She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 1194

Chapter 1194 Lobbying

"Max, I thought you didn't come back with us at all. I never expected him to secretly let you stay on the coast. Do you know what happened afterwards?!" Leon said anxiously.

Max wanted to catch up with Leon, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he closed it again and looked wistfully at Kyle.

How did they get Leon's phone number and manage to contact him?

Max became alert.

Kyle immediately understood what Max meant and said to his phone,

"Leon, time is running out. You can catch up later. Let's get down to business first."

So Leon didn't care whether Max was listening or not, and he told him everything that happened in Athegate from beginning to end. Max's expression became more and more gloomy as he listened to Leon say,

"Do you know now? Jacob has always just been using us. He never had any intention of taking us to the top. Sage and I are the true reflection of that."

But Max had already become suspicious at this point. He gave Kyle a cold stare and asked,

"Leon, how much did they pay you to help them spread this lie?!" Max couldn't believe that Jacob, who he thought would have his back, could be so heartless.

"I swear to God!" Leon was furious upon hearing this. "You've been with me since we were kids. When have I ever lied to you?

Do you believe that once you help Jacob escape, the first thing he'll do is get rid of you once he's safe?"

Leon's angry reprimand echoed through the deck, even drowning out the sound of the waves, and Max appeared hesitant.

"Don't believe me?!" Seeing Max remain silent, Leon shouted, "Turn on the video!"

After the call was abruptly ended, a video message came through shortly after. Kyle answered it, and on the screen appeared Sage and Leon, both furious. Leon's face was filled with anger as he shouted, "Do you see it now?! This is what Jacob did to me!" He held up handcuffs and continued, "And I took money to lie? Now I'm counting the money in jail for what?!"

In Max's eyes, besides shock, there was also hesitation.

Sage knew that Leon was impulsive, so she patted him to signal him to calm down before speaking to Max,

"Max, both Leon and I have come to our senses. Instead of living aimlessly like this, we'd rather make amends for our past mistakes and live an honest life from now on. So, we willingly surrender ourselves. I hope you can see the truth and understand that helping Jacob do wrong will lead to no good outcome."

Sage had just finished speaking when another voice appeared on the video. It turned out that videos were not allowed in that particular environment, so the video abruptly ended.

Kyle saw that everything had been said and didn't push it any further. He put away his phone and said to Max,
