Looking inside of the sack, the group was instantly terrified.
The one inside was not Leo. Instead, it was the cold dead body of Roman’s grandson, Barnaby!
“How could this ever happen?” Jayden asked himself in fear, “Where did the good-for-nothing go?”
Terrified, Rebashuddered, supported herself up from the ground and hid herself behind William.
Only William knew something about what really happened. As the terrified look on his face faded, he chose to remain silent and offered alittlechuckle.
Jayden red at Williamimmediately, “What are youughing at? Tell us everything you know!”
Williamshook his head, “I know nothing except for a saying that those who insult others will be eventually insulted.”
“The Nicholsonshavedone all kinds of evil things, and sooner orter they willbring trouble on their own head. Perhaps,theyhave alreadybeen destroyed, andBarnaby’s body isexactlytheproof.”
“No way.” AsJayden’s face turned pale, he as shaky on his feet and dialed the phone number of the Nicholsons immediately at the next moment.
However, he’d only got a notification that the number he dialed was not be answered for the moment.
“Mr. Ford, the car dropping the sack seems to belong to the Spencers.” At that time, a youngster of the Fords said with a weird look on his face.
Thelookon Jayden’s face was stained with fear, and the women of the Fords were also extremely frightened.
Everyone reminded themselves of the picture that Wace respectfullygreeted Leo as Mr. Cohen.
“Wait… was that the Spencers protected that good for nothing, killed Barnabyand wiped off the Nicholsons?”
Everything would make sense if Leohad really been backed by the Spencers. It was just that they could hardly figure out why the Spencers reached out their helping hand to that good-for-nothing.
“Grandpa, given that Leois still alive, how about we find him and talk to him? It would be a bad thing if we were to be his enemy…”
It was not until she had finished her words that Reba stepped forwards and gave her a stinging p.
With a spiteful and chilling expression in her eyes, Rebashouted, “Have you lost your mind? He is the reason why our family suffered so many times, and now you’re telling me you want to help him! Only his death could soothe my heart!”
“Aye.”Jayden looked ahead with acertainlook on his face, “The Stewarts of the four prestigious families will help us fight against him, and there is no need for us to ever be afraid of the Spencers!”
“And also, you’re going to marry into the Hudsons,” he turned to Caroline and continued, “With the help of the Hudsons and the Stewarts, there will be no difficulty for us teaching him a good lesson!”
Hearing the words of Jayden, all the members of the Fords turnedposed and encouraged with a confident smile on their faces.
Only Williamwas sitting in the corner and remained silent. After he knew the background ofLeo, he realized that even the alliance of every single family in Emerdalewould bepletely no match for him, let alone that he’d got more than he currently knew.
“By the way, any news about his wife?” Jayden asked suddenly.
As everyone shook to deny, Caroline reminded herself of thatst time when the chairman of HY Business AssociationvisitedRiverside club, everyone was kicked out, except for Leoandthe deputy general manager of L group, Irene.
She told everyone around about this thing, and then Jayden pped his hands and said, “Good! Then I can tell that she is exactly the wife of that stupid ass, which can also exin why the Spencers would ever be willing to help him!
“Maybe hewas justhooked on the beauty of Irene, but he never knew that he had been betrayed by his own wife!”Rebasaid.
“Fine, go to L group and find Irene, and I want you to threaten her to divorce Leo! Also, I will go to talk to the Stewards and ask for their help on dealing with that good-for-nothing!”Jayden sneered, “No one will be his assistance anymore, and soon enough he is going to die a tragic death!”
Soon, the whole ce was filled withughter
However, only Caroline remained mncholy on her face – she was afraid that the decision of her grandpa would not only drag the whole Fords into the abyss but also bring trouble on the Hudsons, the family that she was going to marry into.
As times went by, even though the Nicholsons had tried their best to suppress the downfall had been suppressed as much as possible, the truth was still known by some of the families.
The location ofthe Stewartswasadjacent totheEmerdale River, and the rows of vis on both sideswere allthe property of the Dong family.
In one of the vis, a handsome man in sky blue silk pajamas withhis chest ventedstood in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window with a ss of red wine.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
Seeing through the window, he saw that the wind was howling and causing rough on the surface of the Emerdale River.
Staring at the river for a while, the man burst into rampantughter suddenly.
“Well, Leo… You’ve really got something, haven’t you, Leo? There must be something special inside you given that you’re the fiancé ofKate! Just wait and see, and we shall meet with each other soon.”
In the midst ofughter, the mandrained the ss of wine.
He put down the ss, and the color of scarlet dyed his mouth, making him look as if a bloodthirsty vampire.
On the top of the International Commerce Center, the door of Leo’s office was knocked.
“Is Mr. Cohenhere? Here is a delivery of yours!”
Leostood up instantly and opened the door.
Then, the delivery man standing outside the door handed over a big bunch of roses to Leo, “Here is the rose bouquet that you offered, Mr. Cohen, and the number of the flowers is nine hundred and ny-nine in total.”
“Thank you.” Writing his signature on the receipt, Leotook over the bunch of flowers and then headed to the CEO’s office of L group.
Maybe it was only another ordinary daytoday for the others, but it was not so likely for Leo.
Half a month had passed, and theloyal families in Country YDhad not sent anyone over. Today, hewas able tomove back tothe Violet Residencesto reunite with his wife and daughter.
One day part was like three mouths past. And as for Leo, a half month thinking of his wife and daughter was like seven years missing.
However, Leodidn’t have any experience in love, and bringing his wife a bunch of flowers was the only romantic idea that he could evere up with.
Knocking at the door of the CEO’s office, he was surprised to see that the one he met was not his wife.
“Leo?” Marieopened the door and looked at Leowith a surprised expression on her face,“Why are you here?”
Dumbfounded, Leoasked with confusion, “Aren’t you supposed to be in an internship at the moment?”
“Well, I’m on leave today.” Mariechuckled, and shifted her eyes to the rose bouquets inLeo’s arms, “Wow, a rose bouquet! Jesus, there are nine hundred and ny-nine roses in total! Is that something you prepared for me?”
“Not exactly. It’s a gift I prepared for your sister. Where did she go?’ With an awkward look on his face, Leolooked inside and asked.
The surprised, gleeful expression in Marie’s eyes had disappeared. Looking at Leo with disappointment, she forced a smile and answered, “She’s been at a meeting currently. I think she is on her waying back soon.”
“Great! I’m leaving this to you, and please hand it over to her for me.” Saying so, Leothen pressed the rose bouquet to her.
“Hey, wait……”
AsMariewas about to say something, Leohad already stepped inside the elevator and left.
Looking at the rose bouquet in her arms, Marie was frustrated with a doleful look hung on her face.
Ten minutester, Lydia came back, and as she opened the door, she saw that Marie was standing inside the office alone with a huge rose bouquet in her arms.
“Wow, what a beautiful rose bouquet you have!” Smiled Lydia, and she then chuckled, “Is that a gift from someone you’re dating with?”
“Well, it’s…”With her face turned flushed, Mariewas about to speak out the truth, but something inside her caused her to bite the rest of the words back.
Looking at Lydia, who was putting a curious and confused expression on her face, Marie, pushed by a speechless feeling, smiled reluctantly and answered, “Yes, you’re right! It’s a gift from someone I’m dating with!”
