Margot gave Kayla a cold look. "Are you his mother? Who are you to meddle with his affairs? What's your relationship with Benjamin? How dare you chase away his savior without his permission?"Kayla hadn't expected the frail girl to be so quick-witted. She was at a loss for words.Margot rolled her eyes at Kayla before turning back to Patrick. "Which ward is Benjamin in?"The dumbfounded Patrick snapped back to reality. He unconsciously pointed to a nearby ward.Without wasting any more time on them, Margot walked toward the room."Stop right there!" Kayla suppressed her annoyance and glared at Margot. "You look suspicious. Benjamin needs rest right now. It's fine if you want to see him. But first, we must look into your identity and ensure you won't harm him.""Are you stupid? How in the world did you come up with that insane excuse?" Margot glanced at Kayla as if she was looking at a madman. "If I wanted to harm him, why would I save him in the first place?"Kayla's jaw dropped
Benjamin jumped up. The sudden movement was too much for his injured body, and he fell under a dizzy spell. He immediately held his head."Be careful." Margot reached out to help him lean against the bed.Benjamin wanted to push Margot away, but he didn't have the strength to do so with how dizzy he felt.Margot wasn't too persistent either. Once she saw him calm down, she let go and nodded. "That's right, I pulled you out of the car. You would have been blown into pieces if it weren't for me."Benjamin pursed his lips, and his devilishly handsome face froze.He carefully observed Margot, who was dressed in ragged clothes with her hair tied up messily. Her delicate face stood out, but she looked too skinny. It made her large eyes look even bigger, like a doll.Benjamin frowned at her. "You saved me, and I can grant you whatever you want. But I don't run a junkyard."Margot fell silent.If she didn't know what kind of person he would grow into, she would have torn him to shreds
"Hello? Earth to Mr. Inkling?" Patrick's voice snapped Benjamin back to reality. He frowned and looked at him."What is it?" Benjamin hissed.Patrick gave him an apologetic look. "Mr. Inkling, I'm sorry about today. I didn't properly inspect the vehicle. I caused you to have an injury. How would you like to handle this matter?"Benjamin pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a headache rising. He was feeling quite stressed at the moment. When he regained consciousness earlier, he wondered why the brakes had malfunctioned. But then he heard the girl crying beside him.Her crying bothered him so much that he had forgotten all about the sports car.Even when Patrick brought it up, he still couldn't muster the energy to care about it.He felt dizzy and nauseous. And all he wanted was some quiet time."Sigh, I'll leave you be for now. Call me if you need anything." Patrick turned to leave.Benjamin slowly lay back down. The moment he closed his eyes, a heart-wrenching scream ec
Margot peered through the window on the ward's door and saw that Benjamin was already asleep. The light shone on him, making his complexion even paler.Margot adjusted her breathing and softly pushed the door open. Then she stepped inside.However, she felt a sharp gaze on her as she closed the door.Margot paused and blinked. She turned around, and a bright smile appeared on her face."Why are you awake? Were you waiting for me all this time?"Margot approached him with a lunchbox.Benjamin furrowed his brows as he looked at her. "Why are you back again?"She even changed her attire.She was wearing a red dress, and her long hair looked alluring. She looked completely different from her previous dirty and beggar-like appearance.A strange sensation stirred in Benjamin when he saw her like this.It was an odd feeling. It made him uncomfortable.How could that young girl evoke so many emotions in him?Margot placed the lunchbox on the cabinet and asked, "Are you hungry?"Be
Noticing him feeling gloomy, Margot flashed a playful smile at him. "Take your time to consider. I'm good at my job. I will definitely take good care of you. Of course, you can cover my meals if you don't want to pay a wage.""Do you think I'm short of money?" Benjamin couldn't help but retort.A mischievous glint flickered in Margot's eyes. "So, does that mean you agree? Then just pay me a salary according to the market rate."Benjamin was speechless. He cursed himself for his carelessness. He had actually fallen into this young girl's trap.Narrowing his eyes, Benjamin observed her. She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. Why was she so mature?She even knew how to play tricks. She didn't seem like she was seventeen or eighteen at all.Margot walked over and helped him up. "Let's have something to eat first, and then you can rest."Benjamin didn't resist either. After all, she was now his caretaker.The more he thought about it, the more exasperated he became.Marg
"Be careful!" Margot immediately came over to support him. After he lay down, she carefully tucked him in with the blanket. Seeing his furrowed brows, she asked, "Still feeling unwell? Should I call a doctor?"She was about to leave after saying this.Benjamin instinctively held onto her hand. "I'm fine."Her hand was small and soft. But she was too thin. She felt too bony.Benjamin glanced at her hand and released it. "I'm going to sleep. You can go now."Margot blinked. "But I have nowhere else to go."Hearing this, Benjamin paused. He pursed his lips. "Then stay here."He had completely given in."Okay."Margot nodded and sat down on the sofa, watching him sleep.Her gaze made Benjamin uncomfortable. It was too intense, like she had many things to share with him.Didn't they only meet a few times?He did have some impression of her. He knew that she was an orphan from the orphanage.But they had no prior interactions. So why was Margot so in love with him?"Don't loo
Margot quickly returned with two lunchboxes in her hands. She placed them on the table and helped Benjamin to his feet. Immediately afterward, she set up the small table.Benjamin said, "I need to use the bathroom.""Sure, go ahead."Margot fiddled with the containers.Benjamin furrowed his brows, "I'm feeling dizzy and weak."Margot fell silent for a while, then helped him up from the bed.Benjamin draped his arm over her shoulder, and his entire weight pressed onto her.Margot found it a bit strenuous. She was really quite frail now.Benjamin complained, "You're too thin. Your bones are poking into me."Margot remained silent.After entering the bathroom, she helped him onto the toilet seat and left.However, Benjamin's voice echoed from the bathroom within just a few minutes."I'm done."Margot furrowed her brows slightly, but a smile tugged at her lips. "Mr. Inkling, have you managed to put your pants on properly? It wouldn't be appropriate if I walked in just like thi
Margot was slightly stunned. She then accepted the envelope. It was thick, indicating there should be a substantial amount inside.She lowered her eyes slightly to conceal her emotions. She had to accept the payment now. Otherwise, Benjamin would surely continue suspecting her.Harris glanced at her. "Please take good care of Mr. Inkling.""Don't worry."Margot smiled. Then, she headed to the kitchen to start preparing soup.Making the soup would take a while, so she sat in the living room and started watching a TV drama.As she watched the TV show, she suddenly felt dazed.Since returning to the present after being reborn, she hadn't contacted Tamara yet.Tamara was probably still with the Simmons. The Simmons family hadn't faced any financial difficulties. She was still the cherished daughter of the family.Margot's brows furrowed slightly.Should she intervene in Tamara's affairs?She knew Tamara would live a happy life as she was the daughter of the Moore family from Cla
