Chapter 494: Chapter 494: Do you want me to carry you?
Olivia Jenkins looked surprised as Benjamin Johnson slowly walked towards her.

Pausing for a minute to catch her breath, Olivia Jenkins asked, “Why have you come?”

Benjamin Johnson replied seriously: “Yesterday at noon, when I was on the phone with you, didn’t you mention that this was a charity event initiated by Quiet Video? I wanted to participate, so I came. Even if it means doing grunt work, I’m strong enough, don’t underestimate me.”

Olivia Jenkins gave a faint smile, her face radiant, looking calmly at Benjamin Johnson, “If you decide to stay, it’s tough work indeed. We have to help the villagers harvest, as well as pick oranges and kiwifruits from the mountains, and carry them down with human labor.”

A pleasant curve appeared on the edge of Benjamin Johnson’s lips, “No problem, are meals provided?”

“Meals are on us!”

After a suitable rest, Olivia Jenkins continued ahead, and Benjamin Johnson followed her.

“I’ve noticed that you are already walking lightly, your face is flushed, and your forehead is soaked with sweat. Do you need me to carry you?”

Instantly, Olivia Jenkins looked at Benjamin Johnson very seriously, “Don’t underestimate me. I’m not that fragile. I have run marathons. Normally, Valerie Howard and I practice boxing and taekwondo. Going up the mountain is hard, but coming down is really easy.”

“You slow down, I will walk with you.”

“I’m not here for a trip, I came here for work. It’s genuinely not just a photo op, our entire team is working diligently on this charity project for the farmers. The celebrities I invited, when they signed the contract, we made it clear to them: this is a good cause, not just a chance for them to slack off and increase popularity.”

“I support your idea, and I have a feeling that this public welfare reality show you’re producing is going to be a hit. I’m sure you’ll gain a lot of fans and attention.”

“Funds in the Jenkins Group are limited, every penny spent must be worthwhile, I don’t have the luxury to waste. Whether or not Quiet Video will survive, the fate will be decided by this show. The ratings of the first episode, set to air in two weeks, are particularly important for Quiet Video. So, I must face the fact and do my best.”

Pausing to think for a moment, Benjamin Johnson suddenly looked serious, his handsome face filled with earnest emotion, “I still have money. I’ll invest a billion in the Jenkins Group.”

Olivia Jenkins stared at Benjamin Johnson in astonishment, her eyes wide open.

For a moment, Olivia Jenkins was taken aback, but she still held onto her judgement and sense of propriety.

“Your words already warmed my heart. Benjamin Johnson, thank you, but I don’t need your money. Our team has sufficient funds for production. The program crew has found sponsors and we have advertising revenue. I do not make a loss in production.”

“I admire your courage, and I was moved by your determination, Olivia Jenkins. You are truly an incredible person! Although I am no longer the CEO of Zenith Capital, don’t worry, I still have plenty of money, more than I could ever spend in a lifetime. If you ever need financial support, you can reach out to me anytime. Consider it my investment in your production.”

A confident and proud glow covered Olivia Jenkins’ pretty face, “Seeing you so honourable, I’ve decided to consider you my friend.”

Olivia Jenkins sees him only as a friend, she must really like Daniel.

Although Benjamin Johnson felt a pang of disappointment, he had anticipated this outcome. Therefore, hearing Olivia’s statement was not surprising and he could accept it.

Liking someone doesn’t necessarily require possession. At the same time, Benjamin Johnson was mentally thanking Olivia Jenkins for bringing him joy, for allowing him the courage to move on from his past troubles. Now, he has found his peace.

“Olivia Jenkins, I’ve decided to consider you my friend as well.”
