Chapter 172
“Aria has escaped. Where can we find her in the boundless huge crowd?”
Barrett sat there dejectedly. The Elixir of Longevity excited him for a long time, and he put a lot of energy into studying it. He didn’t expect that someone would steal the fruits of his labor.
“Don’t worry.
I will find her even if she escapes to the ends of the earth. Moreover, she may not have been able to leave Blueville in such a short time.”
“Even she is in Blueville, how can we find her in such a big Blueville?”
Someone next to them couldn’t help but ask.
“The headquarters of the Boundless Group is in Blueville.”
Leonard said.
Next to him, Barrett immediately raised his head.
“Leonard, did you mean… Michael?”
Barrett also served a sentence in the Iron Penitentiary back then, so he naturally knew about Michael.
Of course, at that time, Barrett wasn’t close with Michael.
“The headquarters of the Boundless Group is in Blueville. I will go directly to the headquarters to find Michael.”
After saying that, Leonard left the Barrett Institute and went in front of the Boundless Group.
As the largest company in Blueville, Boundless Group, coupled with Michael’s influence, was extremely magnificent. Even Leonard was a little surprised when he saw it.
In comparison, Santos Group was far behind.
He thought, “Even the Boundless Group is so magnificent. What should the Gora Group look like, which is bigger than the Boundless Group?”
Although Ibrahim selected Leonard as the heir to the Galen Group, Leonard had not yet been to the Group’s headquarters, and he did not know much about its internal affairs.
Leonard thought, “Ibrahim is protecting me, but it won’t take long before I will prove to everyone that Ibrahim’s choice was
not wrong.”
Parking the car in the parking lot, Leonard entered the building.
He saw the entire hall full of successful people waiting for something.
Leonard was about to go inside but was blocked by staff.
“Sir, who are you looking for?”
“I’m looking for your boss.”
Leonard said.
“Sorry, sir, everyone in the lobby is waiting to see my boss. You can register there first, and then when it’s your turn, we will call your name.”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
A middle–aged bald man beside Leonard couldn’t help but smile and said, “Bro, everyone in this hall comes to see Michael. I have been waiting here for three hours.
“If you register now, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait until tomorrow.”
It turned out that Boundless Group had recently developed a large project and needed to find a partner, which sensationalized the whole of Blueville.
Michael had always been domineering, but he was praised for his loyalty to his friend and honesty, and those who cooperated with him would definitely not suffer a loss.
“I’m not here to talk about projects with him. I know Michael, and I have something to do with him. Besides, I’ve called him.” Hearing Leonard’s words, the staff beside him couldn’t help laughing.
“I’ve met three people who said the same thing as you this morning. You can’t meet Mr. Davis in advance.”
The surrounding people couldn’t help laughing when they heard that.
“Young man, you’d better wait in line obediently. It’s useless to use these tricks.”
“Yes. Young man, everyone present is a bigwig who has been influential in the business world for many years. They are all

good at playing tricks. How can you deceive them?”
While they were speaking, the elevator prompt tone sounded.
The elevator stopped on the first floor.
When the elevator door slowly opened, Michael, dressed in a suit, walked out, followed by three managers.
“Mr. Davis is here.”
Suddenly, the entire hall fell silent.
Michael was definitely a man with great power that he could control the whole of Blueville. In front of him, everyone even started to be cautious about breathing.
“Mr. Davis, I am Bernie Group’s…”
The bald man next to Michael was about to greet him, but Michael ignored him and came directly to Leonard.
Michael said with a smile, “Mr. Santos, I didn’t expect you to come here in person. Why don’t you call me earlier to pick you up?”
Seeing Michael’s respectful appearance, everyone present was dumbfounded.
The staff who just asked Leonard to register was even more stunned. In more than a year since she came to the company, that was the first time she had seen Michael treat a person with such an attitude.
She thought, “Who is this young man?”
“Michael, I’m looking for you because I need you to do something.”
Leonard came straight to the point.
“Mr. Santos, I will move mountains to do whatever you order without hesitation.” Michael said as he opened the elevator door.
At the same time, he winked at Taylor Sullivan, his female secretary next to him.
Taylor immediately said to the bosses in the hall, “Everyone, a distinguished guest is coming to our company. Mr. Davis will not see other guests today. Please leave and come back another day.”
After saying that, the group entered the elevator and went directly to the office on the top floor.
Leonard
had already told Michael what happened on the way.
Michael couldn’t help but scold, “Barrett is a loser. He can’t handle such a small thing and even bothers you to come here.”
As he spoke, he patted his chest and assured Leonard. “Don’t worry, Mr. Santos. Blueville is my territory. As long as Aria is still in Blueville, I will definitely find her.
“Even if she is not in Blueville, I will definitely capture her.”
After saying that, Michael ordered the three people behind him, “Immediately mobilize all the informants in Blueville to find this woman named Aria.”
Then he said, “Mr. Santos, I will handle this matter personally. You can wait for me in the company now.”
He winked at Taylor and said, “Treat Mr. Santos well. If you fail to treat him well, you won’t be able to live anymore.”
After saying that, Michael left in a hurry.
He knew that Leonard didn’t like polite formulas but wanted him to take actual actions.
Michael left, and Taylor came to Leonard tremblingly.
Although she didn’t know Leonard’s identity, she could guess that his background must be scary because Michael could treat him like that.
Moreover, Leonard’s anger towards the person who stole the elixir was revealed inadvertently, frightening her even more.
“You don’t have to be so overcautious. If you have nothing to do, go out first. I want to be alone.”
“Yes.”
Taylor nodded.
“Then I’ll be waiting at the door. If you need anything, please give me instructions.”
After speaking. Taylor left cautiously.
The moment she closed the door, she couldn’t help but pat her plump chest and let out a long sigh of relief.
She thought, “His aura is so scary.”
12:07
Her heart was beating so fast it felt like it would jump out.
“Who is the person inside?”
Kevin Whitman, a young manager in the company who was highly regarded by Michael, asked in a low voice.
Taylor looked back at the direction of the office, shook her head, and said, “Not sure, but I guess he has an incredible background.”
The young man suddenly showed a bit of disdain.
Taylor couldn’t help but sneer when she saw that scene, “Oh? Do you think he’s not as good as someone like you who works hard with your own hands? Don’t just rely on your talent and the appreciation of Mr. Davis to think that everyone in the world is inferior to you.
“If you really put aside your family background and compete at the same starting point, you may not be able to win for
sure.”
Kevin chuckled and said, “I can get the appreciation of Mr. Davis because I work hard enough. Those men from aristocratic families are pampered. Can they compare with me?”
“Self–righteous!” Taylor curled her lips.
Leonard closed his eyes and rested his mind in the office, waiting patiently.
Michael was not a pure businessman. His fortune was full of blood and darkness. He fought for his current status from a vicious, brutal past.
In Blueville, people of every class followed Michael’s lead. He was the real underground emperor of this place.
It could be said that his informants were everywhere in Blueville.
That was why Leonard didn’t go to Eagle but chose Michael.
Just when Leonard closed his eyes to rest, suddenly, there was a loud noise in the corridor outside.
“What happened?”
It was so noisy that Leonard couldn’t calm down, so he opened the door and asked.
“Sir, I’m so sorry. Someone was making trouble downstairs and wanted to see Mr. Davis. The staff told him Mr. Davis wasn’t there, so he started beating them. Mr. Davis took many people away, and the people left behind couldn’t stop him.”
Leonard frowned immediately after hearing that.
He thought, “How dare a person in Blueville come to Michael’s company to cause trouble? He is so courageous and may not be an ordinary person.”
“Let’s go. Take me to see it.”
