Chapter 962
The Ex-Husband's Revenge
âIsnât that normal?!â Gilbert said unhappily.
Ever since Leon took Elegante back again, he did not like Leon at all. There was no way he would be nice to Leon.
If Iris did not love Leon, he would have already chased Leon away!
âBut-â
Leon was still hesitant.
He did not think that anyone from the Youngs would care about their own blood relations.
Otherwise, Melvin, Jonah and the others would not just have let Daisy force Gilbert and Iris out just like that!
âThereâs nothing to doubt! What? Do you think Jonah will harm Iris and me?â Gilbert mocked.
Blood was thicker than water. He was Jonahâs relative. There was no way Jonah would harm him!
Leon was just being suspicious for no reason!
âThatâs not necessarily true! Mister Young, it doesnât hurt to be careful! I just feel like we should proceed with caution with this,â Leon advised.
âA load of nonsense! Leon, Iâm about to save Elder Young, but youâre deliberately being difficult about the whole thing. Youâre even trying to throw a wedge between Jonah and I. What are you trying to do?â
Gilbert said angrily.
âIâm not-â
âMister Young, Iâm just worried for you and Irisâ¦I feel like we should think about this,â Leon said in a hurry, but he was interrupted by Gilbert.
âEnough, I donât want to hear anymore! Leon, donât think I donât know what youâre thinking. You still hate my father because he broke you and Iris up before! You must not want me saving my father, so youâre trying to figure out a way to stop it. Isnât that right?â Gilbert sneered, looking like he was already through Leonâs ploy.
âNo, thatâs not what Iâm trying to do,â Leon smiled bitterly.
He could tell that this matter did not seem as simple as it did on the surface. He wanted to stop them, but Gilbert refused to listen. He started to feel helpless.
âLeon, donât worry. Itâs not like what my father is saying doesnât make sense. Even if my uncle wonât help us sincerely, thereâs no way heâll harm us! The Youngs are one of the four great families no matter what. They are incredibly concerned with their own reputation and image. Thereâs no way theyâll do anything so despicable!â Iris said.
The last time, she and Gilbert were kicked out of the family because Daisy forced it. It had nothing to do with Melvin, Jonah and the others.
Even though Iris and Gilbert were no longer part of the Youngs, they were still related by blood. No matter how much the Youngs prioritized their profits, they would not try to harm Iris and Gilbert.
Otherwise, they would definitely be treated with disdain by all the other major powers of Springfield City!
Furthermore, Iris and Gilbert already lost everything. They were worth nothing, so what was the point of the Youngs targeting them?
It was impossible!
Leon found himself at a loss for words.
He knew that Iris was right. No matter how you looked at it, the Youngs had no reason to harm Iris and Gilbert.
He was probably just overthinking it!
âFine then.â
âIris, since you insist on going there, Iâll go with you two,â Leon said after some hesitation, still unable to stop himself from worrying about Iris.
