Dragon Rises From Nothing!

Chapter 7: Slapped On The Butt In Public

Looking at the eight full glasses of wine, Benjamin's expression remained unchanged. He was resolute, walking over and pouring the entire glass of wine on the table into his mouth.

Seeing this, everyone in the room was filled with fear. Especially Olivia, who never expected Benjamin to do such a thing for her. After all, even someone with a high alcohol tolerance could only handle a few glasses of this type of wine at most. Moreover, this was the first time anyone else had ever downed eight drinks in one go as he did.

"Good, the wine has been finished. Can we leave now?"

Although the eight glasses of wine weren't a big problem for Benjamin, drinking that much at once left him feeling dizzy. At this moment, Olivia felt incredibly guilty. Meanwhile, seeing her wrist still held tightly by Benjamin, her face flushed with embarrassment.

"Corbin, we'd like to take our leave now."

Olivia's body leaned slightly forward. She then took Benjamin's hand and quickly led him out of the room.

"Wait!"

However, at that moment, an extremely inappropriate sound suddenly rang out. Benjamin then saw Edwyn, who had recovered from his fear, approaching Corbin to speak.

"Mr. Corbin, I think he seems a bit drunk. If we let them both leave like this, even though I trust Olivia's character, who knows what kind of dirty tricks a drunk like him might pull?"

As soon as Edwyn finished speaking, Corbin's face turned serious. He hastily stood up, walked in front of Olivia and Benjamin, and said,

"Hold on, and we haven't finished drinking yet!"

Seeing their exit blocked and Edwyn's smug expression as he looked at them, Benjamin's face grew increasingly unpleasant. But with Corbin and his subordinates blocking the entrance, there was no way for Benjamin to leave.

"Corbin, is this another misunderstanding? There's nothing between him and me. He's a good person. I believe in his character!"

Olivia's explanation only made Corbin's expression graver. He could see that she was very concerned about Benjamin.

"No, I've decided. You'll have to serve the drinks if you don't want to drink with me."

At this point, Benjamin could no longer hold back. He pulled Olivia aside and then stared at Corbin with a provocative look.

"People should keep their word, especially businessmen like you. Once you break trust, it's hard to regain it."

"And what about it? You're just a guard dog anyway. Do I need to keep my word for a dog?"

Hearing Benjamin's taunt, Corbin didn't take offense. On the contrary, he looked at him with extreme disdain.

"Do you want to die?"

Being called a guard dog in front of everyone, Benjamin could no longer control his anger.

He punched Corbin directly in the face, and a piercing scream followed. At that moment, Benjamin had broken Corbin's nose.

"You bastard, you dare hit our boss?"

"Guys, get him! Beat him to death!"

Seeing their boss being beaten, his subordinates finally exploded. They immediately charged Benjamin, wanting to avenge their boss.

However, Benjamin was a former special forces soldier, having experienced numerous battles. To him, the bodyguards in front of him were merely child's play.

But just as Benjamin was about to retaliate, Olivia's face showed extreme fear. She urgently said: "Benjamin, don't hurt them. Otherwise, our restaurant will face huge trouble."

Upon hearing this, Benjamin stopped his movement. The eager bodyguards saw their opportunity and immediately lunged at Benjamin, punching and kicking without mercy.

At this point, Benjamin felt highly annoyed. But thinking about how fighting back could affect Olivia, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and endure the beating.

"Beat him, beat him to death for me!"

After using a white cloth to stop the bleeding, Corbin's face was extremely unsightly as he furiously shouted at his underlings.

Beaten and drunk, Benjamin could no longer endure the pain and gradually lost consciousness. Everything around him seemed to grow darker and darker.

...

When he woke up, Benjamin sat in the police station with Olivia caring for him.

"Are you okay?"

Seeing Benjamin awake, a relieved and joyful expression appeared on Olivia's worried face. However, Benjamin glanced around with confusion and suspicion.

"Why are we here?"

At this point, Olivia began to explain. After Benjamin had been knocked unconscious, the restaurant staff called the police. He was then taken to the station to await someone to bail him out. Besides providing written statements, Corbin's underlings faced no consequences as he bailed them out.

"Oh, so that's what happened?!"

Benjamin nodded slightly. He didn't continue the conversation, and instead silently waited for Isabella to bail him out. Although he had been notified more than an hour ago, two more hours had passed since Benjamin woke up, and Isabella was nowhere to be seen.

Growing anxious, Benjamin noticed that Olivia was still caring for him. He stood up and told her,

"Miss, you should go home first. I can wait here for my family member by myself!"

Hearing Benjamin's somewhat formal address, Olivia smiled and said: "You don't have to call me 'miss'. From now on, you can call me Olivia. In terms of age, I'm probably not much older than you."

Hearing this, Benjamin nodded and smiled. Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside.

"Miss Isabella, your husband is in the office. We've completed all the paperwork; you must sign this agreement."

Immediately after, Benjamin spotted Isabella's angry face approaching the room. Before he could say anything, a swift hand slapped him across the face.

"You never do anything properly, and now you've caused trouble and I must clean up. Don't you think you've made me lose face?"

Taken aback by the sudden slap, Benjamin's face stiffened.

"Director!"

Standing to the side, Olivia's face also froze in shock. She hadn't been expecting that Benjamin's wife was her superior.

"What are you still doing standing there? Clean up and follow me out of here!"

Although many eyes were on them, making her uncomfortable, Isabella didn't want to waste more words on Benjamin and ordered him to leave the police station immediately.

However, Benjamin's attitude became highly stubborn. He refused to follow her orders and stepped forward, wrapped his arm around her waist, and angrily smacked her buttocks with force.

"You are my wife, not my boss. You should respect me. I will hit you again if you dare to do that again."

Suddenly attacked and even spanked in front of others, Isabella's face turned beet red, and her voice choked in her throat.

At this moment, Benjamin's mind was in chaos. He had felt oppressed by Isabella, unable to hold his head up in front of others. Therefore, he had impulsively spanked her in public.

Feeling the softness in his hand, Benjamin felt a little regretful. However, if given another chance, he would still spank her again. After all, it felt excellent at the moment.

However, Isabella was not someone can trifle with. So, while she was still not yet enraged, Benjamin quickly embraced her and left the room. He threw her into the car and promptly locked the door.

Up to this point, Isabella seemed to be in a daze. When she finally reacted, she sat in the car with Benjamin.

"You bastard, I'll kill you!"

Like a storm pent-up inside her, Isabella began to scream with loud sound. However, Benjamin's reaction was surprisingly calm. He glanced at her buttocks and smirked.

"If you dare to do anything outrageous again, I'll spank you again."

"You dare?!" Isabella nearly roared. But remembering the recent scene at the police station, her face momentarily fell.

However, the peaceful atmosphere only lasted a few moments. Isabella's face quickly became furious as she glared at Benjamin.

"You bastard, did you intentionally ruin my restaurant's reputation?"

Suddenly scolded by Isabella, Benjamin's face revealed a look of doubt. Then, he remembered Olivia's reaction when she saw his wife appear at the police station.

"That restaurant is my property!" Isabella shouted.

It was only then that Benjamin truly realized the truth. The restaurant where he worked as a security guard was a branch company owned by Isabella.
