Lambert Sophia was nervous and apprehensive. The development project of Emerald Resort was the top priority for Zion's Group. If they could seize the opportunity and win the project, they would be able to impress the Arrision family in Cuba and establish a closer relationship with them, gaining more project resources to help the long-term development of Zion's Group.

Zion's Group had made sufficient preparations for the project, including the process of bank loans, which had already been approved quickly.

They were just waiting for the approval of the person in charge of Spring Gold Resort. At this moment, Savage Leif walked out of Villa No.1. When Lambert Sophia saw Savage Leif, she immediately became tense and respectfully approached him.

"Mr. Savage!"

"l am here on behalf of Zion's Group to discuss the project with you." "Zion's Group hopes to finalize this project completely today." Savage Leif nodded slightly, looking very serious, and said, "I cannot make the final decision on this development project!" Sophia trembled suddenly, her face turned pale with fear.

If they couldn't reach an agreement today, she would have no way to explain it when she returned. So Sophia said, "Mr. Savage, you are the highest person in charge here. How can you not make the final decision? Adam's family has already voluntarily withdrawn. Are there any other competitors who can compare with Zion's Group?" Savage Leif replied sternly,

"With the young master here, of course, it is up to the young master to decide!" When Sophia heard the title "young master", she couldn't believe it.

As a first-line family in Panama, the Lambert family may not have the status of the Adam family's servants, the Arrisions, but they have also heard some things about the Arrision family. The young master, Leon, is the heir of the Arrision family and a big shot standing at the top of the pyramid!

"The young master has ordered you to accompany me inside personally, and then decide whether the Zion Group will be responsible for the project." Savage Leif showed his authority and turned around to enter the villa. Sophia hurriedly followed, suppressing her anxious emotions.

The No. 1 villa is the most luxurious existence in the Spring Gold Resort, with carved railings jade walls, and magnificent golden brilliance. As soon as Sophia entered the main hall, she was shocked by the luxurious surroundings, her heart beating wildly.

When she looked up, she saw a figure sitting on the balcony, looking at the calm sea. And beside him, there was a figure of a butler pouring wine. At first glance, Sophia felt extremely familiar, but for a moment, she couldn't remember. Savage Leif slightly bowed, "Mr. Lewis, the person has been brought here."

"Lewis... it's Mr. Lewis!" Sophia's heart was shaken, and she dared not even breathe. Ada's Lewis picked up the wine glass and handed it to Leon, then turned around and looked at Sophia, "There must be no mistakes in this construction project. I don't know how much money the Zion Group has prepared?"

"Reporting to Mr. Lewis, our Zion Group has prepared 800 million dollars to undertake this construction project!" Sophia swallowed her saliva and quickly responded.

Leon held the wine glass and spoke with his back to them, "Out of this 800 million, 500 million is a bank loan, right? If the Zion Group encounters problems during this period, leading to a break in funding and the project being abandoned, who will be responsible?" Sophia's heart trembled. She never expected that the other party would be so familiar with the bank loan that had just been approved!

And most importantly, this voice was also so familiar, as if she had heard it yesterday!

Wait, isn't this Leon's voice? Sophia's mind was buzzing, and she couldn't help but shiver. Could it be? It's impossible!

How could it be Leon? How could that guy be the young master of the Arrision family? This is a joke, right? Leon was previously at the bank, able to produce a check for a sky-high amount. Maybe he won the lottery, or maybe it wasn't even his own money!

Sophia quickly eased her expression and replied, "The recent funds of the Zion Group are indeed a bit tight, but please don't worry." "Because it won't be long before the Zion Group can recover the funds. Even if the project exceeds the budget, the eight hundred million funds are enough to support it until the later stage.

Finally, when the project is completed, Leon will settle with us. "This time, our Zion Group is sincere, and we hope that the Arrision family will give us a chance. Even if we end up losing money in this project, we will give the Arrision family a perfect. explanation and let the Arrision family see our attitude!" After speaking, Sophia became even more nervous, and sweat dripped from her back.

Savage Leif made a gesture of respect and said, "Young Master, as it stands, there is no one else who can match the Zion Group. You see..." "In that case, the Zion Group is selected for this construction project, and you, Savage Leif, will be responsible for supervising the process without any negligence!" Leon took a sip of red wine and put it down slowly. Savage Leif winked and said, "Sophia, why don't you thank the young master?"

"Thank you, young master. Our Zion Group will do our best to ensure the smooth completion of the project!" Zion Group couldn't stop her excitement. She thought that since it was decided by the young master of the Arrision family himself, the relationship between them Would be even closer. Leon said lightly, "Don't be too happy too soon. It was Adam's family who withdrew voluntarily, otherwise it wouldn't be your turn, Zion Group."

"This time, our Zion Group did get lucky, but I want you to know that Zion Group can do what the Adam family did for the Arrision family," Sophia said seriously.

"Let's focus on this matter first. You can leave now. As for the contract, let Savage Leif handle it," Leon waved his hand. After leaving the villa, Sophia felt like she was dreaming. "Thank you for speaking up for me just now, Mr. Savage," Sophia quickly bowed to express her gratitude.

"If you want to thank someone, thank the young master. This time, Zion Group must do a good job. If we disappoint the young master, it will be impossible for Zion Group to advance through Lambert Family, " Savage Leif adjusted his collar.

"Mr. Savage, I have a question. What does the young master look like?" Sophia couldn't help her curiosity. "The young master's identity is so noble, and his appearance is not something that anyone is qualified to see. I advise you not to think about it. Just focus on your work. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain it to the young master," Savage Leif sternly warned.

Sophia immediately shrank her neck and dared not ask any more questions. She thought she must have been mistaken. It couldn't be Leon. They were completely different people. Where did Leon have the aura of an Arrision Family young master in his speech and demeanor? They were like night and day.

    On that day, Leon stayed at Spring Gold Resort while Ada's Lewis rushed to the city due to some unexpected matters. Just when Leon was about to sit down and enjoy himself, his phone kept vibrating. He was surprised to see that it was a group chat with his college classmates, who were all excitedly congratulating Sophia for successfully securing the project at Spring Gold Resort. They praised her for being the most capable among their classmates and for the reputation of the Zion's Group. Sophia even suggested celebrating the occasion by inviting all of their classmates to a banquet at the resort. Leon couldn't help but smile at the flattery and Sophia's tendency to show off, which she had not changed over the years. However, just as Leon was about to close his phone, Sophia suddenly mentioned him in the group chat and sent him a voice message, inviting him to the celebration banquet that evening at Spring Gold Resort. Leon raised his eyebrows and had no intention of respond

    Night falls! The entire Spring Gold resort, illuminated by the night, appears dazzling and colorful. At this moment, Sophia's celebration banquet is also in full swing. For this celebration, Sophia spent a lot of money and specifically booked Villa No. 10 in Spring Gold Resort! Spring Gold Resort has a hundred villas, all arranged according to the house number sequence. The higher the house number, the better the view and the more expensive the price. For example, Sophia's Villa No. 10 costs a staggering 150,000 dollars per night, which is not affordable for ordinary people who can only stay in hotel rooms in the resort. Many classmates arrived at Villa No. 10 one after another and were amazed by the luxury. "It must cost a lot to stay here for one night, right?" "Sophia is rich, or else she wouldn't have invited us all here." "Sophia's vision is extraordinary!" For a moment, the villa was filled with praise. Especially when the expensive champagne and red wine were serv

    In the face of the ridicule before him, Leon remained calm and composed throughout. But when he spoke, he shocked the entire room in an instant. Sophia's whole body tensed up, her heart suddenly gripped as if struck by a thunderbolt. "You mean to say..." she stammered. "This is impossible!" exclaimed another. "How could you be the young master of the Arrision's family?" asked a third. "You have no connection to him whatsoever!" Sophia's throat trembled, and she lost all her momentum. She couldn't stop backing away, her face drained of color. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. Lathan quickly stepped forward to support Sophia and said confidently, "Miss Sophia, the young master of the Arrision family is a person of great status and prestige. How could he be mentioned in the same breath as someone like Leon? This guy is just bragging." Hearing this explanation, Sophia calmed down a bit and nodded in agreement. Then she said, "Lathan is right. Leon, you've gone too far

    This classmate's celebration banquet ended unhappily. Sophia was so terrified that she couldn't do anything about it. No matter how she asked Savage Leif for help, she still couldn't do anything. Gritting her teeth, Savage Leif had no choice but to run to the door of Villa No. 1 and try to ring the doorbell. As a result, Arrision Leon was inside and didn't respond at all, leaving Sophia outside the door. "It's over, it's over!" "My dad has to come over in person tomorrow. If he wants to know about this, how should I explain it?" "The most important thing is that Leon's current attitude is completely unclear, and he may cancel the contract any minute!" Sophia was so frightened that she didn't dare to inform the Zion Group, nor did she dare to leave without permission. She could only guard outside the gate of Villa No. 1 and keep sending messages to Leon. And these messages have changed their previous attitude, apologizing, admitting mistakes, regretting, and begging! It's

    For the sake of this construction project, the Zion Group had spared no effort and was on a hot streak. However, the sudden change in the contract was undoubtedly a heavy blow to the Zion Group. Once this news got out, the entire Zion Group would become the biggest laughingstock in Cuba. "Sofia, what are you still standing there for?" "Are you happy only when I'm in a hurry?" "Is there a misunderstanding between you and the young master? You'd better be honest and explain it clearly." Elvis was anxious, his face full of anxiety. Under such circumstances, Sofia finally couldn't bear it anymore. Her legs bent, and she fell to the ground with a thump, telling the whole story of the incident. Upon hearing what happened last night, Elvis was furious and cursed, You bastard, how could you do such a ridiculous thing? The young master had already hinted at you before, and you couldn't fail to recognize it. "As a result, you were so stupid that you didn't understand that the young m

    Why should I consult with others when I, Leon, make decisions? "The project in Spring Gold Resort doesn't require such a fuss," said Ariana, sitting upright with an imposing air. "It should be straightforward and handed over to the Zion Group for management." "| wonder who came up with such a ridiculous idea!" she continued, her tone full of indignation. Elvis and Sophia exchanged a strange look but remained silent. "Of course, it was my idea," Leon said, looking around at everyone before calmly picking up his teacup. Ariana slammed the table in anger. "Leon, you are only the young master. You cannot make decisions about the development of the Arrision family's businesses. Even if you want to pave the way for Emerald, you should discuss it with your elders instead of acting recklessly here!" Seeing this, Elvis felt a sense of relief. Ariana was indeed the legitimate wife of the Arrision family, and her attitude was tough. She didn't give Leon any face at all! At this criti

    They walked out of the villa gate. Sophia felt as if she had been granted a reprieve as if she had just experienced a nightmare. However, the moment they stepped out, Elvis's expression darkened and he slapped Sophia hard across the face in front of all the senior executives of the group. "Dad.." Sophia covered her face with her right hand, tears welling up in her eyes. Elvis's scolded her angrily, his eyes wide with fury. "Don't pretend to be pitiful in front of me. If it weren't for you, things wouldn't have escalated to this point. Do you know how close we were to not being able to leave just now? Do you know how ruthless the young master is?" Sophia looked pitifully at him and tugged at his sleeve. "It's all my fault this time, Dad. Don't be angry. Anyway, things have come to an end and our Zion Group has come out unscathed, right?" Elvis shook her off and pointed at her nose, scolding her. "Don't try to fool me. If it weren't for the fact that our Zion Group still

    The incident in Cuba has been reported to Panama through Ariana. The old lady in Cuba was furious upon hearing about it. Listening to the description on the phone, Leon couldn't help but find it extremely ridiculous. After being abandoned for more than 20 years and relying on each other for survival, he had gone through hardships. And now, instead of Leon being angry, some people were getting angry. This was simply a huge joke! "Must I, Leon, always follow others' wishes and do things according to their orders?" Leon held the phone, and the cold light in his eyes became even stronger in an instant. The voice on the other end of the phone urged, "I am doing this for your good. You must perform well in front of your grandmother. Only by gaining her approval can your position in the Arrision family be truly solidified in the future." "I don't think you are doing this for my good. You are only doing this because there is no one else to take over, and Avril is incapable of sho

    Faced with this situation, Tiger could hardly believe that Leo was still alive! What surprised Tiger even more was that he knew about it! It must be noted that Leo was the beloved of the old lady and had always been protected by her, and she had given him absolute inheritance lights early on. If it weren't for Leo's accident overseas, Leon would never have had a chance to take over, let alone have any opportunity at all! If the old lady found out that Leo was still alive, the situation would definitely cause a huge upheaval, and even if Leon had a thousand abilities, he would not be able to escape the old lady's suppression! Thinking of this, Tiger couldn't help but start to breathe heavily. Especially when he thought of the various grievances he had suffered and the scene of being blocked outside the door, Tiger's expression changed as if he had finally found a chance to turn the tables. So Tiger immediately said, "I didn't expect that Leo was still alive, and that my L

    "What are you guys doing?" Seeing Lyrick's actions, Coco was momentarily stunned. Lyrick quickly realized Coco had come down from upstairs and immediately straightened his back, pretending nothing had happened. He hooked his arm around Leon's shoulder and smiled, "It's nothing, I dropped something and was just picking it up." Coco didn't think much of it and thought Lyrick was telling the truth. She hurriedly walked over and said, "I thought something was wrong with you guys. Lyrick, you're so forgetful, you almost forgot your keys." "Look at my memory, if you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten!" Lyrick slapped his forehead and picked up the forgotten keys before leaving. As soon as he was out of sight, Coco's face changed and she glared at Leon, saying, "Leon, are you.satisfied with how things have turned Out?" "Cousin, this is all your fault from start to finish. What does my satisfaction have to do with anything?" Leon replied calmly. Coco snorted, "If it weren'

    With the business card in his hand, Lyrick's eyes widened in shock. The card was from the Family Chamber of Commerce, and it belonged to the president, Caleb! At that moment, Lyrick's mind went blank, and he was almost overwhelmed by the realization of the value of this card. As a member of the Reynolds family in Cartel, he knew better than anyone else that not everyone was qualified to receive such a card, especially with the Chamber of Commerce seal on it. It was then that Lyrick finally understood everything that Leon had said. Leon was the young master, and the young master was Leon. And Coco's family background was definitely protected and deliberately Concealed. Lyrick's heart raced, and he struggled to maintain his composure. He looked at Caleb, then at Leon and Coco, who had not yet sat down, and his scalp tingled. But before Lyrick could say anything, and before Coco could notice anything, Caleb quickly took the card back and put it back in her pocket. She

    That night, after work, Leon went out with Lyrick. For this meeting, Lyrick had bought many expensive gifts on the way, intending to personally give them to Stevin and show his filial piety to gain the approval of his elders. In addition, Lyrick kept talking about the events of the day, repeatedly exclaiming in amazement. "The young master is truly amazing. He struck like thunder. Tiger must be feeling very frustrated right now!" "But on the other hand, Tiger also thinks very highly of himself. His ambitions have long been known to everyone, and he has had more than one conflict with President Godfrey in private. He really thought that without any evidence in hand and with the Light family's status in Jinling, no one could do anything to him. But when the young master issued that document, he didn't care about any of that. He was simply too clever for his Own good!" "if I have the chance, I really want to see the young master with my own eyes, up close, and see wh

    "Because..." Soko was almost suffocating, his heart pounding, the answer was about to come out. Unfortunately, at this critical moment, Leon suddenly took a step forward and interrupted Soko's words, saying, "Of course it's because of a guilty conscience that Soko is in a hurry to leave!" Soko's throat tightened, instantly understanding Leon's meaning, that he didn't want to reveal his identity so quickly and deliberately interrupted him! Tiger retorted confidently, "This is simply nonsense, where does the guilty conscience come from!" Leon swept the room and said unabashedly, "As far as I know, since the establishment of the Keartonia branch, the Light family has been behind the scenes, intending to control the branch's power, and there have been many frictions with President Godfrey." "I think everyone knows these things, it's just that they haven't been brought to the surface yet. How could the young master not know?" Tiger angrily rebuked, "You have no evidence, don't

    With the exposure of the punishment document, the whole scene suddenly became uproarious. Many high-level officials present were all at a loss and found it unbelievable. "It's actually a punishment document?" Tiger's face turned pale, and he couldn't believe that things would develop in this direction. Soko suddenly turned his head, his eyes bulging with shock as he looked at Leon. His throat seemed to be blocked by a stone, and he couldn't speak a word. His heart was even more turbulent. Godfrey held the document and announced one of the punishments publicly, "Yes, this is a punishment document. From now on, Tiger will be suspended and will not serve as the vice president!" Upon hearing this punishment, Tiger was even more incredulous. His whole face turned iron blue, and he immediately questioned, "Why such a severe punishment for me? l don't think I have done anything wrong!" "The young master has his reasons for doing so. If you are not satisfied, you can go to the hea

    Within just five minutes, the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce issued a document, which was unexpectedly fast. Soko widened his eyes and tensed up, finding it hard to believe that such a coincidence could happen, especially with the summoning of a meeting by Godfrey. He was extremely nervous about the content of the headquarters' document. When he asked about it, he was told that the document wasconfidential and would only be announced during the meeting. Soko did not get a clear answer, and his heart raced even faster. Could it really be as Leon described? Soko did not want to believe that he would be so unlucky as to be caught in the cross hairs. Soko gritted his teeth and said, "Leon, the document has not been announced yet. We don't know the result. Maybe it's just about the development of the branch?" "If the document needs to be announced during the meeting, why not go to the conference room in person?" Leon smiled. "Leon, stop pretending. You are the one wh

    "Not just the head of this department?" "Then may I ask, do you have any other identity? Soko looked at Leon with a strange expression, with a hint of playfulness. Leon remained calm, sitting opposite Tiger with a faint smile on his face, and said, "I am the founder of the New Chamber of Commerce and the president of the New Chamber of Commerce, Leon himself!" As soon as the Words were spoken, Soko was shocked. Even Tiger couldn't help but be shocked, his face changing. But soon, the father and son shook their heads one after another, treating it as a joke. Soko couldn't help laughing, "Although you have the same name and surname as the young master, you are not the same person as him at all. You are just the cousin of Coco, whose background is just an ordinary family!" "I thought you were so confident because you had some ability, but l didn't expect to be so disappointed. And you even said such absurd things, it's simply shameless." Tiger also didn't believe it

    "Leon, I advise you to be sensible!" "Don't think that being in charge can make any difference." "This position was originally meant for me!" Soko stood by, speaking with great Confidence. As the eldest son of the Light family, Soko indeed had the confidence to speak like this. Especially since the Light family's position and influence in Kealonia Province was absolutely not to be underestimated, most of the family forces in the branch had some kind of attachment to the Light family! This was also why, after the establishment of the Kealonia branch, Tiger became the vice president in one fell swoop! In terms of relationships, influence, and strength, few in the Kealonia branch could match Tiger. If it were anyone else in this situation, they would surely choose to back down and not offend the Light family. But the situation was quite the opposite. The person standing in front of them was not an ordinary person, but the founder of the New Forest Chamber of Commerce! "Vice Pr
