In the tense hush that gripped the room, Mr. Chen maintained a steadfast silence, his lips pressed together in a resolute refusal to speak.

The executives broke down completely, their cries filling the room with an overwhelming wave of despair and anguish.

Seinna stood frozen, her gaze locked onto Benjamin's face from an unexpectedly close distance. Her hazel eyes, still wide with the remnants of surprise and relief, now scrutinized his features with a mixture of curiosity and intrigue.Benjamin's face, though not conventionally handsome in the classical sense, exuded a commanding presence that seized Seinna's attention. His square jawline conveyed determination, while his piercing eyes held a depth that hinted at a complex inner world. His brows, furrowed slightly in concern, added a hint of intensity to his otherwise composed demeanor.What struck Seinna most was Benjamin's charisma—an intangible quality that radiated from him effortlessly.

Sharp-eyed Jack's gaze pierced towards Sienna, his eyes betraying the complex swirl of emotions in his heart. A sharp pang of jealousy and disappointment churned within him, their intensity threatening to breach the calm facade he struggled to maintain. Despite his efforts to appear composed, the tumultuous waves of emotion inside him were difficult to conceal.His gaze lingered on Sienna, grappling with conflicting feelings—prickling jealousy at her unwitting praise of Benjamin, disappointment in himself for feeling this way, and a deep-seated concern for their mission's integrity. Jack's jaw clenched slightly, his knuckles whitening as he fought to regain control over his turbulent emotions.A flicker of vulnerability flashed across Jack's features before he steadied himself, forcing a neutral expression.

Benjamin remained silent, unmoved to say a single word to Sienna, who was gazing at him with hopeful eyes. The odd look Benjamin gave her made Sienna freeze, unable to hide her confusion behind her gaze.Suddenly, Lebron appeared behind Ariana, bursting into laughter upon hearing Sienna's words. Lebron’s laughter filled the room, indicating that he was entertained by Sienna’s remarks. However, his laughter quickly turned into an expression of disgust as he looked at Sienna with disbelief."Ugh, you... rude and disrespectful, and even worse, you're overconfident," said Lebron with a tone full of disgust. His piercing gaze reflected his disapproval of Sienna’s attitude, which he found both disrespectful and overly confident.Lebron, with undeniable doubt, questioned Sienna's ability to lead the company. To him, Sienna’s experience as an idol was insufficient to prove that she had the necessary qualifications in the business world. Lebron dismissed Sienna’s profession as an idol, deeming
"Benjamin, can you move even slower? I mean, it's not like we're having dinner or anything. I'd rather watch the paint dry than wait for you to put the plates on the table!"As his mother-in-law said this, Benjamin looked at the clock on the wall. It was 19:00."Mom, we've got a whole hour before Diane gets back. I promise dinner will be good to go by then," Benjamin replied.Frank reacted, "Linda, my dear wife, where exactly did you find this completely worthless son-in-law? We just asked for a simple dinner, and he managed to turn it into a never-ending ordeal that lasted for over an hour!"Linda responded to her husband in annoyance, "Why are you throwing that question my way? Diane is the one who married this guy, you should be grilling her."Benjamin continued cooking, not feeling the need to listen to all the ramblings.For five years, he had been trained to face this every day. He was already used to it.Not long after, the door opened, and Diane walked in with a tired face.Ho
Benjamin nodded in acknowledgment. "Lebron, it's great to see you again after all these years. Your loyalty still means the world to me."The burly man hunched his back even more, tears that were never seen running down the rough surface of his cheeks."Young Master Frost, I could never betray you. Even if you asked me to wait for a thousand years, I'd do it willingly," Lebron vowed.Benjamin inquired, "And what about the others?""Just like me, Young Master. They are still loyal."Benjamin nodded his head, then immediately gave the order, "If everyone is still loyal, take me to the Frost Mansion in this city."Lebron felt a bit puzzled as Benjamin bypassed the larger and more luxurious mansion in Aristo Heights, inherited from his father. However, as an obedient personal bodyguard, he didn't dare question his young master. "Yes, Young Master Frost. I'll escort you to the branch mansion in Regal Hill. Please follow me."A luxurious limousine pulled up behind Lebron's black SUV. Severa
Benjamin arrived at WellCare Hospital on time in a cheap sedan car owned by one of his attendants.After getting the room number occupied by Mr. Morgan, Benjamin took his suitcase of medical equipment and went straight there.Opening the room door, Benjamin was immediately greeted by Valerie."Benjamin, you finally came."Looking Valerie up and down, Benjamin was stunned.Just like what the people said, Valerie's beauty already beat the angels in the ninth heaven.The girl's skin was as white as milk and as smooth as porcelain. Even mosquitoes would slip if they tried to land on her skin.Her curves were exquisite, like an ancient flower vase molded by a master.Her fingers were slender, long, and supple. Her eyes were ethereal and menacing at the same time. And, her lips would make anyone curious to taste them."Ben?""Oh."Valerie's call managed to wake Benjamin up from his reverie."I can totally help your grandpa get better," Benjamin said, holding up his suitcase. "But first, I g
