Chapter 56 No Evidence
Helen Benson bit the corner of her lip, but in the end she reluctantly got up and went into the room.
Cecilia Glendon also knew that Abbott Benson was going to talk to herself about something, and she drew up her manuscript and put it away.
“What do you want to discuss with me?” Abbott Benson asked.
“About something in the news.” Cecilia Glendon said, “You have not come forward to explain this matter, the rumors on the Internet has been lopsided, and many people are speculating that your repentance is related to the woman on the previous news.”
The woman, who was sitting in front of Abbott Benson, was out of ideas for the first time.
Even Cecilia Glendon was Oswin Garcia cheated on her when she was not so panicked, was cheated on, she first thought of the first thing is to divorce, decisive divorce with Oswin Garcia.
But this matter … involved too wide, even the Brown’s people will also be involved.
It’s true that Cecilia Glendon doesn’t like everyone at the Brown, but she can’t watch the Brown get dragged down because of herself.
She can’t change Jamie Hall’s mind, but she can ask Abbott Benson for help.
“Are you afraid they’ll find you out?” Abbott Benson folded his legs and rested one hand on his knee, tapping it one at a time, his face contemplative.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“I’m not afraid they’ll pick me out.” Cecilia Glendon corrects, “But I’m worried about the others.”
Abbott Benson frowned, “the Brown.”
“Yes, the Brown,” Cecilia Glendon said, “I do hate the Brown, but I won’t allow the Brown to suffer innocently because of me.”
She said the righteousness, her face are slightly stiff because of the nervous expression, fell in Abbott Benson’s eyes but more than a touch of amusement.
He liked to see her look of seriousness.
“I see.” He hooked up a slight arc, “I’m busy with company stuff these days, so I don’t have time to pay attention to Jamie Hall, now that you asked, I’ll let the heat of this go down as soon as possible.”
“Just the heat going down?” Cecilia Glendon stared, “You know the root cause of this matter is Jamie Hall.”
“So?” Abbott Benson looked at her, “Do you want me to go back and get engaged to her or get married?”
The question thrown at Cecilia Glendon made her head spin, and she took about two seconds to find her voice and say, “Jamie Hall wants nothing more than an explanation from you.”
“Hmm.” Abbott Benson snorted, with mockery, not sure if it was directed at Cecilia Glendon or Jamie Hall, “What she wants is not an explanation from me, but a compromise from me. Her delay in blowing your cover was just a bet on how important you are to me.”
Cecilia Glendon stalled: “What do you mean?”
“Do not understand, Jamie Hall has no evidence to prove that the two of us have a relationship, what she knows is only to catch the wind. If she really had me in her hands, she would have come to the door, and would have Taylor Young in front of the media for so many days without releasing any news?”
At the end, the corner of Abbott Benson’s mouth the mockery is more obvious, even with the eyes are cool a few points: “I have sent people to check, Gail Brown met with Jamie Hall privately, the engagement party Gail Brown also attended.”
He did not say too much, but even so, Cecilia Glendon also guessed.
Like Jamie Hall, Gail Brown had no hard evidence that Cecilia Glendon had a relationship with Abbott Benson, except, of course, for that one night in 1989.
“Gail Brown saw us leaving together back in 1989.” Cecilia Glendon said, “and there were a lot of people who could testify to that at the time.”
“And then what?” Abbott Benson asked.
Cecilia Glendon: “What then?”
“Just seeing us leave, and then what? Couldn’t I have just left you on the side of the road after I pulled you away?” Abbott Benson said lightly, “If that’s enough to say we’re related, then why would Jamie Hall trust Gail Brown when she drugged my drink?”
The root of the matter is that there is no evidence.
When Abbott Benson said this, Cecilia Glendon felt like she was getting through the whole thing.
No wonder, she thought Jamie Hall was holding back because she wanted to make a big move, but she didn’t think it was because there was no evidence at all.
Cecilia Glendon can sue her for defamation anytime if she really says something without evidence.
And, in the end, Jamie Hall is still concerned about Abbott Benson’s identity, his reputation in Greenwich is not earned for nothing, everyone knows his methods.
The Benson family may have been wrong about the Hall family, but if Abbott Benson really came to the door to apologize in person, the Hall family would still have to smile.
When she thought of this, Cecilia Glendon’s heart finally dropped.
Seeing her face crossed that relaxed expression, Abbott Benson smiled slightly: “Now relieved?”
“Relieved …” she smiled, “Thank you.”
“I’ll take care of the Hall side of the family, don’t worry about it anymore.” Abbott Benson’s tone softened a few notches.
“Good.” Cecilia Glendon smiled softly.
Although Abbott Benson gave her the feeling of being far and near, he still stood by her side when it mattered.
This gave Cecilia Glendon great encouragement.
…
After leaving the Caesar Hotel, Cecilia Glendon thought about Helen Benson’s attitude towards herself, as if … Helen Benson did not like her very much.
But she didn’t care about this, she wasn’t living with Helen Benson in the future, so what was there to worry about.
“Brother, do you really like that woman?”
In the hotel room, Helen Benson asked Abbott Benson with a blank face: “What’s so great about her, she’s just like that, not as pretty as Jamie Hall, if you ask me.”
Abbott Benson glanced at her: “Pretty for dinner?”
Helen Benson replied, “Not pretty enough to eat?”
The little girl, Abbott Benson ignored her: “She looks better than Jamie Hall in my eyes, and she’s smart.”
“I don’t think she’s as smart as me.” Helen Benson grunted, “She’s just a good dress designer, nothing else.”
“She doesn’t live with you, so what are you worrying about.” Abbott Benson said, “When do you plan to return to school this time in Greenwich? Let Grandpa know you’re back and you know the consequences.”
“I came back because I was worried about you after such a big incident.” Helen Benson said, “Brother, I don’t think it’s that simple this time. I’ve seen the top posts on the forum, most of them are paid water soldiers, Jamie Hall has no need to hack you so much, it should be someone else.”
“Of course I know.” Abbott Benson did not know what came to his mind, his eyes became cold, “They really have a thief’s heart.”
“You know who it is?” Helen Benson saw the look on his face and asked, “Who is it?”
“What do children care so much.” Abbott Benson continued to look at the planning proposal on his computer, “Just concentrate on your book.”
Helen Benson wanted to say something else, but her lips mumbled twice, her eyes darkened, and she didn’t say anything at all.
Abbott Benson only thought of her as a child, but she hadn’t thought of herself as a child since the day her parents died in a car accident.
