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 placed the plate of fruit down and sat in his lap. She placed 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. Clark, 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 planned to transfer all 65% of Everest Group's shares under his name to his wife Madelyn. It would become effective immediately upon her signature on the share transfer documents and subsequent notarization by a lawyer.

Benjamin carefully reviewed the documents.

Then he handed them over to Madelyn and said softly, "While the Clark 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 the company 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 planning 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 planning 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. Clark 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 uncomfortable.

She took over as the new CEO of Everest Group, a company valued at over 27.4 billion dollars, in place 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 black 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 interlaced, 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 placed 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 place where their relationship 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 was late at night when they returned to their villa.

Madelyn, who was exhausted, fell into a slumber, but Everest was awake...

She was always a sensitive child, and lately, she could feel the tension in their home. Though feeling nervous, she was considerate and didn't bother her parents.

The little girl lay awake with her eyes open.

Benjamin wrapped her in a small blanket, carried her to the living room, and gently put her to bed.

The room was bathed in warm, yellow light.

Everest lay on her father's lap 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 place 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.

She lay 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...
