Chapter 449: Competition
Florence knitted her brows unhappily. Benjamin was so despicable that he even threatened rence
with his identity and power.
But would Ernest be frightened? Moreover, in terms of family background, Ernest was actually the only
heir in line of the Turner family and he was much nobler than Benjamin.
But Ernest had disguised himself and he was now rence. He would be in at a disadvantage if he
had a head-on confrontation with Benjamin.
Florence pulled Ernest’s sleeve and said in whisper, “Leave him alone. We can buy the other
ne.”
Ernest shook his head and gently patted the back of Florence’s hand, gesturing her not to worry about
him.
He then nced at Benjamin coldly and curled his lips into an aggressive sneer.
“As for whether I’m powerful enough topete with you or not, you will not know about the result until
thest second.”
Benjamin’s expression turned gloomy and his eyes ferocious.
He had been so straightforward just now, but rence gave a shit to his mercy and even wanted to
compete with him until the end?
The proverb was true – ignorant people fear of nothing. Didn’t he know about the power of the Turner
family?
Since he was seeking death, he would not give any chances to him again. He would have to
experience by himself how it felt when his family was ruined by a top-ss family in the world.
A gush of killing intentions emerged in Benjamin’s heart.
Stanford slightly knitted his brows when watching this scene.
He was the young master of the Fraser family and had been maintaining a good rtionship with the
Turner family. Therefore, he was roughly clear of the strength and ways of doing things of the Turner
family, a small family like the Jenkins family in City N could by no means resist against such a powerful
family.
If Benjamin really did something bad to the family, rence and his family would by no means resist
against it.
In the past, Stanford would show no interest in any outsiders, not to mention being sympathetic and
giving them a hand. But the situation was different now. rence was the one that Florence liked and
maybe he would be his brother-inw in the future.
Therefore, he would not allow Benjamin to do something bad to rence.
“Since you’re now in the Fraser family, you’re all our distinguished guests and we’ll try our best to
entertain you. Please don’t damage the harmony,”
Stanford took a step forward with a gentlemanlike smile on his handsome face. Although his tone of
voice was gentle, it somehow bore a threat.
Benjamin’s expression changed. He hadn’t expected that Stanford would stand out.
ording to Stanford’s words, it was obvious that his connotation that rence was now protected by
the Fraser family and that if he wanted to do something bad to rence, he would offend the family.
It was a trivial matter to ruin an insignificant family of City N, but it would be a disaster if he offended
the Fraser family because of this.
Even though he had a high status in the Tuner family, he could not afford this consequence.
Benjamin had to suppress his surging anger and killing intention. He forced a smile and nodded his
head.
“Mr. Fraser, you’re right. I and Mr. Jenkins all wanted to pay the bill for Florence, and we had a small
quarrel because of this. It was all because both of us sincerely wanted to give a present to Florence,
Mr. Jenkins, you won’t mind it or get mad, right?”
He looked towards Ernest with a smile, seeming to be very generous. If Ernest insisted on this matter
again, he would be shadowed and look mean.
But Benjamin snatched the ne that Ernest selected before and even threatened him. If Ernest
said that he didn’t mind this, it would mean that this matter was a past and that it was simply a small
quarrel.
Benjamin was at the upper hand no matter how Ernest replied it.
Ernest looked at him indifferently and curled his lips into a scornful smile.
He replied in a t tone, “Since Mr. Turner is so gentleman and generous, please give the ne to
me.”
He didn’t reply whether he minded it or not and shifted the topic to the ne.
Benjamin was now in a dilemma, not knowing whether if he should give the ne to rence or
not.
If he gave the ne to him, he would miss the change to gift it to Florence. Originally, he intended
to humiliate rence, but now he was embarrassed. If he refused to give it to him, he would appear to
be mean and hypocritical.
Ernest was much more scheming than Benjamin.
Benjamin’s expression became excessively hideous. He subconsciously tightened his grip on the
locker and almost crushed it.
Ernest put his hands in his pockets with a casual posture and looked at Benjamin with a meaningful
smile as if he was watching the show yed by a funny crown.
Benjamin felt so sulky and was more unwilling to give the ne to Ernest.
He gritted his teeth and said, “Now that we all want to pay the bill and gift this ne to Florence. For
the sake of fairness, I propose to have apetition and the winner can take the ne. How do
you think of it?”
He paused and then added as if he was afraid that Ernest would not agree, “It’s a matter between men
and it will be more meaningful if we can win thepetition with our own abilities. This ne should
be taken by a capable person.”
What an artful sentence!
If Ernest didn’t agree with the proposal, it would be deemed as admitting his ipetence.
Florence knitted her brows tightly, feeling that Benjamin must have some bad intentions and guessing
that he must have prepared many traps for Ernest in thepletion.
She pulled Ernest’s sleeve and looked at him worriedly.
Ernest didn’t care about it at all. He asked in a t tone, “What are the contents for thepetition?”
Obviously, he agreed to thepetition.
Florence felt nervous and stared at Benjamin vigntly.
If he dared to form some ridiculous rules to go hard with Ernest or hurt him, she would not let the
ridiculouspetition to happen even if it meant that she had to give up the ne/
A touch of triumphant smile shed across Benjamin’s eyes. Now that rence had agreed to his
proposal, he would have numerous means to humiliate him.
He said, “Blind Hookey, shooting and racing. Best-of-three-set. Any rejection?”
He had investigated into rence and knew every detail of him. ording to the information he got,
rence was a young master from an ordinarily rich family and he was not good at shooting. Although
he was skilled in driving, he had never taken part in a racing game.
Although Benjamin could not predict the result of the Blind Hookey, he was confident that he would win
the next two sets.
Benjamin thought that rence might hesitate or require him to change the contents and he even
prepared for what he should say to retort him. But to his surprise, rence said, “Okay. There’s a
holiday manor in the vicinity and it is well-equipped. It won’t waste our time. We can go there now.”
Benjamin felt very surprised and pondered whether it was because rence had no sense of it or
because he was so ignorant that he wasn’t afraid of anything.
Did he know that he would definitely be humiliated if he went there?
Nevertheless, now that rence was seeking death, of course Benjamin would not refuse this.
He handed the ne locker to the shop assistant and ordered, “Take the ne and go with us.
Sell it to the winner.”
The shop assistant was bewildered. It was a novel experience for her because she had never expected
that she had to go out with her clients to sell the ne.
But it stipted that the unpaid goods could not be taken out of the store.
“This is my name card.”
Stanford took a step forward and handed a ck name card to the shop assistant.
The whole name card was ck and there was almost no decorative design on it. There was only a
name on it: Stanford Fraser.
“You’re from Fraser family?”
The shop assistant widened her eyes and looked towards Stanford respectfully apprehensively.
Only the members of the Fraser family in this neighborhood were able to use this texture to make name
cards. Moreover, this young man’s surname was Fraser!
They were the master of this city in the dark.

Not to mention taking away a ne, the members of the Fraser family could even take away all the
things in the store.
The shop assistant hurriedly said, “Mister, wait a minute, I will be right there.”
Florence felt surprised. She hadn’t expected that Stanford’s name card was so useful and that it was
even much powerful than a ck card. It she had an opportunityter, maybe she could ask for a card
from her parents. Maybe it would protect her.
