Old Master Xavier is here!

Leah Thorne shivered and imdiately broke free from him. "President Xavier, your grandfather is here. If you dare to bully again, I’ll tell your grandfather, and let him deal with you!"

She said with a huff.

Justin Xavier didn’t say anything, but he licked his dry, thin lips, displaying his disappointnt. He glanced at Leah Thorne, "If you complain, my grandfather won’t deal with . He’ll just deal with you."

"Why?"

"Because you little enchantress are always clinging to , driving crazy."

"Oh," Leah nodded, "It seems your grandfather truly loves you."

Leah got up to leave.

But Justin grabbed her slender wrist with a gentle pull, bringing her directly onto his firm thigh.

At this mont, footsteps ca gradually from outside the door, "Where is Justin? I need to see Justin right now."

"Old Master Xavier, let inform him first. It’s not right to storm in like this."

"Hmph, I am Justin’s real grandfather. Do I need to be announced to visit my own grandson? What a joke!"

Old Master Xavier was right outside the door, Leah felt a bit panicked. She didn’t want to see any Xavier family mbers now. She coquettishly shot a glance at Justin, "President Xavier, if you don’t let go of now, your grandfather really will teach a lesson."

"If you go out like this, you’ll run straight into him. Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone teach you a lesson, except ." Justin granted himself this privilege.

Leah, "..."

The next second, Justin picked Leah up horizontally. With Old Master Xavier right outside, the only solution was to hide Leah. Justin reached out and tucked Leah into a small corner under his desk, then sat in his office chair.

With a "click," the study door was pushed open, and Old Master Xavier walked in.

The maid looked at Justin with difficulty, "Sir, this..."

Justin waved, "It’s fine, you can leave."

The maid quickly withdrew.

Old Master Xavier ca in, quite discontented, "Justin, I called you last night, and you didn’t answer. Now I want to see you, and it’s this hard?"

Leah was forced to crouch in this small corner. In front of her were Justin’s impressive long legs, leading up from his sharply tailored trousers to an expensive black belt around his trim waist, and further up to his handso yet infuriating face. Leah glared at him harshly.

Justin looked down at Leah by his leg, her glaring face resembling a cute, fierce kitten.

"Heh." A low chuckle rolled from Justin’s throat.

Old Master Xavier, already angry, suddenly saw Justin smiling. He actually smiled.

This was outright contempt for him!

"Justin, what’s so funny?"

Justin quickly composed himself, speaking seriously, "Grandfather, did I laugh? I wasn’t laughing."

"..." Old Master Xavier was left speechless, "Where is Leah Thorne?"

"She’s not here." Justin lied blatantly.

Old Master Xavier snorted when he suddenly saw the pillow and blanket on the sofa, his face changed, "What is this, Justin? Did you sleep in the study last night?"

Justin nodded, "Yes, I said a few harsh words to Leah last night, she got angry and kicked out, so I slept in the study."

"You! You, you!" Old Master Xavier looked at Justin in shock, trembling all over, "Justin, are you... insane? Are you really indulging Leah so much, I think she’s practically sitting on your head now!"

Old Master Xavier always thought Justin was the most like the Xavier family, but no one in the Xavier family had ever been so infatuated.

Hearing this scolding, Justin looked down again at Leah by his leg. She was indeed on his head now.

But he liked it.

"Grandfather, what’s the matter you ca to discuss with ? You already know, Leah and I are living together now. Between us, there’s no need for your interference." Justin said as his thin lips slightly curled.

Old Master Xavier felt his grandson was truly out of control. He stomped his cane heavily on the ground, "Justin, have you forgotten my warning? Between the empire and the beauty, you can only choose one."

The choice between empire and beauty...

Leah raised her enchanting eyes to look at him.

Justin’s handso face remained calm as he drew a slight curve with his thin lips, "Grandfather, you really are old, even the news you receive is outdated."

What does that an?

Old Master Xavier stiffened, feeling a very bad premonition.

At this mont, the study door was pushed open, and the butler rushed in, "Sir, sothing’s gone wrong!"

"What happened?"

"We just got news that all the people we placed on the board have been uprooted by the young master. Now the core team in the company is all on his side. At today’s shareholders’ eting, all the shareholders unanimously voted for your removal. This ans Xavier Corp now has nothing to do with you."

What?

Old Master Xavier’s breath halted. He feared the day Justin would break free of his control, so he never let go and even planted his own spies.

But now Justin had cut all his lines, directly pushing him out. Rembering how Justin had silently but with airtight precision taken charge with an iron fist recently, Old Master Xavier felt both heart-stopping and trembling.

"Justin, you..."

Justin leaned his handso back lazily into the chair, speaking nonchalantly, "Grandfather, you always wanted to choose between the empire and the beauty. I can give you the answer now: I’m a very greedy person. I want both the empire and the beauty."

"You!" Old Master Xavier staggered back a few steps, lucky the butler caught him.

Leah watched Justin in this mont, never denying the allure of Justin as a man. Such a handso, powerful man capable of overturning everything had protected her for a whole decade. It was hard not to be moved.

Apart from him, no other man had entered her eyes.

As Justin looked down, he saw Leah staring at him, eyes full of tears. Such a look... he hadn’t seen in years.

Justin couldn’t resist reaching out to pinch her small face.

This ti Leah didn’t resist, she softly nuzzled her small face into his palm, affectionately snuggling.

At this mont, Old Master Xavier’s voice ca through, "Justin, don’t be bewitched by Leah. These years she kept rejecting you, but recently she suddenly stopped resisting and started subtly seducing you. Haven’t you been suspicious?"

Leah felt Justin’s fingers suddenly pause.
