Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 612

Chapter 612

Maxwell let out a small sigh–not out of pity for the soon–to–be–dying Ashton, of course. He simply lamented the fact that Clay’s talent and the Nexus Pill were now both being wasted.

Nevertheless, as long as they won this match and proved the might of the Dominion Vanguard, it would all be worth it, even if they had to sacrifice Clay and resort to unscrupulous methods.

At the end of the day, only the outcome mattered.

Maxwell would never allow the Legion any chance of revival, nor would he let Ashton step on Clay to make a name for himself.

Besides, the betting pool had already swelled up to tens of billions of dollars. That, combined with the original terms of the match, was too much. Neither he nor the Dominion Vanguard could afford such a loss.

“Hmph! Ashton’s dead for sure!” Ronan scowled, his face twisted.

The murderous rage he felt for Ashton was no less than Clay’s. Ashton had cost him the deputy head position at the Dominion Vanguard. Therefore, he wanted to see Ashton die in the fight, becoming the final lament of the Legion.

Frowning slightly, Leona said in displeasure, “Mr. Lademan, pills and other external forces aren’t allowed in a duel to the death

in the arena…”

Maxwell cast a glance at her and smiled coldly. “You’re still young, Leona. You don’t understand the cruel reality of this world. Don’t be fooled by the shouting now.

“In the end, the world will only remember Ashton’s death and the fall of the Legion. The glory of the Dominion Vanguard will only shine brighter from now on.”

Leona’s frown deepened. She didn’t agree with Maxwell’s ruthless and mercenary tactics, but she knew she couldn’t change anything. All she could do was feel a pang of wistfulness.

Could Ashton perform some kind of miracle now?

But as she stared at him now, she didn’t feel all that hopeful. No matter how strong he was, a transcendent realm expert like him couldn’t defeat Clay, who’d forcibly reached the semi–divine realm.

In an instant, Clay’s murderous force surged, spilling beyond the bounds of the arena. The sheer ferocity of his killing intent sent chills down every spine.

Everyone knew Clay hated Ashton to the core and would show no mercy. Ashton was now caught up in a dire situation.

“That damned referee! Clay has already lost, so why is he allowing the duel to continue? He’s clearly targeting the Legion! The referee is blatantly favoring the Dominion Vanguard!”

“How despicable! How utterly shameless! What happened to fairness and justice? How can the Dominion Vanguard be so shameless?”

“Hah! What’s with all the fuss? You people can’t handle losing, huh?”

The ones who’d bet on Clay were now cackling with glee. The rush of hope after having fallen into despair filled them with such

exhilaration.

Luck was on their side! Fate hadn’t abandoned them!

Who cared about justice and fairness? It was nowhere near as important as winning the bet!

“Once you’re in the arena, your life only hinges on your abilities. If Clay can reach the semi–divine realm, it just proves he’s capable of doing it! And if Ashton can’t defeat him, he can just surrender and admit defeat!”
