The Abandoned Wife Chapter 11
"Caroline, what are you thinking about?" asked Ben as he rubbed Caroline's cheek with his thumb.After daydreaming for a while, Caroline finally came to her senses. Ben was so worried about her. Not only calm, but Ben gave her a warm hug that she could no longer get from Johan."Whatever makes you anxious, please let me know. I will erase all your anxiety, Caroline. Don't distance yourself from me again." Ben rubbed the top of Caroline's head repeatedly while cuddling comfortably."I just feel a little uneasy. Will I be able to be happy after divorcing Johan?" Caroline took a deep breath and rested her head on Ben's chest."Yes, of course you can. You deserve that happiness, Caroline. Once you are officially divorced from Johan, you will be free from all the pain. Enjoy your life to the fullest." Ben hugged Caroline's body even tighter.What if Johan's shadow never really disappeared from her life? Johan might not be in Caroline's life anymore, but the pain he gave her would always be

Johan accidentally saw Caroline and Ben at the restaurant. He still remembered Ben's face well when he visited his company that time. It was true, all of this was related to Caroline."Caroline is the bearer of bad luck!" Johan swore harshly.Johan felt his emotions rising and wanted to confront the two of them sitting there. His hands were clenched tightly as if he wanted to punch Ben in the face.Suddenly, Caroline showed a frightened look because she saw Johan in this restaurant. Ben followed the direction of Caroline's gaze. Johan stepped forward even more while Ben just acted casually."Mr. Charles, it's very nice to see you here." Johan extended his hand towards Ben.Johan looked at Caroline. Caroline did not dare to look at her husband. Her hands were shaking with fear. Johan's hand was still not reciprocated by Ben."I feel happy too Mr. Charlotte." Finally, Ben stood up and returned Johan's hand.Johan smiled slyly at Ben. However, Ben did not feel afraid at all even though t

Ben stopped the car immediately after hearing Caroline's words. She was surprised to see Ben's reaction."So, you still want to be with Johan?" Ben asked Caroline in a low voice as if he was not excited.Caroline did not immediately answer Ben's question. The man was still looking at her with a sad gaze. Ben let out a long breath and leaned his head on the back of the chair."If you want to get back together with Johan, that's your right and I certainly can't prevent it. After all, falling in love with someone we've been with for a long time, of course, leaves a lot of memories. Like you and Johan." Ben's tone was so sad when he spoke in front of Caroline.Caroline immediately shook her head and held Ben's hand. She was determined not to go back to Johan again."Ben, I have no reason to be with Johan anymore. And yeah, we're getting a divorce. I want to get my happiness back."Ben's face lit up. He was happy to hear Caroline's answer. Then, she told Ben to drive the car and get back h

Ben blinked his eyes and woke up. Then, he saw Caroline who was still sleeping next to him. He was willing to do anything for Caroline, even if it was just sleeping on a chair. Moments like this rarely happened to him. He usually sleeps in a spacious room and a comfortable and soft bed.He looked at Caroline's beautiful face even though she was asleep. He smoothed Caroline's hair slowly so as not to wake her up. Ben cursed Johan's attitude that had been arbitrary to the woman in front of him. Ben would not go anywhere and would keep Caroline until she woke up."No, don't hurt me. I beg you," Caroline said loudly even though her eyes were tightly closed.It turned out that Caroline was having a nightmare. Ben was so worried about her. Then, he took one of Caroline's hands and rubbed it gently."I beg you, don't hurt me. I promise to do any work in this house."Ben tried to calm Caroline down by saying her name. However, Caroline was still shackled by her nightmares. Of course, the nigh

"Oh, so it's you?" asked Johan with a sly smile.Suddenly, Andrew walked into Ben's room in a hurry. However, Andrew didn't expect to see Johan here."You were with Caroline that time, right?" Johan pointed at Andrew and still remembered it well."Johan, if you no longer have any interest here, please leave my office!" Ben asked Johan to leave immediately.Johan stepped forward with a disrespectful attitude in front of Ben as if challenging him to a fight. Ben tried not to be provoked."You must remember this one thing, Mr. Charles. You will never be happy with Caroline." After saying that, Johan took a few steps back.Andrew gave Johan a fierce look. He wanted to slap the man in front of him. Then, Andrew moved closer to Ben. Johan could only laugh as he walked away."Sir, it looks like Johan has started investigating us," Andrew said."You shouldn't be afraid of him. Whatever he does next, we have to pay him back. Especially if he dares to touch Caroline, then his life will be in my

Flo sat beside Caroline politely. Perhaps, she had something to tell her?"Flo, what's wrong with you, do you want to tell me?" Caroline held one of Flo's hands."Miss Caroline, do you have any love feelings for Mr. Charles?" asked Flo suddenly.She immediately smiled to herself when Flo talked about Ben. Caroline was still confused about her feelings. Could it be because they often meet and are close to each other can foster feelings of love? Flo was still waiting for an answer from her."If you do have feelings for Mr. Charles, I beg you not to hurt his feelings. Because Mr. Charles loves you very much. This is the first time I have seen him so interested and feel so comfortable with a woman and dare to risk anything for you," Flo replied in front of Caroline.She was speechless and just listened to Flo's words. Ben would do anything for her, even sacrifice his life. However, she did not want to rush to answer."I'm the only one Ben loves, is that it?" Caroline's eyebrows rose."Yes

Victoria greeted Johan and was surprised to see his bloody face. She immediately helped to treat her son's wound."Johan, why are you like this? You look so horrible! Did you fight with someone?" Victoria asked Johan and told him to sit down.Johan did not immediately answer his mother's question. He just walked to the sofa and complained of pain. Victoria quickly took the first aid kit box from the small cupboard in the corner of the room and returned with hasty steps."Yes, I fought with Ben and Andrew." Johan endured the pain and Victoria helped him to treat his wounds."Who were they?" asked a curious Victoria as she cleaned the cuts on Johan's face."Ben is Caroline's lover and Andrew is his subordinate."Hearing Caroline's name spoken by Johan, made Victoria stop to apply antiseptic medicine on her son's skin. Her eyes were wide and furious. Her gaze was fixed on Johan."So, it's all because of that woman?" asked a furious Victoria.Johan nodded, then looked at his mother's face

The front door was broken down by Johan's subordinates, making the atmosphere in the house even more tense. He came here to give Ben a punishment for daring to defy him. By taking Caroline hostage, Ben could do nothing and surrender without a fight."Who are they?" asked Flo in a trembling voice, she was terrified to see several people trying to break down the door.Ben's remaining subordinates inside tried to fight off Johan's well-trained men. The sound of banging doors was getting louder, making Flo panic even more and immediately went upstairs to call Ben. Flo's hands trembled as she gripped the banister. Johan and his subordinates managed to get into the house. They attacked each other. However, Johan's subordinates managed to stop Ben's subordinates by using tranquilizer dart guns."Mr. Charles, wake up, sir, it's an emergency!" Flo shouted and knocked loudly on Ben's bedroom door.However, there was no response from inside the room. The sound of footsteps approaching from below

Jolina walked gracefully, mingling among the guests with her tray in hand. Dressed in a black and white waitress uniform, she looked like the original staff of the event. On the tray, two glasses of champagne glittered in the light of a crystal chandelier. One of them had been laced with sleeping pills as per Sophia's orders.Jolina's eyes fell on Ben who was chatting with a business associate, while Caroline stayed by his side, gently holding his arm. Jolina approached and flashed a professional smile as she stopped in front of them and handed them the champagne.Ben and Caroline were not the least bit suspicious. Jolina looked like a normal waitress, her professional smile showing no signs of ulterior motives. Caroline stared at the champagne in her hand for a moment before lifting it slowly. Ben did the same.Jolina remained standing near them, ostensibly waiting to make sure her task was successful. Within seconds, if Ben took a sip of the champagne, the sleeping pills would kick

"Mr. Charles, are you sure you want to attend the event tonight?" asked Andrew, who was worried about his employer's health."Take it easy. I'm already fine. Besides, tonight I will be guarded by some of my confidants, including you." Ben looked at Andrew with confidence, even though his body was still recovering.Shortly after, Caroline came down the stairs with a dark blue dress wrapped around her body. It was made of soft satin fabric that followed her curves gracefully, without being overdone. The off-shoulder cut of the dress revealed her delicate shoulders.Her long, soft brown hair was styled in a simple yet elegant half-up style. A few strands of hair were allowed to fall to frame her face, giving a soft and natural impression. The look in her eyes was deeper, radiating anxiety that she couldn't completely hide. Although her makeup was light, just a touch of light blush and a nude color on her lips, her beauty still shone through charmingly.On her wrist, there was a small dia

Johan sat in his room with a glass of bourbon in hand. His mind was filled with strategy, but also a little uneasy. Sophia was cunning, but she wasn't someone who could be trusted. He knew full well that she always played to her interests.However, this plan made sense. If Caroline believed that Ben had betrayed her, she would be devastated. The trauma of her past would drag her back into the darkness and by then, Johan would be there, looking like the only option she could rely on. And Johan would also apologize to Caroline, inviting her to rebuild the household.He sighed and put down his glass. Shortly after, his cell phone vibrated. A message came in from Sophia and he read it slowly.[The gala event is tomorrow night at the Grand Royale. Ben will probably come along with Caroline. We'll see how everything falls apart.]Johan grinned slightly. So this was the event she was referring to. A big charity gala, where top businessmen gather. It was no surprise that Ben would attend, as

Finally, Johan was willing to work together to get Caroline and Ben to split up. Sophia poured the white wine into her glass before taking a small sip. Her gaze flirted with Johan."At least you can still think logically, Johan. The bottom line is simple. Caroline and Ben should split up. And you can get back what is rightfully yours."Johan narrowed his eyes, his expression cold. He knew Sophia was not the type of woman to speak aimlessly. She had something to hide. Sophia chuckled as she twirled her wine glass with her fingertips."What's your plan?""I have access to someone who can make Ben look like an unfaithful man in Caroline's eyes. We just need to devise a scenario that's convincing enough. As if I'm not involved in this plan," Sophia explained to Johan.Johan was quite interested in this plan and they would not do it halfway. Sophia knew that Ben was a man who was quite loyal when he felt comfortable with a woman. Therefore, she had to be clever with this plan."I have some

"I didn't expect a man as great as you to be lying helpless like this," Sophia said with a faint grin.Ben tried to calm Caroline down by slightly pressing his fingers in the grip, then looked at Sophia with a cold gaze. Sophia burned with jealousy when Ben treated Caroline intimately."Ben, we're not done yet!""We're done!" Ben raised his voice in front of Sophia.This made Caroline even more worried about Ben's health. She looked at Sophia and was about to kick her out for interfering with Ben's recovery."I don't know you and have never met you before. I want you out of this room immediately, because Ben needs rest. And your coming here is only disturbing his peace." Caroline ventured to speak in Sophia's presence."A hag like you wants to kick me out?" Sophia laughed loudly and belittled Caroline."You have no right to speak to Miss Caroline like that." Flo, who had been silent, finally spoke up because she knew Sophia."I won't let anyone belittle Caroline in front of me," Ben s

"What do you mean, why did Andrew get hurt?" Ben tried to sit up while holding his aching chest.Caroline grabbed Ben's shoulders frantically, preventing him from moving further. She shook her head and didn't allow Ben to sit up."Ben, don't! The doctor said you need to rest," Caroline said anxiously."Flo, tell me what happened to Andrew." Ben urged Flo to tell the truth.He ignored the pain in his chest. His eyes stared intently at Flo. However, Flo still hadn't answered his question and was still crying. Caroline was silent as if her mind rejected what she had just heard."There was... an explosion," Flo replied sobbing. "Andrew was affected. I don't know how bad he is yet, but-""Where is he now?" Ben cut Flo off, his voice sharper despite his weakened body."He was rushed to another hospital along with Glenn," Flo said in a shaky voice."Glenn was hurt too?" Ben asked.Flo just nodded. Ben wanted to leave the hospital quickly, but Caroline wouldn't let him. Ben clenched his hands

Ben?"Caroline leaned closer to Ben. She grasped her lover's hand tightly. Ben's eyelids slowly began to move, then opened slightly. His vision was blurry, but as soon as he saw Caroline's crying figure beside him, he tried to smile even though his lips were dry and pale. Caroline's tears flowed again, but this time it wasn't out of sadness, but joy."Ben, you finally realized." Caroline's grip on his hand tightened."Mr. Charles, you're finally awake." Flo smiled and felt happiness.Ben blinked but was still weak. He could feel Caroline's tight grip, filled with worry and love. With what strength he had left, he tried to move his fingers, returning Caroline's hand."Are you crying because of me?" asked a weakly spoken Ben with a faint smile."I was afraid of losing you." Caroline sobbed then lowered her head and nodded towards Ben.Ben looked at her gently and saw that there was a bandage wrapped around Caroline's head. Although the pain still ruled his body, he wanted to wipe Caroli

Alexander Morena was talking to one of his subordinates who informed him that Ben had been in an accident. That meant his plan had worked. Not only was Ben hurt, but Caroline was too.Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Alexander immediately froze when he saw his daughter walk in. He made a hand signal for his subordinate to leave his room. Sophia's gaze was full of suspicion towards her father."My father, what else are you doing?" Sophia asked.Alexander leaned his back against the chair, his face calm again, as if nothing had happened. He glanced at Sophia who stood up."What do you mean, Sophia? I don't know what you mean." Alexander was evasive when asked by his daughter."I'm not a child anymore. I know that expression. You're hiding something." Sophia's eyes narrowed sharply.Alexander just laughed as his daughter suspected him. Sophia frowned, getting more and more curious about what her father was doing. It made her wonder."You're too suspicious, dear. This is just busi

Andrew stood at the edge of the hospital bed, looking down at Ben who was still lying weakly with his head bandaged. The cut on his forehead was deep, but more worrying was the injury to his chest from the violent impact of the accident. An IV was attached to his arm, while a monitor beeped at a steady rhythm.In the next room, Caroline was still not fully conscious. The wound on her temple had been cleaned and bandaged, but her face still looked pale. The doctor said that Caroline was in severe shock and exhausted after last night's incident. Seeing Ben and Caroline in this state stirred up a rage that was difficult for him to control.He stepped out of Ben's hospital room and closed the door slowly. Outside, a well-built man in a black suit was waiting for him. The man's name was Glenn, just like Andrew who worked for Ben."How is Mr. Charles doing in there?" Glenn asked."Stable, but unconscious. Did you find out who was behind this attack?" Andrew looked at Glenn with an intense g
