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 69

"Go on. Keep cutting," Leon urged calmly.

The staff cut a few more times but all that came out of it was gravel inside and

nothing else.

"Still nothing?"

"That's unlikely!"

"Is it possible that there's not even any low- to mid–grade jadeite inside this rock, not even pea–greens or flower greens?"

The shock that everyone felt was such that they did not even bother to bemoan. Leon's bad luck anymore!

Low- to mid–grade jadeite was the least that such good–quality raw jade stone would usually produce, but nothing of the sort was seen yet. Under such circumstances, he was better off buying a piece of raw jade stone that was extracted from pea–green jade!

Even if he were to find some clear jadeite inside, Leon will still be making a loss–it was only a matter of how much that loss was!

"Just keep cutting."

Leon's heart sank and the calmness that he initially began to slip away.

The staff continued to cut the stone. Dust flew everywhere, but still, there was only gravel inside with no signs of jadeite!

The raw stone was reduced into a polygon that was slightly larger than a palm. It was clear to all that the stone was an ordinary one, and cutting it again would be

pointless.

"That's the end of it. There is nothing but rocks inside!"

"Young man, you just wasted 1.1 million!"

The onlookers shook their heads and sighed -some had a sympathetic look while others were more sarcastic.

"Hahahaha! Congratulations, Leon! You bought a worthless rock for 1.1 million! Kudos to you for being such a big idiot!" Brody cackled so hard that he nearly rolled around on the floor in laughter. At the same time, he was secretly relieved that Leon.

decided to continue bidding 100,000 bucks, otherwise, he would have been the idiot!

"Once a loser, always a loser! You finally managed to get some money but now you squandered it all on a rock! You're so useless you might as well bury yourself in a hole!" Marilyn sneered. Her expression was disdainful!

Leon's expression sank. He sensed a pure and powerful aura from within that raw jade stone, albeit fleeting.

It never once crossed his mind that there would be nothing after the raw jade stone

was cut!

He began to doubt whether his senses were mistaken.

"It can still take one last cut. I'll do this time!" Leon believed what he felt earlier and strode over.

"Come on, it's already so small. It's a stretch for you to cut it again something. My advice to you is to just give up and accept reality!"

"True! Even if there's some pea–green jade inside, it'll be worth maybe fifty bucks, tops!"

"What's fifty bucks when you've already lost more than a million?"

Everyone burst into laughter, and many felt that Leon was being that money go to waste!

"Aren't you going to save what little dignity you have left now that you, I'd lower my head and get the hell out of here! Aren't you feeling embarrassed at all?" Brody smiled mockingly.

Leon ignored Brody's jibe, aimed the stone cutter at the middle of the stone, and

delivered a cut.

Within seconds, the raw jade stone that was cut in half began to glow with a green

light!

To everyone's bewilderment, there was a piece of jadeite within that palm–sized raw jade stone!

"It's glowing green!"

"So? It's likely some low–grade pea–green jadeite. With that kind of size, it's worth peanuts even if it is on the higher–quality pea–green jadeite!" "

"Agreed. It's probably good for about a few hundred at most!"

Everyone shot Leon a disdainful full after reacting to what they saw.

Chapter 69

3/3

There was nothing for Leon to be proud of when he bid 1.1 million for that raw jade stone and ended up with only two small pea–green jadeites!

Leon picked them up, held them in his palm, and channeled his internal energy to them. As expected, he felt two surges of very pure spiritual energy!

There was no doubt that he found what he wanted!
