Read The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky Chapter 209 – Seeing as everyone was speechless,
Ashwin had no choice but to speak up. “Miss Young, we trust Miss Summers’s ability beyond a shadow
of a doubt, but-”
Iris, however, interrupted him before he could say anything, “I don’t want to hear any buts! It was Leon
who secured the contract with the Wick Group, so it stands to reason that this cooperation ought to be
entrusted to him! The bottom line is this: I’ve already made up my mind, and all discussion about this
matter is to end. here!” Iris slammed the table and made a final decision.
“I… Alright.” Ashwin’s expression soured and he slumped back somewhat embarrassedly.
He initially planned to join hands with several executives to put pressure on Leon and attempt to force
Leon into relinquishing that authority. Little did he expect that Iris would value Leon so much more than
he imagined, even to the extent of giving it her all to defend Leon and waste all of Ashwin’s efforts.

the research and development department. George was a middle–aged man in his 50s with a medium–
fat build. He looked like he was the kind of guy who grew accustomed to living the high life.
“Miss Young, there’s one more thing I’d like to discuss.” George stood up, with his belly jutting out as a
result.
“Yes, Mister Proctor. What is it?” Iris asked.
“Miss Young, I have no objection over your decision to let Mister Wolf have full authority over the
cooperation with the Wick Group. However, nothing good can be done in absence of rules and
regulations. I heard that Mister Wolf went to the factory and intervened with the production and our
department’s hard work under the guise of supplying the products. This behavior is unethical! You need
to stand up for the R- and–D department’s people, Miss Young!” George complained. He blinked his
small eyes as if he suffered. the worst humiliation.
“About that…” A frown appeared on Iris’s beautiful face. She knew about Leon’s plan to increase the
refining efficiency and develop cosmeceuticals, and his involvement in those matters which are not within his responsibility could be construed as exceeding his authority. Things would have been all fine
and dandy if the people in the research and development department turned a blind eye to it, but alas,
the director decided to complain about it to her.
As a result, Iris was put in a tight spot.
Leon stood up and said, “Mister Proctor, I know that my behavior might’ve been inappropriate, and I
sincerely apologize to everyone in the R–and–D department. However, we’re all working for the same
company, and I believe the research and development of cosmeceuticals are intrinsically linked to the
company’s benefits. All in all, there doesn’t seem to be any conflict considering that our goals are at the
same.”
“What do you mean there’s no conflict?” George shot back, “First of all, you’re shouldering a heavy
responsibility as the person in charge of the cooperation with the Wick Group. There are already a lot

an act amounts to a dereliction of duty!”
“Secondly,” George added, “meddling in the affairs of the R–and–D department is no different from

questioning our capabilities. You’re implying that people in our department are incompetent! These two
reasons should be enough!” George sneered.
The Elegante Group’s research and development department was where the employees were paid the
best despite their lesser burdens, which led to much criticism from the other departments. If Leon took
over their duties, then what use would they be? More importantly, if Leon achieved what their
department has never been able to do, the entire department would become the laughing stock of the
entire company!
He was never going to allow that to happen!
Ariel was not pleased to hear that. “I don’t agree with your statement, Mister Proctor! If I remember
correctly, Miss Young approved a significant amount of research and development funding as early as
half a year ago, all for your department to develop cosmeceuticals.”
