Chapter 225
Susan was startled and her face slightly changed, her voice cooling down, “What are you doing here?”
Allen’s excitement surged, “I came specifically to see you. Ah no, I mean, to visit Storm Group.”
Ben was speechless.
Susan was also speechless.
Allen eagerly said, “Miss, since fate has brought us together again, how about I invite you for a coffee?”
Susan was speechless again
Ben looked emotionlessly at Allen, “Today’s tour is over. Prince Allen, you may leave now.”
“But Mr. Landor, I haven’t finished the tour yet,” Allen quickly protested, “I’m not leaving.”
Ben raised an eyebrow and called security to escort Allen out.
Allen was wailing as he was being taken out, “I don’t want to leave, I’m not ready to go. Ben, you’re ruining diplomatic relations between our countries, you’ll pay for this.
Ben simply ignored him.
Allen continued his lament as he was ushered out
At the entrance of Storm Group, as Allen was being carried out, he caught a glimpse of Eason, shocked.
Eason, in a formal suit and a high–ranking executive at Storm Group, had personally welcomed him in.
Allen’s eyes lit up, thinking he found his savior, and he loudly called out, “Eason, it’s me, I don’t want to be thrown out. Save me, please save me”
The executive looked at Eason strangely, “Mr. Nicholas, do you know him?”
Eason quickly averted his gaze. “I don’t know him.”
Allen was at a loss for words.
He was about to say more when Eason gave him a warning look.
Allen felt a chill and reluctantly shut his mouth. He watched Eason enter Storm Group with a resentful look, while
he himself was unceremoniously dumped into a car at the entrance.
“Shall we go inside to discuss business?” the executive suggested.

Eason, composed, replied, “Of course.”
Allen, that fool.
He was told not to do anything unnecessary, yet he still did.
As for why Allen was thrown out, Eason could guess.
He must have done something impulsive right there.
But he was different.
He too came for Susan.
But he knew the importance of taking things step by step.
For instance, start by doing business with Storm Group, and then gradually get in touch with Ben and Susan.
Little did he know, another person was already on his way, all for Susan.
Ben asked Susan with a hint of curiosity, “Susan, have you met this Prince Allen before?”
Susan’s expression immediately turned indescribable.
“What’s wrong?” Ben’s look became menacing, “Did he bother you?”
Just the thought of it made Ben feel like he could kill.
This Allen, daring to flirt with Susan right in front of him.
Who knows what he might have done to Susan when Ben wasn’t around..
“Not really,” Susan said, “He just insisted he fell in love with me at first sight and said he wanted to pursue me. But I didn’t expect him to… chase me all the way to the company.”
Ben was speechless.
He suddenly felt the urge to bring Allen back.
First this, then that, and then throw him straight into the river.
“You say he’s a prince?” Susan couldn’t help but ask.
Ben snorted coldly, “Just a fifth in line to the throne. Wait and see, I’ll bring him back, chop off a few of his fingers first
“Alright, stop it,” Susan said with a smile, “If you do that, you really will affect the relations between our two

countries. Plus, this Allen seems to be friends with Thomas.”
“Thomas?” Ben’s expression grew even more dangerous.
Susan nodded, “Remember last time, when I accompanied Theresa on her date with Thomas? He brought Allen along. That’s when I met Allen.”
Ben narrowed his eyes, his expression becoming more menacing.
Thomas!
Fine, very well!
He invests in Thomas’s hospital, and Thomas secretly tries to poach from his turf?
“Thomas didn’t do it on purpose, he didn’t know this would happen,” Susan said:
Inwardly, she scoffed.
Her initial impression of Thomas was quite positive
But after the incident involving Monica, she felt a bit irritated.
Last time, Thomas bringing Allen along for the date was even more outrageous.
Even without Allen insisting he liked her, Thomas going on a date and bringing someone else, claiming he wasn’t interested in a relationship and had brought someone to date in his stead – was that appropriate?
Wasn’t that like pointing at the girl and saying he wasn’t into her?
Even if it was for Theresa, Susan had to seize the opportunity to give Thomas a little setback.
“He’s probably just too idle these days,” Ben said through gritted teeth.
“Don’t get too upset, it’s enough. I’m off to work now,” Susan advised, then slipped back to her office.
Half an hour later.
Thomas was sprawled on the bed.
He knew Ben could be quite sarcastic.
Most of the time, Ben’s sarcasm was directed at others, and Thomas found it quite amusing to listen to.
When Ben’s sarcasm was directed at him, Thomas truly felt like he had hit rock bottom.
Naturally, the incident with Allen had come to light.
Chapter 225
Allen had even dared to go to Storm Group and, in front of Ben, invited Susan for coffee.
As the person responsible for Allen meeting Susan, Thomas felt that Ben not coming after him with an axe was already a sign of their deep friendship.
But even so.
Ben brutally declared that for every time Allen appeared in front of Susan, he would cut the investment by 2 million dollars.
Now, the investment had already been reduced by 2 million dollars.
Despairing, Thomas shakily made a call to Allen.
“Allen, what kind of prince are you?”
Allen’s voice was as enthusiastic as ever, “Thomas, you know about my status? Although our backgrounds are different, I hope this doesn’t affect our friendship. I just advanced you to the top of my friends‘ list. You are now my best Foreign friend. As for the previous number one, I’ve demoted him to the bottom. Do you want to know why? Let me tell you…”
Once Allen started talking, he wouldn’t stop.
Thomas felt his head ache and quickly interrupted, “I don’t want to know.”
Allen fell silent for a moment, then said, “That’s a pity. He did something so outrageous to me, I just wanted to vent to someone. Maybe you should listen? You know, when I was passing by him, he actually.
Thomas’s headache worsened, and he said, “Allen. To be honest, Ben is my best friend, and I hope you won’t
disturb his marriage anymore.”
Allen was taken aback, then screamed, “You traitor, you’ve betrayed me! Were you bribed by that jerk? I tell you, I
won’t give up.”
With that, he hung up the phone.
When Thomas tried to call back, Allen didn’t answer.
Thomas’s expression grew even more distressed.
He stared at his phone for a while, then found Theresa’s contact information.
He took the initiative to call, “Miss Austin, may I treat you to a meal?”
“No need, goodbye, Theresa was about to hang up.
Thomas, unabashedly, said, “If you don’t agree, I’ll tell your mother.”
