Son-in-law of Fortune

CHAPTER 34

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 servant families below him were also implicated and benefited greatly. This is why, before Leon arrived, the servants all looked up to the Abel family in Oz with great respect.

Maurice knows better than anyone that the Arrision Family probably already knows about this, but out of respect for the old lady, they have turned a blind eye to it. He never expected that Leon would use his trump card as soon as he arrived.

What's more, after experiencing the previous incident, Maurice had no courage to stop Leon from auditing the accounts!

"What are you all standing around for? Do you have something to hide from me?" Leon's words were like thunder, piercing through their eardrums.

"Leon, I.." Maurice was sweating profusely, trembling more and more violently. Even with his hands on his cane, his body seemed to be on the verge of collapse. Leon decisively threw down a multiple-choice question:

"I just made it very clear. I'll only give you one chance. If you don't cooperate with the audit, I have the right to suspect that the accounts are incorrect. I think you should be aware of the consequences!" Maurice's face was full of bitterness.

He was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. Either way, he Would end up dead. At that moment, Maurice's heart was as cold as ashes, and he was even in a state of despair, but he could not resist and could only nod his head in agreement. Soon, Maurice took the lead, and the other servant families had no choice but to follow suit.

A large pile of account books was brought up to the table, and it would take at least a few days to finish counting. However, Leon faced such a large number of account books without any resistance. Instead, she was eager to start checking them one by one. As Leon sat in the main seat with a serious expression, the servants were even more uneasy.

The most unsettling thing was that during the hours-long process of checking the accounts, Leon didn't say a word. It was impossible to guess what she was thinking or whether she had discovered any problems!

Three hours, four hours, five hours...

She checked from morning until afternoon. Not to mention eating, Leon didn't even go to the bathroom once during the entire process!

Maurice was so desperate to pee that he couldn't take it anymore and gritted his teeth to ask, "Leon, can I go out for a moment?" "No, no one can leave until I finish checking. No matter what happens, hold it in until I'm done!" Leon said sternly while checking the accounts. After hearing this, everyone's spirits were almost crushed!

Maurice looked extremely aggrieved, tortured, and in pain. In just a few hours, the sky had gradually darkened. Finally, someone couldn't bear the pressure and fell to their knees with a thud. This was followed by a series of pleas for mercy, echoing throughout the surroundings.

"Young master, we were wrong!"

"Please, young master, give us another chance. We promise we won't do it again." "These accounts do have problems. We admit that we have made a lot of profit from the guild over the years, but it was all led by Aspan. It's not entirely Our fault."

"That's right, it was all led by Aspan. If we didn't cooperate with him, we wouldn't have had a good life." Seeing this scene, Maurice was So angry that he almost fainted. He cursed wildly in his heart. Just when everyone thought that Leon would be furious, he strangely discovered that even though many servants had already confessed, Leon remained unmoved and continued to check the accounts on his own.

At this moment, no one could maintain their composure. Because Leon's silence was the most terrifying!!

Maurice was completely intimidated. He didn't care about anything else and followed the servants, kneeling down and tremblingly saying, "Leon, as your uncle, I am kneeling before you. I admit to these accounts, but you should also consider family ties and not be too harsh, right?"

"Leon, I will never trouble you again in the future. Whatever you say, I will do it." "As for your grandmother, I.. will help you!" However, Leon completely ignored Maurice's pleas, no matter how much he begged.

In an instant, Maurice's mood plunged into endless fear, and he knelt on the ground and dared not get up. Maurice never dreamed that the young master Leon's methods would be so powerful. Before Caleb took over, Leon was not so dominant!

It was only at this moment that Maurice realized why Adeline had repeatedly suffered setbacks in Cuba! In front of someone like Leon, not being defeated was strange! Adeline was still alive, which was simply a miracle. Just then, Leon suddenly frowned, showing a hint of surprise.

This frown immediately caught the attention of many people. Leon slowly raised his head and looked towards the position of Godfrey, then smiled and praised, "I have just finished calculating the accounts of the Cuba Adams family, and the figures are completely accurate without any deviation. I am very impressed." Godfrey looked proud and relaxed, and quickly bowed, "The Cuba Adams family has benefited from the Arrision family and will do our best to ensure that there is not even a penny of error." Leon smiled and said, "Keep up the good work, and I will make the Cuba Adams family bigger and bigger."

"Thank you, young master!" Godfrey was overjoyed and couldn't help but sigh at the strength of the young master's methods! With Leon's praise for the Cuba Adams family, the atmosphere around them did not change, but became even heavier.

Leon calmly closed the account book, crossed his hands leaned back on the main seat, and asked, "What do you think I should do with you? Should I continue to investigate the accounts?" As soon as the words were spoken, the servants were filled with terror and the silence was deafening.
