From Outcast to Overlord: The Unyielding Heir Novel

The Arbitration Office had quietly placed Leander on their list . After a brief preparation , the seven arbitrators split up and infiltrated Astria in secret , unbeknownst to Leander himself . Back in Ravenridge , after settling matters with Monica and her family , the Walsh family from Listin personally paid a visit the very next day . Not only did they return all of the Linsky Group's shares , but they also shared most of their resources in Mornwick . The corporate giants who had once taken part in suppressing the Linsky Group came one after another to apologize to the Sitwell family .

Linden was caught between anxiety and joy , not knowing how to handle the sudden goodwill . Yvette watched several high - powered tycoons behaving like juniors in her home . It all clicked- this was all because of Leander . She let out a quiet breath , her eyes shining as emotion welled up inside her . You've rewritten my fate too many times . Is there even room left in my heart for someone else ? The self - pity and despair she once clung to had long faded . No matter how Leander felt about her , she knew there would never be another man for her .

On the top floor of Ninecrest Group , Leander reclined on a leather couch , flipping through documents Frankie had brought him . " Mr. Leander , our group's value has now entered the world's top fifty and continues to rise . Previously , to establish the Phoenix Essence Pill's credibility , we used specialists for endorsement . " But now that it's well - established and influential both at home and abroad , the marketing team recommends finding a major celebrity to endorse the next campaign , " Frankie reported respectfully . " I've shortlisted a few names .

Once you decide , I'll start negotiations . " Leander closed the folder and set it aside . " A celebrity , huh ? If it's for Phoenix Essence Pill , pick someone young and popular - either a pop star or actor with solid domestic influence . Narrow it down from that list . " Frankie nodded , already confident in his choice . After chatting a bit more , Leander left the group building . Half a month to go before heading to Highcliffe University .

As he walked under the sunlit sky , Leander's thoughts were already in Highcliffe - where promises still waited , where someone 1/3 17:43 Tue , Oct 14 Chapter 189 You Are Actually Leander : was still waiting for him , and where the Ashcroft family owed him an explanation . 50 Finished At Rivergate Haven , Villa No.1 , just as he was about to relax on the couch , the doorbell rang . He opened the door . " It's you ? " he said calmly . Yvette stood there , bright - eyed . " Something wrong ? " Leander asked . " Did the Walsh family go back on their word ? " She quickly shook her head . " No.

They returned everything and helped my dad establish partnerships with several major companies . I came just to see you . " She tilted her head and smiled . " Not going to invite me in ? " Though Yvette had always had a certain allure , she typically carried herself like an aloof goddess - unapproachable and cold . Now , every smile was gentle . But Leander seemed unmoved . " Suit yourself , " he said , waving her in . Seated in the living room , Yvette took the juice he offered and finally got to the point . " Leander , would you come with us to Listin again ? " He looked puzzled .

" Didn't we just settle things with the Walsh family ? " " There's an elite auction being held in West Listin these days . Madeline will be a special guest- she'll be performing . It's her first real concert since stepping into the entertainment industry . She invited me and Ginny to go ." She hesitated , then continued gently , " In the nine months you were gone , she kept trying to find news about you , but never could . She's still upset about what happened at Water Paradise- hasn't forgiven herself . She's been wanting to say sorry , but never got the chance .

I was thinking that if you went , it would mean the world to her . If she saw you there , I know she'd be happy and feel more confident . " Her gaze held his , nervous yet hopeful . Her reason was genuine , but part of her wanted him there , too . " Her first concert ? " Leander rubbed his nose . Since his last parting with Madeline , his feelings for her had cooled . At the thought of the late Hazel and the little girl who once followed him everywhere , he softened . " Alright . Let's go have a look ." Yvette's face lit up in joy .

That afternoon , Leander , Yvette , and Ginny boarded a flight to West Listin . Leander leaned back by the window , watching the clouds pass while the girls chatted about Madeline's recent growth . 2/3 17:43 Tue , Oct 14 Chapter 189 You Are Actually Leander 50 Finished " She's turned down so many commercial gigs , " Ginny commented . " Been studying music seriously , composing her songs . That one she sang for us - she wrote it herself ! She's going to be one of the top pop stars in all of Astria ! " Yvette nodded . " She's got real talent .

Glorious Entertainment is putting everything into shaping her image . If things keep going this way , she could be as big as Maeve ." She glanced at Leander . She knew well that Madeline's rise was thanks to the man sitting beside her . One word from him had carved out a smooth path for Madeline's future . Just then , a sweet voice came from across the aisle . " Hi there ! " They turned to see a curvy young woman smiling warmly . " Were you talking about Madeline from Glorious Entertainment ? " Yvette and Ginny exchanged surprised glances . " Yes , we were . She's a close friend of ours .

You know her , too ? " The girl nodded . " Then , you must be Yvette and Ginny - Madeline mentioned you . I know her too ! We haven't known each other long , but we're good friends . What a coincidence , meeting you here ! Nice to meet you . I'm Grace Barret ." Delighted by the unexpected connection , the three quickly warmed to each other and chatted easily , their shared social circles giving them plenty in common . At one point , Yvette turned to Leander . " Leander , this is Ms. Barret . She lives in West Listin and is one of Madeline's good friends .

" As soon as Yvette said his name , Grace's eyes sharpened , her smile vanishing . She studied him for a long moment , her expression shifting . " So , you're Leander ? The one Madeline can't stop talking about ? " Her tone was sharp , full of mockery and disdain - nothing like the friendliness she'd shown the girls . Send Gifts 60 3/3
