Chapter 71


    Chapter 71 Why Were You Repenting?


    Deborah didn’t understand what he meant for a while and asked him lightly, “What do you mean?”


    Ashton was obviously agitated. His eyes were wide open, and he said, “I said, where did you put


    Alyssa’s ashes?”


    Rodger came in from the outside and stopped Ashton in a cold voice. “Ashton, if you still have some


    dignity, don’t bother Deborah


    again at this time.”


    Ashton killed his own daughter, and now he was moring for the ashes. Even a bystander like Rodger


    found Ashton’s behavior to be


    disgusting.


    Deborah ignored Ashton and looked at Rodger. “Dr. Denard, what do you mean?”


    Rodger sighed, but he still told the truth. “I used Alyssa’s hair to do another paternity test for Ashton.


    “The result shows Alyssa is his biological daughter. The previous result was wrong because Ashton


    carries two different sets of DNA,


    which is rare to see.”


    Ashton’s face was a little distorted. The words he had nned to say to force Deborah to hand over


    Alyssa’s ashes were hard to speak


    out of now.


    Deborah looked at him, acting like a fool, and smiled


    Ashton couldn’t help feeling regretful and said with some guilt, “Deborah, I misunderstood before. You


    just give me Alyssa’s ashes. I


    will properly bury her, and I need to repent of my sins.”


    “Repent my a s s Deborah looked at him with a smile, and her voice was very calm.


    Ashton’s face was a little stiff, and he said again after a while. “It’s because someone tampered with it.


    It’s not like I didn’t take blood for a paternity test before


    “I remembered that Ernest was the one who did the test that time, so it was obvious that he lied to me


    Don’t worry. I will make him


    pay the price and give Alyssa an exnation”


    Deborah was really disgusted by his words and interrupted him. “Why don’t you just die?”


    Ashton stopped talking abruptly, and his throat was so dry that when he opened his mouth again, he


    was unable to say a word.


    Deborah looked at him indifferently “Ashton, if you really want to repent, you can jump off the cliff by


    yourself. In that way, you and Alyssa will suffer the same pain. Then, you can apologize to Alyssa in


    person in heaven. That is repentance.”


    She paused and looked at Ashton with a pale face. Instead of standing here and still sparing no effort


    to push all the responsibilities


    and faults on an insignificant person.”


    To put it bluntly, what was Ernest? What was Helen?


    As long as Ashton paid slight attention or used his brain, what could they even do something with their


    weak troublemaking skills?


    There was surveince in the hospital, and there were Irrelevant people during the test, so the test


    could be done again in another


    hospital


    Even a bystander doctor could tell that Alyssa and Ashton looked alike


    The truth was basically written in front of Ashton’s eyes.


    But he didn’t look at it and he didn’t believe it.


    He just preferred to close his eyes, cover his head, and be set up by others


    Now that the truth could no longer be concealed and was exposed, he ran over and asked regretfully.


    “Where’s Alyssa’s ashes?”


    Ashton said with a deep voice, “The matter has already happened, and I can only do my best to make


    up for it.”


    Deborah sneered “Who needs it?”


    Ashton was a little speechless. “Deborah, listen to me…”


    “Who needs you to make up for it? Do you think the ashes need it, or me, who has one foot in the


    grave?” Deborah’s voice was calm,


    without much emotion.


    In the past, she dreamed of the day when Ashton would admit Alyssa was his daughter.


    In her imagination, if that day came, she might cry with joy, feel extremely wronged, or even lose


    control of her emotions.


    But now, the truth was finally clearly presented to Ashton.


    But there were no changes in her heart or no emotional fluctuations. She just felt a little ridiculous, so


    she couldn’t helpughing.


    Ashton said cautiously, “Can you give me Alyssa’s ashes? If you really don’t want to, you can just let


    me take a look. I won’t take it away. I’ll just take a look.”


    What else could he do now? Alyssa had died, and her body was cremated.


    He could see nothing but her ashes


    That child had stood by his side countless times, carefully called him daddy, and looked at him pitifully


    with fearful and expectant


    eyes.


    There was one time he braided her hair, and it was all crooked, but sheughed so happily.


    But he had never even called her by name, and even when he donated bone marrow to her to save her


    life, he was trying to force


    Deborah to have a baby and then let Alyssa leave Flora Vi.


    Until she died, all she heard only was Ashton calling her a bas ta rd.


    Ashton had never called her by her name.


    Ashton still remembered that once when she had a fever, she grabbed the hem of her clothes and


    asked him in a low voice, “Dad, can


    you give me a fly-up to the sky hug once? For other children, their dads would lift them high.”


    How did he respond then?


    He pushed her away, looked at her with disgust and said, “Go away!”


    After going out, Helen fainted outside, and he immediately camed Helen up and left in a hurry


    At that time, he seemed to be able to feel Alyssa’s lonely gaze behind him through a door.


    That was his daughter, his blood.


    Ashton couldn’t ept this fact, looked at Deborah, and begged, “Just let me see Alyssa’s ashes


    please.”


    Deborah looked at him with a smile. “When I just found out that you were going for a paternity test, I


    threw Alyssa’s ashes in the trash


    can outside the door. It’s in the corridor outside. Go and have a look.”


    Ashton looked at her sadly. “I want to hear the truth.”


    Deborah still had the same expression. “How many times have you told me this sentence? Ashton, I


    told you a long time ago. If you don’t believe me, don’t ask me.”


    Ashton panicked and immediately shook his head. “No. I believe you. I’ll go find it, and I’ll bring it back.”


    He turned around and walked out of the ward. There was arge trash can in the corridor outside the

    door with a ck trash bag.


    Hospital trash cans contained many things, including used tissues, swabs, medications, leftover food,


    and even blood and saliva.


    Ashton was such a noble person. When he had meals at home, if he saw some water stains on the


    tableware, he would leave the tableware and sk ip the meal. Then, he would fire the maid.


    Now it seemed like his brain was not functioning, and he started to rummage through the trash can in


    public.


    His slender fingertips and the cuffs of his coat were stained with something blo ody and dirty.


    Deborah felt a little nauseous looking at it, but Ashton still kept a calm expression, staring at the trash


    can and continuing to search.


    After searching for a while, he couldn’t find the um. He looked up at Deborah with a nk expression.


    “It doesn’t seem to be there. Did


    you remember it wrong?”


    Deborah leaned back against the door when Ashton kept leaning over to dig through the trash can. For


    the first time, Deborah looked


    down at him with downcast eyes.


    “I didn’t remember it wrong, but when I threw it away, I poured out the ashes. It’s in the trash can. Why


    don’t you pick out the ashes one


    piece by one piece?”
