Lucas remained sitting in his seat, looking at the scene in front of him coldly without saying anything.

On the other hand, Peter looked extremely gloomy.

The saying ‘everyone kicks a man when he’s down’ was a true reflection of his current plight.

The resentment and hatred within him were surging, and he was on the verge of losing control.

!!
Just a few years ago, he had succeeded in winning Ashley’s heart and convinced her elders to let him marry her despite his poor family background after putting in effort for nearly four years.

But just as he thought he was about to succeed, he suddenly learned that the status of Ashley’s immediate family wasn’t as high as he expected. Even if he married Ashley, he wouldn’t be able to gain many benefits from the Steeles.

In that case, how could he marry a woman who would be of no use to him, thus ruining his bright future?

Therefore, he hated Ashley and left her without hesitation. On the day of their engagement party, he secretly left and even faked his death later to take revenge on Ashley and make her suffer unbearable misery.

Later, Peter racked his brains and finally managed to get close to Vanessa, the heiress of the Williams and Rayson’s only daughter. He knew that the same situation with Ashley wouldn’t happen again. As long as he could marry Vanessa and become the Williams’ son-in-law, he would be able to take full control of the family once Vanessa took over as the family head in the future. He might even have a chance to become the head of one of the eight top families of DC!

This time, he had gloriously returned to DC with great ambitions to take over the position of the general manager of the William Corporation and start to handle the family’s business. He believed that he would take over the entire family before long.

Everything was clearly perfect, and the gilded road to success was right in front of him. In just a few years, he would take over the Williams’ empire justifiably and reach the pinnacle of his life, finally obtaining everything he ever wanted!

But the ideal future he envisioned had been ruined by Ashley and the man she brought!

He initially thought that this reunion was just a chance to give Ashley a huge blow again. He never expected that he not only failed to hurt Ashley, but he even ended up stabbing himself in the foot.

His wife, Vanessa, and his father-in-law, Rayson, had decided to draw a clear line between him and them. They wanted nothing to do with him now. All the efforts he had spent over the years went down the drain.

His former classmates, who had been on good terms with him and desperately flattered him all the time, immediately had a drastic change in attitude as they put all the blame on him and frantically steered clear of him.

Peter looked around the private room, but all he saw were cold and resentful faces. He couldn’t see anyone who still had goodwill toward him.

Is this the end of it for me? Is everything I’ve worked so hard for for so long going to be ruined today?

He was absolutely indignant!

There had to be some way out of this!

With a maniacal gaze in his eyes, Peter looked at Ashley and suddenly charged toward her. He hugged her calf as though he was firmly grasping his last straw and said desperately, “Ashley, I lied to you. I didn’t mean to take revenge on you, and it’s not true that I don’t have any feelings for you. I only said those things to annoy you!

“Think about it. We were so close back in college. You’re my first love, and I loved you so much!

“I still remember that your favorite flowers are wisterias and your favorite color is white. You loved the fish and chips at the place right outside campus, and you liked it with a bit of chili… I remember everything about you clearly. Isn’t this enough to prove my love for you?

“Back then, it’s indeed my fault for bailing on you during our engagement party and making you sad. I’m sorry! But I… what I said earlier was just nonsense. I didn’t leave to take revenge on you, but… your family said that I wasn’t good enough for you, and they ridiculed me endlessly. They said that you’d be marrying a useless man!

“I wasn’t upset because they called me useless but because I couldn’t let you suffer humiliation because of me! That’s why I left in hopes of carving out a career of my own and making a name for myself before appearing in front of you again!

“But later… I met Vanessa, and she fell in love with me. She abused her power as the heiress of the Williams to force me to marry her. She even forced me to treat you hostilely. She insisted that I sever all ties with you, or else she’d hurt you with her family’s power!

“I had no choice but to do what she said. That’s why I said those things just now and said that I wanted to take revenge on you, but it isn’t like that at all!

“Ashley, we were together for so many years. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? The person I love the most has always been you, and the person I want to marry has always been you! If the Williams hadn’t forced me, we would have never ended up in this situation!

“Ashley, please give me one more chance. Tomorrow morning, I will immediately divorce that shameless woman and never let her threaten me again. Even if she threatens to kill me, I will never leave you again. I will stay by your side forever and marry you!”

Peter spoke with great affection and devotion. He even made up a story that made him look like a devoted man who had been forced to marry a wealthy woman.

If Peter hadn’t behaved so insanely and malevolently just now, his story might have been believable.

Unfortunately, no one would believe his lies now, let alone Ashley, who had already seen his true colors.

Rayson’s expression instantly changed.

He didn’t know how Peter was related to Ashley or what he had said before he came. But seeing his incompetent son-in-law confessing to Ashley devotedly, he immediately had an ominous premonition.

If the deceitful Peter could really convince Ashley and get back together with her, Lucas might forgive him for her sake. Then the Williams would be in trouble…

After hearing Peter’s shameless story, Vanessa was about to explode in anger.
