The Abandoned Wife Chapter 28
~ Three days laterCaroline had returned home from the hospital and security at home was very tight. Ben deliberately installed additional security systems such as motion and sound sensors around his house to identify suspicious movements or sounds from outside. Not only that, Ben increased the number of professional subordinates. Some of them were former military members or experienced martial arts experts to keep his house safe. "Ben, are you overreacting to this?" asked Caroline as she leaned against the back of the bed."No, I'm not. I would do anything for the safety of this house and you, Caroline. I don't want it to happen again and cost you your life." Ben's hand went to the top of Caroline's head and gently stroked her hair.Caroline smiled sweetly at Ben and felt so protected. Since Johan had caused her harm, there was no chance for him to be present in her life. After she recovered, she would file for divorce from Johan."Ben, I want to sue Johan for divorce immediately. I

Caroline was still not very well at the moment but forced herself to meet with the lawyer. She wanted to free herself from Johan and declare her relationship an official divorce as soon as possible. Ben was still holding her body firmly. Ben looked so anxious beside her."Caroline, let's just go home now." Ben invited Caroline to head home."Is this business done, Ben?" Caroline asked."Yes, Mrs. Margareth. This business is over. You'd better go home and have a good rest at home," said Markus.Before Caroline could reply, her body wavered slightly. Within seconds, Ben grabbed her and lifted her bridal style."Ben put me down. I can still walk," Caroline's voice weakened slightly."No, you've pushed yourself enough today," Ben replied uncompromisingly. He led Caroline out of the courthouse, said goodbye to Markus, and then got her into the car.In the car, Ben carefully leaned Caroline into the seat and buckled her seatbelt. His hand briefly touched her cheek, his eyes searching Caroli

Ben slept through the night with Caroline. The woman in his arms was fast asleep. It was nice to see that beautiful face up close like this. Caroline's breath felt so warm on his face.This was the first time he felt so much love for a woman. The woman he found almost died on the side of the road at that time. Finding her in a weak, helpless, and almost hopeless state. But now, in his arms, Caroline looked peaceful. The wounds of the past still left their mark, but he knew that this woman was much stronger than she looked.Caroline who had made his days more colorful. He tightened his embrace as if to make sure that Caroline was really by his side. This moment felt so precious, like something he didn't want to let go of."I will always be by your side and protect you at all times," Ben whispered in Caroline's ear.The love he felt for Caroline was not just a momentary attraction. It was a deeper feeling, more real and something he never thought would happen in his life. Ben closed his

Just as things are getting heated between Ben and Caroline, Flo arrives with warm milk and enters the room without permission. Flo saw them kissing passionately. Caroline reflexively pushed Ben's chest quickly and Ben swiftly stepped back a little away. Both of them were still a little out of breath when they turned to the door and found Flo there."Miss Caroline, I'm ...." Flo looked down and felt embarrassed.Her eyes widened when she saw Caroline's slightly flushed face and Ben's slightly wet lips. She immediately realized that she had just interrupted something that should not be seen."Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Caroline, Mr. Charles. I didn't know that-" Flo hurriedly turned around, her face as red as Caroline's. "I... I just wanted to deliver some warm milk. I didn't see anything."Caroline covered her face with both hands and felt embarrassed. Meanwhile, Ben just chuckled. He tried to hold back his laughter at the awkward reaction of the two women in this room."Flo, next time knock

The look on Johan's face was so serious after saying his words. However, it made Victoria very surprised and unhappy to hear it. She approached her son, Johan, and tried to persuade him."Johan, are you out of your mind? Do you want to take Caroline away from another man?" Victoria asked with a snort."She is still my wife. Mom, don't forget that.""Your wife?" Victoria mocked her son. "Johan, listen to me carefully. Caroline is gone. She's no longer yours and you shouldn't lower yourself like this for a woman who doesn't even want to see you anymore."Johan clenched his fists tightly. His jaw hardened. He did not like what his mother was saying. Then, he looked up and locked eyes with Victoria."I don't care what she wants. I'll get her back to me, one way or another." Johan said firmly."And you think Benjamin Charles will keep quiet? That man is not a random person, Johan. He will destroy you if you try to take Caroline away from him." Victoria shook her head and continued to insti

Johan sat in one corner of the exclusive lounge. His fingers tapped lightly on the surface of his untouched whiskey glass. This place had been chosen by Victoria to arrange a meeting with a woman named Sophia, whom he had never met. Although Johan knew this was just another way to control him.Suddenly, a woman in a blood-red dress stopped in front of him and smiled sweetly. He didn't need an introduction to know who she was, as Victoria had already told him.Sophia Morena was her name, sitting down without waiting to be invited and crossing her legs elegantly. Johan raised an eyebrow, sipping his whiskey slowly."I heard you were looking for a new wife," Sophia said without preamble.As soon as Sophia spoke, Johan's gaze fell on his mother. He could only shake his head. Sophia followed Johan's gaze. Victoria was still here."And I'm interested in that." Sophia's eyes flirted with Johan."Interested in what?" Johan asked with a chuckle."Maybe we can make this night a little more fun,

Sophia stood in the doorway and her gaze was fixed on Johan. She stepped in uninvited and closed the door behind her. That successfully made Johan give her a sharp look."What are you doing here?" asked a frowning Johan.Sophia even dared to enter Victoria's room like this. Johan wanted to kick her out of here, but Sophia was acting seductively towards him."Am I not allowed here, hmm?" Sophia leaned in slightly, close enough to Johan to smell her perfume."I'm not interested in your games, Sophia. Get away from me right now!" Johan's expression remained cold."Not interested?" Sophia touched Johan's shoulder with a seductive hand gesture."I don't have time to deal with you!" Johan dismissed Sophia's hand quickly."Oh, Johan... You're too serious. I just wanted to have a little chat with you. There's no harm in it, right?" Sophia was not at all offended by Johan's attitude, but instead felt even more curious.She walked over to the sofa and sat down, crossing her legs gracefully. Her

"Good morning Miss Caroline." Flo greeted Caroline who had just woken up."Good morning, Flo." Caroline smiled widely and stretched her muscles after sleeping."Did you sleep well last night?" asked Flo in a warm tone as she pulled back the window blinds, letting the morning sunlight into the room."Yes, I slept quite well."Then, Flo clapped her hands twice. Caroline was surprised to see several maids coming into her room carrying luxurious items. There were shoes, branded bags, diamond jewelry, and dresses that looked very elegant and expensive. Caroline stared at the items with dilated eyes, feeling a little overwhelmed by the luxury that suddenly appeared before her."Mr. Charles asked me to prepare this for you. He wanted to make sure you looked beautiful today." Flo smiled gently at Caroline.Flo told her friends to come closer to Caroline. Caroline looked at the items once more, then let out a long sigh. She could not refuse Ben's offer."This is too much ...." she muttered as

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
