Chapter 39 Benjamin Is Coming Back II
Things didn't go as planned. Paisley's flight was delayed due to the plane malfunction.
In the lounge, she called Benjamin but he had turned off his phone during the trial.
It wasn't until noon when the trial had ended that Benjamin turned on his phone and saw Paisley's
message. He frowned and thought for a moment.
Then, his client Jonathan sent his assistant over, who said to him respectfully, "Mr. Clark, my boss, Mr.
Hunter, would like to invite you for dinner."
Benjamin put away his phone and replied with a smile, "Please extend my gratitude to Mr. Hunter for
inviting me, but I'm afraid I won't be able to join you for the dinner. I have to hurry to Gredax for
something important."
Just as they spoke, Mr. Hunter himself came over.
In his forties, he was a businessman who looked dashing and elegant. He shook hands with Benjamin
and said with great warmth, "Benjamin, you were quite impressive in court. Since you have important
things to attend to, I won't keep you. When you come to Esrand next time, let me do the honors."
"That's a deal." Benjamin replied gracefully.
Mr. Hunter valued him highly and asked his driver to drive Benjamin to the airport...Paisley, whose flight
had been delayed for half a day, decided to take the same flight back to Gredax with Benjamin.
Before the plane took off, Benjamin gave Madelyn a call again.
Her phone was still turned off!
He frowned and had a feeling that something must have gone wrong.
...
In Gredax...
Madelyn spent all day at home.
Camila was emotionally unstable, so she stayed with her for a long time.
At dusk, Madelyn made dinner and served it to Camila. She said softly when they had dinner, "I'm
going to meet a friend later, someone introduced by Vivian. Hopefully, he might help us."
Camila remained suspicious.
Madelyn held her hand and continued, "That's real! Camila, I want to give it a try."
Perhaps Madelyn hid her true feelings too well, so Camila believed her at last.
After dinner, Madelyn went back to her room and pulled out a large box from which she took out a
photo album. She opened it gently, and there was a picture of her mother when she was young.
Madelyn stroked it gently.
When she was ten years old, her mother passed away, and one year later, her Dad married Camila.
Madelyn remembered that at that time, Dad and Camila often quarreled. Once, Camila cried her heart
out and accused him of being nice to others' child, and that he wouldn't even have a child with her.
At that time, little Madelyn knew she wasn't his biological child. She was very afraid that she would
suddenly be abandoned. So when Dad and Camila didn't quarrel, she would act like a spoiled child and
say she wanted a younger brother or sister.
But Camila never got pregnant!
She loved Samuel deeply, raised Madelyn, and was kind to her later on. How could Madelyn bear to let
such a good woman spend ten or eight years in prison?
A tear fell on the photo, and Madelyn quickly wiped it away.
At the door, Camila saw everything.
Although she was worried, she tried to sound gentle, saying, "Aren't you meeting someone? Tidy
yourself upx before going out."
Madelyn closed the photo album and put it away.
Madelyn got up and changed her clothes. Before leaving, she couldn't help but hug Camila.
Camila felt uneasy.
But when Madelyn looked up, she smiled faintly and told her that Vivian had found someone influential
and that Daniel should show some respect. Then, Camila let her go.
Madelyn leaned against the door for a long time after she slowly closed the door behind her.
--She just sold herself!
Madelyn stared at the sky quietly for a long time, turned around and walked onto the bus. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
By the time she arrived Daniel's villa, it was already 8 pm. Dressed in a suit and tie, Daniel was sitting
on the sofa and drinking wine. The light of the crystal chandelier above reflected the glamour of
luxurious crystals, making his handsome face look even more attractive!
If it were before, Madelyn's heart would flip, but now she only felt disgusted.
Daniel asked in a hoarse voice, "Where did you go? I've been calling you all day!"
