Chapter 276 Benjamin, I'm Pregnant!
It was ten o'clock in the morning.
Paisley arrived at the law firm.
Benjamin's assistant led her into the office and smiled. "Welcome back, Paisley!"
However, Paisley wasn't sure of herself...
She closed the door and stared at Benjamin behind the desk.
Benjamin didn't even raise his head and continued to review the documents. He asked in a casual tone, "Did Madelyn send you here?"
Paisley didn't deny it and nodded, "Yes! Mrs. Clark said that I am proficient in this area and can assist Mr. Clark."
Benjamin smiled lightly.
He closed the documents and chatted casually for a while, then casually asked, "By the way, is the General Manager of Everest Group, Mr. Herman, Joseph Herman?"
Paisley was slightly puzzled. "Oh, yes, it's him!"
Benjamin's tone became even lighter. "Is he married?"
Paisley didn't understand why he was asking, but she answered truthfully, "Mr. Herman is 35 years old, with good conditions, but he has never been married. I heard he doesn't have a girlfriend either!"
Unmarried and no girlfriend...
Benjamin pursed his lips slightly and said, "Alright, I got it. You can go out for now."
Paisley took the documents and was about to leave.
Benjamin suddenly asked again, "What time is Madelyn's prenatal check-up, and which hospital is it at? Send me the details..."
Paisley couldn't help but smile. "Sure, I'll send it to you later!"
...
Benjamin arrived at the hospital around 11 in the morning.
Madelyn had already completed her prenatal check-up. She was sitting alone on a hospital bench, quietly looking at the ultrasound report in her hand.
Benjamin approached slowly.
He noticed that she was alone, and Mr. Herman was nowhere to be seen.
He understood that this was her little trick.
He wasn't particularly annoyed, so he sat down next to her and stretched his body, glancing at her. "Let me see!"
Madelyn handed the ultrasound report to him.
"It's almost five months! I've already picked a name for the baby, Fran, Francis Clark!"
Benjamin looked at the ultrasound report. "Is it a boy?"
Madelyn nodded, her gaze falling on his handsome face. At this moment, she wished he would suddenly remember and say to her, "I'm sorry, Madelyn, for being late!"
But that didn't happen...
Benjamin, who had lost part of his memory, was merely playing the role of a husband reluctantly.
He came here because he was afraid she would cuckold him!
Sure enough, after looking at the ultrasound report, he gracefully escorted her downstairs and didn't bother inviting her for lunch.
They went their separate ways downstairs!
In the days that followed...
Benjamin lived like a bachelor; he was always socializing outside and rarely came home!
A private investigator sent photos to Madelyn, showing that Benjamin attended one social event after another, often in the company of numerous socialites and ladies...
One month later, at Everest Group's president's office.
Madelyn stood quietly by the floor-to-ceiling window. On her desk were several photos.
Joseph entered and happened to see them.
He pretended not to have seen them and considerately said, "Mrs. Clark, how about... I attend Mr. Kermit's private dinner alone tonight. You should go home early and rest!"
Madelyn gently shook her head. "Mr. Kermit has been a great help this time. I have to go!"
Joseph didn't insist any further.
He left...
At 9:30 in the evening, at Gredax's most upscale business club.
After having dinner, Madelyn was preparing to leave, and Joseph was planning to go back for a second round of drinks after seeing her off. They were discussing business matters as they walked.
Suddenly, Madelyn's gaze froze...
Next to the elevator, a private room's door was half open.
Inside, everything was clearly visible.
There were about five or six men, half of whom Madelyn recognized, including her husband, of course. What was most remarkable was that each man was accompanied by a young woman, and Benjamin was no exception.
Although he didn't embrace any of the women, they were leaning softly against him.
He didn't push them away!
Madelyn watched in silence...
Sensing her gaze, Benjamin raised his head, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward...
Inside, there was Ethan who was familiar to both Madelyn and Benjamin. He was the owner of the Six-Star Hotel.
Ethan immediately extinguished his cigarette and quickly stood up. "Madelyn, what a coincidence! Please don't misunderstand Ben. We're just here to discuss business, and nothing else. You know what he is like, Madelyn!"
He invited Madelyn in.
Inside, there were another five or six young women!
In this situation, if Madelyn went in, it would be embarrassing for her. Joseph also said, "Mrs. Clark, why don't you go back in the car first!"
Madelyn wanted to leave, but she couldn't move her limbs.
She stared at Benjamin intently.
The young women around Benjamin didn't seem to understand the situation and muttered, "This Mrs. Clark is quite interesting. She can't control her husband and wants to keep up appearances as the big boss's wife!"
Ethan was in a hurry...
Madelyn had a temper, and she wasn't easy to handle!
Madelyn still went in. She supported her 6-month pregnant belly and walked gracefully to the young woman's side, smiling gently. "You're a student from the Gredax Art School, right? At such a young age, instead of honing your skills, you're out here drinking with a man... Do you believe that with just one word from me, you won't have any performance opportunities after you graduate!"
The young woman didn't believe her. She thought that with Benjamin by her side, she was safe.
But she waited for a long time, and Benjamin remained cold and didn't intervene at all!
The young woman's smile froze!
Madelyn didn't feel victorious because she knew exactly what kind of person Benjamin used to be.
A girl like her couldn't possibly catch his eye!
He was deliberately making her unhappy!
Finally, Benjamin made a move...
He looked at Joseph, who was holding Madelyn's shoulder, and said lightly but irresistibly, "I'll take you home!"
With that, he held Madelyn's hand.
Ethan, in order to ease the atmosphere, deliberately said, "You see, they are so affectionate!"
The young woman felt embarrassed.
But Madelyn felt even more embarrassed.
She remained silent until they got into the black luxury car. She didn't speak to Benjamin, turned her face to look out of the car window...
It was late at night.
The dark night, like a winged monster, devoured everything!
Including their past love...
Benjamin answered a phone call in the car, which was from his father, Alexander. Alexander's tone was not pleasant as he scolded his son severely. Presumably, he had learned about what happened at the club!
Benjamin casually dealt with his father and looked at Madelyn with deep eyes...
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the villa.
Benjamin got out of the car, opened the car door on Madelyn's side, and gestured for her to get out.
Madelyn slowly raised her eyes.
Her gaze was moist and filled with weariness.
Benjamin was not rough. He simply picked her up and carried her all the way to the master bedroom on the second floor...
She was pregnant.
He didn't act rudely. He only pinned her to the foot of the bed and quickly removed her coat. Underneath, she wore a V-necked, thin red wool dress that accentuated her fair and tempting skin.
After Madelyn's initial confusion, she began to resist and said, "Benjamin, what do you want?"
"To sleep with you!"
He threw a stack of photos down, scattering them around her face!
Each one was of him, in different situations, but mostly at social gatherings in clubs.
The edges of the photos were sharp and scratched her delicate cheeks.
But Madelyn couldn't feel the pain...
He had always known, and that was why he intentionally didn't come home and intentionally lingered outside!
He resisted this marriage.
"There are many more!"
"Mrs. Clark, didn't you have someone follow me and take pictures of me? Isn't that what you wanted? I'm fulfilling your desires now, why are you crying instead... hmm?"
Benjamin began unbuttoning his shirt, deliberately taking each button off slowly with his long fingers, letting her see his well-defined muscles...
Madelyn cried out in fear, "Benjamin, I'm pregnant!"
"Six months is enough! I heard that when women are pregnant, it feels different! I really want to try it, and you should also experience how different I am from before!"
