Chapter 189
Bonnie patted Benedict’s shoulder. “I’ll tell you the truth, but you have to promise not to tell anyone
else.”
“Not even Mom and Dad?” Benedict asked.
After pondering for a moment, she replied, “That’s up to you.‘
“All right, spill it. I’m ready,” Benedict had already speculated various possibilities. One was that Hamish was Bonnie’s admirer.
Bonnie slowly said, “Actually, I am the CEO of Tang Fusion Studios.”
This news shocked Benedict.
He had considered ten thousand possibilities, but he never connected Bonnie with being the CEO of Tang Fusion Studios. After all, his sister was so young. He knew his sister was talented, but Tang Fusion Studios was a leading company in the city.
“Bonnie, are you… are you serious?”
!!
“Why else would Hamish personally mentor you?” Bonnie said with a smile.
Benedict’s mouth hung wide open for a while.
The next day, Bonnie accompanied Welma and Gerald to the train station.
“Mom, here are some snacks I prepared for you. Eat them if you get hungry on the way,” Bonnie said, handing a tote bag to Welma and Gerald.
Welma’s eyes were a bit teary. “My dear girl, you are so filial.”
“Benny, you’re a man now. Take good care of your sister and protect her, you hear?” Gerald
instructed Benedict.
“Don’t worry. That’s my duty,” Benedict said but complained internally. After all, his sister was the CEO of Tang Fusion Studios and had immeasurable wealth. So, if anyone were taking care of someone, it would be his sister taking care of him.
Benedict didn’t tell his parents that Bonnie was the CEO of Tang Fusion Studios. He was afraid they would be scared, just as he was. After seeing the two off, Bonnie and Benedict received messages simultaneously on their phones.
It was a notification from Twitter. “HamishEvans took in a disciple named Benedict yesterday.”
Bonnie raised an eyebrow and turned to Benedict. “It seems like he intends to pass on his mantle to you.”
Benedict was still in shock, completely bewildered by Hamish’s high–profile announcement.
Bonnie smiled. “Hamish’s intention is simple. He wants to cultivate you so you can share the
Chapter 189
workload with him.”
Hamish was playing a good game. Since she wasn’t going to the company, he was going to let her brother take her place.
This news also reached the Shepard family’s ears.
“Trina, I remember your brother from the countryside. His name is Benedict, right?” Vera looked at
Trina and asked.
“Mom, you’re not thinking that the designer Hamish took as a disciple is my brother, are you?”
“I’m just asking. How could that be possible? That country bumpkin–oh, sorry, I mean, that’s your brother,” Vera stopped halfway, realizing her words were inappropriate.
Trina took Vera’s hand. “Mom, I don’t blame you. It’s okay. Besides, in Benedict’s heart, there’s only Bonnie. I have given up and no longer regard him as my brother. To me, you and Dad are the only two dearest family members I have.”
Vera patted Trina’s back affectionately. “You’ve been through a lot, my dear.”
By the way, I heard that Hamish is planning a disciple reception at a nearby entertainment club in a few days. You and Hadwin should go there together. Maybe, if you’re lucky, you might meet Hamish’s disciple. If you can make friends, it’ll be a huge opportunity,” Vera remembered and suggested.
“Okay, Mom, you can rest assured. I’ll make it happen,” Trina said, confident in her social skills. In the blink of an eye, Saturday arrived.
