Lost son?

Or illegitimate child?

Upon hearing this news, Leon was suddenly at a loss. In Leon's memory, he was raised solely by his mother Edith, and had never known who his father was. As for his father, Edith had always claimed that he passed away before Leon was born and that his surname was Arrison!

And now, all of a sudden, a father had appeared?

"Are you joking with me?" Leon swallowed hard.

"Young master, how could I dare to joke with you? You are the old master's last son!" The butler smiled apologetically, his words hinting at some special information.

"Last son, what do you mean?" Leon suddenly realized. "Cough, the old master had twin sons, but they have unfortunately passed away. Now the family needs a successor. The old master sent me from Panama to Cuba to search for you and your mother's whereabouts." The butler's smile gradually became awkward. Leon slapped his forehead, finally understanding.

He was almost infuriated and cherished, "So, only when all his sons are dead does he remember me? My mother has worked so hard for so many years, and now she's bedridden. Why didn't he come earlier? Tell that old scumbag that I, Arrison Leon, don't recognize him."

The butler saw the situation and quickly stopped Leon, pulling a serious face and persuading him, "Young master, please let me explain. There are reasons for all of this!"

"Well then, tell me the reasons!" Leon was furious and immediately retorted.

"This..." The butler immediately became hesitant. Leon rolled his eyes and was about to leave.

"Young master, please wait. The master knows that he owed you and your mother in the past, so not only will he allow you to return to your ancestral roots, but he also wants to make amends for it!" The butler was afraid of neglecting his duties and hurriedly took out a check and handed it to Leon. Leon saw the amount on the cheque. He was stunned on the spot!

One billion!

"The master knows that you and your mother are in great need of money now. Please accept this one billion check, young master!" The butler bowed again and presented it with both hands.

Leon took a deep breath and looked at the astronomical figure on it. His eyes couldn't help but heat up. In this realistic society, although money can't do everything, not having money can't do anything. But this sudden scene made Leon unable to believe it.

This is one billion. How many ordinary families can't even touch it in their lifetime, but it was easily handed to him? Then tell me, what kind of family is the Arrison family? For example... How much money does the Arrison family have?" Leon couldn't help but ask with curiosity, trying to maintain his composure.

The Arrison family has a rich heritage and is wealthy enough to rival a country the butler smiled.

"And what kind of person is my father?" Leon slightly narrowed his eyes and held his breath. Arrison Loic's name is known far and wide, and he has connections everywhere! The butler introduced.

At this moment, Leon's heart was moved. Just now, he thought that the so-called Arrison family was at best just a prominent family in Panama. As a result... It turned out to be so huge that it was wealthy enough to rival a country!

"What if I want to acquire this company?" Leon suppressed his restless heart and pointed to the sign of Diva Construction Company behind him." Piece of cake. Give me two days, and I will completely acquire this company and hand it over to the young master to manage!" The butler immediately patted his chest, took out a business card, along with a check, and handed them to Leon.

Leon looked at the business card, which had the contact number and name of the other party, Adas Lewis. "You have a good attitude, but don't think that I, Arrison Leon, can be easily bought. Because this is what he owes me!" Leon said without blushing or beating while putting the check and business card into his pocket.

"Yes, the young master is right. The old master indeed owes too much, and at the same time, the old master also knows that you and your mother will not forgive him easily." Mr. Lewis said seriously.

"The old master specifically instructed me to stay in Cuba recently, to satisfy all the young master's conditions, and to come to Cuba immediately after he finishes his work!"

"Okay, I have a phone call to make, and there are people around who are not convenient. I will contact you after you have completed the acquisition." Leon waved his hand to signal Mr. Lewis to leave.

Mr. Lewis did not hesitate and followed Leon's instructions, got into the car, and left. After the Rolls-Royce had gone far away, Leon reopened his phone, deleted all the edited messages, and unconsciously felt confident. He directly dialed Emerald's number.

The phone was quickly answered, and Emerald's anxious voice came through. "Leon, l just received the news and was about to call you. Why did my mother go crazy? Why did she kick you out of the company?"

"If she pushes me too hard, I will leave the company with you. Anyway, I still have savings, and I can help Auntie treat her illness. I am not worried about not being hired by any company," Leon said.

"I want to see what the company will become without me as the general manager!" Emerald said. Hearing this, Leon couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. It seemed that Emerald had always been thinking of him.

"Emerald, don't worry about it. I will solve this in my way because no one can force me out. If they do, I will make your mother and your uncle convinced," Leon said solemnly.

What are you talking about? Wait for me downstairs at the company. I will be there soon. Emerald was so anxious on the phone that she couldn't figure out where Leon's confidence came from. Without waiting for Leon to explain, she hung up the phone.

About ten minutes later, a graceful figure with a beautiful face and an anxious expression appeared in front of Leon. Emerald grabbed Leon's hand and looked like she was about to take him upstairs to confront someone.

Emerald, there's no need for this. I already told you on the phone that I have my way of dealing with this. There's no need to make things so ugly. Leon tried to persuade her.

"My mom and my uncle are targeting you. If I don't stand up for you, who will? And what can you do to solve this?" Emerald was so anxious that she stormed to her feet.

"it's simple. Give me two days, and the Diva Construction Company villa becomes my asset. In other words, once l acquire the entire company. Who else would dare to say anything? Just wait and see, Emerald!" Leon said confidently. Emerald was first stunned, but then her expression gradually changed.

"Leon, it's already so late. Why are you still here talking nonsense like this? Do you even know what it means to acquire a Diva Company?"

    Leon, how dare you come back?" "Emerald, are you planning to make a scene in the company because of this useless waste?" "Just now, the engagement between you and Adam's family in Cuba has been completely settled. Leon must leave!" In the chairman's office, Emily sat upright in her chair, looking particularly strong, and her tone was particularly domineering. Mr Lex held a carved walnut in his right hand, and his expression was full of disdain. He praised confidently, "Emerald, Adam's family in Cuba is a great opportunity for our company." "If Leon, this waste, messes it up, the loss will be considerable. As the heir of the company, you must make a decision!" Leon stood next to Emerald, looking extremely helpless Just downstairs now, no matter how he explained, Emerald didn't believe him at all. She forcibly dragged him back, as if she was going to stand up for him. Sure enough, before Leon could speak, Emerald tightened her face and said, "A great opportunity? In my opinion, it

    The Heir of the Arrison Family in Panama!At this moment, the air in the entire office seemed to freeze. It was impossible to imagine the vastness of the Arrison Family in Panama. Even the powerful Adam's Family in Cuba was just one of the servant families of the Arrison Family.If it weren't for the relationship with the Arrison Family, Adam's family would have no chance of sitting firmly in the position of the top family in Cuba.And the heir of the Arrison Family in Panama, even the eldest son of the Adam's Family, had to be respectful and serve tea and water when meeting him, let alone the master of the Adam's Family!Coincidentally, this heir's name was Leon!Could it be...At this point, Emily's heart was almost in chaos. However, she soon realized that it was unreasonable. She knew Leon's family background very well. How could he be involved in such a thing? You shameless brat!

    For Emerald, this day was destined to be anything but peaceful. Leon's one hundred million dollar cheque shocked the entire hospital. Emerald was stunned throughout the whole process, and was in a state of unprecedented numbness, witnessing everything as if in a dream! Even as the surgery began, Emerald was still in disbelief. It wasn't until the successful completion of the surgery, and Edith being pushed into the intensive care unit, that the hospital director personally arrived, and Emerald finally regained a hint of consciousness. However, before Emerald could even ask, the director, Alin Dean, who was wearing a white coat, immediately returned Leon's one hundred million dollar check without hesitation, bowing ninety degrees and once again shocking everyone. Mr. Dean respectfully said, "Young Master Leon, this is your check, please take it back!" Seeing this scene, Emerald was once again shocked. Mr. Dean was not only the director of Cuba Hospital but also a renowned fig

    "Emily Villa Area." Arrison Leon sat in the passenger seat of Emerald's car and drove straight onto the main road of the Villa area. Looking around, the scenery of the Emily Villa area was beautiful and elegant. Most of the people who live here are either rich or famous. Emerald's villa, which was bought by Emerald's father at a high price, was one of the best single-family villas in the village area, nestled by the mountains and water showing its grandeur! However, when the car stopped at the door of the villa, the moment Leon got out of the car, he was unusually calm. It seemed that after experiencing his mother's serious illness and surviving, compared with his previous temperament, there was a subtle transformation in his bones, as if even if there were more gold and silver in front of him, he would not be moved. "You dare to come here, you little brat!" Lex suddenly came out of the gate, with a posture of squatting for a long time, and his whole person was full of

    In an instant, both Emily and Lex were suffocating. The various actions of Leon before were linked together, and the two were even more shocked and incredulous. "Could it be that?" "Could it be that you are the heir of Panama in the Arrison family?" Lex was so shocked that he even forgot the pain in his chest. "This is impossible. How could you be the heir of the Panama Arrison family? This is such an incredible thing!" Emily's face turned pale as paper, and her throat trembled. The Panama Arrison family was the true first family of Echo, with a profound heritage that was unparalleled. Not only did they have the ability to rival a wealthy country, but they were also a behemoth of power and influence. And Leon, before this, was clearly from a poor background. How could he be involved in an inheritance relationship with such an existence? This so-called answer was simply unbelievable! "Wait!" Simpson suddenly raised his hand and interrupted the scene. "As a servant of th

    "Adam's Family Mansion!" Accompanied by Leon, they arrive at the Adam's Family Mansion, already at nightfall. The entire Adam's Family Mansion was built in a very grand style, with a retro-style layout, red walls, and blue tiles. The two stone lions in front of the gate were even more imposing, exuding the top-notch aura of the Cuba family! "Leon, don't say I didn't give you a chance. If you enter this door, it won't be so easy to get out. After all, if you provoke me, Simpson, you will have to pay the price." Simpson took the lead and stood at the position of the gate. Lex's face was full of sarcasm: "Yes, at this critical moment, Leon, you should admit it!" "Don't, Leon is not the kind of person who flees at the last minute. I remember he speaks with great confidence. Even if it's just bragging, he's much better than the average person," Emily said with a strange tone. Hearing these cold words, Emerald was so angry that she gritted her teeth and wanted to announce the trut

    Faced with this situation, Emily and Lex were filled with schadenfreude. Pretending to be from the Panama Arrison family would lead to a bad outcome. However, before the two could revel in their victory, the next scene left them dumbfounded Ada Lewis was particularly respectful, immediately bowing deeply with an expression of strong reverence: "Young Master, why didn't you tell me you were coming? You stood outside for so long." Emily and her brother were left stunned and stiff. Then, Adam's Erika's behavior was even more surprising. He immediately knelt with Simpson and performed the gesture of a servant, bowing and apologizing: "Young Master, I apologize for being late to greet you. Please forgive me!" at that moment, the air seemed to freeze. Emily stood still, her throat feeling as if it were blocked by a stone. Lex's eyes bulged in amazement. "Do you know why I came to Adam's family today and stood outside for so long without going in?" Leon stood with his hands behind hi

    That night, Leon returned to the hospital. Due to the stress of the surgery, he still couldn't enter the intensive care unit and could only stand outside watching over it. Seeing Edith lying in the hospital bed with various monitoring devices and a ventilator, like a vegetable, Leon couldn't help but feel heartbroken, especially when he thought of Edith and what had happened in between. He was even more indignant. If it weren't for Lewis's appearance, perhaps Leon would never have known about his background! Of course, Leon fully understood why Edith had hidden the truth for so many years! Because no one else would be able to bear taking care of their flesh and blood and then recognizing the irresponsible and heartless man from the past! But at the same time, it was also because of this that Leon could better understand the hardships Edith had gone through over the years, and that he was Edith's last reliance! So Leon had such a big change as if he had suddenly awakened overn

    Once she nodded in agreement and willingly became Leon's concubine, no matter from which perspective, the Haggard family would be admitting the difference in status between the two families, which would make the prestige of the family more deeply rooted and cause the Haggard's family to be subject to the Arrision family. However, if she reneged on the spot and announced the cancellation of the marriage, the future of the Haggard's family would inevitably be stagnant and difficult to make progress and ultimately would be left behind by the Arrision family. It had to be said that Leon's move was extremely ingenious and brilliant. Audrey was originally a proud daughter of heaven, but she had never encountered someone of the same age who had such means. What was even more unbelievable to Audrey was that even knowing Leon's methods, she could not think of a way to break the deadlock, which was simply unimaginable. As Audrey was dumbfounded, the steward Haley beside her was alread

    Facing Leon's attitude, Audrey was caught off guard. As the heir of the Haggard family, she was always respectful towards anyone in front of her. However, Leon was different! "Although the Arrision family is the first family in Narnia, if we look at the overall situation and foundation, the Haggard family is not inferior!" "As we have already agreed on the marriage, we should be aware of the pros and cons. We should be cautious in our Words and actions. If we cause the relationship between us to fall into a deadlock again, can you bear the responsibility?" "Perhaps you, Leon, are not to be offended in the eyes of others, but it is not the case for me, Audrey!" As Audrey spoke, her momentum suddenly changed, instantly suppressing the whole scene with her imposing manner. Haley covered his face and felt relieved. He thought that Miss was indeed a talented woman. In terms of tactics, Leon was not her match. Today, Leon, the young master, was bound to be humiliated. On the other side

    Adeline had great confidence in this marriage alliance. Once the marriage failed, Leon's position would not be guaranteed, and he might even be expelled from the Arrision family. At that time, no one could stop Avril from smoothly inheriting the family business. As expected, even the calm and composed Audrey couldn't help but be surprised when he learned about Emerald's existence and Leonard attitude. Haley, who was standing next to him, was even more furious and kept speaking out. "This marriage alliance is of great importance. As the young master, Leon is so impulsive!" "What a waste of my lady's efforts to come to Cuba. Is this what your Arrision family means by sincerity? Or is your Arrision family deliberately playing with people?" Adeline couldn't help feeling proud, but still pretended to be apologetic and said, "Please rest assured, Haggard family. As an elder, I have an unshrinkable responsibility in this matter. I will make Leon agree." Audrey frowned slightly a

    On that day, Leon received a call from Ada's Lewis. In the call, Ada's Lewis solemnly stated that the engagement between the two major families had been agreed upon, which would have a significant impact. Most importantly, Audrey would arrive in Cuba tonight to meet in the name of the family alliance. The old lady instructed that Leon must personally attend and not allow any mistakes to occur. In addition, the old lady also instructed Leon to settle things with Emerald as soon as possible. Leon had no response to this. Everything was within his expectations. The engagement between the two major families was a huge matter involving countless interests, and the old lady could not afford to make any mistakes. Unfortunately, Leon was not someone who would blindly follow orders and accept everything that was thrown at him. Time passed quickly, and it was now nighttime. The Cuba Grand Hotel appeared particularly solemn, with over a hundred bodyguards surrounding it, closely monito

    At the same time, Adeline was in Cuba and had been in the hospital due to her previous burn injuries. She had just learned about yesterday's incident. "What? Avril, are you sure you're not mistaken?" "That wild seed, Leon, actually...did that to Maurice." "I thought Leon would be suppressed by Maurice when he entered the Chamber of Commerce, but the opposite happened?" Adeline was stunned in the hospital bed, looking incredulous. Avril looked embarrassed and couldn't help but suggest giving up: "Mom, why don't we just forget about it? Leon is not someone who can be described by common sense. If we continue to develop this, we might end up in the same situation one day." Adeline slapped the bed and pointed to the burn on her body, cursing: "Look at what Adeline has done to me since l came to Cuba. How can l just give up and run back to Panama with my tail between my legs? How can I face myself in the future?" Avril's expression was filled with helplessness: "But we can't do any

    Faced with this situation, Amy was caught off guard. Emerald's fiance turned out to be the young master of the Arrision family! These relatives whom she looked down upon the most had risen to great heights. Most importantly, she had accused the young master of impersonating someone in front of him. Amy never dreamed that she would make such a big mistake, and even worse, she did it under the banner of the Charlton family of Oz, which resulted in her immediate disqualification from the vice president election. This consequence would undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the entire Charlton family of Oz. After hanging up the phone, Emily couldn't help but laugh out loud: " Amy, now it's your turn to be embarrassed. You think you're the wife of the Charlton family, and you're pretending to be high and mighty in front of us, looking down on people." Lux also felt a sense of satisfaction from head to toe for the first time, riding on the coattails of Leon's fame, and experiencing what it

    CHAPTER 37

    The Oz Adam's family was already quite strong. Especially in the Arrision's Chamber of Commerce, the status of the Oz Charlton family is second only to the Oz Abel family! Now that Maurice I has completely fallen, and the entire Abel family has been implicated, the Charlton family should take advantage of the trend! There is at least a 70% chance of winning this election, and the Charlton family is sure to win the position of vice president. Amy, as the wife of the Charlton family in Oz, naturally felt contemptuous of her relatives in Cuba, and she had gradually alienated them many years ago. If it wasn't for the young master's approval of the Adams family in Cuba at the chamber of commerce yesterday, Amy wouldn't want to come to Cuba to meet these low-level relatives at all! A mere William, in Amy's view, is worthless, and it's far from it. "You Adam's family in Cuba, don't think that being praised by the young master can make you defiant." "In the servant family, there is

    That night, Leon stayed overnight at the Chamber of Commerce. Due to the death of Maurice, the position of vice president was left vacant, which was indispensable for the Chamber of Commerce. For this reason, Ada's Lewis specially listed a list neatly placed in front of Leon. Leon sat in the office, picked up the list on the desk, and carefully examined it. On this list were all first-line families, second only to the Abel family in Oz, and had a significant reputation throughout Spring Province. Ada's Lewis asked softly, "Young Master, the position of the vice president is a major event for the Chamber of Commerce. We cannot be hasty. After seeing this list, what is your opinion?" Leon put down the list, crossed his arms, and leaned back in his chair, revealing a smile: "Most of the servant families on this list have comparable strengths. If I make a personal decision, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble or internal imbalances. Therefore, the best way is to transfo

    Silence, a deathly silence. Everyone present was trembling with fear. Especially the words spoken by Leon, each one struck at the heart. What should be done? Should the investigation into the accounts continue? These simple questions rendered Leon's tactics in full display, leaving no one with the courage to answer! And this silence, along with Leon's gaze, was even more terrifying. One minute, two minutes, three minutes. Time passed by, and the fear only grew stronger. It lasted for a full five minutes before Someone couldn't take it anymore and begged for mercy. "Young master, spare us!" "We beg of you, please don't continue the investigation!" "As long as you give us a chance, We will swear to serve you faithfully and fulfill our duties as your servants!" The scene was shocking, with the sound of begging for mercy ringing in everyone's ears. Ada's Lewis stood beside Leon, witnessing everything with a calm exterior, but his heart was already in turmoil, completely convinc
