Chapter 1209

“No way in hell! I’m not agreeing to it even if it means the death of me!” Benedict gritted out.

He knew that Theodore was a known womanizer in Springfield City and since Leon destroyed his legs, he were rendered completely useless.

With that considered, Benedict would never agree to marry his granddaughter to such a man.

With the Dragon Corps to maintain order, the Lapwoods would not dare to do anything to them so long as he refused the proposal to the very end.

“How stubborn?! You asked for this!” Enraged, Sean ordered, “Solomon, destroy him and teach him what it’s like to cross a Lapwood!”

“Yes!” Solomon fired up his true energy once again and stepped toward Benedict.

“That’s enough, Lapwood! If you dare to kill my grandfather, the Dragon Corps will have your heads!”

Terrified, Cynthia stood before Benedict to protect him.

“I know that, but I don’t intend on killing anyone!” Sean said casually.

The Shears sighed a breath of relief, but what Sean said next sent chills down their spines.

“Cynthia Shear, this is your last chance! If you refuse to marry Theodore, I’ll destroy the power of all direct descendants in your family, before breaking all their limbs to leave them in pain! So long as I don’t kill anyone, the Dragon Corps branch in Springfield City can’t do anything to me!” Sean said coldly.

“What?!”

Cynthia, Benedict, and the other Shears froze in shock, as they knew that Sean was right.

Conflicts occurred frequently among martial artists and the only thing that would cause the Dragon Corps to act would be if someone died.

If Sean controlled his subordinates and kept them from killing, even if the Dragon Corps interfered, the Lapwoods involved would only be locked away for a few days, which was hardly a big price to pay.

“You wouldn’t dare! Lapwood, if you do that, Leon will kill you!” Cynthia roared.

At such a critical moment, all she could think of was Leon; she desperately wished that Leon would appear before her and save the Shears.

“Leon?” Sean was slightly taken by shock as he did not know how Leon was related to this.

Theodore rolled his wheelchair forward with a dark expression on his face as he gritted out, “Cynthia, why are you still talking about Leon up until now? So you haven’t forgotten about him, after all!”

Leon was his nemesis and his resentment reached its peak after Leon destroyed his legs, yet the woman he loved was fully devoted to Leon; even when Leon went back to Iris’s arms, Cynthia did not forget about it and was still hoping that he would return to the Shears.

If he knew that Leon and Cynthia already made peace in private, he would explode with rage right there and then.
