Chapter 1405
“I’m a man. There’s nothing to worry about.” Then, Jeremy’s expression turned serious as he looked at Ashlynn. “We’re all worried about you. Mom said it would be great if we got you back before Corentin got your marriage certificate.”
you and
“So, she was worried and asked you to keep an eye on me?” Ashlynn thought of this possibility and asked.
“Mom, Dad, and I all think so. Anyway, the Hilton family doesn’t like Corentin.”
Ashlynn smiled wryly, thinking maybe this was fate!
They did not even know that the real Corentin was long dead, but she could not tell them.
Otherwise, her family would try their best to take her away.
“He treats me pretty well, and you’ve seen it too. Alright, go home!” Ashlynn urged.
Jeremy got into the car and drove away.
When Ashlynn returned to the living room, she found that Corentin was still sitting on the sofa.
However, Ashlynn did not want to sit next to him, so she stood there and said, “I’m going up as I’m feeling a little tired.” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
“Sure enough, you’re different after finding your biological family. You sound confident now.” Corentin’s tone was eerie and cold.
“What did I say?” Ashlynn was baffled.
“Come here.”
Ashlynn did not want to anger him, so she walked over.
As soon as she got before Corentin, he dragged her into his arms. They were so close that their clothes rubbed against each other.
“Why are you tired?”
“From riding the electric bike.” Ashlynn thought the excuse was reasonable.
Corentin flashed an evil smile. Next, he picked Ashlynn up while she was in a riding position.
“Hey…” Ashlynn wrapped her arms around his neck, terrified of falling. “I’ll walk on my own.”
“This is better.”
Ashlynn frowned. This position was too strange.
Their clothes rubbed against each other as Corentin walked, and they could feel each other’s body heat.
It was as if the friction would cause sparks.
Ashlynn lay passively on his broad shoulders, hoping to get to the room quickly so she could come down
sooner.
However, the mansion was huge, and the distance was long. Every second seemed to be suffering.
When they got to the room, Corentin took her straight to the bathroom.
In truth, Ashlynn already had a feeling on the way that she would inevitably suffer that night.
A few days later, Beth called Ashlynn and asked her to come home for dinner.
Of course, Ashlynn went right away. Beth, Marshall, and Jeremy had been busy during this time, so they could only take time out of their busy schedules to call or video call her.
Ashlynn would not go to the Hilton family if no one were home.
With Corentin’s permission, she went to the Hilton family.
As soon as Ashlynn got out of the car, she saw Beth holding something like an envelope in the distance. She noticed that Beth’s expression immediately changed and turned pale when she saw the content
“Mom?” Ashlynn walked to Beth.
Beth hurriedly stuffed the photos into the envelope, looked at Ashlynn, and showed an unnatural smile on her face, “Ash, you’re here. Let’s go in.”
Then, Beth handed the envelope to the servant, ordering. “Take this to my study.”
Ashlynn was curious. “What’s that?”
“It’s nothing. Just some company documents,” Beth said.
Ashlynn thought they looked more like photos.
What photo would make her mother’s face turn pale? It must be something serious.
