Chapter 294 The Wounded Heart

Emmeline sat in Benjamin's Bentley. Her body was trembling as Benjamin removed his coat and draped her with it before encircling her in his arms. Emmeline sat in Benjamin's Bentley. Her body was trembling as Benjamin removed his coat and draped her with it before encircling her in his arms.

"Everything is behind us, Emma. You're fine now."

He kissed Emmeline's soft hair on top of her head.

The only places I could kiss Emmeline are probably here or on her forehead. The opportunities for me to kiss her forehead are so rare that they could be ignored.

Even if I tried to give her a brotherly blessing by kissing her forehead, Emmeline would dodge it. She not only avoided it but also reprimanded me. She would also kick and hit me, but every time it happened, I felt happy inside.

Benjamin felt bitter this time around. He could see that she was hurt and that her heart was broken. She must have observed Abel and Alana engaged in some activity.

If I tried to defend Abel at this point, Emmeline wouldn't accept it. Instead, she would become upset, believing I'm supporting Abel. She would think that it had only been a few days, but I had betrayed her and "sided" with Abel.

Although he had as much faith in Abel as he did in himself. Since Benjamin was well aware of Emmeline's psychological makeup, he had to console her rather than stand up for Abel.

Benjamin whispered gently, "We're going home now. It's all in the past. I'll be with you, along with the kids, Daisy, and Sam. We are a family, Emma, so don't be sad. You still have us." Emmeline squirmed in his arms and said, "Hmm.”

That's right, Daisy, Sam, the kids, Benjamin, and I are a family. We all came together from Adelmar Island in Reykjavík to Struyria. Benjamin arrived two or three years earlier than me. Emmeline sniffed and said, "It's all in the past; I'm not sad anymore."

Benjamin patted her and said, "We'll be at the cafe shortly. I would have taken you back to Glenbrook if I hadn't been worried that you might need the antidote. The kids are doing great there." Emmeline wiped her tears and said, “Let's pick them up. Now would be a good time for them to go to kindergarten."

Benjamin replied, "Alright. I'll send some bodyguards your way to keep you all safe."

Emmeline said, "Two is enough. A large number of them would make us a bigger target. Daisy and Sam are also here with us. My body will recover in a couple of days."

Benjamin kissed her hair again and concurred, "Alright. I'll comply with Ms. Louise's order."

"I need to buy a new phone, so you should make a U-turn right away."

Benjamin remembered that Emmeline's phone had been thrown into Swan Lake. Neither he nor Abel had the time to look for it.

Naturally, there was no need to search for it. They should look for her instead of wasting time looking for her phone. They always had the option to buy a new phone and get a new SIM card, but if something happened to her, there would be no making up for it.

"Let's go and buy you a phone."

"Let's go and buy you a phone."

Benjamin instructed the driver to turn around.

Soon the Bentley made its way to the city. Benjamin picked out a limited-edition phone worth over 30,000 dollars for Emmeline in the store. However, Emmeline chose one that was just over 3,000 dollars. Mr. Benjamin knew she did not want to show off, so he went along with her.

Emmeline obtained a new SIM card from the carrier service center located inside the store. Eric Carr, Benjamin's personal assistant, personally delivered the ID cards since they were required. Once everything was set up, they went back to the cafe. It was already noon.

Emmeline said to Benjamin, "You should go pick up the kids. I miss them too. I haven't seen them in days."

Benjamin asked, "Shouldn't you make the antidote? When the kids return, you won't be able to care for them because of how frail you appear to be right now."

Emmeline said, "It won't be a problem. I can cook for the kids first."

Benjamin was a little worried, and he said, "But your strength..."

Emmeline laughed, "How much strength did I need to cook? I'm not butchering a cow."

"Okay then, but you must be careful not to overdo it," Benjamin said, looking pitifully at her. "Hmm, I know," Emmeline nodded.

I always felt comfortable around this classy and refined man.
