Chapter 1277


    Ashlynn was taken to the room and noticed that the interior was drastically different from the guest


    room. She did not know how much the interior cost, but it was decorated in a weing manner. The


    overall color of the room was avender tone, including the curtains, with crystals draping over it


    elegantly.


    ‘Is this really my room? If Jeremy didn’t take me here, I would have thought that this was Meredith’s


    room,’ she thought.


    “Do you like it?” Jeremy asked.


    “Why… did you guys give me this room?”


    “We told you. You are a member of our family now. You will only be treated better than Meredith, not


    worse.”


    “But why?”


    Ashlynn knew just how much Beth hated her and everything that was happening was beyond her


    comprehension; she even felt as though they were plotting something.


    “I’m the eldest son of my generation in the Hilton Family. What I say matters,” Jeremy said confidently.


    Ashlynn doubted his words for a moment but epted his exnation in the end, as the changes had


    indeed urred after Jeremy talked to Beth and Marshall.


    He patted her on the head. “I’m going.”Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    She bowed her head and watched as he walked out of the room, wondering why he had patted her on


    the head.


    Jeremy, on the other hand, nced at his hand and thought to himself, ‘Is she really my older sister or


    my younger sister? She just needs to be protected!’


    Ashlynn walked around the room. The bedroom and ensuite bathroom were spacious, and there were


    even two shelves in the walk-in closet.


    She moved all her belongings from the guest room, including the clothes and jewelry that Jeremy had


    bought for her earlier that day.


    She had not worn any of them as she felt like she did not deserve them. When someone treated her


    with kindness unconditionally, she would often feel terrified.


    ‘Maybe it’s the result of being abused all my life…’ she thought to herself.


    She sat down on the soft mattress and admired the room when her phone started ringing.


    It was a notification of an unread text message.


    She took out her phone and unlocked it before starting to tremble when she noticed that it was from


    Corentin.


    ‘Why would he text me at this time? Is it a threat?’ she thought.


    No matter what he said, she was determined to stay here. The Hiltons had given her the hope she


    needed to survive.


    She hesitated before opening the video that was attached to the message, all the while confused as to


    why he had sent her a video.


    She yed the video and saw a clip of her showering in the bathroom. The screen shifted shortly after


    to the intimate moments between her and Corentin from all angles on the bed and in the bathroom.


    She stood abruptly and paled.


    The sight overwhelmed her. Her chest heaved, and she immediately deleted the video before dialing


    Corentin’s number with a trembling hand.


    He answered the call right away as though he had been waiting for her to call all along.


    He remained quiet once the call was connected while Ashlynn panted frantically and questioned,


    “Corentin, when did you film those? You had cameras in your room?”


    She recognized the room decoration and the bed from Corentin’s master bedroom.


    “Do you like it?” Corentin asked in a husky voice.


    “Corentin Lloyd!!” she screamed hysterically.
