Later, the group of people returned to the Landor’s house.

Noticing the strange atmosphere, Thomas took the initiative to say, “Susan, I still have something to do, so I’ll go home first.”

“Why not stay for a few more days?” Susan asked, a little surprised.

“No, thank you. I’ll come back when I’m done with my work,” said Thomas with a smile.

He still needed to prepare the medicine for Ben.

At Thomas‘ insistence, Susan did not ask him to stay any longer.

After Thomas left, Penelope looked at Charlie cautiously and asked tentatively, “Dad, about Leo…”

Charlie glanced at her and said lightly, “Since the Storm Group is doing well and Leo is just a fresh graduate, he’d better not interfere. If he wants to start a business, I’ll provide him with some money to start his own business.”

Hearing this, Penelope’s face abruptly changed.

She thought, “Previously, Charlie was still willing to let Leo work his way up from the bottom.

Now, does Charlie mean to directly rule out the chance for Leo to work at the Storm Group?

No! How can he do this?”

“Dad! But the two of them are both children of the Landor family. You can’t favor one over the other,” Penelope said in a sharp voice.

Charlie sneered and said, “The Storm Group used to be a small company with less than 2 million dollars in registered capital. How about this? I can give Leo 2 million dollars for him to start his business. Will it be fair now?”

“But it’s different!” Penelope screamed.

“What’s the difference?” Charlie said expressionlessly, “It’s settled. If Leo doesn’t like this arrangement, you can ask him to talk to me.”

With that, Charlie turned around and left.

Penelope was left behind, looking resentful.

This time, she went for wool and came home shorn!

Penelope glanced at Susan next to her and couldn’t help but question her with a cold face, “Did you deliberately propose to show us around the company since you already knew what

would happen today?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, Mrs. Landor,” Susan said, raising her eyebrows.

“Stop pretending! You arranged for the people in the canteen in advance to put on the show, didn’t you?” Penelope said through gritted teeth.

“As you know, we decided to go to the company when we had breakfast in the morning. After that, I never left your sight. May I ask you, how can I arrange everything in advance under your nose?” Susan arched a brow.

“I don’t know how you managed to do it, but you must have played some tricks.” Penelope kept accusing Susan.

“Maniac.” Susan rolled her eyes, ignored her, and left.

Penelope was dumbfounded. She shouted angrily, “Stop right there! Is this how you treat. an elder? Susan Miller, stop! Do you hear me?”

Susan only left Penelope with her leaving back.

Penelope lost her mind. She had no idea why things had turned out like this.

Originally, her efforts in smearing Ben had already paid off.

However, it had gradually become harder for her to spread malicious rumors. Meanwhile, Ben’s reputation in the company had also drastically changed.

Penelope thought about it and realized that all of this had happened since Susan married

into the Landor family.

“Susan Miller!”

Penelope gnashed her teeth, furiously repeating this name inwardly.

In fear of Charlie’s warning, Penelope had been obedient for a while. But she regretted it

now!

She felt her obedience only led to the result that Leo was about to be kicked out of the company!

Ruthlessness flickered in Penelope’s eyes.

She made up her mind that she couldn’t allow such harmony between Ben and Susan.

She felt that their harmony was only a hindrance to Leo and her.

She thought she had to drive a wedge between Ben and Susan by hook or by crook.

With a cold face, Penelope began scheming.

As soon as Thomas left the Landor’s house, he couldn’t wait to call Ben.

“Haha, Ben, you don’t know how awesome Susan was! She proposed to take them to the company. At first, your stepmother was very complacent! However, after they went to the canteen and met those employees full of praise for you, your stepmother’s face darkened

at once. Then…”

Thomas narrated in high spirits, enraptured…

While listening quietly, a glad smile gradually rose on Ben’s lips.

“Ben, are you listening to me?” Thomas asked.

“I’m,” Ben replied.

Thomas chuckled and said, “Ben, to be honest, at first, I was worried about you when you told me you had someone you loved.”

He knew very well that Ben would be wholeheartedly devoted to someone he truly cared

about though he was usually ruthless.

Ben’s devotion last time, however, had only led to the disaster where he was almost burned

to death in the room on fire.

Therefore, Thomas was afraid that Ben would be deceived again this time.

“What about now?” Ben asked as he raised his eyebrows.

“I’m not worried anymore.” Thomas smiled and said in his rarely serious voice, “Susan is perfect for you. You will live a very happy life with her.”

Sensing the sincerity in Thomas‘ words, Ben’s eyes were full of joy. He said, “Of course, we’ll be happy.”

“Ew…” Thomas pretended to puke.

But after hanging up the phone, he unconsciously curved his lips into a faint smile.

He was glad that everything was going well now.

Ben looked out of the window, slightly narrowing his eyes.

Leo was coming back.

Ben didn’t have a close relationship with this half–brother of his.

After all, ever since Leo was born, Penelope had been under the delusion that Ben would trap Leo. Therefore, Leo had always been kept far away from Ben and had been sent abroad to study when he was a little older.

Although they were brothers, the time Ben and Leo were together was even less than a year in total.

Ben had never intended to harm Leo, but since Penelope was so wary of him, Ben naturally wouldn’t look for trouble by getting close to Leo.

In the past, Penelope had been desperately keeping Leo away from Ben.

However, Penelope seemed to think it was the right time to let Leo compete with Ben for Storm Group now.

Ben smiled but in an extremely cold way.

“Interesting,” thought Ben.

Three days later, Leo was back.

He wasn’t back alone but brought a young girl with him.

In the living room of the Landor’s house.

It was the first time that Susan had seen Ben’s younger brother, Leo.

Leo could be considered a handsome man.

However, in Susan eyes, he was a little cheesy.

Ever since he returned, he had held his head high and kept philosophizing loudly, like a peacock spreading its tail.

He seemed to be bragging that he was so excellent that everyone should lick his boots.

Susan only felt bored at the sight of him.

Leo was still boasting in high spirits.

“Grandpa, let me tell you, management experience abroad is indeed much more advanced than that at home! I have now mastered it. As long as I’m allowed a chance, I promise I’ll be able to greatly improve the employees‘ enthusiasm for work so that they can create more wealth for the company.

“Ben, I’ve also written a 10,000–word business plan. Take a look at it. As long as you follow the instructions written on it, the company will certainly make a leap.”

Leo handed over a stack of sheets, brimming with confidence.”

Penelope had already told him that his grandpa was not going to let him enter Storm Group.

However, Leo did not take this matter to heart.

wait to offer him all kinds of opportunities.

Leo was indeed very confident.

Ben took the 10,000–word business plan over and casually put it aside.

“Ben, why don’t you even take a look at it? It took me three days to finish it,” Leo said with an incredulous look.

Ben said indifferently, “Three years ago, a Ph.D. from an international top university submitted a 100,000–word proposal to my mailbox as soon as he joined the company. Do you know what happened to him later?”

Leo was stunned for a moment before he asked, “Did he make a meteoric rise in his

career?”

Ben glanced at him and said lightly, “I fired him.”

Leo was speechless with shock.

Feeling the tense atmosphere between the two brothers, Charlie couldn’t help but let out a soft cough and say, “Leo, let’s put aside the topic of work first. Can you introduce this young girl who came with you? Is she your girlfriend?”

The girl in a white floral dress who had been sitting quietly aside since she arrived with Leo looked well–educated.

Leo was stunned for a moment and quickly explained, “No, no. Grandpa, this is my classmate in college, Isabella Smith. She comes from an influential family in Riowert. Though she was abroad before, she heard of Ben’s reputation as a legend in the business world, so she begged me to take her with me before I came back this time.”

Isabella finally raised her head and looked at Ben timidly. “Nice to meet you, Mr. Landor. Can… can I have your autograph?”

She was extremely beautiful. Her gaze at Ben was filled with admiration and expectation.

Who could resist the temptation of such a cute girl when she was looking at a man with such intense worship in her eyes?

Susan glanced at Ben expressionlessly.

Ben was startled.

Meanwhile, Isabella had already stood up. She walked up to Ben and bashfully picked up the hem of her dress as she uttered, “Can you… sign on my

dress?”

Ben was stupefied.

He thought, “This woman is killing me!”
