"Fail to do so, and we'll make Theodore suffer twice of what Leon and Miss Poole did!" Benedict snorted."Why you!" Walter's expression darkened as he realized that he was rendered powerless."Also, a fair warning. Try harming Leon again, and it won't end that well for you the next time! Southern King, let's go!" Benedict said, before calling out to Vincent and turning to leave with the others."Damn it!" Walter was furious as Benedict and the others left. However, Theodore was held hostage and the Fields could not do anything other than allowing Benedict to leave."Elder, what should we do now?" One of the Fields asked worriedly."What else can we do? Benedict might be asking for money on the surface, but this is just his way of warning us to leave Leon alone!" Walter spat resentfully.Walter knew that money was not Benedict's true intention and that he merely aimed to teach the Fields a lesson. If they dared to attack Leon again, the Shears might do whatever it took to seek rev
Cynthia utilized the Shears' connection to look into the martial artists' background and selected six out of all applicants in the end. Along with Spencer and Stephen, there were a total of eight martial artists and Leon successfully built the foundation for his army.On the other side of the city.Theodore was the future leader of the Fields and Walter could not allow anything to happen to him. In the end, he was forced to compensate Leon and Snow 65 million. In return, Benedict and Vincent released Theodore as promised.Meanwhile, Louisa heard from Iris that Leon and Cynthia were 'together' and immediately tried to confront Leon, but was stopped by Iris.Louisa was never one to give up when stopped by others, so she would have gone to confront Leon in secret, if she was not distracted by the marriage proposal by the Northern King, Harold Lowe.Iris refused to accept the proposal and even threatened to kill herself, but all the Youngs, including Albert and Gilbert, hoped that Iri
After witnessing Leon's capability and seeing how he rescued Janice before, Leanne longed to have Leon as her son-in-law. However, Leon seemed to have completely disappeared from their sights and she was helpless in trying to put Janice and Leon together."Mom, stop it. I'm not going out with Leon," Janice blushed and said."Janice, don't blame me for being nosy, but a man like Leon is a rare gem and you have to catch him while you can, or you won't find another man as great!" Leanne deadpanned."Yeah. I know. I'll try my best," Janice said sheepishly."What? Are you willing to try?" Janice was shocked and could not believe what she heard for a moment.She told her daughter to hold onto Leon a long time ago, but Janice was not in love with Leon at the time and refused to act. However, Janice changed her mind and agreed with her mother.Janice blushed and nodded. "Yeah. I used to see Leon as a good friend and I didn't feel anything for him romantically. But ever since he saved me
Janice was always a rare beauty and with makeup, she looked even more alluring. The short dress outlined the curves of her body and she was wearing a pair of see-through stockings paired with heels.Though Janice was not as attractive as Iris and Cynthia, she was not far from them and was only not as elegant as they were. However, Janice had a gentle, approachable appearance that looked more beautiful as time went by, so she was a beauty that came after the Four Beauties in Springfield City."You look beautiful today, Janice!" Leon said sincerely."Thank you! Come in." She blushed and made way for him to go instead."Leon! Come take a seat!" Leanne was overjoyed and led Leon to the couch enthusiastically, while Leon set the gifts down onto the coffee table.After a brief exchange, Janice started looking at the clock worriedly.She did not expect Leon to visit when she had to head outside for work. She could not give up work, but neither did she want to leave Leon, so she was at a
The car door opened and a beautiful woman in her late twenties came out of the car. She had delicate features with a beauty mark at the corner of her lips; dressed in fashionable outfit, she gave a mature and sharp impression that made it obvious for others that she had to be a businesswoman."Miss Addice!" Janice waved her hand and hurried over.Janice worked for a company called Acme Corp, a famed fashion company in Springfield City. She worked as the sales department manager and the young woman ahead of her was her supervisor, Ava Addice, who worked as the sales director.Janice rose to her current position because Ava appreciated her ability and helped to put her in the manager position. Hence, though Ava was her supervisor at work, the two were close friends in private."Here you are, Janice. And who's this gentleman?" Ava walked over and was slightly shocked to find a man standing next to Janice."Miss Addice, allow me to introduce my friend, Leon Wolf. Leon, this is my boss
"I don't think that's appropriate." Janice was taken by shock."It's fine. Just tell him to stay quiet once the client arrives," Ava said casually.There was another reason behind her approval in letting Leon into the meeting room with them. According to what Ava knew, the person they were about to meet had a reputation of harassing females. If Leon came into the room with them, it might stop the client from doing anything inappropriate."Sure. Thank you, Miss Addice." Janice was overjoyed. She did not want Leon to wait alone outside and what Ava said helped resolve that perfectly.The three entered a luxurious private room in the hotel, where they took their seats to wait for the client.Over half an hour went by and though it was long past the agreed time, the client did not appear."Why isn't the client here yet?" Ava glanced at her watch impatiently and called the client to check on them. However, the client merely asked her to wait a while longer without a proper explanation
"The Westpraise Group only controls twenty percent of the sales channels, so they are hardly comparable to Wick Group. If the Westpraise Group is being unreasonable, why don't you try striking a deal with Wick Group instead?" Leon asked."Well, I don't really know." Janice shook her head.It was the company's board that decided which distributor to work with and as a department manager, Janice did not know much about the internal operations."Let me explain! The fashion line we produce can be considered semi-luxury, while Wick Group focuses on high-end brands and products. I've represented our company in the past to speak with someone from Wick Group in the past, but they didn't see a point in working with us and rejected me straight away," Ava sighed.Leon tapped himself on the forehead and muttered, "I see! I almost forgot about that!"Elegante Group was also forced to work with Westpraise Group because its brand did not fulfill Wick Group's requirement. Leon was lucky to encoun
The Wicks were one of the most powerful families in all of Springfield City with a total assets of over billions. Jensen, as the future leader of his family, was almost as mighty as a god to people in Springfield City and could not possibly know an ordinary man like Leon in Ava's point of view, so she could not bring herself to believe what Leon said."I'm not joking. I meant it-" Leon tried to explain himself, but was immediately interrupted by Ava."Enough! I don't want to hear any more of your lies! Whether you meant what you said or not, Wick Group focuses on working with high-end brands and our brand does not fit into that category, so they will never work with us!" Ava dismissed him.She had a great first impression on Leon at first, thinking that a man who won Janice's heart would be someone reliable, yet Leon bragged about being friends with powerful figures of the city and Ava felt nothing but disgust for him."It's fine if you don't want to believe me." Leon scowled in an
