Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn) -
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 become 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 and comforting 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 she last 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-in-law!"
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 place 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 glass 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't come 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-in-law, 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 necklace.
It was the only thing she brought from the Clark 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 would come back tomorrow. Eloise accepted 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 place, 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 Daddy comes 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 relationship 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 really complicated!"
In the evening, eight o'clock.
Benjamin came home from overtime work, and Madelyn was teaching Everest to play 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 played skillfully. Benjamin sat next to Madelyn and was about to tease her.
Suddenly, his gaze froze... Madelyn saw him return and stopped playing, asking gently, "Have you eaten?"
Benjamin chuckled, "You're suddenly so gentle, I'm actually a little unaccustomed!... 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 particularly 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 blanket 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 contemplated 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 replace it hard to handle! Madelyn was trying to please him. She placed 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, come back with two!"
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 uncomfortable, 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 place.
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!"
