Chapter 30 Benjamin's Decision
Madelyn felt her heartbeat quicken.
She caressed her screen with her slender fingers. But after hesitating for a long while, she still decided not to send him a message right away. And she sent him a message half an hour later.
[Madelyn] I'm sorry, Mr. Clark. I fell asleep.
On the other side...
Holding a goblet of wine, Benjamin chuckled when he saw Madelyn's message.
'The reserved Madelyn is so cute.' He thought to himself.
He didn't reply to the message and just slowly sipped the wine in the goblet.
Benjamin didn't show up before Madelyn in the next few days. But he would send a message to Madelyn from time to time. Sometimes it would be a photo, and sometimes it would be one or two sentences that were said in a lazy yet enchanting mature tone.
Madelyn wouldn't reply to his messages every time.
But both of them were clear about the chemistry between them.
Early in the morning of today, Madelyn received a call from Benjamin when she was on the way to work.
After hesitating for a while, she answered the call and greeted, "Mr. Clark."
Sitting in the car, Benjamin had a document on his knees. It was Samuel's case.
Benjamin suddenly recalled when he asked Owen for the document, the latter smiled meaningfully and said, "Benjamin, why did you change your mind? Was it because of Ms. Green? I think she's a good girl. My son David likes her very much..."
At that time, Benjamin only smiled blandly and asked Owen not to tell Madelyn about this.
He told him that he still needed to consider it.
Right now, Benjamin softly flipped through the document while saying to Madelyn who was at the other end of the line, "I need to go out on a trip for a week. Let's meet when I come back. I want to tell you something."
Madelyn didn't know what he wanted to say, but she knew that it would only benefit her if she could maintain a good relationship with Benjamin.
She replied an "ok" in a soft voice.
Benjamin suddenly felt his heart soften. He lowered his voice as if he was murmuring to his lover, "Why are you so obedient and soft? Don't you know that men would bully you if they see you being like this?"
