Divorced and Dominant: Now You Cry? Novel

Chapter 317 The moment Ashton finished speaking , the entire room fell silent . An old servant helped Kenneth into a seated position on the bed , and his eyes swept across the room before landing on Ashton . " How do you know I've been afflicted with malevolent energy ? " Kenneth demanded , his face pale . " It's obvious from a single glance , " Ashton replied curtly . Sheila hurriedly said , " Dad ! Just let Ashton take a look at you . Maybe he really has the skill to save you . Natalie wouldn't lie to me ! " " Hah ! Oh , Sheila .

I can't believe you told this fling of yours about your father's condition ! Didn't your father say it must never be revealed to anyone ? The lengths you'd go to just to let your new boyfriend look good in front of everyone ! " Jane growled , her gaze hostile . " I didn't ! I didn't say a single word ! Dad , you have to believe me ! " Sheila cried out anxiously . However , Kenneth frowned , looking even more frail now . He hesitated briefly , not quite trusting someone as young as Ashton . Eventually , he said reluctantly , " Alright . I'll give him a chance . " " That's great !

" Sheila exclaimed . She then pinched Ashton , her voice dropping to a whisper . " Ashton ! You'd better be able to treat my dad , or else , I'd be humiliated alongside you ... " Scoffing , Ashton looked at Kenneth and said , " Listen up . I'm only saving you because your daughter is my woman . Otherwise , based on your initial attitude alone , I couldn't care less if you died ! " " What did you just say ? " Jane fumed . " Look at him , honey ! This is the random man of the streets that Sheila brought home ! " Kenneth was frowning as well . Just then , an ecstatic voice rang out . " Dad !

I got Dr. Nadine Fowler , the divine doctor , to come and treat you ! " Bradley Beldon , Jane's son , came walking into the room with a beautiful woman dressed in white . " Nadine Fowler , the divine doctor ? She's here in Javonbury ? " " How wonderful! If Dr. Fowler treats Mr. Beldon , he'll definitely be cured of the malevolent energy ! It truly is his lucky day !" " I can't believe the legendary divine doctor is so young and beautiful . She really looks like a goddess of some kind ! The crowd in the room murmured in awe , for Nadine's reputation preceded her . " Now that's my son !

I knew I doted on you for a reason ! " Jane exclaimed . " Honey , you're saved ! Thank goodness that random man didn't get to do anything to you yet . Who knows what would've happened otherwise ? " 1/2 Chapter 317 25 Bonus Gloating smugly , she shoved Ashton and Sheila aside , keeping them away from Kenneth . " But Dad , you agreed to let Ashton take a look at you ! " Sheila cried out frantically . " I can't believe you still want your fling to check on your father when Dr. Fowler is here , Sheila . You really don't care if your father dies , huh ? And to think how much he loves you .

You can't wait for him to die so that you can get your hands on his assets , right ? " Jane snapped harshly , leveling heavy accusations at her . Being Kenneth's second wife , she was naturally hostile against Sheila , the daughter of his first wife and Bradley's rival for the family inheritance . " That's enough ! Stop arguing , " Kenneth said before coughing . Ignoring Ashton , he turned to Nadine with a grateful expression , " Thank you for coming over , Dr. Fowler . " " It's nothing . " Nadine's expression was cool and unbothered .

She carried herself with an innate sense of arrogance , as if no one deserved even a second glance from her . She only came over to see what kind of malevolent energy Kenneth was plagued with . After all , her only interest in life was the pursuit of medicine . " Ashton , was it ? Since Dr. Fowler is here , we won't need your help , " Kenneth said . Sheila's expression dimmed . " Dad , you agreed to let Ashton give it a shot ... " 2/2 Sara Lili Sara Lili is a daring romance writer who turns icy landscapes into scenes of fiery passion.
