Chapter 1119

If Leon ended up being imprisoned for decades, Iris would waste her youth waiting for Leon.

“Iris, I think what Anson said makes sense. Maybe you can reconsider this?” Gilbert said.

“Dad-”

Before Iris could say anything, Albert walked over. “Gilbert, are you stupid? Leon has done our family a great favor and it’s bad enough that you aren’t grateful for that. Are you still trying to tear him and Iris apart?” He roared in annoyance.

“Dad, it’s not that I want to, but what would happen to Iris if Leon ends up getting locked away for life?”

Gilbert said.

“Yeah! Elder Young, are you okay with Iris becoming a widow?” Anson agreed.

“Well,” Albert was instantly rendered speechless.

“Anson Collins, shut your damn mouth! I’m perfectly alive so how can Iris be a widow? Run your mouth again and I’ll beat you up!” Leon shouted as he strode in with a dark look on his face.

If the Collins did not help him in the past, Leon would have slapped Anson in the face right away.

“Leon, why are you back?!” Anson was shocked.

The others, including Iris and Gilbert, were all stunned as well.

“Leon, you are fine! I’m so glad!” Iris sobered and immediately threw herself into Leon’s arms in tears.

“Are we dreaming?” Ruth and Albert were surprised as well.

They all thought that Leon would be imprisoned and did not expect him to return unscathed.

“Leon, weren’t you captured by the Dragon Corps? Why did they let you go?” Anson questioned sharply, unable to comprehend why the Dragon Corps would let Leon go unpunished.

“Yeah!”

“What happened, Leon?”

Iris, Ruth, and the others blurted out asking.

“Well, I contributed a few treatment methods to the Dragon Corps and they decided to let me go,” Leon explained, but did not mention how he cured Master Haslewood, as it had nothing to do with the current situation.

“What? That’s it?” Anson was shaken to the core.

He knew all along that Leon was extremely talented in medicine, but did not expect that to be a bargaining chip that bought Leon his freedom.

“Seems like the gods favor him as well!” Albert burst out laughing.

With the Youngs being torn apart, he relied on Leon to lead the Youngs back to glory and relaxed now that Leon returned safely.

In comparison to Albert’s joy, Gilbert fell into silence sheepishly.

He thought that Leon might be imprisoned and was about to talk to Iris about considering Anson, yet Leon returned within a matter of days.
