The series of words that came out of Leon's mouth made Lady Sofia frown. Just the day before yesterday, that man had given the company owned by the Stern family the opportunity to cooperate with his company, but now he suddenly canceled it at the last minute.Even though Lady Sofia didn't dare disobey Leon's orders, she tried to ask the reason for Leon's change of decision so quickly.“Young master, why should we cancel this cooperation? Is there anything about the Stern family company that you don't like?” asked Lady Sofia."The only thing I don't like is the owner," Leon said with an annoyed sigh. All the sarcasm and insults that David directed at Leon still remained in Leon's head.The first meeting with David only gave Leon a bad impression of him. Leon would not want to collaborate with people who were arrogant and dared to insult him.Lady Sofia fell silent upon hearing Leon's answer. She didn't dare comment again if Leon's reasons were related to his personal life."I deliberat
Elsa had just returned from the toilet and gasped when she saw David being thrown out by the security guard. She immediately ran to stop them.“Stop!” Elsa exclaimed as she chased them.They stopped in their tracks and turned to Elsa. The woman approached and stood in front of them, blocking their path.“David, what happened?” Elsa asked.It wasn't David who answered, but the security guard.“He's already making a fuss here.”“Make a fuss? But he came here to cooperate with this company. Lady Sofia invited him," said Elsa."That cooperation has been cancelled.""What?" Elsa's eyes widened, she looked at David with an expression of disbelief.“David, what really happened?” She demanded David's explanation.With an annoyed expression, David replied, "I'd rather not talk about it!" Then security officers dragged David out of the building.Elsa froze there without getting an explanation of what actually happened. She watched her fiancé leave with a sad expression. She understood how disap
Leon got up from his fall with a cut on the edge of his lip. He glared at David and returned the man's punch until David fell to the floor.Leon wouldn't let David get up and win the fight, so he sat on top of David's body to lock the man's body. He threw punches mercilessly until blood flowed from David's nose.Their fight was discovered by other guests who came to the toilet. Security officers immediately came to stop them."Let me go! I want to teach that bastard a lesson!” shouted Leon, struggling.David touched his nose, and the blood moved to his hand. Receiving a report that their partner was fighting in the toilet, Elena and Elsa rushed to the toilet.“Leon!”“David!”They were shocked to see their partner's condition. Elsa was much more surprised because David's injuries were much greater than Leon's.“Why did you do that, Leon?” Elsa exclaimed while looking at Leon with an angry gaze.Before Leon answered Elsa's question, David spoke first. “I was just offering him a job at
Lady Sofia came to Leon's room to deliver a document. The woman sat in front of Leon with an annoyed expression. She had a chance to chat with Elena, and she felt sorry for the girl.Leon turned his gaze to Lady Sofia, who was initially fixated on the documents. "Is there anything wrong, Sofia?"“No, young master. When I was in the employee dining room, I saw several people making fun of a girl. I helped the girl and gave them a warning. The poor girl is from Havelock.”Leon gasped when he heard that the woman was from Havelock. He was sure that Lady Sofia meant Elena.“What happened to that girl? Is she okay?” Leon immediately looked panicked."She is fine. I heard them insulting her boyfriend, they said that her partner was just a loser.”“Who dares make fun of her?”"They are employees of the marketing division."Without needing to mention names, Leon could immediately guess that the people who insulted Elena were Elsa and Rebecca.“But I already gave them a first warning. If they
Elena would soon get married. She flied to Havelock with Leon to meet her family. She didn't tell her family that she was going there.When they got home, Elena and Leon accidentally heard shouting coming from inside their house. Elena could recognize that the voice was her stepfather's.Seeing the open door, Elena immediately went into the house. She saw her grandmother sitting on the floor in a pool of soup, and her parents were looking at her grandmother with eyes full of anger.“Grandma!” Elena immediately approached her grandmother and helped her to stand up.“Elena, Leon? Why didn't you tell us about your arrival?” Renee asked while showing a fake smile.Leon looked at Elena's parents with a look full of suspicion."What did you do to grandma?" Elena exclaimed.“We didn't do anything to her. She just accidentally fell and spilled the soup," replied Renee."You lie! I heard him shouting at Grandma!"Elena pointed at her stepfather. "Have you been treating grandma like that all th
That woman was Cora Windsor. She looked at Mrs. Garcia with a sharp gaze."Do you think that by saying sorry, my glasses will return again?""Sorry, young lady, but I really didn't step on it on purpose.”Cora snorted. She smiled wryly. “Do you know how much these glasses cost?”Mrs. Garcia shook her head. “I don't know how much those glasses cost, but maybe I can replace them.” The old woman would not run away from responsibility."The price of this glasses is 2000 dollars."Mrs. Garcia looked confused. She didn't have that much money right now. "Miss, do you have a number I can call when I have enough money to replace your glasses?" asked the old woman in a soft voice.Cora snorted as she folded her hands across her stomach. “Do you think I believe your words? I have often met people like you. They are just liars. I will not be deceived again and feel sorry this time.”“But I'm not someone like them, Miss. I even came here together with my granddaughter."“Together with your grandda
Leon frowned at Cora's question. “Why do you ask about the ring?” He asked back."Elena said that the ring is a ring that has been passed down from your family.""Yes, it is true."“How can your family have such an expensive ring?”"Can you guess the price of the ring?"Cora chuckled. “Leon, don't you know that one of my family's companies sells jewelry? I can tell the price of a piece of jewelry just by looking at it.”"But the ring isn't expensive," said Leon. He chose to give an answer that did not arouse suspicion.Cora looked at Leon suspiciously. "Or perhaps you stole the ring?" she accused."Shut up your mouth, Cora!" Leon was so annoyed with the woman in front of him. He still remembered what Cora did at the party that hurt Elena's hand. Without saying another word, Leon walked away from there.Cora stared at Leon's departure with her questions still unanswered. She took a deep breath. “Why would I waste your time just trying to find out about the ring? Who knows, maybe I saw
In the evening, unbeknownst to Elena and Leon, Mrs. Garcia went out to buy a cake for Elena. She wanted to celebrate her granddaughter's pregnancy.Mrs. Garcia went on foot to look for a cake shop that was still open at that time. After exploring the street, she found a cake shop that seemed suitable.The cake shop was across the street, so Mrs. Garcia had to cross the street. In the direction of the road, there was a red Porsche driven fast by Edward Lackner. The man was driving his car under the influence of alcohol."Who's there!" Leon honked at Mrs. Garcia and hoped the old woman would get out of his way. But the speed of the car was fast, and his sudden inability to brake caused the man to hit Mrs. Garcia.The old woman hit the body of Edward's car and made her body fall to the ground with blood all over her head.Edward was very scared when he knew that he had just hit someone. Mrs. Garcia's blood sprayed his car and added red to the Porsche.The street was very quiet. Edward, w
