“Good afternoon, Old Mr. Weston.” Benjamin stood up and greeted Norman respectfully.
Norman smiled gently. “Hello Benjamin. Have a seat.
Benjamin sat back on the sofa, and Norman sat down opposite lum.
Tobias stood behind his grandfather.
Norman left all the bodyguards who had been following him outside
There were only Norman, Tobias, and Benjamin in the closed hotel room.
“Benjamin, did you tell anyone about the secret of the Treasure Map!” Norman looked at Benjamin with a burning gaze, as if he could read his mind.
Benjamin replied calmly, “I didn’t tell anyone, Old Mr. Weston,” NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
“Is there anyone else in the Palmers who knows this secret?”
“No, my grandfather only told me and my father.”
“Emm, from today on, you must keep your mouth shut. You cannot tell anyone else about this matter.”
“Don’t worry, Old Mr. Weston. I know it’s a matter of great importance. If word gets out, it will only bring about a fatal disaster.”
“Well, it’s good that you can understand.” Norman nodded.
in public
“By the way, Benjamin, why did you kill Gilmore today?”
Benjamin suddenly glared with hatred in his eyes and declared, “I had an unresolvable beef with him!
“I was about to engage Claire, but Gilmore interfered and wrecked my relationship with her.
“Furthermore, the Gastronova Ventures, which is of utmost importance to the Palmers, went bankrupt due to the Evermore Group, a company he co–founded with Claire.
“He took away the person I love and wrecked my family business, I wish I could kill him on the spot!”
Norman frowned and said with annoyance, “Gilmore is the absolute worst villain I’ve ever come across.
“And I’m absolutely sure he had a hand in my grandfather’s death. Benjamin said through gritted teeth.
Norman pretended to be surprised. “What do you mean, Benjamin?”
Benjamin said fiercely, ‘On the night of my grandfather’s death, my grandfather sent Mr. Merrett and Dean to kill Gilmore.
“However, not only did they fail to take out Gilmore, they got themselves killed by some mysterious guy in a mask.
“My grandfather also died at the hands of that masked man in black.”
What Benjamin said, Norman had already had someone investigate long ago.

But Norman still pretended not to know and asked Benjamin, “Do you know who the masked man in black is, Benjamin?”
Benjamin sneered. “Isn’t that obvious?
“In Oakhaven, there is the only one who doesn’t want Gilmore to be killed by the Palmers, that’s Denton.
“Because Gilmore was his future grandson–in–law.
“And in Oakhaven, Denton is the only one with the capability to kill my grandfather.”
Norman furrowed his brow and said, “That actually makes sense
And as for Mr. Merrett you just mentioned, if I remember correctly, he’s a master in the forearm block of the Black Hawks in Sunsbury, right?”
“Yeah, Mr. Merrett and his senior, Dean, are both experts from the Black Hawks
“Benjamin, your grandfather, and Cooper were killed by Denton. It’s only right for the Westons to support you vengeance, Norman stated, locking eyes with Benjamin
and seek
“But as you know, Denton is a one–generation kingpin in Oakhaven. His power is extraordinary. He reached the level of an internal force martialist decades ago.”
“So, I’m afraid the Westons alone may not be sufficient for your revenge. However, if you can get one person to collaborate with the Westons, we can certainly assist you in avenging the Palmers.”
“Old Mr. Weston, who is this?” Benjamin couldn’t help but ask.
“Lawrence Ray, the top expert in the Black Hawks in Sunsbury, and also Mr. Merrett’s senior, Norman explained.
Benjamin was in a dilemma. “But where are we going to find him?”
Norman laughed and said, “By the way, I just met Lawrence in the hotel, and I’ve invited him to join us for dinner later.
“So, when we sit down for dinner later, you can simply tell Lawrence what you mentioned earlier.
“I believe he’ll certainly seek vengeance for his two juniors who met such a tragic end, and he’s willing to collaborate with me to confront Denton.”
With excitement in his eyes, Benjamin promptly replied, “Old Mr. Weston, I will make sure to convince Mr. Ray to seck vengeance for Mr. Merrett and Dean during the dinner.”
Norman smiled. “Well, whether you can get rid of Denton and Gilmore and avenge the Palmers depends on whether you can persuade Lawrence or not.”
“Knock, knock!” At this moment, someone knocked on the door
Tobias looked at the door and asked, “Who is it?”
“Mr. Weston, I’m Carl. The banquet is ready. Please have a seat,” Mr. Johnson announced from outside the door.
“Carl, go ahead and fetch Mr. Ray and his son, Clive,” Norman instructed
Outside the door, Mr. Johnson said, “Certainly, sir.”
Norman stood up from the sofa, looked at Benjamin, and said, “Let’s go to the dinner hall, Benjamin.”
“Alright, Old Mr. Weston.”
Then Norman, Tobias, and Benjamin walked out of the room and went to the private room where the banquet was held.
As they entered the private room, they noticed the table was already filled with delectable dishes and fine wine.
At the same time, Mr. Johnson had escorted Lawrence and Clive, to the room.
“Please have a seat. Mr. Ray!”
“Clive, please have a seat, too!”
Norman greeted Lawrence and his son with a gentle smile.
Everyone took their seats.
After several rounds of toasts.
Norman smiled and said to Lawrence, “Mr. Ray, I haven’t introduced Mr. Benjamin Palmer to you yet.”
Lawrence glanced at Benjamin and inquired, “The Palmers? Is Cooper the butler for the Palmers?”
Benjamin hastily replied, “Mr. Ray, Cooper is our butler, and I’ve always considered him part of our family. It’s just that the night before yesterday, he…”
At this point, Benjamin couldn’t bring himself to continue. His eyes were filled with hatred and grief.
“What happened?” Lawrence asked.
Benjamin clenched his teeth and uttered, “Mr. Merrett was murdered by malevolent people the night before yesterday.”
“Are you implying that Denton from the Carters is the one responsible for killing Cooper and Dean?” Lawrence asked with an air of indifference.
Benjamin was a little surprised. “You already know?”
“I visited the Palmers last night. Your two uncles readily told me what happened and the reasons behind their deaths.”
Benjamin looked at Mr. Ray with joy and said fearlessly, “Mr. Ray, I’m ready to seek vengeance for Mr. Merrett alongside you.”
“You’re no match for Denton and the experts in his mansion, Benjamin. I had a close relationship with your grandfather while he was alive, and now that he’s gone, the Westons won’t stand idly by. We’re prepared to collaborate with Mr. Ray to eliminate Denton.”
Norman spoke to Benjamin with a righteous expression.
Lawrence smiled and said, “It’s only Denton. There’s no need for all of you to come together. I can kill him alone.
“Also, Gilmore Reed, whom Denton is protecting, must die!”
At the mention of Gilmore, Lawrence’s eyes gleamed with a chilling sharpness.
