Chapter 116
“Dad, why are you calling?”
Martin bit the bullet and answered the phone.
The bad feeling in his heart was getting stronger.
“How dare you! Look what you have done. You even dare to offend Mr. Santos. Are you tired of living?
Do you want to destroy our family?”
Martin was in despair after hearing this.
Cole’s call and Leonard’s surname had made the fact clear.
“If you can’t ask Mr. Santos to forgive you, I will go break your legs.”
Cole’s roar on the phone put Martin in a daze.
He knew he had caused big trouble. Only a few people in Newden City could dictate to Cole. Leonard
was obviously one of them.
“Dad, who is he?”
Although Martin was astonished, he still asked and hoped he could escape this time.
Martin could use connections to settle it if Leonard was someone like the governor’s son, although he
couldn’t afford to offend Leonard.
“You can never imagine his identity. His few words can kick our family out of Newden City.”
Hearing this, Martin was completely shocked.
It wasn’t until now that he realized what kind of person he had offended.
He didn’t have time to care too much and rushed out of the door to chase after Leonard.
Everyone around was stunned, not knowing what had happened.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey all walked out in puzzlement.
The moment they walked out of the hotel, they were all dumbfounded.
They saw Martin kneel down in front of Leonard with a plop and hug Leonard’s thigh.
“Leonard, I was wrong. Please don’t be mad at me. Please forgive me. I will never do it again.”
Leonard kicked him aside and sneered, “Weren’t you very arrogant? Didn’t you say I was lying?
Where’s your arrogance now?”
Martin begged for mercy. “Sorry, I didn’t recognize you. It is my fault. Please don’t take it seriously…”
Marianna and the others who came out were stupefied. Kayla especially found it unbelievable.
Martin, who she had admired, was kneeling and begging for mercy humbly.
At this time, they realized Leonard was not an ordinary person.
He must be as powerful as the Governor.
“Leonard, I was really wrong.”
“Snap!”

Martin reached out and slapped himself across the face.
“What mistake did you make?” Leonard asked coldly.
“I shouldn’t cheat Marianna of her money just because I lost money in gambling.”
Hearing this, Marianna trembled in shock.
Martin’s words instantly made her see the truth.
It turned out Martin didn’t have any big background at all. He was just trying to get her money by saying
that he’would let someone powerful help her.
It turned out that what Leonard said before was true, but Marianna even doubted him.
She was very regretful right now in her heart.
Everyone around was also enlightened, and their admiration for Martin disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, they couldn’t help thinking about what Leonard had said before.
Cole asked Leonard to help discipline Martin. They thought Leonard was bragging, but now it seemed
to be true.
This made everyone curious about Leonard’s identity.
“Martin, since you failed to cheat, I will not pursue it anymore, but you have to be responsible for your
mistake.
“Go to Santos Group and work as a security guard for one year, and I’ll let it pass.”
“It’s…”
Martin was in a predicament when hearing this.
He was dignified and knew so many wealthy people in Newden City. If he went to Santos Group to
work as a security guard and his acquaintances saw this, it would be too embarrassing.
“What? You don’t want to?”
Leonard snorted lightly, making Martin shake in terror.
Thinking of Cole’s warning on the phone, he hurriedly wiped off his cold sweat. He nodded and said,
“No, I’d love to!”
“You can leave now,” Leonard said in a cold voice.
Marianna and the others suddenly realized Leonard was the president of Santos Group.
“Do you know Santos Group?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMarianna looked at her friends and asked.
Kayla said, “A company with a market value of four billion dollars.”
“Only worth four billion?”
At the same time.
In a magnificent villa.
Marianna’s mother, Melanie, was sitting on the sofa.
Her face was not wrinkled as time passed by but looked more charming.
Opposite Melanie was Jason.
“Mom, why did you come to Newden City?
“I swear I will bring Marianna back.”
“If I don’t come, Zavier will make a move. By the way, how is your investigation of Leonard?”
Jason looked depressed when hearing this.
He said, “I used some connections to check Leonard’s identity but found nothing. All his information is
empty, as if it’s deliberately covered up.
“I have inquired and found out he has a close relationship with Waylon Lambert, the president of the
Newden Chamber of Commerce. I guess he should be powerful in Newden City.
“But there is only one company called Santos Group under his name.”
“Santos Group?”
Melanie chuckled.
She had never heard of this company, which meant that it was not ranked among the top five in
Newden City. “What makes him think he can marry the daughter of the Rodgers family with such
wealth? He must be out of mind.”. Melanie took a sip of coffee. She stood up and looked at the scenery
outside the window, and her gaze gradually became
cold.
