"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 smugly, "That's right.

The reason why Representative Linton came back from overseas without notifying the Arrision family in advance was following my brother Leo's orders,

including supporting the new Chamber of Commerce. It's all my brother Leo's doing."

Many ignorant servants present were

suddenly frightened and pale.

"It's over. We've been tricked!"

"Leo deliberately hid behind,

wanting to reap the benefits!" The

scene immediately fell into chaos, with

everyone looking terrified. Even Stevin and her husband were embarrassed to the extreme. At this

critical moment, Leon suddenly took

a few steps forward and said in front of

everyone, "Leo is dead, this is a

fact, why do you have to play this

game? Don't you think it's

embarrassing?"

"Leon, I think you're just pretending to

delay the situation here. I already told

you before whether Leon is alive or

dead!" Adeline sneered.

Leon remained calm and responded

calmly, "I'm not delaying the situation,

I'm just stating the facts."

"You keep saying that Leo is not

dead. Then I want to ask, if he's still

alive, why did he go through so much

trouble to come to Cuba?"

"In addition, Leo deliberately hid for

so long. Why didn't he just go back to Panama directly? Wouldn't that be

simpler?"

"That's because Leo wanted to see if you, a wild seed, had any ability, and then he would kill you!" Adeline

widened her eyes.

Freya stood up at the right time

and said, "This is a completely

self-contradictory statement. Even if I

were Leo, I would never do such a

thing. Unless Leo was so conceited

that he thought he could control

everything, he would waste his time

like this. Moreover, the new

Chamber of Commerce seems to have

not developed to its peak!"

Stevin nodded in agreement, then

regained her composure and stared at Adelins sternly, saying in a stern

voice, "Adeline, you and your

daughter had better not act here, and

don't think you can achieve anything by

playing this game!" Adeline laughed instead of getting

angry, and even laughed particularly

loudly. She pointed at everyone in the

audience and sneered, "Look at your

formation, it's so funny. After Linton arrives, I wonder if you can still laugh."

Avril in spoke up confidently,

"Representative Linton is fully aware of

the situation. I can guarantee it with my

personal integrity!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a

black sedan arrived as if in response. It

was Linton!

Upon seeing the figure of Linton, Avril and her daughter

couldn't help but shine with

anticipation. Meanwhile, the entire

group of servants was suffocating with

nervousness.

"Linton, tell everyone what's

going on!" Adeline demanded.

"Just tell them whether my brother Leo is alive and where he is. I guarantee they won't be able to refute it," Linton replied.

All eyes immediately shifted to Linton, including those of Stevin and Luca.

Linton looked around, then

shook his head in surprise. "What are

you talking about? Leo has passed

away, that's a fact. I came here today to

participate in the Chamber of

Commerce matters, how could this

kind of thing come up?"

Adelins stared blankly, her mind

going blank. Avril was caught off

guard by this as well.

Stevin secretly breathed a sigh of

relief, then suddenly raised her hand

and slapped Adeline in the face.

"Adeline, you're going too far!"

With a loud smack, Avril fell to the

ground, looking disheveled. Stevin

then turned and slapped Avril,

scolding her, "If Arrision's family were to be

inherited by someone like you, it would

be the biggest mistake. You're making

such a ridiculous scene, lying through

your teeth. Avril, you're so

embarrassing."

The mother and daughter both covered

their faces on the ground, looking at

each other in shock.

"What are you up to, Linton?" Adeline got up angrily.

"Representative Linton, you didn't say

that before. My brother Leo is

clearly still alive!" Avril was in a

desperate and angry posture.

"I don't understand what you're talking

about. There's no such thing. I came

back from overseas this time purely

out of admiration for the young master

and hoping to follow him. That's all!"

Linton coughed a few times,

appearing to have a serious attitude,

but he was actually feeling very

aggrieved inside.

This was a play arranged by Leon

from beginning to end, and his life was

in Leon's hands. How could he not do

his best? Now even Leo didn't

know, and he had been tricked again!

Stevins face was full of anger: "Did

you hear that?"

Luca waved his hand: "l advise

you to leave quickly. Leon's face has

been completely lost because of you."

Adeline's mouth twitched. He never

thought things would come to this

point. He thought he could publicly

humiliate them, but he ended up being

a clown!

Adelins gritted his teeth and took out

his phone directly, urgently saying,

"Linton, this scum, must

have been bought by Leon to do this

on purpose. I'm not making it up. If you

don't believe me, I can call Leo right

now!"

"Yes, we can call and prove it. As long

as we hear his voice, you'll have

nothing to say." Avril was in a

hurry.

Leon smiled and decisively gestured,

"Since so many people are watching,

go ahead and make the call. I also want

to hear Leo's voice."

    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!

    After finishing the call, Audrey felt extremely aggrieved. She was the most innocernt one this time, but it seemed like she had done something wrong! What was even more unacceptable was that Mac had emphasized three times on the phone just now that she must change her previous behavior and be a submissive woman in front of Leon in the future! This was simply outrageous! In addition, in order to restore the reputation of the Haggard's family, Mac had specially arranged for someone to come to Cuba for several days. This person was none other than the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, Mac's right-hand man, Bailey! Bailey's position within the Haggard's family was second to none, highly respected, and even known as "Master Bailey". Even Audrey had to behave like a junior in front of Bailey and not act recklessly! "I can't believe that Master Bailey has to come to Cuba this time." "Once Master Bailey arrives, won't I be unable to say anything in front of Le

    Time passed by! Standing at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, it had been two hours already. Audrey stood with aching back and sore waist, looking extremely impatient. On the other hand, Bailey, dressed in a Tang suit, remained calm and composed, with his hands behind his back. Audrey couldn't help but persuade him, "Bailey, why don't we just give up waiting? It's been such a long time, when will we be able to see him?" "Leon is clearly trying to show off. I could tolerate being humiliated by him before, but I cant let you suffer with me," Audrey continued. Bailey raised his hand slowly and patted Audrey's shoulder, explaining with a meaningful tone, "Audrey, as I've told you before, we cannot act impulsively when dealing with Leon. You must understand that he is not an ordinary person. The more he behaves like this, the more we have to do the opposite. This is the correct choice." "But..." Audrey pouted. "Don't say 'but'. You must realize that we are

    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
