Chapter 306 Benjamin's Cunning Move
The lighting was dim.
Benjamin's face was obscured, his impulsiveness getting the better of him just now. He would have taken her by now if it weren't for Madelyn's intervention.
But what could he do after taking her body?
At most, it would be physical satisfaction.
That was not enough!
He felt that he wanted more than that!
Madelyn's fingers trembled as she fastened her buttons.
Without looking back, she headed upstairs, stumbling slightly along the way.
Benjamin didn't stop her.
He didn't go upstairs to check on the children; his mind was in turmoil.
When he sat in the car, he lit a cigarette.
A few days ago, he had already decided to give up. Just as Madelyn had suggested, separation may be best for both of them.
But a little boy had broken his defences.
He felt uncomfortable about it.
He dared not imagine what would happen if he really let go of her. Would Madelyn indulge in relationships with those persistent younger boys?
Benjamin sat in the car, slowly smoking.
The smoke rose, filling the car and blurring his face.
He smoked four or five cigarettes before gently pressing the accelerator and leaving the villa. The bodyguards at the villa entrance saw him, and their expressions were somewhat uneasy. Late at night, Benjamin returned to the Clarks' mansion.
Alexander was still awake, clearly waiting for him.
Benjamin walked in and sat on the sofa, letting out a long sigh.
Alexander glanced at him and said unkindly, "Don't you have a place to stay? Do you have to live with us old folks?"
Benjamin narrowed his eyes slightly. "Isn't Eloise living here too?"
Alexander sneered. "Can your sister be in the same situation as you?"
Benjamin smiled.
His father looked at him and reluctantly said after a while, "Ever since you divorced Madelyn, your mother has been crying a lot. You tell me, how useless are you?" Benjamin squinted his eyes.
He was momentarily lost in thought before asking softly, "Dad, do you also hope that we reconcile?"
Alexander coughed lightly.
His voice was slow and leisurely, "That's not what I mean! It doesn't make much difference whether you two reconcile or not. Your mother and I were wondering if you could move out. In this case, maybe Madelyn would be willing to move back home."
Then, they would have grandchildren to take care of!
Benjamin couldn't help but laugh and cry. "Dad, how could Madelyn possibly move back?"
Alexander glared at him.
After a while, he got up and walked towards the stairs, shaking his head as he walked. "It's better for you to forget everything and not come back home!"
Benjamin leaned back on the sofa.
The light was too bright; it felt dazzling, and he covered his eyes.
When alone, he couldn't help but think about what happened earlier.
He and Madelyn were mature adults at a young age with passionate desires. It wasn't comfortable to stop halfway.
He really wanted her!
But he couldn't explain clearly what exactly was so good about her.
He wanted to possess this person!
Eloise slowly descended the stairs, holding her phone in her hand.
She wanted to make a call in the yard. Kenneth had called, and she didn't dare answer the call upstairs for fear of her parents overhearing, so she went downstairs and ran into Benjamin unexpectedly. Eloise hung up the phone.
Sitting beside Benjamin, she anxiously asked, "Are you still thinking about Madelyn?"
Benjamin reached out and put his arm around Eloise's shoulder.
Eloise leaned against his shoulder. It had been long since they had been this close as siblings. She was soft and gentle, like when they were children, resting their heads together.
They stayed like this for a while before Benjamin spoke in a hoarse voice, "Tell me about my past with Madelyn!"
Eloise was a little puzzled. "Why do you want to know this?"
"Just tell me!"
Eloise didn't have many reservations, so she began recounting from the beginning. Luckily, she had a good relationship with Madelyn, and Madelyn had told her many things. Benjamin quietly listened.
It was late at night and four in the morning.
Eloise's mouth grew dry from talking, and she was exhausted. "That's all!"
Benjamin patted her head and gently said, "Go to sleep now!"
Eloise was worried. "Ben, what's wrong with you today?"
Benjamin smiled and didn't say anything.
He sat downstairs for another half an hour until dawn approached, then walked to his bedroom. Sitting at the end of the bed, he opened a notebook.
Yes, he made a copy of the notebook.
He looked through the notes left by "Ben" and added what Eloise had said.
It all connected.
The next day, at Bravo Legal Firm, Paisley watched as Benjamin signed the documents and was about to distribute them when Benjamin stopped her. "Paisley, can you help me replace an address?" Paisley was surprised. "Mr. Clark, are you working overtime?"
Benjamin adjusted his tie and cleared his throat. "No! It's about Madelyn's mother! She's currently living in Gredax, right?"
Paisley smiled. "I know where her mother lives! I often deliver things to Camila on behalf of Ms. Green!"
She wrote down the address for Benjamin.
Benjamin arrived at Camila's apartment an hour later with his hands packed.
"Who is it?" Camila came to open the door and froze.
"Ben!"
Benjamin smiled lightly and greeted affectionately, "Mom, I came to see you!"
Camila:...
Although Benjamin and Madelyn divorced, their past was complicated, and Camila couldn't put on a cold face. "You can come whenever you want, but why did you buy all these things? I haven't finished eating what Maddie bought for me!"
But what she really wanted to ask was how they were doing now!
Benjamin took off his coat and hung it on the rack.
Naturally, he changed into indoor slippers and crouched down to unpack a package. "It's not for eating! It's a foot massager. I heard from Paisley that this brand is particularly effective for leg pain. Let me fill it with water so you can try it!"
After Benjamin finished speaking, he went to the bathroom to fill it with water and brought it back.
Camila was shocked.
She couldn't believe that Ben was calling her Mom and giving her a foot massage. It was too much for her! She secretly sent a WhatsApp message to Madelyn: "Have you reconciled with Ben? He came to see
me."
As soon as she finished sending the message, she saw Benjamin standing at the room doorway.
Camila smiled uncomfortably.
Benjamin smiled and said, "Mom, we haven't reconciled! I just came today to see you."
He supported Camila gently and said, "Come and try the water temperature! If it's not suitable for me, I'll change it."
Camila was overwhelmed by the gentleness of her ex-son-in-law!
Ben was good-looking, and when he sincerely wanted to please someone, no one could resist him.
But Camila cared about her daughter. She carefully considered for a while before saying, "Ben, I'm happy that you came to see me, but I have to respect Maddie's opinion of your relationship with her." Benjamin gently massaged her calf and smiled lightly, "Mom, what are you thinking? I just want to talk to you and learn about Madelyn's childhood!"
Camila's heart softened.
She thought of the past and the memories of raising Madelyn with Samuel.
She was quite moved and spoke more than she intended.
Benjamin patiently listened all along, and later, he stayed for dinner. When he drove back, it was already 9 p.m.
Just as he got into the car, Madelyn's call arrived.
