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 today. You dared to impersonate the young master of the Arrision family just to show off in front of me. Do you have any idea what kind of Consequences you'll face for offending the Arrision's family?" The other students present saw the situation and couldn't help but think that Sophia's words made sense.

As university classmates, they knew each other's backgrounds very well, and Leon's was no exception.

Although most of them didn't know much about the Arrision family in Cuba, they could tell from the introduction that it was a truly powerful and influential family. It was impossible for such a family to have any connection with Leon, let alone a so-called young master.

However, before Sophia could continue with her scathing insults, a middle-aged man in a suit suddenly strode in. It was none other than the top executive of the Spring Gold Resort, Savage Leif!

Savage's arrival immediately caused everyone in the room to become tense and uneasy. Sophia's heart leaped with joy as she quickly stepped forward. "Mr. Savage, you've arrived just in time!" Lathan assumed a posture as if he were about to beat a drowning dog, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Someone is impersonating the Arrision's family of Leif and swindling people here in Spring Gold Resort!" Savage furrowed his brows and stared at the two of them with a strange expression.

Then, in front of everyone, he walked straight to Leon's side and said solemnly, "What nonsense are you talking about? The person sitting in front of you is the real young master of the Arrision family!" The entire villa trembled as if there had been an earthquake.

All the students present were frightened and stood up, their faces turning pale. Lathan's eyes bulged out like lightning, and his scalp exploded. Sophia's expression was priceless as she stammered, "Young master?" "Sophia, I can't help you this time. You've offended the young master!'" Savage Leif's expression was stern and serious.

Thud!

Sophia's legs went weak, and she collapsed on the ground. It was important to note that the construction project was of utmost importance to the Zion Group. If anything went wrong, it would be a severe blow to the company, even potentially catastrophic.

Offending the young master of the Arrision family was not a good idea. To put it bluntly, with just a word from the Arrision family's young master, the Zion Corporation could go bankrupt in minutes, even to the point of ruin!

And Sophia would become the Scapegoat for the entire Zion Corporation!

In that moment, fear overwhelmed Sophia, She was completely suffocated and couldn't say a word. Lathan's face was extremely embarrassed and he was trembling with fear. He even knelt in front of everyone.

Lathan trembled as he spoke, "Leon, I didn't know your identity beforehand. I didn't mean it. Please don't hold it against me for the sake of our classmates. Please let me go like a fart."

"You didn't know my identity beforehand, so you could act recklessly? And you're talking about the sake of our classmates? I wonder how many people here actually consider me, Leon, a classmate. It's ridiculous," Leon shook her head coldly.

Lathan immediately began to shift the blame and begged for mercy, "Young Master Leon, I won't do it again. Please spare me. I'm just Sophia's assistant and I have to go along with her. She's the real culprit. If you want to settle the score, go find her!"

"You, Lathan!" Sophia was almost furious. Lathan turned on her in an instant, slapping her twice and scolding her, "Sophia, this is all your fault. If it weren't for you showing off and humiliating people in front of our classmates, things wouldn't have turned out like this."

"It's all because you have no eyes. I'm the one who's been implicated by you. Now, I'm representing Young Master Leon and giving you two slaps in return." These two slaps left Sophia stunned. The entire audience of students was also dumbfounded by this dog-eat-dog scene. Sophia regained her composure and couldn't help but be angry,

"Lathan, you bastard, you're fired!"

"If I'm fired, I'm fired. The Zion Corporation is probably going to be finished this time. There's no point in me staying. As long as Young Master Leon can forgive my mistake, what does it matter if I'm fired?" Lathan turned around and began to flatter, truly a turncoat.

Leon cast a cold glance at Lathan and immediately waved his hand, "l don't want to see this person again." Lathan was so scared that he begged, "Leon, Maxwell, we are classmates."

"Come in!" Savage Leif didn't hesitate and immediately signaled for someone to come in and drag the crying and screaming Lathan out. A moment later, there was a sound like a pig being slaughtered, and then silence.

At this moment, Sophia finally staggered to her feet, trembling all over, with cold sweat on her forehead and back. Leon finished the red wine in his cup, then got up from his chair and looked meaningfully at Sophia for ten seconds. His silence was so intimidating that it left her feeling fearful.

He didn't say a word and just turned and left. Watching Leon walk out the door and head towards the most prestigious villa, Sophia's mood fell into an endless abyss of regret. Even at this moment, Sophia still couldn't believe that Leon and Maxwell were the same person!

What was most unacceptable to Sophia was her identity as his ex-girlfriend. If she had discovered this earlier and taken advantage of the opportunity, the Zion Group would have already achieved great success!

It was finally at this moment that Sophia realized that the engagement between Emerald and Freya was impossible. How could Adam's family, a servant family, have the courage to defy their masters' wishes? Sophia grabbed Savage Leif's hand and burst into tears.

"Mr. Savage, you have to help me!"

"If my dad finds out, he'll kill me!"

    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

    Meanwhile, at the Arrision Family Chamber of Commerce. Before Leon's arrival, many servants had already gathered. Arrision Family Chamber of Commerce had been established for many years and held immense commercial resources and power. The servants all benefited from the Arrision Family Chamber of Commerce and were prominent figures in society. Among them, the leading family was the Avalon Abel Family. As the maternal family of the old lady, the Avalon Abel Family held a unique position in the Chamber of Commerce. The head of the Abel Family even held the position of vice president, possessing great authority. Before Leon's arrival, the position of president had been vacant for years, and the Abel Family head had controlled the Chamber of Commerce, allocating project resources and assigning them to servant families one by one, further elevating the status of the Abel Family head. However, now that Leon had arrived and directly assumed the position of president, it was undou

    For a moment, the entire Chamber of Commerce was shocked. It was well-known that Maurice held an unparalleled position in the business World. The Abel family's power in the entire Spring Province was unrivaled and unshakeable. Moreover, Maurice was a towering figure in the business world of the province, with countless dignitaries and officials seeking his favor in private. Everyone had expected that Leon Would be more restrained when he arrived at the Chamber of Commerce. However, to their surprise, he spoke out boldly and acted so aggressively upon their first meeting. This scene was truly unexpected. Standing in the corner of the crowd, Godfrey couldn't help but feel nervous and sweaty in his palms. He thought that Leon's behavior was a bit too radical. Even if he had to do something, he shouldn't have spoken so bluntly and completely ruined their relationship. Otherwise, it would be extremely detrimental to his future position in the Chamber of Commerce. Godfrey mutte

    As Maurice fell to the ground, Leon turned around and sat in the main seat, facing everyone. The entire chamber was silent, and the servants were frightened and panicked. Maurice was in pain and twisted his facial features, leaning on his crutch and trying to stand up, but couldn't help becoming angry before he could speak. However, before Maurice could start cursing, Leon sat in the main seat and raised his hand to point to Godfrey, who was in the corner, saying, "I don't want to do everything myself, so from now on, I'll let you, Godfrey, take over for me." Godfrey's body tightened, and he was instantly suffocated. Leon waved his hand and said, "This is an order!" Godfrey's scalp went numb, and he didn't dare to disobey in the slightest, quickly moving forward. Maurice was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, "Leon, what do you mean by this?" Leon's expression was stern as he gestured, "I've already made myself clear. I don't mind taking drastic measures. Today, I, Leo

It could affect your life and death at any moment, and yet you just give a casual response? l came all the way here just to tell you!" Audrey was almost infuriated.Leon slowly stood up from the bed and calmly said, "Even if Leo is alive, what can he do? I don't care whether he's alive or dead.""I'm curious though, you could have chosen the more advantageous side with Leo, so why did you come to tell me? Could it be..." Audrey was filled with anger and retorted, "Nonsense! I just want to win you fairly and squarely, I don't want to win in such a dishonorable way.

    Afterwards, Leon returned to the president's office. Godfrey followed him in and closed the door behind him. "Adeline and her daughter personally came to issue a challenge!""Young Master, could this be true?" Godfrey's face showed disbelief and his heart was in turmoil. As one of the insiders, he could definitely understand the intentions behind Adeline and her daughter's words and actions when they came to the door. Freya waved his hand. "Dad, the Young Master has already handled it properly. You don't need to worry too much.""How can I not worry? This is a huge matter!" Godfrey was extremely anxious. Leon raised his eyes and looked at Godfrey's expression. He couldn't help but smile slightly, then nodded at Freya as a signal. Godfrey understood and explained the whole story to Godfrey. After hearing it, Godfrey was shocked and his expression changed dramatically. Finally, he almost worshipped Leon, excitedly laughing and bowing to him. "Young Master is brilliant, this is simply

The situation that he thought was extremely embarrassing had suddenly changed dramatically in the blink of an eye. It was unbelievable! Especially when he thought of Leo's face, Freya couldn't help but feel a great sense of satisfaction. Leo thought he was clever and could kill with his words, but he was actually just tying himself up with his own words. In front of the young master, he was nothing but a paper tiger that could be easily defeated. In the end, it was Leo himself who was killed by his own words! Among all this, what impressed Freya the most was Leon's thunderous actions from beginning to end. His iron-blooded and domineering spirit was overwhelming and awe-inspiring! After this encounter, the young master's name was truly unparalleled! Without hesitation, Freya straightened his body and spoke with the utmost respect, "Young Master, I w

"You think you have the upper hand, but you don't realize that you're actually walking into a trap!" Leon burst into laughter, analyzing the situation in just a few sentences. Freya stood beside him, suddenly realizing the truth. Leo was indeed the biggest threat, and once he went to Panama to reveal his identity, Leon would have no chance of turning the tables andwould be in an irreversible situation.But Leo was too arrogant!He thought he could stand behind the scenes and wait until the situation was ripe before making his move, but he didn't realize that he was actually inviting disaster upon himself. Leon would never let Leo leave Cuba alive, let alone the hotel! To put it bluntly, Leo was already a dead man walking, and even if he died again, what difference would it make?

    "Leon, please have a seat!" With a smile on his face, Linton gestured for Leon to sit down as they entered the presidential suite. Leon took a quick glance around the room before sitting down and couldn't help but take a few more looks at Linton. It had to be said that Linton's mature appearance was still sharp and distinct, even with wrinkles creeping up in middle age, he couldn't conceal the youthful charm he had in his prime. "As a representative of the Arrision family overseas, why did Representative Linton come to this small place in Cuba without even a greeting, and stayed here for several days?" Leon got straight to the point without any hesitation. Freya stood aside and didn't interrupt, as if turning into Leon's ears and eyes, carefully observing Linton's every move and expression. Linton remained calm and composed, making tea while smiling gently, "Although Cuba is a small place, hasn't it also produced someone like Leon?" "The reason why I came here

    The Chamber of Commerce was flourishing. After a series of changes, project adjustments, and resource integration, the major servant families had basically completed their transfer. As for the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, it was still fully taken on by Godfrey. Leon sat in his brand new office, constantly reviewing the project files on his desk, checking and stamping them, and he was completely engrossed in his Work. At this moment, Godfrey and his son knocked on the door and walked in slowly. "Young Master!" Leon put down his pen and couldn't help but smile at Godfrey, praising him, "Godfrey, thanks to your efforts in the transfer from the Arrision Family Chamber of Commerce to the Chamber of Commerce, we wouldn't have achieved this level so quickly." "This is what the old servant should do. After all, I am the vice president and | cannot embarrass you. Besides, I haven't had a chance to thank you for promoting my son." Godfrey was overjoyed and

    In the blink of an eye, five days had passed. Under the full efforts of Freya and the strong call of the Zion family group, the New Business Association was officially established in the name of Leon. On the day of its establishment, various local families in Cuba flocked to join the association and were willing to serve it. In addition, the servant families of the Business Association also began to move collectively and bring all their resources to the New Business Association, and this momentum continued to grow. What was even more unbelievable was that after the establishment of the New Business Association, the people involved in Lior's relationships not only did not obstruct the progress of the New Business Association as expected, but instead the wind direction changed drastically and all of them cooperated without daring to make trouble. Moreover, they even personally sent gifts to the New Business Association. For a time, the New Business Association's momentum

    In the name of a concubine, I will stand in for my husband. With these words, Leon had nothing to say. Faced with such remarks, Audrey was completely stunned. "Leon, you are simply arrogant. If I, Haley, don't teach you a lesson today, how can Miss Leo's face be preserved?" Haley was furious and could no longer restrain his emotions. He raised his hand and slapped Leon. Leon easily caught Haley's wrist, exerted force with his foot, and calmly threw Haley to the ground. Then, Leon said lightly, "I told you before, leave Cuba early, don't wander in front of me, and don't bring shame upon yourself. You have only yourself to blame." "You damn thing, if it weren't for the lack of heirs in the Arrision family, how could a wild seed like you have a chance?" Haley quickly got up, rolled up his sleeves, and made a gesture to continue the fight. Hearing the term "wild seed," Leon's killing intent flashed.

    After dealing with the matters at Spring Resort, Leon handed over the task of mobilizing the people to the Zion Group, and personally went to the Adam's family in Cuba. The Adam's family was as peaceful as usual. Upon learning of Leon's arrival, Freya immediately put aside everything else and hobbled out with his crutches to greet him. He respectfully led Leon to the main hall and served him tea and water. Leon did not rush to drink the tea, but instead focused his gaze on Freya and asked, "How is your leg injury recovering?" "Thank you for your concern, young master. Freya's leg injury has recovered a lot. In a little while, I won't need crutches anymore. However, it may bea bit inconvenient for me to move around in the future, but it won't affect anything," Freya replied, bowing his head and not daring to look directly at Leon. Leon sighed and said, "Regarding the incident before, you didn't know my identity beforehand, and it was only out of the family's positio
