Chapter 223 A Big Short's Prisoner
- “What Dandy Killer?” Leonard asked in puzzlement. Arlene smiled. “Nothing. It’s just a nickname given to you by my friends in Imperial City.” “So it’s really you!” Mabel was now completely sure. She was in the same group chat as Arlene, so she naturally knew what had happened in Newden that had caused quite a stir. Some dandies from Imperial City came to Newden, and without exception, they ended up miserable. Therefore, Newden was then nicknamed the graveyard of prominent families. Mabel did not expect that all of this was just because of the young man in front of her.
- Leonard looked gentle and quiet, but he had such strong skills. Indeed, people couldn’t be judged by their appearances. Under Mabel’s curious gaze, Leonard felt a little uneasy. Especially during the meal, Mabel kept asking Leonard about the incidents of those dandies in Imperial City who were beaten in Newden, but Leonard only briefly talked about it. Mabel felt a little unsatisfied, and she agreed with Leonard that the next time they met, Leonard would give her a detailed description. After finishing the meal, the three of them walked down to the restaurant together. “Leonard, where will you stay tonight? I’ll drive you there.” Arlene asked. Leonard shook his head. “No need. The person to pick me up should be here.”
- Leonard checked his watch. Just then, a black business car stopped at the door of the restaurant. A middle-aged man with a square face wearing a suit got out of the car. After getting off, he walked straight towards Leonard. The man was dressed like a successful man, wearing black leather shoes, black pants, a black jacket, and a white shirt, and his hair was combed meticulously. It was Ray Vernon, the newly appointed head of the Imperial City area of the Galen Group after Stuart’s death. Now, Ray’s face showed a bit of excitement and awe. At the door of the business car, two bodyguards wearing sunglasses stood, highlighting his extraordinary status and attracting the attention of many passers-by in front of the restaurant.
