Chapter 269 - Getting Into Action

Even though Leon decided to go to the office on weekends, he wanted to finish his work quickly especially the one related to cooperation with his business partners, including a new partnership with Connery Corporation in which he just got a contract offer the night before.

"Once Connery Corporation joins my company, I don't need to worry. The massive promotion I will do for this film will run smoothly without having to use the company's funds. Ah, you are so smart, Leon. You are indeed a genius,

" Leon praised himself for successfully completing the paperwork that Aaron had signed earlier to submit to his personal attorney this afternoon for approval.

After finishing his work, Leon didn't go home right away, he was still sitting in his chair looking at the rest of his room which had been arranged very neatly and cleanly. Even though the office was closed on Saturdays, the cleanliness of the office was always maintained. There would be some cleaning services work on weekends just like today. Leon suddenly remembered what he did with Steffi two days ago when no one was in the office. He was wondering how he could be so passionate about Steffi at that time. He knew well that his desire to make love with Steffi faded away after both of them fought a lot.

Apart from that, he had lost interest in her, Leon was too tired to have sex because of so many things he had to take care of every day. That was why he felt confused about why he acted like a hungry beast the other day. He suddenly got intimate with Steffi without thinking twice, he was still not satisfied even after ejaculating so many times. But he still wanted Steffi, so they made love for almost an hour. They tried various styles of making love, from lying on the sofa, standing, doggy style to letting her ride him. They did everything without getting tired. Leon got angry after remembering that, he felt something strange about him at that time.

Leon hit the table hard as he remembered what he did before making love to Steffi.

"It seems I was too kind to Steffi, that woman has become very impudent and increasingly brave now. Fuck... just see what I will do to you Steffi, you will regret your disrespectful actions.

"

After remembering what he had done before being so violent with Steffi, he got very angry. He was sure that the drink Steffi gave him that afternoon must have contained stimulant drugs. Because there was no way he could be that horny in a short time without doing any foreplay. Moreover, he was still in the office and was very busy, so there was no way he could immediately be excited to make love if he wasn't stimulated by stimulant drugs.

"Hello,

" Leon talked to a phone with one of his right hands in Berlin.

"Come to London, transfer your duties to Martin. Accompany me in London.

"

"Yes, Sir. I will fly to London this afternoon,

" answered a young man on the other end of the phone politely to Leon. His name was Wayne Scoot, he was one of Leon's best right hands. He was very loyal to Leon.

"Good, I will pick you up at the airport once you arrive,

" Leon said flatly.

"I understand, Sir.

"

After talking for a short time, Leon then turned off his international call and put his smartphone on the table again. He was still very annoyed at what Steffi had done two days ago. Leon purposely called Wayne to help him take care of Steffi. She was very afraid of Wayne because he was a heartless and ruthless man who would do any task Leon gave him. He would not hesitate to take someone's life if it was the task he had to do. That was why Leon liked Wayne so much. Steffi had seen Wayne shoot a man in the forehead when he was trying to fight Leon, since then Steffi had always avoided confronting Wayne. And this time Leon would use the opportunity to put some distance between himself and Steffi. That way, Steffi wouldn't interfere with his plan again. Especially now that Anne, the woman he targeted, was already in his hands. Soon, he would take over Anne completely.

Leon's evil smile appeared as he walked out of his room with the file he was going to give to the lawyer. His steps stopped as he walked in front of Anne's room.

"You will be Mrs. Ganke again, my dear Marianne. Only a smart and beautiful woman like you deserves to be with me,

" he said quietly.

"With you standing next to me, my business rivals will be afraid of me. They will surely fear and respect me for having a beautiful and smart wife like you. I will make sure you will be mine again, Marianne, I swear.

"

On the other hand, in a supermarket in the middle of the city, Aaron was seen standing staring at the rows of the best steaks that were still very fresh. He deliberately came to the supermarket to shop for groceries. Aaron wanted to celebrate his success in approaching Leonardo Ganke with Anne by cooking in his apartment. Especially since it was the weekend, Aaron wanted to start a new relationship with Anne. He had no problem with Anne's status as a widow. After being given a lot of advice by Daniel, Aaron now realized that what he had been thinking all this time was wrong. He was wrong to think that all widows have such evil traits, like the widow who had destroyed her family's happiness a few years ago.

"You're not a saint so you don't have the right to judge someone just from their past,

" it was Daniel's words that succeeded in making Aaron realize he had been wrong all this time.

Aaron stopped putting various ingredients for the barbecue party into the shopping cart he was pushing.

"I think that's enough, now let's go find some fruit. Anne will be happy if I bring these healthy foods,

" Aaron muttered happily, his smile widened as he pushed his shopping cart down the aisle displaying various kinds of fresh fruit.

Aaron's shopping cart hit a cart belonging to a beautiful young woman who wanted to come to the fruit aisle as well.

"I'm so sorry, Miss, are you all right?

" With a gentle manner, Aaron immediately apologized even though it wasn't his fault.

"Ah, it's my fault. I should be the one apologizing to you, Sir. I didn't see you coming my way as well. I was careless,

" replied a beautiful girl who turned out to be Kimberly Henderson. She pretended to be guilty, even though she had been eyeing Aaron as soon as she saw the presence of the handsome CEO of a rising star property developer company.

"No… Miss, it's my fault for being so focused on looking at these fruits that I didn't walk carefully. Are you hurt? Should we check if you get hurt or not?

" Aaron asked quietly, his eyes fixed on the red ankles of the girl he'd just bumped into. Aaron felt a sense of guilt after seeing it.

Kimberly smiled slightly, her plan worked. It turned out that Aaron had been tricked, her effort to hurt her leg using the metal of her shopping cart was not in vain.

"I-I'm fine, I'm not hurt so you don't have to ouch…

"

Kimberly screamed as she moved her feet, she could really feel the pain in her leg at this point.

"Miss… please don't move, don't push yourself too hard!!

" Aaron shouted quite loudly when he heard Kimberly scream in pain, he immediately approached Kimberly who was now kneeling.

From a distance, Marissa Henderson just smiled while seeing the scene,

"Good, everything is going well. One big fish almost got into the trap.
