The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 1624
“Dad, Iris loves Leon and Leon has helped us so much! We can’t turn our backs on them!” Damian hurried
over.
He overheard the conversation between Charlie and Patrick when he was walking in, and he knew that the
Scammells would definitely profit from pledging loyalty to the Southern Boss, so he was worried that Patrick would
agree to the marriage proposal for the greater good.
“Yeah, you are right! We can’t turn our backs on people who helped us before!” Patrick hesitated for a moment

He could not force love, and if Iris decided to leave Leon because he saw other women, Patrick would be more than
happy to see it happen.
However, Iris and Leon loved one another, and Leon had helped the Scammells in the past; breaking them apart for
the family’s gain would make the Scammells ungrateful and despicable people, and Patrick could not bring himself
to do it.
“Think twice, Elder Scammell! It’s an honor that the Southern Boss is willing to recruit you! If you miss this chance,
you won’t get this offer again!” Charlie’s expression darkened.
“I’m sorry, Mister Martell, but a marriage should not be taken lightly! Iris is my granddaughter. So long as she is not
willing to accept the proposal, I will never trade her happiness for my own gains! Please let the Southern Boss know
that we are grateful for his offering…” Patrick smiled apologetically but rejected the proposal once again with
determination.
As the head of his family, it was his duty to act in ways that benefit the family, but he would never force his
descendants into marriages, or he would have never married his daughter to Gilbert.
“Very well! If that’s the case, I will be leaving now!” Enraged, Charlie scoffed and left with the Angel’s Fruit.
He had only paid Patrick a visit to test how he felt about the Southern Boss’s invitation. Since Patrick and Damian
had rejected it, Charlie realized that he could only extend the invitation to the second bloodline instead. Once
Patrick and Damian were taken out of the picture by the second bloodline, Iris would have no one to support her,

Meanwhile, in the house where the Scammells‘ second bloodline resided, Charlie met with Rick, Eugene, and Nigel
in the living room, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, they took their seats.
“Mister Martell, why are you here?” Rick cut to the chase.
“Elder Scammell, to tell you the truth, I’m here on behalf of the Southern Boss to recruit the second bloodline of
the Scammells!” Charlie said calmly.
“Recruit us? What?”
The three were shocked and exchanged confused looks amongst themselves.
They were only the second bloodline of their family with limited power; even if the Southern Boss wanted to
recruit the Scammells, he should have gone to the first bloodline instead.
