Chapter 71

After ending the call, Matthias approached Joseph, towering over him with a murderous gaze."Any last words?"Joseph's heart raced with fear. He was intimidated by Matthias' cold gaze, but he quickly regained his composure."You can't kill me. If you do, the Griffin family and Victor won't let you get away with it!""I won't kill you. That's just going to dirty my hands," Matthias said coldly.Matthias was brimming with murderous intent and needed to release his rage. However, he did not want Leona to suffer anymore and wanted to resolve the issue once and for all.A few minutes later, Alpha arrived with a pale-faced Victor, followed by an anxious middle-aged man."Mr. Veltroni! Tobias! Save me! Kill this man!" Joseph shouted desperately when he saw the familiar figures.Then, he glared at Matthias and said through gritted teeth, "You're done! With Mr. Veltroni and Tobias here, it's over for you! You'll pay for everything you've done!"Yet, before Joseph could finish his threa

Joseph would have sold everything he owned to change the past if there were a time machine.Unfortunately, it was only wishful thinking, and too late for regret."Mr. Lowell! Mr. Lowell! Please spare me! I was blind and acted out of bounds. I swear I'll never do this again!" Joseph pleaded, his forehead smeared with blood from banging it repeatedly.Matthias stared at Joseph, silent and unmoved.The entire time, Joseph had only begged for his own life, never mentioning the family he had put in danger.Matthias scoffed, dismissing Joseph as unworthy of further attention before walking away."Mr. Lowell! Matthias! You can't do this! This isn't fair! I didn't even touch Leona! This isn't right!" Joseph screamed, his voice filled with frustration and fear.Tobias slapped Joseph's face, glancing anxiously in Matthias' direction as he did so."You fool! Do you want the entire Griffin family to suffer for your mistakes? You were doomed once you had those impure thoughts about Mr. Lowe

"Do you think you're all that just because you brought in 15 million dollars? You think you can ignore me, your manager?" Blair snapped, her anger bubbling over.She had thought Leona was bold enough to skip work after getting involved with Joseph.Blair was jealous, believing Leona had somehow latched onto Joseph's influence and was acting superior.However, after confirming Joseph had resigned from his vice president position and left the country, Blair dismissed the thought.While she was still annoyed by Joseph's abrupt departure, she was mixed with a sense of relief and a desire for revenge against Leona.Only Kyle knew of Wealthtrack Financial Corporation's change in ownership, and no one else had access to that information. So, Blair was unaware that Leona's supervisor had been replaced and that Joseph was no longer in the picture.Otherwise, she might have approached Leona with a different attitude.Furthermore, Victor and the Griffin family were embarrassed by both the

Leona felt trapped.Blair had obviously used her absence as leverage, and if Leona did not attend the reunion, she risked losing her job."It's all your fault! Matthias, didn't you say you'd handle the leave for me?" Leona's voice was filled with frustration."Honey, don't be mad. I did arrange your leave, but who knew your college buddy would pull this trick?" Matthias quickly explained, secretly scoffing.A college reunion?Caleb was one of Leona's former classmates, was he not?With Blair suddenly insisting on Leona's attendance, Matthew could tell it was a setup by the two.If someone was eager to dig their own grave, he might as well lend them a helping hand and a shovel."Don't worry, honey. It's just a reunion. It's been three years since you've seen your old friends. It'll be good for you to catch up," Matthias replied, feigning ignorance of the true intentions behind the event.Leona hesitated.Under normal circumstances, she would have been happy to attend a reunion

Caleb and Blair entered the private room, dressed in beautiful outfits that immediately conveyed their success and high status."Hey! Caleb, Blair, you two finally made it! Everyone's been waiting for you to arrive!"As soon as they appeared, some classmates quickly gathered around Caleb and Blair, greeting them warmly."Caleb, I can't believe you've become such a big name in Havenwood's business world in just three years. You're the pride of our class!"Someone praised Caleb, and the change in attitude was noticeable.Before Caleb and Blair arrived, they were mostly peers of similar status; everyone was eager to curry favor with Caleb and Blair."Exactly! My manager heard that I was Caleb's classmate, and he had been trying to get me to introduce him. He's even asked me several times to arrange a meeting."Caleb smiled modestly, addressing the crowd, "Let's not make a fuss. I'm just a vice president. It's nothing to brag about.""Caleb, don't be so humble. Everyone in Havenwoo

"Please don't hold Leona's past against her. I'm just trying to help her by teaching her workplace etiquette. Let's sit and make ourselves comfortable," Blair said.After her words, everyone looked at Leona in different lights—there were glances of ridicule, mockery, sympathy, and surprise."Leona, is that true?" Madeleine asked, her face filled with disbelief."Maddy, don't believe her. I'm working under her now, but I haven't had a job for the past three years due to family issues. I'll explain everything to you later," Leona replied.Then, she refilled everyone's drinks.At first, they were rather polite when Leona served them their drinks. Soon, they considered it normal for her to do that, so they ignored her.Caleb watched the scene with disdain.After getting punched by Matthias, Caleb thought Leona had married someone impressive. However, it seemed Leona's whole family was not doing so well.As he thought about his plan, Caleb secretly scoffed.He intended to make Leon

Blair looked smugly at Madeleine and said with a hint of disdain, "Madeleine, it's been three years since graduation, but you're still the same. Leona isn't complaining, so why are you making a fuss?"Madeleine's face flushed with anger and frustration at Blair's words."Blair, you're—"Just as she was about to respond, Caleb said, "Madeleine, your family's restaurant is in need of funds. Did anyone tell you that your father asked me for a loan yesterday to help them out?"Caleb's expression was arrogant, looking at Madeleine with a glint in his eyes.After all, Madeleine was also a gorgeous woman, and he did not mind using that information to his advantage if she did not cooperate.Madeleine's face turned red with a mix of anger and embarrassment.She had no idea her family had approached Caleb for help."Wow, Madeleine's father is asking for a loan from Caleb? Madeleine, your father's got as thick a skin as you do," Blair mocked.Another female joined in and teased, "Well, i

Caleb watched as Leona and Madeleine stopped.He smirked and said, "Oh? You're staying, after all? Leona, if you cooperate tonight, only your family will face trouble, and Madeleine will be safe. I'll keep my word about lending money to her family."But if you refuse to cooperate... Well, let's just say that not only will your family be in trouble, but Madeleine's family will be dragged into it, too!"Leona felt conflicted and gave Madeleine an apologetic glance, not expecting her friend to be caught up in this mess."What do you want, Caleb?" Leona turned to face him, irritation flashing in her eyes.Madeleine's eyes were red with anger; she wanted nothing more than to slap Caleb across the face.If Leona did not hold her back, Madeleine might have already lost control."What do I want?" Caleb laughed, surveying the room.All the classmates avoided his gaze and lowered their heads."Just as I said before, sit next to me and wait for the surprise I have for you. As for Madelei

Chapter 79

Blair's tone dripped with sarcasm as she smirked.She confessed her feelings to Kieran in college, only to be rejected—the memory still stung.Someone tried to smooth things over and said, "Kieran, hurry up and apologize to Caleb. The food is not even served yet, and you're already causing a scene."Caleb watched Kieran with a smirk, his tone flat and commanding."If you're going to apologize, you must show your sincerity. Kneel and apologize."Kieran's face contorted with anger as he glared at Caleb."Why are you still standing there? Kieran, hurry up and kneel. Caleb is being generous by not making a bigger fuss. Do you think you're that important?" Blair said, her voice laced with disdain."Yeah, just kneel already. Caleb is already giving you a chance," someone else chimed in with a mocking tone."Exactly. We're classmates here; no one will talk about it."Other classmates started to speak up."Enough!" Leona suddenly shouted, her voice filled with frustration.She looke

"Yeah, Caleb. Stop pulling our legs. We're hoping to get ahead with you, so who will dare contradict you?""Leona, just come over and kneel. Don't drag others down with you.""Leona, hurry up. Don't look so uneasy. I bet you're secretly thrilled. If Caleb valued me like this, I'd already be on top of the world, enjoying endless wealth and fame," a plain-looking girl with heavy makeup said, her voice dripping with jealousy.In the private room, only a few people spoke up, trying to flatter Caleb and persuade Leona.The majority remained silent."What's the big deal? Just because he's powerful? Leona, Kieran, let's go. I don't believe Caleb will dare cause trouble here at The Ivory!"Madeleine finally lost her patience and went to grab Kieran, ready to leave.However, Kieran remained motionless, his face showing pain and his eyes glistening with tears.Caleb laughed upon hearing that, his tone filled with disdain."Madeleine, you've hit the nail on the head. The Ivory belongs to
