Chapter 1423

She placed the fruits and fresh flowers on the table.

Ashlynn glanced at all those things. “You didn't just come here to pay me a visit, did you?"

“I believe you must be very curious about me.”

"Why do you say s0?"

“You wouldn't have let me in if you were not curious,” said Teagan.

Ashlynn thought that it was fortunate that her mother was a smart person. Otherwise, such awoman would have taken her mother's place and married her father!

“I used to be together with Marshall. We dated for two years and we were very in love. If Beth didn'tcome between us, how would I end up being dumped?” Teagan looked sad, which looked very easyfor others to pity her.

"Why are you telling me all this? These are all in the past now. My parents are very in love, and theyhave two children, my younger brother and myself. We are a complete family. You should go andsearch for your own happiness instead of staring at my family all the time,” said Ashlynn, “It'simmoral for you to do so.”

“Immoral?” Teagan's gentle expression was mixed with hatred. “Is it morally acceptable for her tosteal the person I love away from me then? The person Marshall loves is me. He was forced by theHilton family to marry Beth. They tore us apart.”

“If a man truly loves you, he would marry you no matter what and not marry someone else instead.Don't forget that my father is not the only son of the Hilton family. I still have an uncle!”

“That's impossible!” Teagan smiled, and her gentle and elegant look was restored. “If that really isthe case, then why did Marshall privately ask me to not leave him?"

. Ashlynn’s gaze changed slightly.

“He said there's no way for the division of property to be settled properly, so he could only ask meto endure the grievance. However, I told him I don't want a title or status. I'm willing to stay by hisside. Of course, initially, I didn't want to tell you all this, but I see that Marshall is more and more inpain. I only hope that you could talk some sense into Beth, and ask her to resign voluntarily fromher position as the executive director and leave the Hilton family. Marshall will do right by her“Don't you think this thought of yours is too naive? Do you know how influential my mother is inthe Hilton family? Asking her to resign from her position as the executive director? What a joke. Shecould fire anybody, including my father. Perhaps you're delusional. In my eyes, my parents’relationship is very good, and my father is gentle and caring to my mother. He stayed close by herside without leaving at all when she got hurt. As long as my mother's at home, my father won't lether worry about anything. I really don't see how my father's in pain.”

"He's in pain when I say he’s in pain!” Teagan seemed to have been provoked when she heard whatAshlynn said, and she grabbed the flower on the table and threw it at Ashlynn.

Ashlynn’s back was injured. She has almost recovered, but she still did not dare to make any bigmovements, so the flowers smacked her directly on her head.

On the other hand, Corentin, who has just entered, happened to witness it.

His gaze instantly was filled with a viciousness that even the space in the room felt twisted.

Teagan looked at the man who entered He was covered all over with a frightening sense ofoppressive force that made her feel frightened, and she cowered a little

“What are you doing?” Corentin asked. His voice was as cold as ice

“I came to visit Ashlynn. I was just fooling around with her just now I don’t mean any harm. Ashlynn,have a good rest. I'll visit you again,” said Teagan, and then she walked off with her head lowered.She felt like she would not be able to leave the room anymore if she were to delay even a second.After Teagan left, the door to the ward was closed.

Ashlynn looked at Corentin’s eerily cold face and asked, “You won't do anything behind my back,right?” When Corentin looked at her, his face was already back to normal. “Am I that kind ofperson?”

He grabbed the flowers on the bed and directly threw them into the trash can

Then, he turned around and threw the fruits on the floor.

After he had done all that, Corentin turned around and looked at her. “Who is she?”

Corentin would have found out sooner or later even if Ashlynn did not tell him. “She seems to bemy father's first love or something. She didn't dare to look for my mother, so she came here toshow her dominance to me. I touched a sore spot, so she went berserk.”

"With means like that, she indeed can't compete with Beth at all.” Corentin sneered and bloody raysflashed across his eyes.

Ashlynn thought, "You're really rude. How can you directly address my mother by her name?”However, she did not say it out loud when it occurred to her that Corentin was not a normal person.Besides, it was not that important. It was impossible for her and Corentin to be together forever.They were destined to be a tragedy.
