Chapter 93 Tainted Reputation

“Am I right?” Grace’s mocking voice came through the phone.

Yet, Benjamin showed no remorse. “You’re not capable of fighting Richard now. I’m doing this for your

own good.”

“Save your hypocrisy and let him come at me!”

The call abruptly ended. Benjamin stared at the darkening screen with anger after being rejected.

He thought, “This stupid woman! Let’s see how you’ll handle this!”

Just then, his surbordinate reported from the front seat, “Mr. Hawkins, Larry just sent a text. He said

there are some issues with the project in Frenda, and he needs you to go there in

person.”

Benjamin closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “Okay. Arrange the earliest flight.”

The business in Frenda was important, which was why he had entrusted Larry with overseeing

“That’s right! How can you be so hard on your dear little brother? I’m going to tell Aaron and Grandpa!”

Seeing Grace standing up for him, Caleb immediately counterattacked.

I’ll cover the expenses.”

“You!” Caleb turned to Grace. “Scold him, Gracie!”

The next morning, Emily called. “Babe! The internet is going crazy right now!”

“It’s not just criticism; it’s turned into full–blown hatred!” Emily was frantic.

“I asked Zoey to take it down, but she said she couldn’t. Deleting comments doesn’t have much effect
