Everyone knew that Benjamin rarely asked for help from others. Once he did, the matter would be a challenging one. However, this was ideally suited to Venn's personality."It's not serious, but let's not discuss it now. Currently, I need you to help me contact Curtis. I have some matters to discuss with him.""What?!"Hearing Benjamin's sudden request, Venn was momentarily stunned. Immediately afterward, Benjamin noticed something was off, and his gaze became more focused as he looked at Venn."What's going on? What is Curtis doing and where is he now?""About that..."Faced with Benjamin's persistent questioning, Venn's expression became increasingly flustered. Nevertheless, Benjamin didn't press further. Instead, he suddenly changed the subject."Alright, let me know when you've contacted Curtis. I've changed my phone number, so give me yours, and I'll give you a missed call for you to save my number."Hearing this, Venn didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement. After leaving Venn's p
"Benjamin, are you alright?"Sitting in the room, Olivia noticed Benjamin looking somewhat lost as he entered from outside. She couldn't help but worry and looked at him.At that moment, Benjamin tried to muster what he thought was a natural smile and responded to Olivia."I'm fine, just feeling a bit unwell. It's late now, and you should rest. I want to go to my room and think for a while."Benjamin didn't linger and quickly walked into his bedroom.Olivia's gaze followed his retreating figure, her thoughts stirring. However, she didn't dwell on it any longer and slowly walked towards her bedroom next to Benjamin's."Ah..."Lying on his bed, Benjamin sighed and put his hands behind his head. In truth, Ximena didn't want him to be her real boyfriend, but only to help her act for class reunion tomorrow.Initially, Benjamin hadn't planned to agree. However, after listening to Ximena's persuasion, he reluctantly agreed to help her. But now, thinking back, he couldn't help but feel extrem
"Boss, are you there? Come outside for a bit, I need to see you."It was past midnight, and Benjamin was drifting off to sleep when he suddenly received a phone call from Venn. In an instant, his eyes lit up, a mix of excitement on his face. He hurriedly got out of bed, carefully putting on his clothes. Finally, he gently opened the door and quickly stepped outside."What's up?"As he rounded the corner, Benjamin saw Venn leaning against a wall, smoking more than a half-burnt cigarette.Upon seeing Benjamin approach, Venn quickly extinguished the cigarette and hopped onto his old Honda motorcycle. He started it up and pulled up in front of Benjamin, urging him: "Boss, get on quickly!"Seeing Venn's urgency, Benjamin said nothing more and swiftly sat on the back of the motorcycle, carefully putting on his helmet."Let's go!"The rattling of the old motorcycle echoed as the two figures disappeared into the night.About ten minutes later, Venn's old Honda motorcycle carried Benjamin into
At this moment, Benjamin pushed the door open and entered the house again. But as he passed Olivia's bedroom, he couldn't help but stop. "You... are you still awake?" Noticing the light was still on in Olivia's room, and that she was facing the door, Benjamin couldn't help but ask. Hearing Benjamin's voice, Olivia slowly turned around. She seemed a bit surprised as she looked at him. "Benjamin, it's late at night. Why aren't you in your room? What are you doing outside?" As she asked, Olivia's gaze didn't forget to scrutinize him. Seeing her actions, Benjamin couldn't help but smile wryly, shaking his head as he spoke. "Can't sleep, so I went for a walk. What about you? Why haven't you slept yet? Aren't you afraid of getting wrinkles from staying up late?" Although Benjamin's words were half-joking, Olivia felt incredibly touched. It was clear that he genuinely cared for her. "It's nothing, and I just can't sleep either." After speaking, Olivia suddenly stood up. At this momen
During this period, Patrick's family suddenly prospered. His father, Mr. Maddox Scott, won a significant contract. Furthermore, a mysterious investor poured considerable money into their family business, transforming it from a small enterprise into a corporation with billions in investment. As a result, Patrick's life became wealthy, and he became a young master in the city. Upon learning of Ximena's family difficulties, Patrick used his family's money to continuously support her and her family, persuading her to become his girlfriend. At first, Ximena refused. However, seeing Patrick's sincerity, she eventually agreed after a long period of resistance. After dating for more than a year, Patrick proposed marriage to her. Ximena hesitated, as there was still someone in her heart that she couldn't forget. Patrick, of course, was well aware of this. He knew about Ximena's feelings for Benjamin better than anyone else. Nevertheless, with his determination, he eventually convinced Ximen
"Ha ha ha, I never expected to receive such wonderful news today. Indeed, today is a day of double happiness. On behalf of the whole class, I wish the two of you a lifetime of happiness together."At that moment, Patrick's laughter suddenly erupted, making the atmosphere in the VIP room strangely peculiar.No one had expected Patrick to be so delighted, able to put aside his previous grudges and sincerely congratulate the couple.However, Benjamin didn't think so. He became slightly cautious, looking towards Patrick. That's because Patrick was hiding something deep within. It seemed as though there was a hidden scheme behind all this."Congratulations to both of you!"But before Benjamin could react, Patrick had already stepped forward, extending his hand towards him.Caught off guard by Patrick's smooth gesture, Benjamin had no choice but to reluctantly reach out his hand in return. Then, he smiled and replied, "Thank you!"However, as Patrick's hand approached, his voice suddenly lo
“Benjamin, what happened to Olivia?”Sitting right next to Benjamin, Ximena had also heard the phone conversation between the two. Although she couldn’t hear exactly what Olivia had said to him, at this point, seeing Benjamin’s face like that, she couldn’t help but feel extremely worried.However, Benjamin was in no mood to answer her question. After being lost in thought, he quickly suppressed his worries and took a deep breath. Finally, he turned to the taxi driver and said urgently,“Sir, please take me to the Royal Hotel quickly. I need to meet a friend there.”Hearing this, the driver nodded slightly, and the taxi sped off towards the avenue, heading for the Royal Hotel at the intersection.“Venn, are you there? I need your help!”Seeing the taxi speeding towards the hotel, Benjamin hurriedly took out his phone and dialed Venn’s number.As soon as Venn received Benjamin’s call, he quickly picked up and replied,“Boss, what do you need? Just tell me!”Without any hesitation, Venn a
"Noam, long time no see!"Upon their reunion, Noam rushed over and gave Benjamin an incredibly tight hug. If it had been someone else, they would have probably had their bones crushed by such a passionate embrace.However, Benjamin's expression remained warm and welcoming. He even gave Noam a firm pat on the shoulder.For a moment, Noam was visibly shaken. He quickly took a few steps back and stared at Benjamin horrifiedly."Boss, your strength?!"It was evident from Noam's face that he was terrified. Previously, Benjamin was already the strongest among the team members, but Noam had never felt such pressure from him.Although Benjamin's pat was gentle, the sheer force behind it was unimaginably strong. Had Benjamin used his full strength, Noam's shoulder would have likely shattered, leaving him crippled."How about that? I told you, our boss is still our boss. Just a little cat like you, wanting to test the boss's strength, huh?"At this point, Venn, standing at a distance, couldn't
