Chapter 1809
"Mister Thompson, I don't care if Leon is friends with the Thompsons! He broke my cousins' leg and you saw it with
your own eyes! He must pay for committing such an inhumane crime!'' Joel said.
"You want me to pay? How?" Leon said coldly, knowing perfectly well that Joel resorted to reasoning with them after
realizing that he could not win by force.
'How shameless!' Leon thought.
"It's simple. Break one of your arms and kneel before my cousin to apologize! That way, all is forgiven! Refuse, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou'll suffer for what you've done!" Joel sneered.
With John on Leon's side, he realized that it would be impossible to take control of the Elegante Group by force.
However, since Loen severely injured Seth, that gave Joel an excuse to challenge Leon to a fight in the name of
justice for his cousin. As an outsider, John would have no right to interfere.
Once Leon lost John's protection, Joel was confident that he could do whatever he pleased with Leon.
"That's not possible! Dream on!’ Leon scoffed at Joel's threat.
"Very well! You asked for this!" Joel sneered.
He only wanted an excuse to hurt Leon and was satisfied that Leon did not agree to the condition. Once Leon was
out of the way, it would be easy for him to obtain Elegante Group.
"Mister Thompson, you heard him! He broke my cousin's leg, and all I asked was that he breaks his arm in return!
Since he won't agree to it, you can't blame me for what I'm about to do! This is between me and him, so I'd like for
you to stay out of it, or my grandfather will have a word with the Thompsons!" Joel threatened to prevent John from
interfering.
"Well," John was instantly rendered speechless.
Leon was a friend of the Thompsons and John was not going to stand idly by if Joel attempted to gang up on Leon.
However, Joel had a legitimate reason to challenge Leon to a fight, which made this an official duel between two
martial artists of the younger generation.
Since Leon was not a member of the Thompsons and John was a senior, it would not be fair for him to interfere.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I heard him! I can stay out of this, but a word of warning, this is between the two of you and you can sort it out
however way you want! But if your bodyguards attempt to get involved, I won't stand by and watch!" John said.
He knew the extent of Leon's power and that he was even capable of defeating someone in the Intermediate
Emperor State.
Joel's bodyguards were both from the second generation and as long as they were not allowed to help, Joel would
never be able to harm Leon.
Hence, John agreed to refrain from interfering, not knowing that he was worried over nothing.
Leon had countless tricks; apart from the Potential Energy Force he received from Master Haslewood, the Cuff of
Doom accumulated a strike that held the power in the Intermediate Emperor State; even if Joel's bodyguards were
in the initial or Intermediate Almighty State, Leon would still be able to win.
