Ralph and Rocco gasped and roared.Seeing how Jacob was at Leon's mercy, both of them charged toward Leon with all their might in an attempt to lure Leon away."Good" Leon sneered.Since Ralph and Rocco were moving around rapidly earlier, he could not defeat them for the time being, so it was ideal that the two were heading toward him in order to save Jacob.Leon turned swiftly and launched the Double Attack at Ralph and Rocco."Baam!"Ralph and Rocco could no longer fend off Leon's power and backed away in hope to protect themselves from the force that oozed from Leon's body. However, the power of the Double Attack radiated toward them wave after wave and though they managed to fend off the first wave, they were both sent flying in face of the second wave and collapsed onto the ground, completely unable to move."Ariel, are you okay?" Leon turned to Ariel in concern."I'm fine," Ariel tapped herself on the chest in relief and was instantly over the moon when she saw the concer
"Apologize!" Leon said as he took a step back.Relieved, Jacob crawled up and kneeled before Leon. "Leon, I was wrong for insulting you. I apologize," Jacob said with a more sincere tone as he suppressed his anger."Also, apologize to Ariel!" Leon commanded."I'm sorry, Miss Summers," Jacob muttered.Both Ashwin and Mister Mabre gaped at the sight before their eyes.As the son of the Northern King and an heir of the Lowes, Jacob was on the very top of the entire Springfield community, yet he was on his knees pleading for forgiveness before Leon.Stunned, they finally realized why Leon was referred to as the best of his generation."You should've done this right from the beginning, and you just won't do so until you are beaten!" Leon shot Jacob a look of contempt. He thought that Jacob would have stronger will than this and was disappointed."Yes, Leon, can I go now?" Jacob smiled sheepishly, determined to tear Leon into shreds the next time he saw Leon."Hang on! There's somet
However, he could not forgive Ashwin for betraying Iris over his own agenda."Warren, break his legs!" Jacob ordered mercilessly.Though Ashwin started working for him, he was merely a subordinate and Jacob would never hesitate to sacrifice Ashwin if that meant he would be saved."Mister Lowe," Ashwin gasped at Jacob.He was devoted to Jacob and did not expect Jacob to sell him out without hesitation.Devastated, Ashwin regretted his action, but it was all too late."Snap! Snap!"Warren stomped on both Ashwin's knees under Jacob's command."Ah!!!" Ashwin wailed as excruciating pain shot up his legs and he came close to fainting.Mister Mabre, who witnessed the suffering of Ashwin, shivered and felt his blood running cold."Mi- Mister Wolf, I didn't mean to offend you. Please forgive me," Mister Mabre kneeled and pleaded out of fear that Leon might punish him next.Fortunately, Mister Mabre was always Jacob's subordinate and did not betray anyone, so Leon did not intend on pu
Ariel did not want to give up, but was interrupted by Leon before she could say anything."That's enough! The only thing I can do for her right now is to buy the Elegante Group for her. Ariel, please don't tell her about this, or she might think that I'm after the Youngs or something!" Leon smiled bitterly.He was certain that if the Youngs found out about him purchasing Elegante Group, they would suspect his motive. Though he only did so to help Iris, he felt pathetic that he had to stay in the dark.However, his feelings for Iris were so deep that he could not stand idly by while she suffered, so he could only attempt to help without her knowing so that he would not come to regret it in the future."Okay," Ariel nodded, "I won't tell Iris.""Also, warn Iris that the venture capital company that's targeting Young Group might be run by the Lowes. Tell her to be careful not to fall for the Northern King's trap!" Leon deadpannedHe knew that the Youngs would never believe him and c
"Once we have Elegante Group, we can strike the Youngs down!" Daisy smiled in relief."Yeah. I've been waiting for so long! Once we take control of the Youngs and Young Group, I'll be the king of Springfield City!" Harold said excitedly.He burst out laughing as though he already took over Springfield City, when he heard footsteps approaching.Shortly after, Jacob stumbled into the living room and Harold was shocked by the state he was in."Jacob, what happened to you? Have you acquired Elegante Group?" Harold stood from the couch, an ominous feeling taking over him."Bad news, Dad! My plan to acquire Elegante Group has been destroyed by Leon Wolf," Jacob blurted out in frustration."What?! How's Leon Wolf related to this?" Though Harold had a feeling that something happened, he was stunned by the mention of Leon and could not understand how Leon was involved in this."Here's what happened," Jacob explained gloomily."Leon Wolf! How dare he destroy our plans time and time again
Iris had only duped her into thinking so."Is that correct? Perhaps Leon is trying to cheat so he can date both Cynthia and Iris at the same time," Jacob speculated.Although obtaining either Iris or Cynthia would have been incredible, Jacob knew that if he were Leon, he would do whatever it took to obtain both women.But he couldn't tell if that was what Leon was thinking."Enough! Do you honestly believe that's possible?" Harold gave Jacob an irritated look.He was attempting to figure out what Leon was thinking, but not only did Jacob fail to assist, but his perspective was completely unrealistic.Harold's face darkened as he became concerned.Daisy shared her thoughts and gave Jacob an odd look.Iris and Cynthia were both incredible beauties, and anyone who was fortunate enough to obtain one of them should be happy; if Leon tried to date both women at the same time, he would only suffer in the end."Well, I'm just speculating. Just forget about it." Despite his beliefs, Ja
...Meanwhile, in Elegante Group.Iris was informed that Ariel sold the company and hurried to the office in hope to proceed with the paperwork for handover.As soon as she arrived into the office, she spotted Ariel."Ariel, where's Ashwin? He called and told me that he contacted the buyer and was about to sign the contract, so why are you in charge of this all of a sudden?" Iris asked in confusion."Well, the buyer Mister Mercer found an offer too low of a price! My buyer's willing to acquire Elegante Group for 780 million, so Mister Mercer has handed everything over to me!" Ariel said, not mentioning the fact that she and Leon practically robbed the deal out of Ashwin's hands.Since Ashwin betrayed Iris for Jacob and was rendered disabled by Jacob's men, she was not concerned at all that Ashwin would tell Iris the truth."Are you saying that you sold Elegante Group at 780 million?" Iris gasped in disbelief.Elegante Group's market value was at 650 million and that was the pri
"Young Group is deep in mud right now, I have no other choice but to sell Elegante Group." Iris sighed in resignation."O- Okay, then," Knowing that Iris's mind was set, Ariel proceeded to say, "Iris, there's something that I need to remind you. The Young Group is in a crisis now probably because of the Lowes. You and your family need to be careful!""Ariel, are you mistaken? According to what I know, the Lowes have nothing to do with this at all. How can they be involved?" Iris was confused as to what prompted Ariel to say such a thing."I'm not mistaken and I personally think that they are vicious people who won't let this chance go! They might not look like they participate, but who knows what they are doing in the dark? Nonetheless, just watch out!" Ariel said.Both Ariel and Leon witnessed how Jacob bribed Ashwin into selling him to Elegante Group with a price lower than market value. However, since Leon was involved and Ariel did not have any proof, she could only warn Iris.
