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 Leon?"

"I'm so aggrieved!"

Thinking of this, Audrey pouted in

dissatisfaction. She felt that she hadn't

had a good day since coming to Cuba, and now she was even

beaten and hospitalized.

Time passed quickly, and it was

already evening. A luxurious car drove

into the hospital building. A

middle-aged man in a Tang suit got out

of the car and walked into Audrey's

ward with his hands behind his back.

As soon as he saw the face of the

visitor, Audrey struggled to get up,

walked awkwardly towards him, and

shouted in a grim voice, "Master Bailey."

"Audrey, I taught you before that you

should always consider the interests of

the family first. But now that you're here

with Leon, you're acting impulsively

and not like yourself," Bailey frowned

slightly, looking displeased, and patted

Audrey's shoulder.

Audrey explained with a bitter face,

"Master Bailey, things are not what you

think. Leon is just being arrogant and

deliberately making things difficult for

me. I'm the one who's really been

wronged."

Thinking he would get some comfort,

Audrey was surprised when Bailey sternly said, "You didn't consider

the interests of the family and acted

out of line. This time, consider it a

lesson. Get ready to leave the hospital

with me and go to the New Forest

Chamber of Commerce to apologize to

Leon."

"Apologize?" Audrey's mind went

blank.

"Do you think I came down from Cuba for no reason? Leon's

attitude this time, including the

marriage between you two, is the most

important thing for the Haggard's family. I can't

let this matter be messed up!" Bailey resolute expression left no room

for doubt.

"Bailey, you don't know what kind of

person Leon is. If I really go to

apologize, doesn't that mean l, Audrey, have completely lost to him?"

Audrey was stunned and felt even

more wronged.

"In fact, from the beginning, the Haggard's

family has been paying attention to Leon. In various aspects, he is

undoubtedly the dragon among men.

For the future of the Haggard's family, what's

wrong with losing to him once?" Bailey's eyes were shining. Audrey gritted his teeth, "l." Bailey emphasized sternly,

"Moreover, Leon obviously doesn't

respond well to aggression. The more

you behave like this with him, the worse

the outcome will be. Like your father

said, you really need to learn to be

more submissive, at least like a

woman!"

"You're saying I don't look like a

woman?" Audrey pointed at herself.

Bailey looked Audrey up and

down, not concealing his direct answer,

"Apart from your appearance, where do

you look like a woman? And a

dominant person like Leon doesn't

like women who oppose him. You

haven't even met the most critical

condition."

"'So... my father arranged for you to

come al the way from Cuba to Cuba just to teach me how to be a

woman?" Audrey's mouth twitched,

wondering what kind of plot this was

and why the tone was so chaotic.

"Yes, that's the main purpose of my

trip!" Bailey nodded without blushing

or skipping a beat, looking serious. He

then waved his hand, turned around,

and walked out of the ward first.

Audrey had no choice but to follow

behind Bailey. Half an hour later, they

arrived at Chamber of

Commerce after leaving the hospital. It

was already nighttime, but the entire

Chamber of Commerce was still

brightly lit. Without prior notice, Bailey led Audrey to the entrance of the

chamber, where they had to be

announced before being let in. Despite

this, Bailey showed no signs of

displeasure and remained patient

throughout the wait.

After a few minutes, Freya came

out of the chamber personally. "You

must be Mr. Freya," Bailey greeted him

with a friendly gesture.

"lt is a surprise to have Mr. Bailey visit us

in person with such a status," Freya replied with a bow.

"l came here specifically for Audrey's

matter. I want to apologize to Leon,

the young master of the Arrision family, and I hope Mr. Freya can lead the way and arrange a meeting for us," Audrey said,

looking ashamed.

"Please forgive us, Mr. Bailey, but our

young master has declined to meet

with you," Freya hesitated.

"What does he mean?" Bailey raised

his eyebrows.

"My young master refuses to see you

and will not receive you," Freya

said with a stiff tone.

Hearing this, Bailey was stunned and

could hardly believe it. How could Leon be so straightforward and not even

bother to come up with an excuse? It

was a blatant disregard for face.

"Bailey, you see it now. Leon is just

an arrogant fool," Audrey was almost

infuriated and cursed Leon for being

deliberate.

Just as Audrey finished speaking, Bailey suddenly said, "It is understandable

that Leon doesn't want to meet. After

all, this whole thing was Audrey's fault

from beginning to end."

"If l could obtain the forgiveness of

Young Master Leon, even if I have to

stay here until dawn, I will apologize

with sincerity!" Audrey's attitude was

so outrageous that Audrey was

stunned. As a highly respected figure,

Bailey had never shown such humility

in front of anyone before, and he was

even willing to wait outside the door all

night just to catch a glimpse of Leon.

This scene made Audrey deeply

suspect that she was not the true heir

of the Haggard's family, but rather Leon was.

Leon seemed more like a true

descendant of the Haggard's family, while she, Audrey, was just a mere accessory.

What was even more infuriating was

that if Bailey refused to leave, she

Would have to endure the pain and wait

here until he did.

    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

    "Hasn't Leo already died?" "Before, you deliberately acted in front of Stevin in the Chamber of Commerce, causing such absurd things. Do you think I don't know?" "And Linton, who has already publicly declared, why deceive yourselves here?" Bailey's eyebrows raised, his eyes becoming strange. "That scum Linton was just bought by Leon. In fact, my brother Leo didn't die at all. This is a fact." Adeline was confident in her words. Avril confidently praised, "Actually, from beginning to end, it was all my brother Leo's deliberately arranged death trap, just to make Leon jump higher and fall harder. He already knew that Linton was bought. If you don't believe it, you can ask Audrey if my brother is still alive!" Sure enough, Bailey's expression changed immediately. He moved his gaze away and looked at Audrey beside him, asking, "Audrey, is this true or false?" Looking at the mother and daughter's posture, Audrey felt extremely ridiculous. It turned out that they s

    In this situation, Adeline was completely out of her depth. She had thought that Leo was hiding in the background to plan his revenge. Who would have thought that the truth would be so unexpected! Adeline couldn't imagine what fate awaited Leo, who had become a pawn in someone else's hands. But the person in front of her was the bastard she hated the most, and she couldn't bring herself to beg for mercy on her knees. Adeline stood up unsteadily, her eyes full of resentment, glaring fiercely at Leon, gritting her teeth and saying, "Leon, don't think this is over. If that's the case, I don't mind making a big Scene!" Avril's face was tense, but she forced herself to remain calm and agreed, "That's right, I believe that if we make a big enough fuss, the Arrision family won't tolerate your insolence, especially Grandma!" Leon responded lightly, "If that's the case, go ahead and make a fuss. I want to see for myself how far you can go and what kind of effect you can achieve, and wh

    The next day, news about Leo was passed back to Panama by Adeline. Upon learning about the incident, the Arrision family did not show any signs of shock but rather remained skeptical about it. Prior to this, the Arrision family had already known about the absurd incident that Adeline had caused in the New Forest Trading Association in front of Stevin. Most people believed that Leo's existence was baseless and that Adeline was simply putting on a show with a dead person because he had no other options. So far, no one in the Arrision family had seen Leo, and the most crucial point was that Adeline could not produce any concrete evidence and could not even contact Leo as his phone was unreachable. However, due to Leo's special identity and the significant impact of the matter, the Arrision family had to hold an internal meeting, led by the old lady, to discuss the matter. It was only after the meeting ended that they finally came to a conclusion. Meanwhile, when

    The New Chamber of Commerce, Leon sat in his office as Freya knocked on the door and entered. "Young master, just as you expected," Freya said. "Lior is here!" "I have already taken him to the main hall of the Chamber of Commerce to sit." Listening to Freya's report, Leon calmly put down the documents, his eyes showing no emotion, but rather a calm demeanor. Leon nodded slightly and stood up calmly, saying, "You are quick to act. It seems that Lior's is very Concerned about Leo, his grandson." Freya lowered his voice and said, "Young master, Lior is definitely not coming with good intentions. I can see that his attitude is very tough, especially Adeline and her daughter, who are very confident." Leon said, "It's no wonder that Adeline and her daughter have such feelings. After all, Lior's relationships are spread all over the place, and the Province is just a part of his power." "The New Chamber of Commerce is facing expansion. If we want to establish ourselves in th

    Silence, a deathly silence! Everyone present was stunned by the Scene. Adeline and her daughter were even more dumbfounded. Freya was left breathless, shaken to his core. For the person before them was no ordinary character, but the true big shot, Lior! The young master had not hesitated for a moment, and had gone straight up to slap him in the face! This dead silence lasted for half a minute. Finally, Lior could no longer suppress his anger and broke the silence, shouting, "Leon, you bastard! You must not want to live today, to dare to lay a hand on me!" "Why wouldn't I dare to lay a hand on you? Do you think you're someone special in my eyes, Leon? Most importantly, I haven't done anything, and you come up with your gun drawn. Do you think I'm not allowed to fight back against your attitude? What a joke!" Leon's momentum was unyielding and unquestionable. Just as Lior was about to stand up, Leon raised his hand and slapped him again! Smack!!! This slap hit Lior

    Faced with this situation, Adeline couldn't believe it and her face was full of reluctance. Leon, this wild bastard, actually wanted her to kneel down in front of him, which was clearly a great humiliation! Lior squeezed his eyebrows and winked, "Adeline, what are you still standing there for?" Adeline was so angry that she almost bit her teeth off, but she also understood Lior's intentions. Leon sat in the main seat, his gaze deep and scrutinizing Adeline. "I advise you all to be more sober now. Who is the one in control now?" Seeing that there was no other way out, Adeline had to grit her teeth and kneel down on the ground with a mixture of humiliation and anger. "Leon, I beg you to spare Leo's life and let him go. I can guarantee that the Arrision family will not compete with you in the future," Adeline trembled. However, seeing this scene, Leon still did not show a satisfied smile. Instead, he shook his head slowly and said, "As I said earlier, Leo's life is very valuable

    On that day, Lior's visit to the Chamber of Commerce resulted in a heavy blow, and with the help of Freya, the news quickly spread in all directions. Anyone who received this news was shocked and dismayed. As such a prominent figure, he was directly slapped and even received several ear slaps at the Chamber of Commerce. What was most unexpected was that Lior couldn't even let out a fart from beginning to end, which was a complete loss of face. As the news spread, the areas in both the south and north of the River that were involved with Lior's influence were shaken and even some people made a decisive choice to leave his influence and join the Chamber of Commerce. This situation caused Lior's long-standing prestige to collapse in just a few days, and the wind direction in the south and north of the River region changed drastically. Similarly, just a few days later, the two major branches of the Chamber of Commerce were established at an extremely fast pace, and a large

    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
