NovelEnglishMy Dad Please C342 Chapter 342 "I think I saw sherbs outside. I'll go gather some. You should rest here," Wendy said as she packed up the medical kit and headed out.
She had scoped out the area when she arrived. There were herbs she could collect that might help her with her plan-something to make Alec forget what had happened.
Wendy crouched down to pick the herbs, but she heard footsteps approaching from behind. She turned to find Benny following her.
Benny had cafter her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWendy was surprised. "Why are you following me? You've lost a lot of blood. Go rest." Benny stood tall, looking down at Wendy's delicate face. Even in the plain clothes of a village woman, her beauty was undeniable. "I'll stay with you. I'm afraid there might be another Alec." Wendy's lips curled into a genuine smile. "I'm divorced from Stanley now. Even if something happens with another man, it won't be cheating. You don't need to follow me." Benny pressed his lips together. "It's not about Stanley." Wendy glanced at him, studying Benny's handsface. As the only son of the Gondale family, he held power in Hovendale, living a life of luxury and ease. Now, though, he looked a little worse for wear-his leg and arm were injured, and his face was pale, but his good looks were still apparent.
Unlike Stanley, who had an air of aristocratic grace, Benny looked like he stepped out of a comic book, with his youthful charm.
Wendy was even more confused. If it wasn't because of Stanley, then why was he following her? "Wait... Is it because you care about me?"

"I was kidding. I knew you wouldn't care about me. Everyone knows you can't stand me. You only care about Jessica." Benny didn't respond.

Wendy didn't press further. Benny wasn't stupid, and she knew when to leave things unsaid.
Benny watched as she expertly gathered herbs, her movements so practiced that it almost seemed second nature. Unable to resist, he asked, "Do you know medicine?" Her skills seemed impressive-she'd been able to reset his bones after all.
Wendy nodded. "Yeah, Stanley sentto Clavendale University to study medicine. Have you forgotten?" Benny blinked. "Are you bragging?" "How's that bragging?" She was a genius, but she never said it out loud. That was why Stanley had sent her to Clavendale University.
Back then, Benny had thought about pursuing the genius freshman, but now he wondered if she had been laughing at him the whole time.
Benny had never been put in this position before. It was the first the had been outdone 2/3 Chapter 342 by a woman.
