Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies

Chapter 1420

It was absolutely terrifying.

She lifted her hand and gently touched his wrist. “Don’t let yourself get hurt.”

“I should be the one saying that.” Corentin’s gaze looked profound. “Got it?”

“I can’t stand idle when you’re in danger,” said Ashlynn.

Corentin’s heart skipped a beat. After staring at her for a few seconds, he asked in a slightly hoarse voice, “If it was someone else standing next to you yesterday, would you also risk your life like that?”

“No.”

Corentin watched her even closer as if he wanted to uncover all of her expressions and emotions.

After that, he put Ashlynn in his arms and his hand avoided the injury on her back.

Ashlynn nestled in his arms without moving.

She felt Corentin’s strong heartbeat.

It seemed to be very, very close to her….

After that, the phone was left at Ashlynn’s side, and the Hilton family would call her almost every day, but she kept saying she would not be going over and she was dating Corentin.

They believed her at first, but not anymore after that.

“Where are you? I’ll go visit you now.” Beth was not so easily fooled.

“No, I’m not home!”

“What are you doing out there? Shopping? Why didn’t you ask me to come along? I’m not so busy now” Beth left the phone in her left hand and signed the documents her subordinate handed her with her right hand.

“I’m just having tea with a friend.”

“A friend from the past?” Beth asked, “Is it a person living in the slum?”

…Yes. We happened to bump into each other, so we’re having tea. I’ll go home later.”

“Send a video for me to see.”

Ashlynn was speechless. She was having a headache. She turned her face and looked at Corentin, who was sitting on the couch reviewing the documents without making a sound.

He knew who she was on a call with, but he did not seem to notice that she was in a difficult position.

Therefore, he looked like he was completely unconcerned.

“Ash, are you lying to me? What exactly are you occupied with? If you don’t tell me, I’ll rush to The Lloyd Group now Beth was assertive.

“No I’m just a little unwell, so I’m at the hospital.”

Beth’s expression drastically changed and asked in a hurry, “What did you say? Which part of you is unwell?”

Ashlynn had no choice but to tell her everything that had happened.

“What? You took a bullet for him?” Beth tried to calm herself down. “Which hospital are you at? I’ll go right over.”

Ashlynn knew she could not stop her so she told her.

After the call ended, Ashlynn lifted her head, and both Corentin and her eyes met.

“So my mother is coming over now. Can you…leave for a while?” asked Ashlynn.

“Why?”

“Just for a while.” Ashlynn glared at him. “My mom would surely be criticizing you. It’s better for you to not be present.” This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

When Beth, Marshall, and Jeremy came, Ashlynn was sitting on the bed alone in the ward.

After being hospitalized for a while, her body was already much better and the color on her face has also been restored.

Otherwise, if Beth were to see how her daughter looked on the day she was hospitalized, she would be so frightened that she would not be able to sleep.

“How are you feeling now? Are you still in pain? What did the doctor say? Would there be any complications?” Beth asked all sorts of questions as soon as she came.

“I’m fine. Really. You don’t have to worry. I’ll be discharged in a couple of days. There won’t be any complications.”

Ashlynn felt warm and fuzzy when she saw her parents and her brother looking worried and anxious.

It felt really good that her family cared about her.

It felt as comfortable as bathing in the sun in winter.

Marshall said, “As long as you’re fine, and make sure to recuperate properly.”

Jeremy frowned. “Where’s Corentin? You took a bullet for him, yet he’s not here keeping you accompanied?”
