Semua Bab The Ex-Husband's Revenge: Bab 1971 - Bab 1980

"You bastard Joel! I never thought it would turn out to be you Hiltons who were behind this all along!" Alan was infuriated by this and immediately turned to shoot Joel and the rest of the Hiltons a murderous glare. "Um," Joel balked at this. He never once thought that Gordon would use his last remaining breath to betray him! Not only that, but he only ordered Gordon to attack Iris and Snow—never once did he instruct him to poison Darius, so it came as an even bigger shock when Gordon decided to place all the blame on him for something he never did! Joel wanted nothing more than to reach out and kill Gordon himself! "Elder Hughes, Gordon was the one who committed this crime, and this has nothing to do with us Hiltons at all! He's just trying to shift the blame onto someone else and slander us Hughes in the process, so please don't take his words seriously!" Joel stammered. Gordon did not have any evidence to back himself up, so of course he would never admit to this wrongdoin

"What's going on here, Sebastian? What happened?" Devon could not help asking as he glanced around him at Alan and Angus, whose faces meant business. Sebastian already explained everything to him before coming over to Scammell Mansion to provide backup, so it did not take long for Devon to realize the significance of defeating Leon. After all, Leon was not only the president of Elegante Group, but Cynthion Group as well, and as long as the Hiltons could find some way to get rid of him, not only would they successfully have taken down their biggest competitor, but they would also be able to take Cynthion Group as their own! Devon was a wise businessman who understood the potential of this opportunity, and so he, like his son and grandson, was eager to carry this out. Unfortunately, with the Thompsons behind Leon's back, their task got significantly more difficult, and so he sent Sebastian and the rest of the Hiltons along to defeat Leon first, whereas he would stay back and ass

"Alright then, you twat! You asked for this! Since you have a death wish, I'll gladly help you fulfill it! Guards, seize him, and make sure he's alive—I'm going to torture him to death!" Devon shouted. Then, without another word, he gestured for his men to charge. He knew full well that Leon would have the alchemical pills' recipes with him, along with most of Cynthion Group's trade secrets, and so the only way he could get his hands on them as if he seized Leon alive! He was not at all concerned whether Leon would willingly hand over this information—knowing that Iris was his girlfriend, who also happened to be a distant relative of the Scammells, he was certain that by using her or the rest of the Scammells against him would surely frighten him into spilling all his secrets! "Who dares touch him will feel my fiery wrath!" Angus could not stand by and watch idly while the Hiltons attacked Leon. He took charge and led his warriors, which included three Almighty Warriors, into ba

"How's this then, Angus, Old Hughes? Did you change your mind yet about us winning?" Devon snickered. He placed his hands behind his back in a stance of triumph, as though he already secured his victory! However, the reality was not too far off from his expectations; to triumph over the Thompsons, he summoned every last one of his guards, especially those at the Almighty State or Semi-Almighty State, to come with him, leaving only Declan, his second-in-command, to hold down the fort at home. Whereas the Hughes and the Thompsons, on the other hand, came unprepared and possibly brought only four or five Almighty Warriors along at most! There was no way they could match up against the Hiltons at all! "You—" Both Angus and Alan's faces sank at this realization. Just as Devon predicted, Angus brought only three warriors at the Initial Almighty State with him, whereas Alan, who arrived in an even greater hurry, managed to summon only two! They had only five Almighty Warriors in to

"What an arrogant little twat! I can't believe you dare to talk to me like that even in the face of death! I guess you have gotten tired of living, haven't you?" Devon was even more outraged to hear this. "Shut up, old hag! Come at me with everything you have—I'd like to see you try!" Leon replied coldly, his tone full of contempt. "Very well then! You asked for it, you twat! I'll let you pay the price for looking down on the Hiltons like this!" Devon was irate. Then, he and Declan successfully evaded Alan's attacks and leaped into the air, landing lightly on their feet in front of Leon! The rest of the Hiltons, like Devon, were equally outraged by Leon's cockiness. The three Initial Almighty Warriors sped right past Sixth-Uncle Thompson and the rest of the martial artists' defense, and darted straight toward Leon! In a split second, Leon became the target of everyone's attention! "Oh no. there's no way he'll get out of this alive!" the color drained from Angus and Alan's fa
