Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 207

Chapter 207

Ashton and Sylvia were glued to each other, presenting the picture of a blissful couple.

That display hit Damian like a physical blow, trampling his pride and leaving him utterly mortified.

“Let’s go!” Ashton exclaimed, wrapping an arm around Sylvia as they prepared to leave.

“You don’t just walk out on me!”

Damian’s face was a contorted mask of hatred. He laughed out of sheer fury and pointed at Ashton, bellowing You’re Ashton Gray, huh? You have two options, Ashton!

“Your first option is to grovel before me, bang your head on the floor three times, and leave Javonbury for good Your second option is that I’ll break all your limbs right now, ensuring that you spend the rest of your life as a crippled man! You’re free to choose your fate!”

That single remark plunged the atmosphere into an absolute, deathly chill. It made everyone in the

surroundings sense the palpable, explosive desire to kill emanating from Damian, someone who was known to be capable of any transgression.

“What do you think you’re doing, Damian? How many times do I have to tell you that I have no feelings for you whatsoever? I only have Ashton in my heart! You should stop this nonsense and get out of the way!” Sylvia roared, trying to prevent Damian from clashing with Ashton.

Damian’s eyes were blazing with fury. He couldn’t believe that his beloved woman would scorn him so openly for the sake of that other man.

He bellowed, “Go ahead and incapacitate Ashton’s legs, Nicholas! He’ll have to crawl out if he wants to leave here! I’ll make sure he never competes with me for Sylvia again once he is deprived of his mobility!”

Damian was already so furious that he had lost all sense of reason. He utterly disregarded the repercussions of attacking someone in full public view, as his sole objective was to exact bloody retribution from Ashton.

Nicholas Webber, the elder at Damian’s side, instantly moved forward with a cold, deadly glint flashing in his eyes. He was sworn to absolute, unquestioning obedience to Damian, after all.

In that instant, an unrestrained intent to kill permeated the air.

Robert’s face was practically glowing with excitement while exclaiming, “Mom, Ashton actually has the nerve to act so insolently before Mr. Payne! He is practically courting his own demise! Oh, man! I’m dying to watch the pathetic spectacle of Ashton with his legs crippled!”

“Justice is finally being served! That good–for–nothing will never be able to behave arrogantly before us again once they break his legs! He totally deserves this!” Tanya exclaimed, feeling an overwhelming, vicious glee.

She watched Ashton intently, waiting for the moment of his downfall.

Roxy’s countenance betrayed a look of deep distress. She took a step toward the scene, clearly intending to intercede on Ashton’s behalf.

Tanya quickly held her back, yelling, “What do you think you’re doing, Roxy? That man is the most distinguished scion in Javonbury! You ought to know that crossing him will inevitably destroy Summit Group!

You might be compassionate, but Ashton brought this on himself! You’re not allowed to get involved in this, Roxy!”

Roxy merely furrowed her brow and let out a weary sigh.

Just as Nicholas moved to strike Ashton, Cadence emerged and blocked his path. “You ought to remember that you’re currently at Auric Night and on the Gale Assembly’s turf, Mr. Webber!”

Nicholas cocked his brow, saying, “That man has grossly insulted Mr. Payne and will be dealt with accordingly, Mr. Suther. I’ll ensure that the Payne family will compensate you accordingly to mitigate any damages, so please move aside for the sake of the Payne family, Mr. Suther!”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t allow that!” Cadence stated firmly.

Upon hearing that, those present immediately froze in surprise. They found it hard to believe that Cadence, the head of the Gale Assembly, would intervene at such a pivotal moment. His refusal meant risking the Payne family’s wrath.

Though the Gale Assembly possessed considerable influence, it paled in comparison to the Payne family, the undisputed rulers of Javonbury.
