Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 210

Chapter 210

Ashton was disappointed that Nicholas couldn’t endure the blow.

He resumed his embrace of Sylvia, then looked down on Damian sprawled at his feet, asking with palpable disdain, “Do you finally get who Sylvia belongs to now?”

Damian lifted his head with difficulty, observing Sylvia’s radiant gaze and profound affection for Ashton, along with the scorn evident in Ashton’s eyes.

He bellowed as his eyes turned bloodshot, “You should finish me off right now if you have the guts, Ashton! You ought to know that there’s no room for the two of us in Javonbury–it’s either you or me who has to die today!”

“You’re still resisting, huh? You’re going to keep provoking me and messing with my woman, huh?”

Ashton’s gaze immediately hardened. He absolutely despised unnecessary problems.

Damian endured the crushing weight of Ashton’s foot on his face and roared, “I’ll never submit to you! If you’re man enough, release me! I’ll call for my reinforcements at once! I swear I’ll make you suffer the most dishonorable death!”

Ashton chuckled. “You want to call for reinforcements, huh? Go ahead then!”

He then sent Ashton sprawling with a kick and said calmly, “You should go ahead and call for your reinforcements. I’ll be waiting here, so show me what you’ve got.” (1.

Damian’s body was racked with excruciating pain, feeling as though every bone in his body was broken.

Yet, the most intolerable aspect was the deep, ingrained disgrace of being utterly subjugated. He knew that his standing in Javonbury would be irreparably damaged if he couldn’t redeem himself in public this time. He would surely be reduced to a figure of ridicule in Javonbury.

He resolved that Ashton had to suffer tenfold for his audacity, and he had to reclaim Sylvia as his own. Only by achieving these goals could his ruined honor be salvaged.

Damian gritted his teeth against the searing pain and struggled to his feet, his features a mask of pain and hatred.

He immediately called someone, saying, “I need you to bring every A–ranked expert from the Zephyr Hall to Gale Hotel right now, Mr. Abbott! I need you to kill someone for me! I’ll personally bear the weight of any resulting complications!”

“Oh no! Mr. Payne had just called for reinforcement from the Zephyr Hall! That organization is known to harbor a bunch of ruthless desperados! Their head, Chandler Abbott, is said to be just shy of becoming an SS–ranked expert!”

“You know, the Zephyr Hall has consistently operated under the patronage of the Payne family! Ashton’s demise is a foregone conclusion! Those back at the Zephyr Hall are cold–blooded killers! Mr. Payne definitely wants Ashton dead!”

“How on earth is Ashton supposed to handle this?”

“He’s toast–not even Cadence, the head of the Gale Assembly, could save him this time! He brought this

disaster on himself; if I were him, I’d get the hell out of here and never return to Javonbury!”

Their gazes fixed on Ashton were laden with an unsettling mixture of concern and sympathy for Ashton. They clearly didn’t believe Ashton actually had the power to contend with Damian.

“That good–for–nothing brought this on himself! I absolutely hate his cocky, superior attitude! He should just wait for his inevitable end!”

Tanya kept hurling insults. Ashton’s growing smugness and defiance only escalated her fury, so she longed fiercely to see him stripped of his arrogance and utterly shamed.

“You can rest assured that those back in the Zephyr Hall aren’t to be trifled with, Mom! Ashton striking Mr. Payne is just him signing his own death warrant! There is no way anyone can protect Ashton now!” Robert snarled, stifling his indignation.

He remained adamant that his former brother–in–law, whom he despised, couldn’t possibly harbor any genuine competence.

“Why don’t you leave first, Ashton?” Sylvia asked worriedly, not wanting to drag him into a mess because of her.

She knew that the Payne family was far too formidable to challenge lightly.

Ashton ran his hand over Sylvia’s back and asked with a smile, “How am I supposed to leave when he hasn’t promised to stay away from you?”
