With slightly quickened steps, Gisele approached Leo. She had her back to Lisa, and her brow was furrowed. With a slightly hesitant expression, she looked directly at Leo.

“Leo…,” she called softly. “Why did you go this far? Did you know Lisa before?”

Leo blinked a few times. He tilted his head slightly. “No. This is the first time I’ve met her.”

Leo’s answer was honest, but it didn’t put Gisele’s mind at ease. Slowly, she bit her lip.

“Then why are you acting like this?”

Leo gave a faint smi

    The people who saw it burst out laughing. They really hadn’t expected to witness such a hilarious scene. They thought that giving a rusty, ugly hairpin like that as a gift was a huge insult to someone like William Greenyard, an art lover.“You’re so bold to do that! You gave Mr. William a piece of junk. Are you crazy?” Franco giggled, staring at him mockingly.Others chimed in. “What you gave him is completely worthless. Are you trying to insult Mr. William, huh?”The manager, who shared the same opinion, immediately approached and placed a hand on Leo’s shoulder from behind. “Sir, you shouldn’t speak so formally to Mr. William. And giving him something worthless is completely out of line. You’re being utterly rude!”Gisele and Lisa didn’t know what to say. But their eyes turned to Leo. They were certain that Leo was a good person; there was no way he would intentionally insult Mr. William Greenyard.Leo also found all of this strange. However, all he had done was follow the system’s

    “Sir, you’re overreacting. There’s nothing wrong with this ticket. Mr. Leonard and the two women with him are entitled to attend this art performance with special privileges, as indicated by the VIP tickets they’re holding.”The manager tried to explain calmly. As the manager, he didn’t want this commotion to drag on. However, it turned out that Franco wasn’t satisfied with the manager’s answer. He snorted as he flung the ticket down in front of the manager.“So you’re saying I’m the one in the wrong, huh? Leo is the one in the wrong! He’s a poor guy who can’t even afford to buy food every day. I know for sure he must have committed a crime to get that VIP ticket.” Franco then pointed at Gisele and Lisa. “You two too, huh? You must have been tricked by Leo into helping him commit this crime. You’re in on it with him!”Franco’s eyes then narrowed at the manager. “Do your job properly! Don’t let this scruffy thief disgrace the Greenyard family! He doesn’t belong here.”“Leo didn’t steal

    “Look! A thief has snuck in here! He stole a ticket, stole clothes, and stole the shoes he’s wearing. All just so he could get into this event!”Franco shouted even louder. He deliberately pointed at Leo, drawing everyone’s attention to them. Their gazes turned cynical and disgusted at the presence of Leo, as well as Gisele and Lisa. Gisele’s blood boiled. “Leo wouldn’t do something so despicable! You’re slandering Leo. You’re the one who should be kicked out of here.”Lisa also stepped forward to defend him. “Leo came here legally. You showed up and suddenly accused him of being a thief. You’re so shameless!”Franco snorted and looked the two women up and down. They were incredibly beautiful to Franco. Unfortunately, these two women were actually defending Leo. Franco’s attraction to them both vanished instantly.“Huh, you two are the women Leo brought here, right? You must be thieves too. The clothes you’re wearing are stolen goods!”Gisele took a deep breath. “Don’t just make thi

    Ever since they first got out of the car, Gisele and Lisa had sensed that something was off. And now it was all confirmed. They stood speechless in front of an incredibly luxurious art gallery. It was the only art gallery owned by the Greenyard family—a gallery that was extremely famous in the city of Hivebee.Leo got out of the car and walked over to them. “Why are you two just standing there? Come on, let’s go inside!”Without turning her head even slightly, Lisa asked, swallowing hard, “Leo, you’re not joking, are you? Can we really get into this art exhibition?”“Of course I’m serious. Follow me.” Leo walked ahead. Gisele and Lisa followed, occasionally glancing back hesitantly. This was their first time attending an event like this.Since early that morning, Leo had taken Gisele and Lisa to buy dresses. And the prices were no joke—Leo bought them dresses costing thousands of dollars. Gisele got a dark blue dress. Her hairstyle, with her hair tied up and a hat, made her look eleg

    Regina looked at Cindy with wide eyes. Then she said gently, “Cindy, he’s not your father.”A little embarrassed, she glanced at Leo. She smiled hesitantly. “Forgive Cindy, Leo. She sometimes doesn’t know what she’s talking about.”Leo nodded. “It’s okay.”Leo’s gaze was fixed on the street, but his mind was elsewhere. He was trying to figure out what to do with Regina next. “Regina has become one of my sources of income. However, I can’t buy her anything when she’s busy working,” he thought, furrowing his brow.Shortly afterward, the sound of a system notification rang out.[Connection chain!][You’ve acquired Regina Wayne as one of your women. Regina has a special condition: if you spend money on Cindy Wayne, it will count as money spent by Regina Wayne.]The notification made Leo smile to himself. He’d finally managed to get money from this little lady after all. “So that’s how it is. Helping Cindy was definitely the right choice!” Leo thought with a small smile.The little girl

    Leo’s car was already parked in front of an affordable apartment building. He had come here because he’d agreed to Regina’s request to drive her to work today. Of course, Leo was happy to do it. In fact, Leo intended to do more than that.“This will be a great start. I’ll be nice to Regina and Cindy,” Leo said with a slight smile inside the car.The presence of a Porsche in front of the apartment building certainly caused a bit of a stir in the neighborhood. Especially when they saw a handsome man step out of it. They began whispering to each other about who Leo was.“Is he a celebrity?”“A celebrity? No. I think he’s a businessman. But why would he come to a run-down place like this?”Even though they were whispering, Leo could still hear them, because his senses had become sharper since he took the pill from the system. He could only smile slightly as the people there speculated about who he was. Leo felt how different it was to have a body and appearance like he did now compared to
