Supreme Mars novel Chapter 113

Rachel was shocked to see that man coming in without permission. "I told you to wait in the reception area. How did you come here?"

The handsome man chuckled despite himself and said, "Well, International Commerce Center used to be mine. I transferred it to someone else for some reasons, but I don’t think that will stop me from entering the building now, will it?"

Rachel threw a surprised look at the man. She never expected that he would be the previous owner of International Commerce Center.

"Benedict, what did you come for?"

Lydia, however, scowled at this man and asked in a cold voice.

The man called Benedict Hudson seemed to be no stranger to Lydia’s attitude towards him. Unaffected, he kept that relaxed smile on his face. "I bought International Commerce Center for you back then. It’s just that my family business asked me back suddenly, and I had no choice but to transfer it to Justin at a low price. Now that I’ve done my job, of course I have to come back to see you."

"I’m married," Lydia said faintly.

"…"

The words hung in the air.

Something flashed across Benedict’s eyes, but soon he recovered himself and said to Lydia with a smile, "You got me wrong, Lydia." He paused and continued, "As your friend, I care about you. No matter what you’ll do in the future, I’ll support you."

"It’s not up to you to care about my wife."

Just at this moment, a stern voice rang out, sending chills down everyone’s spine.

All the people present looked back and saw Leo striding towards them with Forrest behind him.

Lydia was surprised to see Leo. "Why are you here?"

Suddenly, Lydia realized that she only knew Leo worked in International Commerce Center, but had no idea which company he worked in exactly or which post he held.

She winked at Leo, signaling him to leave immediately, but it was too late.

"Your wife?"

Hostility glinted in Benedict’s eyes. He sized Leo up and gave a self-deprecating smile. "Well, I, the heir of the distinguished the Hudson family which is famous around Sallton and Winham, have worked so hard for years chasing the girl I like, but a broke and powerless guy beat me to it. Curse you, cruel fate!"

"How dare you humiliate Mr. Cohen!"

Forrest’s eyes darkened and he growled, but Leo stretched out an arm to stop him. Instead, he walked up to Benedict and narrowed his eyes. "Are you from Sallton and Winham?"

"Exactly," Benedict introduced himself proudly. "The Hudson family from Sallton and Winham!"

Leo remained calm, while Forrest snorted behind him.

The Hudson family from Sallton and Winham? A distinguished family?

The next moment, Leo pointed at Lydia and said flatly, "If you don’t want to destroy the Hudson family with your own hands, stay away from her."

Hearing that, Lydia, Rachel and Benedict were stunned.

Sallton and Winham was a general name for a region including many cities. Among them, the developed ones were Emerdale, City J and City S. Any family from Sallton and Winham on the list was well-established and respectable. Even the Lawson family, one of the four most powerful families from Emerdale, didn’t dare to introduce themselves this way, and how dared Benedict do that?

Benedict laughed out of anger and glared at Leo. "No one has ever talked to the Hudson family like this!"

"But now someone has." Leo said with perfect nonchalance, "And I’m not kidding."

Forrest was ready. As long as Leo gave an order, he would take actions on the Hudson family.

Benedict stared coldly at Leo, hoping Leo would submit to his overwhelming aura, but gradually, he was surprised to find that Leo’s piercing eyes made his heart race instead!

Meanwhile, Benedict found the middle-aged man behind him very familiar. He felt as if he had seen him somewhere before, be failed to remember the details.

Cautious man as he was, Benedict stepped back, turned to Leo and said indifferently, "Remember what you said. You’ll pay for it sooner or later."

"Besides, you don’t deserve Lydia!" Benedict added and left.

Both Lydia and Rachel stared at Leo in astonishment, especially Lydia, because she was aware that the Hudson family was in influential family. She originally intended to defend Leo, but unexpectedly, Benedict ended up leaving first.
