Warren's words enlightened Bennett, and in a moment, he suddenly figured out a lot of things that he
had been unable to understand.
For example, that thing happened on that night four years ago. The inexplicable night he had with
Catalina!
"Warren, in that case..."
Bennett smiled faintly and said while looking at him, "It may be the case of diamond cut diamond
between you and my mom."
"The case of diamond cut diamond?"
Warren shook his head and said, "You look too high on me. It seems that you somewhat have already
figured out what happened four years ago. Yes, I admit. It was I who sent you to Catalina's bed four
years ago. I know your mother's efforts, so how can I disappoint her? Didn't she want to split you two
up? As your brother, I am naturally very happy to help you two be together."
"If you just wanted to help us be together, I really should thank you for that, but it's a pity that... Warren,
wasn't it the same for you to kill two birds with one stone when you schemed against Lina and me at
first? On the one hand, you could not marry Lina, and you could also make the relationship between
Lina and me closer, leaving my mother even more helpless against me and her. On the other hand,
once the news that the heir to the Shaffer family slept with his own sister-in-law before the wedding, I,
Bennett Shaffer, would certainly be criticized by the public. As the impact of public opinion could be
powerful, in order to maintain the reputation of the Shaffer family as well as its market, I could only give
up the right to inherit the Shaffer family, and you, Warren, could only accept the right to inherit the
Shaffer family even though you were sick. Warren, your plan was really a good one! However, no one
had expected that you would meet Claire halfway to succeed, and you didn't expect that you would
suddenly fall ill and become a vegetable! In fact, your coma and your crippled legs have nothing to do
with Catalina at all! She is only a pawn of you and my mother all along, and she is also the most
innocent person in this game! You and my mother both knew she was innocent, but you let her suffer
so much pain and remorse for so many years without any reason..."
Bennett snorted, "At last, you are just the same as my mom!"
Warren shook his head lightly but didn't say anything.
He didn't argue for it.
But he knew well that he was different from Carolyn.
If it was not forced by Carolyn, he would not have come to this point now.
Warren said with his hands resting on his senseless legs, "Ben, in my heart, you have always been a
brother who deserves to be protected with my life, but..."
His eyebrows twitched slightly. It seemed that he felt a sudden bitterness, but it was quickly withheld.
He became calm as before and said, "Although you didn't mean to do harm to me, I get hurt because of
you. So, it is fair for me to ask you to repay the debt!"
Warren clenched his fists.
Bennett turned around, looked down at Warren in the wheelchair, and said with a smile, "I am afraid
that this is only one of the reasons, and the other reason is that I am the most important person to my
mom. As the saying goes, when facing an opponent, you have to go for the jugular. Now you are
against me just because you want to tell my mom that all her efforts for many years are all in vain!
Warren, you did so by doing harm to your opponents both physically and mentally. Your plan is really
not bad at all."
Bennett closed his eyes and said, "Let Catalina go! I'll give you whatever you want."
Because Bennett knew that he was the only one who could end this fight, and he was the only one who
could let them be completely relieved.
For the fight lasting so many years, he had been stuck between them and felt worse than anyone else.
If he could end it all himself, why not?
Warren looked at his leg for a long time and then said, "What if I don't want to do so?"
Bennett froze for a moment and then lowered his eyebrows, "That won't be up to you."
Sensing that the cell phone in his clothes vibrated a few times, he knew that the plan of Darnell and
Vincent had been successful.
Suddenly, the person following Warren lowered his head and reported in his ear.
Warren looked worse and worse and finally shouted, "What!"
He was so anxious that he almost stood up.
Bennett suddenly looked compassionate, "Warren, once a person has a soft underbelly, he will become
vulnerable, but at the same time, he will also be particularly strong. I will send Bai Tan to prison in
person, as for you... Warren, I will send you abroad to recuperate from your injuries. In the end, I have
to thank you. With you kidnapping Catalina, I can fight back openly and honestly. Warren, you lost."
Warren suddenly became agitated, "I didn't! Bennett, I didn't expect you to be so calculating! You!"
He was so anxious that he spat out a mouthful of blood on his chest, and he gradually became
unconscious.
Bennett sighed deeply, "Warren, goodbye forever."
Instantly.
Sirens were loud outside, and eye-catching lights were flickering behind Bennett.
Warren finally closed his eyes, raised his chin slightly, and tilted his head high.
He was silent with tears on the verge of his eyes.
But in the end, the tears only wet his eyelashes but didn't stream down his face.

During these two years, as Catalina worked actively and diligently with a serious attitude, when the
deputy editor-in-chief left to give birth to a child, she naturally took up the vacant position and became
the most competent assistant to the editor-in-chief Felix.
She was no longer indecisive at work, and she became decisive and skillful now.
In the words of Emery, she now looked like a strong and competent woman.
In May, the acacia flowers were in bloom.
The golden sunlight shone on the ground through the dappled leaves, and the ground was filled with
flower clusters, as if it was covered with a thick layer of goose feathers.
It was probably the most beautiful and comfortable season of the year.
Bennett held Catalina's hand and walked on the path in the countryside.
A grand wedding was held on a path through the woods where acacia flowers flew all over the sky.
The guests were all present.
Catalina dressed in a white veil and carried a bouquet made of acacia flowers. With the wedding
march, she walked step by step towards the man in the white suit under the hundred-year-old acacia Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
tree with her hands holding her uncle's hand.
Bennett stood under the acacia tree, waiting for her expectantly.
The distance between the two was very short and it was only about twenty meters.
But the two felt like they had traveled a lifetime so long.
They met each other when they were young, then they studied together, quarreling and fighting, and
they finally grew up with each other.
The year when they were eighteen years old was a watershed in their relationship.
They had been hurt and separated. Although they had been hoaxed by fate, they still managed to get
together in the end for their persistence.
During these years, they shed a lot of tears in both bitterness and joy. Until this moment, all of them
were turned into tears of happiness.
Catalina had just started to approach him, but Bennett had already extended his hand to her at a
distance.
Catalina walked over quickly and put her hand into his palm.
Bennett gripped it hard.
Then, they clasped their hands tightly.
When the two hands clasped tightly, Bennett's eyes became moist.
They had experienced too much, and only they could truly appreciate the bitterness and sweetness
involved.
Bennett pulled Catalina over to hold her in his arms, hugging her tightly.
Afterward, the guests under the stage responded with thunderous applause.
In front of the witnesses, they made a vow, kissed, and exchanged rings...
Bennett put the wedding ring on Catalina's ring finger and said, "From now on, for the rest of my life, I
will be your man!"
Catalina couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard this.
Fortunately, they did not have a microphone on them. Otherwise, he would be made fun of if other
people heard this kind of words from him.
Catalina put the ring on for Bennett and gently responded to him, "Me too!"
After Bennett finished, he pulled her over and couldn't help but kiss her deeply in front of all the guests.
The golden sunlight shed on the ground through the leaves, and the dappled lights fell on the two of
them, as if they had been covered with a warm golden veil.......
Their eyes glistened with golden gleams, and the happy faces of them were reflected in each other's
eyes.
Another five years of time passed.
When Catalina returned to Sophora Villa with her baby in her arms, she somehow had the feeling of
returning to her hometown after many years of absence.
"Lina."
As soon as Jared saw Catalina, he rushed over excitedly and hugged her legs.
Catalina was knocked back a step by this little guy.
"You brat!"
Bennett hurriedly pulled his son away from Catalina's legs and picked him up, "You almost knocked
your mom over."
"Wow."
As soon as the little boy was picked up, he saw Ruby in Catalina's arms, and at once, his big round
eyes glowed with joy, "Sister seems to be a porcelain doll."
It was not the first time that Jared saw his own sister, but this time was different from before. Before, he
could only see Ruby in the incubator from afar through the glass room, and it was the first time that he
had seen her so closely.
Jared liked her so much that he couldn't help but reach out and touch Ruby's cheeks.
Children of this age like Jared were too young, and they had no idea how heavily they touched.
However, this little boy was careful when he touched his sister, treating her as a porcelain doll for
fearing that he might accidentally hurt her.
When the little boy touched Ruby's little face, he retracted his hand in surprise, and exclaimed happily,
"My sister's face is like a cotton swab!"
His astonished and delighted look amused the adults.
Bennett said to the little boy in his arms, "From now on, your sister will be under your protection, okay?"
"Of course!"
Jared said with his chest straightened, "I'll be a little man from now on, and I'll definitely protect my
sister."
Catalina couldn't help but praise him, "Jared is a good boy."
In Catalina's arms, Ruby also giggled.
When she giggled, there were two small dimples on both sides of her mouth, looking really lovely.
Looking at his daughter's smile, Catalina and Bennett both felt heart-warming.
Parents probably did not want anything in their lives but the safety and well-being of their children!
