upscale business club.


    After having dinner, Madelyn was preparing to leave, and Joseph was nning to go back for a second


    round of drinks after seeing her off. They were discussing business matters as they walked.


    Suddenly, Madelyn''s gaze froze...


    Next to the elevator, a private room''s door was half open.


    Inside, everything was clearly visible.


    There were about five or six men, half of whom Madelyn recognized, including her husband, of course.


    What was most remarkable was that each man was apanied by a young woman, and Benjamin


    was no exception.


    Although he didn''t embrace any of the women, they were leaning softly against him.


    He didn''t push them away!


    Madelyn watched in silence...


    Sensing her gaze, Benjamin raised his head, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward...


    Inside, there was Ethan who was familiar to both Madelyn and Benjamin. He was the owner of the Six-


    Star Hotel.


    Ethan immediately extinguished his cigarette and quickly stood up. "Madelyn, what a coincidence!


    Please don''t misunderstand Ben. We''re just here to discuss business, and nothing else. You know what


    he is like, Madelyn!"


    He invited Madelyn in.


    Inside, there were another five or six young women!


    In this situation, if Madelyn went in, it would be embarrassing for her. Joseph also said, "Mrs. rk,


    why don''t you go back in the car first!"


    Madelyn wanted to leave, but she couldn''t move her limbs.


    She stared at Benjamin intently.


    The young women around Benjamin didn''t seem to understand the situation and muttered, "This Mrs.


    rk is quite interesting. She can''t control her husband and wants to keep up appearances as the big


    boss''s wife!"


    Ethan was in a hurry...


    Madelyn had a temper, and she wasn''t easy to handle!


    Madelyn still went in. She supported her 6-month pregnant belly and walked gracefully to the young


    woman''s side, smiling gently. "You''re a student from the Gredax Art School, right? At such a young


    age, instead of honing your skills, you''re out here drinking with a man... Do you believe that with just


    one word from me, you won''t have any performance opportunities after you graduate!"


    The young woman didn''t believe her. She thought that with Benjamin by her side, she was safe.


    But she waited for a long time, and Benjamin remained cold and didn''t intervene at all!


    The young woman''s smile froze!


    Madelyn didn''t feel victorious because she knew exactly what kind of person Benjamin used to be.


    A girl like her couldn''t possibly catch his eye!


    He was deliberately making her unhappy!


    Finally, Benjamin made a move...


    He looked at Joseph, who was holding Madelyn''s shoulder, and said lightly but irresistibly, "I''ll take you


    home!"


    With that, he held Madelyn''s hand.


    Ethan, in order to ease the atmosphere, deliberately said, "You see, they are so affectionate!"


    The young woman felt embarrassed.


    But Madelyn felt even more embarrassed.


    She remained silent until they got into the ck luxury car. She didn''t speak to Benjamin, turned her


    face to look out of the car window...


    It waste at night.


    The dark night, like a winged monster, devoured everything!


    Including their past love...


    Benjamin answered a phone call in the car, which was from his father, Alexander. Alexander''s tone was


    not pleasant as he scolded his son severely. Presumably, he had learned about what happened at the


    club!


    Benjamin casually dealt with his father and looked at Madelyn with deep eyes...


    Half an hourter, the car stopped in front of the vi.


    Benjamin got out of the car, opened the car door on Madelyn''s side, and gestured for her to get out.


    Madelyn slowly raised her eyes.


    Her gaze was moist and filled with weariness.


    Benjamin was not rough. He simply picked her up and carried her all the way to the master bedroom on


    the second floor...


    She was pregnant.


    He didn''t act rudely. He only pinned her to the foot of the bed and quickly removed her coat.


    Underneath, she wore a V-necked, thin red wool dress that entuated her fair and tempting skin.


    After Madelyn''s initial confusion, she began to resist and said, "Benjamin, what do you want?"


    "To sleep with you!"


    He threw a stack of photos down, scattering them around her face!


    Each one was of him, in different situations, but mostly at social gatherings in clubs.


    The edges of the photos were sharp and scratched her delicate cheeks.


    But Madelyn couldn''t feel the pain...


    He had always known, and that was why he intentionally didn''te home and intentionally lingered


    outside!


    He resisted this marriage.


    "There are many more!"


    "Mrs. rk, didn''t you have someone follow me and take pictures of me? Isn''t that what you wanted?


    I''m fulfilling your desires now, why are you crying instead... hmm?"


    Benjamin began unbuttoning his shirt, deliberately taking each button off slowly with his long fingers,


    letting her see his well-defined muscles...


    Madelyn cried out in fear, "Benjamin, I''m pregnant!"


    "Six months is enough! I heard that when women are pregnant, it feels different! I really want to try it,


    and you should also experience how different I am from before!"


    ...


    He spoke dirty words and took possession of her in just a few moves!


    It hurt a lot!


    Madelyn''s face turned pale, and she tightly gripped the bedsheet, enduring the waves of anger from


    the man... Her brows twitched with excitement, a faint shade of blue appearing, very seductive.


    Benjamin gently stroked that area and spoke in a low, hoarse voice, "You''re moaning like this under


    me, and you say you don''t want it? Hmm?"


    Madelyn couldn''t speak.


    Hot sweat dripped down, scalding her body, and she couldn''t stop trembling as she clung to his


    shoulders.


    "Benjamin, you jerk! Benjamin, let me go!"


    ...


    "Benjamin, do you know... I miss you so much!" she spoke to herself.


    After the passionate encounter.


    Madelyn soaked in the bathtub for a long time, until her body had a faint pink hue. She then got up, put


    on a bathrobe, and walked back to the master bedroom.


    In the master bedroom, Benjamin stood by the window, smoking. There was a faint smell of tobo in


    the room.


    He was still wearing the same clothes as before, just slightly wrinkled.


    This reminded Madelyn of what just happened. She felt embarrassed to some extent. Their marital


    intimacy this time wasn''t as close as the first time they had been together. There wasn''t much emotion


    involved; it was purely his emotional release.


    Madelyn silently stared at him for a while, then went to the dressing table to take care of her skin. Over


    the years, no matter what had happened, she had never neglected this aspect of her self-care, so her


    skin had always been soft and tender.


    The night was cool, and a breeze entered the bedroom. Madelyn sniffled.


    Benjamin heard the sound and extinguished his cigarette, closing the window.


    He gazed at Madelyn.


    She was taking care of her skin, gently opening her bathrobe and applying skincare products to her


    body.


    From behind, her slender, fair shoulders and legs didn''t show any signs of pregnancy. Probably


    because she had just been loved by a man, her entire body had a faint pink tint, which was very


    tempting.


    In fact, during their recent encounter, he had also had a very enjoyable experience with her body.


    She was pregnant...


    He had held back and only had her twice!


    In Benjamin''s memory, this counted as his first time, and it felt really good, especially when she cried


    and said no, it was particrly enticing and made a man want to continue to dominate her...


    He thought that the quality of their marriage should be pretty good.


    After all, men were sensory creatures, and sometimes, sex was more important than emotions.


    Benjamin considered himself no saint. He knew that after trying her once, he would want to do it a


    second time. However, he also understood that making a woman willingly engage with him required


    some effort.


    For example, if he never came home, she wouldn''t give him a warm reception.


    Benjamin leaned against the wall and said in a slightly deep voice, "Joseph. I remember he''s mine!"


    Madelyn''s hands paused.


    After a moment, she smiled faintly and asked, "Do you want to transfer him elsewhere?"


    Benjamin was quite proud, and he could certainly transfer Joseph away if he wanted to. However,


    doing so would make it seem like he cared too much about his wife, so he just snorted softly, "You''ve


    gotten used to it, so I won''t take away something you like!"


    Madelyn continued to apply skincare products...


    In the bedroom, it was quiet.


    After a while, Benjamin suddenly spoke up, "I''ll move back in tomorrow!"


    Madelyn set down the bottles and jars, gently tightened her bathrobe, and turned to look at him.


    Benjamin didn''t exin further.


    The next day, he indeed moved back in.


    One suitcase containing two sets of everyday suits...


    In the evening, as soon as he returned, he went into the study.


    Benjamin was very busy.


    Madelyn opened the suitcase and looked at the sparse contents, smiling faintly with a touch of


    bitterness.


    He wasn''t moving back in; he clearly wanted a free, long-term bedpanion. Perhaps he had


    enjoyed theirst encounter, so he longed for her body and took the initiative to return...


    However, when a man came back on his own, a woman had no reason to send him away.


    Madelyn hung his suits carefully and descended the stairs slowly.


    Servants was busy setting the table, and upon seeing Madelyne downstairs, they joyfully said,


    "Mr. rk is back, and a few of us chipped in to add some dishes. Madam, please don''t mind!"


    Madelyn looked at the dishes.


    There were a few rather expensive items, and the ingredients alone would cost a lot.


    She smiled faintly, thanked the servant, and made a mental note to reimburse themter. They were all


    hardworking individuals, earning fixed wages each month.


    She asked them to call Benjamin for dinner.


    After one of them went upstairs, the servant quickly came back down, looking somewhat uneasy.


    "Madam, Mr. rk said his flight is at 10 o''clock tonight, and there''s not enough time for dinner!"


    "Ah, he''s going on a business trip..." she thought.


    So, that suitcase was for his business trip!


    Madelyn lowered her gaze and smiled gently. "It''s alright. Let''s all have dinner together!"


    She went upstairs anyway, like all virtuous wives, helped him repack the suitcase, and finally came to


    the study door. She knocked lightly. "Ben, are you going on a business trip?"


    Benjamin had just sent thest email.


    He responded, "Yes, probably for three days!"


    He packed up his briefcase, held it in his hand, and looked at Madelyn''s belly. "You''ll be fine, won''t


    you?"


    Madelyn smiled faintly. "I should be."


    Benjamin nodded.


    He made a phone call while picking up his luggage, then left for his business trip with efficiency.


    Three dayster, he returned at night.


    Madelyn was already asleep, and he quietly entered the room, put down his luggage, undressed, took


    a shower... and then, he woke Madelyn up and passionately made love to her twice.


    Late at night, Benjamin fell asleep.


    But Madelyn couldn''t sleep; she could guess his intentions.


    His move back home wasn''t to be an affectionate couple with her. It was to legally satisfy his physical


    needs.


    Madelyn turned on her side, her hand peeking out from under the nket, gently caressing his


    handsome features, and her red lips slightly parted. "You''re quite a scoundrel! There''s nothing I can do


    to resist you!"


    Benjamin rarely socialized now; he was swamped with work. He treated Everest well, and Everest liked


    him.


    However, privately, he was still distant with Madelyn, except during their intimate moments. It was


    neither good nor bad, all the elements of a marriage were there, but itcked affection!


    Benjamin was satisfied!


    A man''s ultimate goal was power, a wife, and children, and he had them all at once.


    His wife at home was also receptive to his advances.


    He had nothing toin about!


    But Madelyn wasn''t satisfied. She had tasted the best love in the world, and now she had a physical


    rtionship, but it wasn''t the same Ben as before...


    Life passed uneventfully, but she couldn''t change it. Over time, even the people around them thought


    they were a loving couple.


    The five years of memories that Benjamin had lost seemed insignificant, and only Madelyn would taste


    the bitterness in the loneliness after every intimate encounter in thete night.


    Yes, deep down, she was lonely.


    She had tried, she had been considerate and gentle with him, the model of a virtuous wife.


    But she couldn''t prate Benjamin''s heart. She couldn''t get his affection. He treated her as a wealthy


    man should treat his wife, ensuring stability and allowing her to bear him a clean heir without worries!


    When she was eight months pregnant, Benjamin stopped touching her.


    He started socializing more.


    Madelyn didn''tin.


    During the first snowfall of early winter, she gave birth to the eldest grandson of the rk family,


    Francis.


    He was born full-term and weighed 3.5 kg.


    Alexander was overjoyed and, even though Eloise scolded him for being old-fashioned, he didn''t admit


    it. "Everest and Francis are equally important to me!"


    In reality, when it came to doting, he favored Everest the most.


    However, for the sake of the rk family''s future, it had to be Francis who carried on the family name.


    But Alexander would never admit it.


    Eloise rolled her eyes at him.


    She took care of Madelyn attentively and brought the newborn over. "Madelyn, take a look, he looks


    just like you!"


    Madelyn, although exhausted, leaned over to take a close look at the child. He did resemble her, with


    his deep brown hair and delicate features, especially his dainty nose...


    Alexander said to Brianna, "Look at their genes, so strong. They all take after the Ryan family!"


    Coincidentally, Benjamin pushed the door open and entered.


    Despite being a father of two now, he remained impably handsome.


    He bent down to kiss Madelyn and then looked at their son on the small bed, whispering, "You''ve


    worked hard!"


    Madelyn gazed at him intently, then smiled softly.


    Benjamin went to pick up his son, and all the rk family members were busy ying with the child,


    discussing who the baby resembled and how cute he was, and talking about how to take care of him...


    Madelyn turned away; she thought she was being too sentimental.


    With two children, Benjamin had finally settled down, so what more could she ask for?


    But amid all this festivity, she felt incredibly lonely.


    In her heart, she missed the Benjamin who had loved her. She didn''t know if, in the future, they would


    forever live this respectful and distant life.


    He was busy with work.


    She had to work too, in addition to taking care of two children.


    Forever, forever...


    He didn''t know that she was still waiting for him, waiting for him toe back...

 Chapter 277 Madelyns Transformation

    Chapter 277 Madelyn''s Transformation


    Chapter 277 Madelyn''s Transformation


    In the VIP ward, everything was harmonious.


    Madelyn''s eyes were moist.


    Only Eloise noticed, and she felt sad. Eloise made up an excuse to go outside and get some fresh air.


    Unexpectedly, she ran into Keh outside.


    Keh was in Vadiff for a meeting, and as soon as the meeting ended, he took a private jet and came


    specifically to see Madelyn and little Francis!


    At the door, he saw Eloise.


    He hadn''t seen her in a long time, and although he was usually busy, he realized how much he missed


    her when he saw her now. He saw her eyes were teary and couldn''t help but speak more gently,


    "What''s wrong? Didn''t the childe out fine?"


    With that, he handed a gift to Kaleb, the secretary. "You go see Madelyn and the child first."


    Kaleb nodded, knowing that it was rare for them to meet. She went in.


    Keh pulled Eloise aside into an empty and secure corridor, closing the green iron door. He gently


    removed her hand covering her eyes. "You''re all grown up. Why do you always cry?"


    "You don''t need to worry about it!"


    Eloise turned away, her eyes red.


    Keh smiled and took out a cigarette, lighting it and taking a slow drag. "Let me guess, is it because


    of Madelyn?"


    Eloise was upset that he had figured it out, but even more upset in general.


    After all, there was someone who understood her, but not Madelyn!


    In the past few months, this was the first time Eloise was nice to Keh . She even cried in front of


    this man she despised, "Everyone thinks Madelyn is happy, but I know she isn''t! Benjamin is back, but


    he doesn''t remember Madelyn, and yet she loves him so much!"


    If it wasn''t love, if it wasn''t attachment...


    Which woman could endure her husband''s neglect?


    Keh quietly smoked his cigarette.


    He knew everything that Eloise had said, but what could he do?


    Madelyn and Ben had so much history, they had once loved each other so deeply, and anyone who


    knew about it couldn''t bear to see Madelyn give up... including Keh.


    He felt sorry for Madelyn; from beginning to end, everything rted to Eleanor was not her fault.


    Benjamin had only done what a husband should do.


    However, Madelyn would have to repay it with her entire life!


    Keh tilted his head slightly, a glimmer in his eye.


    He thought of his own sister, Madeline, and thought of himself. He thought of Madelyn... the children of


    the Ryan family seemed destined for difficult love lives.


    ...


    When Keh entered the hospital room, Benjamin sent his parents away.


    In the hospital room, besides Madelyn, there was only Kaleb, who smiled and said, "Mr. Ryan is here!"


    Madelyn remembered.


    Keh quickly stopped her, saying, "Why are you getting up? Aren''t you afraid of the pain?"


    He was always concerned about her, patting her head and asking about the childbirth.


    Madelyn smiled faintly. "I''m fine! It''s much easier than giving birth to Everest!"


    These words made Keh even more ufortable, and he casually yed with little Francis for a


    while, saying nonchntly, "If you''re not happy here, you cane back to Vadiff for a while! Grandma


    is not in good health and can''t take a ne, but she''s eagerly waiting for you and the two children day


    and night!"


    Madelyn understood his intention and looked at little Francis, saying softly, "I''ll go back in a while!"


    Keh gave a faint smile, not insisting.


    Just then, Benjamin returned with Everest after seeing off his parents.


    Everest immediately clung to Keh and asked to be held.


    Keh usually doted on her the most. When it came to the children in the family, no one could


    He intentionally picked up Everest and said to the secretary, "Let''s two old men learn how to take care


    of children. Come on, let''s take Everest outside for a walk!" He wanted the couple to have some time


    together.


    Everest happily clung to Keh''s neck...


    Keh let her ride on his shoulders and left.


    The hospital room returned to tranquility. Madelyn gently pulled up the nket and smiled. "With all the


    Benjamin looked at her and thought about what Keh had said earlier.


    He had more or less guessed that in this rtionship, Madelyn felt wronged.


    However, after several months of being together, neither of them was willing to broach deeper topics.


    After all, she was attached to this marriage.


    As for him, he slowly realized that this marriage was more beneficial than detrimental to him.


    Madelyn fell asleep.


    He sat on the sofa, quietly watching her with a pensive expression.


    Just as he seemed lost in thought, Francis woke up!


    The healthy baby boy cried loudly, and his little face turned red from crying.


    Madelyn naturally woke up, watching the little guy and softly saying to Benjamin, "He''s probably


    hungry! Bring him over, and I''ll feed him."


    Benjamin gazed deeply into her eyes.


    He gently picked up the baby and ced him in Madelyn''s arms, but he didn''t leave.


    Francis was Madelyn''s second child, but this was her first time nursing a newborn. Her movements


    were a bit awkward as she unbuttoned her clothes and carefully adjusted Francis so he could feed.


    The baby eagerlytched on and started suckling.


    Benjamin casually touched his son''s hair and let his gaze linger on Madelyn''s body. He nonchntly


    Her body was simply tempting!


    Benjamin hadn''t touched her in almost two months, and now he couldn''t help but feel some desires


    stirring. Madelyn was focused on feeding the baby and didn''t notice his unusual behavior.


    Francis made a "popping" sound.


    Benjamin''s gaze grew even deeper...


    Francis was especially well-behaved, and after finishing the feeding, he fell asleep.


    Madelyn wanted to fasten her clothes, but her other side was a bit painful, probably due to


    engorgement. She wanted to express some milk to relieve the difort, but with Benjamin beside


    her, she felt embarrassed to do so.


    Early in the morning, Benjamin was still asleep on the sofa.


    Madelyn felt much more rxed, so she supported herself against the wall and walked to the


    bathroom, unfastening her clothes.


    This was her first time doing such a thing, and she was a bit nervous and fumbling...


    The bathroom door was gently closed.


    Benjamin hugged her from behind, kissed the soft flesh behind her ear, and murmured, "I''ll do it!"


    Madelyn was startled.


    She met his gaze in the mirror!


    Benjamin was polite with his words, but his actions were not so restrained. Madelyn didn''t know if he


    had deliberately learned, but his technique was quite skilled, as if he was naturally talented...


    She closed her eyes, afraid to look at the scene in the mirror.


    She knew how embarrassing she must look!


    "Is it still painful? Is it morefortable now? If it''s ufortable, I''ll do more!"


    ...


    He whispered those words in her ear, and Madelyn knew he was doing it intentionally. She clutched her


    clothes tightly, pulling them up and whispered, "That''s enough, I''m much better now."


    But the next moment, he lifted her onto the bathroom sink.


    Benjamin remembered that she had just given birth. He ced one hand beneath her and let her sit on


    the sink, while his other hand unceremoniously moved her clothing aside, his voice husky and


    seductive. "This height is just perfect!"


    After saying that, he lowered his head and did what he had wanted to do since yesterday.


    It was the first time he had been so unrestrained in front of Madelyn.


    When it was over, he rested against her shoulder, breathing heavily.


    Madelyn deeply loved him and was somewhat entranced. She couldn''t help but murmur, "Benjamin, do


    you have even the slightest liking for me?"


    Benjamin continued to kiss her.


    He liked her body, which was genuinely soft.


    He nestled by her ear and whispered, "Do you think our life now is bad?"


    Madelyn tilted her head and kissed his chin.


    In this atmosphere, she was willing to open up and speak her mind. She whispered, "I don''t know,


    Benjamin, I think I''m not satisfied."


    What she wanted was simple, just his love. Even if he never regained his memory for the rest of his life,


    as long as he loved her, it would be enough.


    ...


    Perhaps adding a child had improved their rtionship slightly.


    Benjamin came to the hospital every day to see the baby.


    On the day Madelyn was discharged, he personally came to pick her up with Everest and prepared


    many gifts for her, mostly precious jewelry that women liked.


    At night, he would also wake up to take care of the newborn!


    Even Madelyn herself felt that he liked her to some extent. Their marriage was slowly stabilizing.


    She was a contented woman.


    Happiness was written all over her face.


    On Francis''s one-month birthday, they didn''t have a big celebration, but Benjamin came back a bitte


    from work, around nine o''clock. He brought gifts for Madelyn and held Francis for a long time.


    On a cold winter''s day, Madelyn sat by the vi''s firece, her face beaming with happiness.


    The next day was the weekend, and Madelyn received a phone call.


    It was from Paisley, inviting her to a coffee shop for a chat.


    Madelyn held her phone, feeling somewhat dazed...


    She knew Paisley, who was very polite and discreet. If it weren''t for something important, Paisley would


    never have invited her out shortly after Madelyn giving birth.


    In the end, Madelyn decided to go out.


    Inside the coffee shop, Paisley was already seated. When she saw Madelyn approaching, she greeted


    her softly. "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn sat down opposite her.


    She ordered a ss of lemon water and took a few sips before asking in a soft voice, "Is it about Ben?"


    Paisley pursed her lips.


    Madelyn had a hunch and smiled faintly. "Is it about women?"


    Paisley gently ced a photo on the coffee table, her voice low. "Madelyn, if it weren''t for the unusual


    circumstances, I wouldn''t have told you on the second day after your baby''s full moon!"


    Madelyn picked up the photo, and her originally fairplexion lost color.


    It was too simr!


    Incredibly alike, just like the 22-year-old Eleanor!


    A pure, untarnished Eleanor!


    Paisley''s voice quivered. "This girl is called Charlotte Lorne, 22 years old, a poor college student


    sponsored by thew firm for the past few years. Benjamin arranged for her to intern at the firmst


    month!"


    Last month...


    In other words, when she was giving birth!


    Madelyn''s fingers tightened.


    Paisley said with certainty, "Benjamin definitely has no inappropriate rtionship with her, but I feel this


    girl is not simple; there''s ambition in her eyes!"


    Madelyn lowered her head and smiled lightly. "She must know who she looks like!"


    After saying that, she stood up and smiled at Paisley. "If you are troubled by Ben because of this,e


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    to me!"


    Without waiting for Paisley''s response, she walked out alone.


    She hade to the coffee shop feeling confident and radiant, but now she felt a chill run through her


    body!


    It turned out that the happiness of these days had been her own illusion!


    ...


    Madelyn returned to the vi.


    The maids greeted her. "Mr. rk called and said he would being homete tonight. He asked you


    to have dinner first!"


    Madelyn nodded. "I know."


    She slowly walked upstairs, but when she reached the middle of the staircase, she suddenly stopped.


    "Could youe up and help me pack some things... um, it''s the gifts that Mr. rk gave me a few


    days ago. Pack them up and leave them at the door!"


    The housekeeper remained silent.


    At nine o''clock in the evening, Benjamin returned home on time and saw a pile of things at the door.


    "Where did thesee from?"


    The maids hesitated but said, "These are the gifts that Mr. rk gave to Madam recently. Madam said


    she wanted to get rid of them!"


    Benjamin frowned and ascended the stairs slowly.


    Madelyn was in the master bedroom, sitting at the dressing table, applying makeup. She used to prefer


    a natural look, but this time, she had gone for a rather seductive makeup style. She had also changed


    into a ck tight-fitting evening gown and adorned herself with millions worth of jewelry around her


    neck.


    Benjamin entered the room and looked around. "Where are Everest and Francis?"


    Madelyn''s gaze met his reflection in the mirror.


    After a while, she slightly parted her red lips and calmly said, "I discussed it with my parents, and for


    now, we''ve sent them to stay with them for care."


    Benjamin approached her.


    She stood up, seductively reaching out to ce her hand on his shoulder, her breath intoxicating. "In


    the future, I''ll have more time to take care of you, my dear husband!"

    A photo was gently put into his jacket pocket.


    Madelyn considerately straightened his suit jacket with slender hands and gently smoothed it out.


    Benjamin looked Madelyn in the eye and pulled out the photo.


    It was the firm''s new trainee, Charlotte!


    Benjamin walked to the end of the bed and sat down, gently loosened his tie, and smiled lightly. "Is that


    what this is about? It''s just a trainee. I''m not entirely sure what all the fuss is about."


    "Just a trainee?"


    Madelyn walked slowly to him, bending down and murmuring, "Benjamin, you''ve crossed the line! You


    think I''m a pushover?"


    Benjaminughed softly and reached out to stroke Madelyn''s delicate cheek.


    Madelyn hated Benjamin''s flirtatious movement and tried to avoid him, but he quickly grabbed her waist


    and flirtatiously stroked it.


    "Oh, really?"


    "What about you? Do you love me?"


    "When I made love to you, you put your arms around me and called me Ben... Is it me or the guy you


    remember that you were calling out to? Huh?"


    "Madelyn, I''m just a stand-in!"


    "Don''t take the moral high ground with me."


    ...


    Madelyn''s heart ached badly!


    Madelyn smiled coldly, her eyes downcast. "Benjamin, the only reason you''re talking so much is that


    you don''t want to fire her! Let me ask you something. Is it a trainee or your youthful regret you want to


    keep?"


    "Benjamin, you sleep with me and enjoy the perks of married life while you keep a trainee around you...


    You disgust me!"


    Madelyn picked up the photo.


    She tore it to shreds in front of Benjamin!


    Benjamin leaned back, and his eyes lit up as if he had never seen Madelyn before!


    After a long time, Benjaminughed softly. "So I married a tigress!"


    With that, Benjamin reached out and pulled Madelyn down on hisp.


    They made physical contact, and things started to get a bit sexy...


    Madelyn gently lowered her eyes and said coldly, "It''s been less than 42 days since I gave birth. Are


    you that horny?"


    Benjamin did want to have sex with Madelyn.


    But Madelyn''s words dampened his sexual appetite!


    Of course, if they were real with each other, they would have no reservations and would not have to


    maintain their covers. Benjamin gently pinched her cheeks. "I can''t help myself. Mrs. rk, I want to


    have sex with you whenever I see you."


    Madelyn pushed him away, got up, smoothed out her clothes, and pushed open the door to the master


    bedroom...


    She didn''t go back to the master bedroom that night.


    Benjamin knew she was sleeping in the guest room and guessed she was probably in the study


    thinking about ''Ben''!


    It was true that they were experiencing marital problems!


    She loved her husband...


    But he didn''t remember her. He spent over six months with her. He had actually tried, but he didn''t have


    the simr feeling of being in love.


    There was a pile of shredded paper on the floor...


    Benjamin thought he would have done what she asked tonight if he loved her.


    But he didn''t love her. They were just a couple who didn''t love each other, and now they didn''t bother to


    act like they were a loving and loyal couple anymore...


    Benjamin felt relieved!


    He thought it would be better to have a simpler marriage, such as raising children together and having


    sex a couple of times with the lights off on weekends when they had sexual needs...


    He felt so stressed when it came to romance problems!


    But Benjamin soon learned that Madelyn was determined to punish him instead of letting it go after


    having a whinge about it.


    When he returned home from business dinners, she wasn''t home most of the time.


    The maid said Madelyn spent the night at the rks'' mansion with the two kids!


    Even when Madelyn was at home, she rarely slept in the same bed as Benjamin...


    ...


    A weekter, at the Bravo Legal Firm.


    Benjamin sat quietly in therge office, his chin resting on his long middle finger...


    Paisley finished his report, smiled, and said, "Tomorrow is Saturday. Mr. rk, have a good weekend!"


    Benjamin came back to his senses and forced a smile.


    Paisley was just about to offer some tips on how to increase couples'' bonding when the office door was


    gently pushed open and a slender figure walked in. She was a young, good-looking woman named


    Charlotte, the trainee.


    Benjamin frowned.


    Paisley asked, "You need something?"


    Charlotte held up a small box of cake and said, somewhat timidly, "Mr. rk, it''s my birthday! It''s a


    cake I made myself. And this is for you..."


    Benjamin nced at Paisley.


    Paisley took it and put it on the desk. "Thank you!"


    But Charlotte did not leave, biting her lip, looking attractive. "Actually... A few of my colleagues throw a


    birthday party for me. Mr. rk, Paisley, I would like to invite you to join us!"


    Paisley cursed in his heart, "She''s such a phony, scheming bit*h!"


    Benjamin rejected her. "I''m not going! By the way, do not enter my office without being called!"


    Charlotte did look a lot like Eleanor.


    And Charlotte was obviously hitting on Benjamin!


    However, Benjamin had no sexual desire for Eleanor, let alone Charlotte! Benjamin was just... Eleanor


    died. Benjamin was sad when someone, who looked so much like Eleanor, appeared before him.


    Benjamin just wanted Charlotte, who got Eleanor''s face, to be on the right track.


    Even though Madelyn argued about it quite violently with Benjamin, he didn''t fire Charlotte!


    Benjamin''s refusal made Charlotte feel ashamed.


    Charlotte sobbed. "Mr. rk, I didn''t mean anything that way!"


    "Get out!"


    Charlotte covered her face and left, and the door closed behind her.


    Benjamin closed the file and said softly, "The weekend ising. You order a bouquet for me!"


    Benjamin was going to pick Madelyn up.


    Paisley said yes with a smile!


    ...


    Madelyn was busy working out and practicing yoga recently.


    Vivian heard that Madelyn was in better shape after working out, so she came to work out with


    Madelyn. After working out for less than half an hour, Vivian was exhausted. Looking at Madelyn, who


    didn''t look tired at all, Vivian was envious and said, "Madelyn, you''re incredible. You haven''t felt tired


    after working out for so long!"


    Madelyn switched to another Yoga pose.


    The fitness instructor left sensitively.


    Madelyn rubbed some lotion on her waist and said mockingly, "I''ve had two children, and I''m nothing


    Vivian disagreed.


    Madelyn had a curvy body withrge breasts and a thin waist...


    How could ordinary younger girlspare to Madelyn?


    Vivian stroked Madelyn''s body. When they were horsing around, Gloria came in and whispered, "Ms.


    Green, there''s a youngdy who wants to see you!"


    Madelyn asked in a t voice, "Did she say anything?"


    "She said herst name is Lorne!"


    Madelyn slowly wiped her sweat off with a towel, and then said softly, "Let her in!"


    Gloria opened the door and went out.


    Vivian said scornfully, "Is that the girl you told me aboutst time? It can''t be. Eleanor clung to


    Benjamin back then and wanted so badly to be Benjamin''s girlfriend, but Benjamin didn''t end up falling


    in love with her!"


    Madelyn smiled. "That''s a universal thing for men!"


    Vivian rolled her eyes.


    Soon Gloria came in with a very young girl. The girl was very beautiful and was a bit nervous. When


    she came in, she whispered, "Mrs. rk!"


    Madelyn was stretching...


    Charlotte got jealous when she saw Madelyn''s thin waist and straight legs.


    Charlotte even imagined in her head that Mr. rk was lying on top of Madelyn''s awesome body,


    reveling in the pleasures of the flesh at night!


    Charlotte was so jealous just thinking about it, and bit her lip!


    Madelyn didn''t respond to Charlotte right away.


    Madelyn finished a couple of stretches before turning around to look at the girl in front of her!


    Madelyn thought, "Hmm... Charlotte is such a conniving beauty! But she doesn''t look as pale and


    delicate in person as she does in photos. Besides, she is coy and self-conscious."


    Madelyn still remembered how stunning Eleanor was the first time she met her.


    Madelyn felt better when she thought about it that way.


    Gloria kindly handed Madelyn a bottle of water and a towel. "Ms. Green, drink some water!"


    Madelyn leaned on a bar, took a few sips, and looked at Charlotte with a faint smile, "What do you want


    to see me about?"


    Charlotte''s red lips tremble slightly...


    Charlotte whispered, "Mrs. rk, I know you have a problem with me, but please don''t go that far! I''ve


    been looking forward to my birthday party for a long time, but my colleagues told me they''re not going


    to my birthday party. I know you''re behind it!"


    Birthday party?


    Charlotte''s colleagues wouldn''t show up at her birthday party?


    Madelyn guessed that it was Paisley''s idea. Who would dare associate with Charlotte if words about


    that got out?


    Madelyn thought, "Paisley is reliable!"


    Madelyn smiledzily, "Really? Why didn''t I know?"


    Madelyn gave a look to Gloria, who then took the bottle of water from Madelyn''s hand. Madelyn


    continued doing her stretches... Madelyn spoke softly, "Ms. Lorne, you''re young and pretty. Why do you


    have to get involved with a married man? You do look quite a bit like Ben''s first love... He may


    asionally look at your face and reminisce about past rtionships. I don''t really mind that, but he''d


    never have anything to do with you!"


    Charlotte''s self-esteem was bruised.


    Charlotte hadn''t expected the noblewoman in front of her to reveal the truth so easily.


    Charlotte thought, "How dare she?"


    Madelyn''s nose was dripping with sweat as she said dismissively, "You probably don''t know that no one


    is allowed to mention Eleanor in our family. There was no chance that Eleanor would marry into the


    rk family before, not to mention you!"


    Charlotte didn''t believe it.


    Charlotte thought of herself as a young beauty and did not believe that she could notpare to


    Eleanor.


    Besides, Benjamin would be here in a minute...


    Charlotte had a de in her hand. Her eyes were wet with tears as she pressed the de against her


    pretty little face. "Mrs. rk, you''ve got me wrong. I''ve never wanted to break up your family, and it''s


    not my fault that I look like Eleanor! If... If you hate my face that much, I''ll just destroy it!"


    Madelyn blinked lightly.


    Madelyn asked Gloria, "What school did Ms. Lorne go to, Gredax Academy of Drama or Gredax Film


    Academy?"


    Gloria cleared her throat lightly. "She majored in history!"


    Madelyn nodded and continued to work out. But at this moment, in front of Charlotte stood six


    incredibly strong, ck-d bodyguards...


    Charlotte went pale. She did not realize Madelyn was so guarded.


    Madelyn said carelessly, "If you want to ruin your face, make it quick! When Benes overter, you


    can tell him that I bully you, and ask him to take you to the hospital!"


    Madelyn was upset after saying that.


    Back then... didn''t Eleanor y this game?


    The de in Charlotte''s hand fell to the ground, and her red lips trembled. "Mrs. rk, I won''t break up


    your family!"


    With that, Charlotte turned around and ran away.


    Madelyn smiled very softly, guessing that Benjamin was already here...


    Sure enough, Charlotte bumped into Benjamin at the door.


    Charlotte more or less wanted to throw herself at Benjamin!


    Benjamin held her up, frowned, and said to Madelyn, "What''s she doing here?"


    Before Madelyn could say anything, Charlotte said with her voice trembling, "I''m sorry, Mr. rk, I


    didn''t mean to break up your family. Please assure Mrs. rk that I am not lying!"


    Madelyn couldn''t help but roll her eyes.


    Benjamin sent Charlotte away. Vivian and Gloria left sensibly. After working out, Madelyn rubbed


    massage cream on her waist and gently rubbed it until it wasfortably warm.


    Madelyn already had a thin waist, and it looked even tauter after she worked out.


    Her waist was slender, and her skin was soft. He could hold her around the waist with one hand.


    Benjamin took the massage cream, held her still with one hand, and gently massaged her waist with


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    the other.


    Madelyn lifted her chin, and she narrowed her eyes slightly at him.


    Madelyn was attractive with a hint of provocation in her eyes. Benjamin really wanted toy on top of


    her and have sex with her, but he knew that Madelyn was seducing him deliberately and was not going


    to make love to him!


    Benjamin leaned over, and Madelyn felt his hot breath in her ear. "Your waist is so taut. Your skin is so


    hot!"


    Madelyn sneered, "Really? But I don''t think any of thatpares to Charlotte''s face!"

 Chapter 279 Arent You Seducing Me

    Chapter 279 Aren''t You Seducing Me


    Chapter 279 Aren''t You Seducing Me


    Madelyn finished her words.


    Benjamin was stung by her remarks. He was supposed to be angry, but he wasn''t. Instead, he found it


    quite amusing!


    Madelyn grabbed the massage cream and rubbed some into her skin.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn''s serene face and downcast eyes and was captivated by her radiant


    looks.


    Benjamin suddenly said softly, "She''s not as pretty as you!"


    Madelyn''s hands froze. Then she lifted one leg elegantly and continued to apply massage cream to her


    leg. Benjamin stared at her shapely leg. Even her knee was soft. He had never found anyone''s legs so


    alluring!


    Benjamin couldn''t take his eyes off her legs. The Adam''s apple in his throat moved up and down!


    ...


    Madelyn got in the car and sat in the back seat.


    Benjamin gripped the steering wheel and muttered, "Ms. Green, do you think I''m your driver?"


    Madelyn flipped through her papers.


    Hearing that, Madelyn whispered without looking up, "I''m reading the files!"


    Benjamin frowned, "You''re a woman. Why are you trying to earn so much money?"


    Madelyn suddenly smiled wickedly. "This is what my husband left me. Of course, I have to cherish it!"


    Benjamin didn''t say another word.


    He was pissed off by Madelyn.


    Unaffected by him, Madelyn continued to read the papers. Neither of them spoke again.


    Benjamin and Madelyn arrived at the rks'' mansion.


    When the car pulled up, Everest came running up to them. She was cute with tawny curls.


    Everest took Madelyn by the hand and said sweetly, "Mommy, you''re so pretty!"


    Madelyn crouched down and kissed Everest. Then she held Everest''s hand and walked slowly towards


    the vi.


    The winter sun was shining.


    Madelyn was wearing a camel coat, her hair pulled back, elegant and gorgeous. Her waist was so slim


    especially when viewed from behind. No one could tell that she had given birth to two children... Her


    waist was taut and tight!


    Since Benjamin''s return, he had enjoyed everything Madelyn had.


    Her thoughtful care, the marriage, and her adoring eyes!


    But when Madelyn''s life didn''t revolve around Benjamin anymore, of course, he felt a little bereft.


    Benjamin still wanted to sleep with Madelyn.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Benjamin didn''t follow them in but stood by the car and finished a cigarette slowly.


    He was thinking about his rtionship with Madelyn.


    He began to regret what he had said that day...


    He shouldn''t have said that Madelyn saw him as a stand-in.


    Now, Madelyn was acting like he was truly a stand-in!


    Snuffing out his cigarette, Benjamin was about to walk into the hall when Alexander came out with


    Emerson. Alexander was furious at the sight of Benjamin...


    Alexander thought, "What a piece of crap!"


    If Benjamin hadn''t pissed off Madelyn, she wouldn''t be living here every day.


    Alexander smiled coldly in a dignified manner. "Benjamin, I thought you would hang in for a good while!


    But now you''re back to see your wife and kids. What? Are you tired of the woman you keep in your


    office?"


    Benjamin was taunted by Alexander.


    Benjaminughed bitterly, "Dad, that''s not true!"


    Alexander looked deep into Benjamin''s eyes. "I''m telling you, Madelyn will definitely kill you if you cheat


    on her, physically or emotionally! But I don''t really care. I have my grandson and granddaughter


    anyway! I really don''t give a sh*t about you anymore!"


    Benjamin frowned. "I didn''t mean that!"


    "You better not!"


    Seeing that there was no sunlight getting down, Alexander took Emerson somewhere else to get some


    sun. The doctor said Emerson needed it!


    ...


    Benjamin didn''t see Madelyn for almost the whole evening.


    Benjamin didn''t want to act like he missed her very much. It wasn''t until bedtime that he pushed open


    the door of the kids'' room.


    Everest and Francis shared the same room.


    Francis was asleep, his face looking rosy and cid.


    Everest was taking a shower in the bathroom.


    Madelyn had just finished feeding the baby without pulling down her woolen dress when Benjamin


    came in!


    There was an awkward silence.


    Benjamin walked over and whispered, "Don''t you feel pain when your other breast is filling with milk


    and swelling?"


    Madelyn''s face was expressionless. "I''ll breastfeed Francis tomorrow morning!"


    "Let me help you!"


    Madelyn found Benjamin quite shameless. They were not on speaking terms right now, but it seemed


    he wanted to do every intimate thing a couple should do with her!


    Benjamin didn''t want to make things right between him and Madelyn. He just wanted to sleep with her!


    Madelyn listened to movements in the bathroom. Realizing that Everest would note out for a while,


    she wrapped her arms around Benjamin''s neck and whispered in his ear, "You want me?"


    Benjamin''s handsome face betrayed lust.


    Benjamin gripped Madelyn''s waist and pressed her body against his while murmuring, "You work out


    and do skincare. Mrs. rk, you''re trying to seduce me, aren''t you?"


    Madelyn kissed Benjamin.


    She did not have sex with him. She just gave a little peck on his lips and then stuck her tongue down


    his throat to turn him on. When he wanted more, she just rested her head on his shoulder and


    chuckled, "It''s for remarriage! Women stay in good shape to find better men!"


    Madelyn reached out one slender finger and let it trace his straight nose again and again.


    Benjamin was speechless...


    Madelyn said softly, "After all, I have two children. If I can''t make a man love me, my life will be hard!


    Benjamin, teach me how to win a man''s heart."


    Madelyn tapped her slender finger on Benjamin''s chest and slowly stroked it. "Like this way?"


    Sweat popped out on Benjamin''s forehead.


    His voice was husky. "Where did you learn that, Mrs. rk?"


    Madelyn suddenly shoved Benjamin away and quickly buttoned up her shirt. Then, she looked up at


    him, flicked her long, tawny curls, and smiled faintly, "My husband taught me that!"


    Benjamin was furious!


    But Benjamin really wanted to sleep with Madelyn. She turned him on just now, and he felt a surge of


    desire for her!


    At this moment, there was a sound from the bathroom. It was Everest getting out of the shower!


    Madelyn gathered her clothes around her and said in a serious voice, "Benjamin, I won''t sleep with you


    again until you respect our marriage."


    Right after Madelyn said that, Everest came out.


    Everest was naked and dripping wet.


    Madelyn took arge towel and wrapped it around Everest''s little body with a gentle face!


    Madelyn toweled Everest dry and dressed her in her pajamas. After dimming the light in the kids'' room,


    Madelyn leaned against the bedhead and began reading Everest a fairy tale... But Everest was only


    interested in Madelyn''s scent.


    Everest burrowed her face into Madelyn''s chest. Normally, Madelyn would breastfeed her.


    But Benjamin was there. Madelyn was gently patting Everest...


    Gradually, Everest fell asleep!


    Benjamin walked over, bent down, and kissed Everest. He then grumbled, "You sleep here every day?"


    The light was dim.


    Madelyn looked at Benjamin and said calmly, "I didn''t ask where you slept before! I hope you''ll get rid


    of Charlotte, or I''ll deal with her!"


    Benjamin sat down on the edge of the bed.


    Madelyn was soft and alluring...


    Benjamin admitted that he gotpletely smitten by beautiful women, just like any man in the world.


    Benjamin was willing to get her the stars and the moon now...

 Chapter 280 He Has a Desire to Conquer Madelyn!

    Chapter 280 He Has a Desire to Conquer Madelyn!


    Chapter 280 He Has a Desire to Conquer Madelyn!


    Benjamin suddenly understood something.


    The first thing Madelyn cared about and wanted to protect was her children first, followed by him!


    This discovery made Benjamin a little ufortable.


    He looked down at Madelyn''s soft face as if seeing another himself from her, the one with all his


    memories!


    ...


    Benjamin did notpromise with Madelyn, but the next day, he still drove back to the rks''


    mansion.


    It was gettingte, and dusk fell after sunset.


    Benjamin did not go into the house immediately but leaned against the car, lit a cigarette, and smoked


    slowly.


    The smoke rose, blurring his face.


    There were many children in the rks'' mansion, andughter came from time to time in the hall,


    which was very lively. But it was a bit strange to Benjamin.


    After smoking a cigarette, Benjamin walked into the hall.


    In the hall, there was an unfamiliar child, who was good-looking!


    At this time, the little boy was sitting on the sofa with a slightly indifferent expression, with a few toys


    scattered around him.


    Benjamin was about to ask something.


    Madelyn came over with a te of baked cookies, squatted in front of the boy, and said very gently,


    "Edward, this is freshly made. Try one!"


    Edward grabbed a few with an unnatural expression.


    "Is it delicious?" Madelyn touched his head.


    "Yes!"


    Everest approached and sat next to Edward. "Edward, Mom added a lot of milk to the cookies! Why


    don''t youe again tomorrow?"


    Edward blushed slightly and nodded.


    Benjamin frowned slightly.


    He thought that this little boy named Edward was like the little son-inw raised by the rk family!


    Everest''s little husband!


    Benjamin felt that he had to talk to Madelyn!


    In the middle of the night, after waiting for the children to go to bed, Benjamin walked into the children''s


    room and knocked on the door. "Are you free? I want to talk to you about something, about Everest


    actually!"


    Hearing that Benjamin said it was about Everest, Madelyn was willing to talk to him.


    She looked down at Everest in her arms and said softly, "I''ll go to your room in a while."


    After a while, Madelyn opened the door of Benjamin''s bedroom.


    In the bedroom, the light was dim, and the atmosphere was a bit intimate.


    Benjamin had already taken a shower, and he was casually draped in a white bathrobe. He was in


    good shape, so he was still sexy and very attractive even just with the simple bathrobe.


    When Madelyn looked at him, he was also looking at her.


    He sneered, "Are you wearing so thick because you are afraid I will do something to you?"


    Madelyn ignored him, sat down on the sofa opposite him, and asked softly, "What do you want to talk to


    me about Everest?"


    Benjamin said bluntly, "What is the rtionship between Edward and the rk family? What''s his


    rtionship with  Everest? If I''m not mistaken, he''s type Rh-negative, right?"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled lightly. "You guessed it!"


    ...


    There was a deafening silence.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn.


    He thought, "She looks so gentle with a light pink sweater dress, but what she did was so tough!"


    Benjamin didn''t want to wake his parents, so he said in a very low but stern voice, "He''s a living


    person! Not an item you can trade! Madelyn... How much did you pay his parents?"


    ...


    Madelyn smiled in a daze.


    She knew Benjamin was using her of immorality!


    Madelyn wasn''t going to be a scapegoat!


    Even though it waste at night, she still called the assistant and said very gently, "Paisley, go to the


    After Paisley said okay, Madelyn hung up.


    Benjamin frowned.


    An hourter, Paisley camete at night and left after delivering the document.


    Madelyn handed the document to Benjamin and said, "Here''s the answer you''re looking for!"


    After Benjamin opened it, he had a vacant look.


    He was a professional inw. Before opening this document, he never thought he would do such a


    ridiculous thing!


    It was him!


    It was he who injected 30 million dors into Edward''s father''spany!


    It was he who yed golf with Edward''s father!


    It was still he who decided to let Edward apany Everest to grow up!


    It was him from beginning to end...or another self!


    Benjamin raised his eyes slightly and looked at Madelyn.


    Madelyn stood quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and then whispered after a long time,


    "Benjamin, even if I don''t want to, I have to admit that you and he are actually two people!"


    In those three years, Benjamin took care of Everest alone.


    He loved Everest deep into the bone! He could sacrifice everything!


    However, the one in front of Madelyn was rational and calm, and he was not the one he was.


    Madelyn thought, "I''m not trying to give up. I''m just feeling a bit sad."


    ...


    Madelyn stood in the dark night, looking lonely.


    Benjamin''s lips moved slightly.


    He certainly had a hundred ways to defend himself, but the words couldn''te out because Madelyn


    looked so sad at that moment!


    He wondered if she was missing...another him.


    Snow drifted up in the sky on the winter night.


    The room was fully heated, and it was very warm. A thinyer of mist appeared on the floor-to-ceiling


    window.


    Madelyn stretched out her slender fingers and scratched gently on the ss. She said in a bit gravelly


    voice, "Benjamin, you turned me into a person like you, but you''ve changed back to the way you used


    to be!"


    She thought, "He''s not what he used to be. His soul doesn''t match mine at all. Even if we do all the


    intimate things in bed, I''m always empty-minded and feel different than I usually do."


    Madelyn looked so delicate and lonely, which deeply enchanted this man.


    Benjamin walked over slowly and hugged her slender body from behind. Then he put his face in her


    ear and asked in a low voice, "Is he that good? What''s so good about him, huh?"


    He knew he shouldn''t ask, but he still did.


    "Maybe she was very hot and active in having sex with another me in bed. Her blushing face and


    charming voice were all caused by another me!"


    The thought of this made Benjamin very ufortable!


    Madelyn turned her face slightly and asked, "You wanna know?"


    Benjamin gave a positive answer and then began to kiss her from the face to the back of the ear to the


    neck... The lingering kiss was more like worship.


    Madelyn turned around gently and kissed him obediently.


    After kissing for a long time, she leaned on the side of his warm neck and murmured, "If you want to


    know, I''ll show it to you!"


    It waste at night, and Madelyn went back.


    She left a videotape for Benjamin to let him watch slowly.


    In the bedroom in ck and gray tones.


    Benjamin was wearing only a bathrobe, leaning on the oversized bed, and turned on the TV with the


    remote control casually.


    In just one second, he was shocked by the scene.

    That was thest time Benjamin and Madelyn had sex that day. He was sitting in the study, while she


    was moving up and down attentively in his arms... At that time, she was about four months pregnant.


    Benjamin watched the video intently, straightening and then curling his slender legs on the bed sheet.


    His heart raced!


    He saw himself gently grabbing Madelyn''s long hair and kissing her softly. "Madelyn, that''s enough!"


    He saw the two in the video kissing fondly.


    The blue light was glowing in the dark bedroom.


    In just ten minutes, Benjamin watched the video countless times.


    Early in the morning, Benjamin was in aplicated mood. As soon as he got downstairs, he asked a


    servant where Madelyn was .


    The servant said with a smile, "Mrs. rk went out early in the morning. It seems that she is going to


    the airport to pick someone up."


    Benjamin was somewhat disappointed.


    He sat down and drank coffee quietly, but his mind was full of Madelyn''s mncholyst night and the


    intimacy they had in that video...


    Benjamin couldn''t believe that Madelyn would be willing to do that for a man.


    Over the past six months, they had made love several times, and he thought they had a good time. But


    after watching the video, he realized that Madelyn had never taken the initiative when having sex with


    him.


    Not once!


    Maybe because of a man''s desire to conquer, Benjamin couldn''t wait to have sex with Madelyn.


    He wanted to see her fall into lust!


    But he didn''t expect her to run away early in the morning after teasing him all night!


    Benjamin had not only mes of fury in his heart but also the fire of desire.


    Hisw firm was very busy, and he was not young anymore.


    So he couldn''t let go of all business to chase Madelyn, but he was still in a sulk because of her


    behavior.


    At noon, Benjamin called Madelyn.


    Madelyn answered the phone.


    Afterst night, their rtionship waspletely different. In particr, Benjamin was quite stimted!


    Leaning on the back of his chair, Benjamin gently loosened his tie with his slender fingers, and said in a


    softer tone than usual, "There is a drama performance in the evening. I heard Eloise say that it was


    performed by your favorite actress. Shall we go to see it?"


    In the Everest Group.


    Madelyn stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, watching the snow falling outside.


    She knew that Benjamin was pursuing her. With her understanding of him, she also knew he was


    probably stimted by the video.


    He definitely wanted more!


    But Madelyn didn''t want to give him, at least not now.


    With her slender fingers, she gently stroked the icy ss and said with a soft smile, "You can''t even


    find a person to apany you to the drama, can you?"


    Madelyn''s words had more or less flirting and teasing meaning!


    Benjamin was a man, and men all liked it!


    He gave a lowugh and said frankly, "Let''s watch the drama first, and we won''t go back to the


    mansion at night. We will stay in a hotel outside. We can enjoy the snow while drinking red wine!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled lightly.


    She thought, "What he wants to appreciate is my body!"


    She said, "Your proposal is really exciting, but...I have a business banquet tonight and I have to attend


    it!"


    Madelyn lied in fact...


    She thought Benjamin might know it, but if men really wanted to pursue women, they had a lot of


    patience.


    Sure enough, Benjamin was not angry.


    He whispered, "What about the afternoon? Do you have time in the afternoon? Shall we meet?"


    Madelyn looked at the snow outside with a faint smile, thinking Benjamin really had perseverance!


    She agreed, "At 4:30 p.m., I will be in thepany''s gym for an hour."


    The gym...


    Benjamin felt a little pity, but it was better than nothing.


    Madelyn hung up the phone.


    She remembered the message sent by Paisley an hour ago. [Mr. rk fired Charlotte!]

 Chapter 281 Mrs. Clark, Remember to Avoid Arousing Suspicion!

    Chapter 281 Mrs. rk, Remember to Avoid Arousing Suspicion!


    Chapter 281 Mrs. rk, Remember to Avoid Arousing Suspicion!


    Madelyn should have been happy, but she didn''t.


    She had investigated that the Bravo Legal Firm''s funding for Charlotte did not stop.


    Madelyn scratched the ss and murmured softly, "What a scumbag! What should I do to you?"


    Outside the office, there was a knock on the door. "Ms. Green!"


    "Come in!"


    It was the vice president of the Everest Group, Joseph Herman, who came in. He held an important


    document in his hand and said, "This needs your personal signature!"


    Madelyn took it, read it carefully twice, and then signed it.


    Joseph took the document but did not leave immediately. He smiled and said, "Ms. Green, if it weren''t


    for the business dinner tonight, you''d really rx. There is a drama by your favorite actress tonight!"


    Madelyn raised her eyebrows slightly...


    She knew Joseph''s thoughts. After all, she was a mature woman.


    However, Joseph never crossed the line, so Madelyn couldn''t refuse him.


    She could only pretend not to know anything and smiled lightly. "Is that the actress, Daphne Mird?


    Her traditional opera is very well. Ben also invited me to go just now, but it''s a pity!"


    Joseph smiled slightly and left!


    ...


    At half past four in the afternoon.


    Benjamin''s car stopped at the gate of the Everest Group on time. After he pushed the car door and got


    out of the car, the employees who saw him greeted him respectfully, "Mr. rk!"


    Benjamin nodded without any words.


    He went to the gym on the second floor.


    It was snowing outside in Gredax, but Madelyn was sweating profusely from practicing yoga, and even


    her nose was beaded with dense sweat.


    Hearing the sound of footsteps, Madelyn turned her face and looked at Benjamin quietly.


    He was wearing a ck turtleneck sweater and ck casual pants, with a gray coat.


    Under the light, his features were strongly defined. and he looked elegant!


    Compared to him, Madelyn was dressed very coolly, and even her wet hair was charming.


    She smiled slightly and said, "Sit down for a while!"


    Then she continued to practice yoga.


    Benjamin was a little dissatisfied. He took off his coat and put it on the rail, asking casually, "Where are


    your bodyguards and assistants?"


    "I''m in thepany, so I don''t need so many people to follow!"


    Madelyn practiced another set of movements and then leaned on the rail. She asked with a smile,


    "How did you feel after watching the videost night?"


    Benjamin''s eyes were deep.


    He thought, "I came over here, but she still asked while knowing the answer!"


    Madelyn actually had a little affectation, but it was not annoying. On the contrary, she was very


    attractive!


    She knew men too well after all!


    Benjamin was not such an impatient man. He guessed that Madelyn already knew the news of


    Charlotte''s departure from thew firm, but he didn''t expect her to be still quite calm.


    He wondered if it was his past self who taught her to be so calm.


    Benjamin walked over, held Madelyn''s slender waist, and touched it back and forth lightly.


    He leaned close to her ear and asked, "Are you really not free at night? Madelyn... To what extent do I


    have to be so that you will care about me ande back to the vi with me?"


    Madelyn was no longer a simple little girl.


    She knew not to take a man''s sweet talk seriously, knew that Benjamin''s interest in her now was just


    because of her body, and knew that he probably had no interest in understanding other aspects of her


    at all...


    She didn''t appear interested at all and then patted Benjamin''s handsome face. "Next time! I do have a


    business!"


    Benjamin didn''t continue to ask.


    After all, they were in thepany, not at home where he could do whatever he wanted. Besides, he


    only came here to see Madelyn.


    Anyway, she really made him have a strong sexual desirest night.


    Madelyn asked her assistant to bring Benjamin coffee, as well as magazines and newspapers, to make


    sure he was not too bored while sitting.


    But his gaze only fell on her.


    Madelyn didn''t by no means half-ass fitness.


    She practiced very seriously, and those movements made anyone feel hard just by looking at them. But


    she didn''t stop, being quite willing to suffer.


    Time flew fast, and an hour passed quickly!


    Gloria came in and said with a smile, "Ms. Green, the car is ready!"


    Madelyn nodded, and then she said to Benjamin, "You''re out of luck! I have to prepare, or I''ll bete!"


    Benjamin had driven over for an hour.


    However, without saying a few words, Madelyn was about to attend a business dinner.


    Benjamin was a golden boy. He had never pursued a woman, and there were always many women


    around him. He had never heard that anyone who wanted to sleep with his wife needed to chase after


    her crazily, and he might not seed!


    But when his desire to conquer came, Benjamin felt very heady.


    Instead of being annoyed, he was gentlemanly. "Okay, get your things done first! Remember to tell the


    driver to pay attention to safety!"


    Then Benjamin pulled Madelyn''s slender waist and kissed her on the lips.


    "You look so beautiful while sweating!"


    Madelyn flushed.


    Benjamin was quite satisfied. When he walked out of the gym, he walked past a man at the door. It was


    Joseph.


    "Mr. rk!"


    Benjamin felt inexplicably ufortable as he looked at Joseph dressed in formal attire, who was


    clearly about to attend a business banquet. Benjamin frowned slightly and only nodded lightly to his


    former subordinate.


    Madelyn was unaware of the undercurrent between them.


    She said lightly, "Joe, wait for me in the car!"


    Joe...


    Benjamin clenched his fists and thought, "She only calls me Benjamin! But she called Joseph Joe!"


    ...


    Madelyn took a bath and then changed into a skirt, with a white wide-sleeved coat.


    Her assistant apanied her down the first floor.


    In front of the ck Maybach, Benjamin leaned against the car and smoked. When he saw Madelyn


    Madelyn looked at the other car, where Joseph might be in.


    Then she looked at Benjamin.


    She stroked her forehead gently, thinking, "Is he jealous?"


    Snow was drifting up in the sky.


    Madelyn walked to the recreational vehicle and then held the car door handle. "I think I''d better take the


    see objects more than 8 inches away these days, and you can practice with him more."


    Benjamin grabbed Madelyn''s hand.


    He said with his deep eyes, "I''ve asked the driver. It''s not out of my way!"


    Madelyn smiled softly, tilted her face slightly, and said, "It''s not out of your way no matter where you


    go!"


    Benjamin knew she was mocking him.


    He stopped pretending, leaned over, and whispered, "You are not allowed to be in the same car with


    him in the future! Mrs. rk, remember to avoid arousing suspicion!"


    Madelyn agreed to him!


    Diligent men should be rewarded asionally.


    Madelyn got into Benjamin''s car and sat next to him. He nced at her sideways and said in a low


    voice, "You''re pretty in this!"


    He thought the skirt inside was also beautiful.


    Madelyn lowered her eyes. "Benjamin, you used to say that."


    Benjamin''s gaze deepened slightly. After a while, he smiled lightly and said, "It seems that my


    aesthetics have not changed!"


    Madelyn turned her face away and said, "I''ve always been beautiful!"


    She acted coquettishly a little with these words.


    Benjamin''s heart skipped a beat, and he only smiled without any words.


    It was always romantic to have snow in the sky.


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Sitting next to Benjamin, Madelyn couldn''t help thinking, "If Eleanor hadn''t been able to be released on


    medical parole, that ident hadn''t happened, and Ben had still remembered everything, we would be


    very happy now..."


    Her eyes were moist.


    Suddenly, the driver jammed on the brakes.


    After letting out a low curse, Benjamin opened the car door, got out of the car, and walked towards the


    headstock of the car.


    After Madelyn was startled, she also got out of the car.


    The car hit a young girl, who was wearing only a thin cotton coat on such a cold day, with long hair


    down to block most of her face.


    Benjamin helped the girl up.


    She murmured, "I''m sorry! I didn''t mean to hit the car."


    Then she raised her face.


    Benjamin and Madelyn were both stunned.


    It was Charlotte!


    At this moment, she was really delicate and touching. She hit Benjamin''s car just right, and she just


    didn''t get seriously injured but only broke the skin.


    Madelyn was not a mean person, so she just smiled slightly and said, "Ms. Lorne, you''re so lucky!"


    Charlotte shrank.


    She bit her lip and said, "Mrs. rk, I''m sorry! I didn''t mean it!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to talk to Charlotte and said softly to Benjamin, "She''s fine, let''s get in the car!"


    But Benjamin did not move.


    He stared at the pale green pendant with a turquoise on Charlotte''s neck, which was made into a very


    special shape. He had seen the same one from another person.


    That person said that she had a younger sister in her original family, who was taken to a mountain


    area!


    When Benjamin saw the pendent, he remembered that person...


    Madelyn looked at him sideways and saw a touch of nostalgia in his eyes, but then it was reced by


    disgust.


    This kind of feeling was veryplicated!


    At this moment, a young girl ran up and helped Charlotte away...


    Snow drifted down slowly and silently.


    Benjamin turned around and said to Madelyn very gently, "You can take the driver''s car! I have to get


    back to thew firm!"


    Madelyn stood in the snow and smiled slightly.


    Her face was whiter than snow, but Benjamin didn''t notice it.


    He held her and opened the door of the ck RV for her. Then he got into his car.


    In the back seat of the car, Joseph said carefully, "Ms. Green!"


    Madelyn sat quietly and said gently, "I''m fine!"


    The car started slowly, and she saw Benjamin sitting in the car with a confused expression on her face.


    Madelyn guessed something and couldn''t helpughing at herself.


    She thought, "How could I have forgotten it? In the past, the most he said was he wouldn''t let me down


    again! Ben, you didn''t allow me to give up... However, have you ever wondered if I can bear so much


    more now?"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes lightly and said coldly, "Check Charlotte''s origin carefully!"

 Chapter 282 A Womans Body Is Delicate!

    Chapter 282 A Woman''s Body Is Delicate!


    Chapter 282 A Woman''s Body Is Delicate!


    Benjamin returned to hisw firm.


    An hourter, a document was delivered to him...


    Charlotte was 22 years old.


    She had been taken to Qrence Mountain since she was a child. Her adoptive parents died when she


    was 12 years old, and then she depended on others for a living.


    The detective skillfully took out a cigarette and held it between his lips. "Something bad happened to


    this girl when she was 16 years old, so her original family didn''t want to take her home after finding


    her."


    Something bad...


    Benjamin could probably guess.


    Seeing that Benjamin didn''t speak, the detective couldn''t help but ask, "How to do with? Bring her


    over?"


    "No need!"


    Benjamin said tonelessly, "Find her a decent part-time job, and don''t mention me!"


    Anyway, he was a mature man and could tell the admiration in Charlotte''s eyes, so he had a bit of


    sympathy for her but never wanted to get in trouble. After all, there were still problems between him


    and Madelyn.


    Benjamin and Madelyn had been a couple for more than half a year, and he could somewhat figure out


    her temperament.


    She was very possessive!


    After handling this matter, Benjamin sat alone in the office, silently in a daze.


    Snow was still falling outside the window.


    Benjamin pondered over his feelings for the dead Eleanor and his current wife Madelyn...


    He thought he liked Madelyn more or less, even if this liking wasrgely because of her appearance


    and figure!


    ...


    When he came to his senses, it was already nine o''clock.


    The night sky was ck with only the bright whiteness of snow.


    Benjamin grabbed his coat and walked out of thew firm. On the way back to the rks'' mansion, he


    saw a flower shop still open, so he stopped the car and bought a bouquet of champagne roses.


    He thought women all liked flowers!


    At ten o''clock in the evening, he parked in front of the rks'' mansion.


    The lights were off in the mansion and the living room was dark. Benjamin took off his coat and was


    about to go upstairs. A low voice came from the hall. "Where did you go? You''re back sote!"


    Then the lights went on.


    Benjamin had difficulty adapting to the light for a moment, so he blocked it with his arm, and it took him


    a while to adapt.


    Alexander sat on the sofa, with his legs crossed, and said with a displeased expression, "You still know


    this is your home, huh? If I were your wife, I would definitely divorce you! Well, you even bought


    flowers, but Madelyn doesn''t need your bouquet."


    Benjamin said helplessly, "Dad! Let''s talk tomorrow!"


    Then he was going upstairs.


    Alexander sneered, "She hasn''te back! If I were her, I wouldn''te back either! You left your wife


    on a snowy day, and only you can do this kind of thing! Ben... Let me remind you that she probably will


    be pissed off one day if you still take the road to ruin. Besides, many people are wanting to pursue her


    outside. Don''t take yourself seriously all day long!"


    Benjamin came down the stairs and put on his coat.


    "Where to go?"


    "Go back to the vi!"


    ...


    Benjamin didn''t know what was wrong with him. It was snowing, and he knew clearly that Madelyn was


    a mature woman with a driver and bodyguards around her. Nothing would happen to her, but he just


    wanted to see her tonight.


    Late at night, the car stopped in the vi.


    Benjamin got out of the car, looked up, and saw the light in the study on the second floor.


    Madelyn was here!


    Benjamin walked into the hall with the flowers. A servant came over and took the coat in his hand,


    whispering, "Mrs. rk has been in the study for a long time, and she hasn''t eaten dinner!"


    Benjamin nodded to indicate that he knew.


    When he went upstairs, he thought Madelyn might be angry. After all, he left halfway after agreeing to


    send her to the dinner party.


    He thought women always needed to be coaxed.


    In the study room on the second floor.


    Madelyn held a document, which was Charlotte''s background.


    Charlotte was Eleanor''s biological sister.


    At a young age, Charlotte smoked, got a boyfriend, and had an abortion!


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and sneered.


    She thought, "She had such a wonderful life, but now she pretends to be pure, like a clean white paper.


    See? My husband took pity on her, and for the sake of the dead, he rmended a very decent job to


    her."


    Madelyn felt depressed.


    She thought, "Anyone can approach Benjamin, except for Charlotte! I will not allow such a girl to get


    close to him, to hurt the rtives around me just because of loving but not owning like Eleanor!"


    Madelyn sat down slowly, took a lighter, and burned the document.


    The ashes burned her hand.


    The door opened, and Benjamin frowned. "What are you burning?"


    Madelyn looked up at him.


    He was still elegant, with an expensive coat and a good-looking face.


    Madelyn thought, "This is my beloved husband, but I find him very unfamiliar."


    After looking at Benjamin for a long time, she said softly, "Something from the past!"


    Benjamin walked over and handed her the flowers. Madelyn took them in her arms and then smelled


    them.


    "Do you like them?"


    "Women all like flowers!"


    ...


    Benjamin went around behind the desk, leaned over, and kissed Madelyn. He kissed her for a long time


    and said against her lips, "Are you angry?"


    Madelyn gave a positive answer vaguely.


    Benjamin smiled lightly, because of her honesty, and he thought sometimes her temperament was very


    cute.


    At night in the snow, the study room was warm.


    Benjamin kissed Madelyn and was aroused.


    Madelyn touched a small square box in his trouser pocket and remembered in a daze that it seemed to


    be 42 days after she gave birth. She suddenly realized that he rushed back tonight because he wanted


    to have sex with her.


    Madelyn sneered!


    She took out the little thing from his pocket and threw it on the desk. Under the dim light, she slowly


    said, "Benjamin, I once said that the love of three people is too crowded! Now I''m still telling you that if


    you can''t let go of the past, there''s no future between us!"


    A proud person like Benjamin was somewhat annoyed.


    He guessed that Madelyn knew what he did.


    He suppressed his anger and said, "I have nothing to do with her, and I can never like a little girl!"


    Madelyn slowly raised her red eyes.


    "You are giving her hope! She will think that you treat her special and that you take special care of her


    for the sake of her sister... She will even want to take Eleanor''s ce in your heart!"


    Madelyn ran her fingers gently across Benjamin''s chest and said slowly, "Benjamin, if you cared about


    me, you wouldn''t help her! I won''t keep waiting for you!"


    ...


    Benjamin whispered softly as if to a lover, "What do you want me to do?"


    Madelyn got straight to the point, "She has long been an adult with a sound body. Withdrew all funding


    and your special care!"


    Benjamin''s eyes were deep.


    "I assume you have found out about her tragic past. Madelyn, you have assets of billions of dors.


    Can''t you tolerate her whose sry is only one thousand dors?"


    "She is trying to seduce my husband. Do I still have to sympathize with her?"


    ...


    Benjamin slowly straightened up and looked at Madelyn, and the meaning in his eyes made her


    heartbroken.


    He pushed the door open and left.


    Madelyn didn''t catch up because she didn''t want to put herself too low.


    She sat quietly for a long time before taking out the diary from the drawer, which was left to her by


    Benjamin... She slowly looked through it, her eyes gradually moist.


    She thought, "Ben would not be willing to treat me like this! Before he lost his memory, our daughter


    and I were his most important people, and he wouldn''t annoy me just because of anyone named


    Charlotte!"


    That night, Madelyn did not return to the master bedroom.


    Madelyn and Benjamin slept in different beds and had different dreams!


    Early in the morning, when Benjamin woke up, he touched the position beside him, which was empty.


    Then he realized that Madelyn did not return to the room.


    He went downstairs after washing up and saw the bouquet of roses in the trash can in the stairwell.


    The servant was very embarrassed and whispered, "Mrs. rk went to thepany early in the


    morning!"


    Benjamin said faintly, "I see!"


    He slowly went downstairs and his gaze fell on the piano. He recognized that it was yed by Louis II,


    called Morning Dew!


    "Madelyn, do you like it?"


    "Madelyn...You are my little Morning Dew!"


    ...


    Benjamin''s head ached for a while, and the pain was so unbearable. Those words kept shing in his


    mind, but they disappeared in an instant, and he couldn''t remember anything when he was sober.


    The servant looked at his expression and said softly, "I heard that this piano was given to Mrs. rk by


    you. It''s too expensive!"


    She made a gesture and continued, "It''s worth 85.7 million dors!"


    Benjamin thought, "What? 85.7 million dors? Was I crazy before?"


    But he still walked over, opened the piano lid, and yed a piece of music named Moonlight Sonata


    without hesitation.


    Outside the window, there was still snow floating...


    Benjamin yed the music twice.


    Finally, his gaze settled on his slender hands and he murmured, "Did I really love her that much?"


    ...


    Madelyn gave Benjamin the silent treatment.


    She didn''t answer his calls and refused to meet him. Except for the asional sight of her in the


    rks'' mansion, he could only see her in the newspaper at other times.


    However, that was not Mrs. rk but Ms. Green!


    Benjamin was not an idle person. Since he returned to the legal profession, he had endless big cases.


    He always traveled on business, so there were fewer opportunities for him to meet Madelyn.


    During this period, Charlotte had been to thew firm to find him once.


    But he refused to see her and let Paisley tell her not toe over again!


    asionally, when Benjamin was free, he thought of Madelyn and their quarrel that night.


    He felt that it was not worth quarreling with Madelyn over Charlotte only an unrted person. But he


    didn''t like to be manipted by women, even his wife!


    The New Year wasing.


    Madelyn did a good job of developing the Everest Group. She had her own reputation in the upper


    circle in Gredax, not an essory of Benjamin.


    On the night one day, she finished attending a banquet and was dizzy when she came out!


    It was very cold outside.


    Madelyn immediately sobered up!


    When Henry saw hering out, he immediately took a coat toe over. He put it on her while


    If you catch a cold, Mr. rk and Mrs. rk must me me!"


    Madelyn was stunned.


    Only then did she realize that Henry meant Alexander and Brianna.


    She smiled and said, "I have been working out at the gym recently and I am in good health!"


    Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Henry muttered, "It''s only been two months since you gave birth to the young master. A woman''s body


    is delicate. You have to be careful!"


    Madelyn was touched.


    She whispered, "I know. I will pay attention to it in the future!"


    Henry opened the car door for her and said in a pleasant tone, "Let''s go back quickly. It''s almost the


    New Year, and the family is so lively!"


    Madelyn smiled and was about to get in the car, but a pitiful voice came from behind her.


    "Mrs. rk!"


    Madelyn froze and turned around slowly.


    Not far away, Charlotte stood thinly dressed, looking very pathetic.


    As soon as she approached, several sturdy bodyguards blocked her and prevented her from


    approaching Madelyn.


    Charlotte bit her lip and looked at Madelyn.


    The cold wind was blowing.


    Madelyn was wearing a red dress, with a good-quality coat covering her whole body.


    Behind her was a high-end recreational vehicle with wonderful lines.


    Besides, the jewelry she wore was also very expensive.


    Charlotte thought, "This woman enjoys everything that Mr. rk brought her, but she is ungrateful."


    She said with her lips trembling, "Mrs. rk, you shouldn''t have treated Mr. rk like that!"

 Chapter 283 I Have No Contact With Her!

    Chapter 283 I Have No Contact With Her!


    Chapter 283 I Have No Contact With Her!


    Madelyn gently pulled down her coat with the corners of her mouth curved up slightly.


    "Oh! How I treat my husband has nothing to do with you, Ms. Lorne."


    Charlotte bit her lip, pretending to be pure. "You are his wife, and you shouldn''t always show your face


    in public to embarrass him!"


    Madelyn sneered, "Why? Did my husbandin to you? Did he tell you that he has a hard and


    unhappy life with a wife like me?"


    Charlotte wanted to speak.


    But Madelyn said coldly, "Before you lie, think about the consequences!"


    She took two steps forward and looked at Charlotte. "You finally have a good life... If I were you, I


    would cherish my current life, instead of always fantasizing about using this face to seduce someone


    else''s husband!"


    Charlotte asked with her lips trembling, "You investigated me?"


    Madelyn patted her coat. With her power now, it was easy for her to deal with such a girl.


    But she didn''t go too far because of Benjamin.


    Charlotte was embarrassed and said, "Mrs. rk, you are too bossy!"


    Then she added, "Mr. rk won''t like a woman like you!"


    Madelyn smiled lightly and said, "Then what kind of woman do you think he''d like? A woman who


    cheats and sleeps with others, or a ygirl who sleeps around at a young age and cheats some money


    to smoke and drink?"


    Madelyn knew Benjamin.


    When he was young, he liked a spitfire like Eleanor.


    When he matured, he liked well-behaved women, especially those who were obedient to him meekly in


    bed. Of course, he didn''t mind the asional stimtion.


    He had always set the bar too high!


    Madelyn''s smile faded. "Ms. Lorne, I will give you onest chance! You will never ever show up in front


    of me and my family, including Benjamin! My patience is limited!"


    After speaking, Madelyn motioned to Henry to open the car door.


    Henry was very cooperative and bent over to open the car door. His humble behavior made Madelyn


    annoyed and amused, and she red at Henry...


    Those bodyguards also got into other cars.


    Several high-end RVs left one after another.


    Only Charlotte was dressed thinly, standing in the night, trembling.


    She felt she miscalcted.


    She had originally thought that a man like Benjamin would be easily tempted by a young girl and then


    sleep with her.


    But it was hard to even meet him, let alone to sleep with him!


    Therefore, Charlotte could only find Madelyn.


    Charlotte thought, "Madelyn is smarter than I thought. She didn''t deal with me no matter how I


    provoked her. If she didn''t do so, how can I pretend to be pitiful? How can I make Mr. rk sympathize


    with me?"


    ...


    Madelyn got in the car and never spoke.


    She was a little disgusted by Charlotte''s behavior!


    Henry said in front, "With Ben''s appearance and character, it''s normal for a woman to seduce him on


    her own initiative, but this girl really can''t read social cues!"


    Madelyn turned her face away and said softly, "She is Eleanor''s sister!"


    She thought, "These two sisters really have the same good genes!"


    Henry suddenly lost for words and then said after a while, "That''s so bad! Then Ben..."


    Madelyn''s heart was overflowing with bitterness.


    She whispered, "Even if he knows that Eleanor has hurt us, it''s useless. He hasn''t experienced it


    personally, so he can''t understand it!"


    She thought, "That''s why he easily helped Charlotte."


    Madelyn was in a bad mood and didn''t say anything more!


    Half an hourter, the car stopped in front of the rks'' mansion. Madelyn got out of the car and saw


    someone standing outside.


    It was Benjamin.


    Madelyn gently closed her coat and whispered, "You''re back from a business trip?"


    They hadn''t seen each other for a week!


    Benjamin gave a faint positive answer.


    He smelled the faint scent of red wine mixed with the smell of perfume on Madelyn''s body, which


    formed a unique fragrance.


    With such a fragrance, she was very attractive.


    Madelyn was like a ripe peach to Benjamin, very tempting.


    However, her face was a little pale, and he couldn''t help but care. "If you are not good at drinking wine,


    just don''t drink. In your status, you don''t have to socialize!"


    Madelyn smiled and closed the car door.


    Henry got out of the car, yelling, "Mrs. rk is very happy to socialize. But when she came back, she


    ran into an inexplicable person, which made her unhappy!"


    Madelyn held her forehead and pretended to be displeased. "Stop talking!"


    She was about to leave.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Benjamin grabbed her hand and asked, "What''s the matter?"


    "It''s nothing. It''s just an irrelevant person!"


    Henry said, "It''s a girl named Charlotte. She said she cared about you. She also said that Mrs. rk


    showed her face in public and didn''t care about you!"


    Benjamin was obviously startled.


    He didn''t expect Charlotte to find Madelyn again.


    He exined softly, "I have no contact with her!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and said with a faint smile, "Your care for her is regarded as contact!


    Otherwise, why would she keep harassing me? Benjamin, I don''t care if you still miss Eleanor or take


    pity on this ygirl... Let me tell you. If she dares to hurt my family, I will break her leg!"


    After speaking, she walked straight towards the vi.


    She thought, "I will never allow another Eleanor to appear!"


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn''s figure and felt that she was very angry. He took out a cigarette from his


    pocket and lit it.


    Henry came over and asked for one cheekily.


    The two smoked together.


    After a long time, Benjamin asked casually, "Has she always been hot-tempered like this?"


    Henry smiled and replied mysteriously, "She used to lose her temper! You two have been on and off


    several times and every time you couldn''t help but go to her first. Finally, she was pregnant with your


    child and you two got married directly!"


    Benjamin thought, "It was all my initiative?"


    He slowly exhaled smoke...


    Henry suddenly said seriously, "Mrs. rk loves you very much too! It was really not easy for her


    during the months when you slowly lost your memory."


    Thinking of those, Henry couldn''t bear to say anymore, and then he waved his hand and left.


    After he finished smoking his cigarette, Benjamin walked slowly into the hall.


    In the hall, it was very cheerful.


    Keh rushed over from Vadiff and said that he was there to see his son. In fact, everyone knew that


    he took this opportunity to meet Eloise...


    The rtionship between them had been ambiguous for more than half a year.


    When Madelyn went in and saw Keh, she went over and hugged him gently. "Keh, you''re


    here!"


    Keh touched her face and then said to Alexander, "She drank a lot!"


    Alexander smiled and said, "Maddie is now a heroine! She even has a say in the pile of women, which


    is better than Brianna!"


    Then he teased his wife, "Don''t you think so?"


    Brianna didn''t get jealous of her daughter-inw at all.


    She loved Madelyn even more actually. She personally ordered the servant to bring Madelyn a


    hangover soup and whispered, "You have to drink less in the future. You still have to breastfeed


    Francis!"


    Madelyn said okay and then continued softly, "I rarely drink. Don''t listen to Dad''s words."


    Alexander was just in a good mood, and he asked the servants to set up a card table, wanting to y


    cards.


    Madelyn changed her clothes and went downstairs. Alexander and Benjamin, as well as Keh, were


    already sitting at the card table.


    Benjamin''s gaze was slightly deeper.


    When he came in, he happened to see Keh touching Madelyn''s face. Although he knew that


    Keh was her uncle, he thought Keh was too young and too good-looking.


    Benjamin thought, "This man is so bad. He cares not only about my sister a lot but also my wife!"


    As soon as Madelyn sat down, Alexander threw a check for 8 million dors!


    He said with a smile, "The gift for you! Both Everest and Francis have it, but only Ben doesn''t have it!


    I''m taking it out on him for you!"


    Madelyn epted the check.


    Benjamin saw her clean face without makeup and thought she was very charming. He deliberately


    whispered, "Madelyn, give me some money to y cards!"


    Madelyn grabbed a card and said coldly, "I don''t hold your purse strings! And I don''t have money for


    you!"


    Benjamin took out a wallet from his trouser pocket and handed it to her.


    "From now on, you hold my purse strings!"


    This obvious flirtation made the elders blush a little...


    Madelyn pretended not to care about it, opened the wallet, and found a photo in it.


    It was a group photo of her with Everest and Francis.


    There was also a small square thing in the wallet.


    Benjamin said softly in an aggrieved tone, "I''ve been putting it in it for half a month! I never used it!"


    Madelyn thought he was so shameless!


    She felt her face burning and threw his wallet back to him. "You hold your purse strings by yourself!"


    She knew clearly that Benjamin was pleasing her, nothing more than because he felt embarrassed by


    Charlotte''s behavior!


    Madelyn was a little unhappy.


    She thought, "What does he mean? He has Eleanor in his heart, and what does he think of Charlotte?


    An ignorant sister-inw who has gone the wrong way?"


    All night, Madelyn was aloof. Benjamin let her win many times, and in the end, she won a lot of money


    alone. Even Alexander was jealous and said that his son was ungrateful!


    The clock rang twelve times at midnight.


    Benjamin pushed the cards and said, "I lost too much, and I don''t want to y anymore!"


    He looked at Madelyn and asked, "Go upstairs and rest?"


    Madelyn knew that he had something to say, and she was willing to give him this opportunity, so she


    smiled lightly. "I''m a little tired. Dad, Keh, you should rest early too!"

 Chapter 284 Youve Given Me the Cold Shoulder for a Long!

    Chapter 284 You''ve Given Me the Cold Shoulder for a Long!


    Chapter 284 You''ve Given Me the Cold Shoulder for a Long!


    Late at night.


    The two slowly went upstairs.


    As soon as they entered the master bedroom, Benjamin closed the door and pulled Madelyn into his


    arms.


    Her face lightly hit his shoulder.


    She rubbed against his shirt with her cheek, smelling a touch of the smell of tobo on his body.


    Madelyn knew what Benjamin wanted to do.


    She had to admit that she missed the smell.


    But she thought now was not a good chance, and she was not in the mood, so she asked in a low


    voice, "What do you want to say?"


    Benjamin looked down at her.


    He thought Madelyn was quite gentle at this moment.


    He exined, "She is just a little girl, and I can''t possibly like her! Don''t be angry, okay"


    Madelyn leaned on his shoulder and said softly, "She cares about you!"


    Madelyn didn''t quarrel with Benjamin and just wanted him to solve it by himself to give her a


    satisfactory result.


    She thought, "He is not stupid, and he should understand what I mean!"


    Sure enough, Benjamin paused and stroked her face. "She''s just an irrelevant person! Madelyn, I think


    you know clearly who I really care about! After the New Year''s Eve, we can move back to the vi. Isn''t


    it good to be like that before?"


    Benjamin spoke fondly, probably also with all his patience.


    But Madelyn couldn''t help but be disappointed.


    Her body cooled down gradually, even if the bedroom was fully heated.


    Madelyn said tiredly, "Benjamin, you still don''t understand!"


    She pushed Benjamin away and walked towards the door. When she held the doorknob, she continued


    indifferently, "I will sleep with the children! Good night!"


    Benjamin stopped her. "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes, still opened the door, and disappeared in the doorway.


    ...


    Benjamin stood for a while before slowly sitting on the sofa in the bedroom. In fact, he had a lot of


    business to deal with, but he could hardly bring himself to go into the affairs. He just wanted to hold


    Madelyn to the bed...


    He thought, "Maybe this is the inferior nature of men.


    After tasting the honey, it''s hard to quit.


    After all, I rejected the marriage very much at first, but after having sex with her, I actually started to


    enjoy this kind of family life a bit and even felt that it seemed good to have a wife and children...


    It is difficult to understand her ideas.


    I''m not interested in Charlotte at all, and what I did was just a lift of the finger!


    Maybe I have some sympathy for her.


    But that''s all!"


    In the end, Benjamin read the documents for two hours before taking a shower and sleeping.


    When he fell asleep in a daze, he felt that there was a little furry thing in the bed. He pulled it and found


    Everest in his arms with her cold feet pressing against his lower abdomen. She said, "Dad, warm my


    little feet!"


    Benjaminy t on his back, reaching out to turn on a bedsidemp.


    Everest put her arms around his neck.


    Her shaggy curly hair hung over his face like a squirrel''s tail. Her fair and tender face was close to his


    skin, and the breath she exhaled was also sweet.


    Benjamin touched her fleshy waist and couldn''t help but keep looking at her.


    He thought, "She really resembles Madelyn! But she''s 100 times more cute than Madelyn!"


    ...


    Early in the morning, Madelyn came back to the bedroom to change clothes.


    She opened the door and saw little Everest leaning against Benjamin sleeping sweetly.


    That picture was very simr to the past...


    Madelyn couldn''t help but miss it.


    She walked to the bedside and sat down slowly, looking at the sleeping man. There was no quarrel at


    this time or no trouble with his memory loss, let alone worrying about whether he loved her...


    She felt she seemed to go back in time, so she couldn''t help but murmured softly, "Ben!"


    When Benjamin woke up, he saw the tenderness in Madelyn''s eyes that had not disappeared.


    Madelyn seemed startled and wanted to run away.


    But Benjamin wouldn''t let go of such an opportunity.


    He quickly grabbed Madelyn''s hand, pulled her towards him, and said in a low voice, "Madelyn, you


    haven''t called me Ben for a long time!"


    Madelyn was forced to lie prone on his chest, and the sleeping Everest was just next to her.


    Madelyn struggled slightly and whispered, "Everest will be woken up!"


    Benjamin stared at her.


    After a moment, he carried Everest aside. Then he couldn''t wait to turn over, pressed Madelyn under


    his body, and kissed her with abandon...


    Madelyn beat his chest and said, "Benjamin, are you crazy?"


    Benjamin stopped and raised his chin slightly, his eyes full of lust.


    He pinched Madelyn''s chin gently, leaned over, and took a bite.


    He said, "You are my wife, and what''s wrong with having sex with me once? If you don''t want to do it


    with me, and who do you want to do it with? I don''t believe you don''t have physical desires!


    "I wanted to take my time, but you didn''t give me an opportunity!


    "Then let''s make love directly, huh? Anyway, we''ve been married for a few years, and you should be


    familiar with this kind of thing!"


    ...


    Benjamin was so awful, and Madelyn was so angry that she kicked him!


    She thought, "What a bastard! Everest is still here. How dare he do this!"


    Madelyn struggled while saying in a muffled voice, "Let me go. I don''t want to make love with you!"


    Without hesitation, Benjamin began to caress her all over with his slender fingers, staring down at her


    charming appearance. "But I want! I''ve been wanting you for nights!"


    Since the child was a month old, Madelyn had given Benjamin the cold shoulder until now.


    Now, he just couldn''t wait to fuck her...


    When Madelyn was about to wake Everest up, there was a knock on the door, and then a servant''s


    voice came. "Mr. rk, there is a youngdying to give you a New Year gift. Would you like to


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    meet her?"


    Benjamin''s body froze a little.


    He stared deeply at the woman in his arms and replied in a husky voice, "Let her wait a minute!"


    In previous years, clients of thew firm would indeede to visit around New Year''s Eve.


    Thinking of this, Benjamin was going to meet the woman!


    He got up, looked at Everest on one side, and then gently stroked Madelyn''s back, as if with some


    electric current. "Let''s continue after a while!"


    He considered for a while and then said in a deep voice, "Go to the guest room and wait for me, huh?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to do so.


    She thought, "If it weren''t for hispulsion, we wouldn''t have kissed so fiercely just now." Then she


    got out of bed and walked into the cloakroom.


    Benjamin looked at her expression and smiled.


    He washed up, changed his clothes, and slowly went downstairs. But when he saw the person sitting in


    the living room, he frowned slightly.


    It turned out to be Charlotte!


    Benjamin thought, "She found Madelyn yesterday and now came to our home today. What does she


    want to do?"


    He thought he didn''t give Charlotte any hope, and with her former bad behaviors, he was somewhat


    ufortable. So he said extremely coldly, "You are no longer an intern in thew firm. What are you


    doing here?"


    Charlotte raised her head suddenly when she heard the voice.


    She saw Benjamining down from upstairs, with a tall and slender figure and strongly defined


    features.


    He dressed casually at home, wearing a ck turtleneck sweater and gray wool trousers.


    He looked stunning!


    Charlotte then looked at this vi and found there were lots of servants. Everything here was what she


    had longed for since she was a child.


    She thought, "However, Madelyn has it all!"


    Charlotte hurriedly picked up the fruit basket at hand and said in a cramped manner, "Mr. rk, I heard


    that you introduced the job to me, and you funded me... I am very grateful to you!"


    She wanted to hand Benjamin the fruit basket, with arms extending.


    But Benjamin did not take it.


    He was a little unhappy because he should have hugged Madelyn and enjoyed a good time, but


    someone interrupted them. Only when he went downstairs did he find out that it was Charlotte.


    Charlotte''s eyes and her behavior...


    Benjamin certainly knew what she meant!


    He sat opposite Charlotte and asked the servant to bring him a cup of ck coffee. He said lightly, "I


    think I have to make it clear to you! You don''t have to thank me, nor do you have to give a gift! Don''t


    evere here and don''t ever find my wife again! She is very upset!"


    Charlotte said sadly, "She told you, right?"


    Benjamin drank half a cup of coffee and asked indifferently, "What?"


    Charlotte was a little embarrassed.


    She thought, "He knows my admiration, but he doesn''t care about it. His sympathy for me is just for the


    sake of my face."


    Charlotte wanted to show her feelings for him more, but Benjamin was already a little impatient. She bit


    her lip lightly and said in a quivering voice, "I don''t mean anything else. Mr. rk, I''m leaving... I won''t


    bother you again, nor will I disturb your wife!"


    After speaking, she got up, covered her mouth, and left, as if crying.


    Madelyn stood on the second floor and witnessed all this.


    She quietly watched Charlotte enter the house, just like what Eleanor had done many years ago.


    The difference was that Charlotte was very smart. She was not as capricious as Eleanor. She could


    take the hint and also knew her own advantages.


    Madelyn thought, "What a very smart angelic bitch!"


    Benjamin saw Madelyn.


    He got up and went upstairs. Then he put his arms around her waist from behind and wanted to kiss


    her.


    Madelyn pushed him away and said, "I''m out of the mood to continue!"


    Benjamin grabbed her hand. "Madelyn! I have nothing to do with her. I think you can tell it. Don''t ruin


    the feelings between us for that little thing."


    "Are there feelings between us?


    "She was able to find me yesterday ande home today. Will she invite you to her rental house for


    one night in the next step? Don''t overestimate her moral bottom line!


    "Benjamin, I said that if you don''t take a stand, we''ll still get along as in as we are now."


    ...


    When Madelyn turned around, she thought, "It''s not that I don''t want to deal with Charlotte. But it will let


    her off a bit too easy if she is not dead!"


    After a while, Madelyn changed her clothes and went downstairs, as if she was about to go out.


    Benjamin was reading the newspaper in the dining room. When he saw her change her shoes, he


    asked, "Where are you going early in the morning? Isn''t thepany on holiday?"


    Madelyn replied in a soft voice, "Of course, you can''t remember the postpartum examination!"


    After speaking, she felt wronged.


    She thought, "The current Benjamin now has all the interest in me just because he likes my body."


    Benjamin was obviously stunned.


    Only then did he remember that Paisley had put Madelyn''s medical examination on his deskst time.


    He had nced at it and didn''t take it to heart. He felt Madelyn might be missing that "Ben" at this time!


    Benjamin said without hesitation, "I''ll go with you!"


    Madelyn had no objection.


    Although she didn''t get along well with Benjamin, she wouldn''t refuse a husband''s kindness to his wife.


    After getting in the car, Madelyn leaned in the back seat and never spoke.


    Benjamin wanted to ease the rtionship with her.


    This morning, although they failed to have sex, he was really aroused. Moreover, his desire to conquer


    made him always have a dark idea in his heart, that was, he wanted Madelyn to give him oral sex


    willingly one day.


    Benjamin thought, "Of course, if she wants me to do the same, I won''t mind doing that for her.


    Moreover, I like Everest and Francis. This marriage is more and more important in my heart..."


    Thinking of this, Benjamin was willing topromise with Madelyn first.


    He gently scraped her delicate face and whispered, "Are you still angry? It''s just an irrelevant person...


    Well, thew firm will not fund her in the future. As for the part-time job, Madelyn, I have no reason to


    make another call to specifically cut off her livelihood, right?"


    "If shees again, you can''t see her!"


    "I have already told the housekeeper not to let her in again!"


    ...


    Benjamin really had the intention to make up with Madelyn, so he called Paisley in the car and asked


    her to withdraw the funding for Charlotte. He thought, "From now on, there will be no intersection


    between me and Charlotte!"


    Madelyn''s expression softened a little...


    What Madelyn wanted was not to cut off Charlotte''s livelihood, but just didn''t want Benjamin to get


    entangled with Charlotte.


    In particr, Charlotte was Eleanor''s younger sister.


    Benjamin saw Madelyn softening somewhat and couldn''t help but murmur passionately, "I''ll apany


    you to check up in a while. If there are matters needing attention, let''s pay attention together!"


    He stroked her slender waist, his voice husky. "I heard that women''s bodies are no better than before


    after they give birth to children! But, Madelyn, I feel that there is no change in your body. Your skin is


    firmer than that of young girls!"


    Madelyn squinted at him and asked. "Have you seen many young girls?"

 Chapter 285 Benjamin, I Want to Kiss!

    Chapter 285 Benjamin, I Want to Kiss!


    Chapter 285 Benjamin, I Want to Kiss!


    Benjamin smiled lightly.


    Actually, he hadn''t seen many young girls, at least not in his memory.


    But as a man, he definitely wouldn''t tell Madelyn about it. He just patted his trousers and asked


    casually, "You''ve been my wife for a few years. Don''t you know how many girls I''ve seen?"


    He then pinched her face lightly. "You get jealous so easily! You definitely know!"


    Madelyn smiled faintly.


    Benjamin looked at her pretty side face and his heart softened. He lowered his voice. "Don''t be angry!


    Let''s have a good life in the future, huh?"


    He felt that at his age and with Madelyn''s physical recovery, they would definitely have a third child!


    But he thought he would respect Madelyn''s opinion!


    It was probably because of his statement that the two of them got along much better than a while ago.


    Benjamin was busy in and out of the hospital helping Madelyn. Even Henry said, "Mr. rk looks half


    as considerate as before!"


    Madelyn sat on the bench with a ss of hot water in her hand.


    She smiled lightly, watching Benjamin walk from the opposite side. When he approached, he


    murmured, "You''re very healthy! Your body is also clean!"


    Madelyn felt her face burning.


    She pretended to look at the result inadvertently and then put it in her bag.


    Benjamin took another step forward, held her waist, and whispered, "Go shopping with me. Dad has


    assigned me a lot of tasks and didn''t worry about whether I would be tired at all!"


    Madelyn raised her head and couldn''t help but touch his handsome face. "You asked for it! Dad has


    been very critical of youtely!"


    Benjamin grabbed her hand.


    He lowered his voice. "Why does he love you so much?"


    Benjamin knew his father''s temper, and they were simr in temperament. But Benjamin didn''t expect


    his father to love Madelyn so much, almost exceeding that of Eloise. It was very obvious. And most


    importantly, Eloise was not jealous at all but was particrly close to Madelyn.


    Benjamin wondered, "How much magic does this woman have?"


    Madelyn walked elegantly towards the elevator and said, "Of course, it''s because I''m good!"


    Henry had gone downstairs first, and there were only Benjamin and Madelyn left in the elevator, so


    they were a little bold. He pressed her on the elevator wall, titited her with some skill, and murmured


    softly in her ear, "Then can you let me see how good you are?"


    Madelyn''s face was hot.


    She thought, "Benjamin is so shameless now, beyond my imagination. Do all men learn about sex


    without teachers?"


    Madelyn had no impulsive nature.


    She actually wanted to have it. The man in front of her was her beloved man, and she certainly wanted


    to do something intimate with him.


    But she knew that once she handed over everything, she would have no ace in the hole, and then


    Benjamin would manipte her at will.


    Madelyn thought, "When he gets tired of me, what should I do?"


    She put her hand against Benjamin''s shoulder and gently stroked from his belt to the belt buckles with


    her slender fingers. She said tititingly, "It depends on your behavior!"


    Benjamin was so excited by her that he took a bite in her ear.


    "You''re such a bad woman!"


    Benjamin was measured outside and did not go too far.


    The two spent a day outside. They bought not only gifts but also new clothes for the children at home.


    Madelyn even picked two suits of clothes for Edward and asked the clerk to deliver them directly to the


    Karter''s manor.


    When they went back, Benjamin drove the car.


    After driving for a while, Benjamin suddenly asked, "Do you like Edward very much?"


    Madelyn nodded and replied, "He looks very good-looking! And he is very smart!"


    Holding the steering wheel, Benjamin coughed softly. "What kind of appearance do you think is good-


    looking?"


    Madelyn nced at him.


    She knew what he meant. He just wanted to ask if she thought he was good-looking.


    Of course, Benjamin was good-looking.


    Madelyn thought he was the best-looking man she had ever seen.


    She said honestly, "You are good-looking!"


    Benjamin smiled lightly. He touched the car''s windshield and whispered, "It''s snowing again! If it snows


    heavily, we''ll have to spend the whole New Year''s Eve at home... What movies have you never seen?


    We can watch them at home."


    The snow was falling harder and harder...


    Madelyn touched the car window with her fingertips.


    In such weather, she was somewhat moved when enjoying the snow scenery with Benjamin in the car.


    While waiting for the traffic light, she yelled softly, "Benjamin!"


    Benjamin gave a positive answer.


    Then, he drove the car to another crossing and stopped on the side of the road.


    There was a slight sound.


    Benjamin untied his seat belt and then carried Madelyn in his arms... He took off her coat, leaving only


    a thin red sweater on her delicate body.


    Benjamin did not kiss Madelyn directly.


    He pressed her against the steering wheel, stroking her waist with his warm palm.


    "What do you want to say?"


    Madelyn unbound her hair and then her waist-length hair was scattered on her body with the scent of


    gardenia.


    She put her arms around Benjamin''s neck and said in a husky and sexy voice, "Ben, I want to kiss!"


    Benjamin was titited by her, and a faint red appeared on his neck with some faint blue veins standing


    out slightly. He looked sexy, as if full of lust...


    He leaned over, took Madelyn''s lips, and kissed her.


    Kissing was certainly not enough for adult men and women once they were aroused!


    Fortunately, the sky was dark...


    Madelyn was thin-skinned and refused to have sex in the car with Benjamin, let alone on the side of the


    road.


    Benjamin couldn''t help it. He attached himself to Madelyn''s ear and said in a gravelly voice, "Don''t


    move! I''ll please you. If I don''t do well, just tell me..."


    However, he was not good at it and had never pleased a woman in his memory.


    Even so, he wanted Madelyn to feelfortable.


    In the end, both of them were a mess...


    Madelyn blushed and her heart raced. She wanted to button the woolen skirt, but she couldn''t do it for


    a long time.


    Benjamin sorted himself out.


    Looking at Madelyn''s movement, he couldn''t help but be soft-hearted. Then he skillfully helped her


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    button her skirt.


    When they looked at each other, unconcealed sexual desires appeared in their eyes.


    They didn''t get sexual satisfaction, far from enough...


    Benjamin said in a slightly husky voice, "Let''s go home for dinner! Dad has called several times!"


    But they didn''t answer the calls, because they couldn''t stop what they were doing!


    Madelyn sat in the passenger seat, her face still hot. She didn''t dare to look at Benjamin and turned her


    face to the other side.


    Benjamin fastened his seat belt and chuckled when he stepped on the gas. "Why are you as shy as a


    young girl? Haven''t we done this outside before?"


    "No!"


    Madelyn''s face was so hot that she rolled down the car window a little bit...


    But Benjamin quickly rolled it up and said deeply, "Don''t open it! It''sfortable now. If you have a


    cold, you can''t breastfeed Francis!"


    Madelyn gently ran her fingers through her hair and said, "You only care about him!"


    "I care about you even more! I''m afraid you will have breast-distending pain!"


    ...


    They kept chatting like this.


    It was a little sweet.


    Snow was falling outside the car.


    But it was warm inside the car, and the two were sitting beside each other''s loved ones...


    When the car window became foggy, Madelyn gently wrote a name on it.


    Benjamin!


    Benjamin''s cell phone rang several times.


    He was driving, so he let Madelyn answer the phone. Madelyn recognized that it was Charlotte''s phone


    call because she had read the document.


    Madelyn said calmly, "It''s a stranger!"


    Benjamin smiled and said, "Put it on the cklist! The New Year ising and all kinds of product


    sellers start to work!"

 Chapter 286 Benjamin, You Said You Would Be a Good Husband!

    Chapter 286 Benjamin, You Said You Would Be a Good Husband!


    Chapter 286 Benjamin, You Said You Would Be a Good Husband!


    Madelyn directly put Charlotte''s mobile phone number on Benjamin''s cklist.


    After doing this, she was not in a good mood anymore and was a little absent-minded when Benjamin


    talked to her until the car stopped in front of the manor.


    Benjamin unbuttoned his seat belt, turned sideways, and asked with a bit of gentleness, "Why don''t you


    talk?"


    Men always loved topare...


    Benjamin thought for a while and asked, "Did I let you feel ufortable in the car just now?"


    Madelyn shook her head gently.


    She opened the car door and got out of the car, changing the topic. "They are waiting for us!"


    After Madelyn took only two steps, Benjamin grabbed her hand from behind.


    She fell into his arms.


    Snow was falling in the sky.


    Their coats were wet, but no one cared, because it was so rare to have such a long-lost hug on such a


    cold night...


    "Madelyn! Maybe, I can be a good husband!"


    Benjamin leaned in Madelyn''s ear and said softly.


    He abandoned his previous prejudice against her and wanted to ept her seriously.


    Whether it was because of his sexual desire or because of her good temperament, he thought she was


    a good lover and wife, as well as a good mother in short.


    Madelyn leaned on his shoulder and murmured greedily.


    "Really? Benjamin, what do you like about me?"


    ...


    Benjamin patted Madelynzily. "I''ll tell you tonight!"


    She still murmured, "Things are moving so fast between us!"


    Benjamin kept stroking her back. At this time, Madelyn was very gentle, and he was very willing to


    pamper her like this...


    At the entrance of the manor, Alexander and Keh were standing there.


    The two were smoking.


    Suddenly, Alexander widened his eyes and said, "Hey, is it Ben and his wife who are holding each


    other in the parking lot?"


    Keh lowered his head and lit the cigarette. Then he took a long drag on the cigarette, looking very


    manly.


    He took a look and replied, "Apparently!"


    Alexander was not calm anymore!


    He bit his cigarette, strode towards there in the snow, and shouted as he walked, "Ben, are you a fool?


    Don''t y the romance in such snowy weather! It doesn''t matter to you because your skin is rough. But


    it''s only been two months since your wife gave birth. How dare you let her be with you in the snow!"


    Keh almost burned his hand that held the cigarette!


    Meanwhile, Madelyn was embarrassed and pushed Benjamin away. "Dad is here!"


    Benjamin noticed he was not considerate enough, took off his coat to put it on her, and hugged her.


    "Okay, let''s go in! Sure enough, Dad loves you the most!"


    Alexander wasing.


    He gave a big ck umbre directly to Madelyn and then scolded his unreliable son loudly!


    Benjamin took out a cigarette from his pocket.


    He lit it in the snow and then nced at Madelyn with a faint smile.


    More or less, there was yfulness in his eyes!


    In fact, Benjamin like this was very attractive to Madelyn! But with the elders present, she didn''t dare to


    flirt with him but just walked quickly into the hall.


    Alexander gave Benjamin another postpartum ss.


    Finally, Alexander waved his hand and said, "Go and take care of your wife. It''s annoying to see you!"


    Benjamin slowly finished smoking half a cigarette in his hand and entered the house!


    Just aftering in, he saw Madelyn take off her coat and wipe her hair with a towel.


    She was wearing a thin woolen skirt, looking very pretty with her fair skin.


    Benjamin said in a gentle tone, "There is still half an hour before eating the meal. Go upstairs and take


    a shower! I''m going to see Francis!"


    Everest took his hand and said, "I will go with Dad!"


    Benjamin bent over, picked up the little guy, and kissed her.


    Everest put her arm around his neck, very happy.


    Madelyn looked at them with a gentle expression.


    Brianna took the towel in Madelyn''s hand and said softly, "After a long time, he will definitely know his


    thoughts. Besides, you two have such deep feelings for each other."


    Madelyn said yes softly.


    She thought, "In fact, whether he can restore his memories or not is not the most important thing. The


    important thing is the future!"


    Madelyn went upstairs to take a bath, and the first floor of the rks'' mansion was lively. The servants


    served hearty dishes back and forth, and the hall was warm...


    After Benjamin finished seeing Francis, he took Everest downstairs.


    At this time, it was already half past seven in the evening.


    On the outskirts of Gredax, someone started to set off fireworks...


    Everest was wearing a beautiful little skirt and ran around Benjamin. It touched the tenderest parts of


    his heart simply and he picked up Everest again.


    When he read financial magazines, he would also be distracted and look at Everest''s fair and tender


    face.


    When he saw Everest, he felt like seeing Madelyn.


    Everest was shy because of Benjamin''s gaze. She pinched her pinkie and said, "Dad, although you are


    very handsome, I think Edward is better-looking!"


    Benjamin pped her little ass!


    Everest was still a little shy, lying on his shoulder and pouting prettily...


    When Keh and Alexander came in, Keh saw this with deep eyes.


    He thought, "Emerson and I have never been so close before, and he is very shy."


    As it happened, Eloise went downstairs with Emerson.


    Recently, Eloise had a good life. Her parents helped her take care of Emerson. She didn''t need to run


    around for a living. She had already be as stunning as before but with a bit more feminine charm!


    Keh misses her, but he had no right to miss her currently.


    He bent over and said to the two children, "Come one, I will give you New Year''s presents!"


    Everest came over first.


    Keh gave her a gift!


    Emerson was a little shy. He always felt that Keh was stern. Eloise patted Emerson on the


    shoulder and said, "Go ahead!"


    Emerson plucked up the courage and walked up to Keh.


    "Great-uncle Keh!"


    For a while, the atmosphere in the hall was very strange!


    Keh was embarrassed, but he still touched Emerson kindly, gave him a gift, and said in a husky


    voice, "You have to call me Dad!"


    Emerson seemed to understand something and nodded. "Dad!"


    Everest ran over and said in a ringing voice, "Great-uncle Keh is Mom''s uncle, so I call him Great-


    uncle Keh. But Eloise and he are a couple and also Emerson''s parents, so Eloise has to call him


    Dad!"


    Keh touched Everest''s head.


    He thought, "She is so smart! Just like her father!"


    Everest ran away with Emerson to y...


    Eloise slowly went downstairs.


    Keh took out a box from his pocket and handed it to her. "Your New Year''s gift!"


    Eloise refused to ept it.


    Keh said with deep eyes, "Your brother still needs to call me uncle, and you can regard it as a New


    Year''s gift for an eldership! Take it. It''s rare for me toe here. I have to leave tomorrow morning, and


    I don''t know when I cane again!"


    Eloise took the box sadly and opened it.


    It was an emerald green ne in the box.


    Obviously, it was valuable!


    Eloise didn''t dare to ept it, but Keh didn''t care about it, saying it was nothing...


    He didn''t tell her that this was a heirloom of the Ryan family.


    Only the eldest daughter-inw of each generation of the Ryan family could have it.


    The two of them had an ambiguous future... But this time Keh came here, he impulsively wanted to


    give the ne to her.


    The atmosphere was intimate here.


    Over there, Benjamin had been watching quietly.


    He was not like his stupid sister. He knew the value of the emerald ne at first nce, but he


    didn''t specify it... At this moment, the mobile phone in his pocket rang.


    It was a strange number.


    Benjamin frowned slightly, thought for a while, and still answered the call. There was a cry from the


    other side as soon as the call was connected. "Mr. rk, I beg you to help Charlotte! She lost her


    funding and went back to her hometown to work. It is snowy today and there are mountains in her


    hometown. She identally slipped down the cliff, and the rescue is difficult now... Mr. rk, I know


    she did something wrong, and she offended Mrs. rk. But now the rescue is really difficult. Without a


    helicopter, she is likely to freeze to death there!


    "She called you a few times, but you didn''t answer! Mr. rk, I beg you!"


    ...


    The girl named Faith Myron kept crying.


    Benjamin held his mobile phone.


    He thought, "I didn''t answer the calls... Later, Madelyn put Charlotte''s number on the cklist. This is a


    human life..."


    Benjamin agreed without hesitation. He asked about the situation in detail before saying that he would


    deal with it.


    He hung up the phone and raised his eyes...


    Madelyn stood in the middle of the stairs, looking rxed after bathing, but her face was pale.


    "Are you going out?"


    Madelyn looked at Benjamin quietly, who had already taken his coat, and was about to go out.


    Benjamin gave a positive answer.


    He whispered, "It has something to do with us more or less. Madelyn, I''ll be back when I''m done!"


    "But the meal is ready! Keh will leave tomorrow morning!"


    Holding the handrail, Madelyn walked slowly down the stairs...


    She seemed calm, but only she knew how badly her hands trembled.


    Finally, she came to Benjamin and said, "It''s not difficult for Keh to arrange a helicopter for her."


    Benjamin looked at Keh.


    Keh smoked slowly and smiled lightly. "I can help!"


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn again.


    Madelyn said with a faint smile, "With the help of Keh, you can rest assured! Ben, you promised


    me not to interfere in Charlotte''s affairs anymore, so leave it to me... Okay?"


    Madelyn was not stupid.


    She thought, "There''s no such a coincidence in the world! Charlotte is just deceiving Benjamin by


    torturing herself! Well, she is so vicious and ruthless, and she can really get herself lean and mean.


    She actually trapped herself at the foot of the mountain. If the helicopter can''t be transferred, it''s really


    possible for her to freeze to death!"


    Madelyn didn''t care about Charlotte''s life or death but about domestic peace.


    After speaking, Madelyn stared into Benjamin''s eyes.


    Benjamin gently stroked her face and said in a gentle voice, "It''s rare for Keh toe here. Just


    have a meal with him. I''lle back tomorrow morning!"


    Then he turned around and was about to leave.


    Madelyn grabbed his hand and said in a very soft voice, "With so many rtives and such a good


    atmosphere, can''t you stay? Or do you not trust me? You think I deliberately put her number on the


    cklist, right?"


    Benjamin frowned slightly.


    "Madelyn, I didn''t think so!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and chuckled. She didn''t want to scare Everest or make the elders


    embarrassed during the New Year.


    She lowered her voice and choked out, "Just now you said that you will be a good husband and that


    we''ll have a good life... It''s only been a while, and you''re going to help a woman who''s clearly after you,


    right? Benjamin, are you the mission of justice, or do you care about her face?"


    Madelyn thought, "I spoke it out. I finally spoke out his inner thoughts!"


    Benjamin put on a serious face and said, "Madelyn, knock it off!"


    Madelyn gently let go of him, and the moment she loosened her grip, she was in a daze.


    With a strained smile, she walked over to carry Everest in her arms and sat down at the table.


    She whispered softly, "Dad has something to do. Let''s have dinner with grandparents first, okay?"


    Everest said okay but she was disappointed.


    Madelyn still coaxed her gently.


    From beginning to end, Madelyn didn''t look at Benjamin again.


    Maybe she was also disappointed!


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Alexander couldn''t listen anymore and snapped, "Ben, if you go out, I will break your leg!"


    Benjamin said, "Dad, it''s a human life!"


    Then he looked at Madelyn.


    He hoped she could talk to him more, even if she med him or just nced at him... But she didn''t.


    She seemed to have given up and concentrated on taking care of her child.


    Alexander was going to break Benjamin''s leg!


    But Madelyn said softly, "Dad, let him go!"


    Alexander felt very sorry for Madelyn. He thought, "Ben asked Madelyn to wait for him back then... But


    a jerk came back!"


    Benjamin left finally.


    When he walked out of the rks'' mansion, heavy snow fell on his body.


    His whole body was full of ice g.


    Sitting in the car, he arranged a helicopter for Charlotte and the rescue made progress!


    He did not leave directly but looked at his mobile phone in a daze. Later, he dialed Madelyn''s phone


    number...


    The phone went through, but no one answered the call.


    Benjamin knew Madelyn was angry.


    Benjamin thought for a while and sent a message. [I''ll be back tomorrow morning.]


    After sending it, he waited for a while smoking a cigarette, but Madelyn did not reply.


    Benjamin put out his cigarette. When he closed the car window, he nced at the manor. The lights


    were brightly lit and it looked very warm.


    He rolled up the car window expressionlessly.


    Then he lightly stepped on the gas.


    ...


    After leaving, Benjamin didn''te back in time even on New Year''s Eve!


    After Charlotte was rescued, she was admitted to the ICU.


    Early in the New Year''s morning.


    After being awake, Madelyn touched her pillow with her slender fingers gently while lying quietly on the


    big bed...


    The clock downstairs rang 8 times.


    Madelyn slowly got up to wash up, then fed Francis, and yed with Everest.


    At ten o''clock in the morning, Madelyn gave presents to all the servants in the family. All of them liked


    her very much and said many sweet things about wishing that she would always have a harmonious


    rtionship with Benjamin.


    Madelyn smiled slightly and called two servants. "Help me clean up a bedroom opposite the children''s


    room. The decorationpany will send the furniture over in the afternoon!"


    Madelyn had already asked someone to make the design drawings.


    She designed a suite and was going to move inter. In other words, she was going to sleep separately


    from Benjamin.


    The servants were surprised but did not dare to say superfluous words.


    They secretly told Eloise about the thing.


    In the afternoon of New Year''s Eve, Eloise secretly called Benjamin in the bedroom.


    Benjamin was still in Zhanta.


    He answered Eloise''s call in the aisle of the hospital and asked her in a low voice, "How is Madelyn?


    Still angry?"


    In the past few days, Madelyn had not answered his calls and refused to reply message to him.


    Madelyn knew that it was not easy to coax her this time.


    Eloise said in a wailing tone, "Dad got angry! Madelyn cleaned out a room. I think she is going to draw


    a line with you. Benjamin,e back soon!"


    Benjamin thought, "Madelyn wants to be separated from me..."


    He was stunned.


    After a moment, he whispered, "I got it! I''m gonna go!"


    He hung up the phone and immediately called Madelyn.


    Unexpectedly, Madelyn answered the phone...


    Suddenly, Benjamin didn''t even know what to say. He said in a gravelly voice after a long time, "Happy


    New Year!"


    Madelyn was silent for a long time before she said, "Same to you!"


    Benjamin hurriedly said, "I''ll be back this afternoon!"


    Then he exined the reason in a low voice.


    On the other side of the phone, Madelyn was directing people to ce furniture. When she heard the


    words, she lowered her eyes and sneered, "Whatever!"

 Chapter 287 How Much Longer Will Madelyn Keep Ignoring Me

    Chapter 287 How Much Longer Will Madelyn Keep Ignoring Me


    Chapter 287 How Much Longer Will Madelyn Keep Ignoring Me


    After saying that, Madelyn hung up the phone.


    She directed the workers, and in less than half a day, the suite was tidied up.


    Having everything arranged, Madelyn leaned back on the couch to rest.


    She didn''t meet anyone in the afternoon.


    In her private space, she held the diary that Ben had left her and flipped through it carefully.


    There were tears in her eyes.


    She missed him.


    She missed the affection between them.


    At four o''clock in the afternoon, a ck Maybach slowly came to a halt, and Benjamin got out of the


    car.


    Alexander and his wife had gone out with the children, leaving the vi rather quiet, which is in stark


    contrast to the festive atmosphere of Christmas. Benjamin stopped a servant and asked in a slightly


    hoarse voice, "Where''s Mrs. rk?"


    The servant, knowing that Mr. rk had had an argument with Mrs. rk, hesitated for a moment and


    replied, "She''s upstairs!"


    Benjamin nodded and went upstairs slowly.


    Benjamin had not changed his clothes for two or three days. Being someone who is fastidious about


    cleanliness, he should have taken a shower first. But he was eager to see Madelyn first.


    Benjamin found Madelyn easily.


    Under the dim yellow light, she was lying on her side on the couch, asleep, and looking incredibly


    tender.


    Approaching her, he noticed a glimmer in the corner of her eye.


    Had she been crying?


    Benjamin felt a bit guilty anyway. He leaned in with one hand supporting himself at her side, intending


    to kiss her...


    Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.


    But just at that moment, Madelyn woke up!


    Her long eyshes quivered slightly, and then her gaze met his. After a brief pause, she fully


    awakened and sat up gently, saying, "You''re back?"


    Benjamin detected the coldness in her tone.


    He looked around the bedroom.


    The room wasfortably furnished and appeared to be set up for long-term upancy. Benjamin


    lowered his head and murmured, "You''re mad at me but still can''t bring yourself to leave, can you? The


    fact that you haven''t moved out shows that you still care about our marriage."


    Madelyn slowly closed the diary.


    A thinyer of frost covered her face as she sneered, "Mr. rk, don''t tter yourself! I''m staying for


    Everest... Have you forgotten Everest''s condition?"


    Benjamin visibly paused.


    Everest had autism, so... was she maintaining their marriage only for their child?


    Madelyn said in a low voice, "That''s it! You should leave for now."


    Her attitude was icy as if he were aplete stranger.


    Just a few days ago, she had sat in his car and said to him with an ecstatic look on her face, "Ben, I


    want to kiss you!"


    Benjamin didn''t leave.


    Not only did he not leave, but he also held onto Madelyn''s wrist, not giving her a chance to escape. He


    wanted to kiss her, but when he leaned in, Madelyn turned her face away.


    "Don''t touch me!"


    ...


    Benjamin tried again, but Madelyn resisted fiercely.


    Suddenly, her gaze froze, and she plucked a strand of fine ck hair from his shoulder with her


    delicate fingers.


    It was obviously not Madelyn''s.


    Benjamin frowned.


    He hadn''t been involved with any other women, so there couldn''t be a trace left by any of them.


    Except... when he was at the hospital, he had suddenly been caught off guard by Charlotte''s hug.


    Was it from that moment?


    Madelynughed lightly. "That''s quite disgusting!"


    She knew that it was Charlotte''s little trick to sow discord between her and Benjamin. But Benjamin had


    willingly given her the opportunity for such tricks!


    She was tired and didn''t want to bother with it anymore.


    Benjamin noticed the weariness in her forehead and reassured her patiently, "I don''t know when that


    hair got there, but believe me, I haven''t done anything that would betray you or our children, okay?"


    He was clever, subtly bringing up their children.


    A cold smirk tugged at the corner of Madelyn''s mouth...


    Benjamin found her expression piercing and didn''t want to see her looking as if she was ready to give


    up on him. So he tried to kiss her again.


    And then a resounding p echoed.


    The p left Madelyn''s hand tingling, and she couldn''t take it anymore, saying, "Get out!"


    Benjamin was taken aback.


    When he regained his senses, his expression turned grim. He stared into her eyes and said word by


    word, "Madelyn, that is a human life!"


    Madelyn felt exhausted and closed her eyes.


    She said in a faint and ethereal voice, "Her life matters! What about my life and Everest''s? Benjamin,


    do you think I''m heartless? Well, let me tell you what I really think. I do wish she were dead! If she


    were, then she wouldn''t..."


    "Madelyn!"


    Benjamin cut her off in a stern voice.


    Madelyn, however, didn''t seem to care.


    She spoke the harshest words in the gentlest tone, "She''d better not have any more wicked intentions,


    or else... I don''t mind challenging thew, Mr. rk!"


    Benjamin more or less got her point.


    He stared at her, his chest heaving, and after a while, he murmured, "Madelyn, which one is the real


    you? Look at you now, where is the tender one who you were in the past?"


    Madelyn tossed a magazine in his direction, saying, "Then you can consider me a bad woman!"


    Benjamin gritted his pearly-white teeth.


    He finally left, mming the door behind him.


    ...


    He went to the master bedroom to take a shower.


    Feeling quite upset, he took off his coat and looked at it.


    Thinking about the hair on it, he didn''t hesitate to throw it into the trash can.


    When he absentmindedly opened the wardrobe in the cloakroom, he was noticeably shocked. The


    wardrobe, which used to hang both his and Madelyn''s clothes, was now half-empty, containing only his


    suits and shirts.


    She had moved all her things out!


    At that moment, Benjamin realized that Madelyn wasn''t joking.


    Physically, she was still part of the rk family, but in her heart, there was nothing left in their marriage


    except for their two children...


    As he washed his face and shaved, he stared at himself in the mirror and gently touched his own face.


    He couldn''t help but wonder, "How much does Madelyn still feel for this face of his?"


    ...


    They were in the same house, but they had very few opportunities to meet.


    Madelyn deliberately avoided him.


    When he was spending time with Everest, she would retreat to her own bedroom. Even when


    breastfeeding Fran, she would politely ask him to stay away, treating him as if he were an unrted


    man.


    At night, he took the initiative to prepare milk for Everest.


    He pushed open the door and found that Madelyn''s face appeared peaceful under the soft lighting.


    The little girl nestled in Madelyn''s arms, her tiny hands holding onto her mother tightly, while she


    listened to Madelyn reading a fairy tale.


    Madelyn''s voice was remarkably gentle and pleasing, tinged with a subtle huskiness. It inevitably


    evoked memories for Benjamin of those passionate nights when she had fervently implored him in a


    hoarse whisper beneath him...


    His Adam''s apple involuntarily bobbed as he gently ced the bottle into Everest''s arms.


    Everest held it and started drinking.


    After consuming more than half the bottle, drowsiness overtook her, and her little head began to sway.


    Madelyn''s voice became even gentler...


    As the night grewte, she patted Everest''s shoulder, softly humming a luby.


    Benjamin bent down and whispered, "She''s fallen asleep."


    Madelyn carefully ced Everest back in bed, kissed her forehead, and then got out of bed.


    She then went to the next room to see Fran.


    Now Fran was sleeping alone in the nursery, with two nannies taking turns watching him at night. After


    Madelyn finished seeing him and went out, Benjamin followed closely behind her in the empty hallway.


    He took hold of her hand and gently pressed her against the wall.


    "Madelyn, how much longer will you keep ignoring me?"


    "I have nothing to do with that woman!"


    ...


    Madelyn pushed him away from her shoulder and walked toward her own bedroom.


    Benjamin caught her delicate wrist once again.


    "We need to talk!"


    Madelyn halted in her tracks, her figure appearing even more slender under the dim light.


    In just a few days, she had noticeably slimmed down.


    She didn''t look like a woman who had given birth two months ago at all!


    Madelyn said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Is there anything we can talk about? Ever since Charlotte


    appeared, I''ve shown my aversion and disgust towards her. If you truly had any feelings for me or


    regarded me as your wife, you wouldn''t have made that decision."


    With those words, she walked straight to her bedroom.


    The faint sound of the closing door echoed the sense of loss that Benjamin felt...

 Chapter 288 Mrs. Clark Had a Really Wild Time

    Chapter 288 Mrs. rkHad a Really Wild Time


    Chapter 288 Mrs. rk Had a Really Wild Time


    The next morning.


    In the dining room, there were only Benjamin and Madelyn.


    The servant smiled and said, "Monsieur rk and Madame rk have taken the children out!"


    Benjamin knew that his parents wanted to give him and Madelyn some alone time, so he took that. He


    then said to Madelyn, "There''s a concert at 2 o''clock this afternoon. After you finish feeding Fran, would


    you like to go with me?"


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Madelyn was quietly having her meal.


    After a moment, she replied softly, "I want to stay at home."


    Benjamin looked at her face and said, "The snow has stopped outside. Don''t you want to go out and


    have a look?"


    "Not really," she replied.


    Benjamin felt hurt by her cold response.


    He was born loaded and had always been noble and proud, never having been snubbed by any


    woman.


    Except this one!


    He felt a fleeting sense of embarrassment and chose not to press the matter further, nning to go


    upstairs and take a look at his caseter.


    Just as he was about to get up, his phone rang.


    It was a call from Charlotte.


    Benjamin hesitated for a while, nced at Madelyn, and then hung up the call.


    His phone rang again.


    He hung up again and said to Madelyn in a low voice, "I won''t contact her anymore as long as I''m sure


    she''s not in a life-threatening situation!"


    Madelyn put down her knife and fork and looked at him calmly. "Why isn''t she on your backlist? You


    just couldn''t bear to cklist her, could you?"


    "Madelyn!"


    "Benjamin, this time shey down at the bottom of a mountain. Next time, she might jump off a building.


    If you don''t answer her calls, she''ll get her ssmates to be her messengers, and then you''ll say that''s


    a human life again!"


    Madelyn chuckled softly. "It will never end!"


    She couldn''t be bothered to say more and got up to go back to her bedroom to read for a while.


    At noon, she didn''t dine with him.


    In the afternoon, she practiced yoga in the basement, which made her entire body glisten with sweat.


    Benjamin stood at the door, holding Madelyn''s phone. "You have a call!"


    Madelyn was stretching her legs, and upon hearing that, she walked over and said thanks.


    She nced at the screen and saw that it was Vivian.


    Vivian had heard about what had happened to Madelyn and wanted to invite her out to rx.


    Madelyn was a bitzy and didn''t really want to go out.


    Vivian was leaning against her husband Grayson''s shoulder, lightly caressing his prominent nose, and


    eximed, "They''re all our old friends! You''re the one who''s been the most sessful among us now.


    You have tens of billions in assets and you have two children... Come on, we have a mysterious guest


    Madelyn couldn''t help butugh, "Who''s that big shot?"


    Vivian refused to reveal anything.


    Madelyn wiped her sweat with a towel and agreed, "Alright! Is it the same club as before?"


    "Yep," Vivian quipped and then added in a low voice, "Dress up nicely. It''ll definitely be worth it!"


    Madelyn couldn''t help but smile.


    Having a friend like Vivian by her side for so many years was quite nice.


    She hung up the phone, feeling in a good mood.


    However, Benjamin was livid. Although he couldn''t hear the voice over the phone clearly, he could


    more or less guess that it was probably rted to socializing.


    He leaned against the treadmill, saying unhappily, "I invited you to a concert with me, and you said you


    didn''t have time. But when Vivian asks you to go out for fun, you''re avable now! I''m going with you!"


    Madelyn continued running, responding casually, "Vivian didn''t invite you!"


    "You can take me with you!"


    Madelyn just smiled as her way of refusing.


    Benjamin stared at her for a few seconds, then turned and left.


    Mr. rk had his temper after all.


    ...


    At 7 o''clock in the evening, Madelyn headed out.


    Benjamin abruptly opened the bedroom door and fixed his gaze on her.


    She was wearing a golden sequined dress with slender straps.


    She wasn''t wearing stockings, and her fair legs were slender and straight with a faint pearl-like sheen.


    She draped a fur coat over her shoulders and put on a pair of high-heeled shoes in a near-matching


    color.


    Madelyn looked especially alluring tonight.


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apple bobbed slightly and he said in a husky and low voice, "I''ll drive you!"


    "No, thanks. Henry is already waiting!"


    "Are you sure you want to dress like that for your gathering? Madelyn, you have a husband!"


    ...


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled lightly.


    Husband? Did he really see her as a wife...


    In his heart, she was nothing more than a good bed partner, or the perfect daughter-inw for the rk


    family. There was no love between them.


    She turned and left without hesitation.


    As she got into the car, Henry couldn''t help but praise her, "Mrs. rk, you look absolutely stunning


    tonight!"


    Madelyn was absent-minded. "It''s just for socializing!"


    Half an hourter, they arrived at the Orchid Club.


    Madelyn pushed open the door of the small banquet hall. Just as Vivian had said, there were indeed


    many old friends here.


    It was a perfect ce for rxation and entertainment!


    Madelyn was in a good mood. She took off her coat and leaned back on the couch in the corner,


    chatting with Vivian.


    Although she was low-key, everyone around couldn''t help but keep their gaze fixed on her.


    They were eximing how wealthy she was!


    And they had heard about what Charlotte did, whispering about Madelyn and Benjamin''s marriage...


    Vivian had also heard about Charlotte and leaned in close to Madelyn, speaking softly, "Why don''t we


    just... deal with her?"


    In the luxurious dim light, Madelyn swirled her goblet.


    The golden champagne inside swayed gently along with the goblet...


    Madelyn brushed a strand of chestnut hair behind her ear and smiled, "Let''s wait for her toe out of


    the hospital!"


    At that moment, the atmosphere was just perfect...


    Vivian was dragged into the restroom by Grayson to make out, leaving Madelyn there savoring the


    moment all by herself.


    "Madelyn!"


    A tall figure appeared in front of her, and the voice was familiar.


    Madelyn looked up, and to her surprise, it was Daniel.


    She hadn''t seen him for a long time...


    Daniel lifted his chin slightly and asked, "May I sit?"


    Their past had long dissipated like smoke, and Madelyn was very cool now. She replied, "Sure, go


    ahead."


    Daniel didn''t cross the line.


    They had known each other for too many years. They had liked each other and hurt each other. But


    today, they could sit down and have a drink together calmly. He couldn''t help but have feelings for her


    again.


    "Madelyn, how have you been?"


    Madelyn chuckled, "I''ve been fine. What about you? Have you gotten married?"


    Daniel spread his hands in denial.


    Madelyn didn''t say anything.


    Daniel said in a hoarse voice, "I''ve been doing business up in the North recently, and when I came


    back these days, I heard that you... haven''t been doing too well. Madelyn, we''re not that young


    anymore, so I won''t beat around the bush. Over the years, I admit that I''ve been with many women, but


    in the end, there was only one person I truly cared about, and that was you!"


    He was filled with regret...


    Regret for losing the girl who had always been there to cook for him and stand by his side during the


    darkest of times...


    These years had passed in a blur for him.


    And Madelyn''s marriage was not going well.


    Daniel had pleaded with Vivian for this chance to meet Madelyn, so he got straight to the point and


    said, "Has Benjamin lost his memory? Has he forgotten that he loved you? Madelyn, if it''s too hard for


    you, why don''t you consider me? I''m willing to treat Everest and Fran as my own children."


    After saying that, he gazed at Madelyn quietly.


    Madelyn was still leaning against the back of the couch, gently swirling her goblet.


    After a while, she smiled and said, "Daniel, do you have fertility issues? Is that why you''re so interested


    in other people''s children? Maybe you should see a fertility specialist or a neurologist!"


    There was nothing for her to consider about them!


    Madelyn didn''t want to talk to him any longer as her good mood had been ruined. She grabbed her


    handbag and prepared to leave.


    But Daniel caught her hand.


    Her hand was soft and smooth, as tender as tofu.


    Madelyn shook him off, "I shouldn''t have said a word to you!"


    Daniel smiled bitterly.


    He really meant it, but he had lost Madelyn''s trust long ago. He looked at her alluring appearance and


    felt deeply bitter, but he just said one sentence, "Madelyn, you''ve changed a lot!"


    In his phone album, there was always that one picture, in which Madelyn was bending over the dining


    table with steaming dishes, waiting for himte at night.


    That was the most beautiful rtionship he had ever had!


    But Madelyn didn''t want to reminisce with him.


    She left quickly and called Vivian in the elevator. Vivian''s voice was trembling slightly over the phone.


    She was probably still with Grayson. "Are you leaving... Don''t... I''ll be right over!"


    Madelyn felt both irritated and amused.


    As she walked out of the club, she realized that she had left her fur coat inside.


    She thought of asking Henry to retrieve it when she touched her fair arm. Because she really didn''t


    want to see Daniel again...


    A long leg stepped out of the ck Rolls-Royce Phantom.


    It was Benjamin instead of Henry.


    He looked elegant and handsome under the neon lights.


    Madelyn, who was a bit tipsy, took a moment to clear her throat. And then she asked coldly, "Why is it


    you?"


    Benjamin took off his coat and draped it over her.


    Madelyn struggled for a moment, but she failed. She was firmly enveloped by his coat and the pleasant


    scent of faint pine on him lingered around her.


    He held her tightly with his lips pressing against her earlobe and said unhappily, "You had a really wild


    time, didn''t you, Mrs. rk?"


    "It''s none of your business! Let go of me!"


    "I won''t."


    ...


    At this tense moment, someone walked out of the club''s revolving door.


    It was Daniel.


    He held Madelyn''s fur coat in his hand. When he saw the embracing couple, he smiled faintly and said


    in a tender and indulgent voice. "Madelyn, you forgot your coat!"


    Madelyn''s body stiffened slightly.


    No matter how chaotic things were at home, she didn''t want to witness a scene like that.


    Benjamin, upon seeing that, grew even more unhappy.


    He held Mrs. rk, ring angrily at Daniel...


    Daniel wasn''t afraid at all and took a step forward.


    Benjamin slightly turned sideways, opened the car door, and ced Madelyn inside. Then, he gave a


    cold smile to Daniel and said sarcastically, "Thanks a lot, Mr. Campbell!"


    Benjamin took Madelyn''s coat from him.


    But Daniel didn''t let go. After fighting with Benjamin in an overt and covert way, Daniel finally released


    his grip.


    Benjamin mocked, "Mr. Campbell must be quite lonely! Why don''t you go on more blind dates?"


    Daniel smiled and lowered his head to light a cigarette. "Madelyn is married now, but she chose to


    chauffeur?"


    Benjamin sneered, "That''s better than coveting someone else''s wife like you!"


    Daniel smoked his cigarette leisurely and nced at Benjamin. "You''re right! I do covet your wife. From


    tomorrow on, I''ll actively pursue her. One day she might be moved by me! Who knows?"


    He was half joking and half serious.


    But deep down, he knew that Madelyn would never ept him again...


    Benjamin didn''t want to waste any more words.


    He walked around to the front of the car, got inside, and then tossed her coat onto the back seat. He


    was clearly quite bothered by it.


    He had lost many memories and he didn''t even know how far Madelyn and Daniel had gone...


    Had they kissed?


    Had they... done those things?


    Benjamin drove the car quickly...


    Madelyn began to realize that something was wrong. She covered her chest and asked softly, "Where


    are you taking me?"


    Benjamin didn''t respond.


    His handsome features looked particrly stern in the dark night.


    Now, he looked just like the Mr. rk she had first met...

 Chapter 289 She Just Wants to Hurt Him Now

    Chapter 289 She Just Wants to Hurt Him Now


    Chapter 289 She Just Wants to Hurt Him Now


    An hourter, the car came to a stop at the vi where they lived. The servants had been given time off,


    leaving the spacious vi empty.


    Benjamin unbuckled his seatbelt and walked around to help Madelyn out of the car.


    However, Madelyn resisted.


    So, he simply carried her horizontally, ignoring her struggling limbs.


    He switched on the lights as he made his way inside, quickly illuminating the entire vi.


    Benjamin then tossed Madelyn onto therge bed...


    Her supple body bounced gently on the soft bedding, and before she tried to escape, he firmly pinned


    her hands to the bed.


    She looked exceptionally beautiful tonight...


    She was so angry that her chest heaved, which made her look even more alluring at that moment.


    Benjamin had always harbored intense desires, and after being provoked by Daniel tonight, he couldn''t


    help but feel a bit impulsive. With one hand, he restrained her hands, preventing her from moving,


    while using the other to grasp her chin, forcing her into a kiss...


    Benjamin''s wet and hot kiss overwhelmed her along with his desire.


    But Madelyn didn''t want that, not even a bit...


    She moved her head from side to side, attempting to free herself from his kisses.


    "Benjamin, don''t touch me!"


    Benjamin raised himself, his breath ragged and his dark eyes deep and intense. "We are husband and


    wife. Why can''t I touch you?"


    Madelyn struggled for a while but soon ran out of strength.


    She sank into the soft bedding, muttering, "Because I find you disgusting!"


    Benjamin was slightly taken aback.


    He gazed at the woman beneath him, unable to believe she had uttered such words.


    Did she say she found him disgusting?


    Wasn''t she... supposed to love him?


    Madelyn''s lips trembled and her nose turned red, but she held back her tears.


    "Benjamin, if you ever loved me even a little, you would know how deeply Eleanor hurt me and how


    deeply she hurt Everest. Everest almost lost her life!"


    "You left your entire family behind during Christmas and went to the mountains for days! And you''re still


    taking care of her sister now!"


    "Benjamin, no, Mr. rk... How charming you are! That girl was even willing to give up her life for you!"


    ...


    Benjamin released her.


    He slowly moved backward, sitting beside her legs.


    He even considered lighting a cigarette.


    After staring at her for a long time, he finally asked, "She was willing to give up her life for me... What


    about you? Madelyn, what am I to you?"


    Madelyny on therge bed and there was only one thought in her mind at that moment.


    She just wanted to hurt him!


    She chuckled softly, her red lips parting slightly. "Haven''t you always wanted to know how youpare


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    to ''him'' in my heart?"


    "I''ll tell you. You don''tpare to Ben in the slightest!"


    "You don''t even deserve to have that apartment or anything that holds memories of him and me!"


    "Benjamin, the truth is, I hate that you have his body!"


    ...


    Benjamin''s body tensed uppletely.


    She had really irritated him!


    This woman was lying on his bed, saying such infuriating things to him!


    He leaned in, gently caressed her body from top to bottom, and finally rested his hand on her


    abdomen, where she had carried two little lives. He smirked, "You didn''t seem to mind when we did


    those things together. You didn''tin about anything when you were moaning beneath me. You


    were just so infatuated and lost in desire, Madelyn, Mrs. rk... Could you just stop pretending?"


    Madelyn''s chest heaved dramatically.


    She sat up, lightly patting his handsome face, and mocked, "Yes! It was quite something! But I don''t


    want to experience it now!"


    "Really?"


    He pressed his lips against hers, his expression unpleasant. "Your body doesn''t seem to agree with


    you!"


    He was so furious that she had said such things.


    Madelyn''s phone rang.


    It was Everest calling, Everest said in a sweet and soft voice. "Mommy, when are you and Daddy


    Madelyn flipped a strand of her hair and turned away.


    Her voice was gentle, tinged with a hint of heartbreak. "Mom will be back soon!"


    Everest continued, "I want Daddy to read me a fairy tale!"


    Madelyn responded with a soft hum.


    Then she added, "Mommy misses you!"


    Everest giggled sweetly, "I miss Mommy too!"


    ...


    Benjamin had been watching the whole time.


    He felt that Madelyn had two different faces, one for him and another for their children.


    He cared about what she had said anyway and didn''t want to do it with her now. Hey on the bed with


    his shoes on, smoking quietly...


    Madelyn whispered, "Let''s tidy up and go back."


    Benjamin understood what she meant. They would tidy up their moods here, and when they got home,


    they would pretend nothing had happened so as not to let their elders or their children discover the


    conflicts between them.


    He exhaled a smoke ring slowly and asked, "Madelyn, don''t you feel tired?"


    "I do."


    "But I have no choice! Benjamin, if I had the choice, I''d like freedom too."


    ...


    There were too many burdens on her...


    Apart from Benjamin, there were too many things she couldn''t bear to part with.


    Madelyn got up and went to the cloakroom to change into a woolen skirt. When she came out,


    Benjamin remarked sarcastically, "Huh? Are you afraid our parents will see you in that outfit?"


    Madelyn lifted her long hair and replied casually, "If you like it, I can dress like that every day!"


    Benjamin was about to be driven crazy by her...


    Madelyn, however, had already started walking towards the door. "We''ll go back in half an hour!"


    She descended the stairs slowly and turned off the lights. She sat down in front of the Morning Dew


    piano, closed her eyes, and began to y "Moonlight Sonata"...


    The moonlight was soft.


    It illuminated Madelyn''s gentle and delicate face, but her expression was so mncholic, and there


    was a hint of brightness in the corners of her eyes...


    Were those tears?


    Benjamin stood on the staircase, watching her silently.


    He had doubted whether she had lingering feelings for Daniel earlier, but at this moment, he was sure


    that the person she loved deeply was "Ben"...


    He felt jealous and ufortable.


    But he couldn''t take his eyes off her because the way Madelyn yed the piano was so dazzling.


    The stars filled the night sky, but they couldn''tpare to her.


    ...


    The cold war between Madelyn and Benjamin continued.


    After Christmas, they were both busy, and neither of them made an effort to break the ice.


    In February, the weather began to warm up.


    In the president''s office on the top floor of Everest Group.


    Gloria walked in with a bouquet of flowers while Madelyn was sitting silently at her desk. Gloria smiled


    and said, "Ms. Green, these are for you!"


    Madelyn didn''t even lift her head. "Find a trash bin and throw them in."


    Gloria coughed lightly. "We''ve already disposed of Mr. Campbell''s flowers. These are from Mr. rk."


    Madelyn looked up, "Bring them over and let me have a look."


    Gloria ced the bouquet on the office desk.


    Madelyn gazed at the bouquet of champagne roses silently and took out the card from inside, which


    had only a short message.


    Mrs. rk, Happy Valentine''s Day!


    Valentine''s Day...


    It was Valentine''s Day again already!


    Madelyn felt a bit mncholic, then she looked up at Gloria and said, "Go and tell everyone we''re


    leaving work two hours early today... Let''s all enjoy the holiday!"


    Gloria smiled, "Ms. Green, you''re so kind! Everyone will surely be delighted!"


    Madelyn nodded, gesturing for her to leave.


    Once everyone had left, Madelyn picked up the newspaper nearby. The front page featured Benjamin...


    He had won a majorwsuit in Esrand.


    At the celebration banquet, he raised a ss of champagne with a faint smile on his lips, looking


    confident and vibrant.


    Her phone rang. It was a WhatsApp message from him.


    [Madelyn, I really want to share my joy with you!]

 Chapter 290 Madelyn Is Not Easy to Be Messed With

    Chapter 290 Madelyn IsNot Easy to Be Messed With


    Chapter 290 Madelyn Was Not Easy to Be Messed With


    Madelyn kept reading that message for a long while but didn''t reply.


    She knew that Benjamin had some feelings for her, but it was too unreliable. Because Eleanor still held


    a ce in his heart which had crossed Madelyn''s boundaries.These are something that she couldn''t


    overlook.


    He had gotten her too easily.


    Marriage and children were all his bargaining chips.


    ...


    After tidying up a bit, she left her office, preparing to pick up Everest.


    The bouquet of flowers that Benjamin had sent was left behind.


    When she reached the first floor, there was amotion in the lobby.


    Several security guards were blocking two girls from entering, but they kept shouting at the door,


    insisting on meeting Madelyn.


    Gloria whispered, "Should I send them away? The scene is too unsightly!"


    Madelyn''s gaze fixed on Charlotte.


    Charlotte looked back at her, engaging in a covert fight across the crowd.


    After a moment, Madelyn said in a low voice, "Bring her to the reception room!"


    Five minutester, Charlotte and her ssmate Faith entered the reception room on the ground floor.


    They looked at the incredibly spacious and luxurious room, feeling somewhat overwhelmed. Faith even


    tugged at Charlotte''s sleeve and whispered, "Let''s just forget it! I don''t think Mrs. rk is someone we


    can mess with!"


    Charlotte pressed her lips...


    Madelyn sat on the couch and Gloria brought her a cup of coffee.


    She stared at Charlotte.


    Charlotte''s legs were still not agile and her hands were wrapped in bandages. How dared shee


    out like this to steal Madelyn''s man!


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and thought to herself, "Charlotte must be going crazy over money!"


    Charlotte also looked at Madelyn in front of her and she found Madelyn beautiful, elegant, and in great


    shape!


    "But what did that matter? I''m younger than her!" Charlotte thought inwardly.


    Charlotte chose not to sit down with dignity and instead ced a stack of money on the coffee table.


    "Mrs. rk, I''m here to return the money!"


    "Mr. rk paid me fifty thousand dors for my medical expenses and there is an excess of over ten


    thousand dors. I think I should return it to you!"


    ...


    Madelyn listened to her for a long time while sipping her coffee.


    And then she gently ced her cup down and smiled faintly, "Miss Lorne, you''ve made a mistake!"


    Charlotte looked puzzled.


    Madelyn took the stack of money and counted it, saying, "Shouldn''t you return fifty thousand dors to


    me? I remember you just said that my husband paid you fifty thousand dors!"


    Charlotte didn''t expect Madelyn to be so stingy.


    Her pride was shattered and her lips trembled. She said, "Mrs. rk, it was Mr. rk who paid for me


    and you have no right to ask me to return it!"


    Madelyn chuckled.


    "Oh, really? But that''s our marital property!"


    "I have the right to reim it!"


    "Furthermore, if you hadn''t shown up, how would I have known about the fifty thousand dors?... Now,


    I must ask you, did you have a rtionship with my husband?"


    ...


    Charlotte''s lips trembled, but she couldn''t bring herself to lie.


    Madelyn threw the money down lightly and sneered, "Miss Lorne, if you had sex with my husband, I


    wouldn''t even want this money back. I would consider it as payment for a one-night service by


    Benjamin! However, if nothing happened between you two, I''m afraid you must return the fifty thousand


    dors within a month!"


    Charlotte felt thoroughly humiliated.


    Her ssmate could see that Madelyn was genuinely angry and whispered to her, "I told you not to


    Charlotte stood with her back straight, deciding to bepletely candid.


    "Mrs. rk, I love Mr. rk!"


    "I believe Mr. rk has feelings for me too, otherwise, he wouldn''t have stayed with me in the hospital


    for several days! I understand you might be ufortable with that, but I want to tell you that even if


    you try to stop us, it won''t work!"


    "Mrs. rk, I''m not asking for a formal status. I just want to be by Mr. rk''s side."


    "You wouldn''t be so small-minded, would you?"


    ...


    Gloria listened with her heart pounding!


    She thought inwardly, "How could she dare to say that?"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes, her eyes filled with coldness.


    Charlotte had indeed crossed her boundaries and it had nothing to do with Benjamin anymore. It was


    purely about her disgust towards Charlotte.


    When she raised her eyes again, she smiled faintly, "Of course, I wouldn''t! From now on, I won''t hold


    any grudges against Miss Lorne, instead, I will treat you well!"


    Charlotte was taken aback.


    Madelyn raised her hand slightly.


    Gloria asked gently, "Ms. Green, what can I do for you?"


    Madelyn spoke lightly, "Pick up a few top-notch bodyguards to protect Miss Lorne day and night from


    today onwards, ensuring her safety until she can repay the fifty thousand dors to me!"


    "And also, this student, Faith, she seems quite capable..."


    Madelyn stood up, "Take the recording we just made and report it to their school''s leaders! Ask them if


    a student who intentionally interferes in someone else''s marriage is suitable to remain in the school?"


    Gloria nodded, "Yes, Ms. Green!"


    Charlotte was shocked!


    She never expected Madelyn to be so ruthless. Wasn''t Madelyn afraid of angering Mr. rk by treating


    her this way?


    Madelyn left.


    Charlotte followed her, dragging her injured leg, and said, "Mrs. rk, you have no right to treat us like


    this! You can''t possibly understand the feelings I have for Mr. rk. You are such a heartless person.


    Do you really love him? No, you just love the Everest Group he gave you!"


    Madelyn stopped..


    She said in an ice-cold voice, "Charlotte, I''ve already shown a lot of restraint!"


    And then she disappeared through the doorway.


    Charlotte stood there in a daze. She hade today to provoke her, to disgust her, and to sow discord


    between her and her husband.


    But she had underestimated the power of a fat-cat.


    Madelyn didn''t follow her script at all...


    Charlotte clenched her fists tightly. She didn''t believe that Madelyn could actually harm her in any way!


    At that moment, Gloria stepped forward.


    She pointed to two burly bodyguards standing nearby and said politely, "Miss Lorne, from today


    onwards, the two security guards will be with you at all times, whether you''re eating, sleeping, or going


    to the restroom. They will always be by your side to ensure your safety... Please cooperate and don''t


    abuse Ms. Green''s goodwill!"


    Charlotte was furious...


    She waved her hand, trying to knock over a vase nearby.


    "That vase is an antique worth thirty thousand dors," Gloria kindly reminded her.


    Charlotte''s eyes turned red and she said with her remaining pride, "I don''t need your protection! You


    just want to monitor me and deal with me!"


    Gloria smiled faintly.


    Gloria looked down upon the girl in front of her. Sure, Charlottes was good-looking indeed, but how


    dared shepare herself to Ms. Green? Yes, Everest Group was a gift from Mr. rk to Ms. Green,


    but it wouldn''t work if Ms. Green wasn''t capable of managing it.


    However, the business volume of Everest Group has increased since Ms. Green took over.


    All the shareholders were satisfied.


    Gloria took out a recording pen from her pocket and smiled, "If you have something to say, just tell it to


    your school''s leaders!"


    Charlotte''s face turned livid with anger.


    She walked out of Everest Group.


    People around were pointing and whispering about Charlotte and Faith. And two bodyguards stood


    behind them, following closely.


    Faith quickly burst into tears...


    She regretted offending Madelyn.


    Charlotte took out her phone and started dialing Benjamin''s number repeatedly, but his number was


    busy, so she couldn''t get through.


    Faith realized that Mr. rk had blocked Charlotte.


    ...


    Benjamin was in Esrand.


    He should have been in high spirits as usual when he was at a celebration banquet, holding a ss of


    wine and toasting with others.


    However, he wasn''t in a great mood today, because Madelyn hadn''t replied to his WhatsApp


    messages.


    As he epted congrattions from the people around him, he couldn''t help but think of Madelyn,


    picturing her ying the piano with her eyes closed that night.


    Although their values and beliefs didn''t align, she still had such a strong attraction to him. Was it just


    because she was his wife?


    Besides her beautiful appearance, he knew there was something else that deeply attracted him and


    made him want to possess her.


    Half an hourter, he ended the celebration early.


    He declined the host''s offer to drive him home and drove back to the hotel himself. Perhaps because it


    was Valentine''s Day today, the streets were lively with couples in love.


    Benjamin drove his white Bentley, feeling a sense of emptiness.


    He parked the car by the side of the road and lit a cigarette by the window. He thought he must be


    going crazy for actually wanting to have a date...


    Ahead of him, there was a woman holding a small girl in her arms.


    They were both dressed in tattered clothes, looking disheveled.


    The mother and daughter looked miserable, and in front of the mother was an empty bowl. She begged


    passersby for a little money to buy some bread for her child... Her child was obviously sick!


    Benjamin initially didn''t pay much attention to them.


    However, as he looked longer, he realized that he actually knew this mother and daughter.


    He had previously won an economic case, resulting in the defendant''s bankruptcy. Shockingly, the


    defendant had leaped from a building right inside the courtroom, leaving behind his devoted wife and


    daughter...


    Many years had passed and they had ended up like this!


    If it were in the past, he wouldn''t have cared. But as he looked at the little girl, he thought of Everest.


    His daughter Everest was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.


    The girl by the roadside had once been like Everest, the cherished daughter of a billionaire...


    If he had shown a little mercy back then...


    The little girl''s fate might have been different. She might not be lying by the roadside, suffering from


    illness...


    And maybe she wouldn''t have lost her father!


    When he came back to his senses, the cigarette between his slender fingers had burned to ashes and


    fallen.


    Benjamin opened the car door and got out.


    When Benjamin stood in front of the mother and daughter, they looked up and found the man elegant


    and dazzling under the nightfall...


    The woman recognized the car behind him.


    Her husband used to love this brand.


    Benjamin touched the child''s forehead with his palm. It was a bit hot and he said softly, "I''ll take you to


    the hospital!"


    Tears welled up in the little girl''s eyes.


    The woman was overwhelmed with gratitude and managed to kowtow to him...


    Benjamin felt a deep sense of mncholy.  She didn''t recognize him as thewyer who had caused her


    husband to lose the case all years ago.


    Without saying anything, he bent down and picked up the child.


    The woman followed him into the car anxiously. The interior of the car was too luxurious, emitting a


    faint scent of leather. She said nervously, "We could have just taken the bus!"


    Benjamin remained silent, gently caressing the child''s head.


    Her hair was so soft, like Everest''s.


    That night, the luxury car sped through the bustling streets and soon arrived at the children''s hospital.


    The child had pneumonia.


    Fortunately, it wasn''t too severe, and she only needed to stay in the hospital for a week.


    Benjamin arranged for them to have a private room and left for a while. When he returned, he was


    carrying a bag. The little girl called out to him happily, "Uncle!"


    He walked over and touched her little head gently, saying, "Uncle has to go now."


    The woman expressed her gratitude profusely.


    She apanied thispletely unfamiliar and distinguished man to the door and returned to the


    hospital room after a long while...


    Inside the bag that Benjamin had left were steaming hot meals, along with the child''s favorite cake.


    There were also seventy thousand dors in cash and the keys to an 80-square-meter house. He had


    already arranged for the transfer of the house in theing days!


    The woman looked at all this.


    She had seen the world, and she firmly believed that there was no such thing as a free lunch.


    She thought carefully and finally remembered who the man was...


    In the hospital room, the woman burst into tears, and the child held her mother''s hand restlessly. After a


    long, long time, the woman calmed down and gently hugged the child. "Don''t be afraid. Uncle is a good


    person!"


    Benjamin walked out of the hospital.


    At night, he sat in the car, quietly smoking, and for some reason, a few words echoed in his ears-


    shallow blood ties!


    He shuddered and closed his eyes. When he calmed down, he really wanted to see Madelyn...


    ...


    That night, Benjamin returned to Gredax.


    The rks'' mansion was lively, but Madelyn wasn''t at home. He inquired with the servants and learned


    that she had taken Everest out to celebrate.


    She actually spent Valentine''s Day with  Everest...


    Benjamin got into his car, gently stroked the steering wheel, and decided to go to that Edofordian


    restaurant after thinking for a while.


    It was veryte at night, but the Edofordian restaurant owned by Madelyn still had many customers.


    Madelyn sat there ying the piano.


    Under the crystal chandelier, her skin was porcin-white and incredibly smooth...


    Her figure was impable.


    She wore a long skirt with unmatched charm and elegance.


    Everest sat up straight, looking proudly at her mother.


    Benjamin took off his coat and sat across from Everest. The little girl shifted her gaze towards him,


    blinked lightly, and then leaped into his arms, happily calling out, "Daddy!"


    Her small and soft body was endearing.


    "Benjamin kissed her soft and tender cheek and said in a slightly hoarse and deep voice, "I''vee to


    pick you up with Mom!"


    Everest sat on Benjamin''sp and counted on her little fingers. "There are already four or five uncles


    wanting to date Mommy tonight!"


    Benjamin looked up.


    Madelyn was still ying the piano, her profile exuding incredible gentleness...


    There was affection in his eyes.


    He lowered his head and whispered to Everest, "Mommy and Daddy are already married. Mommy can''t


    date anyone else."


    Everest wrinkled her little face...


    It took her a while to squeeze out a sentence, "I''m not married to Edward, so can he date someone


    else?"


    Benjamin smiled softly. "In principle, yes!" Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Everest thought to herself, "Then I should get married to Edward soon!"


    Madelyn finished ying the piece and saw Benjamin, looking somewhat surprised.


    She walked over, smiled faintly, and said, "Mr. rk, congrattions!... Weren''t you supposed to be


    back tomorrow?"


    Benjamin stared at her face.


    After a while, he said, "I just missed you and our kids, so I came back early."


    Madelyn always saved face for him outside, so she smiled lightly. Even when he took out a gift from his


    pocket for her, she didn''t refuse.


    Upon opening it, she found a pair of pearl earrings.


    Her eyes glistened with tears. After all this time, he had forgotten about the past, but his taste had truly


    remained unchanged...


    Benjamin gazed at her expression and said softly, "I noticed you wear that pair of earrings often.


    Hayden said you lost one and searched for a long time, so I bought you another pair."


    "Thank you!"


    Benjamin held her hand and asked gently, "So, did I win your favor?"


    Madelyn smiled faintly at him.


    She put on that pair of pearl earrings...


    Benjamin couldn''t help but feel disappointed.


    It was clear that Madelyn was just offhand with him. She was clearly unwilling to give him a chance and


    she only did so to y the role of a good Mrs. rk in front of others...


    In the car on the way back home, with Everest present, he couldn''t bring himself to say anything


    intimate between a husband and wife...


    He just looked at her through the rearview mirror when they stopped at a red light.


    He had been moved to some extent in Esrand tonight. On such a night, he wanted to share his feelings


    and everything about himself with his wife...


    The car came to a stop. Everest jumped out first.


    Benjamin gently stroked the steering wheel and whispered, "Madelyn, today is Valentine''s Day. Let''s


    celebrate together..."

 Chapter 291 Letting Charlotte Stay in Gredax

    Chapter 291 Letting Charlotte Stay in Gredax


    Chapter 291 Letting Charlotte Stay in Gredax


    Madelyn coldly said, "No need!"


    When she intended to leave the car, Benjamin blocked her way, deeply stared at her, and said, "It was


    my faultst time. I shouldn''t have treated you like that. Madelyn, don''t give me the silence treatment or


    say those harsh words, OK?"


    Madelyn smiled, looked at him, and softly said, "Charlotte went to meet me and said she wanted to


    stay by your side as your mistress! It was disgusting! If you hadn''t personally gone there to save her or


    looked after her in the hospital for three days, she would not have had the confidence to challenge me!"


    It was all his fault!


    Benjamin was startled to hear this. He had not expected Charlotte to be so clueless. He blocked her


    number after paying for her medical expenses and confirming her life was not in danger. He had not


    contacted her since then.


    He lowered his voice and said, "I''ll take care of it, OK?"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled, "No need! I''ll handle it!"


    Benjamin thought she would scold Charlotte and drive her away, so he decided not to interfere.


    Something had touched him tonight, so he wanted to sleep with Madelyn and said in a muffled voice,


    "Can you sleep in my bedroom? I won''t do anything that will offend you!"


    Madelyn was not interested. She also had sexual desire but could not convince herself to forgive him.


    So, she rejected him.


    Under the pale moonlight, Benjamin leaned over to kiss her. But she shrank back, intending to get out


    of the car from the other side. But he quickly followed her into the car, grabbed her arm, and pressed


    her into the back seat, trying to kiss her.


    Suddenly, there was a cough outside the car. Then, Alexander asked, "What are you doing, Benjamin?"


    Benjamin stiffened. Looking down at Madelyn in his arms, he found it hard to suppress his desire.


    Madelyn''s slender throat tightened when she hoarsely said, "Dad, let me take a walk with you!"


    Alexander waited outside, so Benjamin let go of her. Then, she fixed her clothes and got out of the car.


    Alexander knew the young couple were quarreling at a nce, so he smiled, "Maddie, let''s go for a


    walk!"


    Madelyn put on her coat and followed behind him. They had a good rtionship and were as close as


    father and daughter. After walking for a while, he said gently and lovingly, "We know you have suffered


    a lot. Benjamin''s temper used to be bad. It was hard for us to discipline him in the past!"


    Madelyn said in a nasal voice, "Yes, it''s hard!"


    Alexander patted her shoulder and continued walking with her. He knew she was unhappy. She had a


    son and a daughter, so she did not need to stay here. She endured the aggrieves because she and


    Benjamin used to be an affectionate couple.


    ...


    Madelyn was leading a boring life. When she was ying the piano in the living room in the evening


    one weekter, the housekeeper came over and told her Faith came to meet her.


    Madelyn tly said, "Please let her in."


    Faith was Charlotte''s friend. And it was the second time she hade to the rks'' mansion. She


    didn''t dare to sit down. So, she stood beside Madelyn and cautiously said, "Mrs. rk, please spare


    Charlotte''s life!"


    Madelyn continued to y the piano.


    Faith said in a sobbing voice, "Charlotte was expelled from school. Your bodyguards are following her


    all the time. She feels so suffocated that she almost goes crazy! Mrs. rk, Charlotte is a pitiful


    person. I beg you to let her go!"


    Madelyn stopped ying the piano, looked at her, and smiled, "Tell her I will not pursue the matter if


    she returns to her hometown!"


    Faith''s face turned pale when she softly said, "She has made painstaking efforts to pass the exam and


    Madelyn sneered, "She can''t me me. After all, she has done such a shameless thing."


    When Faith pleaded for mercy, Madelyn heard footsteps at the entrance.


    It was Benjamin!


    He looked unhappy, but Madelyn didn''t know how much he had heard.


    Faith also begged him, but he asked her to leave without agreeing.


    After she left, he leaned against the piano with a half-smile and said, "Mrs. rk, this is a society ruled


    byw!"


    Madelyn knew he was interceding for Charlotte, so she lowered her eyes and felt heartbroken.


    "Are you feeling distressed? Mr. rk, can you think of a better way to stop her from getting close to


    me and trying to call my husband?"


    ...


    Benjamin stared at her briefly before lightly saying, "You know I have no feelings for her. Why did you


    do such things!"


    He thought she was ruthless. He knew about Charlotte''s past. Her growth environment was


    unspeakable. Even if she had a design on him, she could not threaten their marriage as long as he had


    no feelings for her.


    Madelyn was too narrow-minded!


    Madelyn continued to y the piano. After a song, she whispered, "Benjamin, I just want to protect the


    people I want to protect."


    Benjamin stared intensely at her for a long time. Then, he slowly loosened his tie and walked upstairs.


    They had dinner and put Everest and Francis to bed together but didn''tmunicate with each other.


    Although they lived in the same house, they were like strangers. But she no longer cared.


    Late at night, they walked to their bedrooms respectively. In the dim corridor, he grabbed her hand and


    said, "Let''s talk!"


    Suddenly, her phone rang. After she picked it up, the bodyguard hesitantly said, "Ms. Green, the


    woman jumped off from the third floor and broke her leg!"


    Hearing this, Madelyn calmly said, "Send her to the hospital and continue watching her!"


    Benjamin knocked the phone off her hand. He felt anxious and harshly said, "She has been expelled


    from school! What else do you want? Madelyn, how can you be so cold-blooded? Are you doing this


    because you don''t trust me? Or do you have no confidence in your charm? Did you use such methods


    to let me marry you back then?"


    ...


    Hearing his questions, Madelyn was a little dizzy. Then, she smiled, "Yes! I am cold-blooded! I want to


    drive her out of Gredax! I don''t care whether she will die!"


    ...


    Benjamin intensely red at her. Then, he walked to the end of the corridor, called his assistant, and


    gave several orders.


    His assistant was surprised to hear his words but still did what he asked him to do.


    Madelyn stood under themp in the corridor. She had heard his words. He wanted to help Charlotte


    return to the school and pay for her medical expenses. And he would let her stay in Gredax.


    Suddenly, Madelyn felt extremely tired. She and Benjamin were not on the same page. He could not


    understand her injuries or the fears in her heart.


    The crystalmp in the corridor was bright.


    Her face turned pale when she sent a message, saying, "Stop watching her. You cane back."


    After Benjamin finished the call and looked back, Madelyn had left. There was only coldness left in the


    long and luxurious corridor.


    He realized his tone had been too harsh. He didn''t want to get into a stalemate with her and was willing


    to coax her gently. He believed Charlotte''s matter would be over if they met each other halfway.


    So, he knocked on her bedroom door and said, "Madelyn, open the door!"


    But there was no response after a long time. She didn''t want tomunicate with him.


    He patiently waited momentarily, lowered his voice, and said, "Please open the door. Let''s talk. You


    don''t want to wake my parents sote at night, right? Madelyn, please be reasonable."


    ...


    She still did note out! He stood there for a long time before he returned to his bedroom.


    Their rtionship had reached a freezing point!


    They had barely met recently. Madelyn refused to give him a chance, and he couldn''t swallow his pride.


    But in the dead of night, his Physical and mental cravings told him he was attracted to her and wanted


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    to have sex with her.

 Chapter 292 Dont Touch Me

    Chapter 292 Don''t Touch Me


    Chapter 292 Don''t Touch Me


    Benjamin attended a business dinner after getting off work. He was in a bad mood, so he had drunk a


    lot and felt dizzy when getting in the car.


    The driver didn''t know about his private life. While opening the car door for him, he casually said, "Mr.


    rk, you are drunk! Mrs. rk will be unhappy when you return home. Women don''t like drunk men!"


    Benjamin leaned back in the backseat, took a cigarette from the case, and lit it. After blowing out a puff


    of smoke, he chuckled, "She won''t care."


    Madelyn was cold to him and did not allow him to touch her. And they had not had sex for several


    months. He was like a single man now.


    Most couples had conflicts but could be reconciled soon. However, she had moved to another


    room. It was difficult for him to talk to her, let alone sleep with her!


    The driver sensed something wrong and didn''t dare to say anything more. So, he walked to the driver''s


    seat. When he was about to start the car, a soft voice said, "Mr. rk!"


    Benjamin looked over and saw Charlotte outside! She had a cane and could not walk steadily.


    Charlotte followed his gaze, looked at her leg, and said, "The doctor said my leg will recover in two


    months. There will be no seque!"


    After finishing speaking, she showed a pitiful look. She had thought Benjamin would visit her after


    arguing with his wife. But he had not gone to see her after she had waited for a long time. However, it


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    did not matter. If he did not visit her, she could take the initiative to meet him!


    Benjamin nodded at her and told the driver to drive.


    The driver responded, turned the car around, and drove toward the main road. Watching the expensive


    ck RV pass by, Charlotte sneered. Then, she threw away the cane and weakly fell to the ground,


    looking pitiful.


    Seeing this, Benjamin frowned, considered it, and said, "Stop the car!"


    The driver was confused.


    Benjamin lightly said, "Help her into the car and drive her home!"


    The driver hesitatingly said, "Mrs. rk will be unhappy if she finds out!"


    Benjamin was a little drunk, so he stroked his forehead and said, "She will not know if you don''t tell her.


    We will send Charlotte home. It''s no big deal."


    The driver fell silent, got off, and helped Charlotte into the car.


    When Charlotte sat beside Benjamin, he closed his eyes to meditate without talking to her. But she


    could smell the pleasant pine scent on him. She quietly turned sideways to look at him. His profile was


    perfect. His facial features were angr, good-looking, and noble. And the car was highly luxurious.


    She greedily enjoyed all this, leaned over with a blush on her face, sniffed his excellent smell, and


    imagined herself making out with him. She wondered whether he would hold her down and whether his


    expression would be distorted and affectionate.


    When she thought of this, her heart skipped a beat. Looking at his snow-white shirt, she came up with


    an idea, gently leaned over, and kissed it, leaving a light orange lip mark. It looked evident on the white


    cloth so his wife would not miss it.


    When Benjamin frowned and opened his eyes, she quickly sat up straight.


    Half an hourter, the car stopped in front of an apartment with a friendly environment.


    When the driver helped Charlotte out of the car, Benjamin sat still with no intention of getting off.


    Charlotte bent over and softly said, "Mr. rk, thank you for sending me back. If you need me to


    exin to Mrs. rk, I make it clear to her that there is nothing between us!"


    Looking at her face, he smiled without saying anything.


    When the car started, Benjamin did not close his eyes to rest. He had noticed Charlotte lean over just


    now. She was young and looked like Eleanor. She was Eleanor''s sister but courted him. He knew he


    could sleep with her if he gently hugged her. Then, he would have a young and obedient lover and let


    her be Eleanor''s substitute.


    Those few seconds of ambiguity were a test for himself. He wanted to see how much he cared about


    Madelyn!


    When Charlotte leaned against him, he had thought of Madelyn and how vulnerable she looked when


    she yed the piano with her eyes closed. She could make his heart violently throb, but Charlotte


    could not.


    After weighing his options, he chose Madelyn and his family.


    ...


    Benjamin exited the car and looked up at the rks'' mansion. It waste at night, so most of the lights


    were off. But the light in Madelyn''s bedroom was still on.


    He walked through the entrance hall and slowly approached the second floor. After seeing Everest and


    Francis, he went to Madelyn''s bedroom. She had not locked the door, so he quickly entered.


    She was leaning on the sofa in soft silk pajamas and had fallen asleep with a novel in her hand. Her


    exposed skin looked fair and smooth under themp.


    Benjamin liked her body. He had not made out with her for a long time. He was drunk tonight, so he


    intended to proposition her. After leaning over, he hugged and kissed her.


    Madelyn didn''t wake up. She was more obedient in her sleep.


    After kissing her for a while, he was turned on and couldn''t help teasing her with his hands.


    When she woke up and opened her eyes in a daze, she saw his handsome face and the orange lip


    mark on the cor of his white shirt! A woman left it!


    When she quietly stared at it, he still felt sexy and tried to take off her pajamas.


    Her face turned pale when she shouted, "Let go of me!"


    Benjamin was confused. He thought she did not want to have sex with him because she was angry


    with him for what had happened a few days ago. So, he gently bit the soft flesh behind her ear and


    asked, "Are you still angry?"


    Madelyn was lying on the sofa. Her body was plump and attractive, but her words were cold.


    "You met Charlotte, right?"


    Benjamin froze. After a while, he raised his eyes to look at her and said, "I bumped into her and gave


    her a ride!"


    After fixing her pajamas, Madelyn deftly unbuttoned two buttons of his shirt with her slender fingers and


    revealed the lip mark.


    The orange lipstick was sexy.


    Benjamin frowned, "We sat in a car with a driver. What could we do?"


    He didn''t like the smell of another woman, so he slowly unbuttoned his shirt, took it off, and threw it into


    the trash can.


    Then, he turned around to look at Madelyn and said, "I didn''t cheat on you!"


    Madelyn didn''t bother to get angry. She quietly sat and calmly said with moist eyes, "Yes, you didn''t


    cheat on me! You just helped her back to school, rented an apartment for her, paid her tuition, and


    gave her a good job! Is there any difference from raising a mistress?"


    Benjamin frowned, "I don''t want to have a mistress!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to see his face. She stood up, walked to the French window, looked at the night


    outside, and murmured, "Benjamin, you allowed her to get close to you and provoke your legal wife!


    You and she have crossed the line! If the driver had not been there tonight, you would have tested


    yourself further and gone to her rental apartment. She would have taken off your coat and kissed you.


    If you had felt good about it, you would let her be your mistress and Eleanor''s substitute!"


    Benjamin was smoking a cigarette. And the cigarette butt burned his finger.


    After a while, he said, "Madelyn, you should not have spoken so harshly!"


    Madelyn didn''t argue with him. Instead, she whispered, "The truth is always harsh to hear! Benjamin,


    you came home tonight because I am giving you the silent treatment. Otherwise, you would not have


    refused her when she threw herself on you!"


    While speaking, she felt heartbroken. After all, the truth was harsh to hear.


    Benjamin had drunk too much and had a headache. Staring at her back, he knew she would not talk


    with him tonight. So, he stroked his forehead and said, "We''ll talk tomorrow! Go to bed early!"


    Madelyn stood still. When he held the doorknob, she whispered, "Take your shirt out!"


    When he turned around, he only saw her alienating back and couldn''t help suspecting she had never


    loved him.


    Was it natural that they used to be in love?


    ...


    After Benjamin left, Madelyn slowly walked to the sofa and sat down. She expressionlessly stroked the


    novel she had read. She had expected this to happen since he had taken over Charlotte''s matter.


    She had never forgotten how affectionate he had been when he had met Eleanor years ago. He had


    lost his memory when waking up. His crush was dead, so he could not resist a perfect recement.


    She knew what he was thinking. If she were unmarried, she would fight for him. But she had Francis


    and Everest. She did not allow herself to live in worries about gains and losses because it would set a


    bad example for her children.


    Maybe it was time to decide now.


    Madelyn opened the drawer of the bedside table and took out two agreements.


    One was a separation agreement, and the other was a divorce agreement.


    ...


    Madelyn took care of her two children as usual early in the morning.


    She and Benjamin had been at odds recently but tried their best to hide it from the children. However,


    Everest was sensitive and could feel her parents were not as close as before.


    While having breakfast, she could not help asking, "Mom, are we moving out?"


    Last night, she had heard Madelyn talk on the phone about looking for a house with five bedrooms.


    Madelyn was stunned to hear this. She pinched her little face and smiled, "Everest, are you willing to


    live with me? Our new house is close to your kindergarten. I can hold your little hand and walk you to


    kindergarten daily!"


    And she could go to pick up Everest with Francis.


    Benjamin heard she would move out with the kids when he came downstairs.


    He walked over and sat down next to her. He didn''t want to argue with her before the children, so he


    whispered, "Let the driver send Everest to kindergarten. We need to talk!"


    Madelyn wiped Everest''s mouth and casually nodded after a long while. She was always cold. Despite


    seeing the solid evidencest night, she had not lost her temper.


    After Everest entered kindergarten, Benjamin picked up the car keys and said, "I''ll drive you to the


    Madelyn agreed.


    Sitting in the passenger seat, she could smell the strange feminine fragrance in the car, although one


    night had passed. She thought Charlotte left it.


    She took out two agreements from her briefcase. One was a separation agreement, and the other was


    a divorce agreement.


    Then, she whispered, "If we sign the separation agreement, we will divorce two yearster. If we sign


    the divorce agreement, we can immediately get divorced. The difference is the visitation rights in the


    next two years."


    Benjamin casually flipped through the two agreements.


    There was little difference between the two documents because there was no property division. The


    Everest Group was Madelyn''s. And she did not want anything but the two children!


    Benjamin closed the documents, threw them on the center console, took a cigarette, and lit it.


    Smoke soon filled the car.


    Madelyn felt a little suffocated, so she silently opened the car window.


    Suddenly, Benjamin asked, "Do you think my father will allow you to take away the two children of the


    rk family?"


    Madelyn''s eyes turned slightly red when she said, "He has agreed!"


    Benjamin''s fingers holding the cigarette slightly trembled before he asked in a muffled voice, "Is it


    because of what happenedst night? Madelyn, I didn''t sleep with her! I didn''t even kiss her!"


    It was she who had cold-shouldered him for too long!


    He did not agree to divorce or to separate. He knew there was a big problem between them. He


    wanted to solve it, so he grabbed her hand and gently said, "Let''s go out to y! Only the two of us."


    Madelyn pulled her hand back, leaned back in the seat, and tiredly said, "Benjamin, I want a divorce!"


    Then, she opened the car door, got off, and entered another car.


    Benjamin chased after her and patted the car door, saying, "Madelyn, get out! We need to talk!"


    He did not want a divorce. It was not because of his reputation. He did want Everest and Francis to


    be single-parent kids!


    Henry was in a dilemma, so he asked, "Mrs. rk?"


    Madelyn tly said, "Start the car!"


    Then, the ck RV slowly passed by Benjamin. Madelyn had thought she would not feel sad anymore,


    but her eyes still turned red. She was disappointed in him but had deeply loved him before.


    However, a different beginning would naturally lead to a different ending.

 Chapter 293 Divorce

    Chapter 293 Divorce


    Chapter 293 Divorce


    Benjamin did not want a divorce.


    He kept bugging Madelyn and showed up at the gate of the Everest Group every day when she got off


    work.


    Others thought they were a loving couple, but Madelyn felt tired.


    She could tolerate his bad temper and violence when having sex. But Charlotte''s matter had crossed


    the line. He knew Charlotte''s ambition but still allowed her to get close to him. He did not respect his


    wife and thought he was faithful as long as he did not have sex with other women.


    At half past five on Friday, Madelyn handed a signed document to Gloria and said, "You can get off


    work after dealing with it!"


    Gloria smiled, "Ms. Green, Mr. rk called and said he wanted to pick up Everest with you!"


    Seeing Madelyn fall silent, Gloria didn''t dare to say anything more and left with the document.


    Madelyn sat in a daze for a while before packing her things and leaving.


    Benjamin had been bugging her for a long time. After getting in the elevator, she thought he intended to


    use the kids to let her give up divorcing him. But it was precisely because of them that she had


    decisively made up her mind.


    Benjamin was sitting leisurely on the sofa in the lobby of the Everest Group. He was wearing a light


    gray shirt and a ssic ck suit jacket, looking elegant. His handsome face was radiant. No one


    could see his wife was trying to divorce him.


    Seeing Madelyne downstairs, he stood up, took the briefcase from her hand, and gently said,


    "There are activities in the kindergarten today so the ss will end a littleter. It''s right for us to go to


    pick up Everest now!"


    He was smart. He knew she would not embarrass him publicly and wanted to make Everest happy.


    After she got into his car, he found she didn''t want tomunicate with him.


    She asked when he would sign the agreement daily, but he would not sigh!


    His Adam''s apple slightly rolled before he hoarsely said, "Fasten your seat belt!"


    Hearing this, Madelyn came to her senses.


    When she was fastening her seat belt, he started the car and gently ventured, "What about we take


    Everest to eat steakter? She kept moring for it and said she wanted to eat out with both of us!"


    Madelyn understood his implication, so she remained silent and said, "You can see her and Francis


    after we divorce!"


    ...


    Benjamin''s fingers turned white as he tightened his grip on the steering wheel.


    Then, he lightly asked, "What about you? I can''t see you after we divorce, right?"


    Madelyn felt bad. She had promised not to give up. But now, she went back on her word. She turned to


    look outside the window and murmured, "We can meet. But our rtionship will change!"


    Benjamin fell silent. After a long time, he said in a muffled voice, "Madelyn, can''t you forgive me this


    time?"


    Madelyn''s lips trembled slightly. She had a lot of things to tell him. But now, she did not want to say a


    word.


    Seeing this, he didn''t say anything anymore. And there was only silence between them.


    Many parents were waiting for their children when the car arrived at the kindergarten entrance.


    Madelyn couldn''t embarrass him in front of outsiders, so they walked side by side to pick up Everest.


    But when Madelyn saw Everest, the former''s blood froze. Everest was motionlessly standing there. Her


    big ck eyes became dull, and her tender fingers clutched her skirt. She had fallen into the autism.


    And Charlotte was squatting in front of her with a smile and gently coaxing her, saying, "This is the


    candy I bought for you. Do you like it? Why don''t you talk? Don''t you like me? But your dad likes me


    very much."


    ...


    Irene was panicked. She did not know who the young woman was. But she had scared Everest. When


    Irene was about to call Madelyn, thetter came over.


    Madelyn was so angry that her entire body was trembling. How did Charlotte dare toe here? She


    had failed to pursue Benjamin, so she came to nag a child. She was the same as Eleanor!


    Charlotte found something wrong and felt a little scared. When she raised her eyes, she saw Madelyn


    and Benjamin. She instinctively defended herself and innocently said, "Mr. and Mrs. rk, I didn''t


    mean it. I don''t know why she became like this! Should we send her to the hospital?"


    Madelyn gently hugged Everest, raised her hand, and pped Charlotte hard.


    The corner of Charlotte''s mouth bled, half her face swelled. Tears welled up in her eyes when she


    sobbed, "Mrs. rk, I didn''t mean it!"


    Madelyn fought back her anger and said, "If anything happens to Everest, I will kill you!"


    Then, she picked up Everest.


    Benjamin wanted to take the kid over, so he said, "Madelyn, let me hold her!"


    Madelyn pushed him away without hesitation. She didn''t even want to see him!


    He had indulged Charlotte and given her illusions again and again. He had helped, sent her back


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    home, and flirted with her. If he had not done those things, Charlotte would not have dared to pester


    Everest! What she relied on was nothing but Benjamin''s connivance!


    Madelyn was fed up with it!


    When Benjamin was about to chase after her, someone grabbed his arm. When he looked back,


    Charlotte muttered, "Mr. rk, I didn''t do it intentionally!"


    Benjamin was in no mood to talk with her, so he pushed her away.


    Madelyn was waiting in the car.


    Benjamin opened the car door, got in, and turned to look at Everest. She was motionless in her


    mother''s arms. She did not speak and was unresponsive. It was the first time he had seen her being


    autistic since he had lost his memory.


    He gritted his teeth and started the car!


    After the ck RV slowly left, Charlotte touched her face in a daze. Mr. rk had roughly pushed her


    away with disgust in his eyes.


    Why did he hate her? Didn''t he like her face very much?


    ...


    After returning home, Madelyn gave Everest soothing medicine and tried to put her to sleep. But


    Everest refused.


    She stood under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the courtyard and kept plucking its leaves with


    her coffee-colored curly hair hanging down.


    Madelyn was distressed.


    She put a thick coat on Everest and squatted beside her to keep herpany. Soon, the small tree


    became bare.


    When Madelyn gently hugged her little body, Benjamin draped a down jacket around her shoulders


    from behind and hoarsely said, "Put it on. It''s cold outside!"


    Madelyn hated him, so she threw away the jacket and pushed him away.


    Benjamin was caught off guard and knocked his head into a stone pir, causing his forehead to bleed.


    Under the moonlight, the blood looked scary. But he did not care and wiped it off with his hand.


    Madelyn suppressed her emotions and snapped, "Eleanor had harmed Everest twice! Charlotte


    approached Everest to please you and scared her into autism! The illness has not attacked for a long


    time! Benjamin, it''s all your fault. You should not have connived or flirted with Charlotte!"


    Madelyn had paid heavy prices for his old romance. After Eleanor had died, her sister appeared and


    harmed her again! Why?


    Now, she only wanted to leave him!


    ...


    When Everest sobered upte at night, she whimpered and threw herself into her mother''s arms.


    Madelyn knew she was scared, so she gently hugged and coaxed her.


    It was cold at night in spring. Everest''s face was red from the cold. She hugged Madelyn''s neck and


    whispered with tears in her eyes, "I am hungry!"


    Madelyn kissed her and said, "I will cook yummy food for you!"


    When she carried Everest into the house, Alexander cried with joy. Everest was finally willing to talk.


    When Everest stood outside, he had been waiting in the living room. Now, he took her over and kissed


    her, wishing he could bear all the sufferings in ce of her.


    After Madelyn cooked the meal, Everest happily enjoyed it.


    Brianna personally made spaghetti for Madelyn and lovingly said, "You will feel warm after eating it!"


    "Thank you!"


    Then, Madelyn had the spaghetti in silence.


    Seeing this, Benjamin felt like an outsider.


    Alexander suddenly snapped, "Benjamin,e with me!"


    ...


    Then, the father and son went to the study.


    Benjamin had just wiped the blood, but Alexander hit him with a paperweight again.


    Then, he pointed at him and angrily said, "You brat! How could you do such a thing? Is it worth it for


    such a woman? Can''t you see how much Madelyn loves the children? She would not have been so


    good to them if she had not loved you!"


    Benjamin was confused.


    Alexander sneered, "I know you don''t remember! But you''re family in the household registration book!


    You are Madelyn''s husband and the kids'' father! Why did you bother to stop that woman when she


    courted death?"


    ...


    After venting his anger, Alexander suddenly felt tired. It waste at night. Under themp, his face


    looked particrly old!


    He waved his hand, sat down, and said in a muffled voice, "Maybe it is fate! Madelyn wants to divorce


    you. Your mother and I are reluctant to part with her. However, she suffered from postpartum


    depression after giving birth to Everest. Benjamin, you can do whatever you want now. But I won''t allow


    you to marry that indecent woman! Besides, the property of our rk family will belong to Everest and


    Francis! That woman will not get a penny!"


    ...


    Benjamin lightly sat down, took out a cigarette, and lit it.


    After being stunned for a long time, he hoarsely said, "Dad, I don''t want to divorce Madelyn!"


    Alexander lightly sighed and tiredly said, "Benjamin, I am also a man! I know what you are thinking. But


    you don''t know you and Madelyn were in love before you lost your memory! You used to have a crush


    on Eleanor. But you and Madelyn went through a lot together. You loved her much more than Eleanor!


    She loves you, but you disappointed her!"


    ...


    Benjamin sat in the study until dawn.


    When the sky became bright, he slowly stood up and went to see Everest.


    She had fallen asleep. And her eyshes were long and cute. Her face was fair, tender, and warm,


    making him want to bite.


    He looked at her for a long time and kissed her. She was intelligent and cute, so he liked her.


    He had a necessary court hearing in the morning, so he went back to his bedroom to change clothes,


    intending to go to the office.


    Unexpectedly, Madelyn was quietly sitting on the sofa in his bedroom. It seemed she had waited for


    him for a long time.


    Seeing the divorce agreement on the coffee table, he froze.


    She wanted to get a divorce without separation!

 Chapter 294 You Are Still My Wife

    Chapter 294 YouAre Still My Wife


    Chapter 294 You Are Still My Wife


    The sunshine was weak in the morning.


    Madelyn''s face was pale when she calmly said, "Sign it!"


    Benjamin stared at her.


    After a long time, he gently closed the door, slowly walked over, picked up the agreement, and


    whispered, "Madelyn, what happened yesterday is an ident. I promise she will never appear in front


    of Everest again!"


    Madelyn sneered. She didn''t want to hear his promises anymore but wanted to protect her children.


    So, she calmly said, "Sign it. We will move out when Everest''s mood gets better."


    Madelyn was sad. When she had moved here, she had had some hope. She had thought he could feel


    the warmth of family here. But maybe she had been wrong since the beginning. She should have given


    up when he had left his family to rescue Charlotte.


    Benjamin stared at her. Seeing the tears in her eyes, he threw the agreement on the coffee table and


    went into the walk-in closet to change clothes. But he couldn''t find suitable clothes after a long time!


    Finally, he stood inside and said, "Madelyn, do you think I have no feelings for you? I would not have


    moved back with you if I had not liked you!"


    He refused to divorce and asked, "Don''t you love me?"


    Madelyn calmly replied, "I''m too tired to love you! I want to live a stable life now!"


    Benjamin had put on a shirt. But he suddenly took it off, threw it aside, and put on another one. After


    repeating it several times, he finally came out, looked at her, and softly said, "I do not agree to divorce!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and smiled, "I will find another way! If you don''t sign, you can''t me me for


    harming your woman!"


    Benjamin sneered, "My woman is you instead of her!"


    She scoffed, thinking his joke was not funny at all.


    She stood up, mmed the door shut, and left without looking back.


    Before Benjamin left home, he went to see Francis. Seeing a servant feeding him milk, he couldn''t help


    asking, "Isn''t Francis breastfed?"


    Madelyn''s breasts were plump and produced more milk than Francis could finish.


    The servant worriedly said, "Mrs. rk stopped producing milkst night. I don''t know the reason!"


    Benjamin was startled. Madelyn had given birth to Francis less than three months ago. Why had she


    suddenly stopped producing milk?


    He hugged Francis in silence and decided to talk with her about their marriage and two children in the


    evening.


    ...


    When the trial ended at eleven, Benjamin walked out of the court and saw a girl standing in front of his


    car. She was covered in blood, and her exposed skin was bruised. Someone had hit her.


    Charlotte''s lips trembled when she said, "Mr. rk, please help me! Please let Mrs. rk spare my life!


    I just wanted to spend time with Everest yesterday. I didn''t mean it. I didn''t know she was sick!"


    Benjamin opened the car door and threw his briefcase in.


    When he turned to look at her again, he lit a cigarette and said, "Why did you go to the kindergarten to


    see my daughter?"


    Charlotte shivered before she whispered, "When you sent me home that night, you had feelings for me,


    right? You like my face! I look like my sister."


    Benjamin slowly blew out a smoke ring, narrowed his eyes, and coldly said, "Your face evoked some


    memories, but those memories are not pleasant! Why do you think you can disturb Everest?"


    Benjamin was not sympathetic to her, although she had been hit.


    He was not promiscuous and had a sense of decency when getting along with women.


    When she had approached him in the car, he had calmly refused! She would have known there was no


    possibility between them if she had been sensible.


    Charlotte''s face became paler, and her injured body trembled. Now, she was at the end of her rope.


    She had been expelled from school again, and herndlord would sell the apartment. She would soon


    be homeless. She told him about her hardships and hoped he would feel sorry for her.


    Benjamin dusted ashes off his cigarette and coldly said, "If you are willing to leave Gredax, contact


    Paisley. You will get thirty thousand dors!"


    Charlotte''s face was as pale as ash. It was not the result she wanted. She wanted to be his


    mistress and then his wife!


    She bit her lower lip and said with tears in her eyes, "Mr. rk, I did not approach you for money!


    You''re my brother-inw. I like you. Don''t you have feelings for me?"


    Paisley rolled her eyes and kindly reminded her, saying, "Ms. Bet was married before her death!


    But her husband was Stanley!"


    Charlotte showed an embarrassed look. She was shameless and wanted to use the incest to arouse


    Benjamin''s interest.


    But he had no feelings for her.


    Men allpared. Compared with Madelyn''s plumpness, Charlotte looked like a thin chick! All sane


    men would choose Madelyn!


    Benjamin didn''t bother to talk with Charlotte anymore, so he said, "I''ll give you three days to think about


    it!"


    When he got in the car, he thought of Madelyn. He didn''t feel sorry for Charlotte but thought Madelyn


    always did things without leaving leeway. He used to do something like this before.


    He got angry when he thought of the mother and daughter in Esrand.


    He knew Madelyn had hit Charlotte not only for revenge. She also wanted to anger and force him to


    sign the divorce agreement. So, he couldn''t help wondering why she was so eager to leave him. Was


    anyone waiting for her? Daniel or Joseph?


    In the afternoon, he drove back to the rks'' mansion because Madelyn was apanying Everest at


    home.


    Everest was taking a nap.


    Benjamin gently touched her warm little face and asked the servant, "Where is Madelyn?"


    The servant cautiously replied, "She is in the basement gym!"


    He had not expected her to have the energy to keep fit. He took off his suit jacket and walked


    downstairs to the basement.


    Madelyn was indeed there.


    The soothing music, her curvy body, and the divorce agreement stimted him. So, he walked over


    and turned up the music.


    Madelyn noticed it, so she stopped exercising, looked at him, and asked, "Why are you back now? Are


    you going to sign the divorce agreement?"


    He walked toward her, hooked her waist with his hand, and pulled her into his arms. Then, he lowered


    his head and passionately kissed her.


    Her body was soft, and her sweaty skin was dazzlingly fair.


    He lovingly caressed and kissed her, saying, "You beat her because you want me to divorce, right?


    Madelyn, why do you think I like her? I would rather sleep with you every day than her. Do you know


    how soft and obedient you are when you have sex? I haven''t slept with you for a few months, so you


    probably have forgotten! I''ll help you recall it!"


    ...


    Benjamin aggressively threw Madelyn onto the soft sofa. She buried her head in the fabric when she


    felt his overwhelming attacks. And even her groans were disjointed.


    Benjamin bit her soft ear and murmured, "It feels so good!"


    They were in the rks'' mansion, so Madelyn could not loudly scream. Otherwise, the servants would


    face aside, and a seductive light blue vein appeared at the end of her eyebrow. Benjamin loved it the


    most. When Madelyn have an orgasm, it would appear.


    After a while, he gently touched it with his slender fingers and gasped, "You are still my wife. If I don''t


    sign the agreement, you will be Mrs. rk!"


    He repeatedly had sex with her. He had not touched her for a long time and missed her smell too


    much, so he had imprisoned her in his arms for more than three hours.


    When it was over, he still held her and refused to let go.


    Madelyn had been f*cked for several hours. When she regained a little strength, she kicked him and


    cried, "Enough! Get off me!"


    Benjamin lowered his head and kissed her.


    After a long time, he whispered, "You''re finally obedient!"


    Madelyn pushed him away and sat up, although she was naked. She gentlybed her coffee-colored


    hair with her fingers and tremblingly said calmly, "Do you think I will change my mind and be


    submissive to you after you f*cked me for a few hours? You think too highly of yourself!"


    Although they had had sex, she would still divorce him!


    After speaking, she walked straight to the bathroom to shower.


    He had put on his wrinkled shirt and trousers when she came out. He stared at her and asked in a


    muffled voice, "Why are you wearing such clothes? Are you going out?"


    Madelyn picked up her phone from the sofa and walked outside.


    He grabbed her by her arm and asked her where she was going.


    She shook off his hand and said, "I''m going to buy oral contraceptives! Do you think I will continue to


    give birth to your child?"


    She had stopped producing milkst night, and her period would soon return. They had had sex today


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    so that she might get pregnant.

 Chapter 295 Signing the Divorce Agreement

    Chapter 295 Signing the Divorce Agreement


    Chapter 295 Signing the Divorce Agreement


    After a long time, Benjamin hoarsely said, "I''ll buy them!"


    It was improper for a woman to buy such things alone!


    Since he had offered to run errands, Madelyn didn''t refuse. Besides, he had f*cked her so hard that she


    felt weak in her legs.


    When he returned with the pills half an hourter, Madelyn was in the bedroom. She opened the bottle


    and swallowed the capsules with warm water. And she felt ufortable when eating.


    After taking the pills, she turned to look at him and said, "Please get out!"


    Men would be more easygoing after satisfying sex. So, he did not get angry when she chased


    him away. Instead, he sat beside her and hoarsely said, "You are squeamish when taking pills. But you


    did not get hurt when having sex."


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and whispered, "Benjamin, it''s boring!"


    He knew she minded Charlotte''s matter, so he whispered, "I did not help her anymore!"


    "Really? Can you exin why you offered to give her thirty thousand dors?"


    ...


    He had not expected her to know about it and immediately guessed Paisley had told her.


    He gently stroked her coffee-colored hair and hoarsely said, "Madelyn, you need to leave some leeway


    when doing things! I have no feelings for her. Can you believe me?"


    Madelyn sneered. Even if they had had sex, they still parted on bad terms.


    Benjamin refused to divorce and became attentive to his wife and children.


    He knew Madelyn had found a house and was waiting for him to sign the divorce agreement. But he


    had had no chance to get close to her for half a month. When Madelyn returned home, she always


    slept with Everest.


    Everest continued to see the psychiatrist, and Madelyn treated him even more coldly.


    Half a monthter, Benjamin closed the document in Bravo Legal Firm and said, "Paisley, book two air


    tickets to Esrand. I will be on a business trip for a week."


    Paisley nodded, "Yes, Mr. rk!"


    When she was about to leave, he stopped her and weighed his words before saying, "You have a good


    rtionship with Madelyn. Can you help me persuade her?"


    Paisley fell into an embarrassing position. When the big shots fought, she was implicated!


    Seeing her embarrassment, he coldly said, "You can get out!"


    After she gently closed the door, he leaned back in the chair and slightly turned, thinking about


    Madelyn. Everything was out of order! He had never wanted a marriage or a wife. He had asked her to


    sign a separation agreement when he returned. But now, he did not want to let her go. He became a


    little self-loathing!


    Suddenly, his phone on the table rang. When he casually looked at it, he found it was Madelyn calling.


    He immediately picked it up. And his Adam''s apple rolled before he asked, "What''s up?"


    Madelyn was not as cold as usual. She gently said, "If you have time, let''s have coffee together!"


    Coffee? The invitation was tempting.


    Benjamin gently turned the leather seat and hoarsely asked, "Are you going to discuss the divorce


    again?"


    "No!"


    He stood up, picked up the car keys, and said, "Where are you? I''ll pick you up!"


    Madelyn sent him the address.


    Half an hourter, Benjamin''s car stopped in front of a five-star hotel. Madelyn was sitting in the coffee


    shop on the first floor. The ss walls gave it a good view.


    He pushed the door open, sat opposite her, and looked at her beige woolen dress. It looked warm, soft,


    and feminine, so he liked it and said, "It''s pretty!"


    Then, he added, "We haven''t never dated yet!"


    He had neglected his duty. But Madelyn didn''t care.


    She was not as indifferent as usual and ordered his favorite ck coffee for him and a dessert for


    herself.


    Benjamin looked deeply at her.


    He liked her softness, so he yelled out love words, saying, "I''m going to Esrand on a business trip for a


    week. Can you and Everest go with me? I''ll apany you in the evening."


    Madelyn calmly smiled, "Let''s talk about itter!"


    When he was about to convince her, he suddenly saw two acquaintances from the corner of his eye.


    It was Charlotte and Jackson!


    Wearing casual clothes and sunsses, Jackson walked out of the hotel elevator with Charlotte in his


    arms. They must have had sex just now because there was a blush on her face. Then, Jackson stuffed


    the thousand dors in her hands and made another appointment.


    Benjamin coldly looked at Madelyn and asked, "Did you arrange it?"


    This scene reminded him of what had happened in Monatiz many years ago. He had seen Eleanor


    have sex with the fitness trainer. And the used condoms had been all over the floor. It had made him


    sick!


    Madelyn did not deny it but elegantly stirred the coffee.


    "Yes! I arranged it! Charlotte refused your thirty thousand dors but chose to sleep with Jackson. He


    paid her two thousand for two hours! She could make the money because her face resembled


    Eleanor''s! But she will still look pure when she appears in front of you next time!"


    ...


    Benjamin looked at her as if she were a stranger. He didn''t care whom Charlotte slept with. He only


    knew Madelyn had trampled his male self-esteem into pieces!


    So, he coldly said, "Madelyn, I underestimated you!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and said, "I have a sex video of Jackson and Charlotte. Do you want to


    watch it?"


    She was hateful!


    When Benjamin pulled her up and walked to the parking lot, they bumped into Charlotte.


    Charlotte looked panicked like a frightening bunny and instinctively exined with tears in her eyes,


    "Mr. rk, you misunderstood!"


    He dragged Madelyn and threw her into the car without sparing a look at Charlotte.


    He trapped her with his slender body. They were in the parking lot, but he rolled up her dress to her


    waist in the car, caressed her angrily, and asked, "Mrs. rk, how many faces do you have?"


    When she asked him to have coffee, he felt ecstatic. He had thought she had thought it through and


    wanted to start over with him. He had never expected her to cooperate with Jackson, who was a jerk!


    What Benjamin wanted was a gentle wife instead of such an aggressive one.


    He suddenly stopped moving and stared at her. Her eyes were dull. She had done such a thing to


    divorce him.


    He found she was right. It was boring!


    So, he leaned over and whispered into her ear like a lover, "As you wish, we will divorce! It''s not


    because of Charlotte. It is because we are not suitable!"


    ...


    After speaking, he sat up, climbed into the driver''s seat, casually buttoned his shirt, lowered his head,


    and lit a cigarette.


    Charlotte was patting the window outside while the coupe in the car was silent. It was ironic.


    Madelyn fixed her clothes and slowly sat up. She knew she had pissed Benjamin off. Charlotte was a


    taboo not only for her but also for him.


    He wanted Charlotte to be clean and pour. But Madelyn had ruined it.


    She thought Benjamin hated her now.


    After he finished smoking a cigarette, the car was full of smoke. Then, he lightly said, "I will sign the


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    divorce agreement after I return from my business trip."


    ...


    Soon, Benjamin''s love affair with a young actress was exposed in Esrand. They had been


    photographed together many times!


    The actress hired the reporters to excite the love affair, but Benjamin did not deny it. He allowed the


    love affair to ferment and be headlines.


    Madelyn had seen the news but had not asked him about it. After all, they would divorce soon.


    After Benjamin returned to Gredax, he didn''t go home for a week. But he had promised to sign the


    divorce agreement.


    When Madelyn bumped into him at an Edofordian restaurant, he was having a meal with the young


    actress, who looked pretty and elegant.


    Seeing her, Benjamin smiled.


    He did not avoid her but thoughtfully ordered a dessert for his femalepanion. The actress


    overlooked Madelyn and happily epted it.


    Madelyn looked a little pale when she passed by them. She thought they would get married soon. After


    all, Mr. rk had apanied the actress from Esrand to Gredax.


    The person she made an appointment with didn''t show up, so she ate alone. Looking up, she


    asionally met Benjamin''s deep and thoughtful eyes. So, she didn''t look at him.


    A tall figure blocked her view when she lowered her head to cut the steak. When she raised her eyes,


    Benjamin sat opposite her. Before she could speak, he calmly asked, "Are you still living at home?"


    Madelyn''s slender fingers paused before softly saying, "I''ll move out after you sign the agreement!"


    Benjamin leaned back, gently touched his noble white shirt, and said with a half-smile, "You can move


    out even if I don''t sign! But if you insist, we will sign it tonight!"


    He deliberately bullied her! Although they would divorce, he should have maintained a good demeanor.


    But he wanted to see her calm face crack into pieces! He tried to hurt her!


    The actress had chased him to Gredax and asked him to be her legal advisor. He didn''t like her. But


    when she had let the reporters expose their "love affair," he had not denied it. He knew Madelyn would


    feel ufortable about it! He had decided to give up on her. They would have nothing to do with each


    other after signing the divorce agreement!


    He was hateful and spoiled Madelyn''s appetite. So, she put down the knife and fork and said, "Good!


    We can sign it now!"

 Chapter 296 Diary

    Chapter 296 Diary


    Chapter 296 Diary


    When Paisley sent the agreementte at night, Benjamin and Madelyn sat in the study room.


    He decisively and readily signed it.


    When it was Madelyn''s turn, she held the agreement and looked at it for a long time before leaning


    over to sign her name with tears in her eyes.


    Benjamin leaned back on the sofa, looked at her for a few seconds, and said mockingly, "Isn''t it what


    you want?"


    He felt happy because he finally made her ufortable.


    Madelyn was in a bad mood. She was different from him. He did not love her, so the divorce could not


    hurt him. But she had divorced him without losing her memories.


    From now on, they would be like strangers.


    Madelyn gently put down her pen, stood up, and whispered, "I will move out with the kids tomorrow


    morning!"


    Benjamin was startled because he had not expected them to move out so soon.


    Madelyn fell silent. She held the doorknob, gently opened the door, and went out. Then, the door lightly


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    closed.


    When Benjamin stared at the door, his happiness slowly disappeared.


    ...


    People from the movingpany began to work early in the morning. When Benjamin tied his tie and


    went downstairs, he saw many peopleing in and out.


    Madelyn was in the living room.


    She calmly said, "I''ll have the things in the vi moved away in a few days. And I want the piano."


    Seeing her so calm, Benjamin lumped in his throat and said, "Whatever!"


    Madelyn nodded and got in Henry''s car.


    Benjamin did not go to the office. He waited until the people from the movingpany moved all


    Madelyn''s things away. Then, he slowly walked to the second floor.


    It was empty. In the newly renovated bedroom, all the things belonging to Madelyn had been moved


    out.


    He slowly sat on the bed and felt a little irritable. So, he lit a cigarette and quietly smoked it. He thought


    Madelyn was cruel because she had left without hesitation.


    Suddenly, an old servant knocked on the door and cautiously said, "Sir, the movingpany left a


    small box of Mrs. rk. The box looks expensive, so the things inside must be important!"


    Benjamin stretched his hand and said, "Let me look!"


    After the servant handed him the box, Benjamin held the cigarette in one hand and touched it with the


    other.


    He could tell the thing was specially kept in the box and thought it must be Madelyn''s treasure. Maybe


    it was some jewelry worth hundreds of millions of dors!


    Then, he casually opened it. Unexpectedly, there was no jewelry but an old diary and a small voice


    recorder.


    He frowned, wondering why she regarded things as treasures.


    After he gently opened the diary, his blood froze. It was his handwriting. And the content was his love


    for Madelyn.


    "I love Madelyn!"


    "She likes to y the piano and wear XX brand''s clothes!"


    "I give her roses every day."


    "Our first child is named Everest. Madelyn risked her life to give birth to her! Everest is in poor health.


    She has a coagtion disorder and Rh-negative blood type."


    "Madelyn has been pregnant for over six weeks! I must not argue with her."


    "Madelyn can''t drive."


    "When Madelyn hugs me, she wants me to kiss her. No matter how important the thing I am doing, I


    must put it aside and kiss her. She is still young but gave birth to my two children. She likes it when I


    call her Baby Mama!"


    ...


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apple couldn''t stop rolling when he quickly turned the pages.


    The entire dairy was about such things.


    Benjamin''s handsome face turned a little pale. After he turned on the recorder, his voice slowly flowed


    into the bedroom where Madelyn had lived.


    "Madelyn, I may no longer be by your side when you hear this. You must be crying. Fool girl, don''t cry!


    We are legally married and have two children! There is a boy in your belly. And I want to name him


    Francis. Madelyn, please look for me. Don''t give up, no matter what! I love you. I can''t bear to live


    without you. No matter how carefree and glorious my life used to be, it couldn''tpare to the days


    after I met you! Madelyn, I love you! I need you to be brave for me, OK?"


    ...


    Benjamin fell into a trance. He had loved Madelyn so profoundly and asked her not to give up. But he


    had quickly divorced her.


    He closed the box and dialed Madelyn''s number to ask her about it. But she did not answer his call.


    When he called Henry, thetter was leaning against the car and smoking. Hearing his question, Henry


    casually replied, "Mrs. rk is in the cemetery. She seems to be digging something!"


    Cemetery!


    Benjamin picked up the car keys and hurried downstairs. When he got in the car and touched the


    steering wheel, his heart was widely beating. He didn''t know why she had gone to the cemetery but


    had a hunch that something must be important!


    After reading the diary, he didn''t know what he should do but wanted to stop her.


    ...


    It was March, so the roses Benjamin had nted for Madelyn had not bloomed. The rks'' Cemetery


    looked deserted.


    Madelyn quietly stood before the stone wall carved with Benjamin & Madelyn in a white coat, mourning


    her dead love.


    After a long while, she softly said, "Benjamin, I''m sorry. But I''m going to break my promise!"


    She gave up because she did not think that day woulde.


    She always remembered they had been deeply in love. Perhaps only the love in her memory was


    beautiful and worthy of her protection. She should not have tried to change a man who did not love her.


    A faint smile appeared on her lips when she murmured, "Benjamin, I''m back. I will only guard you from


    now on. There will be no one else between us!"


    She moved the stone wall aside and took out the diamond ring. After many years of sleeping, it was as


    dazzling as before.


    She shed tears when she gently put the diamond ring on her slender ring finger and repeated,


    "Benjamin, I''m back!"


    ...


    At the cemetery entrance, Benjamin stopped the car and jumped out.


    He saw Madelyn from a distance! He saw her gently put a diamond ring on her finger and kiss it with


    tears in her eyes. It was like a ceremony and a confession!


    Benjamin''s face turned pale when he shouted, "Madelyn!"


    Under the morning light, she slowly turned her head back and quietly looked at him.


    In the breeze, she blossomed like a summer flower. But she no longer belonged to him. After all, they


    were divorced.

 Chapter 297 Is There Any Possibility Between Us

    Chapter 297 Is There Any Possibility Between Us


    Chapter 297 Is There Any Possibility Between Us


    Benjamin always lived his life freely. He had never been so panicked, feeling lost in something


    meaningful. He wanted to catch it. But Madelyn had decided to let go.


    After he had read the diary and listened to the recording, he kept thinking about his attitude toward her


    these days.


    He had let Charlotte work in his firm and left Madelyn behind to save her on New Year''s Day. He had


    med Madelyn for being cruel. After she had given him the silent treatment, he had allowed Charlotte


    to approach him because he had wanted to test his feelings for her. And he had let the actress spread


    their love affair in anger.


    Madelyn had not made a fuss but calmly signed the agreement. She had finally given up on their


    rtionship. She no longer wanted him!


    Benjamin slowly walked over and said, "Madelyn!"


    When she stood upright in the sunshine, the 52-carat diamond ring on her finger sparkled, stinging his


    eyes.


    He hoarsely said, "I read the diary and listened to the recording!"


    He had a lot to say but couldn''t make a sound, although he was a famouswyer who was eloquent in


    court. He was at a loss.


    The overwhelming emotion in the recorder was much more intense than his crush on Eleanor when he


    was young. He had never expressed his love for a woman so passionately and had been shocked to


    hear his voice say such words.


    Madelyn was stunned to hear this but soon recovered from the shock. Then, she asked, "Where are


    the things?"


    He hoarsely replied, "In my car!"


    She said, "I''ll go to grab them!"


    Then, she walked toward the entrance of the cemetery. When she passed him, he grabbed her thin


    wrist, refused to give them back, and said, "Madelyn, you promised not to give up on me! I need more


    time!"


    She lightly blinked, lowered her eyes to the diamond ring, and said, "Benjamin, hasn''t I waited long


    enough? Didn''t I give you enough opportunities? When I promised not to give up, I did not expect


    Charlotte''s appearance. I have never expected you to think she and the actress are more important


    than me! My husband could never bear to do this to me!"


    ...


    After finishing speaking, Madelyn felt exhausted.


    She pushed his hand away and walked toward the entrance of the cemetery. The sun was bright,


    dazzling her eyes.


    Benjamin stood and looked at the stone wall carved with Benjamin & Madelyn.


    He suddenly realized she had left her love here before he could love her.


    *


    No matter how low-key the rk family was, news of their divorce spread. Although the significant


    media dared not directly report the information, they had hinted at it.


    It was the actress named Kaylee who confirmed the news by making an official announcement. She


    had met Mr. rk''s beautiful ex-wife. He had ordered dessert for her in front of his ex-wife at the


    restaurant. And then, she had heard them talk about getting a divorce. She thought he had done it for


    her. After all, she must be much more seductive than a wealthydy. Besides, that woman had given


    birth to two children, so her figure must not be as good as hers. Therefore, she had the confidence to


    do such a thing.


    Kaylee posted a photo of her and Benjamin at a banquet and tweeted, "April is great, Mr. rk!"


    And it immediately became a trending topic!


    Five minutester, the tweet was deleted. But the gossipyizens were excited about it. No one knew


    whether the love affair between Benjamin and Kaylee was true. But he and Madelyn were indeed


    divorced!


    Their divorce had been a trending topic for three days. The rk family kept a low profile as always,


    and Madelyn would not take the initiative to step forward to bear the fire.


    Divorce was not shameful. She worked and took care of the kids as usual. And she protected Everest


    well! People soon discovered Madelyn did not feel sad or frustrated. Instead, she became more


    radiant.


    After the banquet ended, the hotel entrance was brightly lit by crystal lights.


    Madelyn walked out side by side with Joseph in a high-end dress, discussing business affairs.


    The night in April was a bit cool.


    Joseph draped the shawl on her like a gentleman and said, "Ms. Green, it''s a little cold. Please put it


    on!"


    Madelyn smiled, "Thank you! Where were we?"


    Josephughed, "The development n of the South!"


    Madelyn lowered her eyes and thoughtfully said, "It is our key project. Let''s have a field trip next


    month!"


    Joseph''s heart skipped a beat. Looking at her calm face, he admired her more. After all, she was


    excellent.


    When Madelyn was about to say something more, a person exited her car. It was Benjamin!


    He had waited for her in the car for a long time. He was a man, so he could see Joseph''s admiration


    and felt ufortable. After all, he had personally sent Joseph to her side.


    Madelyn was not surprised to see him. After she said goodbye to Joseph and got into the car, Benjamin


    followed her in and eagerly said, "That''s not true! I don''t like her!"


    He had never thought about marrying someone else. He had not denied the love affair back then


    because he had wanted to anger Madelyn.


    Madelyn didn''t care. She lowered the car window and smiled, "We''ve divorced, so I don''t care whether


    your love affair is true. Mr. rk, when you get married again, I will give you a big wedding gift!"


    Her generous words angered Benjamin. He looked out the window and lit a cigarette but soon stubbed


    it. Then, he irritably asked, "Are you nning to remarry?"


    Madelyn thought for a while and said, "I don''t know. I may get married when I meet the right person."


    Benjamin thought of Joseph because they had looked intimate just now.


    At the intersection, Madelyn asked him to get out of the car. But he said he wanted to visit his children.


    Madelyn remained silent momentarily before she whispered, "Benjamin, I don''t care if you regret it or


    suddenly became interested in me. You can see the children if you want. But please don''t harass me


    physically or verbally. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to remain friends! It''s toote today. You can


    go to visit them another time!"


    She refused him because she knew his real purpose. She did not want to be alone with him in the


    middle of the night. After all, she could not resist if he tried to rape her.


    Finally, Benjamin got off at the intersection.


    Henry praised Madelyn for doing a good job. He thought it was right to cold-shoulder a man who had


    cheated on her with an actress. But Madelyn felt tired.


    The expensive ck RV stopped in front of a vi when the night got deeper. Madelyn tightened her


    shawl when she got out of the car. The light was dim when she slowly went upstairs to see her children.


    Alexander had allowed her to take Everest and Francis away, so she was grateful to him.


    Francis was still young. He always slept after eating. And the nanny took good care of him.


    Then, Madelyn went to check on Everest. Everest was lying upside down on the bed in one-piece


    pajamas in the pink bedroom. After Madelyn took off her high heels and patted her butt, she rolled over,


    raised her fair and tender face, touched Madelyn''s clothes, and said, "Mom, you look beautiful!"


    Madelyn tucked her in and gently asked, "It''ste. Why don''t you sleep?"


    Everest leaned into her arms and whispered, "I miss Daddy!"


    Madelyn, a little sad to hear this, softly asked, "Do you want to call him?"


    Everest happily nodded. After she took out her pink phone and dialed Benjamin''s number, he quickly


    answered.


    Madelyn didn''t want to give him illusions, so she exited Everest''s bedroom and let her talk to him alone.


    Everest liked Benjamin, so she instantly said, "Daddy, I miss you!"


    She wanted to sleep with him and put her little feet on his belly. It would be warm.


    Benjamin had just returned home. He untied his tie and said in a deep voice, "Where''s Mom?"


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Everest cutely said, "She is back! She smells great! But I still miss you. I want you to read me fairy


    tales."


    Benjamin''s heart melted. He had always been iron-hearted. But listening to her soft voice, he greatly


    missed her and wanted a family.


    Then, he picked up a fairy tale book and gently and patiently read it to her.


    As the night became increasingly dark, Everest slowly fell asleep.


    Finally, Madelyn picked up the phone and whispered, "She fell asleep!"


    Benjamin''s heart skipped a beat when he heard her soft voice. Then, he asked the question he had


    wanted to ask just now in a muffled voice, saying, "Madelyn, is there any possibility between us?"


    Madelyn was startled to hear this. After a moment, she whispered, "No!"


    Then, she hung up the phone.


    She didn''t cry because she had cried for him too many times. She had looked indifferent for the past


    few months but had suffered a lot inside.


    Benjamin slowly put down the phone and poured himself a ss of whiskey. Then, he took out the


    video and repeatedly watched it, seeing Madelyn control his desires.


    Now, he knew he had deeply loved her. They had been deeply in love. It was hard for him to ept


    that she would fall in love and sleep with someone else one day. He could not stand even thinking


    about it!


    She should be his!


    Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Benjamin turned off the video and hoarsely said, "Come in!"


    Eloise came in with ate-night snack and softly said, "Benjamin, you haven''t eaten well for days."


    Benjamin smiled and epted her kindness.


    She sat down and said in embarrassment, "Many people are pursuing Madelyn. Don''t you have a


    sense of crisis?"


    Benjamin lost his appetite. He wiped his lips and calmly asked, "How are they pursuing her?"


    Eloise whispered, "They send her gifts."


    "Do you know what she likes?"


    Eloise carefully thought for a long time and said with tears in her eyes, "She likes you the most."


    Benjamin was stunned because he had not expected such an answer.


    He took out a cigarette, lit it, and silently smoked it. Then, he repeatedly thought about Eloise''s words


    and bitterly smiled, "But she doesn''t want me now!"


    He wanted to get back together with her, but she was unwilling to give him a chance.

 Chapter 298 I Am No Longer Mrs. Clark

    Chapter 298 I Am No Longer Mrs. rk


    Chapter 298 I Am No Longer Mrs. rk


    When Benjamin was reading a document in the office early in the morning, Paisley pushed the door


    open, lowered her voice, and said, "Mr. rk, Miss Tanner''s agent, has been here several times. He


    wants to talk to you."


    Benjamin sipped coffee and asked, "Who is Miss Tanner?"


    Paisley was stunned before she bit the bullet and replied, "She is the actress Kaylee Tanner!"


    It turned out to be her. Benjamin almost forgot that he had deliberately suppressed her after she had


    posted that tweet. No director dared to cooperate with her now.


    He coldly said, "I won''t meet him! Don''t bother me with such things anymore!"


    Paisley nodded and went out.


    The agent was disappointed. He had tried many ways, but Benjamin still refused to meet him. So, he


    knew he was angry.


    Because Benjamin suppressed Kaylee, her career became sluggish!


    ...


    A new product seminar was happening in the conference room on the top floor of the Everest Group.


    An ignorant man enthusiastically said, "Ms. Green, I rmend Kaylee to endorse our newly


    developed shower gel!"


    As soon as he finished speaking, the conference room fell silent. Sitting next to Madelyn, Gloria did not


    dare to breathe loudly.


    Surprisingly, Madelyn was not angry. Instead, she calmly asked, "How much does she quote?"


    "2.8 million dors!"


    Madelyn stood up and said, "Ask her toe to Everest Group with the quotation."


    When Kaylee came in the afternoon, Madelyn met her at thepany gym.


    Kaylee was always proud because she was young, rich, and famous. She had thought she was better


    than Madelyn in all aspects but lost her confidence when seeing thetter work out.


    Madelyn''s figure was much better than Kaylee had imagined! She had given birth to children, so she


    was plump. But her waist was thin, and her legs were long, straight, and white. Kaylee believed no man


    could forget after holding them. So, she felt tight in her throat when she said, "Mrs. rk, good


    afternoon!"


    Madelyn heard her words but ignored her.


    Gloria leaned over and said, "Ms. Green, Miss Tanner is here!"


    Madelyn sweated a lot after the workout. She wiped her face with a towel, sat in the rest area, and


    motioned for Kaylee to sit down.


    "Please call me Ms. Green. I am no longer Mrs. rk!"


    Kaylee''s agent quickly put the quotation on the table and boasted about the awards Kaylee had won.


    He implied they would not reduce the price because 2.8 million was reasonable.


    Madelyn didn''t look at the quotation. She nced at Kaylee and calmly said, "Miss Tanner, your


    physical condition is good!"


    Kaylee forced a smile. She was so close to Madelyn that she could see how good her skin was. It was


    fair and tender without pores. Moreover, her worth was hundreds of billions of dors. So, Kaylee


    slowly lost her pride.


    After Gloria served them coffee, Madelyn had half a cup and said, "Mypany needs an advertising


    model for shower gel. I am willing to meet Miss Tanner because she is cheap. Your quotation needs to


    be updated. I know no one in your industry dares to cooperate with her. But if she epts my offer and


    cooperates with the Everest Group, she will immediately escape the predicament!"


    She hit the nail on the head.


    Kaylee''s agent pondered momentarily and said, "Ms. Green, what''s your offer?"


    Madelyn calmly said, "Three hundred thousand dors!"


    Three hundred thousand dors was too little, so the agent was unwilling to agree.


    Madelyn picked up a magazine, casually flipped through it, and calmly said, "I won''t force you! Gloria,


    please send the guests out!"


    Although Kaylee made her depressed, she still wanted a low price and a good deal.


    When Gloria gestured for the guests to leave with a smile, Kaylee didn''t get up. Instead, she stiffly said,


    "I agree with three hundred thousand dors!"


    Three hundred thousand dors was low, but this job opportunity was essential to her. She should not


    have underestimated Madelyn before because thetter was challenging.


    Kaylee felt ufortable. After signing the unfair contract, she became more annoyed and blurted,


    "Ms. Green, don''t you want to know the story between Mr. rk and me?"


    Madelyn looked at the contract and said, "I didn''t ask before. And there''s no need for me to know now!


    If you publish an autobiography and write your story in the book, I will buy one!"


    ...


    Kaylee felt so embarrassed that her face flushed. After she left, Madelyn called the R&D manager over,


    threw the contract to him, and tly said, "The shower gel is named Crush."


    The manager soon read the endorsement contract. The contract was only three hundred thousand


    dors, and the product name was Crush. Kaylee must have felt ufortable about it.


    Madelyn fiddled with her phone and softly said, "She posted the photo on Twitter to hype. It is an eye


    for an eye!"


    She was sure the new product would be a hit!


    As Madelyn expected, Crush sold 12 million units on the major tforms on the first day of the release,


    bing the best seller in the daily chemical department.


    The Everest Group''s shares kept rising for three days, so Alexander called Madelyn to praise her and


    said he would hand over the rk Group if she were willing. And he was ready to help her take care of


    the kids. Madelyn refused.


    After hanging up the phone, she soaked in the luxurious bathtub full of bubbles. She held the shower


    gel and smiled. After the bath, she stood up and put on her bathrobe.


    It waste, so she nned to bed after checking on the children. But as soon as she walked out of the


    bathroom, she saw a person in the bedroom.


    Benjamin was sitting on the soft bed and smoking with his head high.


    He was dressed in ck and looked handsome. When he smoked, he looked sexy. But Madelyn was in


    no mood to admire him. She tightened her bathrobe and coldly asked, "Why are you in my bedroom?


    Do you need me to remind you that we are divorced every day?"


    Benjamin looked at her and softly said, "I''m here to see Everest and Francis!"


    Madelynbed her long hair at the dressing table, saying, "You shouldn''t havee to my bedroom.


    We can talk in the living room!"


    Benjamin stubbed out the cigarette and said, "You don''t like Kaylee. Why did you let her endorse your


    product?"


    Madelyn slowlybed her long hair and smiled, "Do you want me to tell the truth?"


    Benjamin''s eyes darkened.


    While applying skin care products, she slowly said, "I have invested a lot of money in the shower gel,


    but the smell is average. And the sample feedback is not good. Then, Kaylee came to beg me! She is


    cheap. She is a superstar, but her price is only three hundred thousand dors. Moreover, I can use her

    scandal with you to excite."


    Madelyn chuckled, "People want to know what smell you like, right?"


    ...


    After finishing speaking, she sniffed at her neck. And the simple action was full of temptation in


    Benjamin''s eyes. Although she was hateful, he was deeply attracted.


    He stood up, walked over, put his hands on both sides of her body, leaned over, and hoarsely said,


    "What if I like the smell of you?"


    Madelyn''s face turned cold when she snapped, "Sorry, you won''t enjoy it anymore!"


    Seeing her tender flesh, he wanted to hug her but did not dare.


    After talking nonsense with him for a long time, she thought of something important and asked, "Where


    are the diary and voice recorder?"


    "Do you want them? I will give them to you if you let me sleep here tonight. I won''t do anything. I want


    to spend some time with you and the children."


    ...


    Madelyn knew it was a trick. When she was about to push him away, the nanny shouted in panic,


    "Madam, Francis has a fever!"

 Chapter 299 You Have Changed a Lot

    Chapter 299 You Have Changed a Lot


    Chapter 299 You Have Changed a Lot


    Madelyn hurried to the nursery. Francis was sick. She was distressed to see his face turn red because


    of the high fever. She quickly changed her clothes and said to the servant, "Get the car ready. We will


    immediately go to the hospital!"


    Seeing her panicked, Benjamin held her hand and said, "It will take at least half an hour for the driver to


    arrive here. I''ll send you to the hospital!"


    Then, he picked up Francis.


    He was tall and could easily hold the child. Madelyn quickly followed behind him.


    The night was cold.


    She soon opened the backseat door and got in. When Benjamin carefully handed Francis to her, she


    raised her head and met his eyes.


    He whispered, "Madelyn, I know you are disappointed in me! But Everest and Francis are my children.


    I also love them!"


    Madelyn''s eyes slightly turned moist, but she didn''t say anything, thinking they could not quarrel at


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    such a time, no matter what.


    The ck car ran fast at night, so they arrived at the hospital half an hourter.


    After an examination, the doctor diagnosed Francis with acute pneumonia. It was not a severe illness,


    but he would be hospitalized for a week.


    After being put on a drip, the several-month-old child suffered a lot, so he cried so severely that his


    face turned red. Madelyn felt distressed.


    Late at night, Francis''s body temperature finally dropped. Madelyn sat on the edge of the hospital bed


    and gently touched his little face. She felt guilty because moving house once after another was not


    good for his health.


    Benjamin stood in front of the window and quietly looked at her.


    He had always regarded her as a member of the opposite sex. But now, she was a fragile mother who


    only cared about their son.


    Benjamin couldn''t help walking over. He gently stroked her long hair and let her rest on his belly.


    Madelyn was too tired, so she didn''t break free and even lightly closed her eyes. However, the


    tendernesssted for only ten seconds. Then, she pushed him away.


    Benjamin hoarsely said, "Get some sleep! I''ll look after him!"


    Madelyn nodded but could not fall asleep. She went to the bathroom, wetted a towel with warm water,


    and gently wiped Francis''s body. Then, she returned to the bathroom to wash the towel.


    Benjamin stood behind her and asked in a muffled voice, "How did we get along in the past?"


    Madelyn paused as she hung the towel. She knew him too well. His behavior tonight and question


    showed he wanted to return to his family. So, she calmly replied, "It''s meaningless to ask about it now!"


    Benjamin touched her shoulder and whispered, "Madelyn, can you tell me?"


    Madelyn smiled, "You are not him!"


    She gently pushed him away and seriously continued, "Benjamin, we are divorced! Apart from the


    children''s matters, we have nothing to do with each other. Don''t flirt with me. Please leave here


    tomorrow morning!"


    Benjamin was frustrated. Under the dim light, he looked at her and softly said, "Francis is also my son!"


    He wanted to be a good father, so he spent the next few days in the hospital.


    Francis was getting much better and would be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow.


    Madelyn sat in the ward and read the documents for a while. When she looked up, Benjamin was


    feeding Francis milk. After several days of practice, he was skilled now. Holding Francis''s chubby little


    body in his arms, he showed a gentle expression.


    Seeing this, Madelyn remembered he had also treated Everest so tenderly before losing his memory.


    So, she felt sad. And the corners of her eyes became slightly moist.


    When Benjamin raised his eyes, he happened to see this.


    Madelyn whispered, "I''m going to buy coffee!"


    Then, she stood up and gathered her Dior shawl.


    Benjamin didn''t stop her because he could see she was missing her "Benjamin."


    *


    Madelyn breathed a sigh of relief when she walked out of the inpatient department. There was a


    Starbucks on the first floor. She ordered a cup of coffee, sat down, held it in her hand, and slowly


    enjoyed it. She had not expected to meet Charlotte and Jackson here.


    Jackson looked impatient. He had just slept with Charlotte a few times. But she nagged him, made a


    scene, and insisted on meeting him!


    He asked with a cigarette between his fingers, "What''s up? Are you short of money again?"


    Charlotte gently handed a pregnancy test sheet to him and whispered, "Don''t get me wrong, Mr.


    Mason. I''m pregnant!"


    Jackson sneered, "Don''t fool me! I used condoms every time!"


    Charlotte lowered her eyes and said, "After we were done the first time, you suddenly wanted more.


    So, we..."


    Jackson remembered it. But he knew she had gotten pregnant on purpose because she had not taken


    the pills. So, he felt annoyed and gruffly said, "I''ll give you money! Abort it!"


    He was only willing to give her 30 thousand dors.


    Charlotte pursed her lips and whispered, "I want to give birth to it!"


    Jackson intensely stared at her. His lips trembled for a long time because he wanted to agree.


    But a couple and a child suddenly entered the coffee shop. The couple was Vivian and Grayson.


    They came to the hospital to see Francis and happened to see Madelyn through the window. So, they


    came over to say hello. And they had not expected to meet Jackson.


    Vivian was ill at ease to see her ex-husband. Jackson snapped the cigarette between his fingers into


    two pieces when he looked at the woman he used to like. They had been married for several years. But


    now, she was someone else''s wife. And even their child could walk. But he was still negotiating with a


    whore!


    Jackson''s eyes turned red. When he looked at Charlotte again, he firmly said, "Abort it, and I''ll give you


    70 thousand dors!"


    Charlotte wanted to fight for more. But Jackson wrote a check and coldly said, "Get lost!"


    She was not stupid and did not dare to keep the baby.


    When Vivian and Grayson went to the ward, Madelyn stayed in the coffee shop to finish her coffee.


    Jackson walked over, sat opposite her, and deeply looked at her.


    The Everest Group was his primary client. He had not expected himself to cooperate with Madelyn.


    And he had never expected her to have changed so much.


    He had made mistakes when he was young. After repeatedly thinking about it, he could only talk with


    her about those things.


    "Madelyn, I regret it! You must beughing at me. But I do regret it. I have had many women, but no


    one cares for me as much as Vivian did!"


    He wished he could turn back the clock but knew it was impossible.


    Madelyn smiled.


    Jackson deeply looked at her and said, "You have changed a lot!"


    They had known each other since they were young. After over ten years, he could not help feeling


    emotional to talk with her again.


    Madelyn maintained her smile. She had promised to inject 28.5 million into hispany and remained


    calm when talking to him.


    When looking at her face, Jackson was a little absent-minded because he thought of Vivian.


    While they were silent, a person sat at the table. It was none other than Benjamin!


    When Vivian and Grayson had entered the ward, he hade over for fear that Madelyn would be sad


    alone.


    Unexpectedly, she was having a pleasant talk with Jackson.


    Benjamin felt a little jealous, thinking Madelyn was too attractive. After all, she was good-looking and


    good at flirting.


    Benjamin wanted to proim sovereignty, so he gently asked, "Why have you sat there so long?"


    Although Jackson was a scumbag, he could see Benjamin''s jealousy as a man. So, he felt happy.


    Karma was a b*tch! He wanted to see how Benjamin chased after his wife.


    He stood up and said attentively, "I will go to the Everest Group to sign the contract in a few days!"


    Madelyn nodded.


    As soon as Jackson left, Benjamin asked, "Is he chasing after you?"


    "You are sick!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to talk to him, so she fixed her shawl and stood up.


    He grabbed her thin wrist and said, "Madelyn!"


    She pushed his hand away. He grabbed her hand and dragged her in when she passed by the


    women''svatory.


    She dared not scream in the cubicle, so she lowered her voice and said, "Benjamin, are you insane?"


    He held her thin waist with one hand, leaned forward, and gently sniffed her slender neck. Then, he


    hoarsely said, "Promise you will not date other men!"


    "We''re divorced!"


    "But I still want you! I want you to be my wife! Madelyn, please give me a chance!"


    Madelyn snapped, "Psycho!"


    ...


    Behind a thin door, Charlotte covered her mouth in disbelief. She could not believe Benjamin was in


    love with Madelyn. He was so noble that she didn''t dare to touch him. So, she had never expected him


    to beg for a woman''s love in such a humble manner.

 Chapter 300 I Miss You Both

    Chapter 300 I Miss You Both


    Chapter 300 I Miss You Both


    The partition in thevatory was thin.


    Benjamin rested his head on Madelyn''s shoulder and hoarsely said, "Madelyn, I don''t know my feelings


    for you. But I feel ufortable when I see you getting along with other men! I''m jealous of Daniel,


    Joseph, and even Jackson!"


    He lightly kissed her hair and said, "I don''t know how to love. Madelyn, Can you please teach me?"


    Madelyn felt a little sad. He had lost his memory. It would be great if Charlotte hadn''t appeared. If he


    had said this to her earlier, she would... She stopped herself from thinking about it because of her


    pride.


    When she lowered her eyes, she looked gentle. Benjamin couldn''t help wanting to kiss her. So, he


    pressed her against the thin door and kissed her deeply.


    But Madelyn did not want it. She struggled but failed to push him away, so she desperately pped


    him.


    Then, they were both stunned.


    When Madelyn leaned against the door, she lumped in her throat. Then, she said in a nasal voice,


    "Benjamin, do you want me to make it clear again? There is no possibility between us! We will never


    get back together!"


    Did he think divorce was a game? Did he think it was fun for her to move out with her children? No, it


    was not fun!


    When she pushed the door open and went out with red eyes, he stood still and stared at her straight


    back. He suddenly realized he might never get back together, although she still loved "Benjamin."


    He quickly caught up with her. There had been a dispute between them, so they did not talk to each


    other after they returned to the ward. Even Vivian noticed something was wrong.


    When Benjamin told Madelyn he would go to pick up Everest in the afternoon, she adopted a cold


    attitude. So, he was frustrated.


    After he left, Vivian softly said, "His attitude is different from before!"


    Madelyn had also noticed it. She knew he liked her and cared for her more than before. But she had


    lost confidence in their marriage and did not want to wait any longer. She thought it would be easier for


    them to separate.


    Vivian respected her choice and didn''t say anything more.


    ...


    Benjamin was in a bad mood after being rejected. So, he lowered his head and lit a cigarette in the car.


    When he was about to start the car, Charlotte walked over and said in a faint voice, "Mr. rk, I''m


    pregnant!"


    Benjamin remained calm, blew out a smoke ring, and coldly said, "I haven''t even touched your hand!"


    Charlotte quickly said, "It''s Mr. Mason''s child!"


    Benjamin immediately thought of the coboration between Madelyn and Jackson. He looked at


    Charlotte''s face and thought Madelyn did hate her!


    Charlotte''s heartbeat quickened when she bit her lower lip and whispered, "If Mrs. rk had not yed


    the trick on me, I wouldn''t have been pregnant with his child. Mr. rk, if I abort the child, can we be


    together? I know you divorced her."


    ...


    Benjamin ran out of patience. Charlotte''s face had reminded him of Eleanor, so he had wanted to help


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    her lead a better life. But he was no longer in love with Eleanor. He had barely thought of her since


    Madelyn had divorced him. When he closed his eyes, his mind was full of Madelyn''s face. He had


    dreamed of her several times. In his dreams, she had softly leaned against his arms and called him by


    his name.


    Benjamin put out the cigarette and said, "Don''t appear in front of me again!"


    When the car window slowly rose, Charlotte tried to stop it. But one of her hands was mped and


    became bruised.


    Benjamin lowered the window, let her retract her hand, and lightly stepped on the elerator.


    Charlotte stood still and finally understood he had only had a trace ofpassion for her from


    beginning to end!


    ...


    When Benjamin picked up Everest, she happily held his hand and said goodbye to Irene.


    As he carried her to the car, she hugged his neck and kissed him. Benjamin''s heart melted when he


    gently asked, "Did you miss me?"


    "Yes!"


    Benjamin kissed her and said, "Don''t hesitate to call me when you miss me. I will appear within 30


    minutes!"


    Everest sat in the child''s chair, raised her head with coffee-colored curly hair, and asked, "Dad, did you


    miss me or my mom?"


    He thought she was smart, rubbed her hair, and said, "I missed you both!"


    On the way to the hospital, he bought her a fried chicken set meal. She was chirping all the way, so his


    mood became better. But when he opened the VIP ward door, his face became gloomy.


    Joseph was inside! He was talking business with Madelyn on the small sofa. And she even smiled at


    him! She looked very pretty when she smiled.


    After Benjamin lightly coughed, Joseph raised his eyes and saw his gloomy face. Then, he


    embarrassedly said, "Ms. Green, that''s all for today!"


    Madelyn nced at Benjamin and sent Joseph out.


    When she returned and closed the ward door, Benjamin couldn''t help asking, "Is it necessary to get so


    close when you talk business?"


    Everest said while eating fried chicken, "Dad is unhappy!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to talk about such things in front of her, so she sat beside her and gave her several


    math problems, ignoring Benjamin.


    He was jealous but had no reason to get angry and dared not ask more questions!


    Late at night, Madelyn hugged Francis on the hospital bed and looked at his pretty face in a daze. He


    resembled Benjamin very much. Especially his eyes. So, she gently touched his face with her slender


    fingers with nostalgia.


    Francis was well-behaved. But he refused to drink milk in the middle of the night. When she pressed


    her face against his, he crawled into her arms and greedily sniffed her breasts through the thin fabric.


    She felt distressed because he had been weaned at two months. Then, she looked at the door to the


    small room where Benjamin and Everest were sleeping. After a moment''s hesitation, she unbuttoned


    her pajamas.


    Francis found the ce and contentedly sucked it. Even if he couldn''t get any milk, he felt satisfied. In


    the dark, the sucking sound was alluring.


    Benjamin didn''t fall asleep, so he heard it. After lying still for a long time, he couldn''t help lightly getting


    up.


    Madelyn turned her back to the door so he could not see her face. He touched Francis''s soft hair and


    asked faintly, "Does it hurt?"


    Madelyn felt embarrassed. After a while, she whispered, "Go back to sleep!"


    Francis will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. And then, he could no longer harass her.


    Looking at her slender back, Benjamin wanted to hug her. But at the thought of her rejection, he


    retracted his hands and walked back to the small bed.


    When Everest quickly crawled over andy in his arms, he felt her little butt was chubby and soft.


    Benjamin couldn''t tell how he felt now. He wanted to be with them every day. Maybe they could have


    more children. After all, Madelyn seemed to like children very much.


    Then, he couldn''t help wondering whether she would change her mind if he regained his memory.

 Chapter 301 Benjamin Starts Pursuing Her!

    Chapter 301 Benjamin Starts Pursuing Her!


    Chapter 301 Benjamin Starts Pursuing Her!


    The next morning, Francis was discharged from the hospital.


    Madelyn personally packed his belongings. She was slightly bending her waist.


    Watching her slender waistline and enticingly curved spine, Benjamin still remembered the sensation of


    touching her.


    The nanny took Francis out, leaving only the two in the ward. Benjamin had some words he wanted to


    say to Madelyn.


    He gently ced his palm on her thin shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Madelyn, if I regain my


    memories, do we still have a chance?"


    After he finished speaking, Madelyn''s body visibly froze. This was a question she couldn''t answer.


    If she said yes, it would undoubtedly give him hope.


    If she said no, it would contradict her inner feelings.


    She remained silent for a long time, and Benjamin knew the answer.


    His palm lightly stroked her shoulder before he softly said, "I''ll arrange for my discharge!"


    Benjamin left.


    Madelyn looked at the things in her hand, lost in thought for a while.


    After returning to the vi, little Francis recovered well.


    The following month, Madelyn devoted much time to caring for the baby, and Joseph and Gloria


    delivered many documents to her vi.


    Benjamin also came often and asionally ran into Joseph.


    He could tell that Joseph admired Madelyn.


    Perhaps due to male pride, he didn''t question it again. He just frequently came to apany Everest


    and Francis.


    He became diligent in visiting, even more so than the time he spent with the children before the


    divorce.


    Madelyn didn''t refuse him from seeing the children, but she didn''t give him any opportunities either!


    He would often give her small gifts whether from a business trip or he coincidentally stumbled upon


    something suitable for her.


    Madelyn locked everything away in the drawer!


    After discussing business matters with Joseph that day, she saw him off and returned to her private


    vi. Benjamin was still sitting on the sofa, flipping through business magazines as if he owned the


    ce.


    Madelyn silently watched him for a few seconds.


    Later, she sat opposite him on the sofa,posed and calmly said, "Youe here every day. Don''t


    you have a personal life?"


    She didn''t mind him spending time with the children, but deep down, she knew it wasn''t normal.


    Benjamin clearly didn''t see himself as an outsider.


    After she asked, Benjamin put down the magazine in his hand and stared at her intently with his dark


    eyes for a long time before casually saying, "What? Do you want a personal life?"


    Madelyn didn''t evade the question. "We''re divorced! We should both have our own lives!"


    She was so frank that he couldn''t get angry!


    It was gettingte, so he left first.


    Madelyn felt a bit weary.


    Late at night, she slowly went upstairs.


    She divorced Benjamin, but because of their two children, he was always present. But it was different


    from before.


    At least there wouldn''t be any more messy things to interfere with her.


    Madelyn entered the master bedroom, undressed, and prepared to take a shower.


    But she found a champagne rose ced next to her pillow.


    It was Ben''s habit. He always picked one in the early morning during his jog and ced it by her side


    so that she would see it when she woke up. The dew on it always reminded her of their passionate


    night.


    Madelyn picked up the rose, feeling a wave of emotions inside her.


    He had clearly forgotten about everything, so what was the point of doing this?


    ...


    With Everest Group''s business running smoothly now, Madelyn felt quite rxed. She had set up an


    indoor golf course on the top floor.


    During her free time, Madelyn would swing a couple of clubs.


    During her break, Gloria approached her and whispered, "Ms. Tanner wants to see you. Will you meet


    her?"


    The famous actress Kaylee?


    Madelyn took a sip of water and smiled faintly, "I thought she never wanted to see me again!"


    Gloria smiled and replied, "For her toe this far, she must be much smarter than those third-rate


    celebrities. She knows when to bend and when to stretch!"


    Madelyn nodded and said, "Let her in!"


    Shortly after, Kaylee arrived.


    She came alone, without her manager, holding a small cake box.


    Madelyn looked at the cake in her hands and smiled lightly, "I don''t invest in the film industry. Ms.


    Tanner, are you offering your hospitality to the wrong person?"


    Kaylee, being sensible, appeared iner today.


    She ced an envelope on the table, saying, "There are five premiere tickets inside. If Ms. Green is


    avable, please join me in supporting the event!"


    Madelyn didn''t directly refuse her.


    She stood up and headed towards the golf course, and Kaylee hesitated for a moment before following


    suit.


    After watching Madelyn swinging a few shots, she eximed, "Ms. Green, you''re really skilled!"


    Madelyn yed with the white golf club and smiled, "It was Ben who taught me my first round of golf!"


    The famous actress felt a bit embarrassed.


    Madelyn took another shot and casually said, "Are you hoping to endorse the high-end project down


    south?"


    The actress couldn''t hide her embarrassment.


    After Madelyn took her shot, she chuckled, "We''ll see if you can live up to expectations! If your box


    office does well, we can talk further!"


    The actress did not expect Madelyn to be so easygoing and was momentarily stunned.


    Madelyn got a hole in three shots.


    She spoke thoughtfully, "There aren''t many people who genuinely bother me, and Ms. Tanner isn''t one


    of them!"


    ...


    Madelyn agreed to Kaylee''s request.


    Unexpectedly, Benjamin found out about this and called her, "Ms. Green, are you being so


    magnanimous?"


    Madelyn became angry upon hearing his words.


    She deliberately retorted, "Kaylee is wealthy and influential. She wouldn''t do anything to jeopardize her


    reputation. Why can''t I work with her?"


    Benjamin lowered his voice, "Madelyn, it makes me feel like you don''t care about me when you act like


    this."


    He had some rumors with Kaylee in the past, after all!


    Surprisingly, Madelyn didn''t care and even wanted to attend the actress''s premiere.


    There was a moment of silence before Madelyn spoke again, "Benjamin, I''ve told you before, we


    should both have our own private lives! What I want is simple: a normal life and the safety of our


    children! I''ve realized that I can easily obtain those things without you."


    After she finished speaking, Benjamin remained silent for a long time.


    Finally, he hung up the phone.


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Madelyn didn''t feel too great either!


    In fact, she had set her sights on Kaylee for that high-end project a long time ago, and as she had said,


    Kaylee needed to prove her market value to get that endorsement.


    Because of this, she and Benjamin broke up.


    In one week, he visited the children twice, but they avoided each other intentionally.


    ...


    Madelyn took the two little ones to the rks'' mansion on Saturday.


    Keh came byst night, saying he wanted to see the kids.


    Alexander suggested they have dinner as a family.


    Madelyn''s car had just arrived.


    Everest went to y with Brianna, while Alexander picked up Francis and happily went on his own way.


    Madelyn went upstairs and met Keh in the hallway on the second floor.


    It was obvious he had spent the night here, with three buttons on his shirt cor unbuttoned and his


    shirttail not tucked into his belt.


    No matter how you look at it, it seems like he had been intimate with a woman!


    Madelyn looked behind him and saw Eloise''s room.


    She then looked at Keh and asked, "Uncle, have you made up with Eloise?"


    Keh''s expression was a bit subtle.


    They hadn''t made up; Eloise came backst night and cried in her room, which clearly indicated that


    she was having trouble with her emotions. He went tofort her.


    In the end, they slept together!


    It had been a long time since Keh had intimate activities with Eloise, and they had countless


    experiences together.


    Last night was inevitably intense!


    Madelyn had guessed what was happening and was about to speak.


    Eloise opened the door and threw out a man''s coat while crying and cursing, "You old bastard!"


    Keh looked embarrassed and smiled wryly.


    Eloise quickly noticed Madelyn. In fact, she was two years older than Madelyn, but she was somewhat


    afraid of her.


    So her voice lowered, her eyes slightly red, and she called, "Madelyn!"

 Chapter 302 You Are Actually Obedient Sometimes

    Chapter 302 You Are Actually Obedient Sometimes


    Chapter 302 You Are Actually Obedient Sometimes


    Madelyn picked up the clothes and handed them to Keh.


    Keh also knew it wasn''t suitable for Eloise if the servants saw him like this.


    He went back to his guest room first.


    Madelyn walked slowly towards Eloise and let out a sigh. "You''re quite famous as a model now. You


    should change your childish temper, or how will you intimidate people outside?"


    Eloise''s eyes were moist.


    She pulled Madelyn into the bedroom.


    Madelyn gently closed the door.


    She was shocked by the scene inside the bedroom; it seemed like a wild fight had urred there.


    The cosmetics on the dressing table were scattered on the floor.


    The bedsheets were crumpled beyond recognition.


    Madelyn said nothing; she opened the window for some fresh air!


    Eloise feared that Madelyn would get angry and whispered, "Don''t be mad!"


    Madelyn felt both angry and amused.


    This was something she shouldn''t interfere with. She vaguely said, "Just think of it as a free service!


    Well, Uncle has a good physique!"


    Eloise''s face turned red.


    She really couldn''t believe how bold Madelyn was!


    Just as she was about to speak, someone stood at the doorway, and nobody knew how much he had


    heard.


    It was Benjamin.


    He had obviously just woken up, wearing afortable casual outfit.


    Madelyn was quite surprised; she had thought he had been staying in an apartment or vi these days,


    but she didn''t expect him to live here still.


    Following her gaze, Benjamin looked at himself.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    He said leisurely, "If I''m living at home, there are people to testify that I am pure as jade!"


    This statement had a teasing undertone!


    Madelyn walked out.


    Eloise''s bedroom was too messy, and she didn''t want Benjamin to see it. After all, he was a man.


    But she had to pay a price. As soon as she went out, he pressed her against the wall. He lowered his


    head and leaned into her neck, his warm breath brushing against her tender earlobe. "Do you want it


    for free?"


    Madelyn pushed her hands against his chest and said with restraint, "Stop harassing me all the time!"


    Benjamin''s gaze was deep.


    He was a normal man; she had brought herself over so early in the morning. He didn''t want to appear


    abnormal!


    But he suppressed his desire.


    His slender fingers gently caressed her red lips as he asked, "Are you nning to attend the premiere?


    Who will you walk the red carpet with?"


    "I haven''t decided yet!"


    "I''ll also go. Will you go with me?"


    ...


    Madelyn turned her face away. "It''s not appropriate!"


    How could divorced couples walk the red carpet together?


    He insisted on knowing her ns, and Madelyn deliberately provoked him. "I''ll go with Joseph!"


    Benjamin was so angry that he nibbled on her neck. "How dare you!"


    Madelyn had nothing to be afraid of!


    Just as she was about to anger him further, she caught sight of Keh. She cleared her throat and


    said, "Let''s discuss it in the study!"


    Benjamin also noticed him.


    He gave a cold smile and said, "You''re quite willing to sacrifice yourself!"


    While saying so, they arrived at the study. Benjamin lit a cigarette and smoked it leisurely.


    Madelyn felt that something was in his mind.


    Now that they were divorced, they had to carefully choose their words when discussing many things,


    unlike before when they could say whatever they wanted. So, she hesitated for a moment before


    asking, "Did Uncle tell you something?"


    Benjamin held the cigarette between his slender fingers, looking casual and pleasing to the eye. After a


    while, he squinted at her and flicked off some ash from the cigarette. "Do you know Stanley?"


    Of course, Madelyn knew Stanley.


    He was Eleanor''s ex-husband.


    Why did Benjamin bring him up?


    In the dim light of the study, Benjamin appeared more handsome. He exhaled smoke slowly, exuding a


    strong masculinity.


    After a while, he spoke, "Uncle came to Gredax this time mainly because of this person!"


    Madelyn''s heart raced. Did he regain memories?


    Benjamin gazed at Madelyn. He knew what she was thinking.


    In fact, he had seen a doctor.


    He couldn''t regain his memories!


    But he didn''t want to tell her these things, to prevent disappointment!


    Benjamin flicked off some ash from the cigarette and said softly, "Recently, there have been several


    idents in the influential circle, simr to my situation! Uncle implies that this matter is likely rted to


    Stanley!"


    But for a moment, they couldn''t catch any evidence.


    Madelyn was originally standing, but he gently pulled her to sit down.


    They were sitting quite close!


    Benjamin spoke softly, "Charlotte followed Stanley! I suspect she became Stanley''s pawn!"


    A man lets his guard down only when he is extremely happy with a woman.


    He said it simply, but Madelyn felt nauseous.


    It seemed like Charlotte had just had a miscarriage less than a month ago, and now she was with


    Stanley, maybe even other men!


    Her face turned pale.


    Benjamin''s voice softened a bit, "So, Madelyn, it doesn''t matter if you attend the premiere, but don''t


    invest in the entertainment industry. It''s tooplicated!"


    Madelyn wasn''t the type to insist on her own way.


    She could somewhat understand his words, so she nodded.


    That soft voice, like a little cat, stirred something in him.


    Benjamin''s gaze deepened slightly, and he smiled lightly, "Actually, sometimes you are quite obedient!"


    Madelyn felt it was too ambiguous.


    She wanted to leave, but he held her back and whispered, "Don''t go! Don''t you want your Uncle to get


    along with Eloise? He has to return to Vadiff this afternoon, and opportunities like this are rare!"


    Madelyn sat back down.


    She couldn''t fully understand Benjamin for a moment, as if he had changed somehow.


    He didn''t do anything, just quietly smoked his cigarette, and the faint smell of nicotine permeated her


    breath everywhere.


    After a long while, Benjamin suddenly spoke, "Madelyn, I envy Keh a bit!"


    At least he didn''t have any missing memories.


    At least he always knew what he wanted.


    But Benjamin had lost the most important part of his memories. Yes, he could still be that carefree


    Benjamin if he wanted to, and countless women would still be willing to pursue him and revolve around


    him.


    But he couldn''t go back to the past!


    He had tasted marriage. He had tasted Madelyn''s vour. How could he let go?


    In fact, he wasn''t feeling good at all.


    Sometimes, he didn''t know who to me!


    The atmosphere was a bit down, and Madelyn wasn''t feeling great either.


    When he talked to her with such a low posture, she always had the illusion that they had gone back to


    the past.


    Going back was easier said than done.


    They had alreadye this far.


    Madelyn looked at Benjamin, her eyes moist, "We''re good like this now!"


    Benjamin rarely pitied women.


    But now Madelyn, who was like this, made his heart softened. He wasn''t a man who couldn''t


    understand feelings. He could tell that Madelyn wanted him but was also afraid!


    He didn''te closer, gently touching her lengthy hair, "I''ll give you back the diary and the recording


    pen!"


    Madelyn was a little stunned.


    Benjamin got up to get them, and in no time, he brought the small box over and put it in her hand.


    Madelyn slightly tilted her head, her lips parted, her appearance pure and innocent.


    He really wanted to kiss her.


    He wanted to lean in and kiss her deeply.


    At this moment, Madelyn must have been obedient. In fact, she could never let go of him in her heart!


    Benjamin leaned closer to her, and she trembled with anxiety.


    For a long time, he didn''t kiss her.


    Madelyn couldn''t bear it anymore.


    He chuckled softly, lightly brushing her tender red lips, "Don''t treat me as a substitute! If you want to


    kiss me, call me Benjamin!"

 Chapter 303 Do You Have Other Men

    Chapter 303 Do You Have Other Men


    Chapter 303 Do You Have Other Men


    Keh pushed open the bedroom door.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Eloise had tidied up the bedroom and even changed the bedsheets.


    The sheets were dirty, and she didn''t have the face to ask the maid to wash them, so she washed them


    herself in the bathroom.


    Keh entered and quietly watched her for a while.


    She wasn''t really good at housework. After scrubbing for a long time, not only did she fail to clean them


    properly, but she also got herself wet.


    "Let me do it," he whispered.


    Eloise''s ears burned, and she didn''t dare to look at him because seeing him reminded her of everything


    that happenedst night.


    Keh held her shoulder and led her aside.


    Eloise didn''t argue with him and quietly washed her hands.


    Although Keh had his status, he had rented a house outside during his college years and was


    capable of doing all the household chores.


    He swiftly washed the bedsheets.


    However, no matter how hard he tried, they couldn''t be restored to their original state after what


    happenedst night. It took him quite some time to finally clean them.


    In the end, the pale pink bedsheets were hung on the balcony to dry.


    After finishing, Keh didn''t leave.


    He leaned against the balcony, lowered his head, lit a cigarette, and his slender eyes stared at the


    delicate color, which in his eyes was as delicate as Eloise.


    Last night was an ident.


    After chatting with Alexander, he originally nned to return to his room and sleep.


    Unexpectedly, Emerson, who rarely showed him affection, was sleeping on his bed, exhaling warm


    breaths.


    This was his and Eloise''s child!


    Keh sat silently by the edge of the bed, watching Emerson in sleep and feeling that this child was


    incredibly lovely.


    Downstairs, the sound of high heels could be heard.


    He shouldn''t have gone out because, at this time, Eloise could only be one person in the house.


    But he couldn''t suppress himself after not seeing her for a long time.


    She was slightly tipsy.


    When she saw him, her watery eyes and the corners of her mouth had a touch of feminine charm but


    also a hint of innocence that Keh couldn''t resist.


    He reached out and supported her, his gaze deep, "Why are you drinking?"


    She was drunk, not avoiding him as usual.


    She just stared straight at him.


    Keh was a normal man. He had been too busy, and it had been long since he had been with a


    woman. Especially considering their rtionship, he felt a stir of emotions.


    However, he still had his sanity and led her into her bedroom.


    Shey back on the soft bed.


    Keh poured her a ss of water and walked over to ce it by the bedside, saying, "Drink some


    water and take off your clothes to sleep!"


    Eloise''s gaze was clear, still fixed.


    After a moment, she turned her face and buried it in the covers, not making a sound.


    But he knew she was crying!


    Keh gently patted her shoulder, his tone a mixture of tenderness and affection, "You went on a


    date, didn''t you? Howe you were bullied?"


    She remained silent, only her thin shoulders trembling more intensely.


    Keh applied a bit of force and gently turned her towards him.


    Indeed, she was crying.


    In fact, she wasn''t that young anymore, but because she was so much younger than him and had the


    temperament of a child, she still looked like the young girl from back then.


    Keh knew he shouldn''t, but he couldn''t help but lower his head.


    Her lips were soft, moist and slightly parted as if waiting for him to kiss. The hot lips pressed tightly


    together. Their bodies intertwined. They constantly exchanged their body heat.


    After a long time, they both couldn''t bear it anymore.


    Underneath the bed, the clothes of the man and the woman were piled up.


    Tears slowly rolled down Eloise''s eyes. She felt somewhat sober but not wholly awake. She lightly


    traced his handsome features with delicate fingers, and her voice sounded hoarse, "Keh, no one


    else can bully me!"


    From beginning to end, it was only him who bullied her!


    She cried like a little girl, longing for his closeness after getting drunk, but she always had a sense of


    grievance.


    Keh''s slender and jade-like fingers caressed her beautiful face.


    He softly coaxed, "Don''t cry, Eloise!"


    He still had some hesitation. After all, it would not be easy to give her up once he took her.


    But she called him Keh.


    She rarely called him that. She called him Uncle Ryan in the past, which made him feel excited and


    stimted.


    But when she called him Keh, he felt like the woman pressing beneath him was a mature woman


    with whom he could have children.


    Keh gently took her.


    She cried intensely, not because it hurt, but because she was sad.


    In the deep darkness of the night, heforted her while slowly losing himself.


    Perhapster, she couldn''t resist calling him "Uncle Ryan", and he couldn''t control himself. Two bodies


    that hadn''t experienced passion in a long time ignited at a touch, and it was unstoppable!


    ...


    When dawn broke, Eloise opened her eyes.


    She saw the handsome person she longed for and resisted lying in her bedroom.


    They had slept together all night.


    She was slightly confused, but he was awake, his hand resting on her waist. "Awake?" he asked.


    Next, he was kicked out of her room.


    He was even disheveled, his belt not even fastened.


    Keh smoked his cigarette slowly as he heard footsteps behind him.


    Eloise''s voice was light. "You''re still not leaving?"


    Keh turned around.


    He wore iron-grey trousers and a simple white shirt, the kind of attire that men of his age liked. But it


    was rare to find someone with Keh''s physique and temperament.


    Keh''s tone was gentle. "Did you enjoy yourselfst night?"


    Her face turned a bit red.


    But she pretended not to care. "It was fine."


    It was fine...


    Keh chewed these words repeatedly, his ck eyes narrowing. He asked a question he should


    have asked in bedst night, straight to the point, "You''ve been on a lot of blind dates this year. Have


    you slept with other men?"


    He asked bluntly.


    In truth, it hadn''t happened, but she didn''t want to admit it to him. It seemed like telling the truth would


    make it seem like she was still waiting for him, so she chose to remain silent.


    Keh took a harsh drag of his cigarette, his narrow eyes staring intently at her.


    Feeling suffocated, she wanted to run.


    Keh pulled her into his embrace with one hand, and with his other hand, he finished and discarded


    the cigarette. Lowering his head, he leaned close to her ear and asked softly, "Are they better than


    me?"


    Eloise felt both embarrassed and angry.


    But Keh felt even worse than her. His grip on her waist tightened.


    One hand had already sneaked under her clothes.


    "Keh!"


    "What are you doing? We can be seen on the balcony!"


    ...


    Keh slowly tormented her, even though sweat beads formed on his forehead. But he persisted in


    tormenting her, wanting her to tell the truth.


    "Tell me, do you have other men?"


    Eloise cried out, her voice trembling, "No! I don''t!"


    After saying it, she felt unbearable, tears welling up in her eyes.


    Keh gently kissed away her tears, turned around, and lightly pressed her, giving her a moment of


    Afterwards, she turned her face away. "Are you satisfied now?"


    Keh didn''t dare linger in tenderness. He had too many things to do but couldn''t bear to let her go.


    Unable to resist, he whispered something vulgar in her ear, "Last night I felt really good!"


    She pushed him away abruptly and hurriedly left.


    Keh''s ck eyes narrowed slightly.


    She always went on blind dates, sometimes apanying people for meals and movies. He was


    jealous, but he couldn''t stop her.


    He wasn''t sure if she would fall for someone one day.


    After all, she had a childish nature.


    He let her be free, but it came with great risk. If she really fell for someone and spent the night with that


    man, Keh thought he would never be able to let go in this lifetime.


    It wasn''t her fault. It was his self-hatred!


    But she didn''t...


    When she said she didn''t, he believed her.


    Keh lit another cigarette, feeling indescribably satisfied as the smoke filled his lungs. This


    psychological satisfaction even made him tremble more than the physical pleasure fromst night.


    They had a rtionship, so it was inevitable that things would be different when they met again.


    The rk family could see it, but they kept it to themselves.


    In the afternoon, Benjamin finished discussing matters with Keh.


    He found Madelyn on the second floor, in the bedroom she used to live in. Although her things were


    gone, the furniture remained.


    Madelyn was sleeping on the couch, with traces of tears at the corners of her eyes.


    The diary slipped from her hand.


    Benjamin picked it up.


    He picked up a nearby nket and gently covered her. With his slender fingers, he wiped away the


    tears from the corners of her eyes. They were icy cold, and he couldn''t help but whisper, "I''m right here.


    Why do you have to reminisce about someone elusive?"


    It had been a long time since he held her.


    He missed her warmth, so hey beside her, gently embracing her.


    Madelyn remained asleep.


    She hadn''t slept well for a long time.


    When she opened her eyes, the darkness had already fallen.


    Sitting up, she saw the nket on her body and Benjamin standing quietly by the door, watching her.


    Did he cover her with the nket?


    Madelyn used her fingers tob through her long hair and said hoarsely, "Thank you!" She didn''t


    want to be alone with him, so she thought of getting up and going downstairs.


    "Uncle has already returned Vadiff," Benjamin said in a t tone.


    By now, it was gettingte.


    Francis was being taken care of by someone, and Everest was happily ying with Emerson.


    And here she was, inside his house. At this moment, Benjamin felt they were not yet divorced.


    She was still his wife.


    Madelyn didn''t want to give him the wrong feeling. She treated him quite coldly, except for matters


    concerning their two children. She didn''t respond to any other emotional issues from him!


    Alexander invited her for dinner.


    Madelyn couldn''t refuse, but after finishing the meal, she took her leave.


    Alexander red at his son. "Ben, you should see them off!"


    Benjamin immediately got up and grabbed the car keys.


    When Madelyn held Francis, he took Francis from her, saying softly, "You hold Everest! This little guy is


    quite heavy!"


    Madelyn didn''t refuse.


    Benjamin took Francis from her arms.


    He brushed against her soft body, intentionally or unintentionally, and he couldn''t help but look at her.


    Madelyn didn''t respond and carefully ced their son in his embrace.


    After they got into the car, Benjamin handed Francis over to Madelyn.


    He watched the rearview mirror and spoke in a low voice, "Buckle up!"


    It was difficult for Madelyn to buckle up when holding the child, so he leaned over to help. The


    atmosphere may have been good. Everest raised her tiny head and said happily, "Next week, our


    kindergarten has an open day, and all the parents have to attend!"


    Although she was young, she knew about divorce.


    But she also felt that Daddy seemed to still like Mommy, and Mommy also spoke softly to Daddy.


    Their divorce didn''t have too much impact on Everest.


    After Everest finished speaking, Benjamin smiled lightly, "I''ll go with Mommy!"


    After he finished speaking, he wasn''t so confident, and he nced at Madelyn.


    Madelyn looked down and didn''t object.


    Benjamin somewhat felt that their reconciliation was very hopeful. Madelyn was just throwing a


    tantrum, and he had nothing to do with Charlotte or any other rumours.


    She had calmed down after all!


    Later, they participated in the kindergarten event together and won first ce.


    Everest held her father''s left hand and her mother''s right hand, extremely happy!


    When they were going back, Everest wasn''t there, and Alexander had taken her away.


    Benjamin stood by the car and couldn''t help but say, "Shall we eat out?"


    He wanted to propose getting back together.


    Madelyn said tly, "The Jones family has a private banquet tonight, and I''ve already agreed. Also...


    Benjamin, please don''t waste your time on me. You should have your own private life."


    Benjamin''s gaze became deep, "You are my private life!"


    Madelyn didn''t want to argue with him, so she got into the ck sedan, and Henry quickly drove away.


    Benjamin took out a box from his pocket.


    Inside was a diamond ring.


    He had it specially customized, bigger and more dazzling than the one on Madelyn''s finger. He wasn''t


    going to give up just because of her refusal. After the banquet, he would go pick her up.


    Late at night, a woman''s heart would always soften.

 Chapter 304 Are You Getting Back at Me

    Chapter 304 Are You Getting Back at Me


    Chapter 304 Are You Getting Back at Me


    The bustling city stood a row of century-old buildings with stylish designs and luxurious decorations.


    Owning such a small mansion was a symbol of status. It was also perfect for Gredax''s elite to host


    private banquets.


    Ordinary people couldn''t enter such private gatherings.


    The newly affluent Jones family of Gredax wanted to establish connections with the rk family. Still,


    Brianna wasn''t enthusiastic about socializing, and Alexander was solely focused on taking care of his


    grandchildren. Therefore, the Jones family set their sights on Madelyn.


    Although Madelyn had divorced Benjamin, everyone in Gredax knew about her importance to


    Alexander.


    Madelyn went back and changed into a different outfit.


    She wore a ck gown with a pce-like style, exuding innocence along with a touch of sensuality.


    Her waist was as slender as a star''s.


    At the private banquet, Madelyn recognized most of the attendees.


    Unexpectedly, the famous actress Kaylee was also present.


    Madelyn nodded to her and then held a cocktail, engaging in conversation with the high societydies.


    She felt quite pleased.


    After her divorce, she had two children to take care of, and it was rare for her to have such a rxing


    time.


    ...


    Outside the mansion, a ck Rolls-Royce Cullinan was parked. Benjamin leaned against the car,


    smoking a cigarette.


    Dressed in all ck, he blended into the darkness of the night.


    Only the gray smoke appeared and disappeared intermittently.


    At midnight, Benjamin extinguished his cigarette and walked towards the mansion. The security guards


    recognized him and knew that he was the person their master wanted to get close to, so they quickly


    let him in.


    Inside, it was opulent and lively.


    There were celebrity models, countless socialites, and renowned violinists.


    The atmosphere was upbeat!


    Benjamin came from a wealthy background. He had attended such private banquets before and had


    long be ustomed to them. However, this didn''t mean that he wasn''t shocked when he saw


    Madelyn.


    She leaned against a deep red sofa, ying poker with a few people.


    Beside her was the recently popr heartthrob.


    The star that ordinary girls looked up to was now looking at his wife with a tender gaze, almost trying to


    please her!


    Madelyn probably won.


    She leaned back on the sofa, smiling yfully.


    The handsome boy handed her a ss of champagne, and Madelyn naturally epted it.


    Benjamin wore ck clothes,


    His expression was darker than his attire!


    So, this was her private life! He had always thought that there were only affairs within and outside of


    marriage in Madelyn''s world, all of which were rted to him in the end!


    After the divorce, she devoted herself to taking care of their children.


    He never expected her to be so carefree!


    It was evident that 24-year-old boys loved her face and figure.


    Mr. rk, the most prestigious figure in Gredax, now seemed like a jealous husband catching his wife


    cheating,pletely out of ce in the surroundings!


    Someone had already greeted him.


    "Mr. rk, are you here to have fun too?"


    Madelyn looked up, her gaze meeting his.


    She was somewhat surprised to see him here.


    Benjamin took off his ck trench coat and casually threw it on the sofa, sitting across from Madelyn.


    He lowered his head and lit a cigarette. "Ms. Green''s private life seems quite exciting!"


    As soon as these words came out, others sensed the tension.


    Mr. rk was clearly jealous, but as someone of his status, he couldn''tpete with an actor and


    could only take it out on his ex-wife.


    Madelyn flicked her hair and smiled faintly, "Not bad!"


    If he wanted to have fun here, she wouldn''t stop him. Since they had divorced, they could be open and


    honest about it.


    They yed a few more rounds.


    Benjamin had average luck, while Madelyn was doing fine. asionally, the young heartthrob would


    It wasn''t until now that he truly understood that Madelyn had divorced him cleanly and thoroughly.


    The bit of nostalgia and reluctance she showed was for "Ben."


    Her usual interactions with him were for the sake of their children.


    In reality, she had no lingering attachment to him!


    Before this, he still thought they could reconcile, but now it seemed it was just his wishful thinking!


    Benjamin could take her away if he wanted, but they were both people of status and couldn''t let others


    They yed until one in the morning before Madelyn seemed ready to leave.


    Henry''s car was not there.


    Madelyn adjusted her coat and watched Benjamin drive the car over. She didn''t refuse and got into his


    car.


    She thought to herself that he must have something to say tonight.


    For sure, he would be angry!


    Despite his anger, Benjamin leaned over to open the car door for her, but his tone was chilly, "Get in!"


    Madelyn sat in the passenger seat.


    She slowly buckled her seatbelt and casually asked, "How did you get here?"


    Benjamin lightly stepped on the gas pedal.


    Instead of driving back to her vi, he drove all the way to the riverbank with the car window open and


    a salty, damp smell slowly seeping in.


    The car suddenly came to a stop.


    Benjamin held onto the steering wheel and looked at the dark night ahead, restraining his emotions as


    he asked, "Madelyn, are you trying to get back at me?"


    Madelyn didn''t say anything.


    He slowly turned around, his eyes a little red. "I''ve never betrayed our marriage!"


    Madelyn opened the car door and got out.


    It was pitch ck outside, with only a faint white glow on the river''s surface.


    It was freezing at night, but Madelyn wanted to take a walk to clear her mind.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Benjamin still sat in the car, watching her back.


    Suddenly, he got out of the car, grabbed her arm from behind, and gently pulled her into his embrace.


    "I''ve never seen you torment me like this before!"


    His lips pressed against her hair, his voice hoarse. "Madelyn, don''t go to these parties alone anymore!


    If you want to have fun, I''ll apany you!"


    He couldn''t stand her being admired by others, always wanting to get intimate with her.


    Madelyn pushed him away gently.


    The night wind tousled her hair, but she didn''t seem to mind. She stood opposite him and said softly,


    "Benjamin, it''s not about whether we love each other. I don''t want to go through the torment of back-


    and-forth anymore! Honestly, I had a good time tonight!"


    His gaze towards her was somewhat unfamiliar.


    Madelyn turned around and looked at the river, "I know what you mean. You want to start over with me,


    but Benjamin, I''m no longer a young girl in my twenties. We got divorced when we had two children.


    We have to be in contact for the sake of our children, but we shouldn''t interfere in each other''s private


    lives."


    Benjamin''s hands were in his pockets.


    There was a diamond ring inside that he had intended to give her.


    His voice was soft, "What if I told you that you need a choice?"


    Madelyn didn''t answer.


    Silence is the cruelest response.


    After a long time, Benjamin smiled lightly, "Madelyn, I was deluding myself these past few days. It''s


    He opened the car door for her on their way back.


    He was courteous and refined.


    During the ride, they didn''t speak, only discussing their children briefly when they got out of the car.


    Madelyn knew they had truly ended!


    The night wind was fierce.


    She stood in the night wind, watching him drive away.


    Later on, he no longer bothered her.


    Even when they met outside, he only nodded at her. They were just like any other divorced couple,


    treating each other politely and nothing more than that except for their children.

 Chapter 305 Are You So Desperate for a Man

    Chapter 305 Are You So Desperate for a Man


    Chapter 305 Are You So Desperate for a Man


    A weekter, Madelyn attended a premiere.


    She didn''t walk the red carpet and went directly into the auditorium from the backstage.


    However, she didn''t expect to encounter an acquaintance, especially someone she didn''t really want to


    see.


    Charlotte was there!


    In such a short time, Charlotte had lost a lot of weight.


    She was only twenty-something years old, but her skin had be somewhat dry and yellowish, a


    weariness that no amount of makeup could hide.


    The light pink dress she wore only entuated her gaunt figure.


    A decent-looking man in his thirties apanied her, but he had a certain greasiness.


    Madelyn frowned, feeling like she had seen him somewhere before.


    Just then, the acimed actress Kaylee rushed over, showing great respect to the man. She constantly


    referred to him as Mr. Richard.


    Upon hearing Mr. Richard, Madelyn remembered him now. This man was Eleanor''s ex-husband.


    As she looked at Charlotte holding his hand, a wave of disgust washed over her.


    Kaylee tried to please both sides, saying, "Stanley, this is Ms. Green from Everest Group."


    The man extended his hand towards Madelyn, acting gentlemanly. "I am Stanley, and I have some


    connections with Ms. Green."


    Madelyn found him repulsive.


    But she knew Keh was investigating this man, so she smiled politely and lightly shook hands with


    him.


    Stanley gazed at Madelyn''s face and praised, "Ms. Green, it''s a shame you''re not a celebrity with your


    look!"


    Turning his head, he lightly pinched Charlotte''s cheek. "She is more beautiful than your sister!"


    He treated Charlotte like an obedient dog. Despite her reluctance, she spoke with a tone of submissive


    agreement. "You''re right!" Stanley patted her and gestured at the man in his forties sitting across from


    them, whom he wanted to cooperate with. Charlotte immediately walked over and linked arms with the


    man, walking away.


    In the entertainment industry, this was not an umon sight. Kaylee didn''t seem bothered by it. As a


    celebrity of her status, she didn''t need to do something like that. At most, she just had to dedicate


    herself to Stanley alone. She tried to appease Stanley with her soft voice.


    Madelyn nced at her and went to the restroom. The sign on the door said ''Cleaning in Progress''.


    The moment she went upstairs, a cleanerined, "Which asshole puts up that sign!" He then


    removed the sign, and Madelyn entered.


    Inside the restroom, intense intimacy between a man and a woman could be heard. Charlotte''s light


    pink dress was lifted to her waist, and she wobbled and trembled as the man enjoyed himself with her.


    Even though Madelyn was used to seeing big scenes, she still found herself shocked. The man


    finished quickly, patted Charlotte''s head, and left."


    Madelyn walked outside, and two bodyguards immediately approached her, "Ms. Green, are you


    alright?"


    Madelyn shook her head.


    At that moment, Charlotte came out, adjusting her clothes. Her face was flushed from the encounter,


    but she looked better than before when she looked like a ghost.


    Charlotte stopped Madelyn, "Can we talk for a minute?"


    The bodyguards intervened, blocking her way.


    Charlotte pursed her lips and stubbornly looked at Madelyn with a jealous expression.


    She was jealous that Madelyn had everything.


    After this incident, Madelyn had no interest in watching the premiere. She walked over to the sink and


    turned on the water.


    "Do you look down on me?" Charlotte asked, taking a thin cigarette from her bag, trembling as she lit it.


    She took a deep drag and looked back at Madelyn with fierceness in her eyes. "Yes, I used to be a bad


    girl. But was that my fault? I was taken to the mountains. Do you know who my first man was? It was


    the old beast who raised me."


    "I finally had a chance to change my fate!" Charlotte continued, "But you ruined everything!"


    ...


    Madelyn smiled calmly, "When you say ''chance'', do you mean using your face to seduce Benjamin,


    destroying his marriage, and bing his mistress?"


    Madelyn couldn''t sympathize with Charlotte.


    Deep down, Charlotte was just like Eleanor. They only felt pity for themselves and didn''t hesitate to hurt


    others.


    Charlotteughed, her eyes slightly moist, "If I didn''t take the thirty thousand, he would have softened


    eventually. But you were so ruthless. If it weren''t for Jackson tempting me, why would I have given


    myself to someone else so easily?"


    She thought she could win Jackson over.


    After all, he was young and rich.


    Madelyn turned off the faucet and smiled lightly.


    "Do you think of yourself as a chaste woman?"


    "Yes! I was intentional!"


    "I will be disgusted by you and your sister for the rest of my life!"


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t want to get involved with Charlotte anymore and walked out of the restroom.


    Outside, Benjamin leaned against the wall, slowly smoking.


    The light shone on his handsome features, making him look refined and attractive, but he had no


    expression.


    Madelyn hesitated for a moment when she saw him there, wanting to say something, but in the end,


    she left without saying a word.


    Charlotte ran after her.


    She saw Benjamin and was stunned, "Mr. rk..."


    Benjamin finished his cigarette slowly.


    His tone was calm and indifferent, "In the future, don''t show up in front of Madelyn. Otherwise, I can''t


    guarantee what might happen to you."


    Charlotte was at a loss.


    Was he protecting Madelyn?


    Weren''t they divorced? Wasn''t their rtionship not goodtely?


    Benjamin put out the cigarette butt and turned to leave.


    Charlotte caught up to him, her voice slightly trembling, "I was under Stanley''s control. I know a lot of


    things. I can try to get the evidence you want!"


    Benjamin frowned.


    Charlotte''s voice became very soft, "Mr. rk, I just want a chance to reform myself. After this is over, I


    will leave Gredax and won''t bother you again!"


    As she spoke, she lifted her skirt lightly.


    On her thin and weak waist were bruises, and there were countless needle marks on her thighs.


    It was terrifying to look at.


    Charlotte trembled, "I thought he would treat me well! But I am no better than an animal in his hands,


    and I will die. Mr. rk, please save me for Eleanor''s sake."


    She took out a photo from her phone.


    It was a photo of 24-year-old Benjamin and 22-year-old Eleanor leaning against a piano.


    They were young and vibrant. Years passed in tranquility!


    Benjamin looked quietly at the photo.


    Even though Eleanor had died, while looking at the photo now, Benjamin didn''t have the wonderful


    feeling of youth but still felt somewhat poignant.


    ...


    Madelyn didn''t watch the movie and went straight back home by car.


    She made a phone call to Keh while in the car.


    To her surprise, Keh was also at Gredax, working on the Stanley case.


    Keh sensed Madelyn''s uneasiness.


    In a low voice, he said, "Stanley is quite lecherous. We have already started arranging people to get


    close to him. Once he takes the bait, we can gather evidence against him and lock him up for life."


    Madelyn felt slightly relieved.


    When she arrived at the vi and got out of the car, Benjamin''s car followed closely behind.


    Madelyn leaned on the car door, looking at him in the darkness.


    After a moment, she spoke softly, "It''s quitete. Try toe during the daytime in the future!"


    Benjamin''s voice carried a hint of exhaustion, "I had some business in Esrand and just got back. I


    wanted to see Everest."


    Madelyn thought about their encounter earlier.


    He just got off the ne and then went to the premiere?


    But now he wanted to see the child, so she couldn''t say anything, "Lower your voice; Everest might be


    asleep!"


    The two of them entered the vi.


    As soon as they walked in, they noticed a piano in the living room. Benjamin looked slightly puzzled.


    He seemed casual about it, "Did you move the piano over here?"


    Madelyn responded with an "Mmm."


    Benjamin walked over and gently caressed the ck and white piano keys, his expression obscure.


    Madelyn quietly watched.


    This piano held too many memories for her and Benjamin, but he didn''t remember. She felt sad and


    said, "I''ll go upstairs first!"


    Just then, her phone rang.


    She answered the call without thinking too much since it was from an unknown number.


    To her surprise, it was Michael, the top star from the private banquet that night. She didn''t know how he


    got a hold of her phone number.


    Michael knew how to flirt and had good boundaries.


    He called Madelyn "Miss" and said he saw her just now, but before he could say anything, she had


    already left.


    Madelyn casually responded with a few words and hung up the phone.


    Just as she hung up, Benjamin grabbed hold of her.


    Her slender body pressed against the piano.


    The piano trembled as if crying out in sorrow.


    Benjamin lowered his head, staring at the woman beneath him, his voice low and dangerous,


    "Madelyn, do you like that kind of little boy?"


    Madelyn felt somewhat indignant, "What''s it to you? Benjamin, let go of me!"


    He didn''t release her.


    He didn''t know why, but he was very angry.


    It hadn''t been long since their divorce, and she...


    Not only did he not let go of her, he used his slender fingers to lightly caress her body, then firmly


    unbuttoned her skirt. "Is Ms. Green so desperate for a man? Can that kind of little boy satisfy you? How


    about we satisfy each other since we''ve done it countless times before? Even if you don''t like me, I


    think you still like this body. What do you think? I don''t mind being the substitute for the former Ben."


    He even whispered maliciously in her ear, "Turn off the lights, and feel free to call me Ben while you


    hold on to me! Imagine me as him, and I believe you''ll soon..."


    He knew he shouldn''t say such things. Her rejectionst time had severely wounded his pride.


    He really dide tonight to see Everest, but when he heard the little boy being attentive to her, he


    became angry.


    "You are just so fond of provoking men, aren''t you?"


    "When you are flirting with men, remember to avoid the presence of children, hmm?"


    ...


    Madelyn felt both embarrassed and angry.


    She dared not scream in case Everest woke up and saw them.


    Benjamin unbuttoned all of her buttons.


    He kissed her chin and coaxed, "How did he used to serve you? Tell me, I won''t do worse than him."


    Although he asked like that, his slender fingers had already slipped under her skirt.


    A faint, fragmented sound escaped from Madelyn''s throat.


    There was arge mirror on the side of the piano, and by simply turning her head, she could see her


    body being twisted and yed with in a distorted angle by him.


    She struggled hard, her brows turning a pale shade of blue.


    Benjamin leaned in and kissed her, his voice hoarse, "Ms. Green, do you want the house servants or


    the bodyguards toe and see you in this state?"


    "Do you want to see yourself in your current state?"


    Madelyn didn''t want to at all!


    He was a bastard, resorting to force when he couldn''t get what he wanted.


    Benjamin lifted her up and carried her in front of the mirror, making her see her wretched appearance.


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    "Look at yourself like this! And you say you don''t want me!"


    "Who else but me could make you look like this?"


    ...


    Madelyn was in disarray.


    She turned her body in his embrace and pressed herself against the mirror. She lifted her slender neck


    and sneered, "I''m sorry, but I''m not that desperate for a man!"

 Chapter 306 Benjamins Cunning Move

    Chapter 306 Benjamin''s Cunning Move


    Chapter 306 Benjamin''s Cunning Move


    The lighting was dim.


    Benjamin''s face was obscured, his impulsiveness getting the better of him just now. He would have


    taken her by now if it weren''t for Madelyn''s intervention.


    But what could he do after taking her body?


    At most, it would be physical satisfaction.


    That was not enough!


    He felt that he wanted more than that!


    Madelyn''s fingers trembled as she fastened her buttons.


    Without looking back, she headed upstairs, stumbling slightly along the way.


    Benjamin didn''t stop her.


    He didn''t go upstairs to check on the children; his mind was in turmoil.


    When he sat in the car, he lit a cigarette.


    A few days ago, he had already decided to give up. Just as Madelyn had suggested, separation may


    be best for both of them.


    But a little boy had broken his defences.


    He felt ufortable about it.


    He dared not imagine what would happen if he really let go of her. Would Madelyn indulge in


    rtionships with those persistent younger boys?


    Benjamin sat in the car, slowly smoking.


    The smoke rose, filling the car and blurring his face.


    He smoked four or five cigarettes before gently pressing the elerator and leaving the vi. The


    bodyguards at the vi entrance saw him, and their expressions were somewhat uneasy.


    Late at night, Benjamin returned to the rks'' mansion.


    Alexander was still awake, clearly waiting for him.


    Benjamin walked in and sat on the sofa, letting out a long sigh.


    Alexander nced at him and said unkindly, "Don''t you have a ce to stay? Do you have to live with


    us old folks?"


    Benjamin narrowed his eyes slightly. "Isn''t Eloise living here too?"


    Alexander sneered. "Can your sister be in the same situation as you?"


    Benjamin smiled.


    His father looked at him and reluctantly said after a while, "Ever since you divorced Madelyn, your


    mother has been crying a lot. You tell me, how useless are you?"


    Benjamin squinted his eyes.


    He was momentarily lost in thought before asking softly, "Dad, do you also hope that we reconcile?"


    Alexander coughed lightly.


    His voice was slow and leisurely, "That''s not what I mean! It doesn''t make much difference whether you


    two reconcile or not. Your mother and I were wondering if you could move out. In this case, maybe


    Madelyn would be willing to move back home."


    Then, they would have grandchildren to take care of!


    Benjamin couldn''t help butugh and cry. "Dad, how could Madelyn possibly move back?"


    Alexander red at him.


    After a while, he got up and walked towards the stairs, shaking his head as he walked. "It''s better for


    you to forget everything and note back home!"


    Benjamin leaned back on the sofa.


    The light was too bright; it felt dazzling, and he covered his eyes.


    When alone, he couldn''t help but think about what happened earlier.


    He and Madelyn were mature adults at a young age with passionate desires. It wasn''tfortable to


    stop halfway.


    He really wanted her!


    But he couldn''t exin clearly what exactly was so good about her.


    He wanted to possess this person!


    Eloise slowly descended the stairs, holding her phone in her hand.


    She wanted to make a call in the yard. Keh had called, and she didn''t dare answer the call upstairs


    for fear of her parents overhearing, so she went downstairs and ran into Benjamin unexpectedly.


    Eloise hung up the phone.


    Sitting beside Benjamin, she anxiously asked, "Are you still thinking about Madelyn?"


    Benjamin reached out and put his arm around Eloise''s shoulder.


    Eloise leaned against his shoulder. It had been long since they had been this close as siblings. She


    was soft and gentle, like when they were children, resting their heads together.


    They stayed like this for a while before Benjamin spoke in a hoarse voice, "Tell me about my past with


    Madelyn!"


    Eloise was a little puzzled. "Why do you want to know this?"


    "Just tell me!"


    Eloise didn''t have many reservations, so she began recounting from the beginning. Luckily, she had a


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    good rtionship with Madelyn, and Madelyn had told her many things.


    Benjamin quietly listened.


    It waste at night and four in the morning.


    Eloise''s mouth grew dry from talking, and she was exhausted. "That''s all!"


    Benjamin patted her head and gently said, "Go to sleep now!"


    Eloise was worried. "Ben, what''s wrong with you today?"


    Benjamin smiled and didn''t say anything.


    He sat downstairs for another half an hour until dawn approached, then walked to his bedroom. Sitting


    at the end of the bed, he opened a notebook.


    Yes, he made a copy of the notebook.


    He looked through the notes left by "Ben" and added what Eloise had said.


    It all connected.


    The next day, at Bravo Legal Firm, Paisley watched as Benjamin signed the documents and was about


    to distribute them when Benjamin stopped her. "Paisley, can you help me find an address?"


    Paisley was surprised. "Mr. rk, are you working overtime?"


    Benjamin adjusted his tie and cleared his throat. "No! It''s about Madelyn''s mother! She''s currently living


    in Gredax, right?"


    Paisley smiled. "I know where her mother lives! I often deliver things to Cam on behalf of Ms. Green!"


    She wrote down the address for Benjamin.


    Benjamin arrived at Cam''s apartment an hourter with his hands packed.


    "Who is it?" Cam came to open the door and froze.


    "Ben!"


    Benjamin smiled lightly and greeted affectionately, "Mom, I came to see you!"


    Cam:...


    Although Benjamin and Madelyn divorced, their past wasplicated, and Cam couldn''t put on a


    cold face. "You cane whenever you want, but why did you buy all these things? I haven''t finished


    eating what Maddie bought for me!"


    But what she really wanted to ask was how they were doing now!


    Benjamin took off his coat and hung it on the rack.


    Naturally, he changed into indoor slippers and crouched down to unpack a package. "It''s not for eating!


    It''s a foot massager. I heard from Paisley that this brand is particrly effective for leg pain. Let me fill it


    with water so you can try it!"


    After Benjamin finished speaking, he went to the bathroom to fill it with water and brought it back.


    Cam was shocked.


    She couldn''t believe that Ben was calling her Mom and giving her a foot massage. It was too much for


    her! She secretly sent a WhatsApp message to Madelyn: "Have you reconciled with Ben? He came to


    see me."


    As soon as she finished sending the message, she saw Benjamin standing at the room doorway.


    Cam smiled ufortably.


    Benjamin smiled and said, "Mom, we haven''t reconciled! I just came today to see you."


    He supported Cam gently and said, "Come and try the water temperature! If it''s not suitable for me,


    I''ll change it."


    Cam was overwhelmed by the gentleness of her ex-son-inw!


    Ben was good-looking, and when he sincerely wanted to please someone, no one could resist him.


    But Cam cared about her daughter. She carefully considered for a while before saying, "Ben, I''m


    happy that you came to see me, but I have to respect Maddie''s opinion of your rtionship with her."


    Benjamin gently massaged her calf and smiled lightly, "Mom, what are you thinking? I just want to talk


    to you and learn about Madelyn''s childhood!"


    Cam''s heart softened.


    She thought of the past and the memories of raising Madelyn with Samuel.


    She was quite moved and spoke more than she intended.


    Benjamin patiently listened all along, andter, he stayed for dinner. When he drove back, it was


    already 9 p.m.


    Just as he got into the car, Madelyn''s call arrived.

 Chapter 307 Have You Regained Your Memories

    Chapter 307 Have You Regained Your Memories


    Chapter 307 Have You Regained Your Memories


    Benjamin gripped the steering wheel with one hand.


    With the phone pressed against his ear, he heard Madelyn''s voice on the other end. "Benjamin, did you


    go to my mother''s ce?"


    "Yes," he replied.


    Surprisingly, his tone was gentle, without a trace of the aggression he had shown the night before.


    After hesitating for a moment, Madelyn decided to rify things. "We''re divorced now, so please don''t


    bother my mother."


    Benjamin chuckled lightly.


    He asked in return, "What? Am I not allowed to visit my former mother-inw after the divorce? I think


    she is happy to see me."


    Being faced with his insolence, Madelyn couldn''t do anything about it.


    After a pause, she spoke softly, "Fine! If it makes you happy!"


    She was about to hang up the phone when Benjamin hurriedly said, "I''m sorry forst night!"


    Madelyn remained silent.


    Benjamin''s voice became even softer and gentler. "I just saw that morningdew piano and got a bit


    carried away. After all, we used to be intimate on it, right?"


    Madelyn''s body trembled.


    He mentioned the past.


    As Benjamin listened to the rapid breathing on the other end of the phone, he couldn''t help but chuckle


    softly. "Forgot that Christmas Eve?"


    Madelyn tightly grasped the tip of her phone, her fingertips turning white from the force.


    Suddenly, she hung up the call.


    ...


    Just as she hung up, the phone rang again. She thought it was Benjamin, and she didn''t want to


    answer.


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    However, the phone kept ringing persistently.


    When she looked at it again, it turned out to be Vivian.


    Madelyn felt apologetic and quickly answered the phone, "Vivian! Sorry!"


    Vivian pretended toin, "What were you doing? You took so long to answer my call! Come out


    for a drink!"


    Madelyn was about to give her a half-year bonus, so she agreed.


    Half an hourter, Madelyn arrived at a well-known bar with Vivian. The ce was great, and Vivian


    had ordered a small room with an incredible view where half of the Gredax skyline could be seen.


    Madelyn handed Vivian a check, much more than Vivian had expected.


    Surprised, Vivian said, "Nics ispetent!"


    Madelyn sipped her cocktail and smiled faintly, "Florence is in charge now, and Nics asionally


    offers guidance."


    Vivian thought of the little wolf dog and felt sorry for him. She then talked about Michael, "He''s pretty


    good, isn''t he? I checked his private life. It''s clean. And his family background is also not bad. Do you


    not want to date him?"


    Madelyn yed with the ss and shook her head gently. She looked at the bustling street outside the


    French window, where neon lights shone, and her eyes slowly became moist.


    Vivian guessed who Madelyn was thinking about and sighed.


    Madelyn only ever liked Benjamin.


    To ease the atmosphere, Vivian joked, "Since you took over Everest Group, I''ve invited you out ten


    times, but you only came out once!"


    Madelyn smiled lightly, "Everest and Francis need to be taken care of."


    "What about the two children when you go on a business trip to the South tomorrow?" Vivian asked.


    "I will send them to the rks'' mansion for a week," she said.


    ...


    Early in the morning, she sent the two children to the rks'' mansion.


    It happened to be Saturday, and when Everest heard they were returning to the rks'' mansion, she


    bounced up happily and put on her prettiest dress.


    She missed her father!


    Madelyn was infected by Everest''s happiness and patted her little head, "When you go there,


    remember to y with Emerson, okay?"


    Everest was already in the back seat, bouncing with excitement.


    They drove to the rks'' mansion in a convoy of several nanny cars and arrived at nine o''clock.


    The rk family was already waiting for them.


    Everest yed with her grandpa for a while before jumping into Benjamin''s arms and asking him to


    carry her.


    Benjamin kissed her and looked at Madelyn.


    Madelyn was dressed casually because she had to go on a business trip. She wore light-colored


    casual pants, a high-necked sweater, and a thin woolen coat over it.


    Benjamin asked carelessly, "What time is your flight?"


    "Eleven o''clock!" Madelyn replied.


    Benjamin''s gaze deepened.


    After a moment, he said, "I''ll take you to the airportter."


    Madelyn saw his intention and refused softly, "No need. Thepany will send a car to pick me up!"


    Benjamin felt a little disappointed.


    Madelyn didn''t want to get too close to him, so she chatted with Brianna for a while. Despite her


    divorce from Benjamin, she maintained a good rtionship with the rk family.


    As she spoke, Benjamin stayed with Everest.


    But his gaze remained fixed on Madelyn.


    Madelyn only stayed for half an hour when the Everest Group''s official car came to pick her up. The


    ck business car pulled over, and Joseph got out and respectfully greeted Alexander.


    Benjamin frowned and asked Madelyn in a low voice, "Is Joseph going too?"


    Madelyn looked at him strangely.


    Joseph is the vice president of Everest Group, so it''s normal for him to go.


    Grinding his white teeth, Benjamin personally escorted Madelyn into the car. He held the door for


    Joseph and said, "Madelyn is weak. Mr. Herman, thank you for taking care of her!"


    Joseph understood the implied message in Benjamin''s words.


    He smiled and replied, "Mr. rk, rest assured. This is within my responsibilities!"


    Not pleased with the response, Benjamin looked deeply at Madelyn.


    Joseph got into the car.


    After the car drove a considerable distance, Joseph couldn''t help but ask, "Are you nning to


    reconcile with him?"


    Madelyn wanted to say no.


    But she understood Joseph''s feelings and didn''t want to hold him back, so she gave a vague "maybe"


    in response.


    Joseph smiled slightly.


    He was a gentle and understanding man.


    ...


    Inside the rks'' mansion, Francis was still young and spent most of his time sleeping, being carried


    to the nursery by the nanny.


    Benjamin yed with Everest, building blocks together.


    Alexander stood nearby and couldn''t help but speak after a while, "Doesn''t it make you ufortable


    seeing them together like that?"


    Benjamin didn''t even lift his head, his voice faint, "It''s just a business trip. Nothing more than that!"


    Alexander said, "I don''t believe you''re not jealous!"


    In the afternoon, Everest needed to take a nap.


    She crawled into Benjamin''s bedroom and nestled on her father''s body, small and soft.


    Her hair was fluffy and adorable.


    Benjamin stroked her little head, soothing her to sleep.


    Around two o''clock, he got up and went downstairs.


    Alexander was drinking coffee and saw his son holding the car keys. He muttered, "Where are you


    going at this hour?"


    Benjamin paused and replied, "To the hospital!"


    He straightened his shirt cor and said, with an air of dignity, "I recently consulted with an expert, and


    after treatment, it seems that I''m starting to remember some things!"


    Alexander widened his eyes and secretly wondered if Ben had regained his memories.


    But looking at his demeanor, he understood what was going on and coldly snorted, "You must be


    desperate! How can youe up with such a terrible idea!"


    ...


    On that same day, Madelyn arrived in the south.


    Perhaps due to the change in environment, Madelyn developed a fever at night. When Everest video-


    called her, she seemed a bit distracted.


    Everest was young.


    She quickly ran back and brought out a stethoscope.


    She wanted to diagnose and treat Madelyn.


    Madelyn looked at that little brown head and felt her heart soften. She missed her a lot.


    She even regretted going on the business trip.


    Benjamin took the phone and looked at Madelyn lying on the white bed in the hotel. Her face had an


    abnormal flush, clearly indicating that she was sick.


    He murmured, "Why does a woman have to push herself so hard?"


    Madelyn didn''t need to put up a front with Everest not around.


    She half-closed her eyes, and her long eyshes trembled slightly. "Benjamin, your words are


    discriminatory against women!"


    Benjamin fell silent for a moment.


    His voice became low and husky. "Madelyn, I''m worried about you! I left Everest Group for you, not


    because I want you to be a powerful woman, but because I want you to have the means to live


    and settle down."


    Madelyn was stunned.


    This was the second time he spoke in ambiguous terms.


    It made her feel like the former Ben had returned!


    She closed her eyes, her breathing bing more intense, and her face reddened even more.


    At that moment, there was a knock on her door on her end, and she could faintly hear Joseph''s voice,


    "Ms. Green, I bought medicine for you."


    Madelyn seemed to awaken from a daze, whispering, "I need to hang up first!"


    The phone screen turned dark.


    Benjamin''s face turned dark, too. How could Joseph enter her hotel room? Where was her secretary?


    Did it have to be him, a rough man, taking care of Madelyn?


    He felt that he had to go!


    Besides, Madelyn seemed seriously ill.


    Benjamin gently touched Everest''s head and said, "Daddy is going to find Mommy. Be a good girl and


    listen to Grandpa!"


    Everest picked up the stethoscope.


    She generously said, "Take this with you to help Mommy get better!"


    She was absolutely adorable. Benjamin held the little one in his arms and gently kissed her, saying,


    "Daddy will not only cure Mommy''s illness but also bring her back."


    Everest clung to his neck and made a sound of agreement.


    Benjamin carried her into Alexander''s room and asked them to take care of Everest while he contacted


    Paisley to arrange a private jet. Alexander took care of his granddaughter while teasing his son,


    "Benjamin, are you going after your ex-wife? What a grand gesture you make!"


    Benjamin whispered, "Madelyn is having trouble adapting and has a fever."


    Alexander also felt sorry for her, saying, "Then go quickly! Your mother and I will take care of Everest


    and Francis!"


    *


    It was three in the morning. Madelyn took her medicine and felt weak, falling into an exhausted sleep.


    The door to her room was knocked on repeatedly. She didn''t have the strength to open it, but the


    annoying knocking continued. In the end, she had to drag herself, swaying on her two legs, to the door.


    She thought it was Joseph, so naturally said, "Joe, I''m fine!"


    Upon hearing Joe, Benjamin squinted his eyes. He quickly assessed her condition.


    She was wearing a loosely hanging white bathrobe, revealing a hint of her figure if noticed closely.


    Was she meeting Joseph like thiste at night?


    Benjamin felt a surge of anger, but the person in front of him was so weak, as if she would copse at


    the slightest touch.


    He reached out, stopped her, lifted her and headed towards the bed.


    Madelyn regained some rity and recognized him.


    Her body sank into the soft bedding, and Benjamin didn''t leave. He held her with one arm while


    removing his jacket with the other, touching his forehead against hers. "You have such a high fever!"


    "Don''t bother!" Madelyn turned away.


    In fact, she knew deep down that it wasn''t just due to the unfamiliar environment.


    It was also because of the previous night when he had pinned her down on the piano and had his way


    with her. She had caught a chill from that encounter.


    The lighting in the room was dim.


    It was truly unbearable for a divorced couple to be in such close proximity. Madelyn pushed him away


    and croaked, "Why are you here?"


    Benjamin gently moved aside.


    He grabbed his phone and dialed a number, saying, "I''m worried about you being so feverish!"


    He was straightforward and unapologetic.


    Madelyn was truly ufortable and closed her eyes.


    Benjamin made the call, saying, "It''s me, Benjamin! My... my wife is feeling unwell due to the change in


    environment. Could you pleasee over?"


    He exchanged a few pleasantries before hanging up.


    Looking at Madelyn again, she had her eyes open, staring at him.


    Perhaps due to her illness, her eyes were watery and tinged with a faint redness.


    Benjamin''s heart softened.


    He sat beside her, ying with her chestnut-colored hair, with a hint of teasing in his voice, as if he


    were bullying a little girl. "Why are you looking at me like that?"


    Madelyn gently closed her eyes and murmured, "It''s just that I feel like even if you''ve lost your


    memories, your way of interacting with people is still the same."


    Benjamin''s gaze deepened.


    He got up to pour her a ss of warm water and casually said, "Do you often reminisce about the


    past?"


    Madelyn didn''t deny it.


    Benjamin helped her up and let her lean against his shoulder, feeding her water.


    She struggled a bit, and he lightly patted her buttocks, saying, "What are you trying to prove? When I


    rescued you from the kidnappers, you had a concussion and were much more obedient back then!"


    "Madelyn, is it because you''re getting older that you''re not as obedient anymore?"


    Madelyn was stunned.


    Kidnappers?


    That was something from several years ago when they had just met.


    Did he regain his memories?


    She looked pale and trembling, staring at him, and the word escaped her lips, "Ben?"


    She wondered if she was delirious.


    Otherwise, how could she feel that he had regained his memories?


    Benjamin gently caressed her face and whispered, "It''s me."


    Madelyn closed her eyes.


    She cried, tears rolling down her cheeks, but she made no sound, silently shedding tears.


    She thought, if this was a dream, let her dreamst longer.


    Benjamin tucked her back into the nkets and held her through the covers, resting his chin on her


    forehead. "Don''t cry, Madelyn. It''s me."


    Madelyn''s slender arms wrapped around his neck.


    She continued to cry silently, like a delicate girl. Benjamin couldn''t help himself. His warm palm slipped


    under the covers, caressing her soft body and making herfortable.


    Madelyn fell ill.


    She could feel it, but the sensation was not intense.


    Benjamin hesitated momentarily before withdrawing his hand, but she grabbed it, her voice trembling


    as she said, "Ben, don''t leave."


    He tightened his grip around her slender waist and leaned in to kiss her.


    The kiss was passionate and intense.


    Even though he knew he was despicable and shameless, he couldn''t care less. She was so vulnerable


    and so uninhibited. He couldn''t help himself from exploring every inch of her body with his hands, as if


    his life depended on it.


    All their previous encounters before he left didn''t evene close to the ecstasy of this moment - the


    entanglement of a man and a woman''s bodies.


    The doctor arrived, lightly knocking on the door.


    Benjamin propped himself up and looked at the person beneath him. Shey there with her eyes gently


    closed as if she were sleeping!


    Benjamin''s Adam''s apple bobbed up and down.


    Just now, he almost took Madelyn, yet she was still ill.


    He straightened out her clothes and opened the door for the doctor.


    The doctor had some familiarity with Benjamin and quickly prescribed medicine for Madelyn, even


    administering an IV drip.


    Finally, the doctor nced at the disheveled bedsheets and softly instructed, "Don''t engage in intimate


    activities for the next three days! After all, she is too weak!"


    Even someone as shameless as Benjamin couldn''t help but blush.


    The doctor left quickly.


    Benjamin closed the door and turned around.


    Madelyn was asleep.


    Shey there quietly as if the unfinished passion from earlier was nothing but an illusion.


    Benjamin''s body was not satisfied.


    But his heart was surprisingly calm.


    He walked over and gently caressed her smooth cheeks, finallynding on her slightly dry lips,


    murmuring, "Good girl! I want to hold you in my hand when you listen to me."


    He found it difficult to define his feelings for Madelyn.


    He wanted to let her go, but he couldn''t.


    Ultimately, he used such an unconventional method to lure her back to his side.

    Chapter 308 I Care About My Wife


    Chapter 308 I Care About My Wife


    Early in the morning, Madelyn woke up.


    She felt like she had just had a dream.


    In her dream, Benjamin had regained his memories and said gently, "Madelyn, I''m back!"


    Madelyn sat up and touched her cold cheeks which were wet with tears.


    At the bedroom door, Benjamin carried breakfast and looked at her with a hoarse voice, "Why are you


    crying?"


    He walked over and ced the breakfast on the bedside table. He touched her forehead and said, "It''s


    not too hot anymore!"


    Madelyn stared straight at him.


    Her nose was slightly red, making her look pitiful, which made the man pity her. Benjamin said in a low


    voice, "Don''t look at me like that. I''m afraid I can''t control myself."


    Madelyn''s lips trembled, but she didn''t have the courage to ask.


    Later, she calmed down a bit and asked, "How did youe here?"


    Benjamin ced a pillow behind her and tried to feed her porridge. Madelyn declined and ate two


    mouthfuls before realizing that she hadn''t brushed her teeth.


    Her expression was a bit cute.


    Benjamin couldn''t help but reach out and lightly pinch her face. "In special circumstances, I can be


    lenient with you!"


    Madelyn shook her head. "I don''t have an appetite."


    She still wanted to ask why he came here.


    Benjamin leaned closer to her, his handsome face very close to hers, so close that their breaths mixed


    together. His dark eyes stared at her with an oddly gentle tone, "Are you doing well after the divorce?


    You''re sick like this, and you''re still carrying everything on your own!"


    Madelyn wanted to move away, but he reached around her from behind and lightly embraced her waist,


    slowly stroking her.


    There was no desire in his touch. He was justforting her.


    Benjamin was good-looking and so gentle with his touches that Madelyn found it hard to resist. But she


    tried to push him away, saying firmly, "I can have other people take care of me."


    "Joseph? Or that Michael who acts like a pretty boy?" Benjamin asked. "Madelyn, do they love you the


    way I do? If they do, why do you reject them?"


    Madelyn was struggling to breathe under his weight.


    She felt nauseous again.


    Benjamin noticed her difort and loosened his grip, giving her water and medicine.


    Madelyn broke into a sweat.


    She remembered that she had an appointment to see a property today.


    Benjamin said softly, "Take care of yourself first. I''ll deal with it in your ce."


    Madelyn was taken aback.


    Just then, Joseph knocked on the door. Benjamin turned to look at her, and Madelyn said, "Don''t open


    the door."


    Benjamin snorted, "Am I not fit to be seen?" Then, he opened the door.


    It was indeed Joseph, holding breakfast in his hands. The atmosphere became a bit tense between


    Benjamin and Joseph, but Joseph quickly smiled and asked, "How''s Ms. Green doing?"


    "She''s fever-free now but still not feeling well," Benjamin stepped back and let Joseph enter. Joseph


    nodded and put down the breakfast.


    He noticed the breakfast on the bedside table, and his gaze dimmed.


    From start to finish, he knew he didn''t stand a chance. Not only did Madelyn reject him tactfully, but


    also Benjamin was the one who discovered him and gave him a chance. Without Benjamin, he wouldn''t


    be where he is today.


    Joseph couldn''t bring himself to do anything too treacherous.


    Later, he and Benjamin discussed the property.


    Madelyn was lying in the inner room, listening quietly.


    Later, she fell asleep. But herst bit of consciousness was that she had somehow regained the feeling


    of having someone to rely on. Just like when she recklessly bumped into Eleanor, she wasn''t fearless,


    and a pair of hands held her, telling her, "Madelyn, don''t be afraid."


    This sense of security, from beginning to end, could only be given by Benjamin, making Madelyn feel


    like she was sinking.


    *


    Madelyn slept in the hotel for a whole day.


    When night fell, fiery clouds appeared in the sky, and the red glow was spectacr.


    She took a shower and felt much lighter.


    The door was pushed open, and Benjamin came in with two bento boxes. Seeing her back turned


    towards him, he asked gently, "Are you feeling better?"


    Madelyn turned to look at him quietly.


    Since his amnesia, they had been together for more than half a year.


    She thought she knew him, but now she needed help understanding him. What was Benjamin thinking


    now? Was he only being nice to her to remarry her?


    And wasst night just a dream?


    Benjamin sensed her struggle and smirked, "You''re the mother of my two children, and I currently have


    no ns to remarry. Is it that strange that I''m treating you well?"


    Madelyn silently walked over to the small dining table and sat down.


    She was a little hungry.


    Benjamin prepared the food, watching her eat with a smile. "You behave so well when you''re hungry.


    But once you''re full, you won''t pay any attention to me, right?"


    Madelyn was impressed with him. Even while eating, he could make such ambiguousments.


    She red at him.


    Benjamin smiled and talked to Madelyn about his thoughts on the property they had seen today. He


    had great vision and was very persuasive when he spoke. Even though Madelyn had achieved some


    sess now, she still couldn''t help but admire his ability.


    Finally, he said thoughtfully, "But the other side also has some dirty secrets, so I suggest that if the


    property costs more than 51 million, it''s not worth buying."


    This number was almost the same as Madelyn''s bottom line.


    She murmured in agreement.


    Benjamin looked at her in her bathrobe. She had a gentle look in her eyes. He couldn''t help but touch


    her chestnut-colored hair and said, "You''re so well-behaved right now, like a little mother."


    Madelyn''s body tensed.


    She looked up at him, but Benjamin remained calm andposed, as if nothing had happened.


    After dinner, he didn''t bother her and even got another suite across from her. Madelyn knew that


    Joseph went to his room to work overtime at night.


    Late at night, Madelyn threw herself onto the soft bed.


    She felt like she was going crazy.


    The next day, she couldn''t help but knock on Benjamin''s bedroom door to ask him.


    The door opened, and Benjamin stood at the door with little expression and clothing.


    He was shirtless, with only a towel wrapped around his waist.


    Water dripped from his hair, rolling down his chiseled face and into the towel around his abdomen,


    finally evaporating in the steam.


    Madelyn''s fair neck moved slightly.


    Benjamin wiped his hair with a towel and casually asked, "Aren''t we going to a dinner party? Why


    aren''t you getting ready?"


    Although he said that, he still stepped aside and let her in.


    Madelyn leaned against the door.


    Benjamin picked up the cigarette box from the end of the bed, took out a cigarette and lit it. Smoke rose


    as he asked in a low voice, "Is there something on your mind?"


    Madelyn hesitated for a long time before softly asking, "Have you regained your memories?"


    Benjamin pinched the butt of the cigarette and took a deep drag, nodding his head, "I remember some


    things."


    Madelyn''s heart beat faster and faster.


    He said he remembered some things.


    She wanted to ask what he remembered, but the words couldn''te out of her mouth. She felt that


    he was pursuing her and treating her as his ex-wife at the same time.


    He knew how to influence people.


    She didn''t say anything, and neither did Benjamin. He just watched her slowly finish smoking a


    cigarette.


    Finally, he walked up to her and whispered, "Let''s take it slow."


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Her lips trembled.


    Benjamin gently touched her lips, "I want you. My body aches with want for you, but I know you hate it!


    I''ll treat you well. Can we take it slow this time?"


    Madelyn looked up, her eyes moist.


    Benjamin gently embraced her.


    He pressed his face against her hair, repeating softly and gently, "I''m sorry, Madelyn! I''m sorry! I


    shouldn''t have forgotten about you."


    She stiffened in his arms but never pushed him away!


    In this lifetime, she was defeated by him.


    In the end, nothing happened!


    There were no intimate actions, just a hug, a long embrace. Madelyn''s voice was nasal when she


    finally spoke, "I''m going to change clothes."


    Benjamin opened the door for her.


    He caught her slender wrist as she walked out and said, "Madelyn!"


    Her eyes grew moist.


    Benjamin''s hand slid down and gently touched the diamond ring on her finger. It was a 52-carat


    diamond ring that he had ced on her at Vadiff.


    Benjamin whispered, "Madelyn, please don''t push me away anymore."


    Madelyn fled in panic.


    Benjamin stood there quietly. He did want to keep her, but besides salvaging their marriage, besides


    his physical desire and possessiveness towards her, there was something else.


    For example, when he touched that diamond ring, Madelyn blushed, her ears turning red, and that


    unintentional shyness stirred his heart and made him jealous of the former Ben.


    ...


    Half an hourter, they left the hotel.


    The CEO of the otherpany was particrly hospitable, unaware of Benjamin and Madelyn''s


    rtionship. He thoughtfully arranged two young and beautiful girls for Joseph and Benjamin.


    They were said to be lively and lovely students from an art school.


    Joseph went along with the flow and had the girl sit beside him.


    Benjamin put his arm around Madelyn''s shoulder and proudly said, "Mr. Kermit, it''s not that I don''t want


    to rx, but my wife has strict control over me. Even on business trips, she keeps a close eye on me!"


    Mr. Kermit was taken aback.


    Then, he punished himself with three drinks to apologize to Madelyn.


    Madelyn didn''t say much, and she just smiled lightly.


    That evening, Benjamin drank quite a lot, and fortunately, they sessfully signed the contract over


    the dinner table. Madelyn was surprised because she had always thought that Benjamin was only


    suitable for the negotiation table.


    Unexpectedly, he also excelled in the art of dining and drinking.


    Joseph also had a few drinks, but his tolerance wasn''t excellent, so he was escorted back to the hotel


    midway.


    After finishing the meal, Benjamin was also almost drunk.


    The driver helped him get into the car, and Madelyn sat beside him, feeling a bit uneasy.


    Benjamin was drunk.


    But he wasn''tpletely wasted. He patted her, saying, "This is how business is done down south,


    especially in real estate development. The contracts won''t be signed if you don''t drink enough!"


    Madelyn turned her head to look at him.


    Even in the dimly lit car, she could still see his slightly flushed face, exuding a sexy charm.


    Madelyn whispered, "Why are you helping me?"


    Silence filled the car for a long time.


    Benjamin covered his face with his arm, closed his eyes, and said softly, "You''re my wife. How can I


    bear to see you drinking so hard for performance? Especially since you''ve just recovered from an


    illness, do you think I''m not concerned about you?"

 Chapter 309 Dont Cry

    Chapter 309 Don''t Cry


    Chapter 309 Don''t Cry


    He spoke with tenderness in his voice.


    Madelyn''s face felt hot. "Don''t say that. I''m not your wife!"


    Inside the car was a faint scent of alcohol emanating from the man.


    Benjamin leaned back in his seat and reached out to gently hold her hand, finding the diamond ring on


    her finger. He whispered, "You''re still wearing the ring. If you''re not my wife, then whose wife are you?"


    Madelyn couldn''t find words to refute him.


    Benjamin turned his head slightly, his gaze gentle.


    When she was well-behaved, she truly appeared soft.


    His voice became hoarse. "Now, consider me considered half of your Ben, okay?"


    Half of Ben? What a shameless person he is!


    Madelyn''s face grew hot, but he leaned closer and rested his entire weight on her shoulders. "Madelyn,


    I don''t believe you''re not moved."


    Madelyn was indeed moved.


    But she always felt that something was off.


    He suddenly remembered something, which caught her off guard.


    Benjamin held her chestnut-colored hair and lightly tilted her neck, kissing her. He was warm and hot,


    with the taste of rich red wine lingering on his lips, mixed with his unique masculine scent.


    Inside the car were sounds of passionate breaths and their tender kisses.


    The driver in front even dared not make a sound.


    After a while, Benjamin released her, only resting his forehead against hers. He looked at her tenderly,


    enjoying her docile obedience.


    Madelyn was trembling uncontrobly.


    She nestled in his arms, and soon, his chest became damp and warm, which was quite ufortable.


    She cried.


    "Benjamin, are you really back?"


    "Do you know how much I missed you!"


    Benjamin whispered gently, "Don''t cry, Madelyn! I will slowly remember everything between us!"


    Suddenly, she reached out and pounded him a few times.


    Even though she felt uneasy, she couldn''t resist this moment with Benjamin.


    They arrived at the hotel.


    He escorted her to her room, both unwilling to say more words as if they hadn''t been intimate for a long


    time.


    As Madelyn swiped her keycard, someone embraced her from behind.


    He caressed her slender waist and leaned on her back, chuckling softly, "You are still working out, huh?


    Your waist is as slim and tight as a young girl''s."


    Madelyn knew what he wanted.


    But it was too sudden. She was afraid that she would face a pair of unfamiliar eyes after a night of


    tenderness.


    Madelyn grabbed his hand. "Didn''t you say we should take it slow?"


    Benjamin let out a grunt.


    He continued to dominate her for a while, his fingers touching her diamond ring. "This time, we''ll have a


    grand wedding."


    Madelyn remained silent.


    They had broken up and reconciled several times and already had two children. Having a wedding


    wasn''t necessary. What mattered was if he really was back.


    Madelyn turned in his embrace. "When we return, I''ll apany you to see a doctor."


    A faint smile yed on Benjamin''s lips.


    But after a while, he lightly touched her waist again. "Alright!"


    They should have gone to their respective rooms, but she couldn''t resist wrapping her arms around his


    waist and leaning gently into his embrace.


    For Madelyn, this embrace had been a long timeing!


    Benjamin lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms.


    His gaze was somewhatplicated.


    Madelyn was so soft and wholeheartedly devoted to him right now. He had everything he had missed at


    the moment. He had her entire person now, and he could enjoy her body tonight if he wanted to.


    But that wasn''t enough.


    He wanted more than just her body.


    He wanted her as a person!


    In the end, he went into her suite. They kissed in the dim room, the air filled with the passion of a man


    and a woman.


    He was so emotional he couldn''t even think straight.

    Finally, they tumbled onto the bedsheets.


    At the crucial moment, the drunk man was unable to perform.


    The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.


    Madelyn turned to the side, her face slightly flushed.


    Benjamin was a little dazed, too. He held her from behind and gently coaxed her, "You drank too much.


    I''ll make you feelfortable next time, okay?"


    Madelyn pulled up the sheet to cover herself.


    Benjaminy t, looking up at the white ceiling above and breathing lightly.


    Although it was because of the drinking, it was still a blow to a man''s ego!


    Madelyn was 30 years old when a woman needed the most!


    Wouldn''t he have wasted these days if she was disappointed in him and refused to reconcile?


    He thought he would definitely let her experience the joy of being a woman tomorrow!


    Early the next morning, Benjamin woke up with a hangover.


    He reached out to the side, and his voice was hoarse as he said, "Madelyn, we..."


    But his hand met space.


    Where was the person on the big bed?


    Madelyn had run away!


    She had left him alone in the hotel bed.


    Benjamin sat up, rubbed his hair, and reluctantly thought she might have left early because she was


    unsatisfied with what happenedst night. He immediately picked up his phone and dialed.


    But she turned off her phone!


    Benjamin fell back onto the bed and made another call to Paisley, asking her to arrange a private jet.


    On the other end, Paisley was a little confused.


    Mr. rk''s tone could have sounded better. Did his pursuit of Madelyn suffer a setback? But she saw


    Brianna wore a happy look yesterday as if there was going to be a happy event in the family!


    In the afternoon, Benjamin returned to Gredax.


    Madelyn avoided him for two days.


    On the third day, he left work early and went directly to Everest Group to confront her.

 Chapter 310 He Loved The Same Person Twice

    Chapter 310 He Loved The Same Person Twice


    Chapter 310 He Loved The Same Person Twice


    At 6 p.m., it was the peak time for employees to leave Everest Group.


    Benjamin stood confidently in the lobby''s centre, hands behind his back. His distinguished presence


    made the female employees blush as they habitually greeted him, "Mr. rk!"


    Benjamin gave a faint smile.


    At that moment, Madelyn emerged from the elevator, apanied by Gloria.


    Seeing Benjamin, Madelyn was momentarily stunned. Not wanting to make a scene, she walked over


    slowly and asked lowly, "Why did youe here?"


    Benjamin focused his gaze on her.


    After a moment, he softly said, "Today is Everest''s birthday. Did you forget it?"


    As he spoke, he took the coat from Gloria''s hand, taking the dominant role, and led Madelyn towards


    the parking lot. Today, he was driving the same Rolls-Royce Cullinan.


    Madelyn sat in the passenger seat and considered for a moment before suggesting, "Let''s have a meal


    with my parents and Eloise!"


    Benjamin fastened his seatbelt slowly.


    "Maybe another day! I promised to make a birthday cake with Everest."


    Madelyn didn''t say anything more. She turned her body slightly and gently brushed her chestnut hair.


    The dress she wore today entuated her fairplexion.


    Benjamin couldn''t help but take a few more nces.


    The car started, but they moved slowly due to rush hour traffic.


    He casually nced at the road ahead and asked, "Why did you leave that day?"


    "I had something to attend to!" Madelyn tried to conceal it to some extent.


    Benjamin chuckled softly.


    After a long pause, shamelessly, he said, "I wanted to make it up to you in the morning, but you had


    already left. Iy in bed feeling ufortable for quite a while."


    Madelyn couldn''t face such a topic.


    Her delicate face had a faint blush, which made her quite attractive.


    During the red light, Benjamin would asionally steal nces at her. He thought that a woman like


    Madelyn must be desired by many men who want to bring her home and marry her.


    ...


    Inside the vi, Cam arrived early and was currently in the kitchen with Everest, kneading dough.


    Being adventurous and naugty, Everest had dough all over her little pretty face.


    Madelyn was pleasantly surprised and went over to hug Cam. "Mom!"


    Cam nced at Benjamin and smiled, saying, "Ben asked someone to pick me up! Today is


    Everest''s birthday. Let''s celebrate it as a family."


    Madelyn understood what she meant.


    She nodded and went upstairs to change into a different outfit before going downstairs to make a cake


    for Everest.


    She was skilled in this area and quickly prepared and ced the batter in the oven. When the cake


    was baked and ready, Everest insisted on decorating it with cream herself.


    Everest drew two adults and three babies on the cake.


    Curiously, Madelyn asked, "Why is there an extra baby?"


    Everest became a bit shy.


    She ran into the living room and jumped into Benjamin''s embrace.


    Benjamin was busy looking after Francis, holding Everest in his arms. "What''s the matter?"


    Everest refused to say.


    However, children are forgetful, and soon Everest held the cake, starting to educate Francis, like how


    he should be loving towards Edward.


    Benjamin felt both amused and exasperated, but simultaneously, he couldn''t help but feel proud as a


    father.


    His Everest was the most adorable baby in the world.


    He looked towards the kitchen, where only Madelyn was left.


    Benjamin walked into the kitchen and casually closed the door behind him. "Where''s Mom?"


    Madelyn was frying steaks and whispered, "I made an extra cake. She went to give it to the neighbour''s


    kids."


    Benjamin found her quite obedient.


    He used not to like this type of woman. But after witnessing Madelyn''s temperament, he grew fond of


    her submissive nature. Coupled with his pent-up desires from the past few days, he wrapped his arms


    around her slender waist and couldn''t help but murmur, "You''re always concerned about others'' meals.


    Why don''t you care about what I want to eat?"


    Madelyn paused for a moment.


    After a brief silence, she gently pushed him away and whispered, "What nonsense are you talking


    about?"


    Benjamin lightly nibbled on the tender flesh of her neck, grinding on that small patch, and


    discontentedly said, "Ms. Green, stop pretending!"


    Ever since they crossed that line between them, Madelyn couldn''t resist him anymore.


    But she always felt it was inappropriate. That''s why she ran away when something almost happened


    between them.


    The kitchen door was pulled open as she was about to say something.


    Cam stood at the doorway, her expression quite meaningful, and it took her a moment to find her


    voice. "Maddie, the steak is burnt!"


    Madelyn''s face flushed as if blood could drip from it.


    Benjamin noticed her embarrassment, took the pan, and quickly washed it.


    He then removed two pieces of Wagyu beef from the refrigerator and handed them to Madelyn, saying


    gently, "I''ll watch you cook! From now on, I''ll make food for you and the kids!"


    Madelyn remained silent and quietly prepared the food.


    Cam left again.


    Benjamin gently embraced her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. He didn''t cross any


    boundaries or make her ufortable; he held her in his arms with a tenderness that conveyed a hint


    of affection.


    After a while, he whispered, "Madelyn, I will be good to you!"


    He didn''t remember everything but liked Madelyn and loved the two children.


    He wanted to invest his heart into their rtionship.


    He wanted to date her!


    Madelyn turned around in his embrace, looking at him with a soft voice. She asked, "Benjamin, do you


    really regain your memories?"


    Benjamin didn''t answer. He leaned in and kissed her.


    After all, there were elders in the house and the two children. They had to keep it a secret, but this


    restrained kiss ignited a stirring feeling.


    It had been a long time since Madelyn felt this way.


    Her lips trembled slightly as she shyly responded to him.


    He was still the same as before, not allowing her to close her eyes, wanting her to watch them kiss and


    to see how he kissed her. They continued kissing for a long time,pletely losing themselves in the


    moment.


    Benjamin pressed his forehead against hers and murmured, "Madelyn, I don''t have any issues with my


    sexual function!"


    He was afraid that she might overthink things.


    Madelyn blushed and pushed him away.


    Benjamin looked at himself, then leaned against the kitchen window and lit a cigarette before saying,


    "I''ll go check on the children!"


    ...


    Madelyn brought the food out.


    Benjamin held Francis and fed him milk.


    "The doctor said he needs to lose weight," Benjamin held his son in his arms, his gaze gentle. "We''ll


    take him for a check-up in a few days."


    Madelyn nodded in response.


    After feeding Francis, Benjamin ced him in the crib and quickly changed his diaper.


    Everest took the heavy diaper from Benjamin, her face wrinkled in distaste.


    "Francis, you sure know how to pee!"


    Madelynughed and nced up, catching Benjamin looking at her. There was a hint of mature rity


    in his dark eyes.


    ...


    After finishing dinner and settling the two children, Madelyn saw Benjamin off.


    Late at night, the two strolled side by side on the vi path. There was a touch of romance in the air.


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin held Madelyn''s hand and softly said, "Everest used to bathe herself. Why did she start


    needing your help again? Madelyn, the kid needs to learn independence."


    He was discussing it with her, and there was no trace of me in his tone, only tenderness, just like


    every husband in the world treats his wife.


    Madelyn was willing to discuss it with him. Leaning against a cherry blossom tree, she spoke softly,


    "Lately, she''s been clingy."


    Benjamin gazed at her.


    The surroundings were dimly lit, making it difficult to see each other clearly.


    But there was a gleam in Madelyn''s eyes.


    Stepping forward, Benjamin gently caressed her face. "Madelyn, is it because of me? Because of my


    absence?"


    A woman taking care of two children and managing apany would never live carefree and happy.


    Madelyn''s lips trembled slightly, but she didn''t say anything in the end. She turned her face to the side


    and said, "You should return now! Drive safely!"


    Benjamin gently embraced her.


    He didn''t speak, just holding her like that.


    At this moment, he wished so much that he could bring happiness to Madelyn!


    After holding each other for a while, he whispered, "Go back now!"


    Madelyn nodded.


    But neither of them moved, and in the end, he couldn''t resist kissing her under the tree. Both of them


    were a bit emotional, and he reached his hand under her skirt, providing her with a fleetingfort.


    The night was intoxicating.


    Benjamin slowly drove away, returning to the rks'' mansion. He sat quietly in the hall, lost in thought.


    He thought about Madelyn''s appearance.


    His mind was full of her.


    Afterwards, he almost went to Madelyn''s ce every night to apany the children.


    asionally, they would share a kiss.


    But he never spent the night there. Madelyn never brought it up, and he didn''t seem eager either. He


    surprisingly enjoyed this gentlepanionship.


    Benjamin cherished this kind of love, but there was also regret. After all, he still hadn''t regained his


    memories.


    He felt indebted to Madelyn.


    Just as his thoughts were in a tangled mess, Keh called.


    Benjamin answered, "Uncle!"


    Keh''s voice sounded profound in the night, "Ben, we have obtained preliminary evidence against


    Stanley. He has been taken into custody, but considering his status, he will be released on bail soon.


    However, we will prosecute him swiftly."


    Benjamin pursed his lips.


    Stanley, using that illegal reagent, had been greedily umting wealth.


    Benjamin was one of the victims, and the man did it to seek revenge against him.


    Keh''s voice grew even more profound, "Don''t worry. He won''t be able to escape legal punishment


    this time!"


    Benjamin grunted in agreement.


    After hanging up the phone, he lightly stepped on the elerator and left Madelyn''s vi.


    As soon as the car drove out of the vi gates and made a turn, a slender figure dashed out in front.


    The ck sports car screeched to a stop.


    Benjamin''s back was covered in cold sweat as he looked up and saw a pale face reflected in the


    headlights.


    It was Charlotte!


    Benjamin''s gaze shifted slightly and fell on her abdomen.


    He could see that her once-t belly had slightly protruded, indicating that she was already two or three


    months pregnant.


    Benjamin opened the car door and got out.


    Charlotte''s face was ashen, and her lips trembled slightly, "Mr. rk, can you please help me? Stanley


    knows I betrayed him, and he will surely take my life! I am pregnant. He has controlled me for a long


    time. I will have to take contraceptive pills. Mr. rk, please help me!"


    "If I lose this child, I will never have the chance to be a mother again!"


    Charlotte slowly knelt down.


    Benjamin lowered his head and lit a cigarette. The smoke rose and dissipated into the night sky.


    His tone was cold, "We had an agreement. I offered you three million dors to help me obtain the


    evidence!"


    "I know!" Charlotte reached out and grabbed his trouser leg, pleading, "But I didn''t expect him to be


    released on bail. He will definitelye after me. Mr. rk, I beg you, help me onest time. I promise


    to stay far away and never appear in front of Madelyn again!"


    She covered her abdomen. "I just want to protect this child!"


    After a pause, Benjamin asked softly, "Whose child is it?"


    Charlotte froze, and it took her a while before she murmured, "I don''t know!"


    There were too many men around her during this period, and she genuinely didn''t know who is the


    child''s father.


    Benjamin looked at her lost expression.


    Her face was so simr to Eleanor''s. Eleanor was always radiant and beautiful, while Charlotte had


    lived in darkness. She was barely in her twenties, but she was already a wreck!


    After finishing his cigarette, Benjamin spoke, "Go to Esrand! Someone will arrange everything for you


    there - the house, the hospital, and the delivery. I have only one requirement - never return to Gredax


    and appear in front of Madelyn "


    Benjamin leaned into the car and handed her a business card belonging to his trusted aide.


    Charlotte''s voice trembled, "I understand! I promise I won''t show up again!"


    Benjamin got back into the car and slowly drove away.


    Behind him, Charlotte clutched the business card tightly, as if she had grasped a lifeline.


    Instead of going home, Benjamin drove to Mount Winneka in Gredax. The urns containing unimed


    ashes or those without family members were kept here.


    Eleanor''s ashes were here.


    It waste at night, and the ce was normally inessible. Benjamin gave the gatekeeper two packs


    of cigarettes.


    He wasn''t here for the first time and quickly found Eleanor''s ashes.


    That radiant and beautiful girl had transformed into a small box in the dim light.


    Benjamin ced a chrysanthemum on top and remained silent for a long time before saying, "I came


    here just to tell you that I''ve fallen in love with Madelyn!"


    He had fallen in love with the same person twice.


    If there were reincarnation, he hoped Eleanor could let go of the past.


    As Benjamin left Mount Winneka, his steps became lighter. He felt that he had finally let go of the past


    and chosen the woman he truly wanted to spend his life with.


    At that moment, he wanted to see Madelyn!


    He drove back to the vi, where Madelyn was fast asleep.


    He had originally wanted to hold her, but in the end, he decided to take a shower first and then join her


    in bed.


    Madelyn was half asleep and half awake.


    She leaned against his chest and softly whispered, "I haven''t permitted you to sleep with me yet!"

 Chapter 311 He Confessed Everything to Madelyn

    Chapter 311 He Confessed Everything to Madelyn


    Chapter 311 He Confessed Everything to Madelyn


    In the darkness, Benjamin towered above, gazing at her.


    Madelyn wanted to move.


    But he quickly held her hand, intertwining their fingers.


    The atmosphere was enchanting, perfect for intimate moments between a husband and wife.


    Benjamin had desires.


    He buried his face in her neck, feeling the gentle throb of his Adam''s apple as he whispered, "Madelyn,


    there''s something I want to tell you!"


    Madelyn responded with a soft murmur.


    Her voice trembled slightly.


    Benjamin shifted his position, lying on his side and embracing her, allowing her to lean against his


    chest.


    They had been through so much together, and he knew that as long as he concealed the truth from her,


    he could easily win both her heart and body.


    But he was afraid of losing Madelyn again.


    In a hoarse voice, he confessed, "Earlier, I met Charlotte."


    Upon hearing Charlotte, Madelyn furrowed her brows.


    Benjamin gently stroked her brow, his deep voice filled with reassurance, "She''s pregnant. I arranged


    for her to go to Esrand. I know this may upset you, but I want to give her a chance. Madelyn, don''t be


    mad at me, okay?"


    He exined Stanley''s situation to her.


    Madelyn leaned lightly against him, remaining silent for a while.


    Benjamin thought she might be mad at him, so he gently caressed her hair, about to say something


    when Madelyn spoke softly, "Okay."


    He hadn''t expected her to be so amodating.


    Madelyn turned andy t on her back, whispering gently, "If she wants to keep the child, it means the


    child is what she loves most. Why should I not be able to ept that?"


    Benjamin watched her calm andposed demeanor and couldn''t help but be moved, wanting to do


    something intimate with her.


    Since pretending to regain his memory, he didn''t dare to touch her for fear of her rejection.


    But now that the conversation had started, he fell into his old habits.


    Gently pressing against her, he kissed her.


    She obediently wrapped her arms around his neck, intertwining with him in affection. Benjamin felt a


    fire burning through his whole body; he thought that he wouldn''t be a man if he didn''t act now.


    In the heat of the moment, Madelyn suddenly said softly, "Benjamin, you haven''t regained your


    memory, have you?"


    Everything came to a sudden halt!


    Benjamin stared at her, feeling somewhat incredulous.


    How did Madelyn know it?


    He had been disguising it welltely.


    Madelyn gathered her sleepwear, turned on a bedsidemp, and yfully kicked him with her leg, "If


    you had regained your memory, you would probably just kill Charlotte straight away!"


    He would never settle her affairs kindly!


    Benjamin:...


    Madelyn then opened the bedside cab and took out a notebook from inside, flipping through pages


    filled with red ink markings, clearly the replica from the rks'' mansion.


    "Benjamin, you''re shameless!"


    Benjamin felt somewhat embarrassed and couldn''te up with a good response.


    He was lying in bed like that, but his wife saw through his lie on the spot.


    And what''s more, he couldn''t decipher Madelyn''s true intentions!


    Madelyn''s face turned red, but she kept calm, saying, "I agree with your arrangement for her. But I will


    take responsibility for arranging the matter of finding a doctor when she goes intobor."


    Of course, she wouldn''t personally appear.


    Charlotte still made her nauseous!


    Benjaminy t on his back, reaching to touch her foot and kissing her. "I''ll do whatever you say."


    Madelyn rubbed her foot against his handsome face.


    Benjamin caught it and threatened in a low voice, "Alright, that''s enough! You are trying to step all over


    me!"


    She rubbed him with her foot again.


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Benjamin had lost all his temper, "Even my wife''s feet smell good!"


    The intimate moment did not continuete at night, and this was the best time to talk. Madelyn leaned


    against his shoulder and whispered, "I wasn''t nning on telling you originally. But you were so honest


    tonight! Benjamin, from now on, let''s not hide anything from each other, okay? Whether you regain your


    memory or not, what does it matter as long as we love each other and are together? In the future, we


    will have more memories together."


    Benjamin gently touched her lips.


    He lowered his head and murmured, "But I still want to ask a question."


    "Hmm?"


    Benjamin held herpletely in his arms, his voice husky and sexy, "How did I use to treat you


    before?"


    Madelyn:...


    A leopard can''t change its spots!


    That night, they talked for a long time, and in the end, Madelyn didn''t know when she fell asleep.


    Early in the morning, Madelyn woke up to find a fresh rose with dewdrops by her pillow.


    She smiled and picked it up, taking a gentle sniff.


    Downstairs, she could hear faint noises and the aroma of food Benjamin was probably making


    breakfast.


    Madelyn got up and picked up the notebook.


    She had realized a long time ago that he hadn''t regained his memory, but she couldn''t resist Benjamin.


    Everest and Francis also needed a father.


    Her phone rang, disying an unfamiliar number. Madelyn recognized it as Charlotte''s and answered


    calmly, "Did he tell you everything?"


    On the other end, Charlotte answered with a soft "Yes."


    After a brief silence, Charlotte lowered her voice and said, "Mrs. rk, I really have feelings for Mr.


    rk, but a man like him could never belong to someone like me! Thank you for being willing to help


    me!"


    Madelyn couldn''t truly let go of her resentment, but if Charlotte had to leave her mark on Benjamin''s


    life, she hoped it would be positive.


    Finally, she said softly, "Someone over there will arrange your affairs!"


    Charlotte held the phone and seemed to be crying.


    Madelyn paused before saying, "I''m not a generous person! But if being generous once can give you a


    chance to start anew, then I''m willing to be generous once."


    She hung up the phone after speaking.


    Madelyn thought she was different from her past self and had gained more control. She didn''t know


    whether Benjamin would hate her for being this way!


    Madelyn lowered her gaze, smiling lightly.

 Chapter 312 How Good Your Man Is

    Chapter 312 How Good Your Man Is


    Chapter 312 How Good Your Man Is


    As soon as Madelyn hung up the phone, she saw Benjamin leaning against the door in the doorway.


    His eyes were gentle.


    Madelyn shook her cell phone lightly. "It was Charlotte. She''s gone to Esrand."


    Benjamin came right up to Madelyn, leaned in, and gave a peck on the tip of her nose.


    "I''ve just fed Francis milk! Francis drinks 240 milliliters of milk, and the doctor said he can get some


    solid foods."


    Madelyn wrapped her arms gently around Benjamin''s neck. "Where''s Everest?"


    "Everest is downstairs having breakfast!"


    With that, Benjamin leaned over and kissed Madelyn. After a long, passionate kiss, he gently took her


    fingertips. "What kind of wedding do you want?"


    Madelynughed. "We''re an old married couple. What''s the point of having a wedding?"


    When Madelyn went to wash up, Benjamin sat at the end of the bed and lit a cigarette with his head


    lowered. He watched quietly as the cigarette burned out.


    It was not like he didn''t sense that something was wrong.


    Madelyn was still a little distant from Benjamin.


    Madelyn hadpromised and made up with him mostly for the sake of Everest and Francis, which


    was understandable.


    But Benjamin was not content.


    He wanted Madelyn to love him and rely on him...


    Madelyn came out of the bathroom after washing up and saw Benjamin smoking a cigarette.


    Madelyn was surprised.


    Benjamin''s dark eyes were fixed on Madelyn and he held out his hand to her. "Come here!"


    Madelyn walked over to him.


    Benjamin held Madelyn close to him, his voice low. "Let''s go on a date tonight. Madelyn, I want you to


    know how good a 34-year-old man can be!"


    Madelyn leaned into Benjamin''s arms, caressing his handsome brows.


    It seemed what had happenedst time hit him pretty hard!


    She said yes. They would go on a date tonight!


    Benjamin whispered in her ear, "I''m going to make you cry tonight!"


    Madelyn, blushing slightly, broke away from Benjamin and walked out of the bedroom.


    Everest, having his meal downstairs, saw her mom and dading downstairs.


    Madelyn and Benjamin walked down the stairs one after the other, but Everest felt that something was


    different between them!


    Everest hugged Benjamin''s leg. "Will Dad live here from now on?"


    Benjamin picked Everest up and gave her a kiss. "Hmm."


    Everest wrapped his arms around Benjamin''s neck.


    Madelyn smiled softly at Everest''s happy face and picked up Francis gently. She thought, "This is


    probably what family is all about."


    Benjamin was good to Madelyn, and was a loyal family man!


    Benjamin reduced his shares in Bravo Legal Firm. He seldom had business dinners now and always


    spent his free time with Madelyn and the kids, taking them on trips. Everest and Francis were thriving.


    Benjamin was the perfect husband in the eyes of outsiders.


    Six monthster, Madelyn gave him back the franchise of Everest Group.


    Madelyn preferred a quiet life to her career, mainly because Everest and Francis needed to be taken


    care of, and no amount of nannies could take the ce of a parent when children were growing up.


    Her decision took many people by surprise.


    Because for thest two years, Madelyn had run Everest Group very well.


    Only Vivian could guess the reason.


    Vivian asked Madelyn to meet her at the cafe where they frequented. When Madelyn came over, Vivian


    had to admit that among those girls who had graduated in the same grade as them, Madelyn had the


    best life.


    Madelyn lived a rich andid-back life and had a daughter and a son.


    Madelyn owned 45% of Everest Group, and Francis was the heir to the rk Group.


    No one had a better life than Madelyn.


    But only Vivian dared to ask, "Madelyn, you reconciled with Benjamin because of Everest and Francis,


    right?"


    Madelyn smiled lightly, "No, we''re doing fine now!"


    Just as Madelyn finished, she stirred her coffee gently, lost in thought.


    Vivian was right...


    Over time, Madelyn got used to Benjamin''spany.


    She almost forgot that he lost part of his memory.


    The most important part of their rtionship was missing... But Madelyn thought that it didn''t affect their


    normal life.


    Benjamin mentioned to her that he wanted to have another child.


    But she didn''t agree.


    Madelyn knew that Benjamin was disappointed, but he didn''t have the heart to say anything!


    It was not that their rtionship was dysfunctional, but Madelyn clearly felt that they were having less


    sex than before, either because Benjamin was busy with work or she had to spend time with her


    children, and sometimes she just slept with Everest.


    Madelyn was quietly lost in thought...


    Vivian gently took Madelyn''s hand and whispered, "Madelyn, do you still love him?"


    Love?


    Of course, Madelyn did love him...


    Madelyn was in a trance. At this time, her cell phone rang. It was Benjamin.


    Benjamin must be on his way home from work because Madelyn could hear the traffic. His voice was


    as soft as ever, "I just got a call from Dad. He said he picked up Everest and Francis. Where are you?


    Shall we go to the concert?"


    Madelyn''s voice was gentle and soft.


    "I''m having coffee with Vivian."


    Benjamin was silent for a moment, and thenughed softly, "It seems you don''t have time for me. Mrs.


    rk, I feel a little sorry for myself!"


    Vivian hurriedly mouthed, "I''m fine with it!"


    But Madelyn felt that she and Vivian had not seen each other for a long time...


    ...


    Madelyn returned to the vi.


    The hall was brightly lit, and the table was set with an exquisite dinner that looked like Benjamin''s


    cooking.


    Benjamin was sitting on the couch, reading a financial report.


    He didn''t look up when he heard footsteps.


    Madelyn took off her coat and sat down next to Benjamin. "Are you upset?"


    Benjamin put down the financial files and pulled her onto hisp, kissing her as he put his hand up her


    skirt and caressed her. His voice was low and muffled, "You''re home sote! Mrs. rk, you''ve


    snubbed me!"


    Benjamin was really busy.


    Benjamin hadn''t made love to her in ten days or so.


    They got along well. Normally, Madelyn rarely turned Benjamin down when he wanted sex.


    But Benjamin was getting carried away and wanted to make love to Madelyn on the couch. Madelyn


    stopped him and whispered, "The maids will see."


    His voice was so husky as his nose lightly touched her face.


    "I gave them the time off! Besides, they''re getting old, so what if they see? It''s normal for couples to


    have sex on the couch once in a while!"


    Madelyn was simply not able to resist Benjamin, who held her close and wouldn''t let go.


    Benjamin was 35, which was a very good age for a man, and of course, he was not gonna settle for


    having sex once.


    Then he carried her upstairs to the bedroom and had sex with her several times until the wee hours of


    the morning...


    It was midnight.


    Madelyn fell asleep, exhausted.


    Having sex was extremely wearing on the body. Benjamin should have been exhausted, but he had


    insomnia.


    When he closed his eyes, he couldn''t stop thinking about the past video about Madelyn.


    It wasn''t that he was a very sexual person and had to have Madelyn do that, but he just... Over time, he


    could feel that Madelyn had reservations about her feelings for him.


    At first, she forgave him easily.


    They remarried without having a wedding and lived in harmony.


    Yes, in harmony.


    It was not like that Benjamin felt bad about this kind of life. At least he knew that 90 percent of couples


    under the sun lived this way, raising their children together and having sex asionally after work to


    burn off their bodies'' excess energy.


    But the more harmonious life became, the much emptier Benjamin was!


    He couldn''t figure out if Madelyn still loved him!


    Benjamin didn''t verbally express love often, but he brought Madelyn gifts on her birthday, Valentine''s


    Day, and the children''s birthdays, which showed Madelyn that he loved her.


    But he rarely said he loved her, barely ever...


    Benjamin wanted to smoke a cigarette, but he knew Madelyn didn''t like secondhand smoke, so he


    resisted the urge.


    Hey down, his face to her back, and stroked her body gently.


    After a while, his sexual desire was aroused, and he simply made love with her again.


    Madelyn didn''t wake up...


    Madelyn was up early the next morning.


    The couch was a mess. She put away Benjamin''s clothes and hers.


    Madelyn felt ashamed and didn''t want the servants to talk about this in private.


    Benjamin went downstairs while wearing a tie, looked at the clean sofa, and smiled. "The maids will not


    say anything if they see it! You''re over 30. Howe you''re as shy as a little girl?"


    Madelyn set up breakfast for Benjamin.


    She lowered her eyebrows and looked gentle and quiet...


    Benjamin took her in his arms and kissed her gently, then whispered, "There''s a delivery for you on the


    coffee table."


    As he finished, he sat down quite calmly and drank his coffee.


    Madelyn nced at the delivery.


    It was from Esrand, and there was only one picture of Charlotte in it.


    In the photo, Charlotte was standing next to the bookshelf in the library with her big baby bump. She


    was eight months pregnant.


    The background of the photo was a vige primary school.


    Madelyn turned to the back of the photo. It was a letter written to her by Charlotte.


    [Mrs. rk, thank you for getting me this job. I love it. Maybe I was born to belong in a ce like this.


    I''m d that my life is a lot calmer than it used to be. Besides, I have found someone. He is an honest


    man and a teacher in this school and is willing to be the father of the child. We have got our marriage


    license.]


    [I really thank you for giving me a chance.]


    [Mrs. rk, there is one thing you may not know. When Mr. rk agreed to help me, I thought that I


    could use the child to gain Mr. rk''s sympathy or jeopardize your rtionship. But when Mr. rk''s


    assistant told me that you had agreed to help me, take me in, and give me the best medical care... I


    wept like a child that day. I felt like a clown.]


    [Goodbye! You take care of yourself! I wish you every happiness!]


    ...


    Madelyn read it over and over again.


    Her heart was heavy. She had made love to Benjamin a couple of timesst night, but it wasn''t enough


    to take the edge off her heavy heart.


    She gently put the picture down.


    Benjamin guessed. "Did she send this?"


    Madelyn merely said, "Hmm."


    She put the picture back in the envelope and put it away carefully.


    After a while, she said, "Charlotte got married."


    Benjamin was quite surprised. He hadn''t been in touch with Charlotte, so he didn''t know about it. When


    he saw Madelyn''s eyes were red, he tried to make herugh. "That''s why I say a woman''s appearance


    is of great use. Charlotte has found a husband even if she''s pregnant!"


    Madelyn looked at Benjamin askance.


    Madelyn was depressed. After all, when she thought of Charlotte, she couldn''t help but keep seeing


    Eleanor in her head.


    Both of them had crossed paths with her a lot.


    Madelyn thought Charlotte was different from Eleanor. The main reason Madelyn was willing to spare


    Charlotte was that aside from one time she tried to impress Benjamin and thereby freaked out Everest,


    Charlotte never really hurt her.


    Madelyn whispered, "I still dislike her!"


    Benjamin came over and put his arms around Madelyn gently.


    He didn''t mention Charlotte again, just gently hugged Madelyn and asked very softly, "What about me?


    Madelyn, do you still like me?"


    Madelyn gently wrapped her arms around his waist...


    She sighed softly, "Yes!"


    Benjamin reached out and stroked her long teal hair. "Alright, you need to stop crying! After breakfast,


    we''re going to take Everest to school!"


    On the way to take Everest to school, Madelyn suddenly said, "Will you make it to the Founders'' Day of


    my school next week?"


    Benjamin was driving with one hand on the wheel.


    He took her hand gently. "Anytime, Mrs. rk!"


    He would like to reserve every minute of the rest of his life for Madelyn.


    He would always wait for her to say she loved him!


    ...


    The golden Bentley Continental GT slowly pulled into the rks'' mansion, and as soon as Benjamin


    got out of the car, he sensed that something was wrong.


    Benjamin closed the car door and walked into the hall.


    Inside the hall, several men in uniform were about to ask questions.


    "Dad, what''s wrong?" Benjamin frowned.


    Alexander sat decadently down on the couch and said softly, "Eloise has been kidnapped!"


    Benjamin was stunned.


    A myriad of possibilities shed into Benjamin''s mind, and finally, heughed softly and said, "Maybe


    Eloise had a little to drink and is having fun somewhere. What do you think the kidnapper gains by


    kidnapping such a stupid person as her?"


    Brianna had her face in her hands and cried.


    Alexander red angrily at Benjamin. "How could you say that?"


    A couple of uniformed men couldn''t help butugh, and shook Benjamin''s hand. "Mr. rk, we''ll let you


    know as soon as we have a lead."


    Benjamin nodded faintly. "Thank you very much!"


    After seeing them off, Benjamin sat down on the sofa, nced at Madelyn who had followed him in,


    and asked slowly, "Madelyn, what kind of person do you think would kidnap Eloise? Did the kidnapper


    do it for money or for sex?"


    Madelyn didn''t know how to answer that.


    Obviously, he guessed who it was, but still asked her!Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.

    Chapter 313 This Is Uncle Ryan (1)


    The lights were dim in the luxurious bedroom.


    Eloisey on the soft bed, unable to move.


    She smelled the refreshing shaving liquid that the man sleeping next to her frequently used.


    This was the third time Eloise had been kidnapped this month.


    Each time Keh kidnapped Eloise here, blindfolded her, gently tied her wrists with a tie, and let her


    sleep with him...


    But he had never made love to her!


    Keh would just cuddle Eloise at night and caress her body when he was feeling up to it.


    ...


    There were tiny footsteps at the bedroom door, and then the bed sagged deep beside her... His warm


    fingers stroked her cheek gently.


    Eloise was gorgeous and luminous. Every part of her body was so beautiful.


    Finally, Keh stopped touching Eloise, looking at her covetously...


    Eloise didn''t struggle. The tie that covered her eyes was slowly wet with tears. She whimpered,


    "Keh, aren''t you going to marry? Why do you keep bringing me here?"


    "Do you want to make me your mistress?"


    Keh was slightly stunned. Eloise knew it was him!


    Eloise sobbed quietly. How could she not know it was Keh? She would know his scent anywhere!


    It was presumably a wrench for him to tie her tightly. She struggled so hard that she managed to break


    her bonds.


    Eloise opened her eyes and looked Keh in the eye.


    Her chest heaved violently.


    Eloise''s lips quivered lightly as she stared at Keh she had loved for years. "Mr. Ryan, it''s true that


    I''m not very smart, but you can''t keep ying me for a fool! I could never be your mistress!"


    Over six months ago, she had some drinks.


    That night, they had a night of crazy sex...


    Then when he came to Gredax again, they asionally slept together overnight. After all, he didn''t


    have a woman around, and they had a child. Besides, he told her to wait for him for two years.


    She had been filled with joy as she thought they would get married.


    But Keh was getting married. Mr. Ryan''s wedding was announced with great fanfare in the


    newspapers, but the bride was not her.


    Even so, Keh was going to sleep with her...


    Keh looked into Eloise''s tearful eyes, pulled a cigarette from the holder, and lit it irritably.


    He wanted to tell Eloise to wait another six months.


    Keh wanted to say that his wedding announcement was a lie, but how precious were two years of


    a woman''s youth! Was she gonna have another six months like this...


    Keh''s Adam''s apples moved up and down.


    Finally, he whispered and sighed softly, "Eloise, I''m sorry!"


    Keh gently reached out to pull Eloise into her arms.


    She didn''t want him to touch her, staring at him stubbornly, her eyes red.


    Keh did know that Eloise loved him.


    Her love was a mixture of fondness, infatuation, admiration, and their countless memories of sex.


    Keh gently touched Eloise''s head. His voice was husky and gentle, "I''ve made breakfast. Go wash


    your face. Kaleb will send you back home!"


    Keh''s tone sounded like a lover, but also like a loving father.


    With that, he walked out of the bedroom.


    He walked quickly as if he was afraid that something would catch up with him, or he would regret it the


    next second.


    Keh walked out of the bedroom and stood in the aisle.


    Keh punched the wall so hard that blood stained the white walls.


    He had too many inhibitions in his life.


    What kind of man was he if he couldn''t be with the woman he loved?


    Keh thought he could move on, so he broke up with Eloise a few years ago. When he met Eloise


    again, Keh realized he had a son. He thought it would only be two years before he could drop


    everything to take care of them.


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    But Keh went back on his word...


    In the bedroom bathroom, Eloise crouched next to the toilet, quietly crying.


    Eloise knew it wouldn''t help.


    But she couldn''t help herself. She could only cry like this because she had to pretend she didn''t give a


    crap about Keh when she got back home.


    Eloise had to be a good daughter.


    Also, she had to be a good mom to Emerson.


    She was the morous A-list model on the outside...


    Eloise thought to herself, "You can''t cry anymore when you walk out of this house."


    In a trance, Eloise fumbled for a pack of cigarettes, presumably left behind by Keh, who usually


    smoked here. She gently lit a cigarette, and her thoughts drifted back to when she first met Keh.


    At that time, Eloise was still young and unsophisticated.


    But he was respected and admired by millions.


    Eloise would always remember the evening when eight Audis with impressive license tes suddenly


    arrived at the rks'' mansion, and a dozen bodyguards dressed all in ck escorted the noble man


    into her world.


    Keh stood in the hall of the rks'' mansion, so poised and graceful.


    That day, Eloise heard that he was Keh, Mr. Ryan of Vadiff.


    He was also Madelyn''s uncle.


    Eloise gracefully came down from the stairs. When Alexander asked her to greet Keh, she looked


    at Keh''s young and good-looking face and muttered in her mind, "He looks only 30-something, but


    why should I call him Uncle Ryan?"


    But Alexander and Benjamin seemed to be afraid of Keh.


    Eloise thought to herself, "If I''m nice and obedient, will Keh stop messing with Benjamin and agree


    to let Madelyn and Benjamin be together?"


    Eloise was wearing a white dress that day.


    And it was a nightgown...


    She looked down and called out softly, "Uncle Ryan!"


    At that moment, Keh turned around.


    When she saw Keh''s face, Eloise admitted that her heart was beating a little fast. She had never


    imagined that Madelyn would have such a good-looking and powerful uncle. Keh responded to


    Eloise carelessly and went back to talking to Alexander.


    Eloise had never seen anyone talk to Alexander with such ease.


    Later, Uncle Ryan left.


    Alexander said that Keh was a cagey man, but Benjamin didn''t say anything. Eloise thought that


    Alexander was wrong. Uncle Ryan was very gentle and spoke in a polite, refined manner.


    Eloise thought, "How can anyone in the world be so good-looking and make me feel so good?"


    She thought she liked Uncle Ryan...

    Chapter 314 This Is Uncle Ryan (2)


    Chapter 314 This Is Uncle Ryan (2)


    Eloise couldn''t have imagined that she would meet Keh so soon.


    And it was such an unusual scene.


    ...


    The next day, Eloise had coffee with Chloe.


    The caf¨¦ was on the first floor of a five-star hotel with a very nice ambiance.


    Across from Eloise sat her childhood friend Chloe, who asked, "Are you alright? He is a cheating,


    womanizing asshole, but you took three sleeping pills for him. Is he worth it?"


    Eloise said quietly, "I had no idea that he had been in a rtionship with Madelyn and was aplete


    cheating womanizer. I want to kill him when I think of him cheating on Madelyn for years!"


    Eloise sniffled. "Fortunately, Madelyn hasn''t had intercourse with him!"


    Chloe found it funny andughed.


    Eloise was silly.


    As Eloise and Chloe were roasting a scum, they didn''t realize that several decent people sat two tables


    away, including Keh and Kaleb, along with two or three members of their entourage.


    Kaleb spotted them first.


    Kaleb lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Ryan, it''s Ms. rk."


    Keh leisurely sipped the coffee.


    Keh spotted them early and heard their conversation... He thought, "Heh, what a little twit!"


    Keh was busy and there was always an ample amount of women around.


    He had no intention of consorting with Eloise. He made a gesture to get up from his seat, and his


    attendants rose to their feet first with upational trepidation...


    "Eloise!"


    A good-looking man appeared out of nowhere and gently sped Eloise''s wrist.


    It was Daniel.


    When Daniel''s affair with his mistress came to light, Eloise didn''t answer his calls or listen to his


    exnations.


    Eloise took the pills.


    He hadn''t seen her until now...


    Eloise shook off his hand, her delicate face giving a grimace of pain. "You''re hurting me!"


    Daniel was trying to get Eloise back.


    His mistress was an obedient and well-behaved girl, but Daniel was just having a little fun to pass the


    time. Eloise,ing from a distinguished family and being simple, was the ideal wife for him.


    Daniel dropped the attitude. "Let''s talk this out!"


    Chloe, Eloise''s childhood friend, couldn''t help saying, "What''s there to talk about, Daniel? It''s true that


    you keep a mistress, right? It hase to light now. You think Eloise''s a pushover and that she will not


    settle the score with you?"


    In the elegant caf¨¦.


    Chloe gave Daniel the finger!


    Keh was about to leave, but sat down again, watched with amusement as they quarreled. Then he


    said to Kaleb, "Look at the young people nowadays!"


    Kaleb was so good at pleasing Keh.


    He pretended to be upset. "You''re only in your early 40s. You''re still young!"


    Keh smiled.


    At this point, they probably had some discrepancies and had an argument. Finally, there was a little


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    physical altercation between them.


    Eloise was not hurt, but her handbag, which had been put on the chair, was knocked to the floor. The


    contents of the handbag fell all over the floor.


    There were seven or eight lipsticks, and several cute little pendants, of which amb pendant was the


    cutest.


    The point was there was a tiny baby bottle.


    For a while, things became very intriguing.


    Keh was surprised.


    He knew Eloise was a couple of years older than Madelyn, but howe she took a baby bottle and


    dolls with her?


    Was she not weaned?


    Kaleb caught a faint smile on the face of Keh, who had not smiled much for years. Keh was


    clearly in a good mood now.


    Eloise''s eyes were wet with tears.


    Feeling humiliated, she bit her lip, "Daniel, we have called off our engagement!"


    Daniel was about to speak...


    Keh spoke up, "I want you to pick her stuff up!"


    A little girl''s bottle was not something to be trifled with.


    Kaleb smiled and said yes, and then he patiently picked her things up, zipped her handbag up


    thoughtfully, and put it back where it was...


    Eloise stared at Keh, stupefied.


    Eloise''s childhood friend, Chloe, was also dumbfounded, wondering, "Who is this? He looks so


    dignified and has a different temperament from the others."


    His skin was pale and gentle, but there was a smothering aura all over him.


    After a long time, Eloise said, "Uncle Ryan!"


    Keh sat in the crowd...


    He hadn''t meant to get up, but when she called him Uncle Ryan, somehow he did, and walked over to


    her, who tilted her head slightly with her bright eyes glistening with tears.


    She helplessly looked at Keh like an unimed puppy!


    Keh got the idea to pet the puppy''s head, but he resisted the impulse, asking in a t tone, "You''re


    up there on your feet today?"


    Eloise made a little sound in her throat.


    She was still looking straight at him.


    Chloe was about to pass out, thinking in her mind, "This guy is super nice, but Eloise, could you be a


    little more reserved and restrain yourself?"


    But Keh didn''t care.


    It had been a long time since he had seen a look so pure as that of a little rabbit.


    Her body was like a rabbit, too.


    Eloise was quite tall, and her body was soft.


    Just as Eloise and Keh locked eyes, Daniel felt the pressure from Keh in front of him and


    couldn''t help but ask Eloise, "Who is he? Your new love? Eloise, I thought you killed yourself taking


    pills for me?"


    Daniel was embarrassed and pissed off.


    Daniel was proud and totally took control of his rtionship with Eloise. He knew Eloise loved him and


    was subservient to his every wish, so he didn''t think he had done anything wrong when it came to light


    that he kept a mistress.


    Daniel nned to break up with his mistress and get Eloise back.


    He never imagined that Eloise would look at another guy with infatuated eyes one day.


    It was infatuation!


    Keh didn''t even speak to Daniel. In his eyes, Daniel was just a cheating phnderer like William!


    Keh gently raised his hand and said, "Please take him away!"


    Daniel was dumbfounded.


    In an instant, eight tall and strong bodyguards d in ck appeared, all wearing wireless


    headphones, and looking very professional. The one in the lead said, "Mr. Ryan asks you to get out of


    here!"


    Mr. Ryan...


    With his eyes fixed on Keh, Daniel wasn''t sure who he really was but thought he looked familiar.


    Daniel was smart, dusted the dirt off his suit, and said to Eloise, "We''ll talk about it some other time!"


    Eloise turned her face away.


    She would never talk to him about it again. What was there to talk about? She had decided to move on.


    But her eyes turned red.


    After all, she used to have a crush on Daniel...


    Keh looked at Eloise''s reddened eyes, smiled, and prepared to leave.


    She tugged at the sleeve of his suit.


    Eloise helplessly looked at Keh and said, "Uncle Ryan, I have something to tell you. Shall I invite


    you to dinner?"


    Keh frowned slightly.


    Actually, he didn''t have time. He was going to meet a few peopleter.


    However, probably because he had been lonely for quite a long time, when such a lovely girl begged


    him, he didn''t refuse her and told her, "Let''s go!"


    With that, he walked out of the cafe.


    A dozen or so attendants and bodyguards followed Keh in an imposing manner, while he was


    dressed in casual clothes, seemingly understated. His skin was very pale, and his features were


    exceptionally delicate and gorgeous, but people with discerning eyes could tell at a nce that he was


    a big shot.


    Eloise took her handbag and prepared to follow him out.


    Chloe pulled her back. "Are you crazy? How dare you mess with that kind of person?"


    Eloise licked her lips. "He''s Madelyn''s uncle! He''s Mr. Ryan from Vadiff, the one who''s always in the


    news... Keh."


    With that, Eloise ran off.


    Chloe was dumbfounded.


    Mr. Ryan from Vadiff was one of the big shots in the South. He had the most advanced technology in


    the country and was a very powerful man.


    Chloe actually had the honor of meeting him in person!

 Chapter 315 This Is Uncle Ryan (3)

    Chapter 315 This Is Uncle Ryan (3)


    Chapter 315 This Is Uncle Ryan (3)


    In the elevator, several bodyguards stood around Keh.


    Eloise was pushed to the side of the elevator. She was delicate and needed special care and


    protection. She just took three sleeping pills and had her stomach pumped, looking quite vulnerable.


    She tried to squeeze through the crowd and step to Keh''s side.


    The bodyguards, all looking fierce, stopped her, and she was aggravated.


    Kalebughed as he watched this.


    Keh spoke up, "Let her through!"


    The bodyguards made way for Eloise, who then pushed her way to Keh, and made a face at the


    bodyguards, looking adorable...


    Keh couldn''t help but think of the little bottle in her handbag again.


    Heughed very softly.


    The exhaustion he had been feeling was surprisingly mitigated. He wondered if this was the magic of a


    young girl, which was able to rx the mind and body!


    The hotel suite Keh stayed in was huge, about 300 square meters.


    And there was even a small gym.


    He was quite busy. He entered his room and ordered dinner. Then Kaleb went to set it up.


    In less than half an hour, sumptuous food was pushed in by the chef. Keh was still looking at the


    document without lifting his head, and only said coldly, "Young girls nowadays love spicy food. Is that


    okay with you?"


    Eloise quickly nodded. "Yes, yes, yes!"


    How could she dare to say no?


    The three of them had dinner together. It was obvious that Kaleb was Keh''s right-hand man, and


    he was very good at livening things up during the meal, making a few witty remarks from time to time.


    Eloise couldn''t stand spicy food.


    After taking a few bites of the dish, Eloise felt her mouth was on fire, her eyes reddening even more.


    She poked the boiled fish fillets in her bowl and couldn''t help but whisper disapprovingly, "Why do we


    have to eat in a hotel suite? It takes ages for this spicy vor to dissipate, doesn''t it?"


    Eloise thought, "Hmph, girls love spicy food? It is Keh who likes spicy food!"


    Keh noticed a while ago that Eloise was not good with spicy things, but he didn''t say anything. It


    was funny the way her little goofy face flushed.


    He nced at Kaleb.


    Kaleb took a hint, smiled, and said, "It''s not a good idea for Mr. Ryan to dine in a restaurant! You don''t


    seem to like this very much. How about I order you something else?"


    Eloise teared up. "I want fried chicken and bubble tea!"


    She added, "Madelyn used to make it for me!"


    She brought Madelyn up...


    Keh let out a soft chuckle and thought, "She''s not too dumb."


    He whispered to Kaleb, "You order fried chicken and bubble tea for her!"


    Kaleb was actually quite surprised and wondered, "Mr. Ryan has never been such a good-natured


    person... It''s always the case that people around him are obedient to him in every matter. Mr. Ryan has


    never indulged a girl as much as he does now. He even asked me to order food for her..."


    But no matter what, the fried chicken and bubble tea were both served now.


    Eloise sat on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and ate with great satisfaction... Keh


    had never been a big eater, which was why he had managed to stay in such good shape in the political


    world for nearly 20 years.


    He just sat there, looking at the pretty little girl.


    The rk family had done a superb job raising her.


    She had swallowed her pills yesterday, and just now had a quarrel with her ex-fianc¨¦, but now she was


    happily eating fried chicken. She was so carefree.


    Keh became a little jealous of her.


    The table was already cleared, and Kaleb whispered in Keh''s ear, "Mr. Ryan, they''re here. Would


    you like to meet them now?"


    Keh nodded.


    Kaleb was discreet. "Are you going to the study?"


    Keh thought for a moment. "I think I''ll just meet them here. It''s not for anything particrly


    important anyway!"


    Hearing their conversation, Eloise wiggled her legs and grinned. "Uncle Ryan, I''ll leave you to your


    work. We''ll talk about our business when you''re done."


    Kaleb couldn''t help butugh.


    What could Eloise possibly have to talk to Keh about?


    Keh didn''t say anything.


    Next, Keh met with several groups of elites in their 30s and 40s.


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    In Eloise''s eyes, they all looked pompous and arrogant.


    But one of them was a radiantly beautiful, charming beauty. As she was leaving, she looked at Eloise


    and asked, "Mr. Ryan, is?"


    Keh, who didn''t like people prying into his private affairs, ndly said, "A junior!"


    ...


    Eloise tried to plead for her brother.


    She said in her mind, "But Uncle Ryan has to meet so many people. Doesn''t he ever get tired?"


    Then she was too sleepy and fell asleep on the couch, grabbing the pillow in her hand and hugging it


    tightly...


    ...


    As night fell, Keh saw off thest of the guests.


    He was very tired now, but he was used to drinking a ss of red wine to relieve the fatigue.


    Inside the suite, the lights were dim.


    Keh had changed into a ck suit and looked quiteposed.


    With a ss of wine in hand, he watched the girl on the couch. The light shone through the floor-to-


    ceiling windows on her, and it was colorful and beautiful as if ayer of ss had been built around


    her.


    He thought, "Howe there be such a little kid sleeping like a log?"


    She was lovely and innocent, not getting defensive at all!


    Perhaps because his gaze was too intense with affection, Eloise woke up, rubbed her eyes, and knelt


    down on the couch.


    She was slender.


    She wore a long white dress and had long ck hair.


    She was very pretty and didn''t look like a child at all.


    She got a clear look at the man in front of her and called out softly, "Uncle Ryan!"


    "You''re awake?"


    Keh put down the ss and smiled lightly, "Aren''t you afraid of sleeping in a strange man''s room?"


    Eloise''s face was flushed from her long sleep.


    She gently ran her hands through her hair and said reasonably, "No, you''re Madelyn''s uncle... I call you


    Uncle Ryan!"


    Keh took a step forward.


    As long as he reached out, he could touch her long, thick hair.


    But he just stood there.


    Eloise knelt on the couch and fixed her hair, her voice soft, "Uncle Ryan, how old are you?"


    Keh looked at her kneeling, and some images shed through his mind.


    He thenughed very softly...


    Eloise was struck dumb. "Uncle Ryan is so good-looking when he smiles!" Actually, she was never


    short of good-looking men around her. Benjamin was very handsome, but Uncle Ryan had a beautiful,


    manly smile.


    Her heart beat faster.


    Eloise thought, "No way, you''re not falling for Madelyn''s uncle, are you?"


    No way!


    She forgot to make Benjamin look good in front of Keh because she was overwhelmed by the fact


    that she might have a crush on Keh.


    Keh gently buttoned up his cufflinks. "It''s gettingte. I''ll take you home!"


    She didn''t say anything else and followed him out obediently.


    Keh took the special-purpose lift to the hotel''s underground garage, where he unlocked a ck


    Lotus Car and motioned for her to get in.


    Eloise sat next to him and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Ryan, where''s that secretary of yours? Don''t


    you have a lot of bodyguards with you at all times?"


    Keh lowered his head and lit a cigarette.


    His skin was exceptionally pale, and the corners of his eyes reddened a bit as he smoked. He looked


    like a wily, learned man.


    Exhaling a puff of smoke, he smiled faintly. "This is my private trip. I''m not taking them!"


    Private, private trip...


    Was it his personal trip to take her home?


    Eloise was not thinking straight again, and her hands even trembled when she put her hands on her


    The ck sports car was speeding down the road.


    At about nine o''clock, the car arrived at the rks'' mansion.


    Eloise put her hand on the door handle and felt her legs go a little weak as she turned around and


    whispered, "Thanks, Uncle Ryan, I..."


    Keh rested his elbows on the car window and smoked quietly.


    A momentter, he tossed the cigarette butt away, his voice husky, "I''m too old for little girls."


    Eloise bites her lip. "I''m 27. I''m not a little girl!"


    Keh''s long, pale fingers gently stroked the steering wheel.


    He smiled politely, even a little bit evil. "What are you if not a little girl when you have a doll with a little


    bottle with you?"

    Eloise ran away when Keh teased her.


    Keh didn''t leave immediately.


    He sat in his car and slowly smoked a cigarette, watching the slender figure disappear behind the ck


    carved gate and dart off into the night.


    He couldn''t help but think of someone.


    It was his sister, Madeline.


    Madeline died at a young age, and was unable to see her family before she died, which became a


    twinge in Keh''s heart.


    He had seen Madelyn''s picture.


    Madelyn looked very much like the Ryan family, with pale skin and long tawny hair.


    But in terms of temperament, Keh saw Madeline in Eloise.


    But Eloise seemed a little dumber than Madeline.


    Keh held a cigarette in his long fingers but forgot to puff on it. When the long ash fell onto his


    pants, he smiled forlornly and quietly.


    What was wrong with him today? He had just run into a mischievous girl.


    But why was he so sad?


    Keh sat there for a long time before starting the car and heading back to the hotel. He got back to


    his suite and saw Kaleb pacing the room frantic as an ant on a hot griddle. As soon as Kaleb saw him


    alone? What if something happened to you..."


    Keh sat down on the sofa.


    Even though he was extremely tired, he was still poised and graceful without a trace of dishevelment.


    He grabbed a throw pillow and was about to put it back, but then he suddenly smelled it.


    There was a faint scent on it.


    It wasn''t perfume, but simply the body odor of a girl.


    It was sweet and smelled like orange...


    Keh raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly, "If something happens to me, wouldn''t it be a good


    opportunity to get rid of this big mess? You don''t even know how tired I am of meeting so many people


    every day and being upset about stuff like that!"


    Kaleb poured Keh a cup of coffee and listened patiently to hisints.


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    Kaleb knew that Keh would only say such things in front of him.


    Keh was always unassable in front of outsiders.


    After saying a few words, Keh got ready to take a shower.


    Kaleb put Keh''s shirt away and said, "Should I ask Ms. Harris toe over and keep you


    By Ms. Harris, Kaleb meant Violet.


    Violet was a famous actress in theatrical circles, with a pretty face and a shapely body. She and


    Keh were hitting it off. Keh sometimes sought her out forpany.


    Keh was heading to the bathroom and thought for a few seconds. "Forget it! I''m not in the mood!"


    Kaleb followed him, and said softly, "You''re all bottled up sometimes!"


    Kaleb was right.


    Keh turned around and said in a teasing tone, "Did Violet ask you to be a lobbyist? She''s all right


    except that she''s a smart-ass! She''s beautiful, but I feel like I''m doing some social things when I spend


    time with her, which is exhausting!"


    Kaleb did not answer.


    It was indeed Violet, the beautiful actress, who softly begged Kaleb to say a few nice words about her


    in front of Keh. Kaleb thought she was great, but it was up to Keh, wasn''t it? Apparently,


    Keh didn''t think much of her right now.


    The sound of water running came from the bathroom...


    Kaleb wisely left, thinking, "Well, men in their early 40s have some personal things to sort out."


    That was the case with Keh.


    After the passion had subsided, he braced one hand against the tiled wall of the bathroom and lowered


    his head to rinse himself off.


    Obviously, he had a sex drive. There were beautiful women waiting for him, but he was just not in the


    mood... When he had just released his sexual impulses, the image that came to his mind was Eloise


    kneeling on the sofa.


    Eloise was so innocent and didn''t know anything about men!


    ...


    At the rks'' mansion.


    Eloise took a nap.


    When she woke up, there was her older brother, Benjamin, sitting by her bed.


    She moved over, leaned her head on Benjamin''sp, and called out softly, "Benjamin, how are things


    with Madelyn?"


    Benjamin pinched her face. "Madelyn is still your sister-inw."


    In fact, when Madelyn''s rtionship with Daniel came to light, his father didn''t approve of them being


    together. After all, the rtionship was tooplex, and as a father, it was not good to favor one child


    over another.


    Why didn''t they just split up with Madelyn?


    However, Madelyn''s uncle, Keh, came to the house and made a scene. Alexander was notoriously


    cross and thought, "Oh, the Ryan family is really out of line. I must let Madelyn marry into the rk


    family!"


    Benjamin missed Madelyn so much and hated it when she spent time with Nics. Besides, David was


    also in Esrand.


    But Eloise was also very important to him.


    He stroked her long hair and asked softly, "Have you really made up your mind?"


    Eloise pressed herself against him and said softly, "Hmm..."


    Benjamin wanted to ask something else, but the words died on his lips. Chloe had called Benjamin,


    and he knew about what had happened yesterday. He thought that Keh, of his standing and status,


    probably treated Eloise like a child.


    Keh was ssic and refined!


    Besides, Eloise would recover faster if she was kept busy.


    They were very close, and Benjamin had lunch with Eloise before going to the office.


    Eloise was now 27 and had never had a job.


    In the afternoon, Eloise wandered around the house and got bored, so she drove out of the house and


    went for a ride. Finally, she arrived at the hotel where Keh was staying...


    Eloise wondered, "How did I get here?"


    Eloise was a bit confused, and her cheeks flushed.


    Keh saidst night that Eloise was just a little girl, and that she wasn''t right for him. Eloise


    grumbled inside, "Yuck, who''s right for him? I did this just because he''s Madelyn''s uncle..."


    He was kind of good-looking.


    Just then, a ck Audi with license te xx8888 slowly drove out of the hotel.


    It was Keh''s car.


    Eloise blinked softly and followed it...


    Inside the Audi.


    Kaleb sat in the front, looked in the rearview mirror, and whispered, "It''s Ms. rk''s car."


    Keh was resting his eyes.


    At that, he gently opened his eyes a crack. "Don''t worry about her!"


    About an hourter, the car drove to a cemetery.


    Keh had already been here once two days ago. But today was the anniversary of Samuel''s death,


    so Keh came here to pay his respects. Keh was deeply grateful to Samuel, because Samuel


    not only took Madeline in and gave her meticulous care, but also treated Madelyn as if she were his


    own.


    Keh brought wine for Samuel and a bouquet of lilies for Madeline.


    It was a hot day.


    Keh stood there quietly. Even though his white shirt was soaking wet, he did not move.


    Kaleb held an umbre for Keh and stayed quietly by his side.


    Eloise followed Keh out of curiosity. She peeked at first, and then she crouched down like a puppy


    because her feet were so tired in her heels.


    She had never seen a man so sad.


    Keh did not shed tears, but his sadness broke her heart.


    After a long time, Keh suddenly said, "Why are you hiding? Come here!"


    Was he telling Eloise toe over?


    Eloise was confused, stood up to her feet, slowly moved over to Uncle Ryan, and called out to him in a


    low voice. Then her arm was gripped by a strong arm. He pulled her gently towards him.


    Standing so close to him, she realized that Keh was tall.


    She was 5.4 feet without heels, but she only came up to his ears. She could tell that he should be over


    6.3 feet tall.


    Keh caressed the photo on the tombstone.


    In the photo, Madeline was still young and innocent with a carefree smile.


    Keh smiled gently, "Samuel, Madeline, this is the rk family''s daughter, Benjamin''s sister. If


    you''re still around, you should be able to see Madelyn get married! Don''t worry, I''ll take good care of


    Madelyn!"


    With that, he got up and lightly pressed Eloise''s head. "Say hello to them!"


    Eloise was confused, and only after a long time did she stutter: "Mr. and Mrs. Ryan, I didn''t mean to


    intrude... Well, Benjamin''s going to be very nice to Madelyn, and if he''s not, my dad''s going to kick his


    ass."


    Kehughed very softly.


    Somehow, he was no longer depressed and in a better mood.


    Eloise looked at him sideways and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Ryan, you''re okay with Benjamin and


    Madelyn being together, aren''t you?"


    Keh headed outside. "Did I say that?"


    "Yes! You can''t deny it!"


    Eloise followed him and couldn''t help but hold his arm and shake it gently.

    Chapter 317 Crying in Uncle Ryan''s Arms (2)


    Keh looked down at her pale hands.


    She was oblivious to it and took his hand all the way out of the cemetery.


    Kaleb held an umbre behind them with a thoughtful look.


    Last night, Keh said Violet was no fun, but perhaps that was not the case with Violet. It was just


    that Keh met a better woman, and others seemed very dull to him.


    When Keh prepared for departure, he told the driver to take Eloise''s car.


    Eloise sat next to Keh, was quite talkative, and was not a little bit embarrassed byst night''s


    incident.


    As Kaleb drove, he smiled and thought, "It''s rare that Mr. Ryan isn''t annoyed."


    Keh got a personal call from one of his college buddies in Gredax, who said there would be a party


    this afternoon.


    Keh replied a few words, and then suddenly nced at Eloise.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Heughed softly, "You guys are doing this on purpose! You know I''m single, but you still have me


    bring a date over. Aren''t you just trying to make things difficult for me?"


    Keh''s ssmate on the other end of the phone said something...


    Keh stretched out his arm and gently stroked the seat. "Fine, you brats!"


    He hung up.


    Normally, Kaleb would find Keh a sensible and presentable date, who would definitely not cause


    Keh any trouble. But now Eloise was in the car. Kaleb couldn''t figure out what was going on in


    Keh''s mind, so he didn''t say anything.


    Sure enough, Keh dropped the phone and looked at Eloise.


    "Come to dinner with me!"


    Eloise was a little hesitant, wondering, "Would Uncle Ryan''s friends be all old men?"


    Keh''s tone was t. "You''ll get a bonus if you go!"


    Eloise was greedy for money and gave in...


    Back at the hotel, Keh changed his clothes.


    He was still wearing a white shirt and ck suit pants, but with two buttons undone and sleeves rolled


    up to his elbows, showing off an adult male''s arm muscles.


    All women loved his figure.


    He drove the ck Lotus Car and took her to a very private, members-only club. Ordinary people didn''t


    even know about a ce like this, let alone go in.


    The rk family was very rich but lived in different social circles from Keh, so Eloise had never


    been here.


    The manager didn''t dare to give Keh a second nce, just led them into the private room, and


    said, "Have fun, Mr. Ryan!"


    Keh nodded lightly.


    The gilded bronze door slowly closed. Keh leaned against the door and lit a cigarette.


    It looked like he came here a lot for fun.


    The private room wasrge, at least 900 square feet. The dining room was separated from the y


    area, and by now a dozen men and women were sitting at tables waiting for Keh.


    Keh just took a drag on his cigarette...


    A very decent man walked up to Keh with a ss of wine. "Keh, it wasn''t easy for me to get


    you to the party!"


    This guy was good-looking, but there was a bit of a dissolute expression in his eyes. He looked at


    Eloise and smiled. "Where did you find that little girl? She''s so pretty!"


    Keh blew a smoke ring. "A junior!"


    Santiago didn''t believe it.


    Who would believe Keh''s word? People at the club all knew the girls they brought to the party were


    all mistresses, and Keh, though not married, had a few confidants.


    In the morning, Ms. Harris had called him and pried into that.


    Santiago spoke in a frivolous manner. Keh smiled faintly, "I''m not lying! She is the rk family''s


    daughter, Benjamin''s sister."


    The men in the private room were dumbfounded.


    Thew king''s sister?


    What did Keh bring her here for?


    Keh, who thought he was Uncle Ryan, reached out and touched Eloise''s head. "The little girl


    wanted toe take a look at the club, so I brought her here to open her eyes. You guys don''t talk


    nonsense."


    Keh asked Eloise to greet Santiago, "This is Uncle Robinson."


    At that moment, a pretty, young woman came over and seemed even younger than Eloise.


    She was very close to Santiago.


    Eloise, who knew nothing of the ins and outs, called out sweetly, "Uncle Robinson, Mrs. Robinson."


    The womanughed.


    Everyone else in the private roomughed.


    The menughed at Keh, who found such a naive woman from nowhere, while the women sighed


    at their hearts whenughing, "How many women could be as simple as Eloise?"


    The atmosphere in the private room was very good, and everyone was very rxed.


    Instead of a meal, it was more of a social interaction that maintained their rtionships. Most of them


    were people of honor, and it was always a good thing to make good with each other.


    Among them, Keh was the highest in status.


    As long as Keh was willing to let them have a share of the new energy resources he held in his


    hands, they would make more money than they could spend in a lifetime.


    Of course, Keh also needed their help.


    Someone wanted to develop good rtionships with the rk family and Benjamin, and came over to


    toast Keh and Eloise. But Keh turned him down and said quite bluntly. "She doesn''t know


    about this."


    So no one dared to urge them to drink wine time and again.


    When Keh went to the restroom, Eloise followed him closely. In fact, everyone in the private room


    could see there was chemistry between them, but Keh made it clear that she was his junior, so


    they didn''t dare to question him.


    Keh washed his hands.


    Eloise leaned over him and whispered, "Uncle Ryan, they all seem a little afraid of you!"


    Keh turned off the gold faucet.


    He drank a little too much and had a cigarette to sober himself up.


    The smoke rose slowly...


    Keh thought about what Eloise had said... Although they were his old ssmates, and they


    socialized regrly, there was no doubt that they all wanted to be taken care of by Keh.


    Keh was so high and mighty but also lonely...


    Nowadays, people were afraid of him, ttered him, and addressed him as Mr. Ryan, but if something


    happened to him someday, he would be stepped on, couldn''t get up, and end up in pieces!


    Only Eloise, the little fool, was as simple and innocent as a puppy dog.


    He even regretted bringing her here...


    There was a little noiseing from the restroom, which sounded like a moan of pain or pleasure. At


    first, the sound was just muffled, but then, they were both indulging their every whim, probably because


    they got really turned on.


    The door of the restroom shook violently.


    The woman''s charming voice was either soft or swift, and there was also the man''sfortable


    wheezing gasp.


    Eloise was stunned...


    She could guess that they were definitely not a couple, and if they were, why would they be so eager to


    have sex here? Besides, the man was elevated in rank.


    She began to think about the age of the women in the private room...


    Then she was aggrieved.


    All these men brought their young mistresses here. Keh, however, brought Eloise.


    Eloise''s eyes reddened as she stared at Keh.


    Keh was still smoking slowly, and a touch of an unfathomable expressionmon to all grown


    men appeared on his gentle face.


    Eloise kicked him in anger.


    She had thought Uncle Ryan was decent and upright as hell!


    Keh, with the cigarette in his fingers, gently grasped her wrist in one hand, and whispered, "How


    can you take it out on me when you overhear people doing bad things?"


    She was still ring at him and thought, "You know exactly why."


    But... But her wrist felt tingly where he had touched it.


    Keh snuffed out his cigarette and prepared to take her away.


    At this moment, the man and woman inside had finished having sex, putting on their clothes so fast that


    they even came out of the restroom within a split second and whispered, "Let''s go to a hotel when the


    party is over! I need more."


    Eloise did not really know what to do...


    They would step off in a few seconds and know Eloise and Keh were overhearing them.


    Keh''s eyes were deep.


    He suddenly wrapped his arm around her waist and led her into the women''s restroom.


    The door mmed shut...


    Eloise''s heart pounded. Then she looked around and bit her lip, "What if we get seen out thereter?"


    Keh pressed her against the door.


    The little fool didn''t even realize the danger...


    Keh lowered his head, his pale, thin face close to her ear, and asked in a husky voice, "You''re


    afraid people will get the wrong idea?"


    She nodded dumbly.


    Kehughed quite lightly. In fact, it did not matter even if they were seen by others. No one would


    make a fuss about whatever happened inside this private room.


    He drank wine and felt that the woman he was holding in his arms was particrly soft.


    Their bodies pressed against each other, and Eloise was breathing heavily.


    She did not dare to move. Even just a little rise and fall of her chest pressed her tighter against him.


    Leaning against him like this, she realized he wasn''t as skinny as she thought. He wasn''t strong, but he


    was muscr all over.


    His warm body pressed against hers.


    It was not that Keh didn''t know anything about women. He sensed her unease and gently stroked


    her small head.


    "Are you scared?"


    Eloise whimpered.


    Keh cupped her face in both hands and said in a low voice, "Call me Uncle Ryan and we''ll go out."


    "Uncle... Ryan."


    She spoke these words intermittently, her lips quivering, her legs barely standing.


    She didn''t know what was wrong with her.


    She felt ashamed.


    But she knew how she felt and couldn''t even convince herself. She had a crush on Keh, whom she


    addressed as Uncle Ryan.


    Keh''s face moved a little closer to her until it was within reach.


    "I called you Uncle Ryan." Eloise was on the verge of tears.


    Keh spoke in a low mumble, "Hmm." Then he gently sped her head, pressed his lips against


    hers, and stuck his tongue straight into her mouth... When she resisted, he held her down with some


    force and said hoarsely, "Be good!"


    Eloise''s eyes widened as she watched him kiss her without her permission.

 Chapter 318 Crying in Uncle Ryans Arms (3)

    Chapter 318 Crying in Uncle Ryan''s Arms (3)


    Keh was a good kisser.


    They did the tongue kiss. Keh thoughtfully took Eloise in his arms, letting her whole body rest


    against his own.


    Even though Eloise had been in love, she couldn''t help but be seduced by Keh at this moment.


    When Keh released her, her legs went limp. She would have fallen to the floor if he hadn''t been


    holding her, and all she could do was hold onto his shoulder and lean gently against him. She didn''t


    know what to do.


    Eloise kissed Madelyn''s uncle...


    Her ears were buzzing.


    She heard the sounds of people having fun inside the private room, and the thumping of Keh''s


    heart.


    Keh had sobered up a bit.


    At first, he felt awkward bringing her here.


    But now, in such a confined environment, her legs were shaking after she had been kissing him. She


    was green and immature as a sweet and sour fruit.


    Eloise was wonderful, but Keh''s world was not for her.


    Keh stroked her head and said gently, "Eloise, I told you I''m too old for little girls! As you see, even


    when I go to a party for fun, it turns out to be a big social event. When have I ever had a moment of


    rxation?"


    His voice was husky, "Don''t fall for me."


    They were so intimate a second ago, but now he said such hurtful things to reject her.


    Eloise was a proud woman. With her eyes tearing up, she put on a brave face and said, "I don''t like


    you!"


    It was just a kiss!


    She didn''t care about it at all.


    Upon hearing this, Keh seemed to be relieved, but meanwhile, he was a bit disappointed. As a


    worldly and sophisticated person, he quickly hid his emotions...


    Then he said goodbye to his old ssmates.


    Santiago was surprised. "You''re leaving? We are waiting for you to y cards. We''ve already gotten


    this party started."


    Keh refused with ease and left with Eloise.


    Both of them felt in a bad mood when they got in the car.


    After a long silence, he lit a cigarette to ease his bad mood.


    Eloise whispered, "I''ll drive! I''ll take you back to the hotel."


    Keh was surprised.


    It wasn''t that he hadn''t been around women before. Most of the women, who came from a privileged


    family and were financially well off, were touchy. Of course, they were not unreasonable bit*hes and did


    not make a scene, but they would take the opportunity to ask men for something.


    They wanted an apology or affection from a man.


    Eloise was simple and not sophisticated, which was a luxury for him.


    They exchanged seats.


    Eloise silently drove the car to the hotel. Kaleb was waiting in the underground parking lot. When the


    car pulled over, Kaleb opened the door, smiled at the smell of alcohol, and said, "Yo, Mr. Ryan''s had a


    lot to drink! Thanks, Ms. rk."


    The wine went straight to Keh''s head.


    He didn''t feel drunk just now, but he was a little wobbly at this point.


    Kaleb asked Eloise to take Keh upstairs, saying, "It''s not a good idea to be photographed!"


    Eloise agreed.


    She didn''t think she would ever cross paths with Keh again. After all, they were going to be rted.


    The three of them were silent in the elevator.


    Kaleb found the atmosphere weird.


    He wondered, "Did something happen during this meal?"


    As Kaleb was thinking, the elevator stopped on the first floor.


    Outside the elevator stood Daniel, and Kaleb was surprised.


    Daniel couldn''t help but sneer, "So you did not answer my calls or listen to my exnations because


    you''re really in love with someone else. Eloise, how old is he? He''s 35, right? What, can such an old


    man satisfy you?"


    Eloise was so angry that her eyes were tearful.


    She did love Daniel once but broke up with him because he was keeping a mistress.


    Who was he to question her?


    But she was slow with her words. For a long time, she could think of nothing to argue back.


    Daniel wanted to say a few more harsh words.


    Keh struck a fancy match and said carelessly, "No matter how old I am, I''m sure I can satisfy the


    woman I''m with! But not so much for you, Mr. Campbell. You''ve been hanging out with too many


    women and you can''t even get hard when you get home, right?"


    Daniel wanted to have a fit.


    Keh straightened his shirt and grunted, "Daniel, I''m Keh, Madelyn''s uncle!"


    Daniel was dumbfounded.


    Keh?


    Madelyn''s uncle was Keh!


    At that moment, he thought of how he cheated Madelyn for four years, and how he used her to send


    Samuel to jail step by step before getting in with the rk family.


    He couldn''t imagine that Keh from Vadiff was Madelyn''s uncle.


    If that was the case, what had he been doing for four years?


    Daniel was wrecked...


    Keh was worried about Eloise, so he asked her to follow him into the suite.


    Just before entering the room, Keh said to Kaleb, "Go check out the Campbell Group! If there is


    anything wrong, you have the investigation team go there and look into it tomorrow!"


    Kaleb had been working with Keh for a long time and was a worldly-wise person.


    He could tell that Keh was in a bad mood, and it was not because Daniel provoked him. It was


    probably rted to Eloise. Kaleb smiled and said, "As long as I investigate with all my heart, I''ll find out


    what''s wrong!"


    Keh finally cooled down.


    Keh unbuttoned one of his shirt buttons, and then said carelessly as if he hadn''t thought of Eloise


    until now, "You personally arrange a ride to take her home."


    By now Kaleb was sure that they were at odds with each other.


    Keh seemed very calm and was more attentive to Eloise.


    When Eloise had been bullied by Daniel, Keh had helped her out. She was not relentless. She


    indeed had feelings for Keh, but she really didn''t know love. And it wasplicated.


    She thought she shouldn''t see him again...


    But as she left, she couldn''t help but turn around.


    Keh, with bathrobe in hand, was looking at her with deep eyes.


    "Uncle Ryan."


    She murmured the word softly, her eyes a little red. She knew that a big shot like him would never fall


    in love with an immature, young girl like her.


    With her head bowed, she followed Kaleb away.


    Keh put the bathrobe down and slowly sat down on the sofa.


    Just now, he was a little reluctant to let her go.


    However, he appreciated beauties who were sophisticated and thoughtful, affected, cutesy but not


    annoyed, and knew how to read the room.


    Perhaps it was because he hadn''t had a woman in a long time...


    Just as he was thinking about it, his cell phone rang. It was his mother calling from far away in Vadiff.


    Athena was anxious.


    Keh had found Madelyn, but why didn''t Keh bring her home?


    Keh calmed Athena down and smiled, "Madelyn is on a business trip in Esrand. She''ll go back to


    Vadiff ande straight to you when she''s done."


    Athena urged Keh to get married again.


    Keh gave a little chuckle, "Mom, marriage is about destiny. Do you want me to marry a random


    woman, who will always give you a hard time?"


    Athena snorted, "Don''t try to fool me! I know exactly who you are."


    They talked some more on the phone. Kaleb came back and heard Athena''s words.


    Keh hung up the phone. "Did you send her back?"


    Kaleb nodded, and after a moment of deliberation, he said, "Actually, if you like her, you might as well...


    It''s not that there''s already a big age difference, and she''s beautiful and simple."


    Keh was a little lost in thought.


    He thought about the kiss he''d had with her in the club bathroom, and he felt good.


    After a long while, he smiled bitterly, "We are wrong for each other! She and I will be rted. Besides,


    she is so simple. It is better not to get involved in too many worldly things!"


    With that, Keh took his bathrobe and went to take a shower.


    ...


    The next day, Eloise slowly came downstairs.


    In the living room, there were voices of conversation. It seemed that Alexander and Benjamin were


    talking.


    Alexander sipped his coffee and said in a sophisticated manner, "I heard that Daniel, that scum, is


    being targeted by Internal Revenue Service again, and was taken away by the investigation team early


    in the morning. It looks like he''s going to suffer a lot again!"


    Then Alexander cleared his throat. "Benjamin, are you behind it?"


    Benjamin knew what was going on, and said logically, "It should be another force! Daniel must have


    offended someone!"


    Alexander nodded.


    He also guessed who was behind it. Who else but Keh disliked Daniel and could have such power


    to make him pay?


    As they talked, they didn''t notice Eloise''s heart beating fast.


    Was it Uncle Ryan?


    Had Keh really dealt with Daniel because of the nasty things he had said?


    Suddenly, she wanted to see Keh.


    She drove to the hotel where Keh was staying without even eating breakfast. She hadn''t really


    figured out what to say to him when they met... Anyway, she wanted to meet him.


    When she got to the top floor of the hotel, she rang the doorbell.


    No one answered for a long time.


    The manager was walking by. He knew Eloise and that she was Keh''s guest.


    The manager told her, "Mr. Ryan has checked out!"


    He was gone...


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Eloise froze there.


    The manager saw that Eloise was upset, whispering, "This suite is reserved for Mr. Ryan all year


    round. You cane and see him when hees next time!"


    Eloise nodded.


    She didn''t know how she got out of the hotel.


    Sitting in the car, she hesitated for a long time holding the phone and did not dial Keh''s number...


    He left without a word, which meant he really didn''t take her seriously.


    Eloise scolded herself in her heart, "Aren''t you ashamed to follow him around a lot? Forget it..."

    Chapter 319 Mr. Ryan You''re Out of My League (1)


    Two monthster, it was October, and Eloise saw Keh again.


    Brianna was a fan of theater.


    Violet, Brianna''s favorite opera singer, had three performances this month.


    Unfortunately, Brianna was sick, so she gave her ticket to Eloise and asked her to send Violet flowers


    on her behalf and ask for an autograph.


    Eloise was bored.


    In the afternoon, she asked Madelyn toe with her.


    Tension between Madelyn and Benjamin had thawed quite a bit. Madelyn cared about Eloise a lot, so


    she agreed and asked Vivian to go with her to the theater.


    Opera Garden was the best Gredax opera in the North.


    On this day, Violet was ying the Lady of the Camellias. She acted and sang well, and the audience


    broke into rapturous apuse.


    Eloise, however, yawned.


    If Brianna hadn''t asked for an autograph, Eloise would have left. With her face painted so pale, Violet


    looked like a ghost. Her headgear was tight and herrge eyes bulged...


    Eloise wondered, "Doesn''t Violet feel ufortable dressed like this?"


    The y was over, and Violet got offstage.


    When she was backstage, she looked a bit like a different person. She took off her earrings and said to


    her assistant, "I''m not seeing any fans today. Tell them toe another day!"


    Violet, who came from a long line of opera singers, was a proud woman. Not all the fans had the


    chance to see her. Today, that person came to the y.


    Violet''s assistant was in a dilemma.


    She muttered, "All right, but I''m afraid there is someone you need to see."


    Violet took off her outer skirt and asked curiously, "What kind of person do I have to see?"


    "It''s Ms. rk! Her mom is too sick toe and wants an autograph."


    Violet froze.


    The next second, she smiled brightly, "It''s Ms. rk! I''ll go see her then... Briannaes to watch my


    y very often. Go lead her here, and I''ll give her an autograph."


    With that, Violet lifted the curtain and went inside.


    There came a male maic voice...


    Over here, Eloise and her friends, led by Violet''s assistant, came backstage.


    Violet was really popr.


    A long aisle was nked by hundreds of bunches of flowers, 32 of which were sent by Mr. Ryan. He


    was the most generous.


    Mr. Ryan...


    Eloise''s heart jolted.


    She wondered, "Is it Mr. Ryan I''m thinking of?


    Violet''s assistant followed Eloise''s gaze and said with a smile, "Mr. Ryan is an old friend of Ms. Harris.


    Every time he arrives in Gredax, he wille here and listen to Ms. Harris sing opera. I heard that Mr.


    Ryan enjoys high status and Ms. Harris is the only reason he is here."


    Eloise listened quietly and had the sudden urge to leave.


    But she and her friends already arrived at the door of the dressing room. Violet''s assistant pushed open


    the door with a smile. "Ms. rk is here."


    The door was open.


    The scene inside came into view.


    Eloise froze.


    Inside, Violet was wearing a tight-fitting dress, with her thick, raven hair pulled up. She was morous.


    She snuggled up to a man.


    The man, in a white shirt and ck pants, was good-looking and refined. He was raking a gold hairpin


    through Violet''s silky hair...


    They looked like they were flirting with each other.


    Anyone could tell that they had a close rtionship!


    Eloise stood stock-still. She didn''t expect to walk in on them.


    Keh had kissed her...


    But Eloise had never seen this side of Keh. So, such an attractivedy like Violet was his type.


    They looked good together.


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    Not only Eloise but also Keh was a bit surprised.


    Since Madelyn was there, Keh put down the gold hairpin and called out, "Eloise!"


    Eloise didn''t respond.


    Her lips quivered a little as she remained mute.


    Madelyn looked at Keh and then at Eloise in confusion. They didn''t seem to have crossed paths in


    her knowledge, but when Keh greeted Eloise, he sounded like he knew her well...


    As the silence stretched, Kaleb came over.


    He froze at the sight!


    Kaleb, Keh''s right-hand man, was very good at breaking the ice. He said to Madelyn, "Oh, Ms.


    Green is here, too! Mr. Ryan missed you and wanted toe over to see you!"


    Madelyn hid her surprise and greeted Keh. "Uncle."


    Vivian, who was on the same page with her, realized something and said with a smile, "What a


    coincidence!"


    Violet smiled and said, "So you''re Mr. Ryan''s family. I would like to invite you all to dine at Badmaash


    Restaurant across the street. The food there is quite good!"


    As Violet spoke, she fanned herself, wafting the sweet scent of her past them.


    Just as she finished, Eloise spoke up, "I have a bit of a headache, so I won''t be there!"


    What followed was a short silence.


    Kaleb quickly said, "I''ll go get you some medicine!"


    He was attentive to Eloise. Violet nced sideways at Kaleb and said in a coquettish tone, "Kaleb, you


    never have this worried face when I don''t feel well."


    Violet said to Kaleb, but she wasining that Keh did not care enough about her.


    Keh smiled faintly. "People around you will get you medicine, won''t they?"


    Violet took his arm and whispered softly, "I''ll get better if you''re with me when I''m not feeling well..."


    Eloise''s face was as white as a sheet.


    Kaleb saved the situation again. They finally arrived at the restaurant and asked for a private room.


    Violet dreamed of marrying Keh, so she always tried to get closer to Madelyn.


    Madelyn, however, was cold and distant.


    Later, Violet tried to butter Eloise up. She put a cod steak on Eloise''s te, and surprisingly, Keh


    did the same thing.


    Eloise looked down at the two cod steaks on her te and felt disgusted.


    Keh read Eloise''s childish thoughts and said, "Eat more meat, and you''ll grow faster!"


    Violet snuggled up to Keh, with a gentle, affectionate look in her eyes. "Keh is right. Eating


    more meat will help you grow better!"


    Violet never doubted Keh''s rtionship with Eloise.


    After all, Eloise was much younger and Violet heard her call him uncle.


    Eloise couldn''t stay for another second.


    She said, "Excuse me." Then she headed to the bathroom. Once inside, she turned on the faucet and


    sshed water on her face.


    She couldn''t help but cry.


    Two months ago, Keh had left without saying goodbye. Eloise had been upset, though she knew


    she was not even entitled to anger. But today, she was sick to her stomach after walking in on Keh


    with Violet.


    Eloise couldn''t ept this terrible insult.


    She hated Keh''s guts.


    The door to the restroom opened and then was locked from the inside.


    Eloise was still crying, her little face pale and her nose red.


    After a long while, she found Keh was here, and the door was locked. She froze, staring at him in


    the mirror...


    Keh asked in a soft, loving voice, "You''re angry?"


    Eloise stared hard at him.


    She couldn''t forget his flirtatious smile when he was with Violet. Though he hadn''t gone too far, he had


    obviously flirted with her.


    He was a pervert!


    Eloise turned suddenly, her eyes red.


    "Mr. Ryan, you and I are not close. Why should I be angry? I''m not your type, right? Go find someone


    curvy then!"


    Eloise was just being childish and immature.


    Although Keh didn''t intend to have a rtionship with her, he still wanted to soothe her.


    Besides, he didn''t want her to know about his private life.


    So, he smiled, "She and I are just friends!"


    Eloise was aware that Keh told a white lie before things turned ugly. After all, they were rted.


    She calmed down a little and dropped her eyes. "Just give me a moment. I need to wash my face!"


    Keh felt terrible, too.


    Eloise was just a little girl. He already made up his mind to keep her at a distance.


    However, they bumped into each other.


    Keh stroked Eloise''s head. "Go out to eat when you''re done, okay?"


    He went out, without alerting anyone. Eloise tidied herself up and followed him out. It was just that she


    was in a bad mood and had no appetite.


    Madelyn could tell that there was something wrong with Eloise.


    She looked at Eloise and then at her uncle, lost in thought.


    ...


    At the end of the meal, they said goodbye to each other.


    Keh was standing next to Violet. They looked great together.


    Eloise got into her car.


    She gripped the steering wheel, then hunched over it. The day she had broken up with Daniel, she had


    never imagined that she would ever be so broken up over a man again.


    She could feel that Keh had feelings for her.


    But he treated her like a child and preferred to associate with Violet.


    Was it because Violet was gentle and understood him?


    Just then, the door of the Audi opened, and Kaleb got in the car and left alone.


    Eloise''s heart beat a little faster.


    She guessed that Keh would have funter, perhaps at that fancy club. Would he take Violet


    there? Would he put his arm around her, kiss her in the restroom, or even have sex with her...?


    Eloise thought maybe she wouldn''t feel so bad after seeing them with her own eyes.


    An hourter, Eloise pulled over.


    The doorman of the club recognized her. She had been here with Mr. Ryan for a bit of fun, and she got


    a limited-edition sports car. So, the doorman let her right in.


    A waiter opened the door for Eloise and said with a smile, "Mr. Ryan just got here too!"


    The door was open.


    Keh was indeed there, ying cards with a group of people.


    In the midst of the revelry, he still looked good.


    The sleeves of his white shirt were rolled up to his elbows. His face turned a little red, and a cigarette


    hung from his lips.


    Violet leaned over to Keh, with a soft breast pressed against his arm as if she were telling him


    which card to y. There was a very gentle look in her eyes...


    Eloise couldn''t bear looking at them any longer.


    She turned to leave, but someone there recognized her. It was Santiago. "Hey, Ms. rk. Are you here


    for your Uncle Ryan?"


    Keh''s hand froze on a card.


    He slowly put it down and looked toward the door...

 Chapter 320 Mr. Ryan Youre Out of My League (2)

    Chapter 320 Mr. Ryan You''re Out of My League (2)


    Chapter 320 Mr. Ryan You''re Out of My League (2)


    The atmosphere inside was weird.


    Keh''s finger traced over the card and his expression became sombre. No one could tell what he


    was thinking.


    Eloise stood in the doorway, with tears in her eyes.


    She was like a poor puppy.


    Keh slowly got up and walked toward the door. Violet seemed to realize something and called out


    to him, "Keh!"


    Keh didn''t seem to hear her and paced to the door. His tone was gentle and loving as he said,


    "Why are you following me here?"


    Eloise looked up at him.


    So did Violet and the other people inside.


    After a long moment, Eloise said, "I forgot the autograph!"


    She was obviously lying.


    Everyone in there could tell it, but no one dared to call her out on her lie.


    Because Eloise was special to Keh.


    A smile slowly lit Keh''s face. Then he turned his head and said, "Violet, this is your fault! Give her


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    your autograph so that she can go home early."


    Violet was amazingly good at being nice.


    Immediately, she opened her handbag, took out a fragrant photo, and signed her name on it. Her


    bottom wiggled as she walked over to Eloise. She handed the autograph to Eloise and teased, "Your


    Uncle Ryan is right. It''s my fault!"


    Eloise muttered a thank you.


    She refused to look at Keh again, but Keh kept staring at her...


    When Eloise turned to leave, Keh asked someone to drive her home.


    "No need!" Eloise shook her head wildly. "I drove here."


    Keh then said nothing more. He reached out, as if to stroke her hair, but finally dropped his hand


    and smiled, "Drive safe."


    Eloise merely said, "Hmm." Then she turned to leave.


    From beginning to end, Eloise did not question orin about Keh because they were not


    lovers. There was nothing going on between them.


    She was not even allowed to like him!


    The luxurious bronze door closed slowly.


    Inside, Keh resumed ying cards with Violet in his arms.


    But Eloise was all alone. Her shadow lengthened as the lights above shone down the hallway.


    ...


    A lively bustle resumed in the private room.


    Violet snuggled up to Keh, serving him gently. Santiago and his friends teased, "You should have


    let her stay, Keh. She always tags along behind you like a puppy. Why did you let her go?"


    Keh bantered a bit with them.


    However, he suddenly got upset. He wasn''t supposed to feel this way.


    Keh was single and of course, he needed a woman. Eloise walked in on him with Violet just now,


    but it was not a big deal. Eloise and Keh were not in a rtionship, so she was not in a position to


    stop him from fooling around. But he just felt ufortable.


    "I''m out!"


    In the end, Keh put his cards aside and left the party.


    The room was quiet.


    After a long moment, Violet forced a smile and said very softly, "Are you not feeling well? Go to my


    ce and I''ll give you a massage. You always have too much on your te."


    Santiago chimed in, "Yeah, let Ms. Harris take care of you."


    Keh didn''t want to embarrass Violet.


    He would just let her!


    ....


    Violet''s home was elegant. Thinking that Keh woulde, she had asked the maid to light amp


    in the bedroom.


    This was Keh''s favorite style.


    Keh leaned back on the sofa, his eyes closed. He enjoyed Violet''spany.


    Violet leaned beside him and hummed softly. The tight-fitting dress set off her thin waist and soft


    breasts, making her look more alluring.


    Keh listened for a while, but the more he listened, the more disturbed he became. He gently


    opened his eyes.


    Violet crouched beside him and begged softly, "Stay with me for the night, will you?"


    Almost all men were tempted to stay with such a beautifuldy.


    However, Keh couldn''t stop thinking of Eloise, who acted like she didn''t care with tears in her eyes.


    Nudging Violet out of the way, Keh put on his shoes and said in a businesslike tone, "I''ve got a lot


    to do tomorrow morning. It''s a bit out of my depth!"


    Violet was upset.


    Clearly, this was just his excuse...


    Keh pinched her face and coaxed, "I''m quite busy. Really!"


    Violet stomped her feet but didn''t dare take it out on him.


    Keh walked out of the house. Kaleb, who was waiting in the car, was surprised to see him and


    asked, "You''re not with Ms. Harris tonight?"


    Keh hopped in the car and did not answer.


    After a long while, he suddenly asked, "Do you think the little thing will be mad at me?"


    Kaleb was confused.


    Later, he realized who Keh was talking about and said with a smile, "Oh, she''s just a little girl and


    will forget it in a few days."


    Keh smiled faintly.


    Kaleb was right. Eloise had a baby bottle in her bag. How long could her infatuationst?


    Keh closed his eyes and whispered, "Go to the rks'' mansion."


    ...


    Late at night.


    Right after Alexander went to bed, a maid came upstairs and knocked on the door, saying that


    Keh''s car was outside.


    The maid repeated, and Alexander finally sat up straight.


    Brianna put on her clothes but then was stopped by Alexander. Alexander said through his gritted


    teeth, "Keh must have a bad time. That''s why he is in our doorway in the middle of the night!"


    But Alexander had to deal with it.


    Benjamin and Madelyn were not yet married. Alexander still had to be nice to Keh.


    Alexander slipped into his coat and came down the stairs with a smiling face. He greeted Keh


    warmly and said, "Oh, Keh, why didn''t you tell me you wereing to Gredax? Or I would have


    held a dinner for you."


    Standing in the hall, Keh looked incandescent.


    He smiled, "Well, it''s not toote!"


    Alexander''s wrinkled face stiffened. "Now?"


    Was Keh kidding?


    It was almost 10 p.m., and Keh still wanted a banquet. He must be crazy!


    While they were talking, a girl in a whitece nightdress slowly walked down the stairs. Her long raven


    hair was loose and her eyes were red from crying.


    It was Eloise.


    She heard the noise, then went downstairs and saw Keh.


    What was he doing here?


    Keh was as rxed as he could be, smiling at Eloise as if she were a kid.


    Under the light, her face was pale.


    Alexander did not notice it. He ordered the butler to prepare the food and said to Eloise, "You''re down


    here. Go greet your Uncle Ryan."


    Eloise''s lips moved, but nothing came out.


    She swung around and ran upstairs.


    Alexander shook his head and said to Keh, "She''s spoiled! Don''t mind her, Keh."


    Keh looked upstairs and smiled, "It''s fine. She''s just such a baby."


    The butler brought over the food and wine. Alexander dined and chatted with Keh for more than an


    hour, but he still didn''t know what Keh was here for...


    In the wee hours of the morning, Kaleb helped Keh into the car.


    Keh drank too much wine. He leaned back in his seat and thought, "I''m going back to Vadiff in the


    morning, but Eloise is still mad at me."


    He had to cheer her up.


    Keh called Eloise, but she didn''t answer. After seven or eight beeps, he hung up the phone.


    He couldn''t tell how he felt. His heart was aching dully.


    In fact, Keh should not have fallen in love, let alone with a girl much younger than him... Even if he


    kept denying it and telling the people around him that she was just his junior, he couldn''t lie to himself


    that she meant nothing to him.


    He couldn''t start a rtionship with her, but he kept thinking of her...


    Keh opened the window and let the wind blow in to clear his head. After a long moment, he yed


    it cool and bantered with Kaleb. "I''m sorry for all this!"


    ...


    A lot of women liked Keh.


    That was partly because of his wealthy family or his good looks... Keh couldn''t even remember


    their names.


    But Eloise was special. Keh cared much about her.


    They neither had sex before nor were publicly in love... They just had a meal together. She took a nap


    in his bedroom and he kissed her once.


    She called him Uncle Ryan...


    For a long time, he hadn''t heard from her.


    After learning that Madelyn got pregnant, the rk family came to her door and nned the marriage.


    Keh assumed that Eloise woulde along. After all, she liked the crowds.


    But Eloise didn''t show up...


    Keh was a little disappointed and thus away from the hustle and bustle. He smoked half a pack of


    cigarettes alone.


    The day Madelyn and Benjamin held a wedding.


    Keh finally saw Eloise. She was in a beautiful blue dress, the purest shade of blue he had ever


    seen. She was among the group of girls, cold and distant, so he could only see her from a distance.


    Keh thought, "That''s good."


    What could he say to her when he met her? He had nothing to offer her.


    They would never get together.


    There were obstacles that stood between them, like status and age.


    Keh didn''t dare to think that Eloise''s love for him would be able to withstand any tests... He was


    forced to give her up before he could tell her his true feelings.


    But he still missed her.


    He hadn''t contacted any of his confidantes for a long time...


    Unaware of the inside story, Santiago said that Keh switched to a chaste life. But only Keh


    himself knew that he was identally in love with Eloise!


    On a business trip to Esrand, Keh freed up some time on his schedule and lined up to buy two


    bunny dolls.


    He heard that it was called SteLou.


    Girls all loved it.


    Keh brought two dolls back to the office, and Kaleb couldn''t helpughing. "How cute they are!


    Aren''t you going to Gredax on business next week? Eloise will surely be happy to have them."


    Keh lit a cigarette and looked askance at Kaleb. "Who told you I bought them just for her? One is


    for Madelyn, and one is for Eloise, okay? I bought them not just for Eloise!"


    Kaleb quickly said, "Yeah, you did this mainly for Ms. Green."


    Keh then let Kaleb off the hook...


    With no one else around, Keh couldn''t help but think that Eloise would be happy to have the doll.


    Girls were supposed to be lively and cheerful...

 Chapter 321 Mr. Ryan Youre Out of My League (3)

    Chapter 321 Mr. Ryan You''re Out of My League (3)


    Chapter 321 Mr. Ryan You''re Out of My League (3)


    It was the night before New Year''s Day when Keh saw Eloise again.


    Keh had a 12-hour meeting and was exhausted. On the way back to the hotel, he was resting with


    his eyes closed in the car.


    There were twovender bunny dolls next to him.


    They were cute and cuddly, but they looked out of ce.


    Kaleb turned and said with a smile, "You''ll be able to see Eloise tomorrow. It''s been a long time. She


    may be no longer mad at you."


    Keh stroked the bunny ears and said, "She''s such a baby. I don''t want to see her that much."


    Kalebughed.


    Kehughed along with him...


    In a good mood, Keh rolled the window down, looked out at the lights, and sighed, "A year has


    passed! I''m one year older!"


    Kaleb said softly, "You''re still in your prime!"


    He was not wrong about that.


    Given Keh''s age and position, he was indeed in his prime.


    Hearing this, Keh patted his pants leg andughed, "I''m in my prime? Madelyn is going to be a


    mom next year, and I''m going to be a granduncle..."


    There were only three of them in the car, so they talked freely.


    Kaleb joked, "With your ability, it wouldn''t be hard for you to have a baby!"


    The driverughed.


    Keh lit a cigarette andughed, "You''re getting more out of line, dude!"


    Kaleb made some more witty remarks.


    The atmosphere in the car was lively. The car went further and then stopped by Fortune Square at a


    red light. The driver smiled and said, "Mr. Ryan, they seem to be celebrating New Year over there. It''s


    lively."


    Keh looked over.


    It was indeed lively.


    There was a fireworks disy. The fireworks lit up the night sky and brightened up the city. It was very


    beautiful.


    On the square, a group of young people were having fun.


    There were some famous cars around. It could be seen that they were rich kids.


    Keh caught a glimpse of Eloise in the crowd.


    She was wearing a big white down coat and a woolen hat, with a sparkler in her hand. She was like a


    little girl.


    Her face was red, and her smile was much brighter than the fireworks...


    Keh stared at Eloise silently.


    It turned out that she had a great time when he was missing her.


    He thought that she would be sad for a long time.


    Kaleb read Keh''s thoughts and pretended to be surprised. "Isn''t that Eloise? It''s not safe for a girl


    to hang out in the middle of the night. Why don''t we get her in the car and take her home?"


    Keh yed along.


    He smoothed his woolen pants, then opened the door to get out of the car.


    He stood not far from her, exuding extraordinary dignity. He thought if Eloise looked up, she could see


    her Uncle Ryan...


    Suddenly, the crowd erupted.


    "Propose to her!"


    "Propose to her!


    "Propose to her! Propose to her!"


    ...


    A young man, holding a rose, got down on one knee as fireworks exploded in the sky.


    He told Eloise that he liked her.


    Keh saw that Eloise covered her mouth, seemingly in shock.


    He also caught a sincere look on that young man''s face, and that young man seemed to like Eloise so


    much...


    Keh didn''t walk forward.


    Even though he already stepped out of the car.


    Even though he already thought of his opening line.


    Keh just stood there, watching Eloise quietly. Later, he rubbed his forehead andughed...


    How conceited he was!


    At that time, Eloise followed Keh around and called him Uncle Ryan, but he forgot the fact that she


    had lots of choices. The rk family was the wealthiest family in the North, and Eloise was pretty. A girl


    like her could have anyone she wanted.


    The rk family only had two children.


    Madelyn, Eloise''s sister-inw, wasn''t a hard nut to crack. Benjamin would take care of Eloise for the


    rest of her life if she wanted.


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Eloise could remain single for the rest of her life as she liked.


    But what could Keh give her?


    The SteLou he lined up to buy, or his true feelings that he bottled up?


    It was ridiculous!


    Keh had never felt so self-loathing in his life... Eloise looked up and saw him in his light-colored


    tweed suit that entuated his good figure, grace, and dignity.


    Keh was shinier than the whole night sky.


    In front of Eloise was the young man who said he liked her...


    Eloise unconsciously murmured, "Uncle Ryan!"


    Keh looked at her silently.


    After what seemed an eternity, Keh felt his eyes hurt. A faint smile curled his mouth as he nodded


    at Eloise. Then he got into the ck RV.


    Four ck Audi drove away slowly.


    Keh sat in the car, with two cute rabbit dolls beside him.


    With his eyes closed, Keh leaned back and whispered to Kaleb in the front seat, "Book a flight for


    tomorrow morning."


    Kaleb hesitated about saying his thoughts.


    After a few moments, he summoned up the courage to say, "You were supposed to give her what you


    lined up for personally."


    Keh held a hand over his eyes. His Adam''s apple moved up and down in his throat. "Have


    someone send the dolls to Madelyn, and tell her that it''s for her and Eloise. Don''t say I bought them."


    Keh was too proud to let anybody know that he fell in love with Eloise.


    He gave her up again.


    Keh sat silently in the car. He had never felt inferior before. But when the young man told Eloise he


    liked her, Keh felt less confident.


    What he did was too insignificantpared to what that young man did...


    Keh felt unworthy of Eloise.


    The fireworks were all over the sky, and everywhere was bustling with life. But unbeknownst to


    Keh, the girl he loved was standing there all alone behind him...


    As the bell rang at the stroke of midnight on New Year''s Eve, Eloise mouthed Keh''s name with red


    eyes, "Uncle Ryan..."

 Chapter 322 He Also Called Her Name In His Dream

    Chapter 322 He Also Called Her Name In His Dream


    Chapter 322 He Also Called Her Name In His Dream


    On New Year''s Day, she received the rabbit.


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Even if Madelyn didn''t say it, Eloise still guessed that this rabbit was sent by Keh.


    Recently, Mr. Ryan went to Esrand.


    At night, shey on the big white bed, hugging the rabbit.


    She missed Uncle Ryan.


    She thought that since she had received a gift, she needed to thank him by courtesy. Besides, it was


    New Year and she should say ''Happy New Year'' to him...


    Finally, she sent him a WhatsApp message.


    [Happy New Year, Uncle Ryan!]


    After waiting for a long time, he finally replied a [Happy New Year].


    The simple three words made his little girl cry, burying her face in the nket and secretly crying,


    crying for emotions she couldn''t confide in.


    Whenever she fell in love with a man, she could fearlessly confess it to him.


    She could express frankly: I like you!


    But this person was Keh, he was Mr. Ryan!


    He was also Madelyn''s uncle.


    Eloise detested herself but couldn''t help but like him. She, who usually didn''t watch news, began to


    watch TV and read newspapers intentionally or unintentionally, and sometimes even secretly listened


    when her father and brother talked about that person.


    But she knew clearly deep down that he didn''t belong to her!


    ...


    In Vadiff. It was night.


    Keh, dressed in a well fitting formal attire, sat in the office quietly entranced by his phone.


    Kaleb pushed the door in.


    "Mr. Ryan, are you ready? Everyone outside is waiting for your thrill up!"


    Keh did not move.


    Kaleb walked over and spoke softly, "What''s wrong, Mr. Ryan?"


    Keh pointed to his phone and smiled, "My little girl sent me message!"


    He thought that she should have received the gift and liked it very much.


    Unfortunately, it was not delivered to her personally.


    Keh put his phone into his pocket, and when he stood up, his smile had already vanished and he


    had once again be the respected Mr. Ryan.


    Kaleb followed him and sighed softly.


    It was very lively outside, and after Keh said a few words, he had a meal with his subordinates.


    He was drunk when the meal was over!


    Sitting in the back seat of the car, he kept holding his phone and watching the message his little girl


    sent him, nagging Kaleb, "You don''t know how much I want to let go of this mess and how much I want


    to rest for a month... how much I want to be ten years younger!"


    That way, perhaps he would have the courage to stand under the fireworks.


    Looking at his little girl''s smiling beautiful face.


    Kaleb was startled by his words and after getting off the car, he coaxed and tried every possible way to


    persuade him into his house.


    Athena loved her son so much that she took personal charge of his care.


    When Keh woke up in the midnight, feeling the person around him was so tender, he grabbed her


    wrist and whispered, "Eloise!"


    Athena didn''t hear clearly.


    ''Who''s that... Lucy?''


    ''Do young people nowadays like to call their lovers by nickname like this?''


    At the moment, Athena fiercely patted her son''s hand and said angrily, "I''m afraid you are living in a


    fool''s paradise! Which one of your female confidant are you calling?"


    Keh''s suddenly sobered up.


    He of course remembered who he had just dreamt of, feeling a bit embarrassed for a moment, and his


    gentle face showed a faint blush.


    Athena''s expression immediately became stern and she said, "What kind of man are you who just


    shouted her name in dreams? Only when you marry her and carry on the line of the Ryan family, can I


    call you a true man!"


    Keh sat up and pulled out a cigarette.


    He silently smoked half a cigarette before faintly smiling and saying, "Mom, it''s nothing!" Then he put


    out his cigarette and entered the bathroom.


    Athena muttered secretly, ''What was the name my son called just now?''


    ''Eloise?''


    ''That''s a pretty nice name.''


    In the bathroom, Keh held onto the wall and took a shower.


    The warm water poured from his head to foot and his vision were blurry. However, he knew very clearly


    that he had indeed fallen in love with Eloise. During the past six months when she had been at odds


    with him, he had no other females around.


    No matter how sexy and witty other beauties were, he was not in the mood to appreciate them.


    Knowing that there would be no good ending with Eloise, he still naively guard his integrity... He was


    afraid of being noticed by the little girl that even when she frowned slightly, he could keep it in mind for


    a long time.


    Keh smiled helplessly...


    *


    They didn''t get in touch, even if he was on a business trip to Gredax.


    Even if they met, they saw each other from afar.


    The turning point was when Madelyn''s house exploded...


    That morning, while Keh was still in a meeting, Madelyn called and cried, "Uncle, help me!"


    He rushed to Gredax.


    Madelyn was already in the hospital, covered in blood and desperately giving birth.


    He always remembered standing outside the delivery room, his heart almost stopping.


    He had lost his sister and he couldn''t afford to lose Madelyn.


    Keh''s eyes turned red and he said, "Where is Benjamin?"


    The three numbers of the rk family were all there.


    Brianna wept sadly and Alexander shook his head helplessly. Finally, Eloise whispered, "He went to


    Monatiz to file awsuit for Eleanor!"


    Keh immediately cursed: "Fuck thiswsuit!"


    Eloise trembled in her voice and called out to Uncle Ryan. Keh''s originally more unpleasant words


    were stuck in his throat and he didn''t say them again.


    He went into the delivery room to check on Madelyn and came out in about 10 minutes.


    The child was in a very bad situation and should actually be given up, but Madelyn insisted on giving


    birth.


    Even if she broke two ribs.


    The aisle outside the delivery room was quiet. Keh leaned against the wall and slightly raised his


    head. His eyes were hot, as if something was about to fall...


    The waiting time was very long.


    Madelyn suffered for 16 hours, and it wasn''t until midnight that she struggled to give birth to her baby.


    It was little Everest.


    Everest''s situation was very bad due to premature delivery, and she was immediately sent to the ICU


    by the nurse, even before the family could catch a glimpse of her.


    The doctor came out to exin the situation and mildly instructed them to be mentally prepared and


    pay attention to the emotions of the mother.


    The tears in Keh''s eyes finally fell.


    This was the first time Eloise had seen him shed tears. Her impression was that he was always strong,


    as if nothing could defeat him.


    In thetter half of the night, he didn''t sleep and smoked outside.


    In the early morning.


    Keh walked into the ward. Brianna went to the service desk. In the ward, Eloise was lying by


    Madelyn''s bed, asleep, seemingly unable to stay awake any longer.


    Keh lightly patted her shoulder.


    The little girl woke up immediately, opened her red eyes and greeted Uncle Ryan in a daze.


    "You still know that I''m your Uncle Ryan?"


    He had a hoarse voice and said something ambiguous and confusing.


    But Eloise had no time to think about, because in the current situation, her little feelings were


    insignificant. She only hoped that Madelyn could recover and little Everest would be okay.


    She asked Keh to talk with Madelyn.


    She ran to the door of the ICU ward and looked inside through a ss door, but she couldn''t see


    anything... She leaned against the ss door and silently shed tears.


    Little Everest, god bless you!


    She didn''t know if her brother and sister-inw''s rtionship could be as good as before, but she


    wanted Everest to live well. Everest was so young and cute.


    Not far away, Keh stood quietly.


    He heard the little girl say silly words...


    Kaleb gently advised on the side, "You should eat something. How can you feel good without eating


    and drinking in a whole day and night?"


    Keh turned around and whispered, "Send her a breakfast."

    Chapter 323 Mr. Ryan, We Just Had a One Night Stand


    Although Keh was very busy, he still stayed in Gredax to apany Madelyn.


    Kaleb obtained a small office with the help of connections.


    Although its size was small, it was full featured.


    Keh usually worked here, with bodyguards guarding outside, while Kaleb came in and out,


    traveling from ces to ces.


    The next day, Benjamin rushed back from Monatiz!


    Travel-worn, weary and full of guilt!


    At the entrance of the ICU ward, Keh fought with him. Even if Benjamin didn''t fight back, Keh''s


    hands were still slightly red and swollen...


    Kaleb intentionally made fun of Keh while applying medicine to him.


    "As you get older and older, you should try to hold back your bad temper!"


    Keh''s suppressed anger came back again, "I still feel like it''s not enough! This bastard, I''ll beat him


    to death!"


    The two were talking when there was amotion at the door.


    Kaleb went over to take a look and in a moment, he led someone in. It was Eloise.


    Kaleb was very witty and went out on her own.


    Eloise took a few steps forward, afraid to approach.


    Keh took out a cigarette with one hand, lowered his head and took a puff before asking softly,


    "Why are you here?"


    She raised the ointment on her hand and said, "I''m here help you apply the medicine!"


    Actually, Keh had already applied the medicine, but he didn''t mind applying it again.


    On the narrow sofa, she sat next to him, holding one of his hands and carefully applying medicine to


    him. Keh slowly smoked a cigarette and looked down at her...


    Her small face was bright and white and her eyshes were very long in her sockets.


    Keh asked as if nothing had happened, "That boy is good, why aren''t you in a rtionship?"


    She was stunned for a moment before she understood what he was saying.


    She breathed in lightly and said, ''I don''t really like him!''


    As she spoke, she released his hand and said in a voice as low as a kitten, "I''ve wrapped it up!"


    She intended to leave but her body was caught.


    She was forced to sit back beside him. Not knowing if it was her illusion, she felt so close to him that


    she could smell the faint smell of tobo on him.


    Keh''s gaze was slightly more meaningful.


    His beautiful fingers caressed her lips.


    She trembled uncontrobly and helplessly called him Uncle Ryan...N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Keh lowered his head and whispered softly, his forehead against hers, "What are you doing here?


    Is it to atone for your brother, or are you unable to control your own thoughts, or do you like a man who


    is more than ten years older than you? Tell me, what do you want from me?"


    He asked bluntly, and she felt ashamed.


    She trembled and couldn''t answer, but what Keh wanted was not her answer either.


    He kissed her.


    Just likest time, he gently pressed her onto his chest, gently hold her lips to rx her and then gently


    dive into to taste her taste deeply, shallowly, back and forth.


    She was very uneasy and wanted to struggle.


    But her slender waist was held by him, andter, she was held to hisp.


    He kissed her so gently and forcefully, leaving her mind nk. She could only tightly embrace his neck,


    butter she couldn''t help but support herself with his shoulder and her arms slid to his back to hug


    him...


    She whole body almost melted from his kiss that she didn''t know how she went out.


    She didn''t know why he treated her like this.


    From then on, she avoided him.


    asionally, when they met in the hospital, she pretended not to notice him and didn''t greet him as


    Uncle Ryan, just turned around and ran away.


    Keh looked at her back with a thoughtful expression on his face.


    Kaleb deliberately said, "You must have bullied her!"


    Keh put his hands in his pants pocket and remembered the kiss that day. The little one nestled in


    his arms like a kitten, probably angry that she took a gentle bite on his chest.


    But she bit the wrong ce, which made him quite ufortable.


    Keh knew he longed for her, and when dealing with Madelyn''s affairs, he couldn''t help but think


    about him and her.


    He was wondering if it was possible.


    He was among countless impossibilities, wanting to see if he could find a possible path.


    But Keh had not found his way yet,


    Benjamin made a major decision. He secretly sent Everest to theboratory and also wanted to let go


    of Madelyn.


    Keh gave him two ps.


    Then, he couldn''t bear to make another move. He knew that such a decision was also very difficult for


    Benjamin...


    On the night Everest was sent away, Keh drank a lot of wine that even Kaleb couldn''t stop him.


    Finally, he found Eloise and begged her to persuade him, "Mr. Ryan has an important meeting


    tomorrow morning. If he doesn''t stop now, he will lose hisposure tomorrow!"


    He begged for quite a while before Eloise finally agreed.


    Kaleb pushed the door open for her, but instead of entering, he whispered, "I''ll stay at the door!"


    In the small room, it was quiet and dark.


    She adapted for a while before she could see clearly inside. Keh leaned against the sofa and


    ced several bottles of red wine in front of him. He probably heard footsteps and looked up at her,


    and then poured himself another ss.


    "Stop drinking!"


    She stepped forward and held his hand, preventing him from touching it again.


    Keh looked at her quietly, his eyes was covered in bloodstains. It took him a long time to say, "Get


    out!"


    Eloise refused.


    She knelt on the carpet and collected all the wine bottles.


    She did this in a slightly childish way, like a child ying house.


    Even after drinking, Keh knew that she was not a child anymore. Not only was she not a child, but


    she was also a mature woman...


    He gently pulled her over and looked at her carefully.


    During this difficult time, in fact, he and she only had each other.


    Keh''s voice was slightly hoarse, "Eloise, let''s give it a try!"


    Through being drunk, hepromised. He was like all ordinary men in the world who couldn''t resist


    the temptation and wanted to dote on his girl. At this moment, he was even thinking that if they had an


    affair, everything could not be changed and he had to take responsibility for her. No matter how difficult


    it was, they had to go down together.


    Eloise did not hear his words clearly.


    But he had already kissed her lips.


    She was kissed and pinned on the sofa by him. With the mellow aroma of red wine between his lips


    and teeth, she was addicted.


    She called him Uncle Ryan in fear...


    Keh gently touched her face and kept looking at her.


    She trembled uncontrobly, knowing what he wanted. Because at this moment, his gaze at her was


    He had sex with her on the sofa.


    Gentle yet restrained.


    But both of was in a mess, and he couldn''t control himself after drinking, feeling that it was far from


    enough.


    Later, she was carried by him to the small bed in thepartment, which was made of steel wire.


    Once there was a slight movement, it would have a rattling sound.


    Keh moved fiercely, shaking the spring steel wire bed like a boat in the storm for half of the night.


    Mixed with her uncontroble low hum, the bed constantly trembled...


    She had been in rtionships before, but she was not very good at sex.


    Keh was very domineering in sex, and he didn''t need her to be good at it.


    Outside, Kaleb naturally heard the noise and he knew what it was, so he asked the bodyguards to step


    back and stayed at the door himself for most of the night...


    Early in the morning, she woke up in his arms.


    There was some pain in her body, but thefort won over it, making her not want to move at all.


    "You''re awake? "A male hoarse voice came from above.


    Eloise dared not speak out.


    Keh didn''t actually want to get up. He rarely had sex without restraint, especially with a lot of


    nonsense waiting for him. He grabbed the watch on the bedside and check the time.


    He needed to get up in half an hour. There were some words he wanted to tell her now.


    But before he could speak,


    Eloise opened her mouth first, with a light and trembling voice: "Mr. Ryan, don''t worry,st night was


    just a one night stand."


    Mr. Ryan...


    One night stand...


    Kehughed in his exasperation, tugging at her ear and asking, "Who called Uncle Ryan all night


    takes advantage of me like this, Mr. Ryan will have to be busy and die in women''s arms sooner or


    He didn''t speak in a gentle way, and her eyes were a bit red.


    Keh actually felt uneasy deep down. He loved her dearly, but because of Madelyn''s situation, he


    couldn''t be happy.


    Finally, he hugged her and gently said a few words: "Did you receive the rabbit? Do you like it?"


    Eloise''s eyes turned red and she obediently grunted assent, "I like it!"


    Keh didn''t speak again, just hugged her.


    It took a long time before he stick to her ear and say, "As long as you like it!"


    He started getting dressed and said to her, "You can have more sleep! I''ll be back at noon..."


    He knew how to flirt with women.


    But at this moment, he was not so effortless, his little girl was different.


    He dressed neatly and sat by the bed, pinching her face.


    "I have to go now! Otherwise I''ll bete for the meeting. Take a look at your Uncle Ryan''s neck. Did the


    little wild cat scratch a few marks on it?"


    Eloise wrapped herself in the quilt and looked at him with tears in her eyes.


    They had sex.


    But the key was that he didn''t say anything, and she didn''t dare to ask him for a future because at such


    a time, it was not suitable...


    She suffered a lot and didn''t wait for him toe back.


    She avoided him and deliberately didn''t see him, but at night she would always be unable to sleep


    because of him.


    Keh was very busy...


    Four dayster, she received his call. He had a gentle and tired voice, saying, "I''m going back to Vadiff


    tomorrow. Can we meet?"


    When he told her this, she realized how much she hoped.


    Their identity between them destined her not to dare to demand anything from him.


    She liked him in an extremely humble way...


    Finally, they met at a private restaurant. Kaleb picked her up at the door to enter a private box.


    The vast box was only upied by Keh.


    He was wearing a light blue shirt and ck pants.


    The navy blue coat was casually taken off and ced on the back of the chair, while he was reading a


    document.


    Kaleb opened the door and said with a smile, "Miss Eloise hase!"


    He remained considerate outside, guarding for the two.


    Eloise leaned her back against the door and looked at Keh nkly. Dating this old man was a bit


    troublesome, because she never knew what he was thinking


    Keh put down the document in his hand and stared at her. After a long time, he smiled and said,


    "What are you doing there? I don''t need a little doorkeeper here. Come to me, my good girl."


    Recognizing the meaning of his words, Eloise couldn''t help but judge him in her heart.


    He still treated her like a child!


    But she couldn''t help but yearn, moved over and sat next to him.


    Keh personally poured her a cup of coffee, and when he put it down, he asked her in a gentle tone,


    "Does it still hurt there?"

 Chapter 324 Tonight, Stay in My Room 1

    Chapter 324 Tonight, Stay in My Room 1


    Chapter 324 Tonight, Stay in My Room 1


    Eloise''s face suddenly turned red.


    ''It''s been several days now, howe it still hurts?''


    Keh smiled a smile of dry amusement.


    That night, he might have been too rude. She kept saying that it hurt... The little girls were always more


    delicate.


    At this moment, the waiter pushed the door in and served the dishes one after another.


    Although there were only two people, the table was fully spread with food. Eloise couldn''t help but say,


    "We can''t finish these and we will waste it."


    Keh gave her a flickering smile, "You are about to save me money now?"


    He served her dishes and said airily, "When you learn to save your Uncle Ryan''s effort, that''s the true


    consideration."


    Eloise''s face turned even redder, he was really shameless!


    Keh looked at her expression and lightly skipped it.


    He specially filled her with a bowl of chicken soup and spoke softly, "This kind of free-range chicken is


    suitable for women to nourish."


    She took soup silently.


    Anyway, she was a bit restrained.


    She didn''t know how he was going to arrange for her...


    After the meal, Keh fed his little girl full, and in the end, he looked at her with satisfaction. Then he


    took out something from his briefcase.


    It was a protective talisman.


    Keh gently helped her wear it and ced it in her cor with a meaningful gaze. "When I bought


    this Madelyn, I bought you one. It''s not allowed to be taken off this month, got it?"


    Eloise couldn''t help but pull it out and gently touched it.


    Keh touched her small head and whispered, "I hope you and Madelyn are both safe and sound."


    Eloise whispered, "I want to give it to Little Everest."


    The person who needed the bless most was Everest.


    Upon hearing this, Keh felt a bit sad. He didn''t know if the child was safe or not. Anyway, Benjamin


    was now a bit crazy and must save Everest regardless of the cost. That crazy guy didn''t care about


    transforming Little Everest into an alien.


    Keh took out a secondary card from his wallet and ced it in her palm.


    Eloise was stunned.


    ''What... does he mean?''


    She stammered and asked, ''We... we...''


    Keh didn''t give a direct answer, he just said gently, "It''s my secondary card, you can buy anything


    you want!"


    She didn''t know whether tough or to cry.


    He should go now, but he couldn''t rest assured, so he coaxed her: "I''lle over to see you in a while!


    Eloise, take good care of Madelyn for me..."


    She nodded obediently.


    But when he got up, she couldn''t help but grab his hem and her voice trembled a little: "Keh!"


    He looked at her gently.


    Eloise held the Centurion Card with an uneasy expression and mustered courage before asking, "What


    does this mean?"


    Keh smiled.


    He asked her back, "What do you think it means?"


    Her lips trembled lightly and said, "I don''t know! Keh, please make it clear."


    Keh gently hugged her and ced her little head between his waist and abdomen. Compared to


    him, she was so young that he couldn''t help but treat her like a child. It took him a long time to say,


    "Isn''t it natural for a boyfriend to spend money on his girlfriend?"


    Eloise''s lips trembled even more fiercely.


    She hugged his waist tightly, her voice mixed with tears and said, "Can your girlfriend ask you not to


    mess around outside? Can she ask you, just love her alone?"


    She didn''t dare to think about the future, but he said they were in a rtionship, at least it should a


    pure one.


    No other people should get involved.


    Keh looked down at his little girl, who also happened to look up.


    He took the opportunity to kiss her.


    He had to catch a ne soon and didn''t have much time to be dote on her. So he only kissed her lightly


    for a while before gently saying, "Since I met you, there has been no one else."


    She hugged his waist and her face quietly turned red.


    She rememberedst time when she was jealous.


    Keh didn''t make fun of her. His little girl liked him so much, how could heugh at her.


    He touched her face and whispered, "You''re not allowed to go out with anyone else. If you see


    someone confess to you again, I''ll break your leg


    She gave a obedient hum and looked at him reluctantly.


    Keh lowered his head and kissed her, muttering, "I''m leaving!"


    Eloise followed his movements and got up, tidied up his shirt and handed him his briefcase. Keh


    really wanted to put her in the briefcase and take her with him.


    Before leaving, he whispered, "I will pick Madelyn back to Vadiff in a few days. You cane with me."


    She was a bit surprised.


    Her brother and Madelyn''s future was unknown. Was it proper for her to go to Vadiff?


    Keh remembered the incident when his mother called her "Lucy"st time and smiled, "It''s okay,


    Uncle Ryan will always be on your side!"


    After being wistful and reluctant for a long time, he still left.


    Kaleb was having meal in another private box and immediately approached when Keh came out,


    jokingly saying, "Mr. Ryan seems to be in a good mood!"


    "There''s a lot of things going on, how could I be in a good mood!"


    But as he spoke, he couldn''t help but smile lightly.


    He thought that Eloise was his happy little pill.


    ...


    In the box, Eloise repeatedly looked at the card he gave: ''A boyfriend gave it to his girlfriend!''!


    And she carefully smelled the talisman. It must have some Uncle Ryan''s smell left. When he took it out


    from his pants pocket, it was still warm.


    As she smelled and smelled, her face quietly turned red.


    Somehow, she remembered that night.


    She really couldn''t tell, he was so much older than her but he was still so powerful in sexual aspect.


    He was a bit rude, but she had several climaxes a night.


    She pinched her own thigh again, what was she thinking? How could she think of such things at day!


    No way,


    She should think more about the ''boyfriend and girlfriend''.


    *


    Half a monthter, Madelyn and Benjamin divorced.


    At this moment, it had been a full month since Madelyn gave birth to Everest. Afterpleting the


    procedures, Keh came to pick up Madelyn from Vadiff and conveniently brought his little girl.


    Madelyn was immersed in pain and didn''t think much.


    At the Ryans'' mansion in Vadiff, Athena felt heartbroken when she looked at Madelyn. She hugged her


    obedient granddaughter and scolded Benjamin fiercely.


    Eloise was quite embarrassed.


    Keh nced at her and then said to the butler, "Ms. Green will live in the same room as before.


    Please tidy up the guest room across on the east and prepare it for Miss Eloise."


    The butler was taken aback.


    The guest room across on the east? Wasn''t that one across Mr. Ryan''s bedroom?


    He hesitated for a moment and said, "Would that bother you?"


    Keh gently waved his hand and said, "Do as I say!"


    The butler left, and at this moment, Athena came through her sadness and whispered to Keh, "Is


    this girl called Lucy?"


    Despite her old age, thest time her son called "Lucy", she caught it very clearly.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    She was called Lucy.


    Keh couldn''tugh or cry, but at the same time, his face was a bit red. For a person of his age,


    dating with such a little girl would not only discredit him but also made him beughed at by others.


    They should consider their identity and status.


    Keh responded to his mother casually and calmly, avoiding addressing the real problem, "Mom,


    you''re wrong. This is Ben''s sister Eloise, not Lucy!"


    Athena looked at her son and believed it.


    He sounded right. Ben''s sister was about the same age as Madelyn. How could it be possible for


    Keh to be so heartless and rob the cradle.


    But she was somewhat disappointed.


    Eloise was such a beautiful girl. She was so chubby and elegant that Athena knew her could give birth


    to a son at a nce.


    The trip was strenuous and after the meal, everyone returned to their room to rest.


    Eloise would stay here for a week.


    She didn''t bring much clothes, only three or four sets in total. At this moment, she was packing up and


    preparing to visit her sister-inwter.


    Someone came in silently and locked the door.


    Her slender waist was hugged, and then the man''s cold breath drifted around her neck and his kiss


    making her feel numb. She couldn''t help but call out Uncle Ryan.


    Keh touched her slender waist.


    After kissing and touching her like this for a long time, she was picked up and ced on the big bed.


    She was a bit scared, after all, this was the Ryans'' mansion.


    Was he going to have sex with her here?


    She was somewhat afraid, after all, their rtionship had just started. Thinking about it carefully, they


    didn''t get really timid and close before having sex. What''s more... did he have condom? Would she


    identally get pregnant?


    Keh supported himself with one hand and began to unbutton her with the other.


    Adult men and women''s bodies were burning with desire, and after they fell in love with each other,


    they had been suppressed the desire for most of the year.


    At this moment, he seemed a bit impatient...

    Chapter 325 Tonight, Stay in My Room 2


    When she wake up, it was already at dusk.


    The autumn sunset sprinkled ayer of light gold color on the bed through the french window.


    Keh had long been awake and watched her open her eyes. He leaned over and kissed her gently,


    saying, "You can sleep a little longer, I''ll call you at dinner time!"


    He got up and got dressed while talking.


    He had a lot of things to do and Kaleb had been waiting for him in the study for a long time. But he still


    couldn''t bear to leave her, afraid that she might wake up feeling ufortable.


    He cherished his little girl, even if he couldn''t always apany her, he tried his best to do what he


    should.


    Eloise was a bit shy.


    She pulled the quilt and leaned against the pillow to stare at him.


    Keh put on his clothes, bent down to kiss her, and then smiled lightly.


    After he left, she dared not sleep again.


    Instead, she got up and check on Madelyn and then went to chat with Athena for a while. Athena was


    an open-minded olddy who didn''t take offense at her. In addition, since there were few girls in the


    Ryan family, she cherished Eloise.


    In the evening, when Keh finished his work and returned, he saw his little girl apanying his


    mother in picking vegetables.


    Athena was muttering, "This is my own nt and there are no pesticides on it."


    He brushed aside the vines above his head and walked over, deliberately teasing, "The olddy is so


    careful with these environmentally friendly things in her daily life and almost never allows others to eat


    them."


    Athena sneered.


    She said to the little girl, "Don''t believe in your Uncle Ryan''s nonsense! If he''s serious, he would bring


    his "Lucy" home. At that time, I''ll dig out everything in the field."


    "Lucy?" Eloise was clearly stunned.


    So Athena airily told her about the Keh''s drunken dream talk.


    Eloise understood and blushed.


    Keh looked at her quietly, gave a flickering smile, making her even more ufortable. But she


    felt sweet deep down. It turned out that Uncle Ryan should call her name when he was drunk.


    It was getting darker and darker.


    The olddy personally cooked, surrounded by the little girl. Keh, who rarely touched the


    housework, actually stayed in the kitchen


    After dinner, they returned to their room all the way.


    At the door, Keh led her into his bedroom.


    Keh''s bedroom had argeyout, and when they entered, there was a somewhat magnificent


    atmosphere. The apanying study had an antique vor. And near the window, there was a ce


    for coffee.


    Eloise''s expression was stunned.


    Keh scratched her little nose and said, "Are you stunned?"


    She said with some embarrassment, "I never thought before that my boyfriend''s room would be like


    this..."


    She spoke very tactfully.


    Actually, it meant she thought he was old and always acted old school.


    How could Keh not notice it? He smiled and made coffee with great elegance. He kindly handed


    her a cup.


    When she picked it up, he said calmly, "Shall we continue tonight?"


    Eloise suddenly disappointed.


    He was so shameless!


    She was much younger than him and was also very obedient. She walked to his back and gently


    hugged him, calling him Uncle Ryan. Keh held her little hand with one hand and asked her to drink


    the coffee.


    In fact, he had a lot of official duties and rarely had leisure in the afternoon. At this time, there was no


    time for mischief.


    Eloise didn''tin either.


    He was working in the study, and she was obediently apanying him on the side...


    asionally, Keh looked up and instructed her to take something, and his little girl would happily


    run back and forth for him.


    He was busy until midnight.


    Finally, he had time to press his little girl onto the bed, torturing and making herfortable.


    Eloise thought he was a beast because he promised not to have sex...


    Just as both of them were feeling a little turned on, someone knocked the door and it was Athena''s


    voice, "Keh, have you slept yet? I bring you some midnight snack!"


    The door lock was already turning.


    The person in bed was slightly stiff.


    Eloise opened her eyes wide and said in a low voice, "What should I do?"


    Keh quickly tucked her into the quilt, kicked her slippers under the bed, and sat down against the


    bed, looking ready to sleep.


    Athena had already entered and as soon as she saw her son''s appearance, she said, "Are you ready


    to sleep?"


    Keh smiled lightly and said, "Yes! I''m so busy today!"


    Athena sat down with a bang.


    She had a lot of leisure tonight to talk with her son, which was really a suffer for Eloise. She was almost


    suffocated in the nket and wanted to move, but Keh used his legs to hold her head and


    extended his hand into the nket, touching her like a petting a dog.


    Athena finally left.


    When the door closed, Eloise crawled out of the quilt, tears streaming down her cheeks.


    "Uncle Ryan, I can''t breathe anymore!"


    Keh gently dragged her out and ced her in his arms to carefully look at her. After a long time, he


    gently asked, "Do you like this ce?"


    Eloise blushed.


    How could she like there!


    Keh didn''t continue to ask. He took the night snack sent by his mother and shared it with her.


    After finishing a bowl of it, she didn''t feel enough and asked for more.


    Keh pinched her face and said, "So I''ll ask my mom to get up and make another one for her little


    daughter-inw?"


    He was really so detestable that she jumped onto him and beat him.


    After a longmotion, she hugged his neck and still cried out for hunger... Keh kissed her and


    said, "I''ve never seen anyone more mischievous than you! Uncle Ryan will make it for you!"


    "Can you make it? "She hugged him obediently.


    Keh smiled, put on his shoes and went out. Unexpectedly, he met his mom in the kitchen.


    The olddy was quite surprised to see her son.


    Keh lit a cigarette and opened the refrigerator to look for something: "I''m not full, I want to get


    some more night snacks!"


    Athena was not willing to let her son make this on his own.


    She took dumplings out of the refrigerator and cooked them carefully while scolding her son: "You are


    not young, and you should control yourself when ites night snacks. It''s time to take care of your


    figure or how can you find your wife?"


    Keh was speechless.


    The water boiled, and Athena filled it in a small bowl and carefully ced a handful of coriander.


    She heard that girls nowadays liked to eat this!


    Keh held the bowl and left. On the way, he smiled.


    He didn''t eat coriander, but Athena put it on. It seemed that his mom was so clever.


    ...


    Romantic days were always sweet like honey.


    Their rtionship had not yet been exposed and Keh was nning to keep her here for the


    Thanksgiving Day and send her back to Gredax after that.


    As for the future, they could n slowly.


    After Eloise stayed in the Ryan''s Mansion for two or three days, she wanted to go out and buy some


    gifts for Madelyn and Athena. She also heard that the small cakes in Vadiff were very famous.


    Keh had a special identity. When she was shopping, Kaleb apanied her while he sits in the


    car reading documents.


    Eloise just didn''t expect to meet acquaintances on the street.


    Ximena.


    She was Keh''s old colleague was not of low status. Just after finishing dinner, she saw Keh''s


    car parked on the roadside. Ximena knew that Keh''s future status was definitely far ahead of her


    and she attached great importance to her friendship with him.


    She walked over and knocked on the car window.


    Keh got off the car.


    Ximena smiled and greeted, "It looks like your car from afar, I didn''t expect it is actually yours!"


    Keh was about to say something when his little girl came running over with several bags, her face


    was red and she was calling him Uncle Ryan.


    Ximena couldn''t help but take a few more nces.


    The little girl was really good-looking. She happened to have a son, so she coughed softly and said,


    "Keh, this is..."


    Keh didn''t want his colleagues to know about his private affairs and said with a smile, "A junior in


    my family."


    A junior...


    Eloise didn''t know why her heart lost a beat and she felt a bit ufortable. So, he can''t introduce her


    as a girlfriend in his territory?


    Her thoughts were shown all on her face.


    On the way back to the car, Keh coaxed her a bit, but he was already thinking about whether to


    send her back to Gredax first. After all, due to his identity, he couldn''t be with her openly until the


    rtionship was confirmed. If there were any changes, it would have a great impact on Eloise.


    He had always been inconspicuous with his personal life.


    But Eloise guessed his thoughts. When she slept at night, shey soft in his arms and whispered, "I


    won''t go out! Can you please don''t take me back to Gredax?"


    Keh lowered his head and looked at her silently.


    Eloise hugged his neck and whispered, "I like to stay here


    The main point was, they had rare opportunities to get along.


    He was not always able to go to Gredax. They had known each other for over a year, but they had only


    been able to be together for a few days.


    Keh''s heart softened.


    He lowered his head, searched for her lips and kissed her.


    His slender hand gently pulled open her bathrobe under the quilt, and the delicate touch immediately


    bursted the man''s desire... She didn''t know if it was her illusion that, tonight, he was a bit aggressive.


    After the end, she clung to him softly.


    The sweat slowly cooled down...


    Keh gently patted her body, as if treating a baby gently.


    They were all reluctant to sleep.


    She raised her hand to touch his facial features and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Ryan, why haven''t


    you got married yet?"


    Keh smiled lightly and said, "What do you think?"


    After speaking, he pulled her into his arms...


    She pressed against his heart, her heart beating a bit fast, and said shamelessly, "I think you''re waiting


    for me to grow up! When I grow up, you''ll get married with me!"


    She mentioned marriage several times. It seemed like she really wanted to.


    Keh suddenly became a bit excited. He reached into the quilt and flirting with her while muttering,


    "Let me see if you''ve grown up, don''t lie to Uncle Ryan!"


    When he was in high spirits, he was simply a civic scumbag.


    Eloise was carried onto him and he yed her body slowly for a long time. She cried and thought about


    getting down, but he refused and bullied her in various ways.


    ...


    Everest''s situation were uncertain, and their rtionship was still secretive.


    After Thanksgiving, Eloise was going back.


    The night before leaving, she was in tears.


    Keh touched her head and said, "Kiddo, don''t worry about these things!"


    But he himself was also a bit sad and he wanted her to be with him all the time.


    With her here, the air in the house was much happier.


    In the past, Athena always felt not well. Now, every day, she carried a basket to the vegetable market


    with her family servants and bought the dishes that the little girl liked. Keh knew that his mother


    had noticed their rtionship, but she didn''t mention it.


    That night, he sat in his study for a long time.


    He thought about the future, about the promise he gave to his little girl him for a lifetime.


    Athena brought coffee and sat down for a while, as if she wanted to ask something, but in the end she


    didn''t speak. She was convinced that the little girl who could be brought home by her son was


    recognized by his son.


    She also quite liked his little girl.


    Lucy, was actually Eloise!


    Athena thought, perhaps his son was about to get married soon. The two of them were slightly different


    in age and they were not in the same generation but it was eptable if her son liked her.


    Finally, Athena only said one sentence: "It''s great!"


    Keh thought on it repeatedly and smiled lightly. His mom was really interesting!


    He thought that when Everest''s situation became more stable, he would propose marriage to the rk


    family.


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    He wanted to keep the little girl by his side and have her apany him and his mom. Every day


    when he came back from work, he could see the warm lights and the scene that she picks vegetables


    with Athena.


    He was not young anymore, maybe they could have children after marriage...

 Chapter 326: He Bought Their Home in Gredax 1

    Chapter 326: He Bought Their Home in Gredax 1


    Chapter 326: He Bought Their Home in Gredax 1


    Eloise returned to Gredax.


    She thought they wouldn''t be able to meet for a long time, but after only a week, Keh came over.


    That night, she received his call: "Come to the door!"


    What!


    Her heart was beating a bit fast. ''Is he in Gredax?''


    She held her phone and couldn''t bear to hang up. She quickly changed into a dress and ran


    downstairs. Downstairs, Alexander was still awake, reading the newspaper. Seeing her little daughter,


    he casually asked, "It''s sote, you are still going out?"


    "Chloe asked me to have a night snack." She replied and ran out.


    Alexander shook his head, this child was too willful!


    On the side of the rks'' mansion, a ck Lotus Car was parked.


    Keh leaned against the car door in ck and smoked, his body blending with the night. When he


    saw Eloise running out, he gently opened his arms. Eloise naturally threw herself in. Shey on his


    shoulder and smelled the pleasant smell of him.


    After a while, she asked like a spoiled child, "You almost burned me!"


    Keh smiled and pinched out the cigarette, then lowered his head and kissed her lips.


    She was a bit afraid, after all, she was at her own doorstep.


    Obviously, Keh was also hesitant. He only kissed her for a while before stuffing her into the car.


    Eloise slowly fastened her seat belt, her eyes bright as she said, "Where are we going?"


    She actually wanted to ask if they were going to the hotel, but asking like this seemed too proactive


    and sounded like she couldn''t wait to think about it.


    Keh tilted his head to look at her.


    They hadn''t seen you for a week. He missed her so much that he squeezed this time today.


    He held her hand and his voice was slightly hoarse, "You ''ll know when you get there!"


    Eloise agreed obediently.


    The ck sports car sped down the road for about an hour and stopped at the foot of a high-end


    apartment building on Rasta Road.


    This ce was quite famous for its high housing prices and excellent privacy.


    It was said that the affordable ones were all business leaders and celebrities.


    Keh took her upstairs.


    Pushing open the door, it was an apartment of about 120 square meters with luxurious decoration. At


    this moment, a ck film was ying in the hall and the ck singing style was quite stylish.


    Eloise took off her coat and looked around.


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Keh let her watch as he went to the kitchen to prepare milk for her.


    After reading, she went to the kitchen and hugged his waist from behind, her voice a little uneasy:


    "Keh, how is here defined?"


    She was afraid that she would be his mistress.


    Even if he was not married, a woman who was raised outside secretly would be called a mistress.


    Keh whispered, "Drink the milk."


    She shook her head and rarely stubbornly demanded an exnation from him.


    Keh touched her hand and said in a slightly awkward voice, "Eloise, I can''t give you a legitimate


    marriage at the moment, even walking together on the street in fairness would be impossible. We can''t


    always meet at the hotel. That''s too insulting for you. I know what you think of this ce, but Eloise,


    I''ve never thought of you this way... You can treat this ce as our home, treat me as your husband,


    and I''m the Uncle Ryan of your own here."


    This was the best he can give now.


    A private ce. And he would try his best toe over and apany her.


    When Everest''s situation stabilized, their rtionship could be open and aboveboard.


    After he finished speaking, Eloise felt a bit embarrassed.


    Her mood waspletely different, with some shyness and some joy.


    This was the home that Uncle Ryan gave her.


    Keh knew that the little girl had already been sessfully coaxed and he said softly, "I also kept


    two rabbits in the bedroom. Kaleb asked someone to queue up to buy them. Do you like them?"


    She relied more or less on him and said words of love, "I like you more!"


    Keh dragged her over from behind and kissed her in his arms. After kissing her for a while, she


    became hungry and wanted to eat some night snack. He patted her buttocks and said, "Even if you can


    eat so much, you are still so bony."


    In fact, she was born extremely well, with a slender waist, but the area where there should be fat was


    plump.


    Keh liked it very much.


    He willingly cooked her a night snack, and she circled around beside him, finally asking why Kaleb was


    not there.


    "Do you want him to always be there?"


    As Keh spoke, he smiled and said, "When we were having sex, you hope he would be here too?"


    Eloise was about to cry in anger.


    He was really shameless, bullying others with the protection of his old age.


    After teasing her a while, Keh took the little girl to the kitchen counter and asked her to sit and


    watch him make dumplings.


    A man who never did household chores now felt extremely happy being with her and doing this simple


    thing, which was much more interesting than ying in a club or listening to Violet sing songs.


    He rememberedst time Eloise asked him why he didn''t get married.


    He thought that it was not because of busyness nor because of status.


    But before her, he had not met the person who really wanted to settle down with.


    Keh used to think that even if he got married, his wife would be a very versatile and capable


    woman, but when fate came, that person was much worse than he thought and she even knew


    nothing.


    All she could do was pestering him and call him Uncle Ryan.


    She could only ask like a spoiled kid and ignore him if she was not happy!


    But he just liked this kind of girl. There was no reason at all!


    Keh loved Eloise very much. He not only treated her as his little wife, but also treated her as a


    child. Apart from asionally taking advantage of her in terms of words, he always gave her a lot of


    favor.


    After finishing the night snack, she noticed that he was very tired and took the initiative to wash the


    dishes.


    Keh refused.


    He was much older than her and consciously needed to make up for it in other aspects. In this way, he


    doted on her very much. He felt that he would never let her live worse than living in the rk family. If


    so, he was definitely an ipetent husband.


    It only took one night.


    Eloise regarded this ce as a home.


    But she didn''te home at night and had no reason to excuse herself in front of her parents. In the


    end, it was Chloe who helped her out.


    Late at night, she finished calling and returned to her bedroom.


    Keh had already taken a shower and leaned against the bedside in his bathrobe, as if asleep.


    Eloise looked at his exhausted look and felt a little heartbroken. She didn''t want to wake him up and


    was about to lie down next to him, but as soon as shey down, he woke up and gently grabbed him in


    her arms.


    Keh lightly touched her slender waist and said, "Have you finished making the phone call?"


    She grunted assent.


    Keh drew her closer again, then lowered his head and approached her, They were so close that


    they could hear the rapid breath between them, which was hot and tempting.


    His voice was a bit hoarse, "How about one more time"


    As he spoke, he reached out and opened the bedside table, taking a small box and cing it next to


    the pillow.


    The next second, he pressed her on the pillow and kissed her.


    Eloise really loved him. She did want to, but she could see that he was very tired and exhausted... She


    couldn''t bear him to put in any more effort, so she hugged his waist and lied, "My period started!"


    Keh was stunned.


    Then he lowered his tall nose and gently rubbed it against her belly. After a while, heughed.


    There was no smell at all.


    Eloise''s face turned slightly red and she tugged at his hair, whispering, "Let''s just hold onto each other


    and talk! We don''t necessarily have to do that."


    Keh did not force her.


    When he came back to hold her, he pretended toin, "Don''t pull my hair again in the future. If I


    go bald, Uncle Ryan won''t look good!"


    After all, he always cared about his age.


    Eloise smiled lightly and hugged his waist, asking softly, "How long can you stay?"


    Keh touched her head and said, "I have to leave tomorrow afternoon!"


    Tomorrow will be another day of meetings.


    They only had one night to stay with each other, so he cherished it immensely.


    She was somewhat disappointed.


    But she was considerate of him, and she could feel Keh''s cherish for her. He had already given her


    everything he could. She knew that all his free time was spent on her.


    When she was about to fall asleep, she buried her little face in his neck.


    Uncle Ryan


    Actually, he was already acting a role of a husband...


    Before dawn, Keh woke up. He waked her up and had twice sex with her.


    When it finished, Eloise fell asleep tired.


    However, Keh took a shower, full of energy. He cooked breakfast for her and easily prepared


    lunch. She just needed to heat it up when she need to have lunch.


    After finishing everything, he walked into the bedroom and sat by the bed.


    She was still sleeping.


    Keh pinched her face and spoke softly in a low voice, "I''ll apany you to dinner tonight, and


    then go back to Vadiff. You can go back first if you want."


    She grunted assent, half in sleep.


    Keh gently kissed her again before leaving.


    When getting into the car, Kaleb deliberately joked, "Are you still so happy about cooking and washing


    for the little girl?"


    Keh patted his pants straight and pretended not to care, saying, "The little girl is just having a


    tantrum and I was just coxing her. There''s nothing to be happy about."


    Kaleb still smiled.


    He was truly happy for Mr. Ryan. In his early 40s, he finally met a little girl he liked. How could this be


    an unhappy news?


    Kaleb was making a fuss to ask for his souvenir.


    After a moment of thought, Keh generously allocated a house in Vadiff to him, it was located where


    many people dared not even think about.


    As for the driver, Keh arranged work for his child.


    These actions were his protection to Eloise.


    Only when the people around him were tight-lipped could she be safe...

    Chapter 327: He Bought Their Home in Gredax 2


    It was nearly noon when Eloise woke up.


    Slowly opening her eyes, she found here was the home Uncle Ryan gave her.


    She blinked lightly, held the rabbit by her pillow in her arms and rolled several times. She really liked


    Uncle Ryan.


    When she got up, he had made her breakfast.


    Fruits were all washed.


    He treated her as a child, doting on her and with his identity as Keh, it was sweet for any woman.


    Eloise wanted to cook him a dinner, but she couldn''t cook. After cooking for a long time, even the rice


    was burnt and could only be poured out.


    Finally, she ordered takeout.


    At 4 pm, Keh returned from a meeting.


    He looked at the dining table, took off his coat and casually threw it on the sofa,ughing at her: "You


    carefully ordered a table of takeout for your beloved Uncle Ryan!"


    His little girl reached out her hand. She cut a little skin off her finger when she cut the vegetables.


    Her tears welled up.


    Keh''s heart suddenly softened and scolded her, "Little fool!"


    He bandaged her and had dinner together with her.


    After dinner, he sat quietly smoking on the sofa, with a hint of self admiration. Coupled with his elegant


    and beautiful appearance, his sitting there was like an oil painting.


    He had a mind.


    At today''s meeting, he refused an appointment.


    It was about a research and development of a new type of metal, which could be used in aviation and


    aerospace, and inrger cases, it could be used in various stealth fighter ne. If sessful, it could


    elerate this domestic technology for 30 years.


    With sufficient funds and a strong voice, many people flock to it.


    After four years of development, once he was sessful, his future would be bright!


    Keh refused and rmended a younger generation.


    He didn''t regret it, even though he lived for these things in the first half of his life. Now it was different.


    He had Eloise and wanted to give her a home...


    Eloise snuggled up to his side.


    Keh pinched out his cigarette and red at her, "Will you cook next time?"


    She crouched down and crawled into his arms, whispering that she wanted to learn how to cook for


    Uncle Ryan.


    Keh smiled lightly.


    At this moment, although he was feeling a bit mncholy, he was more willing to listen to her talk about


    family matters.


    Eloise had been with him for a while, and he finally didn''t feel ashamed of his behavior. Her small face


    was pressed against his sturdy belly. She yed with his shirt buttons and whispered, "A few days ago,


    a magazine asked me to take a cover!"


    She showed the number with a gesture, "Paid!"


    Keh lowered his head and pinched her face, praising her, "My Eloise is so capable! Isn''t this


    opportunity something that everyone can have, is it?"


    She was naturally filled with joy and glowed.


    But Keh had some considerations, she would to be his wife and was not suitable for public disy!


    So he praised quietly first and then briefly raised some questions.


    The little girl recoiled and said, "Otherwise, I won''t go!"


    She didn''t need money, but she just pesters Uncle Ryan to say nice things.


    "So you will feed me?"


    Keh kissed her little head and said, "Yes! Uncle Ryan will raise you all along."


    ...


    So they lived a married life in that luxurious apartment.


    Keh came almost every week.


    He cooked for her and she gave her Uncle Ryan massages, and even crawled into his arms at night in


    his shirt...


    asionally, he also receives some private phone calls.


    Mr. Robinson asked him out to y, but Keh always declined. Some personal interactions were


    also handled by Kaleb and he rarely socialized, let alone taking her over.


    When Eloise asked, he only said it wasn''t suitable for a little girl.


    But he was very rxed about her control, and when she interacted with friends, he didn''t pay much


    attention.


    He took her skiing and watched the aurora when he had time.


    That half year was truly their sweetest and most beautiful time...


    As the New Year approached, Keh began to be busy.


    The two hadn''t seen each other for several days, and Eloise was lying on the bed talking to him on the


    phone, with a tone that was as pure and soft as a spoiled kid.


    A voice came from downstairs, as if Brianna was crying.


    "What''s the matter?" Keh couldn''t help but ask as he heard it.


    Eloise whispered softly, "I''ll go downstairs and take a look."


    She hung up the phone and hurriedly went downstairs. On the stairs, she saw his brother Benjamin


    standing in the center of the hall. Her mother hugged his brother''s shoulder and cried, while her father


    patted her mother andforted her.


    Eloise was stunned for a moment.


    At this moment, Brianna lifted her eyes and saw her, with a weeping ent, she said, "Eloise,e


    here quickly and take a look at Everest''s appearance."


    Eloise''s heart was pounding and she ran downstairs.


    Benjamin showed her the phone photo.


    Everest was half a year old, with brown hair and white skin.


    She was so cute.


    Eloise covered her mouth and greedily looked at her, whispering, "She looks like my sister-inw!"


    Brianna was also excited and shed tears.


    Although Alexander also shed tears, he really wanted to save his vanity. He stubbornly said, "It''s better


    to be like Mom. If she looks like your brother, her life is over. Who dares to gat married with her when


    she grows up!"


    Brianna gave her husband a resentful nce.


    Alexander''s voice suddenly softened and heforted, "Look, the child is fine. You don''t have to cry


    every day anymore. Cheer up, and in the future, many of our grandchildren will need our help! I think


    with Ben''s ability, he can definitely give us a legion!"


    Eloise roast: "Dad, youpare Big Brother to a pig!"


    Alexanderughed heartily.


    But in theughter, there was a bit of loneliness. Everest slowly recovered, but there was always one


    person missing from the family, and he didn''t know how Madelyn was now!


    ...


    Eloise returned to her roomte at night.


    She sent the photo to Keh, and after a long time, she received a phone call from him. In the middle


    of the night, he didn''t say anything, just whispered her name, "Eloise."


    She answered.


    Both of them knew each other''s intentions, and the rebirth of the little Everest gave them hope to be


    together.


    Maybe they didn''t have to sneak around anymore.


    She fell asleep holding onto her phone...


    Early in the morning, Keh dialed her phone and said he would arrive at the apartment in an hour.


    His voice was a bit hoarse, obviously working overtime all night anding over in the early morning.


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Eloise felt both joy and heartache deep down. She whispered, "I''ll drive over by myself, don''te


    over to pick me up!"


    Besides, her brother was at home and he had sharp eyes.


    Keh chuckled and gently asked her to drive slowly.


    They almost arrived at the apartment at the same time when they saw each other''s car downstairs.


    Kaleb greeted Eloise with a smile and first carried some fruits and vegetables for daily use upstairs.


    In the cold winter morning, Keh unbuttoned his coat.


    She gently threw herself into his arms and bumped him into the car. Keh hugged her and lowered


    his head to kiss her... He was indeed not young, but at this moment he just wanted to do something


    irrational.


    After kissing for a long time, he asked hoarsely, "Do you miss me?"


    ''Of course!''


    Kaleb came down at this moment and said with a smile, "Everything is ready. I will pick you up at two


    o''clock in the afternoon."


    Eloise was a bit embarrassed.


    Keh took her hand and led her upstairs.


    He was probably a bit urgent. As soon as he entered the door, he couldn''t wait to take off her coat,


    touch her body with one hand and kiss her. They rarely do that kind of thing outside of bed, but today,


    unlike usual, he urgently picked her up on the sofa...


    Just a few minutes before and after, they had sex.


    Eloise had never experienced such a profound love affair before. She hugged his neck, her eyes


    sparkling, full of fascination with him.


    Keh was sweating profusely and began to kiss her...


    He had good physical strength and skills, easily defeating her every time and she cried uncontrobly.


    He finally enjoyed himself and took a brief rest, taking a shower with her in his arms and lying down


    together to rest.


    Eloisey in his arms.


    She was a bit uneasy. He didn''t take any measures just now, but she thought these days were a safe


    period and there shouldn''t be any problems


    She leaned against Keh''s shoulder, murmuring that he wanted too much.


    Keh leaned over and kissed her again. After kissing her for a long time, he whispered, "Are you


    unhappy for this?"


    She blinked lightly, vaguely understanding his meaning.


    Everest''s health had improved and their rtionship could also be perfectly above board...


    But it was better for a man to bring up matters like marriage, even if she was full of expectations, she


    was too embarrassed to say it first... Keh knew her caution!


    He was in a good mood and in good spirits and couldn''t help but had another sex.


    Eloise fell asleep exhausted.


    Keh, however, was filled with joy and got up to cook for her. He also cut a fruit te... When he left,


    he touched the velvet box in his pocket.

    Chapter 328 He Told Her That He Was Just Tired of ying 1


    At two o''clock in the afternoon, Kaleb came to pick him up.


    After getting into the car, Kaleb couldn''t help but joke, "You look so spirited and energetic today!"


    Keh smiled restrainedly and said, "My little girl''s so needy that I''m not energetic at all. It''s just


    tiring!"


    Kaleb smiled vaguely.


    ...


    After the meeting, Keh came out with a very pale look.


    Kaleb greeted him and whispered, "What''s the matter?"


    "Let''s talk about it in the car!"


    When he got into the car, Keh pulled up the window curtains before taking a light breath and


    saying, "Do you remember the project six months ago?"


    Kaleb''s gaze was burning.


    Keh gently unbuttoned a button on his shirt and suppressed his voice, saying, "I rmended the


    Joshua! But today''s meeting news showed that both Joshua and his wife have died in an unknown car


    ident!"


    Kaleb remained in a daze for a long time without any response.


    Keh lowered his head and lit a cigarette, but his fingers were trembling and it took him a long time


    to take a sip. What he didn''t tell Kaleb was that the bodies of Joshua and his wife both had obvious


    bruises!


    In the end, Joshua saved the data with the lives of him and his wife.


    Projects always required someone to take over.


    Keh was the designated person, and this time he was duty-bound and unable to refuse.


    He held the cigarette with trembling fingers, slowly smoking it. With the other hand, he felt for the velvet


    box in his pocket. He was supposed to propose to Eloise today, but he would get married after the New


    Year...


    But now, could he still propose?


    The appearance of Joshua''s wife''s tragic death lingered in his mind and he couldn''t forget it!


    Although he did not exin, Kaleb had already guessed from his extensive knowledge.


    He remained silent.


    At this moment, the ck Audi experienced a violent impact and Keh in the back seat collided


    forward...


    The car stopped, and a man in ck rode his bicycle in front of him, looking into the car with a light and


    ethereal gaze that seemed to have perspective function.


    The driver cursed and wanted to get off.


    Keh suppressed his headache and stopped him, "Don''t get off the car!"


    It would be even more dangerous!


    Sure enough, seeing that people in the car didn''t took any action, the man rode the bicycle away.


    Kaleb climbed up to the back seat and checked Keh''s injury, "Mr. Ryan, are you okay?"


    Keh covered his waist and abdomen: A rib should be broken.


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    He didn''t have a trace of expression on his face and said fiercely, "Just after we had a meeting, they


    received the news. This overseaspany was really rampant!"


    He wanted to find these people and avenge for Joshua and his wife, but at this moment he had to


    protect himself first.


    His phone rang.


    It was Eloise calling, and Keh hesitated to pick it up. He spoke softly, "Eloise, there''s something


    urgent in Vadiff, I have to go back first!"


    How disappointed was Eloise...


    Keh knew clearly deep down.


    But now how dared he go to the apartment? Many pairs of eyes were watching him.


    He gently coaxed her for a while.


    After hanging up the phone. he instructed Kaleb, "Let someone watch her until shees home


    safely."


    Kaleb nodded.


    That night, Keh was admitted to a private hospital in Vadiff. He broke a rib and had a concussion.


    He should have had a good rest, but he couldn''t sleep at all. He stood at the window smoking until it


    was mostly midnight.


    At four o''clock in the morning, Kaleb came in after finishing his work.


    He saw Keh standing smoking and immediately eximed, "Why are you still smoking after being


    so seriously injured? Lie down and rest quickly. The doctor said you need to lie down for at least a


    week."


    He helped him lie down and said, "It was a truth that you can never get all your work finished."


    As the words fell, he saw the diamond ring in Keh''s finger and fell silent for a moment.


    Keh leaned against the bedside and smiled bitterly, "Kaleb, I''m in such an old age but I''m still


    dating a little girl! It have been four years, what will I be like after four years? Although I always say that


    Eloise is young, she''s already 28 years old. After four years, she''s already in her early thirties... How


    could she spend so much time with an old man like me."


    Besides, he really couldn''t bear to imagine what would happen when those lunatics knew about Eloise.


    He couldn''t take risks!


    Kaleb dared not say a word more, as he knew that Mr. Ryan was in a difficult situation.


    Keh only stayed in the hospital for three days.


    On the day of discharge, Eloise called him. He silently watched for a long time before gently hanging it


    up.


    When he hung it up, his heart ached.


    He thought that his little girl must not know that her Uncle Ryan no longer wanted her.


    She must had cried!


    ...


    Keh began to distance himself from her.


    With his experience and skills, it was an easy task to manipte that little girl. He did not suddenly cool


    her down, but gradually became indifferent. While torturing her, he himself also suffered deeply.


    After the New Year, he busied himself and resumed his previous life.


    He had gradually gained contact with Mr. Robinson again.


    Keh, change back to the former Mr. Ryan.


    It was early spring.


    One New Year, Eloise lost several pounds. She couldn''t reach Keh very much. asionally she


    got through the phone, which was also answered by Kaleb.


    Kaleb''s tone was always sorry.


    No matter how dull a person was, she could feel his alienation, but she didn''t have the courage to run


    to him to question. She could only frequently run to the apartment and wait for him eagerly.


    Sometimes she waited for a whole day and forget to eat.


    On Valentine''s Day, she saw the news of Mr. Ryan.


    He supported Violet in the Opera Garden. After she finished singing, she changed into a very beautiful


    dress. Keh held her by the waist and stood together with her, looking like a right match.


    The newspaper slipped from her hand...


    It turned out that he was in Gredax but he refused to meet her.


    Eloise lowered her eyes and the corners of her eyes were wet, but she still called him... she always


    wanted an exnation.


    Keh was at the club.


    When the phone rang, he stopped his card and quietly looked at the number.


    [Eloise rk]


    Mr. Robinson joked, "Wow, one of your girls is catching up again?"


    Keh paused for a moment for recovery and smiled calmly, "Just a child. How could she persist on


    this forever?"


    He continued to y with the cards and lightly said, "Ms. Harris, help me pick it up."


    Violet couldn''t figure out what he meant for a moment. She was a woman and was sensitive enough to


    realize that Mr. Ryan had a very close rtionship with this Eloise. For a while, Mr. Ryan gave her a


    cold shoulder...


    She didn''t know why Eloise was getting back in touch recently.


    However, only Violet knew that Mr. Ryan had never touched her when no one''s around.


    Seeing that she didn''t move, Keh urged, "Pick it up!"


    Violet had to picked it up for the sake of Keh and speak softly, "Hi, Ms. rk. Your Uncle Ryan is


    ying at the club, why don''t youe and y too?"


    On the other end of the phone, Eloise''s breathing was noticeably faster.


    After a while, the phone hung up gently.


    The card that Keh was about to leave Keh''s hand was half a second slower.


    Later, he smiled and said, "I said it, a child''s temper won''tst long, but it''s annoying to keep making


    phone calls!"


    He was smiling, but his eyes were filled with cold air.


    yingte at night, he got into the car and Kaleb asked softly, "Mr. Ryan, where are you going?"


    Keh looked out of the car window, quietly lost in thought.


    After a while, he said, "Go take a look at the apartment."


    At midnight, he returned to the ce that had given him countless sweets, and he was not surprised


    that Eloise was still there.


    She fell asleep on the dining table.


    At the corners of her eyes, there were wet tears.


    Keh stood at the door, his tears hot: This silly thing must have been waiting foe a long time. She


    even didn''t know to sleep in the room. How could she love her Uncle Ryan so much?


    He went over and gently picked her up, but only when he touched Eloise did she woke up.


    Her eyes were filled with tears and looked at him in a panic.


    Her mouth let out a silent cry of "Uncle Ryan", and then her tears fell down. However, she didn''t dare to


    cry out loud, she kept looking at him, wanting him to exin.


    Keh felt a pain in his heart.


    He gently ced her on the sofa and crouched down to caress her little head. His voice was gentle and


    he said, "Eloise, don''t wait for me anymore."


    She looked puzzled, as if she understood his meaning, but she also looked confused.


    Keh was determined to be ruthless and continued to smile, saying, "Uncle Ryan is too old for a


    stable rtionship and I''m not a good man."


    Now, shepletely understood.


    But she didn''t want to believe it.


    She was once so loved by this handsome and mature man that he even took her back to Vadiff, met his


    mother, and they even did things that should only happened between husbands and wives in his


    bedroom.


    She trembled her lips and whispered, "I don''t believe it!"


    Keh sat next to her, lit a cigarette and took a sip.


    A thin mist rose, blurring the visions of the two.


    He chuckled lightly and said, "It''s been half a year now, I''m a bit bored! Eloise, you probably don''t know


    about rtionship between men and women, it''s freshness onlysts most a few months. You said


    we''re not going to separate, you mean we will get married? Take a look at our cultural background, our


    socialwork... is it suitable for us to get married?"


    Eloise''s face was as pale as paper.


    She didn''t know how much strength she had used to avoid fainting.


    She only looked at him, at this man!


    At this time, his expression was exactly the same as he was with Violet.


    Originally, he just treated her like a toy! Just like Violet! No... she was not as good as her, at least he


    turned around and looked for Voilet but she... only had a number that could never be reached.


    Eloise sat there, motionless.


    She was clumsy of speech and didn''t know how to argue with people.


    She loved him so much and couldn''t do anything like a shrew.


    She couldn''t throw a hissy fit, saying that she would take three sleeping pills like before to force her


    uncle dote on her.


    She couldn''t do anything...


    Keh stood up and walked to the window, silently smoking.


    He said something, such aspensating her and thanking her for herpany over the past six


    months.


    She didn''t respond, quietly shedding tears like a puppet doll. She sat there stubbornly, hoping that her


    Uncle Ryan would suddenly turn around, hug her and tell her it was all a lie.


    Everything, was just a bad joke...


    She waited for a long time, but instead of waiting for his embrace, the night became colder and colder.


    It very cold, ice-cold...


    Finally, she spoke softly, "Mr. Ryan, don''t worry, I won''t pester you... "


    Keh slowly turned his head.


    Under the light, their gaze met, without the sweetness of the past.


    Not long ago, she was still lying in his arms, giving him small bite while calling out to her Uncle Ryan


    warmly. He grabbed her hair and didn''t let her bite there...


    She left.


    She cried when she left, and due to her innocent nature, she was toozy to hide.


    She didn''t ask for an exnation either, as if she epted the oue and the fact that Uncle Ryan


    didn''t want her...


    The door was closed gently.


    Keh''s eyes shone brightly, and he trembled his fingers as he fiercely smoked the cigarette between


    them.


    Later, he sat in front of the dining table.


    There was a bowl of noodles on top, which looked very unattractive and should be made by Eloise.


    He picked up his chopsticks and calmly ate the noodles, and the bowl of noodles quickly bottomed out.


    And then...


    He didn''t know what to do anymore!


    Because if Eloise was no longer in this apartment, he didn''t know why he came and what he could do...

    Chapter 329 He Told Her That He Was Just Tired of ying 2


    After Eloise left.


    Keh stayed in the apartment all night, lying in bed surrounded by her belongings.


    They were small stuffs, most of which were bought by him.


    Eloise didn''t know how to do household chores, and the bedroom was also messy. It was often Uncle


    Ryan who helped her clean up. Even when she was in her period, he would wash her dirty little pants.


    On the pillow, there was her smell.


    How could Keh sleep? He just got up and sat on the sofa to smoke.


    Holding his phone in his hand, he thought that if she called him, he would definitely answer, even if he


    couldn''t say anything, it would be good to listen to her voice.


    But all night long, the ashtray was full but she didn''t call.


    He knew in his heart that they were over.


    She was the daughter of a great family, why should she bother him?


    ...


    When the sky was slightly bright, Kaleb felt uneasy and pushed the door in.


    As soon as he entered, he was choked by the smoke in the room and couldn''t help but scold, "Mr.


    Ryan, you should also take care of your body. Smoking like this is not feasible."


    Keh looked at him, pinched out his cigarette and slowly copsed onto the sofa.


    After a while, he slowly spoke up and said, "Run for me."


    He knew that Eloise was notcking in anything, but they had been together once, and after leaving

    her, his life would probably be like this. Money no longer mattered to him.


    Keh finished hismand slowly in a deep voice.


    Kaleb was also quite surprised.


    Mr. Ryan''s love affair was truly earth shattering. The things he gave, let alone boyfriends and


    girlfriends, even divorced couples could dare to imagine.


    He almost took out all personal belongings.


    Kaleb had no objections and immediately went to handle it with great enthusiasm.


    The next day, he arranged to meet Eloise at a nice coffee shop.


    Kaleb arrived first. In early spring weather, he was wearing a dark brown woolen suit and sat quietly


    ying with the lighter, with a thick stack of documents to hand over.


    After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Eloise came and sat quietly across from him.


    "Does he have anything to say?"


    Kaleb looked up at the sound and was startled.


    After just over a month, the little girl lost a lot of weight and looked even more haggard.


    He quickly got up and pulled the chair for Eloise, trying to chat in a calm and gentle tone. However,


    Eloise saw the stack of documents and asked directly, "Are these thepensation he gave me?"


    Kaleb felt a bit uneasy and only let out a sigh after a while.


    Eloise took it over and flipped through a few pages, then stroked the paper with her slender fingers.


    She spoke softly and said, "Since it''s just a game between me and him, why should he go all out for


    love! I don''t want any of these things. Just tell him, I won''t pester him."


    After saying these things, she seemed to have exhausted all her strength.


    Even herself had been in a daze for a long time...


    Uncle Ryan...


    She called him Uncle Ryan for so long, and everything he gave her and promised made her think she


    would be with him forever. She could always be by his side, and he would shield her from the danger.


    So, it turned out to be a dream!


    Originally, it was just his habitual romantic skills...


    Kaleb tried to persuade her for quite a while, but she refused to ept it.


    When he went back to reply, Keh stood in front of the french window of the hotel, turned his back


    to him and kept silent for a long time before saying, "Got it."


    After Kaleb left, Keh lowered his eyes, staring at the diamond ring in his hand.


    It should be like this. She was such a simple little girl.


    How could she ept that!


    Keh didn''t know before that he would also love someone like this. When he was working, he was


    fine. When he was free, he would dream of her all night. In the crowd, he would unconsciously turn


    around and look behind him. Even when socializing with Mr. Robinson and others, he would always


    look at the copper gate, as if the next second, his little girl would push the door in.


    With tears streaming down his face, she called him Uncle Ryan.


    It took him a long time to realize that it was difficult to quit her...


    About a weekter, they met once. It was at a dinner party in Gredax that they met without preparation.


    She came with Benjamin rk.


    Wearing a water powder strapless long dress.


    A diamond chain was worn between on her neck and her ck ink-like hair was casually scattered


    around the waist.


    Her whole being was so delicate and moving.


    Violet was beside Keh, and when he saw Eloise, his whole body stiffened.


    Violet was not a fool.


    She knew very well deep down that the rtionship between her and Keh was just a y, and no


    one took it seriously. He had several women like her around. But since he met the daughter of the


    rk family in the backstage, he no longer had any dealings with her.


    Even a fool could guess what was going on!


    Not long after, Kaleb sent a check over.


    She knew that Mr. Ryan was about topletely break up with her and would note to listen to her


    singing in the future.


    Indeed, she gradually heard that Mr. Ryan was not hanging around in the club anymore.


    She guessed that he had someone and was perfectly keeping it a secret.


    But who this person should be? She had a clear mind, but she didn''t dare to talk nonsense outside


    because she couldn''t afford to offend someone like Keh. The day when Keh appeared again in


    Opera Garden, she was overjoyed.


    Violet thought he was nostalgic and thought they could still be the same as before.


    But she was wrong.


    Keh only listens to ys or socializes with her, while the other romantic affairs were gone.


    In private, he was even more chaste than a virgin.


    Violet understood that she could no longer have the chance of bing Mrs. rk, but she was


    willing to maintain a friendly rtionship with Keh. On the one hand, he had never treated her


    unfairly, and on the other hand, she also needed his reputation and connections.


    At this moment, the man beside her and the daughter of the rk family looked at each other with


    tears in their eyes.


    Violet didn''t know what kind of conflict they had, so she smiled first and whispered, "Mr. Ryan, why


    does Eloise look at you like she''s about to cry?"


    Keh ignored her, he just stared at his little girl like that.


    Eloise looked at him, and then at Violet''s hand, which was holding his arm, she turned her head away


    in anger.


    She stood closer to her brother.


    After all, she was wronged. Her small mouth trembled slightly and she leaned her head against his


    brother''s shoulder.


    Benjamin looked down at her and gently asked, "Are you tired of standing?"


    She let out a sigh and then hugged her brother''s waist.


    The siblings had a great rtionship and were extremely close. Keh''s eyelids couldn''t help but


    jump while catching this scene, he never thought that one day he would be jealous of Benjamin, this


    bastard.


    Violet nced at him and felt somewhat refreshed.


    She deliberately wiggled her hips and greeted her with a charming expression, "Mr. rk, your


    rtionship with your sister is really good. It makes me so envious."


    Benjamin never restrained his words about women.


    Violet was truly beautiful, but she exuded an extreme charming aura that he didn''t really like.


    He was very cold, and Violet didn''t care either. Instead, she became more and more enthusiastic,


    staring at Eloise''s pale face and saying, "I know a few young talents who, after my thinking about it, are


    also worthy of Ms. rk. Why don''t we arrange to have coffee together some other day?"


    Keh happened toe over.


    She took Keh''s hand and asked affectionately, "Keh, do you think so?"


    Keh stared at the Eloise.


    She also looked at him, her eyes full of tears...


    For a long time, Keh slowly smiled and said in a soft voice, "Everybody should find himself a mate


    when it is about the time. It''s time for Eloise to carefully identify candidates. Ben, you should also let


    your parents introduce some boys to Eloise."


    At this moment, Benjamin was very afraid of this uncle, since his future would be decided by him.


    So he nodded and touched his sister''s head, affectionately saying, "The boss is no small, it''s time to


    start a rtionship!"


    Eloise''s face turned extremely pale.


    She stared at Keh, her teeth trembling with anger, but in the public, she restrained herself and


    instead smiled profusely, "I will listen to Uncle Ryan''s words."


    After she finished speaking, she excused herself and left first.


    Keh looked at her back and gently clenched his fingers.


    Violet had a myriad of emotions and says, "She looks angry, then coax her back. You drag me around


    all day long, and even I''m anxious for you. Oh... if you two get married, don''t forget to give me a big gift


    for being the witness. I rarely have such generosity."


    Keh shook her off and walked away lightly...


    Eloise walked to an unmanned terrace and quietly looked at the river in the distance, which was


    colorful and extended for a long length... her eyes were imperceptibly wet.


    Why was she here?


    She wanted to go home!


    She heard someone''s footsteps behind her and then someone locked the door.


    She guessed who it was. When she turned her head gently, she indeed saw Keh standing there...


    She was full of tears, thin that she looked adorable.


    He murmured her name softly, "Eloise."


    Eloise''s back pressed against the railing behind her, and she looked at him absentmindedly,


    whispering, "Don''te over! Keh... don''te over."

    Chapter 330 He Told Her That He Was Just Tired of ying 3


    Keh still walked over.


    The neon lights of the city enveloped them with ayer of colorful cover, making everything seem


    unreal.


    Like a dream and an illusion.


    It was like that he never left and never said those hurtful words.


    It was like, he was still her Uncle Ryan, he would hug her in the middle of the night and call her Lucy in


    the morning, saying he was leaving first...


    Her lips trembled as she watched him walk towards her.


    If possible, she wished would never wake up from this dream, but her pride did not allow her to do that.


    "Eloise." He stroked her face, full of dismay.


    She avoided and pped him in the face.


    The strength was not really strong, but the sound seemed deafening, drawing a clear line between


    them.


    After she pped him, she felt a bit dazed herself.


    She trembled her lips and said, "Mr. Ryan, you are really generous. You should arrange for the future of


    the woman you have slept, but whether I am single or not and wether someone wants me has nothing


    to do with you, Mr. Ryan!"


    She forced herself to say these words and then walked to the door.


    But no matter how hard she pulled, the door couldn''t open.


    She froze there with a nasal tone in her voice, "What is this for? Aren''t you afraid that others will see it


    and affect Mr. Ryan''s reputation?"


    Keh slowly approached, holding her hand in his.


    He was so close to her, so close that he could kiss her tender ear root with a bow of his head. Every


    time when they were together, he liked to kiss there and make her look ridiculous.


    But now, he just held her hand and said in a low voice, "Could you listen to me? Marry someone and


    live a peaceful life."


    Eloise fell into a daze again.


    Peaceful...


    She didn''t know where she could find a peaceful life after this rtionship was over!


    She had never been a mean person, even if she was yed with, she couldn''t speak anything harsh.


    She just blindly wanted to escape from him and not see him again!


    In the end, Keh let her go...


    The footsteps behind him gradually drifted away and he watched the scenery she had seen alone.


    Kaleb appeared silently and said softly, "She went back first."


    Keh let out a sigh, slowly lit a cigarette, and then said quietly, "Meetings like today are probably


    very rare in the future, and child with tantrums will eventually figure it out... Kaleb, when she finds a


    good husband and has their children...If she had a daughter, the little girl would definitely be like her!"


    Kaleb''s eyes were welled up and he replied, "Please don''t say anything!"


    Maybe, maybe there would be a turning point!


    Keh  stood quietly, with no expression on his gentle and upright face.


    He had too much to worry about...


    If he were ten years younger and met Eloise at that age, he would surely marry early and make her


    happy every day. She would never know what troubles were!


    After a while, he sighed lightly and said, "Prepare a special ne back to Vadiff!"


    ...


    Eloise left the banquet.


    She didn''t go home but found a shop. She changed her million dor haute couture dress into a casual


    outfit worth several hundred yuan, and then wandered aimlessly on the street.


    It waste at night.


    A ck RV slowly passed by her side.


    Unfortunately, this car belonged to Violet. Violet was not alone in the car, but apanied by her new


    boyfriend. The two were preparing to spend the night together.


    Seeing the daughter of the rk family from afar, Violet called the driver to stop.


    When the car stopped, she wiggled her slender waist and got out of the car. She said quite kindly, "Why


    are you hanging around outside in the middle of the night? Let me take you home! Otherwise, if Uncle


    Ryan finds out, he''ll me me for my poor work."


    How could Eloise bear such words? They only made her disgusted.


    She walked forward.


    At this moment, the young handsome man got off the car and hugged Violet''s waist, asking, "Who is


    this?"


    Eloise turned around and looked at him.


    Violet snuggled up with the man and didn''t shy away. Instead, she smiled even more coquettishly, "Why


    are you stunned? Children are just children, isn''t it normal for men and women to be like this? Why


    should I protect my virginity for Keh? Besides, since you appeared, he had never touched my


    body, why can''t I have some fun myself?"


    Eloise''s breathing was a bit chaotic.


    What did she say? Uncle... Uncle Ryan wasn''t in a rtionship with her?


    Why did he deceive her?


    Violet saw her doubts and decided to help her to the end.


    She took a few steps forward, sorted out Eloise''s clothes and said lightly, "The rtionship between


    your Uncle Ryan and I ended ages ago. I knew clearly in mind that to which extend he liked me and I


    also dreamed of bing Mrs. rk before. But this time he praised me without upying my body. I


    knew he wouldn''t marry me! I have nothing to say with men who don''t even touch me."


    Both of them were fond of these affairs.


    If he didn''t touch, he just didn''t like her!


    Eloise looked at her without moving and murmured, "Why do you tell me this?"


    "Look at you, little pitiful!"


    Violet smiled coquettishly and said, "You looked so foolish that I know you''ve been bullied a lot by him.


    Alright,e on... I told you with heartache, and if you want to figure it out, you can ask your Uncle


    Ryan yourself, and only he knows what he thinks in his heart."


    After Violet finished her words, she hugged the handsome man''s waist and offered a sweet kiss.


    Two people got into the car with sweet love words.


    The car had just started when Eloise stopped it. Violet and handsome man were kissing uncontrobly


    in the back seat, scared out of their wits by a single brake. The driver said in embarrassment, "Ms.


    rk stopped the car!"


    Right at the moment, Eloise opened the car door and squeezed towards Violet and the handsome


    man.


    The atmosphere was particrly awkward.


    Violet''s clothes were torn open, revealing arge snow-white skin.


    That man was nothing better either.


    Eloise''s voice was firm, "Take me to the airport."


    Violet was about to lose control. She was so restless that she lost her expression and said, "What''s


    wrong with you!"


    Eloise refused to go off.


    The manughed andforted Violet, "Just send her!"


    He had a great crush on Violet and longed for Eloise to chase Keh, so that he could take over this


    famous opera actress. As a result, with different aims, they really ran to the airport.


    Eloise, a soft-hearted girl, cried all the way at the thought of Uncle Ryan''s possible difficulties.


    Violet buttoned her clothes and rolled her eyes.


    The joy was ruined by in the cry-baby''s tears...


    Late at night, there were naturally no flights.


    Eloise sat alone in the waiting room, holding a ticket in her hand, which was the earliest flight to Vadiff


    tomorrow.


    She could have gone home first.


    But she couldn''t wait, she just wanted to sit here and wait.


    She also thought about calling Keh, but she was afraid he wouldn''t answer.


    In the distance, a group of people passed by.


    An outstanding and handsome man, surrounded by seven or eight people, was walking towards the


    VIP aisle. The man''s eyes shed and he saw a little girl sitting in the empty waiting room, her back


    filled with sadness.


    From behind, it looked like Eloise.


    But how could Eloise be here? She should be crying again tonight...


    Keh stood there and watched quietly for a long time until Kaleb reminded him, "Mr. Ryan, the


    special ne is about to take off!"


    Keh then withdrew his gaze and quickly walked into the VIP channel.


    Returning to Vadiff, he urgently held a meeting and worked for a whole morning.


    Only untill noon was he able toe home.


    Near lunchtime, the servants in the house were busy preparing meals and it was very lively. When


    asked, he knew that there was a guest from Gredax, his mom was so happy that she was grinning from


    ear to ear and even took out her own vegetables.


    Guest from Gredax...


    Keh thought it might be Cam, so he lit a cigarette and walked towards the kitchen, ready to say


    hello.


    But just as he cleared the vines in the corridor, he froze.


    His little girl, sitting on a stone stool with his mom, was chatting andughing while picking beans.


    This scene oveped with the good old times...


    It made Keh''s eyes wet!


    He forgot to speak for a moment, so he looked straight at her and realized that she was wearing the


    same clothes he saw at the airportst night. It turned out that she was the one at the airportst night.


    Stupid thing, she waited at the airport all night.


    Keh felt extremely sad in his heart, but he remained calm and walked over slowly, smoking a


    cigarette. He smiled and said, "Eloise, you are to apany my mom?"


    Eloise raised her eyes and looked at him gently.


    Keh also looked at her quietly for a while and sat down.


    Athena patted him and said, "I ran into her on the street and brought her back! In such cold weather, a


    little girl was wandering on the road early in the morning and didn''t have anything with her, so I couldn''t


    bear it but bring her back to take care of her! Nobody has a heart of stone like you do!"


    Hearing scolding and mockery, Keh was not angry at all.


    He still looked at Eloise and slowly said after a while, "She will stay in the old room and I''ll take her


    over!"


    After he finished, he led Eloise away.


    When they left, the olddy looked in the direction they were leaving and sighed softly.


    ...


    In the eastern bedroom, ordinary servants dared note over without Keh''s permission.


    Keh pushed open the bedroom door and pushed her in.


    The door closed, and he pressed her against the door panel. His voice was severe and suppressed:


    "What are you doing here? After dinner, go back to Gredax, and I''ll ask Kaleb book a flight for you."


    "I''m not leaving!" She leaned her back against the door panel, tears welling up.


    Keh took out his phone and called Kaleb, "Book a ticket for Eloise this afternoon, the faster..."


    Before he could finish speaking, his phone was knocked down.


    Keh''s gaze was even harsher: "You must go!"


    She had never seen him like this before. She was afraid and her lips trembled. But she boldly said, "I


    won''t leave. Violet has told me that you have nothing to do with her."


    Keh stared at her intently.


    After a while, he chuckled softly and said, "Do you also believe the words of the actress?"


    Her body was trembling uncontrobly. She had hardly ever argued with anyone or had any arguments,


    but she must figure it out today. He couldn''t fool her.


    Keh pinched out the cigarette and then roughly pressed her shoulder with one hand.


    "Want to hear the truth?"


    Eloise''s lips trembled slightly and she was about to cry.


    Keh''s ck hair drooped on his forehead, which made him look decadent and unfathomable as


    she had never seen before. He stared into her eyes and said in a very low voice that Eloise could hard


    caught, "Little girls can''t ept the truth! If you must listen, I''ll tell you! Before you, there was not only


    Ms. Harris, but also Ms. Young and Ms. Torres... They knew their identity. But a young and naive girl


    like you is not interested in my status and money and wholeheartedly likes me, which made me quite


    interested!"


    "By the way, you haven''t forgotten the first time when we had sex, have you? In the hospital... Think


    about what happened to Madelyn at that time, Everest''s situation was so urgent that you didn''t know


    how much pressure I had. You brought yourself to me in the evening and how could I resist the tempt?


    It has been half a year... I''m tired of your body and don''t want to y with you, okay? You said I didn''t


    touch Violet and it was true, I didn''t touch her because I''m also bored of hers..."


    Keh began to unbutton her, with a hint of detachment in his voice.


    "Are youing all the way here to ask me to have sex with you?"


    "You''re in such a need of men?"


    "I''ll satisfy you for thest time, then pick up your clothes and put them on, and immediately roll back to


    Gredax. I don''t want to y with naive little girls anymore, do you understand?"


    ...


    He pulled open her buttons and yed with her body with humiliation.


    A p fell on his gentle face.


    Eloise cried, "Keh, you like me!"


    Keh sneered and hugged her to the bed, starting to kiss her: "When a man wants to y with a


    woman, of course he says he likes her. If he doesn''t say it, why would you take the initiative to jump


    into my arms and call me Uncle Ryan so affectionately? It''s really silly of you. We''re adult men and


    women and it''s a natural call. Only fools like you would take it seriously!"


    At the moment of he took possession of her body, she cried.


    There were also tears in the corners of Keh''s eyes, but he continued to speak mercilessly, "I don''t


    know how many girls like you I have slept with, I just like the feeling of freshness! Do you really think I


    was responsible for you after sleeping a few times with you?" Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Eloise burst into tears...


    Stop talking, stop talking...


    She pushed him to stop him from continuing, but Keh reached out and took out a box from the


    bedside table, with a intention of make it to the end.


    She couldn''t bear it anymore and pped him in the face.


    After the p, she buried her head in the quilt and cried sadly.


    Keh''s face was ck and blue. Hey dejectedly aside, covering his eyes with his palm.

    Chapter 331 In Order To Save Her, Keh Could Lost It All


    Eloise''s slender body was covered in the bed sheet, on which there were several red marks, which he


    had just left.


    She was crying.


    Half because of sadness, and half because of fear.


    After a long time, Keh covered his swollen eyes and whispered, "Go after dinner! Don''te back


    again, for a long time. Eloise! Listen carefully, I don''t want you anymore."


    Her crying voice weakened.


    Just like that, she hunched over for a long time and slowly curled up again.


    She didn''t even want to go out to meet anyone in such an embarrassing situation as not being willing to


    eat.


    After a long time, she finally sat up and began to dress.


    Her hands trembled uncontrobly, but she slowly put on her clothes and slowly got out of bed.


    Keh followed her out of bed.


    He lightly touched her elbow and spoke hoarsely, "Go to eat. After that, I''ll send a car to take you to the


    airport."


    The next second, his hand was beaten away.


    Her voice was very soft: "There''s no need, I can go by myself."


    Keh''s hand froze in mid air, and it took him a long time to drop it. He wanted to speak again, but he


    still held back.


    It was not bad if she was willing to leave!


    What else could he hold back, even if he sent her back?


    The air was silent, and her hand was on the doorknob. At this moment, she knew clearly that there was


    no possibility for them after parting and she would never call him Uncle Ryan again!


    It''s over.


    To him, it was just a romantic affair, but she took it seriously.


    But at such a moment, Eloise knew clearly that she had never regretted it. She owned those beloved


    memories truly and that''s enough.


    The door opened and Athena was standing outside.


    Athena smiled and said, "What''s the matter? Why are you crying? Keh, I''ve told you. Eloise is so


    much younger than you, you should love her. Why are you still bullying the younger generation?"


    As she spoke, the olddy took the little girl by the hand and asked her to go eat.


    Athena was such a gentle and kind elderly person that Eloise couldn''t bear to shake off her hand, she


    just tearfully said, "I''m going home."


    Athena fixed her gaze on her son for a few seconds andter said, "If you have to leave, please finish


    the meal before leaving! I''ll ask Uncle Ryan to arrange a car to take you back."


    Finally, the three of them had meal together.


    There was an unprecedented silence.


    Eloise''s tears kept dripping and Keh had no appetite. He walked to the window, pulled out a


    cigarette and lit it.


    When she finished eating, he called the personal driver to take her to the airport.


    Eloise got on the car and left.


    The ck RV slowly left and Keh stood quietly there for a long time...


    His heart was so painful that he lost consciousness.


    Athena wept beside him, only repeating a few words in a low voice.


    "You tried so hard to settle it down but why are you driving her away?"


    ...


    But Athena had a shrewd eye and noticed that her son had forced himself to make the decision. She


    didn''t intervene too much, but she pitied her son''s love for Eloise. She wanted to ask something, but


    when the words was about to be spoken, she swallowed them again.


    Kaleb came to pick Eloise up.


    At the notice of this atmosphere, he knew something after a brief inquiry.


    He furrowed lightly and whispered to Keh, "Amelia is in the car! I came to pick you up and she said


    she wanted a ride and I can''t refuse..."


    Keh''s face slightly changed.


    Amelia, like Keh, studied engineering and was his younger sister in the university back then.


    She was also his first love.


    After Keh took over the project, Amelia parachuted over. The meeting with her former lover was


    different from others, and Keh immediately checked her background.


    After graduating, Amelia had three years of experience working abroad.


    Although he had not figured out her background, he had already concluded that she was secretly sent


    by a foreignpany.


    Keh felt a chill in his heart.


    He was about tomand Kaleb something when Amelia had already arrived. She had talked to


    Keh and had also met Athena.


    Athena would definitely be happy for this in the past. But she knew that her son only had Eloise in his


    heart, so she was not so enthusiastic at the moment.


    She didn''t even served her a cup of coffee.


    But Amelia didn''t care and spoke softly, "Mr. Ryan, please!"


    Keh''s heart was filled with mixed feelings but his expression was extremely calm and he only


    nodded lightly.


    He gave Kaleb a look.


    Kaleb read his mind.


    At this moment, he was both nervous and admired him, only Mr. Ryan could understand everything and


    make an immediate decision in such a situation...


    Yes, Eloise must have been kidnapped.


    Amelia was the spy.


    But they also has spies in the other side and Kaleb immediately went out and sent an instruction with


    his phone--


    [Kidnap Amelia!]


    After sending the message, he walked back and smiled as if nothing had happened, "Mr. Ryan and


    Amelia, it''s about the time!"


    Keh nodded lightly.


    Amelia followed him onto the car.


    The atmosphere on the car was oppressive, with no one speaking, invisibly engaged inpetition.


    When the car stopped at the Science and Technology Center, Keh''s phone rang, and the caller


    was an unfamiliar number. The person''s voice was altered and said, "Hello Mr. Ryan!"


    Keh''s hand on the phone turned white with force.


    But he remained expressionless and smiled, "What can I do for you?"


    The other party chuckled.


    Then hung up the phone and sent him a photo!


    That was a photo that made Keh''s heart break. His Eloise was tied to a chair, her mouth was


    sealed, and under his feet were the driver of the Ryan family. They were in an abandoned warehouse.


    Subsequently, the phone rang again.


    "Mr. Ryan, you probably haven''t forget how Joshua and his wife died, have you? He was too tight-


    lipped, and he didn''t take care of his wife. She had such a beautiful appearance... what a pity!"


    Keh held onto his phone tightly.


    For a moment, he said in a cold voice, "You''re foolish enough as to try to inquire information from a little


    girl! Whatever you want!"


    After speaking, he hung up the phone.


    On the other end of the phone, there was a ck and tall man.


    He was clearly stunned and then looked at Eloise.


    ording to Amelia''s information, this woman was Keh''s girlfriend, and the Keh actually didn''t


    care about her life... Fuck, the person sitting in that position was indeed ruthless.


    He didn''t believe it and wanted to hurt Eloise.


    But others stopped him: "Are you crazy? This girl is from the rk family!"


    The man gritted his teeth fiercely and caught a chicken from outside. He cut off the chicken head alive


    and put it in a stic bag, saying, "Send this to Keh."


    At this moment, the subordinate picked up the phone and whispered, "There is an order from above


    that Amelia should be arrested. The woman is a first love of Keh, he will hand over the information


    obediently then!"


    Amelia?


    The ck man was stunned, "Isn''t that our own person?"


    The subordinate scratched his head and said, "It was themand from the head!"


    The tall and strong man gritted his fine teeth and sneered, "That woman called Amelia dared to fool us


    like idiots. She used to sleep with Keh and thus she might be on his side!"


    He ordered his men to catch her.


    After giving the order, he looked at Eloise and kicked her angrily: "Your lover is really amazing. His


    fucking female confidants are all around. Can his health afford to take care of so many women?"


    Eloise was tied up, dumbfounded.


    She heard it.


    Just now, Keh said those few words on the phone: [You''re foolish enough as to try to inquire


    information from a little girl! Whatever you want!]


    She guessed that the information was important, but did he really ignore her?


    He just... hung up on the phone?


    And Amelia was also his lover?


    She was so stunned that she even forgot to cry...


    Time passed by little by little.


    At four o''clock in the afternoon, a woman with a myriad of charm was lured over by several


    subordinates with ck cloth.


    It was a very beautiful woman,


    Wearing a navy blue coat, with long ck hair tied around the back of the head,


    Not as charming as Violet, but with even more temperament.


    Eloise''s lips trembled and she stared at the woman, realizing that she was Keh''s first love!


    How many women did this old man owned!


    At first, Amelia pretended, but when she saw these rude mening for real, she was so angry that


    she pped the strong ck man in the face and said, "You bastard, you even caught me!"


    That man was not a true bastard.


    He pped back on her face, causing Amelia''s ears to buzz.


    She lost her voice and said, "What are you doing?"


    The man stepped forward and kicked her, saying, "What are we doing? Fuck you, why didn''t you bitch


    say you slept with Keh earlier? If you had told us earlier, why would we bother this girl? We just


    need tie you up."


    Amelia gritted her teeth in anger and said, "Whosemand was it?"


    "Our head''s."


    "Which one?"


    "Why the fuck are you keep asking so much? Tie her up, tie her up with that girl, make it tighter, this


    bitch has much more value than that one!"


    The men smiled vaguely...


    Amelia knew Keh better than these people.


    She slowly calmed down and a cold sweat broke out from behind--


    The person above was Keh!


    It was Keh who sent someone to catch her, then he would rescue her and easily rescued Eloise...


    This discovery made her almost scream out, but she knew Keh''s methods well.


    Keh''s ruthless decision was unknown to others but was clear to her...


    If he could catch her, he must have controlled her family at the same time.


    If Eloise was hurt, he would kill her whole family as revenge!


    At this moment, she was so jealous that she went crazy..


    Keh, who was as cold as iceberg and had never truly been in love, unexpectedly fell in love with a


    little girl. She remembered when they broke up, he said to her: ''Amelia, I am not suitable for a


    rtionship!''


    She opposed him for this sentence.


    She had gained significant status in a foreignpany and wantd to stand up to him, making him


    regret his original choice.


    But he used her life to save his girl''s life.


    Only Keh was ruthless enough to do it!


    ...


    It waste at night.


    Keh sat in the office, leaning slightly over and staring at the phone.


    He was waiting for news.


    Even though he had not slept for more than 24 hours, his eyes did not blink and his gentle and upright


    face was full of worry.


    Kaleb whispered aside, "Please take a break first, I''ll keep an eye on it."


    Keh remained silent.


    Kaleb couldn''t help but worry, "Will Amelia...?"


    "She dares not!"


    Keh''s style made he civility between he and Amelia destroyed, and she dared not say a word if she


    wasn''t crazy.


    Kaleb nodded and continued to wait quietly.


    At nine o''clock in the evening, the phone rang and the same voice continued: "Mr. Ryan, your old friend


    Amelia is in our hands... Hah-hah, you are truly blessed. The women in our hands are all beautiful like


    flowers."


    Keh''s voice remained calm, "Don''t touch her!"


    The man chuckled and touched Amelia, intending to be enigmatical: "If you want your first love to be


    safe and untouched, you have to give something. Otherwise, I can''t guarantee that she will end like


    Joshua''s wife."


    Keh suppressed his voice and said, "Where are you? How to trade?"


    ...


    Hang up the phone, the man was not polite and gave Amelia a few hard touches.


    He looked at Eloise disdainfully and said, "It seems that this woman is more favored by Keh."


    Eloise was stunned.


    She didn''t quite believe it, and she vaguely felt that Keh came... for her!


    Keh came overte at night.


    The driver parked the car outside, leaving both the bodyguard and Kaleb in ce. He walked into the


    warehouse alone with a chip, only to be choked on... dust was everywhere.


    Keh looked around.


    His Eloise was tied to the chair, eyes filled with tears, and the look in her eyes was full of trust.


    Stupid thing!


    She even believed in him at this time!


    Keh''s heart hurt and felt bitter with unprecedented pain, but he didn''t look at her but looked at


    Amelia with a very concerned gaze...


    The ck strong man came over ying with a knife.


    There were also seven or eight people around him, each with a tiger like gaze.


    Keh was dressed in ck.


    He was born gentle and handsome and he became more and more outstanding in such an


    environment.


    "Mr. Ryan, what a charming figure!"


    The man grabbed Amelia''s hair, threw her forward and sneered, "Let''s deal!"


    Keh had an extra small chip in his hand.


    He whispered, "All the information for the project!"


    The man didn''t easily believe it, so Keh threw the thing to him and said, "You can inspect it first!"


    The man instinctively caught it.


    But that little thing was not a chip, but a small detonator that was detonated with just a touch, and the


    ck strong man and Amelia were blown away together!


    Everyone froze.


    Shocked by Keh''s ruthlessness!


    Amelia fell into a pool of blood, her hand bombed into a blur of flesh and blood. Her whole body was


    covered in blood and she stared at Keh with sadness and resentment. She couldn''t believe he


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    would treat her like this.


    Without hesitation, for his love, he wanted to take her life.


    Almost simultaneously, bodyguards from outside rushed in, including some uniformed personnel.


    Keh looked quietly at the Eloise.


    She was looking at him they way he did.


    She thought he woulde to hold her and untie her rope, but he walked towards Amelia, bent down


    to pick up the woman and hugged her in his arms, saying very gently, "Amelia, I will take you to the


    hospital right away!"


    Amelia almost fainted with pain, but she tried desperately to make herself sober.


    She stared fixedly at the man in front of her and whispered, "Keh, you are so cruel!"


    Keh leaned closer to her ear, as if in love, but in fact, he said harshly, "You shouldn''t have touched


    her!"


    Amelia closed her eyes slightly.


    She lost, emotionally to the inexperienced youngdy Eloise, and strategically to Keh. It turned out


    that Keh had already infiltrated his people in thepany, and his tactics were hundreds of times


    more powerful than those of Joshua.


    Amelia was unwilling to give up, "Why didn''t you take on the task back then?"


    At the beginning...


    Keh lowered his eyes and thought bitterly that he had intended to give the little girl a home.


    But he indirectly killed Joshua and his wife.


    Amelia lost her one hand, and he used this tofort the couple in heaven. This was not enough, he


    also needed to personally watch the project seed and apply it to the aerospace industry on his


    own...


    Keh hugged Amelia and stepped out of the warehouse.


    Behind him came the gentle voice of Eloise: "Uncle Ryan..."

 Chapter 332 Shes Carrying His Child

    Chapter 332 She''s Carrying His Child


    Chapter 332 She''s Carrying His Child


    Keh paused in his tracks.


    After a moment, he instructed Kaleb, "Find a hotel for her to settle in."


    Kaleb personally untied the little miss, seeing that she was unharmed, and his eyes welled up with


    tears. "As long as she''s safe!"


    But Eloise''s gaze remained fixed on the direction Keh had left, lost in thought.


    Her heart slowly sank.


    ......


    In the early morning hours, Keh stood by the window while Kaleb draped a coat over his shoulders.


    Kaleb spoke softly, "Amelia''s right hand is disabled. In the future, she''ll probably need to train her left


    hand. How do you n to arrange things for her?"


    Keh lit a cigarette.


    After a moment, he whispered, "Keep her around, she''s still useful."


    He wanted her to be his "trusted confidante." If anyone wanted to harm those close to him, the first


    person they would have to deal with would be Amelia. To put it frankly, she was his shield.


    And she couldn''t refuse!


    Kaleb fell silent.


    Keh turned his head with a bitter smile. "Why are you so shocked? This is who I''ve always been.


    How do others describe me? A smiling tiger, a ruthless king!"


    But even a person like him had vulnerabilities.


    Now, he was going to meet that vulnerability!


    ......


    Vadiff''s best hotel.


    Outside the suite, several bodyguards remained loyal and vignt, never leaving their posts.


    Inside the suite, Eloise held a box of food, tears streaming down her face as she ate.


    Before she met Keh, she rarely cried. Even when she jokingly mentioned taking sleeping pills while


    dating Daniel, it was just an empty threat. At that time, she thought her infatuation with Daniel was love.


    But it wasn''t until she experienced true love that she realized how shallow her previous feelings had


    been.


    She couldn''t eat, and just the thought of food made her feel sick.


    Later, the nausea became so unbearable that she couldn''t stand even the slightest whiff of meat, and


    she crouched in the bathroom, retching until she was dizzy and disoriented. This was unusual for her,


    as she had always had a good appetite.


    Eloise rubbed her small belly, lost in thought.


    She remembered, over a month ago, thest time they had sex without protection.


    Could she be pregnant?


    Eloise looked up, and in the mirror, herplexion was as pale as paper.


    She almost rushed out, she wanted to buy a pregnancy test, she wanted to know if she was really


    carrying Keh''s child, and if there was such a child, she wanted to ask him...


    Does he want it?


    The bodyguard at the door stopped her, politely saying, "Miss Eloise, Kaleb has instructed that you


    cannot go anywhere."


    Eloise trembled her lips, "I don''t feel well and I want to go downstairs to buy some medicine."


    The person hesitated.


    In the end, they let her go down, but two people followed her.


    There was a 24-hour pharmacy opposite the hotel. She hurriedly went in, bought something, and hid it


    in her pocket before quickly returning to her room.


    A minuteter, on the pregnancy test strip, two red lines appeared.


    Eloise stared at it nkly for a while before suddenly covering her mouth.


    She was pregnant...


    She was carrying Keh''s child!


    There was a knock on the door at the entrance, followed by the sound of light footsteps. She


    recognized the sound of Keh walking.


    She gently touched her small belly and slowly walked out.


    Just two hours had passed, and they had already be somewhat strangers to each other.


    Eloise''s lip trembled as she wanted to tell him that she was pregnant. But Keh spoke first.


    He sat down on the couch, his slender, jade-like fingers gently stroking the armrest, seemingly


    pondering before he spoke, "Eloise, you''ve seen it yourself, how dangerous it is to be by my side."


    She wanted to say that she wasn''t afraid.


    Keh chuckled softly, his gaze fixed on her as he asked in a calm tone, "Then, staying by my side,


    what can you do for me? Can you shed blood for me like Zimei did? Eloise, what I need by my side is


    someone like her, not a crybaby like you."


    She murmured, "Do you like her?"


    "I admire her!"


    Keh patted his wrinkled pants, saying calmly, "Her right hand was crippled! I did it myself!"


    Fearful, immediately reply to Gredax.


    Eloise''s lips trembled, not understanding what he meant.


    Keh smiled and said inly yet cruelly, "I admire women like her! Eloise, you are lovely, but only


    suitable for passing time during peaceful days. Eloise, I am destined not to live in peaceful days, do


    you understand?"


    He suddenly said harshly, "You understand nothing!"


    Eloise listened, feeling somewhat dazed...


    She understood, to some extent.


    He did have some feelings for her, but his slight affection was not enough for him to give up what he


    had. He liked power, he liked politics, and she wasn''t the woman suitable for him.


    Was Amelia the right one?


    Eloise didn''t ask that question. She slowly lowered her eyshes.


    He was a man who pursued great things, and he made it clear to her. What was she to him with just a


    child holding him back?


    Under the dim yellow light, their final silhouettes remained.


    She didn''t tell him about her pregnancy.


    She just tilted her head up slightly and said softly, "Then, I wish Mr. Ryan a bright future in his career."


    Keh looked at her.


    And she turned away, her voice short and broken, "Leave quickly! Otherwise, I will cling to you."


    Keh slowly stood up.


    He hesitated for a moment, as if wanting to touch her head, but eventually gave up. It was only when


    he reached the door and held the doorknob that he whispered, "Eloise, I''m sorry!"


    He apologized for this affair, for not having a proper ending between them.


    His little girl would meet another good man again, while someone like him should only exist in the realm


    of power. It was just a form of punishment...


    Keh left.


    The door opened gently, then closed again.


    Eloise copsed onto the soft carpet, covering her face and crying stifled tears.


    She returned to Gredax, not daring to go home.


    She went to the house on Rasta Road, lying inside every day, surviving on the little food in the


    refrigerator.


    She couldn''t cook, so she boiled things in water.


    Every night, she would wake up startled because she dreamed that Uncle Ryan hade back, gently


    carrying her to bed, patting her buttocks and telling her that she wasn''t obedient.


    When she woke up, tears lingered in the corners of her eyes.


    But he never came back...


    By the time she emerged from her daze, two months had passed and her belly had grown.


    She dared not go home anymore.


    She couldn''t let her family know that she was pregnant, let alone that the child in her belly belonged to


    Keh. She hid and ran, without any cards or money on her.


    Her clothes became increasingly in.


    She moved into a small rented room of just over 20 square meters. She learned to do odd jobs, earning


    meager wages to support herself. She even learned how to make simple fried rice...


    She is very calcting, even when ites to a cup of milk tea.


    asionally, she saw Keh in the news. He looked as vibrant as before and she can told that his


    clothes are very expensive. She looked down at her own $29 shirt and felt like they were living in two


    different worlds.


    She and Uncle Ryan were like a sober dream.


    ...


    After Eloise left, Keh developed a bad habit of constantly checking his phone. But there was never


    a word from her.


    No greetings on holidays...


    He sometimes visited the rk family but didn''t ask about Eloise as he did not want to seem


    inappropriate. Kaleb looked into it and said that she went out to clear her head.


    At home, his mom would sometimes bring him noodles sprinkled withtrote at night, even though


    he didn''t like them. He ate them all, as if he was eating Eloise''s share too.


    He resumed being the admired Mr. Ryan, but his heart wasn''tplete anymore.


    He started to enjoy hanging out with Mr. Robinson and Ms. Harris because they remembered Eloise


    and would ask about her while they yed.


    He would smile and say, "Kids have short attention spans. They''re probably off watching the aurora


    with their friends now, they wouldn''t remember their Uncle Ryan!" His friends would agree. Keh


    would smile more warmly and calmly.


    But only he knew what it felt like to be heartbroken.


    ...


    Time passed.


    Ms. Harris was getting married and her fans arranged an exhibition for her. Keh attended. Ms.


    Harris and her fianc¨¦ were with him as they walked and talked about current events, but Ms. Harris


    noticed that Mr. Ryan seemed distracted. She was about to ask when she caught sight of someone in


    the distance.


    A tall person who vaguely resembled someone as seen from behind.


    She quickly called out to Keh, "Mr. Ryan, look, is that Eloise?"


    Eloise...


    Keh''s heartstrings were tugged.


    He followed the direction that Ms. Harris pointed to and saw a woman carrying arge stack of


    documents, weighing about 20 pounds. She was struggling to walk up the stairs.


    Keh asked Kaleb, "Can''t we use the elevator here?" Kaleb whispered, "The elevator is for guests,


    so movers usually avoid it." Keh nodded.


    But when he saw that person just now, he couldn''t help but think of his little girl. He had no idea where


    she was ying... He couldn''t resist calling her.


    Second floor of the theatre.


    A phone rang softly and the person carrying the documents dropped them.


    The mover cursed.


    Eloise whispered an apology and ducked into the bathroom to answer the phone. She heard her Uncle


    Ryan ask, "Are you having fun?"


    She mped her lips together, slowly slid down the wall with tears streaming down her face and


    nodded firmly. "Yes, having fun."


    Keh was silent for a long time before whispering, "That''s good. If that''s the case, breaking up was


    the right thing to do."


    She closed her eyes and made a sound of agreement. Keh hung up slowly. Her phone slipped


    from her hand and she cried alone in the bathroom for a long, long time... while Keh went to the


    next bathroom to wash his hands quietly.


    They were only separated by a wall...


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    ...


    Memories are like needles, piercing the heart with pain.


    Although she has returned to the rk family, the hardships they''ve endured often appear in her


    dreams.


    On the way back to the rk mansion...


    Eloise is quiet and doesn''t say anything. Kaleb wants to speak up, but doesn''t know what to say.


    When the car stops at the rk mansion, the rk family members are still there and they wee


    her with open arms. Emerson jumps over and calls her "Mommy."


    That fair skin and chestnut hair came from Keh''s genes...


    Eloise hugs her son tightly.


    Benjamin pats her shoulder and Madelyn hugs him, softly saying, "Don''t cry, brother will take care of


    you."

 Chapter 333 The Seven-Year Itch, Madelyn, Do You Still Love Me (1)

    Chapter 333 The Seven-Year Itch, Madelyn, Do You Still Love Me (1)


    Chapter 333 The Seven-Year Itch, Madelyn, Do You Still Love Me (1)


    Eloise cried sorrowfully and sought sce in Benjamin''s arms.


    Madelyn understood what was happening and gently stroked Eloise''s hair before exchanging a nce


    with Benjamin.


    She walked over to Alexander''s side and smiled politely at the uniformed personnel, expressing her


    gratitude. Alexander also sensed the situation and dismissed them.


    Finally, the house regained some semnce of calmness, except for Eloise''s suppressed weeping.


    Emerson was at a loss, so Madelyn went over and embraced him, speaking softly, "Mommy isn''t


    feeling well. How about Auntie spends time with you and ys?"


    Emerson lowered his head and said, "Daddy said to call you sister."


    Madelyn: ...


    She nced at Benjamin.


    Benjamin picked up Emerson and gently said to Madelyn, "I''ll take Emerson to the office, you stay with


    Eloise. It''ll be easier for youdies to talk."


    Madelyn nodded.


    She personally prepared some toys and snacks for Emerson, kissed him, and then closed the car door.


    Back at the mansion, Alexander sat on the couch smoking. He tapped the seat next to him, gesturing


    for Madelyn toe over, and said, "Your mother went to keep herpany first, Maddie,e talk to


    Daddy."


    Madelyn approached and took a seat.


    Alexander cared for her deeply, and there was no awkwardness in their conversation. He spoke softly,


    "Eloise being with your uncle, I actually approve of it. However, it seems Keh is in a difficult


    position."


    He spoke, and Madelyn listened quietly.


    After a long while, he whispered again, "If Keh can''t make her happy, no one else can."


    After saying that, he walked away.


    Madelyn sat alone there, drinking the coffee poured by the maid. It took her a long time to understand


    what Alexander meant, and she smiled lightly.


    Indeed, Alexander was a good father, very open-minded.


    She went upstairs to check on Eloise.


    After spending the entire morning talking with Eloise, she finally fell asleep. Madelyn gently covered her


    with a nket.


    When she went downstairs, her heart swelled like water. Over the past year, she couldn''t forget the


    scene of Eloise standing in line with Emerson to buy milk tea, waiting for a long time but only willing to


    buy one cup.


    She called Keh.


    Keh''s voice sounded exhausted but gentle, "How is she?"


    "She''s okay, just a bit sad."


    After contemting for a while, Madelyn finally asked the question she wanted to ask, "Uncle, is the


    news in the newspaper true? Are you really engaged to Miss Lan?"


    Keh fell silent for a moment and said softly, "Help me take care of her for another six months."


    Just half a year...


    Madelyn understood that it involved confidential matters, so she didn''t ask further questions and


    instead chatted about Emerson. He should have started preschool at this age, but Keh vehemently


    opposed it, insisting on letting him y at home for another year.


    In the afternoon at four o''clock, Madelyn picked up Everest and brought her home. Benjamin had


    returned early and brought Emerson back as well. The two children climbed onto the Morning Dew


    piano and yed, and he didn''t mind.


    After spending some time with them, Benjamin called for a servant, "Where''s Madelyn?"


    The servant smiled lightly, "Madelyn is preparing dinner for Miss and Young Master Emerson!"


    Benjamin''s heart warmed.


    Instead of immediately going to the kitchen, he first went to see Francis and then took a shower and


    changed into casual clothes.


    He walked into the kitchen, and the two servants tactfully exited. Benjamin approached Madelyn from


    behind, gently embracing her and mischievously kissing the nape of her neck, "Do you miss me?"


    Madelyn was arranging the dishes and said it was itchy and asked him not to be silly.


    "Yours is being made by the servants."


    Benjamin''s eyes deepened as he gazed at his wife.


    Madelyn was a perfect wife; she had harmonious rtionships with his parents and younger sister and


    took good care of the children, including maintaining her own figure and skin as before. When they had


    intimate moments as a couple, he never found it boring.


    However, he still felt dissatisfied.


    Benjamin didn''t know if it was the seven-year itch between them or if it was because he hadn''t regained


    his memories and Madelyn couldn''t find the feelings they once had.


    This ambiguity left him troubled.


    After dinner, as usual, he took care of Francis while Madelyn put Everest and Emerson to bed. Both of


    these children inherited the Ryan family''s genes, and it was adorable to see them sleeping side by


    side.


    Benjamin brought some work home.


    He worked in his study until 11 o''clock, feeling a bit tired when he came out. As he walked back to the


    bedroom, Madelyn was on the phone with someone, probably her ssmate. He could faintly hear the


    names Daniel and Vivian.


    When Benjamin entered, Madelyn hung up the phone.


    She looked at him and said, "Are you tired? Take a shower and go to sleep!"


    Just like usual, she went to the closet to get his clothes. Every piece of clothing there was meticulously


    ironed by her, and even the scent of theundry detergent was familiar to him.


    She was a gentle and virtuous wife, the kind that would put a man at ease.


    But Benjamin couldn''t find happiness in it. It all felt too mechanical. Madelyn was just ying the role of


    the perfect wife, taking care of him and the children, and engaging in marital intimacy with him.


    Whether she loved him or not, she seemed indifferent.


    She never asked about the part of his memory that he had lost.


    This feeling of being unnoticed and unloved grew day by day. He even began to suspect that he had


    some kind of mental illness and went to see a psychologist on his own.


    The doctor said he wasn''t sick, it was probably just ack of harmony in their married life.


    At night, as hey with Madelyn, he couldn''t help but wonder if twice a week was not enough for a man


    his age.


    Madelyn buried her face in the pillow.


    His mind wandered, and so did hers.


    "What are you thinking about?" Benjamin leaned over and kissed her.


    Madelyn gently wrapped her arms around his neck and softly hummed, "I''m thinking about what


    breakfast to make for Everest and Emerson tomorrow morning..."


    Benjamin quietly watched her for a while, then held her waist.


    That night''s affair came to an end.


    He got up and went to take a shower, while Madelyny on the bed, her forehead covered in tiny beads


    of sweat.


    A faintly hoarse voice came from the bathroom.


    She was quite surprised. Was Benjamin... doing that?


    Didn''t he just satisfy himself earlier?


    At this moment, as a wife, she shouldn''t pry into that privacy. She should give her husband dignity,


    especially considering how tired she was after a long day. She raised her hand to button up her


    pajamas, pulled up the nket, and fell asleep.


    Half an hourter, Benjamin emerged from the bathroom, feeling cool and refreshed.


    He looked at the woman sleeping in the bed, feeling aplex mix of emotions. He longed for her, but


    even the most passionate embrace seemed to go unanswered.


    In the past six months, their life together hadn''t been bad.


    But something was missing!


    He didn''t want Madelyn to inhale second-hand smoke, so he went to the study and lit a cigarette,


    smoking it slowly.


    Then he persuaded himself that this life was good, and he should be content.


    But the darkness in his heart grew deeper...


    Late at night, the door was pushed open.


    Everest, wearing a white dress, tiptoed in, hugging a pillow. She immediately climbed onto her father''s


    Benjamin let go of his worries and kissed his little one. "Why did youe over?"


    "Emerson snores so loud."


    Benjamin pinched her cheek. "Why do you call him Emerson?"


    Everest rested her little head on her father''s arm, then pulled the small nket around herself and


    gently closed her eyes. "Because Great-uncle Keh is his dad."


    Pride overflowed in Benjamin''s heart.


    He kissed the little girl in his arms, then carried her to the sofa andy down, with Everest nestled

    against his chest. Everest didn''t hold back either, using her tiny feet to scratch him like a washboard,


    tickling him.

    Chapter 334 The Seven-Year Itch, Madelyn, Do You Still Love Me? 2


    The next day, when he woke up, he saw Madelyn''s face.


    She was squatting by the sofa, tucking Everest''s little feet in.


    He must have discovered his secretst night, and there was something off in their gazes as a couple.


    But Madelyn was still gentle and considerate, asking, "Why did you sleep in the study with Everest?"


    Benjamin looked at her directly and hoarsely said after a long pause, "I was afraid of waking you up."


    It was a clear excuse, and they both knew it.


    Madelyn didn''t ask further, she just touched Everest''s head and said, "I''ll make breakfast."


    As she got up to leave, her arm was caught by him. Benjamin''s voice was low and suppressed,


    "Madelyn, I want to taste what you cook too."


    Madelyn was briefly stunned, but then smiled and agreed.


    She left, her figure slim and graceful. She seemed to know what he was up to.


    But if he didn''t say it, she wouldn''t give it to him.


    But if he did say it, would she give it to him?


    When Madelyn was making breakfast, Benjamin came in. He was neatly dressed, looking fresh, and


    carried a faint scent of aftershave.


    He leaned in close to Madelyn and asked for a good morning kiss.


    He lightly kissed behind her tender ear, his voice muffled and husky, "Did you hear itst night?"


    Madelyn was momentarily confused.


    She wanted to push him away, but Benjamin held onto her waist with one hand.


    Their bodies pressed so closely together that she could almost feel his desire. She couldn''t help but


    wonder, wasn''tst night enough for him?


    "We''re going to take Everest to schoolter, and you should go to the office too."


    He still refused to let her go, whispering, "Are you going to give me more excuses, Madelyn? Are you


    using these excuses to deceive your husband? Don''t you care about everything I''ve done? Including


    Charlotte''s letter, including my body, and the business dinners you never call about..."


    Finally, he asked, "Madelyn, do you still love me?"


    Madelyn was momentarily stunned.


    Because after they reconciled, he had been treating her well and never asked for anything.


    Now, he was asking for love...


    In this world, many things are within human reach, but love at their age seemed like a luxury. She still


    remembered how she used to yearn for his love.


    Now it seemed that he wasn''t satisfied.


    Madelyn gently stroked his handsome face. He looked charming and attractive, and his touch felt warm


    and within reach.


    She was content with their current life.


    She thought he was content too, but she didn''t expect him to be so persistent.


    Madelyn smiled softly, "Love, of course I do."


    Benjamin stared at her for a long time, then said softly, "I''ve asked Paisley to clear my schedule for a


    month. Our whole family will travel and visit different ces in the country."


    Madelyn frowned.


    "But Everest has school, and her piano practice can''t be neglected. And Francis is too young, and..."


    She mentioned many reasons but didn''t give a decisive answer.


    Benjamin''s gaze grew slightly cold.


    In fact, she hadn''t even considered traveling with him. Apart from their normal life, she didn''t have any


    expectations of being with him!


    She... didn''t love him!


    Benjamin just watched her quietly.


    After a while, he said, "Madelyn, let''s see a psychologist!"


    He believed that either he was sick or she had some psychological barriers.


    Madelyn refused. She turned around and continued making breakfast, speaking softly, "Ben, aren''t we


    doing fine now? Many couples... go through this."


    Benjamin didn''t embrace her again.


    He stood behind her and said in a muted voice, "Other people are other people, but we are ourselves."


    He had witnessed Madelyn''s passion for "Ben," while her feelings towards him were like those of a


    perfect and formic couple who treated each other with respect.


    After half a year had passed, Benjamin finally admitted that he had never truly gained her heart due to


    his insistence.


    In theirter life together, Madelyn continued to be as gentle and caring as before, ying the role of a


    good wife and mother, and of course, she would try her best to please him in bed...


    But Benjamin discovered that Madelyn no longer felt anything.


    Often times, he was passionate, but she remained indifferent, just cooperating with him...


    For a man, this was particrly discouraging.


    He could no longer bring her happiness.


    He dared not force her or demand that she fulfill her marital duties. The weekly sex life gradually


    became once a month.


    Their life became dull and nd, but at least their children were healthy.


    Benjamin realized that there was something mentally wrong with Madelyn, but she was unwilling to


    seek treatment.


    He treated her even better, fearing that one day she would leave him because of their dull life.


    As for the reunion with their ssmates, it was postponed for a month due to special circumstances,


    and by the time it was held, it was already close to October.


    Madelyn went shopping with Eloise.


    Eloise was now a well-known model with a good ie. She gradually became independent and


    moved out of the rks'' mansion with Emerson. Madelyn was surprised when she heard the news and


    found it somewhat unbelievable.


    However, she did not know about Eloise''s obsession.


    Because that person had said that he appreciated independent women, and the naive Eloise took it


    seriously.


    They sat down and drank coffee when they got tired from shopping, but Vivian happened to be there as


    well, which was a surprise.


    Vivian looked Madelyn up and down, gently pinched her face, and asked, "What do you eat? How


    care?"


    Madelyn did not really talk about their sex life now.


    She just smiled.


    Vivian mentioned the reunion and sighed softly, "It seems like it''s been several years since thest one.


    Madelyn, we don''t know what it will be like when we meet again!"


    Vivian talked about what she knew.


    "Do you remember Elizabeth? She has been wandering around for years and finally married a coal


    mine boss. After her older wife died, she finally settled down and is now quite proud of herself."


    "Daniel is still single!"


    ...


    Madelyn listened quietly.


    Eloise was also silent.


    This person, Daniel, seemed to be a stranger as if he had never existed.


    After they finished their coffee, Eloise left for something important, while Vivian had to pick up her son.


    Everest Kindergarten had an activity, so Madelyn decided to continue shopping on her own. She had


    some deep feelings about this reunion. She and Benjamin had first slept together on the night of a


    previous reunion.


    Women always remember their first time clearly.


    As she thought about old memories, she suddenly wanted to escape.


    She called Benjamin and asked him to pick up Everest, saying that she had something to take care of.


    There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.


    Finally, he agreed.


    Madelyn didn''t let the driver take her. She walked along the street slowly. She remembered that their


    apartment was just a couple of blocks away...


    The sky was turning dark.


    Under the neon lights, she saw the Ferris wheel, still there.


    She stood there silently, eyes glistening.


    At night, she opened the door to her apartment.


    Everything was the same as before, except for the Morning Dew nt that had been moved away.


    Madelyn sat quietly inside, and only in the silence of the night did she dare to ask herself:


    Is it true? Doesn''t she love Benjamin?


    Even if he treats her well, she stubbornly wears her wedding ring from the past and is unwilling to take


    it off.


    And she''s unwilling to start over with him!


    Her heart is filled with the past, rejecting the present Benjamin, treating him not as a husband but as a


    tool to piece everything together... is that right?


    Is that really how she feels?


    Late at night, she still sat motionless in the apartment.


    Maybe it was too tiring, and she needed to rest. Here, she didn''t need to y the role of a good wife


    and mother. She just needed to release her emotions and reminisce about the past...


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    In the darkness, Madelyn cried silently.


    The door opened quietly, and a beam of light shone in.


    She lifted her eyes gently and saw her husband standing by the door, holding a stic bag in his hand.


    She didn''t know what was inside, but she could smell the fragrance of food.


    Benjamin''s voice was gentle and calm, "The children are all asleep. Everest will be watching Francis.


    There are still servants in the house, so we''ll stay here tonight."


    Madelyn looked at him quietly.


    Benjamin wanted to turn on the light, but Madelyn whispered softly, "Don''t, don''t turn on the light!"


    She didn''t want to appear too disheveled in front of him.


    Benjamin closed the door and walked towards her in the dim light. He put down the things in his hand


    and gently hugged her, murmuring, "Madelyn... I''m sorry, really sorry!"


    He had neglected her.


    When she gave birth to Everest, she suffered from postpartum depression.


    Later, when she gave birth to Francis, he angered her again.


    Everyone thought she was strong, and she thought she could be, too. After they reconciled, it seemed


    like they were repairing their rtionship, but no one knew that Madelyn was actually sick. The more


    they hurriedly tried to mend their rtionship, the more severe her illness became, until one day she


    realized it too...


    Benjamin held her as she cried, feeling sad but gentle, "Don''t be afraid, I''ll stay with you. Shall we go to


    see a doctor tomorrow?"

    Chapter 335 The Seven-Year Itch, Madelyn, Do You Still Love Me (3)


    In the dim light, Madelyn leaned against him.


    Her cheek was pressed against his waist, which was actually a very intimate embrace.


    But she was extremely sad.


    After experiencing so much, she had forgotten the feeling of loving him. She immersed herself in her


    own world, thinking that if she yed the role of a good wife and mother, they could go back to how


    things were before.


    But it turned out that she hadn''t moved on at all...


    Benjamin held her gently, patting her softly.


    Later, they had dinner. Madelyn was worried that the children wanted to go home, but Benjamin turned


    off the lights again. He held her andy on the sofa together, their bodies close to each other, close


    enough for her to smell the faint tobo scent on him.


    His voice was hoarse, "Madelyn, let me tell you about the past."


    This apartment held many memories for them.


    Beautiful ones and not so beautiful ones, he wanted to hear them all.


    Madelyn nestled against his chest and whispered, "You must have read that diary countless times and


    memorized it by now!"


    Benjamin chuckled lightly.


    He lowered his head, leaning in to look at her, his prominent nose touching hers.


    "Do you know how I came to like you?" he asked.


    Madelyn shook her head gently. She really didn''t know!


    Benjamin gently caressed her delicate cheek, his voice even more hoarse, "At the time, I was fighting a


    roughly knew how we met, but I couldn''t quite ept the fact that I had a wife... Those few days, I was


    thinking about how to send you away. But when I returned to the country and saw you at the airport..."


    "I didn''t intentionally remember your appearance, but at the airport, I recognized you at first nce."


    Madelyn asked him why.


    He suddenly smiled, his lips brushing against hers as he slowly spoke, "Because you''re beautiful! I''m


    not easily moved by emotions, but when I saw you pregnant, I knew that if I had a wife, she would


    definitely look like you."


    Madelyn had always been dependent on his aesthetics.


    Whether it was before or after the amnesia.


    He admitted that he was attracted to her based on her looks. Otherwise, it wouldn''t have been so easy


    for them to be husband and wife. But the first step in a rtionship between a man and a woman


    was visual attraction, followed by emotional connection.


    He didn''t hide this from Madelyn.


    If he truly liked her, it was after she signed the divorce papers, after he saw the diary and chased her to


    the cemetery, after he witnessed her putting on the wedding ring... It had a tremendous impact on him.


    From that moment on, he was afraid of losing her.


    He talked about his many psychological processes, not knowing if Madelyn heard them or not. In any


    case, as he lowered his head, she had already fallen asleep in his arms, her face calm and peaceful.


    Benjamin kissed her lips gently and whispered, "Good night."


    The next morning, early in the morning.


    He took her back to the vi, tidying everything up before the children woke up, following the routine as


    usual.


    Everest finished breakfast and climbed into the car.


    She held a small box in her hand, filled with beautiful cherry tomatoes that she nned to share with


    Edward.


    In the hall, Benjamin pinched Madelyn''s ear and whispered, "Go change your clothes."


    Madelyn hesitated.


    He leaned over and kissed her, his gaze deepening. In the end, Madelyn went upstairs to change her


    clothes and joined him in sending Everest to kindergarten.


    At the kindergarten, Everest unbuckled her seat belt and hopped out of the car.


    Edward was in line.


    He was handsome, and the little girls in the kindergarten liked to stand in front or behind him. Everest


    ran over and boldly cut in line.


    Edward grabbed her little arm and made her stand properly.


    He walked to the back by himself.


    But he took her backpack and cherry tomatoes with him.


    Everest was initially sad, but now she became happy again. She walked confidently, with a determined


    look on her face, her chestnut-colored hair shining brightly...


    Madelyn smiled rarely.


    She leaned against Benjamin and said softly, "Everest really takes after you!"


    Benjamin gently embraced her shoulders.


    After getting in the car, he fastened his seatbelt and turned to look at her. Madelyn smiled lightly and


    said, "We agreed on moving forward, and I won''t go back on my word."


    Benjamin reached out to touch her chestnut-colored hair and pulled her closer, resting her head against


    his. He whispered, "Madelyn, I''m not just doing this for that."


    Madelyn felt depressed, she needed a healthy state of mind.


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    He was afraid she might misunderstand. Madelyn gently pushed him away, sitting up straight with a


    blush on her face. "I understand," she said.


    Benjamin looked at her deeply. These days, he was always unsure and worried. He really doubted if


    the doctor made a mistake and if he was the one who was truly sick, not Madelyn.


    When they arrived at the clinic, it was their scheduled appointment time.


    Benjamin led Madelyn inside, and the doctor asked them some mundane questions about their daily


    life as a couple. Then, the doctor asked Benjamin to wait outside while she talked to Madelyn alone.


    The doctor was gentle and did not pry into Madelyn''s privacy. She simply let Madelyn vent and express


    her feelings.


    The content of their conversation would remain unknown to Benjamin without Madelyn''s consent.


    In the dim light andfortable reclining chair, Madelyn slowly rxed. She spoke softly to the doctor


    about her emotions and her feelings towards Benjamin.


    "My husband has lost five years of memories."


    "I know he loves me! But maybe because of too many disappointments, I can''t easily ept his


    goodness anymore. I always feel that when I let down my guard and love him again, misfortune and


    betrayal wille back to me."


    "He helped a woman I disliked, and I forgave him generously. I even took on that responsibility myself...


    I thought I did well and wouldn''t mind the past, but whenever we have intimacy, Eleanor''s and


    Charlotte''s faces always float into my mind. I always wonder if I''m not his first choice. If Eleanor and


    Charlotte were good girls, would our marriage still hold?"


    "Doctor, I don''t believe he loves me."


    "Our intimate life as a couple is also problematic. When I realized this, I became somewhat unable to


    ept him. When he gets close to me, my body instinctively rejects him..."


    The doctor asked softly, "How often do you engage in intimate activities as a couple now?"


    Madelyn answered hesitantly, "asionally, once a month."


    The doctor fell silent. Madelyn raised her head, tears flowing down her face. She became somewhat


    agitated. "I don''t even know who to me."


    ...


    The doctor gently pressed her hand,forting her tenderly. "Mrs. rk, all of that is in the past."


    Under the doctor''s constion, Madelyn slowly calmed down.


    The doctor suggested she take a nap for a while... After Madelyn fell asleep, the doctor walked out.


    Benjamin stood at the door, expressionless. Upon seeing the doctor emerge, he hurriedly approached


    her. "Where''s my wife?"


    The doctor did not reveal Madelyn''s privacy. She softly discussed with Benjamin, "Mrs. rk is under a


    lot of pressure. She always wants to achieve perfection, but in reality, there are many unresolved


    issues between you two. It''s important for you as a couple to open your hearts slowly."


    "Do you have any suggestions?"


    The doctor looked at him and said, very softly, "I''ll prescribe some medication for her to take. When her


    condition improves, you can consider having another child. Of course, during pregnancy, as a husband,


    you need to be considerate towards her. Perhaps it can improve your rtionship as a couple."


    Benjamin nodded.


    The doctor contemted for a moment and then spoke, "Try to help her rx, and don''t confine her


    within the family." Benjamin paused for a moment...

    Chapter 336 The Seven-Year Itch, Madelyn, Do You Still Love Me (4)


    Madelyn woke up and saw Benjamin by her side. He sat next to her, gently stroking her chestnut hair, a


    gesture that was quite intimate. She felt a little ufortable and sat up, asking, "How long have I


    been asleep?"


    Benjamin withdrew his hand and stared at her for a while before finally smiling, "A little over an hour."


    Madelyn got up and put on her shoes, asking, "Did I interrupt anything you were doing?"


    He held her hand. Madelyn looked at him and asked, "What''s wrong?" Benjamin raised his hand and


    yfully pinched her nose, saying, "It''s nothing if I''m a little dyed because of my wife!" Madelyn


    Just waking up, she felt particrly soft, and it had been a long time since he had kissed her.


    Regardless of whether it was the right ce or time, he couldn''t help but lean in and kiss her.


    "Benjamin..."


    She leaned against his shoulder, reminding him.


    But he couldn''t resist, gently parting her lips and deepening their kiss.


    After a long time, he finally felt satisfied. Madelyn weakly leaned against his shoulder, her cheeks red


    from the kiss. Benjamin held her slender waist. He wanted more, but he didn''t dare to touch her too


    easily, afraid that she would be repulsed. Madelyn could sense his desire and whispered softly, "Let''s


    do it tonight!"


    At his age, it wasn''t good to hold back all the time.


    Besides, she had no intention of divorcing him, nor did she have no feelings for him at all. Benjamin


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    turned his head to say softly, "Can we go to thepany? I''ll apany you for a nap at noon and


    leave early in the afternoon to pick up Everest."


    Madelyn thought for a moment and declined, "Francis still needs to be taken care of." Benjamin was a


    little disappointed but still drove her home first. The golden Bentley Continental GT slowly left the clinic


    parking lot...


    At the clinic parking lot, a ck Benz opened its door, and someone got out.


    Dressed in morous attire, she seemed like a richdy.


    It was none other than Elizabeth.


    She sneered coldly. She had seen Madelyn at the clinic earlier and thought she was mistaken. It turned


    out to be her!


    Everyone thought that Madelyn was living the best life, but it turned out she needed to see a


    psychologist.


    The ss reunion wasing soon...


    If Madelyn''s privacy were exposed, who would envy her?


    But this clinic was high-end, and patient confidentiality was not easily obtained. Elizabeth spent arge


    sum of money to win over a nurse in the medical records room and obtained the information.


    Postpartum depression, a marriagecking trust, intimacy only once a month.


    These things made Elizabeth want tough out loud.


    Seeing herughter, the nurse felt a little scared. Elizabeth dismissed her with a few words. Once the


    person left, she sat in the car and dialed a number. "Is this Gredax Daily? I have something that might


    interest you!"


    ...


    After hanging up the phone, she smirked. Was there a need for a marriage that reopened old wounds?


    Would a man like Benjamin still stay with a wife who had a psychological illness? A man like him could


    have any woman he wanted.


    In his prime, there were plenty of women willing to have his children! Elizabeth couldn''t help but feel


    delighted at the thought. She looked forward to seeing Madelyn''s downfall and Vivian''s heartache. Only


    when the two of them were in pain would she truly feel satisfied.


    In the afternoon, Gredax Daily reported this news.


    They posted powerful screenshots and an audio recording of Madelyn.


    Indeed, it was a medical record from a certain clinic, filled with mentions of postpartum depression,


    Eleanor Charlotte, and the couple''s intimate life, among other hidden details...


    "Shattered Marriages in High Society"


    "High Society Doesn''t Believe in Love"


    "The President of Everest Group''s Secret Affair"


    ...


    Thrilling headlines instantly hit the hot search, apanied by solid evidence from the recorded


    conversation. Benjamin and his wife''s privacy was exposed without reservation. Gredax, a storm of


    bloodshed ensued.


    Everyone was waiting for Benjamin''s response because his response could directly impact the stocks


    of the Huo family and Everest Group...


    Paisley pushed open the door to the CEO''s office, where Benjamin was on the phone.


    On the other end of the line was Madelyn.


    As the parties involved, they couldn''t possibly be unaware of the news.


    But Benjamin didn''t speak directly about it. He just said gently to her, "I''ll pick up Everest this afternoon.


    You stay at home. By the way, has Francis finished eating his supplementary food? I''ll buy some on my


    way back after picking up Everest. Do you need anything else?"


    On the other side, Madelyn sat in front of the Morning Dew piano.


    She saw the hot search and knew what Benjamin meant by making the call.


    There was a brief silence on the phone...


    After a while, Benjamin spoke softly again, "I will hold a press conference this afternoon. Madelyn, don''t


    be afraid. You can live however you want. Leave the rest to me."


    Madelyn yed a section of piano with one hand and then paused, "I want to know who did this."


    Benjamin nodded.


    Then he hung up the phone, but continued staring at his cellphone without knowing what he was


    thinking.


    Paisley''s voice tensed up, "Mr. rk, I found out that it was initially released by a media outlet called


    Gredax Daily, but we haven''t found any suspicious financial transactions from them so far."


    Benjamin leaned back on the leather chair, turned slightly, and looked up, "Find out who''s responsible


    as the chief editor. Let the security department take him out for a meal and extract information from his


    mouth... If he doesn''t talk, let him continue eating."


    Paisley understood him the best.


    She knew that Benjamin was truly angry this time, and the person who yed dirty tricks behind the


    scenes would definitely suffer.


    Benjamin said again, "Prepare for the press conference."


    Paisley immediately went to handle it.


    As the others left, Benjamin was about to call Eloise to apany Madelyn when he received a call


    from his father.


    Alexander was particrly furious.


    He scolded Benjamin harshly, saying he was useless and couldn''t protect his wife.


    After a moment, he softened his tone, "Your mother has been there."


    Benjamin''s heart softened.


    Alexander discussed with him how to respond, and in the end, he asked somewhat unpleasantly, "Ben,


    tell your father the truth: did that injection back then affect your performance? Otherwise, why are you


    so useless!"


    Once a month...


    Any woman would run away, wouldn''t she?


    Benjamin felt both angry and amused, "I do have the ability, but Dad, are you asking me to be a solo


    performer?"


    Intimate matters between a couple require mutual consent, that''s what makes it interesting.


    If he acted unterally, Madelyn wouldn''t find satisfaction, and he couldn''t bear that.


    Alexander was just testing his son, and now that he had his answer, he felt relieved in his heart. As the


    saying goes, as long as there is still hope, there will always be a chance to recover as long as there are


    no physical issues.


    He instructed his son again, "In the future, be more considerate to your wife. Take care of things at


    home inside and out, so she can find time to have coffee and watch movies... If it really doesn''t work,


    your mother and I will take care of Francis. You just focus on taking over the Huo family."


    Benjamin hung up the phone directly.


    He wanted to make another call to Madelyn, but he felt reassured when he thought about his mother


    passing away.


    Half an hourter, Paisley came in, "Mr. rk, the press conference is about to begin. All the


    mainstream media from Gredax are here. Don''t worry, I have everything under control. They won''t dare


    to write nonsense."


    Benjamin stood up and straightened his shirt.


    Everest Group Conference Hall No.1.


    Hundreds of reporters aimed their cameras and long-range guns at the podium, and people below were


    discussing.


    The news was just too explosive!


    They were all guessing whether Benjamin would announce a divorce directly, or if he would pretend


    that everything was fine with Mrs. rk and put on a show of affection?


    The door to the conference room slowly opened.


    Benjamin walked in, looking dignified and not at all like a divorced man.


    Before the reporters could ask any questions, he spoke into the microphone.


    "Firstly, regarding the leakage of my wife''s privacy, I reserve the right to pursue legal actions."


    "Secondly, I will not divorce Mrs. rk."


    "And third..."


    ...


    Benjamin faced the hundreds of cameras, gave a slight smile, and his eyes were full of tenderness.


    "Mrs. rk, whether as a husband or a lover, I will strive to do my best! We have a lifetime to explore,


    and I believe that one day, you will regain interest in me as a person and in this body."


    Amotion ensued below: Was this Benjamin''s confession?


    But really, isn''t this shameless?!


    Can one say such things?


    Benjamin continued to smile, "Our marriage may have some problems, but what does that matter?


    Because I will never fall in love with someone else. My household registration will forever only have you


    and our children... Mrs. rk, I am transferring all my assets to you. If you''re not happy with that, not


    just once a month, but once a year is also your right... And I will always remain loyal to our marriage."


    An Everest Groupwyer came over and settled all of Benjamin''s assets.


    Everything was gifted to his wife on the spot.


    The reporters were somewhat stunned. It was only when they went back to write their articles that they


    realized Benjamin had said so much, but it could be summarized in just a few words:


    "Our marital affairs are none of your business!"

 Chapter 337 Tonight, Benjamin Was Especially Thoughtful (1)

    Chapter 337 Tonight, Benjamin Was Especially Thoughtful (1)


    This storm was calmed down by Benjamin''s voluntary act of being a submissive puppy.


    His intention was clear. Even if Madelyn had a mental illness, even if their rtionship was troubled, he


    was willing to apany her all the way.


    The wind shifted, and Benjamin became an extraordinary good man.


    The stocks of the Huo family and Everest Group didn''t decline but instead rose. Benjamin wasn''t


    happy. After the press conference, he locked himself in his office and repeatedly listened to Madelyn''s


    inner monologue. She said...


    "My husband lost five years of memories with us."


    "I know he likes me! But maybe because of too many disappointments, I dare not easily ept his


    kindness. I always feel that when I let go of my guard and love him again, misfortune and betrayal will


    fall upon me once more."


    "He helped a woman I disliked, and I forgave her generously..."


    ...


    Benjamin listened to it repeatedly many times.


    He remembered that night when he helped Charlotte and saw Eleanor for thest time.


    He bid farewell to the past.


    He thought that from then on, there would be no barriers between him and Madelyn.


    But he didn''t know that Madelyn''s generosity was only apromise, tormenting herself. They lived


    together, but she had never been happy. Benjamin gently closed his eyes, and there were tears in the


    corners.


    At this moment, the phone on his desk rang. He looked at it.


    It was from the clinic.


    He answered, and the director personally apologized to him: "Mr. rk, I''m sorry, due to internal


    reasons, there was a privacy breach concerning Mrs. rk. We have already fired that employee..."


    Benjamin''s tone was indifferent: "I will sue her."


    After hanging up the phone, he looked at the time. It was almost time for Everest to finish school.


    He personally drove and picked up Everest.


    At the kindergarten gate, Everest waved goodbye reluctantly to Edward and was hugged into the


    golden Bentley Continental GT by her father.


    Benjamin buckled her seatbelt.


    Everest suddenly hugged her father''s neck and whispered, "Today, the other kids said that Edward''s


    dad has a mistress. Daddy, what is a mistress?"


    Benjamin was somewhat surprised.


    He patted Everest''s little head, "You''ll understand when you grow up."


    With her tea-colored curls fluttering, Everest blinked her eyes, "Daddy, do you have a mistress?"


    Benjamin lightly tapped her head.


    Seeing that Dad was not happy, Everest didn''t ask any more questions and obediently sat in the back


    seat.


    Benjamin promised to buy baby food for Francis, so he drove to a well-known mother and baby store in


    the city center. He got out of the car with Everest and carefully picked suitable items for Francis.


    Everest wore a beautiful fluffy skirt and followed suitably.


    She surprisingly knew exactly what Francis liked and gave opinions quite well.


    Benjamin looked at her fair and tender face and suddenly bent down to lift Everest up and gave her a


    kiss.


    Amidst the bustling crowd, Everest felt a little embarrassed and held onto his neck, "Daddy, what are


    you doing?"


    Benjamin pretended to continue selecting items and casually asked, "Everest, has Daddy ever told you


    that he really likes you?"


    Everest tilted her little head, "I''ve heard it countless times!"


    She was tired of hearing it, not at all fresh!


    She thought for a moment and added, "Daddy''s most favorite is still Mommy!"


    Then it''s her, and then Francis!


    Everest stayed in her father''s arms, feeling a bit spoiled. She hugged her father''s neck tightly and took


    the opportunity to make a request, "Daddy, wash the baby with me tonight. I saw you washing


    Mommy."


    Benjamin picked out the items and patted her bottom.


    "When you grow up, let your husband wash you!"


    Everest clenched her small fist, "Then Francis has to wash himself too, otherwise when he grows up,


    he''ll let his wife wash him."


    "Everyone around heard andughed."


    Benjamin, somewhat proud as a father, ced two boxes of baby food on the cash register. Many


    young mothers recognized Benjamin''s identity, coupled with the explosive news today, the women


    blushed and were somewhat afraid to look at him...


    "Everest: Daddy seems very famous!"


    ...


    Before dinner, Benjamin drove Everest home.


    In the hall, Eloise held Francis, while Emersony on the side curiously watching.


    His mother was in the kitchen with Madelyn preparing dinner.


    The dim yellow light made Madelyn''s profile particrly soft, and her light purple long dress


    entuated her slim waist.


    Benjamin walked over, hugged her waist, and offered her flowers- a bouquet of champagne roses.


    Madelyn was a bit surprised but no woman would dislike flowers.


    She murmured thanks, then found a crystal vase to carefully put them in. Benjamin watched her busy


    herself and pulled out a cigarette to y with in his fingers.


    He chatted with her, "I bought carrot-vored baby food for Francis."


    Madelyn blinked lightly, "Did Everest pick it?"


    Benjamin smiled, "How did you know? Did I wear a radar?"


    Madelyn chuckled and continued to deal with the ingredients softly, "Francis doesn''t like carrots.


    But Everest often educates him not to be picky, though I don''t know if Francis understands."


    Brianna alsoughed. Benjamin just looked at Madelyn straight, his voice hoarse after a while, "I''ll go


    buy two more boxes tomorrow." Madelyn gave an approving noise.


    After dinner, Everest took out his fairy tale book and began to teach as a little teacher. In front of him,


    Francis and Emerson sat in a row... They imitated him quite well.


    Madelyn and Eloise followed Brianna to learn some women''s work. The atmosphere was very warm,


    as if nothing had happened today.


    But Benjamin knew that Madelyn cared a lot. She just didn''t say anything.


    At 8:30, there was the sound of a car in the yard, and two people walked in after a while. Keh and


    Kaleb.


    When he came in, his gaze fell on Eloise''s face.


    Kaleb smiled, "I heard about today''s incident. Mr. Ryan is very angry, and I came to see if there''s


    anything I can do to help."


    Eloise''s lips trembled, and for a long time, she didn''t say a word.


    At this point, Benjamin spoke up, "I invited my uncle toe here. There may be something that he


    needs to help with." Keh nodded.


    He took off his coat, walked over and squatted in front of Emerson, "Why didn''t you call me Dad?"


    Emerson timidly replied. After a while, he dared to hug Keh and whispered, "Mom said we have to


    call you Great-uncle Keh outside."


    Keh looked at Eloise with some unclear meaning in his eyes. When he spoke to his son again, he


    spoke softly, "This is not outside." Emerson hesitantly called him Dad. Keh took a few candies out


    of his pocket and gave them to the children. These candies were Eloise''s favorite before, and he


    habitually carried a few with him.


    Several men went upstairs to talk.


    In the study, the butler brought coffee and then went downstairs on his own.


    Keh drank a sip of coffee and frowned, "What''s going on? Howe someone has a problem with


    Madelyn for no reason?"


    Benjamin pulled up the video.


    Keh slowly spoke up after hearing this, "Elizabeth, Madelyn''s college ssmate! In the past, she


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    had an unclear rtionship with Vivian''s husband, and now she''s with a coal boss! She''s the one who


    bribed that nurse."


    After hearing this, Keh had a rough idea and gave a faint smile, "You couldn''t handle the media, so


    you came to me, right?"


    Benjamin admitted, "That person is in the Southwest and has no connection to me here. But my uncle


    has control over those resources, so your help would be much more effective than mine."


    Kaleb echoed with a smile, "Mr. rk, you''vee to the right person!"


    Keh nced at him, then spoke to Benjamin, "I''ll handle this matter."


    Benjamin poured coffee for him again.


    After finishing his coffee and standing up, Keh showed the attitude of an elder, "I''ll take care of the


    matters outside, but as for the emotions of the women in the house, I can''t solve them for you, Ben...


    You shouldn''t worry too much."


    Benjamin nodded and saw them off downstairs.

    Chapter 338 Tonight, Benjamin Was Especially Thoughtful (2)


    The first-floor lobby.


    The servants were packing up their things. Brianna, Eloise, and Emerson were no longer there.


    Keh couldn''t help but feel disappointed as he took a few steps outside and called out softly,


    "Eloise."


    Under the cover of night, Brianna had already gotten into the car.


    She sat with Emerson on herp while Eloise was about to get into the car. Keh approached,


    holding the car door and gently touched Emerson''s head, saying tenderly, "Listen to your mother."


    Emerson nodded obediently.


    He looked like the Ryan family, but with a gentle temperament, following Eloise''s lead. Keh


    exchanged a few words with Brianna before she said to her daughter, "You should talk to him!"


    Brianna was open-minded, perhaps due to Alexander''s influence, she could roughly understand her


    daughter''s thoughts, so she simply didn''t interfere with them.


    And so, Keh dragged Eloise into the car.


    He drove himself for a while before Eloise couldn''t help but taunt him, "Mr. Ryan, why are you still


    looking for me? Aren''t you most concerned about your career? Aren''t you willing to sacrifice even your


    own body for it?"


    Although she knew that he didn''t love Amelia.


    But it still bothered her.


    He said he admired Amelia''s independence. Hearing these sour words, Keh smiled faintly and


    asked, "Are you jealous?"


    Eloise refused to say more and leaned back in her seat, quietly watching the neon lights outside the


    car.


    She didn''t want anything to do with him anymore, but they had a child together.


    When the car stopped, her eyes felt a bit sour. Looking around, she realized he had brought her to the


    riverside. In a low voice, she asked, "Keh, what do you want?"


    Keh turned his head to look at her.


    He looked at his little girl, although she was still beautiful, she was no longer as youthful as before. The


    traces of time could be seen from the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.


    But he still loved her.


    Imitating her, he leaned back in his seat and his hand found hers, gently caressing it.


    He said, "Madelyn called me. She told me about what happened to you in recent years."


    There were some things he found difficult to say.


    Eloise was born into wealth and if it wasn''t for her liking him, Uncle Ryan, she probably wouldn''t have


    experienced hardships in her life. It could be said that all her trials and tribtions came from him.


    Eloise wanted to retract her hand, but he didn''t let go.


    He gently wiped away the tears from the corner of her eye and softly said, "I broke off the engagement,


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    fearing that it would upset you."


    Her heart trembled for a moment, but she remained silent. Keh didn''t exin further; he just took


    this rare opportunity to lightly embrace her shoulder.


    Their son and she had grown up, but they had only been together for half a year and were still living


    apart.


    He felt guilty towards her, almost regretful.


    But when he thought about it, he had no other choice...


    ...


    At night, Benjamin put Everest to sleep.


    Returning to the bedroom, Madelyn had just finished bathing. Her whole body was rxed, and she sat


    in front of the dressing table applying skincare products. Benjamin couldn''t help but approach her from


    behind, holding her waist, and softly whispered, "Finally, we can be alone together."


    Madelyn leaned against his shoulder and met his gaze through the mirror.


    Their eyes locked.


    Benjamin leaned in and gently kissed her... Madelyn was a bit surprised, but she rxed her body and


    responded to his kiss. He seemed to be somewhat passionate, and she naturally sat on hisp, kissing


    his chin.


    Benjamin stopped the car.


    But his hand still lingered, lightly stroking her waist, and his gaze deepened. "Madelyn, let''s talk."


    Madelyn knew what he wanted.


    But he didn''t take the initiative, and she couldn''t continue either. She simply leaned in his embrace and


    softly responded with an "Mmm," then she heard him mention Elizabeth''s name.


    Elizabeth, it''s quite an old name! Benjamin gently stroked her hair and whispered, "If you don''t want to


    go to the ss reunion, then don''t go. It''s better not to be unhappy."


    On such nights, conversations between spouses were intimate. Madelyn nestled against his shoulder.


    She spoke softly, "She was the one who did something wrong. Should I hide at home?"


    Since the incident, she had remained calm.


    She also wanted to escape because no woman wants others to know about what happens in bed, but


    Madelyn is not just herself, she is also a mother.


    She could hide, but Everest still had to go to school, and Francis would too in the future.


    Therefore, no matter how difficult it was, she had to face it.


    Her voice was tender, "Besides, don''t I still have you?"


    Benjamin felt touched in his heart. He couldn''t help but kiss her cheek, then moved forward to her lips,


    his voice muffled, "Madelyn, do you still trust me? Our rtionship hasn''t deteriorated to that point, has


    it?"


    In his words, there was a longing for love.


    Madelyn could clearly hear it, so she let him kiss her.


    She thought, she and Benjamin should always have a healthy mental state.


    She tilted her face up slightly and softly murmured, "Hmm."


    She was wearing a champagne-colored silk pajama. He always liked her body, and tonight she was so


    soft that he couldn''t resist, especially since he hadn''t touched her in a month...


    Benjamin carried Madelyn and walked straight to the bed.


    Her body sank into the soft bed, and he looked down at her. In a hoarse voice, he said, "Madelyn, let''s


    give it a try."


    Madelyn gently closed her eyes.


    Unlike usual, he didn''t consider himself, he just wanted her to feelfortable.


    Madelyn found it difficult to get into it, but he kept holding her face and softly asking how she felt... He


    was so considerate that it made Madelyn want to cry. Finally, she hugged his shoulders and whispered,


    "Ben, I''m fine!"


    She hoped he would finish quickly and be satisfied.


    Benjamin kissed her forehead and gently licked the tears from the corners of her eyes. How could he,


    her man, not sense it? Heforted her for a long, long time, until Madelyn was about to fall asleep,


    before he quietly got out of bed.


    The sound of running water came from the bathroom...


    Madelyn gently opened her eyes.


    She turned to the side, resting her cheek on the pillow, and listened to the hoarse voiceing from


    the bathroom.


    Saying that she felt nothing would be a lie.


    When a man is willing to endure for you, it shows how much he values you.


    There were some things Madelyn couldn''t change, but she wanted to make him happier, at least more


    normal...

 Chapter 339 Tonight, Benjamin Was Especially Thoughtful (3)

    Chapter 339 Tonight, Benjamin Was Especially Thoughtful (3)


    Chapter 339 Tonight, Benjamin Was Especially Thoughtful (3)


    Benjamin returned to bed.


    He sensed Madelyn''s steady breathing and knew that she was awake.


    "Why aren''t you sleeping?" he leaned over and kissed her.


    Madelyn leaned against his chest, her slender fingers gliding across the white pillow under the dim


    light. She whispered, "Actually, you don''t have to endure like this. I''m not that sensitive to cold."


    She could feel it too.


    Benjamin held her waist tighter, not saying a word. He knew that Madelyn could sense it a little, but it


    was enough for her to stop thinking about it. Unlike truly in love couples, when something is enough,


    they still feel it''s not enough.


    He wished they could embrace all night long.


    His body felt cold, but it wasfortable leaning against her.


    He gently whispered in her ear, "Madelyn, tell me anything you want. I am your husband, and I will


    listen to everything you say... I won''t do anything you don''t like."


    Madelyn fell silent.


    He had already heard what she said to the therapist.


    Benjamin felt a bit nervous.


    He was afraid of triggering her by mentioning it, but after a while, Madelyn murmured, "Ben, help me


    find another therapist, and from now on, I''ll go by myself."


    They had two children and no intention of getting a divorce.


    When there is an illness, it needs to be treated.


    However, as a woman, Madelyn didn''t want her husband to know about those things. Some wounds


    needed to be licked and healed slowly by herself.


    Benjamin agreed.


    Before falling asleep, he gently whispered in her ear, "Tomorrow morning, I''ll take Everest for a run."


    ...


    Madelyn''s wounds were torn open again.


    She didn''t avoid it and went to see the therapist Benjamin found again. There was some progress, but


    the effect was minimal. Perhaps, as the doctor said, they needed to have another child or they needed


    time.


    Vivian was worried about her and invited her for coffee.


    At the dessert shop on the first floor of a five-star hotel, Vivian smiled and pushed a piece of pastry


    towards her. "Try this signature dish, if it''s delicious, let''s pack one for Everest."


    Madelyn took a bite.


    She smiled and said, "It''s really good, especially the matcha vor."


    Vivian immediately waved her hand and ordered two more, asking the staff to pack them.


    She did everything skillfully, and Madelyn stared at her intently. When Vivian noticed Madelyn''s gaze,


    she reached out and touched her own face, "Why are you looking at me like that? It''s creepy."


    Madelyn stirred her coffee lightly and smiled, "Vivian, we''ve known each other for twelve years."


    Vivian was visibly taken aback.


    Twelve years...


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    She gently touched her own face, finally understanding why Madelyn had that sentiment just now... It


    could be said that during their university days, Vivian was indeed the most beautiful one among them.


    When she was with Jackson, she enjoyed life without any responsibilities.


    After marrying Grayson and having a son in recent years, she often sighed at herself in the mirror,


    feeling less slender and having a rounder face...


    But Madelyn hardly changed, she remained slender.


    No wonder Benjamin couldn''t let go of her, he couldn''t touch her but also couldn''t let go. Vivian couldn''t


    say whether this was good or bad for the moment.


    Just as the two of them were sighing, someone walked out of the elevator.


    A familiar face, dressed quite luxuriously, and apanied by a personal assistant like a celebrity.


    It was Elizabeth!


    Elizabeth was also surprised that Madelyn dared toe out.


    With all the scandals flying around, wasn''t she afraid of being pointed at?


    She believed she had covered her tracks perfectly. Besides, even if Madelyn knew it was her doing, so


    what? What could she do to herself? Her family, the rks, were in the coal mining business in the


    southwest, and no one could touch them.


    Elizabeth walked over. It was clearly early autumn, but she was wearing an expensive fur coat.


    She sat opposite Madelyn.


    In her hand, she held a long, slender cigarette.


    The server quietly reminded the woman, "Ma''am, smoking is not allowed in our store."


    Elizabeth smiled and said, "How provincial!"


    After the others left, she looked at Madelyn and Vivian with a self-assured smile, "What a coincidence,


    old ssmates! Vivian, you''ve only been married for a few years and you must weigh around 110


    pounds now. Doesn''t your second husband mind? And Madelyn...Benjamin is in his prime, do you think


    he would be willing to stay faithful to you? He won''t cheat when he''s out there?"


    Vivian''s weight may have changed, but her temper had not.


    She really wanted to p this despicable woman!


    Madelyn stopped her and smiled lightly at Elizabeth, "Ms. Dn, you don''t need to worry about that!


    Now that Ms. Dn has achieved good results, why doesn''t she stay at home and take care of her own


    husband instead of constantly worrying about other people''s husbands? Hasn''t she been able to


    change her old habits even after getting married?"


    Elizabeth was furious, Madelyn''s mouth!


    In a fit of anger, she wanted to say something even more hurtful, but her arm was suddenly grabbed.


    As she looked up, it turned out to be Daniel.


    Daniel was wearing a business suit and clearly came to discuss business. His gaze was very mixed at


    the moment.


    It had been a long time since Elizabeth had seen him, and she murmured, "Daniel!"


    Daniel dragged her out of the dessert shop.


    Vivian watched the rough scene and whispered to Madelyn, "See, this is called using one thing to


    counter another! I really want to see Daniel sleep with her and catch her coal husband cheating."


    Madelyn shot her a nce...


    Vivian muttered under her breath, "She deserves it for bullying you. Even if you don''t say, I know she''s


    the one responsible for it. There are few people worse than her in this world."


    Madelyn smiled lightly and slowly drank half a cup of coffee.


    Hotel emergency exit.


    Daniel pushed Elizabeth against the wall and stared fiercely at her, and Elizabeth stared back at him.


    They were considered old lovers.


    But their reunion was not very pleasant.


    After a long time, Elizabeth sneered, "Daniel, you''re really persistent. Why can''t you forget about her?


    Do you know that she and Benjamin have a barrier between them, and your heart is starting to beat


    again? I''ll tell you, even if Benjamin can''t touch her, it''s not your turn!"


    Madelyn''s holy and inexperienced appearance just now had irritated her.


    What right did Madelyn have!


    What right did Madelyn have to still grasp Benjamin''s heart firmly, to make such a proud man bow


    down to her and willingly lick her!


    She didn''t believe it! She didn''t believe Benjamin''s words.


    How many men could hold on?


    Daniel, Jackson, which one didn''t roll in bed with her after a few flirts?


    She wanted to see Madelyn''s family fall apart.


    Daniel suddenly let go of Elizabeth, his face showing a hint of embarrassment, because Elizabeth was


    right. When he heard Madelyn slowly talk about how she no longer believed in Benjamin''s love, about


    their marital problems, about how they only made love once a month...he couldn''t help feeling a little


    happy!


    He knew this idea was ridiculous and perverse.


    But he couldn''t control himself.


    His expression didn''t lie, and Elizabeth saw his fondness clearly. She wiped her face unwillingly and


    said, "Daniel, what do you even like about her?"


    Daniel fell silent.


    He couldn''t even exin what he liked about Madelyn.


    The only thing he could be sure of was that the four years Madelyn spent with him could not be erased


    from his memory...


    Perhaps it was regret that made people more poignant.

 Chapter 340 Those Memories That Flash Through the Mind

    Chapter 340 Those Memories That sh Through the Mind


    At dusk, Madelyn said goodbye to Vivian.


    Henry was courteous and opened the car door for her. He smiled and said, "It''s perfect timing to pick


    up Everest now. The little one will be thrilled to see you."


    Although there were several children in the family, Everest was the most adorable.


    Who wouldn''t love a fair-skinned and tender little girl?


    Madelyn couldn''t help but smile.


    As she was about to get into the car, someone grabbed her delicate wrist. She looked up and saw that


    it was Daniel.


    Madelyn shook him off gently and asked, "Mr. Campbell, do you need something?"


    At this time, Henry shouted, "It''s broad daylight. How dare you make a move on a married woman? Are


    you never going to find a wife, Daniel?"


    Ignoring Henry, Daniel stared at Madelyn and said with a slightly hoarse voice, "Madelyn, is there still a


    chance for us?"


    Madelyn smiled faintly and replied calmly, "Daniel, I don''t think I''ve ever given you a signal that I would


    go back on my word."


    After speaking, she got into the car.


    Henry mmed the car door shut and red fiercely at Daniel.


    The car slowly drove away.


    Daniel stood still, lost in thought.


    He had known Madelyn for over ten years, but he had a mixed feeling for her. He wanted to keep her


    as his own but on the same time felt deep regret for her. When he found out that she was not happy, he


    wondered if he had stopped in time, if he had not sent Samuel to prison, would Madelyn have believed


    that he loved her?


    They would have been together.


    And Madelyn would have be his wife, raising children at home.


    It''s too bad there are no ifs.


    Feeling unhappy, Daniel had drinks with his business associates in the evening. By nine o''clock at


    night, he was already very drunk.


    Unexpectedly, he ran into Benjamin in the bathroom, who clearly was also discussing business.


    However, they are in totally different states.


    One was disheartened and drunk, while the other was extremely sober.


    Benjamin was well-dressed, 35 years old, and a man at his prime. In addition, he did not have a


    promiscuous private life, so he looked no different from before, except that his temperament was more


    restrained.


    The two men''s gazes collided in the mirror.


    Daniel sneered, took out a cigarette, and leaned against the wall to light it.


    Taking a drag, he looked at Benjamin and said disdainfully, "Mene to ces like this, and yet dress


    up so neatly. Are you afraid that Madelyn will be unhappy?"


    Benjamin slowly turned off the golden faucet and straightened his shirt in front of the mirror.


    "Mr. Campbell, are you so bored that you can only satisfy yourself by talking?"


    Despite Benjamin''s words, Daniel still sneered.


    Looking up and exhaling smoke, he said quietly, "Benjamin, I didn''t lose to you, but to my younger


    self."


    As he spoke, his heart ached.


    Then he became trance-like, lowering his head to pinch the slender cigarette.


    After a while, he spoke again, "You''ve lost some of your memories, but my time with Madelyn is


    Benjamin wiped his hands with a tissue.


    He smiled faintly and said, "Yes, I do care! No man would not care! But what does that matter, Mr.


    Campbell? Every night now, the man holding Madelyn is me. I know what you''re thinking, aren''t you


    just referring to those rumors about us in bed? How can we judge a married couple''s rtionship with


    just a few words!"


    After speaking, he left.


    He was fresh and fragrant without a trace of women''s perfume on him. It seemed that he intended to


    go home after finishing his business talk.


    He didn''t touch a single drop of wine and drove himself home.


    While Daniel was at the club, getting drunk to the point of being disoriented.


    Benjamin went home.


    Madelyn was teaching Everest piano, but it was almost over. Next to them was a small cradle.


    Francis was sleeping inside, ying with his little fingers.


    Benjamin entered the living room, bent down and kissed his son, casually asking Madelyn, "Has he


    eaten? If not, I''ll prepare some baby food for him."


    Madelyn let Everest practice on her own.


    She came over and picked up Francis, cing him in Benjamin''s arms. "Hold him and see, he''s getting


    close to being overweight. The doctor said we need to be more restrained."


    Benjamin smiled.


    It seemed that ever since he took care of Francis, the little guy had grown especially plump and fair.


    He teased his son and whispered to her flirtatiously, "I''m also taking care of you. Madelyn, howe


    you''re not gaining weight?"


    Every night, he slept embracing her, and she remained slender, just like before.


    Madelyn gave him a sideways nce. "Should I try to gain some weight then?"


    Of course, Benjamin didn''t want that. No man would dislike his wife having a slender waist. However,


    he wouldn''t intentionally ask her to eat less either, as Madelyn may be quite strict on herself in this


    regard.


    Looking at him holding their child, Madelyn remembered what the therapist had said.


    She whispered, "Let''s have another child in a few days, okay?"


    Benjamin looked up at her, his gaze slightly deepened.


    He knew that Madelyn had met Daniel because Henry had called him and told him at the dusk.


    Besides, Daniel had said those provotive words to him. He did care that.


    He was afraid that Madelyn would be disappointed in him and yearn for past feelings.


    He whispered, "Do you like children?"


    "Yes, I do!"


    Benjamin lowered his head and kissed Francis''s little cheek, then casually asked, "Then do you like


    me?"


    He beat around the bush, but how could Madelyn not hear it?


    The atmosphere became subtle, and Everest came over after finishing piano practice, holding onto


    Benjamin''s leg, wanting a hug too.


    Benjamin lifted Everest up as well.


    He had strength, and carrying both children was effortless. He just turned his head and asked Madelyn,


    "You always say that Everest is independent, but look at how clingy she is. Where''s the


    independence?"


    Madelyn was used to indulging the children and was about to say something...


    Everest held onto his neck and said, "Mom is still not independent at her age, Dad, why do you want


    me to be independent?"


    This statement made perfect sense.


    Madelyn looked at Benjamin and smiled lightly.


    She patted Everest''s head and said, "I''ll go take a shower. You y with them for a while. Everest has


    been talking about you all evening."


    After she finished speaking, she walked straight upstairs.


    Maybe it was a bit hot, but as Madelyn went upstairs, she gathered her chestnut-colored hair and tied it


    up in a bun.


    She revealed a small section of her fair neck.


    Benjamin took a few more nces.

    Everest sighed softly and said in a tone as if she were an adult, "Francis, you should also learn to be


    independent quickly!"


    Because Dad wants to be in a romantic rtionship with mom forever.


    ...


    Benjamin put the two children to sleep and returned to the bedroom. Inside, the lights were warm and


    yellow.


    Madelyn was dressed in a bathrobe, leaning against the bedside reading a book.


    He stood at the doorway, his fingers fiddling with his tie knot, gently loosening it.


    He was concerned about Daniel after all, so he deliberately looked for topics: "Isn''t there a ss


    reunion in a few days? Have you prepared your formal wear?"


    Madelyn put down her book.


    She appreciated the way he took off his clothes, which was really pleasing to the eye.


    After a moment, she smiled lightly, "Actually, it''s the school anniversary celebration, and many people


    will being. There''s no need to be so ostentatious."


    Benjamin threw off his shirt and leaned closer to her, whispering.


    "Mrs. rk, you''ve taken good care of yourself."


    From a man''s perspective, Madelyn''s current appearance and figure were ideal.


    As her husband, he really liked it.


    Madelyn looked into his eyes, as well as his disheveled appearance at the moment, and naturally


    nestled her neck around him, kissing him, thinking this was his signal to confess his love.


    But after they kissed for a while, Benjamin did not respond at all.


    She couldn''t help but nce over...


    Benjamin lightly touched her face, his voice hoarse, "I saw Daniel at the club tonight! Madelyn, will


    Daniel also attend the school anniversary celebration?"


    She leaned against his shoulder and replied truthfully, "I don''t know."


    Benjamin followed her body curve and gently pressed her down, trapping her like that...


    He demanded from her.


    "If he goes, I''ll go too."


    Madelyny on the ck bed sheet, her bathrobe slightly open, she was stunningly beautiful. She


    stroked her husband''s sharp, slender face andughed, "Benjamin, why are you so childish!"


    Two universities co-hosting an anniversary celebration.


    What does it have to do with him?


    Benjamin pulled her into his arms and took out his phone from his pocket to make a call.


    He called Grayson.


    Benjamin asked skillful questions, "Grayson, are you out ying around?"


    Grayson begged for mercy, "I''m married now, how can I mess around outside! Ben, did you call me for


    something?"


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn.


    He smiled and asked in a soft voice, "Are you and Vivian attending the anniversary celebration in


    matching outfits?"


    Grayson was not as clever as him, and immediately began toin.


    "I was looking forward to it, but Vivian forbade it. She said second marriages shouldn''t be too shy!


    What''s wrong with being in a second marriage? I''m in my first marriage and I want to show off...


    Especially since I heard that Jackson, that bastard, is also going."


    "He even sponsored three hundred thousand! Ben, didn''t your wife cooperate with azy dog   before


    and let this scoundrele back to power? Tell Madelyn about it, this isn''t really fair!"


    ...


    Grayson said a lot.


    Benjamin only said in a low voice, "So Jackson can go, but nobody''s invited me yet..."


    Grayson''s mouth fell open.


    He knew he had misspoken and wanted to talk to Madelyn, but Vivian hung up on him.


    Benjamin threw his phone aside and looked at Madelyn dissatisfiedly, "Both her ex-husband and


    current husband are going, with two husbands at once, aren''t you nning to bring one?"


    Madelyn knew that she had to bring him.


    She rarely joked, but was willing to joke with him this time, "Am I not bringing two?"


    One of you from the past, and one of you in the present.


    Benjamin understood and kissed her for a long time under his body, making her body feel hot, before


    finally letting her go. He gazed at her beautiful eyebrows and eyes, whispering softly, "Madelyn, don''t


    intentionally anger me!"


    He cared now!


    "How to truly attract women!


    She spoke softly, "Benjamin, I have no interest in infidelity."


    The atmosphere was delicate.


    But Benjamin understood what she meant. She was so distant even towards him, how could she have


    the mood to flirt with others?


    He didn''t say anything, gently holding her in his arms.


    Theyy quietly for a while, he whispered, "We will be okay."


    Late at night, Madelyn fell asleep.


    Benjamin got up, not to take a shower but instead put on his shirt and went into the study...there, he


    found a business card with contact information for a world-renowned hypnosis expert.


    It is said that there is no memory he can''t awaken.


    But the process would be very painful.


    ...


    The next morning when Madelyn woke up, there was a white rose by her pillow.


    She lightly touched it.


    When she sat up, she realized it was already 10 o''clock, surprised since she never slept so heavily


    before.


    Downstairs, the staff informed her, "Sir took Miss Everest to kindergarten early this morning, Master


    Francis was also picked up by his wife."


    Madelyn nodded.


    After washing up, she couldn''t help but call Benjamin.


    At that moment, Benjamin was at the clinic.


    Lying on a white lounge chair, he held his phone with a gentle tone, "I saw you sleep so soundly in the


    morning, so I didn''t wake you up. What are you going to do with your free time if the kids aren''t here?"


    Madelyn replied with a sound of acknowledgement and hung up.


    Benjamin was somewhat disappointed. In fact, there were many things that Madelyn wouldn''t think of


    him.


    For example, even though she had free time today, she wouldn''t want to see him.


    Even if they could take a nap together for an hour, it would be sweet, but Madelyn simply treated him


    as family, an attractive and patient husband.


    At that moment, the hypnotherapist and his assistant walked in, both foreigners.


    The assistant dimmed the lights, speaking in a gentle voice, "Mr. rk, we are ready to start, if you feel


    any difort, please let us know immediately."


    Benjamin nodded and gently closed his eyes.


    The hypnotherapist deeply hypnotized Benjamin. He really had some skills, and soon Benjamin''s mind


    was filled with countless illusions...


    A golf course.


    Heavy rain.


    In the golden Bentley Continental GT car, he kissed Madelyn, shey on hisp...


    Hospital.


    She held the engagement ring, the ring clinked and fell to the ground...


    [How many times have you been with him?]


    [Benjamin, tell me, what does it mean to be able to handle it?]


    [I don''t want it, I don''t want it...]


    [Madelyn, don''t give up on me!]


    ...


    But those countless fragments couldn''t fit together. He began to suffer; his head hurt so much...he


    couldn''t take it anymore, the pain was unbearable.


    However, there was always something supporting him in that pain that made him not want to leave.


    He saw Madelyn''s tears.


    "She was curled up there crying alone... She wanted to tell her not to cry, but he found that he couldn''t


    speak.


    Benjamin''s forehead was covered in sweat.


    His distinct fingers gripped the armrest, his veins bulging.


    "Mr. rk! Mr. rk!"


    The assistant woke him up, and when Benjamin woke up, his mind was nk.


    Most of those chaotic images were gone.


    All that remained was Madelyn crying and a splitting headache!


    Benjaminy quietly.


    Sweat dripped down his handsome face and soaked his entire neck.


    The hypnosis master spoke awkwardly in Chinese, "Mr. rk, I''m sorry, I can''t hypnotize you anymore


    unless you don''t mind risking your life. It''s really a dangerous thing."


    Benjamin gradually calmed down.


    He felt like he was going to copse and as if he had died for a moment.


    He didn''t want to give up. He clearly touched what he wanted to know, but it was all taken away when


    he came back to reality. He couldn''t ept it: "I want to try again!"


    "No, no, no!"


    The foreign man shook his finger, "Mr. rk, I refuse to serve you!"


    Paisley came in to plead.


    The foreign man packed up his things, shaking his head and saying, "Mr. rk''s bodily memory


    doesn''t affect his life. Why do you have to remember? It''s really a strange thing!"


    Until he got into the car, Benjamin kept thinking, why did he have to remember?


    He did it for Madelyn!


    If he regained his memory, he would be theplete Benjamin. Madelyn''s illness would definitely


    improve.


    She would be truly happy!


    Instead of treating their marriage as apromise, Benjamin couldn''t stand Madelyn''s...


    <ppromises!

    Chapter 341 At School Anniversary, Mr. rk Was Jealousy


    Leaving the clinic and getting into the car, Benjamin still had a headache. He leaned against the


    backseat, gently stroking his forehead.


    Paisley took a bottle of medicated oil and kept applying it to him, expressing her concern, "Mr. rk,


    let''s find a neurologist. It seems like this foreigner is not reliable."


    Upon hearing this, Benjamin was momentarily stunned.


    He whispered, "At that moment, many things actually came to my mind, but it was like having ckouts


    after drinking too much. I woke up and forgot everything!"


    It wasn''t the hypnotist''s fault; it was his damaged nerves.


    Benjamin gently pushed Paisley''s hand away, his handsome face filled with disappointment.


    He could have regrets, but he wanted Madelyn to truly be happy.


    Just then, his phone rang.


    Looking at it, it was Madelyn calling. Madelyn''s voice was soft, "Ben, are you still outside?"


    Instantly, Benjamin''s headache disappeared.


    He straightened his posture, his voice slightly hoarse, speaking as if he were talking to a lover, "What''s


    up?"


    Madelyn smiled lightly.


    She said, "I suddenly want to eat jade dumplings. Do you want to eat them? If you do, I''ll have them


    delivered to yourpany at noon."


    Suddenly, Benjamin felt a tinge of nose in his eyes.


    After restraining himself for a long time, he finally made his voice normal, "Then I''ll wait for you at


    noon."


    ...


    Hanging up the phone, he thought that their marriage may not be perfect.


    However, it wasn''t that bad either.


    He had her in his heart, and Madelyn was also trying to get closer to him. In her heart, he was the


    person she wanted to cherish... Wasn''t that enough?


    Compared to many others, they were already doing much better.


    During lunchtime, Mr. rk managed to nap while embracing his wife.


    In that 20-square-meter rest room, he held her tightly, allowing her to be engulfed in his masculine


    scent, silently invading every part of her life.


    Madelyn didn''t fall asleep. She asked softly, "How much do you think I should donate for the school


    anniversary?"


    For any school anniversary, this was an essential part.


    With so many people watching, how much should she give? Madelyn didn''t like to show off, and she


    felt that five million was a reasonable amount, showing generosity without being too ostentatious.


    She told Benjamin.


    He closed his eyes and lightly touched her waist, "That''s great!"


    Madelyn turned around and nestled into his embrace.


    ...


    In the blink of an eye, the two universities hosted a joint school anniversary.


    It even became a hot topic.


    Therefore, it attracted a lot of attention from Gredax.


    Madelyn woke up early, changed clothes, and put on makeup. When she went downstairs, she looked


    stunning.


    A red silk shirt paired with a sequined skirt. She didn''t wear expensive jewelry, only a unique pair of


    pearl earrings on her ears.


    Plus, a wristwatch.


    Benjamin was having breakfast, reading financial reports.


    He heard footsteps, looked up, and saw her. Her deep, affectionate eyes held a hint of dissatisfaction,


    "Madelyn, your outfit today is more grandiose than the day we remarried."


    Madelyn nced at her watch and smiled.


    This watch was a custom-made luxury brand, worth over twenty million. It was a matching pair to the


    one Benjamin wore, although his was simpler in design.


    Madelyn said, "This is low-key! I''m sure someone will be wearing fur today."


    Benjamin was skeptical.


    Isn''t it supposed to be 26 degrees today?


    Wearing fur? What if they get heatstroke and need an ambnce?


    When they arrived at the music school, he realized what Madelyn meant-it turned out someone was


    indeed wearing fur.


    Elizabeth, a neer in Gredax''s high society circle.


    A ck spaghetti strap dress, covered with a green fur coat, paired with a set of jewelry, instantly


    elevated Elizabeth''s temperament by several levels.


    Elizabeth saw Benjamin and his seductive eyes added a touch of charm.


    "Mr. rk, long time no see!"


    Elizabeth had married a coal magnate with a worth of billions, but her husband, who was in his


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    fifties, spent money recklessly outside and couldn''t satisfy her at all. As she looked at the mature and


    handsome Benjamin, she thought of Madelyn''s recorded conversation.


    She didn''t believe that Benjamin, at his youthful age, could resist temptation.


    Therefore, she didn''t avoid Madelyn and boldly seduced him.


    Benjamin nced at her fur coat and faintly smiled, nodding reservedly.


    Elizabeth had been worried that he would find out about her, but it seemed that he had no idea. So she


    became even bolder and took a ss of champagne from the waiter, lightly shaking it twice. Her voice


    became more charming as she said, "Mr. rk, besides expressing my gratitude to my alma mater,


    one of the purposes of my visit to Gredax this time is to find a few young stars to cast in a few movies.


    My husband has given me full authority in this aspect."


    Benjamin had heard that the coal magnate liked making movies.


    And he would choose attractive actresses.


    He calmly nced at Madelyn and then said, "I haven''t been involved in that area, but I do know a few


    celebrities. I can introduce them to Ms. Dn sometime."


    Elizabeth curled her lips slightly.


    She looked at Madelyn and revealed a victorious smile.


    Fortunes change, back when Madelyn had stepped on her, now she had returned in glory. Even


    someone like Benjamin looked at her differently. Maybe one day he could be her intimate partner.


    Madelyn didn''t care about her provocation.


    To be honest, Benjamin would have to be blind not to see through Elizabeth''s intentions.


    Just then, Vivian arrived.


    After so many years, the once goddess Vivian had gained some weight. Her second husband,


    Grayson, elegant and charming, held her waist, and they looked very happy as a couple. Jackson sat


    on the corner sofa, feeling extremelyplicated.


    He thought they wouldn''t have a good life together.


    Grayson loved to y around, and Vivian had a bad temper!


    But Grayson had changed, and there hadn''t been any positive rumors about him since their marriage.


    Even though Vivian wasn''t as good as before, he hadn''t pursued anyone else...


    Jackson''s eyes were slightly red.


    Vivian locked eyes with him and they stared at each other for a few seconds before Vivian looked


    away.


    When she looked at Grayson again, it was a look ofplete dependence.


    Grayson had a project he wanted to discuss with Benjamin, so he patted his wife''s hand and said,


    "Chat with Madelyn for a while, I have something to talk about with Ben."


    Vivian didn''t ask further.


    Grayson''s business hadn''t been going well in recent years, but she had never asked Madelyn for help.


    On one hand, she didn''t want to ruin their friendship, and on the other hand, she was content.


    Vivian happened to have something to discuss with Madelyn.


    She took Madelyn to the restroom and whispered to her.


    "Madelyn, be careful!"


    "I saw Elizabeth talking to Ben from afar just now, and I felt something was off. This woman is trying to


    seduce him... Although I no longer have feelings for Jackson, we can''t underestimate her destructive


    power."


    ...


    Vivian was a woman, and she was also afraid that Benjamin wouldn''t be able to stay faithful and would


    seek external affairs.


    Madelyn blinked lightly.


    She turned off the golden faucet and said slowly, "In Gredax, there will always be men suitable for


    Elizabeth."


    Vivian was momentarily stunned.


    Then she looked at Madelyn and saw a newfound calmness in her expression. She thought back and


    realized that only when Charlotte was around did Madelyn show such a look.


    Vivian understood that Madelyn intended to deal with Elizabeth.


    Madelyn walked out of the restroom first.


    Vivian watched her figure and couldn''t help but think that if Madelyn and Benjamin were to go head-to-


    head, it would surely be interesting. Unfortunately, she wouldn''t be able to witness it.

 Chapter 342 His Jealousy

    Chapter 342 His Jealousy


    Chapter 342 His Jealousy


    Back in the crowded banquet hall, the atmosphere still buzzed with excitement.


    Madelyn had be the center of attention, not only because she had joined the prestigious rk


    family, but also due to her recent fame in the media.


    All eyes were on her, as everyone sought to unravel her mystery.


    But Madelyn just sat beside Benjamin, leaning on his shoulder with a sense ofplete trust and


    dependence.


    She had no desire for the spotlight and instead focused on Benjamin''s business conversations,


    asionally chiming in with convincing words.


    Elizabeth, on the other hand, stood out among the crowd of men.


    She felt a surge of satisfaction and mischievously plotted to provoke Benjamin once again.


    But her ns were ruined when she saw Benjamin taking off his coat and draping it over Madelyn''s


    legs, speaking softly to her, "Feeling cold? I always tell you to dress warmly. Look at Ms. Dn, she


    knows how to take care of herself."


    All eyes turned to Elizabeth, dressed in a fur coat and sweating from the warmth. She couldn''t help but


    feel a hint of embarrassment upon hearing those words.


    Meanwhile, Daniel arrivedte and happened to overhear their conversation.


    A faint smile yed on his lips.


    As former lovers met again, Elizabeth couldn''t help but feel envious. Despite having so many men, her


    heart only belonged to Daniel.


    Yet, his heart was only for Madelyn!


    Elizabeth managed to squeeze out a sentence, "Mr. Campbell, I have a special gift for you today!"


    But Daniel''s attention remained fixed on Madelyn.


    He noticed the matching wristwatch she wore, one identical to Benjamin''s.


    Suddenly, Daniel understood Benjamin''s confidence.


    Perhaps Madelyn wasn''t entirely content in this marriage, but she willingly stayed by his side because


    of their sweet memories.


    Daniel''s gaze turned dim.


    He took a seat and moved closer to Madelyn, ultimately settling down next to her.


    Now, Madelyn sat sandwiched between Daniel and Benjamin coincidentally.


    Soon after, the school leaders announced the recognition of outstanding alumni.


    Elizabeth, having made a generous donation of 1.4 million, clinched the top spot.


    The room erupted with apuse.


    Elizabeth gracefully stood up, nodding with a hint of self-assuredness.


    This was her way of proving her worth and making Madelyn acknowledge her achievements!


    Suddenly, a film showcasing the school''s history and notable events began to y.


    Most guests were engrossed in business chats, but about 20 minutes in, someone eximed, "Isn''t


    that Madelyn with Daniel?"


    The whole room fell silent!


    There, a young Madelyn was under the school''s French ne trees, bathed in dappled sunlight.


    She approached the young Daniel and blurted out, her face flushed, "Daniel, I like you."


    The footage paused on Daniel''s deep gaze.


    Momentster, he motioned to his bike, saying simply, "Come on."


    Nervously biting her lip, Madelyn took a seat behind him, gripping his shirt as he started pedaling.


    The next scene transported them to a deserted school library.


    Madelyn was asleep, a small bruise under her eye, while Daniel read across from her.


    He set aside his book and observed her. Then, leaning over, he gently kissed her.


    Whispers began to circte through the room.


    "Weren''t they the most famous couple in our school?"


    "Daniel liked Madelyn first!"


    "Look at Benjamin''s face! He must be furious..."


    ...


    Indeed, Daniel was stirred.


    These memories, long buried, had resurfaced, overwhelming him.


    His face betrayed his turmoil, but he fought forposure.


    He had always loved Madelyn, but he had never truly recognized it!


    Elizabeth raised her ss, her voice dripping with mischief. "Did you enjoy my gift?"


    She aimed to push Daniel into desperation and create a rift between Benjamin and Madelyn.


    And she seeded.


    These images made Benjamin extremely jealous and ufortable.


    The innocence of their youthful love stung him deeply.


    He believed that if Daniel hadn''t given up on Madelyn, they would have been together!


    And as for that damned and stupid library...


    With determination, he pulled Madelyn to her feet, a smirk forming on his lips.


    He dered, "Everest Group will contribute 100 million to tear down and rebuild the school library!"


    He, Benjamin rk, had the right to proim his love for his wife!


    The room fell silent.


    Everyone witnessed his overwhelming jealousy.


    Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.


    Benjamin led Madelyn away, gripping her hand tightly.


    As they reached the entrance, a hoarse voice called out, "Madelyn!"


    Benjamin''s grip on Madelyn tightened.


    But she slowly turned her head, calmly looking at Daniel, who gazed back at her.


    Ten years had passed, they had experienced many things, and their paths had diverged.


    Daniel''s voice was hoarse as he uttered the words that had been weighing on his heart, "Madelyn, if


    given the chance to start over, I would choose only you."


    Madelyn smiled lightly and replied nothing.


    Meanwhile, Elizabeth was left stunned.


    Wasn''t Benjamin supposed to turn against Madelyn? Why was he willing to spend a billion just to


    demolish the library? Did he truly care about Madelyn that much?


    Elizabeth trembled with anger.


    Suddenly, her coal miner husband urgently called her.


    His voice was filled with anxiety as he questioned, "Elizabeth, did you cause any trouble?"


    Elizabeth quickly inquired, "What happened?"


    He replied, "There was a surprise and intense inspection at the mine today. And they''reing back


    tomorrow!"


    Elizabeth softly reassured him, "Don''t worry, I will find someone in Gredax to help you."

    Chapter 343 The Red Wine


    Chapter 343 The Red Wine


    The school anniversary celebration was filled with bigwigs, but none stood out more than Benjamin.


    Elizabeth had hoped to impress him, but he had already left with Madelyn.


    In the parking lot, inside the car.


    Benjamin leisurely fastened his seatbelt and turned to look at Madelyn.


    She leaned against the seatback; her eyes slightly moist as she gazed out the window.


    It was clear that those videos had touched her deeply.


    How could one easily erase the memories of first love?


    Resting his hands on the steering wheel, Benjamin inquired, "Do you still miss Daniel?"


    "No!" Madelyn replied.


    "Then why do tears well up in your eyes?" he questioned.


    Madelyn struggled to find the right words to respond.


    But Benjamin gently pressed down on the elerator, driving the car away.


    Madelyn started to sense that something was amiss. They weren''t heading home, nor were they on the


    usual route to hispany.


    She couldn''t help but ask, "Where are you taking me?"


    "To the apartment where we used to live," Benjamin replied.


    Madelyn understood his intentions and said, "Benjamin, I''m no longer attached to Daniel. You can''t be


    so relentless just because of a video."


    He remained silent.


    As they reached a red light at an intersection, he reached for a cigarette, lighting it lowly as his head


    hung low.


    "Madelyn, I''m jealous!"


    Madelyn was taken aback by his sudden outburst.


    When they arrived at the apartment, Madelyn refused to get out of the car.


    Benjamin unfastened her seatbelt and leaned in, whispering near her ear, "Will you get out on your


    own, or should I carry you?"


    Reluctantly, Madelyn got out and walked ahead of him.Benjamin mmed the car door and followed


    slowly behind her with a cigarette between his fingers.


    Entering the apartment, she turned around to question him, "Benjamin, what exactly..."


    Before she could finish, he pressed her against the entryway wall.


    Their bodies pressed closely together.


    Though they were a married couple, this was far too intense for broad daylight.


    Madelyn was taken aback, looking up at him with surprise. "Ben?"


    Benjamin gently caressed her delicate face, his voice filled with a rough edge. "There are some


    questions I need to ask you."


    As he spoke, he reached for his tie and bound her wrists. Then, he tossed her onto the plush couch.


    Madelyn struggled to regain her footing and said, "Ben, is this how you ask questions?"


    Benjamin half knelt before her and stroked her cheek before giving a chuckle.


    He then walked to the liquor cab and finally selected two bottles of fine vintage red wine.


    This particr type of wine was known to intoxicate without overwhelming the senses, making it perfect


    for women at this time.


    He removed his jacket, leaving him in nothing but a crisp and appealing white shirt.


    With the bottles in hand, he approached her, half-kneeling in front of her and elegantly pouring two


    sses of wine.


    Madelyn thought he intended to get her drunk and nervously bit her lip. "Benjamin, I will tell you


    anything you want to know!"


    But he swirled the wine in his ss, his gaze fixed on her. "I want to hear the truth."


    Then he drank about half of his ss.


    His Adam''s apple moved up and down with a captivating masculinity.


    Madelyn was caught.


    She parted her red lips slightly, her voice husky and seductive. "Ben..."


    Seizing the moment, he kissed her, sharing the vorful wine with her.


    Madelyn resisted for a moment, tilting her head back, but he continued to press his body against hers.


    The red wine stained her fair skin, leaving behind delicate crimson specks.


    Benjamin irresistibly leaned in, his lips brushing against hers as he murmured, "If you take another sip,


    I''ll ask you."


    Madelyn couldn''t bear it and let out a soft cry. "Ben, please don''t do this."


    He took the wine ss and held it to her lips, coaxing her to drink obediently.


    She resisted, but he persisted, continuing to coax and feed her.


    Madelyn cried and protested, but it was in vain.


    Half an hourter, Madelyn felt as if she were immersed in the intoxicating effects of the wine.


    Benjamin nibbled on her earlobe from behind, a twinge of dissatisfaction in his voice. "Am I more


    handsome, or is Daniel?"


    Madelyn wanted to sleep, but he wouldn''t allow it.


    Clinging to his neck, her voice on the verge of tears, she responded, "You win."


    Benjamin continued, "Did you have sex?"


    His question caught him off guard, and he realized that this was what he had truly wanted to ask all


    along.


    Madelyn tried to gather her thoughts but failed.


    She kissed him back and answered, "Ben, why did you stop kissing me?"


    He held her chin, not allowing her to move.Her eyes were moist with sensual lust which she hadn''t


    shown for a long time, as she always appeared calm during sex.


    Beads of sweat dripped from Benjamin''s forehead. The heat between them made Madelyn want to cry


    out.


    He tightly gripped her slender waist and asked again.


    Madelyn blinked lightly and murmured, "We''ve kissed, but nothing more!"


    Benjamin suddenly embraced her, burying his face in her neck.


    They remained silent for a long time before he softly asked, "And now... do you still... like him?"


    Madelyn seemed to have sobered up.


    She gently caressed his warm neck and replied, "No, I don''t have any feelings for him now."


    N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Benjamin began to kiss her again.


    His touch was gentle and deliberate, slowly melting her resistance.


    With tender strength, he lifted her in his arms and carried her towards the bedroom.


    As their desire intensified, the red wine stained the bedsheet.


    It had been a long time since Benjamin had felt such a fiery intensity. He wanted their love to burn like


    this until they grew old together.


    When Madelyn woke up, she found herself in a dimly lit, eerily quiet bedroom, lying on her side on a


    pillow.


    She still remembered the fervent love that Benjamin had bestowed upon her and how she had eagerly


    tried to please him.


    The red wine had unfrozen her once cold heart, leaving her emotions tangled in a chaotic mess.


    The bedroom door creaked open, allowing a sliver of light to filter in.


    Benjamin walked in and gently pinched her cheeks, "Do you want to get up? Everest has asked for you


    several times."


    Madelyn nced at him and rose from the bed, clutching the nket around her.


    Benjamin leaned his forehead against hers affectionately and whispered, "Let''s go home first, okay?"


    He walked into the closet, selected an outfit for her, and even helped her get dressed.


    Though she was irritated, she found herself pleased.


    After all, they were a married couple.


    Madelyn brushed her chestnut-colored long hair and gently warned him, "No more alcohol, Ben.


    Promise me."


    Benjamin rested his chin on her shoulder and made a soft hmm sound.


    Today was a special situation, and normally he would never displease her.

 Chapter 344 The Stupid Woman

    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...

 Chapter 345 Did You Feel Good Last Night?

    Chapter 345 Did You Feel Good Last Night?


    Chapter 345 Did You Feel Good Last Night?


    Inside was a wless diamond ring, with around 12 carats.


    Eloise was stunned and her eyes quietly became moist.


    A few years ago, when she was still with Keh, many times she imagined in his arms that one day


    he would propose to her with a diamond ring. At that time, she was full of expectations for the future.


    However, now, their child was beginning to grow up, and the diamond ring was still in Keh''s pocket.


    Eloise didn''t know who was more unfortunate between them.


    Emerson snuggled up to Eloise and asked softly, "Why are you crying, Mom?"


    Eloise shook her head.


    Madelyn caressed Emerson''s little head and held him in her arms. Then she said in a very low voice,


    "Eloise, although I haven''t asked about the ring, Keh has always mentioned you intentionally or


    unintentionally over the years. I think this diamond ring is for you!"


    Madelyn did not intercede for Keh, because Eloise devoted four full years of youth to him.


    After all, a woman''s youth onlysted a few years.


    Madelyn took Emerson away. Eloise still had unfinished work, but she was in a very bad state. She was


    crying badly in the car. At this moment, she seemed to be back to the day she was abandoned by


    Keh, full of helplessness.


    Keh''s coat was over herp.


    Eloise knew Keh did all this on purpose just to trap her by his side.


    She thought, "This jerk! He almost betrayed himself for his so-called career. And now he''s so cheeky


    even to take out a ring and show it in front of me!"


    Eloise cried with her face covered in tears.


    The cell phone rang, and the assistant found it was Keh''s call.


    The assistant had worked for Eloise for a long time and naturally knew something about her and


    Keh. The assistant said softly, "It''s a call from Mr. Ryan!"


    "I don''t want to answer the phone."


    The assistant hesitated for a moment and then answered the phone.


    Keh didn''t know it was Eloise''s assistant who answered the phone. He said in a soft and gentle


    voice, "Eloise, have you seen the diamond ring in my pocket? Keep it for me. I will use it to propose in


    the future."


    The assistant got goosebumps hearing this.


    She swallowed hard and said, "Ms. rk is crying!"


    Keh was silent. After a while, he said, "Put her on the phone! If she refuses, I''lle over right


    away."


    Eloise heard his words.


    She took the phone, her voice nasal and hoarse. "Keh, what exactly do you mean? Back then, why


    did you think that I couldn''t wait for you? Why did you think that I was just an ignorant little girl and did


    not deserve to be your wife? Now why do you think I have to wait for you?"


    After speaking, Eloise felt so ufortable that she hung up the phone directly.


    The assistant put away the cell phone and was shocked by Eloise''s words.


    She thought, "Ms. rk and Mr. Ryan are actually talking about getting married!"


    On the other side of the phone, Keh sat in the back seat and gently stroked the phone.


    Eloise was right. Keh indeed deliberately gave her his coat and deliberately made her see the


    diamond ring. He was such a scheming person.


    Keh thought, "After many years, she has finally grown up! But it seems not, otherwise, she


    wouldn''t cry so badly."


    Kaleb heard the conversation between the two. He turned his head in front and said softly, "You can


    coax herter. After all, children are always happy with candy."


    Keh said with a faint smile, "If you still treat her like a child, she will be unhappy."


    He thought, "My little girl is already in her early 30s after all."


    ...


    Madelyn took Emerson home.


    Benjamin got off work early, picked up Everest, and went home. When he saw Emerson, he touched


    his head.


    In the kitchen, Madelyn was getting the ingredients for dinner ready.


    Benjamin went in, hugged her from behind, and asked in a low voice, "Are Eloise and Keh


    bickering again?"


    Madelyn paused.


    She looked down at the hands moving around her waist and bit her lips gently. "Benjamin, stop it.


    Children wille in and see this at any time, and it''s not good."


    Benjamin gently bit Madelyn''s tender neck and pecked her on it. "Everest has seen it many times!"


    "Even so, we have to pay attention."


    ...


    Benjamin didn''t speak anymore, just gently moved his palm, and caressed Madelyn''s waist.


    Madelyn had always been to the gym for fitness, so her waist was particrly tight.


    Benjamin suddenly wanted to say some lover''s honeyed words to her, "Did you feel goodst night?"


    Madelyn felt her face was a little hot.


    She thought there was no need to discuss the drunken sex yesterday.


    But Benjamin kept asking Madelyn if she feltfortablest night. It was probably because he hadn''t


    had sex for so long, so he wanted to make love with her again after feelingfortable. For all this, he


    still cared about her feelings and changed the subject soon.


    "Yesterday I heard from Grayson that you want to make a movie?"


    It was said that Elizabeth wanted to enter the film and television circle in Gredax, so Benjamin


    spected that Madelyn did it on purpose.


    Madelyn gave a positive answer.


    She whispered, "I want to make a movie about Gredax opera! And I want to make Ms. Harris y the


    female leading role, but Keh and she were once in love. Nevertheless, Eloise still approved of my


    idea."


    Benjamin also knew Violet.


    His mother was a fan of Violet, so he had watched her performances more or less.


    Benjamin thought, "That''s a wonderful woman, and it was normal for Keh to have a rtionship


    with her back then."


    He smiled and put his chin on Madelyn''s shoulder. Then he said in a low voice, "That''s because Ms.


    Harris is married and has a child. If she is unmarried and still in touch with Keh, Eloise won''t be so


    generous!"


    Violet''s husband was the man with her at the banquet that year.


    Unexpectedly, they got married.


    Thinking of this, Madelyn had some regrets in her heart, but she said nothing.


    Benjamin certainly noticed it sensitively.


    Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    He tightened his arms around Madelyn''s waist and said in a low and gentle voice, "Madelyn, we have a


    lifetime, and I will be with you forever."


    Madelyn smiled faintly.


    She turned around and kissed Benjamin on her own initiative...


    The two were kissing in the kitchen.


    If it were in the past, Benjamin would really close the door and hold Madelyn to the kitchen countertop


    to fuck her hard, and it would be best to make her cry. However, he could feel that she didn''t want it.


    This kiss could be considered as a reward, and even as a pity for Benjamin.


    In the dead of night, Benjamin sat in his study and considered, "On the school anniversary that day,


    after recalling the past with her first love Daniel, would Madelyn feel that our married life was too dull?


    After all, she has no passion for me anymore."


    When they sobered up, Benjamin thought the sex that happened because of two bottles of red wine


    was very pathetic.


    Madelyn got a psychological illness, and Benjamin was a hopeless case!


    Even if they were not satisfied with their marriage, Benjamin would not let Madelyn go, and he also


    believed she would not ask for divorce for the sake of their children.


    Benjamin began to worry about gains and losses in love and had no sense of security.


    He was doubly nice to Madelyn, for fear that she would feel ufortable.


    He rarely socialized and took care of the children after getting off work.


    He only had half of the shares of thew firm now, and he also hired a professional team to manage


    the Everest Group. He set aside a lot of time for Madelyn to do her own things.


    Their marriage was just seemingly perfect.


    The negative news of Madelyn''s visit to the psychiatrist was gradually forgotten by the public. When the


    people in the upper circles mentioned Benjamin and Madelyn, they only thought the two were a loving


    couple.


    However, only Benjamin knew that even if they wanted to have good sex, they had to do it when


    Madelyn drank a few sses of red wine.


    After a few times, Benjamin didn''t want Madelyn to still drink.


    He started to work overtime at home. After putting the children to sleep, he always had unfinished


    business.


    He would be in the study and wouldn''t return to the bedroom until after midnight.


    At that time, Madelyn was already asleep.


    Naturally, they didn''t need to face each other, not to mention having sex. It seemed that both of them


    werefortable in this way and that they had finally found a bnce.

 Chapter 346 Youve Lost the Happiness as a Woman

    Chapter 346 You''ve Lost the Happiness as a Woman


    Chapter 346 You''ve Lost the Happiness as a Woman


    Half a monthter, the coal miningpany of Elizabeth''s husband was investigatedpletely.


    It was widely disclosed that five people were killed four years ago, and the deep-pocketed coal boss


    was directly detained and could be jailed for at least 20 years.


    Elizabeth was utterly devastated.


    She wanted to see Keh but was stopped by Kaleb.


    Kaleb earnestly said. "Ms. Dn, Mr. Ryan originally intended to have a long-term cooperation with


    you, but we didn''t expect your husband tomit a crime, so the cooperation could only be canceled!"


    Even if Elizabeth was thick-witted, she noticed something unusual.


    But with her status, she didn''t dare to offend Keh at all, and she could only beg him to spare her.


    Kaleb smiled calmly.


    "Ms. Dn, just think about who you have offended."


    Elizabeth was stunned.


    It took a long time before she murmured, "It''s Madelyn!"


    Kaleb just said, "Mr. Ryan''s younger sister passed away early, so he devotes all his affection to Ms.


    Green. How he cares about her! Ms. Dn, just think about it carefully. You didn''t even inquire clearly


    before doing things. It''s foolish of you to make such a mistake!"


    Kaleb left after speaking.


    Elizabeth was sitting alone in the seat, shoulders dropping thoroughly!


    She picked up a cup of coffee, and although she tried her best to hold the cup steady, her hands kept


    trembling... She didn''t want to believe that she had worked hard for many years and still lost to


    Madelyn.


    She thought, "Madelyn didn''t even do anything to me, and I lost to her badly just like a drowned rat! No!


    No way! Christian cannot fall from power. Even if I humbly plead with her, I must keep him."


    When Elizabeth walked out of the cafe, it was raining outside. The hot and dry weather in early autumn


    became much cooler by the drizzle.


    Outside the vi, the drizzle was misty.


    Madelyn was sitting in the pavilion in the backyard, fiddling with a vase.


    The flowers in the vase were all nted by her.


    A servant came over and whispered, "Mrs. rk, Ms. Dn wants to meet you!"


    Madelyn blinked gently.


    She had already seen today''s news and guessed that Elizabeth woulde to beg her, but she didn''t


    expect it to be so fast.


    She smiled faintly and said, "Just tell her I''m out!"


    The servant nodded and left.


    At the gate of the vi, Elizabeth walked back and forth anxiously with an umbre.


    As ast resort, She could only beg Madelyn.


    Elizabeth thought no matter how ruthless Madelyn was, they were still old ssmates, and it was


    reasonable to help her for old time''s sake as long as she was willing to beg Madelyn.


    From a distance, the servant came over with an umbre.


    "Ms. Dn, I''m sorry. Mrs. rk is out! You cane next time!"


    Elizabeth certainly knew that it was Madelyn''s excuse.


    She was sure Madelyn was at home.


    Elizabeth was not reconciled and shouted at the gate regardless of the circumstances, "Madelyn! I


    know you are at home. Why do you refuse to see me? Yes, I did something bad to you, leaking your


    privacy. But that didn''t really affect you, did it? Are you going to hound me to death?"


    The servant said with a gloomy face, "Ms. Dn, don''t embarrass me!"


    She thought, "Mrs. rk has a good temper and won''t care about it. But if Mr. rk goes home, he will


    definitely me me."


    Elizabeth was so angry that she threw away her umbre, grabbed the ck carved gate, shook it


    desperately, and cursed, "Madelyn,e out! Don''t y dumb! Do you think you''re better than me?


    Have you forgotten how you pursued Daniel in the first ce?


    "You said, you will always love Daniel in this life!


    "Well, you are just like me! All you love is power!


    "You don''t love Benjamin. I can''t find the slightest love in your eyes! Madelyn, this is your retribution.


    You always have a condescending attitude to me, and now your retribution ising."


    ...


    Elizabeth knew that Madelyn would not help her, so she simply turned nasty.


    Madelyn heard all her words.


    She calmly ordered, "Let the security guard drive her away!"


    When the security guard grabbed Elizabeth and throw out her, Elizabeth was as unscrupulous as a


    shrew in the rain, and those unpleasant words kepting out of her mouth.


    "Just keep your dull life!


    "Madelyn, you have lost the happiness as a woman."


    "I think you may feel morefortable and excited when you have sex with Daniel than with Benjamin,


    right?"


    ...


    A golden Bentley slowly came close.


    The car window was rolled down in half.


    Benjamin heard Elizabeth''s words clearly.


    There was no expression on his handsome face.


    Elizabeth turned around and saw him.


    She rushed up and patted the car door. The rain kept pouring into her mouth. She said desperately,


    "Mr. rk, I beg you to help me! Please let Madelyn spare Christian! I am willing to do anything for


    you."


    She ttered herself that she was good-looking and she wanted a man to love her.


    Elizabeth thought that Benjamin couldn''t get sexual satisfaction from his wife, but she believed she


    could satisfy him.


    The golden Bentley Continental GT stopped.


    The windshield wipers in front of the windshield kept swaying from side to side.


    Benjamin was sitting in the car in a precious suit, looking indifferent but elegant when he lowered his


    head to light up a cigarette.


    Elizabeth knew she was a bitch.


    Her beloved man was Daniel, and she had been with many men as a lover. But when a clean man who


    had never had an affair with other women appeared, she still wanted him.


    She was jealous of Madelyn.


    Benjamin slowly blew a smoke ring and looked sideways at Elizabeth. And only that look was enough


    to make her besotted with him.


    Elizabeth murmured, "Help me!"


    Benjamin said coldly, "I asked someone to deal with your husband! So he fell from power. Ms. Dn, I


    am not Daniel. I never collect trash!"


    He felt women like Elizabeth were extremely dirty.


    Benjamin put out the cigarette.


    Then he said to the security guard, "What are you doing here? Pull her away and get out of my way."


    Elizabeth was stunned.


    Benjamin''s car started slowly. When he passed her, he suddenly stopped the car again.


    In the car, he was personable and his side face was very charming, but he said coldly and ruthlessly, "I


    care about Madelyn very much! If you do something bad to make her unhappy again, then I don''t mind


    destroying what you care about most."


    What Elizabeth cared most about was Daniel.


    She hated but also loved him!


    Benjamin thought if Daniel became down and out, this would be what Elizabeth couldn''t stand the


    most.


    The car window was rolled up.


    Benjamin, the elegant and aloof man, drove slowly into the vi.


    When Elizabeth thought he mightfort Madelyn, she yelled uncontrobly.


    She thought, "I''m the pitiful one! Why does the whole world go tofort Madelyn?"


    ...


    The golden Bentley stopped.


    Sitting in the car, Benjamin smoked a cigarette quietly.


    Elizabeth''s words just now were lingering in his ears.


    "Just keep your dull life!"


    "Madelyn, you have lost the happiness as a woman."


    "I think you may feel morefortable and excited when you have sex with Daniel than with Benjamin,


    right?"


    Benjamin shouldn''t have taken these words seriously, but he still took them seriously.


    As a man, especially a man like him who was born superior, he cared very much about things that


    couldn''t make his wife happy!


    He knew that Daniel still loved Madelyn.


    After all, the two had 4 years of memories.


    Whether the memories were good or bad, they must have a sweet time...


    A cigarette burned out. Benjamin got out of the car and walked straight towards the backyard.


    Madelyn was still fiddling with the bottle of flowers.


    Seeing Benjamining in, she asked softly, "She''s gone?"


    Benjamin unbuttoned his suit, took off it, and gently draped it over Madelyn''s slender shoulders. "It''s


    cold. Why are you sitting outside?"


    Madelyn smiled, "It''sfortable outside."


    Benjamin leaned over and kissed her.


    Madelyn didn''t refuse. Probably to make Benjamin happy, she put her arms around his shoulders...


    Then he sat on the chair and she sat on hisp.


    The suit on her shoulders fell to the ground, and he put his hands into her skirt.


    Madelyn bit Benjamin''s shoulder lightly and said in a low voice, "Go back to the bedroom."


    However, Benjamin withdrew his hands, patted her waist gently, and deliberately teased her. "What are


    you thinking, Mrs. rk? Where are Everest and Francis?"


    Madelyn guessed his mind.


    She leaned lightly on his shoulder and gently stroked his handsome face. "Mom and Dad took them


    back and said it was to leave time for us to cultivate feelings."


    Benjamin put his arms around Madelyn''s waist.


    Both of them were a little silent.


    In fact, they had a good rtionship and got along very well. Benjamin was considerate and nice to


    Madelyn, but there was just less passion between them and their life was more prosaic than an old


    married couple''s.


    There was nothing wrong with it anyway!


    ...


    Half a monthter, Elizabeth''s husband was basically sentenced to 20 years in prison with hard


    evidence.


    The sentence led to breaking up his family.


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    As his current wife, Elizabeth got 71 million dors in cash. This was a bit far from her wealthy life.


    Madelyn didn''t hit Elizabeth when she was down.


    Unexpectedly, Madelyn would meet Elizabeth again at the party held by the Jones family.


    Madelyn was going to make a movie, and she was surrounded by a group of handsome young men. All


    of them wanted to take part in a y with Violet.


    Vivian was usually not allowed to look at any man for a long time by Grayson.


    Now, she was going to have fun tonight. Looking at the handsome young men one by one, she touched


    her face and regretted that she wasn''t well-preserved.


    Madelyn whispered to Vivian to let her calm down.


    If something really happened to Vivian, Grayson would kill Madelyn.


    Vivian was just about to exin but suddenly saw a familiar person from the corner of her eye. She


    whispered to Madelyn, "Elizabeth is here. She is really something. Her husband is still in prison, while


    she quickly bes a lover of a big shot in the entertainment industry."


    Madelyn raised her eyes subconsciously and then saw Elizabeth in a silver dressing over with her


    hand around a potbellied man''s arm.


    Elizabeth had lost a lot of weight, looking a little quiet and magnificent, very attractive to men.


    At this moment, she was staring at Madelyn viciously.


    However, Madelyn was not afraid of her at all.


    Madelyn whispered to Vivian, "The producer next to her has been very bad at making movies and


    losing lots of money in the past few years! He is just trying to get some money from Elizabeth!"


    Vivian admired Madelyn very much.


    Madelyn smiled lightly, "I had coffee with Ms. Harris two days ago, and she told me."


    While Madelyn was speaking, Elizabeth sat far away.


    Madelyn ignored Elizabeth and continued to socialize with others. When it was 10 o''clock, Madelyn


    spoke to Vivian. "I''ll go back first. Have a good time!"


    Vivian was surprised. "Is Benjamin so strict with you?"


    Madelyn smiled faintly.


    In fact, it was not that Benjamin asked her to go back early, but since the school anniversary, she felt


    that he had no sense of security. She could understand it.


    Their feelings had gone away a little. Besides, after watching Daniel''s video, Benjamin manipted


    Madelyn a lot. She thought there must be one normal person between the two of them.


    Therefore, even if Benjamin manipted her a lot, she still had a very tolerant attitude.


    Usually, when he wanted to make love, she never refused.


    Madelyn said goodbye to Vivian and left first.


    In the Jones'' manor, the hallway was quite long, and the servant brought Madelyn her coat.


    Behind her, Elizabeth''s voice came.


    "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn turned her head and saw Elizabeth''s deathly pale face. She frowned slightly. "Ms. Dn, can I


    help you?"


    Elizabeth held a slender cigarette for women between her fingers.


    She lowered her head and slowly lit up it. Then she raised her eyes and carefully looked at Madelyn for


    a long time before she said softly, "Madelyn, you won! Christian was sentenced, and I can only rely on


    myself from now on."


    Madelyn smiled very faintly.


    Elizabeth drew deeply on her cigarette and said, "I know you are very happy! You did all this for Vivian,


    right? As her best friend, when she was heartbroken back then, you must be very upset too! Now you


    got what you wanted."


    Elizabeth squinted suddenly andughed.


    "One thing is strange to me. You obviously don''t love Benjamin anymore, but why are you still with


    him? You are not short of money, are you? In any case, the Ryan family can make you have a good


    life! With such a powerful uncle, what are you afraid of?"


    ...


    Madelyn said calmly, "Elizabeth, do you think everyone is self-centered just like you? Benjamin is not


    only my husband, but the father of my two children."


    Elizabethughed, bursting into tears withughter.


    She thought, "The father of two children... Sure enough! This is Madelyn''s innermost thought. She is


    not happy and her life is not good! She is still with Benjamin just for the sake of the children, and it''s


    just apromise. In fact, she is no better off than me."


    Madelyn ignored Elizabeth, turned around, and was about to leave.


    As soon as she turned around, she saw Benjamin standing at the door.


    He looked at her quietly.


    His eyes were deep, like a thick fog that couldn''t dissipate on a cloudy day...

 Chapter 347 Madelyn, Lets Have Another Baby!

    Chapter 347 Madelyn, Let''s Have Another Baby!


    Chapter 347 Madelyn, Let''s Have Another Baby!


    The dim lights fell on Benjamin and Madelyn, casting long shadows.


    They looked at each other, but no one spoke.


    For a long time, Madelyn''s words were lingering in Benjamin''s mind.


    "He is also the father of my two children."


    In fact, Benjamin always knew that Madelyn was willing to make up with him because she wanted to


    Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    give Everest and Francis aplete family. Otherwise, she would never forgive him for what he had


    done.


    But when he heard her say something like she didn''t love him, he still minded it.


    Finally, Benjamin said in a low voice, "It''s very cold outside. Why don''t you put on a coat?"


    He slowly stepped forward, thoughtfully helped Madelyn drape the coat over her shoulders, and then


    buttoned the coat.


    Madelyn stared at him.


    She wanted to say something but felt unnecessary.


    Elizabeth looked at them. At this moment, her jealousy of Madelyn reached its peak. Elizabeth thought,


    "Why? Why is Benjamin still passionately devoted to her? He clearly knows that she doesn''t love him!"


    When Benjamin holding Madelyn left, Elizabeth couldn''t help but speak behind them.


    "Mr. rk, she is not worthy of you!"


    Benjamin turned his head slowly.


    His face looked even colder in the light, and his voice was cold and indifferent. "Ms. Dn, you should


    be d that Madelyn has a kind personality, otherwise do you think you can still attend such a party?"


    As long as Madelyn wanted, let alone 71 million dors, Elizabeth would get nothing.


    Elizabeth didn''t believe it.


    She thought she lost to Madelyn just because of Keh. Now that she and Madelyn were making


    movies at the same time, she was confident that she could win this time.


    Her lips curved in a smile as she watched the two leaving.


    She thought she had found a breakthrough.


    At this moment, Vivian came over, leaning on the wall, and sneered, "Hey, what bad idea are you


    thinking again?"


    Elizabeth turned around suddenly.


    She and Vivian were mortal enemies. Back then, she hooked up with Jackson, but Jackson was more


    concerned about Vivian, so he refused to divorce. Then she came up with the idea of gaining one


    sperm. But she didn''t expect that she would lose both Jackson and wealth in the end.


    And she gave that child to someone.


    Elizabeth raised her head slightly and snorted, "Just wait and see!"


    Vivian didn''t care about her.


    She knew that with Madelyn''s power in the business world for several years, Elizabeth was far from an


    opponent!


    It just depended on if Madelyn wanted to deal with Elizabeth.


    ...


    Downstairs, Benjamin opened the car door for Madelyn.


    She sat in, but he did not close the door, staring at her deeply.


    Madelyn fastened the seat belt and said slowly, "Benjamin, if you want to quarrel, go home first!"


    Benjamin''s eyes were deep.


    In a moment, the car door mmed shut.


    After getting in the car, Benjamin drove a little fast. Madelyn was actually a little ufortable.


    But she endured the difort.


    Half an hourter, Benjamin drove to the apartment.


    Since it was a quarrel, neither of them wanted to scare the children, especially Everest. She was very


    sensitive.


    The night was slightly cool.


    Madelyn and Benjamin entered the apartment. He still remembered thest time they had sex


    intimately here, but at this time he was depressed and angry.


    He pressed Madelyn against the door.


    Trying to suppress his anger, he said, "Madelyn, am I really not worthy of your love at all? Am I really


    not worth your hard work again?"


    Madelyn was a little helpless.


    She said softly, "Let''s go in and talk after changing shoes."


    Benjamin refused.


    He still pressed Madelyn and stared at her with deep eyes.


    Madelyn slowly straightened up.


    She looked at Benjamin and smiled faintly, "Benjamin,e on! Didn''t you know that before? Or do


    you think I haven''t tried? Yes, I am locked into this marriage for the sake of my children. But what else


    can I do? To see Francis has no Dad or Mom at a young age, or to make Everest unhappy?


    "Benjamin, what you want, I actually tried my best to give you! You asked me to see a psychiatrist, and


    I did so! You even wanted to have a new child, and I agreed!


    "Isn''t that enough? Benjamin, are you greedy or am I greedy? Are you dissatisfied or am I


    dissatisfied?"


    ...


    Madelyn simply said all the words that had been suppressed for a long time.


    "After so much, my psychological expectation has really decreased a lot! But you are different. You still


    want the perfect love, but Benjamin, I have been scarred and battered after so many years. You can''t


    ask me to be as simple as a young girl after going through so much!"


    Benjamin''s eyes were deeper.


    He slowly let go of Madelyn and asked in a very hoarse voice, "Madelyn, is that from the bottom of your


    heart? You will never be able to love me like you used to, will you?"


    Madelyn showed a smile, looking more ill-favored than when she was crying.


    She didn''t want to quarrel with Benjamin.


    She thought, "It was him who said he was willing to stay with me and willing to stay with me for the rest


    of his life. But, only a few days have passed after he gave me the promise."


    Madelyn was very calm. She said calmly, "Benjamin, if you really want to get love, just go find a young


    girl or find someone willing to love you!"


    Madelyn suddenly understood something.


    She thought, "It turns out that only I''m satisfied with such a dull marriage."


    Therefore, Madelyn was willing to let go of Benjamin.


    Benjamin''s eyes became stern. He rarely lost his temper and rarely had an uncontrolled state.


    A vase hit the ground and sttered with debris.


    Madelyn blinked gently.


    Theke blue vase was carefully selected by her just on the day after they had sex. She could still


    remember how happy she was to choose these things to decorate their home.


    However, Benjamin broke the vase easily now...


    Madelyn pushed him away, turned around, and left.


    But Benjamin hugged her from behind. He dragged her into the living room with one hand and carried


    her into the bedroom. Then he took off their coats and kissed her burying his head in her neck.


    Madelyn thought he was going to get out of control...


    But for a long time, he just put his head on her neck. He murmured, "Madelyn, don''t say such words in


    the future!"


    Benjamin thought, "I will never have an affair with a young girl. I just want her."


    Madelyn looked away. Her face brushed against the white pillow and her eyes were red.


    Benjamin began to kiss her.


    He kissed her eyebrows, the faint blue veins at the end of her eyebrows, and her body.


    During the sex, she felt his passion.


    Benjamin got close to Madelyn''s ear and murmured softly, "Madelyn, let''s have another baby!"


    He thought, "If she is pregnant, maybe we won''t have time to think about these messy things, and


    maybe everything will be back on track!"


    Madelyn was not as optimistic as him.


    She used to think that maybe they would love each other as usual if they had another child.


    But now, a child clearly couldn''t solve the problems between them.


    Madelyn began to take contraceptive pills regrly, which required her to take one before sex every


    time.


    It was less harmful to women''s bodies, and she could have children anytime if she wanted in the future.


    She didn''t tell Benjamin about this, for fear that he would think too much.


    Madelyn sometimes thought it was actually Benjamin who was sick between them.


    The days passed quietly.


    They both tacitly never mentioned the dispute that day, and they were still a loving couple that


    everyone envied. Benjamin was considerate both at home and outside.


    He always pestered Madelyn to have sex.


    At least five days a week, her body was upied by him.


    Benjamin wanted Madelyn to conceive a child, and he became more attentive to her physiological


    period and ovtory period than her. After ejacting, he would keep his penis inside her private parts


    until he felt that she could conceive.


    Two monthster, Madelyn''s belly was still t.


    ...


    In November.


    On Madelyn''s birthday, the vi was lively for a whole day.


    At night, Madelyn walked back to the bedroom after a shower.


    The sofa at the end of the bed was filled with gifts from friends and family.


    Madelyn picked up a small pink envelope, which was a letter written to her by Everest and Francis, and


    there was also a very childlike painting. Madelyn looked at the gifts quietly, feeling very warm when she


    was thinking of her children.


    The bedroom door opened, and Benjamin walked in slowly.


    At this time, Madelyn opened a box, and the gift inside was very valuable.


    It was an emerald green ne.


    Madelyn knew its value, guessing that this gift cost at least 7 million dors and it was very rare.


    The person who sent it was...


    Madelyn was quietly in a daze.


    By the door, Benjamin leaned there and looked at her quietly.


    When Madelyn found him, he lowered his head and lit up a cigarette. He asked indifferently, "Who gave


    such an expensive gift?"


    Madelyn knew what he was driving at.


    She closed the box and smiled faintly, "There''s no name!"


    Benjamin''s eyes deepened.


    He walked over to y with the exquisite box and said a little casually, "Madelyn, I don''t believe you


    don''t know who gave it!"


    He thought, "Expect Daniel, who else would give such a valuable thing?"


    Madelyn was no longer in the mood to open gifts.


    She got up, walked to the dressing table, slowlybed her long hair. Then she spoke after organizing


    hernguage. "Ben, today is my birthday. Can we not quarrel? I wasn''t going to ept it!"


    Benjamin came behind her.


    He hugged her from behind, tititing her.


    Madelyn''s breathing was slightly quicker.


    Benjamin whispered in her ear, "On your birthday, can you make love with me without taking pills?"


    Madelyn closed her eyes gently.


    She thought, "He knows!"


    Benjamin took out a small medicine bottle from the drawer, which had contraceptives in it.


    He gently bit behind Madelyn''s ear and said in a very gentle voice, "Madelyn, I want a child! With this


    child, we will still be together no matter what, okay?"


    Madelyn couldn''t bear it anymore and pushed the little bottle away.


    The cap came off the bottle and the pills inside were spilled all over the ground.


    Benjamin looked at Madelyn quietly...


    After a long time, he said with a wry smile, "Madelyn, you always wanted my love in the past! Now I


    love you, but I don''t know how to treat and please you. You can''t abandon me when I have fallen in


    love with you! Who you love is the one who has been with you for five years. But it''s not me!"


    ...


    After speaking, Benjamin walked out quietly.


    When he walked to the door, Madelyn suddenly said, "Benjamin! I don''t know how much affection I still


    have for you, but I won''t love others or be devoted to them!"


    She thought, "From beginning to end, he could not see my connivance to him. Loyalty and uniqueness.


    Isn''t that my love for him?"


    Madelyn felt emotionally exhausted.

 Chapter 348 They Give Each Other the Silent Treatment!

    Chapter 348 They Give Each Other the Silent Treatment!


    Chapter 348 They Give Each Other the Silent Treatment!


    Madelyn couldn''t help crying.


    She cried very depressed.


    In this rtionship, she was really too passive.


    Madelyn quarreled with Benjamin many times, and shepromised most of the time eventually


    because of her feelings for him and a sense of guilt. After all, he lost his memory because of her, and


    he had risked his neck for her once.


    So no matter how irritating Charlotte was to herter, she could only choose to forgive.


    Otherwise, what else could she do?


    Madelyn bent down to pick up the pills one by one and put them in the small bottle.


    There were many small white pills.


    Madelyn was even thinking, "If I swallow them all, would it be possible to end all of this? Would it be


    possible to never worry about whether I love Benjamin or not, or to never face his usations?"


    ...


    Madelyn and Benjamin gave each other the silent treatment, but it didn''t affect the children.


    Madelyn got up early in the morning.


    Opposite, Benjamin came out of the guest room, still wearingst night''s clothes. He saw Madelyn''s


    dark circles and said lightly, "I will take Everest to kindergarten in a while."


    His simple words made Madelyn know that he was going to be stuck with her.


    Madelyn nodded.


    She went to make breakfast for the children as usual.


    During breakfast, Everest said she wanted Madelyn and Benjamin to send her together.


    Madelyn raised her eyes and just looked into Benjamin''s gaze.


    After a shower, he changed into a formal suit, his eyes slightly deep at this time.


    The atmosphere was a bit strange. Madelyn wanted to coax Everest, but Benjamin said suddenly, "It''s


    a rare time. Let''s go together! I''ll send you backter."


    Madelyn was a little surprised, but she still nodded.


    Everest looked at them and gently pulled Madelyn''s hand. "Do you like the card from Francis and me?"


    Madelyn kissed Everest''s fair and tender face. "I like it!"


    Then she pressed her face to Everest''s face and didn''t want to move.


    Benjamin kept staring at Madelyn.


    After breakfast, Madelyn went upstairs to change clothes. She picked a silk shirt and fishtail skirt before


    taking off her clothes. At that moment, the bedroom door opened.


    Benjamin was a little surprised and then slowly closed the door.


    Madelyn slowly put on her clothes.


    When she bent over, the spine on her fair back protruded slightly, particrly attractive.


    Benjamin leaned against the door and said softly, "Paisley said you have an appointment with the


    doctor!"


    Madelyn buttoned the shirt, took her long hair out of the cor, andbed her hair a few times. After


    all this, she looked up at Benjamin. "I have something to do in a while, so I won''t go!"


    She thought, "From now on, I won''t go there anymore."


    After speaking, she walked out of the bedroom and passed Benjamin.


    Benjamin grabbed her hand. "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn gently broke away from him and said calmly, "Benjamin, enough is enough! There is no need


    for any of us to force ourselves. Let''s live just like now!"


    She paused and then continued, "And I respect your choice!"


    She was walking in the hallway, and Benjamin''s voice came from behind. "I won''t let you go!"


    "Suit yourself!"


    After speaking, Madelyn leaned against the wall for a few seconds.


    She thought, "Elizabeth only talked about my past that day, and Benjamin couldn''t stand it. He said I


    don''t love him, but he just likes another me, who totally loves him and only belongs to him!"


    She smiled mockingly.


    When Madelyn arrived at the parking lot, she got in the car.


    Instead of sitting in the passenger seat, she sat next to Everest. Along the way, she talked to Everest


    tenderly and only asionally chatted with Benjamin about Everest.


    The two adults deliberately concealed the silent treatment between them, and Everest certainly couldn''t


    find out for the time being.


    Everest got out of the car to go to school.


    Benjamin stood side by side with Madelyn, watching Everest enter the school. After a while, Benjamin


    walked back to the car, opened the door of the driver''s seat, and motioned to Madelyn to get in the car.


    Madelyn sat in the car and said softly, "Stop at the intersection in front, and I will take a taxi."


    Benjamin looked at the road ahead and lit up a cigarette.


    "Where to go? I''ll drive you there!"


    Madelyn told Benjamin the location. He didn''t say anything and drove there.


    Madelyn thanked him when she got out of the car.


    Benjamin gently grabbed her hand and sneered, "Madelyn, we are a married couple. Why do you have


    to thank me when I give you a ride? Why do you alienate me so much?"


    Madelyn sat back in her seat, suppressing her anger.


    "Benjamin, if you want to maintain this marriage, then don''t speak in a voice dripping with sarcasm! Of


    course, if you don''t want to, you can vent all your dissatisfaction."


    There was silence in the car.


    After a long time, Benjamin stepped on the gas lightly.


    He thought, "Maybe she is right. We will live happily if we are not bound to each other. We will raise


    children together. When we meet young and good-looking people..."


    Benjamin didn''t want to continue to think, gently hitting the steering wheel.


    Then the car horn made a harsh sound.


    Benjamin drove Madelyn to the Media Building. After she got out of the car, he drove away.


    Anyway, he was more or less angry with her.


    Madelyn stood quietly for a long time before walking in!


    ...


    In the afternoon, Madelyn picked up Everest.


    While cooking dinner, a servant came over and said, "Mrs. rk, Mr. rk called and said he won''t be


    back for dinner."


    Madelyn was kneading dough.


    Hearing this, she paused and asked, "Did he say what time he''d be back?"


    The servant shook her head.


    Madelyn whispered to her to leave, was in a daze for a few seconds, and continued kneading the


    dough. Everest wanted to eat a cake, so Madelyn promised to bake her a beautiful small cake.


    Madelyn thought, "My babies are still too young!"


    She took care of Everest and Francis alone. After dinner, she taught Everest to y the piano. Francis


    could already walk, holding the piano and shaking his head...


    Everest yed the piano just for a while and then went to hold Francis.


    By the time Everest and Francis went to bed, it was already 10 p.m., and Benjamin did note back.


    Madelyn took a shower andy quietly on the bed.


    She thought, "Since we remarried, he''s rarely socialized sote. Is this a carryover from the quarrelst


    time?"


    ...


    At this time, Benjamin was in the clubhouse.


    He was attending a dispensable business dinner party.


    He was originally going to leave at 9 o''clock, but the mobile phones of the people around him kept


    ringing.


    [I will be back soon!]


    [You think too much again! It''s just socializing, and there''s no hostess here!]


    [OK! OK! I''ll coax you when Ie back!]


    ...

    The men dealt with their wives, and when they put down their phones, they looked helpless. One said,


    "So sorry. My wife is strict with me!"


    As he said, he hugged the young girl next to him.


    At that moment, someone ttered Benjamin.


    "Mr. rk is different from us! It''s sote, but Mrs. rk hasn''t called him yet. That''s because she


    always has a high degree of trust in him!"


    The others agreed with the man,ughing.


    Amidst happyughter and cheerful voices, Benjamin was very ufortable.


    He knew the reason why Madelyn didn''t call him was not because she trusted him, but because she


    didn''t care about him!


    Benjamin usually drank in moderation, but he couldn''t help but drink a few more today. When he felt


    ufortable, he went to the washroom to wash his face. Then he went back to the private box when


    he sobered up a little.


    There was a new person in the private box.


    It was a very young girl, who was seemingly a neer to a certain filmpany. She was 21 years


    old, as tender as a flower. However, obviously, she had stic surgery before.


    She looked a lot like Madelyn.


    When Benjamin opened the door, he was slightly stunned.


    The young girl behaved in a measured way and didn''t make a nuisance of herself. She just sat next to


    Benjamin and listened to these men socializing and talking about business.


    The people here were all very clear-sighted and tactful.


    They could tell that the target of this neer named Willow Colton was Benjamin.


    Then they started to tease Benjamin and Willow.


    Benjamin ignored them.


    He lowered his head and lit up a cigarette, slowly smoking and holding the cigarette between his


    slender fingers, very manly.


    When the dinner party was over, he took his coat and left.


    As soon as Benjamin got in the car, the girl walked to the car and asked in a soft voice, "Mr. rk, can


    you give me a ride?"


    Benjamin still had half a cigarette between his fingers.


    He slowly finished smoking the cigarette before he said, "Don''t get entangled with a married man."


    After speaking, he asked the driver to drive.


    While driving, the driver looked in the rearview mirror and couldn''t help but say, "She''s pretty and still


    looks a bit like Mrs. rk when looking at her carefully! But it''s obvious that she had stic surgery.


    Well, did she have stic surgery ording to Mrs. rk''s appearance on purpose?"


    Benjamin was a little absent-minded.


    He thought of Madelyn in his heart.


    He wondered, "I''ming home sote. Will she ask me where I went or will she care about it?"

    Chapter 349 Daniel Died in a Car ident!


    When Benjamin arrived home, it was close to midnight.


    A light was left in the hall, and it was quiet everywhere.


    Benjamin went upstairs to see the children first, then loosened his tie, and went to the master bedroom.


    Madelyn was already asleep, and there was only dim moonlight in the room.


    Standing at the end of the bed, Benjamin watched for a moment, then walked into the bathroom.


    His coat and shirt smelled of tobo and alcohol, and he took them off in theundry basket.


    After taking a shower, hey behind Madelyn.


    Madelyn''s breathing was very even, but Benjamin knew she was awake. She just didn''t want to talk to


    him.


    Benjamin kissed the back of her neck and whispered, "Don''t you ask me anything?"


    Madelyn''s body froze slightly and she didn''t speak.


    Benjamin thought of those people''s teasing tonight and her words that she asked him to find young


    girls. Dissatisfied, he held her slender waist and pressed his body tighter.


    They had never had such a silent sex, and no one spoke from start to finish.


    It was just like giving a silent vent.


    Even so, Benjamin still remembered to use a condom. Madelyn even didn''t take a shower after the sex


    and fell asleep while still lying on her side...


    Benjamin lifted the covers and got up.


    While taking a shower, he wondered how they got to this point.


    Benjamin didn''t see Madelyn''s expressions, so his mood was even worse because of this sex.


    Early in the morning.


    Madelyn stayed at home to do housework.


    The clothes that Benjamin took offst night were packed in aundry bag, ready to be sent to the


    the shirt.


    That perfume was the one used by young girls.


    Madelyn was stunned.


    She thought, "He came back sotest night. Did he retaliate against me or dere war on me by


    allowing a woman to get close to him?"


    Madelyn checked again and found no lipstick mark on the shirt.


    However, when she smoothed the coat, a business card with fragrance fell out of the pocket.


    [Great Times Media, Willow Colton.]


    Half an hourter, Willow''s information was delivered to Madelyn.


    Willow, 21 years old, a new actress, was young and beautiful, with good acting skills.


    Madelyn pinched the photo.


    The Willow in the photo looked very like Madelyn. If someone looked at it carefully, he would find that


    Willow had stic surgery. Clearly, Willow''s goal was Benjamin.


    And Benjamin even took the scent of perfume home.


    Madelyn thought, "When Willow stuffed her business card into his pocket, he possibly might know, but


    he just wanted to sound out my attitude."


    Madelyn slowly burned the information.


    Gloria lowered her voice and said, "Great Times Media is a newpany, and the boss is...Elizabeth."


    Madelyn looked at the firelight.


    She gently rested her head with her slender fingers.


    Gloria hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Ms. Green, shall we teach her a lesson secretly? She''s


    just a new actress, and it''s no big deal!"


    Madelyn asked slowly, "Shall we tie up and beat her up, or find someone to make a sex video with


    her?"


    Gloria pped her hands in agreement.


    Madelyn gave her a stare.


    After a moment, Madelyn said softly, "Not only do I not teach her a lesson, I also want to make her


    famous!"


    She thought, "Just a female star! What she wants is just to be popr! Then I will help Elizabeth to


    make this girl go viral..."


    Gloria was slightly stunned.


    Madelyn smiled slightly, "Pull my strings to give her a few good resources and make her go viral in the


    shortest possible time... By the way, check her stic surgery records and her past!"


    Gloria looked at the calm face of Madelyn and swallowed hard.


    Then Gloria followed orders immediately!


    That day, Willow got an invitation to a popr variety show. She more or less thought that it was


    because of Benjamin, so she wanted to call and thank him.


    But she didn''t have his personal phone number, so she could only call hispany.


    After call forwarding several times, Paisley answered her call and said politely, "I will tell Mr. rk


    about it."


    Willow hurriedly thanked Paisley.


    Willow put down the phone, and Elizabeth was on the side.


    Elizabeth smoked a slender cigarette and said slowly, "You are still too simple now and can''tpare


    with Madelyn! Don''t think you can win just because you are young. Compared to temperament,


    Madelyn has been cultivated by a rich and respected family, and you''re no match! But you won''t be


    worse than her when you be an A-list actress!"


    Willow was the ace in Elizabeth''s hand.


    Elizabeth would spend a lot of money to make her popr!


    Every man knew how to choose between a young and beautiful lover and a wife who was against him.


    Elizabeth left the office building.


    Unexpectedly, she received a call from Daniel. She was in a daze for a long time when she saw the


    call.


    Finally, she answered the phone and said in a harsh voice, "Mr. Campbell, why are you calling me


    today? I thought you''d forgotten about me a long time ago."


    "I need to meet you!"


    ...


    Daniel hung up the phone.


    He was in his office, ying with the emerald green ne in his hand.


    Madelyn asked her assistant to return the birthday gift he gave, and she didn''t even leave a word for


    him. He really didn''t understand why she refused him since she had a bad life now.


    Daniel raised his eyes slightly and looked at the picture on theptop.


    He got the video that was yed on the school anniversary.


    These days, he had watched it many times, but Madelyn was still unmoved.


    About ten minutester, Daniel set off.


    He made an appointment with Elizabeth to meet at the hotel.


    In a luxury suite, Elizabeth was wearing sexy silk pajamas and a nightgown of the same color. She was


    leaning on the sofa drinking red wine, indeed looking a bit charming.


    Daniel came in.


    Elizabeth smiled softly, "Hey, are you here to plead for your sweetheart?"


    Daniel sat opposite her.


    He had had a rtionship with her, so he directly poured himself a ss of red wine without putting on


    an act.


    Elizabeth just stared at him.


    When Elizabeth was in her 20s, she had a sense of great inferiority in front of Daniel. Because she was


    unclean and had been with Jackson, she could only be Daniel''s secret lover even if she had sex with


    him.


    But now the situation was different.


    At this age, whoever was rich had the right to speak.


    Daniel drank two sses of wine and then looked at Elizabeth. "Don''t let your guy destroy Madelyn''s


    family."


    Holding the wine ss, Elizabeth raised her head with a sweet smile.


    Sheughed to tears before asking, "Why? Do you feel distressed? Are you afraid she will cry


    secretly?"


    Elizabeth approached, leaned in Daniel''s arms, and teased him with her slender fingers. "Daniel, how


    many times do I have to tell you before you believe me? Madelyn is no longer the pitiful little girl now!


    Otherwise, why can she be the young hostess of the rk family all the time?"


    "Then you shouldn''t have provoked her!"


    "But I don''t like her! Because of her, Christian has been sentenced, and my wealth dropped by more


    than half at once. How could I not hate her?"


    ...


    Elizabeth gritted her teeth and said, "One day, I will surpass her!"


    Daniel had been through a lot.


    He had been taught a good lesson by the rk family and Keh. Even when Madelyn was in


    charge of the Everest Group, he had taken a beating, so he always believed that Elizabeth was no


    match for her.


    But Willow...


    Daniel felt that she would hurt Madelyn.


    Elizabeth held his gorgeous face and said in a quivering voice, "Daniel, if you sleep with me, I won''t let


    Willow get close to Benjamin."


    Daniel was not naive or stupid.


    But he didn''t mind sleeping with Elizabeth.


    He thought it was no big deal.


    In addition, Daniel came to the hotel today intending to sleep with Elizabeth, because he found that a


    despicable person like him just matched her. He didn''t need to pretend in front of her and could give full


    vent to his feelings. He even didn''t need to keep a little bit of a sense of shame.


    A few hours of intense sex filled the loss in his heart.


    The sky was dark.


    Daniel leaned on the sofa to smoke, while Elizabeth put her arms around his waist and said softly,


    "Don''t leave tonight!"


    But he pushed her away and started to get dressed.


    He thought, "It''s just a one-night stand. And hugging each other intimately and spending the night


    together is only a joke..."


    After Daniel left, Elizabeth was so angry that she threw away her pillow.


    ...


    Downstairs in the hotel, Daniel was sitting in the car.


    His sexual desire was satisfied, but his heart was extremely empty because he would never get what


    he really wanted.


    Madelyn! Madelyn!


    Daniel was driving a ck sports car, in a daze.


    He did not believe in reincarnation.


    But at this time, he really wanted to have the next life. If there was the next life, he wanted to cherish


    Madelyn... He wanted to give her happiness and make her suffer less!


    On thete autumn night, the drizzle was misty.


    Daniel drove to the vi where Madelyn lived and found the lights inside were warm.


    He imagined her in there, teaching the children to y the piano, and that she made them cupcakes.


    On the way home, Gabrie called Daniel and told him about the chores at home, as well as his sister''s

    unhappy marriage.


    The wiper was swinging from side to side.


    But the rain gradually got heavier, and Daniel couldn''t see the road ahead clearly.


    Daniel held his mobile phone, absent-mindedly, and he did not notice that arge muck truck on the left


    turned over... After a sharp braking sound, the behemoth squashed the ck sports car.


    Blood slowly flowed from Daniel''s forehead, blocking his view.


    He hurt everywhere!


    His body could hardly move. It was dark all around, and he knew he was dying.


    Daniel unfastened his seat belt with difficulty.


    He gently put his bleeding hand into the pocket, and there was an emerald green ne in a soft


    cloth inside.


    He took it out with his trembling hand.


    The ne was not broken!


    It was that Daniel had bought Madelyn with many sincere wishes. Fortunately, it was not broken!


    Daniel hadn''t known how much he loved Madelyn before, and he finally knew he loved her extremely


    on the school anniversary. In his thirties, he was sitting next to his beloved girl... But she had an


    unhappy life.


    He knew then that it was his retribution.


    He thought, "Madelyn... I''m just a despicable person. I dare not beg you to shed tears for me, but I just


    want to beg you to ept my love... Maybe you don''t believe it, but I, Daniel, really loved you very


    much!"


    Darkness slowly enveloped Daniel.


    At thest moment of his life, he remembered that night.


    He went home and opened the door. Under the warm light, Madelyn was waiting for him bending over


    the table after cooking...

 Chapter 350 Daniel Died in a Car Accident! (2)

    Chapter 350 Daniel Died in a Car ident! (2)


    Chapter 350 Daniel Died in a Car ident! (2)


    At night, Madelyn received a call from Daniel''s sister Sophia. Sophia said in a voice choked with tears,


    "Madelyn, Daniel is dying! Can youe to see him onest time?"


    Madelyn was in a daze for a moment.


    Thest time she saw Daniel was on the day of the school anniversary.


    Sophia cried and said, "He had a car ident! He is on his deathbed but keeps calling your name. He


    even still holds the ne for you in his hand."


    The phone in Madelyn''s hand dropped...


    Late at night, she appeared in the hospital dressed in ck.


    Daniel still passed away before Madelyn''s arrival.


    The white cloth covered his face.


    The Campbell family cried sadly. Putting aside Daniel''s character, he had always been his family''s


    pir, but at this time he was gone all of a sudden.


    Seeing Madelyn, Sophia burst into tears. "Daniel, Madelyn is here!"


    Madelyn walked over slowly.


    Under the incandescent light, she gently uncovered the white cloth. Daniel''s face had been wiped clean


    and looked the same as usual, except that it was paler than usual.


    Madelyn gently stroked his face and whispered, "Daniel, the grudges between us have long gone, and I


    stopped ming you a long time ago! Why bother?"


    Daniel was in a car ident near Madelyn''s house.


    When the ambnce came, he still held the ne in his hand.


    Madelyn had mixed feelings.


    She had loved Daniel and also hated him deeply, but these feelings would dissipate with his death.


    There would be no more Daniel in this world.


    Tears rolled down from the corner of Madelyn''s eye...


    She slowly covered the white cloth and whispered, "Goodbye, Daniel!"


    Madelyn didn''t stay much and left soon.


    When she reached the aisle, Sophia caught up.


    "Madelyn!"


    Madelyn turned her head.


    Sophia approached slowly, her voice hoarse from crying. "On his deathbed, Daniel asked me to give


    you two things! He wanted you to take a look."


    The two things were the ne and a key.


    Sophia covered her lips and said, "Daniel bought the ne with all his sincere blessings, but no one


    gave him a blessing."


    Madelyn took the things in silence.


    Sophia sniffled and continued, "Madelyn, my mom is too embarrassed to apologize to you. So, she


    asked me to apologize to you. She said that if she could persuade Daniel back then, maybe you two


    could live a very happy life! He... He really loved you! Madelyn, what I''m most afraid of is that you don''t


    believe that he liked you... Actually, he hasn''t had a good time these years!"


    Madelyn was also inconsble.


    After all, everyone''s first love was unforgettable!


    Besides, Daniel didn''t acquire a peaceful end.


    Madelyn sat in the car, Henry looked at her expression and asked softly, "Mrs. rk, are we going


    home now or..."


    Madelyn lowered her head.


    In her hand was the key.


    She said softly, "I want to go somewhere!"


    Henry didn''t ask anymore and drove the car directly to an old residential area in the east of the city. He


    didn''t follow Madelyn, sitting in the car and waiting.


    Madelyn went up alone.


    Many years ago, the Campbell family temporarily lived here when they were down. In such a small


    house with only 861 square feet, all its family members lived in this ce.


    At that time, Madelyn often came over to cook for Daniel.


    He was always busy...


    When he came back, Madelyn often fell asleep on the dining table.


    It was full of her youth here.


    Madelyn opened the door, and it was the same as before, except that some more things were added. It


    could be seen that this ce was often cleaned, and there was even a te of washed fruit on the


    table.


    On the wall, there was a huge painting hanging.


    It was a photo of Madelyn and Daniel on campus.


    Madelyn in the photo, who was in her 20s, expressed her love to Daniel...


    There was also a photo of them on the bedside table in the bedroom.


    Madelyn stood quietly for a while, then walked to the kitchen to open the refrigerator, which had many


    fruits and vegetables. She calmly took out some and made some simple dishes, which were Daniel''s


    Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.


    favorite.


    After cooking, she brought these to the table.


    Madelyn thought, if a human really had a soul, Daniel would remember toe back for a meal!


    Madelyn left the key when she left.


    She would nevere again in the future!


    When she went downstairs, the night wind blew, making her face cold.


    Madelyn didn''t know if they would have a good life if Daniel hadn''t betrayed her back then, but she


    knew that there was no turning back for all the choices. She had loved him, but when he was dying, all


    she could do for him was cook a meal....


    ...


    Downstairs, the scene was a bit chaotic.


    Elizabeth was here and there were a few members of the Campbell family. In particr, Sophia was


    pulling Elizabeth and cried with tears, "Daniel has already passed away. Elizabeth, what on earth are


    you going to do?"


    Elizabeth lost her wits.


    She was so emotional that her chest heaved violently. She stared at Madelyn and shouted, "He died for


    you!"


    "He found me and interceded for you! After leaving, he went to see you. He was still thinking of you


    even if he was dying... He also kept this ce well, and he came to clean the house every week and


    waited! Madelyn, have you ever missed him at all?"


    ...


    Elizabeth was desperate and jealous.


    She seemed to be crazy, and the people around her were pulling her.


    Madelyn said very calmly, "I''m married!"


    She got married, so how could she miss her former lover?


    Daniel was dead...


    Madelyn might be sad, but she couldn''t return the same feelings. They indeed lost each other, not to


    mention that Daniel once did something bad to the Green family.


    Henry opened the car door for Madelyn.


    Madelyn got into the car. The end of her nose was slightly red, and she said softly, "Let''s go!"


    The ck RV drove away slowly.


    Elizabeth was still crying and shouting. She thought, "It was me who did the most intimate thing with


    Daniel before he died. But why did he only think of Madelyn? Even the Campbell family gave her what


    he cherished most!"


    On the autumn night, the rain became heavier.


    Elizabeth knelt on the ground and cried bitterly...
