SWNOVELS Chapter 45
Chapter 45
At this moment, Marsh felt like he was in a frozen hell.
He knew that this time, he had really run into a brick wall.
Who would have thought that Leonard would be able to alarm two powerful forces?
Neither of these two forces could be offended by the Acosta family.
“It’s over.” Marsh thought to himself.
“Boom.”
Just then, a scream was heard.
More than a dozen cars roared in, driving recklessly.
“Da mn it all, they’ve even dared to arrest Leonard! This supposed Governor’s Mansion is just a joke. I vow to slice off the
Governor’s head today and kick it around like a ball.”
A wildly fierce voice erupted with an air of unparalleled dominance.
At the door, members of Sky Corps were driven by cars and fled in all directions.
The car rushed over.
There came a crowd of tall, middle-aged men dressed like a nouveau riche with a thick gold chain around his neck and a loud
floral shirt draped on his back, sauntering in with an air of arrogant confidence.
Even his walk was marked by an unbridled audacity, as if he owned the world and nobody could dare challenge his authority.
Marsh’s face turned even more unpleasant when he saw who he was.
Marsh knew this person. Back in Imperial City, he was almost broken by this man because he was chasing after a club hostess.
In the end, the Acosta family swallowed their pride and let him come to apologize in person.
Michael Davis, a figure that made many aristocratic sons tremble with fear, was outrageously arrogant and domineering and
went by the nickname “Sick Tiger.”
The feeling of unease in Parker’s heart grew stronger.
“Could it be...” Parker thought to himself.
Just then, Michael, who had been acting wildly until now, approached Leonard and immediately restrained all his
arrogance.
He lowered his head respectfully and greeted him with a smile. “Mr. Santos.”
“Oh, no!”
Parker sighed deeply.
He knew that they were done for. Any one of these three forces that had come today was not something he could afford to
offend.
And now all of them came here, just because of Leonard in front of him.
Beside him, Waylon felt like his brain was about to shut down.
He knew that Leonard was the boss of the Santos Group and that Leonard had super high jewelry appraisal skills and strong
combat effectiveness.
But he had never expected that Leonard’s background would be so terrifying.
To Waylon, people like Eagle, Hunter, and Michael were all high and mighty figures. Yet today, they had all appeared together for
Leonard.
And their attitude toward Leonard was more like a subordinate.
Previously, Parker and Marsh had been extremely arrogant, but now they had suddenly become extremely low-spirited.
The situation in the room had undergone a drastic change.
Leonard made a gesture.

Chapter 45
Marsh and the several members of the Acosta family he brought with him, including Parker, found themselves surrounded by a
throng of people.
“Leonard, what do you want to do?”
Marsh was so flustered by sight before him that he couldn’t contain his question and shouted it out loud.
As an heir to the Acosta family, he was used to being arrogant. He couldn’t accept that someone he considered insignificant was
suddenly looking down on him.
He was indeed afraid of Hunter, afraid of Eagle, and even more afraid of Michael, as all these people held high positions. But
why did Leonard have the right to look down on him like this?
Of course, his rational mind told him that speaking at this time was extremely unwise.
However, in the heat of the moment, or perhaps because he had yet to adjust to the change in status between himself and
Leonard, he blurted out this sentence.
Eagle, who considered Leonard a go d-like figure, couldn’t tolerate anyone disrespecting him.
He squeezed his fists and looked at this direct descendant of the Acosta family, and his face suddenly became ferocious.
But before he could make a move, Marsh had already been kicked and fell to the ground.
Michael, with a dark expression on his face, rushed forward and delivered a series of punches and kicks to Marsh. Michael beat
him relentlessly until his face was black and blue and then spat in his face before begrudgingly calling it quits.
This made Parker and the members of Sky Corps who were watching feel their eyelids twitching.
After beating Marsh, Michael seemed to be still angry and looked at Parker with cold eyes.
“Leonard, does this da mn Governor disrespect you as well?”
When Parker heard this, his heart sank.
“Forget it. Why bother with a dead man,” said Leonard with a faint smile.
But it made Parker feel even more scared.
“A dead man?”
Parker’s body stiffened as he looked at Leonard.
At this moment, he was now shrouded in an overwhelming chill.
If it had been someone else who said this to him, Parker would have just laughed it off.
But in the midst of so many important figures, his death holds little weight, even if he was the Governor of Newden City.
At that moment, a cold gun barrel was pressed against Parker’s forehead.
It was Hunter. As long as Leonard nodded, Parker’s head would burst like a crushed watermelon.
Cold sweat dripped from Parker’s head.
“Let’s just kill this guy from the Acosta family first. As for Mr. Evans, I’ll talk to him later.”
Leonard said.
Hearing this, Parker collapsed onto the chair beside him, gasping for breath.
He had been too close to death just now.
Marsh, who had been playing dead until now, was frightened by Leonard’s words and climbed up from the ground.
He shouted loudly, “You can’t kill me. I’m the rightful heir of the Acosta family. If you kill me, you’ll face my family’s revenge:
As he spoke, he looked at Hunter.
“Mr. Lucas, although the Lucas family is stronger than my family, if we were to retaliate, your family would not be spared either.
“As for you, Eagle. Even though you’re in Eagles Corps, if you kill me, won’t your superiors punish you?
“And Michael, you beat me last time, and the Acosta family let it go. Do you think the Acosta family will let it go this time?” Marsh
threatened them loudly.

Indeed, the Acosta family’s power might not be as great as the Lucas family, Eagles Corps, or Michael.
But the Acosta family was not a small family after all, and if they were willing to pay any price to retaliate, it would be a very
troublesome matter.
Just then, a car raced in.
It quickly broke through the gate and approached the crowd.
The moment the car stopped, the door opened, and Rex strode up.
Leonard looked at Rex in surprise.
He hadn’t called Rex, so Rex must have heard the news and come on his own.
The first thing Rex said when he arrived in front of Leonard was, “Mr. Santos, Mr. Clarkson has ordered his men to strike against
the Acosta family. Now the Acosta family of Imperial City has already been wiped out.”
Wiped out?
What did that mean?
Everyone present was stunned and confused.
“Mr. Clarkson ordered a crac kdown on the Acosta family, and now all of their companies have gone bankrupt. The crimes
committed by the Acosta family have also been exposed, and the head of the family, Merlin, has been arrested and imprisoned.
From now on, the Acosta family will no longer be present in Imperial City.”
Rex explained.
Marsh was stunned and shouted, “Nonsense! Who are you trying to scare?
“The Acosta family has been operating in Imperial City for a hundred years. It’s not something that can just disappear overnight. I
don’t believe it,” he added.
