Chapter 779
“Alright, don’t make any more wild guesses. I’ll tell you the truth…after leaving Elegante Group, I founded a new
company called Cynthion Group, and it’s been doing quite well lately…” Seeing how adamant she was to get to the
bottom of this, Leon finally decided to tell her the truth, but before he could finish, she interrupted him.
“You founded a company? Don’t try to fool me! You have no money or connections, so how can you even pull that
off?” Ariel said dubiously. As a member of Elegante Group’s higher management, she was familiar with the business
world, but since Cynthion Group had yet to make a name for itself, she had never heard of it before and thus had
no idea that Leon was, in fact, the president!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was still under the impression that he was boasting!
“I’m not fooling you; I’m telling the truth. I founded this company with someone else. They’re responsible for the
cash flow, whereas I’m in charge of the technical sector…” Leon explained. He did not mention that his business
partner was Cynthia, lest Ariel misunderstand his message and think Cynthia had taken him in as a sugar baby!
“Oh!” Ariel finally understood. She knew that Leon was the brains behind Elegante Group’s cosmeceutical line, even
though Leon did not have anything under his name, he was a smart and capable man. Therefore, she was not at all
surprised to find out that Leon had managed to find a company with someone else based on his technical expertise.
“But even if you founded a company with someone else, it would have just taken off, so how did you manage to
fork out 780 million dollars worth of assets? Besides, I don’t think your business partner would agree to
this!” Ariel asked dubiously.
She guessed that Leon’s company had probably just begun to take off, so one would not expect Leon to be able to
fork out a few million dollars, much less 780 million!
“I mortgaged all my shares and got a loan…” Leon replied.
“What? You-” Ariel immediately understood and fell into a brief silence at this discovery. Even though she did not
know where Leon loaned the money from, she knew that he must have paid a hefty price and pulled many strings
to get his hands on the money!
“What’s wrong, Ariel?” Leon asked, sensing that something was wrong.
“Nothing…” Ariel sighed. She knew that as someone with nothing under his name, Leon must have put in an
exceptional amount of hard work just to build a company with someone else.
The Youngs had betrayed Leon and kicked him out of their house, yet not only did Leon hold his head up high, but

Leon had placed so much on the line just to help Iris!
‘Iris, I don’t know what’s wrong with you–how can you break up with someone like Leon, who’s so willing to sacrifice
everything for you?‘ Ariel asked silently.
She could not help feeling grievous about this. After all, she was in love with Leon, and she longed for Leon to love
her even one–tenth of how he loved Iris!
“Ariel, let’s talk details. I intend to use 780 million to buy out Elegante Group, how does that sound?” Leon asked
straight to the point.
