Pampered By My Mr. Lawyer novel Chapter 190

Chapter 190 Old Sweetheart?

A champagne-colored BMW slowly drove into the neighborhood where Camila lived.

Camila had prepared dinner in advance and greeted them with a smile when they returned together. "I'll cook another dish real quick."

Madelyn handed her a box of chocolate.

Camila loved eating them.

Camila accepted it and glanced at Nicolas. He looked so spirited and energetic.

Nicolas was particularly well-behaved in front of Camila. He addressed her as "Mrs. Logan" and even offered to help in the kitchen. Camila couldn't bear to let him, so she smiled and told him to take a shower first.

Nicolas immediately picked up his luggage and went into the small room. His skilled manner made Madelyn suspect that Nicolas might be a relative from Camila's side of the family.

Camila finished cooking, and Nicolas came out of the room still wet.

He looked good in anything, especially with his long legs.

He sat next to Camila, picking up food for her and serving her rice, just like a loving son. Madelyn felt some aversion toward certain aspects of him, but she couldn't deny that he knew how to make Camila happy. Seeing Camila's joy, Madelyn couldn't help but feel happy too.

While they were having dinner, the doorbell rang.

"I'll go and answer the door," Nicolas volunteered.

Camila whispered softly, "This boy is really good, enthusiastic and polite." Madelyn smiled.

On the other side, Nicolas opened the door to find a middle-aged refined man and an old lady outside.

"Who are you looking for?"

William came with his mother and wife. When he saw the person who opened the door, he was momentarily stunned.

Did he come to the wrong place?

No, he didn't!

He asked politely, "Is Madelyn home?" Hearing his voice, Madelyn felt repulsed, but Camila gently pressed her hand and said, "Guests have arrived! Your father always taught you that we must not neglect courtesy." Madelyn forced a smile. Camila welcomed the Bennett family inside without offering any further comment. Madame Bennett had a look as if she was about to cry, "My precious granddaughter lives in such a house! Sob... William, you are not a good father."

William remained silent, his face gloomy. Madelyn's expression remained indifferent. "I'm doing fine! Mr. Bennett, you don't need to feel guilty!" Camila poured them coffee. Madame Bennett wanted to hold Madelyn's hand, but Madelyn avoided it.

The old lady looked heartbroken, "Why won't you acknowledge your roots? William has countless properties, and if you come back, all these things will be left to you and Eleanor. Your father and I would never favor one over the other." Madelyn felt numb hearing those words.

These people only wanted their own flesh and blood and didn't care about the pain she had to face in front of Eleanor. They didn't really want to take her in; they just wanted her to reconcile with Eleanor.

Madelyn was expressionless... Nicolas looked at her and then took a toothpick in his mouth, saying to Madame Bennett, "Only a few pennies, and you're acting like this?"

William's wife was displeased.

She looked at Nicolas and guessed that he was probably an employee, sneering, "You'll never earn this much!"

Nicolas put down the toothpick.

He smirked, "I have several billion right now, want some?"

William's wife was trembling with anger.

"William, look at the people around Madelyn. I've said before that her upbringing is too complicated. She's not suitable for the Bennett family. In comparison, Eleanor's surrounding is much simpler!"

William hesitated. "Madelyn, is he really okay to stay here?" Madelyn smiled coldly.

"Mr. Bennett, my feet can no longer drive. Do you have any objections to me hiring a driver?"

"And, whether I'm complicated or simple, I can't climb up to the Bennett family. You should go back!"

...

Nicolas stood beside her, swaying his body. "That's right, don't disturb my family while we're having a meal!"

...

Madelyn gave him a sharp look. Who said they were family!

But this little wolf-dog had quite a fierce temper. With him here, guarding the Logan family, the Bennett family wouldn't be able to cause trouble easily.

With this thought, Madelyn found him more agreeable!

William's face turned pale. If Madelyn couldn't drive because of her foot, did that mean she couldn't be a pianist either?

He stepped forward, earnestly pleading, "Madelyn, come abroad with me. I will find the best doctors to treat you... You possess my finest genes. Once your foot recovers, you will surely shine brightly."

Madelyn gave a cold smile.

Nicolas snorted, "So you're looking for an heir!"

William wanted to explain, but Nicolas urged them to leave, "Go, go! We didn't make your dinner. It's unbelievable. One after another. But you can't be so shameless!"

William's family was infuriated. Constance, who was born and raised in Esrand, gritted her teeth outside. "Who is that little brat?"

However, William seemed a little absent-minded.

He remembered the look in Madelyn's eyes just now. Besides unfamiliarity, there was only indifference, without a trace of warmth. Constance noticed his thoughts and gently stroked his arm. "We still have Eleanor, William. Eleanor is our true child! Raising is more important than giving birth. Madelyn wasn't raised by us, so it's natural for her to be estranged."

William thought of Eleanor and felt a hint of tenderness in his heart.
