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, Leon, must set an example. Ada's Lewis, bring your gun!" Ada's Lewis composed himself and held his breath. On the way here, he had repeatedly reminded Leon to be cautious, but he had never imagined that things would develop to this point.

Most importantly, even though things had come to this, Leon still had complete control over the situation and was not at a disadvantage. To put it bluntly, if Maurice were to die here today, it would be justified!

Thinking of this, Ada's Lewis couldn't help but be shocked and secretly praised the young master for his decisive actions. He had been too cautious and afraid of the Consequences.

So, Ada's Lewis eased his expression and took out his gun, which he carried with him, and respectfully handed it to Leon.

Leon took the gun and weighed it in his hand before throwing it in front of Godfrey's feet, saying, "You can take action now." Godfrey, with a pale face, had to follow the instructions, picked up the gun from the ground, loaded it, and tremblingly aimed it at Maurice's forehead.

Although he felt a sense of pleasure, he also felt uneasy. Before Leon arrived, Maurice was a highly respected figure. But now, where was his previous arrogance? Maurice's hair stood on end, and he was suddenly frightened and stuttered, "You, you, you..."

"Aspen, I am just following the young master's orders," Godfrey's heart was pounding. He knew that if he fired this shot, the relationship between Adam's family in Cuba and the young master would be closely linked.

In addition, he could completely make up for his previous mistakes. This was indeed an opportunity given by Leon!

Because Leon, although he was the young master, was ultimately alone in his power. So what Leon had to do was not just to establish his authority, but to use every opportunity to build his power!

Facing the threat of the gun, Maurice finally couldn't resist the collapse of his heart. He dropped his crutch to the ground, sat down with a thump, and said, "Leon, don't do this. I was wrong this time. Give me a chance!" Leon narrowed his eyes and said nothing.

Godfrey took a few steps forward and aimed the gun at Maurice again, his eyes gradually changing.

Maurice was terrified and almost collapsed, shouting, "I don't want to die, I don't want to die. Leon, I beg you. I promise that I will never do this again. I promise that you will have full control of the entire business association from now on."

Under such circumstances, all the servants around were already frightened. Who would have thought that Maurice, such a prominent figure, would also beg for mercy at gunpoint?

And who would have thought that Leon was so powerful that he dared to kill anyone? This strong authority had already invisibly surged into people's hearts, causing extreme fear.

Just then, Leon slowly raised his hand, interrupting Godfrey's actions, and said with a smile, "I can give you a chance. If you serve me tea and apologize in front of everyone, I can give you a chance. How about it?" This statement shocked the audience once again.

After all, Leon was inferior to Maurice in seniority from beginning to end. Even if he didn't serve tea to Maurice, he couldn't let Maurice serve tea to him and apologize! However, Leon did it and directly retaliated.

Maurice pointed to his face with his backhand, "You want me to serve you tea?" "If you're not willing, then don't expect to get any chances from me. Don't even think that you can order me around just because of your seniority. I, Leon, don't care who you are when I do things!" Leon's words were powerful and unstoppable. Maurice swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Even though he was extremely aggrieved, he had to prioritize his life.

He didn't care about losing face and quickly got up tremblingly, pouring a cup of hot tea and bringing it to Leon's front with both hands. Only then did Leon show a satisfied smile, taking a sip of the tea from Maurice's cup.

Seeing this scene, Maurice couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that as long as he was still alive, he would have plenty of opportunities to teach Leon a lesson in the future.

Leon smiled and said, "If you had done this earlier, it wouldn't have turned out like this." "It was my fault just now. I didn't follow the rules of the Chamber of Commerce," Maurice cursed Leon in his heart hundreds of times. Leon spoke solemnly, "I've given you a chance, but remember, I only give one chance, never a second one!" Maurice gritted his teeth and nodded, "Yes, I promise there won't be a next time." Leon scanned the room and slowly stood up from his seat.

Just when everyone thought Leon was going to leave the Chamber of Commerce and they could relax, his next words shocked them once again. "Just now was just a small incident.

Now, I'm going to start doing real business. Immediately hand over the Chamber of Commerce accounts to me. All servant families must check the accounts, including the Abel family in Oz."

"If there's anything wrong with the accounts, or if anyone has embezzled the Chamber of Commerce's profits, they will be immediately expelled from the Chamber of Commerce and removed from the servant community and will bear all consequences. Those who are seriously guilty will be executed on the spot!"

"Until I have checked the accounts, no one is allowed to leave!" In an instant, many servant families trembled and their faces changed dramatically. Especially Maurice, who had just calmed down, was now trembling with fear, cursing that something big was going to happen. Godfrey stood still, looking at Leon on the main seat, realizing that his previous worries were unnecessary.

The young master's methods were impeccable. Ada's Lewis came back to his senses and realized that Leon was not just being strong, but had already been planning step by step. "All of you, follow the young master's orders!"

    The Arrision Family Trading Company has numerous projects, and all of the servant families present are involved in them. Without the commercial projects allocated by the company, these servant families would not have their current wealth and status. However, due to the long-standing vacancy of the chairman position, the company's financial accounts have been fully controlled by Maurice, who reports directly to the Arrision Family in Panama. Whether there are any discrepancies in the accounts can only be verified by personal investigation. Therefore, when Leon demanded an audit, the group of servants around him all had their faces turn pale with fear. Maurice was scared out of his wits, having just escaped one crisis, only to be hit head-on by another! As the vice president of the company, Maurice has taken advantage of his position for personal gain over the years. Almost every year, the accounts he reported to the Arrision Family were fabricated. The vast majority of the

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    "Leon, are you crazy? Do you know how big of an impact this will have? 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. Don't try to flatter yourself, I don't like you.""l didn't say it was about that. You're so eager to answer, are you trying to cover up something?" Leon narrowed his eyes."I'm talking to you about seriousmatters, why are you bringing up thesethings? Can't you take it seriously? Aslong as Leo is alive, he will alwaysbe pressing down on you!"

    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

    They walked out of the hotel's gate. Freya felt like he had just woken up from a dream and was refreshed from head to toe. 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

    "Leo, I really have to thank you even in my dreams!" "Because if it were me, l would definitely not come to Cuba, but head straight to Panama!" "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? Thinking of this, Freya suddenly realized why Leo

    "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

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
