The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Go home, Victoria
Terrence turned back and glanced at William, who had remained silent all this while.He had an expression of indifference on his face as if he had known this would happen all along.Who was this man, and why was Secretary Gray treating him with such respect?“Arrest all the other men as well!” Secretary Gray barked an order.Terrence and Rick’s men were all apprehended.Rick and Terrence stared at each other in despair.It was obvious that they would have to pay for their crimes.“What–What’s happening?” Victoria couldn’t wrap her head around the plot twist.She expected trouble when Secretary Gray appeared.Unexpectedly Secretary Gray did not find fault with them.Furthermore, he fired Rick and threw him into prison.Who could have expected Secretary Gray to do such a thing to his own son–in–law?“Are you William? I can tell that you are a capable young man.”After he had tied up the loose ends, Secretary Gray walked up to William with a rare smile on his stern face.“Indeed I am, Se

According to his research, not only would the pharmaceutical project go on to become a major powerhouse in the pharmaceutical industry, but it also had the potential to grow to become even larger than what the Khan family currently had. This was why Clinton was so hellbent on getting the leadership role for the project.It was sure that he would become a billionaire from it. Being the top dog in Avalon wouldn’t be a farfetched dream by that time. “Clinton, don’t get ahead of yourself. If you want my support as well as that of my colleagues, first, you would have to provide us with a stake in the project and all future profits. Secondly, loyalty is paramount. Do you understand?” Evans said sternly.“I will remember your advice, Mr. Jones!” Clinton nodded.While talking, they were interrupted by a commotion from the gardens. The noise sounded like a cacophony of curses and cries of pain.“What’s going on?” Clinton frowned.At this moment, a bodyguard rushed into the room, his face pa
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Crippled
“I'll give you one chance to redeem yourself.” William coldly remarked. “If you cripple yourself and leave Avalon for good, I will not exert my vengeance against you. Know that the only reason for this offer is because of your relationship with Victoria.”“Are you kidding?” Clinton couldn't help but explode with mocking laughter, after what he could only regard as William's foolishness.“Hmm.”“Who do you think you are?” Clinton asked. “You seem to have received quite the beating in prison which is why you are spouting such rubbish.”“Will you bit comply?” William questioned, his expression turning even colder.“Hmmph, it seems like you don't understand the dynamics between us. You are nothing while I am a member of the Smith family. If I killed you here right now, no one would say anything!... Of course, I'm not one to hold grudges. As long as you agree to my demands, I'll consider letting you go.”“And if I say no?” William asked as he took another step forward.Clinton snorted. “Th

Clinton struggled to understand what was so special about William that everything was going his way.Unfortunately, he would never be able to understand and for that reason, his fear towards William grew.Realizing he was a goner considering he'd been abandoned by the Smith family, his eyes turned lifeless as if his soul had left his body. Clinton knew that he was a goner.No one would save him, nor did they dare to.“Take him away!” John ordered his men to bind Clinton up.Despite knowing the truth, Clinton could never leave prison.There was only one way to leave.That is, being carried out for cremation after death.“Stop right there! What are you doing? Leave that man alone!”At that moment, Evans appeared with his two female bodyguards and approached them aggressively.Initially, he hadn’t planned on getting involved.However, Clinton was such an incompetent Idiot!How could he lose the fight?Evans was forced to intervene before that knucklehead got himself locked up.At any ra

William’s words made Evans step back in fear, as he was unprepared for a fight.It would be troublesome if William decided to follow through with what he said.“I’m going to remember this, punk! I’m not done with you!” Seeing as the situation was unfavorable, Evans and his bodyguards left in a hurry with their tails between their legs.A wise man knew better than to fight when the odds were against him.With his noble status, it wasn’t worth it to put his life on the line. Once he was gone, William asked John. “You aren't familiar with him?”“Not at all. I'm guessing he's a new face. Regardless, I can handle it. Do you want him dead?” John replied. “Keep an eye on him. If he steps out of line, let me know.” William said after which he took his leave with John following closely behind.***The next morning.Celia was preparing to leave the house to meet with Harold when she got a call on her phone.She glanced at the screen only for her demeanor to shift as she gulped hard before pro
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Cheap wine
“Granddad, look at this.” Andre pulled up a decorated box of wine. “Harold brought this beautiful wine over, a fine Chateau Mouton-Rothschild 1945. We should all toast with this!”“Chateau Mouton-Rothschild 1945? That’s a really expensive wine, no?”“Yes, it is. It was three hundred thousand dollars a bottle!” Harold boasted.“What? Three hundred thousand dollars a bottle?!” everyone exclaimed in shock. The sky-high price had been way beyond their expectations.The Rodriguez family was pretty well–off, but even they hadn’t had a chance to try something this expensive.“Why’d you spend all that money on this, Harold? It’s too much, no?” Ava questioned, though pride laced her tone.“Three hundred thousand isn’t much. I have another barrel of this at home, so please, you all enjoy,” Harold said with a prideful grin.“Mr. O'Malley, you’re really generous.”“Yeah, we’re really in for a treat tonight!”The family began praising Harold for his wine, feeding his ego further.“Hey, boy, look a
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Ambrosia
After hearing what Ava had to say, Diego scowled and retired. “Such ignorance!... I've lived for more years than you have!... Do you think you are wiser than me?”“No, that's not…” Ava tried to explain only to be sharply cut off by Diego.“Listen here, I once had the privilege of tasting just half a glass of this at a noble family's home and I've never forgotten it!”The family turned to stare at William, who remained composed and said. “This wine lives up to its name as Ambrosia.”Diego nodded approvingly. “Well said, my boy. Now then, about the rest of the wine, hand it over quickly.”Chuckling, William calmly handed over the bottle and Diego's breathing quickened with excitement.He fought the urge to snatch the bottle from William,. exclaiming in vivid excitement. “Oh my, there's still a lot of it left. This would fetch nearly a million dollars on the market. You are quite generous!”“Dad, is this cheap wine really as amazing as you are claiming?” Celia's father asked skeptically.

Celia frowned and said. “William, you may know something about medicine as a doctor but the medicinal pill is a closely guarded secret of the Heavenly Orchard. Claiming you know about it is ridiculous.”Harold, who has been watching with a smile, chimed in, “Since William claims my pill is fake, perhaps he could explain exactly how?”“A fake is a fake. What more explanation is needed?” William retorted. Harold sighed with feigned patience. “William, I think there's been a misunderstanding. Perhaps you are upset about Celia and me, but this pill was obtained at great expense through my connections at Heavenly Orchard. Don't you think it's going too far to insult my sincere gift like this?”His words immediately stirred the family's sympathy as they glared at William in disgust.Ava scolded. “William, if you can't say anything nice, then you are welcome to leave!”“That's enough, William!... It's one thing to be incompetent but being unable to accept others' success makes you truly pat

Go to hell!
William, to pass the time, sat off to the side, looking more like a bystander to the match than a participant.Soon enough, Steven and Conrad finished their sparring match with theatrical flourishes, removing their gloves and bowing to their female audience. “Steven, your taekwondo skills have improved tremendously during your time abroad. You must be close to the professional level now!” Conrad exclaimed.Steven chuckled modestly. “Well, between my studies, I managed to reach an eighth-degree black belt. It's nothing too special.”Conrad gasped. “Eighth degree?... Holy, that's incredible!... No wonder I could only last two rounds against you!... You must be tougher than most professionals!”“Don't sell yourself short, Conrad. At least you held out for two rounds. With my rank, I'm probably as good as it gets around these parts.”“Steven, you are just amazing. A black belt at such a young age, that's unbelievable!” Conrad praised. William's head was spinning from their ridiculous mu
Cold-blooded
When Elena finally stopped, Celia’s face was swollen and blotched, with streaks of blood coming out the corner of her mouth.“Why? Why?” Celia asked breathlessly, trying to regain her bearings.“You dare to ask why? Are you unaware of what you have done, you bitch!” Elena reached forCelia’s hair again and slammed her head hard to the ground.Blood gushed out immediately. A mixture of blood and wine dripped down Celia’s face.The sight of Celia lying on the ground and unable to get up did not garner any sympathy from Elena; in fact, it seemed to excite her.She raised her leg and stomped hard on Celia’s palm.“Ah!” Celia could finally hold in no longer, and a shriek escaped her. A piercing pain overtook her senses.“You shameless tramp! You like flirting around with other men, don’t you? I’d like to see if you’d ever seduce my boyfriend again!” A crazed smile crept up on Elena’s face as she repeatedly stepped on Celia’s hand with her stilettos.Each time, it struck with greater bruta
Rough and ruthless
The crowd was collectively taken aback by the accusation, If the culprit had been a creep, they would have gone ahead and taught him a lesson.But it turns out that the person whom Elena had accused of stealing her belongings was an enchanting beauty.Everyone was at a loss.“Isn’t that the popular actress Celia Rodriguez? Why would she steal?”“Exactly! Everyone knows Ms. Rodriguez. She wouldn’t stoop so low, would she?”“One may know a person for a long time without understanding his true nature. Who knows what vile Intentions this lady is hiding behind her glamorous appearance?”The men were generally doubtful of Elena’s accusation, whereas the ladies trusted her fully.“Miss Kingston, there must be some sort of misunderstanding. I have not stolen anything.”Celia took a moment to regain her composure before denying Elena’s accusation.She had never thought that Elena would pin it on her.“A quick search should easily be able to tell us whether or not you did it.” A faint smile gra
A sister's betrayal
But Elena ignored her outstretched hand and stared unwaveringly at her necklace.“That necklace, where did you get them from?” she asked icily.“My boyfriend gave them to me. It's custom made so you won’t be able to find a similar one out there. But of course, Miss Kingston, if you fancy them, I can give them to you.” Ava was secretly delighted.“Even the daughter of the wealthiest man can’t resist this necklace,” she thought to herself.“Boyfriend?”Elena’s expression clouded over. “Is it Harold O'Malley?”The reason why she asked was because she had received the exact necklace from Harold as compensation for what he'd done at the car dealership.“Oh! Do you know Harold too, Miss Kingston?... In that case, we’re friends too!” Ava’s eyes lit up.Who knew that a necklace would be the key to her success?“Who’s your friend? Bitch!”Elena glared at Ava and struck her across the face.A loud, crisp sound was heard.Ava was at a loss as she held her cheek in her hand. “Miss Kingston, why d

“Watch your mouth, asshat!” Harold coldly said only for William to raise a brow with his hands in his pocket.Snorting derisively, William soon left with Victoria while Harold could only stare at Victoria's endowed behind. Clicking his tongue as he struggled to understand why William was always so lucky with the ladies, Harold turned to leave only to get a call at that moment.Furrowing his brows, he picked it up only to discover that it was Elena Kingston.He went wide-eyed in an instant as he had a feeling that something bad was about to happen.Trembling, he answered the call. “Hello.”“Harold, you bastard!... How dare you do this?... What the hell are you doing at Magnificent Club with some other bitch!... Have you forgotten that I'm the one that got you the invite, yet you are spending it on another woman?”“That…”“I'm on my way there right now and if it turns out that you are there, don't think that you'll be able to survive my wrath!” After saying that, the call ended, leavi
This isn't over
Starting with the first thug, William dealt with each one without mercy, ensuring that by the time he was down to the last man, the thug had already wet himself in fright, his body trembling as he stared wide-eyed at William as though he were a demon.“You are the one they mentioned.” The thugs remarked as he took a step back.“Hmm?”“I knew your face was familiar, you are William Belmont.”William was surprised and asked. “You know me?”The thug gulped anxiously. “Yes, of course!... Mr. Belmont, I'm so sorry, this is all a misunderstanding.”Then, he yanked off his mask, revealing a face covered in scars.“I'm Bobby and I work for the Sinister Six.”“I see.” “I'm sorry, sir; if we had known it was you, we wouldn't have dared to come near you!”The other thugs finally caught on, realizing that the man they had been sent after was no small individual.They swiftly scrambled to their feet to apologize. “This is a huge misunderstanding!”“Please, have a smoke, Mister Belmont. We were b
I've got a job for you
After apologizing to William, Celia's father turned to Ava and Andre. “William here has warned us that the pill was fake and dangerous, but you two were the loudest objectors. I don't even know what to say about your foolishness anymore.”,Ava and Andre stood awkwardly with lowered heads.To think that their father had done the same thing but he was blaming them alone. The doctor's ears perked up at this exchange as he asked with a frown. “Pill?... Are you, by any chance, talking about a medicinal pill from the Heavenly Orchard?”Ava thought the doctor might have some insight and eagerly replied. “Yes, it's exactly that. Doctor, you can tell that the pill grandpa took was a genuine pill, right?”“Hmm, well…”“Heh, I knew it couldn't be fake since Harold got them directly from Heavenly Orchard. It's perfectly normal for Grandpa to faint. His body was just too weak for such powerful medicine.”Ava had already begun to toot her own horn, only for her analysis to be met with a cold laugh
Ava, shut up
William didn't owe the Rodriguez family anything and if not for his relationship with Diego, he wouldn't even be breaking bread with them.He could be anywhere else and he wouldn't have to go through the humiliation they put him through.Yet, time and again, he had been forced to step up and get them out of trouble, only to end up getting insulted.At this point in time, he was all but done with taking things lying down.He didn't wish to show the side he only showed to those he hated, but the Rodriguez family was pushing him closer to that line every single time their paths crossed. “William, please,” Celia muttered, only to receive a cold glare from him, causing her to back away in fright.Then, without saying anything, he stepped forward and quickly pressed several pressure points on Diego's body to stop the bleeding.With some therapeutic massage, Diego's breathing eventually steadied. If not for his good relationship with Diego and the fact that the old man was nothing like his
