Ben was a gentleman. He never discriminated against women, and never scolded anyone.
But a scolding of "Cheap" fully represented Ben's disappointment and disgust to Carmen.
Carmen shook her head with tears in her eyes. "Honey, it’s not like this. You misunderstood."
Maybe Ben's heart would soften if he only saw Carmen was embarrassingly trapped in the rain, but he witnessed these two people hugged each other, that would be different, he had felt like swallowed a fly.
Carmen had just been kicked out of the Xia family then soon got together with Edgar. It was difficult to imagine how many times they had secretly contacted over the years, except for the last time she was caught in Xia's residence.
"Don't call me honey. We have never married. You don't deserve this appellation. Carmen, be careful." Ben gave her a cold look.
"No, don't. Honey, you came to me means that I am still in your heart. Why don't you listen to my explanation?" Carmen seized the window frame and said.
"I don't want to hear a word of you. Let go of me," Ben said coldly.
"I won't let go. I won't!"
Ben moved her fingers away from the window one by one. He coldly closed the glass and drove away without hesitation.
Carmen fell down onto the watery ground once again. "Why...? He came must be because he doesn’ t want me to leave... Why I was caught again...?" Carmen was confused.
''Honey, don't leave. Let me explain....¹' She looked at the car full of tears.
Edgar stood behind her and said, "He has gone."
"It's you. You pushed me into this situation. Are you satisfied now?" Carmen blamed Edgar for all this happened.
If he hadn't made that perverted request in his office that day, Carmen wouldn't have been discovered by Ben, and wouldn't have been in such a bad situation.
"So what? Carmen, I remember you were much crueler than I was many years ago. I came to pick you up for kindness. It seems that you don't need my help, be your rich lady, dear."
Although Edgar still had feelings for Carmen, he was never a depressed man immersed in love hurt all day long.
Carmen saw that he was going to leave too. "If you leave, I'm really alone," she muttered.
Edgar sighed when he heard this. He turned around and picked Carmen up. Carmen's eyes were red from crying.
Edgar had an apartment by the river, and no person had lived there for a long time. He would have Carmen lived in temporarily.
Carmen came out of the bathroom after finished bathing. She looked at Edgar with vigilance and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Don't worry, as long as I want women, there will be a lot of women, all young ones, not like you." Edgar's every word was like a knife stabbing Carmen's heart.
Carmen hated being commented old. Over the years, she had been trying hard to maintain her skin' s youth. "Get out." She threw a sofa pillow at Edgar.
"Don't forget that you're in my apartment now. You're getting more and more hot-tempered." The worse a woman's temper was, the more it could only prove that she was spoiled by a man.
Thinking of this, Carmen felt very sad. She probably would never meet a man who treated her kindly like Ben in the future.
She lost the mood to bicker with Edgar. She went straight back to her room and slept. Seeing Carmen slept on the bed, Edgar's heart softened more.
