Chapter 230 Madelyn, I Miss You So Much!
But Madelyn didn't have the mood to talk.
She knew clearly what he wanted to discuss, nothing more than wanting to get back together with her.
After all they'd been through, and three years since their divorce...
Madelyn's feelings had cooled. She didn't hate him as much as before, but the love she once had for
him had also vanished.
But because of Everest, she wanted to stay peacefully with him.
She whispered, "I want to see her first!"
Under the dim light.
The hand that he was clutching gently loosened, and then he whispered, "Go! Just don't wake her."
Madelyn made a soft sound of agreement and walked past him to go upstairs.
After she was far away, Benjamin looked down at his palm, which still held the residual warmth of
Madelyn, a warmth he yearned for.
...
On the second floor, in front of the child's bedroom.
Madelyn's fingers landed on the doorknob. She hesitated for a moment, then gently pushed the door
open.
Everest was indeed sleeping.
In the light pink bedroom, a bedside lamp was on, the little girl was sleeping on her side, her small
mouth slightly open, exhaling sweet breaths.
Madelyn's heart was both aching and tender.
She sat by the bed, extended her slender fingers, and gently stroked Everest.
She could never touch enough!
For three years, she had been absent from this child's life, especially the two years when Everest was
lying in the lab. She was not there as a mother.
Guilt overwhelmed her. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Even though she knew that Benjamin was trying to do what was best for her at the time, she still hated
him.
Tears slipped from the corners of Madelyn's eyes. She didn't wipe them away, but bent down and
kissed her Everest.
Everest looked like her.
Yet her temperament was entirely inherited from Benjamin.
Madelyn couldn't help but lie down and hold Everest, smelling the faint scent of milk on her. Her heart
gradually calmed down, as if at this moment, all the pain was being soothed.
Benjamin stood at the door, silently watching them.
He knew he should give Madelyn time to adjust, but he couldn't help himself.
He desperately wanted to get close to her.
It wasn't just about desire, but wanting to have this person, and after three years, he wanted to know if
she still wanted him!
Benjamin turned off the light.
The bedroom suddenly plunged into darkness, and Madelyn was taken aback.
Next, the soft mattress beside her sank deeply, and Benjamin propped himself above her. In the dim
light, neither of them could see each other clearly...
Madelyn lowered her voice. "Benjamin, you're insane!"
He stared at her.
Then under her gaze, he lowered his head and kissed her. Madelyn was caught off guard as he
explored her lips, gently teasing...
They hadn't been intimate for a long time.
Benjamin was clearly much less adept than before, but he teased her based on memory, trying to make
her comfortable.
Madelyn pushed him.
But Everest was sleeping next to them, and any loud noises might wake her. She didn't want the child
to witness this. As she hesitated, Benjamin held her face and began to deeply kiss her...
Madelyn couldn't escape, and in desperation, she bit him.
Benjamin pulled away.
In the darkness, his dark eyes locked onto hers and he said hoarsely, "Madelyn, you responded just
now! You still feel something for my body!"
Madelyn's breathing was chaotic.
At this point, their situation was very embarrassing. Even her every breath had to brush against his
body. She was both shy and angry. "Benjamin, didn't you say we were going to talk in the study? What
is this?"
He leaned his body down.
His face rested on her neck, and he was silent for a long time.
Finally, he said, "Madelyn, I miss you so much! I admit I want you. I want to sleep with you. No man
doesn't want to make love to the woman he loves after being apart for a few years!"
Madelyn's mind cleared somewhat.
She kicked him. "Get off! We're divorced!"
She thought he would insist on staying, but surprisingly, he gently moved his body away, not forcing
her.
It had almost gone too far.
Madelyn went to the bathroom to freshen up, then went to the study to talk to him.
There was too much they needed to discuss.
Everest's past, present, and future.
As parents, even if they were divorced, these things needed to be considered.
...
Clearly, Benjamin was also prepared for a long talk with her.
As Madelyn entered the room, he was making coffee. Hearing her footsteps, he casually said, "Still
Mandheling, right?"
Madelyn nodded and took a seat on the sofa.
She watched his back.
This was the first time she had really observed Benjamin since they had met again. He was still as
handsome as ever, but more reserved in his demeanor, except when he was being shameless, he was
just as he had always been.
Benjamin placed the coffee in front of her.
He took a thick file from the bookshelf and handed it to her to read. Madelyn had been warned by
Kenneth, but when she took the file, her fingers still couldn't help trembling.
The night was deep.
Madelyn flipped through the pages one by one, and he accompanied her.
As the sky began to brighten, Madelyn closed the file, her face full of fatigue.
Benjamin's handsome face fell into memory, and he whispered, "At the beginning, you were not well,
and I was afraid you wouldn't be able to bear it! Later, Everest got better, but the first two years were
very tough! Until this year, Everest has been basically stable. Even though she has some minor issues,
she will grow up healthy!"
Madelyn gently put down the file.
She looked at him and murmured, "The minor issues you mentioned. What are they?"
It was hard for Benjamin to speak, "Autism, coagulation disorder, oh, and... She's got a rare blood
type!"
As he said these things, he was also a bit dazed.
Madelyn was even more bewildered.
Her slender fingers dug into her flesh, unable to believe what she had just heard. Her heart ached
terribly.
Benjamin came up behind her.
He gently embraced her, resting his chin on her thin shoulder. "Madelyn, let's start over! This time, I will
be a good husband and father, and I won't disappoint you again!"
He knew she wouldn't agree easily.
But he couldn't help but say, "Such a night is suitable for courtship."
Madelyn refused without even thinking.
She restrained herself and calmly said, "Benjamin, it's impossible between us! I won't fight with you for
custody rights, because Everest is the child you brought up. I can't hurt her feelings, so the best way is
for us to raise her together! We can allocate time... I'm okay with all of this. It's up to you!"
Benjamin's heart suddenly chilled.
Madelyn had even planned the allocation of time, didn't get angry with him, and didn't even slap him.
He'd rather she slapped him!
With this kind of atmosphere, it was not good for him to tempt her again, so he had to step back. "Let's
talk about it later! Spend some time with Everest first! By the way, Everest goes for a review of her
autism every month. Let's go together next time!"
Madelyn didn't refuse.
She was Everest's mother, and the night before when she stepped into this villa, she knew she would
lose some of her freedom.
But she had no regrets.
Madelyn also had her own selfishness. She tentatively said, "Benjamin, I... I don't plan to get married. If
you plan to marry again, why not let me raise her? I promise not to go abroad, and you can see her
anytime you want!"
