Yet, she felt resistance.
The next second, her and Ashlynn’s hands were pulled apart.
Ashlynn was once again in Corentin’s hands.
Beth’s expression was ugly as she tried to intervene. “Corentin, what are you doing!”
Jeremy, who came over, grabbed Beth and stood up for her. “Corentin, where do you think this is? If you want to take Ashlynn away, it depends on whether the Hilton family is willing. Do you think Ashlynn is still the helpless girl she was before?”
Corentin’s dark eyes glanced sharply at him, and his subordinates approached, blocking the way aggressively.
Jeremy’s face darkened. “We have men too.”
Just as they were about to call for help, Marshall rushed over “Come on, lets not get in to a fight. Corentin, what is the meaning of this?”
Corentin’s face was gloomy. “She has the blood of the Hilton family flowing through her veins, and she is also
my
wife. According to the law, her life and death are decided by me, not you.”
The faces of the Hilton family all changed at his words.
They really did not expect Corentin to be so attached to Ashlynn.
Marshall was shocked at Corentin’s extreme actions. “Don’t hurt her If something happens to Ash, it will deal a second blow to us. Corentin, I hope you will be merciful to us.
For the first time, they saw the true nature of the Lloyd family’s heir
“I don’t want anything to happen to her either. Nothing will happen to her if she remains my wife,” Corentin said, holding the anxious Ashlynn with a calm expression on his face, negotiating with them.
He seemed so sincere.
“However, Ash does not want to be with you. You cannot make her Corentin, a marriage without feelings. leads to unhappiness,” Beth said.
Corentin smiled, but his eyes remained cold. “Isn’t Mrs. Wallace very happy now? The opportunity to become the next head of the Hilton family brings a joy that no one else can experience.”
Beth understood what he meant, and the stubbornness in her heart was intentionally provoked, causing her to lose her voice.
Marshall noticed Beth’s expression and scolded, “What nonsense are you saying?”
“Do not worry, I will take excellent care of Ashlynn. Everything that is mine will be hers. We will have two perfect children in the future.” Corentin could not bear to continue the conversation and took Ashlynn with him to the car.
“Ash!” Beth rushed to chase the car but was stopped by Marshall. Beth, who was getting angry, shook off his hand forcefully. “Do not touch me!”
“Beth…”
Beth watched the car leave, feeling completely depressed.
Marshall felt uncomfortable and tried to comfort her, “Since Corentin gave us his word, he will not and
dare not hurt Ash. The current situation is not in our favor.”
Jeremy also said, “A power struggle will only result in harm for both sides.”
Especially since his mother had just taken the position of chairman of the Hilton family, there were many uncertainties. Who knew if Corentin, a sinister villain, would do something behind her back.
There will be a solution, trust me,” Marshall said.
Beth remained silent, turned around and went into the house with sour emotions.
Jeremy felt uncomfortable and asked, “Dad, why did you marry Mom? Did you betray her before?”
“Do not speak nonsense!” Marshall scowled.
“Then what happened to that woman, Teagan?”
Marshall’s expression changed, and he went into the house without saying anything. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Jeremy was left with a heavy heart.
There was more than meets the eye.
Apparently, Ashlynn was his only source of comfort.
However, in a short amount of time, could they think of a way for Ashlynn to return to the Hilton house?
