"Brat, do you know who Young Master Javner is? He's the heir of Acme Corp! How dare a piece of trash like you try and go against him?!" Grover finally reacted as well.Suddenly everyone started to talk amongst one another, "So that person is the heir of Acme Corp! Acme Corp is one of the biggest companies among the second-tier families of Springfield City. They are rich and powerful. They're not someone anyone can offend!""That's right. This guy actually offended Wilfred. He's done for…"Everyone talked amongst themselves, and quite a few of them shot Leon looks of pity and sympathy.There were also a lot of them who were thankful that they did not rush forward earlier. Otherwise, they would not have been able to do anything against Wilfred!"Acme Corp?"Leon was taken aback, feeling like the name sounded familiar. After thinking about it, he quickly recalled the name.Janice and Ava were former employees at Acme Corp. He had just met the chairman of Acme Corp, Javner, two days
As he said that, Wilfred took out his phone to make some calls."Crap…"Ariel's expression changed at the sight.Acme Group was quite famous in the business world. She had heard of them before and knew that they were not to be messed with.Even though her family was a noted family of craftsmen, their fortunes were incredibly minuscule compared to the Acme Group.As for Leon. She knew that Leon knew martial arts, but she also knew that Leon was just an orphan without anything.Neither she nor Leon had the ability to clash against Acme Corp!"Leon, let's leave!" Ariel pulled at Leon's arm, wanting to leave before Wilfred's men arrived. That way, they might be able to avoid Wilfred's revenge."Why would we leave?"Leon found it strange.Since they decided to help, he would see things through.The female employee was still there. He could not just leave her alone!"Leon, you might not know this, but Acme Corp is rich and powerful. We can't afford to go against them…""We shoul
"Leon…Leon Wolf!" Mister Fred's eyes almost fell out of his head when he glanced in the direction Wilfred had pointed. He was there when Mister Javner got into the fight with Leon as he had been one of the bodyguards Javner brought along with him. At that time, he had attempted to attack Leon, but even with his Peak Acquired State, Leon had managed to defeat him as easily as ABC. Not only that, but soon after, the Wests sent out another martial artist who was already at the Intermediate Supreme State, but he could not stand a chance against Leon. In the end, Jared was so terrified by Leon that he immediately got on his knees to beg for mercy and did not even hesitate to break his own arm in doing so, which ultimately spared his life. Mister Fred had witnessed all these with his own eyes; thus, he knew better than anyone just how powerful Leon was! He could not believe that out of several billion people in this world, Wilfred had crossed the one man he feared the most. On
"Wilfred, I've only ever met Leon Wolf once, but from my encounter with him, I don't think he's a cruel or heartless person at all. You must get on your knees and apologize to him right now! If you're sincere enough, I'm sure someone as almighty as him will choose to show you mercy…" Donald said, trying to remain as calm as he could, despite the anxiety sweeping across his heart in waves. "Oh…alright." Wilfred hung up the phone, his legs trembling in fear. He had lost all the arrogance and haughtiness that he had flaunted just a few minutes ago. The audience was puzzled by this sight. "That's strange. Why isn't Young Master Javner sending his men after Leon?" "Who knows? Perhaps he has called some powerful government connection and asked him to help get rid of that fellow once and for all!" "Yes, that sounds possible!" Expressions of doubt and curiosity crossed their faces as they tried to guess what Wilfred had done. Most of them were adamant that Wilfred had probably c
"Mister Wolf, I had failed to recognize greatness even if it was placed right in front of me, and I truly apologize for offending you… Please forgive me for my carelessness," Wilfred pleaded. "What's wrong? Didn't you say you wanted to cripple me just now? Why did you change your mind so suddenly?" Leon raised his brows quizzically, but the truth was, he could guess that Wilfred had probably found out about his identity, which led to his 180-degree change in attitude. "I would never dare to do so… It was all just my ego talking, and I never meant any offense. Please forgive me, sir…" Wilfred broke out in nervous sweats upon hearing this. He gritted his teeth and proceeded to slap himself across the face multiple times, desperately trying to prove his sincerity to Leon. The spectators erupted into a flurry of whispers at this. "Who…who is this man? I can't believe Young Master Javner is so intimidated by him that he immediately got on his knees and even slapped himself just to
Leon's tone was cold when he said this. "Thank you, mighty one. We promise that this won't happen a second time…" After hearing this, Wilfred and the rest finally dared to get up. At this point, the backs of their shirts were utterly soaked with cold sweat. Wilfred was the most anxious out of all of them since he had heard from his father that when Jared crossed Leon, not only did he have to get on his knees to beg for mercy, but he even ended up breaking his own arm to compensate. The fact that Leon did not force him to break his own arm and instead chose to forgive him on the spot was a miracle! Unbeknownst to Wilfred, however, Leon had chosen to forgive him simply because he was an ordinary man and not a martial artist. Not only that, but since his apology had arrived early, Leon did not want to use his martial arts expertise as leverage over Wilfred, which was why he had chosen to let them off the hook. "Also, please pay Miss Shirley's salary right now, and since she go
Shirley was very grateful for their aid; she gave them both a bow to express her gratitude. "No need to thank us. It's all in a day's work." Leon smiled. He never expected Shirley to catch up with them just to thank them. "Please, I really want to repay the two of you for your help. I want to buy you lunch tomorrow to thank you for this. Will you be free?" Shirley asked rather sheepishly, her eyes glimmering with anticipation. "There's no need…" Leon shook his head. He could tell that Shirley was a poor but hardworking college student and did not want her to spend her hard-earned money on him. "But…" Shirley was insistent. "Shirley, you don't have to do that. The two of us need to be somewhere now, so we can talk about having lunch in the future," Ariel said, smiling. Shirley's integrity and kindness had touched her, and she could not help feeling fond of this hardworking young girl. "Oh…alright." Shirley was disappointed, to say the least. "Shirley, this is my name car
"Didn't you say you wanted to buy out Elegante Group? Well, if you can say it, you better mean it! Hand over the money, and I'll finally believe you!" Ariel rolled her eyes at him. She was more than familiar with Leon's financial situation, and thus she did not think Leon would be able to cough up 650 million dollars! This was not realistic at all! "I'll try my best, and I'll give you an answer latest by tomorrow." Leon sighed. "Alright, I'll be waiting! Let me tell you this—if you can't come up with the money to buy out Elegante Group, you have to promise me that you'll help me convince Iris to change her mind!" Ariel said slyly. The truth was, she did not have many expectations of Leon being able to buy out the company. Her only wish was that Leon would help her persuade Iris, but whether Leon could successfully convince Iris or not was a set of problems for another day! The two of them left the hotel and returned to their respective homes. Shear Mansion. Leon found Cyn
