Donald might have failed to get revenge on Joseph's behalf, but the latter could still get one last chance to vent his anger by chasing Leon out of the company.
To top it off, Leon would lose the company's protection and intervention if he was fired, thus paving the way for Joseph to call the police and have Leon arrested.
"You? Firing me? As if you have the authority!"
Leon glared coldly at Joseph and walked slowly toward him.
"What are you doing? I'm warning you! D-d-don't you dare come any closer…"
Joseph continued to back away and a bad feeling rose faintly from his heart.
"I have this urge to beat you up again because looking at you is pissing me off!" Leon sneered.
The situation went so far past the point of no return that there was nothing for him to be scared of anymore.
It would feel so good if he could teach Joseph a lesson and vent all that anger on the man.
After all, Leon clearly remembered that Joseph wanted him dead.
He believed that everything would be worth it even if he damaged his reputation in Iris's eyes and she kicked him out of the company.
"How dare you…"
Joseph's expression changed dramatically. His first instinct was to escape, but alas, there was nowhere for him to go.
"Stop right there!" a cold voice ordered just as Leon. raised his fist and was about to deal a blow to Joseph.
Ariel entered in her high heels.
"Miss Summers! Thank heavens you came! Hurry up and help me…"
Joseph rejoiced and rushed up to Ariel at once.
"What in the world just happened, Mister Conrad? What's with this mess?!"
Ariel's expression soured to the extreme as she looked at the cluttered floor and the six injured security guards.
"Well, you see, it all started with Leon. He…" Joseph pointed at Leon and gave a brief rundown of what happened, but he conveniently omitted the fact that he bullied Lily and deliberately made the situation difficult for Leon.
"What? You did all this, Leon?"
Ariel was stunned and she looked incredulously at Leon.
The previous motorcycle incident gave her the impression that Leon was a sissy, so one could imagine her surprise when she heard that the person whom she thought was a sissy knocked down six strong security guards all by herself!
That would be quite a show of bravery!
'Just my type!' A twinkle appeared in Ariel's eyes.
Joseph was a little puzzled. Ariel looked at Leon with a pissed-off expression when she first came, but oddly enough, she seemed to be excited for a reason after he explained everything to her.
"Yes. I did all this. But I won't take all the blame for this. Mister Conrad made his subordinate uncomfortable and forced his degenerate impulses on-"
Leon began to explain what happened in detail, but Joseph interrupted him and said, "He's lying! Miss Cameron and I were discussing work inside the office. I have no intention of pressuring her into doing anything she doesn't want to do. It's all a big fat lie! Go ahead and ask her now! She'll tell you whether or not I'm lying!"
Leon smiled coldly.
Joseph still tried to be stubborn, but that would soon end when Lily exposes his lies!
