The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Getting a ride
It didn't take long for the situation on all news channels to change as new information was brought to light.“We interrupt this program to light information that has just reached us concerning the abduction case with Miss Victoria Smith. Not only has she been rescued, but the criminal behind her kidnapping has been revealed to be the individual known as the Emerald Duke, who claims he was backed by Daniel Smith!”Celia was watching the news when this came up and, for some reason, found herself feeling… relieved?... But why was that the case?Perhaps it was because William’s name was cleared.But she didn't care about William anymore, and they were already divorced, so there was no need to feel that way, right?“Hmmph, they should investigate further,” Ava said from the side, unwilling to accept such an outcome. “I'm sure that good for nothing also has a hand in the kidnapping.”It was clear that even if William was revealed to be a saint, Ava would never accept it.As far as she was
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Why so serious?
Judging from this, he couldn't allow a goddess like Victoria to remain at the side of a frog like William, so He immediately moved to save the lovely woman from the clutches of the beast. “Mister Hall, what a surprise.” “Indeed it is. I didn't expect to see you here but now that you are here, perhaps, we can walk together?” “A lovely suggestion but one I would have to decline as I already have company.” As she spoke, William reached out to shake Logan only for the latter to regard him with apparent disgust. “Miss Smith, I doubt it is okay for a woman of your standing to be walking around with a classless individual like this. Don't you think so?” Victoria's expression shifted as she remarked. “I don't think who I associate with should concern you, Miss Hall.” Clearing his throat, he addressed Victoria softly. "I hope you aren't offended by my words but you have to understand that there are people in this world that would take advantage of you the moment you let them. As s

Wagging a finger at William, Logan remarked. "You are going too far…""And you!" Logan shifted to Victoria. "Are you really so foolish that you can't see through this scammer's lies?"Then returning to William, he spat coldly. "Get out right now or you won't like what I'd do to you!”William merely regarded him in amusement, considering him a clown employee by AutoNation as he turned away to address the attendant who had approached him first."So how do I pay?... Do you guys take cash, card, or transfer?" William casually inquired.Logan was taken aback by how calm William was, considering how much he was threatening him.Meanwhile, the attendant replied. "We only accept cards, sir.""Alright, bring the card reader." William nonchalantly replied.The attendant quickly retrieved the card reader and a moment later, William paid for the car, leaving Logan confused and in utter disbelief.Grinning widely, William casually remarked. "Now then, where were we?... Ah yes, we were talking abou
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Landon Vreeks
The large man replied. “There's no need to ask questions, just follow us and no one has to get hurt.”“Are you trying to kidnap us?... In broad daylight?” Celia asked, trying to scare the men off with the prospect of drawing unnecessary attention from law enforcement.The largest man grinned as he put up his shirt, revealing a gun tucked in his pants. “Think what you want. Now come along and no one has to get hurt.”“Celia,” Ava called out in a frightened tone as she laid eyes on the exposed gun while Celia barely managed to keep her wits about her.Taking a deep breath, she asked. “Where would we be going?”“No need to ask questions, I already said that.” The thug remarked. “Don't worry; your family members are already waiting for you at the location, so you won't be alone.”“What!?”“Mom, Dad.” Ava breathed out as she realized that the situation was not as simple as they thought.With no other choice, Celia remarked. “Fine then, we'll come with you.”“Good choice.” The thug said bef
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Get me a whip!
“Lucas, you snake!... How can you even be so spineless?... Who asked you to take a loan?” Ava cursed, unable to hold back after hearing all that Lucas had to say. “You took out a loan and now you want us to pay for it?... How disgusting can you be?”Lucas sneered. “But I wasn't disgusting when I was getting you all those expensive gifts, right?... Hah, you'd better not get me upset!”“Alright, alright, that's enough,” Landon said, bringing an end to the exchange of words between the two.As they knelt in the courtyard of Landon Vreeks manor, the Rodriguez family couldn't help but stare at Lucas, thinking themselves fools to have thought of him as a man who could take them to the next level.But the most distraught was Celia as she realized at that moment that she had been fooled by Lucas and his display of wealth.To think that he had inadvertently placed them in debt while acting like he was gifting them expensive things.She clenched her jaw as she glared hatefully at Landon.“It se
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates A living myth
Landon didn't even let her finish as he struck her with the whip multiple times, drawing blood and ripping up her clothes in the process. Celia let out an agonized scream as the whip struck her mercilessly, leaving her on the edge of death by the time Landon was done. “Hehe, that was fun.” Landon said as he locked his lips. Only those that knew him well, understood that Landon was a psychotic bastard that enjoyed torturing women. He enjoyed it most when the woman went against him as it made him even more excited to hit them more. “Boss, I think she fainted.” One of his subordinates reported after checking on Celia's condition. “Bah, this one is no fun,” Landon remarked, after learning that Celia had passed out. He didn't even act like he was talking about a human being causing the other members of the Rodriguez family to feel terrified as they realized in that moment the type of person Landon was. He wasn't a person at all! He was a monster! Even Lucas couldn't help bu
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Dealing back pain in kind
It was Celia, hanging on a metal pole with her arms in the air and her clothes in tatters. She looked a complete mess as she squirmed due to the pain she experienced as a result of the salt rubbed into her wounds, so much so that William's blood ran cold at the sight. Instinctively, he balled his hands into a fist as a terrifying aura surged out from within him, engulfing the entire manor and alerting everyone within to his presence. A single step took him from the gates to where Celia was strung up and a swipe of his arm cut the ropes that bound her. Even as he caught her, preventing her from hitting the ground, she continued to squirm, letting out an agonizing scream that left William even more shaken. William worked with the precision of a surgeon, coating his palm with spiritual energy before then moving his hand across Celia's many wounds. Some had already begun to fester and if he didn't do this, it wouldn't be long before they would cause a terrible infection. The c
The Abandoned Ex-husband Dominates Clearly the better man
“Eahhh!” Landon screamed in agony as the whip struck his skin, digging so deep that when it was retracted, it took so much flesh that his bone was visible. “Bastard, how dare you harm our boss!?” Landon's henchmen rushed out to attack William, pulling out their weapons intending to cut William apart. Unfortunately for them, they underestimated William's ability with a whip. Within moments, the whip lashed out multiple times, and with each lash, a henchman was struck, ensuring that the moment they fell, they would never get back up. By the time William was done, Landon's henchmen were dead, and the bastard was left stunned as he stared wide-eyed at William. “... Who are you?” Landon asked with a terrified look on his face.Landon had always been the one with the whip and while he was with it, many had suffered unimaginable pain.He was capable of using it in ways that ensured that though the person wouldn't die, they would undoubtedly wish for death.But now, someone else was with

More than what meets the eye
Without even sparing Zachary a glance, she turned around toward William and said, “Mr. Belmont, the exhibition is about to start. Why don’t you follow me to the pre-show exhibition to go over the items? ”“Very well.” William nodded.William shot Zachary a glance and smiled before he followed Cecilia out of the reception hall.Perry’s legs finally gave in and brought him to the ground.Zachary gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, trying to suppress the fire burning inside of his belly.The last scornful glance that William gave him was a sharp jab at his self-esteem.“Asshole!”He waited until the two were gone before he allowed himself to be seized by anger.He wrenched a half-empty wine glass on the table and smashed it on the floor.“Mr. Zach, please watch your actions.” Another manager who was called to deal with the emergency said with a scowl.Zachary looked around and realized that he had become a laughingstock. He stormed out of the room with the taste of defeat in his mo
A queen from a world of ice
Just as the guards were about to do as Perry had ordered to kick William out, they heard an icy voice rise behind the crowd:“Don’t touch him!”Everyone looked toward the voice, and they saw a beautiful girl with a cold and aloof face walking toward the commotion.The crowd split into two halves as people made way for the girl.The girl was in a beautiful white gown and a pair of stiletto heels.She looked to be one meter and seventy-eight centimeters or above.A sense of pride and dominance emanated from her wild and gleaming eyes, making many less confident men and women lower their heads.It was as if the girl was a queen from a world of ice.“Who is she? How dare she speak up for William?” One of the onlookers asked with disdain.Those who had already recognized the girl were shocked by the onlooker’s daring question.One of them hurried to cover the onlooker’s mouth and said, “Are you crazy? That’s the princess of the Lancaster Family.”“Princess of the Lancaster Family?” The onl
Kick him out
Manager Perry was unfazed by the question. He said calmly, “Because I know Young Master Zach is a good friend of my boss. But I can’t remember who this young gentleman over here is even though I have written all the invitations by myself. May I ask who you are?”“It doesn't matter what his name is.” Zachary snorted. “I really don’t think that he is on your invitation list.”As soon as Zachary fished his words, Victoria’s mind raced in a bid to figure out a way to handle the situation.“I don’t think he has one. He must have snuck in.” An onlooker jeered at William.“I bet you are right! Look at all the garbage that he is wearing. I can’t believe that they let him in.” Another one took a jab at William.“He is in knee-deep trouble! The owner of the Lancaster International Group was not someone he could mess with. Plus, he is on Zachary’s bad terms, too. He is as dead as a doornail.” Someone heaved a sigh.“Sir, please show me your invitation, or else I will have to call security.” Mana
A dramatic development
Darius was taken aback by the news.He knew that Zachary’s short temper would very likely prompt him to start a brawl with William on sight.“Speaking of the devil! Look, isn’t that Zachary?” Jared gasped.The other two looked over toward the entrance, and they saw a brawny young man in a gym suit storm into the event hall, pushing people out of his way as he went.“And so it begins... anyone wants some popcorn?” The dramatic development amused Darius.Even as William and Victoria, along with Zara, were gleefully sampling the ensemble of deserts on the table, a man came over to them with a few large strides.“Vicky, come here for a second, I need to talk to you.”Zachary didn’t even spare William a glance as he fixed his eyes on Victoria.Victoria raised a brow. “First of all, Vicky?... I don't think we've ever been that close. Secondly, what's up?... Why can’t you just tell me here?”“Here?” Zachary scanned around him and then turned to William and Zara, and said with a commanding vo
Preserving his master's destiny
Back in the exhibition hall, William searched through the items on display only to discover that the Dragon Fang on display was a fake.To think that he'd wasted his time trying to look for it. Just as he considered leaving, a suited man approached him and remarked. “Could you please come with me, young master?”Judging from the way the man addressed him, William understood that he had no ill intentions but he was still perplexed as to why the man had approached him.“Where to, exactly?”“The exhibition happening here is only the beginning. There's a second exhibition that will be taking place tomorrow at a private location, and you've been invited.”William furrowed his brows. “Why?”“The Lancasters would appreciate it if you attended and would be more than happy to handle any request you might have for them.”At this point, onlookers had begun to gather, quite curious to figure out what was happening.Upon hearing that the suited man was connected to the Lancasters, they began to m
Until we meet again
According to Cecilia’s instructions, they opened the display case and carefully took out the three-legged cauldron.They then turned it over and revealed the bottom of the cauldron.Cecilia stared at the bottom of the furnace and carefully scrutinized it a few times while the people around them craned their necks to see what was on the bottom.This allowed William to confirm that the cauldron was indeed a replica.“There’s no mark on the bottom of the cauldron,” William reminded kindly.“Mark?”“What mark?”“Never heard of such a thing...”The people standing around hadn’t done much research on antiques, so most of them didn’t understand what exactly William meant.But the Lancasters had built their business empire off of antiques, so Cecilia naturally understood the technical jargon and what William meant.Her gaze fixed on the cauldron.“There really isn’t a mark!” Her expression became rather sullen.But many people around were still confused.William explained kindly, “The so-call
Tired of living
rCecilia’s eyes lit up, and she seemed to be deep in thought. “There’s indeed such a possibility. But how are you so sure that this cauldron is a replica and not the real deal?”Cecilia’s gaze was clear.She wasn’t questioning William but genuinely asking him for guidance.Her attitude immediately took the countless people around them by surprise.Cecilia had behaved like an arrogant, domineering, and spoiled heiress when confronting Donald just now.But she was now facing William with an extremely calm attitude and didn’t lose her temper even when he doubted the authenticity of the antiques at the exhibition.Instead, she was discussing it composedly with him.It was indeed a little strange.William explained a little bit about the history and process of the cloisonné enamelware, which immediately made the entrepreneurs around them cluck their tongues in awe.Although some of them were antique collectors, most of them were focused only on the elegance of the antiques and had never d
Ending up in a worse plight
The hidden threat in Ava's words immediately enraged Cecilia.“Hmph, it’s just the Redmond family! He’s still just a scion now and not the helmsman yet. Even if the helmsman were right in front of me now, I’d tell him to get lost all the same! Don’t think you guys are that big of a deal. If you get on my nerves, I can easily destroy your family! Now, get lost!” Cecilia sounded extremely domineering and even seemed to have a touch of arrogance.Although she seemed to be only in her twenties and was much younger than everyone present, no one dared to question the truth of her words.After all, it would be a piece of cake for a giant like the Lancasters to annihilate the Redmonds!Finding Cecilia overly tyrannical and unreasonable, Ava bit her lower lip. “Miss Lancaster, how can you...”“Shut up!” Donald suddenly interrupted and rebuked before Ava could finish speaking.“Miss Lancaster, I’ll definitely make it up to you another day for offending you with my words today!” Donald maintaine
I, Cecilia Lancaster
Donald was livid, and he roared with a menacing expression, “William Belmont, you’re deliberately provoking the Redmonds! I won’t let you off!”William sneered. “You’re making it sound as if you’d let me off even if I stand here without doing anything! You’ve been the one looking to create trouble right from the start!”“Fine, you’ve got some nerve! Let me tell you, just wait. The Redmonds will release their wrath on you!” Donald snapped furiously.“Hmph, it’s just the Redmond family. What’s the big deal?” William said nonchalantly without taking the Redmonds seriously at all.Donald should have been even angrier, but all of a sudden, his heart was full of an inexplicable panic.Generally, those who dared to disregard the Redmonds were either too dense and ignorant to get a clear idea of the situation or simply fearless.Given how William had angered Donald to the point of being speechless multiple times, he definitely wasn’t a fool...‘Could William Belmont really have something to f
