The butler gave up. He had been influenced by Leon's words. He was afraid that John would be angry with him for letting Leon stay there too long, not going straight to work.

Not wanting Dion to feel suspicious, Leon immediately neutralized his feelings, pretending not to know Dion. 'Damn! Why did he have to show up? Shouldn't he be leaving today?' Leon thought angrily."Who are you? Why did you come into my house?" Dion asked while looking at Leon and Henri alternately. Dion felt like he didn't recognize the two people. He was surprised, where did they come from, why suddenly there were two strangers wearing masks and pest control uniforms. Dion also didn't feel like he had called them. "We are pest control officers, sir. It was Mr. John who called us to come to your house." Henri answered it, beca

Dion snapped with a red face because it was covered in anger."I should be the one asking, what did you do to my wife."Leon said it calmly, as if he was not afraid and disturbed by Dion's gun pointing. "Wife? A wife who doesn't want the marriage? Vero is my lover. She only loves me." Dion remained firm in his opinion, he did not accept Veronica marrying someone else. "Lover?

Leon became increasingly panicked as he checked Veronica's weak pulse. Indeed, bad thoughts began to wander through his mind. "Vero! Wake up, Vero!" Veronica's eyes remained closed, making Leon feel frustrated. He could no longer hold back his sadness. Tears flowed freely without being able to hold them back. Competing to wet his cheeks and firm jaw. "Vero, wake up, honey! Don't go!" Leon shook his wife's body, hoping she would open her eyes and smile. However, hope was just hope, the woman's minimalist eyes remained tightly closed."Hurry up, Henri!" Finally, Henri became the target of Leon's anxiety. Henri increased the speed of his car.

Making Leon's heart beat faster, his minimalist eyes sparkled with hope, he rushed over. "Nurse, how is my wife?"The nurse who had just come out of the operating room stared at Leon closely. There was a cloud on the face of the woman in white. "Excuse me, Sir. Madam's operation is over. But Madam Veronica is in a coma and no one can meet her yet." Leon's heart seemed to stop beating when he heard the nurse's words. And at that moment a doctor was also seen about to come out. Leon immediately stopped him. "Doctor, how is my wife?" Leon asked the doctor aga

64. Danger Lurks"Uncle Robert. What else? Haven't I left all the decisions to him? Is there something important there?" Leon certainly wondered in his heart.

However, today, Robert suddenly called Leon. It made Leon immediately think of the company he left behind."Hello, Uncle Robert. Is there something urgent and important?"

Hanamura had ordered different glasses for Leon and Robert so that they would not be mixed up. Then Aurelia cleverly placed each glass in front of Leon and Robert without arousing the slightest suspicion.In the middle of Robert's meal, he choked so he immediately reached for his drink, then he gulped it down until half the glass was left. After that he continued eating. Robert's meal was not even half finished, but the man kept yawning. For some reason, he suddenly felt so sleepy that Robert couldn't focus on eating.

"It looks like Leon! Come on, faster!" Aurelia exclaimed.Aurelia saw a figure of a man walking a little ahead of them. She was sure that it was Leon. Judging from the suit he was wearing, it was exactly the same color as the one Leon had worn earlier.
