Chapter 144: Past and Present
After being reborn, she had thought more than once about whether she should properly teach this man in front of her a lot, to be and the unbearable pain as well. However, in this life, Benjamin had not had the chance to harm her or do anything out of line
So, she could only hide her time.
"Why?" Benjamin's brow furrowed slightly, his eyes showing a puzzled look.
But Charlotte couldn't be bothered to continue the conversation with him. Suddenly, she moved her wrist and swiftly shock off Pers
enjamin was caught off guard, only able to watch Charlotte break free from his restraints and disappear from his sight without looking back.
He didn't go after her.
Charlotte really disliked him now.
He had to figure out a way to reduce Charlotte's hostility towards him.
Then, he also descended the mountain.
Back to the Harper family's villa.
The spacious house felt incredibly empty, appearing desolate and cold.
After the death of his mother, his father had not remarried.
The entire Harper family only had Benjamin as the sole child, making it seem sparsely populated.
Compared to other prosperous aristocratic families, the Harper family was somewhat of an anomaly.
Benjamin returned to his own room.
In his mind, the recent scene continued to replay.
Charlotte...
He silently whispered her name, a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
For some reason, he suddenly felt a bit dizzy and lightheaded. Benjamín rubbed his temples, half-leaning against the headboard, and unknowingly drifted off to sleep. He began to dream again.
And once again, he dreamt of Charlotte.
In his dream, he held a syringe and drew a full vial of blood from Charlotte, who had become painfully thin.
She was crying, begging him not to do it....
But he heartlessly proceeded.
He handed the drawn blood to a doctor, urging him to transfuse it to Eleanor as soon as possible...
"Mr Harper, the young lady's condition is gradually declining," another doctor approached and said solemnly to Benjamin.
He was the doctor specifically monitoring Charlotte's health.
Although Benjamin treated Charlotte as a blood bag for Eleanor, he didn't wish for Charlotte to die.
Hence, he had assigned a dedicated doctor to monitor Charlotte's physical well-being.

Upon hearing this, a fierce furrow creased Benjamin's brow. "Didn't you say there wouldn't be any problems? How could the situation suddenly turn bad?"
The doctor lowered their gaze, looking somewhat uncomfortable. "Her body has been injected with various drugs, coupled with the intense blood extraction Mr. Harper, it's best to make arrangements for her soon." Benjamin, however, grabbed the doctor's collar, rage suddenly flaring in his previously calm eyes. "What did you say?"
He didn't know why he was so angry.
Charlotte was merely Eleanor's blood bag.
A blood bag he shouldn't have to care about whether she lived or died...
t when the doctor mentioned "making arrangements," he couldn't restrain his anger.
"Mr. Harper, it's best to cremate her quickly. It will reduce her suffering, and there won't be any traces left..." The doctor protected their neck with both hands, speaking nervously.
"You!" A sharp, chilling light flickered in Benjamin's deep eyes.
His thin lips pressed tightly together, and he didn't utter another word.
After a while, Benjamin released his grip on the doctor's collar.
His fist clenched tightly, his expression appearing calm but also like he was suppressing something.
It was like a lion teetering on the edge of rage, as if it might go into a frenzy in the next moment.
"Let's do as you said..." Finally, Benjamin spoke.
It seemed he had made up his mind, trembling lips forming the words with great difficulty.
"Yes." The doctor nodded respectfully and then turned to leave.
Benjamin glanced at Charlotte's room, hesitated for a moment, then walked straight towards it.
He wanted to take one last look at Charlotte.
"Benj..." At that moment, Eleanor's soft and gentle voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Benjamin couldn't help but turn around.
Eleanor was wearing a loose hospital gown, looking pale and fragile, resembling a delicate porcelain doll.
are you out?" he furrowed his brow slightly, his tone carrying a hint of reproach, "Shouldn't you be resting in bed?"
Seeing him heading towards Charlotte's room, Eleanor couldn't help but admonish, "Benj, are you really going to marry Charlotte?"
She had heard Benjamin say more than once that he would marry Charlotte...
Although she knew these were lies to placate Charlotte, what if Benjamin took it seriously?
Benjamin paused at her words, his gaze freezing.
Marry Charlotte?
Previously, he had never considered marrying Charlotte. He had only said those words to entice Charlotte to willingly save Eleanor.
But during this time, he had slowly changed his mind.
In reality, marrying Charlotte wasn't an impossible idea.
It could even be his way of making amends!
After all, Charlotte had ended up like this for the sake of Eleanor.
Chapter 144: Past and Present
Unfortunately, she was dying...
Thinking of this, Benjamin's expression suddenly turned cold and intense, his features incredibly sharp and frightening.
Seeing Benjamin remain silent, Eleanor became increasingly anxious.
She bit her lip, and tears immediately streamed down her face.
Her complexion drastically worsened, becoming even paler and weaker.
Witnessing this, Benjamin couldn't help but panic. Ile hurriedly explained, "No. Eleanor, I will only marry you. The sweet words I said to her were merely to make her willingly donate blood to you...." Hearing him say this, Eleanor's complexion slightly improved.
Then, she continued, "But she looks like she's about to die..."
When Benjamin heard the word "die," it felt like a needle pricked his heart, spreading a wave of subtle pain.
He forcefully concealed his abnormal emotions and feigned indifference. "If she dies, I'll find you another useful blood bag. We can easily dispose of
this one..."
Seeing Benjamin's heartlessness towards Charlotte, Eleanor finally felt relieved.
She knew Benjamin only liked her.
And he detested Charlotte.
That Charlotte always clung to Brother Benj like sticky candy...
Now, she was finally going to be out of the picture!
Benjamin escorted Eleanor back to her room and stayed by her bedside for a while.
Until
Sudden intense flames erupted from the opposite room.
Benjamin abruptly stood up from his chair.
It was Charlotte's room!
In an almost instant reaction, the man dashed out of the room.
Across the courtyard, he reached the door.
The fiery glow illuminated Benjamin's reddened eyes.
He clenched his fists, veins popping out.
The doctor who had just set the fire turned around and saw Benjamin suddenly appear, giving him quite a fright.
"Who allowed you to set the fire?" Benjamin squinted, a mix of icy coldness and intense anger in his eyes, distorting his handsome features.
"Mr. Harper, you clearly agreed..." The doctor was too frightened to argue, stammering in response.
"Did I tell you to set the fire immediately?"
"Did I tell you to hastily cremate her like this?"
"She hasn't taken her last breath..."
And he hadn't seen her for the last time!
Benjamin, resembling a frantic and enraged madman, suddenly charged towards Charlotte's room.
