Chapter 89: Benjamin Jordan_
Before long, they had arrived at the banquet hall!
At this moment, on the second floor of the banquet hall, next to the railing, at one of the table, a handsome man was sitting and drinking and across from him, a young man who was currently spilling his woes.
"Benjamin, let me tell you, last night my dad called me in the middle of the night saying I need to find someone. And all for what? I have been looking for a whole day now, the person my father asked me to find, nowhere to be found up until now!"
Hearing this, there in the corner, Benjamin laughed lightly.
Then raising his wine, he took a light sip and said, "Haha! Don't worry Timothy! This banquet tonight is hosted by the Robinson family! Basically, all the big names in the city are here! Since you said you are looking for someone, there's a good chance you will find them at tonight's feast!"
"Hmm, I hope so." Ending it there, Timothy seemed a bit gloomy, taking a sip of his wine.
As for Benjamin, he began to get curiously puzzled. "But Timothy, I'm quite curious, who are you looking for? Who is so important that your dad called you in the middle of the night, asking you to find them in the city?"
Benjamin had a clear understanding of the identity of the man standing before him–Timothy! He was the heir of one of the top conglomerates in the country! An extraordinary lofty status! And just who exactly was this 'big shot' that could actually make him pay a visit?
Upon hearing this, Timothy who was present shook his head and replied, "This is a real big shot, I cannot reveal his identity to you for now. However, what I can tell you is, if it wasn't for my father being tied up recently, it would have been him coming instead!"
"What!" With these words, Benjamin was literally astounded! His gaze clearly betrayed a touch of astonishment.
For a moment, there was a hint of seriousness in Benjamin's heart! After all, he never expected! The person who was supposed to come, it turned out to be the big shot from the Mosley family!
So this time, who is this Timothy looking for exactly? So... Such a big shot appeared in Cartmel? For a moment, a series of questions emerged in Benjamin's mind as if lightning fast! Then, he lifted the wine glass and takes a gentle sip.
At this time, Benjamin's gaze subconsciously looked towards the entrance below.
Suddenly, he saw Niamh walking in! And... Having his arm affectionately linked by Niamh, Bright appeared quite endearing!
For a while, a gloomy and unsightly expression appeared on his face.
"Hmm? Mr Jordan, what's wrong with you?" Timothy noticed Benjamin's rather unpleasant expression.
Upon hearing Timothy calling for him, Benjamin quickly turned around and then, he responded with a smile. "I noticed an acquaintance, Timothy, please take a seat here, I will go down to say hello."
"Sounds good, go ahead and greet them." Timothy didn't mind, simply waving his hand in response.
Downstairs.
The two of them had entered the banquet hall.
Niamh stuck out her tongue and said, "Bright, thank you for accompanying me down the red carpet."
"It's nothing." Bright simply smiled, without saying much.
However, just at that moment! A chilling voice emerged from behind the two!
"Niamh, I didn't expect you to actually come."
Startled, Niamh's face changed and she turned around to look! There stood Benjamin, with a cold facade and a hint of disgust in his eyes!
"Benjamin, I didn't expect that the representative from the Jordan family would be you!"
As for that, Benjamin remained silent.
There was just an icy expression on his face as he turned to look at Bright! "Hehe! No wonder you have been avoiding me, so you've found yourself a new man, haven't you?"
As he said this, Benjamin looked at Niamh with eyes full of jealousy. He had been pursuing her for over a year! But Niamh never bothered to pay any attention to him.
And now? She came here, arm in arm with another man! How could this not make him furious?
But hearing Benjamin's words, Niamh's face flushed slightly.
However, she soon rebuked in a somewhat embarrassed and angry voice. "Benjamin! Stop making things up!"
"Making things up?" Benjamin scoffed.
"Have I misspoken? Everyone here saw you walk in arm in arm with this mysterious man! If word got out about this, I'm afraid it wouldn't be too good for the reputation of your Robinson Group, would it?"
Once the sentence was out, the atmosphere plummeted to freezing point! Many people around had turned their attention over here now.
"Yeah, who exactly is this man that Miss Robinson is walking with?
"Do we know him? Is he the young master of any families in Cartmel?"
"I have never seen him before."
Niamh bit her lower lip and said, "Benjamin! That's our private business! You had better not go too far!"
Hearing this, Benjamin smirked. Then, he raised an eyebrow and said, "Well! Since it's our private business, should we find a more private place to talk?"
With a playful grin, Benjamin reached out his hand, aiming straight at Niamh!
And just at this moment! A hand reached out behind Niamh! Indeed, it firmly grabbed Benjamin's wrist!
In the next moment, Bright stepped forward, blocking in front of Niamh.
Then, he threw off Benjamin's wrist and said coldly, "Don't you think you are a bit over the line here!"
A simple sentence fell. Everyone around was somewhat taken aback!
But deep in Niamh's heart, a sense of security began to sprout. A hint of red surfaced on her face! This feeling of being protected made Niamh's heartbeat race!
At that point, Benjamin was indeed surprised! The sudden appearance of Bright startled him!
After all, enhanced by the Body Boost Elixir, Bright who was originally 1.85 meters tall, had grown a few centimeters taller recently, reaching around 1.88 meters, he was close to 1.9 meters!
Given Bright's gradually bulging muscles, it can be said that overall, he carried a certain intimidating aura!
