Chapter 1386


    Ashlynn knew that this was the only way to stop Corentin and when she turned her face, she met


    Corentin’s dark, vicious eyes.


    He stood in rage, but had somehow managed to contain his temper.


    The family doctor arrived shortly after to check on Ashlynn, before helping her up from the ground


    slowly. The doctor pressed on her back gently and Ashlynn gasped, trembling.


    “It’s a good thing that her bones didn’t take the damage. If she was hit on the spine, she might have to


    spend the rest of her life on a bed,” the doctor said.


    Corentin had struck with all his might, aiming to cause as much damage as possible.


    Both worried and furious, Beth stared at Corentin with resentment and was determined to make him


    pay


    for it.


    “The soft tissue took some damage, though, so she needs to be on bedrest for a while,” the doctor


    continued.


    Beth decisively said to Marshall. “Take Ashlynn home.”


    Marshall was thinking the same and went over to lift Ashlynn up


    Sensing that Corentin was approaching, Beth stood in his way. “Corentin Lloyd, don’t think that I’m


    going to be scared of you simply because you are the heir to the Lloyd Family. You have injured


    Ashlynn, and I won’t forget that!”


    Corentin narrowed his eyes viciously.


    Worried that the situation would escte further as crossing the Hiltons would damage the Lloyd


    Family’s standing in Athetin, he said, “Corentin, just give up. If the Hiltons want to take Ashlynn home,


    I’m sure that they can take care of her. Don’t worry. Ashlynn will be back once she recovers. Sorry for


    the trouble, Beth. Marshall.”


    Beth could not be bothered to respond and took Marshall’s arm. “Let’s go!”


    Someone had sessfully taken Ashlynn away from Corentin’s side and it was the first time that had.


    ever happened.


    Corentin’s eyes glittered evilly, deciding that there was a need to look into what Beth said when she


    was


    panicking.


    “Are you really married to Ashlynn?” Cory asked.


    “Why, you want to send your heir back to the slum? You are not young anymore. Stop dreaming,”


    Corentin said, before turning to leave.


    Cory was furious. He had thought that he could control Corentin, only to realize that he was the one


    being. controlled


    Corentin was right. Cory held no leverage, while Corentin had countless possibilities in the future.


    Once Corentin was inside the car, he made a call to one of his subordinates. “Get me all the


    information rted to Beth Wace’s lost daughter.”


    He leaned back into the chair with his eyes closed.Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.


    He had felt from the start that Beth’s attitude toward Ashlynn was abnormal when Beth challenged him


    directly for Ashlynn’s sake.


    Beth had shown love for Ashlynn as though Ashlynn was a part of her family, especially when Ashlynn


    was injured earlier Beth had lost her temper right away and it was enough proof that Ashlynn was


    someone special to her


    Ashlynn grew up in the slum and was adopted, so Corentin suspected that Beth might be her biological


    mother


    Ashlynn returned to the room that the Hiltons prepared for her and felt slightly embarrassed by how


    youthful the decorations looked After all, she was not a teenager anymore and was not certain if such a


    style would be appropriate for her age.


    Beth and Marshall did not seem to notice it and ced her on the bed.
