Chapter 1297
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âGrandpa, Leon told you not to let Uncle take the pill, but you just wonât listenâ¦â Iris sighed sorrowfully, devastated that her uncle had died from not listening to Leon.
âButâ¦â Patrick came to a realization that all the things that Leon had said were true amd Damian had indeed died from taking the Snow Panax Pill.
Just then, Amy, who had returned to her room to rest earlier, overheard all the noises and hurried back to the living room along with Damianâs wife, Julie.
âPenny, whatâs going on? What happened here?â Both Amy and Julie were shocked by the sight.
âGrandma, Mom, Dadâ¦Dad is deadâ¦â Penny broke down in tears.
âWhat?!â As though they had been struck by lightning, Amy and Julie froze. Amy stumbled backward and was close to collapsing onto the floor, but was caught by Iris in time.
âWhy is this happening? Penny, your dad was perfectly fine just now? Why is he dead?â Amy paled as she struggled to accept what was happening.
âLeon said that Dad was poisoned and should not take the Snow Panax Pill, but Dad and Grandpa wouldnât believe him and soâ¦â Penny explained with tears in her eyes.
âWhat?!â Amy was furious.
Though Damian was immobile, he was in no lifeâthreatening danger. However, he died simply because they refused to believe Leon and allowed Mister Yair to carry on with his way.
âPatrick Scammell, how dare you?! If Leon warned you about this, why wouldnât you listen to him?!â
She glared daggers at her husband.
âIâ¦I thought that he was a liar. I didnât know that he was telling the truthâ¦â Patrick muttered guiltily as he avoided her eyes.
Had he chosen to believe Leon, nothing would have happened to Damian and it was hardly an overstatement to say that he had caused Damianâs death. Patrickâs heart was heavy with guilt, but it had been too late to regret his decisions.
âYou witless old twat! You killed Damian! Iâ¦I will have your head for that!â Furious, Amy launched an attack on Patrick.
Patrick paled, but since it had all been his fault, he stood still to take the attack.
