Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 243

Chapter 243

Ashton’s words hit like a thunderclap, echoing through Skybound Boxing.

Everyone stood there, stunned. What the hell had just happened? How could Clay, the future head of the Dominion Vanguard, just watch his buddy get pummeled and do nothing?

“Natalie, your man is savage…”

Sheila felt heat rise in her chest. Ashton kept shattering everything she thought she knew.

Before this, she’d believed the Sage’s youngest son, Edmund, was the definition of an outstanding man. Now, compared to Ashton, he was nothing!

Meanwhile, Natalie was both shocked and thrilled. She knew exactly why Ashton was being so domineering that night–he wanted to win her over and conquer her.

She’d planned to drag things out and buy herself time, but she now realized she might really get pulled into this. And this time, she couldn’t refuse him at all.

Edmund coughed violently, feeling like his body was falling apart. He spat out a mouthful of blood as he glared at Clay and growled, “What’s your deal, Clay? I didn’t get you to come here to watch me get humiliated!”

Clay stayed silent. After a long moment, he turned to the vanguards and said, “We’re leaving.”

Then, he gave Ashton a poignant look, his eyes brimming with hatred and fear. This wasn’t the time for revenge. He would swallow this insult. When he broke through to the transcendent realm, that would be when Ashton died. He would pay back this humiliation tenfold–no, hundredfold!

Clay walked out without so much as a glance at Edmund. Like a sudden gust, the Dominion Vanguard had swept in and swept out.

Once they’d vanished from the hall, everyone was left staring, dumbfounded. What had just happened? Did the Dominion Vanguard show up for a cameo in this farce?

“What the hell was that?”

“There’s only one way to explain it–Clay and his people didn’t want to cross Ashton over Edmund. In a way, Ashton’s clout really is bigger than Edmund’s. We underestimated him!”

“Doesn’t that mean Edmund is screwed?”

A few breaths later, Ashton stepped up to Edmund. Feeling the crushing pressure radiating off him, Edmund’s knees shook. He kept stumbling backward, his face ashen. “D–Don’t come any closer! I can still call others in! I haven’t lost! I-”

With a thud, Ashton launched him with another kick. After the repeated blows, Edmund lay in a pool of blood, looking like a blood–soaked mess. He wailed in agony.

He couldn’t wrap his head around this. Why didn’t Clay dare to make a move on Ashton? Why was he being humiliated by Ashton like this?

Ashton planted his foot on Edmund’s face and said coldly, told you that you’d only get one shot. Now, it’s gone. Time to admit you’re not my equal. Admit that Natalie and sheila are my women, not yours.”

“You-”

“If you still refuse to admit it, I’ll have to kill you.” Ashton laughed icily. “Of course, you can gamble–see whether I have the nerve to kill the Sage’s youngest son.”

Seeing that feral, murderous grin on Ashton’s face, Edmund almost lost control of his bladder. His lips went white, and he felt trapped in a hell of pure terror.

“I’ll give you three seconds. Refuse to concede, and I’ll send you straight to hell.” Ashton’s voice carried no emotion. “Three… Two…”

“I concede! I admit defeat!” Edmund shattered under Ashton’s overwhelming killing intent.

He babbled, “I, Edmund Vance, am not as good as you, Ashton Gray–not in power or clout, and not as a man. Natalie and Sheila belong to you. From now on, I won’t dare covet your women ever again…”
