Chapter 26: Don’t pretend to be a fool
But on Abbott Benson’s side, he hung up Cecilia Glendon’s phone and hadn’t even put it away when he saw Benson senior walking up to him, his old face looking ironic.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
“You’re calling that woman, aren’t you!” As he approached, Benson senior asked in a cold voice.
“Grandpa, I already told you that I have someone I like.” Abbott Benson said faintly.
“That’s the woman you like?” Elder Benson froze for a moment.
Abbott Benson didn’t say anything.
In his mind, it wasn’t quite a liking, but at least it was something he wanted to be with, not tied to Jamie Hall.
“And what lady is she?” Elder Benson’s face eased a little.
“She’s divorced.” Abbott Benson said.
“Absolutely not!” Elder Benson’s face, which had just been eased, became rigid again, “How can our Benson family marry such a woman as a daughter-in-law!”
“I don’t like Jamie Hall,” Abbott Benson said with an expressionless face, “I’ll break off the engagement with her.”
“Bastard!” Master Benson raised his walking stick and struck Abbott Benson, but he was stopped by the butler who was following behind him.
“Master, you think twice …” the butler grabbed Benson senior’s walking stick and advised.
“Get out of the way!” He was furious, a Taylor face were red with anger, “See I do not kill this bastard today! A good marriage just because of his crap to get yellow!”
Abbott Benson very calmly from the sofa to stand up, after finishing the clothes, said: “If there is no other business, I have to go to the company.”
After saying that, Abbott Benson then ignored Benson senior and walked directly towards the door, until the door closed, he could still hear Benson senior’s angry roar coming from inside.
He raised an eyebrow, just as he expected, if grandpa knew about Cecilia Glendon’s existence, he would not allow it.
That was a difficult thing to do.
Abbott Benson walked to his parked car in the yard and was about to open the door and sit in it when he suddenly saw Jack Benson’s car drive in from outside and he paused.
Jack Benson is his cousin, a year older than him, and now also works at the Benson, but doing something unrelated, they have always been considered a rivalry, competing for the executive power of the Benson.
The executive power is still in the hands of the Benson senior, although the Benson is now Abbott Benson in charge, but as long as the old look a word, he can leave from the Benson at any time.
This is also the reason why he agreed to the Benson senior’s engagement with Jamie Hall this time.
“Abbott .” Jack Benson got out of the car and greeted him with a smile, “What brings you back today?”
Abbott Benson closed the open car door and looked at Jack Benson lightly, “You did the news thing, didn’t you?”
Jack Benson froze: “What news you say? I’ve been so busy today, I haven’t had time to watch the news.”
“Don’t pretend you don’t know here.” Abbott Benson said indifferently, “I know it’s you, and although you’re still not very smart this time, it’s a lot better than the last few times.”
Jack Benson was still smiling, “Abbott, you can eat your food, but you can’t talk nonsense. I’ve been busy at the office all day, I don’t know what’s going on.”
“Whether you know or not, I’m not going to let this go.” Abbott Benson opened the car door to get into the car, but just before sitting on it, and then stopped to look at Jack Benson, “Jack Benson, the first few times I can not bother with you, but only this time.”
