The Ex-Husband's Revenge

"Roanne, if you don't know how to thank Leon, just give yourself to him," Ruth teased.

"What? I-" Roanne blushed.

She did want to offer herself to Leon, but she also knew that was not possible. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Leon had yet to accept Cynthia completely, so there was hardly any space left in his heart for her.

Still, she could not help hoping that Leon would accept Cynthia one day and she would stand a chance of becoming the next Cynthia.

"Ruth, don't bully Roanne for being shy! Leon has done a lot for you as well, so why didn't you offer yourself to him?" Snow rolled her eyes at Ruth.

Snow was the eldest amongst the women and considered Leon's godsister. Hence, she was assuming the role of the eldest sister.

She was the first to know Roanne and liked how innocent Roanne was. Since Ruth was teasing Roanne, she could not help but intervene.

"I want to! So long as Iris and Cynthia are okay with it, I don't mind dating Leon as well," Ruth chuckled and hugged Leon's arm, not at all bothered by Snow's sarcastic comment.

"You! You're shameless!" Snow’s expression darkened, feeling defeated by Ruth's carefree nature.

"Ruth, that's enough. It's getting late. You should all go back to your rooms to rest." Leon felt awkward. Unable to stand Ruth's boldness, he withdrew his arm from her hold and changed the subject.

"Alright, you scaredy cat. We'll leave you and Iris alone now," Ruth made a face at them and grabbed the arms of Cynthia and Roanne.

The group left and returned to the neighboring room to rest.

Once they left, Leon and Iris were the only ones left in the room.

"Leon, Cynthia, and the others are gone, so we should rest soon," Iris blushed, not daring to meet his eyes.

Though she dated Leon for a while, she was still shy at times.

"Hang on. Iris, I need to explain myself for what happened between me and Miss Daglesh today," Leon said thoughtfully.

Since the misunderstanding involved Candice's privacy, he could not tell the truth in front of everyone.

However, since he was alone with Iris, he no longer needed to hold back and told Iris about what happened when he treated Candice.

"I see!" Iris finally understood that Leon refused to explain himself because he had to.

As a doctor, it was understandable for him to come into contact with his patient's body during treatment, so she could not possibly blame Leon for that.
