Even so, Gary Brown was still afraid.
To take action against someone of much higher status than himself, for Gary, it was undoubtedly a huge risk.
“If it were known, that… would cost our lives…” Gary’s face was filled with horror.
Benjamin Hill snorted and said, “To do great things, risks must be taken. If you want to live like this for the rest of your life, you can refuse.”
After finishing, Benjamin turned his head to the side and said no more.
Gary Brown sat there for a long time without speaking.
After a long while, Gary looked at Benjamin and said, “Let me think about it. I’ll give you my answer tomorrow.”
“Alright.” Benjamin nodded.
Then he chuckled and said, “There aren’t many opportunities in life. You’d better think carefully.”
“I know.” Gary nodded and then left the bar.
Benjamin sneered.
He believed that Gary would definitely agree.
Because someone as greedy as Gary could not resist temptation.
Human greed is the biggest weakness to be exploited.
Benjamin’s idea was simple, just find someone to kidnap Emily Taylor, and when the Taylor family was furious, they would take it out on Ethan Smith.
Even if, by luck, Ethan was forgiven by the Taylor family, Emily would definitely be taken back to Capital City.
By then, wouldn’t Ethan be like a toy in their hands, to be easily manipulated?
Moreover, even if it was discovered by the Taylor family, the Hill family could deny everything and blame it all on Gary Brown.
“I’m a fucking genius!” Benjamin couldn’t help but laugh proudly.
The next day.
Ethan Smith returned to River City from Shiglance City.
This time, he had a great harvest. The herbs given by Leonard Schultz and the plant from Anson Gutierrez were enough for Ethan to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage.
“I wonder how long it will take to go from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage.” Ethan thought quietly.
So before that, Ethan must make some arrangements in advance.
He put the herbs away temporarily, and then planned to find an ideal place.
“If only I could live in that villa belonging to Benjamin.” Ethan secretly thought.
The spiritual environment there was the best Ethan had ever seen, but it was a pity that their relationship made it impossible for Ethan to live there.
At this moment.
A Range Rover suddenly arrived in front of the gate.
The car stopped in front of Ethan, and then a man in a black suit got out.
“Is Mr. Smith at home?” The man in the black suit asked at the door. Ethan frowned and walked forward, saying, “I am. What can I do for you?”
The man in the black suit politely said, “Our Mr. Richardson invites you to dinner tonight. I don’t know if Mr. Smith has time.”
“Mr. Richardson? Uncle Richardson?” Ethan suddenly recalled this person.
Since last time, there wasn’t much friendship between the two of them.
“Is it for the Hill family?” Ethan secretly thought.
Uncle Richardson had a good relationship with the Taylor family, and Ethan had already slapped his face last time.
So after thinking about it, for Emily’s sake, Ethan decided to accept the invitation.
“Alright, tell me the time and place,” Ethan said.
The man in the black suit quickly said, “Tonight at eight o’clock, at Fish Restaurant.”
“Fine, I’ll be there punctually,” Ethan replied.
After the man in the black suit left, Edward Green rushed up.
“Mr. Smith, this Mr. Richardson and Stephen Hill are close friends. I’m afraid
Ethan smiled faintly, “Doesn’t matter, I believe they won’t do anything to me.”
Edward wanted to say something else, but Ethan waved him off.
On the other side.
Gary Brown and Sylvia Johnson lay on the bed, Gary continuously smoking, his brow furrowed.
“Honey, what’s wrong?” Sylvia asked playfully while lying on top of Gary.
Seeing Sylvia in front of him, Gary suddenly felt disgusted.
He regretted more and more marrying such a vase-like woman.
“No, I can’t be content with the status quo!” Gary made up his mind, threw the cigarette on the ground, picked up his phone, and ran to the balcony.
He made a call to Benjamin Hill.
After the call connected, Gary said on the phone, “Mr. Hill, I agree.”
Benjamin laughed loudly on the other end, “I knew you’d make the right choice.”
Gary said solemnly, “Mr. Hill, I have some conditions.”
“Go ahead,” Benjamin agreed.
“If we succeed, our Brown family must cooperate deeply with the Hill family,” Gary said.
Benjamin chuckled, “Of course, no problem. Don’t worry, our Hill family will never treat you unfairly.”
Gary continued, “If we fail, you have to prepare one hundred million in cash for me and guarantee my safe departure.”
“Hahaha, no problem!” Benjamin laughed, “But this matter must never be linked to our Hill family, or you know the consequences.” “Okay,” Gary nodded in agreement.
After hanging up the phone, Benjamin couldn’t help but sneer.
If the plan failed, give you cash? You might as well wait for your death! I’ll have washed my hands of this mess by then!
“Just wait and see. There will be a good show,” Benjamin laughed triumphantly.
At night.
Ethan packed a simple gift and headed to the Fish Restaurant.
At the entrance of the Fish Restaurant, someone was already waiting. As soon as they saw Ethan, they quickly walked up and said, “Our Mr. Richardson has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Ethan nodded, and followed the attendant inside to the private room.
“It’s right here, Mr. Smith, please come in,” the attendant politely said.
Ethan scanned the surroundings and, after making sure there were no dangers, pushed the door open and entered.
The moment the door opened, Ethan’s face turned cold.
“As expected,” Ethan said coldly.
Then, Ethan looked at Uncle Richardson and said, “Uncle Richardson, if you want to have dinner with me, I’ll be happy to; but if you have other intentions, I’m sorry, I won’t accompany you.”
After saying these words, Ethan turned to leave.
Uncle Richardson hurriedly called out, “Ethan, don’t be so impatient. Could you give me some more time, please?”
Ethan stopped in his tracks, looking at Uncle Richardson with a smile and said, “Uncle Richardson, have you forgotten what you said? You said that the Hill family would never let me go, and now, what’s the meaning of this?”
Uncle Richardson couldn’t help but blush. How could he have known that the Hill family was no match for Ethan?
“Ethan, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests,” Stephen Hill finally spoke up.
He stood up and said, “It was my mistake before. This time, I asked Uncle
Richardson to set up this gathering specifically to apologize to you!”
“Apologize to me?” Ethan rubbed his ears, seemingly unable to believe it.
Uncle Richardson waved, “Sit down first, sit down..”
