Under Audrey's stunning beauty, Emerald couldn't believe that Leon would speak up for her like that. His unwavering determination seemed unshakable!

Emerald was moved beyond words. "Leon, you're going too far," Audrey was greatly provoked, especially by Leon's earlier statement that she would always be a concubine, which was a huge shame. "I don't think I'm going too far. As you said earlier, this is a transaction from beginning to end, and I'm just following the rules of the transaction," Leon said, shocking everyone again.

Emerald had never dreamed that Audrey Would be such a perfect woman. In comparison, she couldn't help but feel that she was too ordinary and couldn't help but feel inferior.

However, just as Emerald was feeling insecure, Leon's strong hand suddenly wrapped around her waist, and he solemnly introduced her. "Allow me to introduce my wife, Emerald!" Audrey looked her over and was even more discouraged. Her nails sank into her palms as she muttered, "So she's Emerald..."

Haley couldn't stand it and gritted his teeth, pretending to be grandiose. "She doesn't look like much, does she? Compared to my young miss, she's like things? After all, emotions are elusive, and no one can predict the outcome. I'm just stating it in advance," Leon said calmly.

Audrey finally became angry and ashamed, and angrily cursed, "Leon, don't play this game in front of me.

Even if I die, I'll never fall in love with someone as arrogant and conceited as you!" Leon smiled even more meaningfully, "I thought the heir of the Haggard's family Could remain calm no matter what happened, but in the end, you couldn't help but lose your temper in front of me."

"You!" Audrey was so angry that she trembled our wives and took another. Therefore, a wife is a wife, and a mistress is always a mistress!" Leon's tone seemed calm, but the light in his eyes was particularly firm. Emerald looked up and moved to tears, her eyes red.

Audrey's heart sank, and his palms were almost crushed. He even suddenly felt an indescribable jealousy! "But Miss, it seems like we...have no way out." Haley suppressed his emotions and slightly bent over, indicating that he was equally shocked.

He had never seen Audrey so angry at first!

"I..." Audrey was at a loss for words. Haley sneered, "Given the current situation, you are not unaware that apart from the Arrision family, there is no other choice for the Haggard family to make progress. The best solution to this matter is probably to continue to hang on to the engagement." The more Audrey thought about it, the angrier she became.

Waves of anger surged in her heart. Before Leon was the "But if that's the case, I will never be able to get rid of the identity of Leon's mistress who never entered the door. And did you see it just now? That guy Leon deliberately humiliated me in front of Emerald!" Haley's face was full of unwillingness, "There is no other way. Who made the Arrision family so powerful? If the Haggard family wants to surpass the Arrision family's foundation and status, the gap is not small. And if we want to talk about it, the Arrision family is also constantly developing and growing. Unless..."

"Unless what?" Audrey frowned.

"Unless Emerald disappears from this world completely!" Haley's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness. Audrey immediately raised her hand and interrupted Haley's thoughts. She said, " Emerald has always been Leon's wife from beginning to end. We cannot be so extreme. Otherwise, if Leon gets angry, the consequences will be even greater."

"And there is one more thing that is the most important. I, Audrey, am not this kind of despicable person. If I want to win, I must win fairly and let Leon have nothing to say!" Haley's face changed, and he quickly apologized, "I was foolish to say that. Please forgive me, Miss."

"From now on, you are not allowed to say such things in front of me. Also, I informed the elders that I would stay in Cuba for a while and would not go back so soon. I don't believe that I can't find an opportunity!" Audrey snorted coldly and immediately pushed open the door and went to the next room.

The next day!

Early in the morning, Leon received a call from Ada's Lewis. The results of the vice president's election had been decided and were waiting to be announced. Leon was surprised at how quickly this had happened, as he had expected it to take more time.

What surprised him even more was the unexpected result of the election: Adam's family from Cuba had received the most votes and had been elected as the new vice president. "Are you joking with me?" Leon asked in disbelief. Ada's Lewis explained, "Young Master, this is the truth. You praised Adam's family in front of the entire chamber during the last audit and even said that you would help them grow. So, when the voting began, many people directly voted for Adam's family."

"Of course, those votes were not enough to make the Adam's family a strong contender. The turning point was when the Charlton family from Oz went to Cuba to campaign for them, which made many people aware of their candidacy."

"After the Charlton family was disqualified, the situation was almost one-sided, and more than 90% of the votes went to the Adam's family!"

"Even now, the Adam's family is unaware of their victory and has even voted for Someone else." Leon couldn't help but smile bitterly. The Adam's family had accidentally become the winner of the election?

However, upon reflection, Leo had noticed that Adam's family had been doing a good job lately, and he couldn't find any faults with their work. Although their family background was not as strong as others, their attitude towards work was commendable.

Before this, Leon and Freya had some conflicts, but it was all due to a misunderstanding. Freya had already apologized and made up for it, So there was no need to dwell on it. Otherwise, it would be petty.

"Very well, then let's announce the new vice president tomorrow. Notify all the Servants and families to gather at the chamber, and I will make the official announcement," Leon said.

On the other end of the phone, Ada's Lewis was beaming with joy, "Great, I'll prepare for tomorrow's arrangements. And I have to say, Young Master, you are truly amazing. You effortlessly solved such a difficult situation."

"The Old Madam has received the news, but instead of being angry, she praised you in front of the entire Arrision family like never before. She was laughing so hard that she couldn't close her mouth." To this, Leon responded coldly, "Soon, I'll make sure she won't be laughing anymore."

    Half an hour later, Leon arrived at the clinic as usual, accompanied by Emerald. Due to the sudden marriage registration yesterday, Leon had not informed Edith in advance, so now he had to tell her the great news in person. However, as soon as Leon parked the car, he saw a middle-aged stranger standing at the clinic's entrance. The middle-aged man was dressed in a suit and had a gentle and refined demeanor, but also exuded an indescribable aura of authority that made people hesitate to approach him. When he saw Leon getting out of the car, the middle-aged man seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and his eyes revealed a complex expression. As their eyes met, even without any verbal communication, Leon, based on their blood relationship, guessed the identity of the middle-aged man before him. However, even so, Leon couldn't help but freeze in place. He had only heard the man's voice over the phone before, but now he was face to face with him. At this moment, Leon's em

    After the celebration, Leon left the ward alone. As he looked outside, he found that his father, Caleb, was nowhere to be seen. Although disappointed, Leon felt relieved because if Caleb had come with genuine intentions, he might have been swayed by their familial ties, and this would have caused complications if he had taken action against the Arrision family in the future. But now, everything was going according to Leon's plan, and he no longer needed to worry about his father's influence. He could finally reject his hypocritical and heartless father without hesitation. At that moment, Emerald walked out of the ward. Seeing Leon's expression, she felt a pang of heartache but didn't know how to comfort him. She could only hold his arm silently. After a few minutes, Leon said, "Emerald, the Chamber of Commerce will announce the vice president tomorrow, come with me." Emerald was puzzled. "What does it have to do with me? What can I do?" Leon patted her hand and smiled.

    With Leon's instructions, the news quickly spread to the Charlton family in Oz. Learning of Leon's attitude, the entire Charlton family was immediately frightened. Especially the patriarch Lucio, who scolded Amy in front of the whole family. "Amy, it's all your fault this time. If it weren't for you offending the young master in Cuba, would things have developed to this point? Now the young master has personally ordered us to arrive at the Chamber of Commerce within fifteen minutes. If we exceed the time limit, our Charlton family will be immediately expelled from the Chamber of Commerce and stripped of all project resources. Do you know how serious this is?" Faced with her husband's scolding and accusations, Amy's face turned ashen. "It's not like I wanted this to happen. Who knew that Emerald would have such good luck and be able to climb up to the young master Leon? And it's not like I said I wouldn't attend this time. It's clearly because you're ashamed." Seeing this, Luc

    Silence, a deathly silence! The entire business association and all the servants witnessed it, and none of them showed anything but awe. Although the position of Mrs. Dora was indeed very high, the servants only had the duty to obey. However, many of the servants present were quite clear in their hearts about the gap between Emerald, who came from a second-tier family in Cuba, and Leon. Previously, everyone's respect and address of Mrs. Dora were entirely due to Leon's authority, and they only felt that Emerald's attendance at the business association was just a supporting role. However, now, with Emerald's solemn statement and firm tone, all the servants dared not have the slightest contempt and suddenly realized that the woman chosen by the young master could not be simple! At this moment, Ada's Lewis stood up and broke the silence. "According to the Arrision family rules, those who violate them must be expelled from the family." "Those who are audacious, disrespectful,

    Faced with this situation, everyone was caught off guard. Bernie, as the hot favorite, only got one vote. And Dean, who followed closely behind, got zero votes! This voting result was really surprising. Godfrey was at a loss and couldn't figure out why the votes disappeared into thin air. Leon scanned the audience again and announced straightforwardly, "The total number of votes for this election is sixty, all from the major servant families in Bahamas Province. Clair family in Oz got one vote, the Gold family in Thule got two votes, and the Tolu family in Narnia got three votes! The remaining fifty-four votes all go to Adam's family in Cuba! " " Wow!" As soon as the voting result was announced, a shocked voice echoed throughout the room. The servants looked at each other in surprise and realized that they had almost all voted for Adam's family in Cuba, which helped Godfrey win the position of vice president. Bernie was stunned, his eyes bulging. "Old Godfrey, you didn

    The inheritance is temporarily undecided, and the young master's identity has been stripped away. In addition, the power of the Chamber of Commerce has also been revoked. The people present were shocked by this decision, which was an intentional suppression. Godfrey's expression was serious. He had just been appointed as the vice president, which should have been a happy moment. However, in the blink of an eye, he was faced with such a huge change. He couldn't help but speak up, "Master Leon, I know I shouldn't interfere, but since Young Master Leon became the heir, everything he has done has been impeccable. In fact, in many ways, it has been beneficial to the Arrision family and has caused no harm." "Isn't it unreasonable to target the young master like this? Caleb stood with his hands behind his back, pretending to be helpless. He then sighed, "This is the decision of the old lady. It involves Lior, so we have no choice but to do this. Although I am the head of the A

    "Why? What gives him the right?" Avril gritted her teeth and raged. "What kind of drug did Leon give you to make you all so obedient?" Considering the timeline, Leon had only taken over the Chamber of Commerce for a few days. It had been a hard-won opportunity for Avril to Suppress him. She couldn't understand why everyone was so submissive to Leon, especially in front of her as the new president. It was a great humiliation that made her furious. Little did she know that during his takeover of the Chamber of Commerce, Leon had already established a solid position and was widely respected. His authority as the young master was deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts, and no one dared to disobey him. Although Leon had lost his position as the young master, in the eyes of all the servants, it was onlya matter of time before he regained it with his skill and courage. The most crucial point was that Leon was not an unreasonable person. He was fair in rewarding and

    Leon's attitude was simply incomprehensible to Audrey. The situation was clear: without the support of his position as the young master and the Haggard's family, Leon had no chance of successfully taking over and ascending to power. After all, with Lior's influence, Leon could only turn to the Haggard's family to turn the tide. However, the realityy was completely different from what he had imagined. "I haven't even said that I dislike you, but you're the one who dislikes me?" Audrey said incredulously. Leon waved his hand as if to dismiss him. "Can't I dislike you? Or do you think that just because of your superior background, you won't be disliked by anyone? l advise you to leave Cuba as soon as possible, instead of wandering around in front of me like a fly." "Leon, you really don't know what's good for you!" Haley was furious. "I don't need outsiders to judge whether I know what's good for me or not, and you don't have the right to do so either," Leon sai

    Faced with this situation, Tiger could hardly believe that Leo was still alive! What surprised Tiger even more was that he knew about it! It must be noted that Leo was the beloved of the old lady and had always been protected by her, and she had given him absolute inheritance lights early on. If it weren't for Leo's accident overseas, Leon would never have had a chance to take over, let alone have any opportunity at all! If the old lady found out that Leo was still alive, the situation would definitely cause a huge upheaval, and even if Leon had a thousand abilities, he would not be able to escape the old lady's suppression! Thinking of this, Tiger couldn't help but start to breathe heavily. Especially when he thought of the various grievances he had suffered and the scene of being blocked outside the door, Tiger's expression changed as if he had finally found a chance to turn the tables. So Tiger immediately said, "I didn't expect that Leo was still alive, and that my L

    "What are you guys doing?" Seeing Lyrick's actions, Coco was momentarily stunned. Lyrick quickly realized Coco had come down from upstairs and immediately straightened his back, pretending nothing had happened. He hooked his arm around Leon's shoulder and smiled, "It's nothing, I dropped something and was just picking it up." Coco didn't think much of it and thought Lyrick was telling the truth. She hurriedly walked over and said, "I thought something was wrong with you guys. Lyrick, you're so forgetful, you almost forgot your keys." "Look at my memory, if you hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten!" Lyrick slapped his forehead and picked up the forgotten keys before leaving. As soon as he was out of sight, Coco's face changed and she glared at Leon, saying, "Leon, are you.satisfied with how things have turned Out?" "Cousin, this is all your fault from start to finish. What does my satisfaction have to do with anything?" Leon replied calmly. Coco snorted, "If it weren'

    With the business card in his hand, Lyrick's eyes widened in shock. The card was from the Family Chamber of Commerce, and it belonged to the president, Caleb! At that moment, Lyrick's mind went blank, and he was almost overwhelmed by the realization of the value of this card. As a member of the Reynolds family in Cartel, he knew better than anyone else that not everyone was qualified to receive such a card, especially with the Chamber of Commerce seal on it. It was then that Lyrick finally understood everything that Leon had said. Leon was the young master, and the young master was Leon. And Coco's family background was definitely protected and deliberately Concealed. Lyrick's heart raced, and he struggled to maintain his composure. He looked at Caleb, then at Leon and Coco, who had not yet sat down, and his scalp tingled. But before Lyrick could say anything, and before Coco could notice anything, Caleb quickly took the card back and put it back in her pocket. She

    That night, after work, Leon went out with Lyrick. For this meeting, Lyrick had bought many expensive gifts on the way, intending to personally give them to Stevin and show his filial piety to gain the approval of his elders. In addition, Lyrick kept talking about the events of the day, repeatedly exclaiming in amazement. "The young master is truly amazing. He struck like thunder. Tiger must be feeling very frustrated right now!" "But on the other hand, Tiger also thinks very highly of himself. His ambitions have long been known to everyone, and he has had more than one conflict with President Godfrey in private. He really thought that without any evidence in hand and with the Light family's status in Jinling, no one could do anything to him. But when the young master issued that document, he didn't care about any of that. He was simply too clever for his Own good!" "if I have the chance, I really want to see the young master with my own eyes, up close, and see wh

    "Because..." Soko was almost suffocating, his heart pounding, the answer was about to come out. Unfortunately, at this critical moment, Leon suddenly took a step forward and interrupted Soko's words, saying, "Of course it's because of a guilty conscience that Soko is in a hurry to leave!" Soko's throat tightened, instantly understanding Leon's meaning, that he didn't want to reveal his identity so quickly and deliberately interrupted him! Tiger retorted confidently, "This is simply nonsense, where does the guilty conscience come from!" Leon swept the room and said unabashedly, "As far as I know, since the establishment of the Keartonia branch, the Light family has been behind the scenes, intending to control the branch's power, and there have been many frictions with President Godfrey." "I think everyone knows these things, it's just that they haven't been brought to the surface yet. How could the young master not know?" Tiger angrily rebuked, "You have no evidence, don't

    With the exposure of the punishment document, the whole scene suddenly became uproarious. Many high-level officials present were all at a loss and found it unbelievable. "It's actually a punishment document?" Tiger's face turned pale, and he couldn't believe that things would develop in this direction. Soko suddenly turned his head, his eyes bulging with shock as he looked at Leon. His throat seemed to be blocked by a stone, and he couldn't speak a word. His heart was even more turbulent. Godfrey held the document and announced one of the punishments publicly, "Yes, this is a punishment document. From now on, Tiger will be suspended and will not serve as the vice president!" Upon hearing this punishment, Tiger was even more incredulous. His whole face turned iron blue, and he immediately questioned, "Why such a severe punishment for me? l don't think I have done anything wrong!" "The young master has his reasons for doing so. If you are not satisfied, you can go to the hea

    Within just five minutes, the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce issued a document, which was unexpectedly fast. Soko widened his eyes and tensed up, finding it hard to believe that such a coincidence could happen, especially with the summoning of a meeting by Godfrey. He was extremely nervous about the content of the headquarters' document. When he asked about it, he was told that the document wasconfidential and would only be announced during the meeting. Soko did not get a clear answer, and his heart raced even faster. Could it really be as Leon described? Soko did not want to believe that he would be so unlucky as to be caught in the cross hairs. Soko gritted his teeth and said, "Leon, the document has not been announced yet. We don't know the result. Maybe it's just about the development of the branch?" "If the document needs to be announced during the meeting, why not go to the conference room in person?" Leon smiled. "Leon, stop pretending. You are the one wh

    "Not just the head of this department?" "Then may I ask, do you have any other identity? Soko looked at Leon with a strange expression, with a hint of playfulness. Leon remained calm, sitting opposite Tiger with a faint smile on his face, and said, "I am the founder of the New Chamber of Commerce and the president of the New Chamber of Commerce, Leon himself!" As soon as the Words were spoken, Soko was shocked. Even Tiger couldn't help but be shocked, his face changing. But soon, the father and son shook their heads one after another, treating it as a joke. Soko couldn't help laughing, "Although you have the same name and surname as the young master, you are not the same person as him at all. You are just the cousin of Coco, whose background is just an ordinary family!" "I thought you were so confident because you had some ability, but l didn't expect to be so disappointed. And you even said such absurd things, it's simply shameless." Tiger also didn't believe it

    "Leon, I advise you to be sensible!" "Don't think that being in charge can make any difference." "This position was originally meant for me!" Soko stood by, speaking with great Confidence. As the eldest son of the Light family, Soko indeed had the confidence to speak like this. Especially since the Light family's position and influence in Kealonia Province was absolutely not to be underestimated, most of the family forces in the branch had some kind of attachment to the Light family! This was also why, after the establishment of the Kealonia branch, Tiger became the vice president in one fell swoop! In terms of relationships, influence, and strength, few in the Kealonia branch could match Tiger. If it were anyone else in this situation, they would surely choose to back down and not offend the Light family. But the situation was quite the opposite. The person standing in front of them was not an ordinary person, but the founder of the New Forest Chamber of Commerce! "Vice Pr
