Chapter 120 Sister-in-Law, Happiness Depended on Your Own Efforts!
Benjamin looked through the message.
Even as the person involved, he couldn't explain it. And he was indeed not innocent.
Recently, Eleanor had been chasing after him.
He did not respond.
But after all, that woman was his ex-lover. Everyone knew what it meant for a woman to chase after a man all day long!
For Benjamin, this was a little interesting.
But he had no intention of getting back together with her, and certainly didn't want to be the other man.
Madelyn didn't ask, and he had no intention of explaining.
Madelyn happened to bring out their food, with Benjamin still holding her phone.
The atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous.
Finally, Madelyn spoke first, "Vivian doesn't mean anything else, don't make things difficult for her."
Benjamin put down the phone.
He snorted, half-smiling and half-sneering, "You are quite good at worrying about others, why don't you worry about yourself?" Madelyn asked in response, "Benjamin, do you want me to care or not?"
Benjamin's breathing became more intense.
He couldn't answer!
Madelyn knew that she could not find the right answer, so she smiled wryly, "Either way, I can pretend for you!"
The atmosphere was really oppressive, so she changed the topic, "You eat first, and I'll go take a shower!"
After taking only two steps, her arm was tightly grabbed.
She turned around...
Benjamin frowned.
He wasn't in the mood to eat at all, but he held onto Madelyn's arm tightly, not knowing what he wanted to hold onto... He didn't regret it either.
Madelyn wanted something from him that he didn't want to give or couldn't give, because he didn't want to get married!
Was he heartbroken?
Not necessarily!
He just wasn't used to this kind of Madelyn, this Madelyn was a bit unfamiliar to him.
She seemed indifferent, as if nothing mattered.
Benjamin had come back early tonight because he wanted to have sex with her, but looking at Madelyn's lackluster expression, he felt even more bored. Perhaps he would feel even worse after making love.
Madelyn and Benjamin were in this ambiguous state.
He didn't let her go, but he also didn't coax her. He didn't come back on time to do that with her every day.
Madelyn didn't care, but Camila couldn't help but feel worried.
After a few days.
Camila called Madelyn to go shopping.
Madelyn wondered, "Camila was always thrifty, and now she takes the initiative to buy clothes. Most likely, it was because she wanted to talk about Benjamin's situation."
Sure enough, Camila was carrying her bank card and accompanying Madelyn for shopping. She kept buying things for Madelyn, saying that girls should always dress beautifully. Madelyn picked a few items with her help.
While having coffee, Madelyn lightly touched Camila's hand. "I have enough clothes, there's no need to waste too much money."
Camila glanced at her.
Then, Camila lowered her voice, "What's going on between you and Benjamin? How come he suddenly has an ex-girlfriend who is so beautiful and keeps chasing after him?"
Madelyn smiled faintly. She drank her coffee and said, "This is their business, Camila. I shouldn't interfere."
Camila felt sorry for her. She muttered, "When he pursued you, he drove you around, stayed with you in the hospital, helped you deal with Daniel..."
Camila became upset as she spoke, "Why didn't he cherish you after he succeeded? Why did he turn the relationship into what it is now? I don't think she is better than you!"""
Madelyn handed Camila a tissue. Camila wiped away her tears and continued, "Don't blame me for being nosy! I had so much hope that Benjamin would cherish you."
Madelyn patted her hand and comforted her softly, "He made it clear from the beginning! There's nothing to complain about. Besides, Ms. Bennett pursuit of him is her own business, and if he allows her to do so, it's his problem. Camila, I have no reason to blame them."
Perhaps Benjamin didn't think there was anything wrong!
But in Madelyn's eyes, this kind of indulgence was enough to be a decided permission!
In the future, Madelyn would definitely leave Benjamin, so why bother competing with an unrelated woman!
She told Camila that she wanted to focus on her career now. Camila was finally appeased.
She turned from crying to laughing. "It's good that you can figure it out! It's great to work on your career."
Madelyn accompanied her for a while, bought some things for her home, and then personally sent Camila back home.
When she returned to her apartment, Madelyn guessed that Benjamin wouldn't come back for dinner, so she decided to make something simple.
But just as she finished cooking, there was a knock at the door.
Madelyn was quite surprised, "Who could it be at this time?"
She looked through the door hole and found it was Eloise.
Eloise was holding several bags in her hands and put them on the foyer when she entered, saying, "Madelyn, these are all things my mom asked me to bring over to give to you." Madelyn took a look, and they were all pretty expensive things.
Two limited edition platinum bags, a diamond watch from Patek Philippe, and some accessories.
She wanted to refuse, but Eloise had already run over to the dining table and started eating without any hesitation.
Madelyn was speechless.
After finishing her food, Eloise finally found time to speak. "It's so delicious! Madelyn, can you make another batch later?" After speaking, she suddenly remembered her mission. "Madelyn, let me take you out to play!"
Madelyn cleaned up the dishes and smiled faintly, "Where are we going?"
Eloise rarely does something bad, and her cheeks look unnatural, "Let's go somewhere nice, just come with me."
She was afraid that Madelyn would disagree, deliberately saying, "You left during my birthday, so consider this making it up to me."
Madelyn quite liked her, so she agreed after thinking about it.
Eloise pushed her into the closet and personally picked out a dress and jewelry for her.
She was in a watercolor chiffon maxi dress with her very thin waist, especially beautiful and romantic.
With Madelyn's hair color, she looked like a certain female celebrity.
Eloise stared at her in a daze and murmured, "How could my brother bear to leave you..."
After speaking, she felt embarrassed and stuck out her tongue.
Madelyn wasn't angry. She grabbed her purse and paired it with nude high heels.
"Where are we going?" Eloise didn't dare say! Her mother cried every day at home but couldn't interfere with the young couple's life. So she specifically told Eloise to bring Madelyn to "catch them in the act"! Brianna instructed her like this, "Your brother is still single at his age and now the right woman left with anger because of him! Eloise, you can't ignore your brother!"
Eloise thought, "I'll handle it! I'll handle it right away!"
Eloise found Madelyn after asking David about it...
At this time, Madelyn asked her, and she was secretive. "It's just a good place!"
Eloise drove over and let Madelyn sit in her car. Madelyn couldn't resist her enthusiasm.
Half an hour later, the red sports car stopped in front of the Orchid Club.
The doorman recognized Eloise and respectfully called out "Ms. Clark," but glanced at Madelyn. She was pretty and he hadn't seen her before! Of course, Eloise saw it. She was quite proud.
My sister-in-law!
Madelyn followed her and went up to the third-floor VIP box level while asking, "Did you invite other friends?"
Eloise stopped at the door of Room 308.
She opened the door and invited Madelyn in. She was extremely nervous, "Um, there are quite a few friends."
Madelyn wasn't prepared and went in like this.
When she adapted to the light in the room, she was stunned. She recognized almost all the people in the room. Benjamin, David's circle of friends, and of course Eleanor... Madelyn turned her head and looked at Eloise.
Eloise ran away quickly...
"Sister-in-law! Happiness depends on your own efforts!"
