Madelyn slightly curled up her lips and replied with a question, "What do you want me to ask about?"
Her tone sounded somehow teasing when she asked this.
Benjamin fixed his eyes on her smile. He was gradually lost at it as she seldom smiled before him.
Not to mention this was a very relaxing smile!
He didn't probe into this question and just leaned back in the chair and tilted his head to look at her. He
explained in a husky voice, "I took over her case before. I didn't come to see her this time."
Madelyn replied with a grunt.
Benjamin was still staring at her as if he was waiting for something. However, he didn't get anything.
He couldn't tell how he expected her to react.
To get jealous? Or to quarrel with him?
It seemed like either reaction would be better than showing no interest in this.
Benjamin was in a bad mood again. He got upset not only because of his grandmother's death but also
because of Madelyn's indifference. But he told himself inwardly
"As a man, you must be patient!"
He wanted to start a new relationship with her, so naturally, he was more thoughtful than before.
The master bedroom of the villa was equipped with a dependent cloakroom for Madelyn. And Benjamin
also prepared some clothes for changing for her, all of which were from some niche brands that she
favored. Some of the clothes were even the same as those in her wardrobe.
As she liked to work at home, he also arranged a study for her.
Madelyn could feel her thoughtfulness.
Although she didn't reply to it, she was willing to stay peacefully with him. Therefore, when he was in a
bad mood, she would somehow show him more tolerance. For example, she made a concession when
he insisted on taking her to the audio-visual room to watch a movie after dinner.
Madelyn closed her document.
When she stood up, Benjamin naturally grasped her hand. The gentle touch seemed to be more
intoxicating than all of the memories of their intimate moments.
In Madelyn's memory, he seldom acted so gently.
He preferred to vent his desire in bed.
Madelyn was dumbfounded.
She couldn't help but look up at him. Benjamin slightly pulled her over and gently held her shoulder,
saying, "I played a horror movie and closed the lights. You will be scared later."
Madelyn replied with a smile, "Really? Is it so horrifying?"
Benjamin loved to see her smiling.
He stopped in his track, gently brushed her tender cheek, and said in a husky voice, "You look so
beautiful when you smile."
Madelyn replied with unease, "Aren't we going to watch a movie?"
Benjamin smiled and held her hand again, leading her downstairs.
Although it was just a household audio-visual room, it was a big one with an area of about 100 square
meters. Before the curved giant screen was a set of reclining sofas.
With the dim light, he led her to the sofas.
What he played was a classical old movie. Although it was tagged as a horror movie, it was in fact a
romance movie in a horror movie's clothing.
Benjamin enjoyed the movie very much,
Madelyn tilted her head to look at him.
It was dark in the room and they couldn't see each other clearly. But Benjamin sensed it as soon as
Madelyn turned her head.
"What's the matter?"
He held her shoulder and gently caressed her index finger.
Madelyn became stiff all over because of this action.
He chuckled in the dark and asked, "Are you scared?"
Madelyn quickly denied, "Nah."
Benjamin chuckled again and gently pulled her into his arms. He touched her cheek and asked, "Is the
movie interesting for you?"
"Not bad."
Benjamin didn't raise any other questions. He lowered his head and began to kiss her.
Madelyn was a bit stunned. She slightly tightened her hands that were grasping his arms, but in the © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
end, she still didn't push him away.
The movie happened to be playing the flirting scene between the female and male leads and moans
could be heard from time to time. It was a perfect vibe and Benjamin was very lustful. He whispered
into her ear, "May I?"
Madelyn rested her head on his shoulder.
Her expression was way too calm under the dim light, but she didn't want Benjamin to see it.
She replied in a low voice, "Not in this place."
Benjamin stuck his fingers into her hair and stroked her long hair gently.
He was very clear about if she was turned on or not.
He blurted out, "You don't like this place? Really? It's very dark here and I think you'll like it. After all, we
can't see each other."
The air seemed to freeze.
Benjamin thought to himself, "Maybe we should give each other some more time. After all, what I want
is the rest of her life."
However, she was always indifferent to her, which inevitably made him agitated.
Everything happened so naturally.
Madelyn didn't refuse him anymore, but nor did she respond to his passion. She would only moan
softly when he sometimes gave her excessive pleasure.
But the subtle moans seemed to give Benjamin a shot of excitement.
He lost his self-control.
After the sex in the audio-visual room, he carried her back into the master bedroom, wanting to see her
face under the lights.
Madelyn hooked his neck and said, "Benjamin, turn off the lights."
But he still appreciated her under the lights.
Her skin was ivory and every inch of her body was perfect. The tiny blue vein at the end of her eyebrow
was alluring him to kiss it again and again. Planting a kiss on it again, he said lustfully, "Call me Ben."
Madelyn looked into his eyes.
She inevitably remembered that she once called him "Ben" during their passionate sex before their
breakup. They had been in love for so long, but she had only called him "Ben" once.
But this time, she didn't want to call him so intimately.
Ben... It was too intimate.
Madelyn remained silent for a long while.
It was so long that their sweat turned cold and a hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes.
Madelyn reached out to caress his eyebrows and moved her red lips, saying, "Benjamin, isn't this good
for us?"
They wouldn't quarrel because she didn't have hope in him.
Just like this time, although she knew that he had gone abroad, she didn't feel sad at all. She didn't
care if he had come to see Elanor or talk about the past with her.
After those sufferings, Madelyn just wanted to love herself for the rest of her life.
In the end, they didn't continue to have sex.
Benjamin was not satisfied with such a relationship. He desperately wanted Madelyn to respond to him.
At least he should know that she still cared about him. That he still had a position in her heart.
Madelyn gave him kindness, but she didn't give him a chance for redemption.
He got down off her, turned to a side, and panted lowly.
Madelyn knew he was unhappy, but she didn't want to comfort him with gentleness.
She got out of bed and walked into the bathroom for a shower.
But Benjamin went in when she was showering. In the mist, he fixed his gaze on her meaningfully.
Madelyn was very willing to talk with him.
She wrapped her body in a bath towel and said in a low voice, "Benjamin, you're not only a successful
lawyer but also a shrewd businessman. You should know that it's a wise choice to stop loss in time.
Look, you've been wanting me and now I'm right before you. But you're not happy at all... Benjamin, if
our relationship makes you feel uncomfortable or unhappy, why don't you end it?"
She didn't want to deceive him.
At least so far, she didn't plan to spend the rest of her life with him.
But she hadn't thought of retaliating against him either.
They should have a decent separation.
Madelyn looked at him with a smile and said in a soft voice, "Benjamin, I can't give you what you want."
He once said this to her, and now she returned his words to him.
Her voice was so soft but the words she said hit his heart like a hammer, bringing her great pain,
Benjamin slowly closed his eyes.
He said in a low, husky voice, "Madelyn, since you're still willing to tell me this, it means you still care
about me."
Madelyn didn't reply because she was also in pain now.
