"Whether I can find another high-paying job is not your concern!" Ava snorted. Despite what she said, she knew that it had taken her incredible hard work to finally rise to the position of sales director after working for over six years in Acme Group. If she left the company, it would be extremely difficult for her to find a job with an equal offer and she might even have to start over.It was a hard price to pay."You both should know that since you've secured the contract with Wick Group, you are now the heroes of the company and I will definitely reward you. Miss Addice, if you agree to stay, I will assign you as our Region Manager and your pay will double! As for Miss Lynch, you will take over Miss Addice original position as the new sales director! Do you still want to quit now?" Mister Javner said calmly.Both Ava and Janice hesitated as they felt their determination wavering. Though it had been humiliating to be slapped across the face, it would be a lie for Ava to say that she
"As for salary, I can offer you forty-five thousand a year without counting other incentives and benefits!""What? Forty-five thousand? Leon, are you joking? When did you start your own company? I didn't even know about it!" Janice gasped in shock."It's kind of a long story. I will tell you all about it later. You just need to trust me!"Janice had helped him on numerous occasions back in university and he had always been grateful.Since he had found a certain extent of success in Springfield City, he knew that it was time to repay the ones who had helped him in the past. Offering Janice a job with forty-five annual income was partially his effort in repaying her, but was also done out of consideration for Cynthia, who often had to take care of everything in Cynthion Group.Janice was one of his most trusted friends and Leon would love to make Janice someone who could be of assistance to Cynthia. It was an idea that happened upon Leon at that very moment.Janice hesitated for a moment
"How dare you try to take my employees? Do you have a death wish?!" Mister Javner glared daggers at Leon, desperately wishing he could cut Leon up into pieces."You are one with a death wish! Old twat, you have one chance to get down on your knees to apologize to Miss Addice. If she forgives you, I might consider letting you go! Refuse, and you will suffer for what you did!" Leon narrowed his eyes maliciously.He had been the reason why Ava was slapped and since Ava had chosen to leave Acme Group to join Cynthion Group, he had to seek justice on her behalf."You want me to kneel?! Who do you think you are?!" Furious, Mister Javner waved his hand and commanded his bodyguards, "teach this kid a lesson so that he learns his place! Also, grab that contract from Ava. Those two can go anywhere they want, but the contract stays!"Since Janice and Ava had represented Acme Group in signing the contract with Wick Group, he could still proceed with the partnership with Wick Group once he obtained
He had never expected his bodyguards to be defeated by Leon within seconds and would have never believed it had he not seen it with his own eyes."Woah!" Ava gasped.Apart from the minor conflict between Mister Lynch and Leon, this was the first time she saw Leon in action and shocked when she realized that he could easily defeat two professional bodyguards. She had thought that Leon was a poor man with nothing but a motorcycle, but to her bewilderment, not only did Leon know Jensen, he was a skilled martial artist as well.Ava finally realized that she had been completely wrong about Leon and was instantly filled with curiosity as she wondered who he truly was."Old twat, it's your turn now!" Leon sneered and grabbed the contract from Ava's hand, before walking toward Mister Javner."Wh-what do you want? I'm warning you! Don't come any closer!" Terrified, Mister Javner backed away and fell onto the ground."Don't you want the contract? I have it now, so you can come take it if you can
"You should have done this right from the start! You just won't give up until I bash you about, huh?" Leon sneered in contempt.Terrified of Leon, Mister Javner did not dare to let his resentment show."Old twat, this is your last chance to apologize to Miss Addice!" Leon said."Yes. Yes..." Mister Javner crawled toward Ava and begged. "Miss Addice, I was wrong. I apologize. Please have mercy on me and forgive me...""I-" Ava was stunned. She knew that Mister Javner considered himself her superior and did not expect to get an apology from him, yet Leon had sought justice on her behalf. Not only had Mister Javner apologized to her, he had kneeled as well, and Ava felt excited that the humiliation she felt was returned to Mister Javner."It's fine. Get up..." Ava said while looking at Leon with gratitude."Alright. You can leave now!" Leon scoffed."Okay. Okay." Relieved, Mister Javner stood and ran. As soon as he ran out, he bumped into a young man dressed in splendid clothing. The youn
He believed that, with Jared's skills, defeating Leon would not be difficult at all! He even prayed silently that Jared would help him cripple Leon. Otherwise, it would not be enough to quell his hatred!"Crap, Mister Lynch brought the Wests over for revenge!"At that moment, both Ava and Janice's expressions changed, recognizing Jared and the others. Ava in particular regularly had dealings with Westpraise. She had seen Jared a few times, and knew who Jared was. Jared was definitely not someone a regular person could mess around with!"We're done for now. Leon, I told you to leave quickly just now, but you refused to listen! Now the Wests are here. We won't even be able to run away now!" Ava's expression soured. She had already guessed before that Lynch would not just leave things as they were, but she never would have dreamed that even Jared West had been asked over.Jared was someone at a similar level with Jenson, and Westpraise had always been business rivals with the Wick G
"With just you? What a joke!" Leon sniffed in disdain."Brat, how dare you act so arrogantly in front of me?!" Jared's face turned cold as he looked at Leon with an even fiercer expression."What? Mister West, are you insisting on standing up for him?" Leon looked at Jared."Of course, a master needs to look after his dogs! Mister Lynch belongs to Westpraise. Injuring him means you're making an enemy out of the Wests! I'll definitely seek justice for him today!" Jared said coldly and arrogantly."Mister West is right," Mister Lynch agreed. Even though he had been compared to a dog, he did not look unhappy about it at all. Instead, there was a pleased smile on his face."Mister West, Mister Lynch used the excuse of a business meeting and tried to harass my friend! The fact that I just broke his arm was already being respectful to the Wests! If you want to talk it out, I don't mind! However, if you're trying to throw around your family's power, then you're barking up the wrong tree!
Leon was so furious he started to laugh from the anger. Even though he did not want to make an enemy out of the Wests for no reason, Jared had really crossed the line. He would not let himself get trampled over like that. He was not even afraid of the Fields or the Lowes, why would he be afraid of the Wests?"Brat, you asked for it! Since you want to die, I'll grant you your wish!"Jared sneered before he motioned for the young man behind him. "Dick, help me teach this brat a lesson. Teach him the consequences of crossing the Wests!""Yes." Dick acknowledged before he stepped out of the crowd."Brat, tell me. How do you want to die?" Dick looked at Leon coldly. He had a very impressive aura around him. It was obvious he was a good martial artist."With just you? Dream on!" Leon scoffed. Other than Ruth, no one had been able to break through to the realm of Supreme Master with just their own strength within the younger generation of Springfield City.Dick was only in his thirties.
