Chapter 660
Harold continued to add oil to the fire.
“But-“Elder Young was still hesitant.
He was the head of the Youngs, there was no way he did not know the threat they posed!
However, Leon saved his life before. He already wrongly accused Leon once. If he targeted Leon again, it would be
completely immoral!
“Elder Young, don’t worry. With the Dragon Corps around, there’s no way we can kill Leon and the Shears! I just
think that the Youngs will grow much stronger after I join you, and you’ll stand at the top of the four families!
“Then, you’ll be able to summon up the other families to work together and destroy Cynthion Group or even

matter what!” Harold advised, but there was a cold glint in his eyes.
His target was not as simple as just Leon!
“Dad, I think the Northern King is right! We can’t just let Leon and the Shears grow. Otherwise, our profits might
suffer. We might even get destroyed! We can’t just ignore this!” Gilbert said with worry. He was convinced by
Harold.
“Yes, that makes sense,” Elder Young started to be swayed as well.
In truth, Elder Young had his sights further than Gilbert. If the Northern King joined the Youngs, then suppressing the
Shears and Leon and getting rid of future troubles was just one thing!
On the other hand, with the Northern King’s support, even if the Youngs were not able to completely take control of
Springfield City, they would at least become the strongest of the four families!
It was his greatest wish in all his years. It would be a lie to say he was not tempted!
“No, I refuse!” An angry shout was heard at that moment. Iris was coming downstairs.
She heard everything that was said between Elder Young and Harold from upstairs. She never expected that Harold
was there to mention marriage!
“So, Miss Young is here too.”
Harold and Jacob’s smiles stiffened when they heard Iris‘ rejection.
Iris ignored the others and walked right to Elder Young.
“Grandfather, I won’t agree to this!” Iris was shocked and angered.
The

person she loved was Leon. She was still feeling sad about breaking up with Leon, there was no space in her heart
for any other man!
In the first place, marriage was not to be played around with. She did not meet Jacob much before, so the two of
them were practically strangers. There was no way she could accept a man she did not know!
“That-” Elder Young was caught in an awkward spot.
Harold was still a notable figure in Springfield City. Even if Iris did not want to accept it, the rejection should have at
least been more polite.
However, Iris’s rejection was too direct. It was embarrassing to both sides!
“Miss Young, don’t be in such a hurry to reject it. Just think about it. Other than Theodore, Anson, and Harvey, no
one’s better than my son Jacob among the younger generation! Based on what I know, the four families never
marry each other, so the three of them are not suitable. Only my son can match up to you! You’re a match made in
heaven!” Harold said confidently.
He did not get angry at Iris’s refusal at all!
