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 said coldly.

"I think you're just asking for trouble. If I

don't teach you a lesson today, you

won't even know how to spell the word

'regret!" Haley was about to

attack, thinking that Leon was no

longer the young master and didn't

need to worry too much. He could take

advantage of this opportunity to teach

Leon a lesson and vent his anger.

But before he could make a move, Audrey raised her hand to stop him.

Haley was taken aback. "Miss,

what are you doing?"

"Don't mess around. You've lost face for

me, Audrey. I can't act recklessly

and unreasonably like this. I won't just

hit someone for no reason!" Audrey

reprimanded him sternly.

"Yes, Miss," Haley gritted his

teeth, feeling frustrated and nowhere to

vent.

Then, Haley smiled again and said

to Leon, "I know that the request for

you to marry into our family may be a

bit excessive. If you don't want to, you

don't have to. A normal marriage is also

fine. But let me make it clear that |

won't follow your Arrision family's rules. At

most, I'll just put on a show when

necessary."

Leon shook his head in disgust."I find

you really annoying. You keep insisting

on something that has been

emphasized so many times."

"If it weren't for this marriage proposal,

I wouldn't even want to look at you, let

alone marry you. You must be

dreaming if you think I would marry

you," Leon said firmly before closing

the door and walking away.

This response left Audrey stunned,

while Haley's was so angry that he

stood outside the door and started to

curse. "Leon, you are nothing! How

dare you refuse my lady's proposal

time and time again!"

But when Leon opened the door

again and asked, "Now that I'm out,

how do you plan to deal with me?" Haley was too intimidated to do

anything. Leon closed the door and

went back inside.

Audrey was still shaking from the

encounter and couldn't understand

why someone could be so despicable

and arrogant. Haley suggested

that they leave Cuba, but Audrey refused. She was determined

to stay and even use her family's

connections to help Leon, just so he

Would owe her a debt.

Haley swallowed his saliva and

lowered his voice, "Miss, you don't

really...like Leon, do you?"

"Nonsense, what are you talking about?

Leon is an arrogant jerk. How couldI

like him? My dealings with him are

purely for my own benefit. I'm helping

him now because it's in my own

interest!" Audrey sneered.

"Miss, the way you say that, I can't help

but feel like you're lying," Haley

squinted suspiciously.

Audrey said seriously, "Why would|

lie? That bastard Leon has no right to

my affection. If it weren't for the

interests of my family, I wouldn't even

bother with him."

"Don't get any funny ideas. I just want

Leon to owe me so much that he'll

never dare to show that expression in

front of me again. Like I said before, I

want to beat him fair and square!" Haley reminded her earnestly, "Miss,

it's better to be like this. Otherwise, if

you willingly become Leon's mistress

someday, it'll be a huge joke. I can't

bear to see you suffer any injustice,

Miss."

"Absolutely impossible!" Audrey

said firmly.

Night!

Audrey and her daughter, who were in

the Chamber of Commerce, received

shocking news.

Audrey had used her connections

with the Haggard's family to stand up for Leon!

The old lady's side was starting to

waver, but because of Lior's

influence, no decision had been made

yet!

When they heard this, Adeline and her

daughter were dumbfounded.

The position of the president hadn't

even warmed up yet, and there was

already a change?

What was even more unbelievable was

that it was Adeline who stood up for

Leon!

"If the old lady really changes her mind

again, wouldn't it be a waste of a day's

hard work?" Avril was anxious and

uneasy, her face full of panic.

Adeline looked surprised. "I dont

know either. It's completely

unreasonable. It's obvious that Audrey shouldn't be helping him, and I was even planning to see Audrey

and ruin the marriage myself."

"Mom, could it be that Audrey really

likes Leon?" Avril's heart trembled.

"That's impossible. With Audrey's

personality, how could she like Leon?

And you know how Leon humiliated

her and wanted her to be his mistress!" Adeline shook her head

vigorously.

"But what if Audrey just happens to

like Leon?" Avril said. "You may not

know, but some people are just strange

like that. The more they are ignored

and not cared about, the more they will

compete."

Adeline was speechless for a

moment, feeling incredulous.

"Do you think there will be any real

changes this time? You should know

that the Haggard's family is still influential!" Avril's voice began to tremble.

Adeline's heart was in her throat,

and she was more nervous than ever

before. "With things like this, I don't

know what to do. We can only wait for

your grandmother's decision!"

    "At the same time, Leon received a call from Ada's Lewis. Ada's Lewis reported everything without any concealment, even though he was forced to return to Rica this time, he remained loyal. After learning about the attitude of the old lady and the actions of Audrey, Leon couldn't find any surprise on his face. After hanging up the phone, Leon smiled.Emerald had already returned to the villa at this time and asked urgently, "Leon, what is the situation now?" Emily and Lex also surrounded Leon curiously, breathing heavily. Leon was calm and put down the phone slowly. After taking a sip of hot tea, he said, "The old lady has made a statement and will officially announce the successor of the Arrision family at her 80th birthday in six months!" Lex scratched his head and asked, "What does that mean?" Emily rolled her eyes and said, "You fool, don't you understand? Although Leon was the young master before, the Arrision family did not officially announce it. Once it is offic

Although he was in Cuba, Savage Leif had already heard about the recent changes. However, Leon remained calm and composed throughout the entire process, which made him deeply shocked. He couldn't come to any conclusion no matter how much he thought about it. If it were someone else, they would have been jumping around anxiously by now. After all, this time not only did they lose the power of the Chamber of Commerce, but also the identity of the young master! After circling around the construction site for a long time, Savage Leif couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, this matter is of great importance. Why do you still have the mood to come here to inspect the project?" "Shouldn't you be focusing on how to regain the power of the Chamber of Commerce?" "You should know that on

    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

    In the name of a concubine, I will stand in for my husband. With these words, Leon had nothing to say. Faced with such remarks, Audrey was completely stunned. "Leon, you are simply arrogant. 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. Like a bolt of lightning, his five fingers turned into dragon claws and grab

    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

    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

    "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

    "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

    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
