Chapter 293 Come To My House Tonight
As if compelled by something, Joseph asked, “Does she regret it?”
“Does she regret it? Yes, she does! She regrets everything immensely. She cried for days, her heart
and mind consumed by thoughts of you!” Emily rambled, simultaneously offering a silent apology to
Chloe.
Although Chloe had not explicitly expressed her regret to Emily, she could sense Chloe’s genuine
concern for the relationship. Hence, Emily felt it was time for her to step forward and
take matters into her own hands.
“But what good is her regret now? It holds no significance,” Joseph retorted, his voice dripping with
sarcasm.
Emily blinked. “Then go and talk to her. Win her back.”
His face sank and he ignored her. ‘Talk to her? Win her back? What nonsense. On what basis does she
assume that I can’t live without that dumbo?”
Emily watched as the Rolls-Royce vanished into a swirling cloud of dust, leaving behind a lingering
question mark in her mind.
What did that mean? Did her efforts have any effect?
Regardless of the efficacy of her endeavors, she had done everything within her power at this point.
Whatever happens next rested solely in their hands.
Once Chloe finished reviewing the financial reports at the Johnsons’ office, she returned home with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBenjamin. After spending the night there, she woke up the next day to the warm embrace of sunlight
streaming through the window, feeling rejuvenated and invigorated.
As she made her way to the dining room to get herself a glass of juice, she noticed something was
wrong with Benjamin. His face was twisted in pain and he was crouched on the floor, seemingly
searching for something underneath the wine display cabinet.
When Benjamin caught sight of Chloe, he gestured toward himself and then pointed beneath the
cabinet, struggling to speak. “The…The medicine… It fell…under…”
It was only now Chloe remembered that Benjamin suffered from severe asthma and relied on
medication to manage his condition as it could pose a threat to his life if left unattended.
“I see,” Chloe responded in a detached tone as she placed the juice on the table. She knelt down and
reached her arm under the cabinet, attempting to retrieve the medicine. After a few futile attempts, she
came up empty-handed.
By this point, Benjamin was drenched in cold sweat, gasping for breath, and unable to utter a
3/3
word. Chloe tried again but to no avail. Helplessly, she shrugged. “It seems the medicine may be too
far inside for me to reach. Do you have any spare medication?”
Gasping for breath, Benjamin mustered all his remaining energy to weakly raise his hand and point
toward the upstairs bedroom, using simple gestures to convey his message. Every ounce of strength
within him was expended in that single act.
Chloe nodded, her slender legs taking a few steps forward when a thought suddenly struck her and she
paused. She turned back and gazed at Benjamin. “Am I the only one who can save you now?”
Benjamin could no longer speak, but the intense desire to survive blazed in his eyes.
With deliberate steps, Chloe walked back to Benjamin, her figure towering above him. She observed
the shock that was etched across his face, her gaze unwavering. Her voice, now chillingly cold, pierced
through the air as she spoke, “Wasn’t my mother in a similar situation before she passed away?”
Benjamin’s pupils dilated, a mixture of shock, panic, and fear cascading over his features.
“My mother begged desperately, but you intentionally ignored her pleas. How desperate she must have
been to cling to life. What did she do to deserve what she got? You were her legal husband, and what
you did verges on deliberate murder!” Chloe’s words sliced through the air, laden with anger and
accusation. She shut her eyes tightly, unable to conceal her seething hatred as her voice quivered.
“Today, you shall experience the same torment.”
Summoning his last ounce of strength, Benjamin clutched onto her ankle, his face flushed, hist eyes
pleading for forgiveness and brimming with the desperate desire to survive.
Chloe called Karen and placed the phone in front of him. “You can ask Karen for help. If she’s willing to
save you, I’ll immediately go upstairs and get the medicine for you.
Unfortunately, Karen did not pick up.
Benjamin struggled to catch his breath, his face contorted with anguish. Deep down, he regretted it all.
When he discovered that Ava was not his biological daughter, he was filled with remorse. He had
hoped to make amends with Chloe, clinging to the belief that he still had a chance. Little did he know
that Chloe had long been aware of the truth.
In despair, darkness enveloped Benjamin and he passed out.
Chloe wiped away the tears that welled up in the corners of her eyes and dialed emergency services.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThough she desired revenge against Benjamin, she had no intention of violating xo.com fast
updatethe law in her pursuit.
For now, she had a more important task at hand.
After sending Benjamin to the hospital, she would inevitably have to report the incident to the police.
With so many years having passed, the evidence was surely long gone. The only witness who could
render Benjamin powerless was Wren.
However, one hurdle remained. Joseph was the one who had discovered Wren had and Chloe lacked
any means to contact her. To locate Wren, she would first need to find Joseph.
The thought of their shattered relationship caused a headache to gnaw at Chloe’s mind. With no other
choice, she mustered the courage to dial the man’s number.
“Can you hand over Wren to me? I’m planning to report what happened to the police.” In a distant yet
polite manner, she conveyed her plea.
The man responded slovenly, his voice tinged with arrogance, “Beg me.”
“Please…” Chloe said reluctantly.
‘What a despicable bastard!”
“You call that begging?”
Chloe pursed her lips. “Then what do you want in return?”
There was a three-second pause on the other end before he replied, “Come to my house and serve me
tonight.”
Chloe assumed that he meant by “serve” was cooking for him, taking care of Toto, or handling some
household chores. Without much thought, she readily agreed.
“Go and make the report now and send me the hospital address. I’ll bring Wren to you,” he sai
