The Abandoned Wife Chapter 34
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

Caroline finally realized that Ben was taking her to a grand building that was very exclusive. On the front lawn, various luxury cars were lined up neatly and formally dressed men and women were seen entering the building elegantly."Ben, where is this?" Caroline looked at Ben with a questioning gaze."It's a big gathering of elite businessmen. I have to attend this event, and they require the invitees to bring a partner." Ben smiled gently and took Caroline's hand after they got out of the car.Caroline looked up at the building with mixed feelings. She was not used to attending big events like this, let alone being surrounded by influential people who were there. However, she didn't want to disappoint Ben who had done something precious for her today."I want you to accompany me. But more than that, I want the world to know that you are an important person in my life." Ben continued to hold Caroline's hand and many people were staring at them.Caroline felt a little bad for being th

Her eyes narrowed as she saw how Ben whispered something in Caroline's ear, making the woman smile embarrassedly. The sight made her chest feel tight. She felt jealous seeing Ben coming with another woman.Benjamin Charles, the man who was once so close to her now stood in the crowd with another woman. Not just an ordinary woman, but someone precious enough that Ben was willing to bring her to an event of this magnitude."It should have been me, Ben. Not her," Sophia said in a soft voice.She noticed how Caroline looked a little awkward, but still stood by Ben's side with confidence. How Ben always made sure that Caroline was comfortable, protecting her with a gentleness that he rarely showed to anyone.Instantly, Sophia felt something sharp pierce her heart. Seeing Ben with Caroline, she realized something much more painful, Benjamin had completely forgotten her."Wait a minute." Sophia squinted her eyes, scrutinizing the woman more closely. Something was bothering her mind.Then, sh

"Everyone here likes you so much. Look at the way they look at you." Ben turned to Caroline.Ben had never brought a woman to a big event like this. Caroline was the first woman he had invited. And those who looked at him were immediately surprised to have a beautiful woman next to him.Caroline's appearance at this time was indeed very beautiful. With a dress that is elegant and so suitable for her body. He pulled Caroline closer, then lowered his face and gently kissed her lips.Caroline widened her eyes. Her heart beat so fast as if it wanted to jump out of her chest. She froze in place, not knowing how to react to Ben. Getting a kiss from Ben while being in such a crowded place made her feel awkward."I want everyone to know that you are the woman who means the most to me," Ben whispered warmly in Caroline's ear.Ben continued to kiss Caroline's lips again. This time the kiss deepened. Ben's hands never left her hips so that the grip was even tighter. Finally, Caroline was swept a

After a few hours filled with laughter, warm conversation, and clinking champagne glasses, the event finally came to an end. The guests began to say goodbye one by one, leaving the hall with satisfied faces and light steps. So did Ben and Caroline as they made their way to the exit.Caroline sighed softly, trying to keep a smile on her face even though her body was starting to feel tired. Her feet were aching and she was walking in high heels. She tried to ignore it, but each step felt heavier and Ben was watching her every step."Do your feet hurt?" asked Ben as he glanced at the high heels Caroline was still wearing."Just a little." Caroline smiled faintly and didn't want to complain about this to Ben.Ben stopped walking and bent down to look at Caroline's foot. Everyone here was still staring at them in amazement."Ben, stand up, my leg doesn't hurt that bad," Caroline said while holding Ben's shoulder."Then there's no need to exert yourself." Ben lifted Caroline in a bridal-sty

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

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

The Abandoned Wife Chapter 72
Arriving at Ben's house, Caroline got out of the car with slow steps. Andrew said nothing, just bowed and let her enter alone. Caroline opened the door. The warm air from inside the house immediately greeted her. Ben stood in the middle of the living room, still wearing a white shirt with the top open and the sleeves rolled up to the elbows. His face turned instantly at the sound of the door. Their eyes met. "Caroline ...." Ben's voice sounded soft and went straight to Caroline.Caroline did not answer. She just walked slowly towards Ben, without saying anything and hugged him tightly. Her hands grasped the back of Ben's shirt as if she was trying to reconcile herself.Ben hugged her tighter. He didn't ask any questions. He knew Caroline needed space, but also needed that hug to lean on."I gave him the divorce papers," Caroline said."You're amazing. I'm proud of you.""I don't want to live in Johan's shadow anymore. I've ended everything." Caroline took a deep breath.Ben rubbed C

Arriving at the hidden lake, Andrew parked the car under a large tree. The sound of gurgling water was serene. There was no one around. Just nature and peace."I'll stand guard nearby. Take as much time as you need, Miss." Andrew opened the door for Caroline and let her down.Caroline nodded and walked slowly towards the lake. She sat on a wooden bench overlooking the water. The breeze brushed her face, bringing the calm she needed right now.The fear had not completely gone. Johan's figure was still alive in her mind, like a shadow that refused to go away. Johan's words earlier said that she was unhappy with Ben. However, the situation was just the opposite.'Am I as unhappy as Johan said?' The thought came to Caroline.'Ben loves me. I know that. He gives me space and gives me security. But why does the shadow of the past still entangle me like an invisible chain? Do I still have feelings for Johan deep down?'Tears began to roll down her cheeks. She hated herself for still feeling

Caroline wanted to go out for a while and get some fresh air outside. However, she couldn't go alone because Ben had assigned Andrew to always stand guard beside Caroline."Mr. Charles has given me the job of looking after you, taking you wherever you need to go. Just mention it, Miss." Caroline smiled slightly, although in her heart there was a slight sense of uneasiness at being watched. But she knew this was not about mistrust. It was about protection. And Ben, as always, knew how important safety was to her."I'd like to go to the park near the square," Caroline said softly."Yes, Miss. I'll take you two blocks, then we'll walk from there so as not to be too conspicuous. The car is ready."Caroline just nodded slowly, then went back inside for a moment. She picked up a thin gray scarf and a small bag from the table by the door. When she came back out, Andrew was already standing there opening the car door for her.The drive to the park was silent, and cozy in the quiet of the mor

After a long night with Ben, Caroline is still in his arms. She had given him everything, not just her body, but also her heart and her trust. Behind the warmth of their touching skin, there was a meaningful silence."Do you regret it?" Ben whispered in Caroline's ear."No." Caroline shook her head softly."Then I'll make sure you never regret choosing me." Ben kissed her forehead warmly.Caroline smiled, her eyes still closed as she buried her face into Ben's warm chest. Her fingers traced Ben's skin as if memorizing every inch of the man's body that was now a place to lean on. Ben caressed Caroline's bare back with a gentle touch.They were silent for a moment, letting each other's heartbeats do the talking. The room was filled with traces of love that had not completely disappeared from the air. Their sweat had dried up, but the warmth still lingered between the bodies that were no longer separated.Ben looked at Caroline's face resting on his chest. Gently, he brushed away the few

"Don't let her die now. I want her to live," Sophia ordered her subordinates.Jolina was already unconscious. The smell of blood wafted through the room. Her subordinates standing in the corner of the room just looked down. He knew very well that when Sophia wanted something, there was no room for error. Especially when Sophia said she still wanted Jolina's life, it was not mercy. Rather, it was a long unfinished threat."Take her to a safe place. Make sure she gets treatment, but keep an eye on her. I don't want anyone to find out about this matter too soon." Sophia gave orders to her subordinates.***The dim light from the lamp hung from the ceiling of the underground hospital room. There was no sound other than the slow beating of the heartbeat monitor.Jolina's body lay weakly on the iron bed, a white blanket covering her wounded body. Her face was pale with bandages wrapped around her head and abdomen. IVs pierced the backs of her hands and oxygen was attached to her nose. She w

Jolina was chained to a metal chair in the center of the room. Her hands and feet were immobilized. Her clothes were stained with blood and a masked man approached, circling her slowly. Suddenly the door opened slowly. Sophia stepped in, her dress so elegant and her gaze so coldly fixed on Jolina. She stopped right in front of Jolina who was still limp. Her eyes narrowed sharply as she looked at the face that had always smiled confidently it looked fragile, helpless."Get up bitch!"A hard slap landed on Jolina's cheek. That brought Jolina to her senses, opening her eyes slowly. Then she was shocked to be in a place like this and surrounded by Sophia's subordinates."Let go of me!" said Jolina.Jolina began to come to her senses. Fear spread quickly as she felt the cold iron on her wrists and how she couldn't move her body at all. "You met Glenn earlier, right? You must have spilled the beans!" Sophia scooped Jolina's face roughly."I didn't say anything," she whispered weakly."Don

Glenn stepped out of the living room with a flat face, but his eyes conveyed restrained annoyance. His steps were quick and he headed for the backyard. The cool night air greeted him, but not enough to ease the emotions that were beginning to warm up in his chest.In his hand was a full bottle of champagne - a bottle he took without saying a word. Andrew was lounging on a wooden chair, legs crossed, enjoying the evening as if nothing in the world mattered. When he heard Glenn's footsteps approaching, he turned his head and grinned."You don't seem to be in a good mood." Andrew raised an eyebrow."Mr. Charles and Miss Caroline were making fun of me," Glenn muttered as he sipped his drink slowly."You know he didn't mean any harm. It was his way of showing familiarity." Andrew laughed softly as he tapped Glenn on the shoulder. "Come on, Glenn. They're just joking."Glenn just glanced at him sharply, placing the champagne bottle on the small table. Then they got to talking."I just don't

Ben's reaction was very different from the others. There was no shock on his face, no sudden burst of anger. He just stared at Jolina with eyes that remained calm, as if the name had long been in his mind."You're not surprised?" Caroline turned to Ben."No, I'm not. I expected it from the beginning. This must be Sophia's game." Ben took a slow breath before letting it out, his eyes remaining focused on Jolina."You have five minutes, Jolina. Tell Mr. Charles and Miss Caroline everything." Glenn continued to press Jolina."Sophia told me to make sure your relationship with Caroline was fractured. She thinks if Caroline feels insecure with you, she will stay away from you." Jolina bit her lip, her eyes glancing at Caroline for a moment before returning her gaze to Ben."Sophia wants me to leave Ben?" Caroline clenched her hands at her sides."I'm just following her orders." Jolina looked down for a moment.Ben sighed, then glanced at Caroline who still looked angry. His hand reached ou

In the warm living room, Caroline sat comfortably on the sofa and leaned against Ben who sat beside her. The hot tea on the table had cooled slightly, forgotten as they were too engrossed in enjoying each other's company.Ben shifted his body a little closer, his hand coming up to tuck a strand of Caroline's hair behind her ear. The gesture was gentle, and caring, making Caroline look up at him with slightly sparkling eyes. They had both returned from Ben's apartment."You look beautiful tonight," Ben whispered into Caroline's ear."You say that as if I wasn't beautiful the other nights." Caroline blushed, a small smile etched on her face.Ben chuckled, then gently touched her chin, lifting Caroline's face to be level with his. Caroline looked intensely into Ben's eyes."You're always beautiful, but tonight... I feel like you look happier."Caroline was silent for a moment, feeling the warmth that Ben always gave her. She knew that this man always cared about her, not just physically,
