Son-in-law of Fortune

CHAPTER 72

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 with

his eyes open, saying that you are not

in Cuba and that you are already

dead. Isn't this funny?"

Leo, who was in the hotel, couldn't

help but get angry. He suddenly

realized why Linton had said

that this was the last chance. It turned

out to be a calculated situation.

Leo couldn't help but curse, "Linton, how dare you betray me!" Linton coughed a few times

again and pretended to reply seriously,

"I'm sorry, I didn't betray anyone. It's

your identity that makes me very

suspicious. Who are you? How dare

you impersonate Leo!"

Upon hearing this, not only Leo on

the other end of the phone, but also

Adeline and her daughter were

stunned. "Are you saying that I am an

imposter?" Leo was almost driven

insane.

Linton firmly declared, "You

are not an imposter? Then what are

you? Leo has long been dead. You

are simply audacious, challenging the

bottom line of the Arrision family!"

Adeline regained her senses and

stared at Linton with a fierce

look, as if she could eat him alive. "You

scum! How dare you say such things?

Don't you have any shame?"

"I, Linton, have always acted

with integrity. It is you, mother and

daughter, who are acting strange and

putting on this absurd show. After this

matter is over, I will definitely report to

the old lady and have her punish you!"

Linton's acting skills were

superb, and his words were flawless.

"Linton!" Leo roared on

the phone.

"Shut up, you fake! It's best not to let

my young master find out who you are,

or you will have no good ending!" Linton sternly warned.

Leo was completely speechless, his

throat felt like it was being choked by a

stone, and he was extremely frustrated.

Adeline held the phone, her face

turning black, her hands and feet

trembling with anger, her teeth

clenched.

Avril couldn't believe it, her eyes full

of disbelief. Stevin raised her hand and slapped

Adeline again, "This is ridiculous!" Luca said, "Have you had

enough of this? If you have, then leave.

We don't have time to accompany you

in your nonsense."

"You..." Adeline covered her face with

her left hand and held the phone with

her right hand, so angry that her teeth

were almost crushed.

"Wait a minute, if you say that my

brother Leo is fake, what if he

comes in person?" Avril suddenly

said something shocking.

Linton sneered, "it's already

this late, and you're still insisting on

this?"

Adeline raised her voice, almost on

the verge of hysteria, staring at Leon

with her eyes wide open: "Avril is

right. As long as Leo comes in

person, none of you can say anything!"

Leon remained calm and composed,

standing with his hands behind his

back. Instead of refusing, he nodded in

agreement and said, "That makes

sense. After all, seeing is believing.

Why don't we let Leo come in

person and let everyone see if it's true

or false?"

Freya interjected, "The problem

is, if it's a fake, does he have the

Courage to come and face us?"

Adeline said firmly, "Why wouldn't he?

Leo is the real deal!"

Leon nodded and took a few steps

forward, looking at the phone in Adeline's hand. He smiled and said, "Leo, whether you're real or fake, I would

like to invite you to come over. Do you

have the courage?"

On the other end of the phone, Leo heard this and his veins bulged. Perhaps others couldn't hear the underlying meaning in these words, but Leo couldn't be more clear.

This was not an invitation at all, it was

clearly a threat!

Not to mention going to the New Forest

Chamber of Commerce, he would

probably be dead within five minutes of

leaving the hotel!

The implication was clear: if Leo

dared to come, he would die!

"You!" Leo was at a loss for words.

"What do you want to say?" Leon's

tone suddenly turned cold.

"I..." Leo was filled with humiliation

and helplessness.

"What about you?" Leon raised his

eyebrows.

At this moment, Leo was at a loss

and wished he could scream to the sky,

wishing he had the ability to disappear

into thin air.

Unfortunately, these were simply

unrealistic expectations.

Faced with this situation, Leo was

unable to find a way out no matter what

he tried. He could only endure the

humiliation and anger, and hung up the

phone!

Upon hearing the phone being hung

up, Adeline and Avril were

completely dumbfounded. They

couldn't understand why Leo would

behave in such a way. With just a few

short sentences, he was forced to not

even dare to come!

Leo smiled faintly, "It seems that

fake goods are still fake goods. They

can't stand the light of day. But I do

admire your performance. I really don't

know what you were thinking."

Suddenly, Adeline had the urge to kill

and explained, "This is impossible.

There must be some mistake here. You

have to believe me!"

Avril's nails were digging into her

palms, almost breaking them. She

cursed, "It must be Leon who did

something behind the scenes, which is

why my brother is like this!"

Stevin angrily rebuked, "Shut up! Do

you still want to continue causing

trouble?"

Mother and daughter stopped, their

eyes red and bloodshot from the

stimulation.

"Today is the day when my New Chamber of Commerce welcomes distinguished guests. I ask that you

mother and daughter stop causing trouble here. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences. Remember, this is

not your home!" Leon said, leaving

the mother and daughter outside and

entering the chamber of commerce

with Stevin, Luca, and the

servants.

Bang!

The door closed, and the mother and

daughter were completely blocked

outside.

"How could it turn out like this?" Adeline's lips turned purple, feeling

incredulous, with a gloomy expression

on her face.

"Should we make another call and ask

my brother?" Avril gritted her teeth.
