The Ex-Husband's Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 20
"That's right," Leon nodded earnestly.
Leon was not very educated, and his abilities when it
came to working were quite average as well. It would not be easy for him to find a good job quickly.
If Elder Young could get him a stable job, it would be a lot of help for him.
"Leon, forgive me for being straightforward, but with
your amazing medical skills, surely it wouldn't be hard
for you to become a famous doctor like Graham? Why would you want a regular job?!" Elder Young said
curiously.
With the skills that Leon showed earlier, many rich and
powerful people would be willing to deal with Leon.
Whether it was money, power, or fame, Leon would be able to get it easily.
Why would he need a job?
"That...
"Elder Young, I won't lie. I never learned any medical skills before, nor do I have any qualifications as a doctor.
"The pressure point technique I used to treat you just now was just something I inherited from my ancestors. I
merely learned a little of it. The fact that I managed to
cure your illness was complete luck," Leon laughed awkwardly.
It was true that he was ignorant when it came to medical skills, but the skills that the pendant passed to him were peerless. It was just a pity he did not know that.
"So that's what happened!" Elder Young was shocked.
The assistant beside him had a look of realization on his
face as well.
He wondered how someone whose medical skills were
better than Graham's could be relatively unknown in
Springfield City.
So Leon was just lucky!
Iris was the one who knew about Leon the most. She knew that Leon was not well-versed in medicine at all. Leon was just a kind but perverted man.
"No matter what, you still saved Iris and me. That's an indisputable fact!"
Elder Young let out a laugh before he motioned for the housekeeper to take out a bank card, "There's one and a half million dollars in there. It's not much, but it's just my way of repaying you a little. You have to accept it!"
"There's no need, I can't..." Leon was shocked. He hurriedly raised his hands to refuse.
To him, 1.5 million dollars was an astronomical number. It was a sum he could not even think about.
Iris took the card and pushed it into Leon's hands. She smiled and Leon, “Leon, you have nothing on you at the moment. Money's exactly what you need. Just take it!
"As for a job, I'll arrange for a suitable position for you in my company. Treat it as repayment for you saving my life.
"A-alright then. Thank you," Leon smiled bitterly. He
was chased out of the Mansons without a penny to his
name. He was completely broke. He did not even have the minimum amount needed to survive, so he did need
money.
"Gilbert, as for the two kidnappers who took Iris, how are your investigations going? Is it a regular kidnapping, or is there someone behind all this?" Elder Young asked. "Those two are already dead. They didn't leave behind
any clues. I used everything at our disposal, but I couldn't
find any leads. I think it might just be a regular kidnapping," Gilbert explained simply.
After those two thugs kidnapped Iris, it seemed like they
planned on transferring money away with Iris' phone
before killing her to silence any witnesses.
On the surface, their motive was robbery.
However, it was strange that the two thugs did not demand a huge ransom from the Youngs with Iris as a hostage. That made it seem like it was not purely for
money.
Yet, those thugs might have just been regular robbers.
After robbing Iris, they might have wanted to kill her to avoid leaving any clues behind.
Also, if they used Iris to demand a ransom from the
Youngs, it was very possible that the police would have
been alerted!
"That better be the case. If there's someone behind all
this, I'll make sure he dies horribly!" Elder Young had a vicious glint in his eyes.
The Youngs were very powerful. It was normal for any business rivals or enemies to have a target on Iris' head.
Elder Young's intuition told him that it was not a regular
kidnapping, but he had no evidence, so he could not be
certain.
