Chapter 11

"Yes, yes, yes, I... I'll call right now!" Samuel Bennett didn't think any further, hurriedly pulled out his phone, his hands trembling as he dialed the number.

"Your boyfriend will die a miserable death!" In the same second, Emily Bolton took a deep breath, suppressing her shock and anxiety, snorted, and said to Grace Walker beside her, "If he had given up on you, he could have lived as an ordinary person. But now? In a moment of impulse, he injured Young Master Bennett. Heh... Whether he can survive is hard to say. The terror of the The Bennett Family is beyond your imagination."

"None of your business!"

"Miss Walker, Emily isn't trying to scare you. The terror of the The Bennett Family really is beyond what you and your hotheaded boyfriend can imagine. I remember there was a guy who offended Young Master Bennett before, his family had some money—definitely richer than your boyfriend. And what happened? He disappeared the next day. Completely vanished, as if he never existed in this world!"

A man at the same table spoke up, his eyes full of sympathy: "Miss Walker, just as Emily said, being noticed by Young Master Bennett is your good fortune. Originally, if your boyfriend had been a bit smarter, Young Master Bennett might have even rewarded him with some money. But now, heh... Just thinking about his fate makes my scalp tingle!"

Grace Walker's face turned slightly pale. Although she didn't say anything, her heart was filled with worry.

She wasn't stupid; she naturally knew that offending some rich and powerful young masters could really bring trouble.

Unconsciously, Grace Walker took a deep breath, hesitated for a moment, but still pulled out her phone and called her father.

Very soon.

The call connected.

"Dad..."

"Grace! What's the matter?" On the other end was the voice of a middle-aged man.

"Do you know Tianqing Group? My friend offended the young master of Tianqing Group..." Grace Walker took a deep breath and lowered her voice a bit.

There was silence on the other end!

After several breaths, the middle-aged man finally spoke: "Don't get involved, and cut off contact with that friend."

"Huh?" Grace Walker was shocked, her face growing even paler. "Why, Dad? That's a very close friend of mine!"

She didn't dare say it was her boyfriend, otherwise it would be even more troublesome.

"Tianqing Group is a very powerful listed company, and the background of its chairman is rather complicated..."

"Dad, can't you help him? Please!"

"I can't help!" The middle-aged man sighed.

"I... I understand." Grace Walker hung up the phone, but all the color had drained from her face.

"Hehe, Grace, so? Asking for help is useless, right? I know your family is pretty good, your uncle has some ability and knows some people, but can your family compare to the The Bennett Family? Grace, stop wasting your energy, no one can save your foolish boyfriend!" Emily Bolton laughed smugly.

"Emily Bolton, if anything happens to Henry Carter, I will make you regret it!!!" Grace Walker bit her lip, stared at Emily Bolton, and said word by word.

At this point, things were deeply connected to Emily Bolton.

"Is that so? I'll be waiting!" Emily Bolton shrugged, not caring at all about Grace Walker's threat.

After all, Young Master Bennett had his eyes on Grace Walker, and as for her, Emily Bolton would definitely get credit for it. In the future, she would be connected to Young Master Bennett, so what was there to be afraid of?

At the same time, "What's going on?" Suddenly, a young man slowly appeared from the back hall of the lobby.

The young man was dressed in a Versace suit, wore a smile, had a crew cut, and kept his hands in his pockets, exuding a proud aura that kept people at a distance.

Beside him was an elderly man, who looked about sixty-five, with graying hair and a slightly hunched back.

"I am the owner of the Wanqian Grand Hotel, my name is James Thompson!" the young man continued.

James Thompson??? The moment the young man announced his name, almost everyone in the lobby gasped.

James Thompson? One of the Four Young Masters of Chengfeng, James Thompson?!

Wanqian Grand Hotel, as the only ultra five-star hotel in Chengfeng City, naturally did not have an ordinary owner. Its boss was none other than the third young master of one of Chengfeng City's most powerful old families, the The Thompson Family, James Thompson.

James Thompson was also one of the most renowned young masters in all of Chengfeng City, extremely talented in business, and the Wanqian Grand Hotel was just one of his many businesses.

Last year, James Thompson, at not yet thirty years old and with nearly five billion in assets, made it onto the Forbes Young Rich List.

And that wasn't the most terrifying part. The most terrifying thing was, it was said that James Thompson was one of the strongest contenders to become the next head of the The Thompson Family.

If Samuel Bennett was a first-class young master in Chengfeng City, then James Thompson was the best of the best among the elite. Samuel Bennett was far inferior, completely incomparable.

"Liu... Young Master Thompson..." Although Samuel Bennett was in excruciating pain from his broken wrist, he still greeted him respectfully.

The others in the lobby also greeted him one after another, equally respectful. Young Master Thompson! This was a legendary figure in Chengfeng City, and they never expected to see him in person!

"Young Master Thompson! It's actually Young Master Thompson, one of the Four Young Masters of Chengfeng!" Emily Bolton's eyes nearly popped out, staring intently at James Thompson.
