Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 401

Chapter 401

Sylvia’s and Martha’s voices brimmed with affection. At first glance, it was clear that they were both hopelessly in love.

Roxy took a deep breath and quickly pulled herself together. It was pointless to feel angry over a man she had never wanted; jealousy was the last thing she should be feeling.

Still, an invisible weight pressed down on her chest.

Roxy couldn’t grasp why Sylvia and Martha were glowing with happiness. What was it about Ashton that had captured their hearts?

It took Roxy a long moment to calm the storm of emotions swirling inside her. Her gaze darkened as she stared at Ashton.

“I’m sure you’ve already noticed how popular Revita Serum and PureDew Mask have become. Summit Beauty’s value has already tripled, and it’s only going to rise further. Weren’t you constantly bragging that you’d bring Summit Beauty crashing down and make me live in fear?

“But are you really capable of doing that?” Roxy taunted.

Roxy’s arrogance flared even more. She lifted her chin and sneered, “Ashton, all you’re good at is charming women. Your actions only make me despise you more. Once they see that you’re all show and no substance, they’ll abandon you without a second thought!”

“Are you done talking?”

With one arm around Martha and the other around Sylvia, Ashton met Roxy’s bright gaze. His tone was colored with indifference, and his expression mirrored that same arrogance.

Both he and Roxy were haughty and prideful.

For Roxy’s sake, Ashton had once been willing to abandon his pride, wanting nothing more than to spend his life by her side.

But now, he would never sacrifice himself for anyone again.

Roxy let out a snort. “Forget trying to take Celia from me. You’ll never win!”

“I wouldn’t be so sure about that,” Ashton retorted as a chuckle escaped him. “Are you not aware of Summit’s current scale? Considering its market share, you should be cautious about speaking so boldly! I still have a few trump cards up my sleeve. Who comes out on top is far from decided!”

“You’re mistaken! Summit Beauty’s market share will shatter your expectations!” Roxy squared her shoulders, and a haughty smile played on her lips. “Even if the three of you join forces, you still won’t stand a chance. You’d better act wisely!”

Unable to bear Ashton’s smug expression any longer, Roxy turned and walked away, her high heels clicking sharply against the floor.

She couldn’t believe Ashton’s audacity to grope Martha and Sylvia right in front of her.

Despite this, neither Martha nor Sylvia displayed any hint of disgust. Instead, they appeared shy and flustered.

Roxy had no desire to ever witness such a scene again.

“Ashton, Roxy seems terribly upset. I can tell she still has feelings for you; otherwise, she wouldn’t be this worked up,” Martha whispered.

As Ashton watched Roxy walk away, he couldn’t help but dwell on the energy she had been radiating.

But before his thoughts could wander further, he shut them down. Letting out a chuckle, he said, “It doesn’t matter whether she still has feelings for me or not. Whatever love I once had for her is long gone. All I want now is to see her lose everything. That’s how I’ll make up for the ten years I’ve lost.”

“Ashton, I’ll stand by you!”

“Ashton, I’ll stand by you too!”

As he felt the warmth of the two women beside him, Ashton couldn’t help but smile. “Roxy will definitely step up her efforts soon. The countdown to Summit Beauty’s collapse has already begun. We’d better be prepared!”

By the next day, advertisements for Summit Beauty’s Revita Serum and PureDew Mask were everywhere in Javonbury. The two products were trending on all major platforms.

Anyone keeping an eye on the beauty industry could sense a storm approaching–one that was set to redefine the very standards of beauty.

That same day, a piece of news dropped like a bombshell, sending shockwaves through the industry.

Not only had Martha officially joined Evermore Media, but she had also been named the face of Evermore Beauty’s latest launch, the Complexion Elixir.

“What’s going on? Hadn’t Martha been working with Summit Media all along? Why would she suddenly sign with Evermore Media? These two companies aren’t even in the same league! How could Martha make such a reckless decision?”

“One wrong step often sets off a chain of mistakes. While Summit Group is flourishing, Evermore Group is already on the decline. How could Martha be so short–sighted as to endorse a product like the Complexion Elixir? Doesn’t she care that this could tarnish her reputation?”
