Matthew’s forehead was creased in worry, his voice deepening.
“What do you want? Where is Stella?”
“Calm down,” Benny replied indifferently, his voice laced with a hint of satisfaction.
“Your woman was following me and got herself caught.
Now, she’s with me.”
He turned his head, his sharp eyes resting on Stella with a mocking grin.
Stella was indeed Matthew’s weak spot.
He had simply used her phone to make a call, and that alone made Matthew lose his cool.
Matthew tried to sound calm.
“What do you plan to do?”
As he spoke, he hurried to the parking lot.

He had shared a location with Stella’s phone and needed to buy time to rescue her as quickly as he could.
Unaware of Matthew’s thoughts, Benny assumed he was panicking.
He chuckled softly.
“You misunderstand me. I don’t want to cause trouble. I just want to remind you to be careful. I’m watching every move you make.”
Matthew stopped as he opened his car door, glancing instinctively at the surveillance cameras.
He took a deep breath, trying to stay composed as he talked to Benny.
“If you want to rejoin the Clark family, I can arrange it.”
He had figured out Benny’s sudden appearance was likely about the Clark family’s wealth, status, and power.
He was willing to meet Benny’s demands for these material things, as long as his family stayed safe.
Benny sneered bitterly, his voice growing harsh.
“It’s too late for that. I want more than just those things.”
“What do you…” Matthew began, but he was cut off by the sound of the call ending.
His face grew even colder. He quickly checked the location app to find Stella’s phone.
