Chapter 196: Bennit's Domineering
"Is it done? If it's done, hurry up and get out!" Bennit's dissatisfied voice came through the phone.
"Are you outside the door?" Ethan Wilson glanced outside and inadvertently caught everyone's attention. Of course, he couldn't see what was happening outside.
"Of course, do you expect me to personally come in and invite you?" Bennit snorted unhappily.
"Well, then you might have to wait a while. I want to leave now, but I reckon some people won't let me!"
Ethan Wilson smirked, as he always ignored Bennit's attitude, and turned his gaze to Marlon Hughes and Cherry, smilingly said.
He said this not only for Bennit to hear, but also for them.
"Ethan Wilson, stop pretending here. Nobody can save you today! You dare to cause trouble in the Miller family and ruin the engagement banquet between the Yan and Zhao families. You must be held accountable for this!"
Cherry, as Ethan Wilson expected, was not going to let him leave so easily.
If Ethan Wilson caused such a scene and left, it would be a complete loss of face for both the Yan and Zhao families, and their reputation would be greatly damaged.
"I'm sorry, but not only am I leaving today, I'm also taking Chloe with me! What are you going to do about it?"
Ethan Wilson casually waved the hand holding Chloe Miller's hand, openly provoking them.
"Ethan Wilson, why don't you leave first and save your grandfather!"
Chloe Miller nervously suggested.
She was afraid that because of her, Ethan Wilson wouldn't be able to leave, and then what would happen to her grandfather?
She didn't want to see any harm come to the two men she cared most about!
"Don't worry, today I will take you away and nobody can stop me! Besides, you just want to see your own grandfather, who has the right to stop you?"
Ethan Wilson shook his head in a domineering manner, looking disdainfully at Marlon Hughes and Munro.
"Well, you can try. Regardless of whether Chloe Miller wants to or not, she is now the future daughter-in-law of my family, the Ashford family. If you dare to take someone from my family, don't blame me for not holding back!"
At this point, Marlon Hughes took a step forward, already finding what seemed like a sufficient reason to make a move.
Although a master level couldn't easily attack an ordinary warrior, it was a different story if the other party provoked the master level's reputation and actively sought trouble!
Marlon Hughes didn't care whether Master KuYi would intervene or not; he would definitely take the risk.
"You heard it. It's not that I don't want to come out, it's that they don't want me to leave!"
Ethan Wilson sighed helplessly and continued speaking into the still connected phone.
"At that moment, Bennit, dressed in military uniform, had already appeared at the entrance of the hall.
"Bennit, what a rare visitor you are! Why did you suddenly drop by without notifying us?" Despite the puzzled expressions of the others, Munro quickly went to greet him, politely extending his greetings.
"I'm just here to pick someone up, no need to make a fuss!" Even facing Munro, Bennit maintained his indifferent demeanor.
For the first time, Ethan Wilson found Bennit particularly pleasing to the eye!
Munro's mind raced. Upon learning earlier that Ethan Wilson was the young physician who had saved the old master's life, he was caught in a mix of shock and dilemma, inadvertently overlooking a very important piece of information.
Not only did Ethan Wilson save the old master's life, but he was also said to be the physician himself!
Now, with Bennit personally coming to pick him up and his earlier words in the yard, it undoubtedly confirmed this point.
"Bennit, the person you're picking up wouldn't happen to be Ethan Wilson, would it?" Marlon Hughes frowned, his expression turning grim, while Cherry beside him was equally unsettled. They had not expected Ethan Wilson to have Bennit as a backer, making the situation a bit more complicated!
When did the Walker family become so close to Ethan Wilson?
"That's right. We're pressed for time, so we won't disturb you all. Ethan Wilson, come with me now!" Bennit simply explained, his tone leaving no room for doubt, and he indeed had the qualifications to not regard Marlon Hughes and the others highly."
Carlos pondered Bennit's initial statement, and couldn't help but ask Clarence, surprised.
"I'm not sure either. Remington said earlier that he wanted this kid to help treat an old friend. I heard that the friend has been ill recently, so it's highly likely! This kid is something, waiting for us here!"
Clarence, barely suppressing his shock, showed a hint of pride and approval on his face.
"It looks like I'm really going to lose!"
Carlos nodded, suddenly realizing this, and said, "That's true, but there's an unstoppable smile on his face. Obviously, even if he loses to Ethan Wilson, he is delighted, not at a loss!"
Just as Ethan Wilson said, in fact, regardless of winning or losing, Carlos would never be a true loser!
To a large extent, Carlos was always in a winning position. Even if he lost, he still won!
He lost the bet, but he won Ethan Wilson!
"Wait a minute! Bennit, no matter how important Ethan Wilson's business is, I'm afraid I can't give you face today! He caused trouble in the Miller family and ruined the engagement banquet between the son and the Miller family's daughter. This matter must be addressed! We can't just let Ethan Wilson leave like this!"
At this moment, Marlon Hughes made up his mind to keep Ethan Wilson, directly refusing Bennit's request.
"Oh? Then let me make it clear. No matter what disputes exist between Ethan Wilson and you, you can settle personal grievances after I finish my business here. I have orders from my superiors to pick up Ethan Wilson. It's my task! If anything obstructs the mission, then Marlon Hughes, you will be responsible for it, right?"
Even more unexpectedly, Bennit retorted without hesitation, insisting on taking Ethan Wilson away, showing no room for negotiation.
"Bennit, this is a bit unreasonable, aren't you taking advantage of your position? Aren't you afraid that the Four Great Families will jointly report you to the military?"
Cherry, now fully committed, firmly took Marlon Hughes' side. The alliance between the two families was crucial, and even Bennit couldn't stop it. Between Bennit and Marlon Hughes, she had to make a choice. Otherwise, it would all be in vain, and the situation would not end well for either side!
She would never allow such a thing to happen!
"Hehe...if you want to sue, go ahead and sue. Honestly, I was ordered to take Ethan Wilson away by my old man and it was also the task Mr. Grant gave me! If you dare, go ahead and sue my old man and Mr. Grant too!" Bennit said in a mocking tone, unaffected by the situation.
