Chapter 65 I Have the Final Say
It turned out that Rhett was captivated by Susan’s beauty, so he insisted on having her the big shots at the dinner.

“Whether others go or not doesn’t matter, but you must go!” Rhett’s attitude was resolute.
Heston, Sophie, and others quickly tried to convince Susan.
“Although they say it’s being a drinking partner, it’s just having a meal together. Don’t overthink it.”
“And the guests at this dinner are the top–tier big shots of the business world in Sherland. Besides the Sullivan family, there are also the heads of the Peterson, Davis, and Martinez families. Just knowing one of them will guarantee a smooth career!”
Sophie pleaded in a coquettish manner, “Susan, please consider helping me out. I really need this opportunity.
“You know, I’ve tried applying to the Davis family’s large company three times and failed. Members of the Martinez family will also be there. I really need this opportunity.”
Although Susan was kind and understanding of everyone’s situation, she had her own principles when it came to doing things.
“I came to attend a class reunion, not to have dinner with strangers,” Susan stated her position clearly and continued to address Sophie. “Susan, I’m afraid I can’t help with this matter.
“If you’re willing to come to our company, I can assist you.”
Sophie said, “What I need is a job with an annual salary of one million dollars. Can you arrange that for me?”
Susan smiled bitterly and shook her head. “I’m afraid I can’t.”
Susan herself couldn’t meet that standard.
“See!” Sophie seized the opportunity and continued, “But as long as we can enter this important occasion today and casually get to know some influential people, a million–dollar salary won’t be a problem.”
“Sophie is right,” Heston continued persuading. “Those big shots at today’s dinner, just knowing one of them will be the starting point for a million–dollar salary!”
Rhett added, “Don’t worry. The attendees at the dinner are mainly the elders of the major families. Even I don’t have the qualifications to attend. This will be an opportunity to change your destiny!”
But no matter how others tried to persuade, even resorting to moral coercion, Susan remained firm in her refusal.
“If you don’t go, we will all miss this opportunity!” Heston lamented with a heavy heart.
“You’re really selfish!” Sophie was on the verge of breaking up with Susan.
At the sight of this, Leones thought to himself, “It is probably the dinner invited by the Sullivan family.
“But I didn’t ask for any female companions for the dinner, right?
“Who on earth takes the liberty to find female companions outside?”
“Hurry up!” Rhett urged, “The dinner over there is about to start. If it weren’t for the unexpected situation, you wouldn’t even have this opportunity. Hurry up and follow me!”
Rhett was growing impatient. His father had instructed him that the dinner on the other side

could start at any moment, so he didn’t have time to go out and find people. He could only look for candidates within the building.
Coincidentally, at Heston’s class reunion, there were many recently graduated innocent and beautiful girls, especially Susan, who was considered the campus belle. Rhett was immediately captivated by her.
“Susan, just consider it as accompanying me. Let’s go!”
Sophie didn’t give Susan a chance to argue and signaled to another female classmate. Together, they forcefully supported Susan and started walking towards the exit.
“I’m not going…” Susan struggled hard. “Let go of me!”
“Enough!” At this moment, Leones stepped forward and pushed Sophie and the others aside.
“What are you doing?” Sophie angrily glared at Leones. “What business is it of yours?”
Leones stood in front of Susan and said, “I advise you not to waste your efforts. Even if you go, you will still be kicked out.”
“Whether we get kicked out or not isn’t for you to decide!” Heston sneered, “How would you
know?” ~
In a cold tone, Leones said, “In this matter, I have the final say!”
What?
This statement surprised everyone.
They looked at Leones as if he were crazy.
Who did he think he was? He had the final say?
“Interesting…” Even Rhett couldn’t help but laugh. “Heston, who is this? Such audacity! He says he has the final say in the event that I don’t even have the qualifications for?”
“Mr. Rhett Sullivan, don’t listen to his nonsense,” Heston quickly explained, “He spent a few years in prison, and there’s something wrong with his mind.”
Upon hearing this, Rhett ignored Leones and continued to urge Susan to go with him, telling her not to be ungrateful.
“Rhett, right?” Leones spoke up again. “Tell your grandfather and the others that I don’t need any companions. They shouldn’t act on my behalf!”
What?
As soon as the words came out, Rhett was momentarily stunned.
Then he turned to Heston and said, “You just said this guy has problems with his mind. I didn’t believe it at first, but now I do. He really is out of his mind.
“Who do you think you are to send a message to my grandfather? You think you have any say in that dinner?”
At the same time, their classmates looked at Leones with strange eyes.
They wondered if Leones had really gone crazy during his time in prison or had been through some traumatic experience.
Otherwise, how could he say those unfathomable words?
What connection did he have with a gathering of business tycoons?
How dare he utter arrogant words and even issue commands?

“Have you done? Leonés?” Heston also reprimanded him. “Those people over there are all CEOs worth hundreds of millions of dollars. What does it have to do with you?
“With your background as a former prisoner, you’re not even qualified to serve water to them!
“Get out of the way and stop causing trouble here!”
Seeing Leones getting into conflicts to defend her, Susan quickly tried to mediate. “Don’t argue, please.
“Heston, Mr. Rhett Sullivan, thank you for your kindness. But I’m not feeling well today, so I won’t go over there.”
Rhett snorted and said, “Don’t push it. Behave yourself! You’re not coming now? Then why do I wait here for such a long time?
“Come with me!”
Saving that, Rhett reached out and grabbed Susan’s wrist, forcefully trying to pull her along.
Heston and Sophie pushed from behind.
The group was tugging and pushing, pressuring Susan to leave.
“Let go!”
Leones stepped forward, grabbed Rhett’s wrist, and twisted it backward.
“Ah!” Rhett screamed in pain and immediately let go.
But Leones didn’t release his grip. He continued to twist Rhett’s wrist, slowly causing it to contort, forcing Rhett to yield and beg for mercy.
Rhett shouted, “My wrist is about to break…
“Let go!”
Rhett was drenched in cold sweat, and he could even hear the sound of bones being crushed in
his wrist.
Leones said coldly, “If you dare touch Susan one more time, I will disable you right now!”
