Chapter 147
After leaving Newden University.
Leonard took Ethan and the other twelve influential proprietors to a common restaurant to have a light
meal.
These men wearing fine suits and bow ties gathered to have a meal in such a common restaurant. This
scene attracted the attention of many people.
If the people watching Ethan and the other twelve men knew their true identities, there would be the
biggest news in Newden tomorrow.
However, Ethan and the other twelve men naturally accepted the way they were treated. What was
more, they felt lucky and proud.
They didn’t care about where and what to eat. What was important to them was that they had the meal
with Leonard.
They even thought that since Leonard took them to such a casual place to have a meal, it clearly
showed that he treated them as close friends, not outsiders.
After the meal finished, these fourteen people said goodbye to each other. And Leonard returned to his
villa.
As soon as Leonard entered the community, he saw a beautiful and tender figure squatting at the door
of his villa. It was Marianna.
It seemed that Marianna had been waiting here for a very long time. She even fell asleep with her head
on her knees.
When Leonard walked up to her, she opened her eyes in a daze.
“You’re back?”
A small smile appeared on Marianna’s face. She was about to stand up, but because she had squatted
for too long, her legs were numb. As a result, Marianna threw herself into Leonard’s arms with a bang.
“How long have you been waiting here?”
After Leonard opened the door and helped Marianna enter the house and sit on the sofa, he asked this
question.
“I arrived at your door at five o’clock. But I didn’t expect you were not at home. Thinking you were busy
with your things, I didn’t call you.”
Marianna said it embarrassedly.
“What do you want from me?”

“I’m going back to the Rodgers family with my mother tomorrow.”
When talking about this, Marianna was a little depressed.
She didn’t want to go back, but the Rodgers family’s ban on Leonard taught her a lot, making her think
through a lot of things.
Marianna knew that if Leonard was hurt because of her, she would feel terrible and guilty.
And she heard from Melanie that if she didn’t go back to the Rodgers family, Leonard would get heavier
attacks from the Rodgers family.
Marianna knew very well how powerful the Rodgers family was, so she finally compromised.
“Why?” Leonard asked, feeling confused.
He knew very well that as soon as Marianna returned to the Rodgers family, she would be forced to
marry Zavier.
“My family will no longer force me to marry Zavier.”
Marianna smiled, and to reassure Leonard, she lied..
“Then, Leonard, I have to go now.”
Marianna stood up and said it.
“Let me walk you out.” Leonard walked Marianna out to the door.
“Okay, you can go back.”
Marianna said it, turned around and opened the door. The moment she stepped out of the threshold
with one foot, her body suddenly stopped.
The next moment, she suddenly turned around, stood on tiptoes, and kissed Leonard gently on the
face. Then she said with a bright smile, “This is a reward for your performance during this period.”
After saying that, she waved to Leonard and left without looking back.
But the moment she turned around, she couldn’t stop shedding tears.
Looking at the figure of Marianna who was gradually going away, Leonard couldn’t help frowning
slightly. He still felt that Marianna was a little strange today.
He thought, ‘But it will be a good thing if the Rodgers family really stops forcing Marianna to marry
Zavier.
After all, they are Marianna’s family who will be related to her all the time.
Even if Marianna has confronted her family by running away, she has to think about her
Marianna who walked out of Shoal Manor got directly into a commercial vehicle.
Melanie and Jason were both in the car.
parents.
“Are you done saying goodbye to that guy? He is just an ordinary man. How can you be bewitched by
him? “That guy should feel lucky. If you weren’t willing to go back with me, I would have made him pay
for it.” Melanie said it coldly.
Marianna said nothing. She just looked back in the direction of the villa, her eyes gradually dimming…
On the other side.
Ethan, who was separated from Leonard, had just returned to his manor. Before he had time to drink a
glass of water, his subordinates came to report that they had a guest.
“It’s already eight o’clock. Who is coming to visit me at this time?”
When Ethan was in doubt, a majestic old man walked in quickly, showing his might.
“Ethan, long time no see.”
The old man laughed loudly, and his voice was full of energy.
It was Tyler Morris, the head of the Morris family.
“Oh, Tyler, it’s you. Welcome.”
Ethan was filled with surprise in his heart.
He thought, “Although I have influences in Newden, it can’t be comparable to the Morris family in
Imperial City.”
“Mr. Morris, when did you arrive in Newden? If you informed me in advance, I would have picked you
up at the airport.”
Ethan asked Tyler to sit down and let his ser vant serve coffee.
At the same time, he was thinking hard in his heart, guessing why Tyler came to him.
Ethan had some connections with Tyler when he was young, but later, Tyler was in Imperial City, and
he was in Newden. What was more, they had no business contacts. So they hadn’t seen each other for
several years.
He guessed that as the head of the Morris family, Tyler came to Newden in person, something big must
happen.
After Tyler sat down, he didn’t beat around the bush. He went straight to the point. “This time, I came to
Newden to ask you for a favor, Ethan.”
“Huh?”
Ethan’s doubts deepened.
“What can I do for you, Tyler?”

“There is a young man named Leonard Santos in Newden. Have you heard of him, Ethan?”
Ethan’s expression suddenly changed.
“What? Tyler came for Leonard. Did Leonard offend Tyler before?” He thought.
“I know him. But I am just curious. Mr. Morris, is there any grudge between you and Leonard?”

“He killed my grandson. I come here to ask you to help me. Ethan, I hope you can use your power to
make his company go bankrupt. I want him to experience humiliation and loneliness before I kill him.”
When Tyler said this, his tone became menacing.
That terrifying murderous intention made the air in the entire room seem to become cold.
“Um…”
Ethan thought for a while and shook his head.
“To be honest, Tyler, I have a close relationship with Leonard, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to help you
with this.”
“What?”
Tyler’s eyes suddenly became sharp, and he stared at Ethan. “I didn’t expect that you would reject me.”
Ethan smiled bitterly. “Even if I don’t reject you, I don’t dare to mess with Leonard. Tyler, listen, Leonard
is very dangerous, so you’d better change your mind.”
“Behind him is Anthony. Even though the Morris family is powerful, I am afraid you can’t afford to offend
Anthony, right?”
Now, Tyler showed a disapproving look.
He thought. The origin of Anthony is very mysterious. It is said that he came from the Gora Group.
There are also rumors that there is a huge force behind the Gora Group.
Compared with the Gora Group, the Morris family is really weak!
“No wonder he dared to kill my grandson.”
At this moment, Tyler also frowned.
“I don’t care Anthony or the Gora Group. In my eyes, there are only living people and dead people.”
At this moment, a cold voice sounded.
Hearing the sound, Ethan suddenly raised his head. His look showed that he seemed to see a ghost.
That was because, at this moment, someone else appeared in the living room where there had been
only Ethan and Tyler just now.
Unlike Ethan, Tyler had a joyful look on his face.
“Mr. Truman, there you are!”
