Chapter: 1527

There were five men of different ages sitting beside him, and all of them looked intimidating and dangerous. They were Benjamin�s foster children, just like Mateo. There was only one woman in the hall, and she was wearing a white traditional suit, looking charming and delicate.

Renee felt curious just looking at her, and tugged on Liam�s sleeve as she asked, �Liam, is that Joanne?�

Although she did not look like the girl in the photograph, she was the only woman who

seemed to have a considerably high status in the fort.

�No, that�s not Joanne, but my master�s only child, Amber Jenkins. He loves her very much, so don�t offend her.�

�Oh� No wonder she sits beside your master,� Renee murmured as she stared at her.

Suddenly, Benjamin stood up and laughed heartily as he stroked his beard.

�Hah, you really are my good disciple! Gem was right-she told me that you�ll come back, and you did. Come and sit over here.�

�Master, it�s been a while. Are you well?� Liam respectfully asked Benjamin.

�I wasn�t at first because I was worried about Gem�s marriage, but I don�t have to be, now that you�re back�� Benjamin said meaningfully.

�Dad, please don�t say things like that. If not, you�ll scare Liam away again.� Amber pulled on Benjamin�s sleeve and lowered her head in embarrassment. It was obvious that she admired Liam. After all, she had managed to escape from that red-light district because of him.

Mateo had liked Amber for many years, so when he saw Amber looking flustered, he

became jealous and hurriedly said, �Master, there�s one thing you didn�t know. Liam came back this time with his girlfriend, he said he wants you to meet her.�

�Girlfriend?� Benjamin�s features immediately turned cold. �You were in a hurry to leave the other day� Was it because of your girlfriend too?�

Previously, he did not plan to let Liam go. But after his daughter pleaded with him, he

reluctantly agreed to it. It had only been a short while, but Liam had come back with a

girlfriend�of course Benjamin and Amber would feel humiliated.

�That�s right. Master, I told you before that I�ve had a crush on her for many years. Now, at last, I�ve made her my girlfriend. Don�t you think I�m capable?

�Liam grabbed the chance and held Renee as he spoke to Benjamin earnestly.

�Hmph, you�re indeed capable.� Benjamin sized Renee up. Although he was smiling, he

could not hide the fierceness in his eyes.

�Nice to meet you, Mr. Jenkins." Renee nodded at Benjamin politely. Her intuition told her that things would not be that easy this time around.

Benjamin ignored Renee�s greeting, a prime example of male chauvinism.

Renee was told to sit at a neighboring table with a group of strangers. She did not even get to speak to Benjamin.

On the other hand, Liam was treated very well, and was asked to sit at Benjamin�s left. JrNovels.com
