The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2241
"Also, Elegante has been expanding very well in the last two months. It's not far away from becoming a large business! Based on my initial assessment, the Thompsons' first line of descendants will be able to at least make a few hundred million a year for the family through Elegante! If you want to contend with Yuri for the position of the family heir in the future, your elders and core members of the family will support Yuri since he has Elegante as a trump card. They won't support you," Joel continued to add.
"Then what should I do?" Yonas' mood sank.
He knew that what Joel was saying made a lot of sense!
Since the family focused on raising Yuri the past few years, Yuri was already working within the family's businesses, and held quite a lot of power!
Instead, he merely had some inane positions in the business!
On top of that, he did not have a foundation in business at all!
If he wanted to fight Yuri over the position of the family head in the future, he would be at a huge disadvantage!
That was not something he wanted to see!
"That's simple! If you want to defeat Yuri, then I would suggest that you establish your foundations just like he did," Joel said.
"You're not wrong! However, I don't have that much money to my name, and I don't have much power over the family businesses. nvëlx.o How could I do that?" Yonas said with a bitter look on his face.
He knew that his grandfather always favored Yuri, and wanted to hand the power over the family back to the first line of descendants!
It would be incredibly difficult for him to gain any amount of capital from his grandfather to establish a business!
His grandfather would not support him!
"Mister Thompson, don't get too frustrated right now! It's fine even if you don't have that much money. Isn't there a fruit there ripe for you picking?!" novëxo Joel laughed.
"What fruit?" Yonas asked in confusion.
"Elegante is a ripe fruit! You can go look for Leon to ask for some of Elegante's shares. The best would be if you have more shares than Roanne! Then, you won't just have your business foundations, you'll be able to push Yuri back as well! Isn't that just perfect?!" Joel urged.
"Impossible! Leon is not an idiot. Why would he give me his shares for no reason?!’ Yonas shook his head and said.
"That's not necessarily the case! novelxo The Thompsons have helped Leon so much, and Leon owes all of you a lot! Leon only managed to reach his current heights thanks to the protection and help of the Thompsons! If you ask for some shares from him, he will do it! If it's not possible, just spend awesome money to buy some shares for him. It would not be a problem! As long as he has a heart, there's no way he would refuse your request!" Joel said slyly.
He knew very well that Cynthion Group and Elegante were Leon's lifeblood. There was no way Leon would hand over the shares for no reason!
He deliberately stirred Yonas up to ask Leon for the shares because he wanted to cause conflict between them!
The moment Leon and Yonas had a conflict because of that, the two of them would start fighting!
The Thompsons' first line would be caught in the middle. Either they helped Yonas against Leon or they would have a conflict with the second line!
Then, novelxo he would not only be able to cause a rift in the Thompsons, but also shatter Leon's relationship with them!
It was the perfect plan!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2242
That's a good idea!" Yonas was very interested after what Joel said!
He finally understood what Joel meant. Joel wanted him to seize some of Leon's shares from Elegante!
As for whether or not Leon would agree, it was not up to Leon!
His thoughts were more or less the same as Joel's. He felt that Leon owed the Thompsons, and Leon relied on the Thompsons to get to where he was!
If Leon wanted to continue within the southern region or use the Thompsons to stand up against the Southern Boss, then Leon had to give him some of the shares!
Of course, if Leon did not know what was good for him, he would have Leon understand that Leon was nothing without the protection of the Thompsons!
The Southern Boss would make short work of him! novelxo
"Mister Thompsons, I'll stop here. That's as much as I can help you with! What happens next is all up to you!"
Joel laughed when he saw that Yonas fell for it. He felt incredibly happy!
"Yes, Mister Hiltons. Your words have opened up my eyes! I don't know how to thank you!" Yonas said thankfully, not realizing that he fell for Joel's trap at all!
"You're too kind! We're both friends here. I should be helping you," Joel said with a smile.
"Yes, you're right. We're both friends!" Yonas nodded. He started to see Joel as a fellow companion, and even felt sad that it took them so long to become friends!
"Mister Thompson, I think Fifi isn't good with alcohol. She looked a bit drunk! Why don't you get a room at a hotel for her so she can rest?" Joel changed the topics.
As he said that he pointed at Fiona, who looked incredibly red and dazed, shooting a look that every man knew at Yonas!
"Alright! Mister Hiltons, I'll be leaving now then!" Yonas was very happy.
He thought about how he would get closer to Fiona the whole time!
Yet, things lined up perfectly. Fiona was drunk so fast!
Even more amazing was that Joel created a chance for him, asking him to send Fiona to a hotel!
As long as he seized the chance, he would be able to get Fiona in his hands!
He was incredibly happy at that moment. He was even happier with Jjoel as a friend and dropped his guard in front of Joel immediately.
After that, he helped the drunken Fiona up and left the place!
What he did not notice was the fact that, as he was leaving,
Fiona opened her eyes and shared a look with Joel!
Her eyes looked incredibly clear. She was not drunk at all!
The next morning, Iris, Cynthia, and the others headed to the office bright and early as usual.
As for Leon, he drove Chandler, who was not very mobile, over to the Scammells.
Since Chandler's leg injury was there for a long time, the injury was quite serious!
He tried to do some initial treatments forthem, but it was still not enough!
If he wanted to completely cure Chandler, he would need a Panax that was around two to three hundred years old, alongside several valuable supporting ingredients, to completely cure the injuries in his leg!
He brought Chandler over to the Scammels to try to find the ingredients he needed before he tried to cure Chandler again!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2243
With Elegante, at the president's office, Iris was at her desk, dealing with work matters.
At that moment, she suddenly heard some knocking at the door.
Right after that. Iris invited the person in, and Mason opened the door.
"Miss Young, I just got some news from the guards. The second son of the Thompsons, Yonas Thompson, is here for a visit. He says he has an important matter he needs to see Mister Wolf for," Mason said respectfully.
Since Leon was not at the company that day, Mason was ford to report the matter to Iris.
"Yonas Thompson? Why is he here?"novelxo
Iris was shocked to hear that.
Even though Leon was close to the Thompsons, the second line of descendants rarely interacted with Leon.
Yet, Yonas suddenly appeared without any invitation!
It surprised her quite a bit!
"I don't know. He didn't say."
Mason answered honestly.
"Yes, I understand! Have the guards invite him in for now! I'll give Leon a call and have him come over," Iris said after some thought.
She did not know what important matter Yonas needed Leon for, but he was still August!
On top of that, the first line of descendants was quite close to Leon. Even if it was for the sake of Angus and Roanne's family, there was no way she could refuse Yonas!
"Yes," Mason answered. After that, he prepared to leave, but he suddenly heard some footsteps.
"There's no need! Miss Young, I'm already here!" Yonas laughed arrogantly.
Right after that, he walked right inside with a slim, beautiful woman in his arm and two of his men.
The woman in his arms was Fiona!
The night before, he took advantage of Fiona's drunkenness and successfully bedded her. Their relationship took a step forward!
From that moment on, Fiona was his new girlfriend!
On top of that, there were two men behind Yonas' men.
The two men were Leon's subordinates. They were Austin and Leo, who were in charge of security.
'Miss Young, Mister Thompson insisted on coming in. We couldn't stop him," The two of them reported.
When Yonas visited earlier, the two of them asked Yonas to wait in the guest room due to company protocol.
However, Yonas insisted on barging in.
The two of them knew that Leon and the Thompsons were quite close, so they did not stop him and followed behind him.
"It's fine! The two of you can leave with Mason for now! Just leave this to me!" Iris said.
Since Yonas was already there, there was no way she could chase him away!
Right after that, she walked forward politely.
As for Mason and the others, they quickly made their leave.
"Mister Thompson, please have a seat!" Iris said, motioning to the sofa for Yonas as they took a seat.
Yonas did not hold back as he fell right into the sofa with Fiona as if this was his own place!
The two men he brought with him stood behind him, looking incredibly intimidating!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2244
"Miss Young, you're just too pretty! I wonder how Leon got so lucky to gain your affection!" Yonas' eyes lit up as he looked at Iris.
He saw Leona and Iris during the sales drive a few days ago, and he already saw that Iris was an amazing beauty!
Looking at her up close, Iris looked even more beautiful. She had a proud and noble air about her as well, looking like an angel amongst mortals!
Suddenly, he could not help but praise Iris in his heart.
"Yonas, are you saying she's prettier than me?" feeling Yonas ' eyes staring right at Iris, Fiona acted like she was jealous.
She grabbed Yonas' arm and pinched him cutely!
"Ahem."
"Baby, you're very beautiful too," Yonas coughed, regaining his composure as he felt a shot of love at Fiona!
Even though Fiona was not as beautiful as Iris, Fiona had a unique aura and allure about her. It was like she was born to attract men!
Her cute voice in particular gave him intense feelings. It caused his whole body to shiver!
It was precisely because of that, that he did not abandon Fiona after that whole night. Instead, he wanted even morenovelxo
of her!
So, he confessed to Fiona right after that, and the two of them became boyfriend and girlfriend!
"Mister Thompson, did you come here for something?" Iris was in no mood to look at the two of them flirting, so she hurriedly went straight to the main point.
"I came here for Leon! Call him out. I want to chat to him face to face!" Yonas ordered.
"Leon is busy today, he's not at the company. Maybe you should go back and come another day," Iris said with a frown.
She thought that Yonas had something important he needed to talk to Leon about. So she wanted to give Leon a call and have Leon come over.
However, Yonas was acting incredibly arrogantly, and there was a tone of disrespect towards Leon. It left a very bad impression!
So, she could not be bothered with Yonas, and wanted to chase Yonas away with the excuse that Leon Was not there!
"Leon's not around? Then give him a call right now. Have him come over here to see me right now!" Yonas ordered.
"Mister Thompson, I already said it very clearly. Leon's busy at the moment. How about this? If you have something urgent, let me know for now. I'll tell him when I can," Iris was more and more unhappy with Yonas.
However, Yonas was still a Thompson in the end. She could not be too rude to him!
"Alright! Then help me tell Leon that I want thirty percent of Elegante's shares!" Yonas said coldly.
"What? W-what are you saying?!" Iris was shocked to hear that. She immediately stood up.
It was obvious that she never expected that to be Yonas’ reason to be there!
It caught her completely off guard!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2245
"I'm not joking! This is three hundred thousand in cash. It's to purchase those shares! Accept it in Leon's stead for now! " Yonas said, tossing the cash he prepared on the table in front of Iris.
He knew very well that Leon was very close to Angus' family!
If he forced Leon to just give him those shares, it would be a bit inappropriate!
So, he deliberately took out 300 thousand, wanting to use that money to 'purchase' those shares!
If Leon knew what was good for him, Leon would not refuse Yonas!
"Mister Thompson, you're trying to buy thirty percent of our shares with three hundred thousand? Isn't that just robbery?! " Iris' expression darkened when she looked at the money!
After all the company's developments in recent times, Elegante already managed to break into the southern region's markets thanks to its effectiveness and reputation, seizing a portion of the market!
At that moment, Elegante's total worth was already in the billions, thirty percent of their shares were worth hundreds of millions!
Yet, Yonas was trying to buy those shares with two million!
It was no different from robbery!novelxo
"So what if I am?! Miss Young, you should know very well that Leon's just a country bumpkin from Springfield City! It's all thanks to the Thompsons that he managed all his accomplishments after founding Cynthion Group and Elegante Group! Cyntion Group in particular is already targeted by the Southern Boss. The only reason he can stand up to the Southern Boss is thanks to the protection of the Thompsons!"
Saying that Yonas suddenly stopped.
"I'll give him three days. He better get it done by then and has thirty percent of the shares transferred to my name!
Then, the Thompsons will continue protecting him against the Southern Boss! Otherwise, you'll suffer the consequences!" Yonas sneered with a threatening tone.
"You."
Iris was furious after she heard all of that.
Even though the Thompsons helped Leon a lot in recent times, most of it was still thanks to Angus' family. It had nothing to do with Yonas!
Other than that, Leon also helped Angus's family a lot, and even saved Roanne twice!
The two sides were mutual friends!
Yet, Yonas was taking all the glory for himself, and was even trying to seize Elegante's shares with that!
It was just too shameless!
It was obvious how angry he was at that moment!
"Impossible!" A furious voice was suddenly heard at that moment.
Right after that, Roanne walked right in with John by her side.
"Roanne, it's you!" Yonas frowned when he saw Roanne there.
He heard from Joel that Roanne was a shareholder in Elegante. So he was not surprised that she was there!
However, he was trying to use blackmail to get Elegante's shares at that moment!
Roanne suddenly appearing threw some trouble into his plans!
That caused him to feel a bit awkward and taken aback!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2246
"Iris, I heard Yonas say he wanted Elegante's shares. What's happening?" Roanne asked as she walked to Iris.
Yonas barging into the company caused quite a bit of a scene. It stirred quite a few people within the company, including her.
After she found out about it, she immediately hurried over to look into the situation.
Right after that, she happened to hear Yonas demanding Elegante's shares from Iris outside the office but did not hear the details.
"It's like this."
Iris explained how Yonas wanted to use 300 thousand to purchase thirty percent of Elegante's shares to Roanne.
"What? Yonas, thirty percent of Elegante's shares are worth at least over four hundred million! Are you crazy trying to purchase it with three hundred thousand?!" Roanne was shocked to hearthat!
"I'm not crazy! Roanne, this is between me and Leon. It has nothing to do with you! In the end, Leon can make the choice himself. You shouldn't be interfering with it!" Yonas said calmly, trying to push Roanne aside.
He knew that Leonw was a smart person. If Leon still wanted the protection of the Thompsons, then he believed
that Leonw would agree to give him those shares!
However, Roanne could not interfere with that!
If the matter got too big and Angus and Arthur were alerted, then it would be a huge problem!
It would do him no good!novelxo
"Who said it has nothing to do with me?! I'm one of Elegante’s shareholders. You're using despicable methods to try to gain Elegante's shares! How could I just let you do that?!" Roanne said unhappily.
Even though she was naive, she was still no idiot!
She could tell that Yonas was trying to push Leon down using the name of the Thompsons, forcibly taking a portion of Elgente's shares!
So, she did not hold back against Yonas. She berated Yonas on the spot, hoping that Yonas would know when to back off!
"You."
Yonas' expression darkened at being berated like that. He felt like he was being embarrassed!
However, what Roanne was saying was the truth. He could not say anything back!
At that moment, Fiona immediately stepped forward when she saw that Yonas was at a disadvantage.
"Miss Thompson, right? Please let me say something! No matter what Yonas wants to do, he's still your relative! It's one thing for you to not help, but why are you siding with an outsider against him?! Isn't that inappropriate?!" Fiona took the chance to say.
She was stationed by Yonas under Rodney's orders.
Rodney's task for her was to drive a wedge between Yonas and the first line of the Thompsons, splitting the family apart!
With Yonas and Roanne arguing at that moment, it was the perfect chance for her!
There was no way she would let it slip!
"Yes, what Fifi says is right! Roanne, I'm your cousin. How could you side against me?!"
Yonas realized something after what Fiona said.
He naturally felt a bit guilty since he was using underhanded means to seize the shares from Elegante. He was worried that the matter would reach Angus and Arthur if it got bigger!
However, with Fiona's words, he suddenly felt more confident!
With Elegante’s potential for growth, if he could get the company's shares, the Thompsons would grow a lot economically!
It would only be good for the future of the family!
In the end, he was doing this for his gain, but it was to the benefit of the family as well!
Roanne was instead helping an outsider like Leon against him. It would just cause the Thompsons to lose out on easy profits!
Suddenly, he felt even more unhappy with Roanne!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2247
"That's a load of nonsense! Yonas, you're doing something shameless and despicable right now. Of course, I would need to stop you! You're my relative, there's no way I'd just look on as you continue to make a mistake," Roanne retorted.
"I'm shameless and despicable? How dare you say that?!"
There was no way Yonas would stand Roanne's honest blame like that. He could not help but be angered!
Furthermore, Fiona gave him the perfect excuse with her words earlier. He felt like everything he did was for the sake of the Thompsons!
There was no way he would accept Roanne's blame. He did not think he was wrong at all!
"Roanne, you should know very well. Leon managed to get to where he is all thanks to the help and protection of our family! Our family has even agreed to let you live with him to help him restrict the Southern Boss, ignoring your reputation and the family name! We've given him so much. Isn't it obvious he should give us some of Elegante's shares as repayment?!' Yonas said firmly.
"You-"
You're just blackmailing him at this point! On top of that, I'm staying with Leon out of my own will! Why would he need to give you thirty percent of Elegante's shares?!" Roanne said
angrily.
"Willingly? Miss Thompson, Leon's not a single man. As the eldest daughter of the Thompsons, you're even willing to put your name on the line! Do you have feelings for him?" Fiona said, deliberately fanning the flames.
It was easy for an outsider to see!
Even though she did not know if Roanne liked Leon, with how Roanne was protecting Leon so much, her intuition told her that Roanne had some feelings for Leon! novelxo
It was perfect for her to use that to drive a rift between Leon and the Thompsons!
"That's right! Roanne, could you have feelings for Leon?" Yonas was stunned. He looked thoughtful.
The night before, Angus asked Roanne to come back to the family to clear the rumors and protect the family's reputation. However, Roanne constantly refused it!
That was something he knew!
He thought that Roanne was considering the bigger picture by trying to stay by Leon's side, so he did not think too much about it!
Yet, after what Fiona said, he suddenly realized something. Roanne did all of that possible because she had feelings for Leon!
Otherwise, there was no way Roanne would ignore her reputation like that, insisting on staying with Leon!
"I-" Roanne widened her mouth, unable to say anything.
The truth was exactly like that Fiona and Yonas thought. After being with Leon for a while, she slowly developed feelings for him!
Back then, one of the reasons she wanted to move in with Leon and the others was definitely so she could regularly see Leon!
With Fiona and Yonas exposing her thoughts, she was caught offguard!
Suddenly, she was stunned, not knowing what to answer!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2248
"So you do like Leon!" Yonas was shocked when he saw that Roanne was stammering and unable to come out with an answer. It confirmed his suspicions!
"1-1 don't. It's not like you think."
Roanne hurriedly tried to deny it, and her face started to redden. She felt like she was caught in an incredibly difficult position.
"Could it be true?"
Iris' expression sank at that. She could not help but feel a bit complicated.
It was not just Yonas who managed to guess it, even Iris started to realize that Roanne probably had feelings for Leon!
However, she thought about it. Leon was a morally upright person and was excellent in many ways. It was easy for girls to fall for him!
It was quite normal that Roanne fell for Leon!
Furthermore, it was not just Roanne who liked Leon. Even Cynthia, Snow, and Ruth were a bit too close to Leon!
Cynthia in particular even had her permission!
Despite that, Leon still did not completely accept Cynthia!
With Leon's character, there was no need for him to worry about it! novelxo
In the end, it was the right of the others to like Leon. There was no way she would be able to stop anyone from liking Leon!
As long as Leon did not cross the line, it was enough for her!
With that in mind, she felt that her mind was much clearer!
"Miss Thompson, Leon's not a single man! You like him, and you even moved over to stay with him and are trying to ruin his relationship! Isn't that a bit immoral!" Fiona continued to say.
"Fiona's right! You're a girl, and you're already doing something so immoral. How dare you call me shameless and despicable? It's such a joke!" Yonas mocked.
"I-"
Roanne's eyes started to redden as Yonas and Fiona continued to mock her. She was on the brink of crying, but there was nothing she could say.
"Iris, it's not like that. I've never thought about breaking you and Leon apart. Please believe me," Roanne hurriedly said to Iris.
She knew that Iris was Leon's girlfriend. Even though she started to like Iris, she only wanted to move over so she could regularly see Leon!
That was already enough for her!
From the start, she never had thoughts of fighting over Leon with Iris. She would never be a third party in a relationship either!
She was very worried that Iris would believe in Fiona and Yonas' words and misunderstand her!
Then, she would never have the face to see Iris and Leon again!
"It's fine! I believe you. I can understand your feelings," Iris said with a smile.
Feelings could not be controlled. Leon saved Roanne so much before. It was quite normal for Roanne to have some feelings for Leon, or even admire him!
Other than that, with their interactions in recent times, Iris could tell that Roanne's thoughts were pure and kind. She was not someone who would plot things like that!
With how Roanne was, there was no way Roanne would do anything immoral!
Naturally, she did not need to blame or be angry at Roann!
"That's great! Iris, thank you for trusting me," Roanne smiled, calming down a lot.
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2249
"Roanne, that woman with Mister Thompson is a bit problematic. She keeps on pushing him and is trying to damage our relationship. You need to be careful," Iris changed the topic and she said softly.
As the president of Elegante, she saw quite a few schemes in the business world before. She was much more experienced and sharp than Roanne!
She could vaguely tell that Fiona seemed to be fanning the flames the whole time!
So, she was immediately on guard, and made sure to tell Roanne!
"What? So that's it!" novelxo
Roanne was shocked to hear that.
Even though she was more naive at heart, she was also a smart person!
After Iris' reminder, she finally understood that Fiona had bad intentions!
"Yonas, who's that girl by your side?" Roanne asked Yonas. After that, she immediately looked at Fiona with an unfriendly look in her eyes.
"She's Fiona, my new girlfriend," Yonas did not bother to hide his relationship with Fiona!
"Yonas, there's something wrong with your girlfriend! She keeps on trying to damage our relationship. You mustn't trust her words," Roanne said straightforwardly.
"Nonsense! Roanne, Fifi is my girlfriend. She could very well be your family in the future! How could you just insult and slander her like that? You're crossing the line!" Yonas said unhappily.
The last night, he defeated Rodney and saved Fiona from Rodney!
He was already sure that Fiona was just a weak girl who was bullied by Rodney. There's no way she was a bad person!
Furthermore, after what happened the night before, he was abnormally obsessed with Fiona. He was captivated by her!
No matter what Roanne said, there was no way he would believe her!
"Miss Thompson, it's wrong for you to interfere with someone's relationship! I was just trying to give you some advice so you would not make that mistake anymore! It's one thing for you to not listen to me, but why are you insulting me as well?" Fiona deliberately put a sad look on her face when she saw that Iris and Roanne already saw through what she was doing. She looked like she was the victim of all this!
"What nonsense!"
Roanne was furious at Fiona!
"I'm not speaking nonsense. This is all the truth! The
Thompsons are a famous family in the southern region. Your name has always been admired by everyone! As the daughter of the family, you're out doing nasty things with a wild man outside! Isn't that just going to ruin your family's name?" Fiona mocked.
"You-"
"Shut up!" Roanne was furious.
With her noble status, she was spoiled since she was young. There was no way she could accept Fiona's insults!
Not only that, Fiona even said Leon was a wild man!
It thoroughly angered her!
Right after that, she did not even think about it as she slapped Fiona right in the face!
The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 2250
Smack!
Fiona was caught off guard by the slap.
Luckily, Roanne was a kindhearted girl. She did not add that much force to the slap!
Even so, Fiona was still sent to the ground by the slap. There was a fiery pain on her face!
"H-how dare you to hit me!?" Fiona clutched her face painfully, stunned by the slap.
After that, her eyes reddened as she rushed into Yonas's arms.
"Yonas, look at that! I was just giving Miss Thompson some advice, but she did this to me! You have to stand up for me," Fiona cried as she said.novelxo
"Roanne, you are crossing the line!" Yonas was furious.
Fiona was his woman, and Roanne slapped her in the face right in front of him. It was the equivalent of slapping him in the face!
It was obvious how furious he was!
Right after that, he did not even think about it as he slapped Roanne right in the face!
"Sir, you can’t!" John was shocked at the sight.
After that, he stepped forward and stood in front of Roanne immediately. He blocked the slap from Yonas with his true energy.
Bang!
Yonas was only at the intermediate Emperor State. He was far from John’s Almighty State!
He was caught off guard and had to take a few steps back thanks to John's true energy. His feet almost stumbled and he almost fell!
Thankfully, Fiona was fast enough to help him.
"John, h-how dare you to attack me! Are you trying to rebel?! " Yonas was furious after he regained his footing. He looked at John furiously!
"I wouldn't dare. I was just in a panic and accidentally attacked. Please forgive me," John said respectfully.
Even though he was older than Yonas, he was not a direct descendant of the Thompsons. His position was far lower than Yonas's in the family.
He did not dare to do too much in front of Yonas.
"As if you would dare! I'm warning you, make way right now. I'm going to teach Roanne a lesson! I'll make sure she knows that my woman isn't to be bullied!" Yonas said angrily.
"Sir, please forgive me, but I'm here to protect her. I can't let you hurt her. On top of that, if you attack her for an insignificant girl, the family head will punish you when he
finds out," John said.
"That-" Yonas was at a loss for words.
Even though Fiona was his girlfriend, they were not married. Fiona was still not a part of the family!
If he did anything to hurt Roanne because of Fiona, whether it was Angus and Yuri or his grandfather, none of them would forgive him easily!
It would do him no good!
However, there was no way he could accept just standing back!
"Yonas, are you going to just let me get slapped like that?"
At that moment, Fiona could see Yonas's hesitation. She looked at Yonas with a wronged expression, acting as pitifully as she could.
