From A Prisoner To A Big Short’s Inheritor ( Yves Jimmy) novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58
The bumpkin who snuck into the banquet dared to slap Kylo, the son of the chairman of Loftus Group.
Everyone was stunned by Leonard’s slap and shocked.
Kenia was so scared that her face turned pale.
Her cousin was too impulsive, and now he had caused big trouble.
“Oh my go d, what did I just witness? Kylo was hit! Where did this guy come from, having such audacity? He has really crossed the line this time.”
“By hitting the young master of the Loftus family at Mr. Lambert’s banquet, he has offended both Mr. Lambert and Governor’s Mansion.”
“The young master of the Loftus family was beaten. This is a great shame and humiliation. How can the Loftus family let it go? This kid is in serious trouble.”
Many people looked at Leonard with a little more pity.
Not only the Loftus family but any small family would not tolerate such behavior.
Leonard, a nobody who somehow found his way into the banquet, dared to act wildly at the party. He had brought himself
an enormous disaster.
Emily finally realized the severity of the situation. She rushed over to help Kylo up and shouted at Leonard, “Leonard, you are dead meat for hitting my husband.
“You can’t imagine the power of the Loftus family. I will send you to prison for life and also make things difficult for Kenia.”
“She will even go to jail with you, and the Loftus family has such power.”
At this moment, Kylo got up, covering his face.
Leonard’s slap was hard enough to knock out two of his molar teeth.
Now, with a very disheveled appearance, Kylo watched Leonard with ferocious eyes.
“Leonard, you’re finished. I’ll make sure you are doomed to a bad end.”
Hearing this, Leonard sneered disdainfully.
Three years ago, he was sent to prison without putting up a fight. That kind of powerless and despairing thing would never happen to him again.
“What happened? Who dared to cause trouble at this celebrity banquet?”
Just then, a middle-aged man with a solemn expression and in uniform walked over with a walkie-talkie in his hand.
“Mr. Woods is here.”
“Mr. Woods is Mr. Lambert’s confidant. He is fully responsible for organizing this banquet.”
“This is a big deal. Mr. Woods is known to be a tough and ruthless person.”
“When I came in at that time, I saw Kylo and Mr. Woods talking cordially, so they must have a good relationship. Mr. Woods will definitely side with Kylo.”
“This guy has kicked the hornet’s nest this time. If he bowed his head and apologized before, at most, he would have received a beating, and it would be over. But now it’s not that simple.”
“You are right. There are always some people who don’t shed tears until they were done for. Now he has no time to cry.”
As the chairman of the Newden Chamber of Commerce, Waylon had a significant influence in the business world.
His subordinate, Mark Woods, might be just a manager, but the title didn’t mean much.
Everyone knew that Mark was Waylon’s true confidant because he worked as his driver before.
What was more, Mark was an unquestionably ruthless person, and many of his deeds were circulating within the circle of Newden City.
“Leonard, what should we do? We can’t get out of here now.”
Kenia’s voice began to tremble and sound on the verge of tears.
She was really scared.

Chapter 58
“Why are you standing here, Judy? What does this have to do with you?” Yule rushed over upon hearing the commotion and quickly pulled his daughter away, fearing she might be implicated.
Although Judy hesitated a bit, she didn’t dare to disobey her father but looked at her friend Kenia with sympathy.
If nothing unexpected happened, Kenia and Leonard would be done for today.
“Mr. Woods, this person sneaked into Mr. Lambert’s banquet and even hit me. I hope you can help me solve this problem,” said Kylo in a sinister tone.
After listening, Mark’s face turned cold, and he nodded. “Mr. Loftus, please rest a**ured. This is Mr. Lambert’s banquet. How could I let someone create chaos? I hit it off with you the first time we met, and I will definitely help you out.”
After finishing speaking, Mark looked directly at Leonard and ordered the security personnel who had just arrived, “Arrest him.”
In an instant, a group of security personnel rushed up and were about to take Leonard down.
“Wait a moment,”
Leonard suddenly spoke up and looked coldly at Mark, “I am a guest invited by Mr. Lambert. Do you dare to lay hands on me?”
Upon seeing Leonard’s firm attitude, some people around didn’t know whether to believe it or not.
“Is this guy really Mr. Lambert’s guest? Otherwise, why is he so confident talking to Mr. Woods like this?”
“That’s right. Usually, when someone reaches this point, they would have given in since Mr. Woods represents Mr. Lambert.”
Hearing this, Mark couldn’t help laughing.
“Boy, you’re using this kind of argument at this time.

“For this celebrity dinner party, Mr. Lambert entrusted me with full responsibility. I personally arranged for my men to deliver invitation cards to all the guests who came to attend this dinner.
“However, I don’t remember inviting someone like you.”
Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd began to shake their heads.
“So it turns out that this guy did sneak in without invitation. Mr. Woods is in charge of the whole event and doesn’t even know him.”
“No wonder he came in wearing just casual clothes. That’s probably the best outfit for someone like him.”
“A guy
who snuck in here actually dares to be so arrogant. I’ve truly seen it all today.”
“At this point, he’s still talking tough. If it weren’t for the fact that Mr. Woods knew the truth, we might have been fooled by him.”
“Boy, do you have anything else to say?” Mark looked at Leonard with an unfriendly expression..
“Of course, my invitation card was not delivered by your people because it was handed directly to me by Mr. Lambert,”
Leonard replied calmly.
Someone couldn’t help laughing out loud.
A few women covered their chests, afraid of exposing themselves from laughing too hard.
Upon hearing this, Mark was so angry that he chuckled.
“Boy, you are really a big talker. My boss is the chairman of the Newden Chamber of Commerce, and how many people in Newden City have the qualifications to receive a personal invitation from him?
“As far as I know, my boss did deliver an invitation to a person personally at this event, and it was to Mr. Evans, the Governor of the Newden City.
“You’re not going to tell me that you’re Mr. Evans, are you?!”
“Hahaha!”
Speaking of this, everyone around burst into laughter.
In everyone’s eyes, Leonard was a joke.
Emily couldn’t be happier at this moment. Leonard was definitely finished this time.
