"Leon, Iris, Snow, you're all here!" Roanne happily ran over when she saw the three of them."Roanne, it must have been hard for you the past few days, "Leon said with a smile."It wasn't. I didn't do much. It's just that, I was bored because all of you haven't been around," Roanne said with a cheeky smile.After they exchanged some pleasantries, Iris could not help but ask, "Roanne, what's been going on with the production of the cosmetics?""Oh, the production has been going quite smoothly. The targets you and Leon set earlier have almost all been reached," Roanne said simply. She then picked up a production report and handed it to Iris."Oh, alright," Iris had a pleased smile on her face after she flipped through it."Leon, we're ready for everything! Now that the cosmetics have already been produced, we just need to hurry up and find a distributor to work with. We have to break into the market in the Southern Region," Iris said after some thought.There were two ways a cosme
"Iris, we shouldn't delay the signing of the contract. I'll go over to the Hughes Group right now. I'll leave the matters that have piled up in the company to you," Leon said."Yes, alright. Go ahead," Iris said with a smile."Snow, let's go!" Leon called out to Snow.Snow's position was his assistant, so he naturally needed to bring Snow along if he went to sign the contract at Hughes Group."Yes, just wait a moment. I'll go print out the contract," Snow said, quickly printing out the company's information and two sets of the contract."Leon, can I go with you?" Roanne asked with some hesitation."Why would you want to go?" Leon was surprised.Snow was his assistant, so it was normal for Snow to go with him. However, Roanne was Iris' assistant, so he did not understand why Roanne would want to come with them."I-I've been quite bored in the company for the past few days. I just wanted to outside with you," Roanne said bashfully while she pulled at her clothes.Ever since Leon
After Gordon returned to his office, there was a knock on his door not too long later. After that, a professional female secretary dressed in back clothes walked in."Miss Lynn, do you need something?" Gordon could not help but ask."Mister Bailey, I got notification from security that there are three young people from Elegante Group here to discuss working with the Hughes Group," Sarah Lynn reported."What? Could they be from the Thompsons?" Gordon quickie stood up in shock.Even though Darius already told him that the Thompsons could be coming to sign the contract, it was an agreement between Yuri and Darius two days ago.Since the Thompsons did not show up for two days, he thought that they might not show up this day as well.Yet, right as Darius left, someone came over to talk about working together.It was just too much of a coincidence. It surprised him quite a bit!"I'm not sure, the man calls himself Leon, the chairman of Elegante Group. I don't know if he's related to
"Snow, it's been a long time! I can't believe I'm meeting you here!" Gordon said in disbelief. His eyes were fixed on Snow, completely ignoring Leon."Snow, do you know this guy?" Leon was shocked to hear that.After that, he looked at Gordon before looking at Snow again. He looked curious, unable to figure out how Snow know the man."I don't know him! He's just a scumbag!" Snow's face paled. She bit down on her lips as her eyes completely frosted over. She slowly regained her calm."A scumbag?" Leon was taken aback, completely confused by Snow's answer."Snow, what happened in the past was all my fault, but I had my difficulties too," Gordon said with a sigh. There was a melancholic look in his eyes.Thanks to his handsome looks, made him look quite attractive."Difficulties? Who are you trying to fool with that?!" Snow said coldly. Her eyes were full of disdain.The person in front of her was no one else but her university classmate, Gordon. He also happened to be her ex-boyf
"Snow, so he's your ex-boyfriend!" Leon realized.He knew about how Snow was hurt romantically before.Listening to the conversation between the two of them, he quickly got the gist of the situation."Snow, who is this guy? Could he be your current boyfriend?" Gordon shot a sharp look at Leon as his expression sank."I-"Leon gaped. Before he could even answer, Snow quickly seized the initiative. "That's right! He's my current boyfriend!" Snow did not even think about it before she quickly grabbed Leon's arm, deliberately acting incredibly close to Leon.She would not be embarrassed!Due to Gordon's betrayal, she was filled with hatred and disgust for Gordon!If Gordon found out that she did not even have a boyfriend, then it would be absolutely shameful!So, she was forced to use Leon to save her face!"What?"Snow's words were like a bomb that almost blasted Leon and ROanne away.Of course, they were not the only ones who were shocked. Gordon was too!Earlier, he was j
"You!"Feeling' Leon's intense gaze, Gordon felt like a sword stabbed into his bones. He could not help but shudder, feeling scared and stiff."Mister Bailey, this is Elegante's information and contract! If you don't have any problems with it, then please sign your name!" Leon said coldly, taking out the document and putting it on Gordon's desk, preparing to act only after he secured the contract."Dream on!" Gordon was furious. He hit Leon's contract away.Even though Darius already told him that the Thompsons could be sending someone over that day, he still knew of Snow's background. She was just an heiress of an insignificant family from Springfield City. There was no way they would be related to the Thompsons, the head of the Southern region!Furthermore, he never heard of Elegante before. He never saw Leon or Roanne in his circles before either!So, he was sure that Leon and the others could not be from the Thompsons!Since that's the case, there was no reason for him to be
"You're the one who doesn't know your place! Didn't you say you'd be able to kill me without even lifting a finger? Let me show you who's the more powerful one between us!" Leon scoffed.Facing Gordon's immense power, he advanced without taking a single step back. With a single finger out, he quickly charged at Gordon's attack with mighty force!"Brat, you do want to die!" Gordon laughed viciously. There was a sharp glint in his eyes.Since Leon was using spiritual energy, he did not feel any true energy fluctuations from Leon at all. He did not think that Leon would be able to stand up to his attack!Furthermore, Leon was meeting his attack with a single finger!It was just suicide!Right after that, he dramatically increased his power, using his full might as he planned on crippling Leon as revenge for Leon slapping him in the face!Yet, before he could even finish his thoughts, something that shocked him happened!Bang!With an intense clash, Leon's finger immediately broke
"What? Dream on!" Gordon scowled at that!He was already sure that Leon and the others were not from the Thompsons, there was no way he would sign the contract!As for kneeling and apologizing to Snow, that was even more impossible!The Hughes were one of the major families in the Southern region. They lost out to the Thompsons in wealth and power, but were practically without equal outside of that!As an in-law of the Hughes, he was an incredibly noble existence!On top of that, Snow was his ex-girlfriend. She came from an insignificant background, so there was no way he would kneel and apologize to Snow!There was no way he could agree with something that would humiliate and damage his reputation like that!"I guess you insist on being stubborn even in the face of death! You asked for this! Since you're not willing to apologize, then you can forget about those legs of yours!" Leon's face turned cold. There was a sharp glint of murder in his eyes. "Brat, don't be so reckless!
