CHAPTER 373: CHAPTER 373: AS LONG AS YOU ARE HAPPY

"Who’s an old acquaintance with you?" Emerie’s face changed, and she scolded angrily.

At this moment, Benjamin stood in front of Emerie, protecting her: "Stephen, talk to me if you have anything to discuss, don’t bother my wife."

"Oh, you two are really deeply affectionate as husband and wife." Stephen said with a smile, "Emerie, you’re really lucky."

"Benjamin, I’ve been here for so long, have you made up your mind yet?" If before Stephen was still nostalgic about Emerie, now with everything that’s happened to him, what’s beauty worth?

Money is still the most important!

"Whatever it is, we’ll discuss it. Don’t drag Emerie into this." Benjamin frowned and said sternly.

"There’s nothing to discuss, five million. If it’s one penny less, just wait and see the good show!" Stephen said bluntly, leaving Benjamin no room to negotiate.

"What? Five million? Are you crazy?" Emerie shouted angrily before Benjamin could speak.

Five million, that’s not a small amount.

"Why? Is five million a lot? Since you think it’s a lot, let me ask, who is Sophie Wilson’s real child, worth you going to such lengths to leave property for her back then." Stephen has his trump card, so how could he be afraid of Emerie and Benjamin not complying?

"You, you’re just a scoundrel!" Emerie was so angry her face turned white.

"Emerie, it’s okay, money is a minor issue, don’t get upset." Benjamin hurriedly comforted Emerie, then turned to Stephen and yelled angrily, "Shut up, it’s just money, right? I’ll give it to you now, from now on, you must disappear from Imperial City, or... don’t blame me for being impolite!"

"Don’t worry, as soon as I get the money, I’ll leave immediately." Stephen promised.

Aside from the one million he gave to Grace, the remaining four million is enough for him to live on.

With the online scandal becoming so big, taking the money is perfect for him to lay low elsewhere.

It has to be said that Grace and Stephen truly are father and daughter, even their ideas are the same.

Benjamin quickly wrote a check to Stephen, and after Stephen confirmed it was correct, he flicked the check and smiled smugly: "Thanks, Mr. Walton, I’m leaving now, no need to see me out."

"He, he... why did you just give him the money?" Emerie angrily pointed in the direction Stephen was leaving, questioning Benjamin.

Benjamin let out a bitter laugh, shaking his head: "What else can we do? Should we let Stephen spill the beans about what happened back then?"

"Let Ophelia know about her origins?" Benjamin said helplessly, "You care so much about Ophelia daily, of course you don’t want her to be harassed by Stephen, just give him some money then."

"Why give him money, all that money was earned through your hard work!" Emerie was furious, stomping her feet unwillingly.

Benjamin chuckled, pulled her into his arms, and said with a smile: "No problem, I’ll just do more business."

"Won’t that still tire you out?" Emerie said painfully, "Business isn’t that easy to do."

"Not necessarily." Benjamin said with a smile, "Now James is trying to secure cooperation with Peace Group, and if he marries Ophelia, the cooperation will be guaranteed. Making money would be fairly easy then."

"Of course, I don’t have that capability, but if I work overtime, do a bit more here and there, I’ll earn it back. Don’t worry." Benjamin gazed deeply at Emerie, "As long as you’re happy."
