Chapter 3564 When he saw that it was Leonel, the gardener felt relaxed and answered with a shrug, "It was Miss Fowler who orderedto cut it and plant a new one.
Mr.
Douglas, I just do whatever I'm ordered to do.
Hey! What do you need the tree for?" But Leonel didn't respond.
Instead, he just dragged the tree beside his car.
Then he pulled out two stacks of hundred-dollar bills along with two cartons of cigarettes and handed them to the gardener.

Since the tree was badly damaged and almost dead, Leonel had to hire an expert to restore it to normal.

Just make sure you take care of them.
I'll call them down now.
" This made Leonel feel embarrassed.
He knew that not only did Waylen not accept him as a son-in-law, he also didn't like him as his son anymore.
If not because of Evelyn and Daniel, Leonel wouldn't have been allowed to step inside the Fowler mansion for the rest of his life.
