Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 685

Chapter 685

Ashton stared at the chosen maiden before him. The Drakell technique was surging violently within his body, and his gaze was possessive and fervent.

Under his gaze, Elise blushed as she muttered, “You promised me you’ll only take me after you sever the Sage’s head from his body.”

“Should I just claim my reward in advance?” Ashton asked bluntly.

As his cultivation level increased, the spiritual energy he had previously absorbed was nearly exhausted.

Thus, he was now staring at Elise, who possessed a Bewitching constitution, with a hungry look in his eyes.

If it weren’t for his willpower, he would’ve already given in to his desires and claimed the woman as his own.

Despite his intense gaze, Elise didn’t retreat. Instead, she stepped forward and gently pressed her lips against his ear.

In a low and magnetic voice, she whispered, “Come and look for me the night before you confront the Sage.”

Ashton seemed enthralled by her offer. If he could sleep with Elise before he confronted Flint, he might actually be able to break into the Divine Realm. Once he managed to do so, his confidence would be unshakable.

He chuckled. Wrapping an arm around her small waist, he tilted her chin up and forced her to look at him.

While studying her face with open amusement, he teased, “Why? Are you worried that you’ll lose the chance to sleep with me if I die at the banquet?”

Elise shuddered and tried to pull away. But to her dismay, Ashton’s arm held her firmly in place. Subsequently, the people around her begin to chuckle.

“Let go of me!” she protested in a flustered manner. “I never claimed that something would happen if you dropped by to see me!

“Really? In that case, I look forward to seeing you on that night. I’ll come to your room when the time comes,” said Ashton.

Then, he leaned in and gently bit her ear. “I like black stockings. They’d suit your legs perfectly.”

“What?” Elise rasped.

She pressed her lips together and stared at Ashton’s face.

Subsequently, she instinctively pressed her legs together as the blush on her cheeks began to spread across the rest of her body. Her eyes grew even more captivating, and her feminine charm was now on full display.

Once she calmed herself down, she said in a concerned tone, “Are you truly confident that you’ll win, sir? Every woman in the Blossom Hall has staked all of their life’s savings on this. If you lose, we’ll be left without a place to call home.

“On top of that, we won’t even have anyone to protect us.”

“I’ll be able to win if you let me claim my reward in advance,” Ashton replied confidently.

Elise’s mind was filled with scandalous images, and she didn’t dare to flirt with Ashton any longer. If this exchange were to continue, she was worried he would give in to his desires right then and there.

“Hurry up and go to Whitney!” she said before she hastily fled the scene.

She was already thinking about the black stockings she was going to wear in a few days‘ time. The thought of it made her feel

nervous and excited.

As he watched her leave, Ashton began to feel excited as well. He hadn’t expected her to make the first move. She seemed genuinely worried that something might happen to him at the banquet.

“Romance is everywhere in life,” he muttered to himself. Then, he let out a hearty laugh before walking into Whitney’s room.
