Chapter 65 She Couldn't Sleep without Him Beside
Daniel suddenly rolled over.
He took over his phone and opened the hidden photo album.
Inside, there was only one photo of Madelyn.
It had been taken two or three years ago, and at that time, he used to work late into the night. Every evening, Madelyn would cook dinner for him and wait for him at home. That night, she fell asleep while waiting for too long.
She looked so innocent and sweet.
When he came back home tired, seeing her sleeping face made his heart soft.
For one reason, he took a photo of her.
Later he broke up with her and pursued Eloise, but he still kept this photo... Daniel didn't know why he did this.
Clearly, he didn't like her so much!
Also, he didn't treat her well when he still got the chance!
He kept staring at the picture for a long time until he heard knocking on the door. Gabriella's voice came from outside the door, "Daniel, we need to talk."
Daniel told her to come in and put away his phone.
Gabriella entered, and it broke her heart to see her son's pale and drawn face. However, there was something she had to tell him.
"Daniel, what happened between you and Madelyn is a thing of the past now."
"You're already got engaged with Eloise, and you mustn't let her down."
"What's more, Madelyn is living together with another man, and her reputation will be tarnished sooner or later. How can the Campbell family have such a daughter-in-law?" Gabriella's words were cutting.
Daniel frowned and said coldly, "She doesn't want to get back together with me either." After saying that, he grabbed his coat and headed out.
Gabriella followed him out and asked, "Where are you going?"
"My office."
Sitting in his Lotus sports car, Daniel didn't start it right away.
He closed his eyes and thought about his mother's words. It killed him to hear that Madelyn was living with another man.
He thought if he hadn't pushed her too far Madelyn would never have met Benjamin.
Let alone living with Benjamin!
Madelyn hurried back to the apartment before five o'clock.
Since Benjamin was usually home around seven, she counted the time and made dinner first.
For fear that she would get the cooking smell on her, she took a bath after cooking.
Madelyn had a good day. She hung the clothes she bought one by one in Benjamin's built-in wardrobe. Those soft fabric clothes matched well and blended with his luxurious suits. In the end, she took out the items she had bought for him.
Two shirts and one belt.
All were of international brands and cost a lot of money.
She touched them slowly and pictured how dashing Benjamin would look when he wore them, which made her blush.
Suddenly her phone rang, and it was Benjamin calling.
Benjamin had a temper, but once they were in a relationship he treated her quite well.
"The new case I've taken is quite difficult, so I have to work late for the next few days."
Madelyn asked, "Are you not coming back for dinner?"
Benjamin said yes and added before he should hang up, "I might only have time to go home and change clothes."
Suddenly, Madelyn felt guilty for spending so much money today.
Benjamin was really busy working and ended the call quickly.
Madelyn put aside her phone, and her joy faded away while she was staring at the shirts hanging in the closet.
She had dinner alone.
She was not used to sleeping by herself. Usually, Benjamin would hug her and kiss her...
Madelyn felt a little shy.
Why would she miss Benjamin's hugs?
She forced herself to sleep, but she woke up a few times in the night. Benjamin still hadn't come back home in the morning, while Claire stopped by...
Claire knew Benjamin's work schedule well and comforted her, "Mr. Clark is often busy handling cases. Ms. Green, don't worry about it!"
Madelyn nodded.
Since Benjamin was working late and didn't have time to come back, Madelyn thought she couldn't just stay at home and do nothing. She asked Claire to make another breakfast, and she would bring it to him.
