My Supermodel Wife

Leonard's face looked the same, and his eyes stared at Luke with deep and gloomy eyes. "You don't plan on continuing to pretend?"

"Since you know everything, it doesn't make sense for me to pretend any longer. However, you should know that your absence for all these years has cost you a lot."

"You can ask the elders of every major family, is there someone who is willing to support you as the head of the family? Aside from having a good background, what else do you have? In terms of ability, I'm no worse than you. In terms of name, I am also the young master of the Adler family. Why did you, who ran away from Bandung, still have the right to be the heir? Is it because my father is not the head of the family that we have to give in and accept our fate?"

Luke's tone was sharp, and his face became much fiercer as he spoke.

He had hated Leonard for a long time, and he wanted to get rid of him!

Right now, compared to Luke's anger, Leonard seemed calmer.

He looked at Luke's angry expression, and said dryly, "Since you hate me so much, why don't you use your brain and that effort of yours to compete fairly with me?"

"Fair competition? Is that really a thing in this Adler family? That sounds good, the Patriarch is also known as a capable person, but what did your father do? Over the years, he has rejected all opinions and helped you grab the identity of the heir with his hands."

"Leonard, don't talk about fair competition. As long as your father is still sitting as the Patriarch, you think this is fair competition? No one in the Adler family is innocent, so don't talk about such a naive thing to me!"

Luke turned to leave, but the next second he stopped again. "Don't think I don't know what you intended to do when you said you wanted to go to the toilet with me. You want to save Lyle, right? It's fine, if you want to save him, you can give him the position of heir and I'll drop the lawsuit against him."

"Otherwise, I will do my best to keep Lyle from seeing sunlight outside this prison for life. Brother, don't doubt my methods, I know that your men are protecting Lyle. But in the same way, there are also my people who are stalking him. So you better think about it carefully."

"Lyle's life or death depends on your choice! It's easy to destroy someone in prison!"

Leonard heaved a sudden sigh. "A fight between families will not be enough to be sentenced to prison, don't you understand?"

Luke narrowed his eyes at him with a triumphant expression. "Oh, I almost forgot. My brother was once a police officer in the capital, and he knows the dogma laws of this country. But do not think I'm that stupid. Of course I know that this crime is not enough to keep him in jail."

"What if he has endangered society and blatantly destroyed other people's property worth hundreds of millions? That should be enough to qualify him as a criminal, and expect a jail time of more than three or even seven years. And if there is an accident while Lyle was in prison.. That'd be a really great pity!"

Luke felt he was high in the sky. Seeing Leonard becoming silent, he felt that his goal was accomplished.

Unfortunately, it's just an illusion.

When he was about to return to the banquet hall, Leonard suddenly spoke quietly. "Luke, if you're smart, what about the destruction of other people's property and the smuggling of illegal goods? Don't you think the punishment will be harsher than just punching a face?"

Luke trembled and glared. "What are you talking about?"

At this moment, Leonard was calmly leaning on the windowsill. He took out a cigarette to light it, and as he exhaled the white mist. The man then pursed his lips and smiled. "Is there something wrong with my words? Luke, why are you suddenly nervous?"

Luke forcefully suppressed the horror in his heart, then sneered involuntarily. "Your eyes just recovered, did you see wrong?"

Leonard cocked the corners of his mouth, biting the butt of his cigarette, and spoke in a nonchalant tone.

"The crime of destroying property you mentioned earlier… I thought it was the Graham family yacht fire incident. But of course it can be solved if we pay the losses along with a little interest. So I just had to pay it back and hire a lawyer to put Lyle under house arrest."

"You said earlier that you are not stupid, then you try to explain to me whether the crime of smuggling goods and drugs illegally is serious? Even though it's not drug smuggling, do you think the crime will get a light sentence? You should be sentenced to life… So what do you think?"

Luke was taken aback by his words.

He was silent for a long time, probably because there was a ghost in his heart, so he couldn't find a suitable reason to refute him.

At this moment, Leonard saw that Luke was starting to lose control, so he couldn't help but take out the cigarette case from his pocket. "Would you like a smoke to cool off?"

"Leonard, you're just talking nonsense… Do you want to set me up?!"

Luke didn't extend his hand to take the cigarette case, he looked back at Leonard questioningly.

Seeing this, Leonard looked at the cigarette case in his hand and rubbed it twice. "Set you up? Brother, do you think I will fight unprepared? Instead of wasting time with me, you better go back and ask. Ask your father if ten containers in the Queen Harbor have been arrested recently."

Hearing this, Luke's expression changed drastically!

As Leonard says this, he does not know what he said was true or not.

Those ten containers...

The shipment was always meant to be kept a secret, so how did he know?!

Leonard held his cigarette in a relaxed posture. "Now, do you believe it? Indeed, the port is suitable to be used as a place for illegal activities like yours because of the many tourists there. But you have to remember that the harbor belongs to our family, right? Nothing will escape my sight."

After saying this, Leonard casually squeezed out his cigarette butt and threw it out the window.

Before he turned and left, he looked back at Luke from a close distance. "Tomorrow morning, I hope you personally send Lyle back to me since you don't have much time! After all, to investigate and deal with smuggling matters... We only need to alert the police!"

After that, Leonard looked at him deeply, and then the corners of his lips filled with a smile again.

About a few minutes later, Luke returned to the dining room in a daze. During the dinner, his face was full of thoughts.

…

At eight o'clock in the evening, the family dinner ended.

On the way home, Leonhart approached Leonard, and the father and son went to the pavilion outside the Flower Hall.

The patriarch naturally saw Luke's face showing confusion during the banquet. Taking the teacup from the maid behind him, he said, "Have you solved Lyle's problem?"

"If there isn't an accident, he should be back tomorrow!"

Leonhart raised his eyes to look at him, raising his eyebrows. "How do you deal with it?"

Leonard sighed, telling the whole thing again.

Leonhart's cold eyes were covered with frost. "How did you find the secret?"

A branch family that Lockhart led seemed to be starting to dare to do this kind of illegitimate business!

Truly very brave!

Hearing this, Leonard touched the bridge of his nose with a pleasant expression, "Actually I didn't know it. New cargo entered the port last night.. I'm just speculating that something is in the container. I didn't expect him to be so panicked and show his true face!"
