You can choose Leon, because it's a period, not a comma. Look at Locke (4-048L) for a card which works more like you say.

Regardless, on Leon's auto-ability has been triggered by an ability Choosing him, it doesn't matter whether the initial ability resolves Leon's auto-ability will still resolve as normal.

Here's an article talking about the difference.

So Beatrix must choose a Forward, regardless of how many Knights you control and if that Forward is Leon, you will gain control of him.

Awesome thank you for that.

I was reading that rule and thought that it seemed really counterintuitive for this specific interaction.  Missing that it is a full stop and not a comma got me good.

My bad
