Supreme Mars

Chapter 7 You're Digging Your Own Grave!

After he bought the International Commerce Center, Leo closed his eyes and remained silent for the

rest of the journey. Nadine concentrated on driving as well.

The black Rolls-Royce roamed on the crowded road while the other cars made way for it, intentionally

or unintentionally.

Suddenly, a muffled groan broke the silence in the car.

"Where am I...?" It was Chris who came to his senses, then he shook his dazed head.

"Leo, Leo Cohen? It's you!" Very soon, he noticed Leo sitting next to him and was scared out of his

wits.

Leo opened his eyes and glanced at him indifferently. "Awake?" All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

"What do you want? If you lay a finger on me, The Lawson family will come after you." Chris stared

hard at Leo as if he was facing a formidable enemy. Beads of sweat trickled down his forehead.

"You? Who do you think you are?" Leo smiled contemptuously.

"Like I said, my only target is Kate Lawson. You're nothing but a pawn. I have no time to waste on you."

These words stung, but Chris still breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter what, his life was no longer in danger.

He stammered, "Leo... Mr. Cohen, if you won't hurt me, will you let me go?"

Leo shot a meaningful gaze at Chris, making him instantly nervous again.

It was as if he could not hide anything in front of this pair of eyes.

"It's true that you're a pawn, but the outcome of a war usually depends on pawns." Leo continued, "I

won't destroy Kate all at once. That's too kind for her. I'd like to teach her what true despair is."

With that, he took out a white pill from his pocket and commanded, "Eat it."

"What's this?" Chris' heart thumped.

"Poison," Leo said in a calm tone, "You'll be my spy. I'm the only person in the world who has the

antidote, so don't waste your time. Come to me every once in a while and update me with information

about the Lawson family in exchange for the antidote."

"Of course, you can choose not to eat it. Nadine," Leo said.

"Yes, sir." With that, a blade scraped Chris' cheek and his pupils dilated in terror.

"It's up to you." Leo reminded.

"..." Chris’ face twisted and turned purple but he swallowed the poison in the end.

Leo remained impassive like that had been expected and said, "Nadine, drop him off."

The vehicle came to a stop with a smooth purr, and hit the road again after Chris scurried out of the car.

10 minutes later, the car stopped at a prosperous business area.

In the center of the high-rise buildings, there stood the tallest and most magnificent building -

International Commerce Center.

Leo got off the car and motioned Nadine to leave. He looked up at the majestic building in front of him

as his expression grew firmer. "Lydia, Emilia, I’m coming..."

Just as he was about to walk inside, two women in formal clothes got out of a commercial vehicle

which then headed toward the underground parking lot.

It was Rebecca and Caroline.

Caroline pulled a long face and Rebecca was reasoning with her nicely.

"Caroline, don’t worry. I’m on your side this time. Not to mention you drove away that troublesome man,

and even if you didn’t, I would have done the same thing."

"As for your father, I will talk to him. As long as we win the auction this afternoon, he won't have any

objections."

"Mhm!" Only then did Caroline’s face light up a little, thinking, "If we win the bid, we'll be more confident

to speak up."

The two of them walked toward the entrance.

"Leo! Why are you here?" They soon saw Leo who was standing at the door and exclaimed.

Caroline blew up at once, stomped over to Leo and questioned him, "I thought you had a conscience.

How could I know that you would be so shameless as to follow me here..."

"Follow you?" Leo was amused. He shook his head and said, "I'm here for business."

"You? Do you know what this building is used for, right?" Rebecca retorted with undisguised contempt

in her eyes.

"I see..." Caroline seemed to think of something and looked at Leo in a strange way. "You're here for a

job interview, aren't you?"

"It's good that you want to find a job, but you came here for it? This place is for the elite, not for people

like you without proper education and qualifications."

Leo shook his head helplessly, then ignored them and headed toward the building.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Caroline immediately stood in the way and said, "I've told you that you can't

go in there. Why do you have to ask for trouble? If you need to find a job, I can ask my friend to find

you a job at the construction site, for old time's sake."

"Get lost!" Leo roared, exuding a chill implicit with warning.

Caroline was caught completely off guard and took three steps back.

She sprained her ankle stumbling back, as she was wearing 2.5-inch high heels. The pain made her

gasp.

"I'll also kindly give you a warning for old time's sake; stay out of my way." Leo's tone was monstrously

cold.

He had done all he could for the Ford family and didn’t owe them anything anymore.

Compared to Lydia and their daughter, Caroline meant nothing to him.

"You're threatening me?!" Caroline lashed out angrily and charged toward Leo recklessly.

However, a man in a security uniform stopped her and asked impatiently. "Quiet! What is all the yelling

about? Who are you?"

"We're from Virgil Corporation, and we came here for the auction. This man has nothing to do with the

bidding, but intends to barge into the venue." Caroline then took out the invitation and glared at Phillip

Lopez, the head of security. She berated, "Mr. Ford takes great in today's bidding. If something goes

wrong, you will be the one to blame!"

Phillip freaked out. He looked at Leo with unfriendly eyes, took out a walkie-talkie and called more than

a dozen guards.

"So long, Leo. Mom, let's go." Caroline cast a cold glare at Leo, then walked into the International

Commerce Center with Rebecca.

"Listen carefully. It's an important day today. This area is for authorized personnel only." Phillip glared

coldly at Leo, patted the baton in his hand and threatened, "Get out of here now or we'll have to ask

less kindly next time."

Leo's tone turned cold as well. "How do you know I’m unauthorized personnel? Get the person in

charge here."

"Huh? You want to meet Mr. Cox? Who do you think you are?" Phillip laughed out loud and snarled

savagely, "Will you leave or not? No? Guys, give him a piece!"

Shortly, the guards behind Phillip walked toward Leo with an evil leer and took out their batons one

after another.

"Phillip, stop!" All of a sudden, a loud scream came from inside the building.

A rotund man almost as round as a beach ball ran over quickly, though his figure added a touch of

comic effect to his movements.

"Mr. Cox, why are you here?" Phillip asked in surprise.

"How dare you ask me? Fuck..."Justin finally arrived at the door, panting desperately. But before he

could catch his breath, he slapped Phillip on the head.

"You might be fine digging your own grave, but don't take me with you!"
