Yesterday, after Leo drove the car away, a colleague had informed Irene about Leo’s identity. Irene was not superficial and didn’t think much of Leo’s status as a freeloading son-in-law. Everyone had their own way of life, and outsiders had no right to judge.
In Irene’s view, the money used to buy the car yesterday should have been given to Leo by his wife’s family to purchase the car. That’s why when Leo said what he did just now, she was so shocked.
Under normal circumstances, one person couldn’t buy two identical cars. And from Leo’s demeanor, it seemed like he was buying an Audi A8 as casually as buying a bottle of mineral water.
Although she couldn’t understand how he could be so wealthy, after the brief astonishment, Irene put on a smile. No matter what, this person was taking care of her. If he bought another Audi A8 today, her commission for the month would exceed ten thousand dollars.
Irene accepted Leo’s credit card with both hands and said with a smile, “Mr. Bloomer, please wait in the lounge area for a moment, and I’ll process the car purchase for you right away.”
Because they were quite far away, the salespeople inside the showroom couldn’t hear what Leo and Irene were saying. So when they saw Irene taking Leo’s credit card and rushing to the front desk, they all gathered around her.
“Irene, is that guy here to return the car? Let me remind you, according to the store’s rules, you can’t return a car unless there’s a problem with it!” one of the salespeople reminded her.
Irene raised the bank card in her hand and smiled, “No, Mr. Bloomer is here to buy another car today.”
“Buy another car? Didn’t he buy one yesterday?”
“Today, he wants to buy another one, and he’s paying in full!”
Hearing this, everyone was nearly petrified. An a man who supposedly lived off his wife’s family, he was buying two Audi A8s one after the other. It was beyond belief.
“Has that guy gone insane? Buying a car isn’t like buying a drink, where you can just get another one if you’re lucky!”
“What’s happening to the world? A guy living off his wife’s family can casually buy two top-of-the-line Audi A8Ls in two days. How are the rest of us hardworking folks supposed to live?”
Irene also had some doubts but handed the credit card to her colleague after setting the amount on the card. She then rushed over to Leo with the card machine.
Leo entered his PIN, and when he saw the card machine start printing the receipt, the surrounding salespeople were left dumbfounded.
He had actually swiped for more than 150, 000 dollars again!
A man who supposedly lived off his wife’s family, a man who looked like he hadn’t spent more than three hundred dollars on his entire outfit, had just bought two fully loaded Audi A8Ls in two days!
Absolute wizardry!
It wasn’t until Leo drove away from the 4S dealership that the salespeople finally snapped out of their dreamlike state.
Many of them even began to entertain the idea of following in Leo’s footsteps, finding a wealthy partner, and enjoying a life of luxury without working hard themselves.
In this day and age, it seemed that as long as you were good at living off someone else, you could cruise down the streets in a fancy car.
After leaving the Audi 4S store, Leo headed directly to Cloud Dream Mountain. Despite being constantly bogged down by various matters recently, he couldn’t neglect his training.
After his encounters with martial practitioners, Leo had gained a deeper understanding of this world. He realized that relying on oneself was far superior, and only by becoming powerful could he protect the people around him.
The training location remained Heaven’s Extreme Stone at the highest point of Cloud Dream Mountain. This place had the most abundant spiritual energy that Leo knew of.
…
Today, there were no classes at school, so Tina made a rare visit home. Just as Tina entered the villa’s living room, a few people arrived outside the villa.
“Is that guy named Leo living here?” Janet’s voice from her throat was hard to listen to.
An elite disciple replied, “Yes, Senior Sister.”
“You guys go in and get that kid for me!” Janet’s voice was ice-cold.
Two elite disciples stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Tina opened the door and saw two unfamiliar men standing outside, warily asking, “Who are you, and what do you want?”
“Is Leo here?” one of the elite disciples asked.
“He’s not here!”
Tina was about to close the door, but a powerful force pushed the door open. As the door swung open, Tina, who had been leaning against it, lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Seeing a person covered in a black cloak that seemed as terrifying as the Grim Reaper appear before her, Tina couldn’t help but scream.
“Tell me, is Leo inside the house?” Janet’s voice carried a bone-chilling coldness and brushed against Tina’s face.
Tina was frightened and quickly said, “Leo’s not here!”
Janet didn’t believe her and ordered two elite disciples to search inside.
Four or five minutes later, the two elite disciples returned to Janet and reported, “Senior Sister, there’s no one inside.”
Janet’s icy gaze locked onto Tina’s face, and she asked, “Little girl, what’s your relationship with Leo?”
“I don’t know any Leo!” Tina denied, trembling in the face of these unexpected guests.
“Is that so? Well, then you have no reason to live. Kill her!” Janet ordered.
Tina panicked and shouted, “Leo is my brother-in-law!”
“Brother-in-law?” Janet’s icy gaze shifted slightly. “In that case, you’ll be the bait to catch the fish.”
Tina didn’t understand what Janet meant, but she felt Janet exhale in her direction. Tina’s eyes rolled back, and she immediately fainted.
Three hours later, Leo, who was sitting cross-legged on Heaven’s Extreme Stone, slowly opened his eyes. This place was truly a treasure trove. After just three hours of cultivation, Leo sensed that his cultivation had improved once again.
It seemed that if he spent more time cultivating here, it wouldn’t be long before he reached the mid-level Spirit Master realm.
Just as Leo jumped down from Heaven’s Extreme Stone, his phone rang.
When he looked at it, Leo was surprised because the caller ID displayed Tina’s name.
In the four years since he entered the Henley family, Tina had never once called him. So why was she suddenly calling today?
With a sense of puzzlement and curiosity, Leo answered the call.
There was no sound coming from the other end of the line, and Leo thought it might have been a pocket dial. He called out to the phone a couple of times, thinking Tina might have accidentally touched the screen.
But just as Leo was about to hang up, a cold voice came through, “Leo!”
Hearing that voice, Leo’s heart skipped a beat. He knew that Tina had most likely been kidnapped.
“Who are you? What have you done to Tina?” Leo’s voice was filled with anger.
Although Tina had never acknowledged him as her brother-in-law, she was Sophia’s little sister. Leo couldn’t stand by if something happened to her.
