Chapter 222 I, Benjamin Clark, Will Withdraw From The Law Field Forever!
Two days before Madelyn was discharged from the hospital.
Benjamin had to deal with a previous lawsuit at ten o'clock in the morning. At eight o'clock, he told
Eloise specifically to take care of Madelyn and asked Eloise to call him if anything happened.
Eloise nodded, "I will take good care of my sister-in-law!"
He glanced at Madelyn again.
He found that she was leaning against the bed and reading a book quietly. She looked much better and
her face became a bit rounder than before.
Although he knew that she didn't care, he still said softly, "I'll come back to have lunch with you at
noon!"
Nothing replied to him but silence.
He smiled bitterly and walked out of the ward.
Paisley was waiting for him outside. Seeing that Benjamin came out, he asked with concern
immediately, "How is Madelyn?"
Benjamin took the document and whispered, "Better! The doctor says that she can be discharged from
the hospital."
Paisley said something to comfort him.
...
As Benjamin arrived at the first floor, a dense crowd of media reporters gathered in front of the black
RV, scrambling to interview him with microphones.
"Mr. Clark, this is the first time that you have shown up in court since something happened to your
wife."
"Will it affect your performance?"
"Are you sure about keeping your record of winning the cases?"
...
Benjamin didn't say anything and just got into the back seat of the car.
Paisley stopped the reporters and said something proper and polite before she sat in the back seat. But
she scolded the unscrupulous media in her heart, "Stinkers!"
She looked at her boss with concern, worried that he would not at his best today.
As the confidant, she knew clearly how much Benjamin cared about his reputation!
But on the contrary, he was rather calm!
He told the driver with an expressionless face, "Let's go then!"
At nine o'clock, the car stopped slowly at the gate of the Supreme Judicial Court of Gredax. Benjamin's
client was already waiting, while the lawyer of the other party, with an ambitious look on his face, was
also not far away.
As Benjamin got out of the car, he was stopped by a bunch of flowers.
Eleanor looked more delicate than a rose. She stared at him shyly.
As she went through a marriage, she felt that Benjamin was just someone she wanted.
She knew that his marriage had been torn to pieces. She thought that he would come back to her
someday as long as she was gentle, considerate and more generous.
Eleanor said affectionately, "Ben, I hope you will win the case today!"
Benjamin frowned.
He helped her with the lawsuit just for his duty, or perhaps for the end of their relationship.
What was Eleanor doing right now?
She looked so flirty, "When you win, let's open champagne and I will be yours!"
The reporters burst into an uproar.
Did she just express her love in public?
And this Ms. Bennett seemed to be Mr. Clark's first love. Would there be a crisis in his marriage?
Would Ms. Bennett really be his right girl?
Everyone was waiting for his response.
But Benjamin just spoke into a microphone, "I have my wife and I have no intention of cheating on her!
Please don't be that cheap, Ms. Bennett!"
And then he just walked into the court. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
Eleanor was so angry that it got her bent out of shape. And the flowers were thrown on the ground.
The reporters were laughing at her.
She tried her best to keep the smile on her face and said shamelessly, "Well, we are childhood
sweethearts and no one can take my place in his heart! If the law is his first life, I am his second one
then!"
The reporters wrote it down hurriedly.
Such news would no doubt cause a sensation!
Paisley looked at Eleanor and shook her head slightly, feeling that the latter was challenging
Benjamin's patience.
The court was in session on time at ten o'clock.
Benjamin was at his best, as he always did.
It was basically settled at eleven o'clock.
Mr. Clark just kept his undefeated record. His photos would be exposed in major media tomorrow.
It was ten past eleven.
The lawyer on the opposite side asked for an adjournment and wanted to negotiate with Benjamin's
side.
As the judge had just called a recess, he got a phone call. It was Eloise. She was crying.
"Brother, sister-in-law has gone missing! I can't find her anywhere."
"I just went to the bathroom. Well, I didn't mean it."
"Will something happen to her, Benjamin?"
...
Benjamin said softly, "I'll be right back!" And then he hung up the phone.
He stood up slightly under so many gazes.
He stared at the dissatisfied judge and said in a hoarse voice, "My wife needs me, so I... ask the client
to change the lawyer!"
The judge was stunned.
So was his client.
So was everyone.
The lawsuit would soon be over and it wouldn't take half an hour. If Benjamin stayed, he could still keep
his record of victory and be a legend in the law field!
What was he doing right now?
The judge looked unnatural with his facial muscles and coughed softly, "Have you made up your mind,
Mr. Clark? Leaving court will bring you a revocation of a two-year practice license! You won't be
allowed to stand in court for the next two years!"
He was walking toward the gate.
Suddenly, he paused and said rather softly, "More than two years! From now on, I, Benjamin Clark, will
withdraw from the law field forever!"
As soon as he announced his decision, it created quite a furor among the media!
The case itself was no longer important and everyone's focus was on his decision.
The king of the law field withdrew from it forever.
Was it April Fools' Day today?
Eleanor, who was behind him, almost went crazy. Did Benjamin know what he was doing? Would he
leave the law field just because Madelyn was missing?
How could he do that!
How could he humiliate her like that!
Benjamin walked rather quickly while Paisley followed him and mounted that she would have to learn
something new.
It was outside the court.
Benjamin's car got blocked by the reporters and he just couldn't start it at all.
He put his hand on the car door and said softly, "Look, my wife is missing and I want to find her right
now! I used to think that the court was the most important place in my life, but now I realize that family
is what I want the most! I love my wife very much!"
And then he got into the car.
The reporters spread out slowly and made a way for him...
Everyone was silent.
They were all shocked by his decision!
When Benjamin left, he thought that he might hate to part with the court. But he didn't feel that way,
because he knew that he was coming for the most important person in his life...
Madelyn lost the opportunity to become a top pianist that night.
She protected their little girl with her life.
He felt that he could also give up what he loved, like she did. Whenever she was sad, he would never
let her face it alone again...
Behind Benjamin, Eleanor screamed hysterically.
Numerous disdainful gazes were focused on her...
So it was Mr. Clark's wife who he truly loved. But Ms. Bennett just never gave up and became a home
wrecker...
Later, someone exposed a large number of explicit photos of Eleanor on the internet.
She used to be acknowledged as a pure and attractive lady, but now everyone thought she was cheap
and dissolute.
...
The news that Benjamin left the law field had caused a great uproar in other industries.
He refused to take any interviews and asked the driver to go to the Clark's Cemetery.
Sure enough, Madelyn was here.
She stood quietly in her hospital gown.
Benjamin walked over softly. She seemed to know that it was him and said in a soft voice, "It's
Everest's 31th day today since she was born."
