Chapter 1881
Southeast Bank was well known in Midwich, but because it was a local bank in Midwich, it did not have
branches in other Dragon Kingdom cities.
However, one could not underestimate Southeast Bank because it was trusted and loved by Midwich
citizens. So the number of deposits in Southeast Bank wasrge, almostparable to Dragon
Kingdom’s national banks.
“Mr. Potter, can’t you bend the rules a little? Ourpany needs this loan, and we’ve given you ess
to ourpany’s detailed information. You can also see ourpany’s financial and operational
status. To tell you the truth, if those banks hadn’t withdrawn their loans, ourpany wouldn’t be in
financial trouble at all, and I wouldn’t be asking you for help…”
Hearing this, The director of Southeast Bank, Oliver, gave a long exhale and said, “Mr. Liamson, I’m
older than you, so I’ll call you by your first name… Benji, it’s not that I don’t want to help you; it’s that I
can’t.”
“Why?” Benji looked in confusion at Oliver, the director of Southeast Bank.
Oliver was silent for a moment before finally saying, “Benji, you’re not stupid. Have you not wondered
why the several banks that have loaned money to yourpany suddenly withdrew their loans
together? Have you thought of the reason?”
Benji’s face instantly turned ghastly at Oliver’s words.
It was not that Benji had not thought about it. He had thought about it, of course. He had considered it.
As a proprietor and the chairman of Liamson Security Services, Benji would be an idiot not to think
about it. However, he could not figure out why. He could not understand it.
He ran a business in Midwich, and it was a security business. He had never offended anyone, yet this
had happened, which puzzled him very much.
“Benji, haven’t you figured out why?” Oliver asked tentatively.
“No…” Benji said bitterly.

Oliver sighed and said, “Alright, let me give you some tips… What day was this dayst year? What
have you done?”
Benji frowned as he recalled it.
He vaguely remembered that this dayst year seemed to be the day of the Sheldon family’s heiress’
birthday party. He also brought his female secretary, Amelia Gomez, to Ms. Sheldon’s birthday party
with a gift. However, nothing much seemed to have happened at the birthday party.
Oliver was amused and said, “Benji, how could you be so foolish… Let me tell you straight… At the
Sheldon family’s heiress, Luna Sheldon’s birthday party, Luna asked you for a dance in front of all the
guests, but you said you don’t know how to dance…”
“She asked if you have a girlfriend, and you said no, but then you said you have no ns for a
rtionship anytime soon. When her birthday party was almost over, she invited you to the Sheldon
family’s friends and family gathering three dayster. You rejected, stating that you are too busy with
work to attend…”
Oliver stopped at that. Benji finally realized it.
Oliverughed wryly and said, “You might not know what happenedter… Because you have rejected
her kindness several times in a row, the Sheldon family’s heiress-Luna has be a joke in Midwich’s
high society. Many people also joked that she’s a bad judge of character. She confessed her affection
but was rejected… Later, Ms. Sheldon became depressed and even tried to kill herself. Do you think
the Sheldon family would be nice to you?”
