Female Novel
Chapter 1305
Ashton tidied his suit as if nothing had just happened, and his expression was extremely indifferent.
Instead, Thora, who for some reason was only an inch away from Ashton, raised her chin as she
looked down on us proudly. “Scarlett, don’t think that everyone will give in to you. I’m sure we all clearly
saw who took action first. If you pursue it, you’ll be the one who’ll be embarrassed.”
From her tone, it seemed as though she had fallen for Ashton’s acting and regarded me as a
submissive and well-mannered lady of a rich family.
However, we were indeed unable to refute her. John’s acting tended to be on the angrier side, and he
would always take physical action every time. Since we knew we were losing the battle, there was no
need to seek out any more trouble.
At that moment, Seth slowly stood up to stop the fight. “What are you guys doing? We’re all just here to
do business. There’s no need to take things so far.”
He pretended to sigh, then looked at John. He said apologetically, “John, since you’re injured, why
don’t you take your sister back home first. I’ll contact you about the cooperation another day.”
Keeping the weight off his injured foot, John unwillingly looked at Ashton and Thora, closed his eyes in
displeasure, and nodded. “I’ll do it for your sake, Mr. Trivett. Ashton, ask your woman to remember this
well. I’ll get back at her sooner or later!”
Then, he dragged his injured foot as he limped away.
Aggrieved, I was stunned for a while before I abruptly stomped my feet in anger and chased after him.
As John had been embarrassed by a woman, his expression was bad ever since he left the room.
Similarly, I was in a bad mood as well. Wordlessly, both of us exited the Trivett Corporation building.
When we finally entered the car, John gasped a sigh of relief and bent over to rub his foot. “What the
hell! Thora’s really ruthless. She almost pierced through my foot!”
I felt both sorry and amused at the same time. “It’s been hard on you. But this time, the results seem
quite good. Thora should have believed by now that Ashton and I got a divorce because our
personalities clashed. So, she’d go all in and try to take everything for herself in the Pitcoin business.”
However, John was only interested in thinking about how to deal with such an unexpected situation the
next time. He mumbled to himself, “When I get back, I’ll get the housekeeper to order me a pair of
customized shoes and I’ll add a small bulletproof vest to the front of it. Who knows whether or not that
b*tch will shoot me next time!”
“Do you need to exaggerate this much?”
“Let someone step on you, and you’ll know how I feel,” said John with a dark expression. “Even if it was
all an act, I won’t forget this. The Ziegler family has seriously offended me. Mitchell is disgusting
enough, but now Thora’s also an eyesore. Their entire family is seriously a bunch of trouble.”
I smiled, unable to refute his words. “There’s always a solution to the problem. Who can take on a
demon like you? When the time comes, Ashton will naturally be able to make them all disappear.”
“I hope I don’t have to wait too long.” John pressed his lips together, seemingly not caring much.
“Getting the Zieglers and the Trivetts to join forces is only the first step of our plan. Tomorrow, prepare
some funds and find some retail investors. Then, go to the stock market and make the price of Pitcoin
rise.”
“I know what to do.” John crossed his arms as he leaned back on the leather seat. Perhaps he had
used too much effort in his acting, as he looked a little tired.
“What’s wrong?” I asked.
“Nothing, I just suddenly thought of how Thora was defending Ashton and thought of Hannah,” said
John sorrowfully. His deep brown eyes looked out the window as if he were a lonely solo traveler at
night.
Suddenly, my heart seemed to have been wrapped in ice. I felt both cold and weak and was
uncomfortable. At such a time, it was not suitable for me to express my own feelings.
“When you’re free, let’s go visit Kiki together. You’re still family, so you can’t just avoid each othernovelbin
forever.”
