Chapter 183 Where Did You Get the Rumors?
Hellen started laughing. Her “indulgence” was actually to make her granny happy.
On TV, Karim, who looked gentlemanly, was being interviewed before the party.
He wore a black suit embroidered with dark silver lines and looked graceful.
“Cousin is so handsome. He’s gorgeous in this kind of clothes. If an ordinary person wore it, it would look like the opposite.”
Violeta looked at the TV and said, “He looks decent.”
Hellen thought to herself, “Auntie’s way of praising people is extraordinary.”
Halfway through the party, a close-up of Karim’s face appeared on the screen.
Armon rushed in from outside the door.
“Granny Thomas, bad news, Leon is here!”
Granny Thomas frowned. “So what if he’s here? Tell the security guards not to let him in. We’ve already made it clear that the Thomas and Collins families have nothing to do with each other!”
The housekeeper said anxiously, “No, he has already come in. Granny Thomas, Leon crashed through the door and rushed in!”
In the room, Hellen’s face darkened, and he stood up.
Palmer’s face was also darkened, and a sense of oppression emanated from his body.
“Mom, Joanna, Violeta, take Hellen back to the room first.”
Hellen rubbed her belly; she was angry. “Palmer, we can’t leave. Otherwise, Leon will think that our Thomas Family is afraid of him! If he dares to break in, then he cannot go back so easily!”
Violeta looked at Hellen’s bulging belly and said worriedly, “Hellen is right, but your uncle and I are here. What if your tummy runs into something later? No, you have to go to your bedroom!”
Joanna knew Hellen’s martial arts skills, but she was in the late stages of pregnancy, and it was a critical period. In the end, she was still a little worried, “Hellen, listen to your aunt and go back to your bedroom with your granny first.”
Before Hellen could go, an ear-piercing sound of brakes could be heard.
Leon rushed in with a fierce look. “Palmer, you’re the one who did this to me, aren’t you? That place isn’t a gold mine!”
The Thomas Family’s security guards had arrived at this time. They stood in the living room, ready to take action.
Leon didn’t care and rushed to Palmer like crazy.
After that, the bodyguards pushed him away forcibly. Leon rushed forward again and was driven away again.
Leon sat on the ground as if his anger had dissipated and glared at him. “Why did you hurt me? Why did you hurt me?”
Palmer’s expression was indifferent. “Leon, I don’t know about gold mines, but you drove into my house and tried to hurt me. I’ve already called the police.”
Leon sat in place, panting heavily!
He looked away from Palmer and looked at Hellen. “Isn’t there a gold mine? Otherwise, why would she want to buy that land with the Grant family?”
Hellen sat on a chair, steadily holding a plate of nuts, and picked up a walnut.
“When did I want to buy that land?” Hellen laughed. “Where did you get this rumor?”
Rumor?
Leon clenched his fists, and he was shocked.
It was indeed a rumor. After all, neither the Jovano nor the Grant family had made statements, but neither had they clarified it!
Leon figured it out and couldn’t restrain his anger. “Palmer, you’re trying to harm me, aren’t you? You knew I was trying to trick you, so you bought it, then set up a trap to trick me out of 0. 15 billion, right?”
Palmer sneered and said, “Leon, you are crazy. Now you’d better get out of my house!”
Granny Thomas’s expression was apathy. “Get lost! Don’t mess up our house!”
Leon sat there for a while and shook his head. “No, you don’t have that high an IQ, so it’s her!”
He gritted his teeth and looked at Hellen. “She designed it on purpose! Is it you? Are you trying to help the Thomas Family vent their anger and make me mistakenly think that that piece of land has a gold mine?!”
Hellen raised her eyebrows. “I think you’re sick. I heard my uncle say that you wanted to buy that piece of land because your father’s soul came to find you. What gold mine are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
Hearing Hellen’s words, Palmer was also reminded.
He frowned and said, “Leon, I’m still keeping surveillance video of the process we’ve signed the contract. If you think you’ve been cheated, I can post the video now and let everyone in Hail City judge it. I’ll also let the police see if I’ve lied to you!”
Leon was stunned. A surveillance video?!
The video of him kowtowing to Palmer, hugging his leg, and crying in the small building?!
The video of “Leon said that his father’s ghost had come and deceived the Thomas Family, so he came to atone for his sins by buying the land!”
Leon gritted his teeth. That day, to fool Palmer, he was doing anything!
If Palmer posted the video, everyone in Tempe City would see him kowtowing to him and making a fool of himself!
If there really was a gold mine in that land, it’s ok.
But he got nothing!
The total assets of the Collins family were only 0. 75 billion dollars. This time, he took the 4. 5 billion dollars that had not been transferred by the Thomas Family and then used all the working capital of the Collins Group to take out 0. 15 billion dollars!
“Palmer-” Leon suddenly collapsed to the ground. “Palmer, please help me. I don’t ask for anything else. Can you return the 0. 15 billion to me? It’s all the liquid capital of the Collins Group. Without that money, the Collins Group will not be able to work. There will be trouble!”
Leon looked panicked. He wanted to hug Palmer’s leg and cry, but he was stopped.
Leon cried bitterly, “Palmer, Joanna, we used to play together since we were kids. Auntie Thomas, can you put in a good word for me? My mother used to say that you were her best friend. Didn’t you two often shop together when you were young?”
Leon went on to reminisce about their past relationship.
Hellen frowned slightly. Now that the situation had developed to this point, Leon should understand that his sinister and vicious appearance had been thoroughly exposed.
Not to mention their past relationship; even if he was to kowtow and die in the Thomas Villa, it would be useless.
On the one hand, he had almost harmed the Thomas Family. On the other hand, Leon couldn’t wait to say that Palmer would kowtow to him in the future after he had signed the contract with Palmer again…
No one would help him.
However, Leon was at his wit’s end. He’d lost all reasoning and was probably hoping for a miracle.
For example, the Thomas Family must be idiots.
Hellen let out a slight sigh.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
This type of desperate person was the most terrifying. She was going to leave Hail City tomorrow, so she was worried about the Thomas Family.
The prominent people of the Thomas Family were Hellen’s Grandma, her uncle, and auntie, Karim, and Karlen.
There were only five people in the third generation.
Hellen took out that Centurion Card from her pocket. “Here is your 0. 15 billion dollars.”
Leon looked fiercely at Hellen, wishing he could stab the mastermind to death. But now, his eyes were wide open.
“Miss Jovano, Miss Jovano, thank you!”
Hellen threw the Centurion Card in front of Leon. “You got it. Get lost.”
Palmer grew angry. He looked at Hellen. “Hellen!”
