Supreme Mars novel Chapter 157

Benedict’s words attracted the eyes onto him, and even Leo narrowed eyes and scanned him.

“Proposal?”

Rebecca and Patricia felt confusion with his words, as well as other people in the Ford family. “This is…?”

Caroline took Benedict’s arm in an affectionate way and introduced him to everyone with a happy face, “Dad, mom, aunts and elders, he is Benedict Hudson, the eldest son of the Hudson family. And he is my boyfriend.”

What she said shocked the present.

Rebecca, Patricia and others looked at each other.

With their status, they had no access to the Hudson family and they thought this man was from a rich family.

Only Jayden got up suddenly, walked quickly to Benedict, and held his hand tightly, “You are... you are the eldest son of Ewan Hudson!”

“Exactly!”

Facing Jayden’s inquiry, Benedict smiled faintly, “Mr. Ford, you don’t have to be so excited and we will be family soon. Caroline’s grandpa is also my grandpa.”

“Good, good, good!” Jayden said with a happy face. He then turned to Rebecca and laughed. “Rebecca, I was so opposed to your marriage to that old loser before. But now it’s not so bad, at least you have a good daughter.”

“As long as Caroline marries into the Hudson family, the Ford family will get a relationship with the Hudson family. At that time, there will be one more rich family in Emerdale city.

Rebecca was also very excited, “Is it true? Are you really going to marry into a rich family?”

“Of course!”

Caroline said with a smile, “I didn’t tell you about that because I am afraid you will disagree. Besides, we just began to date, and it’s too early to tell the family. But I never expected that Benedict would make a proposal first.”

Caroline’s voice became lower and lower, and her face got blushed. She lowered head shyly.

Benedict was surrounded. Although he coped calmly, the dismissive look in his eyes was hidden deeply.

If not his father urged him to make a proposal in the Ford family, he will never marry Caroline.

Recently, the Hudson family met some hinders while developing the market in Emerdale city. The Hudson family managed to have a meeting with the four families in the city, but failed. Besides, they even offended some local big shot.

All the companies the Hudson family wanted to cooperate refused the cooperation. What’s more, the big shot declared that the Hudson family will never find a corporation who dare to cooperate with them.

Stephen Hudson worried about this thing very much. He was so shocked that when Benedict told him about the thing happened in Riverside Club, especially, about that the responsible person of Prominent Business Association came there.

Later, Stephen made sure that there were some crouching tigers in the Ford family.

He wanted Benedict to marry Caroline and find out the truth of all this.

However, Benedict will never find that the man who ordered to banish the Hudson family was just sitting in front of him.

“Mrs. Ford and Old Mr. Ford, about my proposal to Caroline…” Benedict implied.

“Caroline is so lucky that she can marry you.”

Rebecca said first, “Benedict, I will never say no to your proposal to Caroline.”

“That’s right.”

Jayden also nodded and said, “Let’s choose an auspicious day and you get engaged first.”

“No! I will not consent to this proposal.”

Just as everyone was laughing, a piercing shout of anger interrupted everyone’s imagination.

William got up and looked at Benedict indifferently, “Your family is a great family in your area, which is as powerful as the four loyal families in Emerdale City. Why you choose my daughter to be your wife as you can marry any woman who is from a richer family?”

What he said was harsh and piercing, which froze Benedict’s smile immediately. He then forced a smile, “I fell in love with Caroline at first sight. And we love each other. I want to marry her with no other reasons.”

William waved his hand and said, “My daughter is just from a small family, and she doesn’t deserve you. You can go now.”

As soon as the words came out, everyone’s face changed.

“Dad, what are you talking about?”

Caroline got angry, “I just find my true love, but you want me to break up with him?”

“Shut up! Are you really a father? Your daughter finally finds herself a good boyfriend, but you should try to be the block on the way?”

Rebecca also got angry, with a face of shrew. Here was a good opportunity to make her family a rich one, and she will never let it flee away.

Jayden walked to Benedict, and flattered, “Mr. Hudson, he is my son-in-law, and he doesn’t have much status. He often entertains an angel unawares.”

Benedict nodded happily, and then looked at Leo wittingly or unwittingly. But he found Leo with a calm look.

So he strode to Leo and said, “You are a friend of Caroline from childhood. You must come to our wedding!”

Caroline said with unhappiness, “You don’t have to invite him to our wedding, and he even cannot afford the cash gift.”

Benedict smiled, and said generously, “You has grown up with him from childhood, and he doesn’t have to give the cash gift. I would like him to be my best man.”

Leo’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Don’t you really think that you can marry Caroline?”

It’s Leo who ordered to hinder the Hudson family develop the market here, so he knew well why Benedict wanted to marry Caroline.

However, Benedict misunderstood his words.

He smiled and said, “Why not? We’ll be a family soon.”

Speaking, he turned to Jayden and William and said with surprise, “Father-in-law, and old Mr. Ford, I saw you in a conflict when I came in just now, and what can I do for you?”

Old Mr. Ford quickly waved his hand, “Thanks, but we are here to ask for an explanation.”

After Caroline told Benedict the whole story, Benedict smiled and said, “Well, I believe that there must be some reasons for father-in-law to cancel the cooperation.”

After a pause, Benedict said, “If old Mr. Ford doesn’t mind, the Hudson family is willing to cooperate with the Ford family.”

“Really?”

With his words, Jayden and Rebecca got wild with joy, and they stopped tangling the Vesper Corporation.

Jayden snorted, and peered at William, “You see! You are really ungrateful.”

“Birds of a feather flock together!” Rebecca also said in a strange way.

With Benedict’s promise, the Ford family got great joy, and Benedict also turned to Leo and smiled, as if he was speaking that it’s a piece of cake to marry Caroline.

At the time, Lydia came in with a group of people.

The cold appearance and powerful vibe, as well as the human wall behind her, froze the present.

“President Henderson.”

William hurriedly got up to greet.

When Benedict saw Lydia, his smile froze, and the corner of his eyes twitched sharply. His look at Leo darkened.

He ever liked Lydia, but Leo married her first.

When he was about to say something, Benedict suddenly noticed the group of men in black suit, every one of whom had a badge with a mark of urban construction. There was no doubt that they were members of the Urban Construction Bureau.

He immediately ran to them and asked,

“Are you Mr. Jenkins from the Urban Construction Bureau? A few days ago, I called you on behalf of the Hudson family…”

The head of the group looked at him indifferently, and said with a face of disgust, “Go away. I am working.”

Benedict was pushed and tottered. The Ford family were all shocked to see it. Benedict was the young master of the Hudson family, but he dared to treat Benedict like that.

“I’m Brandon Jenkins from the general Administration of Urban Construction. I am here to talk with President Henderson about the Reconstruction project of the Emerdale river.”

Hearing, Benedict was directly stunned. The Reconstruction project Peter Lawson longed for so long was taken over by the Atlas Group.

Others looked at Lydia with faces full of envy.

Lydia scanned everyone present. When her look fell on Leo sitting in the corner, she snorted and ignored him.

Leo showed a wry smile. It’s clear that Lydia was angry for that Leo had a talk with Kate yesterday night.

Then she looked at William, “Follow me to the Atlas Group, and the product can be lunched.”

“All right.”

“Also, I wonder if Mr. Ford is interested in the reconstruction project.”

Lydia asked suddenly.

William was stunned, and then said with surprise, “Can I?”

“Of course.”

Brandon smiled, “The leaders are very optimistic about the Atlas Group and Vesper Corporation. As long as there is no other project in hand, Vesper Corporation is welcome to jointly build a beautiful Emerdale.”

What he said was very official, but an message was revealed that the two groups were protected by a big shot.

Benedict stared at this scene, and he made up his mind to marry Caroline. His marriage can be sacrificed to develop the family business.

“I’d like to.” William tried to suppress the joy in his heart and promised.

At that time, Jayden, Rebecca, Caroline and other people got an ugly look.

Although they got the cooperation with the Hudson family, these two projects were totally different.

Especially the urban construction project, it was a sweet pasty for every company in Emerdale city.

It’s really penny wise and pound foolish.
