Chapter 1257

The sense of danger made her no longer hesitate. She went into bed and lay down by the side.After that, it felt like the pressure lasted an eternity. Ashlynn could no longer stand the exhaustionand eventually fell asleep.

When she woke up the next morning, Corentin was not by her side, and the room also did not smelllike alcohol.

Ashlynn walked to the balcony and looked down.

She wanted to see if the car was around but saw his figure on the chair she usually sat on by thepond.

He was sitting there, sipping on his coffee, looking unbothered.

Ashlynn knew that it was only an act.

Corentin did not leave yet, because he wanted to bring her to join the lunch with the Hilton family.He was serious about it...

Ashlynn ran down behind Corentin. She looked at his back and could not help but soften her tone,"Salvatore, please don't bring me. I don't want to go...”

“I had already decided. It is useless to argue,” Corentin said lightly.

Ashlynn went in front of him. “You killed Chichi already. What else do you want? The incident withthe kid is not just my fault!”

She felt her chest tighten when she spoke about Chichi.

That was a life too!

Corentin’s fingers that were wrapped around the mug tightened. “You seem to be addicted tobetraying me. I think I have been too good to you. That is why you are ignoring what I am saying!”“Since you know that I will betray you, why are you still keeping me by your side? I told you Ibetrayed you in the past and present, and I will continue to do so in the future! So, let me go, thefurther the better...” Ashlynn said agitatedly.

Corentin slapped her

“Ah!” Ashlynn could not withstand the force and fell onto the ground. She felt her ears ringing.Corentin stood up in front of Ashlynn, who was on her all fours, his face twitching with anger. “I dareyou to repeat that again!”

Ashlynn was shivering and did not dare to say a word more.

It was because she knew that the more she said, the more she would be tortured by Corentin.Corentin saw that Ashlynn did not say anything, so he pulled her up and pinched her face using hisfingers. His gaze was merciless. “I forgot that I needed to bring you to lunch, and I could not letyour face be swollen like this. It would be ugly.”

Ashlynn'’s lips were trembling when she faced the perverted Corentin.

For the rest of the morning, Corentin helped to ice her face.

Ashlynn sat in the chair, not moving, feeling the ice and numbness on her face.

She could not even cry anymore.

Plus, now that the lunch was decided.

Someone sent the dress over, and Ashlynn went to the room to change. She did not see Corentin’sexpression either when she was descending the staircase.

Was it important to look good?

No, it was important to cooperate with Corentin so that he could humiliate her.

The elegant black Bintley car, which symbolized status and power, was parked in front of the hoteldoor.

They entered the restaurant's private room and saw that everyone had arrived.

Old Mr. Hilton was not around, but the Hilton brothers, Beth, and Meredith, were all there.

There was only Cory Lloyd from the Lloyd family.

The lunch was set up to resolve the tension between the two families, but Cory was beyond pissedwhen he saw Ashlynn following behind Corentin. The Hilton family, naturally, did not look pleased."Old Mr. Hilton, what is this? Are you sure you are here for lunch?” Beth said, with a fake smile onher face.

Cory pointed at Ashlynn and asked, “Why did you bring her here?”

“Since it is just lunch, it would not be too much of a fuss just to add a set of cutlery for Ashlynn.”Corentin sat down and pulled Ashlynn to follow suit too.

Ashlynn was forced to sit next to Corentin. She could feel numerous hostile gazes falling upon her,secretly wishing she was dead.
