Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 29

“Let’s go!” Roxy snapped before turning on her heel and walking off

“Drive safe, Roxy, Don’t worry! I’ll look after Astion,” Syria called out sweetly as the priced in many righ At those words, Roxy’s face darkened, and her steps quickened.

Once Roxy and the others were gone, Isaac said apologetically, “Have we caused trouble for you, Mr. Goy

“This has nothing to do with you guys. Honestly, you didn’t need to leave Sommit Group jest because of me,” Ashton said with a sigh.

He didn’t think Isaac and the others would resign from Summit Group just like that. In fact, he would’ve wanted them to stay on and carry on living a stable life. After all, he hadn’t figured out what he was going to do yet

“What are you saying, Mr. Gray? Do you think we joined Summit Group for the paycheck? Our lives belong to you We’ll go wherever you go!” Isaac and the other men declared resolutely.

“Ashton, why don’t you let Mr. Carter and the others join my company, Evermore Group? I just happen to be short on staff, and I plan on expanding a few establishments. It’d be great if they could help me!” Sylvia suggested with an eager expression.

“I’ll give them twice the salary they were getting from Summit Group, and they’ll even get year–end bonuses! How about it?”

Ashton thought about it for a moment before asking, “What do you think, Isaac?”

“We’ll do as you say, Mr. Gray!”

“Hm… Sylvia, Evermore Club is right opposite Summit Lounge, right?”

Sylvia’s eyes brightened, and she said in an aggrieved tone, “It is. I started Evermore Club to compete with Roxy’s Summit Lounge. But over the past two years, Evermore Club has been doing poorly while Summit Lounge keeps soaring to new heights. My Evermore Club is on the verge of shutting down.”

Pouting, she grumbled, “Don’t think I don’t know the reason for Summit Lounge’s success, Ashton. It’s because you’ve been secretly helping them. I’ve suffered such heavy losses because of you! How are you going to make it up to me?”

“In that case, put me in charge of Evermore Club for now. I’ll return it to you once I make it the top entertainment establishment in Javonbury. Consider it my gift to you,” Ashton said. “As for Isaac and the others, they can start by working at Evermore Club first.”

“Are you serious?” Sylvia exclaimed in joy. “I’ll make the arrangements right away! But I won’t be taking advantage of you either, Ashton. I’ll transfer 51% of Evermore Club’s shares to you. What do you say?”

Shaking his head, Ashton said, “You don’t need to do that.”

“That won’t do. If you don’t have any shares in Evermore Club, Ashton, I’d be worried you wouldn’t be serious about managing it. In any case, you’re going to need money, too. You have to have a business of your own,” Sylvia insisted.

In the end, Ashton didn’t continue refusing her offer. What he intended to repay Sylvia with someday would far outweigh the value of a single entertainment establishment.

Now that he’d settled jobs for Isaac and the other men, he and Sylvia headed to Paramount Hospital.

Ashton kept massaging his forehead, still uncertain how he was going to explain the situation to Irene.

Meanwhile, Roxy and the others had just rushed back to the Sloan residence. They’d gotten in touch with a couple of renowned doctors. One of them was a friend of Calvin’s.

“Where’s the medication? Did you get it from that bastard Ashton?” Tanya demanded.
