Chapter 124 The Bloom Family’s Background
When Veronica tracked down the car accident that year, there was a new clue.
At this time, Benjamin had already left for a secret stronghold.
This was the center of Sherland’s power and the core area of the entire city.
The people who could live here were all nobles with great power.
This was also a place where ordinary people were banned.
Even if the Bloom family, one of the top ten wealthy families in Sherland, wanted to enter this place, they must notify the regulator in advance.
Benjamin smiled at any guard here, trying to please them for fear of being turned away.
Someone said that when a man got to the top, all his friends and relations got there with him. It was nothing more than this.
After a moment, after receiving permission, Benjamin entered a unique courtyard.
“Our master is receiving a visitor. Please wait here.” A middle–aged man who looked like a butler said these words and walked away.
The middle–aged man even didn’t give any explanation.
“Yes, thank you.” Benjamin stood up to thank the man, not daring to neglect.
After that, no one came to talk to Benjamin again.
No one even brought Benjamin coffee.
It could be seen that they treat their guests with arrogance and disregard.
However, Benjamin did not complain at all but waited patiently.
Benjamin’s wait lasted a whole afternoon.
In the evening, it was time for dinner.
Benjamin started to fidget, wondering if he should continue to wait or leave.
“My master invites you to come in for dinner!”
At this time, the butler appeared again and said indifferently.
When Benjamin heard that he could have dinner with that big shot, he immediately felt flattered and quickly got up to follow.
Soon, the two passed through a pavilion and entered the back hall.
A luxurious restaurant had a small square table in the center, with servants waiting on both sides.
There were no other guests at the table, only an old man in a suit, slowly drinking soup with a peaceful expression, enjoying the food.
Seeing this, Benjamin hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.
Then, the old man in a suit put down the soup slowly, nodded, and said, “Have you eaten yet? Why don’t you join me?”
Benjamin knew that this person was determined, and Benjamin shouldn’t refuse.
This big shot told Benjamin to sit down and eat dinner. Benjamin just did it obediently. Immediately, Benjamin said yes and hurried forward to take a seat.
Benjamin was excited and nervous, and at the same time, was incredibly humble in front of the

big shot. Benjamin only dared to sit on the edge of the chair cautiously.
“I’m aware of the troubles the Bloom family encountered.” The old man in a suit personally brought coffee for Benjamin.
Surprised, Benjamin hurriedly got up to express his appreciation.
The old man in a suit nodded and motioned Benjamin to sit down first.
Benjamin sat down again and hurriedly drank the coffee the old man rewarded. Benjamin didn’t have time to taste the coffee but felt honored.
“The Soler family was suppressed back then, and now they will make a comeback? There is indeed something strange about this! I will send someone to investigate.”
As he said, the old man in a suit took another sip of soup and murmured, “Don’t worry, with me here, the Soler family can’t merger the Bloom family!”
Hearing the big shot’s words, Benjamin was wholly and finally relieved.
Benjamin came here today for these words.
The old man in a suit continued, “The Soler family has just started. How can they get so much money to buy up the shares of your family?
“Tomorrow, I will ask the Insurance Regulatory Commission and the Banking Regulatory
Commission to investigate the source of their funds! Whether their funds are legal, I will let them spit out your stocks obediently!”
The old man’s words were an understatement, but Benjamin knew very well that only a few people in Vericano could do this.
Benjamin hurriedly got up again to express his appreciation with cap in hand.
“But…” Finding the right moment, Benjamin carefully reminded him, “The Baker family has been investigating the tax issues of our company. I don’t know when I offended Mr. Baker…”
Speaking of Orlando of the Baker family, a stern look finally flashed across the calm face of the old man in a suit.
“Is Orlando the Affluent?
“Haha. He has already retreated. How dare he meddle so much?”
“People who don’t know will think he’s still in charge of the Ministry of Finance.”
The old man in a suit suddenly stood up and said proudly, “I will let the Baker family know who was in charge of the current Ministry of Finance!”
The old man’s face was full of arrogance and contempt for ordinary people. It was the authoritarian arrogance of a powerful minister. There could be no doubt about what he said. Benjamin, who was sitting by in shock, quickly stood up and echoed.
When he left the small courtyard, Benjamin found his back was already drenched in cold sweat. For Benjamin, just being with that big shot to eat dinner was both an honor and a tormenting process. It was like going to the execution ground, and he finally survived.
However, with the big shot’s promise, Benjamin came home in a good mood.
“I don’t care who is dealing with our family in secret, whether you are the Baker or Soler family. This time I will let you know the background and capabilities of our family cannot be shaken!”
