Gorgeous Couple’s Sweet Love novel Chapter 10

My mind was in a state of chaos, and I shouldn't make any decision right now. I decided to wait until the next day.

"Heh, okay." Benjamin didn't seem to mind. He then reminded me flatly, "Emma, don't forget that you're the one who needs me."

He was right. I was the one who needed him, but I was still taking my time to consider his offer.

"Rest early," Benjamin said and left. As I couldn't sleep at all, I looked around the room.

The walls and furniture were of cool colours, and there was a noble vibe to the room. As I turned to look at Benjamin's navy suit jacket, there was a surge of warmth in my heart.

I held it in my arms and inhaled his scent. He smelled faintly like mint, and it was a fresh and crisp aroma.

It reminded me of the blue sky, clearing my mind off all the troubles that had been plaguing me.

My cell phone rang, jolting me out of my reverie. I grabbed it and when I saw the caller display, my heart sank.

Joel's number kept jumping onto the screen, I hesitated for a long time and finally picked up and asked: "For Christ's sake, what's with the hurry?"

"Emma, did anything happen to you?" Joel's tone was slightly concerned, and he seemed to know what I was going to say, so before I said anything, he continued: "Don't lie to me and say nothing happened, I was at your place and found the..."

It was impossible for Joel to find the gestational sac because I wrapped it in a paper towel and threw it in the trash can, and I still haven't figured out how Benjamin knew that I had a miscarriage?

He even took me to get the curettage.

I bit my lip and said, "Really, I'm really fine."

Although my grandfather told him to take care of me, I didn't want to trouble him nor his family.

"There are signs of fighting in your apartment, and there are broken glasses, but if you don't want to tell me, I won't force you."

Turned out he just found these!

I said, "Thank you, Joel."

"No matter what happened between you and Steve, you can tell us, but if you choose to bear it yourself, I won't stop you." Joel paused and said indifferently, "But you have to consider the consequences."

After I hung up the phone, I was still thinking about Joel's words. He was the only man of the same generation in the Shears family, and he took good care of me.

In fact, I only learned of the existence of the Shears family in the year when 01' Shears passed away, and that's how I got to know about the family.
