Chapter 1816


    “Miss Thompson, out of respect for you and the Thompsons, this ends now! ” Joel took a deep breath


    to suppress his anger.


    Since Roanne was determined to protect Leon and John was there to step in at any moment, he knew


    that he had no choice but to give up.


    Naturally, Joel did not know that Leon was far more powerful than he anticipated and without Roanne’s


    interference, he would have suffered worse injuries.


    “You got lucky this time, kid. Consider yourself spared this time! You’ll pay for this in the future!” Joel


    red at Leon and turned to Seth. “Let’s go!”


    The group was about to leave when Leon stepped forward with a smirk.” Hang on!”


    “What else do you want, Leon?” Joel stopped and red at him coldly.


    “What do you think? Mister Hiltons, youmanded Seth to barge in here and injured our security


    guards! As soon as you find out that we have the upper hand, you want to leave. Things don’t always


    go your way!” Leon mocked.


    “What?”


    Joel and Seth gaped in disbelief.


    Joel only decided to let Leon go out of respect for Roanne and the Thompsons; not only did Leon not


    appreciate it, but he also refused to let Joel and Seth go and Joel could not understand what gave


    Leon the confidence to do so.


    “What do you want, then?” He gritted out.


    “I-’ Leon opened his mouth to speak but was instantly interrupted by John.


    “Mister Wolf, you didn’t take much damage or lose anything! Why don’t you just let this slide?’ John


    said.


    The Hiltons were one of the most powerful families and even if Leon was a capable man, he could not


    afford to cross the Hiltons.


    Since Joel decided to leave, John wanted Leon to let go, or he would suffer the consequences of


    crossing the Hiltons.


    “Yeah! Leon, let it go!” Roanne said as she did not want the situation to escte further.


    “No way! I’m not letting this slide! I’m going to seek justice for Mason and the other two!” Leon said with


    determination.

    Though the Hiltons were formidable, Mason and the other two martial artists were


    Leon’s subordinates and he refused to stand idly by when his subordinates were injured for no reason.


    “What?’ Mason and the other two young martial artists were shocked, as they could tell that Joel came


    from a powerful family, while they were simply thugs who came from a small city like Springfield City.


    Still, Leon was willing to risk crossing Joel for their sake.


    The three were instantly touched and felt d that they chose to follow Leon.
