Chapter 552 The Best of All Worlds
“What does Beathan have to do with this?”
Ashley was confused. What did the matters between Emelie and William have to do with Deathan?
However, Elias thought that she was defending Beathan and that she didn’t want him to trouble Beathan. He tightened his arms around her, and a mocking smile played on his lips.
“How could it have nothing to do with him? Ash, you were hugging him at the law firm’s entrance. You forbade me from coming to the firm and even hired a security guard to stop me, but you’d actually flirt with him at the entrance.
His grip was too fim. Worried about hurting the baby, Ashley pushed him away. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Flas took a step forward, forcing Ashley to step back. She was backed against the wall.
He took out his phone and lowered his gaze. He swiped a few times to find the photo that someone had sent him.
“Ash, I know that you’re a lawyer and that you need evidence for everything. So, I’ve kept the evidence. Look at this.”
Ashley glanced coldly at his phone screen. Upon recognizing the situation in the photo, she found it laughable. “So, it’s this incident”
“you remember now?” Ashley’s back was already pressed against the wall, but Elias pressed himself closer to her, closing the gap between them as he said, “That day, he was pressed close to you just like this.”
Ashley looked at him. “Do you know why he came to the firm that day?”
Elias asked mockingly, “How would I know what you discussed with your ex–boyfriend of seven years?”
Ashley coldly cut him off, “He told me that you’d swapped out my birth control pills.”
Elias‘ expression became blank
Ashley’s head was against the wall. She gazed at his charming face and said, “You’re right. I’m a Envyer, and I need evidence for everything. I had those pills tested, and the results just came in, clear as day. You can’t denyil.”
Elias pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth. A few seconds later, he said, “I won’t deny it I did switch the pills. Ash, I’ve told you for a long time that I wanted us to have a baby.”
“And I’ve told you for a long time that unless you sign a prenuptial agreement, I won’t have a child with you.” Ashley held back her anger. “You don’t want to sign the agreement, yet you want me to have your child. Elias, you can’t have it all.”
Elias laughed, seeming like a bad and rebellious person as he replied, “If I want it, I’ll get it. Not only do I want it all, but I also want the best of all worlds. I want you, I want a child, and I want that inheritance that only brings you trouble. Hence, I won’t sign the agreement not before, not now, and not ever.
Ashley was usually indifferent to things and not easy angered. However, Elias always managed to make her fume with rage:
“The best of all worlds is too modest, You want the best of everything. You want all the ladies too.
“Elias, 1
I’ve seen many cases of men taking advantage of women. They’re usually useless men. Today, I’ve learned that you’re just as low.
“But I’m not stupid. If you think that you can have it all from me, you’re dreaming. You should have received the court notice, right? Prepare for next Thursday. We’re getting dhorced!”
Ashley pushed him aside to leave
Ellas grabbed her wrist in time. A thought crossed his mind, and he asked suspiciously, “Are you pregnant? Otherwise, you wouldn’t be this angry”
.
When Ashley had first found out that she was pregnant, she had wanted to tell him. She was happy back then, but now, she wanted a divorce. He no longer had the right to be her child’s father.
Ashley said, “I hate being manipulated, and thate anyone trying to control my life. Elias, I’ve been too lenient with you. You’ve gone too far.”
las” affection was diverted by her words. He laughed in exasperation. “I’ve gone too far, you say? Ash, we should act with a conscience. When did I ever have a chance with you?” His Adain’s apple bobbed as he added, “You never gave me achance from the beginning”
