Chapter 52

Johnny was beaten so hard that he held his head and dared not move.

Joshua peeked at Leonard. Seeing Leonard’s meaningful eyes, he immediately knew that Leonard’s

anger should have dissipated, so he stopped and said to the people present, “Everyone, Johnny’s a

bully. He has ruined the reputation of Boundless Group, and now he’s no longer a member of us.

“I am deeply sorry for my ignorance.”

When people heard Joshua’s words, they couldn’t believe their ears.

Joshua Clayton, who was said to be the fierce and violent manager of the Leopard Department, was a

person with great righteousness.

After speaking, Joshua looked at Albert again.

“Man, we’ll bear all of your father’s medical expenses. I’m very sorry.”

Albert also felt somewhat unreal and hurriedly said, “Thank you, Mr. Clayton.”

At this time, Joshua pretended to be surprised and recognized Leonard.

“Oh, isn’t this Mr. Santos? I didn’t expect that we would meet here again.”

As he spoke, he stepped forward to hold Leonard’s hand enthusiastically.

He looked like he had met his dearest.

The change in his attitude also amazed Leonard.

In an instant, many people present showed shocked looks.

It turned out that Joshua knew Leonard, and no wonder Leonard was so arrogant.

On the other side, Johnny, who was squatting on the ground with his head in his arms, immediately

understood everything when he saw this scene.

He had offended someone big, and that man was Joshua’s friend.

Albert also looked at Leonard in surprise.

Unexpectedly, just after Leonard was released from prison, he not only owned a large company worth

billions of dollars but also knew Joshua from Boundless Group.

Judy was curious about Leonard at this moment.

She found that she couldn’t see through Leonard, but she also let out a long sigh of relief.

Since Leonard knew Joshua, what happened today was safe and sound.

However, just as she was relieved, what Leonard did made the whole bar dumbfounded.

He shook off Joshua’s hand and said coldly, “Do I know you?”

He gave Joshua no face.

Everyone in the bar trembled in fright, with shock in their eyes.

“He’s crazy.” Someone said.

Joshua had beaten his man, which was rare.

But Leonard was embarrassing Joshua.

The most important thing for the gangsters was the face.

Sometimes for the sake of face, they could even sacrifice their lives.

Even those who were not in the mob knew that this kind of public humiliation was a big taboo in the

mob.

“He probably got someone behind him, so he dares to act boldly.”

Some people had already begun to mourn for Leonard in their hearts.

It would definitely be very bl oody when Joshua freaked out.

Judy was so frightened that her hands trembled, and her mouth opened wide.

She thought even if Leonard knew Joshua, he couldn’t talk like this. It was too embarrassing for

Joshua.

Chapter 52

She hurriedly came out from behind the bar counter, came quietly behind Leonard, pulled his sleeve,

and said in a low voice, “Leonard, apologize to Mr. Clayton.”

And the subordinates behind Joshua had already frowned, and there was a trace of coldness between

their brows.

They were from Boundless Group’s branch in Newden City.

This time after Michael left, he especially left Joshua in Newden City to spread their power.

The people of Boundless Group were used to being arrogant, so how could they allow others to talk to

their boss like this?

But just when they were about to take action, Joshua laughed and said, “Mr. Santos, you are right. It’s

my fault to manage my man casually, and you should be angry.”

“What?”

When people heard this, their jaws dropped in shock.

One by one, their eyes widened, full of disbelief.

What did they hear?

After Leonard embarrassed Joshua, Joshua didn’t get angry but still tried to please him. Everyone was

confused.

They didn’t know what was going on between Leonard and Joshua.

Judy was also stunned.

Leonard was just a prisoner who had just been released from prison. Even if he had some powers, he

was not qualified to let Joshua treat him like this.

Judy even thought that he was Joshua’s long-lost brother.

And she thought the TV drama had gone real.

But Leonard just looked at Joshua indifferently. “I’ll let you off this time. If it happens next time, it won’t

work even if Michael pleads for you.”

When they heard Michael’s name, everyone in the bar was shocked.

At this time, one of the men behind Joshua finally couldn’t bear it anymore.

“Who do you think you are? How dare you call Mr. Davis by his name?”

As he just finished, Joshua slapped him on the face with a backhand.

With a snap sound, the man was sta ggered and almost fell to the ground.

“How could you talk to Mr. Santos like this? He’s a friend of Mr. Davis.”

Hearing Joshua’s words, the man was stunned.

In the bar, everyone suddenly realized.

It turned out that Leonard knew Michael.

“Mr. Santos, they’re a bunch of hogs. Please don’t get mad at them.” Joshua lowered his attitude to the

minimum.

Leonard was not the kind of person who was unreasonable, so he snorted, “I hope Johnny will get what

he should.”

Joshua immediately ordered his men, “Someone, take care of him.”

The subordinate behind him nodded and went over to drag Johnny away by his collar.

“Mr. Santos, Is there anything else you want me to do?”

“My friend’s father was beaten. Your company should cover the medical bills, as well as the damage to

his home.”

“Mr. Santos, you may rest assured. I can handle that. I promise.”

Joshua patted his chest and promised.

“Okay, that’s good. Remember to keep your men in check. Although your boss is powerful, the world is

so big that there are many people he can’t afford to mess with. Don’t get carried away.”

“Yes, got it.”

Joshua nodded repeatedly.

Leonard didn’t bother to talk nonsense with him, so he waved his hand and said, “Alright, you guys, get

out of here.”

Chapter 52

“Okay, sir.”

Hearing this, Joshua wiped the cold sweat off his head and left with his men as if he had gone through

a catastrophe.

After walking out of the bar, he let out a sigh of relief.

The subordinate beside him couldn’t help asking, “Mr. Clayton, you are the boss’ confidant. Even if he’s

the boss’ friend, he couldn’t treat you like that, could he?”

Hearing what his subordinates said, Joshua smiled wryly.

“They’re not like friends. Actually, even Mr. Davis is afraid of him.”

“Although Mr. Davis is not his subordinate, he works for him.”

“What?”

The eyes of Joshua’s subordinates were full of disbelief.

At the same time, cold sweats ran down their backs.

They didn’t know that the ordinary young man had such a great background.

Now he finally understood why Joshua treated Leonard like that.

“Leonard was a big shot. The small Newden City can’t keep him at all. Sooner or later, he will soar to

the sky.”
