Chapter 61 A Big Short's Prisoner

• Although Leonard was recognized as Waylon’s distinguished guest, a bigger crisis followed. The Loftus family had a special relationship with the Governor, and the Governor was another force that Waylon also needed to flatter. Even if Waylon valued Leonard more, he would not be able to offend the Governor for just a young man. So once the Governor bullied Leonard, Leonard would still end in no good. This was the thought held in everyone’s mind. “Well…” Cheryl also looked worried. “Don’t worry. I’ll take care of the Governor’s side.” Leonard gave Cheryl a slight smile. Hearing this, Cheryl just sighed. It was not that she didn’t trust Leonard but that the Governor had too much power; if it couldn’t be handled properly, there would be big troubles. But looking at Leonard’s appearance, it seemed that he didn’t take the Governor seriously, which made her more worried about him. Leonard was a billionaire at such a young age, which was indeed extraordinary. It was just that if you got carried away because of this, you would definitely get punished. And at this moment, there was a cheering excitement in the hall. Waylon Lambert, the protagonist of today’s banquet, and Parker Evans, the Governor of Newden City, came together. “Waylon finally reached cooperation with Parker. It seems that the news revealed by Mr. Loftus is not false at all.”
• Someone commented. “Mr. Evans attended the celebrity dinner in person today and stood for Mr. Lambert. Mr. Lambert’s position in the business community of Newden City is firmly established.” Many people were talking in low voices. Although Waylon was the director of the Newden Chamber of Commerce, there were still many business leaders in Newden City who were no worse than Waylon. Even his position as the director was not so secure. Every year uncountable people wanted to replace him. But with the support of the Governor of Newden City, Waylon’s influence would reach its peak. No one would dare to compete with him for the position of director. The Governor might not necessarily be more powerful than Waylon in finance, but he could bankrupt any financial giant like Waylon with a single word. “Mr. Evans is here; he must help the Loftus family; this Leonard is going to be doomed.” some people commented. “Although Mr. Evans is a domineering man, he always respects his teachers. He has repeatedly advocated that one should treat his teacher like his father and respect him for his whole life. Since the Loftus is the descendants of his teacher, he will definitely stand up for them,” some people added.
• “Mr. Evans is tough, and he had never been softhearted towards the enemy…” Others added. The appearance of Parker and Waylon brought the banquet to a climax. Even when Waylon stood in front of Parker, his face was full of compliments. If it weren’t for Leonard’s reasons, Waylon would not be able to meet Parker. “Mr. Evans, finally, you’re here.” As soon as Parker walked in, Kylo hurried up to meet him. “Kylo, glad to see you here!” Seeing Kylo, Parker smiled. Because of his teacher, he visited the Loftus family once, so he knew Kylo. “Mr. Evans, if you don’t come, I will be kicked out of the banquet,” Kylo hurried to explain. “What happened?” Parker frowned suddenly. He noticed Kylo’s swollen cheeks. “It was me. I gave him a lesson.”
