“Kate Spencer?” Leo paused for a second. He hadn’t heard about this name.
So he refused, “Tell her I am busy.”
So Caroline called the front desk lady to decline to the appointment.
But soon, Caroline returned. This time, she seemed a bit awkward, “Mr. Cohen, the lady said her name used to be Kate Lawson.”
“Kate Lawson?” hearing that, Leo looked quite surprised.
Actually, he knew Kate was actually an orphan adopted by the Lawsons. But he didn’t know what her real family name was.
It had never occurred to him that she was actually one of the Spencers.
So Leo replied, “Let her in.”
Soon, the door was opened.
Kate, wearing a lavender dress, walked in elegantly.
Meanwhile, an old man and two middle-aged men followed her in.
“Leo, nice to meet you again.”
Kate took a seat opposite him. The smile appearing on her delicate face seemed thrilled. But meanwhile, mixed feelings were hidden within.
“Kate…”
It had been a long time since they departed from the Lawsons’ Residence back then.
When facing her again, Leo seemed a bit absent-minded.
Meanwhile, Caroline, who was standing beside, also fixed her eyes on Kate surprisedly.
Wearing the typical lavender dress, Kate still looked the same as before.
However, in Leo’s view, she felt totally different.
She seemed to have grown something special deep down her heart.
Now she actually felt noble, just like a princess getting the rest of the world amazed.
Then Leo took a look at the old man.
Actually, as soon as the old man stepped in, he could feel the strong power coming from his body. So he could tell this old man must be a sophisticated warrior.
Thus, since there was such an elite escorting Kate, now she must be superior, Leo supposed.
Meanwhile, Keegan couldn’t help staring at Leo with great alert.
He could tell this young man felt incredibly powerful. Driven by instinct, he got closer to Kate to get prepared for prevention.
Kate smiled to reply, “Now my name is Kate Spencer. As you can tell, I am from the Spencers, a royal family in Valenham.”
Hearing that, Leo put on a serious expression.
Another royal family in Valenham? The Spencers?
But then Kate continued while giggling, “Well, if you want, you can still deem me a girl from the Lawsons.”
“Well, I’d better call you Miss Spencer from now on.” Leo shook his head.
Now he knew the girl named Kate Lawson had gone. The one sitting in front of him felt more like a stranger to him.
“What can I do for you?” he asked alertly.
Though now he was in influential status, this lady could still easily ruin Atlas with the help of the Spencers.
She was deadly dangerous.
Kate simply smiled, “Come on, just drop the alert against me. What happened last time won’t happen again, I promise.”
While Kate was talking, Emmanuel looked quite surprised as he stared at Leo.
He had never expected that this man was actually the real owner of J Group. Meanwhile, he was also the boss of the branch of Atlas in Hopkins.
Nathaniel literally interrupted the talk between Leo and Kate by smirking, “Miss Spencer, that’s the guy you are gonna turn to? I really doubt if he could ever kill a little chicken.”
The way he spoke sounded quite disdainful as he stared at Leo with great contempt.
Then, the one titled as the Guard of Northernland would be required to compete in the final level of the Assembly. The winner could take the title of Northernland.
Though all families valued it as a rare opportunity to stand out, in the eyes of Leo, he only deemed it a simple game.
Because he himself was exactly the Dragonlord of Northernland.
That was why he showed no interest in this competition.
“Sorry, I don’t want to.” Leo declined to her request, “I am afraid you’d better turn to someone else.”
As soon as he finished, Nathaniel, including the members of the Association, all laughed out.
“Miss Spencer, what a pity! This ‘top fighter’ you are gonna turn to actually declined to your request after you have paid all these efforts to come to him. The name of Spencer doesn’t seem to work well here.”
“Come on, he was just making excuse to evade the threat of death. But I gotta say he was making a wise choice.”
Sitting still, Kate remained a smile on her face.
However, Leo could notice how hard she clenched her fists.
After a short silence, Leo suddenly looked at Keegan, “The old gentleman right over there looks like one-in-a-million. Why don’t you let him compete in the Assembly?”
Kate gritted her teeth to reply, “By the order of my family, I shall never turn to any fighters from ours.”
Not until then did he notice that Kate was being pushed aside after she returned to the Spencers.
At this moment, Nathaniel walked over, “Miss Spencer, because of your attitude just now, I am afraid we won’t be able to provide you with any candidates to compete.”
Kate then stood up and was about to leave.
But Leo stopped her, “Wait!”
Kate turned around, expecting his answer.
Leo turned to look at Nathaniel. Then he stated, “Yeah, I am not interested in that stupid Assembly, but I don’t think anyone of you could ever fight either opponent in the Assembly.”
“Kate was right about that. So what are you laughing at?”
