"Maddie, what's wrong! Are you feeling unwell?" Benjamin gazed at Madeline with concern and extended his hand to feel her forehead.

Anticipating his intentions, she swiftly averted her face, avoiding his impending touch.

Nevertheless, her demeanor quickly reverted to its usual state

Saming on the couch, she regarded him with an air of detachment.

Benjamin was a handsome young man who excelled as a top student at a prestigious university.

They met while participating in a competition, and he soon caught Madeline's eyes as he stood out with his exceptional appearance, abilities, and commendable character.

Unlike peers of his age, Benjamin displayed remarkable composure and thoughtfulness.

His pursuit led the inexperienced Madeline to succumb swiftly, much like a sheltered ugly duckling encountering the world for the first time.

At one juncture, she regarded Benjamin as her sole source of salvation.

She held the belief that he was the sole individual who would love her unconditionally, even in the shadow of Winsler's influence.

However, she was a different person now. After representing numerous premium brands, Madeline swiftly recognized that he had bought her something of lower value. On the other hand, Winslet's gift was undoubtedly from the most prestigious luxury brand.

"You're incredibly considerate. You always prepare two gifts whenever you give me something, never overlooking Winslet."

Benjamin promptly countered, "Don't jump to conclusions. I intend simply for the two of you to have a harmonious relationship. This is just how I approach things "Is that so?"
