Chapter 337 Tonight, Benjamin Was Especially Thoughtful (1)
This storm was calmed down by Benjamin's voluntary act of being a submissive puppy.
His intention was clear. Even if Madelyn had a mental illness, even if their relationship was troubled, he was willing to accompany her all the way.
The wind shifted, and Benjamin became an extraordinary good man.
The stocks of the Huo family and Everest Group didn't decline but instead rose. Benjamin wasn't happy. After the press conference, he locked himself in his office and repeatedly listened to Madelyn's inner monologue. She said...
"My husband lost five years of memories with us."
"I know he likes me! But maybe because of too many disappointments, I dare not easily accept his kindness. I always feel that when I let go of my guard and love him again, misfortune and betrayal will fall upon me once more."
"He helped a woman I disliked, and I forgave her generously..."
...
Benjamin listened to it repeatedly many times.
He remembered that night when he helped Charlotte and saw Eleanor for the last time.
He bid farewell to the past.
He thought that from then on, there would be no barriers between him and Madelyn.
But he didn't know that Madelyn's generosity was only a compromise, tormenting herself. They lived together, but she had never been happy. Benjamin gently closed his eyes, and there were tears in the corners.
At this moment, the phone on his desk rang. He looked at it.
It was from the clinic.
He answered, and the director personally apologized to him: "Mr. Clark, I'm sorry, due to internal reasons, there was a privacy breach concerning Mrs. Clark. We have already fired that employee..."
Benjamin's tone was indifferent: "I will sue her."
After hanging up the phone, he looked at the time. It was almost time for Everest to finish school.
He personally drove and picked up Everest.
At the kindergarten gate, Everest waved goodbye reluctantly to Edward and was hugged into the golden Bentley Continental GT by her father.
Benjamin buckled her seatbelt.
Everest suddenly hugged her father's neck and whispered, "Today, the other kids said that Edward's dad has a mistress. Daddy, what is a mistress?"
Benjamin was somewhat surprised.
He patted Everest's little head, "You'll understand when you grow up."
With her tea-colored curls fluttering, Everest blinked her eyes, "Daddy, do you have a mistress?"
Benjamin lightly tapped her head.
Seeing that Dad was not happy, Everest didn't ask any more questions and obediently sat in the back seat.
Benjamin promised to buy baby food for Francis, so he drove to a well-known mother and baby store in the city center. He got out of the car with Everest and carefully picked suitable items for Francis.
Everest wore a beautiful fluffy skirt and followed suitably.
She surprisingly knew exactly what Francis liked and gave opinions quite well.
Benjamin looked at her fair and tender face and suddenly bent down to lift Everest up and gave her a kiss.
Amidst the bustling crowd, Everest felt a little embarrassed and held onto his neck, "Daddy, what are you doing?"
Benjamin pretended to continue selecting items and casually asked, "Everest, has Daddy ever told you that he really likes you?"
Everest tilted her little head, "I've heard it countless times!"
She was tired of hearing it, not at all fresh!
She thought for a moment and added, "Daddy's most favorite is still Mommy!"
Then it's her, and then Francis!
Everest stayed in her father's arms, feeling a bit spoiled. She hugged her father's neck tightly and took the opportunity to make a request, "Daddy, wash the baby with me tonight. I saw you washing Mommy."
Benjamin picked out the items and patted her bottom.
"When you grow up, let your husband wash you!"
