Chapter 1441: Chapter 1440: Old Hei Was Joking With You

However, this cannot be an excuse for breaking the contract!

"When the marriage contract was discussed initially, both families agreed that no matter what, the marriage contract could not be broken!"

Although somewhat overbearing, this clause indeed assured both parties at the time.

It was precisely because of this that the Davis and Blackwood families became longtime allies.

Now, Leon Blackwood’s actions are clearly attempting to dissolve the friendship bridge between the two families.

"Okay, I will report this matter to the head and elders of the Davis family right now. As a mere woman, I won’t participate in your affairs."

After saying this, Mrs. Davis prepared to leave the area.

Seeing her mother like this, Nia Mitchell felt a bit uncomfortable inside.

Maxwell Peary finally realized the true purpose behind Leon Blackwood’s invitation. It turns out he was waiting here.

Leon had long wanted to annul the marriage contract; otherwise, he wouldn’t have carried the marriage certificate with him.

The matters happening around Nia Mitchell today were part of a conspiracy, with Nia merely serving as the catalyst.

And the person who publicly unraveled their family relations was Maxwell Peary.

Everyone knew about Young Master Peary’s reputation, and his power was exceptionally strong, so dealing with him was not a matter of overnight for the Davis family.

Thus, he and Nia Mitchell became the best candidates.

Thinking about this, Maxwell Peary couldn’t help but acknowledge how clever he was!

"The Blackwood Emperor lives up to his name!"

Maxwell Peary started clapping directly.

Leon Blackwood, seeing Maxwell Peary had already figured it out, was also quite impressed, turning his head to look at him.

"Young Master Peary truly is Young Master Peary!"

After both exchanged flattery for a while, Maxwell Peary spoke directly.

"Mrs. Davis, don’t be angry. Old Leon was just joking with you; this marriage certificate is fake, the annulment was also fake."

Um...

Mrs. Davis was a bit taken aback, what did Young Master Peary mean by this?

He called Leon Blackwood ’Old Leon’?

This isn’t the point; the point is he said it was a joke?

Ah, what is going on here?

On the side, Leon Blackwood’s face darkened; he never expected Maxwell Peary would pull such a stunt.

He definitely couldn’t refute Maxwell Peary calling it a joke in front of everyone.

In this situation, he had no choice but to nod.

"Old Maxwell is right; I was just joking. The marriage certificate is fake."

Well!

The parties have declared it a joke, so regardless of whether Leon has a face that couldn’t possibly be joking, you have no way of dismissing it.

"That’s good then."

Although Mrs. Davis was full of doubt and disbelief, she could not say anything else.

And Maxwell Peary’s clever move indeed made people...

Tsk tsk.

But even Maxwell Peary couldn’t believe that Leon Blackwood actually pulled out another marriage certificate.

It must be said, this person’s cunning is truly... immeasurable.

"Let the banquet begin."

Without further words, Leon Blackwood ordered the start of the next phase.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Davis could only frown and feeling displeased, head to the waiting room to find Serena Davis.

The marriage contract issue had been brushed aside, and naturally, she couldn’t ask Nia Mitchell to apologize now.

Doing so would only make the Davis family seem impolite and unreasonable.

Watching Leon Blackwood leave, Nia Mitchell reached out to hold the CEO’s hand, and the two began the evening’s banquet together.
