Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn)

Chapter 138 You're Shameless

Chapter 138 You're Shameless

Madelyn's face was pale.

Benjamin reached out to touch her face, and Madelyn subconsciously took a step back.

In the end, he withdrew his hand.

"No matter what, your health has been impaired."

"Madelyn, I'm worried about you."

"Let me take care of you."

...

Madelyn listened to Benjamin quietly.

She looked at him expressionlessly. "Mr. Clark, do I have to be blunt with you? I know you like me, but

your affection is not strong enough. Whenever something happens to Eleanor, you go to see her

without any demure. You didn't care if I felt sad or lay on the operating table."

As Madelyn spoke, she felt a great pang in her heart.

However, she managed to smile at him.

"Mr. Clark, I can't afford to love you."

Benjamin got near her.

He gently held her head and tried to kiss her, intending to win her back

At least, she would recall their past affection.

Madelyn was taken aback.

She froze in his tender embrace, numb with the sharp pain in her heart.

She somehow managed to push him away.

"Benjamin, how can you be so shameless?"

"Do you think I'm a pet at your beck and call? If you want to have a sex partner, you can easily find a

group of women considering your wealth and appearance. You don't have to pester me."

Benjamin's eyes darkened.

He said, "Do you think I only want to sleep with you?"

Madelyn asked with trembling lips, "What else do you want? To marry me?"

Benjamin panted heavily.

He clenched his fists. After struggling inside for a good while, he said wearily, "Madelyn, I don't plan to

get married. It's not that I want to play with your affection. I don't plan to marry anyone in my life."

Madelyn lowered her eyes.

She gave a faint smile and said, "Don't worry. I don't plan to interfere with your life."

After she spoke, she was about to close the door.

Benjamin stopped her.

He frowned slightly and said, "In my eyes, you're more important than Eleanor."

Madelyn raised her eyes and stared at him unblinkingly.

There was surprise and anger in her eyes.

As if hearing the most hilarious joke of the century, she repeated softly, "I'm more important than

Eleanor?"

Benjamin wore an earnest expression.

Madelyn gave a faint smile and said, "I remember that you're handling an economic dispute for

Eleanor. Benjamin, since you said I was more important than her, I'll ask you to give up her case."

She smiled mockingly. "Can you do that?"

Benjamin frowned.

He didn't mix his work with personal feelings. He wouldn't allow any woman to tell him what to do or

interfere with his work.

He looked at her and said, "Can you change your request?"

Madelyn stooped and picked up the tonics he brought, tossing them out the door.

"I have another request to make. Get lost!"

"Benjamin, don't ever show up in front of me anymore. You're disgusting."

...

Madelyn closed the door.

She leaned against the door and seemed to smell the scent of cigarettes of Benjamin.

She used to enjoy snuggling in his arms.

She liked to cling to his neck and smell his scent, which was mixed with cigarette and aftershave. She

was enchanted by it.

But now, she wanted to stay away from him.

After a while, Vivian came back with a sullen face. It seemed that she had bickered with Benjamin

outside.

Madelyn came back to her senses.

She said, "Don't offend him because of me. Jackson does business with the Clark family, after all."

Vivian looked stubborn.

In fact, her heart ached for Madelyn.

Madelyn opened the breakfast container slowly and said in a soft voice, "Don't worry. I'll get over it."

It would hurt.

But it would be over one day.

After Madelyn rested for a few days, she went back to work.

She couldn't accept the fund from Lincoln because of Daniel, so she apologized to Penelope.

Penelope was philosophical about it.

She patted Madelyn and said, "The globe is round. We can look for other investors. I invited several

potential investors to dinner tonight. Madelyn, go with me."

Madelyn was grateful to Penelope for her generosity.

After chatting with Penelope, she called Mrs. Scott in person.

"Mrs. Scott, I'm sorry I can't work with Mr. Scott. But if Erica still wants to learn from me, I'll try my best

to teach her."

Mrs. Scott had learned what happened from her husband.

Including Daniel.

Including Benjamin.

She admired Madelyn a lot. She had thought Madelyn would get mad, but the latter remained polite

and didn't rely on men.

Mrs. Scott instantly had a good opinion of Madelyn.

She thought, "Ms. Green looks reliable. Although I can rely on my husband, I should have some

investments."

However, Mrs. Scott was smart. She had to see what Benjamin would do.

If he would make the investment, she couldn't snatch it from him.

...

At eight o'clock in the evening.

Madelyn went to have dinner with Penelope. She had just recovered from her sickness, so she couldn't

drink much.

But she had gotten Penelope into big trouble. How could she let Penelope drink so much?

Madelyn drank half a glass of wine in one gulp with a faint smile.

When the strong wine went down into her stomach, she was sickened, but she remained smiling.

"Great! Ms. Green is good at drinking."

"Ms. Green is hospitable."

"Pour more wine for Ms. Green."

...

The atmosphere was cozy under the chandelier in the luxurious private room.

Madelyn drank almost a bottle of red wine.

Her face was unnaturally pale. Penelope saw that and said quietly, "Go to the bathroom. I'll make an

excuse for you to leave later."

Madelyn shook her head. "Let's go together."

Penelope sighed softly.

She knew about Madelyn's relationship with Benjamin. If Madelyn was willing, she could get anything

she liked.

However, Madelyn didn't want to be a mistress.

Penelope felt Madelyn had missed a golden chance, but she admired the latter for that.

She was experienced and good at creating a warm atmosphere. "Let Ms. Green take a break. I'll drink

with Mr. Hunter."

Jonathan Hunter was the general manager of a high-end hotel.

He met Madelyn before and knew she was Benjamin's mistress.

When the men in the room forced Madelyn to drink, he couldn't stop them, so he sent a message to

Benjamin and asked him what was going on.

Madelyn ran to the bathroom.

Her stomach was churning, but she couldn't throw up.

She ran the water and splashed it on her face forcefully. After that, she felt much better.

However, she was drunk...

When she saw the tall figure appearing in the bathroom, she didn't know if it was real or a dream. She

stared at him, her face turning red.

Benjamin went up to her and washed his hands calmly.

Madelyn didn't say a word.

She leaned against the cold tiled wall and looked at him weakly...

Benjamin washed his hands slowly.

They remained silent for a long while. Madelyn finally knew it was real. They did run across each other.

She didn't say anything and turned to leave.

Benjamin said quietly behind her, "Madelyn, is this the life you want?"
