Chapter 95

Did Benson really just bring up a marriage alliance? And with the Zenn family, of all people. They were the ones behind Centrise Group. I turned to face Benson, who met my stare with a knowing smirk. He said, "Layton Group may be small, but under your leadership, it's become a multibillion-dollar powerhouse. "Besides, Camille is stunning. Plenty of men would kill for the chance to have her." His eyes were cold and sharp. There was no doubt that he was ready to play hardball. "Well then, congratulations," I said, turning to walk away. Benson's key reason for wanting me to marry into his family was straightforward. I came with no strings attached. Even if I were to run the company, the Layton name would remain. That was exactly his goal. But my move caught him off guard, and he was forced to adjust his strategy. Even if it meant Layton Group would eventually pass into the hands of the Zenn family, Benson considered it a better option than allowing me to dismantle it from within.
