The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 33
Lily trembled uncontrobly, for she knew that Joseph held a high position in thepany. Even if she
told the truth, the most Ariel could do to Joseph was reprimand him, and it was not like any severe
action would be taken against him.
Things would only go south from then on because Joseph would almost certainly exercise his authority
to fire her!
Lily began to hesitate when she thought about her sick mother on the hospital bed, her younger
brother’s tuition fees, and the high hopes all her rtives ced on her.
“Go on. Tell me,” Ariel urged.
“I… Mister Conrad and I were just discussing work in the office. He didn’t do anything inappropriate…”
It was challenging for Lily to say that. She lowered her head the entire time and did not dare to look at
Leon.
Despite her eternal gratitude to Leon for saving her, the burden of being fired was too heavy a
consequence for her to bear. There was nothing else she could do other than apologize to Leon in her
heart.
“Huh?”
Her statement was like a bolt from the blue for Leon and his smile instantly disappeared.
He could never imagine that Lily would be the one to dismiss his kind gesture even though he risked it
all just to save her!
“You heard that, didn’t you, Miss Summers? He’s making wild usations against me!”
Joseph smiled smugly.
“This was all your doing then, Leon! Iri- Ahem, thepany has rules and regtions that you must
comply with. It’s not a ce where you can just do whatever you want!” Ariel chided.
Iris just reminded Leon to do his job well, yet it took him no time to rely on Iris’s backing to oppress
other people!
‘We can’t just let this go on. If worsees to worst and he gets fired, I’ll just take him in and raise him
myself,’ Ariel thought.
“That’s not what happened, Miss Summers. Please let me expl-“Leon nced angrily at Lily and felt a
sour twinge in his heart.
What Lily gave him that day was a very vivid lesson that forced him to realize the cruel reality of
society!
“Enough, I don’t want to hear your arguments!” Ariel interrupted Leon’s words with a wave of her hand
and did not take kindly to his vile conduct.
“Now that the truth hase to light, it’s clear that Leon
“This was all just a minor misunderstanding. Leon will apologize to you and the matter will be put to
rest!” Ariel said curtly.
Leon was yet to answer when Joseph expressed his unhappiness. “Just an apology? That’s not
enough! He hit me and injured me! And you’re just going to overlook all that as long as he apologizes
to me? I won’t ept it!”
Ariel nced intently at Joseph. “What do you want then?

“I want him fired and handed over to the police!” Joseph demanded.
“Mister Conrad, while there’s no denying that you’re injured, Leon’s hand is injured too. This situation
went out of control, and you-as the head of the president’s department—are responsible to some
extent as well. I’ll ask Leon to apologize, so just ept his apology for my sake. Shake hands with him,
make peace, and just let bygones be bygones! As for your injury and medical expenses, thepany
will bear the full cost.”
Ariel frowned and said in a negotiating tone.
She knew that Leon was Iris’s savior, so even if it was all Leon’s fault, Iris would never fire him, much
less agree to
hand him over to the police!
Besides, Leon was not all to me for what happened, because Joseph indisputably instructed the
security
guards to beat Leon up.

Leon only wounded them out of self-defense.
With the situationing to a head, both parties were equally responsible.
Ariel wanted to mediate the situation to downy the whole issue and resolve it quickly.
By then, Ariel gradually calmed down and stopped acting on impulse.
