Chapter 1384
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
After some time, Leon and Iris arrived at the mansion.
As soon as they appeared, Irisâs beauty immediately attracted the attention of all the guests, and the people crowded around the entrance gazed in awe at her striking beauty!
Apart from staring at Iris in amazement, some of the younger guests even shot Leon glances of jealousy and envy, trying to figure out how someone like Leon managed to land a gorgeous woman like Iris!
At this moment, Damian and Julie, who stood a short distance away, caught sight of them and came over to say hi, with Julie wheeling Damian along in his wheelchair.
âHello, Uncle Damian, Aunt Julie,â Iris greeted as she approached them, her arm entwined around Leonâs.
âWhere have you been, Iris, Leon? Why didnât you come around to visit us over the last few days?â
Damian asked questioningly. Neither of them saw Leon or Iris ever since they left the mansion a few days ago, and if he did not call Iris to ask how they were doing, he and Julie would still be worried that something bad happened to them!
âUncle, Leon was intending to buy out a pharmaceutical company here in the Southern Region, but something went wrong,â Iris explained. She paused, contemplating whether or not to reveal what happened with the Libertons to Damian, but before she could open her mouth, Damian interrupted her.
âLeon wants to buy out a pharmaceutical company? Why? Did he use to run one back in Springfield City?â Damian was surprised to hear this.
âYes, thatâs always been my strength,â Leon replied, smiling.
âOh, thatâs right! I shouldâve known. Youâre so good at medicineâyouâd be the perfect candidate to run a pharmaceutical company!â Damian exclaimed, suddenly recalling Leonâs previous display of his medical expertise. It was undeniable that with Leonâs expertise, running a pharmaceutical company would be a piece of cake!
However, unbeknownst to Damian, the reason Leon was looking to buy out a pharmaceutical company was not just for the business, but also to brew some of his herbs! way, âBy the Uncle Damian, do you know of any pharmaceutical companies that might suit us? Weâre looking for something midscale,â Leon asked. The Scammells were one of the oldest families in the Southern region and possessed power and influence that none of them could even begin to imagine.
To ask Damian for advice would certainly be much more effective than searching blindly like how he and the girls did!
âUm, Iâm not too sure about that! The Scammells do own a couple of midscale pharmaceutical companies that seem to be what youâre looking for, but unfortunately, weâre not planning to sell them,â
Damian replied.
The Scammells were one of the biggest medicinal herbs suppliers in the Southern region, and since this was closely tied to the pharmaceutical field, the Scammells established their own pharmaceutical companies a few years ago to expand the market.
Since the Scammellsâ main export was herbs, Damian, as the eldest of the direct descendants, was in charge of that, whereas the pharmaceutical business were always the collateral descendantsâ property.
Therefore, Damian did not know much about that side of the business at all.
âOh, okay,â Leon could not help being disappointed at this.
