Supreme Mars novel Chapter 45

The room became quiet. Various family members looked at each other in disbelief.

After a few moments of silence, a burst of mocking laughter broke out.

"What arrogance. How are you going to settle any of this?"

"Forget appeasing Frank and the O'Brien family. You can't even get Atlas Beauty to continue working with us!"

In their view, Leo was simply making empty promises. These three issues were the most crucial matters for them to deal with right now. Even the whole family together could not solve them. How could Leo manage to on his own?

Moreover, there was a week's time limit.

"You don't have to worry about that. I have my ways."

Leo just smiled faintly while everyone laughed at him, "Not only can I get Atlas Beauty to continue working with you all, but I can also get Frank Perry and the O'Brien family to apologize to me instead."

"This guy has lost his mind!"

Samuel glared at Leo and then looked at William and said, "He's still bragging at a time like this. How long are you going to protect this good-for-nothing?"

"Dad!"

Caroline also stood up and said, "I am sure that he can't do any of this. Him being around us will only cause more problems!"

"What will you do if I succeed?"

Leo was not angry. Instead, he looked at Caroline calmly.

Caroline looked at Leo as if he was an idiot. There was a highly likelihood that Atlas Beauty would break off the deal, and it was not something that could be undone with just a few words.

Not to mention dealing with the O'Brien family and Frank Perry.

Leo had instigated a mob attack on an O’Brien property. This was a big deal that concerned the family's reputation. The O'Brien's would not let it go easily. Although Nicole was merely Frank's lover, Frank was a very protective person. Who knew what he would do to settle the score?

"If you can settle these three things within a week, not only will I, Caroline Ford, serve you tea and apologize to you, I will also serve you for an entire day!"

"Okay, it's a deal."

Leo swept his eyes sharply over everyone. "I also have to make one thing clear. Since you all want to drive me away, I’ll grant your wish!"

"However, it's not that you want to drive me away, but I am taking the initiative to cut off all ties with the rest of you, except for my father!"

Leo’s powerful words echoed throughout the expansive living room.

"From today on, I will walk my own path, separate from yours. We will have nothing to do with each other!"

"My only relative is William Ford."

Leo turned around and left.

Rumble!

The moment he left; thunder rolled. A bolt of lightning tore through the sky and lit up the ground.

Leo's shadow cast a long profile as he left.

"Woosh!"

The rain started to pour down in a torrent.

However, Leo's clothes remained dry.

A black umbrella appeared above his head just as the rain fell.

Nadine held the umbrella up for Leo and dutifully escorted him away.

Before she left, she turned around and coldly swept her gaze over all the Ford family members. Those crimson eyes of hers that seemed to have been drenched in fresh blood, causing Caroline and the rest to shudder uneasily.

"I'm sorry, Sir. It's all my fault for being too ruthless and implicating you."

After entering the car, Nadine quickly apologized with a guilty expression.

"You don't need to apologize. You did the right thing."

Leo smiled slightly and said, "Besides, would the O'Brien family and the Perry family dare to retaliate, despite what we’ve done?"

Nadine immediately felt relieved after hearing these words.

Given Leo's power, he could destroy even the four most influential families of Emerdale with a flick of his wrist, much less the O'Brien family and the Perry family.

So, what if he messed them up? Who would even try to say a word about it?

The business world was ruthless. The Ford family members lacked a killer instinct. Why was that?

Because they couldn't reach the heights that Leo had.

"You know what to do. Teach the O'Brien's and Frank Perry a proper lesson to make them behave themselves," Leo said lightly.

"Yes, Mr. Cohen."

Nadine stepped on the accelerator and the car sped forward.

"Sir, where are we going now?" asked Nadine calmly as she drove the car.

Leo looked at the time and smiled. "Let's go to Kaiser Kindergarten. I want you to meet my daughter."

Nadine's eyes flickered and she said awkwardly, "There is no need for that..."

"Why not?"

Leo glared at her. "You haven't met my daughter yet. It's long overdue, I believe."

"..."

Nadine fell silent.

She knew that Mr. Cohen was treating her as one of his own. However, she had never come into contact with a child before, so she was even more afraid of scaring the girl.

"Don't be afraid. She will like you, I promise." Leo's expression softened and he comforted her.

On the 88th floor of Atlas Beauty.

Lydia stood in front of the French windows, gazing at the torrential rain.

The whole world was covered with a layer of misty rain. Everything seemed hazy and dreamlike.

Suddenly, a notification sound came from the company's computer.

Lydia returned to her seat. As she looked at the contents displayed on the screen, her expression gradually turned into one of shock.

There was an additional 10 million deposited into the company's bank account.

"It's the rest of the money... Was Irene actually successful?" She muttered to herself; her face full of shock.

She had no choice but to send Irene to chase after the debt. She had been prepared for a long-term war with Cleo Entertainment, but Irene had managed to secure it already?

Ten minutes later, someone knocked on the door of the president's office.

"Please come in," Lydia said.

Irene walked into the president's office with an umbrella in her hand.

"I'm back."
