Chapter 546
Leon had no idea how he hung up the photre
After ending the call, he was still agonizing over what to say when he called Evan back
Then Stella’s call came in.
He answered and obediently greeted, “Stella.”
“Mr. Redson.”
The voice on the other end was not Stella’s.
It carried an Eirden accent.
Leon immediately realized it was one of the people by Stella’s side.
If Stella had called him personally, he might still have had room to speak.
But now, the person calling was not Stella.
It was someone around her.
That invisible warning was almost too obvious. Leon forced himself to stay calm.
“Mr. Gray?”
“Yes.”
“Hello.”
Gray said, “Mr. Redson, are you sure you want to help Mr. Wright handle Old Mrs. Wright’s situation?”
Gray’s tone over the phone was not exactly polite.
Even through the signal, Leon could feel the intimidating pressure coming from him.
At that moment, a voice in Leon’s mind told him one thing.
This man was not simple.
Leon said, “I…”
Before he could finish, Gray’s tone grew heavier.
“Withdraw your people.”
Leon fell silent.
Gray said, “If you withdraw them now, we can save ourselves the trouble of dealing with Redson Group”
Gray spoke very directly.
He was telling Leon clearly that if Leon’s people did not withdraw as soon as possible, Redson Group would be in serious trouble.
Over the years, Leon had met all kinds of arrogant people.
But he had never met anyone this arrogant.
Threatening the Redson family so openly was truly an eye-opener.
If this had been before, Leon probably would not have believed that anyone in Harbor City, aside from the Hernandez, Wright,
+15 Bonus
of Lincoln families, could threaten Redson Group.
But after seeing the Wright family thrown into complete chaos, he believed it now.
“Fine, fine. I won’t get involved. I won’t interfere. Please don’t go after kedson Group
“I’ll call my people back right now.”
With that, Leon hung up before Gray could say anything else.
Then he immediately called his people and told them to withdraw, terrified that even a slight delay would drag him into the
mess.
This was not a joke.
After seeing what had happened to Wright Group, which company could withstand that kind of blow?
Only after calling his people back did Leon call Evan.
Earlier, after Evan hung up with Leon, he had planned to call Stella.
But first, he went into a meeting.
When he came out and was about to call Stella, Leon’s call came in first.
After the call connected, Leon said, “Evan, I’m sorry. You and Stella are fighting so badly right now that I don’t dare help you.
Compared with Lucas, Leon said it much more tactfully.
It was not that he did not want to help.
He truly did not dare.
When Evan heard this, he froze. “You don’t dare?”
“Gray called me just now.”
Leon did not hide the truth from Evan.
What happened was what happened.
Besides, Evan and Stella were already locked in such a bitter fight. This was not exactly a secret between them anymore
Evan’s eyes narrowed. “Got it.”
Stella really was ruthless.
So ruthless that she was leaving them no room at all.
This woman had truly reached the point where no one could afford to provoke her.
“Once this thing between you and Stella is over, I’ll help you however you need.”
Leon said the same thing Lucas had said.
When Lucas said it, his survival instinct had been obvious.
At the time, Lucas had been terrified Evan would ask him for help, especially if Evan tried to force him into it.
But when Leon said it now, his voice was filled with apology.
He was different from Lucas.
