Chapter 218 A Brokenhearted Woman Won't Turn Back

Kenneth lifted his chin slightly, squinting his eyes.

After a while, he sneered, "You're just a little girl who hasn't grown up yet. Don't meddle in adult affairs!" After saying that, he left with the entourage of bodyguards, showing extreme coldness.

Eloise was afraid of him.

At that moment, Eleanor screamed, "Dad... your hand..."

William rolled over and sat up.

He raised his hands, which were fractured and almost useless. He would never be able to play the piano again.

William was in so much pain that he lost consciousness.

He felt it was a punishment from Madeline up in heaven!

Although Eloise disliked them, William saved her when she was young, so she called a doctor for William but didn't speak to them.

Trembling, William said, "Eloise, do you also think I'm terribly guilty? I just... thought that Madelyn and Eleanor are sisters, and Ben is Eleanor's brother-in-law. It's right for families to help each other."

Eloise wanted to speak but choked up several times.

Finally, she exhaled deeply and asked, "What is considered 'right'?" Eleanor always clings to my brother, but you continually indulge her and create the potential for misunderstandings! All you do is show partiality and try to force Eleanor on my brother... Mr. Bennett, my parents avoid stating some things to save face, but I will make it evident to you now. With her tumultuous personal life, Eleanor would never be accepted by my family! You may not be aware of the reason my brother broke up with her. He discovered her sleeping with a fitness teacher, and there were used condoms all over the floor... Isn't that scandalous, Mr. Bennett?"

William's face turned pale.

He looked at his adopted daughter with deep sorrow.

He had always thought she was willful but innocent in other aspects, utterly unaware of her... promiscuity!

Eleanor gritted her teeth, "You're talking nonsense!"

Eloise rolled her eyes, "You know damn well whether it's nonsense or not! Go get yourself checked at the gynecologist, you might have contracted all sorts of diseases a long time ago! And... don't come here and disgust us again, or else I'll call uncle Ryan!"

Eloise let out a sigh of relief.

She felt satisfied, but when she thought about Madelyn and Everest, her eyes welled up with tears...

After everyone left, Benjamin wanted to talk to Madelyn in the hospital room, but she still refused to communicate with him.

She turned her back to him.

Benjamin watched her for a long time before silently leaving.

He went to visit Camila.

Camila's leg injury was severe, and she still couldn't leave bed to walk. Otherwise, she would definitely take care of Madelyn herself. She had heard about the child not being well and shed tears of heartache every day, her eyes almost swollen from crying.

Benjamin pushed open the door and called out hoarsely, "Mom!"

Camila was adjusting her leg and, upon seeing him, inexplicably burst into tears again. She was in so much pain that she couldn't utter a word.

Benjamin handed her a tissue and poured a glass of water.

Camila wiped away her tears, composed herself, and said softly, "Ben, I understand what you mean... you still want to be married to Madelyn! But marriage isn't taken lightly. I know you're capable and haven't lost any lawsuits. You went to Monatiz with some concerns about Eleanor. But Madelyn is pregnant now, and you've had that kind of relationship with Eleanor before. You shouldn't leave her alone and go to Monatiz !"

Benjamin nodded.

He slowly squatted down, resting his head against Camila's leg. "It's my fault! Mom... I don't want to separate from Madelyn. I want a chance to make it up to her."

Camila couldn't help but cry again.

Make it up...

Right now, Everest lies in an incubator. How can he make it up?

This kind of heartache is fatal to a woman. It's not like having another child will make it better.

No matter how many children you have, they are not Everest.

Camila touched his face and whispered, "Madelyn really likes you. If she didn't like you that much, she wouldn't keep giving you chances! Just think about what happened between Vivian and Grayson. If it were someone else, would Madelyn trade herself for him? Definitely not! It's because you're Benjamin... You've been through so much together, but sadly, you still don't appreciate it. Maybe it's because you have too much and everything comes too easily..."

"But in marriage, once a woman's heart dies, she won't turn back!"
