The next day, after waking up, Benjamin found his thoughts drifting back to Cordelia. His mind was filled with concern for her well-being, knowing that her family was in Denmark and her uncle had a reputation for not being a good person. Cordelia had left her family and her past behind, seeking freedom and a new life.Benjamin lay in his bed, his mind racing. He couldn't shake the feeling that Cordelia might be facing some sort of danger or trouble in Denmark. He remembered how she had taken care of him, being there for him when he needed it most. Now, he felt a strong responsibility to do the same for her."I'll have to do anything and get to Denmark after I heal to look for her. I must protect and care for her like she did for me," Benjamin said to himself, his resolve firming up. He knew he had to regain his strength quickly so he could set out to find Cordelia and make sure she was safe.Then he heard a knock on the door and then heard his mother's voice calling out, "Are you awak
"You mean your girlfriend? Ms. Cordelia?" the doctor asked, confirming who Benjamin was referring to. "She's a nice lady, very caring. She brought you here worried and stayed with you throughout the night. She was the one who did your daily feeding, body cleaning, and teeth brushing too. She also donated blood to you when you needed it most."Benjamin's eyes widened in shock. "She did all that?" he asked, unable to believe how much Cordelia had done for him.The doctor nodded. "Yes, Master Benjamin. She has been very devoted to your care. It's clear she cares about you a great deal. You are lucky to have someone like her by your side.”Benjamin was astonished by the doctor's words and felt a mix of gratitude and concern."Where has she been for the past two days, then?" Benjamin asked, worried about Cordelia's absence.The doctor shrugged slightly. "I'm not sure, Master Benjamin. I'm only aware of her absence these past two days. Perhaps you should ask your mother; she might have more
Feeling a sense of relief and hope, Benjamin released his head and took a moment to steady himself. He smiled warmly at the memory of Cordelia's love and concern. With newfound strength, he got up and walked confidently toward the door, reaching out and opening it.As Benjamin opened the door, he was met with the sight of a bodyguard standing just outside. The bodyguard's expression shifted from shock to concern as he saw Benjamin standing there, free of all medical connections."Master!" the bodyguard exclaimed, clearly taken aback by the sight of Benjamin out of bed and moving around on his own.Benjamin swallowed hard and looked around, noticing people passing by in the hospital corridor. He focused his gaze on the bodyguard and said firmly, "Let me out.”The bodyguard hesitated and then said, "Master, let me call a doctor first. How did you disconnect everything yourself? You shouldn't be out of bed. It's not safe."Benjamin shook his head, insisting on leaving. "No, I need to go.
The first thing she saw was a neatly folded paper. Her heart raced as she picked it up and opened it, revealing her mother's handwriting. As she read the note, tears welled up in her eyes."To my sweet little girl on her 18th birthday,Mom has a special gift for you. This is a two-paired necklace that I got for you in Iceland. Hang it around your neck, my daughter. I got one for you, and daddy got one for you. We love you, baby girl.Love,Mom"Cordelia's tears fell on the paper as she read her mother's loving words. "I love you, Mom and Dad," she whispered, placing the paper down with care.She turned her attention back to the box and found the two necklaces inside. They were beautifully crafted, each featuring a unique design. One necklace had a heart-shaped pendant with a keyhole, while the other had a matching heart-shaped pendant with a small key. When the key was inserted into the keyhole, the two pendants would fit perfectly together, symbolizing a special bond.Both necklaces h
As Cordelia looked through the old photographs, she couldn't help but be overcome with a mix of emotions. Memories she had thought lost forever came rushing back as she studied each picture."Look at this one!" she exclaimed, holding up a photo of herself as a young girl blowing out the candles on her birthday cake, surrounded by her parents and the butler. "I remember this day! I was so excited about that cake—Mom made it herself. We were so happy that day.”She picked up another photo, this one showing her and her father playing in the backyard. "I forgot how much fun we used to have together," she said, a bittersweet smile on her face. "He would chase me around for hours."Cordelia's voice softened as she picked up a picture of her mother teaching her how to cook in the kitchen. "Mom was always so patient with me. She taught me how to make her special dishes.”As she continued to look through the photos, she pointed out several that included the butler alongside her parents and her
The butler chuckled softly at Cordelia's question. "Oh, you know I have business to take care of. Shouldn't I look dashing?" he responded, a playful twinkle in his eye.Cordelia stepped forward and wrapped her arms around him in a warm hug. "Oh, my grandpa, you look so fashionable! Don't tell me you've gotten one grandma you're seeing," she teased, her eyes sparkling with humor.The butler chuckled and gently patted her back. "Stop playing," he said with a smile. "I have something for you. Let's go to my place.”"Really? Oh, is it the surprise you talked about?" Cordelia asked, her excitement evident."Yes, it is," the butler confirmed, nodding.Cordelia nodded enthusiastically and slipped on her slippers, preparing to follow him. She locked her door behind her and then followed him down the stairsSoon they got to Butler place and he opened the door and they entered the quarters. Once they entered the butler's quarters, Cordelia took in the modest surroundings. The space was a single
Raymond was stunned by her reaction and tried to stop her. "Cordelia, wait!" he called out, reaching out toward her.Cordelia turned on him with a fierce glare. "If you touch me, you'll regret it," she warned, her tone full of anger and determination. Raymond froze, taken aback by her strong response.Cordelia walked away from the restaurant, leaving Raymond standing there in disbelief. Once she was outside, she quickly took out her phone and called her butler, asking for a car to come and pick her up. She sent her live location to ensure the driver knew exactly where to find her.Raymond, still taken aback by Cordelia's strong reaction, quickly got up from his seat and followed her outside. He called out her name as he hurried after her, trying to catch up. "Cordelia, wait! Please, let's talk about this!" he pleaded, hoping to stop her from leaving.As they stepped outside the restaurant, Raymond continued to plead with her. "You don't have to go. Please, let me explain," he said. "
As the waitress walked away, Raymond shifted in his seat to face Cordelia more directly. He leaned forward slightly, trying to catch her eye."So, what do you think about the tour today?" he asked, a hint of anticipation in his voice. "Did you enjoy the boat ride? I thought you might like it, especially with the beautiful views of the city.”Cordelia nodded politely. "It was nice," she said, keeping her responses short.Raymond smiled and continued, "I thought it would be a great way to show you around. The city has changed so much since you last left, and there are so many places to see."Cordelia nodded again, though she seemed less enthusiastic about continuing the conversation.Raymond noticed her reserved demeanor and tried a different approach. "So, what's been your favorite part of the trip so far?" he asked, hoping to engage her more.Cordelia paused for a moment before answering. "The boat ride was nice," she said, her tone neutral. "And the city has definitely changed a lot.
Cordelia, seeing that she had no choice, followed him and got out of the car as well. They entered the large mall, and though Cordelia was initially reluctant, she eventually embraced the shopping experience.Together, they bought a variety of items, including clothing, accessories, and other gifts. As they moved through the mall, Raymond's excitement seemed to be infectious, and Cordelia began to enjoy the process.After they finished their shopping trip, they returned to the car, their hands full of shopping bags. In the car, Raymond sighed and said, "I brought you shopping to buy things for you, but you paid for your own things."Cordelia nodded and said, "Sorry, but I wouldn't want you to buy things for me when there's nothing between us. It's not a big deal.""Nothing between us? At least are we not friends?" he asked.Cordelia looked out the window and responded, "Can you please keep driving?”Raymond nodded, a little annoyed, and continued to drive, leaving the conversation ha
