The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 475
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
Ariel gaped at this. She initially wanted to help Leon win back Irisâs heart out of kindness, but she never thought Leon would reject her outright!
âWhat happened in the past should stay in the past. Since she no longer trusts me, thereâs no point in
me begging her to change her mind. The fact that she has mistrusted me once means that there likely
will be a second, third, and God knows how many times.
âEven if you helped me win her back this time, what will happen in the future? What if she still chooses to mistrust me if something else happens down the line? Am I supposed to beg for her to change her mind again and again?â Leon said solemnly.
He could not help recalling the term he came across on the internet recentlyâ
the word, simp, would perfectly describe someone like him if he were to beg for Irisâs forgiveness over
and over.
Besides, Iris was not the only one who mistrusted him, even Elder Young and Gilbert were the same.
If he were to put down his ego and beg for Iris to take him back, this would not change the rest of her fa milyâs minds. If they were to get back together, he would have to suffer disrespect and humiliation from
Iris and the rest of her family!
Leon was not willing to give up the last ounce of his dignity. The only thing he could do now embraced
his work and prove himself worthy instead of begging Iris to take pity on him.
âWhat are you going to do from now on? Are you giving up on Iris?â Arielâs heart leaped into her throat.
She was having conflicted feelingsâ
on the one hand, she hoped that Leon and Iris would be able to reconcile, yet on the other hand, she w as secretly longing for Leon to give up on Iris so she would have a chance.
âI donât know, but I guess Iâll just take things a step at a time. If an opportunity arises, Iâll try to win back
her heart, but if not, I guess we were never meant to be,â Leon replied, sighing.
The truth was, he wanted to get Iris back again once he proved himself worthy of her love, but he was
worried that it would be too late by then!
âWell, Iâm glad youâre thinking sensibly. I hope you wonât let this small obstacle hinder your path to succ ess, but most importantly, you shouldnât drink so much. I donât want to see you so miserable.â Ariel tried to console Leon as best as she could, thinking that he drank so much out of misery over his heartbreak.
âDonât worry. I promise Iâll get back on my feet again,â Leon replied, smiling.
He knew that Ariel was worried about him and could not help feeling touched by what a great friend she was.
The two of them continued chatting over dinner until eventually, they finished their food and left the restaurant.
After parting ways with Ariel, Leon suddenly received a call from Louisa. âHey, Leon, I heard about your breakup with my cousin. I donât understand what got into herâhow can she possibly be swayed by my grandfather and uncle into thinking you were the one who masterminded her kidnapping and is d ating her only for her money?
âDonât worry, I believe youâI know youâd never do anything like this!â Louisa declared rather indignantly.
âThank you for trusting me, Louisa.â Leon was a little surprised by this.
After being injured by Gilbert, being betrayed by the Youngs, and finally being doubted by the woman he Thankfully, there were still sensible people within the family, and Louisaâs trust in him sent a surge of wa However, he still could not help feeling disheartened by the fact that Iris did not trust him, and instead Louisa and Ariel both did.
âWhere are you now, Leon? Why donât you come over, and Iâll help you persuade my cousin to give you
