Divorced and Dominant: Now You Cry? Novel

Chapter 395 Ashton knew he had to keep getting stronger . Only then could he protect everything he cared about . He had never forgotten that he was a stain that had to be erased and a bastard who shouldn't exist in the Drake family . The moment the secret of his Drakeborne lineage was exposed , what awaited him was the pursuit and slaughter by a super - powerful family . According to Lawrence , given the Drake family's methods , not only would Ashton be wiped out , but his bloodline would be erased as well . His daughter , in particular , would never be allowed to live .

Ashton hated this feeling of having no sense of security . What he wanted was to stand at the very peak of the world , powerful enough to enter the Drake family and finally find his father . " Babe ... " Martha's soft call pulled him back from his thoughts . Ashton leaned down and kissed her , then sat cross - legged , turning his focus inward . After last night's brutal absorption through the Drakell technique , spiritual energy surged wildly inside him . It constantly refined itself into his flesh and blood . A dark , cold glow shimmered over his skin . Ashton's eyes lit up .

He could clearly sense the barrier to the divine realm . His pupils tightened as he pushed forward , trying to break through that final threshold . Spiritual energy roared inside him , crashing again and again against the invisible wall to the divine realm . But it still didn't break . " I need more spiritual energy . I need to kill ! " Ashton circulated the Cosmic Breathing Technique and continued refining the spiritual energy within his body through the Drakell technique . Without him realizing it , the pressure of the Drakeborne lineage grew increasingly ferocious .

The power coursing through his blood was transforming . " The divine realm . " Ashton had a strong feeling that the moment he entered the divine realm , his bloodline power , techniques , and physical strength would all rise to an entirely new level . " I'm really looking forward to it , " he muttered . Ashton forced down his impatience . The more tightly he suppressed it now , the more explosive the breakthrough would be later . On the path of cultivation , every step mattered . There were no shortcuts .

A few hours later , Martha , still soaked in happiness , stretched lazily and finally regained some of her energy . Her eyes shimmered with intense affection . She wore a thin camisole that exposed her fair skin . Unable to resist , she wrapped her arms around Ashton again , exhaling warm breaths . The temperature in the room climbed once more . 1/2 +25 Bonus Martha nipped lightly at his ear as she called out in a tempting voice , " Babe ... " This woman was getting bolder by the second .

It seemed she needed to learn some restraint , and that there would be consequences for trying to seduce him . Desire flashed through Ashton's gaze . Just as the two were about to lose themselves again , a sharp ringtone broke the moment . Ashton glanced at his phone . It was Sylvia . After a brief hesitation , he answered the call . " Babe . " Sylvia's pleasant voice came through the line . Ever since she and Ashton had crossed that line , she had changed the way she addressed him . She liked calling him " babe " .

It gave her a sense of happiness and security and made her feel like she truly belonged to him . Ashton's expression tightened . He glanced at Martha out of the corner of his eye .
