Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 148

Chapter 148

Ultimately, Calvin could only turn to Roxy for help.

“Roxy! They’re all bullying me!”

Roxy looked at the handprints on Calvin’s face. Then, she turned to look at Ashton with an overbearing expression while Sylvia stood right next to him, leaning in a little. She felt very displeased for some reason.

Calvin’s humiliation was making her feel humiliated as well. In fact, she was starting to form a negative impression of Calvin. Suddenly, it didn’t mean much to her that Calvin had once been her first love.

Ashton had completely overshadowed Calvin at this rate, making him out to be nothing but a clown.

Roxy quickly recollected her emotions and turned to look at Ashton. “Since everything turned out to be just a misunderstanding, and you’ve been acquitted of the crimes, then just let bygones be bygones. Calvin didn’t mean to do that. What’s the point of you forcing him to do this now?”

“A misunderstanding?”

Ashton burst out laughing. “Roxy, I wouldn’t be wrong to call you stupid at this moment. Do you really think this looks like a misunderstanding to you?

“If it weren’t for what little ability I had, I’d probably already have died a wrongful death by now! I was just telling your darling first love to get down and apologize to me, and you’re already feeling oh–so–sorry for him now?”

“Ashton, I’m not going to argue with you on this. Just think of it as doing me a favor. Let Calvin leave,” Roxy said, feeling frustrated.

She didn’t want to go into any further details. She already couldn’t even look Ashton in the eyes anymore.

In fact, she felt a little pang of remorse. She suddenly wondered if she’d really misunderstood Ashton all this time.

However, that thought quickly vanished from her head. She would never admit that she was wrong!

She wanted to pursue her freedom. If anything, divorcing Ashton had been the best decision she’d made in her entire life!

“Do you a favor?”

Ashton chuckled coldly.

“Roxy Sloan, who do you think you are, asking me for a favor? Did you actually think that I would still do favors for you given your current situation?”

“Haha… You shouldn’t have said that, Roxy. I remember you drawing a strict line with Ashton, saying that you were cutting all ties with him last time. So, why are you suddenly asking him for a favor now? This doesn’t sound like something you’d do!” Sylvia said, holding her chin high.

She then pressed closer to Ashton and asked smugly, “Also, Roxy, do you remember me begging you to ask Calvin to release Ashton earlier? But what did you do just now?”

Roxy’s expression dropped. She knew that she’d lost, and she averted her gaze at once.

“Roxy…”

Calvin looked deeply into her eyes and called her name. Roxy was the only one who could save him now. He didn’t want to grovel or ask Ashton for forgiveness! It was too much humiliation for him to bear.

It would most definitely traumatize him and make him live forever in Ashton’s shadow!

Roxy felt even more frustrated now. She glared at Ashton and gritted through her teeth, saying, “Ashton Gray! Must you really resort to this? This is a lose lose situation if you insist on burning bridges! I’ll make sure Calvin never attacks you again as long as you let him leave!”

“Him? Attack me? Did you really think he’s worthy of that? Can he even do it?” Ashton asked contemptuously. He had never once considered Calvin a foe because he could crush him anytime he wanted.

“Roxy Sloan, your first love is quite a stubborn one, isn’t he? It’s fine. He can forget about the forgiveness part. You also don’t have to plead on his behalf. You’re nothing to me, and I’m not going to do you any favors.”

Ashton chuckled coldly again. Then, he glared at Calvin and said, “Do whatever you please. I don’t have the time to play with you anymore.”

Roxy’s expression darkened. She suddenly felt as though she’d just been slapped in the face by Ashton.

Whatever happened to the man who used to obey her every word as if they were his bible?

How could Ashton change his mind about her that quickly!
