Leonard returned to the headquarters, and Noam rushed over after receiving the
news.
“Mr. Santos, are you injured?”
Noam asked worriedly.
“I’m fine, but Rex is injured!”
After Leonard asked Noam to sit down, he said, “This Rubin is on Egbert’s side. Regardless of whether his actions were under the instructions of Elder Landon, it would be a disaster to keep Elder Landon. I might as well take this opportunity to strip Elder Landon of his position as an Elder.”
Hearing Leonard’s words, Noam shook his head and said, “Elder Landon is nothing to worry about. However, Mr. Santos, have you ever wondered why he dared to openly oppose you despite knowing that you’re the heir chosen by Lord Clarkson?”
After hearing what Noam said, Leonard started to have doubts.
Noam was obviously hinting at him.
“As far as I know, the Galen Group is feared by many forces because of its powerful strength. In the past years, when Lord
Clarkson has been ignoring the affairs of the Galen Group, countless forces have
infiltrated. In addition to the forces within the Galen Group, the Elders also have allies. outside. That’s why they dare not to take. Lord Clarkson seriously.”
“Betrayal and colluding with outsiders. They deserve to die!” A bit of murderous. intent appeared in Leonard’s eyes.
Then, he recalled Ibrahim saying that there were a few old guys keeping an eye on him at all times. Did those Elders turn to those people?
Leonard could not help but look at Noam with eagerness.
“How about you? Has anyone tried to turn you?”
Noam smiled bitterly and nodded. “Of course. The Walton family of Imperial City.
“The Walton family is known as the number one family in Imperial City. It controls extremely terrifying resources and power, far beyond what other families in the city can compare with.
“Besides me, there are several Elders in the Galen Group who are also on the Walton family’s side, including the powerful Keith.”
The Walton family of Imperial City?
Leonard could not help but recall that the people who destroyed the entire Bailey family last time were members of the Walton family.
He did not expect them to have infiltrated even the Galen Group.
“This family is really looking for death.”
After Noam left, Leonard took a shower and changed, feeling refreshed.
Rex, who had applied the Elixir of Longevity on his body, had his wounds completely healed. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
At this time, Iwan, the hall leader of the Execution Hall, came to visit with two of his subordinates.
“How did it go? Did you get anything out of Stuart?”
Leonard asked calmly. He sat on the sofa but did not invite Iwan to sit down.
“After questioning, it was found that Stuart accidentally leaked the news about inviting you over to Rubin. He was unaware of Rubin’s ambush on you.
“I have sent people to arrest all the remaining of Rubin’s subordinates.
According to the laws of the Galen Group, they will be severely punished.”
Iwan said.
“Are you saying that Stuart is free just like
that?”
Leonard frowned.
“Is Stuart guilt-free just because he claimed he was unaware? No way he gets away so easily,” Leonard thought.
Iwan shook his head. “Of course not. Mr. Santos, you were put in danger because of Stuart. There’s a high possibility that he conspired with Rubin or even did it deliberately.
“Although Rubin died and cannot provide any evidence, Stuart definitely had something to do with it.
“Technically speaking, Stuart committed a capital crime and could be executed on the spot.
“However, after questioning, I learned that Stuart had sided with Elder Perez.”
Iwan looked at Leonard solemnly and said, “Elder Perez is second only to the Lord in the Galen Group. He has a high status and powerful strength. If Stuart is punished too severely, I am afraid that Elder Perez will be
dissatisfied.
“My suggestion is we should de-escalate the issue. There’s no need to offend Elder Perez. Just give Stuart some minor punishment, and it will do. Of course, it is best to hand Stuart over to someone on Elder Perez’s side to deal with.
“He is on Brandon’s side. Doesn’t handing him over to Brandon mean setting him free. completely?” Leonard frowned. “I absolutely will not agree with this. Stuart must die.”
As soon as Leonard finished speaking, Iwan’s expression suddenly changed drastically. He hurriedly waved his hands and said, “Mr. Santos, please don’t be reckless. If you killed Stuart, Elder Perez would be furious, and the consequences would be disastrous.”
Iwan originally thought that Leonard would calm down after hearing what he had just said.
However, Leonard shook his head and said in a cold voice, “Iwan, you’ve really let me down. I originally thought since you’re the hall leader of the Execution Hall, you’d give me a satisfactory explanation. However, I didn’t expect that because you were afraid of the power of Brandon, you would actually want to turn a blind eye.
“If the Execution Hall dares to let Stuart go, I’ll hold you accountable, and I won’t let you off easily.”
There was a horrifying chill in Leonard’s voice.
Iwan was dumbfounded, and he looked at Leonard with a strange look.
He did not expect Leonard to be this arrogant.
He kindly reminded Leonard and proposed the best plan for him, never mind that Leonard did not accept it, but he even threatened him.
Brandon was the most powerful person in the entire Galen Group besides Ibrahim. Plus, he had been in seclusion for many years, and his strength was unfathomable.
Some people said that Brandon’s strength was comparable to that of the Lord of the Galen Group, Ibrahim.
Since Ibrahim was not here to protect Leonard, if Leonard angered Brandon and Brandon decided to strike back, even if Leonard was the heir of the Lord, he might be killed.
“Mr. Santos, you have to think twice before acting and don’t act on impulse. You have to understand that Elder Perez is not someone
you can afford to offend now,” Iwan said with a bit of dissatisfaction.
“Act on impulse? I’m going to do exactly that. So what?”
As soon as Leonard finished speaking, his body suddenly disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already at the door.
The next moment, he punched out.
The door was blown to pieces.
A figure flew out from behind the door and landed in the yard.
Leonard strode out, came to the
eavesdropper, and stepped on him.
With a loud crack, the eavesdropper’s head was instantly deformed under Leonard’s foot, and blood splattered.
“Iwan, you listen to me well. From now on, in the Galen Group, those who obey me shall prosper, and those who go against me shall perish.
“Stuart’s death is certain. If Brandon is not happy about that, I will kill him too!”
