"Mom, Ashton is here! Please just apologize to him and beg him to save you," Renee urged."Ashton? That good-for-nothing is here? Tell him to give me the medication now! I'm dying!" Tanya shrieked, curled up like a shrimp, her face drained of color. She shivered and convulsed while clutching her abdomen.Ashton's gaze went cold when he heard that, and he turned to leave without a word. A wretch like her didn't deserve his help."Ashton, don't go!" Renee ran to stand in his way. "Mom, stop saying these things! Ashton is the only one who can save you right now, and he's only here for my sake. If he leaves now, you might not even make it through the night!"Tanya clenched her jaw. Her eyes were full of resentment, but she still chose to shut up. Of course, she wanted Ashton to save her."Ashton…" Renee looked at Ashton, at a loss for how to ask him to save Tanya. She knew it was too much to ask."She's almost gone," Ashton said icily, glancing at Tanya.Roxy and the others instantl

Renee nodded, feeling a gentle warmth spread in her chest.After that, Ashton walked out without sparing Roxy or the rest of the Sloans a glance.Tanya struggled to her feet as she watched him leave. "One day, I'm going to destroy that good-for-nothing! I'll make sure he never struts around so cockily again! Roxy, you have to find the toughest man out there and get even for me!""Mom, you should get some rest. I'll figure out a way to treat your stomach condition as soon as possible," Roxy said, feeling drained.Once Tanya went back to her room, Roxy turned to Renee and gently brushed the clear handprint on her face, her heart aching. "Renee, don't be mad at Mom…"Renee mumbled, "I just don't get it. Ashton is a great guy, so why—""Renee! Things are what they are. Picking apart the reasons doesn't mean anything anymore." Roxy sighed. "I won't stop you from staying in touch with Ashton, but make sure you don't do it so blatantly when the family is around. And also…"She hesitate

Power and influence weren't built in a day, after all."Master Gray, have you heard of the Curios Chamber?" Nadine smiled as she stepped up behind Ashton again. Her shapely curves pressed lightly against his back while she kneaded his shoulders, her eyes gleaming with allure. It was as if she were ready to pledge herself to him at any moment.Ashton nodded. "I've heard a bit. It's supposed to be a global powerhouse."Nadine said, "The Curios Chamber is one of the most elite forces in the world. They have a presence in nearly every major city, but they're never open to the public. Entrance is strictly invitation-only. Members can participate in auctions and bids there. Inside the Curios Chamber, you'll find almost any rare artifact you can imagine."Ashton's eyes glinted. "That impressive?""It's a top-tier, global organization, after all. If you want to auction your top-grade pills, the Curios Chamber is hands-down the best place." Nadine continued, "I've worked with the chamber

Wanda's intuition told her she'd struck gold. Anyone capable of crafting top-grade pills was a rare master, even at the Curios Chamber. Even the head of the branch, like her, wasn't qualified to host someone like that. Senior executives would personally welcome a client of that caliber."Mr. Gray, please have a seat!" Wanda looked at Ashton as if he were her ticket to promotion. Her cold, aloof demeanor vanished. A warm, flattering smile took its place, and she even tossed him a playful wink. She had to win over this VIP—this was her big break!Ashton nodded, totally getting her excitement. A single top-tier pill could make major factions scramble. Its value spoke for itself, let alone the person who could refine it.Wanda's smile was bright, her voice rich and velvety. The sky-blue dress hugged her figure, accentuating a graceful, alluring silhouette. "Mr. Gray, you're here today to auction these three top-grade pills, right?"Ashton nodded. "That's right. Besides that, I'm also l

"Wanda, can I turn around now?" Ashton asked with a grin."Huh? Oh, yeah…" Wanda straightened her clothes, smiling brightly. "Mr. Gray, you just saved my life. I don't even know how to repay you!""How about giving yourself to me?" he joked.Wanda froze, surprised by how bold and direct he was. Under his heated gaze, she fluttered her lashes. "You're such a tease, Mr. Gray. But I've already decided how to thank you, and I promise you'll be satisfied.""Still, nothing compares to giving yourself to me." Ashton kept flirting, feeling the Drakell technique surge in his body.Faced with his unblinking, almost predatory look, Wanda's heart skipped a beat. She cleared her throat and said, "Mr. Gray, we should head out.""Alright. Let's go." He knew when to quit while he was ahead."Wanda, how are you?" Nadine, who'd been waiting outside, asked."Thanks to Mr. Gray, my old injury is completely healed," Wanda said with a charming smile."Master Gray is amazing, right?" Nadine beamed,
