Ashton couldn't be bothered to respond to Roxy's interrogation."Mommy, it was Daddy who saved me. Don't scold Daddy," Celia said through the phone.Hearing that, Roxy became even more outraged. "Ashton! You're even lying to a child now! It was Calvin who called the police and saved us. How dare you have the audacity to take credit for it yourself? How shameless have you become?"You really are stooping so low just to get custody of Celia! Ashton, I order you to return Celia to my house immediately!"She was reminded of how she'd been bound and threatened by those criminals earlier, so she took all of her anger out on Ashton.However, he simply ended the call."Ashton!" Roxy screeched.How dare he end the call on her! That was outrageous!"Ashton is nothing but a piece of trash, Roxy! You need to cut all ties with him completely!" Calvin seized the opportunity to vilify Ashton further.Eunice approached Roxy and asked, "What's wrong, Ms. Sloan?"Swiftly composing herself, Rox

The strength of an SS-ranked expert was equivalent to that of a supreme grandmaster!Hector wasn't the only one thunderstruck this time. Even Kayla looked shocked. If Ashton truly was an SS-ranked expert, then he had to be one of the finest among men. Considering his abilities, he would receive a grand welcome no matter where he went!"Grandpa, don't tell me you're thinking of recruiting Ashton into the Legion?" Kayla said.Lawrence didn't answer. After a brief silence, he said, "It seems I need to meet this Ashton in person."Hector was stunned. Lawrence was the head of the organization, but he wanted to personally invite Ashton to join the Legion?…Meanwhile, over at the Paradise Estate, Walter was still awake, waiting for news regarding the situation over at the East Port."Dad!" Louie cried out as he came rushing over. "According to reliable sources, the entire Wraiths organization has been wiped out—every last one of them slaughtered!"Walter's eyes gleamed. "Are you sure

Ashton turned off the lights before holding Sylvia close in his arms. He didn't say anything. It was Sylvia who kept sharing about the love and longing she'd felt for him all these years…"I've got too much I want to tell you, Ashton. I'm at my happiest whenever I'm with you…" Sylvia continued to speak softly.Eventually, she fell soundly asleep with a smile on her face.The night passed quietly.…The next morning, Sylvia stirred awake, her eyes still bleary. When she realized that Ashton was beside her, she couldn't resist wrapping her arms around him and kissing him fiercely.Looking rather excited, she exclaimed, "I thought it'd been just another dream last night, Ashton. It was so lovely that I didn't want to wake up!"Sylvia was just as alluring as ever after waking up. Ashton said gently, "If this is your dream, I'll make sure it lasts for you."Her eyes shone. She had a feeling that it wouldn't be long before she won him over. At last, she could see the hope of finally

Ashton had indeed promised Sylvia he'd look out for Melody. She'd once mentioned to him that some of Melody's friends clearly had ulterior motives for spending time with her. Considering that Melody wasn't very bright, it was quite easy for her to end up in a sticky situation."Fine," Ashton said."Great!" Melody chirped excitedly.She knew her friends well. When the time came, she was certain they would humiliate Ashton thoroughly—especially her sharp-tongued friend, Sally. Sally would surely judge him harshly and mortify him. She could hardly wait to see Ashton get humiliated."No backing out now!" Melody added before skipping back to her room.…In the evening, Melody got herself all dolled up. When she noticed that Ashton was still just wearing an ordinary shirt, she snapped disdainfully, "Don't you have any other clothes, Ashton?""I've got enough to wear.""Whatever. Let's go."Soon, Melody led Ashton to a private, members-only club. She gave her name, and someone esco

After a pause, Trent said to Melody, "We'll be going for round two later, Melody, but I think the guy you brought doesn't seem to fit in with us very well. Why don't you send him back first? Otherwise, it'll seem like we're all ganging up to cast him out on purpose.""Hah! He sure is shameless. I can't believe he's still sitting here. If I were in his shoes, I would've left by now!" Connie sneered.Sally chimed in, "Maybe he can't bear to leave after seeing a beauty like me."Laughter erupted across the room.Melody raised an eyebrow and glanced at Ashton, who remained completely indifferent. Her tone was harsh as she said, "I shouldn't have brought you here today. Go back. You're not needed here anymore!""Why do you think I haven't left yet? It's only because I promised Sylvia I'd keep an eye on you," Ashton said, shaking his head. "You've had enough fun. It's time for us to go.""I haven't had enough fun yet!" Melody retorted with a scoff. "You can head on back yourself first.
