Hearing that, Adviser Ashton was getting thrilled. He clenched his hands out of excitement.
Then Leon replied, âI need more! More than a hundred thousand!â
Adviser Ashton was rendered sullen, âHe canât even get enough with a hundred thousand? What a greedy guy!â However, he still managed to hold back his curse as he was turned to be a mute. For him, it was still worth though it cost much.
Adviser Ashton then gritted and took out a piece of paper, on which there written one million.
Seeing the offer, Leon smiled with delight. However, Adviser Ashton turned to be livid as he had never expected that Leon would ask for such a avaricious price. But he could do nothing but to accept it.
Though Adviser Ashton was aware of his insatiable desire, now he still needed his help.
He had made up his mind that he would make his men attack Leon once he recovered his voice. At the thought of the fragility of this old man, Adviser Ashton couldnât help snickering as if he were now staring at a moron.
At this moment, Leon took out a vial of medicinal liquid and said, âDrink it. Then you will have your voice back.â
Adviser Ashton took it and drank it. As expected, he could utter again, âWow, that really surprises me!â
Leon then echoed proudly, âOf course it does!â
Scoot was stunned as it went beyond his expectation. He couldnât even believe that he could have his voice back so soon. He couldnât help getting thrilled again. What an unexpected fortune!
âGreat! I am glad with it!â Adviser Ashton nodded contentedly.
Leon smiled, âNow I can have my money, right?â
Hearing that, Adviser Ashton let out a sinister smile as if the old man were joking, âWell, it seems that I did overestimate you. But now I can see through your weak nature under your seemingly strong facade.â
Leon looked infuriated all of a sudden. Of course, now he could tell that Adviser Ashton was just a fickle rat. Then he huffed with his overcast face, âAlright! Since thatâs your choice, now you shall bear the consequence.â
Adviser Ashton deemed his words nothing but a brag. He waved his hand and then a group of men rushing in. At the same time, they started to initiate attack against Leon.
Leon casually took out something mysterious and then splashed it. Suddenly, those men kept screaming as if they were insane.
Adviser Ashton was dumfounded. He couldnât even believe what was happening until he saw it with his own eyes.
Of course, he was wise enough to realize that he just offended someone he could never afford to offend. He took a deep breath out of shock and had no idea what to do.
Then Leon shifted his eyes on Adviser Ashton, who hurried to apologize, âSorry, itâs all my fault! Please donât do anything to hurt me. I will get you your money right now!â
Not until then did Leon stopped. When noticing that he got a sum of transfer in his bank account, he took a look at Adviser Ashton. Though he was not a guy crazy for money, he was still surprised when seeing the amount.
Adviser Ashton smiled to reply, âJust make it an appetizer for you. And now I still need you to do me a favor.â
âI know you are still up for something else. Alright, just tell me, what do you want? I donât think I will turn it down if I am available,â Leon replied casually.
Adviser Ashton got excited when hearing his reply. Then Leon continued, âDo you know about Grace?â
âOf course. She is now staying with Maximilian, right?â Adviser Ashton hurried to say.
Hearing that, Leon huffed, âHe is just a nobody. Only my grandson is qualified enough to be her match.â
Adviser Ashton didnât expect that Leon actually knew about Grace. But he could tell that this old man would definitely accept his request. If so, that would be a piece of good news for him.
Leon smiled, âWell, even if I couldnât get paid from you, I would still accept your request.â
Adviser Ashton chuckled as that was what he wanted. Of course, it would be much better since Leon accepted it.
Adviser Ashton couldnât help continuing to ask, âExcuse me, may I have your name?â
Though he knew a lot of incredible guys in H City, none of them could overtake this old man. So he was itching to know his name.
Hearing that, Leon stated, âWell, you want to know my name? Perhaps you have never heard about my name. But I am sure you have heard about the title of the top master of poisonous insect, right?â
As he paused, he raised up his head proudly as he deemed his title renowned Adviser Ashton couldnât help gasping. He couldnât believe the fact that this old man was actually the top of all masters in playing spells with poisonous insects. Of course he knew about him, a man who could never be valued with money.
No one had ever expected that Leon actually accept the request on his own initiative.
Then Leon immediately started to take action. He hurried to ambush as soon as he got the address of Maximilian.
Adviser Ashton chuckled to himself as he deemed that Maximilian must be doomed under Leonâs attack.
Grace was about to go out. Suddenly, she hurried to flinch back to the villa out of instinct.
Seeing that, Maximilian was surprised. He had no idea what was happening. So he asked, âWhy are you coming back?â
âHere comes that guy again!â she gritted.
Maximilian was confused. But then Grace explained that Leonâs grandson had been chasing her love.
However, Grace had no feelings for him. So she had been hiding. However, even she herself had never expected to encounter such a bad luck todayâboth Leon and his grandson were coming to get her.
Maximilian was stunned. But he could tell from her words that she had no feelings for Leonâs grandson.
Since now both of them were approaching, their intention was obvious.
âItâs okay. Each problem comes with a solution.â Adviser Ashton smiled.
Grace nodded and showed no objection. She was clear about it to this point.
At this moment, someone knocked the door. So Maximilian walked to open the door.
There stood an old man outside the door, beside whom there was a young lad who was about in his twenties. Though he was a handsome lad, he seemed to be dishonest. Maximilian could tell that he must be a treacherous guy when looking at his face.
At this moment, Maximilian was sure that this young man must be up for something evil.
When the young man looked at Grace, he fixed his eyes on her, thrilled.
Grace was rendered sick. So she turned her head aside.
Not until then did the young man look at Maximilian as if he were glaring at his rival in love.
