Chapter 437
Leon spat out a mouthful of blood as he was sent flying. He slammed on the ground, and the bottles of
Energy Nurturing Pills in his hand scattered everywhere.
“Dad, you-”
Iris’s heart ached when she saw Leon spitting out blood from Gilbert’s strike.
For a moment, she almost failed to stop herself from rushing over to look at Leon’s injuries. However,
she remembered that Leon was just a liar that used her.
In the end, she pushed back the pain in her heart, ignoring Leon.
Leon felt a chill in his heart. He was fine with taking Gilbert’s blow like that, but Iris’s indifference hurt
him
even more.

again in the future, don’t blame me for not showing you any mercy!” Gilbert warned coldly.
It was a casual strike from him earlier. If he was serious, Leon would have been crippled, if not dead!
“Cough!”
“So you still remember that I’ve saved Elder Young before! Mister Young, Elder Young, I’ve always
been sincere toward the Youngs. I’ve never thought about harming your family before, and I’ve never
done anything wrong to your family. For your sake, I even prepared four hundred first–grade Energy
Nurturing Pills. I’ve spared no effort. Is that how you’re going to treat me?” Leon smiled sadly.
“Don’t make yourself sound so great! You know what you did!” Gilbert said coldly.
“Just because of some speculation without any evidence, you decided that I was the mastermind
behind kidnapping Iris? What a joke!” Leon said angrily,
It was obvious how he would feel being accused of something he did not do like that.
“It doesn’t matter if I have any evidence. In the end, your intentions aren’t pure. You did it to yourself!”
Gilbert’s expression was dark.
This whole thing was just based on his speculations. He did lack evidence, but his attitude was still
firm.
Leon knew very well that Gilbert was already sure that he was the person behind the kidnapping.
Nothing Leon said would be useful.
“Iris, are you going to break up with me? I understand if they don’t believe you, but even you?” Leon
looked at Iris, still hopeful.
“Leon, is there any meaning to saying all of that now, when things are already at this stage?” Iris bit her
lips
and said.
Even if she did not answer it clearly, it was obvious she did not trust Leon.

explain?
“Of course there is! Iris, just think about it. Ever since I entered the company, I’ve worked for you with
all my
might. When have I ever schemed for anything? Elder Young and your father might not know me well,
but you should understand me very well. Isn’t there meant to be trust between a couple? Please, Iris,
can you just believe me unconditionally this one time?” Leon pleaded. He looked very humble at that
moment.
“I-”
Iris felt her heart skip a bit. She could not help but think about how much Leon did for the company,
whether it was the cooperation with the Wick Group or the development of the new products. Leon was
behind all of it.
