Divorced and Dominant: Now You Cry? Novel

2/2 Chapter 137 Calvin let out a blood - curdling scream as he was sent flying with a loud bang . Several ribs in his chest snapped , leaving him looking awful and miserable . " How dare you hit me , Ashton Gray ! " He struggled to his feet , his hair a mess . He roared like an enraged beast , but he didn't dare get too close to Ashton . " You think you're worthy of touching Sylvia with those filthy hands of yours ? " Ashton asked coldly . Sylvia gazed at him in awe and admiration . " Mr. Nell , you saw that , didn't you ? Ashton Gray has no respect for the law and is reckless beyond belief !

If he dares to hit me today , he'll resist law enforcement next and even lay hands on you ! Trash like him should be locked up as soon as possible and kept behind bars forever ! " Calvin snarled . " Seize him ! " Conrad commanded , a hideous look on his face . Ashton dared throw a punch right in front of him - that was a straight slap to his authority .

" Conrad roared .

" How dare you resist arrest , Ashton ? Do you know the consequences you face ? Aren't you afraid of additional charges and the very real prospect of spending the rest of your life behind bars ? " The tension in Evermore Club was palpable , and the air crackled with murderous intent . " Ashton , don't be impulsive . " Sylvia tugged at Ashton's sleeve . It wouldn't do for them , as regular citizens , to fight the authorities . If things blew up , the Javonbury Southern Precinct had every right to request a special task force to step in .

She said in a low voice , " Chief Nell , I'm sure there's been some misunderstanding . Evermore Club has always gone by the book . How about this ? You can be frank with me if you have any requests . Whatever the figure is , I'm willing to match it so we can be friends . " She sighed inwardly . She knew Conrad had a huge appetite , but with things spiraling like this , she had to meet his demands . Otherwise , Ashton would be in real trouble .

Assaulting law enforcement was no small matter ! " Hmph ! Now , you're lowering your stance ? " Conrad looked her up and down and hesitated briefly before flashing a lecherous grin . " Actually , there is a way out of this . Why don't you come by my place tonight , and we'll have a good , thorough discussion about Evermore Club's problems ? If our talk tonight is satisfying , we can just close this case . " His urge to conquer naturally surged when faced with a beauty like Sylvia , who was also a capable CEO .

If she were willing to serve him and hand over a hefty sum afterward , he didn't necessarily have to keep his promise to Chopter 187 +25 Bonus Calvin . Everything had its price , after all . Sylvia sensed Conrad's predatory gaze and saw his big gut . She felt sick to her stomach , but she still kept her smile in place . " How about I come see you tomorrow , Chief Nell ?

Either you come with me right now , or I make the arrest .

" Conrad read her like an open book . He had no intention of letting her delay things . When he saw her turmoil , his groin stirred . He reached out to touch her stunning face .
