"Sir, he can't get far. Once the bouquet ends, we can deal with him later," One of the bodyguards whispered into Felton's ear. "Yeah, you're right," Felton agreed with the bodyguard. Leon was merely a lowly scum and he had plenty of chance to deal with Leon after the bouquet. There was no hurry to it. "Mister Fermer, welcome. The bouquet's about to start. Please end this out of respect for me," Jaxon came forward. As the host, he did not want this conflict to affect the bouquet and preferred if the situation could be resolved. "I'll do so out of respect for you, then!" Felton nodded and shot a sharp glance at Leon, scoffing. "Kid, consider yourself lucky. I'll let you off the hook this time since Mister Daglesh and Mister Feaks asked. If this happens again, you won't get away so easily!" "Maybe," Leon snorted casually. He came to this bouquet to purchase rare herbs, not to fight. Since Renee was not his girlfriend, he did not see others as rivals either. Felton alread
Wavering under Leon's sharp gaze, Joshua muttered, "I don't know what you mean, Mister Wolf." Though he was certain that Leon came from a humble background, Leon's gaze still sent chills down his spine and made him feel uneasy. "You better not know what I mean!" Loen scoffed. He could guess what Joshua was plotting, but it was merely speculation. Aside from that, Joshua was Ariella's boyfriend and Loen had a good impression on Ariella. Out of respect for Renee and Ariella, he decided to let this slide. "Damn this kid! How arrogant!" Joshua relaxed once Leon looked away, then snapped out of it. Leon's status could not hold a candle to his. On top of that, he was a capable martial artist, so he had nothing to fear from Leon. At this moment, he realized how cowardly his reaction earlier was. Instantly, he was filled with frustration, but it was too late. Just then, the others' attention was diverted back to the bouquet and they all urged Jaxon, "Alright, Mister Feaks. Ju
"So there are spiritual herbs. They aren't even that expensive," After reading the details and prices for the herbs, Leon nodded with satisfaction. He only came to this bouquet because Renee mentioned they would be selling spiritual herbs, since that was true, his trip was not in vain. Also, he once spent 86 million on a Snow Lotus that grew for five hundred years back in Seacove City. Meanwhile, the Panax that grew for five hundred years here in this bouquet only cost around 30 million. The ordinary spiritual herbs, only cost around 43 million each, which was hardly a huge difference from the price for the Panax. These prices were not expensive and did not exceed his expectations. "Two wild Panax that grew for five hundred years and three spiritual herbs, huh?" Just as Leon contemplated, the others focused mostly on the two wild Panax that grew for five hundred years and three spiritual herbs. Though rare herbs could help martial artists with their training, herbs that o
"Mister Wolf, don't mess with us! These herbs should add up to at least 287 million. A vice president like you can't possibly afford it." Josua was the first to snap out of it. He sneered and glanced at Leon in contempt. Apart from Renee, he and Ariella were the first people to know Leon and they knew about Leon's background. According to what he knew, Leon was just a vice president from a small business in the southern region and was not even a descendant of influential families. With that in mind, he assumed that Leon might not even possess 3 million, let alone hundreds of millions. Yet, Leon claimed that he wanted to purchase all fifteen herbs. This was practically impossible and he refused to believe Leon could accomplish it."That's right!" "Kid, I'm warning you. Suppose you can't afford the herbs, scram. Don't cause trouble here! If you keep this up, we will show you no mercy." ... Realization dawned on the others and they all turned to glare at Leon. They knew
"Who says I can't afford them?" Leon scoffed and was about to continue when Jaxon came down from the stage. "Mister Wolf, you might not be an expert in herbs. There are different types of herbs with different effects. Even if you buy all fifteen of them, they won't all be useful to you. These herbs that have grown for three hundred years work great. If you like them, you can buy one and try how it works on you first," Jaxon said. Though he did not think someone of Leon's status could afford the herbs, he could not insult Leon like the others as he was the host. Moreover, Leon was Renee's boyfriend and with her help, Leon should be able to purchase a three-hundred-year-old herb even if he could not afford the other ones that cost tens of millions. Hence, he recommended the cheaper herbs to Leon and gave him an excuse to give up. So long as Leon accepted it, he would not embarrass himself and Renee. "It's fine. Mister Feaks, I'm interested in them all. Please pack them and calcul
"Yeah, Mister Fermer is right!" "These herbs are really expensive and add up to about 287 million. Not many people here can afford them!" "Kid, if you keep causing trouble, we won't spare you!" ... The others agreed with Felton's view. Though they were all from wealthy families with a net worth of thousands of millions, their fortune were mainly in the form of properties. Even higher-status elites like Felton and Renee would struggle to gather such a big fund, not to mention a vice president like Leon. They all assumed Leon was trying to cause trouble because that seemed to be the only possibility. "Just because you can't afford it, doesn't mean I can't! Mister Feaks, just run the card!" Leon scoffed. He saw no point in arguing about a fact. All they needed was to run his card to find out if he had enough funds, so he did not bother to argue with the others. "Why you! How stubborn!" ... The others were all enraged by Leon's arrogance and glared at him, thinking
"What!" Jaxon's jaw dropped when he received the money. He did not expect Leon to pay 287 million in his wildest dream and this caught him by surprise. He froze in place, unable to react. "Mister Feaks, what's going on? This kid doesn't have money, does he? I knew that he was just bluffing. Now that his cover has been blown, let's see what he has to say for himself!" Felton sneered and narrowed his eyes maliciously. He already reached an agreement with Mister Daglesh and the others. If Leon failed to pay, they would not stop him from dealing with Leon any longer. Seeing as Jaxon was stunned, Felton assumed that it was because Leon did not have enough money in the card. Not showing mercy, he waved his arm, ready to order his guards to capture Leon. However, the reality was cruel. Before he could place the order, what happened next shook him to his core. "No, Mister Fermers! I've received 287 million and there is more than enough funds in Mister Wolf's card!" Jaxon sn
"How could this happen?" Contrary to Renee and Ariella's reaction, Joshua was utterly stunned. He already learned from Renee that Leon was just the company's vice president. With such a low status, he could not understand how Leon managed to gather such a large amount of money. It was unbelievable and he would have never believed it to be real if he did not see it himself. "Damn it! How did that kid do this?" Felton clenched his fists, his expression darkened. He was just imagining how he could teach Leon a lesson once he failed to pay 287 million. To his surprise, he was wrong. Thinking back to how he mocked Leon and discussed with others how they would teach Leon a lesson, he felt like a fool. Instantly, he was so embarrassed that he wished he could hide. Naturally, he was not the only one. The others were all ashamed of their arrogance and mockery. "Mister Fermer, didn't you question if I can afford these herbs? I've already paid. What else do you have to say?" Leo
