Chapter 782


    Anne thought back to when Corentin and Ashlynn had dinner together before and the way Corentin


    was looking at Ashlynn at the time. “Are you…interested in her?”


    If he was not interested in her romantically, it could not be hard for the CEO of the Lloyd Group to hire a


    proper assistant.


    “I am. Give me a chance?”


    “What’s Ms. Thompson’s thought on this? Tell her to call me. If she’s willing to stay, I have no choice.”


    Anne was reluctant and it was hard for her to find an assistant she liked. All things aside, Ashlynn


    resided in Luton and she did not seem to be a reckless person who would move to Athetin on impulse.


    After the call, Corentin got up and went upstairs.


    He was not in the office, but in his mansion at the moment. He walked toward the room and went inside


    the bedroom.


    Ashlynn, who was seated on the couch, jumped to her feet in fear as she stared at him warily.


    He strolled over and nced at the marriage application form, noticing that there was only his signature


    on the paper and Ashlynn’s signature was nowhere to be found.


    “How much longer are you going to make me wait?”


    Terrified, Ashlynn pleaded, “Don’t make me. Someone like you shouldn’t be with someone as lowly as


    me…”


    “You think I should look for someone with equal status as me?” He walked over to hug her from behind,


    before continuing in a sickening voice, “I will make a lot of money for you to spend. I mean that. Once


    we get married, half of what I have belongs to you. Do you know how much that is? It’s immesurable.


    Look at you. You are so happy that you are shaking.”


    Tears scrolled down Ashlynn’s face. What sounded romantic in the past had transformed into a


    nightmare that haunted her.


    “Come on. Sign it.” He pulled her down to sit down on hisp and grabbed her hand to make her sign


    next to his signature on the paper.


    Ashlynn struggled and sobbed, “No, Salvatore…I don’t want to get married…”


    Corentin was insanely strong and Ashlynn could not escape his hold until he had forced her to sign her


    name.


    She immediately tried to tear the paper apart, but Corentin swiftly snatched it away.


    “Salvatore…”


    “It’s going to be our wedding night tonight. Aren’t you happy?” He pressed his lips against her ear and


    nted a gentle kiss on her skin.


    Sensing the cruelty and ruthlessness hidden behind his gentle tone, she paled.


    “You know that I destroy what I can’t have.”


    She closed her eyes and shed a tear in devastation.


    “Anne has called to ask about you. Maybe you should call her back.” He watched as she


    opened her eyes hopefully, before saying, “Nevermind. I will just find someone with a simr voice to


    call her!”


    “No. I can call her back. I won’t say anything.” All Ashlynn could think of was to hang onto the


    opportunity, so she would have no chance of escaping.


    “Be a good girl.” He stroked her cheeks. “You are the almighty Mrs. Lloyd now. Your husband is going


    to take care of everything from now on.”


    Ashlynn’s eyes were filled with tears and fear when Corentin left with the marriage paperwork. When


    the door shut behind him, Ashlynn broke down in tears as she realized her worst nightmare hade


    to life.


    Salvatore had somehow be Corentin, which simply gave him the license he needed to do


    whatever he wanted.

    At noon, Ashlynn was forced to eat with Corentin like they were truly a married couple.


    Though anyone would feel odd to see Anne’s assistant dining with Corentin, there were only servants


    in the mansion and they all simply focused on their chores without saying a word.
