Chapter 253
“I can definitely show you the agreement, but we'll have to make a bet first!” Leon said calmly.
“What bet?” Ashwin asked.
“You don’t believe | have an agreement with the Shear Group, right? If | manage to produce an agreement, then
don’t bite me!” Leon knew that he overstepped his responsibilities, so he preemptively shielded himself from
Ashwin. He did not want Ashwin to get angry and bite him in the back.
“Why would | bite you for no reason?! You're crazy!” Ashwin’s expression was incredibly sour. He thought that
Leon tried to mock him.
“Alright, you said it yourself. Don’t go back on your words!” Leon was elated. Ashwin fell right for it.
Ashwin waved it off, not wanting to bother wasting twith Leon. He said, “What if you can’t produce the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtagreement?”
“Then you can do whatever you want!” Leon said firmly.
“Alright, it's a deal!” Ashwin was incredibly happy, looking like he already won. His smile was incredibly
wide.
“Leon, did you get the contract or not? Stop stalling for time!” Iris glared at Leon in annoyance.
She knew that Elegante was not a pharmaceutical company, so they did not need that much in terms of herbal
medicines. With the Shears’ wealth and power, they would not bother working with Elegante Group.
She knew Leon’s background well. He was no one notable, and there was no way he was related to the Shears.
She did not think that Leon would be able to move the Shears unless it was a miracle!
“I did, the contract is right here!” Leon took out the contract from his bag and handed it to Iris.
Iris looked over the document, and her face was full of disbelief, “Y-you actually managed to secure the Shear
Group's cooperation!”
“What?” Ashwin was shocked when he heard that. He hurriedly looked over the documents and was stunned
in place.
“H-how is that possible!?” Ashwin was dumbfounded. He never would have dreamed that Leon would actually
obtain the agreement. He felt his beliefs starting to shake.
Could Ariel have been right during the celebration banquet? Leon really was related to the Shears?
Leon was just a nameless orphan, how could he be related to the Shears?!
That was unbelievable!
Ashwin’s face was incredibly dark, and he suddenly forgot that Leon overstepped.
“Leon, how did this happen? Why did the Shears agree to work with us for no reason?” Iris snapped back to
reality. Her face was full of disbelief.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It's like this. | went to the Antiqua Flea Market a while ago, and happened to pick up an imperial green... Elder
Shear really liked that imperial green, and | couldn’t stop his request, so | sold it to him. To thank me,
he agreed to give one necklace toafter he carved the stone...” Leon explained, briefly telling Iris about the
story.
As for healing Benedict's wife, it was unrelated, so he did not mention it.
“You managed to get an imperial green? Aren't you just too lucky?!” Iris was shocked.
Even though Ariel confidently said that the Blue Star of the Sea was from the Shears, Iris was always skeptical
since imperial greens were so valuable and rare. She felt like Leon might be making sthings up.
After all, Leon was completely unrelated to the Shears, so why would they give him something so valuable for no
reason?
