The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 931

Theodore was the heir of the Fields. He would definitely control the family in the future, so his future was incredibly bright.

However, he would lose all of that if he was crippled by Leon. He would be abandoned by the family. It was something he could not accept!

Suddenly, he felt a chill in his heart, and all the defenses around his heart crumbled.

"No, don't!”

"Leon, I know I was wrong. Please show some mercy and spare me!"

Theodore was filled with shock and horror as he pleaded.

"I thought you would have more of a backbone than this, but it looks like I was wrong!" Leon mocked and laughed.

The Fields and him were enemies. They had a deep grudge against each other. On top of that, the Fields tried to kill him over and over again. There was no reason for him to show the Fields any mercy.

Yet, he did not finish the job with Theodore in the end. In the first place, he was not in the habit of killing people. On the other hand, sparing Theodore's life would stop the Fields from going crazy.

"Yes, yes, you're right," Theodore held back the humiliation in his heart and the pain throughout his body, not daring to talk back to Leon.

"Theodore, I guess you know when you're bested. I'll let you off today! Once you go back, tell that old man from your family that this is the last time! If he dares to scheme against me again. I'll eliminate everyone from the younger generation of your family. I'll make sure there's no one left to carry on the family line! I'll make sure to do what I said!" Leon said coldly. His eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"That-"

Feeling the intense aura coming from Leon, Theodore shuddered.

He knew that Leon was not fooling around. Leon was at the level of a peak Supreme Master. Even though Leon was still not strong enough to go against the older generation, he would be able to deal with the younger generation. Even the second generation was not able to defeat Leon.

If the Fields forced Leon into a corner and Leon truly started killing everyone, the Fields would not be able to come out of it unscathed!

"Alright, you can get lost now!" Leon said coldly, moving his foot that was on Theodore's chest away.

"Y-yes."

Theodore scrambled up. After that, he did not even dare to say anything as he fled the scene while being supported by a few of his family's experts.

Once Theodore and the others left, Leon walked in front of Ruth and thanked her sincerely, "Miss Collins, thank you so much for this. Thankfully, you arrived with your men in time. I'll remember this favor. I'll definitely repay you when I have the chance."

"Whatever, stop putting on an act. You're not sincere at all," Ruth glared at Leon unhappily.

She did not forget how Leon used her to deal with Theodore. With Leon breaking Theodore's legs, the Collins definitely made an enemy of the Fields this time.

However, the Collins were in a mutually beneficial relationship with Leon, so helping Leon was the least she could do. Leon thanked her very sincerely as well. No matter how unhappy she was about the situation, she could say nothing.

"That's right, why did you come here, Leon?" Ruth quickly changed the topic.

"Oh, Elegante needs some medicinal ingredients, so I came here to purchase them," Leon explained briefly.

"Are you done with your purchases? If you are, let's just go back," Ruth said.

Uhm, not yet. They won't sell us.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 932

Leon smiled awkwardly, not sure how he should answer that question.

"They're not selling you the medicine? Then why are they even in business?"

Ruth was stunned. She wondered if she misheard things before she looked at Mister Zogg, asking, "Hey, who's in charge of your store?"

At that moment, Mister Zogg was completely in shock, and did not answer for a long time.

He thought that Leon was just the chairman of a small company, so he was not scared of making an enemy of Leon at all.

Yet, Leon was first fought over by Cynthia and Iris, and after that, both Theodore and Ruth appeared.

Because of Leon, the younger generation of the Youngs, the Shears, the Collins and the Fields all appeared!

Even crazier was the fact that Leon broke Theodore's legs and caused Theodore to flee in a panic!

It obviously shocked Mister Zogg!

Even at that moment, he was still completely shocked. He could not help but wonder who exactly Leon was!

"I'm talking to you. Are you deaf?" Ruth said when Mister Zogg did not answer.

"Oh, yes. Greetings, Miss Collins. I'm Zogg, and I'm in charge of this shop.”

When Mister Zogg snapped back to reality, he hurriedly nodded and bowed, not daring to delay things.

Even though he never saw Ruth before, he found out who Ruth was from Leon and Theodore's conversation earlier. She was the eldest daughter of the Collins!

She was not someone he could offend!

"Mister Zogg, yes? Go prepare everything Leon needs. You'll suffer if you're even a second too slow!" Ruth said coldly.

She came to look for Leon because she was planning to move in with Leon. The faster Leon was done with the medicine, the faster he could help her.

"Yes, yes, I'll go prepare them right now."

Mister Zogg did not dare to go against it. He had an apologetic smile on his face as he turned around to prepare the medicine.

"No, you're not selling them!" Cynthia said coldly.

Just now, she temporarily put aside her hatred for Leon because of Theodore, and even planned on helping Loen deal with Theodore.

However, when Theodore left, her hatred for Leon surfaced again, and she quickly reverted back to her earlier attitude.

"Cynthia, is there something wrong with you? What does Leon wanting to buy medicine have anything to do with you?"

Ruth stopped for a moment. She quickly realized what was going on.

News that Leon hurt Cynthia during the engagement party spread all over Springfield City. Almost everyone in the martial world knew about it.

It was not hard for Ruth to guess what was happening. No wonder Leon could not get what he wanted. In the end, everything happened because Cynthiastopped him.

"If I said so, then it'll be so! I won't budge today!" Cynthia said coldly, not taking a step back at all.

"You!"

Ruth's face darkened.

She did not plan on interfering with the matter between Leon and Cynthia, but she was the treasured daughter of the Collins. She was already used to getting everything she wanted, so she was not a good tempered person.

Cynthia spoke too forcefully earlier, as if Cynthia was ordering her around. That definitely angered her.

"If I said they have to sell it, then they have to! If they won't, then I'll destroy this shop today!" Ruth said coldly.

"No! If they do, then I'll destroy their shop today!"

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 933

Cynthia's beautiful eyes glared right at Ruth, but Ruth refused to take a step back at all.

Both of them glared right at each other, and there seemed to be sparks between them. Neither of them were willing to take a step back.

Right after that, both of them looked at Mister Zogg, saying, ’Mister Zogg, are you going to sell, or not?"

Mister Zogg was completely stunned, and he stood there dumbfounded.

Both Cynthia and Ruth were incredibly powerful people that he could not offend. No matter what he answered, his shop would be done for!

"What are you staring at? Talk!"

Both Cynthia and Ruth were incredibly Unhappy. They tossed their conflict into the hands of Mister Zogg.

"Please, spare me!"

Mister Zogg was so scared that he started to kneel down and beg for mercy. He could not help but curse at the fact that those two women tossed their fight onto him!

If the shop was really destroyed by them, what was he supposed to say to his boss?

"No!"

"You have to tell us if you're going to sell or not!"

Cynthia and Ruth refused to relent.

Mister Zogg was on the verge of tears, not knowing what to do.

"Ruth, it's fine, I won't buy the medicine today. Let's not trouble Mister Zogg anymore."

Leon sighed as he pulled Ruth away.

There were plenty of stores in Springfield City, there was no reason for him to be stubborn and keep going against Cynthia since Cynthia made her mind to interfere. He could just make his purchase elsewhere.

"It's all your fault! If you didn't betray her, she wouldn't target you like that!" Ruth said angrily as she glared at Leon.

Leon was speechless. He was forced to swallow anything he had to say.

"Mister Wolf, thank you. Thank you."

Mister Zogg was ecstatic as he hurriedly thanked Leon.

Earlier, he even thought about stabbing Leon in the back.

Yet, Leon actually helped him and saved his shop from being destroyed.

Suddenly, he looked incredibly relieved as he looked at Leon with a face full of gratitude.

"Iris, let's go."

Leon shot Cynthia a complicated look. After that, he left the store with Iris.

Ruth pouted as she followed them with the experts from the Collins.

"That despicable man! Is he really going to be so heartless with me? Fine, one day I'll make sure he begs me for help!"

Looking at Leon slowly leave, Cynthia's eyes were completely reddened as tears started to well up.

After leaving the store, Leon drove Iris and Ruth to some other stores.

Yet, he never would have dreamed that Cynthia already notified the other stores. No one was to work with Elegante!

He was rejected by all of them.

In the car, Leon could not help but feel frustrated.

"Leon, how is it? Are you stunned now? You deserve it!" Ruth added fuel to the flames.

Even though she did not know what exactly happened between Leon and Cynthia, she still knew that Leon betrayed cynthia. On top of that, she had some conflicts with Leon before, so she did not like Leon at all!

If it was not for the sake of her grandfather and her family, she would never have agreed to get close to Leon!

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 934

"Cynthia really pulled off a ruthless move this time!" Leon smiled bitterly at what Cynthia did.

"Leon, what do we do now? If we don't have the materials, how is the company going to produce cosmetics?" Iris asked with a face full of worry.

Elegante's products that had the most value and potential were those high- end cosmetics that Leon developed himself. Without those high-end cosmetics, the company would definitely suffer tremendous losses.

"Don't worry, I'll ask the Southern King for help. With his power and connections, he'll probably be able to help us source something," Leon said after a moment of silence, putting all his hopes on Vincent.

Vincent was one of the two kings of the underworld. He controlled half of the underworld in Springfield, and had various connections to the black markets. If it was something exceptionally valuable or rare, Vincent might not have been able to get it, but if it was just simple materials they needed to make the cosmetics, it should not trouble Vincent at all!

"Yes, that's the only thing we can do now," Iris nodded, relaxing visibly.

"Alright, Leon. Let's put that aside for now. Can you hurry up and arrange a place for me to stay?!” Ruth said.

Earlier, she went around a few stores with Leon, and her feet were starting to get sore. She wanted to go back earlier to rest. She was in no mood to continue running around with Leon.

"A place to stay?" Iris said with surprise, not understanding what Ruth meant.

"That-"

"Iris, I have something I wasn't able to tell you. Ruth's going to move in with us."

Leon had an awkward smile on his face.

He planned on telling Iris that, but he was pestered by Gilbert, so he forgot.

"What? Ruth is going to stay with us? But, why?" Iris was shocked. She looked at Ruth before looking at Leon, her face was full of confusion.

She just got back together with Leon, but Leon had suddenly brought a woman home. It was even an incredibly beautiful woman at that.

No matter who it was, they would have some misunderstandings of the situation. She was no exception.

"This is what happened. Elder Collins wants me to help Ruth get to the Overlord State."

Leon hurriedly explained the situation to Iris.

"Are you serious?"

After Leon's explanation, Iris was still doubtful.

She knew of Leon's deal with the Colins. George asked Leon to help Ruth get to the Overlord STate. That was quite reasonable, and there was nothing wrong with that.

However, thanks to what happened between Cynthia and Leon, she had some problems accepting something like this.

Leon's relationship with Cynthia was not even properly resolved yet when Ruth suddenly appeared!

Furthermore, Ruth was on the same level as Cynthia whether it was in looks or family background, so Ruth was a great threat to Iris.

At that moment, she could not help but feel a sense of danger. She was worried that Ruth would fight with her for Leon just like Cynthia did!

"It's absolutely true! Ruth just wants to move in so it'll be easier for me to teach her. There's no other reason," Leon said in a hurry.

"But-"

Iris was still hesitant, not wanting Ruth to move in.

However, Leon already promised George, so she could not really reject it.

"Iris, don't worry. Leon's a useless divorcee. He's nothing good at all. Only you and Iris would treasure someone like him. I don't like him at all." i

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 936

“Don’t you know who’s the one actually messing around?” Snow viciously glared at Leon.

However, she knew she was no match for Leon, so she did not continue attacking.

“Did I somehow offend you?” Leon was even more confused at Snow’s answer.

“What do you think? Cynthia loves you so much, why did you have to do that to her?” Snow said with a huff.

Snow was invited to attend Leon and Cynthia’s engagement, so she naturally knew of everything that happened.

Furthermore, he knew that Leon was always close to the Shears, and knew that Cynthia really did love Leon.

Yet, during the engagement, Leon actually betrayed Cynthia like that. It made her very unhappy.

“So you’re protesting for Cynthia’s sake!”

Leon realized something. After that, he sighed, “Snow, I’ve definitely wronged Cynthia this time. I didn’t hurt her on purpose. I did all of that because I had no other choice.”

“I don’t care about that! I just know that Cynthia really does love you. She and the Shears have helped you so much, but this is how you treat her. That’s crossing the line.”

Snow looked incredibly indignant.

After that, she looked like she thought about some tragic past, and her expression dimmed a bit.

“Snow, I didn’t want to do that. I just had no other options. If you really can’t accept it, you can kick me a few times for Cynthia,” Leon said helplessly.

“I was just planning on doing that!” Snow said coldly, adopting her stance as she prepared to kick Leon.

“Stop!” Right at that moment, Vincent was heard. He walked over from the back.

“Snow, don’t cause any trouble!” Vincent glared at his daughter unhappily.

“I’m not. I’m just angry because he treated Cynthia so badly.”

Snow pouted unhappily.

She was hurt romantically before, so she sympathized with what Cynthia went through. That was the main reason why she wanted to speak up for Cynthia.

On the other hand, after being attacked by Morgan and having both her and Leon’s lives in danger, both of them got much closer. She already saw Leon as her little brother, and Leon silently acknowledged her as a sister.

As his sister, she felt like she needed to correct Leon’s mistakes!

“You can’t force matters of the heart. Leon has his own difficulties. Don’t make things harder for him!”

Vincent said.

“I-”

Even though Snow was still unhappy, she said nothing back.

She knew what kind of person Leon was. Leon was not a dishonorable person. If he was not forced, Leon would not have done all of that.

“Leon, Snow wasn’t trying to offend you just now. Please forgive her,” Vincent looked at Leon with an apologetic smile.

“Mister Poole, it’s fine. Snow had good intentions. I can understand how she feels,” Leon said.

Just thinking about Cynthia put him in a complicated mood, but there was nothing he could do about it.

“That’s right, did you need me for something?” Vincent asked.

“It’s like this, I want you to help me get some materials.”

Leon pushed aside his frustrations as he gave Vincent the list of things he needed.

“Alright, no problem. This is just a small matter, you can leave it to me! In two days at most, I’ll have all of these sent to your company!”

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 935

Ruth could tell what Iris was worried about. He pursed her lips and looked at Leon in disdain.

Iris and Cynthia’s family backgrounds were no worse than hers, and their looks were on her level as well. She could not understand what those two women saw in a useless man like Leon!

Sometimes, she wondered if there was something wrong with their eyes!

“That’s true.”

Iris blushed, realizing that she was being worried for no reason.

It was just like Ruth said. Leon was just an orphan who had a divorce before. He was not some amazing treasure. Leon’s looks were nothing incredible either. No matter how you looked at it, there were many young men in Springfield City who were much better than Leon.

Only her and Cynthia were too stupid, falling for Leon for some reason.

To other women, Leon was a completely worthless divorcee!

On top of that, Ruth had everything from wealth to looks to terrifying potential. When it came to Ruth, she could get any man she wanted.

How could Ruth possibly fight Iris over a divorced man?!

She was just overthinking things!

“Alright, let’s go back.”

Leon let out a sigh of relief when Iris agreed. After that, the three of them drove away from the place.

When they were back at Dragonbay Villas, Leon and Iris tidied up a guest room for Ruth to stay in.

Other than that, Iris did not forget to tell Gilbert about Ruth temporarily moving in.

Gilbert did not voice anything against that, and welcomed Ruth in.

Gilbert and Iris were already forced out of the Youngs. They were in a very bad state. If they could get closer to the Collins, he might be able to get the Collins to help him rejoin the family. It was a good thing. He had no reason to object to it.

Leon was very concerned about the materials. To avoid causing trouble for the production of the high–end cosmetics, he had Iris and Ruth rest at home before he drove to the Southern King’s home.

Over there, Leon was led into the main hall by a guard when he arrived. Halfway there, Leon bumped into

Snow.

“Leon, why are you here?”

Snow was very surprised to see Leon, and hurried over.

“Snow, I came here to see your father, I have something I need his help with,” Leon smiled as he spoke, greeting SNow.

“Oh, so that’s it.”

Snow frowned slightly. After that, she seemed to think of something as she motioned with her finger, “Leon, come here for a moment!”

“What is it?”

Leon was very curious as bent his head closer.

Swoosh!

Without a second word, Snow’s long leg kicked right out at Leon’s face.

“Snow, what are you doing?”

Leon was shocked as he shot back, narrowly avoiding Snow’s kick.

“I’m not doing anything. I just feel angry looking at you, so I want to teach you a proper lesson!” Snow said coldly, turning around and sending Leon another kick.

Leon did not know what Snow was doing. He reached out and grabbed Snow’s foot, blocking the attack.

“Snow, what are you doing? Can you stop messing around?” Leon said unhappily before he released Snow.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 937

Vincent answered quickly.

“Mister Poole, thank you so much,” Leon thanked. He finally relaxed after dealing with the matter.

“We’re no outsiders here. You don’t have to be so polite. Leon, it’s getting late. You rarely come over. Why don’t you stay back for dinner?” FVincent said with a smile.

“There’s no need.”

Leon wanted to reject it, but he was stopped by Vincent before he could finish.

“I haven’t even thanked you for helping me get to the Overlord State last time. You have to say yes today. I want to properly toast you and thank you,” Vincent insisted.

“Alright then.”

Leon did not want to embarrass Vincent, so he quickly agreed.

It was already past seven when Leon got home. Iris, Louisa and the others just finished dinner.

“Leon, you’re back. How did it go?”

Iris hurried over when she saw Leon.

“It’s already settled. Mister Poole said he would have everything sent to the company in two days at the latest,” Leon said with a smile.

“That’s great.”

Iris was happy that the pressing concern was finally dealt with.

“Leon, we haven’t practiced martial arts together in a long time! Iris has already recovered from her injuries. Let’s train together from tonight onwards,” Louisa said, bouncing around and looking incredibly impatient.

She loved martial arts. Ever since Leon taught her the Mysterious Maiden Method, Leon, her and Iris would regularly train together in the past.

However, she found it less interesting after Leon left.

With Leon back and Iris already recovered, she was suddenly inspired to train again.

“Yes, alright, that suits me just fine,” Leon smiled.

Training alone was boring and dry. Iris and Louisa training with him was a beautiful thing. He naturally agreed.

Iris had the same thoughts as well. So many things happened with the Youngs, and she started to clearly feel the importance of martial arts. She wanted to train herself properly, hoping she would be able to reach

Leon’s levels!

After that, Leon, Iris and Louisa retreated to the room to train.

“Training?”

In a corner,

Ruth looked at Iris and Louisa entering the room with Leon with a thoughtful expression on her face.

This time, she moved in both so Leon could help her get to the Overlord State and also to get closer to Leon under instruction from her grandfather.

She needed to get a Power Class Method from Leon!

She was very interested that Leon was bringing the two girls into the room to train. She wanted to see what kind of method Leon was using!

However, training was something private. Leon would definitely not let her observe for no reason. She could not find an excuse to go over either.

She was forced to dispel the notion. She would quietly observe Leon for a few days and see if there are any chances later on!

In the room, Leon looked at Iris and Louisa’s levels, and he was pleasantly surprised.

Iris and Louisa did not stop training after he left. On top of that, they were quite talented. The two of them. improved quite a bit.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 938

Louisa already reached the late Acquired State, and was only a sliver away from the peak Acquired State.

Iris was even better than Louisa. Iris was already at the peak Acquired State!

Comparatively, Leon did not improve much at all. He was already at the peak of the Acquired State for a long time without any improvements.

Of course, there was a reason his martial arts was still at that level. The first reason was because there was a gulf between the peak Acquired State and initial Innate State that was not easy to pass.

He was also more focused on the sage arts, so he lagged behind in terms of martial arts.

However, he was fortunate enough to be reasonably talented in martial arts, and he was even using an amazing Absolute Method. So, the rate of his improvements was much faster than anyone else.

Even though he was still not at the initial Innate State, he was not too far away,

He could even feel that he would probably only need another two or three days to reach that level!

“Alright, let’s start training!”

Leon took out three premium Energy Nurturing Pills and gave one each to Iris and Louisa before he took one himself.

Right after that, the three of them sat down and started training in earnest.

The next two days, Leon would go to work with Iris during the day and practice with Iris and Louisa during the night. Life went quite well.

However, he never noticed that Ruth was quietly observing his every move the whole time, preparing the make her move!

Other than that, news of him crippling Theodore’s legs spread. Whether it was the Fields or the Northern King, all of them found out that the Collins were now one of his new backers!

Harold and George thought that they would be able to easily deal with Leon once Leon and the Collins‘ deal was done.

They never would have expected that Leon would suddenly be allied with the Collins right after his relationship with the Shears crumbled. It caught all of them off guard.

Worried about the power of the Collins, the two sides waited quietly, not daring to move recklessly. However, with their grudges against Leon, they would absolutely not let Leon off so easily!

Everything seemned quiet and peaceful on the surface, but it was like the calm before the storm.

The next day, at the chairman’s office in Elegante, Leon worked as he learned about the company’s matters from Iris.

The Southern King already sent over what they needed the day before, solving Elegante’s problems with the high–end cosmetics.

There was nothing else to worry about, so Leon and Iris were both in a comfortable mood.

Right at that moment, they heard knocking on the door. Ariel walked right in with a frown on her face.

Iris was curious at Ariel’s expression, “Ariel, what’s wrong? What happened?”

“Iris, this is bad. Something really bad happened. I just received news that the Wick Group has canceled our deal,” Ariel reported with worry.

“What?” Iris and Leon were both shocked as they stood up together.

The Wicks were their biggest clients and also the biggest distributors in Springfield City. Many of the company’s products needed to be sold through the Wick Group.

If the Wick Group canceled their deal, then it would definitely bring great losses to Elegante. It might end up even worse than not being able to produce the high–end cosmetics!

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 939

That was not the important point. The important point was that Leon’s relationship with the Wicks was always close. When Elegante managed to secure the contract with the Wicks, it was all thanks to Leon.

Yet, Leon canceled the contract for no reason. It shocked Iris and Leon greatly!

“Leon, what happened? Why would the Wicks suddenly cancel our agreement?” Iris asked in confusion.

“I don’t know what happened either. Let me give Jenson a call.”

As Leon said that, he took out his phone.

“Hello, Mister Wolf. Are you calling me about the canceled agreement?”

Jenson’s voice was heard from the other end.

He obviously knew what Leon wanted.

“That’s right! Mister Wick, could you tell me why your company is suddenly canceling our agreement? Is there a problem with our company’s products?” Leon asked.

When they first started working with the Wick Group, Ashwin and Michale purposely added some harmful substances into the cosmetics to hurt him. Thankfully, Jenson noticed in time, or the Wick Group would have suffered tremendous losses.

Leon thought that it could be something similar again. Otherwise, there was no reason the Wick Group would cancel their agreement!

“That’s not it! It’s actually Miss Shear that made me stop working with you,” Jenson said after some hesitation.

“What? It’s Cynthia again?!”

Leon was shocked, almost exploding at the news.

He never expected that Cynthia would not only have tried to sabotage him on the ingredients but even instructed Jenson to cancel his agreement with Elegante!

It was obvious that Cynthia was deliberately trying to attack him!

“Mister Wolf, I’m sorry. You’ve helped our family greatly, so I shouldn’t be doing this, but Miss Shear constantly pleaded to me. It’s really hard for me to reject her. Please forgive me,” Jenson said apologetically. He was in a difficult spot.

In truth, Jenson felt the same as Snow. He felt like Leon definitely crossed the line a bit this time!

He knew of Leon’s relationship with the Shears, and he knew that Cynthia and the Shears helped Leon a lot. Instead, it was Iris and the Youngs that wronged Leon in many ways.

From the perspective of a friend, he felt like Cynthia was better for Leon than Iris!

He was willing to help Cynthia because he hoped that Leon would wake up and return to Cynthia’s side.

“It’s fine, I don’t blame you,” Leon let out a wry smile. He knew what Jenson meant. However, the woman he loved was Iris. He could not return to the Shears because of that!

“Mister Wolf, I can tell that Miss Shear loves you a lot. If you can, I’d advise you to go talk to her. I think she’ll definitely forgive you,” Jenson said.

“Let’s talk about this later,” Leon sighed and said before he hung up.

After Leon and Jenson’s conversation, Iris could already make out what was going on. When Leon hung up, he asked, “Leon, is it Cynthia again?”

“Yes, it is,” Leon nodded helplessly.

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge chapter 940

“What do you plan on doing now?” Iris frowned, her mood slowly sank.

With Cynthia’s control of medicinal ingredients, Leon finally solved their problems after some difficulty. Yet, Cynthia did not relent. This time, Cynthia struck quite viciously, targeting Elegante’s biggest client!

That was not the important point. The important point was that Cynthia was clearly already determined to go for Leon. Cynthia might have other tricks up her sleeve!

If Iris and Leon did not figure something out quickly, the situation would definitely get a lot worse!

“I don’t know what to do either,” Leon shut his eyes painfully.

The worst debt to repay in the world was debts of the heart. He owed Cynthia. So, he did not know how he should deal with what Cynthia was doing.

Iris did not feel happy when she saw Leon’s pained expression either.

She was the one who constantly distrusted Leon. That ended up pushing Leon to Cynthia.

However, she finally woke up in the end. She snatched Leon away from Cynthia in public, right at their engagement party!

Leon and Cynthia both become enemies mainly because of her. This caused her to feel very guilty toward Cynthia.

“Leon, Iris, don’t worry. There are three large distributors in Springfield City. The Wicks are not the only ones. Since the Wicks don’t want to work with us anymore, we can just work with Westpraise or Uniqpeace,‘ Ariel said.

Before Elegante got the agreement with Wick Group, they always worked with Westpraise. However, Westpraise and Uniqpeace were comparatively less effective than the Wick Group. Furthermore, Westpraise was more demanding, and Elegante would need to make some concessions.

Working with Westpraise or Uniqpeace would definitely affect the company’s future development, causing a lot of losses.

However, there did not seem to be any other alternatives at that moment.

“It looks like we’ll have to do that for now,” Leon said with a sigh.

He knew that it was not the best choice for the company to work with the other two distributors, but he could not figure anything out other than that.

“No, Cynthia is deliberately targeting Leon and our company right now. She definitely still has other plans! Even if our company takes a step back and manages to get past this difficult stage, it would still not solve the core issue!”

Iris shook her head, denying Ariel’s suggestion. After that, she said, “The only thing we can do is to solve the main issue. Only that will be a long term solution!”

“The main issue? That’s impossible!” Leon said.

Everything Cynthia did was to make things difficult for him, forcing him to return to the Shears.

Unless he left Iris and returned to Cynthia, there was no way to solve it.

That was just not going to happen!

“That’s not necessarily true! Only the cause of the trouble can end it!” Iris said calmly. She looked at Leon, and a complicated expression was in her eyes.

“Iris, what do you mean?” Leon frowned, not understanding what Iris said.

“Leon, let me ask you something. If you have the chance, would you leave me for Cynthia?” Iris asked back.

“Of course not!” Leon said without any hesitation.
