Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204 Rest Assured. I'm Still Pursuing Her

Benjamin clenched his phone and replied with a nod, "I'll arrive soon."

Then he put down his phone and stared at Madelyn.

Madelyn also heard the conversation. She said in a soft voice, "Hurry up to go back. And be careful when you drive."

Benjamin's Adam's apple bobbed.

In fact, he wanted her to go back with him so that his grandmother could have a look at her. However, with their current relationship, Madelyn might not be willing to go with him. Even if she did, it was not out of sincerity.

After contemplating for a while, Benjamin said in a low voice, "I may be busy in the next few days."

Madelyn didn't cold-shoulder him like she did before. She nodded in reply.

When she got out of the car, Benjamin suddenly winded down the window and called, "Madelyn..."

Standing in the night, she waved at him and urged, "Hurry up to go back."

Benjamin slowly stepped on the accelerator with his eyes still fixed on her.

It took him two hours to drive to the eastern suburbs. His grandmother, Valentina Cameron, had been living in this mansion because the air here was fresh and it was a good place for recuperation.

Probably tonight was the limit of her life and Valentina began to talk nonsense since dusk.

The nurse hurriedly called them. Alexander came over to check on his mother and concluded that she was dying. Therefore, he hurriedly called her off-springs and asked them to come to the mansion to see Valentina for the last time.

Alexander was Valentina's eldest son and Benjamin was her most outstanding grandchild. She favored Benjamin the most.

Valentina was holding her last breath because she was waiting for her dear grandson.

Benjamin rushed to Valentina's bedroom after parking his car. Other members of the Clark family stepped aside to make way for him and Alexander whispered into his mother's ear thoughtfully and softly, "Mom, Ben goes back to see you."

Valentina was on her deathbed.

But she slowly opened her eyes when she heard the footsteps. At that moment, the wrinkles on her face seemed to unfold.

Her eyes looked extremely bright and clear.

Alexander knew it was the brief revival before the end of her life. She had held up for so long as she was waiting for her dear grandson to go back so that she could tell her last words to him.

As expected, Valentina sat up.

Benjamin strode to the bed and squatted before her. He held up her skinny hand, lowered his head, and planted a kiss on it.

Valentina reached out to stroke his hair.

She favored Benjamin very much. He was good-looking and had been smarter than his peers since childhood. There was one thing that she was not dissatisfied with he refused to get married, so she couldn't have a grand-grandson.

Valentina slowly spoke with a clear mind, "I heard from your mother during the New Year that found a girlfriend who should be the best match for you, according to the fortune-teller. And she said you would take her back to visit me. Ben, why didn't you take her back and let me have a look?"

Benjamin looked up at her silver hair with gentleness.

He replied with a light smile, "She was working overtime, so I didn't ask her to come with me."

Valentina retorted with a serious expression, "You're coaxing me again. I know your temper. You must have angered her."

Benjamin was still smiling. He replied with a grunt and continued, "Yep. I've angered her and now I'm trying to get her back. Grandma, I'll take her back to visit you the other day. At that time, you must put in some good words for me."

Valentina heaved a sigh and said, "It's great."

Then she asked what kind of person the girl was.

Fearing that she couldn't hear him clearly, Benjamin leaned forward and whispered into her ear in a very gentle voice, "She's a very beautiful girl. She's very obedient at usual times, but it's hard to coax her when she's angry."
