Chapter 114 Supreme Member
It was when night fell that Forrest finally called Leo.
"Mr. Cohen, I’ve got the information you asked for," Forrest began his introduction of Benedict. "His
name is Benedict Hudson, and hees from City S. He’s one of two sons of Stephen Hudson. At
present, he is the marketing manager of the Hudson Group, his family business. The Hudson family is
quite influential around Sallton and Winham, and they are as well-established as the four most powerful
families from Emerdale. International Commerce Center used to be their private property. Later, they
sold it to Justin Cox for some private reasons…"
Leo remained silent. Holding the phone and looking grim, he said in a cold voice, "I want the history
between Lydia and him, not such useless information."
Sensing anger in his tone, Forrest replied cautiously at once, "Mr. Cohen, Ms. Henderson didn’t have a
deep rtionship with Benedict. Basically, it was Benedict who had a crush on her. It’s said that he
used his shares in The Hudson family’s business to purchase International Commerce Center to win
Ms. Henderson’s heart. Butter, it seemed that something went wrong with his family business, and
he sold International Commerce Center after he went back to City S."
"What went wrong exactly?"
Leo paid attention to anything rted to Lydia, and wouldn’t ignore any detail.
"Benedict was fighting against his brother," Forrest continued earnestly. "Benedict isn’t Stephen’s
biological son. The truth is, Stephen’s wife cheated on him with some other man and gave birth to
Benedict. Benedict’s brother wanted to drive him away from the household, but instead, Benedict broke
his limbs and kicked him out of the house."
Leo narrowed his eyes slightly as he heard that. "Sounds like Benedict is a man of character."
Forrest added as Leo said that, "Mr. Cohen, I wonder if I should tell you that…"
"What is it?" Leo raised his brows.
"Benedict will also attend the dinner party held by Peter tonight, and Caroline Ford will go with him."
"What?!" Leo was surprised to hear that, and then his eyes darkened. "So she’ll be his female
"It seems so," Forrest told the truth. "Besides, our informer just took pictures of the twoing out of
the hotel an hour ago."
After that, Forrest sent the pictures to Leo’s phone. In the pictures, Caroline was snuggling up to
Benedict, her cheeks flushed. It was not hard to imagine what the two had done in the hotel room a
little while ago.
Somehow, anger welled up inside Leo as he saw these pictures. It was not that he cared about
Caroline, but he was enraged by her low self-esteem. Truly, the two of them fell out and became
enemies, but Caroline was William’s biological daughter, and Leo felt obligated to take care of her.
Leo checked the time and said, "I’m going to Riverside Club right now. You’ll join meter."
"Yes, Mr. Cohen!"
Leo hung up the phone, stopped a taxi and rushed to Riverside Club, looking sullen.
He thought to himself, "Caroline, it seems that you’recking in self-respect, and I don’t mind teaching
you a lesson on behalf of dad!"
Ten minutester, Leo arrived at Riverside Club. Just as he was about to get in, the doorman stopped
him. "Sir, please press your finger here."
Riverside Club was a membership-based club, and not all the rich people could just join it. Each club
would register each of its members’ fingerprints, and the members could get in after their fingerprints
were checked.
As Leo pressed his finger, the machine beeped and the red light shed immediately. After that, a
manager-looking man came out and drove Leo away.
"You’re not the member of Riverside Club. Get out!"
Just as Leo was about to speak, a scream of surprise came from behind him.
"Leo! Why are you here, loser?"
Leo looked back, only to see Carolineing out of the underground parking lot holding Benedict’s
arm.
Caroline looked at Leo with contempt. "Don’t tell me someone like you also wants to join Riverside
Club! Stop dreaming! Do you know what kind of ce this is?"
Benedict stared grimly at Leo beside Caroline. "It’s you again, huh?"
"Be a good boy and don’t stand in my way," Leo squinted his eyes and said.
Caroline stared at Benedict in astonishment. "Benedict, you know that loser?"
"We had a little fight." Benedict thought nothing of Leo.
"What?" Hearing that, Caroline burst into anger and shouted abuse as she pointed at Leo. "You’re so
embarrassing, loser! How dared you offend Benedict? Apologize to him right now!"
Leo threw a faint look at Caroline and said, "There’s no one in this world deserving my apology. What’s
the rtionship between you and him?"
Caroline grew confident immediately when it came to this subject. She took Benedict’s arm happily and
said in a sweet voice, "He’s my boyfriend now. Benedict also said he will marry me."
Leo never expected that Caroline would believe such a tant lie, asking, "Did you two just get out of a
hotel room?"
Caroline became agitated upon hearing that, and shrilled, "I knew you were stalking me!"
Leo, however, grabbed Caroline’s arm. "Come on! Get back with me!"
"What are you doing? Let go of me!"
Yelling in anger, Caroline shook Leo’s hand off. "Who are you to tell me what to do? Just wait and see.
After I marry into The Hudson family, I’ll kill you as easily as killing an ant…"
Benedict frowned slightly as he heard that. Admittedly, he had said that he would marry Caroline, but it
was just some sweet talk during sex. And she took it seriously and wanted to marry into The Hudson
family? Did she deserve it? But he still pulled Caroline back and red at Leo, saying, "Don’t you think
it’s proper of you, a married man, to pull a girl?"
Caroline seemed to remember something. Suddenly, she also scowled at Leo and snapped, "Right!
You’re married! I’ll call the police if you touch me again!"
Disappointment shed across Leo’s eyes. He didn’t want Caroline to destroy herself, but she bit the
hand that was trying to save her.
"Caroline, let’s go. Stop bothering yourself arguing with him. Someone like him will never be able to join
Riverside Club." Benedict took Caroline to Riverside Club as he spoke.
Caroline acted as if they were intimate, took Benedict’s arm and left with him.
After Benedict pressed his finger on the machine and showed his invitation, the lobby manager of
Riverside Club rushed up to Benedict’s side at once and said fawningly, "This way, please!"
Suddenly, Caroline’s vanity was fed. Riverside Club was the top-tier club of Emerdale, and only those
"We’re getting in now. Hope you’ll enjoy the evening breeze outside," Caroline taunted and went into
Riverside Club with Benedict.
Leo, nevertheless, remainedposed and stood at the entrance, as if he was waiting for someone.
Seeing Leo stay put, the lobby manager tried to drive him away impatiently. "Get away! Not everyone
can just get in Riverside Club. Don’t make me call security…"
However, at this point, a man in a suit rushed down the stairs in the lobby of Riverside Club. He turned
pale at the sight of the lobby manager driving Leo away.
"Stop!" He hurried to the lobby manager’s side, kicked him to the ground and gave a hard p across
his face.

"Who told you to drive him away?!"
The lobby manager was stunned by the p, and his face turned pale at the sight of the man in front of
him.
"Boss, I was throwing that hick out!" The lobby manager felt wronged.
"That hick? You are the hick!"
The lobby manager was given another good beating by the man. "Do you have any idea who he is?
He’s the supreme member of Riverside Club, and his information is not included in the regr
members’ data base, get it?"
