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 blamed 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 relationship. 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 famous lawyer 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 Clark 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. Clark'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 wealthy lady. 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. Clark!"

And it immediately became a trending topic!

Five minutes later, the tweet was deleted. But the gossipy netizens 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 Clark 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?"

Joseph laughed, "The development plan 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 uncomfortable. 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. Clark, 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 planning 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 too late 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 black RV stopped in front of a villa 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's late. 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?"

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 glass 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 accept 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 a late-night snack and softly said, "Benjamin, you haven't eaten well for days."

Benjamin smiled and accepted 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.
