Dumping My Billionaire Ex

Excuse me, I need to use the bathroom"

Sharon didn't want to cause any trouble at this event, even if she wasn't interested in Ray. After saying this softly, she quickly entered the hall and headed toward the restroom. She stayed in the bathroom for a long time.

Being pulled into this last-minute charade was frustrating enough, but now that Edwin was here, she really didn't want to go back out,

When Sharon finally left the bathroom, she didn't return to the hall. Instead, she walked in the opposite direction, looking for a quiet place to for the night.

She found a secluded spot behind a rockery

It was hidden by rocks and trees, so even if someone walked by, they wouldn't see her.

Sharon noticed a stone bench behind the rockery and sat down

She quickly sent a message to Ray, letting him know where she was so he wouldn't worry.

Lide

Just as she sent the message, she heard a voice nearby. "Ray sure knows how to pick them. Isn't he worried about picking an internet celebrity with one hundred million fans and embarrassing himself?" The tone was sharp and mean, and the words were unpleasant.

These days, money and popularity are what matter. If someone can make money and attract fans, who cares what they do!" another woman replied. "Didn't you see the old man's reaction? He treated her gill differently. Others' gifts didn't get a second glance, but he opened hers right away and even put it on

"People aren't treated equally. Your Jack and River and my Cam and Shane, aren't they all his biological grandsons? Yet he treats Ray better than them!"

"Exactly!"

Sharon could guess who was speaking. It was Karma and Panny, Ray's aunts-in-line.

Conor had three sons and several daughters. These two women had been polite to her earlier, but now they were criticizing her.

Sharon sighed. It was exhausting how people in wealthy families wore so many masks to get by every day

"Maybe with Foxy Damon's help, the inheritance rights will go to Frink, Karna said sourly.

Panny sighed. "At least your Christine is still unmarried. We need to find someone good tonight. There's still a chance to turn things around. In our family, everyone who can marry is already married. We have no chance!"

"How? Most of the young masters in Rosaria City are loafers with low standards. How can they compare to someone like Foxy Damon! They'd be a burden, not help"

"But Edwin's here. Even the old man admires his ability. Let Christine seize this chance tonight and secure him. The inheritance will be yours

As they continued talking excitedly, Sharon decided she didn't want to listen to their gossip anymore. She gave up her quiet spot and walked out the other side

She walked along the wall, looking for another quiet place, when suddenly someone grabbed her shoulder.

The sudden grip startled Sharon, and she instinctively slashed at the person's wrist.

But the person was faster. He dodged and grabbed her shoulder again, pushing her against the wall.

Feeling the cold wall, Sharon shuddered. She tried to resist, but a hard, cold chest pressed against her.

She couldn't see the person's face clearly, but she recognized his scent

"Ed" she started to say when she saw who it was. It was no other than Edwin

He wasn't as distant as he had been at the entrance. There was an icy air around him, almost freezing the surroundings.

His face was very close to hers. She could see the hostility in his eyes and the veins on his temples.

Sharon struggled uncomfortably

Edwin's grip on her shoulder was incredibly strong. Her struggles were useless.

She tried to kick him, but he pressed down, trapping her between him and the wall,

"Edwin, what are you doing?" Sharon growled, glaring at him, her eyes on fire.

Edwin pressed his lips close to her ear. "Why did you suddenly become Ray's girlfriend?"

His cold words pierced Sharon's earlobes making her blood vessels throb

"It has nothing to do with you, she retorted, trying to move away from his intense presence. But it was impossible

Edwin's grip tightened, feeling like he was going to crush her shoulder blades.

Even at his angries, Edwin had never treated her like this.

Sharon had always felt his indifference, but seeing him so angry was rare.

She bit her lip. “Edwin, we divorced a long time ago. It's my freedom to be anyone's girlfriend. Don't you think its unreasonable to question me

Edwin's brows knitted together in anger.

He retracted his hand and grabbed her neck, wanting to strangle her.

But seeing the pain on her face, he loosened his grip and pressed his body against hers without retreating.

"I'll agree to anything else, but you can't do this?" he said

"Who are you to me? My father?" Sharon retorted angrily. Even ny father has no right to meddle in my private affairs! Mr. Stanley, please have same self-respect!" Obviously, Edwin had no self-respect at this moment

He didn't mave,

Sharon, furious, struggled and twisted in his arms.

"If you keep moving like this, you'll be responsible for what happens, Edwin warned.

Sharon froze.

She suddenly felt the change in his body, stiff, like iron, and hot.

Her face turned red from the heat.

"Hooligan!"

Edwin, full of hostility, laughed. "I'm a normal man. How can I not react when the woman I like is in my armast

Sharon didn't want to provoke hirn further so she shut up.

She took deep breaths, trying to calm down.

After more than ten breaths, she finally managed to speak calmly. "Edwin, we're adults. I didn't force you to get a divorce. You agreed. You agreed so readily back then, and now you're pestering me. What do you take me for? You think I'm just a shameless slut you can control Nothing's changed." That's not what I meant, Edwin denied.

Sharon looked at him calmly, her eyes like merciless blades of judgment

Edwin's domineering aura dissipated, and he stepped back.

Sharon patted her clothes, trying to rid herself of his scent

Before she could react, Edwin pulled off her mask and pressed his lips against hers. He kissed her Bercely

Sharon streeled, but he seemed to have gone mad. He held her tightly and pressed her head back, giving her no chance to escape.

Sharon tried to speak, but her words were muffled. She couldn't form a sentence.

He dominated her, making her world spin

Suddenly, footsteps approached. Someone was coming.

Edwin seemed deal to the approaching sounds. He only wanted to kiss her more, his teeth and lips becoming more aggressive, like a beast trying to devour bet

The footsteps got closer. It was a group of people, including Conor and his men.

"There are many young people tonight. Young girls like sweet food. Tell the kitchen to prepare more and be creative, Conor said as he walked.

"Yes" the three daughters-in-law responded in unison, trying not to lag behind.

His three sons also stayed close, serving him.

Following them were the Gildon family's juniors.

The group was large and formidable. After turning a comer, they would see Sharon and Edwin

The banquet was about to start, and Conor was in a hurry to get to the hall, walking even faster than usual.

Sharon was stunned. She could already imagine the Gildon family's reaction if they saw this scene

But Edwin was going crazy. She couldn't save herself.

"Grandpa, the butler said he saw a snake here this morning. It might not be safe. Why don't we take another path?" Ray suddenly stopped Conor just before they reached the bend

"That's right. If someone gets bitten, it will ruin the day for everyone."

Conor didn't want to alarm everyone because of a snake, so he nodded. "Alright, let's take another p

Edwin followed. They said there were snakes. Til stay with you."

Edwin knew Big Eyes was afraid of snakes.

Before Sharon could speak, a warm male voice interrupted, "No need."

Ray appeared from around the corner.

Even in the dark, he looked as gentle as ever, making everyone feel at ease.

Sharon thought he had left. Seeing him, Sharon felt embarrassed. He must have seen everything.

Even though her face was hidden under the mask, she felt ashamed.

But Ray acted like he knew nothing of what had just happened. He smiled at her, but his eyes were on Edwin. Til take care of Damon."

His gaze was clear and indifferent, as usual.

Edwin's eyes darkened when Ray appeared.

Sharon didn't want to stay any longer. She just wanted to leave

She turned and walked away.

A muffled sound came from her side, followed by a painful groan.

Someone had fallen to the ground. It was Ray

Edwin had appeared in front of him and punched him in the face,

Ray's face swelled, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Meanwhile, Edwin stared at Ray like a berserk beast, his fists clenched, his gaze murderous.

Ray wasn't afraid. He smiled at Edwin as he sat upThis belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Ray d didn't hurry to stand.

"Edwin, what's wrong with you!" Sharon shouted, running over to help Ray up

"Are you okay!" She checked his face.

Ray smiled. T'm fine."

His eyes remained on Edwin, his lips curling provocatively. "Edwin, Sharon is here as my girlfriend tonight. You won't embarrass her again, will you?"

He emphasized "again" clearly indicating he had seen everything that had happened and had been the reason Conor and the others changed their

Edwin didn't respond. He shifted his gaze to Sharon,

Under his gaze,

Sharon took out

out a tissue from her bag and carefully wiped Ray's wound.

Her focus and seriousness felt like a knife stabbing into Edwin's heart. The pain was intense and inescapable

Edwin couldn't stand it anymore and walked away.

"Sorry," Sharon said, watching him go. She stepped back and kept a safe distance from Ray.

Kay's lips curled into a faint, bitter smile. "Were you nice to me just to make Edwin give up?"

Sharon felt embarrassed but didn't deny it. She didn't like this life of constant harassment. "Why don't you get a professional to look at your injury?" She started to make a call. Ray stopped her. "It's just a small injury. No need to make a fuss," Even though it was a small injury, his face was swollen, and blood was on his lips.
