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
Taking the two pieces of paper handed to him by Benjamin, Noam flipped them back and forth for a while, then shook his head, muttering."What kind of weird toy is this? How come there's no writing inside?!"For someone like Noam, who preferred using force over intelligence, he had no interest in the two blank pieces of paper. He glanced at them and then threw them back to Benjamin.However, at this moment, Venn's eyes revealed a hint of curiosity. He stared intently at the two pieces of paper for a long time. Then, he suddenly took both pieces and held them up in front of his face.After a while, Venn finally handed the two pieces of paper back to Benjamin. However, his gaze now appeared extremely serious."Boss, have you ever heard of an invisible ink pen?""An invisible ink pen?!"Hearing Venn's question, Benjamin couldn't help but be stunned."Yes, it's a pen that uses invisible ink. The writing only appears when the pen is used and then immediately vanishes. But, if you use a UV l
Although these dark figures only emitted the aura of second-grade martial artists, which were equivalent to second-rate experts in the military world, there were nearly a dozen of them at this time. Moreover, mixed within them was an aura that had reached the level of a great master.It should be noted that every martial artist in this world is a meager existence. After all, the modern world has increasingly polluted air, and spiritual energy has become extremely scarce.To embark on a long and arduous cultivation path, each martial artist must consume many resources, especially those who have reached the level of martial arts masters and above, which is even more challenging.This is because most martial artists need to undergo a period of physical training when they first start cultivating, maintaining an extremely high intensity of practice. To reach higher levels, they not only spend a lot of time but also need various medicinal materials to train their bodies.Most of these medic
As soon as he stepped into the damp, moldy room, the scene before his eyes made Benjamin take a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart.Directly in front of him were two men in Western clothing. One wore a white mask with only two eye holes. The other sat in an armchair, legs crossed, wearing a striking red vest. Moreover, this man also wore a terrifying mask, revealing four long, sharp fangs. At the same time, he held Olivia's hair in one hand, pressing her face down toward the ground.When he saw Benjamin enter the room, his movements paused slightly. Then, from deep within the man's eyes, a cruel smile emerged."At last, you've arrived?!"Seeing this scene, Benjamin was genuinely outraged. But right now, he knew he couldn't act impulsively because the strength of these two men was unbelievably powerful, especially the man in the white mask, who stood behind the man in the demonic front.From him, Benjamin felt immense pressure. This man's power was, at the very least, at t
As for Olivia's thoughts, Benjamin couldn't possibly know. He held the gun in his hand, briefly contemplating. Then, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes because, according to the weapon's weight, there were no bullets inside the magazine.Based on his years of experience with firearms, Benjamin would never guess incorrectly. However, he hesitated at that moment, not daring to gamble with Olivia's life."Ten seconds left!"At that moment, the voice of the man in the red vest rang out again. Simultaneously, the dagger in his hand tightened even closer to Olivia's throat.Taking a deep breath, Benjamin finally voiced his conjecture."I guess there are no bullets in this gun."As soon as Benjamin spoke, the man in the red vest appeared astonished. Then, he clapped again and laughed cheerfully."Ha ha ha, truly worthy of being the top warrior. Even such a thing could be guessed by you. But..."As he spoke the final words, the man in the red vest's voice became extremely unhappy. Simultaneo
