Chapter 76

Reg’s birthday banquet was held on a cruise ship 30 miles away from Newden City Sea.

On that morning, Leonard wore casual clothes and went with Rex to the airport where the helicopter

was parked.

Because it was at sea, one needed to take a helicopter to get the cruise ship, and there were already

many business celebrities from Newden City gathering at the airport.

These business celebrities were all dressed in costumes, with men dressed in suits and leather shoes

while women were all dressed up beautifully.

Leonard was also a little surprised. It seemed that Reg’s birthday banquet was quite impressive.

“Mr. Santos, what a coincidence.”

After seeing Leonard, Beryl hurried over.

She wore a skirt with a V-neck, whose fair and slender neck and fine and graceful collarbone was like a

work of art.

Beryl was with snow-white skin and red lips, a slight raised nose, and bright red corners of the mouth,

so no matter who saw her, their heartbeats would inevitably speed up.

Beryl was Cherry’s friend and naturally received an invitation.

At this moment, Beryl looked at Leonard with a bit of fear.

Apparently, the events of the previous few days had left a deep impression on her.

And even if Leonard didn’t come to heckle, Beryl would be respected by Leonard’s status in the Santos

Group. Leonard nodded as usual.

The Moreno family had transferred all their property to Santos Group, which made Leonard quite

satisfied.

“Miss Moreno, we meet again.”

Then, a very smelly voice sounded.

A well-dressed man Jordan Collins walked over, looking at Beryl with scorching gazes.

But when Beryl saw Jordan, her expression was a bit flat, as if she didn’t have a lot of interest in him.

“Miss Moreno, we are destined to meet each other from afar, and Miss Moreno has become more and

more beautiful after a few days.

“A human body has only 206 bones, but when I saw you, I had 207 bones.”

Beryl froze for a moment, apparently not understanding what Jordan meant.

Next to Beryl, Leonard couldn’t help chuckling, “This is the freshest and most refined hooliganism I’ve

ever heard.”

Hearing Leonard’s interruption, Jordan showed a bit of displeasure on his face and asked, “Miss

Moreno, who is this?”

Seemingly aware of Jordan’s dissatisfaction with Leonard, Beryl went directly to take Leonard’s arm

and leaned against the

arm.

Then Beryl chuckled and introduced, “This is my boyfriend, Leonard Santos.”

Jordan was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

He thought, “I had adored Beryl for a long time, but unexpectedly she loved Leonard.”

With an ugly face, Jordan looked at Leonard from the beginning to the end, detailing Leonard’s

technique of tying his shoelaces.

Finally, Jordan said jealously, “Miss Moreno, what kind of vision did you have? You just chose such a

bumpkin. “Leonard didn’t cost more than one thousand dollars for a suit of clothes. How could such a

person be worthy of you?” Jordan said and pointed to his clothes, “Custom-made suit, famous brand

leather shoes, had you seen this pair of gold-rimmed glasses? It was from a foreign, worth ten

thousand dollars.

“Leonard, did you feel particularly inferior? Did you think you can compare with me?”

Leonard glanced at Jordan quietly and said lightly, “Stu pid.”

Then Beryl put his arm around Beryl’s slender waist and walked towards the helicopter parked not far

away,

Beryl trembled all over, and she didn’t expect that Leonard would hug her.

Instinctively, Beryl wanted to break free but found that Leonard’s hands were like iron tongs, making it

difficult for her to break free.

“You have to do all the acting. Otherwise, how can you deceive Jordan.” Leonard whispered in Beryl’s

car.

On the other side, Jordan ground his teeth with anger.

If it wasn’t Reg’s birthday banquet, Jordan couldn’t help but wanted to rush up and beat Leonard.

Leonard boarded the helicopter with his arms around Beryl.

Soon, Jordan also sat up, sitting opposite Leonard, looking at Leonard and Beryl with eyes that were

about to burst into

flames.

Originally, Beryl thought that Leonard would have released his arm when she boarded the helicopter.

But when Beryl saw Jordan sitting up, she could only lèt Leonard continue to hug herself, but her face

was very hot.

After a while, the helicopter was full of people and officially started to take off.

Seeing Leonard, everyone was somewhat surprised.

They knew Beryl, and Leonard was holding Beryl. Could it be Beryl’s boyfriend?

However, Leonard’s outfit was a bit too casual.

After all, it was Reg’s birthday banquet, and Reg was also a well-known figure in Newden City, so it

would be a bit out of place for Leonard to wear only casual clothes on such a formal occasion.

“Um… Mr. Santos, could you take your hand back?”

The helicopter took off, and the sound of the propeller was loud. Taking advantage of this moment,

Beryl whispered to Leonard.

“Oh.” Leonard withdrew his hand with a smirk.

Leonard did it on purpose, and Beryl took him as a shield, so wasn’t he allowed to take advantage of it?

But to be honest, Beryl’s body was soft, and it was quite comfortable to hug her.

Leonard withdrew his hand, and Beryl breathed a sigh of relief.

Being in such close contact with a strange man, Beryl could only feel her heart pounding.

Just as Leonard released the hand, suddenly the helicopter lifted up a section, causing a jolt that made

Beryl’s body unstable. She lay down in Leonard’s arms, looking like she was actively hugging him.

“Um… Miss Moreno, are you a little too enthusiastic?” Leonard said playfully.

Leonard took advantage and pretended to be innocent.

Beryl hurriedly got up from Leonard’s body and stroked the hair sc at tered in front of her eyes, with

flushed cheeks.

Beryl thought bitterly, “Leonard must be deliberately taking advantage of herself.”

After flying for about 20 minutes, the helicopter landed on the deck of the cruise ship.

The passengers got off the helicopter one after another.

Jordan walked in front of Leonard and Beryl.

Jordan had just jumped out of the hatch when he saw Reg and his granddaughter welcoming below,

and the guests greeted Reg one after another.

After seeing Jordan, Reg showed a smile on his face.

“Jordan, you are getting more handsome, completely inheriting your father’s excellent genes.”

People around can’t help squinting.

Before seeing Jordan, Reg nodded slightly to the other guests as if he had greeted them.

But facing Jordan, Reg took the initiative to make a joke, illustrating Jordan’s extraordinary status.

Jordan couldn’t help being a little proud, and he didn’t forget to turn his head and take a look at

Leonard on the helicopter to show the gap between Leonard and himself.

Leonard didn’t care at all.

Chapter 76

After jumping off the hatch, Leonard helped Beryl down in the way of a gentleman.

But at this moment, Reg directly abandoned Jordan, who was next to him, hurried up to meet Leonard,

and said in an excited voice, “Mr. Santos, you have come. I heard that you took this flight, so I came

specifically to welcome you.

“It makes me so happy that you can join my birthday banquet.”
