Just at that mont, Bennett ran past Connor.
Then he cheerfully shouted at Jason, "Mr. Trent, Miss Trent, you've arrived! Why didn't you give a call in advance? I could have gone out to pick you up!"
Upon hearing Bennett's words, Connor knew that the Thompson family must be acquainted with Jason.
And Jason also saw Connor, so he didn't bother with Bennett at all. He pushed Bennett aside and quickly walked up to Connor, his expression filled with excitent. He exclaid, "Connor, it's such a coincidence to see you here!"
"It is quite a coincidence..." Connor replied with a faint smile.
Everyone was stunned upon hearing the conversation between Jason and Connor.
Bennett was also dumbfounded, his expression showing imnse shock.
Because they never expected that Connor would know Jason.
"Connor, I'm really grateful for what you did at the Celestial Flower Valley. If it weren't for you, my father might have died..." Jason exclaid excitedly to Connor.
"I should thank you too. If you hadn't sent back to Porthampton, I might have died by now..." Connor replied with a smile.
"I only did so small things. Connor, you saved our Trent family's lives. I naturally won't forget your kindness!" Jason hurriedly said.
In fact, after returning to Chicago, Jason used all the connections of the Thompson family to investigate Connor's background. When he investigated, he found out that Connor was actually the heir of McDonald Family in Porthampton, a prestigious figure in the four provinces.
So now his attitude towards Connor was exceptionally respectful!
However, when Bennett saw Jason's great respect for Connor, he was dumbfounded.
After all, he had so interactions with the Trent family before, and he was quite familiar with their situation, especially Jason. Although Jason appeared easygoing and didn't have much arrogance, deep down he was very proud. Even when facing the head of the Thompson family, he remained calm and composed.
But now, in the face of Connor, Jason was showing such respect, which was sothing that left people feeling incredulous.
Salma and Luna were even more astonished. They knew about Jason's identity, but they couldn't understand why Connor would know him.
"Are you here today for Salma's birthday party?" Connor asked Jason softly.
"Yes, our family is currently in talks with the Thompson family about a project, so I ca over..." Jason quickly nodded.
"Salma is my friend!" Connor gently reminded him.
Upon hearing his words, Jason's eyes flashed with surprise, then he quickly nodded and asked, "Connor, what do you an?"
"Salma is facing so trouble now. There's soone she dislikes who has been pestering her. It's fine for you to cooperate with the Thompson family, but you need to solve her problem first. Do you understand what I an?" Connor said casually.
Jason hesitated for a mont upon hearing Connor's words, then quickly nodded and said, "Connor, rest assured, I'll take care of this matter..."
"Good!" Connor nodded gently, then continued, "When you have ti, go to Porthampton and find Thomas to get so suitable projects for your family!"
"Connor, how can I accept this? The last ti you saved my father…"
Jason hurriedly added.
"We're friends. There's no need to be so polite with so things!"
Connor patted Jason's shoulder and continued, "Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first!"
"Alright. Let send you off!"
Jason quickly agreed and then took the initiative to send Connor out of the hall.
When Jason and Maddison followed Connor out of the hall, everyone was dumbfounded. They stood rooted to the ground with shock on their faces.
Although Connor and Jason didn't speak very loudly just now, everyone present heard it clearly!
At this mont, everyone realized that his identity might not be as simple as they thought!
..
After Jason and Maddison saw Connor off at the hotel, they returned to the lobby.
anwhile, Bennett hurriedly walked up to Jason and anxiously asked, "Mr. Trent, do you know that person?"
"Not only do I know him, but Connor is also the savior of our Trent family!" Jason replied calmly. Then he turned his head, glanced at Bennett, and asked in a soft voice, "You don't have any conflicts with him, do you?"
"No... no..." Bennett quickly shook his head without hesitation.
"That's good. Don't bla for not warning you. It's better if you don't offend soone like Connor. He's not soone you can afford to offend," Jason reminded him in a low voice.
Upon hearing Jason's words, Bennett hesitated for two seconds and nervously asked, "Mr. Trent, who exactly is this Connor?"
Jason looked at Bennett calmly, then whispered Connor's identity in a voice only they could hear.
After learning Connor's true identity, Bennett froze in place. His eyes showed not only shock but also more shock. He didn't know how to describe his feelings now.
He couldn't have imagined that he had unintentionally offended such a prominent figure.
Beads of sweat instantly covered his forehead, and his body trembled incessantly. He didn't know what to do.
The people present all wore expressions of confusion. They couldn't understand what was happening.
Originally, everyone thought Connor wouldn't be able to leave the lobby today, but no one expected that he would leave so confidently.
Leland, with a swollen face, stood still. He wasn't a fool, and he could vaguely sense that Connor's identity wasn't as simple as Zayn had described.
If Connor were just an ordinary person, how could he possibly know soone like Jason?
"Mr. Trent, I heard that soone has been bothering Miss Salma recently. I wonder if there's any truth to it?" Jason spoke up again, asking Bennett.
Upon hearing Jason's question, Bennett hesitated for a mont, then quickly looked up at Salma's location and asked in a low voice, "Salma, has anyone been bothering you recently?"
...
Salma hesitated for a mont, then without thinking, she pointed directly at the position of Zayn and said loudly, "Zayn has been pestering all the ti!"
