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 transform conflicts into competitiveness." Ada's Lewis looked surprised and asked,

"What do you mean?" Leon smiled calmly, "It's simple. The position of the vice president will be determined by a selection process for three days. It will be fair and just. All servant families in the Chamber of Commerce will hold one vote each. The one with the most votes wins."

"During the selection process, no means of coercion can be used. It must be based on sincerity and voluntary participation. The Chamber of Commerce will supervise each other. If there are any violations, the qualification for selection will be directly deprived!" Upon hearing this, Ada's Lewis eyes lit up.

With the death of Maurice, the position of the vice president was undoubtedly coveted. Leon's method not only ensured a smooth selection but also restrained the Chamber of Commerce's disputes under mutual supervision, transforming conflicts into benign competition, which was a clever strategy.

Ada's Lewis couldn't help but exclaim, "The young master's plan is truly amazing especially the joint supervision!" "I'll leave this matter to you to handle. I'll come back to Oz after the election results are out tomorrow morning!" Leon gestured.

"Understood!" Ada's Lewis replied solemnly. The next day. Early in the morning, Leon took a car back to Cuba. By the time he arrived in Cuba, it was almost noon.

Coincidentally, he passed by Diva Construction Company, so he parked downstairs and took the elevator up alone. After many days, the changes in Diva Company were considerable.

Not only did they recruit a large number of employees, but also due to the Spring Resort project, everyone was especially busy. Leon smirked and walked to the chairman's office with ease. Before he could knock on the door, he heard strange noises coming from inside. "Emily, you're really lucky this time to have such a Son-in-law."

"If it weren't for this son-in-law, your company wouldn't have gotten the Spring Resort project!"

"Of course, I'm not jealous of you sitting here. After all, Compared to me, you still have a long way to go!" Leon raised his eyebrows in confusion and pushed the door open directly.

Sure enough, the moment he entered, he saw a middle-aged noblewoman sitting on a wide sofa, looking extremely proud.

Emerald couldn't help but be surprised, "Why did you suddenly Come?" Before Leon could speak, the middle-aged noblewoman stood up and looked him up and down with a condescending attitude, saying, "You are William from the Cuba Adam's Family, right?" Leon was taken aback and felt embarrassed.

"Who is this?" he asked.

Emily quickly introduced, "This is Evita's aunt, Amy." Leon suddenly understood that Amy was the sister of Evita's deceased father.

As far as Leon knew, Amy had married into a very wealthy family in Oz City when she was young.

However, after Evita's father passed away, the two families rarely Contacted each other, and their relationship became distant. Leon's understanding of the situation was limited. "You, the Adam's family of Cuba, have gained the appreciation of the young master at the Chamber of Commerce. It's really surprising," said Amy, with an attitude full of arrogance. "I'm sure you've already received the news that this time's vice president election is based on a completely democratic voting system. So I came here to ask your family to Vote for us!"

"Wait a minute, Auntie, you've got it all wrong!" Evita was getting anxious.

"Yes, you've got it completely wrong. The person standing in front of you is.." Lex was also getting anxious. At this critical moment, Leon suddenly raised his hand, interrupted Lex's words, and took a few steps forward, smiling.

"May I know which family you are representing and campaigning for, Auntie?" "The Abel family of Oz!" Amy said with a strong and confident tone, full of a sense of pride. Leon nodded. "I've heard of the Abel family of Oz. But isn't it a rule of the Chamber of Commerce that voting is based on sincerity and voluntary participation?"

Amy confidently praised, "It is true that the rules have been set for voting and election, but the strength of our Oz Abel family is well known to you. We are the hot favorite for this election. Although your Adam's family in Cuba has gained the appreciation of the young master, your foundation is still insufficient. If you want to climb higher, there is no better choice than to use the vote to attach yourselves to our Oz Abel family." Leon narrowed his eyes. How could he not understand what Amy meant?

In the circle of servant families, there are also levels of hierarchy and status, just like in any other social group. If Adam's family in Cuba doesn't vote with us, who knows how they'll be punished after the election? They'll have to pay the price eventually.

"I'm sorry, even though the Abel family of Oz is undoubtedly powerful, this time around, the Adam family of Cuba has a better choice," Leon refused immediately.

Amy glared at him, "l came from afar, early in the morning from Oz, and you, Adam's family of Cuba, have no shame!"

"Putting aside the voting issue, I am at least Evita's fiance. As your elder brother's fiance, you should not say such things, right? After all, we are all relatives, and we will still have to exchange gifts during holidays," Leon shrugged.

Amy sneered, "Don't flatter yourself. We are not on the same level. If it weren't for the voting, I wouldn't even bother coming here and embarrassing myself." Emily was so angry that she gritted her teeth, "Amy, you are going too far. We didn't invite you here!" Lex was also furious and blurted out, "Who do you think you're talking to? Even if his father, Godfrey, were here, he would still have to bow to me. Who is he?"

"He's just a mere William. Even if his father, Godfrey were here, he Would still have to bow to me. Who is he?" Amy said arrogantly.

    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

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

    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

    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.

    Arrison Leon, you have a lot of nerve to have designs on my daughter?!" A middle-aged woman with a strong demeanor and a half-old appearance sat in the chairman's office of Diva Construction Company berating a young man in front of her with anger and disgust on her face. Although it was lunchtime, there were still many employees inside the company who couldn't help but look over when they heard the commotion, filled with schadenfreude. "You're just an ordinary employee of my company. What ability do you have to be with my daughter?" The woman continued to scold, "You dare to think about her?!" "Chairman, please give me a chance to prove myself," Arrison Leon looked embarrassed, his nails sinking into his palms. "Who do you think you are, Leon? What can you prove? You're just a frog in a well who wants to eat swan meat. I give you until the end of today to leave the company!" Emily slammed the table and stood up, throwing a dismissal letter directly at Leon.

    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.
