Chapter 107 Benjamin, Are You Sick?
At this moment, Madelyn felt it would be silly to go with him.
She didn't give a direct response, but instead changed her shoes at the entrance. She just said, "I'll
drive you to the airport."
Benjamin looked at her for a few seconds silently.
In the underground parking lot...
Three cars of Benjamin were parked there.
One was a Bentley Continental which he frequently drove, and he seldom drove the other two sports
cars.
Benjamin opened the door of a red Ferrari and settled into the passenger seat.
After Madelyn got in the car, he handed her the car keys and said, "You can drive this car from now on.
It's not safe for you to take a taxi home after teaching Florence."
He was giving this car to her?
Madelyn bit her lip and said, "I'd like to buy myself a new one. This one is too fancy for me."
Benjamin didn't object.
The credit card he had given her had a monthly limit of 8 million dollars, so buying a car wouldn't be a
problem.
Madelyn didn't say anything more and stepped on the gas.
Benjamin had a long and tiring day, and now he didn't feel like talking to her about why they argued last
night. As Madelyn drove smoothly, he leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes to rest.
An hour later, Madelyn parked the car in the underground lot.
She leaned towards him and woke him up.
Benjamin blinked and slowly opened his eyes.
His eyes were deep-set and upturned, looking truly captivating.
Madelyn asked, "Shall I come up with you?"
Benjamin gently held her hand and caressed it before he spoke in a husky voice, "No need. Just drive
back safely."
Madelyn could feel that he was exhausted.
Grateful for his favors, she felt obliged to express her concern.
"You too...send me a message when you land."
Perhaps both of them had softened, and the atmosphere felt different. Benjamin's gaze was fixated on
her lips.
Madelyn leaned in and kissed him. She said to him gently when she looked up at him, "Take care."
Benjamin suddenly pressed his hand against the back of her head and deepened the kiss...
Madelyn was surprised.
She felt his skin was unnaturally hot to the touch.
"Benjamin, are you sick?"
Their lips parted, but he didn't let go of her. Instead, he pressed his forehead against hers...
His voice was hoarse.
"Seems like I've caught a cold. You can feel my forehead."
Madelyn was shy and turned her face away. Her breath quickened as she reminded him, "If you waste
more time teasing me, you'll miss your flight."
"Are you rushing me?"
Benjamin held her close, and with the other hand, he opened the car door.
Madelyn pushed him away.
Seeing him struggling with the heavy luggage, she was worried and added, "If you're not feeling well,
ask the flight attendant for some medicine."
Benjamin looked into her eyes and said, "Got it."
A surge of impulse urged Madelyn to go with him to Esrand, as he was probably sick and had no one
else by his side to take care of him.
But ultimately, she suppressed it.
Back at the apartment, a sense of emptiness washed over her.
She thought about the unusual arguing between her and Benjamin, realizing that they finally didn't start
a fight because of their relationship. They were in no place to quarrel with each other.
Only couples would have a fight for feeling jealousy.
And they weren't together!
Despite that, Madelyn still cared for him deeply. Calculating the time, she called Benjamin three hours
later to ask how he was doing.
"I'm fine for now. Let's talk about it later. I am about to have a negotiation."
Madelyn said OK.
After ending the call, she walked over to the window wall and sat down in front of Louis II to play a
song.
She had fallen in love with Benjamin, and that love wouldn't fade due to arguing this time.
It had taught her how to restrain herself.
...
The next morning, Madelyn wanted to a phone call but was afraid that she would disturb him.
In the end, she decided not to call him.
With Benjamin away, she could focus on setting up her music classroom.
She decided to give her senior colleague, Penelope, a call to seek her advice. Penelope said gladly,
"Madelyn, how about having a meal together?"
At the restaurant, Madelyn realized that Penelope also wanted to start her own business.
"We've taken care of everything else, including the preliminary audits and potential clients. The only
thing left is to find a suitable office. You have no idea how high the real estate price is in Gredax. The
more affordable options are not favored by the parents, and the ones in better locations cost a fortune."
Penelope shook her head.
Madelyn reassured her, "We'll find a suitable place eventually."
Penelope picked up a piece of meat for her.
"How about collaborating with me? You can invest, and in return, you'll receive a salary and a dividend.
By the end of the year, you'll see a handsome return on your investment."
Madelyn pondered for a moment.
Collaborating with Penelope would allow her to expand the business scale and benefit from Penelope's
business acumen.
Madelyn agreed.
They reached a final agreement, with Madelyn investing 400 thousand dollars for 30% stakes.
...
Madelyn was happy to have this opportunity.
After the meal, she especially called Camila.
When Camila learned that she was working with Penelope, she couldn't contain her excitement,
saying, "She's reliable! You can count on her."
There was silence on the phone...
Madelyn understood Camila's concern. She said softly, "Camila, I'm doing fine. Benjamin treats me
well, and besides, he's young and handsome. I have nothing to complain about..."
Camila chuckled at her words.
After hesitating for a while, Camila asked, "In that aspect, have you and Benjamin used protection in
sex... Madelyn, I just don't want you to get hurt."
Madelyn blushed.
Knowing what Camila meant, she replied vaguely, "Don't worry, Benjamin always takes that into
consideration."
Camila blushed too and didn't ask further.
Madelyn changed the subject.
She told Camila she wanted to purchase a car. Camila agreed, saying, "When you're starting your
career, having a car is a must. It makes you look unprofessional to attend business meetings without This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
driving your own car!"
She also told Madelyn to use their money to buy the car instead of spending Benjamin's money,
otherwise she would owe him too much.
Madelyn felt warm upon hearing this.
She said, "I understand, Camila. Don't worry."
...
With Penelope taking care of the arrangements for the music classroom, Madelyn found herself having
nothing to do, so she decided to select and buy a new car.
Considering all the money they got, she thought a budget of around 45 thousand dollars to 60
thousand dollars would be suitable.
In the BMW dealership...
With the help of the salesperson, in less than an hour, she had placed an order for a car priced at 50
thousand dollars.
After making the full payment, she was about to talk with the salesperson when she saw familiar faces.
At first, she thought she had mistaken them and took a closer look.
They turned out to be Elizabeth and Jackson, Vivian's husband.
At that moment, Elizabeth was clinging to Jackson's arm, chatting and pouting prettily at him. It was
clear that they were also there to buy a car.
Jackson seemed hesitant, probably because the car was expensive.
However, Elizabeth gave him an affectionate kiss.
Immediately, Jackson made the purchase, and the way he splashed the money made Madelyn feel
surprised.
Vivian had been with Jackson since their university days, and they had gotten married soon after
graduation.
How could he have an affair with Elizabeth?
Madelyn's mind was in a mess, and she had no idea how to tell Vivian about this.
Elizabeth also spotted Madelyn.
Her previously coquettish expression turned grim, and she quickly went away with Jackson. Clearly she
didn't want him to see Madelyn.
Madelyn remained in a daze for a while.
"Ms. Green?" The salesperson smiled and asked, "Do you have any other questions?"
Madelyn snapped out of it and gave an apologetic smile.
The salesperson quite liked her, as there were few customers who were as easy-going and
accommodating as her. Moreover, Ms. Green was pretty and kind.
After completing the necessary paperwork, Madelyn stepped out of the dealership.
She had driven Benjamin's car to the dealership that day. When she was about to get on, she heard a
voice behind her saying, "Madelyn, let's have a chat!"
