Chapter 1395
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âVery well!â The dark expression on Patrickâs face eased slightly after learning that the elders were not on Rickâs side.
âWell? If you name Eugene as your heir instead to take over the family business, I can sell one of the pharmaceutical firms to Leon!â Rick urged.
Though the elders were not entirely on his side, they started to prefer Eugene as the future heir due to Damianâs condition. Rick was certain that so long as he kept pressuring Patrick, Patrick would soon be forced to make a compromise.
âNot happening! Damian is the eldest son of the first bloodline and he is the only legitimate heir. This is not negotiable!â Patrick said sternly.
âWhy you! Patrick, Damianâs legs are ruined and he is not qualified to take control of this family, yet you insist on naming him heir for your gain! Donât you think you are playing dictator here?â Rick questioned sharply.
âWho said that his legs are ruined? Who said that he isnât qualified?! Damian, stand up and show your uncle if your legs are working!â Patrick spat mercilessly.
âAlright,â Damian muttered, before standing from his wheelchair and walking over to Rick and the other elders.
Since Leon treated him, Damian was completely cured and only remained in a wheelchair because he was still recovering.
After a few days of rest, his physical condition resumed to normal except for the occasional discomfort he felt in his legs.
If everything went smoothly, he would have a full recovery within a few days.
âIs he cured?â
âHowâs that possible?â
Rick, Eugene, and Nigel were all stunned, and so were the elders and the other Scammells.
They all stared at Damianâs legs in disbelief as they knew how he sought help from countless doctors before, yet found no cure for his condition.
To their bewilderment, Damian was back on his feet and was as strong as ever, so they were utterly shocked.
âUncle Rick, am I qualified enough to be the heir now?â Damian said sarcastically.
âWell,â Rick was rendered speechless and paled at his words.
He only dared to challenge Patrick because he wanted to use Damianâs condition as an excuse to denounce him as the heir, so that Eugene could replace him. However, Damianâs legs were cured and their scheme was completely ruined.
