Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 627

Chapter 627

Lawrence flashed a mischievous grin. With a casual flick of his hand, still wrapped in silver flames, he gently sent Leona drifting over to Ashton’s side.

“Ash, take good care of her this year.”

After saying that, he even winked at Ashton, clearly hinting for him to hurry up and lock her down.

Ashton was rendered speechless.

Seeing that Leona had been sent to Ashton’s side, Maxwell’s expression darkened. Feeling the killing intent radiating from Lawrence, he let out a cold laugh.

“Mr. Clarkson Senior, what exactly are you trying to do?”

Lawrence turned his gaze back to him, openly showing his contempt.

“All these years, and you haven’t changed a bit. You’re still a petty weakling, not fit for anything meaningful.”

“Watch your words!” Maxwell snapped, his eyes narrowing with a sharp glint.

He already knew what Lawrence planned to do, yet he showed no fear.

An elderly man who had barely recovered half his former strength–what was there to be afraid of?

In fact, a wild, reckless thought surfaced in Maxwell’s mind. If he killed Lawrence today, the fall of the Legion would be inevitable. His name would echo across the world.

From then on, Lawrence would no longer be remembered as a hero or a legend. He would be nothing more than a dead man at Maxwell’s feet. As for the consequences…

But if Lawrence struck first, this was nothing more than a justified counterattack.

“I was willing to let things go, since your Dominion Vanguard still had some use,” Lawrence said slowly.

He went on, “But today you dared to collude with a Jalun swordsman to kill my successors. If I let this slide, then the Legion is doomed. How about this? Get on your knees, apologize and admit your mistake, then I’ll let your people leave.”

His tone was calm, almost gentle, but the underlying warning was icy.

He had wanted to avoid bloodshed among their own people. But that hope now seemed hopelessly naive.

Maxwell burst out laughing. His aura surged, pressing down on Lawrence.

“You want me to kneel and admit I’m wrong? You’d better have the ability to back that up because that battered frame of yours isn’t enough to scare me.”

Since Lawrence had thrown all caution to the wind, Maxwell saw no reason to show an ounce of respect either. After today, the Dominion Vanguard and the Legion would become sworn enemies. Nothing could mend what had just begun.

“You think you can measure up to this world?” Lawrence said with a sneer. “I still don’t get why your old leader picked a worthless fool like you.”

“Don’t push it too far. I’ve already given you enough respect,” Maxwell snapped, his fury rising like a storm.
