When Tracey was young, she often blamed Ben, for not protecting her mother well, and for always being indecisive.
As she grew older, she gradually understood that although he did many things inappropriately, he was more likely to be confused by Carmen.
If he knew all the truth someday, probably he would suffer a lot, it may be the biggest revenge for him.
Tracey shook her head gently. "Dad, it's all over. I don't blame you anymore."
"I will make up for you in the future." The more Ben looked at Tracey's face, the more emotional he became.
"Dad, I'm fine. I just want to ask about it. It's getting late. Go and take a rest early."
"Okay, take care, Tracey. I'm going to sleep too." Ben got up and left gracefully. Compared with Edgar's fat figure, Ben was more attractive among the middle-aged men.
"Dad..."
"Anything else?" Ben turned around.
"Well... I think my Carmen is a little strange. You should pay more attention to her." Tracey was not being too straight.
"I see." He already saw Carmen's unnatural look without Tracey's reminder, especially when and where with Edgar's presence.
When he came back just now, he felt the whole room was weird. Ben had long been suspicious.
When he returned to the room, Carmen was taking a shower. He looked around but found nothing. When he was sitting on the bed and about to get changed, he touched something.
He opened the quilt. A button! It was a button on the man's shirt. Ben was not wearing this kind of shirt recently.
Thinking of this, together with Carmen's flustered and messy look just now, Ben's anger was rapidly ignited. Obviously, who else was in this house except for him?
He tried his best to suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart and told himself that the button might belong to Leo. He didn't want to think too far.
"You're back. What did Tracey tell you?" Carmen was wiping her hair and walking out of the bathroom. Seeing that she was wearing sexy pajamas, Ben couldn't help thinking this matter.
"Nothing, she only mentioned a few things in her childhood. By the way, you went to the company to pick me up today. Why you were on the fifth floor? My office is on the sixth floor." Ben also felt something wrong this afternoon when recalling it.
When Carmen appeared, her face was ruddy, while at the moment she saw Ben, she was obviously in panic.
Just now, Tracey also reminded to pay attention to Carmen. Did she know something? When Ben linked all the things together, he just could not stop his thoughts.
"Oh, that's because I didn't take the elevator, but climbed up the stairs. What's wrong?" Carmen pretended that nothing had happened.
"Nothing, I'm going to take a shower." Ben pinched the button and took his pajamas to the bathroom.
Carmen was a delicate person. If she could ride, she would never walk. If she could take the elevator, she would never use the stairs. He had known Carmen for twenty years and she had always been like this.
She didn't come from a decent family, but she tried her best to pretend to act like a real rich lady. She cared about these details all the time.
In the afternoon, she said that she was shopping nearby. No matter did she buy something or not, If she really went shopping, she should be very tired after long shopping in high heels. How could she climb the stairs?!
She was lying! The fifth floor was where Edgar's office located, and she came from the direction of his office!
