Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn) -

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 blacked out, and the scene was in chaos.
The Clark family hurriedly helped William.
"William! William!"
"Mr. Bennett, 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. Bennett, this is my mother's home. She is my father's legal wife. Where are you taking her? The Bennett'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 Camila, 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 Camila, 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 Camila!"
Madelyn lowered her eyes and whispered, "No, the car is waiting. Mr. Clark, just go back!"
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 Camila returned home, but they felt a little lonely because one person would never come back.
The two ate in silence.
After the meal, Camila called Madelyn over and handed her a house proprietary certificate.
Madelyn suddenly raised her eyes and asked, "Camila?"
Camila 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 Camila and said in a choked voice, "Why are you leaving? I want you to stay with me!"
Camila 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!"
Camila 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 Camila and murmured, "I'll call you Mom, okay? I'll call you Mom. Please don't leave me!"
Camila's body froze.
Madelyn hugged Camila tighter.
Madelyn said in a very low voice, "Mom, don't leave me."
Madelyn was just like the little girl timidly called Camila when Camila first met her.
Camila cried!
Since Samuel's death, Camila 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 Camila Mom...
Camila 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 Camila's arms and gently got the warmth from her body.
In the afternoon, Camila 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. Bennett, these things..."
Madelyn looked at the tonics and continued, "I know your mind, but I really dare not accept 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 Bennett family.
Madeline married a man and was laid to rest. William had no choice, but Madelyn was the only child of the Bennett 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 play 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 become a top musician, to comfort 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 becoming 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. Bennett. 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 Camila to see William off.
Camila 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..."
Camila 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. Bennett, you care a great deal for your adopted daughter, but only Samuel and I care about Madelyn."
Camila's words made William heartache as if he was shot so many times!
