Chapter 169 I Will Gather The Leaders Of Channing

The next day, Benson Smith and Samuel Smith hosted their birthday celebrations at Indigo Hotel's

Peony Hall and Lotus Hall respectively.

Sean Smith, Paul Smith and the rest of the members of the Smith family were gathered at the Lotus

Hall, where Samuel Smith's luncheon was held.

Relatives and friends who had started streaming in, dropped by the Peony Hall to pass Benson Smith a

small gift, before heading to Samuel Smith's side with the expensive presents.

As the time approached noon, Samuel Smith's Lotus Hall was already filled with guests who were there

to celebrate his birthday; more people were flowing in.

On the other hand, Benson Smith's Peony Hall was cold and cheerless.

Apart from the hotel's service crew, Benson, Leah, Nathan, Queenie and Penny were the only people

there. Not even one guest was present.

Suddenly, a man who was dressed in suit, walked in. It was Joe Harris, Benson's cousin.

It was a rare sight that someone else other than Benson Smith's family itself had shown up. Naturally,

Benson, together with his family, welcomed him warmly, "Joe, it's good to see you."

Joe Harris's smile extended to his eyes as he took out a gift box and handed it to Benson Smith.
