Pregnant With Twins: My CEO’s Tricky Love

Benton stood quietly and did not speak for a long time.

Elsie was not sure what Benton was thinking now. She was very sure that Benton was wavering because of her words, so Elsie thought for a while and spoke again.

"I know you are hesitating right now. You are worried that speaking up about these things will hurt your family and your parents who love you. But your dad brought you here because he considered all the possibilities. Besides, we are not on our own. My plan to escape by myself back then obviously wasn't appropriate. I want to save them, but it won't work with just the two of us. There are a lot more people I can rely on now. You know that those people are powerful, but the people who have my back are also powerful. They aren't much less powerful and may even be more powerful. It's just that we need enough evidence to capture them in one fell swoop. I hope that you join us."

Benton was silent again for a long time. Finally, he turned his head and looked at Elsie seriously.

"Chase—Lawson—and—Millie—Lawson—both bullied—me..."

This was the first time that Benton spoke. He hasn't spoken for too long. What he said popped out word by word. Even his voice sounded very dry and hoarse.

Elsie was suddenly excited and hugged Benton tightly in her arms.

"We've both been bullied by him. I should've understood from a long ago that you can speak... Then do you know the truth about the fire back then? I know you left a few days before the fire, but I think maybe you vaguely know why."

"...Before I left, a person named Sean Poole often came to the orphanage. At that time, this person was in his thirties. He was perverted and cruel. Many children were injured because of him. There was even a girl who I wasn't close to that became sick and passed away after she went to his place once. After my father took me away, I wanted to go back to see them. At that time, I planned to go on the weekend. However, after I arrived that day, the guards outside the orphanage didn't let me enter. They said that Sean was inside, and no one was allowed to enter. Later I learned that there was a fire that night. After that, I never talked again."

Benton stuttered. After all, he has not spoken for many years. Although he spoke clearly now, his voice sounded hoarse and uncomfortable.

After Elsie listened to him finish his words, she helped Benton sit down on the sofa.

"So he's named Sean Poole. When I left, this person wasn't there yet. Don't worry, our meetings with you and your dad are all kept secret. You just need to tell us everything you know. I'll have someone investigate the rest of it. I'll take you to see him the day he is punished. The wheels of justice turn slowly but grind exceedingly fine. The malefactor will not escape from receiving his full punishment."

"The way you are… it's nice…"

Benton watched Elsie say such words. There were a lot of things he did not know how to talk about. He was very envious of Elsie because she was still lively as if she was not traumatized. This was what he envied the most.

Although he was only about twenty years old, he felt dead inside like a corpse. If it weren't for Elsie's words that ignited hope in his heart.

Benton thought that he would probably live like a walking dead for the rest of his life. He would not hesitate to leave this world the day his parents pass away because there was nothing in this world that he loved. Other than his parents who worked hard to find him and take him home. They were his only reason for living.

But now it was different. He seemed to have found hope and a reason to live. He wanted those evil people to receive punishment. He did not want children to live a life as hopeless as his, just like those children who had similar experiences as he had.

Elsie talked about her experiences again with Benton. Benton rarely spoke but listened intently most of the time. He was a good listener.
