Life at the Top

Chapter 2328

Benita fell silent for a moment before he continued, “Do you remember the uncle Brock said had opened a hotel in Bardot? His lack of contact probably has to do with his uncle. We don’t have time, I need you to take a trip to Bardot. And I‘ll need you to bring the last test sample as well. It’s our only chance”

Benita delegated this seriously, but Chyntia was focused on something else.

“Wait, Rowan. If I’m not here, what about you?

“Who will keep you safe?” Benita smiled softly and replied seriously.

“Simple, you just need to leave in secret. I will not show myself once you’ve left, and I’ll try to give you as much time as I can.”

Chyntia understood now that Benita was planning to pull a bluff.

“But isn’t this too risky?”

“It is, but it’s also the best choice we have now,” Benita patted Chyntia on the shoulder, “Don’t worry about me and go, Chyntia. I’ll be waiting for your good news…”

Chyntia nodded. Once he returned with Benita and grabbed the last test sample, he left for Bardot immediately.

To keep everything under wraps, Benita and Chyntia came up with a plan.

Chyntia would avoid Bashra’s airport and head straight to Najef, then take the flight to the capital, Bardot from there.

It might seem like Chyntia was taking the longer route, but doing so actually took less than two hours. Most importantly, this plan had the highest chance of concealing the fact that Benita was alone.

Once Chyntia left, Benita immediately passed instructions to his subordinates. He told them that he would not be seeing anyone or meeting any business partners forthe coming few days.

The next day, Sonya was informed of this news.

“He’s not seeing anyone? That’s weird. Benita has always been up and about, so why would he stay quiet now?”

Sonya twisted the ring on her finger and fell into thought.

According to her understanding of Leonardo, this man should be running about trying to turn the tides. Benita was not the kind to just isolate himself from everyone.

While Sonya was in thought, her new assistant Steven asked. “Miss Sonya, could he be lying? What if he’s already left Bashra?”

“Left Bashra? As if he would leave just like that.”

Sonya wanted nothing more than for Benita to leave Bjorne dejectedly, which meant she had won completely. However, it felt unreal for Sonya to win so easily.

“I know what you’re thinking, Miss Sonya, but there’s something you might not know… Benita was fully humiliated at the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce yesterday!”

“What happened? I wasn’t informed of this at all…” Sonya was confused and she quickly read through the intelligence Steven handed her.

After reading through it, Sonya could not help but laugh out loud. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Any enemy of Benita’s would laugh brightly if they found out about what he had experienced yesterday.

“I see… I had no idea Benita went through such terrible humiliation the moment he got back from Somerland.”

Then, Steven continued. “You rested early yesterday, Miss Sonya, so I had not the chance to tell you this news. From what I understand, there’s more. It seems like Benita has tried to contact Murik many times in private. But as of this moment, Murik has isolated himself from everyone else. There are signs of him contemplating resigning as well.”
