Chapter 289

Leonard walked into the main hall with a grim expression and said nothing. He couldn't help but see the irony of

the situation as he looked at the large number of people. He hated being exploited as a tool for the Sawyer

family's goals. Since he wasn't their biological son, he led to be careful and never act out.

in the eyes of the others, it seemed like the Sawyer family treated him as their own. But only he knew how much

he had endured and how he had been wallding on epeshells all these years.

Xavier, the second beir of the Sawyer family, patted him on the shoulder. That woman's not bad.*

Upon hearing this, Leonard's expression grew even darker. "Don't act like you know everything."

Xavier smirked lightly and said, "Don't follow my footsteps. Look where I've ended up. Do you think you'll do any

better? As long as Dad's alive, we won't ever know what freedom is" Despite his displeasure, Leonard had never

treated him well in other aspects Leonard looked at his brother, surprised. "What are you talking about?"

Xavier let out a cold laugh. "My silly little brother, that old man's kindness is exclusively for you and your mother.

The inevitable occurred, and Leonard finally met the woman Daniel arranged for him.

The Klein family, one of Joville's top ten famous families, was an excellent match for the Sawyer family. Leonard

and the woman were close in age. At first glance, Yelena Klein, the oldest daughter of the Klein family, was

graceful, beautiful, and lovely. There was no flaw to pick on.

The elders of both families were evidently happy, participating in spirited conversations, making it obvious they

favored this marriage arrangement.

However, for Yelena and Leonard to stay there during the discussion was nothing short of torment. The two

exchanged knowing glances before discreetly excusing themselves, stating they needed to speak alone.

Yelena took the initiative to link her arm to Leonard's, but he immediately felt uncomfortable. Once they were

get a single penny of his inheritance, right?" Leonard's gaze turned cold as the cigarette dangled from his lips.

"Who the hell are you calling an illegitimate child?"

Before Leonard could d respond, someone stole his line, and a shadow appeared before him as they delivered a

smack across Yelena's face.
