Seamus fell back onto the ground and landed on his butt. The marble flooring in front of him was riddled with holes.What if any of the tea droplets managed to hit him?He dared not imagine.He thought, 'No, what kind of stunt is this? I haven't heard of it or seen anything like it."When he wanted to cast an inquiring look at Mister Lockwood, he found that the latter was stunned. He could tell that the other man was in shock."Any doubts left?"If you think you can deal with anything by yourself, I can offer you three pieces of intel. I can give you some answers to anything you want to know, if not all."Jaden's intelligence system was spread all over the world. He was good at his job.The intelligence system had been established since he was a child. After his father's improvement, coupled with the escort and assistance of the Obsidian Dragon Guards, there were almost no loopholes or flaws.Among them, the Ocula System was the most superb. Ashton was not exaggerating when he
The sudden scolding sent Alora into a daze.What?Did he call her a slut?She could not live without a man?She was only in relationships for the thrills?A thought came to her head, 'How dare this bastard spew lies about me?'Nothing happened between her and Mister Cox; the man was not who she imagined him to be. Why did he say such things?"Ashton, that's too much!""Facts are facts. I don't care why you did what you did or did those things because of your dreams and aspirations, but the damages done to me have already been done. So, it makes sense to say these words because that's just my perspective." After speaking, Ashton walked into the villa without looking back.Alora wanted to follow him but was stopped at the door by the guards.Her expression was gloomy.When she discovered Tyson had lied, her opinion of Ashton improved significantly. After learning Ashton saved her several times, she thanked him in person. After hearing his explanation, she was furious again."
Yanne was shocked.She could not tell if she was dreaming or had heard it wrong. Was that her hallucination?How could he say such a thing?She began to cry.Why? Why would he say such things just to comfort her and deceive her?"You're such a scum! I don't want to listen to such lies!""Scum? Lies?" Ashton was confused. He meant everything he said. Why would Yanne think he was lying? Also, since when was he being a scum? "Yanne, are there any misunderstandings between us?"Yanne punched him in the chest. "There's no misunderstanding. You are a scumbag. You are dating Gwen. Why would you deceive me just to comfort me? You don't want to be with me at all. You don't even like me like that.""Gwen? When was I dating her? Who is spreading rumors? I will murder them!" Ashton was annoyed."She said it herself, and I saw you flirting in the clinic. She touched your… Touch you there!" Yanne blushed."Where?" Ashton asked in a confused manner.As a result, he was kicked in the crotch
Two lips met Ashton secretly cursing himself for being an ass.Yanne was severely hurt and bloody, but he was lustful. That was terrible of him.Furthermore, Yanne had just recently become an adult and was in her first year of university. Even her great figure did not change the fact that she was young."Ouch…"Ashton accidentally touched her shoulder, causing Yanne to tremble in pain."Look at the state that you're in. If you are injured this badly, maybe we should not do this. Let's talk about it when you've fully recovered."Yanne lowered her blushing face, trying not to let Ashton from seeing her in this state."I know. I will take all the needed medication to recover sooner."By the way, Ash, there will be a dance rehearsal at my school in a few days. I am the main dancer. Will you come and watch my performance?"When he saw Yanne's hopeful eyes, Ashton could not refuse, so he agreed.Ashton had never considered falling in love with a student. It made him feel bad.The
"Why are you so petty? I have nothing to do with her now, and I don't want to have any entanglements with her." Ashton felt disgusted.Kendra crossed her arms and said, "I haven't lost a bet yet. I made a bet with her. I bet on whether you or that Tyson fellow will achieve greater heights in three months. Who would've known that Tyson would scam Alora and go abroad? Now I have no idea who won the bet.""So, by making me the boss of this place, it makes sense for you to win, right? Are you sure this is not cheating?" Ashton looked at her with a smile.The word cheating made Kendra a little embarrassed. She said, "You are a thousand times better than that slimy man. I should have won, but you're very non-confrontational. Everyone thinks you're leeching money off women. Aren't you mad?"I just want you to be somebody so I can win fair and square. You took over the place because it's a trade between you and Uncle Seamus. It has nothing to do with me, so how am I cheating?""Kendra, Mi
Ashton was walking ahead when a loud voice shouted, shocking him.That voice was too familiar to him.He suddenly remembered Kendra's comment that Alora's family was dining there that day. That was too coincidental.He turned to see Florence, the old hag. A shiver ran down his spine."It really is you!" Florence's face suddenly dropped, and then she sneered."Little rascal, I did not expect you to work as a waiter here. It seems like you're making it big."Hurry up and get me the menu. Otherwise, I'll complain to your manager and get you fired!"Ashton was always amazed at how Florence's brain worked. What about him made him look like a waiter?"Crazy woman! Go ahead if you want to file a complaint. No one is stopping you.""What did you say? You called me crazy?" Florence glared at him and shouted into the private room. "Alora, come out and look at this little rascal. He dared insult me!"Alora and Jose were also alarmed by the commotion outside the door and quickly got up a
Ashton tried not to laugh."You can dine here if you want and leave if you don't. If you continue to cause a scene, I'll have security escort you out.""Are you the boss here?" Florence's eyes widened."Is something the matter?" Ashton said with a smile.He smiled, but Alora and the others' faces were blank.The Divine Dining was an exceptional place. Only the cream of the crop could afford to dine there. It was generally booked for big banquets and gatherings for the rich. It was a completely different social circle.Furthermore, the market value of Divine Dining was worth tens of billions of dollars. Ashton was an incapable man with no powerful backers. How did he become the boss of the Divine Dining?Did Kendra give the place to him?Alora could only think of such a possibility. She wanted to laugh when she thought of that.She claimed that she was fair and would never cheat. She gave Ashton a top restaurant with tens of billions of dollars in market value to win the bet. S
When Alora's jaw dropped, Ashton waved his hand and said, "I did not tell you this now to ask for credit. I would've done so long ago if that was what I wanted. I'm giving you advice since your company is going to shit, and you have been deceived once too many times."Ashton thought she would reflect and possibly be grateful.However, Alora and Jose looked at each other, then at Florence and Howard, bent over, and laughed loudly."Oh, my lungs. I can't catch my breath. Ashton, such a shame you're not a comedian with the jokes you say. You can really twist the truth with that mouth of yours! You think of yourself as a savior when you're nothing but a deadbeat? You're killing me." Florence laughed as she slapped her thighs.Jose scratched his chin. "From a psychological point of view, this indicates that he craves recognition to satisfy his ego. He wants to portray an image that is far from reality."This phenomenon occurs significantly more in men than in women.""Jose, you are a
