Chapter 1128 Charmine turned back to look at him. "Is there anything else, Mr. Lennon?" "You came tonight because of the issue regarding the Jordan Group closing down, right?" asked Leon.
He thought Charmine would sneakily ask him a favor after what happened, but never did he expect she would leave just like that.
Charmine's lips curled up. "No. I came tonight to stop someone and something from happening. I don't blame you for closing down the Jordan Group-you can't do anything about it anyway. I'll do something else to resolve it."
It made sense for the Association to protect someone like Guy and his Granger family. Surely, with her sending Guy home, Grandma Granger would cease shutting down the Group.
She reminded Leon, "Don't worry about the Jordan Group, Mr. Lennon. Talk with your daughter."
With that said, she turned and left.
Leon called out, "Who said I can't do anything? With my authority alone, I can stop them from shutting down the Jordan Group."
1 Charmine stopped in her tracks.
Leon looked at Chloe and said, "Iâll speak to Ms. Jordan for a moment, Chloe. Wait forme."
Chloe was still astounded at the sudden shift. Back then, Leon would only say, "Go and sleep. I'm busy."
His tone...
Chloe felt that everything had changed. She eventually grew calm and nodded at Leon.
Leon then walked to Charmine. "To be honest, I didn't agree with them shutting down the Jordan Group; it's a separate matter anyway. The draft of your Divine Bird project, all the documents, funds, sponsors, and supports were approved by myself alone.
To me, the Divine Bird is a very meaningful project and the most valuable architectural addition to our country. I watched how you helped the Jordan Group get back on its feet. As for the matter of General Granger, I believe you're capable of keeping him alive." 1 Nonetheless, him believing in her meant very little-the rest did not see it the same way.
The others would rather shut down this promising company to save an important soldier like Guy.
However...
Leon looked at Charmine. "You'd save a passerby's life, clear-visioned, and you also helped me resolve a decade's worth of conflicts. What you said to me tonight was very wise. How would someone like you harm Guy? In fact, I think you and Guy are both the most gifted children of the country. Donât worry, and go home. I'll stop them from shutting down the Jordan Group tonight."
Charmine frowned with disbelief. "Mr. Lennon, isn't this too irrational?"
Everyone was worried about Guy's health, yet Leon was not and trusted her instead?
He was okay with her taking Guy's blood?
Leon smiled. "How's this irrational? It's irrational to shut down a promising company like the Jordan Group. Go home, Iâll fix everything else." i It was merely a military order. If he would become the guarantor, the Association would be willing to give them two more months.
Charmine frowned. "Thank you, Mr. Lennon, but I've already sent Guy home "What? What about your illness? I heard it's very painful when it occurs." Leon frowned.
Charmine wanted to brush it off when it occurred; that head-splitting agony of a migraine.
The pain felt like an electric drill was drilling her brain, that her head was about to explode, 1 "Argh...!" she whimpered before losing her balance and falling to the side.
