Chapter 586
“Grandma, can I ask you something?” Ashlyn approached Susan with a document in her hand.
“Don’t be a stranger dear. What’s wrong? What do you want to know?” Susan responded without
looking up as she was busy peeling garlic.
Ashlyn stared at her intently and inquired, “Are you aware that I’m not my father’s biological daughter?”
Susan dropped the garlic in her hands as panic shed across her eyes. She quickly picked up the
peeled garlic and asked, “Ashlyn, what are you babbling about? How can you not be your father’s
daughter?”
“Grandma, this is the result of the paternity test between my father and I. It shows that we are not
rted.” Ashlyn held up the document pouch.
Her heart sank as she stared at Susan.
Nothing was more painful in this world than being lied to by your loved ones.

“Grandma, how did my mom die? How long do you want to keep that from me?”
“Your mom was killed in a car ident.” Susan didn’t expect Ashlyn to do a paternity test.
So what if you know you’re not Horace’s biological daughter? Your mom has been dead for so many
years, so it’s not like you can ask her anything.
“Ever since I was young, I have always treated you with respect. I shared everything I have with you. I
have deposited roughly fifty million into your bank ount already ever since I joined the workforce.
Also, do you know who beat up the vige bully that gave you trouble? It was me! Grandma! Have you
forgotten how we only had each other while we were living in the vige?”
When Susan heard Ashlyn’sints, she looked away awkwardly.
“I didn’t forget, Ashlyn. My love for you is real. It’s just that, I really don’t know much about the matters
rted to your mom. Even though you’re not a biological member of the Berry family, I still love you all
the same. However… you will have to decide whether you still want to acknowledge me as your
Grandma. I’m fine with whatever your decision is.”
Susan felt miserable. “I really don’t know how did our family end up like this. Your dad is in prison, while
Mary and her daughter ran away. Meanwhile, you’re are not Horace’s biological daughter. Oh! What did
I do to deserve this?”
Just as she spoke, she broke down in tears.
“No matter what, the Berry family has taken care of you for so many years. It’s heartbreaking enough
that you are not appreciative of my effort, but now here you are questioning me? Your dad is in prison
and yet you don’t care about him. I’m just an olddy, what more do you want from me? Do you still
have a conscience? After spending so many years bringing you up, have you repaid me? Now that I’m
alone, who can I me? You, of course! I shouldn’t have taken you in. I should have let you die
together with your mom and your sister instead.”
Ashlyn was taken aback. Her heart ached as she felt as if she was looking at a stranger.
How did the person I know best and am closest to feel so distant?
Why did matters turn out this way?
She felt an overwhelming pain that numbed her heart. How can Grandma say something so harsh? Is
my rtionship with Grandma so weak that it can’t ovee the fact that we are not rted by blood?
She didn’t know how she walked out of the Berry Residence. As she wandered along the road
aimlessly, it began to drizzle. The raindrops that fell onto her body felt cold.
At Whind Vi.
Lucas was taking a bath.
When ire heard the sound of the shower from the bathroom, she tiptoed into the bedroom and
checked Lucas’ phone on the bedside table.
After trying a fewbinations, she still couldn’t unlock it.
However, she wasn’t at wit’s end just yet. With a devious smile, she quickly made short work of the
phone and unlocked it easily.
As a member of the research team at Nn Group’sb, unlocking a phone screen was considered an
easy task.
She quickly searched for the phone number tagged under “Honey” and saved it down.
After that, she put his phone back to where she found it.
When everything waspleted, she quietly left the room.
