The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 84
Leon was in a very somber mood after receiving that excruciatingly painful stomp from Ariel earlier, so
one would naturally expect him to be pissed at Michael and shrug the man off before walking away.
“Don’t act smug, kid! Just wait! This doesn’t end here!” Michael fumed as he watched Leon’s rear figure
walking further and further away.
Michael could not accept that a bumpkin like Leon led the race to win Ariel’s heart, especially since the
former wooed her for the greater part of a year only to be rebuffed!
A high–level meeting was held in the conference room that afternoon, which was already full of people
when Leon arrived with Gracie. Almost everyone from the company’s top brass where there, including
sales director Michael.
Michael never expected that Leon would be eligible to participate in the meeting, so from time t time, he
shot hostile glances in Leon’s direction.

conference room with Iris.
The atmosphere turned silent as soon as Iris showed up.
Iris and Ariel went to the main seats and sat down, with Gracie and Leon taking up the spots next to Iris.
Gracie, being the president’s secretary, was responsible for recording the meeting minutes and various
other matters, making her an indispensable part of any meeting involving the president.
Leon, on the other hand, was practically useless since he did not understand anything at all.
“Let me give a short introduction. This is Leon Wolf. He’s a newly–recruited secretary for the president’s
department!”
Iris motioned for Leon to stand up and introduced him to everyone.
Her direction for Leon was to train him into becoming the president’s assistant in the future. To that end,
allowing Leon to gain more experience with the company’s top management would only bode well for his
progress.
“This Mister Wolf here is new to our company. It seems a little inappropriate to ask
him to come to a high–level meeting, Miss Young.” Michael was first to question her decision because he
wanted to use that as a means to thoroughly humiliate Leon.
“Absolutely. He’s a newcomer who neither has the professional know–how nor the capability to be useful.
Isn’t it redundant to let him participate in the meeting?”
“I agree. This meeting involves business secrets, so it’s better to be on the safe side…
The top–level executives were very confused because they thought that Leon was not qualified to
participate in such high–level meetings after only joining the company recently.
“Whether or not he has the professional know–not is immaterial. I want him to participate in the meeting!
Am I not allowed to do that?” Iris glanced across the room, and everyone who was in her line of sight
immediately knew their place and closed their mouths.
“Any other objections, Mister Duvall?” Iris’s gaze finally settled on Michael.
“None, Miss Young…” Michael smiled awkwardly. He had plenty of personal objections toward Leon but

“Let’s start the meeting then,” Iris proceeded with her short opening remark, “sales are the key economic
lifeline for a company because it is directly related to our profits as well as our prospects for future
development. I’m sure everyone is well aware of how important it is. The reason we are holding this
meeting today is to discuss our sales cooperation. Go ahead and explain the details to everyone, Miss
Summers.”
Iris glanced at Ariel, who nodded in response and connected her laptop to the projector, and the big
screen in front of the conference room displayed extensive technical data and market analysis.
“Nearly eighty percent of the market share in Springfield City’s sales channels is currently controlled by
three major distributors. Out of the three, the first–ranked distributor is the Wick Group, which controls
forty–three percent of the market’s sales channels. This isn’t just limited to cosmetics. It includes also
other fields that have considerable influence, such as online marketing and e–commerce, for example!”
