Chapter 2651
"Waiting for me?" Leon was taken aback and remained confused.
Hugo called him saying that Caleb agreed to his terms and intended to meet with him in person to
discuss the details.
Seeing as Caleb and the others did not leave the hotel, he immediately realized that they stayed to wait
for him.
However, he did not know Elder Daglesh, Elder Rathbournes, and the others, so he could not figure out
why these people were waiting for him.

influential families in the western region. The Morrisons aren't the only ones who wish to work with
Cynthion Group."
"I see!" Realization dawned on Leon and he finally understood why there were so many people waiting
for him.
If he was not mistaken, the alchemical pills he presented in the bouquet had a great marketing effect
and attracted the attention of multiple families.
Still, he did not anticipate all these people to wait for his return at the hotel.
According to what Renee said, they seemed to have been waiting for a long time and this caught him
off-guard.
"Hugh, you're finally back! Here we are thinking that you are attending to some important business.
Turns out that you just went to have fun,"
Jayden reprimanded.
When Hugo called Leon earlier, Leon mentioned that he needed to take care of something and could
not return shortly.
At the time, Jayden assumed he was dealing with something important.
However, seeing Leon's tipsy appearance, he realized Leon simply went drinking and this deepened
his displeasure against Leon.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'm sorry! I didn't know so many people were waiting for me. Please find it in your hearts to forgive
me." Leon smiled apologetically.
"Is that supposed to justify your actions? You kept US waiting here in the hotel while you went out
drinking. Do you take US for fools?" Jayden scoffed.
He assumed that Leon was just a vice president and since he already convinced the others to team up
against Leon, he remained arrogant and showed Leon no respect at all.
However, before he could continue, he felt a sharp pain in his leg as Caleb kicked him.
"Mister Carn, Mister Caldicot. It's been a while!" Caleb signaled with his eyes for Jayden to shut up and
greeted Howard and Fletcher.
He recognized the two of them and knew that they were both capable Dragon Guards.
Naturally, the others noticed the same and almost immediately recognized Howard and Fletcher upon a
closer look.
