Chapter 275 Benjamin, Remember to Go Home!
Early in the morning, Everest woke Benjamin up as she sat on him.
As he opened his eyes, he found a tea-colored curly-haired bundle on top of him, yelling, "Daddy, I
need to go to the bathroom!"
Benjamin shielded his eyes!
He really didn't want to get up, but this was his own child!
He had to sit up and help the little one out of the one-piece pajamas while asking, "Where's your
mommy?"
Everest's eyes sparkled. "Mommy's making breakfast for Everest!"
Making breakfast...
Did the Clark family need a housewife?
Was she really so diligent?
Benjamin got a bit distracted, and with his unskilled movements, by the time he regained his focus,
Everest had already cried... The crotch of the pajamas was warm.
A few warm drops had fallen on him.
Everest looked embarrassed!
Her once-white and tender face was now wrinkled, and she seemed very upset.
Madelyn came up from downstairs, a bit surprised to see that Everest had wet herself. But she quickly
embraced the child and comforted her gently, and with her mother's tenderness, the little one squirmed
a bit uncomfortably but stopped crying.
Madelyn fetched clean clothes for her.
Everest promptly took off her clothes, revealing her small body and big head.
She was really cute...
Benjamin raised his leg and sat up, saying, "She can undress herself, so why should I do it for her?
Otherwise, she won't wet herself!"
Madelyn remained silent for a while before speaking, "You used to take care of her until she was three
years old. She knew how to do many things, but she hasn't seen you for many days, and she misses
you and wants to be spoiled..."
But Benjamin had forgotten...
He not only forgot to love her, but also how to care for Everest.
After Madelyn finished speaking, she went into the bathroom to prepare a bath for Everest. When she
came out, she tidied up the bed and the floor.
Benjamin silently watched Madelyn.
She looked like a typical homemaker, very gentle and soft. He thought that if he desired marriage, he
should easily accept her!
But he didn't like married life.
He felt it was constraining!
Benjamin wiped himself clean, changed into new clothes in the dressing room, and after finishing his
morning routine, he slowly went downstairs.
Downstairs, Alexander sneakily glanced at his son.
"Oh, he's dressed like an elite, but he really gets on my nerves!" Alexander thought.
And then he looked at the two soft and tender little babies, and he couldn't help but adore them...
Everest put on a pretty dress and sat at the dining table, trying hard to eat her food. When she saw
Benjamin coming downstairs, she was quite accommodating, "I forgive you for what happened just
now!"
Benjamin didn't know what to say. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
Everest shook her head and said, "I'm willing to give you a chance to make amends!"
Benjamin sat down next to her, grabbed a cup of coffee, and took a sip. "How do I make amends?"
"Take me to kindergarten!"
"But both Mommy and Daddy have to go."
Benjamin looked at Madelyn next to him and lowered his voice, "Did you teach her this?"
Madelyn was a bit annoyed.
She straightforwardly admitted, "Yes! You can choose not to go!"
Benjamin smiled. "Since you are so calculated, how can I not satisfy you?" He then lightly teased her
soft and tender cheek!
So soft, so tender!
He felt that the best thing about this marriage was that she fit perfectly with his aesthetics!
Alexander watched his son's frivolous behavior and got angry. "Mind your manners when you speak,
and don't be handsy! Madelyn is your legally wedded wife, not some random woman. Show some
respect!"
Benjamin just smiled faintly.
He didn't argue back and, instead, kindly dropped off Everest at kindergarten and even graciously
drove Madelyn back to the villa.
But he didn't go inside!
Madelyn wasn't foolish.
She didn't expect him to return to family life all at once. She remembered that in the past, he had a wild
private life. While he didn't engage in promiscuous relationships, he wasn't a man who couldn't let
loose in social settings!
Madelyn got out of the car...
Benjamin remained in the car, rolled down the window, and lit a cigarette.
Madelyn asked softly, "Are you coming home tonight?"
Benjamin leaned on the car window, took a slow drag of his cigarette, and smiled lightly at her
question. "If I don't come home, will you go and tell my dad to force us to sleep in the same bed
again?"
Madelyn tilted her head slightly-
This version of Benjamin was really a jerk!
When facing him again, she took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Clark, remember to come home!"
Benjamin's gaze was clear, and a hint of a smirk played at the corner of his mouth, "Is Mrs. Clark giving
me a pass?"
Madelyn wasn't going to let him off that easily!
She quietly looked at him for a moment, then turned and walked into the villa, back into their once-
shared home.
But as she walked, tears welled up in her eyes.
She had experienced just how deep Benjamin's love could be, and now she was feeling the sharp pain
of being stabbed by it!
In the days that followed, he didn't come home!
She knew he was staying in his apartment.
Everest kept asking, and Madelyn gently comforted her, feeling guilty for her daughter.
But she also understood that it was impossible to tie him down with their child!
The old Benjamin was like a wild horse!
Madelyn wasn't without anxiety in her heart, but she had to endure it. She was pregnant and couldn't
afford to quarrel with him or confront him directly.
Women always ended up losing when they went head-to-head with men!
Early in the morning, after dropping off Everest, she was asked by the driver, "Mrs. Clark, are we going
to the hospital for a check-up now?"
Madelyn lowered her gaze slightly and said, "We're going to the office!"
The driver nodded and drove to Everest Group. When the car stopped, Paisley, her secretary, came
over and opened the car door, looking somewhat surprised, "Mrs. Clark, aren't you supposed to have a
check-up today?"
Madelyn was dressed in a white suit, and her belly was showing.
She lightly supported her waist and smiled. "There's something I need to take care of today!"
Paisley, her secretary, was attentive.
She also knew that Benjamin had returned, and she felt happy for Madelyn. When they reached the
top-floor office, Paisley, the secretary, naturally said a few words of congratulations.
Madelyn sat behind her desk, slowly sipping half a cup of milk, and suddenly asked, "Paisley, how
many years have you been with Ben?"
Paisley, the secretary, smiled and said, "I've been with him for about seven or eight years."
Madelyn stared at her and spoke softly, "Ben has forgotten many things, and I'm very worried. Plus, I
don't have anyone reliable to help me. Paisley, I want you to go back to him!"
Paisley was visibly startled.
She wasn't a fool, and she understood Madelyn's implication. She was being asked to go undercover!
She was in a dilemma.
If she betrayed Mr. Clark and was discovered, she would be in big trouble. After all, the position she
held now was a golden ticket!
Madelyn opened the drawer, took out her checkbook, and wrote a check for 1.4 million.
Additionally, there's another key.
"A 180-square-meter fully furnished apartment in Eimtin District, plus a 1.4 million check! Even if Ben
divorces you, this should be enough for you to live comfortably. Furthermore, I promise you can return
to work at Everest Group!"
Paisley was left dumbfounded by this generous offer.
That 180-square-meter apartment would cost around 4.2 million, and adding the check on top of it...
Mrs. Clark was really generous!
Madelyn not only used the financial incentive but also pushed for an emotional feel. "I deeply love Ben!
But now I'm pregnant, and I don't have the energy to win him back. Yet, I'm worried about him...
Paisley, can you understand the predicament of being both a wife and a mother?"
Paisley hesitated for a while.
She said, "Mrs. Clark, rest assured, I... Stand on your side!"
Madelyn stood up and gently placed the key and check in her pocket, smiling softly. "I won't interfere in
minor matters, but if there are any special people around him, you must let me know!"
Paisley, the secretary, couldn't help but nod.
She felt that Madelyn was different now. Had she been provoked by Benjamin yesterday?
Paisley left.
Madelyn made a phone call to Benjamin. Her voice was gentle, "Ben, today is my prenatal check-up
day. Do you have time to accompany me?"
Benjamin was at his law firm.
He was surprised to receive Madelyn's call. He hadn't returned to her for the past few days, and she
hadn't made any phone calls either. Now, she was calling him on her own initiative!
He didn't mind accompanying her for the check-up. After all, it was his child.
But he had an appointment with a client in the morning.
Benjamin politely declined, making Madelyn feel that if she insisted, it would be unreasonable.
She was quite docile and said softly, "Alright, then I'll have Mr. Herman accompany me."
On the other end of the phone, Benjamin frowned.
Mr. Herman...
Joseph Herman?
He remembered that he used to work for him, managing finances. Now, he was under Madelyn's
command?
And he had even reached the point where he could accompany her for a prenatal check-up?
