Beside them, Maria Sinclair started screaming as soon as Bella Green made a move.
Until the security guards came up, she shrieked, "Quick, quick, quick, pull him away, he actually hit Mr. Bennett’s brother, call the police, call the police immediately."
Dealing with one Jeremiah Bennett was more than enough, but with these burly security guards, Bella Green was at her wit’s end.
"Grab this bastard for me, beat him, beat him to death." Jeremiah Bennett covered his chest, struggling to stand up, and shouted, pointing at Bella Green.
For a moment, the whole president’s office was noisy and bustling.
"Who are you trying to beat to death?" An icily cold voice cut through the noise.
The president’s office fell silent instantly. Jeremiah Bennett, who was so loud just a moment ago, instinctively shrunk his neck, as quiet as a chicken.
Mason Bennett had returned just after finishing a meeting and heard the loud shouts and curses.
Upon reaching the reception room, he saw the little thing surrounded by several security guards, and Jeremiah Bennett on the side still shouting for his death?
In an instant, Mason Bennett’s eyes turned dark as the deep sea under the night sky, as if at any moment a ferocious beast might surge from the depths to annihilate everything.
"Speak, who are you going to beat to death?"
Seeing Jeremiah Bennett not speaking, Mason Bennett shouted sternly, startling him into a flinch.
Swallowing hard, Jeremiah Bennett felt that this wasn’t his fault, so he gained some confidence and straightened his back.
"It’s this guy, sneaking up here, I just asked him to leave, and he hit me, cousin, he almost shattered my chest, you have to avenge me."
Bella Green stood among the security guards, pursing her lips and looking at Mason Bennett, without refuting Jeremiah Bennett’s words.
She wanted to know how Mason Bennett would react, whether he was angry because she had hit Jeremiah Bennett, or...
There wouldn’t be such a possibility of ’or’.
Although at the beginning, the intention was indeed to take this opportunity to make Mason Bennett dislike her, at this moment, for some unknown reason, she felt a bit afraid, afraid of seeing the displeased and reproachful look from Mason Bennett.
She tightly clenched her fists, maintaining an air of calm as she looked at Mason Bennett, while her heart was gripped with tension over the uncertain outcome.
Finally, Mason Bennett’s gaze landed on her, those eyes were too cold and deep for her to fathom his emotions.
"Come here." The man’s voice was still cold.
Bella Green hesitated for a moment, then obediently walked over.
Looking at the little figure barely reaching his chest, Mason Bennett glanced up and down, seeing that she was not injured, the chill around him dissipated slightly.
Upon hearing those two words, Bella Green’s heart inexplicably trembled, and she clenched her hands even tighter. After a while, she lifted her head, curled her lips into a smile, her jet-black almond eyes were like glass.
Bella Green was slightly stunned, not expecting him to ask this.
Jeremiah Bennett was also surprised, hurriedly speaking, "Brother, it was him..."
"Did I ask you to speak?" Mason Bennett shot him a sideways glance, his tone cold as shattered ice.
Jeremiah Bennett shivered all over with fear, and the memory of being scolded by Mason Bennett to tears a few years ago surged into his mind, making him so scared that he didn’t dare to breathe, nervously looking at Bella Green.
His cousin, surely he wouldn’t believe a stranger, right?
Thinking this way, he felt at ease, no matter how this kid put it, he just wouldn’t admit it, that was the key.
Once away from Nathan Bennett, he had a hundred ways to teach this reckless thing a lesson.
Bella Green squinted at those vicious eyes.
"What if I said he bullied me?"
Bella Green didn’t know what mindset she was in when she asked this question, but when she came to her senses, the words had already slipped out.
