The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 88
“Shameless!” Michael sneered.
Leon ignored him, walked quickly to Iris’s side, and said excitedly, “I have some good news to tell you,
Miss Young. A cooperation with the Wick Group is now possible. I’ve just sealed the deal with-

“Are you stupid, Mister Wolf?” Michael interrupted Leon before the latter could finish. speaking. “Miss
Summers has already made it crystal clear to you just now that our company isn’t qualified to cooperate
with them. They’re not interested in what we have to offer! Do you have Alzheimer’s or something? Or do
you have the memory of a goldfish?” Michael laughed mockingly at Leon as if Leon was the entire circus.
The rest of the crowd reacted more or less the same and wondered if Leon stirred trouble on purpose!
“Shut up!”
Leon glared at Michael. “Who told you that the Wick Group won’t cooperate with our company? I just got
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtoff a call from their chairman and we’ve already agreed to sign the contract tonight!”
“WHAT?! That call you received was from the Wick Group’s chairman?”
Leon’s revelation was like a bombshell that nearly blew the minds of all the high–level executives in the
conference room!
“Are you delusional, Mister Wolf? You should know that there are limits to bragging!”
“Have you ever stopped to compare your status with that of the Wick Group’s chairman? Are you
seriously claiming that they called you? You can’t be serious!”
“Yes! The Wick Group is not just any ordinary business conglomerate. The Wicks are one of the most
powerful and influential upper–class families in Springfield City!”
“And the company chairman is none other than the patriarch! At least compare yourself with him, for
goodness‘ sake! You’re not even fit to polish their shoes!”
The executives burst into laughter all at once and only stopped short of rolling on the floor.
Leon’s remark had all but cemented their opinion that Leon was either mentally retarded or deliberately
stirring trouble!
2/2
In Springfield City, most upper–class families were divided into first–rank and second- rank. In turn, the
four major families ranked highest among the first–rank families.
Although the Wicks were not one of the four major families, one could consider them as ranked among
the first–class families. In terms of its strength and influence, they were almost on par with the Youngs.
That alone was a testament to the Wick patriarch’s esteem!
The Wicks might not even entertain Iris if she went to visit them, what more a lowly little secretary like
Leon! After all, if they wanted to consider working with Iris, they would have rejected the Elegante Group
before!
“Haven’t you had enough, Leon?” Iris glared at Leon angrily and was fast losing her patience with his
antics.
She knew Leon’s history well, and if Leon had the capability of establishing a relationship with the Wicks,

“Iri- Miss Young… I’m telling the truth…”
Leon’s mind went blank. He thought that Iris would be elated to hear the good news, but little did he
imagine that Iris would not believe him in the slightest.
“Shut it! Another word from you and you’re out of the meeting!” Iris’s pretty face turned icy, and she was
utterly incensed by what happened.
Leon repeatedly became the focus of everyone’s attention from the very minute the meeting started. It
was a deliberate act of grandstanding from him, which gave her no reason to trust any of his words!
Ariel, meanwhile, was already facepalming and covering part of her face. She chided Leon in her heart
because she felt secondhand embarrassment for Leon even if he
did not feel embarrassed of himself!
“I…” Leon opened his mouth but hesitated to speak any further. He could see that Iris was very angry
and he did not want to piss her off even more.
