Chapter 449 First Meeting
Jason answered and led the way, “Understood, then I’ll report back to you first if there’s anything going on.”
“Okay.” With a response, Benjamin hung up the phone.
While looking out of the window at the sun, his eyes were filled with a chill.
No matter what, this time, he must seize the opportunity to keep Ruby firmly in his grasp.
Since Levi was here, he didn’t want him to go back alive!
……
After hanging up the phone, Jason gave Benjamin’s order down and the men in the lab under him immediately nodded their heads.
After the meeting broke up, a tall, hot woman suddenly walked in and headed straight for Jason.
Jason looked more respectful when he saw her, “Miss Hallie, what brings you here?”
The woman addressed as Miss Hallie wears delicate make-up, was young and beautiful, and a long black halter dress outlined her slim and delicate figure in a sexy way.
She gave him a lazy look and lifted her chin proudly, “Why can’t I come? I can still go to Lab X, not to mention this lab!”
Knowing he couldn’t afford to mess with her, Jason answered, “Yes, you’re right, but may I ask what you’re here for?”
Everyone on the outside had spread the word that Jason was considered a bully in the medical research community.
But what no one really knew was that this was just a deliberate persona that Jason had created for the outside world.
And the person who was really behind the creation of this persona was Benjamin!
He needed someone strong enough to stand in front and cover for what he was doing.
Only then would others not notice that it was actually Jason who was behind the real manipulation.
It was a very cunning move, really, but a very effective one.
So far, at least, no one had ever seen through Jason as anything more than a paper tiger, let alone associated him with this man of great renown on the outside.
Hallie swept him up and asked, “I heard that Benjamin asked you to bring a woman here, is that true?”
As soon as he heard this, Jason immediately understood the purpose of her trip and immediately organized his words discreetly.
“Not just a woman, but a man will follow.”
But Hallie didn’t care about men, all she cared about was Ruby, and immediately her face turned cold.
“Why did he let that woman come here? What the hell was he thinking?”
Jason: “…… I don’t know much about what’s on the BOSS’s mind, I guess he wants to get what he wants from that woman.”
“Get what you want, no need to waste so much time and effort to save her at all. Don’t you think I don’t know that Benjamin was always chasing after her when she was in F Country!”
Seeing Hallie’s temper rise, Jason had a headache and he was very innocent.
“Miss Hallie, I’m just a subordinate, I really don’t know what’s on the mind of BOSS, if you have any questions, why don’t you go and ask the BOSS directly?”
“You-” At these words, Hallie was immediately annoyed.
If she could have contacted Benjamin herself, why would she have had to come all the way here to ask him?
All these years, she had been trying to win Benjamin’s heart, but Benjamin had always been think she was dispensable.
If the two of them hadn’t that relationship on the bed, she wouldn’t even be able to enter the door of this place right now.
Over the years, she had always claimed to be Benjamin’s real girlfriend on the grounds that she was his lover and that he had never had a regular female companion by his side.
But in reality, Benjamin didn’t consider her his woman at all, not even allowing her to follow him around, only leaving her in Y, barely seeing her a few times a year.
But she never gave up on wanting to stay by this man’s side, and even sent someone to quietly spy on Benjamin.
This was how she became aware of Ruby’s existence and could sense that this woman would be a great threat to her.
In all the time she had been with Benjamin, she had never seen him so attached to any woman, actually trying so deliberately to keep a woman by his side.
How could she allow this to happen?
From the lab, she got into her car with a scowl on her face.
No matter what, she would not allow Benjamin to have any possibility with that woman!
……
After more than ten hours of flight, Ruby and Levi finally stood on the land of Y Country.
The temperature here was much cooler than at home, so Levi had prepared clothes in advance and draped them on Ruby before he got off the plane.
Ruby felt a warm feeling in her heart at his unfailing care, and simply took advantage of her “faulty memory and greatly changed personality” to express her gratitude.
She blinked and voluntarily shoved her hand into Levi’s hand, interlocking her fingers with his.
Levi froze and looked at her sideways, his eyes were deep and mixed with a few moments of delight.
It was the first time Ruby had taken such an initiative, her cheeks were slightly hot, even her ears were hot.
To keep herself from being exposed, she averted her eyes from meeting his gaze, the corners of her mouth curving up in a slight curve.
“You’ve taken such good care of me, I’m very relieved for you. I don’t know my way around, so I have to take your hand, otherwise if I get lost and can’t find my way.”
She said this with a certain sense of arrogance, and Levi’s eyes twitched slightly, his heart rippling in wisps, joy spreading through his blood.
He reached back and clasped his hand around her, clutching it tightly and not letting go as he led her out of the airport.
The man Jason had sent was already waiting outside, and when he saw the two, he immediately came forward with a polite attitude.
“Hello, Mr. Finn, Miss Harold, I was sent by Mr. Jason to pick you two up to the lab, just call me John, please get in.”
As he spoke, both Levi and Ruby surveyed him, did not see anything unusual in his expression, nodded their heads and got into the car.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
The car drove on the flat main road from the southern end of the city where the airport was located to the northern end.
This laboratory was located in a very secluded area, and it took some more driving to the north before it came to a halt after dark.
Looking ahead at the heavily guarded gates of the base, Ruby’s eyes sank and her expression faintly froze.
The same serious face was on Levi, who was completely new to this place and therefore had to be extra vigilant.
The car drove in and drove for some distance before stopping in front of an extraordinarily imposing and high-tech looking building.
“Mr. Finn, Miss Harold, it’s time to get off.”
Ruby and Levi glanced at each other and got out of the car together.
Jason was already waiting at the door and when he saw the two, he immediately came forward and greeted them with great enthusiasm.
“Mr. Finn, Miss Harold, nice to meet you, I’m Jason.”
