Chapter 1095
Anthony narrowed his eyes, before lifting her up forcefully.
“I can walk on my own!” Anne instinctively reached up to grab his shoulder, but continued to kick her
feet in the air.
“You are going to fall,” he reminded.
Anne stilled, knowing that if she fell from the arms of someone with Anthony’s height, she would be in
pain.
‘How can he be so horrible?‘ She thought. ‘Heforts me whenever necessary, then turns around to
be all lovey–dovey with Bianca. I don’t want this! Every time he touches me, I feel like I can’t breathe!‘
They walked back to the mansion and when Anne heard her triplets‘ cheerful voices, she demanded
darkly, “Let me down.”
Seeing the expression on her face, Anthony decided not to push her and set her down.
As soon as her feet touched the ground, Anne walked forward with the aid of her cane. It was t
ground so there was nothing in her way.
“Mama, this is Great–Aunt’s teacup dog. It’s so cute!” Chloe held the dog in her arms, amazed by how
tiny it was.
Anne reached out and Chloe presented the dog to her mother’s touch.
“So tiny. It’s really cute,” shemented with a smile as though what happened earlier had not
affected her at all.
The triplets had taken a liking to the dog and insisted on taking it with them on their afternoon nap.
When Ashlynn walked into the room to find three adorable children asleep on the bed with her dog
beside them, she hade to take her dog away, but gave up eventually as she knew that the children
would be happy to wake up to the dog next to them.
Anthony and Anne left after dinner. The triplets struggled as they parted with the dog and promised to
visit again.
Ashlynn’s dog seemed to like them as well and ran after them, despite almost getting blown away by
the helicopter.
Ashlynn hurried over to lift her dog up and waved at the helicopter.
The triplets pressed their chubby cheeks against the ss windows until everything. on the ground
faded from their sights.

When Ashlynn woke up in the morning, Corentin was nowhere to be seen on the bed. and inside the
room. She headed to the closer to retrieve the pills in the pocket of her coat and threw one pill into her
mouth.
As soon as she swallowed it, Corentin appeared out of the blue and her heart
skipped a beat. She grabbed the clothes next to her smoothly and asked, “What are you doing here?”
There were two sides of the walk–in closet and this side contained only her clothes, so there was no
reason why Corentin would be seen here.
“You are up early. Still have a lot of energy in you?” Corentin approached and pinned her against the
closet door, with the coat she used to hide the pills right behind her.
Ashlynn’s heart threatened to leap out of her chest, so she shoved at him and said, ” You know that I
don’t. Can you let go?”
“Let’s pick up where we left offst night, hm?” He pressed his lips onto hers and nibbled on her lower
lips.
She moved closer as he pulled, horrified that he would break the skin of her lower lip. “Salvatore, that’s
enough.”
He snorted and refused to let go. “It’s not like you don’t know how far I can go. Other women can only
hope for this kind of treatment…”
Ashlynn looked away and thought, ‘As if I want this kind of treatment at all.‘
She shoved him away. “I’m getting out.” She walked to the entrance of the walk–in closet and turned
around to find Corentin standing in the same spot facing her. She would not have cared if he was
elsewhere, but as she could not risk having her secret exposed, she shot him a confused look. “What’s
wrong? Aren’t youing for breakfast?”
He narrowed his eyes mysteriously, before walking past her. “Of course, I’ming.”
Ashlynn’s racing heartbeat eased slightly as she followed his steps.
Back in the office, Ashlynn was about to deliver the documents she received from Evan to Corentin, but
no one responded when she knocked on the door.
She opened the door and realized that Corentin was not inside his office.
As an assistant, she had no right to question where he went, so she simply ced the documents on
the table and left.
Meanwhile, Corentin was back in the mansion.
