Son-in-law of Fortune

CHAPTER 43

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 already stunned, stiff all over, and no longer dared to underestimate Leon.

Leon calmly reached out and slowly took back the marriage certificate on the table. "I have already said it before. As for whether you agree or not, that is your own business. I, Leon, have never forced anyone, so you better think carefully." Hearing this, Audrey felt an unprecedented humiliation. Haley's face turned pale. "Miss, shall we leave first?"

"Leon, you surprised me, but don't think that this matter will end so quickly," Audrey gritted his teeth and stood up, full of anger as he turned and left. After Audrey left, Godfrey couldn't help but bow deeply in front of Leon, showing great respect.

"Young Master is wise!"

"With this move, Audrey will surely be in a dilemma!" "This old servant truly admires you from the bottom of my heart!" The figures around them saw this scene and quickly echoed.

Especially Freya, who deliberately looked at Adeline and shouted, "Some people have ulterior motives, trying to disrupt the situation and deliberately cause trouble for the young master. Little do they know that the young master's strategy is not something that a clown can easily figure out!"

Adeline's face turned black upon hearing this and couldn't help but become angry. She slammed the table and cursed, "Leon, you better not be too proud. Just like what Audrey said, the matter is not over yet. I don't believe that your grandmother will let you do this!" Freya timely inserted, "Madam, I can't help but interject at this point.

The young master's actions, this time, are deliberately emphasizing the superiority of the Arrision family over the Haggard family. Moreover, if the Haggard family agrees, it will be of great benefit to the Harrison family. How could the old lady blame the young master? In my opinion, she should praise the young master. l advise you not to deceive yourself anymore!" Freya's expression was full of joy.

"That's right. From the beginning until now, everything the young master has done is for the sake of the Arrision family. Especially in front of the Haggard's family, he wants to make it clear who is strong and who is weak. It's not as simple as thinking that they can take advantage of the marriage alliance. Even if the engagement is ultimately canceled, no one can deny the young master's actions!" At this moment, Avril, who had witnessed the whole process, hoped to be completely extinguished.

She couldn't help but retreat in her heart and her face was pale as she pulled Adeline and whispered, "Mom, why don't we just..."

"You shut up!"

Adeline suddenly became angry. "Mom, let's forget it. It's useless," Avril's face was as white as paper. Do you want me to give up in front of so many people? What a joke! You are such a spineless person!" Adeline was so angry that her forehead was full of blue veins. Leon smiled with interest, "Mother and daughter are already in disagreement so soon?"

"Leon, it was our fault before. Please let's turn over a new leaf since we are all family. I, Avril, promise not to Compete with you for the inheritance." Avril looked extremely panicked.

"You have to have the ability to do so!" Leon said coldly. Adeline's mouth twitched, feeling humiliated. She raised her hand in anger and slapped Adeline hard, "Shut up, Avril! Do you have no shame? Begging Leon for mercy!" This slap sent Avril's falling to the ground, making the scene look very comical.

Avril didn't care about anything else and immediately grabbed onto Leon's pants, kneeling in front of him and pleading, "Leon, I was foolish, but I won't do it again. If I give up, my mother will be useless no matter what. Please give me one more chance." "When you were in the Chamber of Commerce, didn't you give those servants a chance?" Leon sneered.

"You are my half-sister. How can you compare yourself to servants? How can I, as your elder brother, not give you a chance? I suggest that as long as you sever ties with Adeline and fully support me within the Arrision family, I will not hold it against you. How about it?"

Severe ties!

Adeline widened her eyes, "How dare you?" "Mom, please don't persist in your wrongdoings. Do you not understand that things have developed to this point? Do you have to stubbornly hold on and continue like this? Do you know that your actions will eventually harm people?" Avril trembled as she spoke.

Adeline was so angry that she almost bit her tongue. She cursed, "You bastard, I raised you for nothing. If you dare to listen to Leon, I will disown you!"

"l don't want to continue like this anymore because | don't want to be a sacrificial lamb. I don't want to die without even knowing how I died. Since you insist on being indifferent, I have no choice but to sever ties with you according to Leon's words," Avril said with a trembling voice.

"You!" Adeline's nails dug into her palms, feeling both angry and humiliated. Leon raised his hand and interrupted the argument between the mother and daughter.

He smiled and said, "Alright, alright. How could I possibly let you two break apart? That would be too cruel. I was just joking around. Seeing you two like this is hilarious. In my opinion, you should just stay together."

"Joking? You..." Avril was stunned and humiliated. "You disgraceful thing, come with me right now!" Adeline stepped forward and twisted Avril's ear, dragging her away in anger. Godfrey shuddered and bowed again, praising,

"Young master, that was a brilliant move to create a rift between the mother and daughter. But if you push Adeline too far, what will | happen?" "I'm waiting for her to jump the wall in desperation!" Leon's eyes flashed with lightning.
