Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn)
Chapter 305 Are You So Desperate for a Man

Chapter 305 Are You So Desperate for a Man

A week later, Madelyn attended a premiere.

She didn't walk the red carpet and went directly into the auditorium from the backstage.

However, she didn't expect to encounter an acquaintance, especially someone she didn't really want to see.

Charlotte was there!

In such a short time, Charlotte had lost a lot of weight.

She was only twenty-something years old, but her skin had become somewhat dry and yellowish, a weariness that no amount of makeup could hide.

The light pink dress she wore only accentuated her gaunt figure.

A decent-looking man in his thirties accompanied her, but he had a certain greasiness.

Madelyn frowned, feeling like she had seen him somewhere before.

Just then, the acclaimed actress Kaylee rushed over, showing great respect to the man. She constantly referred to him as Mr. Richard.

Upon hearing Mr. Richard, Madelyn remembered him now. This man was Eleanor's ex-husband.

As she looked at Charlotte holding his hand, a wave of disgust washed over her.

Kaylee tried to please both sides, saying, "Stanley, this is Ms. Green from Everest Group."

The man extended his hand towards Madelyn, acting gentlemanly. "I am Stanley, and I have some connections with Ms. Green."

Madelyn found him repulsive.

But she knew Kenneth was investigating this man, so she smiled politely and lightly shook hands with him. Stanley gazed at Madelyn's face and praised, "Ms. Green, it's a shame you're not a celebrity with your look!" Turning his head, he lightly pinched Charlotte's cheek. "She is more beautiful than your sister!"

He treated Charlotte like an obedient dog. Despite her reluctance, she spoke with a tone of submissive agreement. "You're right!" Stanley patted her and gestured at the man in his forties sitting across from them, whom he wanted to cooperate with. Charlotte immediately walked over and linked arms with the man, walking away.

In the entertainment industry, this was not an uncommon sight. Kaylee didn't seem bothered by it. As a celebrity of her status, she didn't need to do something like that. At most, she just had to dedicate herself to Stanley alone. She tried to appease Stanley with her soft voice.

Madelyn glanced at her and went to the restroom. The sign on the door said 'Cleaning in Progress'. The moment she went upstairs, a cleaner complained, "Which asshole puts up that sign!" He then removed the sign, and Madelyn entered.

Inside the restroom, intense intimacy between a man and a woman could be heard. Charlotte's light pink dress was lifted to her waist, and she wobbled and trembled as the man enjoyed himself with her. Even though Madelyn was used to seeing big scenes, she still found herself shocked. The man finished quickly, patted Charlotte's head, and left."

Madelyn walked outside, and two bodyguards immediately approached her, "Ms. Green, are you alright?"

Madelyn shook her head.

At that moment, Charlotte came out, adjusting her clothes. Her face was flushed from the encounter, but she looked better than before when she looked like a ghost.

Charlotte stopped Madelyn, "Can we talk for a minute?"

The bodyguards intervened, blocking her way.

Charlotte pursed her lips and stubbornly looked at Madelyn with a jealous expression.

She was jealous that Madelyn had everything.

After this incident, Madelyn had no interest in watching the premiere. She walked over to the sink and turned on the water.

"Do you look down on me?" Charlotte asked, taking a thin cigarette from her bag, trembling as she lit it.

She took a deep drag and looked back at Madelyn with fierceness in her eyes. "Yes, I used to be a bad girl. But was that my fault? I was taken to the mountains. Do you know who my first man was? It was the old beast who raised me."

"I finally had a chance to change my fate!" Charlotte continued, "But you ruined everything!"

Madelyn smiled calmly, "When you say 'chance', do you mean using your face to seduce Benjamin, destroying his marriage, and becoming his mistress?"

Madelyn couldn't sympathize with Charlotte.

Deep down, Charlotte was just like Eleanor. They only felt pity for themselves and didn't hesitate to hurt others.

Charlotte laughed, her eyes slightly moist, "If I didn't take the thirty thousand, he would have softened eventually. But you were so ruthless. If it weren't for Jackson tempting me, why would I have given myself to someone else so easily?"

She thought she could win Jackson over.

After all, he was young and rich.

Madelyn turned off the faucet and smiled lightly.

"Do you think of yourself as a chaste woman?"

"Yes! I was intentional!"

"I will be disgusted by you and your sister for the rest of my life!"

Madelyn didn't want to get involved with Charlotte anymore and walked out of the restroom.

Outside, Benjamin leaned against the wall, slowly smoking.

The light shone on his handsome features, making him look refined and attractive, but he had no expression.

Madelyn hesitated for a moment when she saw him there, wanting to say something, but in the end, she left without saying a word.

Charlotte ran after her.

She saw Benjamin and was stunned, "Mr. Clark..."

Benjamin finished his cigarette slowly.

His tone was calm and indifferent, "In the future, don't show up in front of Madelyn. Otherwise, I can't guarantee what might happen to you." Charlotte was at a loss.

Was he protecting Madelyn?

Weren't they divorced? Wasn't their relationship not good lately?

Benjamin put out the cigarette butt and turned to leave.

Charlotte caught up to him, her voice slightly trembling, "I was under Stanley's control. I know a lot of things. I can try to get the evidence you want!" Benjamin frowned.

Charlotte's voice became very soft, "Mr. Clark, I just want a chance to reform myself. After this is over, I will leave Gredax and won't bother you again!" As she spoke, she lifted her skirt lightly.

On her thin and weak waist were bruises, and there were countless needle marks on her thighs.

It was terrifying to look at.

Charlotte trembled, "I thought he would treat me well! But I am no better than an animal in his hands, and I will die. Mr. Clark, please save me for Eleanor's sake." She took out a photo from her phone.

It was a photo of 24-year-old Benjamin and 22-year-old Eleanor leaning against a piano.

They were young and vibrant. Years passed in tranquility!

Benjamin looked quietly at the photo.

Even though Eleanor had died, while looking at the photo now, Benjamin didn't have the wonderful feeling of youth but still felt somewhat poignant.

Madelyn didn't watch the movie and went straight back home by car.

She made a phone call to Kenneth while in the car.

To her surprise, Kenneth was also at Gredax, working on the Stanley case.

Kenneth sensed Madelyn's uneasiness.

In a low voice, he said, "Stanley is quite lecherous. We have already started arranging people to get close to him. Once he takes the bait, we can gather evidence against him and lock him up for life." Madelyn felt slightly relieved.

When she arrived at the villa and got out of the car, Benjamin's car followed closely behind.

Madelyn leaned on the car door, looking at him in the darkness.

After a moment, she spoke softly, "It's quite late. Try to come during the daytime in the future!"

Benjamin's voice carried a hint of exhaustion, "I had some business in Esrand and just got back. I wanted to see Everest."

Madelyn thought about their encounter earlier.

He just got off the plane and then went to the premiere?

But now he wanted to see the child, so she couldn't say anything, "Lower your voice; Everest might be asleep!"

The two of them entered the villa.

As soon as they walked in, they noticed a piano in the living room. Benjamin looked slightly puzzled.

He seemed casual about it, "Did you move the piano over here?"

Madelyn responded with an "Mmm."

Benjamin walked over and gently caressed the black and white piano keys, his expression obscure.

Madelyn quietly watched.

This piano held too many memories for her and Benjamin, but he didn't remember. She felt sad and said, "I'll go upstairs first!"

Just then, her phone rang.

She answered the call without thinking too much since it was from an unknown number.

To her surprise, it was Michael, the top star from the private banquet that night. She didn't know how he got a hold of her phone number. Michael knew how to flirt and had good boundaries.

He called Madelyn "Miss" and said he saw her just now, but before he could say anything, she had already left.

Madelyn casually responded with a few words and hung up the phone.

Just as she hung up, Benjamin grabbed hold of her.

Her slender body pressed against the piano.

The piano trembled as if crying out in sorrow.

Benjamin lowered his head, staring at the woman beneath him, his voice low and dangerous, "Madelyn, do you like that kind of little boy?"

Madelyn felt somewhat indignant, "What's it to you? Benjamin, let go of me!"

He didn't release her.

He didn't know why, but he was very angry.

It hadn't been long since their divorce, and she...

Not only did he not let go of her, he used his slender fingers to lightly caress her body, then firmly unbuttoned her skirt. "Is Ms. Green so desperate for a man? Can that kind of little boy satisfy you? How about we satisfy each other since we've done it countless times before? Even if you don't like me, I think you still like this body. What do you think? I don't mind being the substitute for the former Ben."

He even whispered maliciously in her ear, "Turn off the lights, and feel free to call me Ben while you hold on to me! Imagine me as him, and I believe you'll soon..."

He knew he shouldn't say such things. Her rejection last time had severely wounded his pride.

He really did come tonight to see Everest, but when he heard the little boy being attentive to her, he became angry.

"You are just so fond of provoking men, aren't you?"

"When you are flirting with men, remember to avoid the presence of children, hmm?"

Madelyn felt both embarrassed and angry.

She dared not scream in case Everest woke up and saw them.

Benjamin unbuttoned all of her buttons.

He kissed her chin and coaxed, "How did he used to serve you? Tell me, I won't do worse than him."

Although he asked like that, his slender fingers had already slipped under her skirt.

A faint, fragmented sound escaped from Madelyn's throat.

There was a large mirror on the side of the piano, and by simply turning her head, she could see her body being twisted and played with in a distorted angle by him.

She struggled hard, her brows turning a pale shade of blue.

Benjamin leaned in and kissed her, his voice hoarse, "Ms. Green, do you want the house servants or the bodyguards to come and see you in this state?"

"Do you want to see yourself in your current state?"

Madelyn didn't want to at all!

He was a bastard, resorting to force when he couldn't get what he wanted.

Benjamin lifted her up and carried her in front of the mirror, making her see her wretched appearance.

"Look at yourself like this! And you say you don't want me!"

"Who else but me could make you look like this?"

Madelyn was in disarray.

She turned her body in his embrace and pressed herself against the mirror. She lifted her slender neck and sneered, "I'm sorry, but I'm not that desperate for a man!"
