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
One of the burly men stretched out his hand to grab Mary and bring her over to Nicholas.Leonard stared at him with a knife piercing murderous intent in his eyes making the man shudder in fear."Try touching her and see," He threatened.Nicholas scoffed and sneered, " Still trying to be arrogant. Matthew, bring that girl over to me and I will increase your bonus by 2%."Hearing that Nicholas had offered to raise his bonus by 2% made him gain more courage.With a fierce look on his face, he reached out again to grab Mary but with a lightning-like speed, Leonard grabbed his hand and gave it a tight squeeze.Sounds of bones breaking filled the air and Matthew let out a blood curling scream making Nicholas go pale. Leonard had obviously broken his wrist!"Ah!""Let go of me punk!" He cried, his face pale as sheet.He hadn't felt such pain in years.Leonard stared at him with calm and relaxed expression and pushed him away making him land several metres away from them.Leonard hadn't used h
Brooklyn. Clusters of Villas stood elegantly with a majestic view on the outskirts of the city. Inside one of such beautiful Villas stood a middle-aged man in a study room. The room was filled with his strong overwhelming and domineering aura making his subordinates in the room to shiver with fear. His facial appearance revealed that he was Italian. His face was characterized by a strong jawline, prominent cheekbones, and dark eyes which dilated within their sockets with rage in them. His full lips and thick eyebrows framed his darkened face nicely. His waist long blond hair was packed into a ponytail behind his hand. Bang! He stared at his subordinates with a stern look on his face and said, "Where's my son?" His men shivered with fright exchanging glances with each other. The Italian man clenched his fist and hit the table furiously. "When I ask a question you answer me!" He took out his gun and pulled the trigger sending a bullet into one of them. The size on a pinhole a
10am, Golden Pavilion. Golden Pavilion was one of most exquisite and queenly jewelry/antique stores in New York. Most of the products here were quite expensive that only those of higher class status could afford the things sold here. This establishment was owned by Clementine Howard. Clementine Howard is Mary McKay's best friend and once had a drink with Leonard at Angel's Share. Leonard walked into the store and spotted Clementine speaking to one of her staff in a domineering tune. She looked more bossy here then when he had met her in Angel's share. "Hello Miss Howard," Leonard said with a faint smile. Clementine turned around and her face curved into a deep frown immediately her eyes met with his. "What do you want?" She asked in cold voice which made Leonard raise a brow in confusion. "Uhm, Mary told me you specialise in repairing broken jewelries so I brought mine here hoping you could help." "Fine. Stand over there and wait, I have to attend to other customers who wer
