Ch. 2611..2620

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2611-"Yeah, you are right. Strength is important. Cynthion Group may not have the support of powerful families, but the chairman, Leon Wolf, is quite terrifying.

That's what makes Cynthion Group powerful!" Caleb said warily when he mentioned Leon.

"Terrifying? What's there to be fear from a young brat? Dad, are you messing with US?" Jayden pouted with a contemptuous look.

He already learned from Hugo that Leon was young and considering his age, he could not possibly be that formidable.

Hence, he could not figure out why Caleb would describe Leon as terrifying.

"Yeah!" "Caleb, he’s just a kid."

The elders agreed along and no one took a youngster like Leon seriously.

"You have all underestimated Leon! The third elder just informed me that Leon is formidable despite his age. Some time ago, the Southern Boss worked with the Hiltons and the Demon Lord to go against Leon. In the end, Leon killed the Demon Lord, and the Sotuehm Boss was severely injured as well. It was Hades who showed up and escaped with the Southern Boss."

Caleb's eyes widened and he suppressed his inner panic, before explaining what happened when Leon killed the Demon Lord and injured the Southern Boss.

What he said immediately caused a stir.

"What?" "How is that possible?"

Jayden and the elders snapped out of it and could not believe what they were hearing.

They all knew about the Southern Boss and the Demon Lord.

As the ruler of the underground community in the southern region, the Southern the two most powerful martial artists in the region.

The Demon Lord ranked third on the criminal list and though he was also in the Peak Almighty State.

Even Arthur and Caleb would fall short when compared to the Demon Lord.

It was hardly an exaggeration to say that the Southern Boss and the Demon Lord were the most formidable martial artists in both the Western and southern regions.

No one should be able to rival them when they work together, yet Leon managed to kill the Demon Lord and injure the Southern Boss on his own.

It even took having Hades get involved for the Southern Boss to narrowly escape Leon.

This was so unbelievable that they were all shaken.

Naturally, Hugo and Renee felt the same as well.

Hugo, who sawLeon before, knew that Hugh was actually Leon.

Leon was young when he first met him and Hugo did not know much about him.

All he could tell was that Leon had confidence about him which likely meant he was a brilliant martial artist. Still, he was likely weaker than most secondgeneration or older-generation martial artists.

To his bewilderment, Leon's power exceeded his imagination. Even the Demon Lord and the Southern Boss lost to him.

If he did not hear this from Caleb, he would never have believed it to be true.

Renee, on the other hand, was just as taken aback.

When he heard from Hugo that Leon created the Cynthion Group and that he was extremely talented, she was curious about Leon.

However, she simply assumed Leon was someone like Hugo, which meant that he was one of the brightest of his generation.

To her surprise, Leon was much more than that and he even managed to defeat the Demon Lord and the Southern Boss.

This meant that Leon was far stronger than Hugo and she could not quite decide how she felt about it.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2612=-Wait, that's not right! I heard that the Southern Boss and the Spears were destroyed by the Thompsons! What does that have to do with Leon?" Jayden questioned.

The Spears were one of the most powerful forces in the southern region and the Southern Boss was the ruler of the underground community.

Ever since the Spears' downfall, the Southern Boss fled with severe injury and this caused quite a stir in the southern region.

However, since the Thompsons were involved and Leon preferred to keep a low profile, most people thought that the Thompsons were responsible.

The southern region was connected to the western region, so some of the more alert families in the western region already learned about the incident.

The Morrisons were no exception. Jayden caught rumors that the Southern Boss was missing and the Spears were destroyed a few days ago, but it was rumored to be the work of the Thompsons.

However, Caleb now claimed it was Leon who injured the Southern Boss.

This contradicted the rumors and Jayden was baffled.

"Yeah! Caleb, people are saying that the Thompsons did that. How is that related to Leon and Cynthion Group?" "Are you mistaken?"

Realization dawned on the elders.

They all heard that the Thompsons brought about the downfall of the Spears.

The Thompsons were the most powerful family and they were always at odds with the Southern Boss.

The Thompsons were just as influential and powerful as the Spears. Hence, it seemed believable that the Thompsons destroyed the Spears.

However, Leon was just a young boy with no powerful family to back him up.

Hence, they could not bring themselves to believe that he had what it took to defeat the Southern Boss.

They all just dismissed it as a misunderstanding as that was the only reasonable explanation.

"I'm not mistaken. I've heard that the Thompsons destroyed the Spears as well.

At first, I thought it was the work of the Thompsons as well. But when the third elder called me earlier, he emphasized that that was just speculation. The truth was that Leon defeated the Southern Boss and the Spears," Caleb said.

"But, could the third elder be mistaken, then?" Jayden asked, unable to believe that a young boy had what it took to defeat the Southern Boss and the Spears.

"Yeah!" "Maybe he just got the wrong information!"

The elders agreed along.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2613-"No. The third elder used to be friends with one of the elders in the Thompsons.

He learned the truth from that elder," Caleb said sternly.

When the third elder reported his findings, Caleb reacted the same way and initially thought the third elder had the wrong information as well.

However, when it was revealed that this information was from one of the elders amongst the Thompsons, all doubts within Caleb vanished.

Since this elder was close with the third elder, there was no reason for him to lie.

On top of that, if the Thompsons were the ones who caused the Spears' downfall, they could not possibly let a young man take all the credit.

It would be foolish for them to allow others to take credit for their work, and therefore, Caleb believed what the elder said without a doubt.

"But," Jayden and the other elders were stunned.

They all knew that there may not be much truth to rumors and since the third elder got his information from an elder from the Thompsons, it was likely the truth.

This meant that it was Leon who defeated the Southern Boss and the Spears.

Shocked, they all started wondering how a young man like Leon accomplished such a thing.

"Also, according to what the third elder said, the Southern Boss worked with the Hiltons and the Demon Lord to take Leon down! Such a powerful combination isn't something that the Thompsons could handle! They don't have what it takes to kill the Demon Lord or defeat the Southern Boss," Caleb added.

He knew that despite being the most powerful family in the southern region, the Hiltons and Spears were both powerful families as well that were just slightly weaker than the Thompsons.

If the two families worked together, they could easily destroy the Thompsons.

On top of that, they even had the Demon Lord on their side.

The Demon Lord was close to reaching the Peak Almighty State and even Caleb himself would not stand a chance against him, not to mention killing him and injuring the Sotuehm Boss at the same time.

Leon had to be extremely powerful or the Southern Boss would have never worked with the Hiltons and the Demon Lord to take him down.

This action alone was proof of how powerful Leon was and he was the only one who could injure the Sotuehrn Boss and lead the Thompsons to victory.

"Looks like it's the work of Leon Wolf." "Who exactly is this kid? He is too formidable!” The arrogant looks in the elders' faces disappeared and they became more certain that Leon was the person who killed the Demon Lord and defeated the Spears.

All doubts were resolved and they finally realized they underestimated Cynthion Group and Leon.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2614-"Yeah! Leon may be young, but he is insanely strong. I've never heard of such talent." Caleb nodded, his expression growing warier by the moment.

He did not know which level Leon was in, but for him to kill the Demon Lord and injure the Southern Boss, he would have to be in the Peak Almighty State or above.

Considering his age, his talent was unmatched and unheard of.

Throughout the entire Sky County, even martial artists in the older generation would struggle to compare to Leon.

Caleb himself was one of the most powerful martial artists in the Western region Yet, he knew that he could only break even with the Demon Lord at best, so if Leon could take the Demon Lord down, he had to be much stronger than Caelb.

This alarmed Caleb and he was instantly overwhelmed by pressure. Terrified of Leon, he dared not to look down on Cynthion Group.

"Dad, what do we do now? If Leon is that formidable, we will need to reevaluate Cynthion Group and that vice president. We can't afford to offend them again,"

Josiah said.

Like the others, he looked down on Leon and Cynthion Group before this as well. Hence, he did not object to Jayden with Hugo to meet with Hugh.

However, he instantly realized the issue after learning Leon's true strength.

He did not know that Hugh was Leon, but he knew that Hugh came representing Cynthion Group to negotiate terms with the Morrisons. If they continued to undermine Hugh, they would be disrespecting Leon indirectly.

If this enraged Leon, it would not benefit the Morrisons.

"I know! I will go with Hugo to meet with Mister Wolf. We have to take this seriously!" Caleb said.

By the law of the iunqle, Leon was far too powerful and Caleb dared not to look down on Cynthion Group any longer.

Hence, he decided to go to the hotel himself and that was why he stopped Hugo and Jayden to begin with.

"Hm, alright!" Hugo said before finally realizing what was happening.

The fact that Caleb was changing his mind worked perfectly in his favor and this was precisely what he wanted.

What Leon did to the Demon Lord and the Southern Boss was far too shocking and Hugo struggled to process the information even up until this moment. It was unbelievable that someone of Leon's age could achieve such greatness.

However, he knew that Hugh was Leon and intended to ask Leon if what he heard was true when he had the chance.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2615-"Dad, I want to go with you to the hotel to meet with Mister Wolf!" Jayden said.

After learning about Leon's strength, he dared not to stop Caleb from going to meet Leon.

However, Leon was just a young man and he remained doubtful if someone of his age could actually be in the Peak Almighty state or above.

Hence, he decided to go with the others to see if he could ask Hugh about Leon to find out if what they knew was true.

"Grandfather, me too! I want to come along as well," Renee said, her eyes bright.

She was already curious about Leon, to begin with, upon learning that Leon was likely a martial artist in the Peak Almighty State, she realized his ability surpassed her imagination.

Such insane talent shook her to the core and her curiosity toward Leon reached an all-time high. She desperately wanted to meet Leon, but she could not go all the way to the southern region to meet with him.

Therefore, she could only go to Hugh to ask him about Leon.

"Nonsense! Renee, your brother, and your grandfather are going to discuss business matters with Mister Wolf. Why are you tagging along?" Before Caleb could say anything, Josiah was the first to reprimand her.

"Dad, I'm not messing around. I was the one who helped Mister Wolf check into his hotel and accompanied him to Jaxon's bouquet. We got along well. If I go with Grandfather, I can help ease the atmosphere and maybe we will be able to reach an agreement sooner." Renee pouted.

"Well," Josiah was instantly rendered speechless.

"That's right! Renee, you can tag along if you want to!” Caleb said thoughtfully.

He knew that Renee's words made sense.

Overlord State during the bouquet, and Renee proved it by showing her true energy to everyone.

If Leon was willing to offer such precious pills to help Renee, it meant that Leon had a rather good impression on her.

If Renee came with them, it may perhaps facilitate the negotiation.

As for Jayden, Caleb saw no reason to stop him from following since Renee was coming along as well. Hence, he allowed Jayden to follow as well.

With that, the four of them left and drove toward the hotel.

In a certain five-star hotel, Caleb and the others arrived and Renee led them up to the floor where Leon's room was. However, as soon as they reached, they were shocked by the sight before them.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2616-At the moment, around thirty people were gathering outside Leon's room and they were all from powerful families.

During Jaxon 's bouquet, everyone witnessed the true power of the alchemical pills, and the direct descendants of some influential families all realized that Cynthion Group had great market value and potential.

Hence, they hurriedly brought the elders or powerful figures of their families here, hoping to meet with Leon to discuss the terms of a potential partnership.

Jensen, too, brought his grandfather along.

Leon clearly stated that Cynthion Group would prioritize working with the Morrisons, but there was no such thing as first come first serve in the business world.

Jensen and the others refused to give up on such a great opportunity and let the Morrisons partner with Cynthion Group.

Hence, they all arrived earlier that morning with their seniors in the hope of convincing Leon to work with them instead of the Morrisons.

Unfortunately, Leon went outside early in the morning to meet with Jaxon for the Rainbow Flower, so these people arrived to find that Leon was not around.

In the end, they could only gather outside his room and wait for his return.

Stunned by the sight before them, they gasped. "What's going on?"

They exchanged surprised glances as they wondered why so many people were gathering outside Leon's room.

Each person was of high status and most of them were either elders or direct descendants of various families.

It was truly a sight to behold for so many important figures to gather outside Leon's room and anyone who saw this would be stunned.

The Morrisons were no exception.

"Grandfather, I think Jensen and the others are here to try and convince Hugh to work with them," Renee said thoughtfully.

There were a few direct descendants of powerful families before them, including Jensen, and she saw them all from the night before.

After taking a moment to think, she immediately realized that Jensen and the others were reluctant to let go of the chance to work with Cynthion Group.

Hence, they gathered here early in the morning to compete with the Morrisons.

However, she did not know why they were gathering outside the room and not going inside.

"Damn it! How can this happen?" Caleb's expression darkened.

He thought that he could easily secure the deal by coming here in person and agreeing to Hugh's initial proposal.

To his bewilderment, the situation was far more complicated than he anticipated.

A few other families entered the race and it would be more challenging for the Morrisons to obtain the partnership with Cynthion Group.

Instantly, he felt a mixture of emotions.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2617-"So what Renee said was true! There are plenty of other families that want to work with Cynthion Group. Grandfather, what should we do now?" Hugo asked worriedly and felt just as pressured as Caleb was.

"Don't panic! We will cross that bridge when it comes to it! We are the most powerful family and we are better than these other families. It won't be that easy for these people to win against us!" Jayden scoffed.

"You are one to speak! You were the one messing things up yesterday, or we would have secured the deal by now!" Caleb reprimanded.

When Hugh arrived at the Morrisons' mansion, he came sincerely hoping to seal the deal. However, Jayden acted arrogantly and tirelessly and encouraged the others to fight for more profit, causing the negotiation to go sour.

However, since Jayden was the leader of the second generation in the Morrisons and had great talent, Caleb and the elders always valued him.

Caleb and the elders were also responsible for what happened, so Caleb did not blame Jayden before this.

Still, Jayden did not reflect on his mistakes and remained arrogant, which provoked Caleb.

He glared daggers at Jayden and his expression darkened.

"I-" Sensing his father's anger, Jayden quieted down.

"Grandfather, don't get upset. Hugh already said that he will prioritize US as partners. Since you are already here, I'm sure Cynthion Group will work with US and not anyone else so long as we are sincere," Renee consoled him.

After the night before, she could tell that Leon was an understanding person and since Leon agreed to prioritize the Morrisons as potential partners, she trusted that Leon would not go back on his words.

However, that would be possible only if the Morrisons displayed a sincere attitude and stopped acting rudely like they did the day before.

"Yeah, you're right! It's a good thing that I came or your uncle would have screwed everything up!" Caleb said.

When he initially planned to come to the hotel in person, Jayden stopped him.

Thankfully, he received the third elder's call in time and decided otherwise.

All the other influential families were fighting for the opportunity to work with Cynthion Group and everyone here was either heads or elders of the families.

If the Morrisons were represented by just Jayden and Hugo, it would look as though they were not keen at all, and they would not be able to rival the others.

With that thought in mind, Caleb felt glad and cast Jayden another glare again, silently blaming him for coming close to messing things up.

"Father, I didn't expect Cynthion Group to be so powerful. I didn't mean to,"

Jayden said sheepishly.

If he knew that would happen, he should have never asked to come along and would not have been reprimanded by Caleb.

He practically brought this upon himself.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2618-"Grandpa, we can't delay this any further! There are a lot of families competing with US right now. Let’s go and meet with Mister Wolf! We can't let others get ahead of us!" Hugo was worried about the partnership and immediately changed the subject.

"Yeah, let's go and meet with Mister Wolf!" Caleb nodded and strode toward the room along with the others.

"The Morrisons are here," The others were shocked and all focused on Caleb.

During the bouquet the night before, Leon mentioned that he would be prioritizing the Morrisons as potential partners.

They only came this morning to meet with Leon because they wanted to go around the Morrisons. To their surprise, Caleb came here in person before they had the chance to meet with Leon.

This caught them off guard.

"Miss Morrison, I didn't expect to meet you again so soon!" Jensen, who stood at the very front, greeted them kindly.

Though the Morrisons and the Dagleshs were both powerful families, their territories differed and they were not all that close.

However, after the event of the night before, Jensen fought alongside Renee against Felton to protect Leon.

This brought them closer so he took the initiative to greet Renee.

"Yeah! Mister Daglesh, I didn't expect to see you here." She paused and said, "Hugh has already said that Cynthion Group will prioritize US as partners. Don't you think it's a bit inappropriate for you all to come here and speak with Hugh in private?"

Renee was slightly displeased that the others wanted to compete with the Morrisons.

"Well," Jensen was rendered speechless.

After all, what Renee said was the truth.

Leon already informed everyone that he would prioritize the Morrisons as potential partners and it was rather unethical for the other families to go around the Morrisons and seek Leon's private audience.

Therefore, he could not quite argue with Renee's point.

"Miss Morrison, I'm afraid I don't agree with that. Mister Wolf only said that he would prioritize the Morrisons as potential partners. He never said he would work with you. So long as you haven't reached an agreement with him, we all have the right to compete against each other!" Elder Daglesh said calmly.

"Yeah, Elder Daglesh is right! whoever has what it takes will get the deal. It's a fair competition and the one who wins gets to work with Cynthion Group!"

The others agreed along.

"But," Renee was rendered speechless.

She knew that people were driven by their gain and it was normal for other families to compete for a chance to work with Cynthion Group.

Indeed, she had no right to stop them.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2619-"Elder Daglesh, since you are interested in working with Cynthion Group, let's compete fairly. I’m sure Mister Wolf will make the wise choice!" Caleb said.

Though he did not want to get into a competition with these powerful families, he could not stop others from pursuing their gains and could only accept the situation.

Since the Morrisons were the most powerful family in the Western region, they surpassed other families in terms of influence and power.

As the head of the Morrisons, he did not fear competition and challenge.

"Thankyou for understanding, Elder Morrison! Let the best win!" Elder Daglesh smiled.

Seeing as Caleb did not get upset, the others sighed breaths of relief.

Though they had enough power and did not fear the Morrisons, the Morrisons were not ones they wanted to cross if possible.

Since Caleb understood their positions, this was an ideal situation.

"Grandfather, let's focus on the important thing! Let's go and meet Mister Wolf to continue the negotiation!" Hugo changed the subject.

"Sure," Caleb said.

Suddenly, Jensen spoke up, "That won't be necessary, Elder Morrison. Mister Wolf isn't here so there's no point for you to go in," he reminded.

"Mister Wolf isn't here? Where did he go?" Caleb blurted out.

"We don't know. The hotel staff said he went out early in the morning and no one knew where he went," Jensen shook his head.

When he and the others arrived, they all asked the hotel staff about Leon.

They were told that Leon was not around and since they did not get Leon's number, none of them could reach him at the moment.

Hence, they could only wait for Leon to return.

"I see!" Caleb finally realized why everyone was waiting outside the door.

"Father, since Mister Wolf isn't in there, let's just go home!" Jayden said.

He regretted coming with Caleb to meet Hugh and upon learning that Hugh was not around, he instantly wanted to leave.

"What's the rush?" Caleb shot him a displeased look and ignored him, turning to Hugo. "Hugo, you should have Mister Wolf's number, right? Call him and ask him about it."

"Oh, okay," Hugo said and took out his phone to call Leon.

Once the call was answered, Hugo asked Leon about the situation, and after a brief conversation, they ended the call.

"Hugo, what did Mister Wolf say?" Caleb urged.

The others were all turning to Hugo, eager to know where Leon went and when he would be back.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2620-"Grandfather, Mister Wolf said he is dealing with something important and won't be back anytime soon. Concerning the deal between US and Cynthion Group, he asked US to go home and he will contact US once he is back," Hugo explained.

"That's strange. Mister Wolf came alone. He doesn't have any connection in the western region, so what important matter can he possibly be handling?" Caleb frowned in confusion.

Naturally, he did not know that Leon had run into an old friend from the Dragon Corps and wanted to go to the branch. Hence, he could not quite return to negotiate with the Morrisons.

"I don't know. He didn't say what it's about," Hugo shook his head.

"Father, it doesn't matter what he is doing, since he won't be back anytime soon, let's go home," Jayden said casually.

"But," Caleb hesitated. For a moment, he wanted to leave and wait for Leon to return.

However, when he noticed that the others were still waiting, he soon realized something was wrong.

"Elder Daglesh, Mister Wolf said he has something important to handle and can't get back for the time being. Why don't we all go home and continue with this once he gets back?" Caleb said to the others.

"Um, since we are already here, I don't mind waiting a while longer," Elder Daglesh said.

"Yeah!"

"Elder Morrison, you can go if you want. We'll wait here."

The others agreed along.

They all knew that Hugh wanted to prioritize the Morrisons as potential partners and the others did not have such special treatment.

If they left, they might not be able to stand a chance, so they could only wait to show how keen they were.

When Leon returned and saw that they were waiting all day, he might consider working with them and they would stand a fighting chance.

"Father, ignore them. If they want to wait here, let them be! Let's go!" Jayden said mockingly and glanced at the others in contempt.

Hugo already made it clear that Leon could not return any time soon, yet these people insisted on waiting here.

From Jayden’s perspective, they were being foolish and he could not possibly act the fool as well.

"You want to leave? Have you lost your mind?" Caleb's face flushed with rage.

Despite what Leon promised, the deal between Cynthion Group and the Morrisons was not sealed yet. If the Morrisons left and Leon returned to find others, he might just pick others to work with.

That would cause the Morrisons to completely lose the chance to work with Cynthion Group and Caleb was not about to do such a thing.

At first, the deal with Cynthion Group was almost theirs. However, with Jayden’s interference, Caleb and the other elders plotted to obtain more profit and caused such a dilemma in the end.

He did this to himself and since he already made one mistake, he was not going to repeat the same mistake.
