Chapter 245 Benjamin: I Just Want A Word from Mr. Ryan!
Vadiff.
At the entrance of the Clarks' mansion, a shiny black sedan drove in.
The car came to a slow stop.
A slender figure got out of the car, and the servant respectfully greeted him, "Good day, young master!"
Benjamin frowned, "Where is Mr. Ryan?"
The servant, sensing something wrong with his expression, didn't know how to respond.
Kenneth happened to come out and saw Benjamin, asking indifferently, "Why are you here so early?" Benjamin gritted his white teeth.
He sneered, "Of course, I've come to replace you, Uncle!"
Kenneth glanced at his watch, "Unfortunately, I have a meeting shortly. The driver is already waiting!"
Benjamin blocked his way and said with a fake smile, "It won't take much of Uncle's time. We can talk and then you can go."
Kenneth frowned.
Benjamin lowered his head, lit a cigarette, took a few slow puffs, and then spoke in a calm voice, "I want to talk to Mr. Ryan about Eloise!"
Mr. Ryan?
Kenneth signaled, and his secretary and the servants all withdrew.
Once the scene was cleared, Kenneth also lit a cigarette.
Standing in the wind, smoke rose and dissipated as he breathed in and out, and his handsome face appeared clear and blurry at times.
After a while, he asked hoarsely, "How is she doing?"
Benjamin sneered, "How is she doing? A girl who is dragged on until the age of 31, not returning home, not getting married, renting a shabby 40-square-meter house outside... Mr. Ryan, what do you think of her situation?"
Kenneth's slender fingers, holding the cigarette, trembled slightly.
He was accustomed to maintaining a calm composure in his high position.
But even after more than two years, upon hearing news about that person, he couldn't help but feel unsettled.
He speculated that Benjamin knew something!
Kenneth's voice became hoarser, "Why... why doesn't she come home?"
Benjamin stared at him with an intense gaze, as if he wanted to tear him apart.
Yes, he came to settle the score with Kenneth!
However, he had no intention of revealing Emerson's existence. Eloise, the Clark family's heiress, was Benjamin's sister. There was no reason to use a child to manipulate a man...
He stared at Kenneth and asked slowly, "How long did you sleep with her?"
Kenneth's eyebrows twitched.
After three years of hiding, the truth was finally exposed.
He took a deep drag on his cigarette, took his time, and said, "About half a year! It started when Madelyn was in the hospital... and then we had an on-and-off relationship for another six months." Benjamin reminisced for a moment.
During that six months, Madelyn went abroad, and Kenneth seemed to always be on business trips to Gredax.
So that's how it was.
Benjamin sneered, "Before Mr. Ryan engaged in such actions, did he ever consider his own age and Eloise's age... We are still related by marriage! Yes, you certainly don't have to care about these things because sleeping with her is not illegal for you, but... ask yourself honestly, out of all the times you slept with her, was there ever a time because you wanted to marry her? Was there ever a time that wasn't just to satisfy your own animalistic desires?"
Kenneth looked deeply into Benjamin's eyes.
He couldn't refute it!
Benjamin stubbed out his cigarette, took off his coat and casually tossed it aside, then began rolling up his shirt sleeves.
He sneered, "Can't say it, huh?"
Frowning, Kenneth asked, "Are you going to fight me?"
Benjamin laughed coldly, even more so, "Mr. Ryan, do you have any objections? Let me tell you... my current identity is Eloise's brother. She may be innocent and timid, but I'm not easily fooled. Now I'm asking you, what are you planning to do?"
Kenneth was always decisive.
He and her could never be together from the beginning. They had been separated for over two years now, and there was no need to involve her in his complicated life.
He quietly extinguished his cigarette and said, "It's impossible between me and her!"
Benjamin landed a punch without any mercy.
Kenneth endured the blow, flesh against flesh, and soon his profile was covered in bruises.
Benjamin's knuckles were slightly swollen, but he threw another punch.
At this moment, Kaleb, who had been hiding nearby, stepped forward quickly and reached out to stop them, persuading, "Mr. Clark, calm down! You and Mr. Ryan are family, don't get angry so early in the morning!"
Benjamin pushed him aside and continued fighting Kenneth.
"You bastard! My sister is 16 years younger than you!"
"How could you lay a hand on her?"
"Where do you think you're going?"
"Do you want me to recount all the things you did to Madelyn?"
"Clean up your own mess first!"
No one was holding back!
The servants in the house watched from afar and knew that the young master was fighting with Mr. Ryan, but they didn't know why!
Kaleb was clever and ran into the courtyard to seek reinforcements and brought Athena.
Athena hurried over.
As soon as she arrived, she saw her son and son-in-law fighting fiercely. Both sides were fighting as if their lives depended on it, with bruises on their faces and bodies. "Stop!" Athena angrily shouted.
Kenneth stopped first, taking a step back and looking at Benjamin. "We'll talk about this another day. I have a meeting to attend now!"
Benjamin wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth and sarcastically said, "With Mr. Ryan looking like this, how can you go to a meeting? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at and affecting Mr. Ryan's perfect image?"
Kenneth was speechless.
Athena stood between them and admonished her son, "How old are you? And how old is Ben? You're usually a mature person, so how did you end up fighting with someone younger? And in front of the servants too! How are you going to discipline others in the future?"
She clearly showed favoritism.
In his mind, Kenneth cursed Benjamin's ancestors, but he gently appeased his mother, "Because of Madelyn! Mom, just leave it alone!"
Athena disagreed, "Aren't they a good couple now?"
Kenneth rubbed his nose.
Benjamin helped the old lady sit down. He had won her favor, so he directly exposed the old lady's secret, "He has been dating my sister... for more than half a year!"
Kenneth: ...
Athena was stunned.
She picked up her cane and waved it at her son, scolding him, "Tell me if this is true! Tell me! I always thought you were powerful when facing Ben, but today you kept quiet. It turns out you did something shameless... Today, I'll beat you to death and apologize to their parents myself!"
She hits hard.
Kenneth took several hits behind his back, and it stung painfully.
He had always been filial and didn't dare to anger the old lady any further. He knelt directly in front of her, "It's my fault! I couldn't control myself! But... we're not compatible."
Athena was visibly taken aback.
She hadn't expected her son to admit it so readily.
She remained silent for a long time before whispering, "Losing control once is one thing, but you've been dating her for six months. What does that say? Kenneth, you know your own abilities and charm. It's easy for young girls to fall for you. If you reject her just like that, what will she do in the future?"
She was clearly disappointed and started to leave.
Benjamin quickly helped her up.
The old lady looked at him and said softly, "Tomorrow, I will personally go to Gredax to apologize to your parents and that girl. This is a result of Kenneth's wrongdoing, and I will give an explanation to your family."
Benjamin came in with frustration.
But at this moment, his heart couldn't help but soften, and he took the initiative to say, "I also have my impulsive moments."
Athena shook her head, "What's wrong with standing up for your sister!"
Benjamin said quietly, "I'm not trying to force anything. I just want my uncle to make a statement. If he doesn't have those feelings for Eloise, then... I will arrange for Eloise to go on blind dates."
Kenneth felt a wrench in his heart.
Blind dates...
These two words, in his calm and unruffled heart, felt like a giant rock had been dropped.
It stirred up unrest in his mind!
Benjamin calmed down, stood in front of Kenneth, and spoke in a matter-of-fact tone, "She didn't say anything, but I could feel that she really liked you and was deeply hurt! If you saw her now, you might not even recognize her... Uncle, Eloise was raised in the Clark family. She has never washed a dish or done any housework, but she... but she..."
Benjamin's voice choked.
He made an effort to calm himself down before whispering, "If you don't want her, then don't disturb her anymore!"
Kenneth's emotions surged.
He once... had a deep fondness for that innocent girl.
They separated because he felt it wasn't right.
The past was being dug up now, and it was not that he didn't want to see her, but what would happen if they do meet? They entered a dead end more than two years ago.
Kenneth spoke softly, "I'm the one who owes her an apology! Tell her that she can ask for any kind of compensation she wants."
Benjamin's gaze was deep.
He smiled faintly, "The Clark family doesn't need any compensation. All I wanted was a word from Mr. Ryan. Now that Mr. Ryan says it's not suitable, I can rest assured! I'll go back and tell my foolish sister to
give up early, and then make her go on blind dates... Maybe she won't encounter someone like Mr. Ryan again, but it's not difficult to replace someone who truly cares for her!"
After saying this, Benjamin turned around and left...
Kenneth stood there, looking somewhat dazed.
Kaleb pondered for a moment and said softly, "Mr. Ryan, please gather yourself. We have a meeting soon!"
Kenneth remained in a daze.
After some time passed, he suddenly became furious, "What's the point of having a damn meeting! I don't even have the freedom to like a woman, so why bother with a meeting?"
