Marshall's Corporation. Leonard had taken over Miles Corporation barely a week ago and he ordered that the name be changed to Marshall's Corporation which was carried out according to his orders. Right now, he was going through some files in his office. Coincidentally, he found Herman's file. The cooperation between their companies wasn't cut off by him but by the former president, Connor, because of some business strategy developed by him. Meanwhile, Herman drove into the parking lot and walked out of his car towards the doors of the company not bothering to wait for Trisha. He walked arrogantly to the front desk, Trisha coming in behind him. "Where's that good-for-nothing fellow Leonard?" He asked. Ashley raised her brows at the insulting tone of Herman, but she still had to be polite. "Do you have an appointment?" She asked with smile. Herman narrowed his eyes. " Do I still need to have an appointment before I see my nephew in-law?" Nephew in-law? Ashley was surprised. Ev
Leonard sneered with a ruthless look on his face. "Pull down this whole place you say? I haven't seen someone who comes to plead with another using a threatening tone." "You…" Herman went red with anger. Leonard was definitely getting out of control just because he finally had him in his hands. "Leonard, stop talking to uncle Herman in that manner. He's an elder." Leonard looked at them with a calm expression and said coldly. "Leave before I ask the security to chase you out!" Herman pointed furiously at him with his finger. " You will regret this Leonard!" With that, he stomped off angrily with Trisha walking behind. "Did I ask you to leave?!" Trisha stopped abruptly in her steps and spun around. Leonard thrusted his hands into his pockets and walked towards her. "I never told you to leave. You slapped my receptionist and you think you can leave just like that. You have to apologize to her for your unruly behavior. Ashley!" Ashley was stunned and she slowly took steps toward
"And who do we have here?" Jordan said with a sneer. Leonard and the ladies looked up at him annoyed with his intrusion but to their surprise he wasn't alone but with two others. Leonard's face twitched with recognition. The young man standing in front of him was the same one who had humiliated at George's party. He could easily recognize Martin who was cowardly hiding at the back of another tall and handsome young man, but he merely saw them as insignificant figures. Leonard took a sip of his drink not bothering with them. Mary was furious. She had witnessed how Jordan had humiliated Leonard at her father's party so she was certain he came here to make trouble. "What do you want?" She asked coldly. Tyson took the lead to reply her. "You must be Miss McKay. I'm Tyson Benson." Mary raised her brows without interest. " And so? That doesn't state the reason for your intrusion." Tyson was enraged but he had keep calm. Mary's father was the richest man in the city while his family
Leonard had a calm expression on his face, he was even checking the time on his wristwatch occasionally. "Punk, you still act arrogantly when you are just nothing!" Jordan barked furiously at him. Leonard just kept mute and stared at him with an amused look. In his eyes, Jordan resembled a loosed dog barking at strangers. "Leonard, if you kneel and kowtow to me I will let you off for insulting me or my friends or else I will beat up to a pulp, strip you naked and make you dance for us!" Tyson said rolling up his sleeves. Everyone was well aware of Tyson's tyrannical behavior. He was muscular due to frequent visits to the gym. He also threatening to strip Leonard naked seemed to arouse a tinge of interest in the ladies for Leonard had a good figure and it would be entertaining to watch. Meanwhile, Leonard was just a tall and slim man. Tyson felt that he could definitely break Leonard's limbs without difficulty. "I'm sure you're only here to beg Miss Mary for money and stripping yo
The man who had tried to harm them was clearly an assassin. Leonard had felt a deadly aura around them and immediately a masked man dressed in black appeared, holding a dagger towards Clementine's neck. However, Leonard's moves were swift. Using his legs, he kicked the masked man. If it were an ordinary person, the mighty kick Leonard gave would have injured his internal organs but this assassin was strong. He staggered backwards without falling to the ground. He was enraged. All this happened in a matter of just five seconds. Clementine was too wary to notice that Leonard was protecting them because the street lights were cut off and the whole place was covered with darkness. Leonard made sure he shielded them and pursued the man, when he saw Clementine drive speedily away, he was relieved. "Who are you?" The masked man asked. This punk just came out of nowhere and ruined his plans. He was enraged! Leonard stared at him with a menacing gaze, his aura exuding from the murderous
Mary and Leonard spun around. Immediately Mary's eyes landed on the owner of the voice, her face darkened. "What are you doing here?!" Mary inquired with an angry expression. It was obvious that whoever stopped them from walking into the restaurant was in her bad books. A young, tall handsome man in his 20's was staring at them with a jealous gaze. Jordan was beside him. "Punk, what are you doing with her?!" He inquired arrogantly, jealousy evident in his voice. Leonard took a glance at him and turned his face away indifferently. He wasn't worth Leonard's interest. The young man was angered by Leonard's nonchalant attitude. "Nicholas, you have no right to ask my guest that question," Mary said angrily. Mary subconsciously slipped her hand unto Leonard's, making him look at her with a surprised gaze. Feeling Leonard's gaze on her, she looked up at him with pleading look and Leonard nodded understandingly. It seems the young man has been pestering her and she wanted Leonard to
Mary had invited Leonard over for lunch with some of her schoolmates from the University and also as an apology treat for what had happened last night. So, when Nicholas had arrived, Mary's mood was ruined and she hoped to get back her glow while catching up with her friends and so she faked a smile and took Leonard to a private booth. "Oh! Look Mary has finally arrived!" A feminine voice chimed excitedly. Mary walked in, exchanging pleasantries with them. No one noticed Leonard who was behind Mary as they merely thought that he was her bodyguard. They were ten in number, dressed in expensive wears. "Everyone meet Leonard. He's a friend," Mary said happily, pushing Leonard forward. While Mary took her time to introduce Leonard to everyone, they were sizing him up with disdain in their eyes. Meanwhile, Leonard stared at them with peculiar gazes. He actually knew few of these people. Some were his classmates from high school. Leonard noticed their stares filled with disgust an
"You don't have to leave because of such petty matters. I will get a waitress to bring a chair for him," Emily said. Collins shot Emily a glare, then said to Mary smilingly, " Mary, you don't have to leave, okay?" Mary inhaled sharply and sat down, staring at Leonard with an apologetic look. She brought him here to have a good time but instead he was getting humiliated. Few minutes later, a waitress came in with a chair and Leonard sat down. "So what are you doing now Leonard?" Emily asked, trying to strike a conversation. Leonard opened his mouth to reply but Collins interrupted. "I heard that he got married to one of the beauties in the city as a live-in husband." " You are married?!" Emily gasped with surprise, staring at Mary. "Yes, I was. But, we got divorced," Leonard replied with a faint smile. " Hmph, maybe she divorced you after finding out of your scandal," Collins said taking a spoonful of his rice. The rest bursts into laughter. Mary pursed her mouth but Leonard
