Ch. 2761..2770

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2761-"Felton, consider yourself lucky. I’ll let you off the hook out of respect for the Western Boss and the Formers. However, be warned that this is the last time. If you try anything again, you won't be as lucky!" Leon glared coldly at Felton.

After hearing what Renee and the others had to say, he decided to spare Felton again.

He could always settle the scores with the Western Boss and Felton after he took care of the Southern Boss.

"Why you!" Felton was furious.

He underestimated Leon and thought that Leon was lucky to be spared by him.

Yet, Leon turned the tables and acted like he was the one who spared Felton.

Felton was infuriated. However, since Leon decided to give up and he had the protection of the Dagleshs, Felton and the Apostles could not do much as they would only embarrass themselves if they continued to target Leon.

Gritting his teeth, Felton swallowed his pride. "Get off your high horse, Leon. I'll remember this. See you around!" He scoffed.

With a dark expression, he called the Apostles along and the three left.

"It's finally over!" Renee and the Dagleshs sighed a breath of relief as they watched the Ferners' retreating figures.

Elder Daglesh and Jensen did not know much about Leon and both thought that he was in the Initial Almighty State, which meant that he was no match for the Apostles.

They were worried that Leon would stubbornly insist on challenging Felton and end up suffering.

Thankfully, Leon regained his composure and gave up in the end, so they were all relieved.

"Elder Daglesh, Mister Daglesh, thank you!" Leon expressed his gratitude to the Dagleshs.

Though he was powerful enough to handle Felton and the Apostles and did not need the Dagleshs' help, he appreciated their kindness.

T" Leon considered it.

Just as he was about to accept the invitation, Renee intervened.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2762-"Elder Daglesh, I'm sorry, but Leon has to purchase some tools to produce alchemical pills this afternoon, so he may not have time to visit!" Renee chimed in.

She knew that Elder Daglesh was inviting Leon over to discuss business in private, hoping to obtain the partnership with Cynthion Group before the Morrisons.

Hugo was wise to leave Renee with Leon as she would serve the purpose of stopping this from happening.

There was no way that she would allow this, so she rejected Elder Daglesh's invitation before Leon could say anything.

Leon shot her a pointed look.

He was no fool and knew that Elder Daglesh was inviting him to obtain the partnership with Cynthion Group.

It was inappropriate for Renee to make the decision in his place and reject Elder Daglesh's invitation without his permission.

However, she treated him well and helped him on multiple occasions.

Since she already turned Elder Daglesh down, he remained silent to avoid embarrassing Renee.

"I see," Elder Daglesh was slightly disappointed.

Just then, Jensen chimed in and asked sincerely, "Mister Wolf, are you free tomorrow? If so, can you come by our house?"

Since Leon was not free that day, he could only compromise and invite Leon over the next day. It would still deliver the same effect.

"But," Seeing as Jensen refused to give up, Renee opened her mouth hesitantly.

She initially wanted to repeat the same trick and reject the Daglesh in Leon's place.

However, she could not cross the line.

She took the liberty to reject Elder Daglesh's invitation and if she continued to do so, she would be out of line.

Hence, she could only give up and simply stared at Leon with anticipation, hoping that he would reject Jensen.

"Well, sure!" Leon said thoughtfully.

Because of what Jayden did, Leon preferred to work with the Dagleshs for stability's sake.

Hence, he ignored Renee's stare and accepted the invitation.

"It's settled, then!" Elder Daglesh and Jensen perked up in excitement.

Since Leon agreed to go to the Dagleshs' mansion, it meant that he preferred the Dagleshs.

Instantly, the two were overwhelmed by excitement.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2763-"The Dagleshs are quite formidable,” Contrary to the Dagleshs' excitement, Renee's heart sank and she revealed a worried expression.

She knew that Leon had the intention to work with the Dagleshs since he agreed to their invitation.

This was hardly good news for the Morrisons.

However, it was up to Leon to decide who he wanted to work with and she could not help that he favored the Dagleshs.

Thankfully, she managed to postpone Leon's visit by a day and bought more time for the Morrisons.

It was up to Hugo to see if the Morrisons could beat the Dagleshs to obtain the partnership with Cynthion Group.

"Mister Wolf, if there's nothing else you need, we will leave for now!" Elder Daglesh and Jensen said farewell to Leon and left with the other two men.

Once they left, Renee started pouting.

"Miss Morrison, what's wrong? Are you upset because I agreed to go to the Dagleshs' mansion?" Sensing her frustration, Leon asked.

He thought back to how he ignored the pleading look in Renee's eyes and accepted Jensen's invitation, realizing that perhaps Renee was upset about this.

This seemed to be the only reasonable explanation.

"No! Business deals are what they are. Whether the Dagleshs and Morrisons obtain the chance to work with Cynthion Group is just a matter of ability. Why should I get upset over it?" Renee shook her head.

"No? Why are you upset then?" Leon did not expect to be wrong.

"What do you think? You have been the chairman of Cynthion Group all along, yet you used a fake name for the past few days in front of us! Was it fun to toy with US?" Renee asked with displeasure and shot him a conflicted glance.

She had a rather decent impression of Leon and came to treat him as a friend after spending time with him.

He was toying with her and she had all the reasons to get upset.

Upon learning that Hugh was Leon, she was quite surprised.

"So that's why you're upset!’ Realization dawned on Leon.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2764-"Miss Morrison, I'm sorry, but I have a reason to use a fake name. I didn't mean to toy with you or lie to you. Please forgive me," Leon smiled and apologized.

"Reason? What reason?" she asked in confusion.

"Well," Leon hesitated.

"Forget it if you don't want to tell me," Renee was rather disappointed as she could not tell if he was lying or had a reason to hide his identity.

"Well, I can tell you about it if you want to know. Part of my reason for coming here is to search and track the Southern Boss down," Leon explained thoughtfully.

He merely hid his identity to avoid alerting the Southern Boss. However, the circumstances changed.

He already found the Southern Boss and since Felton exposed him earlier, he could conclude that the Southern Boss knew he was in the western region.

Since everything was out in the open, it would not hurt for him to tell Renee the truth.

"I see!" Realization dawned on Renee.

She thought that Leon hid his identity to toy with the Morrisons and was displeased with him because of it.

Now that she knew he did so to deal with the Southern Boss, her anger was appeased and the displeasure she felt toward Leon faded.

"Leon, what will you do now? Felton already knows who you really are, and so do Gaston, Aurelia, and the others. It’ll be hard for you to keep your identity a secret from now on," Renee said thoughtfully.

"It's fine! Since my identity has been exposed, there's no point in hiding anymore!" Leon said casually.

Since the Southern Boss already knew that he was here, there was no reason for him to hide his identity.

On top of that, he already found the Southern Boss's whereabouts, and hiding his identity was no longer necessary.

Besides, he came to the western region to find the Southern Boss and to expand Cynthion Group's market.

By the time a branch was established and he hosted a sales drive, he would eventually have to present himself as Leon.

Therefore, he decided to abandon his identity as Hugh and begin to interact with others as Leon.

It was bound to happen sooner or later.

"Good!" Renee was relieved that this did not affect Leon.

Yet, Leon kept addressing her formally and she felt annoyed by it.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2765-"Oh, sure! Let’s go, Renee!" Leon said hesitantly.

After spending a few days with Renee, he realized that she was a good person apart from the fact that she was proud. Hence, he came to consider her as his friend as well.

Since Renee asked that he change the way he addressed her, he agreed readily.

With that, he and Renee left the area and went to buy the tools he needed.

Afterward, Renee considered the fact that this was Leon's first time in the western region, and she suggested taking him around to relax.

Leon was indeed quite tired from running around for the past few days. Since he did not have much to do in the afternoon, he accepted her proposal.

Renee took him to all the tourist sights and Leon began to relax.

In the evening, the two shared a luxurious dinner and parted ways.

Meanwhile, Leon returned to the hotel.

Since the jadeite plates and alchemy pot were all in place, his first thought was to make the Rainbow Fruit into alchemical pills to enhance his power.

However, the Rainbow Fruit was a heavenly herb and the supporting herbs in the recipe would be rather challenging to locate.

Using Supreme spiritual herbs along with other precious herbs alongside the Rainbow Fruit would enhance its effect to the fullest.

Apart from that, he could also use ordinary spiritual herbs or herbs that grew for over five hundred years, but the effect would not be as ideal.

During Jaxon's bouquet, Leon purchased three ordinary spiritual herbs and some herbs that grew from three hundred to five hundred years.

To save Jaxon's life, he used one of the ordinary spiritual herbs and had two left.

It should not be challenging for him to combine the two ordinary spiritual herbs with the Rainbow Fruit.

Naturally, Supreme spiritual herbs were just as rare as heavenly herbs.

Meanwhile, in the Morrisons' mansion.

Caleb, the elders, Hugo, and a few other members of the family gathered in the main hall for a meeting.

"How are things going?" Caleb asked Hugo.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2766-"Grandpa, I got lucky. Using our connection, I've already acquired a rather established pharmaceutical firm! If everything goes well, I can have all the paperwork done by tomorrow afternoon," Hugo explained with a smile.

The Morrisons were the head of all families in the western region and they had connections in all industries.

Hugo was lucky enough to acquire a pharmaceutical firm through the Morrisons' connection.

On top of that, the pharmaceutical firm was large in scale and ideal in all aspects. He knew that Leon would be pleased.

However, the acquisition and share-transferring procedures would take time. At the moment, Hugo only paid a deposit, and the rest needed to be done the next day.

"Very well!" Caleb and the elders were all overjoyed that their plan was going smoothly.

"Hugo, you did well. You never disappoint me! Once all the paperwork is submitted, we can present this pharmaceutical firm to Mister Wolf and secure the partnership with Cynthion Group!" Caleb said in relief.

Since he and the elders were too arrogant and Jayden kept causing trouble, the Morrisons came close to missing out on the opportunity to work with Cynthion Group.

Under Hugo's tireless effort, there was hope in the situation.

So long as the Morrisons delivered a pharmaceutical firm to Hugh, they would likely defeat the Dagleshs and become Cynthion Group's partner.

Caleb and the elders felt reassured at the thought.

"Yes," Hugo nodded and was about to continue when something unexpected happened.

"No! The Morrisons can't do this!" Suddenly, a sound rose and Jayden strode in with a displeased expression.

"Jayden, what's wrong with you? I told you to stay in your room to reflect on yourself. Why are you here?" Caleb frowned and reprimanded.

Jayden's foolishness almost cost them the opportunity to work with Cynthion. In a fit of rage, Caleb grounded Jayden for a month as punishment.

Naturally, Caleb was displeased.

Jayden, too, heard about it from his son and since Hugo was about to succeed, Jayden ignored Caleb's order and hurried over to the meeting to object.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2767-"How's it inappropriate?” Caleb and the elders were taken aback.

They all exchanged confused glances as they were unsure of why Jayden would object to this.

"Dad, elders, think about it. It'd require hundreds of millions for US to acquire a pharmaceutical firm. At the moment, we aren't certain about our chances of securing the partnership, yet we are already spending a fortune on a pharmaceutical firm to present to Hugh as a gift. Don't you think this is ridiculous?" Jayden said.

"Well," Caleb and the others were instantly rendered speechless as Jayden was not wrong.

A business deal would always prioritize profits. The Morrisons were yet to secure the partnership but were already planning to spend a fortune on a pharmaceutical firm for Hugh.

This was quite a price to pay and from a business perspective, it was indeed quite ridiculous.

"Uncle, you shouldn't think of it that way. A few hundred million isn't a small amount, but it'd all be worth it so long as we get to partner with Cynthion Group,” Hugo said.

"That's easy for you to say! Can you guarantee that we can partner with Cynthion Group after all the money we spend?” Jayden sneered.

"Well, I can't guarantee anything. But Mister Wolf's a reasonable and caring person! So long as we find him a suitable pharmaceutical firm, I'm pretty sure that he'll work with us!" Hugo said.

He knew that Caleb and the others' arrogance enraged Leon. Even if they acquired a pharmaceutical firm now, he could not guarantee that Leon would agree to work with them.

However, based on what he knew about Leon, he was quite confident.

"Pretty sure? What good is that? If we spend all that money and we can certainly partner with Cynthion Group, I'd have nothing to say. However, this is all just your speculation. First of all, Hugh may not need a firm and this is just a theory of yours. Besides, even if he needs one, the one we acquired may not satisfy his needs! If we spend all the money and end up not getting the partnership, who's going to compensate our loss?” Jayden said in contempt.

"Well," Hugo, Caleb, and the others fell into silence.

Upon hearing what Jayden said, his concern deepened.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2768-"Besides, Hugh’s just the vice president, not the chairman! We’re spending a fortune to win the favor of a vice president. It's laughable!" Jayden added.

"Jayden isn't wrong," The elders exchanged glances, wavering.

Like Jayden, they all looked down on Hugh because he was just the vice president.

Jayden's words made sense and they started to think that it was foolish of them to fawn over a mere vice president.

"Jayden, we understand what you are saying, but Hugh holds the right to decide who Cynthion Group will partner with."

"He asked the Dagleshs to compete with US because he now prefers the Dagleshs. To obtain the partnership with Cynthion Group, we could only gamble on our chances."

"We can't just let the Dagleshs get the opportunity,"

The elders said with resignation.

"We don't know that! It's the chairman, Leon Wolf, who makes the call. Hugh's just a puppet acting like he has all the power! If we want the partnership, we can reach out to Leon instead. That's far better than fawning over Hugh!" Jayden sneered.

"Reach out to Leon?"

"No way!"

"Leon's in the southern region, so how are we going to reach out to him?"

The elders shook their heads.

"Why not? The southern region is right next to the western region and it's just a few hours' drive away. We can send a few people and follow Hugo to the southern region so that we can discuss this deal with Leon in person. So long as he promises to partner with the Morrisons, we can acquire a pharmaceutical firm for him. That way, we won't lose anything!" Jayden explained.

"Well, that's true," Realization dawned on the elders.

There was no reason for them to fawn over a mere vice president.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2769-"That's a good idea!” The elders' eyes lit up with joy.

Profit would always motivate people.

The Morrisons only refrained from agreeing to the partnership because the profit division Hugh proposed was unfavorable.

Given Cynthion Group's influence and potential, the Morrisons would benefit greatly if they could convince Leon to raise their profit to thirty percent.

Everyone was instantly moved.

"What? Uncle, are you seriously still thinking about raising the percentage at this point? Mister Wolf won't agree to it!" Contrary to the elders' reaction, Hugo was shocked to learn that Jayden was still foolishly trying to obtain more profit.

Hence, he immediately objected to it.

"You are not Leon, so how would you know if he's going to agree? Besides, we are just testing the water by going to the southern region. It's ideal if he agrees to give US thirty percent of the total profit. Even if he doesn't agree to it, we have nothing to lose so long as he agrees to partner with US. It's still far better than fawning over Hugh!" Jayden said coldly.

"Jayden is right!"

"We can try his plan. We have nothing to lose!"

The elders nodded their heads in agreement.

Clearly, they had been convinced once again for the sake of greater gain.

"No way! Uncle, you don't know this, but Hugh is… Regardless, Hugh is in charge of this partnership and what he says represents Leon's decision. If we go around him to speak with Leon, we would just embarrass ourselves!" Hugo said anxiously.

He knew that Hugh was actually Leon.

Yet, Jayden wanted to go around Hugh and negotiate with Leon directly.

This was laughable.

If Leon found out that Jayden was still meddling, he would give up on working with the Morrisons altogether and choose the Dagleshs instead.

This would only result in the Morrisons missing out on this opportunity and Hugo could not let Jayden get his way.

"Yeah, Hugo. Hugh is just the vice president so how can he compare to the chairman?"

The elders agreed along.

"Why you…" Hugo was livid that the elders started supporting Jayden.

Instantly, he found himself at a crossroad.

Just as he panicked, something unexpected happened.

The Ex Husbands Revenge Chapter 2770-"Who says that Hugh can't represent Leon? You're all fools!" A melodious voice rose and Renee strode into the main hall.

"Renee! What are you saying? We're your seniors! Is this how you speak to us?" Jayden reprimanded in displeasure.

The elders felt the same and their expression darkened over being mocked by a junior.

"I'm just stating a fact! Let me tell you the truth, Uncle. Hugh's actually Leon, the chairman of Cynthion Group. Isn't it foolish of you to think about going around Hugh to speak with Leon in the southern region?" Renee scoffed.

"What? Are you saying that Hugh is Leon? How's that possible?" Jayden and the others were all shocked.

Based on what the third elder found, they knew that Leon injured the Southern Boss and eliminated the Demon Lord all by himself. From that, they concluded His strength and status rivaled that of Caleb and the Western Boss.

The world of martial artists valued strength above all and from their perspectives, Leon was one of the most powerful martial artists they knew.

Hugh, on the other hand, was just a vice president of Cynthion Group and a young man.

Hence, they allowed themselves to believe that he was just a puppet of Leon and looked down on him.

They were certain that Hugh was worth nothing compared to Leon.

To their bewilderment, the Hugh that they were looking down on was the almighty Len.

This was so surreal that they could not believe it.

"Renee, how do you know that Hugh is Mister Wolf?" Hugo was shocked, but not about the same thing.

"Oh, Felton guessed Leon's actual identity," Renee proceeded to explain what happened.

They were initially quite skeptical about what Renee said and even thought she might be mistaken.

This caught them all by surprise and they were all stunned.
