Chapter 1030
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âGrandpa, donât worry! We might not be able to rely on the Youngs, but we have Leon on our side! Iâm sure heâll help us!â Iris said, entrusting Leon with leading them to success.
âLeon?â Albert paused in confusion.
Leon was viewed as the Youngsâ enemy before he lost consciousness and it was extremely kind of Leon to agree to treat Albert, so Albert did not dare to ask for his help in taking back control of the family.
Iris noticed the doubt in Albertâs mind and explained, âGrandpa, Leon and I are back together.â
âWhat? Really?â Albertâs jaw dropped.
Ever since he realized that he wronged Leon, he regretted forcing Iris and Leon apart. Though he told Iris to beg Leon to take her back, Leon already became Cynthiaâs boyfriend at the time and Iris was left with no options but to give up. Hence, he was shocked to find that Iris and Leon got back together.
âYeah, itâs true.â Iris nodded.
âIâm so glad!â Albert instantly burst out laughing in excitement.
Not only was Leon extremely capable in the art of alchemy, but he was also a talented martial artist who was referred to as the best of his generation by the families in Springfield City; with Leon on their side, their hope in returning to the Youngs would be much higher.
However, Albert soon recalled how he wronged Leon in the past and his expression darkened at the memories of him chasing Leon out despite what Leon did for them.
âLeon, weâve been wrong in the past. Iâve wronged you. I hope you can forgive us,â Albert sighed and apologized sincerely, without a care of his pride.
âItâs fine. Itâs all in the past now,â Leon smiled.
He resented Gilbert and Albert for a time when they kicked him out. However, they were both related to Iris and out of his love for Iris, he would not hold a grudge against the two of them. All things aside, he proved himself innocent and since Albert apologized to him, Leon felt much better.
âLeon, weâre relying on you and I hope that you can lend us a hand to get us back to our home,â Albert pleaded.
For a time, they looked down on Leon because he was a powerless orphan. The tables turned and they were the ones who needed to rely on Leon..
âYeah, Iâll try my best.â Leon nodded.
âThank you, Leon,â Iris wrapped her arm around Leonâs and looked at him lovingly with gratitude.
She knew that Leon set aside his resentiment toward Albert and Gilbert and agreed to help for her sake and at that very moment, her love for him deepened.
âElder Young, you just woke up and youâre still weak. Just rest for a few days.â
