The Ex Husbands Revenge

When a wife cheats on their husband and gets pregnant with another man's child, one would expect the husband to kick her out of the home and ask for a divorce. Oddly enough, it was the complete opposite for 26-year-old Leon Wolf. As if being treated like a slave by his in-laws was not bad enough, he was thrown out on the street by his wife and her family after she proudly declared to him that she got pregnant with someone else's baby! Distraught and resentful, Leon found himself wandering all the way to the cemetery, where he chanced upon the attempted assassination of a beautiful woman. In his bid to save her, Leon received a fatal stab wound on his chest and dragged the thug with him into a nearby river to drown together… All signs pointed to Leon's death, for he never surfaced again even though the distressed woman had waited for hours. Believing he had passed on to the afterlife, she left, but not before calling out to the river, "My name is Iris Young. Come and see me sometime…" A wisp of consciousness manifested underwater… 'Iris… What a beautiful name…'

The Ex-Husband’s Revenge Chapter 59

There was a burst of warm applause, and the buzzing atmosphere was infectious enough that every single onlooker followed along and gave their applause . Aside from being startled by Leon's superb medical skills, they were also very deeply moved by Leon's valiant efforts to save a dying man.

"It was the right thing to do…" Leon smiled a little embarrassedly. All he did was try his best. He did not even remotely expect to get such high praise and commendation from everyone.

"He must be exhausted. Does anyone have water?" Bernard asked the crowd.

"I do…"

A young woman stepped forth and handed over an unopened bottle of mineral water.

Jenson knew that Leon was completely drained of strength, so he unscrewed the bottle cap and gave it to Leon.

"Gulp… Gulp…" Leon drank half the bottle in one breath, closed his eyes, and galvanized what remaining spiritual

energy in his body to silently start recalibrating his

breathing.

After calibrating it for some time, Leon's pale complexion gradually improved. His body finally recovered some strength and he was able to stand back up.

"Young man, my name is Bernard Wick, and this is my grandson Jenson Wick. May I ask for your name, please?" Bernard asked with a smile.

Leon smiled in return. "My name's Leon."

"Thank you for saving my life, Leon. Your kind gesture is something that I'll remember forever."

Bernard thanked him again and said, "I'd like to ask you for some advice if that's alright."

"Of course. Ask away."

"You see, I've had this health issue for several years now. I've consulted lots of famous doctors over the years, and they all said that I have coronary heart disease, which is something that happens naturally due to aging and can never be completely cured."

"I'd like to ask if you happen to have a better and more effective treatment?"

Bernard asked expectantly.

That health issue plagued him for many years and caused no shortage of inconvenience to his life.

Though he never felt hopeful about being cured one day, that tiny sliver of hope was rekindled after he

experienced Leon's superb medical skills on himself.

After all, it was much better than that of a famous doctor

like Hilmar.

Leon, with his near–miraculous ability, might just have

the solution to cure it.

"What you have isn't coronary heart disease…" Leon

shook his head.

"What? It's not?"

Bernard was baffled and wondered if he heard it wrongly.

"Nonsense! Elder Wick's illness is coronary heart disease. Plenty of well–known doctors have given such a

diagnosis, and now you're insinuating that it's all a lie?" Hilmar retorted unhappily.

That entire sequence of events involving Bernard made

Hilmar realize that Leon's medical skills were a cut better

than his.

Unfortunately, he was always biased against alternative medicine, and he had a hard time accepting it even

though he knew that Leon's medical skills surpassed him!

Hilmar's remarks nearly incited outrage from all the

onlookers. They all looked at him coldly as if staring at a clown.

Leon's medical ability was clear for all to see, and he was many times more brilliant than Hilmar!

That Hilmar even dared to question Leon's skills would only cause public opinion against him to worsen!

Who in the right mind would still smile and fawn over Hilmar?

Leon did not take offense to Hilmar and explained with a smile, "If my observations are correct, Elder Wick, you probably had myocarditis about five years ago, right?"

"That's right. How'd you know?" Bernard was surprised.

Hilmar, on the other hand, was even more shocked. As Bernard's doctor, he knew that Bernard suffered

myocarditis five years ago.

If Leon could discern an illness Bernard suffered five

years ago through his medical skills, then there was no

argument that his ability was mind–blowingly phenomenal!

'Is alternative medicine that amazing?' Hilmar's face

turned ashen, then red. It was the first time he ever

questioned his medical skills, and he even began to doubt

whether his decision to study modern medicine was the

correct one!
