Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer (Benjamin and Madelyn) novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248 You Used to Call Me Uncle Ryan

Kenneth stared at Eloise.

She had changed so much, so much...

Once radiant like a wealthy flower, she was now much slimmer, and her dress no longer had the delicate colors of the past, but leaned towards a mature charm.

She had transformed from a girl into a woman.

In that instant, Kenneth knew that he still longed for her.

He stared intently at her face and whispered, "Long time no see, Eloise."

Eloise's emotions were out of control.

Her voice choked, and she mustered all her strength to say, "Mr. Ryan, it has been a long time."

They exchanged glances.

Madelyn found it difficult to be caught in the middle. She picked up little Everest, had the driver take the reliable nanny to send her to kindergarten, and little Everest obediently kissed her and said, "Goodbye, Mommy!"

Madelyn also gave her a kiss and said, "I'll come pick you up tonight!"

Everest got down from her, held the nanny's hand, and obediently went to school.

Madelyn turned around and cleared her throat, saying, "I'll make some floral tea!"

Eloise became somewhat dependent and held onto her, saying, "Sister-in-law!"

Madelyn smiled and said, "You two talk."

...

Kenneth looked at Eloise and whispered, "Come in!"

Eloise lowered her head and went in, but as soon as she entered, he grabbed her wrist and dragged her into the bathroom.

The bathroom door closed, creating a small space.

And her back was pressed against the wall.

Kenneth propped one arm above her head, trapping her with his body. There was a faint tobacco scent emanating from him, which made her feel somewhat dizzy...

For a long time, no one spoke.

After a while, Eloise trembled and said in a soft voice, "Let me go!"

Kenneth stared at her and lowered his voice, "I waited for you all night last night!"

She suddenly looked at him.

In those eyes, tears filled every corner, ready to fall with the slightest blink.

So she dared not blink.

She didn't want to cry in front of him. After they separated, she had endured so much hardship. What did it matter if she cried in front of him now?

Kenneth was also struggling.

He glanced towards the direction of the door and then shifted his gaze to her face, softly asking, "Why didn't you come home for two years?"

Eloise smiled faintly, "What does it have to do with Mr. Ryan? If I don't come home, it must be because I'm fooling around outside... What right do you have to ask?"

Fooling around...

Kenneth's gaze became unfathomable.

He reached out and lightly touched her face, causing her entire body to tremble... Even her teeth were chattering.

"So unwilling to let me touch you? Have you found a boyfriend?"

Eloise's face turned pale.

She stared at his eyes and whispered a word through her clenched teeth, "Yes!"

In that moment, darkness clouded Kenneth's eyes.

He loosened his grip on her.

Eloise tried her best to steady herself and asked, "Can you let go of me now? Mr. Ryan, as a charming and elegant man like you, I'm sure you won't be short of company!"

"Mr. Ryan? Eloise... You used to call me Uncle Ryan!"

"That was when I was young and ignorant!"

...

Eloise placed her hand against his chest and pushed him away little by little, saying, "My sister-in-law is coming over. Let go of me. Let us have a bit of dignity in parting."

Kenneth released his hold on her.

She took hold of the doorknob, gritted her teeth, and as she opened the door, she heard his hoarse voice from behind, "Eloise, do you really want to part ways with me like this? We can restore our previous relationship. You can call me Uncle Ryan, and I will take care of you!"

He felt sorry to her.

He thought that if she found a good man, he would bless her.

He would give her anything she wanted!

Eloise tilted her head slightly and restrained herself before whispering, "No need! I don't need it!"

She could never forget what happened back then.

She secretly went to Vadiff to give him a surprise but was kidnapped.

In the dark room, she spent 36 hours alone, without water to drink, unable even to use the bathroom, tied to a chair like that... The kidnappers said they wanted the chip in his hands.

She was very scared.

But she thought he would do anything to save her!

But on the phone, Kenneth's voice was calm and composed, "Sorry, I don't know her!"

Later, she was rescued...

She thought he had come and she was still his sweetheart, but when she walked out of the dilapidated shack, what awaited her was not his embrace but a beautiful scene of him standing side by side with another woman.

It turned out she wasn't the only one who was kidnapped.

He claimed not to know her, left her to fend for herself, but used the chip to save other women.

She saw him embracing that person, seeing his tenderness.

Only later did she find out that she was one of his beloved confidantes!

In Vadiff, every woman who adores Mr. Ryan is more charming than Eloise, more gentle and considerate.

She stood before him looking miserable...

That word "Uncle Ryan" could never be uttered again.

He had someone settle her in, and only late at night did he enter her room. The first thing she said when she saw him was, "Eloise, let's end this here!"

She looked up and still asked... why!

Kenneth sat on the couch, quietly watching her for a long time before uttering, "We're not compatible!"

Tears welled up in her eyes.

She didn't let him stay.

She choked and said softly, "Okay! Goodbye, Uncle Ryan!"

That was the last time she called him Uncle Ryan, and also the last time she saw him.

Kenneth couldn't bear it.

He wanted to give this innocent girl who loved him wholeheartedly a final hug, but she dodged him, restraining her voice, "I'll leave... tomorrow morning!"

Kenneth hesitated, staring at her for a while, and then left.
