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 such a time, no matter what.
The black car ran fast at night, so they arrived at the hospital half an hour later.
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 tenderness lasted 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 dollars.
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 dollars!"
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 be laughing 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 his company 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 had come 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 proclaim 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's lavatory.
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.
