“Benjamin, are you awake? There’s an early meeting this morning, so I’m going to the office first. You can drive there later. I’ve told my secretary Clara to help you change your outfit. I don’t want my bodyguard to look shabby like last time, so please pay attention.”Upon waking and going to the kitchen, Benjamin heard Isabella’s voice speaking to him. Moreover, she seemed to be in a hurry. Seeing the food on the table, he didn’t think much about it and sat down to eat his share. However, when he recalled Isabella’s last words before leaving, his expression showed a hint of annoyance.“What’s wrong with my outfit from last time? It was still quite new!”Mumbling a few words of dissatisfaction, Benjamin’s actions were nonetheless very proficient. In less than two minutes, he finished breakfast consisting of bread, sausages, fried eggs, and beef without leaving a trace of leftovers.Descending the stairs, Isabella’s younger sister couldn’t help but reveal her displeasure at seeing Benj
The store employee then giggled once more and asked,“Do you two want to purchase anything else? In addition to clothes, our store also sells leather shoes and accessories. If you spend over ten million, our store can offer a discount and a free pair of socks...”Hearing the employee’s continuous chatter, Benjamin wanted to pay and leave quickly. However, Isabella felt that more than merely buying a suit was needed. So, after listening to the employee’s recommendations, she decided to buy some additional accessories. Moreover, since Benjamin was still wearing sandals, she insisted he replaces them with shiny leather shoes.As they paid and left the store, the cheerful voice of the store employee could still be heard behind them.“Please remember to come back and support our store next time!”Seeing Benjamin standing dumbfounded in front of the car, Isabella suddenly teased him.“What’s the matter? Can’t bear to part with the money?”Hearing her question, Benjamin shook his head and re
“Hey, what are you up to? Wait for me to come along!”Benjamin couldn’t help but feel anxious as he saw Isabella suddenly heading straight towards Radley, who was surrounded by a crowd of people. He quickly sped up to catch up with her.“Apologies, everyone. Today, Mr. Radley will only entertain guests with invitations. As for the rest of you, please forgive us for any inconvenience. Our host will make arrangements for you later during the event. We will have a chance to chat in a future gathering.”Seeing the crowd pushing towards them, Radley’s bodyguards hurriedly shouted and moved all the guests out. Only a few guests were allowed to stay and engage in conversation with Radley.Isabella couldn’t help but frown at the situation, as she hadn’t received an invitation. However, just as she was disappointed and unsure how to handle the situation, Beckham and Heulwen approached, smiling toward Radley.“Hello, Mr. Radley. Allow me to introduce ourselves. This is my fiancé, the son of the
As soon as Tiger’s words were spoken, all the guests in the hall were surprised, looking at Beckham and Radley constantly. However, Radley quickly regained his composure, patted Tiger’s shoulder, and laughed out loud.“Mr. Tiger, you know how to joke. The past is just because I was young and impulsive, and as a businessman, I can’t compare it with the secretary. Am I right, Beckham?”This time, everyone’s gaze once again focused on Beckham. However, compared to Radley, Beckham’s expression was much worse. After all, he had no idea about the past between Radley and his father. At this moment, when Radley asked, Beckham felt a bit awkward. Fortunately, Heulwen reacted well, quickly grabbed Beckham’s arm, turned to Radley with a smile, and said.“Mr. Radley, can we put this matter aside for now? If all the guests have arrived, let’s go upstairs and talk together. I also have a lot to reminisce with you.”Radley’s attitude towards Heulwen was much better. After hearing her speak, he didn’
“And you said nothing happened? Seems to me your endurance is still quite poor!”After speaking, Benjamin ignored Tiger’s resentful gaze and slowly walked out of the corridor, then told leisurely.“I saved your life back then. That was my responsibility. As for the grudges among your gang, I don’t want to get involved. If you’re looking for my help, you’ve got the wrong person. I don’t want to get involved in this mess.”Leaving his final words for Tiger, Benjamin quickly walked out of the corridor and headed outside the hotel, where Isabella was waiting. Earlier, their business discussion had gone smoothly, so her mood had improved considerably.However, as soon as she saw Benjamin’s figure slowly approaching, the smile on her face disappeared instantly. Her gaze toward him was somewhat complicated.“Where have you been? I couldn’t find you.”After following Isabella and Radley to the VIP room, Benjamin was quickly pulled aside by Tiger for a chat. So Isabella couldn’t find him. Hear
"What's going on here?"At this moment, everyone was highly astonished. No one expected Panther to be injured. Moreover, Panther's knife had just been swung down. However, just as the blade was about a centimeter away from Bernie's body, Panther suddenly clutched his arm and screamed in pain. His knife fell to the ground, and his expression showed sheer terror."Who? Who hit me from behind?"Despite feeling terrified, Panther tried to maintain his composure in front of his subordinates, holding his arm while scanning the area and yelling loudly.Clap! Clap! Clap!In response to Panther's furious roar, a round of sarcastic applause rang out. Everyone's eyes immediately turned to the source of the sound, and both Panther and his followers were dumbfounded to see Benjamin slowly approaching."Not bad, not bad at all! You're still standing after being hit by my concealed weapon. That's quite impressive!"As he spoke, Benjamin dragged the bloody, gasping bald man towards Panther and his gr
"Shameless!"Seeing Benjamin's move, the female assassin cursed under her breath. The members of the Panther gang were even more furious. No one thought Benjamin would resort to such a despicable technique when facing a woman."Hmph, shameless or not, as long as I can defeat you, that's enough!"Benjamin ignored the female assassin's cursing and the angry stares of the Panther gang. After all, he didn't have suitable weapons, and the female assassin's skills were not weak. So, Benjamin wouldn't hesitate to use any available tactics to bring her down.Of course, while she cursed, Zale's movements didn't slow down. Just as Benjamin's legs aimed at her chest, Zale swung her two daggers, stabbing straight at Benjamin's knees.Silently exclaiming that this was bad, Benjamin again twisted his body mid-air, kicking Zale's daggers away. However, his attack was also missed.Spotting a weakness, the female assassin drew a thin sword from her waist, aiming for Benjamin's lower abdomen. If struck
The more Andrea spoke, the more agitated she became, causing team leader Gavin’s scalp to tingle. Fortunately, at that moment, a middle-aged man with the rank of colonel on his shoulder entered swiftly from outside. He barely glanced at Benjamin and his people, then focused on Andrea.“Comrade Andrea, your family just called and asked you to come home for a while. Your superiors have approved a month’s leave for you. If you have no matters to hand over, you can finish work now.”Seeing the colonel approaching, Andrea’s expression did not soften. On the contrary, she became even more furious, slamming her hand on the table and shouting.“Why? Why do you have to do this? Those bastards truly deserve to die. I want them all to pay for the mistakes they’ve made. I want an investigation, and I want those wretches brought to justice.”At this point, the city’s public security bureau chief couldn’t help but frown. However, his attitude towards Andrea remained gentle.“Andrea, the chief has d
