Supreme Mars

Chapter 271 Catch You all

Everyone’s gaze fell upon Ronnie, who had been sitting on his seat all the time, right after Neil

questioned him in a low voice. Even Irene and Michelle stared at Ronnie in astonishment, because

they never expected that he would be the one helping them at such a critical moment.

At this point, Ronnie rose to his feet slowly with a sullen face against everyone’s unfriendly look.

"Mr. O’Brien, would you please do me a favor and let them off?"

Hostility glinting in his eyes, Neil squinted at Ronnie instead of flying into a rage. "Ronnie, we’ve always

been close to each other, and I know you’ve liked Michelle for a long time. I was going to give her to

you tonight, but why would you suddenly make such a ridiculous request?"

Roman, Marcel, Fabian and Mollie also stared coldly at Ronnie, waiting for him to give an explanation.

Ronnie said frankly after a long pause, "People change. It’s true that I like Michelle, but I can never get

her heart by playing tricks."

Astonished, Michelle felt as if she had never known Ronnie before.

Neil’s expression froze, but he still nodded. "Well, fine. I’ll let Michelle go. After all, she’s a star. It’ll do

no good to the O’Brien family if things escalate."

"And let her go too!" Ronnie pointed at Irene and said.

"Ronnie Stewart…" Hardly had Ronnie finished his words than Neil roared with a scowl.

Everyone was startled by Neil, who glared at Ronnie with veins popping out of his forehead. "I’m

already doing you a favor by letting Michelle go. Don’t push your luck!"

"Neil’s right! We can’t let Irene go!" Mollie chimed in with resentment, "Ronnie, I know you’re from the

Stewart family, but there’s a lot of us here. Are you sure you want to be our enemy?"

Dwayne also stepped forward, his face sullen. "Ronnie, Mr. Stewart, we respect you, but now, you owe

us an explanation!"

Ronnie went silent upon hearing that, and his face darkened.

Meanwhile, both Irene and Michelle also wanted to know why Ronnie would help them.

Now that Leo had passed out, the two women couldn’t get out of this dangerous place at all. But why

would Ronnie help them running the risk of offending everyone else present? Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

"I’m afraid you’ve long betrayed me, haven’t you?" Neil asked, his voice grim.

What Neil said sent shivers down everyone’s spine. At the same time, Dwayne stared at Ronnie in

disbelief.

"It’s impossible for Leo to see through my game, no matter how resourceful he is. However, he would

suddenly suspect that I drugged his drink. Is that normal?"

Scowling at Ronnie, Neil asked slowly, "You must have tipped him off, right?"

"Did you? You betrayed us!" Dwayne also asked through clenched teeth. "Only the three of us knew

the plan!"

Ronnie stayed silent, his fists clenched, as if he was under strong pressure. But just as he looked over

at Leo, who had blacked out but still looked calm, Ronnie suddenly got an answer.

He took a deep breath and looked right into Neil’s eyes. "I’m afraid you’re wrong. Your plan would

never have worked out, no matter I tipped him off or not, because you won’t make it anyway. In Leo’s

eyes, you’re nothing but a clown!"

"How dare you!" Neil burst into anger. "You’re not seeing the big picture here, Ronnie! You master Leo

is on the chopping block. He’s at our mercy now, and so are these two women. You’ll get yourself killed

by going against me at this moment!"

"It’s true that you’re the head of the Stewart family, but your family has been on the wane, and you’re

not so powerful as you think!"

Ronnie said nothing, his face clouding over.

Neil was right. The Steward family had been declining rapidly, and their family business was failing.

The Stewart family was no longer so powerful as it had used to be. Even the O’Brien family could pick

on him.

A sneer suddenly crossed Neil’s face. "Do you think you’re still an eagle? No, you’re just a bird without

wings. You’re a sitting duck."

"Right! You’re just a sitting duck!"

Neil looked at Ronnie with contempt. "Even if the Stewart family was powerful as before, you’d still be

our laughing stock. Why must you act when you can work in your family business? How ridiculous!"

"Ronnie, just leave us alone. Run!" Michelle couldn’t help but ask Ronnie to leave.

Ronnie remained unmoved. It was Leo who had helped him become the head of the family, so

betraying him was the last thing Ronnie would do. He hated betrayal, and once was enough for him.

"Ronnie, I’ll give you one last chance. Will you obey me?" Neil was coming to the end of his patience,

his temples throbbing.

Ronnie, nevertheless, gave a contemptuous smile. "I didn’t even obey Bertie at that time. You’re just

the head of the O’Brien family. Do you think you deserve my loyalty?"

"Great!" What Ronnie said got Neil riled, and he growled sullenly, "Since you want to die so badly, I’ll

kill you first!"

Suddenly, all bodyguards of the O’Brien family took out the gun from their pockets and aimed it at

Ronnie’s head.

"Run, Ronnie!" both Irene and Michelle yelled anxiously, their faces pale.

However, Ronnie remained where he was, even if he was the sitting target now. There was even a faint

smile on his face. "Mr. Cohen has always been wary of me, but I don’t think he’ll be from now on."

Just as Neil was about to give the order to shoot Ronnie, a burst of laughter rang out abruptly.

"You’re right. You didn’t let me down."

Everyone was shocked by the laughter, and one would find it fun to see the looks on their faces.

"Who’s talking?" Neil’s first reaction was to look around.

Ronnie started, and the next moment, he looked back behind Irene.

Leo, who had been in a trance, was no longer there. At this moment, he was sitting calmly on the chair

sipping tea.

"Leo?! Shouldn’t you be drugged?"

Suddenly, everyone shrank back in astonishment, as if they had seen a ghost.

Irene and Michelle, nonetheless, was overwhelmed with joy. "You’re all right, Mr. Cohen?!"

All the color drained from Neil’s face as he saw Leo. "If he was drugged, he couldn’t have woken up so

quickly, which means, he wasn’t drugged at all. He was faking it!"

"Exactly. My intuition told me someone else, besides the O’Brien family, must be plotting against me, so

I pretended to pass out to see if I could lure them out. Sure enough, you haven’t let me down."

Leo’s eyes swept around the room as he said with a calm tone, but it sent a chill down everyone’s

back.

It didn’t matter if Leo didn’t know Neil’s scheme because he used his internal strength to make the drug

ineffective. Tricks like this would never hurt him.

"Besides, I want to take advantage of this opportunity to test your loyalty to me." Suddenly, Leo turned

to Ronnie and nodded with a smile. "You haven’t let me down either."

Ronnie slumped down in the chair, wet with cold sweat.

Leo wondered if Ronnie would betray him and look on indifferently in the worst situation. To him, to

watch Irene and Michelle being insulted by so many people was to betray!

But fortunately, Ronnie had passed the test.

That was really intense!

"Well, since everyone’s here… I’ll catch you all!"

Leo’s cold gaze swept across everyone’s face before he stood up slowly and strode towards

them.
