Son-in-law of Fortune

CHAPTER 19

In this situation, no matter how hard Adeline tried, she couldn't have imagined that Leon would set her up. And from beginning to end, Ada's Lewis was acting on purpose, setting a trap for her to fall into.

She had even been slapped three times, which was a great humiliation. Especially since Leon was well-prepared, this time she was in the wrong. If she refused to compromise, the one who would ultimately suffer would be herself. Otherwise, Leon might make a big deal out of this matter within the Arrision family. "I was too impulsive this time and accidentally hurt my in-law. I apologize here." Adeline looked frustrated, cursing Leon in her heart countless times.

Upon hearing this apology, Emily and Lex were completely speechless, shocked to the point where their jaws almost dropped to the ground. Leon calmly spoke up, "What about the medical expenses?"

Adeline's mouth twitched, wishing she could tear Leon into pieces. She cursed Leon for being a true lion with a big mouth. The beating that Emily and Lex received was simply too expensive!

Ada's Lewis timely interjected, "Madam, a sincere apology should come with sincerity." Adeline was immediately enraged, her eyes glaring as if she wanted to eat Ada's Lewis alive.

In the end, she had to suppress her anger, grit her teeth, and say with a grim face, "I'll give you the medical expenses!" After speaking, Adeline took out her checkbook without hesitation, wrote a check for two billion dollars, and handed it to Leon.

Avril witnessed the whole process and was already stunned, like a Wooden chicken. "You have a good attitude. I hope you can keep it up." Leon spoke meaningfully, then took the check and turned around, leaving with Emily and Lex. When the people were completely gone, Adeline finally erupted, overturning the table on the spot and pointing at Ada's Lewis nose, gnashing her teeth and cursing, "Ada's Lewis, you bastard, how dare you help this wild seed to plot against me!"

"I, Adeline, have never been so embarrassed in my life!"

"Avril was beaten to a pulp yesterday, and today I was slapped three times by Leon and had to pay him back!" Ada's Lewis coughed a few times and bowed slightly to Adeline, saying, "Madam, I'm sorry, but I was specifically instructed by the master to assist the young master, and this is the young master's intention. How can I, as a servant, disobey?"

"You still have the nerve to talk back?" Adeline was furious and raised her hand to slap Ada's Lewis, venting her anger.

Instead of dodging, Ada's Lewis leaned forward and said, "Madam, if you have any dissatisfaction, go ahead and hit me. But if you slap me, I don't know if I can hold back and won't tell the master!" "Now you dare to threaten me?" Adeline was about to explode.

"Madam, I advise you to follow the master's intentions and not have any other ideas. The young master is not an ordinary person, to avoid a humiliating end." Ada's Lewis said solemnly. "You get out of here!" Adeline Cursed.

Meanwhile, Leon and Emily's siblings were sitting in a car together. The car was silent for a long time, without any movement. This situation lasted for a full ten minutes. Emily wanted to speak but hesitated and found it difficult to speak. Finally, Lex broke the silence with a bitter tone, "Leon, I didn't expect you to come in person this time to help us."

"I appreciate it. I regret what I did before. I promise not to trouble you again. You can get married whenever you want." Emily changed his attitude from before. Leon looked at the two of them and wanted to laugh. But for the sake of family harmony and not wanting to cause too much trouble, Leon did not reveal the truth and sighed, "Why bother with all this? If you had done this earlier, there would have been no need for all this trouble."

"You even tried to bypass me and arrange for the elders to meet with Ada's Lewis. Now you know what fear is, right?" "If it weren't for Ada's Lewis notifying me in time, it would still be a question whether you could make it out alive today!" Ada's Lewis and Lex looked at each other and couldn't help but show a grateful expression.

They were greedy for money, but when it came to life and death, money was useless. Emily solemnly praised, "Leon, I apologize to you here. From now on, whatever you say goes in this house, and I have no objections." Lex patted his chest and said, "That's right, if you're still not satisfied, you can slap me twice now, and I promise not to make a sound." "Forget it, as long as you don't cause trouble for Evita, I'm already satisfied. As for the twenty billion check in my hand..." Leon deliberately paused.

Emily quickly waved her hand and said, "We don't want this money, you can keep it for yourself." "Are you sure? This is twenty billion, it's your medical expenses." Leon smiled. "We are now people with some principles. If you treat us as family, we will have these things sooner or later. There is no need for it now. We were just confused for a while before." Lex raised his voice as if he was afraid that Leon wouldn't understand.

Leon smiled and said, "In that case, I'|| keep this check for myself. Let me send you back first. Later, I'll go to the bank. Today's events never happened in front of Evita." Half an hour later in Cuba Bank. As soon as Leon entered the bank, he ran into an old acquaintance. "isn't this Leon? Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that after a year or two, you still look so poor."

The person speaking was dressed up and heavily made up. She was Leon's ex-girlfriend, Sophia. Sophia came from a wealthy family and was the daughter of the Lambert family, a first-line family in Cuba. Leon and Sophia had met by chance in college, but their relationship was short-lived due to Sophia's vanity and constant complaints. She had dumped Leon.

Sophia carried an expensive handbag and exuded a sense of superiority. She said, "I was blind back then. I still don't understand how I could have been attracted to a loser like you." "It's been so long, why are you still holding a grudge against me?" Leon said calmly. Sophia looked disdainful. "Don't try to flatter yourself. I just didn't like you. But I heard you hooked up with Emerald, the only daughter of the White family. You can't change your ways, can you? You must be dreaming about how to live off a Woman."

"It seems like you're still paying attention to me, but sorry, you may not know enough," Leon shook his head. Sophia looked smug and sneered, "Don't pretend here. You were with me because of my family background, weren't you?" "If I hadn't been smart enough to dump you early on, I might have been in a much worse situation now," Leon retorted.

"But this time, I'm afraid your hopes will be dashed again. I have accurate information that Emerald and Freya are already engaged. You know who Freya is, don't you?"
