Chapter 224 Meet Again After Three Years
Three years later.
Madelyn and Florence walked out of the airport.
At the exit, Nicolas, swinging his long legs, saw them coming out, immediately took off his sunglasses,
and gave Florence a big hug and a fierce kiss.
Florence's face immediately turned red.
Madelyn was rather helpless.
Florence was only 19 years old. Nicolas was really a jerk!
These years, the Music Center was basically managed by Nicolas. After all, he had the genes of Tyler,
and he expanded the Music Center to Esrand, and it flourished.
Over time, he tricked Florence into his grasp.
When David found out, he beat Nicolas, the rich playboy, half to death! Later, contrary to everyone's
expectations, after Nicolas and Florence got together, Nicolas stopped drinking and going to bars. He
was like the perfect boyfriend.
He visited Florence in Oriapool every month.
...
Madelyn returned to Gredax, mainly because Camila's leg injury recurred and needed to be treated
and recuperated in Gredax.
She invested in a few Edofordian restaurants and occasionally played the piano there.
As a mature, beautiful and financially independent woman, she naturally had many suitors.
But Madelyn had no feelings for them...
...
The Everest Group.
On the 68th floor of the high-rise building, at the top floor president's office.
Benjamin sat behind the solid wood desk, reviewing documents. The light from the entire floor-to-
ceiling window behind him made him look stronger, majestic and godlike.
Paisley walked in.
She looked at her boss and sighed at the favoritism of the heavens for her boss.
When a man reached the age of 33, it was a time for people to savor him. Every bit of him exuded the
charm of a mature man. The women who wanted to have a fling with Mr. Clark lined up from the east of
the city to the west.
Paisley put down a kraft paper bag gently.
Benjamin put down his pen, picked it up, and opened it.
Paisley cleared her throat lightly. "Madelyn is back!"
Benjamin was clearly taken aback.
He looked up at Paisley, his voice a little hoarse. "She's back?"
Paisley felt a bit of pressure. She nodded. "Yes, she's back! Because of her aunt's leg injury, she may
stay in Gredax for a while."
Benjamin didn't ask any more.
He opened the kraft paper bag.
Inside was a stack of photos, all of Nicolas and Madelyn, not very intimate, but enough to make him
jealous.
He knew that Nicolas went to Oriapool every month.
And he hadn't been there once in these three years.
Because of Everest, he couldn't leave, and he didn't dare to disturb her easily!
For three years, he could only ease his longing through pictures, but every time he had to see Nicolas
... and David's sister!
Paisley could see that her boss was jealous!
She quietly put down an invitation. "Mr. Wyatt and Vivian's fourth wedding anniversary dinner. I heard
it's quite grand!"
Benjamin smiled faintly. "This couple!"
Paisley grinned. "Madelyn is also going!"
Benjamin suddenly felt the invitation was valuable, held it in his hand, and casually said, "You've been
working with me for quite some years now. It's time for a raise! Oh, and it's your birthday next month,
right? Go to the mall and pick a gift. You can expense it later!"
Paisley was overjoyed. "Thank you, Mr. Clark!"
To reward herself, she picked a 27,000 necklace! From a legal worker to becoming a profiteer, she
deserved it.
Paisley left.
Benjamin walked alone to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down.
About 10 minutes later, he shakily took out a cigarette and lit it.
After taking a hard puff, he gently closed his eyes.
"She's finally back..." he thought.
...
Saturday night.
Grayson and Vivian's wedding anniversary party.
Madelyn made her first appearance.
She and Vivian hadn't seen each other for a long time, and they hugged each other as soon as they
met.
Vivian held Madelyn, looking at her carefully. She had recovered well, still slender and exquisite, but
with a bit more maturity. She was more attractive.
Vivian's eyes filled with tears. "You naughty girl! You ran so far away!"
Madelyn smiled softly. "I won't leave for now!"
Vivian laughed through her tears. "If you run again, I'll break your legs!"
While she was speaking, Grayson came over, leading their son, Elliot, by the hand. Little Elliot was
already five years old, in the middle class of kindergarten, and had grown quite strong.
Grayson asked their son to greet people.
Elliot was very obedient, and Madelyn liked him very much. She even specially brought a gift.
Vivian looked at her lovingly holding the child, quietly persuading her, "You love children so much and
so many people are pursuing you, but you don't seem to have any feelings for them!"
Madelyn smiled faintly. "No good choice!"
Just as Vivian was about to say something, there was a commotion at the entrance...
Madelyn naturally looked over, and then she was stunned.
It was Benjamin!
Obviously, Benjamin also saw her. They looked at each other, as if everything around them
disappeared.
If they were ordinary divorced couples, three years would be enough to dilute everything.
But they had a child, and their marriage before was so tragic, so how could they easily forget?
In the end, it was Madelyn who came back to her senses first, gave him a faint smile, and then turned
and entered the banquet hall.
Benjamin's eyes were deep.
He stared at her back, greedy... Madelyn was different from before!
He wanted to pretend to chat with her casually, but they were not at the same table. The place where
he was sitting was all business tycoons that Grayson had worked hard to invite. Benjamin distractedly
socialized with them and discussed business.
But his eyes were always on Madelyn.
Madelyn regretted coming a bit.
She didn't expect to bump into Benjamin so quickly. Seeing him, she would always think of some
unpleasant past.
She was a bit silent this night.
She knew he was watching her, and she deliberately ignored it.
Later, Nicolas sought her out for business matters. The banquet hall was noisy, so Nicolas whispered a
few words in her ear.
Madelyn thought about it and agreed with him.
Nicolas smiled and left.
Benjamin noticed all of this. Seeing the little wolf dog being intimate with her, he was very jealous. But
he couldn't do anything about it.
Next to him, someone persuaded him to drink, "Ben, what's wrong with you tonight? You haven't
touched a drop of alcohol till now! Are you afraid of getting drunk and messing things up, so you are
trying to maintain your chastity?"
Benjamin smiled faintly. "I drove myself, Mr. Hunter, please forgive me!"
Mr. Hunter was the boss of a six-star hotel. He saw Madelyn just now and guessed his thoughts.
He lowered his voice. "Is Madelyn back?"
Benjamin hummed lightly.
Mr. Hunter felt that Benjamin was bitter and drank several glasses of red wine to cheer him up. "Ben,
looking at your monk-like private life, I think Madelyn will be moved! Hey, where did Madelyn go?"
Benjamin quickly chased after her.
Madelyn really left early. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Vivian said there was another private party later. Madelyn didn't want to go, so she refused.
She took the elevator to the first floor of the hotel.
In the parking lot, a black car was waiting for her.
The driver saw her coming down and opened the door for her.
Just as Madelyn was about to get in, the car door was gently held by someone. She looked up and saw
Benjamin's handsome face close at hand. He said in a deep voice like red wine, "Madelyn, can we find
a place to talk?"
Madelyn hesitated.
She didn't want to reminisce with him, but she knew Benjamin. If she refused, he could make the driver
watch the fun.
After weighing the options, she pointed to the coffee shop across the street. "Let's go sit there!"
After saying that, she walked ahead.
Benjamin knew that she was deliberately keeping a distance and didn't give him the opportunity he
wanted. He didn't force it. He just followed her at a leisurely pace, walking and lighting a cigarette.
When they got to the coffee shop across the street, he put out the cigarette.
In the bright coffee shop.
Madelyn ordered a cup of Mandeling. She stirred it gently and politely said, "How have you been these
years? I heard that you established the Everest Group and you are doing very well!"
The Everest Group took just three years to reach the top ten in Luthie.
Market value in the billions!
Madelyn took a sip of coffee. "Benjamin, you do everything so well!"
Benjamin's gaze was far more direct than hers.
Since sitting down, his eyes had not left her face. Like a machine gun, after hearing her words, he
lightly chuckled. "Is that so? I do everything well?"
Madelyn was slightly taken aback!
Her ears turned a bit red, and then her attitude cooled down. "I have to go!"
Benjamin regretted it a little.
He gentlemanly tried to keep her, his voice becoming gentle. "I was wrong! Please stay a little longer!
Madelyn... Why don't you ask about my love life these past few years?"
Madelyn didn't want to ask.
She quietly paid for the coffee and walked ahead.
For divorced couples, a cup of coffee was enough.
Benjamin ran out. "I'll take you home!"
Madelyn stopped.
Under the neon lights, she raised her eyes to look at him.
He still looked handsome, even more attractive than before, but after three years, they were no
different from strangers.
He missed her, but Madelyn had been gradually forgetting him and dulling her feelings over these three
years!
Madelyn softly said, "I can see that you are eager for marriage now, Benjamin... Find a good woman
and get married! Our story is over, and I ... can't stay in the past forever."
Remembering all this, she thought of the pain.
Madelyn turned and quickly walked away.
Benjamin stood in the night, silently watching her.
Across the street, her driver was waiting for her. He was selected by Kenneth. Now she was the young
daughter of the Ryan family, having the best of everything. She didn't need to entertain, enjoying a life
of comfort and freedom.
Indeed, she didn't need to look back...
