Chapter 629 Infuriated by This Woman
Benjamin thought, 'Has Sarah lost her mind or something?
'She came in here yelling at me for no reason at all!'
"I wasn't wrong, was I?" Sarah, seeing his self-righteous attitude, felt her anger flare up even more. She sneered and said, "You know exactly what you've done! Now that the Valencia family is in disrepute, are you satisfied? You dug up something that was properly handled years ago just to make trouble!"
Benjamin genuinely had no idea what she was talking about.
But after listening for a while, he realized that the Valencia family must be facing some kind of crisis.
And Sarah thought he was behind it.
He questioned her, "You're so sure that I'm the one working against the Valencia family."
Benjamin kept his eyes on hers as he spoke.
Her eyes were clear and bright, but there wasn't a hint of doubt. She said, "If it's not you, then who else? You're just going against me."
Benjamin felt a surge of frustration. When had he ever looked down on her?
His voice deepened, and seriously stated, "It has nothing to do with me."
She emotionally accused, "I don't believe you! Benjamin, what exactly are you trying to do? Just say it."
Sarah took a deep breath but still couldn't suppress her anger. She said, "Mr. Harrington, if you have a big problem with me, you can come at me directly. Don't drag the Valencia family into this. This company isn't just mine, it's Antonio's, and it's the heart and soul of everyone in the Valencia family. You can't destroy it just because of your personal vendetta!"
As she spoke, the pain in her eyes was unmistakable.
Her eyes were red, trying to hold back tears that wouldn't fall.
Seeing her like this, Benjamin suddenly realized that what she wanted to say wasn't "everyone in the Valencia family," but "Antonio."
The Valencia family was founded by Antonio himself, and it had survived many crises to get to what it is today. So, when she said it was everyone's heart and soul, she really meant it was Antonio's.
A few days ago, when The Jerrett Group had issues, she hadn't come to question him like this.
In the end, Sarah got angry because it was Antonio's company! She worked tirelessly, giving her all, just to protect the company for the already deceased Antonio!
Antonio.
Him again!
Benjamin's anger could no longer be contained, it surged to his head, making him lose his rationality.
He stepped closer to Sarah, sneering, "You're right, it was me. I planned everything. So what?! I want the Valencia family, what can you do about it?! You're just an ant under my foot, you can't struggle. If Antonio were still here, maybe he could fight me, but you! I suggest you give up."
Every word was dripping with sarcasm.
Sarah was trembling with rage.
Looking at the gloomy face in front of her, it was exactly the same as the one she thought about day and night.
But everything he brought her was a disaster.
"I used to think you were a lot like Antonio." She laughed at herself, taking a few steps back, staring at Benjamin with extreme disappointment, saying, "But it turns out, you can't even compare to a single finger of his! At least he would never do something so despicable behind someone's back!"
He retorted, sarcastically, "I'm not as good as him!"
Benjamin was so angry that he was grinding his teeth, and words slipped out uncontrollably.
"He was so capable, yet he couldn't even protect his own woman!" He sneered disdainfully and said, "It's bad enough that he's dead, but he left you with this broken-down company, the Valencia family, making you suffer to keep his legacy alive."
Before he could finish, Sarah stepped forward and slapped him hard.
"I won't let you talk about him like that!" she stated, furiously.
She was so angry that her breathing became rapid, and she didn't regret hitting him.
No one could insult Antonio! Benjamin least of all!
Benjamin's face was turned to the side from the force of the slap, and he stood there motionless for a moment.
He couldn't believe that Sarah had actually dared to hit him!
No one had ever dared to hit him!
"How dare you?!" he yelled, angrily
Benjamin's face darkened, like storm clouds before a thunderstorm, making it hard to breathe. He grabbed Sarah's wrist in an instant, his eyes full of rage, and shouted, "Sarah! You and your company are finished!"
"You're crazy!" Sarah wasn't afraid of him. She shook off his hand and stepped back, saying, "I'm not afraid of you! Benjamin, I'm telling you, doing things like this will send you straight to hell!"
Benjamin reached out to grab her again, but Sarah dodged and bumped into the coffee table behind her.
The impact was so strong that her smooth calf immediately got scraped, and blood started to ooze out.
She winced in pain, instinctively furrowing her brows.
Benjamin, who had been looking fierce, felt a pang of concern when he saw her hurt. He became even more agitated and immediately stepped forward to ask, "Are you okay?"
"Get away from me!" she snapped at him.
Sarah didn't want him to see her injury at all. She stood up, enduring the pain, and said, "Whether I'm okay or not is none of your business!"
Her eyes were full of wariness and anger, as if she were looking at an enemy. She accusingly stated, "I've got you figured out now, you're just a despicable person! Stop pretending to be so righteous in front of me! Use whatever tricks you have! "
After that, she decisively walked out of the office, her steps unsteady because of her injured leg.
But she still slammed the door shut with a loud bang.
Benjamin stood there with his eyelid twitching.
He raised his hand to pinch the bridge of his nose, feeling his blood pressure rise.
He was absolutely infuriated by Sarah!
And along with that, he felt a sense of unjust frustration!
He would have already taken over both companies if the companies were not related to Sarah!
It was all because of her that he hadn't done anything yet!
And what did he get in return? She didn't appreciate it at all and even yelled at him like that!
Benjamin, unable to contain his anger, swept everything within reach off the desk, the loud crashes making everyone outside jump in fear.
After smashing everything, Benjamin slumped onto the couch, feeling empty inside.
He couldn't muster any strength and just wanted to do nothing.
For him who loved his work, this was unprecedented.
Just then, the TV screen opposite him suddenly showed news about the Valencia family, involving a negative incident from a few years ago. The family of a worker who had an accident back then was now coming forward to "reveal the truth" and seek justice.
Benjamin watched the TV screen thoughtfully, his deep eyes flickering.
Now he understood why Sarah had been so angry earlier.
But he still felt a bit strange.
The Valencia family must have other enemies!
Such tactics could only be the work of a competitor trying to bring them down.
Letting public opinion and rumors slowly erode a company's reputation and foundation, and then they finally achieve their goal without having to do much.
And Benjamin immediately thought of someone who was known for using such methods.
