CHAPTER 884 THE SKELETON QUEEN
After being pointed out by his mother-in-law, Leo suddenly felt enlightened and had an answer in his
mind immediately.
"Thank you, mother-in-law!"
After saying a thank you, Leo immediately drove to the headquarters of L Group.
As soon as he entered, however, Leo sensed a tense and solemn aura.
All departments, from the top executives down to the junior staff, are busy with nervous faces.
Leo frowned and went to the president's office.
"What's going on? It seems like every department is in big trouble."
Lydia held a notebook in front of her and busied herself, saying without looking back, "The Henderson’s
is targeting us."
"The Henderson’s?!"
Leo froze and then walked over to have a look.
Only the notebook in front of Lydia was filled with stock movements.
The shares representing L Group, after several cycles of gains, finally saw a decline.
He was expecting a small drop, but it went all the way down and hasn't turned red since.
The shares representing the Henderson’s, on the other hand, were heading down for a few weeks
before seeing a rebound.
The two companies are going in opposite directions!
"What's going on here?"
Leo, who did not know much about business dribbling, immediately asked in surprise.
Lydia gave him a look and explained, "After the previous talks with the Henderson’s fell apart, our two
companies became rivals, but it was as if they could target us, whatever company we acquired, they
acquired before us, and even many companies that had already been negotiated to be acquired
changed their mind, which caused our stock to keep going down."
"Is that so? ......"
Leo was surprised and did not expect the Henderson’s to move so quickly.
Lydia rubbed her somewhat sore temples, stretched and sighed, "Marie has been interning at the
Henderson’s for so long, it seems to be working remarkably well and causing me no small amount of
trouble ......"
Leo, however, shook his head, "I think this might have nothing to do with Marie."
Lydia frowned and asked again, "If it's not Marie, who else could it be?"
Marie now holds the position of General Manager at the Henderson’s and she has to make decisions
on all matters.
The Henderson’s almost copied her old path for Marie, in the hope that she would reach the heights of
Lydia.
Leo narrowed his eyes and said, "If it was Marie, she would have fought you with legitimate and fair
business methods instead of engaging in targeting."
He and Lydia had previously visited Henderson’s group to talk about cooperation, which was a done
deal, but the matter was scuttled when Henderson’s vacated an acting chairman.
Yes, this acting chairman is none other than the Phantom's five-star executive, Violet.
Leo already knew the nature of the Phantom group, the Walker Clan, the imperial clan of Pompeii that
had been destroyed, and it was no surprise that Karl, as one of the only survivors of the Walker Clan
had gone with Violet.
He didn’t know what Karl wants, but in any case, he is no longer in S City, and Violet is in charge of the
big and small affairs of the Henderson family.
However, Marie, who worked at Henderson’s, had a hard time. She was clearly Karl's own daughter
and was regarded as Henderson’s heir, but because of Violet's presence, she had an empty title and
no real power.
So it could only be Violet who would do these things.
"Miss Henderson, Miss Violet from Henderson’s is here."
At this time, Rachel, Lydia's secretary, hurriedly walked in, her pretty face tightly tensed and gruff.
Lydia's expression suddenly went cold and she raised an eyebrow, "Invite her in."
Looking at this expression on Lydia's face, Leo knew that she was angry.
Although Violet's tactics caused trouble for Lydia, she was not that easy to be dealt with.
"It seems I've come at a really good time, Miss Henderson and Mr. Cohen are both here."
The sound comes before she arrives. copyrighted © content.
Violet's voice is ever magnetic, seductive and husky, mesmerising.
Standard Western mysterious facial features and a tall, full figure wrapped in a black professional suit.
Shed the gothic court dress, Violet was in a black and white professional outfit that is equally eye-
catching.
Even Leo had to admit that this woman, in terms of her beauty, her figure or her temperament, was not
inferior to Lydia, and had a spontaneity and ruthlessness that Lydia did not have.
Seeing Leo slightly lost in thought, Violet took the lead and came in front of Leo and gently smiled,
"Leo, am I better looking than Miss Henderson?"
"......"
It's a big no-no to ask to someone's husband, if I'm better looking than your wife, in his wife’s face.
Blatantly challenging Lydia's bottom line and measure of patience!
At once, Lydia's eyes went cold, looking dangerously and sharply at Violet: "If you want a beauty
pageant, you can choose to make your debut."
Faced with Lydia's counterattack, Violet was not together in the slightest and continued to look at Leo
with a smile, waiting for her answer.
Leo hastily withdrew his eyes and replied, "She is more elegant and educated than you."
Violet froze, then laughed, "Can that be a meal?"
"I've just found out on my way up here that your company is in a mess now."
Violet narrowed her eyes at Leo and Lydia and said, "That's why I'm here."
"Come in."
Violet waved outside again, and soon another person walked in, it is Marie. "I'm sorry, sister, I couldn't
stop her."
With a frustrated look on her face, Marie said and glared up at Violet angrily.
However, Marie was startled by the mere faint sweep of Violet's beautiful eyes and hurriedly lowered
her head.
It is not difficult to guess that she was frightened by Violet on a regular basis.
Lydia's eyes became even more gloomy: "You have to play such underhanded tricks, don't you?"
She had heard that Marie had not done any of these things, but Violet had.
Marie blocked it, but without success.
Violet smiled and said, "Effective means, I don't think it's underhanded."
Then she looked at Leo: "Still, as long as Mr. Cohen can grant me a request, I will compete with you
fairly."
"What's the request?"
Leo narrowed his eyes, "If you're still recruiting me, just give up."
The last time they talked about cooperation, Violet had asked Leo to join the Phantom, and was
mercilessly refused.
Violet smiled, "Of course not, I don't do useless things."
"I want to ask you to help me find someone, my sister."
With that, Violet pulled out a photo and handed it to Leo.
Leo took a look at it and froze for a moment.
In the photo is an equally sultry and seductive hot woman with a more powerful aura than Violet.
But that's not the point, the point is that Leo knows her!
Sofia, Queen of the Skull and Bones Society.
The woman who fell in love with him at first sight overseas.
