However, due to his mistakes, he ruined a beautiful relationship with his granddaughter. He did blame himself quite a bit for it. It was just a pity that they were already past the point of any return!"I-" Iris felt even sad.She knew very well that Elder Young and Gilbert both held a lot of responsibility for what happened.However, they were still her family. Her break up with Leonw was already set in stone, what was the point of blaming them?Leon would no longer return to her side!"Please, it's just a man! Iris, you're still the top of the four beauties of Springfield City and the heiress of the Youngs. Do you have to be so sad for a man? You'd be laughed at if word got out!"At that moment, a laugh of disdain was heard as Daisy walked inside.Daisy already heard about Iris planning on getting back together with Leon from Gilbert.Seeing how sad Iris was, she did not even need to guess to know that Leon rejected Iris!It was amazing news for her. The smile on her face
Of course, if she was able to believe in Leon so unconditionally from the start, they would not have broken up!"It's up to you if you want to believe it or not, but I won't say any more!" Daisy smiled in disdain.She just wanted to deliberately instigate Iris a little. Leon was not willing to get back together with Iris anyway, so it was not important if Iris believed in it or not!Just as Iris and Daisy were staring at each other, a frantic set of footsteps were heard. Randy quickly walked inside."Elder, the Northern King is here with his men. He says he has something very important he wants to meet you for," Randy said."The Northern King, Harold Lowe? The Youngs have never had many dealings with him before, so why is he here?" Elder Young and Gilbert were shocked."Randy, bring him in," Elder Young said, wanting to see what Harold's goal was. "Yes," Randy answered before he left.Iris was in an incredibly bad mood. She was in no condition to continue arguing with Daisy.
The greatest forces in Springfield City were the four families, but the two Kings were no slouches! In the past, political marriages were not uncommon between major families. However, they were usually to forge alliances, and both sides were equal.Yet, Harold mentioned being subordinate to the Youngs. They were willing to work under the Youngs.It was like how the Four Tigers served under the two Kings!It was obvious how much Harold was offering for the marriage!"Northern King, are you joking? This isn't funny at all!" Elder Young said."I'm not joking. Everything I said is serious!" Harold said sincerely."But why? You're one of the top figures in Springfield City. This isn't like you at all!" Elder Young was full of disbelief.Everyone knew that the two Kings stood at the top of the underworld. They were both very powerful figures!He did not think that Harold would join the Youngs just like that. It did not seem real!If he trusted Harold so easily, then all his experi
Harold continued to add oil to the fire."But-" Elder Young was still hesitant.He was the head of the Youngs, there was no way he did not know the threat they posed!However, Leon saved his life before. He already wrongly accused Leon once. If he targeted Leon again, it would be completely immoral!"Elder Young, don't worry. With the Dragon Corps around, there's no way we can kill Leon and the Shears! I just think that the Youngs will grow much stronger after I join you, and you'll stand at the top of the four families!"Then, you'll be able to summon up the other families to work together and destroy Cynthion Group or even threaten Leon to split the profits. That would be enough! We can let Leon and the Shears monopolize everything no matter what!" Harold advised, but there was a cold glint in his eyes.His target was not as simple as just Leon!"Dad, I think the Northern King is right! We can't just let Leon and the Shears grow. Otherwise, our profits might suffer. We might e
"Iris, the Northern King is right. No matter how you look at it, Jacob is the best choice!" Gilbert hurriedly said.The four great families were always competitors. None of them ever regarded the other highly, so there were never any marriages between them.Other than the four great families, the strongest forces in Springfield City were the two Kings. The Northern King was even stronger than the Southern King!Both Theodore and Anson were known playboys as well. They were not very reliable.However, Jacob was different. He never had a bad reputation, and he was seen as a better man than Theodore and Jacob.In the end, in terms of political marriages for the Youngs, Jacob was the best choice in Springfield City."Iris, even if you have no feelings for Jacob right now, feelings can be slowly built up. I think you can just get engaged to him for a moment, and the two of you can try dating for a bit," Elder Young said in a low voice. He felt like Jacob was a decent man too.When it
Elder Young tried very hard to convince Iris."That's right! Iris, both your grandfather and I just want the best for me!" Gilbert nodded."The best for me? That's what you always say! If you did want the best for me, Leon and I wouldn't be in this state!" Iris started to cry from her frustration. Her tears constantly flowed out.At that moment, all the sadness she suppressed in her heart exploded!"You had no evidence back then, but you forcibly split me and Leon apart! Now, for the sake of the family, you're planning on sacrificing me, giving me to a man I don't love! Have you ever thought about how I feel?" Iris get sadder as she spoke. She could do nothing to stop the tears from falling down her face.She thought that her grandfather loved her, and would not use her marriage for the sake of profit!Yet, she was blinded. She was constantly disappointed by her grandfather!"Iris, that's not what I mean. I'm not planning on sacrificing you for profit. I just want you to start a
It was a high-end brand, and they had all sorts of different clothes for men and women inside. Each one of them was quite expensive.In the men's clothing area."Leon, why don't you try this suit on?" Snow had a glint in her eyes as she took out a blue suit for Leon."Aren't you here to buy clothes? Why are you making me try on something for a man? Are you planning on buying something for Fane?" Leon was surprised. He thought that Snow probably asked him to try it on because she wanted to buy it for Fane."No, I'm planning on buying something for you!" Snow said."Buying something for me? Why would you do that for no reason?" Leon was shocked."You helped me teach Jacob a lesson, then you saved my mother. I plan on buying a few clothes to thank you," Snow said with a smile."There's no need, it wasn't anything much," Leon tried to refuse."What do you mean by that? You've done so much for our family, and you refused my father's reward back then. I just want to buy you a few clo
With how suddenly Leopard called him, he thought it was because Lily's family was in trouble!"No, it's a personal problem," Leopard said apprehensively.Even though Leon and Leopard already resolved their problems, the two of them were not that friendly with each other. He did not know if Leon would help him, so he was not confident at all."Oh, alright. Let me know your location. I'll go over right now."Leon was much more relaxed when he found out that it was not lily's family.Of course, since Leopard agreed to look after Lily's family, he had no reason to refuse this request. He planned on going over to see what the matter was."Thank you, Mister Wolf,"Leopard was elated as he gave Leon the address.After hanging up, Leon said to Snow, "Snow, I have something I need to get done right now. Why don't I send you home?""What is it? Will it be fun? Let me go with you."Snow said with a smile.Snow vaguely caught some parts of the conversation earlier, and it piqued her int
