Chapter 2217
"I just caught words that Roanne Thompson moved in with Leon last night," Rodney explained.
He knew that the Scarlet Thief was sent to assassinate Leon earlier that morning, and like the others, he was
certain that Leon would die.
Once Leon was out of the picture, the Southern Boss would capture Iris and Cynthia and obtain Cynthion Group
through them.
Since Leon was close with the Thompsons, Rodney was worried that the Thompsons would try to protect Iris and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe Cynthion Group, so he sent the second Guardian to spy on the Thompsons in the hope of updating the Southern
Boss on any movement the Thompsons made.
Unfortunately, the Southern Boss's plan fell apart.
Not only had the Scarlet Thief failed to kill Leon, but he also ended up killed by the Dragon Corp and wasted the
Southern Boss's effort in scheming everything.
Rodney happened upon the news that Roanne moved in with Leon, Iris, and the others. Realizing that this was
important, he immediately hurried home to report his latest finding to the Southern Boss.
"What?! The Thompsons sent Roanne to live with Leon.
What are they trying to do? Are they not worried that they are going to tarnish their reputation?" The Southern
Boss
and the others were stunned.
Roanne was the eldest unwed daughter of the Thompsons, whereas Leon already had a girlfriend. If words that the
Thompsons allowed Roanne to move in with a man, Roanne's reputation would be on the ground.
As the head of all families in the southern region, the Thompsons always valued their reputation and it seemed out
of character for them to make such an arrangement.
"Yeah! Leon has been gathering beautiful women by his side, so he is not a good man! The Thompsons knew that
yet they willingly sent Roanne to Leon to be his plaything! They lost whatever dignity they had!” Rodney said
jealously.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIris and the other women by Leon's side were all stunningly beautiful women that any man would dream of dating.
From the first time, Rodney laid eyes on Roanne, he was enticed by her beautiful and frail appearance.
Though Iris and Cynthia were slightly superior in terms of beauty, Rodney had his eyes set on Roanne regardless.
Roanne was the eldest unwed daughter of the Thompsons, and the Thompsons always considered his father, the
Southern Boss, an enemy. Hence, Rodney knew that the Thompsons would be devastated if he managed to make
Roanne his plaything.
Despite his fantasy, the Thompsons offered Roanne up to Leon before Rodney had the chance of executing his plan.
Instantly, his heart was filled with jealousy and resentment toward Leon.
