The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Throw him behind bars and toss away the keys
The consensus amongst the public was that with her current fame, Celia Rodriguez was destined to be a superstar who would make waves across not just the country but the world.She had everything that was needed to do so and that was why people were bending over backwards to have a relationship with her.The women were jealous and the men were fighting just for a chance to be with her.Meanwhile, Celia didn't pay much attention to the commotion that her presence had caused as she was used to it by now.Why wouldn't they adore her?... She was Celia Rodriguez, the next big thing in the entertainment industry.She felt that whatever she wanted, she could get, and tonight, the highlight of today's event, which was the plot of land that Lucas had promised her, would surely come into her possession. Just then, Lucas got down from the car as well, immediately drawing attention as the attendees began to murmur among themselves.“Isn't that Lucas Vazquez?”“That's him for sure. What is he doin
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Blinded by ambition
Celia glanced towards the person to find that it was Victoria Smith causing her to wonder who Victoria was referring to as her benefactor.There's no way it was William, right?Meanwhile, Victoria quickly arrived next to William and placed an arm around his own, catching everyone off guard, including William.Before now, when Victoria had learned that William was being confronted by his ex-wife, she thought about not getting involved, after all, it could be considered a family matter.But then, recalling how he had saved her daughter when it wasn't his place to do so and how he had saved her from Scar when it also wasn't his place to do so, caused her to feel indebted to him.Hence the reason she decided to support William and to drive the point home that fighting with William was the same as fighting with her, she decided to link arms with him, giving off the impression that he was her date for the night. Naturally, this drew the attention of the guests in attendance as well as the
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates The name is James
“Blinded by ambition?” Celia snorted. “Perhaps you are the one that lacks it. Else, what sane man would decide to be a kept man while his wife dominates the world?”William offered no response, not because he didn't have one but because he saw no need to give one.He was a man who had achieved everything and only wished to rest.He had used what he had to place Celia in her current position yet she ignored that, thinking that she was dominating the entertainment industry due to her hard work.Celia sneered thinking that she had struck a nerve in William. “Cat caught your tongue?” “I do hope that you do not fall now that you have gotten so high. It would be a shame.” William calmly replied causing Celia to retort.“You don't have to worry about that because that's never going to happen.”“You sound so sure.” “Because I am,” Celia said before shifting her attention to Victoria. “So you can enjoy your boy toy until you get tired of him, which you will, mind you, after which, just like

“Of course!” James exclaimed arrogantly before turning to Victoria. “How about you accompany me for the rest of the night, young miss?... I believe we have more in common than you can imagine.”Not missing the insult he snuck into his words, William remarked. “I have been courteous to you so far, Mr. Wilson; I ask that you do the same.”“Unfortunately, I can't. You see, unlike every other person in this room, I am a man of substance who has served as the stock advisor of several companies for years. I could get you kicked out of here if I wanted with a simple snap of my hands so you'd best keep shut.”By now, their exchange had already drawn the attention of guests as they watched the showdown, enthralled by the drama unfolding.Victoria seemed amused as she inquired. “Do you know who William is?”“I do but I have no idea why he is regarded as such a big deal. A doctor is still a doctor, no matter how good he is. How much could he possibly have?”Victoria ignored him as she turned to
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Bidding war
“There's no way that good for nothing has 1.5 million saved up, right?” Ava asked as she stared at William.He had just made a bid, catching her as well as Lucas off guard as they thought of him as a poor man who needed Celia to survive.Celia however, remarked. “Well, he was once a well-known medical practitioner, so it's no surprise that he has a bit of money saved up.”“That's true.” Lucas nodded in agreement. “Which means he is most likely utilizing everything he has.”“How foolish. Instead of him to save himself, he is thinking about saving children.” Ava said in a mocking tone. “I'm sure he is only trying to do this to entice Miss Smith.”Celia snorted. “Heh, if that's his plan, then he is beyond foolish.”“I agree. The Smith family is a wealthy family capable of buying whatever they want whenever they want. Does he think that a meager 1.5 can make an impression on the heiress of such a reputable family?” As the trio continued to gossip about William, the auctioneer replied to
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates People are allowed to be stupid
In truth, Victoria was also surprised that William would place such a bid as she didn't expect him to have that amount of money but it seemed she was wrong.In truth, William had no idea the exact amount he had in his savings account, but he knew one thing, and that was that he was wealthier than everyone else in the auction hall!All because he never really needed money, he never bothered to check his balance but at the very least, his account had ten billion dollars in it!“And if he doesn't?... Have you forgotten that I am here?” Victoria shot back, catching Ava off guard.She was surprised as she glanced at Celia, expecting some form of support.The next instant, Celia loudly said, drawing attention to herself. “80.”Finally, William turned in her direction but instead of annoyance, his eyes seemed to hold a trace of mockery in them toward her. “100.” William calmly remarked before adding. “Tread lightly, Miss Rodriguez, you might end up falling into serious debt if you continue.
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates The name is Jared
It didn't take long for Mr. Kingsley to arrive only to pause as he immediately sensed the tense atmosphere.Unsure of the reason behind this, he approached Celia. “Miss Celia, I had no idea you were here as well. In truth, I had begun to wonder why William was alone. It's good to know that you both are still together.”Before Celia or anyone else could respond, Ava remarked. “Do you live under a rock?... Don't you know that my sister has divorced that good for nothing?”Mr. Kingsley froze as he didn't realize that such a thing had happened.The news was indeed all of social media but he did not frequent social media as he was more of a retro individual.Hence the reason he was unaware of such a development.“I… had no idea.” He said as he glanced back at William who nodded in response.“Ava, that's no way to speak to Mr. Kingsley.” Celia lightly said with Ava snorting in response.“Well, he should learn to get his facts straight instead of perpetuating lies.”“That's enough.” William

“Didn't you just hear that she's not interested?... Stop bothering us and get lost.” Ava said.“And if I don't want to?” Jared inquired.“Then don't blame me for making you regret it,” Lucas said as he shoved him back.How could he stand back and do nothing while some bastard was making a move on his girl?Seeing an opportunity to make a good impression on Celia after the unfortunate debacle at the auction, Lucas didn't hesitate to take it.‘You will be my path back into Celia's heart.’ Lucas thought as he came to stand between Celia and Jared.Jared chuckled, clearly amused by Lucas' bravado.“What's so funny, fucker?” Lucas asked, already preparing to utilize his power as a cultivator to land a devastating blow to defeat Jared.Jared replied with a smirk. “Isn’t it amusing watching a rat bear its fangs to a lion?”“Who are you calling a rat?” Lucas glared at Jared.“You, of course,” Jared said. “Bastard, you are asking for it!” Lucas bellowed as he threw a punch only for Jared to c

Uncovering an affair
“Bastard, you’re humiliating me in public. I’ve got to teach you a lesson! Lee, beat him up!” Miranda flew into a rage and ordered the young bodyguard standing behind her to hit William.However, the bodyguard named Lee was rooted to the floor, his face pale.Cold sweat dripped down his face.“Lee, what are you still standing there for? Do something!” Miranda shouted.“What’s going on?!”At that moment, a middle–aged man suddenly walked in.Two burly bodyguards trailed behind him.“Huh Isn’t that Sir Oscar? What is he doing here?”“That seems to be his wife, Miranda Storm. A good show is about to go down!”“Sir Oscar is known for spoiling his wife. It seems like that punk is going to get it today!”The restaurant broke into a heated discussion when the middle–aged man appeared.“Honey, you’re finally here!” The moment Miranda saw him, she immediately ran into his arms and started to sob. “That guy kept bullying me earlier. You have to help me!”“Who’s the bastard brave enough to bully
Just a cold?
“Oscar is the chairman of the Dynamic Bank and a renowned tycoon in Avalon.” Zara explained.“Oh, I see…” William nodded.“It’s not known to others, but Sir Storm is actually suffering from an illness. He’s seen many doctors. but none of them could cure him. You are an excellent healer, so I invited you here to meet him. I think he’ll be here soon,” Zara explained.As the two were talking, a female voice suddenly sounded from behind them. “Why, isn’t it Ms. Khan?”Turning her head, Zara saw an elegant woman dressed up to the nines in an extravagant custom–made evening gown walking toward her, carrying a Birkin handbag.“Oh, it’s you, Mrs. Storm. Where’s Mr. Storm?” Zara glanced left and right.“What, do you miss my Oscar that much? Ever since the last time you saw him, your heart is still set on him, huh?” Miranda Storm said sarcastically.She had never liked Zara.It was because Zara was an outstanding individual.Not only was she born into a wealthy family, but she was also gorgeous
Harold's reckoning
“Why should I help you?” Stefan questioned.William smirked. “Because it helps us both. The Ghost Army Sect coming to Avalon only means that it won't be long before things go to shit and that would be terrible for business, right?”Stefan nodded in agreement, well aware of what the Ghost Army were capable of.They were monsters wearing human skin, not to be regarded as ordinary men.Even he who dabbled in the underworld wouldn't dare to engage with them.“How can I trust that if they come for me, I'll be safe?”William replied. “You will.”As he said that, he released his spiritual pressure which caused the entire Hendricks manor to tremble as though it has been hit by an earthquake.Then, William stood up, and although he had a smile on his face, Stefan somehow felt a chilliness surging from the bottom of his heart.Stefan didn’t react for a long time, even after William and John left.He reckoned that his assumption of William being the real murderer and attempting to seek revenge o
The mastermind is revealed
William smiled faintly. “What? Mr. Hendricks, are you trying to threaten me? So much for bringing a gift for you.”“Gift?” Stefan narrowed his eyes with suspicion.He wasn’t that naive to think that William would really bring him any gift.Given the current relationship between the two parties, he would have had someone break William’s limbs this morning if not for his connection with the Smith family.He reckoned that William was well aware of this too.William didn’t say much either. He raised his hand and tossed the killer behind him.The heavy corpse fell to the ground, revealing the look of panic and horror that had already stiffened on his face.There was a hole in the middle of his eyebrows, from which blood was gushing out endlessly.Clearly, the corpse belonged to a person who had just died.Greatly startled, Stefan and the rest of the Hendricks family subconsciously took two steps back.Many of them even exclaimed in astonishment.But Stefan had been through all sorts of sit
Get lost
However, regardless of the reason, the killer panicked in the face of impending death and hurriedly said, “Don’t… don’t kill me! I’ll tell you anything you want to know! Yes, it was a young man named Harold O'Malley who gave me a hundred and fifty thousand to get me to help him kill Paul Hendricks without leaving a trace! If you have any other questions, I will definitely tell you everything I know! Just don’t kill me! Please… ah!”William frowned and picked a small stone on the table next to him.Then he flicked it at the killer.Like a bullet out of a gun, the marble-sized stone directly pierced through the brow of the killer, making him stop speaking.He would never have the chance to say anything again in his life.If the killer could be as tough as he was at the beginning and abide by the rules of his industry, perhaps William would have still thought highly of him.But William didn’t see the need to be kind to someone who was greedy for money, afraid of death, and would kill any
Fishing out the real culprit
Paul and Victoria had previously been engaged, and through his intuition, William sensed that there might be some kind of connection between the two.The most direct speculation William made was that someone didn’t want the marriage alliance between the Smiths and the Hendricks to happen.The killer in black sneered and said adamantly, “Do you think I will tell you? In our line of work, the rule of thumb is to keep our lips sealed about our clients’ information. I won’t tell even if you kill me!”William raised his eyebrows.The killer seemed to be quite a person of principle.But seeing the panic on his face that he couldn’t hide, William reckoned that he probably wouldn’t be as tight-lipped as he claimed to be.If subjected to some torture methods, he certainly wouldn’t be so unrelenting.William had more than a hundred ways to force this killer to speak.But William really couldn’t be bothered.“The person who sent you to kill Paul Hendricks is Harold O'Malley, right?” William sudd
Just be careful
Victoria was irked by his interrogative tone, and she retorted aggressively, “What does his death have to do with me? I only just found out about his death! Besides, I became an adult long ago, and it’s my freedom to be with anyone I want. You have no right to interfere with my life!”She had already guessed through her father’s words that many people must have suspected that William was the culprit behind Paul’s death.But she wasn’t sure if this matter had anything to do with him for now and thus obviously wouldn’t expose the fact that the young man was William.Sir Smith was infuriated. “You unfilial daughter, how dare you speak to me like that?! Wait for me in Avalon. Don’t go anywhere. I’ll rush there right now. When I arrive, you’ll come with me to see the Hendricks and explain everything clearly!”With that, he hung up lividly.Victoria put down the phone and began to feel ill at ease.Does Paul’s death really have something to do with William?If he’s really the culprit, the H
Paul Hendricks is dead!?
“What did you say? William Belmont?!” Stefan’s eyes suddenly widened, and he instantly stood up with a look of disbelief.The middle-aged man didn’t dare to delay and quickly said, “According to the statements of Paul’s friends, William Belmont appeared on Twin Peaks Mountain, and he was called there by Victoria Smith. He had an intense conflict with Paul. There are more than twenty people who can testify!... Although there’s no direct evidence that he’s related to the car accident that happened to Paul, he’s very suspicious! That’s because Paul has a great feud with William Belmont, and he even hired a hitman to kill him. But he failed in the end, so William Belmont very likely bears a strong grudge against Paul. That’s why he killed him on his way back to the city!”The Hendricks family had actually heard a little about the grudge between Paul and William because of Victoria.But no one expected that the feud between the two would intensify to the point that Paul would hire a hitman
Assasinated
Of course the fact that he lost left a bad taste in his mouth and so, Paul wasn’t in the mood to stay at Twin Peaks Mountain any longer and drove back home.He reckoned that he would definitely figure out how to deal with William after asking his brother, father, or grandfather about it once he got home.Twin Peaks Mountain was located in the outskirts of Avalon, far away from the city center.When he was passing through a section of deserted woods, the street lights on both sides of the road suddenly went out all at once.“Damn it!” Paul was shocked, and he was in complete darkness.His car was the only one on the road.For some reason, he had an extremely ominous hunch, and he felt that something dangerous was about to happen.Paul got the creeps and subconsciously turned up the volume of the rock music playing on the car stereo in a bid to relieve the panic within him with the noise.At the same time, he also floored the gas pedal and drove out of the blacked-out area at top speed.
