Chapter 1627
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âRo, you came at the right time. Allow me to introduce Snow. Youâve met one another once in the Thompsons Mansion before. This is Iris, my girlfriend. Iris, this is the eldest daughter of the Thompsons, Roanne Thompson,â Leon introduced them with a smile.
âGirlfriend?â Roanne stilled.
After spending time with Leon, she had begun to develop feelings toward Leon and was surprised to find out that Iris was Leonâs girlfriend. Instantly, she found herself stunned.
âHello, Miss Thompson. Itâs a pleasure to meet you,â Iris greeted her gracefully with a smile.
âOh⦠Hello, Iris. Since you are Leonâs girlfriend, you can call me Ro as he does!â Roanne sobered and forced a smile.
Though she liked Leon, it was a complicated combination of emotions that consisted of gratitude and dependency. She was naive with little to no experience in romantic relationships, so she had only seen Leon as a reliable brother like Yuri. Apart from feeling slightly disappointed, she did not feel overly upset about the fact that Leon had a girlfriend.
âYeah. Snow said that you are of unparalleled beauty. I guess she wasnât exaggerating!â Iris said.
âYou are too kind, Iris. I couldnât hold a candle to your beauty. You look like a goddessâ¦â Roanne was pleased by her compliment and had a great impression of Iris.
âAlright. I will make some arrangements for everyoneâs duties! I will be the chairman, Iris will be the president and Snow will be the vice president! Ro, you will be the presidentâs assistant for now. Try to learn from Iris as best as you canâ¦â Leon said.
Just then, Snow interrupted him and said, âHang on! Iâm not an employee of Elegante Group, so I donât want to be vice president!â She rolled her eyes at Leon.
Snow had come to the southern region mainly for a change of scenery. Leon had been occupied with producing alchemical pills, and she was happy to help with certain chores, but she had no intention of working for him.
âWhat do you want, then?â Leon asked.
âMake me the chairmanâs assistant, then! Since you are my godbrother, I can help occasionally, but donât even try to make me your worker!â Snow said.
She knew Leon tended to leave his business at othersâ hands and figured that being his assistant would give her more freedom.
âUm⦠Alright, then.â Leon nodded.
He was a busy man and could not spare much time to manage his business, so having an assistant would help as he could leave important matters in Snowâs hands when necessary.
Ring!
Just then, Irisâs phone started ringing, so she took it out to answer the call.
After the call, Leon asked curiously, âIris, who was it? What happened?â
âSure. Go ahead,â Leon said without hesitation.
With that, Iris left the office and drove toward the Scammell Mansion alone.
âItâs from the Scammells. They said that Grandpa wants me to drop by the mansionâ¦â Iris said.
âSure. Go ahead,â Leon said without hesitation.
With that, Iris left the office and drove toward the Scammell Mansion alone.
