Chapter 70 Heartbroken
Benjamin turned around to leave and then he whispered to his ring, "Beetle, time to come back."
However, he still didn't see the Beetle after whispering for a few times.
Benjamin was a bit confused.
He took out his phone and was a bit surprised when looking at the screen.
He noticed that the Beetle seemed to have been taken away to somewhere else.
Benjamin hurried to work on his phone. Soon, he saw the location map, on which a red spot showed the position of the Beetle.
He looked a bit cold and then hurried to walk down the long corridor.
He stepped into the elevator without hesitation and pressed the button of the top floor. As the door gradually closed, he squinted and wondered why there was someone on the top floor in the hotel. Besides, the Beetle was even taken there in such a short time. As the elevator reached the top floor, Benjamin stepped out bravely.
The top floor was an open area where placed table and chairs orderly. Besides, it was well decorated with trimmed plants and flowers.
As the comfortable wind breezed, there was a little boy dressing in luxurious tiny suit standing on the balcony. The wind slowly ruffled his fine spiky hairs.
Benjamin stopped at the back of that little boy and said coldly, "Hey, you took away my Beetle, right?"
The little boy turned around, who was wearing a black mask. No one could see his face clearly.
The little boy showed him the Beetle and asked confusedly, "Do you mean this little stuff?"
Benjamin grabbed it back and huffed, "Don't call it little stuff! His name is Beetle!"
After saying that, Benjamin turned around and was about to leave.
Seeing that he was about to walk away, the little boy couldn't help saying, "Sorry, I just used my magnetic fishing machine to drive your Beetle here."
Benjamin gradually stopped and turned around to look at him, "It doesn't matter. I know you didn't mean to do it."
The boy held his own hands together, "Well, do you have fun in the banquet?"
Hearing that, Benjamin was a bit stunned, "You are also here to attend the banquet, right? Why do you ask so?"
The boy sighed, "Yes. But my parents made me here to wait for them. I can't go downstairs to the venue."
Noticing his eager eyes, Benjamin shrugged, "Let me tell you. The banquet is so boring. The venue is filled with a horde of old women. The food didn't taste good either. It's just a dancing club for those old guys. It doesn't fit us at all." Hearing that, the little boy dissolved into laughter.
Seeing that, Benjamin chuckled as well.
The cold expressions on their both faces soon disappeared.
Commonly speaking, Benjamin had never talked so much with a stranger. However, even he himself had no idea why he was so friendly to this little boy as if they were family.
Benjamin waved his hand, "It's late now. The banquet is about to come to an end. I need to go back home. Don't just stand here and face the wind alone. Or you will catch a cold. You should know that the needle in the hospital really hurts." Looking at his back, the little boy smiled, "Hello, do you want to make a friend with me? I barely have any friends."
Benjamin stopped again. His eyes seemed to be lit up, "My name is Benjamin Coleman."
"My name is Joshua Randolph."
Benjamin raised up his hand and then faded away from the top floor.
Joshua took off his mask and said softly, "Benjamin Coleman, Joshua Randolph..."
Though they had different names, he felt like being bound by something with him.
Benjamin was also wondering about the same thing when staying in the elevator. They really felt so familiar with each other though they met for the first time.
Of course, he barely had any friends either.
As soon as he walked out of the hotel, he hailed a taxi with a one hundred buck. He stood with his back to the high-end hotel and then he gradually took off his little white mask.
The surprising thing was that Benjamin actually almost looked the same as Joshua.
Standing at the balcony and looking at Benjamin, who stood with his back to him, Joshua couldn't help squinting, "Benjamin Coleman, my friend..."
At the same time, Patricia also found the seat of Karina. She hurried forward to take away her glass of wine, looking angry.
As the glass was suddenly taken away, Karina frowned and looked annoyed, "Who are you? Don't grab my wine! Get it back to me! I need more!" Patricia put away the glass and looked at her worriedly, who was completely drunk, "Karina, stop drinking. It's okay. I am here with you." Looking at Patricia, who was wearing a gorgeous evening dress, Karina was stunned, "You are Patricia?"
Patricia nodded and hugged her, "Yes, I am here with you! Karina, stop drinking. Let's go back home." Karina shook her head and pushed her away. Then she poured herself another glass of wine. Before Patricia could take action, she drained it.
"Patricia, you know what? I don't want to attend the banquet at all. But I know that Lydia must be here."
"And Dustin insisted that he should
come and he even made me his
companjon. I never turn down any request from him. I was quite
satisfied even if I could just stay with him for a few hours tonight"
Patricia hugged her, feeling sympathetic, "It's okay. He will definitely regret for letting you go. You are such a nice girl."
Karina kept shaking her head. Tears streamed down her cheek continuously. Obviously, she was desperately sad.
"No, he won't! He only cares about Lydia. Only her! He never even thinks about me! Even if he only kept me in his heart for a while, I would be much happier!"
After saying that, she kept crying while gesturing.
Patricia hugged her tight but she didn't know what to say to comfort her.
Karina rested her head on Patricia's shoulder, onto which tears dropped.
"You know what? He hurried to rush onto the stage to help her as soon as he noticed that she got into trouble! No matter how hard I tried to stop him and I kept repeating that she was now the wife of Archibald, it didn't work at all! He still rushed on stage to bail her out regardless of any cost!"
"Patricia, you know that, right? I can tell that he is still totally captured by Lydia wholeheartedly!"
