Chapter 1200
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âWell!â Francisâs heart wavered momentarily as he could barely contain the excitement when he heard what Daniel and Owen promised.
As the leader of the Hunts, it was his lifelong goal to lead his family to the very top of the food chain in Seacove City, surpassing even the Geoffreys and the Durkans.
A chance to have these two families submit to the Hunts was rare and it was extremely difficult for Francis not to be tempted. However, he only met with Leon a few times and was not particularly close to Leon, so he turned and shot Quinton a knowing look, hoping that Quinton could convince Leon into letting Daniel and Owen go.
Quinton hesitated, before stepping forward. âMister Wolf, youâre a forgiving man. Since Elder Geoffrey and Elder Durkan admitted that they were wrong, please have mercy and spare them.â
âBut-âLeon scowled.
The Geoffreys and the Durkans were extremely ruthless and Leon did not think it would be appropriate for him to let them go unpunished. On the other hand, he was close with Quinton and Quinton helped him on multiple occasions, so it would also be inappropriate for him to turn Quinton down.
Seeing how Leon was hesitating, knees, before continuing âaniel and Owen realized that he was wavering and instantly fell to their for Lonâs forgiveness.
Leonâs forgiveness.
âMister Wolf, we were wrong and offended you. Weâre willing to pay you 287 million each as compensation.â
âIf thereâs anything else you need in Seacove City, just say the words and we will make it happen.â
âYou two sure are good at reading the air!â Leon scoffed.
He was never a cruel man and since the two seemed sincere, his urge to punish them lessened.
âMister Wolf, weâve been wrong. Please have mercy an give us a chance to change!â
âWe promise that weâll learn from this lesson and something like this will never happen again.â
âFine! Just remember that you said that! Out of respect for Mister Quinton, Iâll spare you and give you a chance to change your ways! However, if you dare to go back to your old ways after this, thereâll be no mercy for you!â Leon warned them.
âOf course.â
âThank you, Mister Wolf. Weâll remember this lesson.â
Overjoyed, Daniel and Owen got up to bow deeply at Leon.
âAlso, I donât need your money!â Leon added.
He was not a bandit and refused to take advantage of the current situation for his gain. Since the Geoffreys and the Durkans did not cause him any loss, he saw no need to ask for compensation.
