NovelEnglishThe Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 87
As soon as Leon stepped out of the conference room, he took a deep breath, calmed himself down a little, and
answered the phone.
“Hello. Am | speaking to Mister Leon Wolf? This is Bernard Wick speaking. | wonder if you still remember me?”
The first thing Leon heard was a burst of hearty laughter from old Bernard.
“Ah, it's you, Elder Wick. Is there anything | can help you with?”
Leon immediately recalled that Bernard was the old man he treated in the park the previous morning.
“You see, | don’t know how to repay you for saving my life, so | was thinking about treating you to a meal as a
token of my gratitude. When will it be convenient for you?
Bernard asked with a smile.
“It’s fine, Elder Wick. | only did it because | was there. You don’t need to be so courteous,” Leon said
immediately.

“That won't do! You've already refused to accept my payment for your treatment. | won't feel at ease if | don’t
treat you to a meal at least,” Bernard insisted and his tone sounded sincere.
Since Bernard was so adamant, Leon felt that it would be impolite of him to continue refusing. As a result, he
agreed and said, “Sure. I'm still at work now though, but I'll be free after work.”
“Not a problem. Will six o'clock at The Sovereign Hotel do?” Bernard asked.
“Sure.” Having agreed on a time, Leon was about to hang up the phone when he had a sudden realization.
He remembered that Bernard gave him a business card the previous morning, and he seemed to recall reading
the words, Chairman of the Wick Grou, on that card!
“Elder Wick! Please hold on for a moment! There's something I'd like to ask!”
Leon was taken aback. He finally understood why the Wick Group sounded so familiar to him. As it turned out,
Bernard was none other than the Wick Group's
chairman!
It seemed unlikely that a place the size of Springfield City would have two rich families with the sWick
surname!
“Elder Wick, I'd like to know if your Wick Group is the one that’s in charge of the
cosmetics sales channel...” Leon asked rather hesitantly.
“Yes, the sales channels of cosmetics and the regional distribution of several high- end brands are just one of
many businesses under our company. May | know why you're asking this, Mister Wolf?” Bernard asked
suspiciously.
“Well, my company is the Elegante Group, which mainly deals in mid- to high-end cosmetics. Our company was
thinking about cooperating with the Wick Group, so | wonder if-"
Leon was overjoyed to learn of Bernard's true identity and explained the situation briefly to the old man.
“Not a problem! You may prepare the contract and I'll sign it when we meet for dinner tonight.” Bernard
chuckled happily.

“Really? Thank you so much!” Leon was overjoyed.
“No thanks necessary, Mister Wolf. You saved my life, so this contract is the least | can
do! Anyway, we'll talk about it later when we meet tonight.” Bernard said with a chuckle and hung up.
“Awesome! I've found a solution to Iris’s troubles!” Leon was thrilled with the sudden turn of events and hurried
back into the conference room. He could not wait to share the good news with Iris, and he guessed that Iris
would be very happy once she found out!
He pushed open the door of the conference room with a bang and walked straight in.
The sound stunned everyone in the conference room and all turned their attention to
Leon.
They all thought that Leon took the opportunity to leave after making a fool of himself earlier, so it cas a bit
of a surprise that Leon would return.
“You haven't and won't contribute anything to this meeting, Mister Wolf. Why did you even cback here when «
you are of no help whatsoever?”
