Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 404

Chapter 404

From launching her first beauty salon to leading Summit Group today, Roxy’s path had always been smooth. No major setback had ever come her way.

Even when obstacles arose, Ashton had quietly managed them behind the scenes.

Because of this, Roxy had come to view herself as a business prodigy destined for success. She believed it was her fate to stand at the pinnacle of the world.

As for Ashton, he had long since been unable to match her pace. Being a mere stay–at–home man, what right did he have to call himself her husband?

Engulfed in her arrogance, Roxy remained blind to all that Ashton had given up.

She forgot the journey that had brought her here, convinced that everything she had was simply hers by right. She felt untouchable. As far as she was concerned, Ashton didn’t matter at all.

In fact, he had become nothing more than a barrier to her ambition.

Yet tonight, reality struck like a sudden, stinging slap to the face.

Images raced through Roxy’s mind, each one pulling her heart further into despair.

Suddenly, the truth hit her. At almost every critical moment in Summit Group’s growth, Ashton had been there, working silently in the background. Problems that had seemed insurmountable had somehow resolved themselves.

Could Ashton have been right? Was everything she had now really because of him?

“Impossible!” A wild, almost unhinged glint flashed in Roxy’s eyes. She would never admit that Ashton had been the architect of her success.

Had all her struggles over the past ten years been for nothing?

What had become of the pride she once carried in Ashton’s presence?

Could her divorce from him have been such a terrible mistake?

Hadn’t she essentially driven the perfect Ashton straight into the arms of those alluring women?

Roxy’s mind was in utter chaos.

“Ms. Sloan, what do we do now? Summit Beauty is falling apart!”

Glancing at the flustered Roxy, Anna let out a soft sigh.

While those caught in the conflict were left in the dark, the onlookers could see every move unfold.

Anna had long realized that Summit Group owed its success to Ashton working behind the scenes. Still, the ever- proud Roxy had deliberately refused to acknowledge this truth.

Perhaps she had felt insecure around Ashton from the very beginning. The harder she tried to prove herself, the more she drove away the man who loved her deeply.

Pride had a way of making people stubborn and blind to their own faults, after all.

Roxy quickly reined in her emotions, her eyes landing on the Complexion Elixir in her hand.

The moment the product was launched, she used her connections to get a sample.

After trying it herself, she realized the results matched the reviewers‘ claims–it far surpassed every beauty product on the market.

Roxy knew without a doubt that Summit Beauty’s Revita Serum and PureDew Mask had fallen far behind. There was no way she could fight back.

“What’s the price of the Complexion Elixir?” Roxy asked. After steadying her emotions, a faint glimmer of hope returned to her eyes.

It didn’t matter what effects the Complexion Elixir had. If the product came with astronomical production costs and a price few could ever afford, she still had a chance to turn things around. Not everything would be taken from

her.

At Roxy’s question, Anna shuddered, the color fading from her cheeks.

“Ms. Sloan, Martha mentioned in her livestream that the Complexion Elixir costs 399 dollars. According to her, the price is intended as a thoughtful gesture. She hopes every woman will have the opportunity to feel beautiful. “Her livestream has also gone completely viral! Rumor has it that Martha’s audience has topped ten million for the first time…”

Upon hearing this, the last flicker of hope in Roxy’s eyes faded.
