"It's fine! Mister Wolf, my grandpa, and the elders have offended you. Consider this pharmaceutical firm a gift from us as an apology. You don't have to pay me back," Hugo smiled. Though they spent a fortune on this pharmaceutical firm, he successfully obtained a partnership with Cynthion Group. This was more than enough. To make up for the Morrisons' mistakes and show how sincere they were, he intended to offer the company as a gift. "No way! I didn't do anything to deserve this. The Morrisons acquired this firm for Cynthion Group and this saves me a lot of time and effort. I'm already thankful for that. I can't just let the Morrisons pay for it!" Leon shook his head. There were appropriate ways to make profits. This was a large pharmaceutical firm that would cost hundreds of millions. As a friend, he could accept a gift from Hugo that cost a few million, but not a firm that cost this much. He could not possibly accept something so expensive and allow the Morrisons to
"Mister Wolf, here's the thing; You've just taken over this company and may not know much about it. If you want to transform it into a branch for Cynthion Group, you'll need quite a lot of time. These two are talented individuals and capable. If it's okay with you, I can arrange for them to help with managing all related matters so that your branch can be up and running as soon as possible," Leon explained. "I see!" Realization dawned on Leon. Now that he reached an agreement with the Morrisons, his priority was to establish the branch and produce alchemical pills as soon as possible. However, the need for alchemical pills was high and this would take him a lot of time and effort. He was only one person and may not be able to manage this branch or transform this pharmaceutical firm into a branch for Cynthion Group. Hugo was considerate enough to consider his struggles and even arranged for two talented individuals to manage the new branch. This worked perfectly for Leon and
"What? Mister Wolf, are you serious? Are you willing to increase the portion twenty-five percent?" Hugo was overjoyed. Though it was just an increase of five percent, it was a great fortune when it came from a highly profitable firm like Cynthion Group. This would at least guarantee the Morrisons hundreds of millions each year or even more. Caleb and the elders were reluctant to work with Cynthion Group because they wanted to benefit more. After all the tricks they played, they failed and almost cost them the opportunity to partner with Cynthion Group. Yet, Leon was now willing to increase their portion to twenty-five percent and this caught Hugo by surprise. Instantly, he was both shocked and pleasantly surprised. "Of course, I'm serious!" Leon nodded. Profit was a great motivator for anyone. He knew that the profit division he offered was quite low and the Morrisons were aiming to gain more. This was normal and he could empathize. However, a line had to be drawn
After the call was connected, Leon had a brief conversation with Jensen. He already promised to visit the Dagleshs' mansion and set the time for his visit at noon. However, Renee was dragging him around throughout the morning and the time he spent with Hugo took quite a lot of time, so he was not able to head to the Dagleshs' mansion. Jensen waited for a long time and Leon was nowhere to be seen, so he decided to call and check on Leon. Leon merely agreed to visit because he preferred to work with the Dagleshs at the time and wanted to discuss with Elder Dagleshs in private. The situation changed and since he already reached an agreement with the Morrisons, there was no reason for him to visit the Dagleshs' mansion. Still, the Dagleshs were quite sincere and Leon already made a promise, so it would be rude of him to change his mind and not visit them. With that in mind, he decided to visit the Dagleshs and inform them about his agreement with the Morrisons. At the very
"Grandpa, this Leon guy is so rude. He promised to come at noon and it's way past noon now, yet he's nowhere to be seen." Candice was growing impatient. As the eldest daughter of the Dagleshs, she had a high status and breathtaking beauty, which meant that she had many pursuers. It was always others who waited for her and fawned over her, so she never waited for someone else. Yet, she was now waiting for a strange man alongside Elder Daglesh and the others. Because of that, she was quite upset with Leon. "Candice, be patient. I've already called Mister Wolf and he is coming our way now. He should be here in no time," Jensen said. "He's only departing now? What was he doing just now?" Candice grew even angrier. She hated men who could not keep their promises and since Leon was not punctual, her first impression of him was horrible. If Elder Daglesh and Jensen did not value Leon that much, she would have left a long time ago instead of waiting for such a rude man. "Maybe
"Grandpa, Mister Wolf should be here soon. I'll go welcome him outside!" Jensen changed the subject. "Um, forget it. I'll welcome Mister Wolf myself!" Elder Daglesh said thoughtfully. He valued this opportunity to work with Cynthion Group. On top of that, Leon was a young martial artist who managed to reach the Almighty State. With that being said, the sky was the limit for Leon and his strength granted him a status that rivaled Elder Daglesh. To show how much they valued the opportunity, Elder Daglesh decided to receive Leon in person. Given his status in the family, the others would have to follow. Candice was reluctant to do so, but could only follow Elder Daglesh outside to welcome Leon. With that, the group left the hall and stepped outside the mansion. ...At the gate of the Dagleshs' mansion, Leon arrived at the address Jensen provided to find the Dagleshs waiting. After getting out of the car, Leon strode toward the Dagleshs."Welcome, Mister Wolf," Elder Dag
"Mister Wolf, what is it? Is there something you'd like to say?" Elder Daglesh asked in confusion. "Well," With a troubled expression, Leon fell into silence. He knew that the Dagleshs wanted to work with Cynthion group and he accepted the Dagleshs' invitation because he intended to work with them. However, he changed his mind at the last moment and this must have been cruel to the Dagleshs. Still, he had to inform Elder Daglesh of the truth at one point because he had no other option. With that thought in mind, he stopped hesitating. "Elder Daglesh, about the partnership with Cynthion Group, I'm sorry to inform you that I've reached an agreement with Mister Hugo. Hence, I won't be able to work with the Dagleshs. Please forgive me," he sighed. He only needed to work with one family to establish Cynthion Group's branch in the western region and since he decided to work with the Morrisons, he could not partner with the Dagleshs. Apart from Cynthion Group, Elegante Group was
"Leon Wolf, right? You promised to be our guest here, so how can you break your promise and decide to work with the Morrisons instead? That's so despicable of you!" Candice snapped out of it and challenged angrily. She felt the same as the others. From her perspective, Leon chose the Dagleshs as his partners by accepting their invitation. At the very least, the Dagleshs were supposed to be at an advantage. However, Leon reached an agreement with the Morrisons behind their backs. Not only would this be viewed as him toying with the Dagleshs, but it was also despicable of him to break his words. Without waiting for Elder Daglesh to say anything, she lost control and snapped at Leon. She now saw Leon as a despicable man who would shamelessly break his promise. "That's enough! Candice, how can you be so rude? Mister Wolf's a guest here. How can you disrespect him like that? Apologize to him right now!" Elder Daglesh's expression darkened. Though he was disappointed and di
