All Chapters of Divorced and Dominant: Now You Cry?: Chapter 481 - Chapter 490

Just as Damian finished speaking, a blur flashed before his eyes.In the blink of an eye, Ashton appeared right in front of him. He raised his arm, spread his fingers, and slapped Damian hard across the face.The smack rang out crisp and loud, shocking everyone present.Plenty of people at the Curios Chamber's auction recognized Damian, the most distinguished scion in Javonbury. And yet, the golden boy had just been slapped in public."Who's that? He's out of his mind!""No clue. I heard he didn't even have an invitation and tried to force his way in!""What? That's suicide. And now, he's striking a guest invited by the Curios Chamber? Guess he thinks he's immortal.""You really see all sorts of people everywhere!"A chorus of whispers buzzed in Damian's ear. But no matter what was said, all he heard was mockery.The humiliation made his eyes bloodshot. This was the second time now!"Ashton Gray! How dare you hit me!" Damian roared. "I'm the Curios Chamber's platinum-tier gue

Wanda scoffed. "You actually have the nerve to ask that, huh? Is this the hospitality you show to an honored guest of the Curios Chamber? Get lost!""Got it, Ms. Shepherd!"In that instant, the 12 formidable experts encircling Ashton stepped back without any hesitation.Samuel's heart skipped a beat as he murmured, "H-How could he be an honored guest? He doesn't even possess an invitation to the Curios Chamber—"Wanda struck Samuel hard across the face again before bellowing, "Why would someone as good-looking as my brother require an invitation? Ashton may move freely throughout the Curios Chamber! Got it?"How could Ashton be Wanda's brother when one was a Gray and the other a Shepherd? There had never been any public record or even a rumor of Wanda having a younger brother.Wanda asked with a smile, "Do you have an issue with how Ashton is like a brother to me?" "O-Of course not!" Samuel replied, his face a mask of pure, unadulterated terror. He was screaming internally, cur

Clay intended to seek his revenge on Ashton after obtaining the Energy Condensation Pill, erasing his previous shame and reclaiming Kayla. He never imagined that their paths would cross so soon in such a bitter twist of fate tonight.Eunice spotted Clay, her eyes narrowing. "That's the future head of the Dominion Vanguard. He was said to have suffered a major setback at the hands of Mr. Clarkson Senior. How could he harbor such hatred toward Ashton, then?"Eunice held a basic rank in the Legion, so she lacked the security clearance required to access many of their more classified secrets.Roxy's gaze shifted slightly as she took in her surroundings. She felt that being at the Curios Chamber auction tonight had broadened her horizons yet again. She knew then that she had to push her abilities to new heights without delay.Two exquisite women were currently attending to Ashton. He paused briefly when he heard Clay's furious shout and glanced over. He then smiled faintly and raised

"Do you really find this amusing, Ashton? You ought to know that 17 million dollars is nothing to me! You're not the one seeing a dime of that extra cash anyway!" Roxy snapped. She finally received the Rejuvenation Pill with a mask of indifference, completely lacking the joy of a successful bidder.Ashton grinned mischievously. "It's certainly amusing! I mean, for all you know, I could be the one who concocted that Rejuvenation Pill of yours.""How could someone like you possibly concoct a top-grade pill? How shameless of you, Ashton!" Eunice snapped.Ashton didn't bother to argue with Eunice. He looked at Roxy's frigid expression and said with a sneer, "You probably have no idea that this pill is only effective for those on the path of cultivation, which means it won't be able to cure Tanya's stomach disorder. "You ought to know that she'll only live an extra few days even if you find someone to harness the pill's medicinal power for her. You've probably spent that 17 million dol

Clay saw Ashton as a complete nobody. He figured that since Ashton came from the Legion—a place notorious for its poverty—he couldn't possibly have 20 million dollars in his pocket. He was convinced that Ashton was just bluffing, trying to land a fortune without putting up a cent of his own."Mr. Gray is entitled to bid at any price, simply by virtue of occupying Private Suite No. 1!" Wanda declared firmly, siding completely with Ashton. "Do you intend to raise further, Mr. Jernigan? You ought to know that the Energy Condensation Pill will belong to Mr. Gray if you can't outmatch him!"That one sentence was all it took to ignite Clay's competitive streak. He watched Ashton closely, his mind racing to find a breaking point. He planned to raise the bid once more, wait for Ashton to overreach, and then back out, trapping him with a debt he couldn't pay.He hesitated for a moment before declaring, "I'll up it to 22 million dollars! Do you have the guts to go higher, Ashton?""I won't b
