All Chapters of Divorced and Dominant: Now You Cry?: Chapter 981 - Chapter 990

Supreme Club served as a symbol of Linton Island's elite, a hub for the cultured and powerful where the unrefined were never welcome. Those who managed to gain entry into the club were either those with deep pockets or significant social standing."You should just follow my cues once we step into the private room. You ought to know that this is the perfect opening to connect with the elite. You really have to aim high if you want to get anywhere in life," Carol said with a toss of her hair.Scarlett was visibly anxious as she nodded faintly. After all, everyone wanted to move up in the world.Ashton looked completely unfazed. He had stayed only because he had promised Irene to look after Scarlett and Carol. He didn't really care much, as it didn't affect his cultivation.Carol soon led Scarlett and Ashton into Private Room No. 308."You're finally here, Carol! Have a seat!"In the private room, people of all walks of life gathered, yet a single young man dominated the scene, like

"I-I…" Scarlett stammered after hearing Sully's heartless remark. She stood there in silence, her lips trembling with suppressed emotion and indignation. "You'd better convince Scarlett right now, Carol. Otherwise, if Mr. Weaver loses his temper, we're the ones who'll suffer the consequences!" Sully warned, his face clouding over with a threatening look.Carol furrowed her brow deeply but eventually caught hold of Scarlett. "I'm begging you, Scarlett. Have a drink with Mr. Weaver and keep him company for a while, and this will all be behind us."Scarlett's eyes welled up with unshed tears, her humiliation reaching its peak. She had been the victim, and yet she was forced to apologize to Raymond. She found the entire situation completely unjust."You should take a seat right here, Ms. Lowe!" Raymond called out. He sprawled across the couch, his potbelly protruding as he crossed his legs, his face twisted into a lecherous grin.Those present watched the exchange with knowing grins.

Some onlookers widened their eyes in surprise and exclaimed, "He's a martial arts expert!""It's no wonder he's so defiant! He actually has some skills to back it up! He clearly doesn't realize that Raymond is backed by the Leighton family and the Apex Martial Academy, though. He only sealed his own fate by making Raymond lose his temper!""It's getting more interesting! I'm sure someone from the Leighton family will show up soon! I heard the Sterling family and the Apex Martial Academy took over the Harmony Sect's territory after their head died, so they've become quite formidable these days!""You've crossed the wrong person. You're just digging your own grave now!"Those present didn't believe Ashton could win. After all, they were on Linton Island, and Raymond had the support of the Apex Martial Academy. There were very few factions on Linton Island that would ever risk crossing Raymond."Y-You…" Raymond stuttered, beads of sweat rolling down his face as Ashton closed in. "You

Cyrus was sharp and desperately wanted to get on Scarlett's good side, knowing that winning her over was his best shot at getting closer to Ashton. He couldn't care less about Raymond. If it made Ashton happy, he would have gladly torn the man limb from limb. Raymond—that idiot—had nearly cost Cyrus his own life. He was prepared to wipe out Raymond's entire bloodline if Ashton decided to blame him for tonight's mess."You want me to treat you like a younger brother?" Scarlett murmured, her mind reeling from the shock.It could be said that almost everyone on Linton Island was aware of how formidable and frightening the Apex Martial Academy was, and nobody dared to cross them. Cyrus, as the heir to the Apex Martial Academy, held a status that was beyond question.Scarlett would never have dreamed of trying to claim any connection to someone of Cyrus' standing, but now, Cyrus—the same man who had just pulverized Raymond—was actually pleading to be her younger brother. She found it

Cyrus knew full well he stood no chance against Zeke. He was outclassed in every way, either by their social standing or by the raw power currently facing off in the private room. Still, he was determined to go head-to-head with Zeke until the very end.He had already offended Ashton and left Ashton with a bad impression due to his mistake in the private room at Skybound Club. He couldn't afford to be a fickleminded this time, knowing that even a moment of hesitation could bring total annihilation to him and the Apex Martial Academy. After all, he couldn't forget that Ashton was powerful enough to cut down a divine realm expert with a single blade.He also knew that Ashton had already delivered massive gains to the Apex Martial Academy and offered Maddox a shot at reaching the divine realm. He didn't have to think twice about where his loyalties lay.Zeke's expression hardened. He couldn't believe Cyrus was still digging in his heels after he had made his position so clear. He cou
