In this situation, Benjamin knew very well in his heart. However, he didn't expose it but instead turned to look at Venn."And you, why did you decide to return to your hometown and become the owner of a general store? I remember you had saved quite some money back then, which could have been used to start a business in the city, right?"Upon hearing Benjamin's question, Venn just smiled without giving a direct answer.Seeing that, Benjamin didn't continue speaking either. For a moment, the atmosphere inside the car became much quieter."By the way, boss, I heard you got married. Is that true?"After some time, Noam's voice suddenly rang out, livening up the atmosphere in the car once again. However, Benjamin's gaze turned fierce as he looked at Noam."Who told you that?""What?!"Caught off guard by Benjamin's counter-question, Noam didn't know how to respond, stammering for a while before finally finding his words."It's not a secret or anything. Actually, my wife is the CE
"Ah, big brother, you're here!"As soon as Mila saw Benjamin at the door, she became excited, waving her arm towards him. Seeing his sister awake and slightly flushed, Benjamin couldn't help but show a hint of happiness. However, when he noticed the person sitting beside her, peeling an apple for her, his eyebrows furrowed in annoyance."Isabella, what are you doing here?!"At some point, Isabella had appeared in the hospital, and moreover, she had purposely come to visit Benjamin's sister. If he hadn't just seen the two of them happily chatting, Benjamin would have wanted to pull Isabella outside and ask why she was here.Yet, Isabella's gaze suddenly shifted towards Benjamin, her face showing a gentle warmth."Benjamin, are you tired from your work trip? I noticed you didn't come home last night, so I came to visit Mila this morning. She had just woken up, so I brought some fruit."Hearing Isabella's explanation, Benjamin couldn't help but feel a bit strange.Although Isabell
This time, Benjamin received a scolding from Isabella that left him unable to raise his head. For a moment, he felt quite frustrated. Hadn't she just been sweet and gentle? How could a little squeeze change her back into the capricious woman she had been before?Although he thought so inwardly, Benjamin didn't dare voice these thoughts in front of Isabella. He could only force a smile and scratch his head."Weren't you surprising me? I thought someone had switched places with you. You're not usually this kind, are you?"Of course, the last part was only dared to be thought, not said out loud to Isabella.Unbeknownst to him, Isabella's eyes were like lightning bolts, as if she wanted to devour him alive."What do you mean? Are you saying that I usually don't treat you well, and now you suspect someone else is impersonating me? If you don't want me to treat you like this, then from now on, don't expect me to buy you any gifts!"As she spoke these words, Isabella's face clearly sho
Benjamin was unsure how he managed to return home. Fortunately, no one was home when he arrived. Isabella had gone to the office, and Raelynn and her daughter, Kinsley, had disappeared since early morning. Kinsley was probably hanging out with her friends, while Raelynn was most likely at beauty salons and spas. However, Benjamin's father-in-law seemed distant from his mother-in-law, and he had not seen him for quite some time. Moreover, the man was openly maintaining a mistress outside.As per his habit, Benjamin paused briefly on the ground floor before quickly heading to his bedroom. However, upon reaching his room, his steps faltered, and his brows furrowed."That's strange? I'm sure I closed the door when I left. How is it open now?"Although slightly suspicious, Benjamin didn't hesitate too much and swiftly entered his bedroom. Everything seemed to be in order, but he couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.He then glanced at the foot of his bed, feeling a sense o
Seeing Tiger's gestures and words, Benjamin showed no particular reaction. He had previously helped Tiger merely out of convenience, and there was no sentimental attachment between them. On the contrary, Tiger owed him a favor.However, since the man had humbled himself and apologized, Benjamin found it difficult to disregard his dignity. Furthermore, Noam was still in their hands. Benjamin could only pretend nothing happened and slowly followed behind Tiger, entering the mansion.After a while, guided by Tiger through numerous twists and turns, Benjamin finally arrived at a large hall on the mansion's second floor. This spacious hall spanned several hundred square meters, and many guards stood around its perimeter, each exuding a mighty aura. They were much stronger than the guards outside.What caught Benjamin's attention, though, were a young man and woman standing with a middle-aged man seated at the center of the grand hall. Beside them sat a slightly disgruntled-looking young
A few days later, in the bustling airport, Benjamin's footsteps slowed, and he glanced at Olivia with a somewhat awkward expression."Olivia, I'm truly sorry for the trouble. I appreciate you taking care of my sister while I'm not here. When I return, I'll treat you to dinner as a thank you!"Looking at Benjamin's backpack and then at Andrea's figure standing not far away, Olivia couldn't help but feel reluctant to part with them. Moreover, she always thought that they seemed to be hiding a secret from her. However, Olivia never thought that Benjamin's trip to the capital with Andrea wasn't just about resolving personal matters; he also intended to pretend to be her boyfriend to meet her father's family.Benjamin didn't dare to mention this in front of Olivia, and Olivia herself never expected Andrea to make such a request to Benjamin.Therefore, after hearing Benjamin's instructions, Olivia looked at him with tearful eyes and said,"Don't worry about it, and I'll take good care
Although her face was stinging from the slap, the flight attendant had no choice but to force a smile and speak."I sincerely apologize, but we don't have parachutes on the plane. Even if you talk to the chief flight attendant, she will tell you the same thing!"In truth, Bridget was quite terrified at this moment. However, due to her responsibilities, she had to stand in the cabin and explain the situation to the passengers.But the man had lost almost all reason by now and didn't bother to listen to her explanation. He raised his hand again, intending to deliver another resounding slap.However, his arm only made it halfway before suddenly stopping. A deep voice rang in his ear."I think that's enough! If you continue to make a scene here, I can help you escape."At this moment, the burly man couldn't help but look up and see a young man staring at him coldly. A chill enveloped his entire body for some reason, making him shiver uncontrollably.But the man was indeed quite aud
"I'm an air traffic control officer, call sign... go ahead!""Reporting, aircraft call sign... experiencing an emergency. We need to find a place for an emergency landing. Requesting assistance from the center to ensure a safe landing.""Air traffic control center has received the message instructing the flight crew to switch to safe flight mode. We will scan and provide information about the nearest airport for you.""Roger, the flight crew has received the signal. We will do our best to control the situation!"Benjamin performed every operation smoothly, not showing any signs of panic.Initially, Hubert wanted to challenge Benjamin, but now he stared at him in amazement, unable to hide his surprise.After a while, another signal was transmitted. The voice of the air traffic controller became more urgent."The nearest airport is less than ten kilometers away. We have transmitted the signal for permission to land. Can you continue with the landing?""We have received the signa
