Chapter 1808
"Mister Thompson, the Hiltons, and the Thompsons have steered clear of one another's path so far! Why are you
fighting us for Leon's sake?!" Joel questioned, an ominous feeling overwhelming him.
"Mister Wolfs a friend of the Thompsons! Isn't that a sufficient reason?" John said coldly.
"What?! He's a friend of the Thompsons?!"
Realization dawned on Joel and Seth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey were initially confused as to why Darius would offer so much resource to a small business like Elegante Group.
Judging from what John said, it was not hard to conclude that Leon partnered with Hughes Group through the
Thompsons, or an enterprise as powerful as Hughes Group would have never bothered to work with a small
business that started in Springfield City.
"Damn it!"
"Gordon Bailey! That bast*rd!"
Joel and Seth were livid when they learned the truth and cursed inwardly.
Gordon informed them that Elegante Group was only a small business without any support from the families in the
southern region, which prompted them to target the company.
However, Leon turned out to be a friend of the Thompsons, who were the most powerful family in the region.
Leon could not possibly be an ordinary man if he was friends with the Thompsons, so the two instantly realized that
they were played by Gordon.
"Joel, out of respect for the Hiltons, I'll give you two a chance! Leave now, and I'll pretend as if none of these have
happened, so I'll show no mercy!" John said.
He knew that the Hiltons were one of the major families in the southern region with an influence comparable to
that of the Thompsons.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmConsidering what Leon did for the Thompsons, John was more than willing to protect Leon from harm, but he would
never become Leon's hitman to take the Hiltons down, as crossing the Hiltons would affect the Thompsons as well.
Hence, John wished that the situation could be resolved peacefully.
"I-" Joel's expression darkened.
He underestimated the Elegante Group and only brought two bodyguards in the Advanced Emperor State with him.
Since John was in the Semi-Almighty State, he was far superior to Joel and his bodyguards. With John there to
protect Leon, Joel knew that he would not be able to harm a single hair on Leon.
However, Leon broke Seth's leg before his eyes and blatantly disrespected the Hiltons. On top of that, they did not
manage to obtain Elegante Group and Joel could not bring himself to simply leave.
