Chapter 97: Chapter 97

At this moment, Dennis finally realized that he had messed with someone he should not be messing with.

No ordinary force could possess such fierce and armed subordinates.

Furthermore, Rex had already killed four of Dennis‘ men. The people who could just casually murder this were either madmen or powerful enough to disregard life and laws.

And Rex and the other men in black were obviously the latter.

After all, Dennis was just a nouveau riche who had a bunch of thugs as subordinates. He might have the power to oppress the weak, but he was nothing in the face of real power.

At this moment, when Rex put the pistol on his forehead, Dennis was already trembling with fright.

He constantly begged for mercy. “I–I was wrong, Mr. Santos, I’m begging you, please forgive me.”

Seeing this scene, Kendrick, who was on the side, was completely dumbfounded.

Dennis had just bowed his head and begged Leonard for mercy.

Also, these people came to help Leonard and called him Mr. Santos.

As far as Kendrick knew, Leonard was from an ordinary family. Otherwise, he would not have been imprisoned for three years for beating Kylo.

What on earth was going on?

The surrounding students were shocked beyond words could describe. They thought Leonard was weak and powerless, yet liked to cause trouble and even made the teachers in the school suffer.

Unexpectedly, this was not the case at all. Leonard was simply confident.

And Dennis kneeling on the ground like a dog only proved Leonard had the right to be.

Emily had a complicated look on her face.

She already figured out Leonard definitely had an extraordinary status because he knew Waylon from the banquet last time.

However, she realized she still underestimated Leonard now that Rex and the other men appeared.

“He only just got out of prison. How did he garner such power?

“Was he always hiding when he dated me? But that wouldn’t make sense either. If he’s really that powerful, he wouldn’t have gone to prison.”

The more Emily thought about it, the more confused she became. She felt that Leonard was covered by a layer of fog, preventing her from seeing his true appearance clearly.

However, one thing she was certain of was that Leonard had risen from the ashes, while she had become a joke.

“Mr. Santos, what should we do with him?”

Rex asked.

“I heard that he got rich overnight. Taking his money will probably hurt him more than taking his life.”

Dennis did not immediately understand what Leonard meant.

Neither did the surrounding people.

No matter how strong Leonard was, how was he going to rob someone?

However, Rex had already understood what Leonard meant. Hence, he took out his phone and made a call.

“I want the Fanco Group to go bankrupt.”

Rex said in a serious voice.

As the person in charge of Ibrahim’s forces in Newden City, Rex had control of a terrifying amount of resources.

After making a phone call, Rex stood on the side and waited quietly.

Leonard went to help Kendrick up.

“Mr. Yerburge, here is my business card. I still have something to do today; let’s go for a drink next time.”

14:44 As he spoke, he reached out to take the gun from Rex, pointed at Dennis, and said, “If I know that you dare to take revenge on my teacher, I will take your life. Do you understand?”

Dennis nodded hurriedly.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Santos, I won’t do anything to your teacher until I die.”

“Good”

Just as Dennis heaved a sigh of relief after Leonard finished speaking, he heard a gunshot.

His knee was instantly pierced by a bullet.

“Ah!”

Dennis directly clutched his knees and fell to the ground.

Leonard did not even bother to take a second look. He patted Kendrick on the shoulder and sat directly in Rex’s car.

The group of people got into the car one after another and soon disappeared at the end of the road.

Kendrick looked at the leaving car and thought of how Leonard casually shot Dennis just now. He could not help but have mixed feelings.

Leonard was really no longer the Leonard of three years ago.

Although Leonard had an unyielding character and a bad temper three years ago, he was definitely not someone who would just shoot someone casually.

What happened to Leonard?

On the other side, Emily hurried to help Dennis.

Beads of sweat kept falling from Dennis’s head. His knees were hurting horribly, but he seemed to be glad that he at least did not lose his life.

Just as he was somewhat glad, his phone rang.

“Dennis, who did you offend? Do you know that because of you, someone called just now and cut off all my upstream capital chain, saying that it was because of you, Dennis, who offended someone?”

Upon hearing this, Dennis’s expression changed instantly.

At this moment, he even forgot the pain in his knee.

“Mr. Lee, I don’t know either.”

“You don’t know? Dennis, I don’t care if you know it or not; our partnership is over.”

After finishing speaking, the call was already hung up before Dennis could explain.

“Beep, beep…”

Right after the call was over, the phone rang again.

Dennis already had a guess at this time.

He bit the bullet and picked it up.

“Dennis, I’ve decided to give the piece of land that Fanco Group was in charge of developing to someone else. Good luck…”

Then, the call was hung up right away too.

Dennis stood still, dumbfounded.

That land was the next focus of the Fanco Group. He spent most of his money on it, and now it was no longer his.

“Beep, beep…”

The phone rang continuously, but Dennis did not dare to pick it up.

He could not help but think of Rex’s words, wanting the Fanco Group to go bankrupt.

Now, the Fanco Group was really going to go bankrupt.

Meanwhile, Leonard sat in the car and headed all the way to the suburbs of Newden City.

He soon came to the gate of a villa in the suburbs.

At the gate of the villa, many men in black were standing guard.

14:44 Rex hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice, “Mr. Santos, the person responsible for hunting down the traitor this time is Jaguar Anderson. He’s cocky and egotistical, and he doesn’t respect pretty much anyone. Mr. Clarkson told him to listen to my command while he’s in Newden City, but he won’t even pick up my calls, not to mention listen to me.”

While talking, the two had already arrived at the gate.

Rex took a step forward and said, “Tell Jaguar to come out, Mr. Santos is here.”

Hearing Rex’s words, a strong man in black nodded, then turned around and walked into the villa.

Leonard and Rex waited patiently.

However, nothing happened for the next twenty minutes.

Leonard frowned slightly.

Was Jaguar deliberately making him wait to display his authority?
