Chapter 1390

"We've already done a paternity test.”

Aunt Cher’s suspicion was instantly denied and instead of feeling glad for them, she was furious and worried, she was worried for Meredith and furious that the woman they despised became the long- lost heiress to the Hilton Family.

It was a hard pill to swallow.

Ashlynn caught a taxi to a random street and wandered around until it started raining, so she went to sit down at a bus stop and stared outside dazedly, occupied with thoughts.

She had always known that she was adopted.

Every time her adoptive parents would get mad at her or beat her, though she could somehow manage. them with certain tricks, she would still think of her biological parents when she was alone. She would picture their appearances, their personalities and background. She had thought that her real family was in deeper poverty than the ones in the slum, or they would not have abandoned her. Some people even told her that she might have been abandoned because she was a girl instead of a boy.

The truth could not be more different than what she had imagined.

Her family was the powerful Hilton Family and when she found out that Beth and Marshall were her actual parents, she did not resent them, all she felt was bitterness and heartache.

Jeremy had mentioned that Beth suffered from depression after losing her daughter and needed medication to go to sleep at night. It took Beth years to slowly recover, and they had never stopped looking for their daughter, but their search bore no results throughout the years.

It was only reasonable that they failed to find her. No one would have expected that she had ended a slum.

The human trafficker was the culprit who caused the tragedy.

Had she not been sold, she would not have grown up in the slum, nor would she come to know Salvatore.

Just as she sank into despair in tears, a car stopped before the bus station and a man came out with a black umbrella.

She spotted a pair of expensive-looking leather shoes that were polished to perfection and looked up to meet Corentin’s dark eyes.

"Why are you so upset?” He asked tauntingly.

Without a moment of hesitation, Ashlynn turned to leave but was grabbed by the arm and dragged. backward to stand under the umbrella.

Ashlynn wanted to pull away from his restraint, but he simply pulled her back again harder than the time before. She slammed against his chest, aching from the brute force and hitting his stone-like chest,

She did not dare to back away again, knowing that Corentin would only try harder to stop her. “What exactly do you want?!” She roared.

"Why are you here? I thought you were recovering at the Hiltons?” Corentin locked her in place against his chest and narrowed his eyes as he studied her face.

“How is that any of your business?” Ashlynn was not In the mood for his games.

He sneered viciously, before dragging her into the car.
