Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn) novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134 A Fair Exchange

Daniel remained unmoved, his muscles tense like stone.

His gaze was piercing.

"I'm not crazy!" he stated firmly, locking his gaze onto hers. "It's all my fault! Let's start over, Madelyn. This time, I'll treat you better!"

Despite her relationship with Benjamin, he was still determined to win her back.

Madelyn was stunned.

When she finally came to her senses, Daniel had already seized her face, poised to kiss her passionately.

She turned her head away, denying him his advances.

His lips still grazed her delicate cheek, leaving a slight trace of moisture.

Madelyn fiercely pushed him away, her breaths coming in short gasps.

With a scowl, she wanted to make it crystal clear that she had no interest in his investments or compensation.

Between them, there was no need for any further connection!

Not far away, Benjamin stood smoking.

His deep gaze was fixed on them, cold as if watching an unrelated love affair unfold before him.

Madelyn's legs suddenly gave out, and she had to steady herself against the wall to avoid collapsing onto the ground.

Daniel also saw noticed Benjamin's presence.

His voice grew hoarse, "Madelyn, as soon as you say the word, I'll break off the engagement now, I'll marry you, and we'll have a few children together."

His proposal was tempting, but it wasn't what Madelyn truly desired.

The one she longed for was gazing at her with cold eyes.

She looked helplessly at Benjamin...

With that, Daniel felt an icy chill run through his body.

Before today, there might have been a glimmer of hope, but now it was clear that he had lost Madelyn forever.

It was a fierce battle between three people, but ultimately it was a world of just two.

He Daniel Campbell was merely an outsider, unable to win Madelyn's heart. She only saw Benjamin Clark!

Daniel retreated.

As he passed by Benjamin, he heard the cold voice of the naturally superior man.

"Daniel Campbell, I don't like other people touching my things!" He announced.

Daniel was stunned.

He had dealt with him for a long time but never thought he would act like this. Benjamin usually had little interest in anything, especially in women! This was the first time he showed his possessiveness!

But now, Daniel couldn't help but wonder if he had misjudged Benjamin all this time.

Perhaps, in the future, Benjamin would be willing to enter into a marriage.

All because of one person, Madelyn.

And it was Madelyn who had made him crave and desire for the sanctity of marriage.

...

Madelyn got into Benjamin's car.

She immediately smelled the alcohol on his body, realizing that he had attended a congratulatory banquet that evening, but he unexpectedly caught her "love affair".

For some reason, Madelyn didn't want to sour their relationship.

So she whispered, "The music studio is raising funds, and he asked someone to sign an intention contract with us. Actually, I didn't know it was him."

But Benjamin remained silent.

He lit a cigarette and slowly smoked it...

Once he had finished, he turned to look at her.

"Why bother explaining?" he said.

"After all, we're just in a physical relationship, aren't we?"

...

Heard that, Madelyn's eyes turned red, and she lowered her head without a word.

She had learned early on that Benjamin's temper was unpredictable, and it was never wise to argue with him.

Benjamin stared at her for a long time.

Abruptly, he announced, "I want to come over to your place!"

Madelyn was taken aback, wondering if she had correctly interpreted his intentions - did he want to go to her apartment and be intimate with her? Such aggressive behavior hinted at some kind of pent-up frustration.

Madelyn turned her head slightly and gazed out of the car window, lost in thought for a moment.

Eventually, she softly murmured, "Mmm," seemingly agreeing to his proposal.

Benjamin lightly pressed on the accelerator, the car speeding forward.

They quickly came to a halt outside Madelyn's apartment.

...

Madelyn led him inside, feeling a sense of unease.

"What can I get you to drink?" she inquired.
