Chapter 120 Sister-in-Law, Happiness Depended on Your Own Efforts!
Benjamin looked through the message.
Even as the person involved, he couldn't explain it. And he was indeed not innocent.
Recently, Eleanor had been chasing after him.
He did not respond.
But after all, that woman was his ex-lover. Everyone knew what it meant for a woman to chase after a man all day long!
For Benjamin, this was a little interesting.
But he had no intention of getting back together with her, and certainly didn't want to be the other man.
Madelyn didn't ask, and he had no intention of explaining.
Madelyn happened to bring out their food, with Benjamin still holding her phone.
The atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous.
Finally, Madelyn spoke first, "Vivian doesn't mean anything else, don't make things difficult for her."
Benjamin put down the phone.
He snorted, half-smiling and half-sneering, "You are quite good at worrying about others, why don't you worry about yourself?"
Madelyn asked in response, "Benjamin, do you want me to care or not?"
Benjamin's breathing became more intense.
He couldn't answer!
Madelyn knew that she could not find the right answer, so she smiled wryly, "Either way, I can pretend for you!"
The atmosphere was really oppressive, so she changed the topic, "You eat first, and I'll go take a shower!"
After taking only two steps, her arm was tightly grabbed.
She turned around...
Benjamin frowned.
He wasn't in the mood to eat at all, but he held onto Madelyn's arm tightly, not knowing what he wanted to hold onto...
He didn't regret it either.
Madelyn wanted something from him that he didn't want to give or couldn't give, because he didn't want to get married!
Was he heartbroken?
Not necessarily!
He just wasn't used to this kind of Madelyn, this Madelyn was a bit unfamiliar to him.
She seemed indifferent, as if nothing mattered.
Benjamin had come back early tonight because he wanted to have sex with her, but looking at Madelyn's lackluster expression, he felt even more bored.
Perhaps he would feel even worse after making love.
...
Madelyn and Benjamin were in this ambiguous state.
He didn't let her go, but he also didn't coax her. He didn't come back on time to do that with her every day.
Madelyn didn't care, but Camila couldn't help but feel worried.
After a few days.
Camila called Madelyn to go shopping.
Madelyn wondered, "Camila was always thrifty, and now she takes the initiative to buy clothes. Most likely, it was because she wanted to talk about Benjamin's situation."
Sure enough, Camila was carrying her bank card and accompanying Madelyn for shopping. She kept buying things for Madelyn, saying that girls should always dress beautifully. Madelyn picked a few items with her help.
While having coffee, Madelyn lightly touched Camila's hand. "I have enough clothes, there's no need to waste too much money."
Camila glanced at her.
Then, Camila lowered her voice, "What's going on between you and Benjamin? How come he suddenly has an ex-girlfriend who is so beautiful and keeps chasing after him?"
Madelyn smiled faintly. She drank her coffee and said, "This is their business, Camila. I shouldn't interfere."
Camila felt sorry for her. She muttered, "When he pursued you, he drove you around, stayed with you in the hospital, helped you deal with Daniel..."
Camila became upset as she spoke, "Why didn't he cherish you after he succeeded? Why did he turn the relationship into what it is now? I don't think she is better than you!""
Madelyn handed Camila a tissue. Camila wiped away her tears and continued, "Don't blame me for being nosy! I had so much hope that Benjamin would cherish you."
