The Ex-Husband's Revenge Chapter 1386
A gigantic stage was set up in the center of the courtyard, flanked by red curtains. A banner with the number 80 on it was draped across the stage with golden streamers and flowers. A red carpet ran down the center toward the stage flanked by rows of beautiful bouquets and floral arrangements that made the entire set-up look even more luxurious. Rows and rows of teakwood chairs were arranged in front of the stage, covered by red drapes with golden embroidery of the number 80 across their backs. The entire place was glamorous and even more elegant than ever! By the time Leon and the rest arrived, the entire place was already packed with guests. Not only after they arrived, but Patrick also emerged from backstage, grinning from ear to ear as he was accompanied onstage by Amy and the rest of the elders. The host got onstage and declared, "Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the eightieth birthday party of Mister Patrick Scammell here. Let us give a round of applause to the birthd

After that, it was the second generation's turn, which included Penny, Iris, and Leon. "Grandpa, Andy, and I would like to gift you this painting in the symbolism of great health and longevity," Penny and Andy offered their gifts. Soon, it was Iris and Leon's turn. "Grandpa, Leon, and I have prepared a priceless jadeite statue for your birthday. We hope that it will bring you a lifetime of health and prosperity," Iris said as she and Leon opened the gift box and handed the exquisite statue to Patrick. "A jadeite statue?" the color drained from Nigel's face when he saw this. Coincidentally, he also prepared the same thing as his grandfather's birthday present, but unfortunately, his was far smaller in size compared to Leon's. Now that Leon already offered this gift, it would be humiliating if he did the same, with a smaller one, no less! "Rats! Did that bastard do this on purpose?" Nigel was fuming at this. He met Leon for the first time when he and Iris came to meet t

"Nigel, how dare you accuse my gift of being a cheap, man-made jadeite? Don't say anything if you don't know the whole truth!" Leon shot Nigel a displeased look. "Well, you know full well whether I'm telling the truth or not! Let me show you what a pure jadeite looks like!" Nigel sneered as he opened his gift box and took out his jadeite statue. Although the jadeite statue Nigel prepared was less than half the size of Leon's, it was clear and transparent with no added patterns to it at all—one could tell that it was a piece of stone of the highest utmost clarity!"This is a cream-clear jadeite!""Yes, you're right. The clarity seems to be of top-notch quality, and I might go as far as to say this is ice-clear jadeite! I'm certain this must cost at least millions of dollars!"The audience gasped in awe at this. Cream-clear jadeites were much more common than Four-Colored ones, and it was evident that the jadeite Nigel prepared was certainly of the highest possible quality!"Di

"Don't listen to Nigel's nonsense, Uncle Damian! This is a piece of valuable Four-Colored Jadeite, not some counterfeit stone like what he claims," Leon explained. "Four-Colored Jadeite?" "This jadeite statue does indeed have four different colors—could this indeed be the Four-Colored Jadeite that represents happiness, wealth, and longevity?" The audience was all shocked to hear this, exchanging glances of uncertainty and doubt. Although any jadeite that possessed more than three colors was hard to come by, because the Four-Colored Jadeite had such a meaningful symbolism to it, many of the rich and powerful heard a thing or two about this remarkable stone! However, since they were not professional jewelers after all, none of them could tell whether the jadeite statue before them was indeed the priceless Four-Colored Jadeite or just a cheap dupe! "What nonsense is this? Any priceless jadeite that has three or more colors would be made into small accessories, and I've never o

"Forty-three million dollars?" "This statue is worth forty-three million? That's absurd!" The audience was utterly stunned to learn of the jadeite statue's worth. Although they all hailed from rich and powerful families, 43 million was still not a small number, and they could not believe how generous Leon was to turn down an offer of 43 million dollars just to use this jadeite for Patrick's birthday! None of them ever heard of such generous behavior in their lives, not even amongst the major families! "Splendid, absolutely splendid!" Patrick burst into laughter as all his disapproval toward Leon dissipated with this discovery. Not only was he satisfied with the priceless gift Leon gave him, but he was also happy because Leon's display of generosity reflected well on him. Elders like him placed utmost importance on their egos, and Leon successfully managed to make him and the rest of the Scammells look good in front of everyone! One could only imagine his joy! "How could

"Seriously? That is great! Willie Liberton had it coming!" Damian was overjoyed.The Libertons were their enemies and he was over the moon after learning that Leon defeated Willie."That's music to my ear! You did well, Leon!" Patrick burst out laughing.Ever since Damian suffered from paralysis, Eugene tried to take control of the family and the internal fight among the Scammells took a toll on their business.The Libertons took the opportunity to act and profited from the Scammells' crisis, which was extremely frustrating to the Scammells, but there was nothing they could do to stop the Libertons; the fact that Leon toyed with one of the most brilliant men in the younger generation of the Libertons avenged the Scammells in a way.Patrick was thrilled.He did not know that Leon did more than toy with Willie; he injured Willie and his father in Medicare Pharmaceutical, causing them to run out of fear.If they did not escape in time, all Libertons at the scene would have been sev

"What's the meaning of this, Eugene?" Patrick's expression darkened.It was his eightieth birthday today and there were a lot of influential figures among the guests.As the leader of the Scammells, his decision was final, yet Eugene challenged his authority in public; it was only natural that Patrick was upset."Elder, the pharmaceutical firms have always been under the control of the second bloodline. Nigel and I have been doing a great job managing them throughout the years. Don't you think it's a bit inappropriate for you to sell one of them to someone else?" Eugene said calmly."So what if you have been managing the firms? Leon's going to be my grandson-in-law and he's considered a part of the family now, so he isn't an outsider! Besides, I'm selling the firm to him, not giving it to him for free! How is it inappropriate?" Patrick retorted coldly."Be that as it may, our pharmaceutical firms are becoming increasingly profitable with a steady profit of around 40 million each y
The Ex-Husband's Revenge Chapter 1393
"Leon, are you serious?" Patrick asked excitedly.If the Scammells could sell one pharmaceutical firm in exchange for over 130 million annual profits, it would only be beneficial to the family."Of course!" Leon nodded.He needed to produce alchemical pills and therefore required an enormous supply of herbs. Once he settled down in the company, it would even be possible for him to repay the Scammells with billions of returns."Eugene, did you hear him? What else do you have to say for yourself?" Patrick turned to stare at Eugene pointedly."Well," Eugene was rendered speechless.He wanted to stop Patrick from selling the firm to Leon with the excuse that it would affect the business profit. However, Leon promised to offer 130 million in profit each year in return, which countered the problem he highlighted, so he was struggling to find his words at the moment. "Those are just words, Elder! Leon can make all the promises he wants, but who can guarantee that he can deliver his pr
