Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn)

Chapter 244 Tell Me Who Is The Father?

Chapter 244 Tell Me Who Is The Father?

In the dark night, in a dilapidated house in a small alleyway,

Benjamin stared at his sister, who had been in pain for many years. He looked at her plain clothes and

then at the rundown house behind her.

His eyes began to ache, and his hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly.

After taking a deep drag of smoke, he walked inside and looked around, asking, "Where's the child?"

Eloise was taken aback and asked, "Did my sister-in-law tell you?"

Benjamin replied impatiently, "No, she didn't tell me. Did she help you hide and continue living in this

broken place?... Whose child is it?"

Up until now, he truly didn't know who the child's father was.

Eloise tried to block him from entering the room.

Benjamin stubbed out the cigarette and exhaled the last puff of smoke, saying, "Tell me."

Whoever it was, within a day, he would give that person a good beating!

Eloise stood in front of the bedroom door and pleaded softly, "I'm doing well with Emerson! Brother, I

can take care of him myself. Please don't ask anymore!"

Benjamin's eyes reddened.

He was only half a step away from her. He reached out, pulled her behind him, and entered the

bedroom himself.

The bedroom was simple, less than 10 square meters in size.

Apart from the old bed, there was only a small desk with dozens of magazines on top.

Benjamin walked over and flipped through those 18+ magazines. The covers all featured Eloise--Ms.

Green of the Clark family!

His Adam's apple bobbed a few times, and then he approached the old bed.

The child was sleeping soundly, so small.

A fair face with a short, brown hairstyle.

Those familiar eyebrows and eyes, along with that unique hair color, made Benjamin's eyes well up!

He didn't ask who the child's father was anymore because he didn't need to ask!

Benjamin suddenly turned around and glared at his own sister.

Eloise's lips trembled, and her entire face contorted. She pleaded cautiously, "Brother, don't look for

him! Please don't look for him... I'm separated from him."

Benjamin reached out and gently touched the little one.

Warm and cozy...

Benjamin paused for a moment and asked softly, "Him? Which him? Eloise, tell me!"

Eloise covered her mouth.

Deep down, Benjamin already knew whose child it was.

Suppressing his voice, Benjamin said, "When did you get involved with him? Do you know what you're

doing? He's over ten years older than you, someone with his status in his forties who doesn't get

married. He's been with so many people, how could he be interested in a little girl like you?"

Eloise felt extremely embarrassed.

She knew that she had overestimated herself!

Benjamin didn't ask any further. He took off his coat and dressed little Emerson, then gently picked him

up.

"Brother!" Eloise grabbed his arm and pleaded.

In the dim light, Benjamin's face was as calm as water. "Either you come back with me now, or I'll call

Kenneth and have him come pick you and your son up. You choose one!"

Eloise had no choice.

She packed a few clothes and left with Benjamin.

When they were going downstairs, Emerson woke up.

He looked at Benjamin drowsily, with a slightly frightened expression but no tears.

Benjamin touched his head and said very gently, "I'm your uncle! Mommy is here too!"

Emerson saw Eloise beside him.

He closed his eyes peacefully.

Seeing this, Benjamin's heart ached. When they reached the car, he carefully placed the little one in

the child seat and then looked at his sister.

Eloise silently got into the car and whispered, "Please don't tell Mom and Dad for now, okay?"

"You're still afraid, huh?"

Benjamin snorted coldly, closed the car door, and went around to the front to get in. He was really

annoyed and wanted to smoke, but he held back because of the child.

There was silence for a while, and then he gently pressed the accelerator.

After half an hour, the car slowly entered the gate of the villa.

Originally, Benjamin didn't plan to disturb Madelyn, but she already had something on her mind, and

the sound of the door opening and closing woke her up. She put on a robe and quietly got up.

Standing in the stairwell, she saw Benjamin holding Emerson, with Eloise following behind.

Madelyn was momentarily stunned.

Benjamin whispered, "Tonight, let Emerson sleep with Everest first! You talk to Eloise!"

Madelyn nodded.

She continued upstairs and opened the door for Benjamin.

Benjamin carried Emerson inside and gently placed the little one in the bed where Madelyn had been

lying...

Perhaps the bed was too soft, and little Emerson didn't wake up.

Everest, on the other hand, woke up slightly. He opened his eyes just a crack, then turned over and

hugged Emerson, holding him as if he were hugging a puppy while sleeping...

The two had similar fair faces, features, and chestnut hair.

Benjamin's heart softened.

He touched little Everest, then lightly touched Emerson, and softly said, "This child looks like his

father!"

Madelyn felt guilty.

Benjamin turned around and spoke gently, "You should have figured out whose bastard it is, right?"

He said it rudely!

Madelyn whispered, "Don't let the child hear. Let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Benjamin glared at her fiercely.

In the past, Madelyn would have been afraid of him, but now she wasn't so afraid anymore... As she

walked out of the bedroom, she had the courage to say, "You shouldn't take your anger out on me! It's

not like I did it!"

Benjamin's expression softened a bit.

He held her hand and said, "Spend some time with Eloise. I'll go to the study and smoke a cigarette."

Madelyn nodded.

In reality, they hadn't resolved their own issues yet, and they still had resentments between them, but

when faced with what happened in the family, they instinctively relied on each other.

What should they do?

Eloise called him brother and called her sister-in-law!

Madelyn led Eloise to the guest room and whispered, "Your brother is angry, don't mind it! Take a

shower first, and I'll make you a late-night snack-your favorite fried chicken."

Just as she was about to leave, Eloise held onto her tightly.

Madelyn's heart became moist.

She patted Eloise's back and whispered, "You should have come back earlier! Your brother is really

angry!"

Eloise softly called out, "Sister-in-law!"

Madelyn tidied up her hair for Eloise and said, "I'll go prepare some food. You take a shower first!

There's everything you need inside!"

Eloise murmured in agreement.

After preparing the late-night snack, Madelyn went downstairs and Eloise followed.

Eloise was wearing her own pajamas, made of cotton fabric that had almost faded in color from

washing.

Madelyn noticed it.

She didn't say anything, just trembled slightly in her voice and said, "Come and eat! It's all your favorite

dishes!"

Eloise sat down to eat.

She remained silent, no longer the chatterbox she used to be, like a printer running out of words.

Madelyn stayed by her side.

After they finished eating, tears welled up in Eloise's eyes. She said, "Sister-in-law, I'm scared! Back

then, he couldn't marry me, and now... I've almost forgotten about him."

How could she still have feelings for him?

For the past two years, she had been raising her child alone, living in such difficulty, worrying every day

about formula money and rent.

The romantic and glamorous moments they once had seemed like fleeting smoke, blown away by the

wind...

Occasionally, she would see him in the newspaper.

He was still that respectable, spirited Mr. Ryan.

And she, Eloise, was no longer the youthful and tender girl, as time had worn away all her edges...

Madelyn couldn't make any promises to her.

She softly said, "Your brother will eventually let go of his anger! But he definitely won't harm Emerson!"

Eloise nodded with tears in her eyes.

Madelyn settled her down and went to find Benjamin in the study.

Pushing open the heavy door to the study, it was dimly lit, with only a small wall lamp illuminating the

room.

Benjamin sat behind the desk, smoking. The ashtray in front of him was full of cigarette butts, a sign of

his frustration and annoyance.

Madelyn closed the door and went to open the window.

She whispered, "Why do you smoke so much? Aren't you afraid of choking?"

Benjamin quietly watched her.

Tonight was different from usual. Madelyn took the initiative and walked up to him, sitting on his lap and

gently embracing him...

Benjamin stubbed out his cigarette and leaned against her shoulder.

Just like that, they embraced each other silently for a long time before he finally spoke up softly,

"Madelyn, am I a failure? If it weren't for my insistence on going to Monatiz, your uncle and Eloise

might not have had a chance to get together. Kenneth's time in the hospital was probably a catalyst for

their relationship!"

Madelyn asked in a low voice, "Do you agree?"

Benjamin lightly pinched her slender waist and said, "Why don't you ask my parents about that? Do you

think I'm easily swayed, so you're putting in effort with me first and then planning to persuade my

parents later?"

Madelyn didn't deny it; she slowly leaned her face towards his.

Benjamin's face was very warm...

After a while, he asked softly again, "Are you speaking up for your uncle or pleading for Eloise?"

Madelyn shook her head.

She held onto his shoulder and spoke softly and tenderly, "Neither! It's for Emerson!"

Benjamin remained silent.

Madelyn was too clever; she knew what was on his mind.

Indeed, he was currently angry with Eloise and that old man. The only person he cared about was that Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

child. She casually brought up the child, effectively capturing his attention.

Madelyn cradled his handsome face and took the initiative to give him a light kiss. "Regardless of the

circumstances, let's give Emerson the utmost dignity, okay? He will definitely grow up in the Clark

family, go to school, get married, and have children."

She was so good with words, staring into his eyes. "He is also related to you by blood."

Suddenly, Benjamin chuckled softly.

He pulled her closer into his arms, pressing his forehead against hers. "But he really looks like that

idiot."

Madelyn didn't argue.

She kissed him gently, using her feminine tenderness to soften him.

Benjamin held onto her slender waist, sliding his hands up and down. His voice was low and deep,

"Madelyn, are you trying to solve this with your body? Let me tell you, even if we do it tonight, the

things I need to do after getting out of bed won't be any less!... Besides, I hope that we truly reconcile

and that our married life happens naturally because we both desire each other, not for anyone else."

Madelyn didn't tease him any further.

She lay on his shoulder, feeling the warmth of his neck, listening to his rapid heartbeat, and murmured,

"Benjamin, it seems like you have much better self-control now!"

His gaze was deep, and he disagreed with her.

"Madelyn... You're my wife, and I want to respect you! I want to make you truly comfortable and make

every moment we spend together worth remembering!"

...

Madelyn couldn't bear to listen anymore.

Wasn't he supposed to be angry? Where did all these sweet words come from?

She got up from his legs, silently tidied her sleepwear. But Benjamin pulled her back and passionately

kissed her. After kissing for a while, he whispered, "Tonight, let's sleep in the master bedroom!"

Madelyn didn't refuse.

Mainly because she knew that tonight he wouldn't be in the mood for anything else.

As she lay on the bed in the master bedroom, she quietly contemplated. The difficulties between her

and Benjamin were mostly emotional issues between the two of them, rather than involving Eloise and

her uncle too much.

Madelyn thought deeply, half-dreaming and half-awake, when she heard the sound of a car starting

downstairs.

She was startled and immediately got up and ran upstairs.

Benjamin's car had already driven away.

She quickly asked the servant, "Where did Mr. Clark go?"

The servant shook their head, indicating they didn't know.

At that moment, Eloise also rushed downstairs with a pale face. She guessed what had happened...

Madelyn said softly, "Don't worry, I'll ask Paisley."

Disturbing someone late at night was generally not good, so Madelyn spoke very politely.

Paisley readily told her, "Mr. Clark arranged a private jet to fly to Vadiff."

Madelyn thanked her with a faint smile.

She hung up the phone and looked at Eloise. "Your brother went to Vadiff."

Eloise tightly held Madelyn's hand. "Sister-in-law, I'm scared."

Madelyn was also helpless. Benjamin's phone was already turned off, so there was no way to stop him

from going to Vadiff.

She hugged Eloise and whispered, "How about... let them have a fight!"
