Supreme Mars

Chapter 281 Ill-intended Praise

On the way back, Leo was driving, and Lydia was fascinated by the scenery.

The moonlight was elegant and bright, shining on Lydia’s face and making her look dreamy.

“Still thinking about what just happened?”

Leo cocked his head to one side and asked with a smile.

Lydia was silent for a moment and nodded heavily.

“I don’t understand why everyone hates us and tries to break us up. So do my family, the Stewart

family, the Hamilton family and the Wilson family. Now, even your family is in. Why can’t people support

us to be together.”

She looked at the Leo, with depression and disappointment in her eyes.

“Lydia …” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

“You’re not like what they said. You’re not a loser and you don’t live off a woman. You haven’t relied on

me at all. Instead, I’ve been relying on you.”

Lydia ignored Leo and kept speaking.

“Lydia!”

Leo increased his voice. Then Lydia came to her sense and looked at him in surprise.

Leo didn’t speak, and handed a bottle of water to her.

Lydia took hold of the water in silence.

Leo smiled, looked at Lydia’s beautiful face and said, “You have changed.”

Lydia put down the water and was stunned, “What have I changed?”

“You never cared about what others thought about you before.”

Leo said calmly, “In the past, even if you had to take care of Emilia by yourself, you still managed to

expand Atlas Beauty to a large scale alone. At that time, did you care about others’ opinions about you

and the rumors?”

Lydia was in silence. Past events have faded like a puff of smoke. She bit her lips and her eyes were

slightly red.

Lydia started her business while taking care of Emilia. No one could imagine how she had been

disdained and how many ridicules she had suffered.

More importantly, Lydia was a single mom back then. The father was nameless. So, Lydia was

criticized behind her back a lot of times.

However, she still made it through. Her perseverance and courage couldn’t be seen in an ordinary

woman.

Why couldn’t she be like that now?

Leo smiled happily, “It means that you really care about me.”

Lydia wiped away her tears and said angrily, “Who cares about you? You narcissist!”

“I don’t care if we are blessed or not. Nothing in this world can separate me from you except death.”

Leo drove quietly and looked at the front, with stars reflected in his eyes.

“After a month, it will be the Mid-autumn Festival. If you visit my family, they will break us up. What

should we do?” Lydia asked.

“They can’t break us up.”

Leo shook his head and said in a flat tone, which showed his confidence.

He didn’t even care about the loyal families in Country YD, which are well-respected by the world.

Lydia burst into tears and asked, “Really?”

“Really.”

Leo smiled lightly, “You plan to retire at the age of 35, but you can retire now if you want. You can make

up for your past five years, just like what you did with the Tears of Venus.

”

Then he pointed at the Tears of Venus which was worth one billion yuan in Lydia’s finger.

Lydia also looked down but soon shook her head, “No. I said I would give you Atlas Beauty as a dowry.

I can’t break my promise.”

“Ha-ha.”

Leo laughed and drove away.

The next day was sunny.

Leo still kept a low profile in and out of the International Commerce Center. No one knew that he was

the owner of it.

However, the situation of Emerdale had changed implicitly.

A few days ago, the O’Brien family was destroyed. Moreover, several eminent families also took the

risks. They joined together and served the same person.

All families of Emerdale, big or small, all kept their eyes on Leo.

The only thing about Leo that drew people’s attention was that he married Lydia, the best female

president in Emerdale. Nothing else.

He didn’t have a house, a car, or even a job. He was not rich and was just an ordinary person.

However, his experience was enough to scare everyone away.

He almost offended all the families in Emerdale, but he was still alive. What’s more, those families who

claimed to destroy Leo died and was exterminated. Two of the four prestigious families, the Stewart

family surrendered and the Wilson family declined completely.

No one knew how these two families perished, but everyone knew that it had something to do with Leo.

On the top floor of the International Commerce Center.

Leo sat in the middle. Lukas and Justin were separately on his both sides.

“My lord, it’s been three days since Alan went to Hopkins Metropolis. He must have collected some

information today.”

Justin suddenly said respectfully, “I just don’t know if the Watts family in Hopkins Metropolis know what

to do!”

“They must know.”

Lukas sneered, “If they don’t, they are literally killing themselves.”

Leo looked at the clock and smiled lightly, “It’s almost the appointed time. Just wait.”

After Leo spoke, the phone rang. It was Alan.

“My lord, I’m sorry I let you down. The Watts family didn’t accept your letter of appointment and

threatened to get me out of Hopkins Metropolis!”

“What?!”

“How dare them say that!”

Listening to Alan’s report, Justin and Lukas were all indignant.

But Leo was smiling lightly. Instead of blaming Alan, he praised him, “You did a good job. If the Watts

family is willing to compromise, it will not be the eminent family in Hopkins Metropolis.”

“My lord, you mean …”

“Just wait. I’ll go there myself.”

Leo’s eyes were bleak, “I want to see how arrogant the Watts family in Hopkins Metropolis is.”

“Yes! My lord!”

Justin, Lukas and Alan were all inspired and answered at the same time.

After Lukas and Justin left, another man came in.

“Mr. Cohen is really in a good mood.”

The man was dressed in elegant white clothes and held a folding fan.

“What are you doing here?”

Leo neither raised his head nor got up to greet him, but asked casually.

Jaxon smiled, “Of course, I have something want to tell you. Uncle Lenny should have given you an

invitation letter a while ago to invite you to the Martial Arts Meeting.”

“So what?”

“It’s today. I’m here to pick you up,” Jaxon said with a smile.

Leo looked at the calendar, it was really today.

Seeing the expectation in Jaxon’s eyes, Leo suddenly asked, “Do you want to see me beaten by the

masters in the association? That’s why you can’t wait to invite me?”

“Come on. That’s a nice joke.”

Jaxon folded his fan and shook it gently. He said with a smile, “You had extraordinary skills. We need to

learn more from you. I hope you can attend this meeting and give them more advice”

“That’s good.”

Leo stood up and said, “Then let’s go.”

“Mr. Cohen, please.”

Jaxon let Leo go first, and then followed him.

Then Jaxon stared at Leo’s back coldly.

There are so many masters in the association. There must be somebody who can beat Leo up!

Jaxon still remembered that his hand was pinched and fractured by Leo at the Hudson family wedding

banquet last time.

Soon, their car arrived at the Martial Arts Association.

Leo was surprised that the so-called Martial Arts Meeting was based in a martial arts hall.

But the martial arts hall covered a wide area and was almost the same size as the pagoda of a temple.

In the hall, there were a hundred people, each wearing black and white martial arts clothes, rubbing

their hands and eager to fight.

Looking at these people, Leo suddenly had an incredible idea in his mind.

Although he was the Commander of Wyverns, he couldn’t let the army come forward again and again.

If he did that many times, those stubborn seniors would be impatient. He must cultivate some local

forces of Emerdale, so that when he was not here in the future, he could still protect his relatives and

friends.

This Martial Arts Association was a good choice.

Jaxon didn’t know what Leo was thinking. He said loudly, “Everyone be quiet. Today, I have invited a

distinguished guest and allow me to introduce …”

His voice was loud and spread to every corner of the martial arts hall. Suddenly, everyone looked at

them with meaningful glances.

Jaxon pointed at Leo and said in a loud voice, “The name Leo may be a little unfamiliar to everyone.

However, it is him who defeated several masters of the Martial Arts Association. Even the senior

master Lenny was defeated by him. What a great young man!”

For a moment, Leo understood Jaxon’s intention.

That was not an introduction! He was provoking resentment!

But Jaxon’s was so calm and acting really normal. He said that with a look of sincere admiration, which

deepened the resentment of the Martial Arts Association towards Leo.

That was nothing more than an ill-intended praise! lightnoveldaily.com
