Chapter 1390
When Love Comes Late
His voice was hoarse.
It was Like gravel rubbing against the ground.
Benny remained calm.
He sat opposite Carl, and someone immediately put tableware in front of him.
He glanced at it, but he didnât move.
Carl took a few bites of meat, looked at Bennyâs untouched plate, and asked nonchalantly, âAre you afraid I will poison you? Since you dare to request this meeting, why are you hesitant to have a meal with me?â
Benny looked at Carl expressionlessly.
âI have business with you.
â
âYou are so impatient.
No matter how urgent it is, a man has to finish his meal first, right?â Carl smiled, but it didnât reach his eyes.
Benny had no plans of exchanging pleasantries with Carl.
So, he said, âI know about the grudge between you and Matthew.
It so happens that we also have irreconcilable conflicts.
So, I think we can cooperate to deal with him together.
â
The expression on Carlâs face changed.
He looked at Benny with scrutiny.
After a moment of silence, he asked, âWhat do you propose for this collaboration?â
âI have men.
My former subordinates in Highwyn will still follow me.
â
As he spoke, Benny glanced at the few bodyguards behind Carl.
Then.
he looked at Carl again and said calmly, âI think this is what you lack the most right now.
â
Carl fixed his eyes on Bennyâs face.
He had been running away during this period, and his manpower was indeed dwindling.
After being silent for a while, he suddenly broke into laughter.
âIt seems you have planned meticulously.
If you provide the manpower, then what do you require from me?â
âHeavy weaponry,â Benny replied bluntly.
âI know you have some in stock.

Carl laughed again.
But this time, it was full of mockery.
âYoung man, itâs good that you are ambitious.
But donât overestimate yourself.
I can easily hire people.
But weapons arenât so easily acquired.
Even if you have wealth, it isnât that easy to acquire weapons.
With a mere handful of men, youâre not in a position to bargain with me.
â
Then, he turned to the bodyguards and ordered, âShow him out.
â
But Benny didnât waver.
He said confidently, âBut Iâm a Clark.
â
As soon as Benny said this, Carl immediately raised his hand to stop the bodyguards, who were about to rush to Benny.
He fixed his gaze on Benny as if trying to confirm the truth in his words.
Benny met Carlâs gaze unflinchingly.
âAfter I get rid of Matthew, you can choose any of the current projects of the Clark family.
â
âAre you really from the Clark family?â Carlâs eyes narrowed.
His brows furrowed tightly as he fell into deep thought.
âIf I remember it correctly, your name isâ¦â
âBenny Clifford.
â
âYour last name is different.
How can you prove you are a Clark?
