Chapter 52 A Big Short's Prisoner

• Johnny was beaten so hard that he held his head and dared not move. Joshua peeked at Leonard. Seeing Leonard’s meaningful eyes, he immediately knew that Leonard’s anger should have dissipated, so he stopped and said to the people present, “Everyone, Johnny’s a bully. He has ruined the reputation of Boundless Group, and now he’s no longer a member of us. “I am deeply sorry for my ignorance.” When people heard Joshua’s words, they couldn’t believe their ears. Joshua Clayton, who was said to be the fierce and violent manager of the Leopard Department, was a person with great righteousness. After speaking, Joshua looked at Albert again. “Man, we’ll bear all of your father’s medical expenses. I’m very sorry.” Albert also felt somewhat unreal and hurriedly said, “Thank you, Mr. Clayton.” At this time, Joshua pretended to be surprised and recognized Leonard. “Oh, isn’t this Mr. Santos? I didn’t expect that we would meet here again.” As he spoke, he stepped forward to hold Leonard’s hand enthusiastically. He looked like he had met his dearest. The change in his attitude also amazed Leonard.
• In an instant, many people present showed shocked looks. It turned out that Joshua knew Leonard, and no wonder Leonard was so arrogant. On the other side, Johnny, who was squatting on the ground with his head in his arms, immediately understood everything when he saw this scene. He had offended someone big, and that man was Joshua’s friend. Albert also looked at Leonard in surprise. Unexpectedly, just after Leonard was released from prison, he not only owned a large company worth billions of dollars but also knew Joshua from Boundless Group. Judy was curious about Leonard at this moment. She found that she couldn’t see through Leonard, but she also let out a long sigh of relief. Since Leonard knew Joshua, what happened today was safe and sound. However, just as she was relieved, what Leonard did made the whole bar dumbfounded. He shook off Joshua’s hand and said coldly, “Do I know you?” He gave Joshua no face.
• Everyone in the bar trembled in fright, with shock in their eyes. “He’s crazy.” Someone said. Joshua had beaten his man, which was rare. But Leonard was embarrassing Joshua. The most important thing for the gangsters was the face. Sometimes for the sake of face, they could even sacrifice their lives. Even those who were not in the mob knew that this kind of public humiliation was a big taboo in the mob. “He probably got someone behind him, so he dares to act boldly.” Some people had already begun to mourn for Leonard in their hearts. It would definitely be very bl oody when Joshua freaked out. Judy was so frightened that her hands trembled, and her mouth opened wide. She thought even if Leonard knew Joshua, he couldn’t talk like this. It was too embarrassing for Joshua. She hurriedly came out from behind the bar counter, came quietly behind Leonard, pulled his sleeve, and said in a low voice, “Leonard, apologize to Mr. Clayton.”
