Baldwin's intrusion darkened the faces of everyone present.
Especially Egbert and Benjamin.
"Kid, who do you think you are, knowing whose dinner party this is? How dare you come here and kick the door?" A wealthy young man stood up and asked harshly.
Baldwin walked into the private room, looking around with a mock smile and said, "Egbert, you're quite capable! Deceiving April while preparing to sell her off for a good price to facilitate Zhang Group's escape?"
Egbert's eyes showed a hint of panic as he said, "Don't talk nonsense, why would our Zhang Group need to escape when everything is fine?"
Benjamin, with a special cigarette in his mouth, lit it and asked slowly, "Mr. Zhang, do you know this guy?"
"A son-in-law taken in by the Qiao Family, nominally April's husband but actually a worthless loser who hasn't even held hands with April..."
"young master Kang, rest assured, I guarantee April is absolutely untouched, even I haven't laid a finger on her!"
Egbert turned his head, his face full of flattery, speaking to Benjamin.
Egbert coughed and said to Baldwin, "Mr. Qi, this is Benjamin from the capital, young master Kang!"
"You must have heard of the Kang Family, a major clan ranked within the top ten in Hua Country. Hurry up and apologize to young master Kang, maybe he'll put in a good word for you, and you might even land a prison warden position."
"The Kang Family, one of the top ten prominent families in Hua Country. You're lucky to even meet young master Kang!"
Benjamin suddenly exclaimed, then burst into laughter, saying, "I remember now, you're Baldwin, the one engaged to Cheyenn!"
With Benjamin's words, everyone around was stunned.
The wealthy young man who had been harsh just now turned pale with fear!
"Who doesn't know Cheyenn! Baldwin is related to Cheyenn?"
"No need to be so shocked, this guy and his father have been expelled from the Qi Family, and now he's reduced to a prison guard, he's nothing."
"He's now married to April, probably because Cheyenn has already kicked this loser to the curb!"
"Without the Qi Family's support, and with Cheyenn dumping him, what are you afraid of?"
Seeing everyone's reactions, Benjamin removed the cigarette from his mouth, speaking disdainfully.
Hearing this, everyone sighed in relief, realizing Baldwin had been dumped by Cheyenn.
"Haha, I knew it, how could such a loser be connected with General Yu? Turns out he's been dumped!"
"Makes sense, such trash, unworthy of General Yu, let alone April."
"Someone like General Yu, only our young master Kang is worthy!"
Baldwin said indifferently, "I really don’t understand what’s so admirable about that arrogant Cheyenn, to have a bunch of bootlickers like you!"
"Watch your mouth, how dare you mention General Yu's name like that? You think you have the right to tarnish her reputation?" The wealthy young man approached angrily.
"Kneel down and repent now, apologize to General Yu! Otherwise, I'll send you to the ICU today!"
Unmoved, Baldwin looked at Benjamin and said lightly, "Aren't you going to discipline your dog, Benjamin? And don't even think about touching April, or you won't make it back to the capital."
"Haha, who the hell do you think you are, talking to young master Kang like that, saying he won't make it back to the capital?"
"A mere prison guard dares to bark in front of Young Master Kang? You're just a discarded piece, a trash thrown away by General Yu, and you have the audacity to say such things?"
Benjamin's men all jumped up, pointing at Baldwin's nose and cursing loudly.
The rich young man couldn't hold back and slapped Baldwin, cursing, "What the hell are you showing off here?!"
As soon as the slap was raised, Baldwin grabbed his head and smashed it into the table, causing a bloody mess.
"Baldwin, are you crazy, daring to hit someone in front of Young Master Kang?" Egbert yelled furiously.
Benjamin's face darkened slightly, then he said with a smile, "You now have two choices."
Baldwin kicked the unconscious rich young man away, looking indifferent, and said, "Oh?"
Benjamin coldly said, "First, kneel and lick my shoes, repent sincerely for what you just did, and then personally put this packet of drugs into your wife's drink, and we'll call it even."
After saying this, Benjamin threw a small packet, presumably some kind of drug.
"Young Master Kang is really magnanimous and merciful! So generous to let him off."
"Yeah, Qi, Young Master Kang has given you such generous terms, why don't you kneel down and express your gratitude?"
"I think Young Master Kang is being kind to Qi because he's also from the capital. It's a place where even a thrown brick can hit a minister."
After hearing Benjamin's first option, everyone praised him for his magnanimity, not stooping to Baldwin's level.
"Second, I'll have someone break your legs and then spread a few words to ensure that you and your father can't even be prison guards anymore. And after I'm done with April, I'll bankrupt the Qiao Group and sell you and her as slaves to Nanyang," Benjamin said.
Egbert chuckled and said, "Is there even a need to think about it? Baldwin, just kneel down and lick the shoes, and while you're at it, clean mine too."
The people around also stretched out their feet at this moment, disdainfully saying, "We'll give you a chance, lick ours as well."
Benjamin smiled faintly, placed a cigarette in his mouth, took a deep puff, his face full of scorn and mockery.
"The young master of the Qi Family, now so lowly like an ant, allowing everyone to trample over him, what a twist of fate!" Benjamin sighed and said.
Baldwin walked over to the table and directly picked up the packet of medicine.
"I knew he would choose this, young master Kang is too magnanimous, too sentimental, willing to let him off so easily!"
"Indeed, those who offended young master Kang in the past met such miserable ends, Baldwin is really lucky!"
"Haha, alright, let's wait for the former young master of the Qi Family, General Yu's once fiancé, to kneel down and lick our shoes!"
The group burst into laughter, not taking Baldwin seriously at all.
"Start with young master Kang's shoes, hurry up! Your wife will be here soon, it won't look good if she sees you kneeling and licking shoes," someone joked.
Egbert, full of pride, hadn't expected Baldwin to have such a significant background, but what did it matter now? It was all in the past!
This guy, foolishly intruding into this gathering and offending a big shot like Benjamin, was lucky not to be killed.
