Chapter 1823
"I don't think that'll work! Elegante Group isn't under the Hughes' management and all their products leave detailed
records when we distribute them! If I tamper with them, they'll find out that I did it!" Gordon shook his head.
He was no fool and knew that Joel meant to serve him up in exchange for Elegante Group's downfall. Though
Gordon wanted to get rid of Leon as well, he did not wish to risk his job and life for it.
"Don't worry, you won't be blamed for it! Just find yourself a scapegoat, so that someone else will take the blame
for you!" Joel said.

As long as he was willing to pay, it would not be hard for him to find a scapegoat in the company. However, as the
person in charge, he would still have to bear the responsibility to a certain extent.
"This isn't up for discussion! Mister Bailey, let's be clear here! You're the reason that Seth and I are injured, and if
you agree to help. I'm going to treat you to a feast and all three of us can have a wonderful time here! If you refuse
to help, this is going to be your last supper!" Joel threatened coldly.
"Oh, alright, then.’ Gordon shivered in Joel's intimidating presence and agreed in the end.
He resented Leon, to begin with, so he wanted Elegante Group to be taken down as well. So long as he found
himself a scapegoat as Joel mentioned, he would not be affected.
"I'm glad you're a man of reason! Let's work together, Mister Bailey!" Joel laughed, his tone was arrogant as though
he could already see victory.
In a luxurious mansion on the outskirts, Leon was having dinner with the four women while discussing the event
that took place in Elegante Group earlier that day.
"Leon, if the Hiltons have their eyes on Elegante Group, we'll have to be extra cautious from now on!" Iris said
worriedly.
"I know! Considering Elegante Group's success so far, I have nothing to fear if the Hiltons intend to compete with us
properly, but I'm worried that they might play dirty!" Leon paused, and continued, "Anyway, I plan on focusing on
producing alchemical pills starting tomorrow so that Cynthion Group can launch the second sales drive as soon as

martial artists to protect us, we will all be much safer!" Leon said.
He made plenty of enemies ever since he came to the southern region and since he had no status in the
community, both the Cynthion Group and Elegante Group were left vulnerable.
People could barge in whenever they wanted to, which put Iris and the others' lives in danger repeatedly, and Leon
was troubled by it.
The security in both Cynthion Group and Elegante Group remained as the biggest concern and he needed to recruit
powerful martial artists to resolve the situation as soon as possible.
If he could recruit martial artists in the Semi-Almighty or Almighty state, the safety of Iris and the others would be
ensured.
