Leon went back to the grocery store to get another set of groceries. Because Aria would get notified if he bought the same thing with the card she gave him, he paid with the allowance she gave him every month to get whatever he wanted.Then he walked out of the store, hailed a taxi and got in. When he got home, he found the door ajar. Dean was in the living room with two of his friends as they played an online shooting game with the TV. “I didn’t know you had a brother, Dean.” One of his friends murmured seeing Leon walk in. Dean briefly tore his eyes away from his game to see who he was talking about and snorted. “I don’t have a brother. That’s my sister’s husband. He looks normal, but he’s an idiot who thinks like a child.” “How is it I’ve never seen him before?” The second boy asked, pausing his game to look at Leon as well. “He’s always up in their room or working around the house. Besides, my mother banned him from loitering around the living room when we have visitors.” Dea

After Leon got off the phone with Grant, a breaking news came into his phone. He was going to discard it as always when he sighted a familiar name on it. He frowned slightly seeing it said Kevin Larol was dead. Did the thugs go after him? No, they wouldn’t dare. They were ready to beat him to a pulp just to get on the Larol family’s good side. If it wasn’t them, then who was it? A thought suddenly struck Leon and he frowned slightly. The last person the Larol family knew Kevin was with was him. In that case, that means they’d definitely pin his death on him. The thought had just occurred to him when a call came into his phone. It was Wentworth’s country code and not a restricted number. He didn’t need to answer it to know who it was. But he answered it just to be clear. As soon as he did, the caller threatened, “Leon Bartlett, if you do not want to die a miserable death, get into a taxi and bring yourself to the Larol family residence in the next five minutes. Failure to do so

Leon stared down at rhem with icy eyes and the men, who were still unconscious, trembled in fright and tried to crawl backward, but there was no strength left in their arm to do so. “We are merely hired fighters. We were just acting on orders!” They quickly cried out when Leon began walking towards them. Leon, who had no intention of doing anything else to them, looked away from them and settled it on Gavin. “What part of, I didn’t kill your son, do you not understand?” “You were the last person my son was with and you have every reason to kill him. Do you take me as a fool?” Gavin gritted his teeth in annoyance and anger. Leon looked away from him and turned around to leave, but paused and shrugged without glancing back at him, “Whether you believe me or not is none of my business.” “I came here to make that clear. Furthermore, since Kevin is now dead, it is no longer my intention to go ahead with the bet I made with him.” Then he continued on his way out. Everyone quickly tu

While this was going on, the Larol family residence was unusually quiet for a few hours as they all thought long and hard about their current situation. “I heard of this company who specializes in literally everything. I believe we would be able to get people a hundred times stronger than Calvin Heinz if we go to them for help.” “Are you talking about the Bartlett Group?” “Yes, the Bartlett Group.” “Do you know how much it costs to have an audience with them? We’d spend all the money we have just to get to speak with one of their representatives.” “Still, isn’t it worth it? Our Larol family was humiliated like this by those two lowlifes and we even lost Kevin to them. If we just sit on our hands and do nothing, the other families will think we are pushovers.” “When you put it like that, I can’t help but agree with you. But we’ll have to ask the family head and hear what he says.” Jeff was sitting by a corner, massaging his aching neck while seething from the humiliation Falvin

“Wh-what?” Aria blinked in surprise. “But no matter how strong Leon is, he’s still an idiot. What can he do if his employer is in danger?” Jeff got up on his feet and turned to look at her with a small smile hovering around his face, “That’s what makes him the perfect person to protect me, Ms. Miller.” “He’s an idiot. Meaning he’d obey every word I say without thinking twice. I hear he listens to everything you say.” “So as long as you ask him to protect me, he’d have no choice but to do as you please.” Aria looked away from him and shook her head hesitantly, “Still, Leon has the IQ of a 5-year-old, he’s not mentally…” “Isn’t the Miller Group owing the bank?” Jeff abruptly shut her off, and turned away from her to look at Joseph. Joseph’s face flushed in embarrassment but he nodded, and asked curiously, “Yes, we are. Not to sound disrespectful, but how do you know that, Mr. Larol?” Jeff slipped his hands into his pocket and pretended to be nonchalant about the question. “Famil
