Chapter 422
“Leon, you were great!” Iris was too worried and once she was finally able to relax, she could no
longer
contain her excitement and threw herself into Leon’s arms.
Theodore was one of the best martial artists of his age and Iris was stunned by the fact that Leon
managed to
defeat Theodore.
She suddenly realized that Leon was far more capable than she imagined and felt more confident than

Meanwhile, Gilbert’s expression darkened as he clenched his fists at the sight of his daughter throwing
herself into Leon’s arms. He reminded himself that Leon did the Young Family a favor and suppressed
his anger, before turning to leave.
Both Leon and Iris were unaware of Gilbert’s presence and Leon was clueless about the resentment
Gilbert felt toward him. If Leon noticed Gilbert’s attitude toward him, he would not have been so
optimistic.
“Iris, it’s still early. Let’s head back to the office,” Leon said as he threw his arm around her shoulders,
feeling slightly disappointed that he could not act overly clingy in public.
“Yeah.” Iris flushed and pulled away from his arms, before following him into the car.
In Elegante Group, Leon remembered that there was something else that he needed to do, so he left
on his electric bike shortly after sending Iris back to the office.
As soon as Leon left the president’s office, Ashwin stepped inside.
“Mister Mercer, what is it?” Iris asked.
“Miss Young, Leon has been taking leaves for the past few days continuously. This is madness! You
need to talk to him about this!” Ashwin complained.
Leon took half a day off each day since a few days ago to work on the production of the alchemical

said. She was not sure about what was wrong with Ashwin lately, but he would not stop complaining
about Leon and she was beginning to lose her patience over it.
“Miss Young, Leon’s responsible for our biggest client and he has great responsibilities resting on his
shoulders! If you allow him to laze around like this, not only will this affect the company’s operation, it’ll affect our reputation as well! You can’t just let him do whatever he wants!” Ashwin insisted.
“I told you that it’s fine. Leon can do whatever he wants. Stop reporting to me over the smallest things!”
Iris said impatiently.
“He can do whatever he wants? Miss Young, are you joking?” Stunned, Ashwin could not believe what
he was hearing.
“Do I look like I’m joking?” Iris questioned sharply.
“But, why? Why are you letting him do whatever he wants?” Ashwin asked in disbelief.
“Because he’s my boyfriend! Is that a sufficient explanation for you?!”
