The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 37

Chapter 37 

Drip! 

A drop of cold sweat fell from Leo’s face and wetted the ground. 

Fear spread in Leo’s heart and engulfed his entire body, causing his heart to beat wildly. 

He was doomed! 

He was completely in trouble! 

Leo looked at Haylan and Lucy with an ugly expression. It was as if his throat was being grabbed by an invisible hand, and he couldn’t say a word. 

The young man who delivered the money to Lucy sneered and said, “Mr. Richards, you were so impressive just now. Why aren’t you saying anything?” 

When Leo heard this, he noticed the young man again. His expression changed as he said with a trembling voice, “Mr. Kwen, you, why are you here?” 

The young man in front of him was called Simon. He was the young master of a super large family. His personal riches. were estimated at billions of dollars. 

Some people said that Simon was the illegitimate son of a big shot, some said that Simon was the young master of an eight-hundred-year-old aristocratic family, and some even said that the assets of Simon’s family had already exceeded two trillion dollars. He was undoubtedly the richest man in the country… 

It was precisely because he was really rich and had a mysterious and terrifying background that he had the title of 

Sea Emperor in the circle of rich second-generation heirs! 

Leo had never expected that Simon and Lucy, the two big shots, would be standing beside a security guard like Haylan. 

Haylan was too hard to deal with! 

Leo looked at Lucy and Simon and felt hurting all over. 

“What? Leo, can’t I come to the place where you are?” Simon coldly spoke. 

“I… didn’t mean that.” Leo’s eyes were filled with fear, and he was stuttering. 

He could not even afford to offend Lucy. Now that Simon was involved, he felt a headache coming on and didn’t know what to do. 

When the other rich second-generation heirs saw Simon and Lucy, their expressions changed drastically. A trace of shock and fear flashed across their eyes. 

In the circle of rich second-generation heirs, Simon and Lucy were definitely existences standing at the peak! 

Simon’s gaze was cold as he glanced at Leo. Then, he looked at those rich second-generation heirs. “Are you all causing trouble for my friend?” 

Lucy also looked over coldly. “Is that so?” 

“No, no.” 

“It’s a misunderstanding. Miss Zabel, Mr. Kwen, this is just at misunderstanding.” 

Those rich second-generation heirs were immediately frightened out of their wits. They hurriedly shook their heads and said that it was a misunderstanding, their faces 

filled with fear. 

What a joke. Even Leo couldn’t afford to offend Simon and Lucy, so how could they afford to offend Simon and Lucy? 

“Miss Zabel, it’s a misunderstanding,” Leo hurriedly 

explained. 

“Is it a misunderstanding? Mr. Richards, I heard it just now. You said you wanted to kill my friend. Is this a misunderstanding?” Lucy stared at Leo again. 

Leo’s face turned pale as he hurriedly said, “It’s a misunderstanding. All of this is really a misunderstanding. Actually, I’m here to uphold justice for Mr. Jaber.” 

Then, he turned around and slapped Mike twice. He said angrily, “Bastard, how dare you provoke Mr. Jaber? You’re simply courting death! 

“Kneel down now and apologize to Mr. Jaber!” 

Being slapped by Leo, Mike was instantly stunned. 

He would never have thought that Leo, who had come to support him, would support Haylan in the blink of an eye and beat him up for Haylan. 

The situation changed so quickly that he could not react in time. 

“Damn it, are you deaf? Kneel down and apologize!” Leo roared. 

Mike was so frightened by this roar that he trembled. He knelt down with a plop and kowtowed to Haylan, apologizing. “Mr. Jaber, I’m sorry. I was wrong.” 

He finally understood what was going on. 

Initially, Leo wanted to stand up for him. However, after Simon and Lucy stood up for Haylan, Leo’s expression changed. 

Obviously, Lucy and Simon were existences that even Leo could not afford to offend! 

That was why Mike knelt down so quickly and looked at Haylan with different looks in his eyes. 

Haylan could get two top-notch rich second-generation heirs. to protect him, so Haylan’s background was definitely not simple. Haylan was not someone Mike could provoke. 

“You should apologize to my mother!” Haylan said coldly. 

Without another word, Mike immediately knelt in front of Felicia and begged in a trembling voice, “Mrs. Felicia, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I was blinded. Please, let me go, okay?” 

“Mrs. Felicia, it’s all Mike’s fault. You can deal with him however you want. I guarantee that he won’t fight or talk back,” Leo said humbly. 

“That’s right. Mrs. Felicia, feel free to hit and scold Mike until you’re satisfied.” 

Mr. Baker and the rich second-generation heirs also spoke one after another. They smiled obsequiously and fawned over Felicia. 

Felicia was stunned again. 

Initially, she thought that she could not afford to provoke Leo and those rich second-generation heirs. In the blink of an eye, this group of rich second-generation heirs actually apologized to her. 

She pinched her thigh hard, thinking that she was dreaming. 

It was so painful that she bared her teeth. 

This was not a dream. It was real! 

“Mom, they’ve apologized to you. Do you want to forgive them?” Haylan asked. 

“Mrs. Felicia, since everything is Mike’s fault, you can deal with him.” 

Lucy and Simon also looked at Felicia with a smile. 

Felicia was flattered. She stood there in a daze, not knowing 

what to do. 

She was just an ordinary housewife. How could she ever face such a scene? 

After a long while, Felicia came back to her senses. She held Haylan’s hand and said in a trembling voice, “Haylan, you, you handle it.” 

She had never faced such a big scene before and did not know how to deal with it. 

“Sure.”
