Chapter 36 Holding Her Hand
“Forget it.”
Michael did not want to make trouble. He was the richest man in Winter Town now, so he valued his reputation and did not want to make a fool of himself in public.
Gail guessed. “That wicked girl is pretty. Maybe it is because Dr. Robinson wants to pursue her that he defended her. No wonder his attitude toward us is so unfriendly. He must be influenced by her!”
“Stop talking nonsense! Let’s go in to see Mom.”
“I wonder when she will wake up. I’ve asked my lawyer to draw up her last will. I will not feel relieved until she signs her name to leave all her property to us.”
“Keep your voice down!”
Michael turned to glare at her and said, “Walls have ears!”
Gail hurriedly covered her mouth and closed the ward door.
Isabella didn’t know their purpose for coming, so she said to Bennett behind her, “I still have something else to do. Please go to do your work.”
“The medical report of Old Madam Brown…”
“You don’t need to share it with me if there are no special
Suddenly. Bennett noticed the man waiting in front. He had crisp short hair and a slender figure, exuding a dignified aura.
Why was Benjamin here?
Isabella seemed to have gotten close to him since saving Old Mr. Mason.
Seeing them. Benjamin cast a glance at Bennett and soon turned to look at Isabella as if he didn’t take the former seriously. Then, he softly asked, “Is there anything wrong?”
“No.”
“You can tell me if you got in trouble. I’ll handle it.”
When Isabella raised her eyes and saw his serious face, she lightly said, “Nothing. I met two dogs. I want to go in to see Grandpa.”
“OK.”
Benjamin stared after her until she entered the ward. Then, he raised his eyes to look at Bennett not far away.
Bennett didn’t know whether he should say hello. After all, even his grandfather was in awe of Benjamin.
When he was hesitating. Benjamin withdrew his gaze and followed Isabella into the ward.
“Don’t hesitate to tell Benjamin if anyone makes trouble for you. He will handle it! If you are not satisfied, you can talk to me! I will back you!”
Isabella said with her clear eyes flashing with a bright light, “Okay.”
When she was about to leave, Old Mr. Mason was reluctant to part with her and repeatedly reminded her, saying, “I will be discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow. Don’t forget to come to see me off.”
“I promise I will come.”
After leaving the hospital, Isabella asked about Old Mrs. Mason’s condition.
Benjamin replied in a deep voice, “It’s a brain injury. She can spontaneously breathe and blink but has turned into a vegetable.”
In short, she was like a living plant.
Isabella understood it. She had dealt with a difficult case a long time ago. The patient had also become a vegetable due to severe brain damage. Although she had cured him, she had used a lot of rare medicines, and some had been from illegal areas outside the border. All in all, the treatment had been very troublesome and difficult.
“What about we have dinner together?”
Isabella looked at the time. When she was about to say her parents were waiting for her at home, Benjamin took out his phone and

made a call.
“Uncle Brown, this is Benjamin.”
“Isa and I will cat out tonight.”
“Okay, I will take care of her.”
Seeing him quickly hang up the phone, Isabella was speechless. because she had not said yes yet.
“What would you like to cat?”
Benjamin opened the car door and motioned for her to get in.
Isabella was speechless.
“French cuisine?”
Isabella remained silent.
“Japanese cuisine?”
Seeing her not reply, he asked. “Would you like to eat something else?”
“I’m fine with everything.”
Isabella stepped into the car with her long legs, no longer thinking about this matter.
When Benjamin got into the car, he saw her reaching out to take off the necklace. So, he subconsciously grabbed her hand.
When his big hand suddenly wrapped her small hand. Isabella was stunned for a moment, looked at him, and explained, “I can’t keep

“You have the qualification to wear it.”
Benjamin looked into her eyes and said word by word, “I know you are young and have never thought about getting married. It’s okay. There’s no rush.”
Isabella thought such an expensive jewel was much too eye-catching on her neck. Anyone who had heard of this necklace knew what it meant! Only the granddaughter-in-law of the Mason family could wear it!
Seeing her still want to take it off, Benjamin retreated to advance, saying, “Can you wear it for the sake of my grandpa? He will be discharged from the hospital two days later. And he will be sad to see you not wearing it.”
Isabella was wavered by his words. As soon as her hand left the necklace, he held it with a serious face. It felt so soft and tender that he didn’t want to let go.
Isabella couldn’t break free, so she could only say, “Let go.”
After Benjamin’s big hand wrapped her little hand, he didn’t intend to let go at all. Instead, he calmly looked ahead and said, “Lend it to me for a while.”
Isabella was speechless, thinking he was impolite.
He suddenly asked, “Are you familiar with Bennett?”
She was confused to hear his question.
Green was driving. He had not expected Mr. Mason and Ms.
Young’s relationship to develop so fast. Therefore, he was so excited
It was a pity that the road tonight was smooth. If it were rough, it would have made the car jolt and sent Ms. Young into Mr. Mason’s arms as last time.
Isabella lightly said, “I have several dealings with him.”
Bennett had refused to accept the fact that she surpassed his medical skills. After being defeated a few times, he obediently bowed his head and surrendered.
“Do you prefer men who study medicine?”
Isabella was dumbfounded to hear his words, while Green almost failed to hold back his laughter. Although Mr. Mason had said he was not jealous, he had asked such a jealous question. What a jealous man!
“What do you mean?”
Isabella didn’t understand it. Seeing the serious look in his eyes, she instantly realized what he meant and said, “Yes, I prefer men who study medicine. When we are free, we can communicate in medicine and learn from each other.”
Benjamin subconsciously tightened his grip on her hand and jealously said. “Isn’t it tiring to talk about medicine twenty-four hours a day?”
“No. I will not feel tired when talking about the topics I am interested in. Besides, we can make progress together through communication.”
Seeing her raise her eyebrows. Benjamin knew she was teasing him. and couldn’t help smiling.
He knew she did it on purpose but felt sweet as if a bowl of sugar water had been knocked over in his heart. And the sweet feeling was spreading.
Green suddenly said, “Mr. Mason, we are arriving at Star Restaurant!”
He looked in the rearview mirror and added. “Ms. Young, this is Mr. Mason’s favorite restaurant. And he has never brought any girl here!”
Isabella became interested and asked. “Do you mean he has taken girls to other places?”
“No. of course not.”
The sharp-eyed restaurant manager spotted them before Green stopped the car. And he instantly ran out to greet them in person, saying, “Mr. Mason, long time no see. This is…”
