"You definitely can't do that!" Calvin cried out.Anna's suggestion alarmed him at once. What if Roxy did end up asking Ashton for help? What if they got back together afterward? Where would that leave him?His eyes flickered for a moment, and a thought came to him. "I figured it out, Roxy! This is all part of Ashton's dirty scheme! He's the one who sent these people over to humiliate you. His goal is to force you into apologizing to him! You'd be falling right into his trap if you asked him for help!"Calvin's expression was filled with malice as he continued, "Think about it, Roxy. Ashton was part of the criminal underworld in the first place. I'm sure he's acquainted with these people."Why did they choose to come here now, of all times, to cause trouble? It's obviously a deliberate move! This explained why they didn't show me any respect either. It's all because of that petty, despicable man!""Mr. Gray would never do that!" Anna protested with a frown. "The Blackfang Gang, th

Despite the arrival of Eunice, Arlo, Nathan, and Oscar didn't panic. They made a living in the criminal underworld. Although they were wary of the local authorities and showed them some respect, they were also the least afraid of them. After all, the authorities had to abide by their laws and code of conduct.They had nothing to fear, so long as they weren't breaking any laws."Roxy, are these the ones extorting you?" Eunice asked as she eyed Arlo and the others coldly, her gaze full of contempt.Being a legionnaire, she had no regard for people involved in the criminal underworld."You shouldn't be speaking carelessly, miss," Arlo remarked with a sneer. "We would never dare to extort someone in broad daylight! We're just here as ordinary customers. Kindly avoid levelling false accusations at us!"Do you think you have the right to frame the innocent just because you're wearing the Legion's battle robe? If I'm not mistaken, the Legion's mission is to uphold justice and safeguard

Kayla couldn't understand why Lawrence had such high regard for Ashton and even insisted on making the trip to Javonbury himself.Lawrence, an old man with a slightly hunched figure, smiled and reminded Kayla, "Never judge a person based on appearances. Take a look at all the details about Ashton. With every single thing he has done, he's fought evil and championed the good."He has saved more people than you and I can even imagine. Over a thousand people have benefited from his actions. Check the list of people he had taken down in the past. Was there a single one who wasn't wicked and guilty of the most unforgivable crimes?"Most importantly, I sense something familiar from him. I didn't expect him to come from such a lineage."Lawrence's gaze had been fixed on Ashton the whole time. As if recalling something, he had a hesitant look in his eyes, fraught with mixed emotions. It felt like he was making a major decision."What lineage?" Kayla asked, her curiosity piqued.Instead o

The current Ashton no longer smiled gently at Roxy. Instead, he gave off a domineering air that made her extremely uncomfortable.Steadying her breath, she lifted her chin to maintain her proud demeanor. She would never reveal a weak side of herself in front of him!"What's the matter? Are you feeling really smug about it? You stopped me so that you could gloat in front of me?" Roxy questioned."I've got nothing to be smug about. I just came to give you a reminder. The business empire that you're so proud of is starting to crumble. This is just the beginning of your nightmare, and it won't end. I hope you're prepared for that," Ashton said with a derisive snort."Of course, if you throw in the towel early and willingly give me custody of Celia, I'll spare some of your dignity on account of you being her mother."As his words rang out, Roxy's expression grew steadily more hostile. Her voice was sharp and icy as she retorted, "What gives you such ridiculous confidence, Ashton? How c

"I'll give you three million dollars a month each, and we can part ways as friends," Roxy declared. "But if you don't wish to make my acquaintance, then we'll just go down together."Her words were firm and forceful.Arlo, Nathan, and Oscar exchanged looks. They all felt stunned by her. Bringing their heads together, they solemnly discussed the situation in low voices.Soon, they set aside their hostility. Chuckling, Arlo complimented Roxy, "I've long heard of your bold and decisive manner, Ms. Sloan. After seeing you in action today, I am now certain you live up to your reputation."Well, we'll do you a favor and accept the three million dollars—and your friendship."If they had a choice, they didn't want to burn their bridges with the massive Summit Group either. And after realizing that Roxy could call upon a legionnaire for help, they were even more wary of engaging Roxy in a bitter fight."Anna, give them the money and escort them out!" Roxy instructed.Anna let out a quiet
