"Mr. Leo, the news about Mr. Walter belonging to a narcotics organization has spread everywhere." Bram gave a report after two weeks had passed.

In the living room of Mr. Holland's mansion, Leo, Hans, and the Holland family were gathered together watching the news on television. For two weeks straight, ever since Leo had leaked about Mr. Walter being a member of the DID Cartel, all the news media had been playing the same topic.

Leo already had nothing to say. As the news about Mr. Walter spread, Leo saw many people trying to find out about the DID Cartel.

"Leo, did you consider in advance that your actions would cause a crowd?" asked Mr. Holland.

Leo turned his gaze to Mr. Holland who was still looking seriously at the television.

"This is exactly what I predicted, Father. I knew they would find out about the DID Cartel," Leo replied.

"Did you deliberately create this kind of excitement as a diversion?" Mr. Holland asked seriously.

Leo nodded his head. "Yes, I did want to distract Mr. Walter. I'm sure he's panicking because people are trying to find out about the DID Cartel."

"What if Mr. Walter and the other DID Cartel members take a grudge against you, Mr. Leo?" said Hans with a worried expression on his face.

Hans' question made Leo chuckle while shaking his head.

Leo then replied, "Mr. Walter and the DID Cartel members will not feel any grudge. I have a feeling they will come to me to beg me to deny the existence of the DID Cartel."

Mr. Holland folded his arms in front of his chest. He sighed heavily.

"So far, the DID Cartel's whereabouts are unknown. Everyone thinks it is no longer active," Mr. Holland replied.

"I think you have a point, Leo. If they attacked you, they must have thought you had another way of exposing them," Mr. Holland continued confidently.

"That's exactly what I mean, Father. I'm waiting for Mr. Walter to send a message-"

Leo's speech was interrupted when he heard the vibrating notification sound on his cell phone. Leo's gaze automatically shifted downward. After that he took the cell phone from inside his shirt pocket.

When he saw the message that appeared when the phone screen lit up, Leo's eyes widened in surprise. He didn't expect to read Mr. Walter's name as the sender of the message.

Not only that. Leo read the message Mr. Walter sent him.

[MESSANGER]

[MR. WALTER]

[Leo, I would like to meet you. Are you able to have a meeting and discussion with me?"]

Leo grinned with satisfaction after reading the message from Mr. Walter.

"Got it!"

Mr. Holland, Bram, Hans, and the rest of the Holland family frowned at each other. They were curious to see the enthusiastic look on Leo's face.

"What happened, Leo?" asked Mr. Holland.

"Mr. Walter sent me a message and asked to meet me to talk about something," Leo replied. "This is according to my plan."

Hans, who had a worried expression, replied, "Are you coming alone? Mr. Leo, be careful. Who knew Mr. Walter had already prepared a plan to ambush you?"

    "Mr. John has been found guilty of the premeditated murder committed against you, Mr. Leo."Leo looked at Bram who handed him his tablet to tell him a news article. In the car heading to the Araizona Group Company's corporate building, Leo read one of the news articles."The narcotics business at the AHA Club was also exposed. So he owns the biggest club in London?" Leo asked.Bram nodded his head. "That's right, Mr. Leo. After the investigation of yesterday's case, the prosecution found several acts of lawlessness committed by Mr. John."For a split second Leo read the rest of the news caption on the article. After that, he closed the tablet while letting out a long sigh."I already guessed that someone like him must have various illegal businesses behind. I just don't know how to uncover them," Leo said.Bram glanced at Leo through the small rearview mirror above his head."I'm still someone who doesn't have any power. I even borrowed money until I was almost killed by him," Leo sai

    "Welcome everyone. Once again, we are all back in a meeting for one of Grand Ocean Restaurant's business innovations!" The flash light from the cameras shone right at Mr. Walter. As planned one week ago, today was a repeat of the meeting to discuss the plans for the Grand Ocean Restaurant. Since Leo had made a statement through a press conference about the DID Cartel, the news about the DID Cartel had suddenly disappeared. A week passed and many people were no longer talking about the DID Cartel. In the large company hall room, Mr. Walter faced the guests. This time he only invited a few CEOs of large international companies, well-known investors-including the five heads of the DID Cartel and Leo as the main investor, and journalists from media companies that Leo had paid. "I know the news about the DID Cartel a few weeks ago shocked you a lot. Ah, it was a very exciting news," Mr. Walter said with a chuckle. Leo just looked at Mr. Walter seriously. He sat in the very front seat,

    "I don't know what you're talking about," Jonsen said as he gave a meaningful smile that was quite sardonic. Hearing Jonsen's words, Leo raised both eyebrows in astonishment. Somehow Leo already felt that there was something to hide just from the look on Jonsen's face. To be honest, Leo tried to provoke Jonsen to tell the truth. But after hearing Jonsen's reaction, Leo was curious if his guess was right. "I'm not sure you don't understand, Mr. Jonsen. Is it that after you kill a few people, you don't remember what they did?" Leo asked, insinuating Jonsen. Jonsen then laughed dismissively as he bowed his head briefly. He casually inhaled the cigarette smoke and looked up to exhale. "I just remember how they whimpered begging to stay alive," Jonsen retorted with no pity on his face. Leo's heart warmed up a little. He wondered if his suspicion was correct that Jonsen was involved in the death of his parents. He tried to restrain himself from being provoked by the emotions in hi

    "Mr. Walter, can I talk to you for a moment?" Leo said, stopping Mr. Walter who was talking to some other company investors. Mr. Walter's gaze shifted to Leo. So did several investors who were in front of Mr. Walter. Seeing Leo's presence made them immediately put on expressions of surprise and astonishment. "Oh, Mr. Leo is also at this event?" asked one of the retail company CEOs, Mr. Orphan. Leo gave a brief smile in greeting. "Of course. What's keeping me from coming after Mr. Walter's invitation?" Leo replied with a chuckle. Mr. Orphan nodded his head in understanding. "Do you also intend to invest in Mr. Walter's business innovation? Aren't... you guys business rivals?" Getting that question made Leo flinch for a while. During his silence, he looked at each other with Mr. Walter as if asking how to answer. "I'm still considering it and don't want to tell you yet. Oh, about us being business rivals... just ask Mr. Walter," Leo replied. After Leo's glance fell on him, Mr.

It was a new mission that had appeared two hours ago. Right now, Leo was in the VVIP room of a restaurant with Mr. Walter. Meanwhile, Bram and Hans were waiting outside the room. They had arranged an appointment with Pabo Nerulda-one of the big investors who was also involved in the mafia. "Hello, have you come? Sorry you waited so long for my arrival." A voice from behind made Leo and Mr. Walter look away in unison. Leo saw the figure of Pablo Nerulda walking into the room with a stern yet friendly aura. "Ah, Mr. Pablo. We're just waiting for a moment, after all, it's an honor for us," replied Leo who gave a smile of formality. Pablo

    "The Grand Ocean Restaurant construction project received a $10,000,000 investment from Mr. Pablo Nerulda-an investor and CEO of one of Italy's largest companies." Mr. Holland read the title of the article displayed on the living room's LED screen. Meanwhile, Leo was already seated on the long sofa and did not move his gaze from the LED screen. Now, Mr. Holland was with Leo, Hans, Bram, Jack - Leo's younger brother, and Mrs. Holland. When Leo had just returned from the meeting with Mr. Handrick, there was already Mr. Holland and his family in the living room. "Have you become Mr. Walter's side, Leo?" asked Mr. Holland. Leo briefly looked at Mr. Holland and shook his head. "Of course not, Father. Why should I switch sides to Mr. Walter's side?" asked Leo. Mr. Holland immediately sighed heavily. "Then, if you get the investment money for the Grand Ocean construction project, what about your new business innovation construction project?" he asked. Leo had expected Mr. Holland to w

    "Mr. Jonsen, known in the mafia world as Blanco Scandla Piscasso, is a mobster known for selling illegal alcohol and cocaine narcotics. "He has distributed cocaine narcotics to various countries on several continents, but there are several countries that are the center of his sales, namely Mexico, Italy, Canada, and Los Angeles. His sales profit reached 500 million dollars," Mr. Holland said as he read out the explanation of the information he had gathered. Leo frowned sharply and looked at Mr. Holland in surprise. He didn't expect that Mr. Holland had already found information about Mr. Jonsen. "Where did you get the information about Mr. Jonsen's mafia side?" asked Leo who looked at Mr. Holland curiously. "Did you forget that your father is a CEO who deals with companies overseas?" said Mr. Holland. "I own hotels in Canada and Italy, but I keep it a secret that I own them. I asked a trusted man named Mr. Bjorka to manage the hotel, and while I was monitoring from afar, Mr. Bjo

Mr. Joshua was somewhat taken aback after hearing Ghenna's words. Moreover, the look in Ghenna's eyes that radiated fear also began to imply sharpness. "I don't know why you just so you know, I've also escaped several times, but those people managed to easily track my whereabouts. And when I came back I got even harsher treatment from them," Ghenna replied, almost in tears.

    "I'm not sure they'll be approachable," Bram replied, also wearing a worried expression. "The most important thing is that we defend that land, Bram. We can't let the investors of the Araizona Center Land Residential Property development project fail," Leo tried to reassure. Bram did not answer. But from his expression, he seemed to want to carry out Leo's plan. "If we fail to get the land and the investors have already given us 50 million dollars, the investors won't trust us. Araizona Group Company's reputation will suffer," Leo said, looking at the LED screen seriously. The whole room fell silent. They didn't dare agree, nor did they dare argue. Doubt engulfed them all. Because what they were dealing with now was the DID Cartel-a huge and unbeatable narcotics business network. Mr. Holland was worried about how Leo could survive against the DID Cartel. This was the first time for Leo to face such fierce business competition. "Leo, how can you fight them?" Mr. Holland asked.

    "I think Mr. Walter would have spread it instead of exposing that the alcohol contained methanol," said Leo who was thinking seriously. "There was a case where a mafia gang was smuggling illegal narcotics, but they wrapped it in a different package," Hans said. Leo looked at Hans with both eyebrows furrowed. Out of curiosity, Leo's sitting position spontaneously leaned towards Hans. "Has there ever been a case like that? And how did they end up?" Leo asked. "Their actions were not uncovered for many years, but one of the members turned out to be an undercover private detective team. The private detective team cooperated with police detectives and many parties-I honestly don't know them by heart. So their actions were uncovered after six years," Hans replied. "They needed to wait six years undercover to be exposed?" "No, two years. Six years is the time they did the business," Hans replied. Leo let out a long sigh. "Ah, I must dissuade Mr. Walter before he has t

"Thank you, Mr. Pedro," Leo said. Before Leo could say anything else, Bram suddenly approached him. Bram whispered something very serious to Leo. "Mr. Leo, someone is waiting to see you in the VIP room." Leo's eyebrows furrowed at Bram's words. Leo briefly looked at Bram as if asking who was coming, then Bram replied by shaking his head. "That person asked not to mention his name in front of you," Bram explained. "Should I come there now?" asked Leo. "They seem urgent to talk to you." Leo finally looked at Mr. Pedro and the staff. "I really appreciate your hospitality. Sorry, I have to meet someone who wants to talk to me now. It's an urgent situation," Leo excused himself. It wasn't long before Leo stepped out again with Bram. Followed by two bodyguards who led them to the VIP

You suddenly came up to me and pointed that recording gun so you could corner me, just to ask about that bastard?" Zaves said in a grumbling tone. Leo suddenly frowned when he saw Zaves' reaction. "That bastard?" Leo quoted Zaves' nickname for Mr. Jonsen. "That's right. The bastard who's been scamming people and saying he'll distribute the best alcohol-when it's brand counterfeiting?" Leo couldn't help but laugh mockingly. Somehow hearing Zaves' words gave him goosebumps. "Oh my. You say that as if you're different from him. You're the same," Leo retorted, his tone implying irritation. Zaves immediately protested, "How can I be just like him? He killed many people with his fraudulent acts-" "Can't your fraudulent act of cheating voting data kill people? If you don't become a leader who makes wise policies, then it's th

    'Damn, Mr. Jonsen is quite dangerous with his very strong instincts,' Leo thought with some annoyance. Mr. Jonsen, on the other hand, raised both eyebrows with a suspicious glance. There was an arch of a smile that implied he was satisfied with being able to corner Leo. "I don't know what people like you usually do before negotiating with a third party?" Leo asked. Instantly Mr. Jonsen's faint smile faded. "Oh, or rather, what you do before negotiating with anyone. If you mean, I negotiated with Mr. Pablo personally before the negotiation meeting with Mr. Walter like you did, I didn't do that." Mr. Jonsen immediately frowned sharply and felt offended at Leo's remark. He spontaneously straightened his sitting position and looked at him with a threatening gaze. "I don't understand why you say that," Mr. Jonsen said. "I don't do things like that. Are you doubting my negotiation skills?" "Oh, of course not. The one who just underestimated me is you, Mr. Jonsen. You und

    Mr. Walter was a little taken aback by Leo's words. But a few seconds later, he laughed awkwardly. "No way. How can you think he hates you?" asked Mr. Walter. Leo let out a small hiss and pretended to think even more. His index finger was now tapping his own temple. "I don't want to judge him badly either, Mr. Walter. But, when I spoke with Mr. Jonsen a few minutes ago, I felt that resentment. He didn't seem to accept my presence as a major investor," Leo retorted. Having said that, Leo lifted his face and straightened his gaze to match Mr. Walter's. While focusing his eyes on one point, he read the notification on the system screen.

    On the way, Leo deliberately contacted Bram via video call. Shortly after the video call was picked up by Bram, he watched as the camera panned to Mr. Jonsen who was gathered on the VIP sofa with three other men. Not just the three other men. But also the LCs who accompanied them. All the women on the couch, for some reason, looked like they were very drunk. "Wait, didn't Mr. Jonsen just arrive a few minutes ago?" Leo asked. Hans also took a quick glance at Leo's phone screen. Curiosity was evident on his face, wanting to know what had happened to Mr. Jonsen. "Don't you think it's strange that these women were already very drunk when Mr. Jonsen arrived just a few minutes ago?" Leo asked again. Hans nodded his head. "Yes, it should be. Did they use a very high dose of alcohol, or were the women given something before Mr. Jonsen arrived?" Leo looked very thoughtful after Hans said that. He suddenly felt very curious and wanted to know what was the reason. On the other h
