Supreme Mars novel Chapter 146

In the sky, a bright moon outshone all the stars. A black convertible Porsche is galloping on the empty road.

Strong winds ruffled the long hair of the woman in the driver's seat. She looked as cool as the Moon Goddess.

Marie sat on in the co-pilot and looked at the woman with admiring eyes.

A man with a story was fascinating, and so was a woman. The woman just rescued Marie like a savior sent by God. Marie was curious about her now.

"Who are you?"

"Why did you save me?"

"Where did you buy your leather jacket? It looks so cool!"

Marie couldn't stop asking questions like a baby as soon as she got in the car.

However, as many questions as she had asked, none of them had been answered yet. She was getting tired of being ignored. Just by then, the woman answered casually, "I saved you for the sake of Leo."

She wanted to stop Marie from asking more questions with that answer, which only made Marie more curious.

Marie stared at her with great interest and asked, "You know my brother-in-law?"

"Brother-in-law?"

In a surprise, the woman looked at Marie and asked, "Is he married?"

"Yes."

Marie didn't realize that she had exposed Leo's secret.

"Really..."

The woman's face changed, and she looked disappointed. Moments later, she smiled brightly, "Send my congrats to him if you have the opportunity."

There seemed to be a story behind that smile.

There were upsetness, disappointments, blessings, happiness, and... reminiscences!

She had mixed feelings.

Marie was stunned. As a woman, her intuition told her that the woman and Leo had a history.

She didn't ask much, and after a while, they arrived at the International Commerce Center.

"Get out of the car," the woman ordered.

Marie still wanted to ask, but the woman glared at her and scared his questions back. She got out of the car reluctantly.

The woman hit the gas and drove away. She was as unrestrained as when she came.

Lydia hugged Marie as soon as they walked into the President's Office. Lydia asked, "Marie, are you alright?"

"Lydia!"

Marie revealed his true feelings after going through the disaster. She hugged Lydia tightly.

It hadn't been long before Leo was back and saw them hugging each other. He finally felt at ease.

"Wait a minute, Leo!"

Marie reacted fast and stopped Leo, "I need to ask you something."

Leo seemed to have realized something. His eyes were avoiding contact with Lydia's.

Lydia saw what he was doing and seemed quite confused.

After she got out of the office with Leo, she asked with a prying face, "What does the woman has to do with you?"

Leo looked at her and said, "You met her?"

"Yeah, she's so cool, but she's a bit distant."

Leo fell in silence. He looked out of the window. Marie didn't know what was going on in his mind.

After a long time, he said in a low voice, "She's Sharon Bell, my sister-in-law."

Marie opened her eyes widely and almost dropped her jaw.

"Promise me not to tell Lydia about it."

Leo looked seriously at Marie and whispered.

"Okay, I will..."

Marie stuck out her tongue and put on a bitter face. She felt lucky that she hadn't mentioned this to Lydia, or she might have gotten Leo in trouble.

Marie would be a fool to haven't told the woman's admiration towards Leo; however, she turned out to be his sister-in-law...

A smile emerged on Leo's face. He then said, "Go back with Lydia later."

Marie paused and asked, "Aren't you going with us?"

Leo shook his head. "I've got other things to do."

He said as he walked into the elevator.

As the elevator went down layer by layer, the smile on Leo's face had completely disappeared, replaced by a gloomy look.

A Rolls-Royce was parked downstairs, and Nadine had been waiting for a long time.

Leo nodded at her and opened the trunk. A man was lying in there, body covered with cuts. It was Peter.

"Sharon, how can I refuse such a big gift from you?"

Leo glanced at Peter, who was in a coma, and said in a cold tone, "This isn't over yet."

Bang!

He closed the truck hard and said to Nadine, "Come with me. We're going to visit the Lawsons."

"Okay, Young Master."

Nadine hit the gas, and the car sped on with an afterimage behind. They headed to the Lawson family.

As one of the four richest families, the Lawsons were rainmakers in Emerdale. It was already eight o'clock while the house's porch was still packed with a crowd. There were many luxurious sports cars in the front.

Nadine frowned and said, "They seemed to be holding an event."

Leo's face remained calm. He got off the car and walked over.

He had mixed feelings while walking through this familiar place.

Five years ago, he almost joined this family; this was also where he had been severely tortured.

"Let's go."

His eyes skimmed over those cars as he strode in.

"Leo? Is that you?"

Just by then, somebody exclaimed behind them.

Leo looked back and saw two men in expensive black tuxedos walking over. They looked so surprised.

One of them exposed kill intent in his eyes as soon as he confirmed that it was Leo. He said, "How dare you, Leo! What makes you think you can come back here!"

Leo narrowed his eyes. They were Ryan Garcia and Dwayne O'Brien.

Leo already knew the history of Ryan. He was one of the many bastards of the head of the Lawson family.

Dwayne was the son of Neil. They had been behaving themselves ever since they came to the Fords family and apologized. Leo was surprised to see them here.

However, Leo was here for the Lawson's this time。 Dwayne and Neil were too weak to be his concern. Leo didn't even want to look at them. He passed by them directly.

"Stop!"

Being ignored by the person he once looked down on, Ryan was furious.

Dwayne also stepped forward quickly and blocked Leo's way. "We're here for Miss Lawson's business event tonight. No outsiders are allowed in here!"

"Stay out of our way! You sick of living?"

Nadine said as she turned around. The cold lights radiating out of her eyes gleamed with murderous intent, making Ryan and Dwayne soaked in sweats.

This was Ryan's first time meeting Nadine. He thought her to be Leo's date, but she turned out to be his bodyguard.

Dwayne was so frightened that he fell to the ground. When he realized what had happened, he was so embarrassed.

He was the young master of a noble family. He shouldn't be scared so severely before this git he used to despise.

"Leo, you bodyguard just threat me!"

Dwayne looked at Leo with threatening eyes and asked, "Do you really think we're afraid of you?"

Leo turned around and teased, "Aren't you? Who's the one kneeling to me and slapping himself?"

Dwayne was utterly provoked. "Do you think we would apologize to a lower-class family like yours? Stop daydreaming!"

He felt it so funny that Leo was using that as leverage to protect himself, so he was going to tell the truth.

"That's because a bigwig sent an order and asked us to apologize to you, or why would we let the Fords family survive?"

Leo smiled even more after hearing what he said. He wondered what Dwayne would think if he knew Leo was the "bigwig" that gave him the order.

"And the Lawson family, too!"

Ryan took a step closer and said fiercely, "They apologized to the Fords family because of the order. The Fords family had pissed off a big name that you can't afford to offend!"

Seeing that Leo didn't speak, Dwayne thought Leo was being afraid. He pointed his finger at Leo and scolded, "Apologize to me on your knees now! I'll let you go if I'm in a good mood."

People from other prominent families gradually arrived at the gate of the house. They were so glad to watch this tremendous drama.

"Isn't this the good-for-nothing git, Leo? He almost got married to Miss Lawson five years ago. What's he doing here?"

"He had offended the O'Brian family. He'll die."

However, Leo gave Dwayne a sarcastic look and walked in without saying anything.

Nadine follows Leo around like a loyal guard.

Dwayne was stunned, and then his proud smile became twisted. "How dare you intrude in the Lawson'sfamily! I'm going to teach you a lesson for them!"

As soon as he said that, four or five bodyguards approached from both sides and charged against Leo.

People seemed to have seen how Leo collapsed to the ground.

Bang...

However, Nadine turned into a shadow the next second and kicked four times like lightning.

The bodyguards of the O'Brian family all flew backward with collapsed chests.

One of them bumped into Dwayne and slammed him heavily on the wall.

Leo's loud laughter came from inside.

"I'm going in no matter how many people you've got in there! No one's going to stop me!"
