No 1 Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 298

Leo hadn't felt the murderous intention hidden in the current peace. He had already made his way home by then.

"Dad!"

As soon as the door opened, Emilia ran over with open arms.

Leo squatted down, hugged her, and kissed her on the face. Then he released her and asked with a smile, "Where's Mom?"

Emilia looked upstairs and pouted in dissatisfaction, "She has been busy since she was back and does have time for me."

Leo smiled and asked, "How about playing with Dad?"

"Great!"

Emilia immediately beamed.

Having enjoyed themselves for a while, Emilia felt a bit tired. Leo picked her up carefully and went upstairs.

Lydia got up from the chair when he opened the door and asked, "Is she asleep?"

Leo nodded. "Yes."

Lydia seemed guilty when hearing that. "My hands are tired with business... So I didn't have time for her."

"It's okay. You can always count on me."

Leo shook his head with a smile and told Lydia, "Please don't take the burden alone."

Lydia gave him a slight nod. She felt so touched and asked, "How about going to the L Group with me tomorrow?"

Leo asked in surprise, "Why?"

"Because I want you to be in the company."

Lydia said with mild eyes, "The market value of the L Group will increase several times as soon as the urban construction project is complete. When everything is back on track, I'll hand over the group to you."

Leo got a warming feeling in his heart. Lydia wanted to give the company she struggled to build. That's so generous.

He knew very well that the L Group meant more than money to Lydia. It was her most precious thing.

She started this company from scratch without spending a penny for her family. She had been away from home for many years and refused to return. That was her way to prove to her family that she could live just as well without them.

However, Leo asked her quietly with thoughtful eyes, "That's not the real reason you want me in the group, is it?"

Lydia fell in silence. She clenched her hands and released them soon.

After a long while, she raised her head, looked at Leo, and said, "You're right. I want you to handle my family."

Leo's eyes suddenly turned cold. He stayed silent, waiting for Lydia to continue.

"If you go back to Valenham with me without taking a position, they would insult you. It will be better if you are the vice president of our company."

Hearing Lydia's words, Leo looked at her with gentle eyes.

He was smiling, not refusing.

He clearly knew what Lydia was worried about. He might be the most potent hidden force in Emerdale now, but no one knew who he was, let alone those royal families in YD Country.

Leo knew they still saw him as the good-for-nothing bum who doesn't even have a job.

He didn't care what they thought. They were just Lydia's distant family to Leo.

"The royal family of Country YD... I hope you won't be too harsh on her, or I wouldn't mind being a villain for once..."

A cold light flashed over Leo's dark eyes.

The next day, as the sun rose...

After dropping Emilia off at school, Lydia went to the L Group with Lydia.

However, both of them keenly felt that the L Group seemed a bit different from usual.

None of the staff passing by had greeted Lydia. They were just nodding.

Leo's eyes focused. He looked back at Lydia and saw her walking forward faster with a relaxed look.

"President Henderson!"

Just by then, Irene hurried towards her, with a dignified look on her face.

"Or... to force Lydia to abdicate?"

The executive meeting was going on in order. In the oval-table conference room, Lydia was sitting in the middle, with her secretary Rachel standing beside her. On both sides of the table, the company executives were seated in order of their positions.

Lydia's pretty eyes skimmed over everyone and said calmly, "Let me brief the meeting agenda again... we still have a vacant vice president position after Mollie left..."

"Wow..."

The eyes of the executives changed greatly when hearing that. All of them wished they could sit on that spot.

However, Lydia paused and continued in a low voice, "I now announce that Mr. Cohen will join us as the vice president."

As soon as she finished speaking, Leo stepped forward and grinned. "My name is Leo."

Other people fell in dead silence.

They looked at Leo in astonishment, with huge waves surging their minds.

The L Group staff were more than familiar with who Leo was. He was Lydia, the president's husband.

They wondered what this was supposed to mean.

"Is Lydia trying to keep all the goodies within her family?"

Females dominated the leadership of the L Group. They were now looking at Leo and Lydia. For the first time, they felt a bit dissatisfied with her.

However, they wouldn't dare to argue due to Lydia's authority.

"I don't agree!"

Just by then, a loud voice came from outside the door.

A mature woman in short hair walked in. She was in suits and on high heels. Her red lips, narrowed slanted eyes, and the domineering aura pretty much said who she was.

She was the vice of three presidents in succession, one of the founders of the L Group, Sophia Walsh.

Lydia raised her eyebrows slightly with threatening lights flashing in her eyes. She checked Sophia Walsh from head to toe.

Sophia grinned a cold smile and said to Lydia, "How could you forget me? Why didn't you invite me to such an important executive meeting?"
