Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn)

Chapter 307 Have You Regained Your Memories

Chapter 307 Have You Regained Your Memories

Benjamin gripped the steering wheel with one hand.

With the phone pressed against his ear, he heard Madelyn's voice on the other end. "Benjamin, did you

go to my mother's place?"

"Yes," he replied.

Surprisingly, his tone was gentle, without a trace of the aggression he had shown the night before.

After hesitating for a moment, Madelyn decided to clarify things. "We're divorced now, so please don't

bother my mother."

Benjamin chuckled lightly.

He asked in return, "What? Am I not allowed to visit my former mother-in-law after the divorce? I think

she is happy to see me."

Being faced with his insolence, Madelyn couldn't do anything about it.

After a pause, she spoke softly, "Fine! If it makes you happy!"

She was about to hang up the phone when Benjamin hurriedly said, "I'm sorry for last night!"

Madelyn remained silent.

Benjamin's voice became even softer and gentler. "I just saw that morningdew piano and got a bit

carried away. After all, we used to be intimate on it, right?"

Madelyn's body trembled.

He mentioned the past.

As Benjamin listened to the rapid breathing on the other end of the phone, he couldn't help but chuckle

softly. "Forgot that Christmas Eve?"

Madelyn tightly grasped the tip of her phone, her fingertips turning white from the force.

Suddenly, she hung up the call.

...

Just as she hung up, the phone rang again. She thought it was Benjamin, and she didn't want to

answer.

However, the phone kept ringing persistently.

When she looked at it again, it turned out to be Vivian.

Madelyn felt apologetic and quickly answered the phone, "Vivian! Sorry!"

Vivian pretended to complain, "What were you doing? You took so long to answer my call! Come out

for a drink!"

Madelyn was about to give her a half-year bonus, so she agreed.

Half an hour later, Madelyn arrived at a well-known bar with Vivian. The place was great, and Vivian

had ordered a small room with an incredible view where half of the Gredax skyline could be seen.

Madelyn handed Vivian a check, much more than Vivian had expected.

Surprised, Vivian said, "Nicolas is competent!"

Madelyn sipped her cocktail and smiled faintly, "Florence is in charge now, and Nicolas occasionally

offers guidance."

Vivian thought of the little wolf dog and felt sorry for him. She then talked about Michael, "He's pretty

good, isn't he? I checked his private life. It's clean. And his family background is also not bad. Do you

not want to date him?"

Madelyn played with the glass and shook her head gently. She looked at the bustling street outside the

French window, where neon lights shone, and her eyes slowly became moist.

Vivian guessed who Madelyn was thinking about and sighed.

Madelyn only ever liked Benjamin.

To ease the atmosphere, Vivian joked, "Since you took over Everest Group, I've invited you out ten

times, but you only came out once!"

Madelyn smiled lightly, "Everest and Francis need to be taken care of."

"What about the two children when you go on a business trip to the South tomorrow?" Vivian asked.

"I will send them to the Clarks' mansion for a week," she said.

...

Early in the morning, she sent the two children to the Clarks' mansion.

It happened to be Saturday, and when Everest heard they were returning to the Clarks' mansion, she

bounced up happily and put on her prettiest dress.

She missed her father!

Madelyn was infected by Everest's happiness and patted her little head, "When you go there,

remember to play with Emerson, okay?"

Everest was already in the back seat, bouncing with excitement.

They drove to the Clarks' mansion in a convoy of several nanny cars and arrived at nine o'clock.

The Clark family was already waiting for them.

Everest played with her grandpa for a while before jumping into Benjamin's arms and asking him to

carry her.

Benjamin kissed her and looked at Madelyn.

Madelyn was dressed casually because she had to go on a business trip. She wore light-colored

casual pants, a high-necked sweater, and a thin woolen coat over it.

Benjamin asked carelessly, "What time is your flight?"

"Eleven o'clock!" Madelyn replied.

Benjamin's gaze deepened.

After a moment, he said, "I'll take you to the airport later."

Madelyn saw his intention and refused softly, "No need. The company will send a car to pick me up!"

Benjamin felt a little disappointed.

Madelyn didn't want to get too close to him, so she chatted with Brianna for a while. Despite her

divorce from Benjamin, she maintained a good relationship with the Clark family.

As she spoke, Benjamin stayed with Everest.

But his gaze remained fixed on Madelyn.

Madelyn only stayed for half an hour when the Everest Group's official car came to pick her up. The

black business car pulled over, and Joseph got out and respectfully greeted Alexander.

Benjamin frowned and asked Madelyn in a low voice, "Is Joseph going too?"

Madelyn looked at him strangely.

Joseph is the vice president of Everest Group, so it's normal for him to go.

Grinding his white teeth, Benjamin personally escorted Madelyn into the car. He held the door for

Joseph and said, "Madelyn is weak. Mr. Herman, thank you for taking care of her!"

Joseph understood the implied message in Benjamin's words.

He smiled and replied, "Mr. Clark, rest assured. This is within my responsibilities!"

Not pleased with the response, Benjamin looked deeply at Madelyn.

Joseph got into the car.

After the car drove a considerable distance, Joseph couldn't help but ask, "Are you planning to

reconcile with him?"

Madelyn wanted to say no.

But she understood Joseph's feelings and didn't want to hold him back, so she gave a vague "maybe"

in response.

Joseph smiled slightly.

He was a gentle and understanding man.

...

Inside the Clarks' mansion, Francis was still young and spent most of his time sleeping, being carried

to the nursery by the nanny.

Benjamin played with Everest, building blocks together.

Alexander stood nearby and couldn't help but speak after a while, "Doesn't it make you uncomfortable

seeing them together like that?"

Benjamin didn't even lift his head, his voice faint, "It's just a business trip. Nothing more than that!"

Alexander said, "I don't believe you're not jealous!"

In the afternoon, Everest needed to take a nap.

She crawled into Benjamin's bedroom and nestled on her father's body, small and soft.

Her hair was fluffy and adorable.

Benjamin stroked her little head, soothing her to sleep.

Around two o'clock, he got up and went downstairs.

Alexander was drinking coffee and saw his son holding the car keys. He muttered, "Where are you

going at this hour?"

Benjamin paused and replied, "To the hospital!"

He straightened his shirt collar and said, with an air of dignity, "I recently consulted with an expert, and

after treatment, it seems that I'm starting to remember some things!"

Alexander widened his eyes and secretly wondered if Ben had regained his memories.

But looking at his demeanor, he understood what was going on and coldly snorted, "You must be

desperate! How can you come up with such a terrible idea!"

...

On that same day, Madelyn arrived in the south.

Perhaps due to the change in environment, Madelyn developed a fever at night. When Everest video-

called her, she seemed a bit distracted.

Everest was young.

She quickly ran back and brought out a stethoscope.

She wanted to diagnose and treat Madelyn.

Madelyn looked at that little brown head and felt her heart soften. She missed her a lot.

She even regretted going on the business trip.

Benjamin took the phone and looked at Madelyn lying on the white bed in the hotel. Her face had an

abnormal flush, clearly indicating that she was sick.

He murmured, "Why does a woman have to push herself so hard?"

Madelyn didn't need to put up a front with Everest not around.

She half-closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly. "Benjamin, your words are

discriminatory against women!"

Benjamin fell silent for a moment.

His voice became low and husky. "Madelyn, I'm worried about you! I left Everest Group for you, not

because I want you to become a powerful woman, but because I want you to have the means to live

and settle down."

Madelyn was stunned.

This was the second time he spoke in ambiguous terms.

It made her feel like the former Ben had returned!

She closed her eyes, her breathing becoming more intense, and her face reddened even more.

At that moment, there was a knock on her door on her end, and she could faintly hear Joseph's voice,

"Ms. Green, I bought medicine for you."

Madelyn seemed to awaken from a daze, whispering, "I need to hang up first!"

The phone screen turned dark.

Benjamin's face turned dark, too. How could Joseph enter her hotel room? Where was her secretary?

Did it have to be him, a rough man, taking care of Madelyn?

He felt that he had to go!

Besides, Madelyn seemed seriously ill.

Benjamin gently touched Everest's head and said, "Daddy is going to find Mommy. Be a good girl and

listen to Grandpa!"

Everest picked up the stethoscope.

She generously said, "Take this with you to help Mommy get better!"

She was absolutely adorable. Benjamin held the little one in his arms and gently kissed her, saying,

"Daddy will not only cure Mommy's illness but also bring her back."

Everest clung to his neck and made a sound of agreement.

Benjamin carried her into Alexander's room and asked them to take care of Everest while he contacted

Paisley to arrange a private jet. Alexander took care of his granddaughter while teasing his son,

"Benjamin, are you going after your ex-wife? What a grand gesture you make!"

Benjamin whispered, "Madelyn is having trouble adapting and has a fever."

Alexander also felt sorry for her, saying, "Then go quickly! Your mother and I will take care of Everest

and Francis!"

*

It was three in the morning. Madelyn took her medicine and felt weak, falling into an exhausted sleep.

The door to her room was knocked on repeatedly. She didn't have the strength to open it, but the

annoying knocking continued. In the end, she had to drag herself, swaying on her two legs, to the door.

She thought it was Joseph, so naturally said, "Joe, I'm fine!"

Upon hearing Joe, Benjamin squinted his eyes. He quickly assessed her condition.

She was wearing a loosely hanging white bathrobe, revealing a hint of her figure if noticed closely.

Was she meeting Joseph like this late at night?

Benjamin felt a surge of anger, but the person in front of him was so weak, as if she would collapse at

the slightest touch.

He reached out, stopped her, lifted her and headed towards the bed.

Madelyn regained some clarity and recognized him.

Her body sank into the soft bedding, and Benjamin didn't leave. He held her with one arm while

removing his jacket with the other, touching his forehead against hers. "You have such a high fever!"

"Don't bother!" Madelyn turned away.

In fact, she knew deep down that it wasn't just due to the unfamiliar environment.

It was also because of the previous night when he had pinned her down on the piano and had his way

with her. She had caught a chill from that encounter.

The lighting in the room was dim.

It was truly unbearable for a divorced couple to be in such close proximity. Madelyn pushed him away

and croaked, "Why are you here?"

Benjamin gently moved aside.

He grabbed his phone and dialed a number, saying, "I'm worried about you being so feverish!"

He was straightforward and unapologetic.

Madelyn was truly uncomfortable and closed her eyes.

Benjamin made the call, saying, "It's me, Benjamin! My... my wife is feeling unwell due to the change in

environment. Could you please come over?"

He exchanged a few pleasantries before hanging up.

Looking at Madelyn again, she had her eyes open, staring at him.

Perhaps due to her illness, her eyes were watery and tinged with a faint redness.

Benjamin's heart softened.

He sat beside her, playing with her chestnut-colored hair, with a hint of teasing in his voice, as if he

were bullying a little girl. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

Madelyn gently closed her eyes and murmured, "It's just that I feel like even if you've lost your

memories, your way of interacting with people is still the same."

Benjamin's gaze deepened.

He got up to pour her a glass of warm water and casually said, "Do you often reminisce about the

past?"

Madelyn didn't deny it.

Benjamin helped her up and let her lean against his shoulder, feeding her water.

She struggled a bit, and he lightly patted her buttocks, saying, "What are you trying to prove? When I

rescued you from the kidnappers, you had a concussion and were much more obedient back then!"

"Madelyn, is it because you're getting older that you're not as obedient anymore?"

Madelyn was stunned.

Kidnappers?

That was something from several years ago when they had just met.

Did he regain his memories?

She looked pale and trembling, staring at him, and the word escaped her lips, "Ben?"

She wondered if she was delirious.

Otherwise, how could she feel that he had regained his memories?

Benjamin gently caressed her face and whispered, "It's me."

Madelyn closed her eyes.

She cried, tears rolling down her cheeks, but she made no sound, silently shedding tears.

She thought, if this was a dream, let her dream last longer.

Benjamin tucked her back into the blankets and held her through the covers, resting his chin on her

forehead. "Don't cry, Madelyn. It's me."

Madelyn's slender arms wrapped around his neck.

She continued to cry silently, like a delicate girl. Benjamin couldn't help himself. His warm palm slipped

under the covers, caressing her soft body and making her comfortable.

Madelyn fell ill.

She could feel it, but the sensation was not intense.

Benjamin hesitated momentarily before withdrawing his hand, but she grabbed it, her voice trembling

as she said, "Ben, don't leave."

He tightened his grip around her slender waist and leaned in to kiss her.

The kiss was passionate and intense.

Even though he knew he was despicable and shameless, he couldn't care less. She was so vulnerable

and so uninhibited. He couldn't help himself from exploring every inch of her body with his hands, as if

his life depended on it.

All their previous encounters before he left didn't even come close to the ecstasy of this moment - the

entanglement of a man and a woman's bodies.

The doctor arrived, lightly knocking on the door.

Benjamin propped himself up and looked at the person beneath him. She lay there with her eyes gently

closed as if she were sleeping!

Benjamin's Adam's apple bobbed up and down.

Just now, he almost took Madelyn, yet she was still ill.

He straightened out her clothes and opened the door for the doctor.

The doctor had some familiarity with Benjamin and quickly prescribed medicine for Madelyn, even

administering an IV drip. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Finally, the doctor glanced at the disheveled bedsheets and softly instructed, "Don't engage in intimate

activities for the next three days! After all, she is too weak!"

Even someone as shameless as Benjamin couldn't help but blush.

The doctor left quickly.

Benjamin closed the door and turned around.

Madelyn was asleep.

She lay there quietly as if the unfinished passion from earlier was nothing but an illusion.

Benjamin's body was not satisfied.

But his heart was surprisingly calm.

He walked over and gently caressed her smooth cheeks, finally landing on her slightly dry lips,

murmuring, "Good girl! I want to hold you in my hand when you listen to me."

He found it difficult to define his feelings for Madelyn.

He wanted to let her go, but he couldn't.

Ultimately, he used such an unconventional method to lure her back to his side.
