2025-01-25 03:53:33Leon's strange behavior puzzled Audrey greatly. It was completely illogical!
Could it be that Leon had known all along and was just acting the whole time? But no matter how hard Audrey tried, he couldn't figure out where Leon's confidence came from, even if he was just acting. Before Audrey could come to a conclusion, Audrey and her daughter immediately mocked him, using extremely insulting language. "Leon, the cards we have in our hands are something you can't defend against. Just now you said we should bow down and admit defeat, but I think the one who will really have to admit defeat is you. "I'm sorry to say, we were still planning on keeping this a secret from you, but now that our cards are on the table, I think you should be very clear about what the final outcome will be. You, a bastard, have no way out." Facing these words, Leon found it even more amusing. Adeline and her daughter probably couldn't even imagine what kind of situation Leo was in now. Of course, in order to successfully continue this play, Leon did not directly reveal the truth. So Leon continued to act, deliberately putting on a shocked expression and saying,"No wonder Linton came all the way from overseas to Cuba. It turns out that Leo didn't die at all." "Leo, you have no choice this time. It's a losing battle no matter how you look at it!" Adeline looked smug. "A bastard is still a bastard. When my brother Leo comes back, you won't have a chance." Avril laughed, her eyes full of pride. At the right moment, Freya stepped forward, their acting skills in perfect harmony, and shouted loudly, "The matter is not over yet. Don't jump to conclusions too soon. Our young master will never be defeated so easily!" "Not bad. Everything is not over yet. There is still half a year until the old lady's 80th birthday" Leon nodded. "Half a year? I think you are just daydreaming. You don't need that long. My Son doesn't deserve to wait for you for so long. I bet you will be done in less than ten days or two weeks!" Adeline relentlessly added fuel to the fire. "So what if Leo is done? I, Leon, believe that I am not inferior to anyone!" Leon said in a deep voice. "Well, I want to see what expression you will have then. But speaking of which, you must have seen it too, Leon is just struggling to hold on. Why bother? Why not marry Leo and be my daughter-in-law?" Adeline decisively changed the subject and winked at Audrey, Audrey's face turned pale. No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't come up with an accurate Conclusion. What was so unreasonable about it? Audrey clenched her fists and resolutely said, "Don't continue this topic in front of me. No one wants to be your daughter-in-law!" Avril widened her eyes and said, "Avril, don't be shameless!" Adeline quickly reached out to stop Avril and put on a false smile, "Avril, shut up. Audrey will be your sister-in-law in the future. How can you talk to your sister-in-law like this? Although she doesn't want it now, I think it won't be long before she understands." After saying this, Adeline and Avril turned and left. After they left, Audrey finally moved her gaze away and stared straight at Leon. Leon spread his hands and said, "Audrey, you should be very clear about the current situation. If you continue to entangle, there will be no benefit. I advise you to leave Cuba as soon as possible." "You are acting strange!" Audrey narrowed her eyes suspiciously. "Where am I acting strange?" Leon shrugged. "Yesterday I told you something, and you were very calm about it. But now you are pretending to just find out. Aren't you acting strange? Are you hiding something from me?" Audrey stepped closer as if she wanted to see through Leon. Leon sighed and shook his head as he explained, "What else can I do at this point? Should I just lose my temper in front of you? So my only option now is to hold on in front of Adeline and her daughter, try to delay time, and seek opportunities." Seeing Leon sigh, Audrey was taken aback. This was the first time she had seen this expression on Leon since they met. From the beginning, Leon had presented an unstoppable and invincible momentum. Now, with this expression, Audrey couldn't help but feel moved, and ripples of emotion surged in her heart. "I'll stay." "Let me use connections to help you!" Audrey suddenly said something shocking. Even after she said it, she couldn't believe it herself. It was completely subconscious. At this critical moment, Leon raised his hand and refused to face her, "I, Leon, don't need anyone's help, let alone relying on a woman like you!" Audrey was taken aback again. When she reacted, she couldn't help but get angry and scolded, You arrogant man! It's already at this point, and you still say such things to me. When have | ever helped anyone like this?" "| don't need it. l don't want to owe you or burden anyone else. Whether I live or die in the end is my own business. You'd better pack up and leave noW. Even if you don't marry Leo, don't get involved!" Leon spoke decisively. "I've never seen anyone like you. You really disappoint me. I thought you were a worthy opponent, but in the end, you're nothing. I was wrong about you, Leon!" Audrey was furious, slammed the door, and left. Freya took a step forward and stood beside Leon, his expression bitter as he spoke softly, "Young Master, is this really a good idea? Although Audrey doesn't know anything now, if she finds out the truth in the end, she might be even more angry!" Leon replied, "There's nothing wrong with it. The further apart this relationship is, the better. After all, I already have Emerald. I shouldn't have any other thoughts. Otherwise, I would be ashamed in front of everyone, and I don't want to become a hypocrite like Caleb."

Time passed by in the blink of an eye, and half a month had already gone by. During this period, the influence of the New Forest Chamber of Commerce continued to expand rapidly. Almost all the local families in Panama Province joined the New Forest Chamber of Commerce in order to gain resources and seize opportunities. The speed of this expansion was truly astonishing. Even the servant families of the clan in the neighboring provinces of Diva and Shine had received the news and were greatly shaken. When Linton returned from the New Forest Chamber of Commerce, he immediately conveyed the specific news to Leo. "Young master, things are not looking good. The chairmen of the Diva and Shine clan chambers of commerce have both come to visit today. Leon's momentum is now unstoppable!" Upon hearing this news, Leo's face turned pale with anger and frustration. The Diva and Shine chambers of commerce were a significant presence within the clan. If the two chairmen chose to align them

"My brother Leo never died from the beginning to the end!" "Now he is in Cuba!" "With my brother Leo here, how could this wild seed have a chance? In front of everyone, Adeline had no more cover, and blurted out loudly, as if the winner had arrived. Avril stood by, looking smug, exuding a false sense of power. In an instant, there was an uproar. Anyone who heard that Leo was not dead was incredulous. Especially Stevin and Luca the couple's faces changed dramatically! Stevin quickly shook her head: "This is impossible!" "Leo had an accident overseas a long time ago. For such a long time, there has been no news. Everyone has already assumed the outcome. How could he suddenly appear in Cuba?" Luca held his breath. If Leo had come back from the dead, it would be a devastating blow to Leon! Adeline raised her chin and said confidently, "If you don't believe it, you can wait for Linton to arrive and ask him in person whether it's true or not." Avril echoed

Facing the gaze of the entire audience, Adeline became extremely anxious. Without hesitation, she dialed Leo's phone and put it on speakerphone. Immediately, Leo's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Mom, how did things go?" "They know I'm still alive, aren't they surprised?" "ls Leo's expression ugly now?" As the voice echoed around, the people present turned pale again. "Did you hear that? That's my son Leo's voice!" Adeline immediately raised the phone as if holding a token of the emperor, with a domineering and imposing manner. Avril also proudly echoed, "I don't think you have anything to say now!" Stevin and Luca couldn't help but feel surprised and couldn't speak for a while. In an instant, the surroundings fell into silence. Adelin's smile deepened, deliberately staring at Leon's eyes, and then said in a strange tone to the phone, "Leo, do you know what the situation is here now?" "That bastard Leon actually bought off Linton, telling lies wi

"Leo, what's going on?" "Why did you hang up the phone and not come to the New Forest Chamber of Commerce in person?" "Are you hiding something or did Leon catch you in a compromising position?" Adeline was extremely anxious and repeatedly questioned Leo over the phone, in front of Avril. Leo was extremely frustrated on the other end of the phone, but he couldn't bring himself to tell Adeline and her daughter the truth. He didn't want the entire Arrision family to know that he had been played by Leon to such an extent. So, Leo had to maintain his Composure and put on a show, explaining forcefully, "Actually, I've known all along that Leon bought off Linton. Leon wants to use this to delay the situation and cover up the truth that l'm still alive. He said he cared about it a lot, so I went along with his plan and turned the tables on him!" Adeline was taken aback. "Turn the tables on him?" Avril was so anxious that she was about to lose her mind. "Brother, at this

Not long after the reception of the Chamber of Commerce ended, Leon and his team arrived at the medical center. After this period of rest, Adeline's condition had almost recovered, and she could already get out of bed and walk around. However, due to the tense situation, for safety reasons, Adeline's range of activity was also very small, limited to within the medical center. When she saw Leon leading Stevin and Luca walking into the medical center gate, Adeline's, who was wearing a patient's gown, was stunned for a moment, and then a strong surprise appeared on her face as she walked up to them quickly. "Sister!" Adeline grabbed Stevin's hands. "Adeline, I didn't expect that after so many years, you still recognize me as your sister!" Stevin's eyes were red and she felt heartbroken. For this long-awaited reunion, Adeline couldn't help but shed tears of gratitude and said, "If it weren't for you guys back then, secretly coming to Cuba to help us, I and Leon pr

"Yes, you are so annoying!" "Don't think that just because you helped me out of good will, I will be grateful to you. From beginning to end, I, Leon, have never asked for your help, nor do I need it!" "So, please don't be presumptuous!" Leon picked up his teacup, his expression becoming extremely cold. Audrey stood still, feeling as if he had been struck a heavy blow. His face couldn't help but turn pale, and his emotions were fluctuating violently. Finally, Audrey's eyes turned red, tears welling up in them as he looked at Leon with resentment and said, "Fine, I'll leave Cuba tonight and go back to Panama to cancel the engagement. From now on, you and | have nothing to do with each other." "l couldn't ask for more!" Leon nodded. "Don't regret it." Audrey clenched his fists, his nails digging into his flesh. "I have no reason to regret it. This is exactly what I wanted." Leon calmly sipped his hot tea. "Okay, that's what you said!" Audrey

The next day, Audrey left early and arrived at the Chamber of Commerce once again. As soon as she arrived at the gate, she saw a row of specialized chamber of commerce cars, which was quite imposing. "Freya, what!'s going on here?" Audrey quickly walked up and grabbed Freya. "Miss Audrey, didn't you leave Cuba already?" Freya was taken aback. "I was just angry last night. f I really left Cuba, wouldn't Leon have won over me?" Audrey raised her chin slightly. "I'm not the kind of person who gives up easily. Since he wants to rack his brains to drive me away, then I'll stay here and make him regret it." Freya couldn't help but smile wryly. "It seems that Miss Audrey still cares about our young master. I thought you would have left already." Audrey made a strange expression and pursed her lips. "I did plan to leave, but then I thought about it carefully. I can't be so embarrassed. Otherwise, what's the difference between leaving in a panic?" Freya sighed helplessly. "Act

Facing Leon's dominance, Audrey was helpless. Especially when Leon started hitting him in front of Freya, he showed no mercy. Leon swung his big hand, causing Audrey to feel extreme pain, as if his butt was blooming like a flower, making a loud sound. Audrey was in a mess, unable to resist the pain that Swept over him. He was crying on the spot, feeling both innocent and ashamed, wishing he could find a hole to hide in. "You can't do this, young master!" Freya saw that things were not going well and quickly stepped forward to stop Leon. But Leon pushed Freya away and continued to beat Audrey recklessly. "Leon, you are not human!" Audrey's face was full of resentment. Leon suddenly increased his strength and said, "If that's the case, then don't treat me like a human being." "l just told you that I came to the New Forest Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the Haggard family to express our stance. By beating me like this, you are undoubtedly destroying the relationship between us!

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
CHAPTER 100
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
CHAPTER 99
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
CHAPTER 97
"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
