The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Clinton's shot at revenge
Jacob had bandages wrapping his injured face.He felt a headache as he explained to Chloe who was clearly fuming, “I didn't leave you on purpose, Chloe. You saw how many people chased me, right?... They might have hurt you if I brought you with me. I was just trying to draw them out.”Chloe brushed off the mud in her hair and looked at the bandages Jacob with concern.Then she said, “Is that true?... Aw, I knew it. I was wrong to scold you, my dear. Are you still in pain?”Jacob groaned and replied. “Yes, I am.”Chloe remained furious as she asked. “Do you think the Great Devourer has gone insane?... Why did he tell his men to beat you without meeting you?”Jacob was just as conflicted as her. “There must be a misunderstanding. I'll investigate but please take me home first.”With no other choice, Chloe took Jacob home to get some rest with the latter deciding to no longer pursue the matter with William or Zara.He couldn't even touch Zara if he wanted considering the family she was a
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Soul Crusher
William pursed his lips as the nickname sounded familiar.According to what he knew, Soul Crusher was a man of barbarian cruelty, always paying for the blood of his next victim.Any offenders who fell into his hands could only pray for an outcome less than horrific.“Nice to meet you, Mr. Rick. I’ve heard a lot about you.”Despite the severity of the situation, William seemed relatively calm and breezy.“Great! Given that you’ve heard of my name, I assume you’re familiar with my habits. I recommend that you learn your place and cooperate. That is your only hope of leaving here alive!”The inspector lit a cigar, slid it between his teeth, and took a deep breath.“Mr. Rick, what do you need my cooperation for?” William asked with a calm voice.“You stole from a very important person, and the law can sentence you to prison. However, I am giving you the chance to straighten out the issue with the person. If we reach a mutual agreement, no charges will be pressed.”“You claim I defrauded a

“Quick… call someone! We have to go to the police station,” John instructed Duncan after which he coldly added, “That fat fuck Rick. If he dares touch a hair on William's head, I’ll skin him alive!”“Boss, shouldn’t you remain calm?” Duncan's lips twitched with irony.“To hell with calm!” John bellowed before adding. “What are you doing still lingering around? We have to get him out of there!”After slapping Duncan awake, John darted out the door.Deep in his heart, he prayed, “Rick, Rick, you fat motherfucker better not mess around! If you do, I swear I'll make you regret it!”As the chaos unfolded in the outside world, nothing but peace and calm hung in the air of the inspector’s office at the police station.“What’s the situation, Mr. Rick? Has the kid accepted yet?” asked Clinton's subordinate, Terrence as soon as he sat down.“It doesn’t matter whether he has or not. Any prisoner who falls into my hands is sure to give in eventually.”The fat inspector took another drag of his ci
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Out of my way!
“Sir, what’s wrong?” Terrence asked cautiously.“What’s wrong? Where did you get the guts to ask me that?” Rick slapped a palm onto the table. “Didn’t you say the arrogant asshole had no background? Mr. Stone just called to speak to me about the fellow! Does that sound like someone with no background to you? Are you deliberately trying to set me up, you motherfucker?!”Victoria Smith was already a handful.Now that John Stone was also in the picture, this was equivalent to stripping him down and tying him to a skewer over an open fire.“No way! There’s no way that he has relations with Mr. Stone! I–I really didn’t know about this,” Terrence stuttered as the color drained from his face.“Quick, call Clinton now. This situation is getting way out of hand. He’ll have to pay me more if he wants this matter settled smoothly,” Rick ordered.“Alright, alright. I will call Sir Clinton immediately!”Terrence did not hesitate as he dialed Clinton’s number.Over the phone, he briefly explained R
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Kill him!
All of them were dead in an instant, bleeding from their internal wounds.“Help, anybody! Please help!” Rick turned pale and whirled around to escape.William kicked the limp body of a man lying beside him.It flew like a bullet and crashed into Rick, who was attempting to escape.He screamed in pain and fell to the ground, unable to run any longer.“I warned you, didn't I?” William strolled up to him and hissed murderously, his eyes boring dangerously into Rick.“Bastard, don’t forget you’re in the police station! You can’t go too far!” Rick backed away on all fours.“Too far? What will you do about it?” William chuckled as he crushed Rick’s arm with his foot.The immense pain from his broken arm caused Rick to howl in agony.“Come back to your senses, you arrogant bastard! Accept the conditions so that you still have a chance to save yourself. If not, there will be no mercy!” Rick threatened with a grimace.Without a word, William kicked Rick in the stomach.Rick spurted out the con
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Secretary Gray
Victoria alone was tough enough to handle.If John joined in the fray, things might get out of hand.“If I didn’t show up, would you listen to reason?” John retorted angrily.“Mister Stone, I informed you in the call last time. Give me some time so I can look into it. If there’s a mistake. I will let him go immediately.” Rick tried to wriggle his way out.“I have no time to waste yapping with you. Let my brother go this instant!” John ordered impatiently.The corrupted ways of the police inspector were well known.If they had waited for the investigation to end, William would have been dead and gone.“As an inspector, I must capture wanted criminals and protect the peace of the city. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with my actions,” Rick defended himself.“Rick, I’m giving you one last chance. I’m warning you; let him go immediately. If not, you shall die a painful death!” John coldly said.“Mister Stone, are you threatening me? Don’t you know the consequences of going against th
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates An unexpected twist
“Mister Stone! You slapped and shot me in the ear for that punk’s sake! You have gone too far! Now that my father–in–law is here, let’s see how you will explain this to him!” Rick snickered with a resentful expression on his face.Weren’t they so brazen a minute ago?He couldn’t wait to see how impudent they would be now that his father-in-law was here!“What a coincidence; his timing was perfect. Secretary Gray knows how to make an entrance!” Victoria frowned slightly.Secretary Gray’s position as secretary to the minister was not to be trifled with.Even with Victoria and John’s influence, Secretary Gray’s decision would be final.More importantly, Secretary Gray and Rick are related by marriage which made it almost a certainty that he would support Rick and whatever decision the fat bastard takes.“Secretary Gray, your son–in–law is guilty of distorting the truth, taking bribes, and accusing the innocent. We aren't leaving here until he releases the person he wrongly arrested!”Def
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Go home, Victoria
Terrence turned back and glanced at William, who had remained silent all this while. He had an expression of indifference on his face as if he had known this would happen all along. Who was this man, and why was Secretary Gray treating him with such respect? “Arrest all the other men as well!” Secretary Gray barked an order. Terrence and Rick’s men were all apprehended. Rick and Terrence stared at each other in despair. It was obvious that they would have to pay for their crimes. “What–What’s happening?” Victoria couldn’t wrap her head around the plot twist. She expected trouble when Secretary Gray appeared. Unexpectedly Secretary Gray did not find fault with them. Furthermore, he fired Rick and threw him into prison. Who could have expected Secretary Gray to do such a thing to his own son–in–law? “Are you William? I can tell that you are a capable young man.” After he had tied up the loose ends, Secretary Gray walked up to William with a rare smile on his ste

Stepping up
“Screw you!” The man grabbed a beer bottle and smashed it on Amad’s head.The beer was everywhere in an instant, and Amad was bleeding from the head.“That’s too much!” Amelia jumped out and protested, “Do you know who you just hit? He’s the son of the Walia family!”“I don’t care wherever the fuck he’s from. He’s dead meat if he gets into trouble with the Cavendishs. “The man was ferocious.Amelia choked on anger. “Y-y-you’d better not be a bully!”“What if I am a bully? Whoever tries to step up today will stand in the firing line!” The man gestured, and his bodyguards drew their swords.Their threatening postures immediately shut her up.“Yo, dude! I thought you were a hero just now! Why are you quiet now?” The man slapped Amad on the face repeatedly in an attempt to humiliate him.“Friend, if what you want is money, we have room for discussion,” Amad bit the bullet and negotiated.“Room for a fucking discussion?” The man kicked Amad aside and even spat on him with disdain while he
Back again
“Hmph! Run any slower, and I’ll break your leg!” Eden waved his beer bottle wildly.“Clowns! How dare they make a scene in front of us! Amad seemed arrogant.Amelia’s eyes sparkled with admiration. “I never knew you guys were that great at fighting! It was eye-opening!”“Hah, that was nothing! Back in the day, Amad and I took down ten guys in the bar!” Eden proudly reminisced.She beamed at him. “Is that so? That’s amazing!”“Eden, Amad, thank you so much.” Angelina was grateful to them.She couldn’t picture the outcome if she were caught and dragged away.“Angelina, we’re all schoolmates. Just relax when you’re with us. If you come across any trouble, just come to us, and we’ll take care of it for you!” Eden thumped his chest and promised her.Victoria was rather curious. “Angelina, who did you get into trouble with, to the point that you had to run all the way to Westwood from the empire?”“I got into trouble with the boss of the entertainment agency,” Angelina replied with a sigh.
Showing off
“Stop acting funny William is a great guy. You’ll know soon.” Victoria puffed her chest with a smile.“Victoria, I’m sorry, but you’d be better off dating me if you were giving this doctor a chance,” Amad finally spoke up half-jokingly.He had once pursued Victoria but was turned down.Now that Victoria had her eyes on an ordinary doctor, he started to think he had a chance because he felt that he was way better than William.After all, the Walia family was one of the elites in Westwood.“Right, Victoria, I think Amad’s pretty decent He stayed single just to wait for you. Why don’t you consider him?” Amelia winked at Victoria and started matchmaking“Amad? Nah, he’s not my type,” Victoria shot down the suggestion.“Victoria, now, you’re being harsh. Amad graduated from a prestigious university and he runs a company worth millions. Isn’t he a stronger candidate than a doctor? Amelia analyzed.“Amad’s life is none of my business. My boyfriend is William. Please do not joke about this to
An ordinary doctor
Celia reached out a hand to stop him but managed to stop herself. She knew that this was the end for them. However, this was still a good ending.So, why? Why did her heart ache so much?Her chest was throbbing so much she couldn’t breathe.“Celia! What happened?” Just then, Ava had arrived.When she spotted Argrave unconscious on the floor, she paled. “Did you do this?”“Sis, William dropped by just now. He knows everything now. We’re never getting back together.” Celia wailed, throwing herself into her sister's embrace.“Shh… Sis’s here.” Ava patted her daughter’s back. “Your status has changed. William isn’t good enough for you anymore.”“B-but I love him! I really want to be with him! Why is God doing this to me? I don’t want to accept this!” Celia wailed tormentedly.“Life isn’t always smooth sailing, Celia. You should look on the bright side instead. I’m sure you’ll be happier in the future.” Ava sighed.“Sis, do you know how much it hurt when I said those hurtful things to him?
War of words
“Right. You didn’t expect me to ruin your fun, or you could’ve continued treating me like a fool.” William shook his head and sneered. “I was an idiot to think that you changed and even tried to accept you. It took me so long to realize that you’ve been toying with me this entire time I don’t get it. What did I ever do to you? Why would you do something like this to get even with me? Why won’t you let me go even though we’re divorced? Was it fun toying with my emotions? Will you never stop until you’ve completely humiliated me?”“Listen to me, William. I really like you. I never wanted to hurt you. Please believe me!” Celia sobbed.“You like me? Then what about him?” William pointed at Argrave. “I saw everything just now. Did you think that I’m blind?”“N-no. That was a misunderstanding.” Celia bit her lip“A misunderstanding? Are you telling me that he was about to rape you?” William’s face darkened instantly. “If you say yes, I’ll make sure to get rid of him!”Hearing that, Celia im
Taking advantage
“Let’s see how you’re going to escape tonight.” Argrave cackled, seeing Celia’s retreating figure. He lifted his glass and took a big gulp before following behind the two women.Inside the presidential suite, Ava helped Celia onto the bed and took off the younger woman’s shoes.She then went to grab a basin of warm water to wipe Celia down.“I feel horrible. I want some water.” Celia lay on the bed weakly, feeling parched.“Water won’t work. I’ll get you some milk. Wait here.” Ava made up an excuse and quickly left the room, bumping into Argrave straight away.“How’s Celia doing?”“She’s fine. Nothing a night’s sleep won’t fix.” Ava smiled.“Where are you heading?” Argrave asked again.“To get Celia some milk to ease her stomach ache.”“I see…” Argrave smiled knowingly. “No one sells milk nearby, so I’m afraid you’ll have to search further. You might have to come back later too.”“Are you sure? I’m pretty sure I saw a grocery store downstairs.” Ava smiled awkwardly.“Are you questioni
The last glass
“I’m curious, Mr. Cavendish. Why would you marry her? You could have just had fun without getting married. This doesn’t seem like something you’d do.” The blond man observed.“Don't worry about it, it's a personal affair of mine. Just know that at the end of it all, I will come out even greater than I am now.”His words caused a stir among the crowd, and they immediately began singing his praises.“As expected of Mr. Cavendish, he thinks so far ahead. How impressive!”“He has brains and brawn. He’s amazing!”“Once I finish with this little game, I will become the head of the Cavendishs!” Argrave declared confidently.Competition between Argrave and his brothers was fierce, as everyone wanted to become the head of the family.To win against them, he must have enough strength and power.“Then let us wish you a happy marriage in advance!” The blonde man led the group to offer Argrave a toast. Soon, laughter resonated through the room.8 pm at Lakeside Hotel.William had arrived earlier t
In a tight spot
“You have to pay the price for your mistakes. How can you think that you’ll be safe after killing someone?” Celia sighed.Although she loved her brother dearly, she could do nothing about his crime.“Sis, help me! I swear I’ll never do this again! I’ve learned my lesson, I swear!” Andre swore frantically. Unable to stand the thought of living out his life in prison.“Calm down, Andre. I’ll call one of my contacts right now. With their help, we should be able to get you out.”Panicked by the possibility of Andre spending his life behind bars, Ava quickly took out her phone and began to make calls with Celia doing the same.It didn't take long for the other members of the Rodriguez family to gather, along with Mrs. Rodriguez.“Mom, I don't know what to do,” Celia said in a panicked tone. “I've reached out to all my contacts but none of them can help out.”“Don't worry, there's a way to deal with this.”“What way?”“You recall Argrave Cavendish?”Celia's expression shifted as she nodded.
Hit and run
He walked over to the road junction and flagged a cab to send her home. It was obvious that he had been the truck’s target, and he didn’t want to drag her into this mess.At the entrance to the villa, Celia halted and spun around to ask, “Would you like to come in for a cup of tea?”“It’s fine. You should get some rest.” William politely refused as if he hadn’t understood what she was trying to say.“You idiot!” Celia humped, glaring at him before spinning around and going into the house.William waited until the doors closed to look away, his eyes now cold and ruthless. “John, help me look into the truck.”“On it. Give me three minutes.” John whipped out his phone and made a call.In less than three minutes, the results came in. “Done. It turns out the Grays put a bounty of up to ten million dollars on your head. Most of the bounty killers should have their eyes on you by now. That truck was one of their attempts.”“The Grays.” William narrowed his eyes, the air around him turning mu
