The Ex-Husband’s Revenge By Dragonsky novel Chapter 2481

"Mister Wolf, don't mess with us! These herbs should add up to at least 287 million. A vice president like you can't possibly afford it." Josua was the first to snap out of it. He sneered and glanced at Leon in contempt.

Apart from Renee, he and Ariella were the first people to know Leon and they knew about Leon's background.

According to what he knew, Leon was just a vice president from a small business in the southern region and was not even a descendant of influential families.

With that in mind, he assumed that Leon might not even possess 3 million, let alone hundreds of millions.

Yet, Leon claimed that he wanted to purchase all fifteen herbs.

This was practically impossible and he refused to believe Leon could accomplish it.

"That's right!"

"Kid, I'm warning you. Suppose you can't afford the herbs, scram. Don't cause trouble here! If you keep this up, we will show you no mercy."

...

Realization dawned on the others and they all turned to glare at Leon.

They knew Leon was just a vice president who likely had a net worth of a few million at best.

However, even the cheapest herbs that only grew for three hundred years cost up to 4 million.

They assumed that Leon might not be able to afford even the cheapest herb and that he was just seeking attention, as they could not think of any other explanation for his behavior.

She could not determine if Leon was truly trying to make the purchase or if he was causing trouble on purpose as others accused him of.

"Mister Wolf, these herbs are too expensive and, normally, you can't afford them. Please think this through," Ariella said.

She agreed with the others and did not think Leon could afford so many herbs. Hence, she tried to talk him out of it to save him from embarrassment.

"Yeah! Mister Wolf, don't just run your mouth if you can't afford it. You may not mind losing face, but don't drag Miss Morrison down into your mess," Joshua mocked.

Though he was jealous of Leon and desperately wished he would embarrass himself in public, both he and Ariella came along with Renee and Leon.

With Leon being seen as a fool, he was worried that he might be seen the same way as well.
