Chapter <b>522 </b>Trespass
Ashley frowned and demanded, “What?”
Beathan lunged forward, <b>grabbed </b>Ashley’s wrist, <b>and </b>yanked her out of the car. This startled Mona, who shouted, “Ashley”
“It’s alright I’ll just be a moment.” Ashley turned around and reassured Mona before Beathan pulled her away.
He pinned her against a nearby utility pole. “Tell me, Ashley. Did you ever n on having a child? Getting pregnant was an ident, wasn’t it?”
Ashley felt uneasy at how close Beathan was to her, and his usatory tone made her deeply ufortable. Just as she wanted to respond, Beathan let out a sneer.
“You probably have no idea that Elias switched out your birth control pills. Those weren’t contraceptives you were taking, but fertility pills. He purposely got you pregnant!” Beathan said.
Ashley was dumbfounded.
For a moment, she couldn’t think straight,
It was impossible. Es, wild as he could be, surely wouldn’t stoop to such a despicable act.
Ashley retorted<b>, </b>“Beathan, stop it! I know Elias better than you ever will. Don’t be so shameless!”
Beathan smirked. “Don’t believe me? Look into it. I heard him say so myself.”
with that, he released his <b>hold </b>on Ashley. Then, he climbed into his car and drove away.
Ashley remained rooted for <b>a </b>long while. Seeing this, <b>Mona </b>rushed out of the <b>car</b>.
“Ashley? Ashley, what happened? Who was that? What did he say Mona said.
Ashley clutched her bag tightly and said after a pause. “It’s nothing important. Let’s go check on Emelie first”
She needed to find Emelie first After that, she would investigate this matter. If Es had really done so…
She held her belly with one hand and clutched her shirt with the other, wrapping her arms around herself.
Together, they climbed back into <b>the </b>car and drove off, unaware that their entire exchange had been witnessed by <b>a </b>woman in a sports car across the street. She wasted no time and dialed Elias” number right away
“Elias, 1 was just at your wife’sw firm, and I saw her hugging a man! The whole thing seemed really fishy. Yeah, right at the entrance. I even took a picture and sent it to your phone. You better check it out Thope she’s not cheating on you,” the women sad.
An hourter, the doorbell of Eastbay rang
A maid went to open the door, not expecting to see two police officers outside. She was taken aback <b>and </b>stammered, “How can I help you?”
“Good day, ma’am<b>. </b>We’re officers from Galmouth Road Police Station and these are our badges. We received a report of possible false imprisonment at this residence. May we speak with you for a moment? Are you the housekeeper, and is your employer home?” one of the officers <b>sald</b>.
The maid was visibly flustered. “False imprisonment?N–No, there’s nothing like that going on here. Our employer is Mr. Middleton of Cloudex Corporation. We would never do anything like that!
Mona, ever the impatient one, immediately shouted, “Don’t lie to us! It’s Willem! Eme! Eme, are you there?”
Emelle, who was eating breakdast in the dining room, was surprised to bear Mona. She hadn’t expected Mona toe looking for her.
Instinctively, she rose from her chair, but William pressed down on her <b>hand</b>.
Even though the police were here, William remained calm. “Finish your breakfast while it’s still warm. You’re going to get <b>a </b>stomachache otherwise.”
It was clear he was <b>trying </b><b>to </b>prevent Emele from responding to Mona who was outside. Emelie guessed that Mona must havee with Ashley. With her here, the police wouldn’t be easily dismissed. This was her chance,

Calmly<b>, </b>she sat back down.
Mona attempted to barge through the door, but she was stopped by the maids at the entrance. “Miss, you can’t trespass!”
Ashley <b>said </b>solemnly, “Emelie is our friend! William is holding her captive, refusing to let her kave or even contact us. This constitutes false imprisonment!”
The police officers‘ expressions hardened, and they stepped forward. “Please cooperate. We <b>have </b>to enter the house and investigate.”
The maid realized that she wouldn’t be able to stop them much longer, so she said, “Wait! Mr. Middleton is at home. Ineed to inform him of the situation first. If he gets angry, you won’t be able to handle the consequences!”
The offers exchanged a nce.
The Middletons were a powerful family. They didn’t want to ruffle any feathers unnecessarily, so they could only agree,
The maid sounded back inside, her voiceced with panic. “Mr. Middleton! There are police officers at the <b>door </b>demanding to see Mrs. Mikleton! What should we do?!
