Ashlyn was married into the wealthy Jones family for three years, yet her position in the family was worse than that of a dog.
One day, unfortunately, she accidentally fell into the swimming pool with Arabella, the wife of the eldest son. Despite the high fever and poor health of Ashlyn her own, the family wronged, scolded, and punished her for pushing Arabella, without regard for any of her explanations.
Ashlyn used to held onto the naïve belief that her husband Gordon would someday warm up to her. When he gave her an ultimatum to kneel before the family or divorce, Ashlyn knew all her hope disappeared completely, and chose the latter in tears.
Louisa had already found the perfect place, which was located in a very good location right smack in the middle of an entertainment hub. She had bought a barbecue restaurant, but the place was a little small, so she ended up buying the store downstairs too. She now wanted to connect the two places as…
Gordon was staring at Devin and Ashlyn, who were standing close to each other. From Gordon’s point of view, it looked like Devin was holding Ashlyn in his arms. Ashlyn wasn’t looking at Gordon anymore. Gordon frowned, glanced at Devin and walked away immediately. Now that they were divorced, what Ashlyn did was none of his business. He thought she was…
Gordon felt uncomfortable under Ashlyn’s gaze. She had never looked at him like this or spoken such unpleasant words to him. Gordon frowned, his expression darkening instantly. “Don’t play hard to get. Do you think I’m going to buy it?” Aiken sucked in a sharp breath at this. Gordon had gone too far this time. Ashlyn looked at him,…
With a straight face, Gordon walked past Devin and glanced at Ashlyn, who was standing behind Devin. “You’re good at playing these games.” And to think he had actually worried that she’d be fooled by Devin. How foolish! Ashlyn’s good mood was completely ruined. The bitter and unresolved feelings at the bottom of her heart resurfaced,…
As Ashlyn approached the door of the apartment’s building, she subconsciously looked behind her and noticed that Devin hadn’t taken his eyes off her. Shocked, she allowed her gaze to linger on his face for a while. Afterward, she looked away and walked into the apartment building. Absent-mindedly, she walked into the empty elevator, lost in…
Payne was a professional. Within two hours, he managed to get Ashlyn out of trouble. Ashlyn disguised herself in a cap, a mask, a plain T-shirt, and jeans. She went downstairs and found only a few paparazzi waiting at the door of the apartment building. She casually walked past them, and nobody noticed that it was her.…
Aiken shook his head helplessly and trotted over to the door of Gordon’s study, only to find that he was locked out. Aiken touched his nose sulkily. Thinking about the way Gordon treated him just now, Aiken didn’t have the courage to knock at the door again. At a loss, Aiken sighed, turned around, and left.…
In all her years on this earth, she had never waited for anyone. So, in her eyes, waiting for Ashlyn meant that she was being sincere. The elevator doors slid open and Talia, Ashlyn’s secretary, came out. Denise stood up and sauntered over to Talia with an arrogant air. “Where is Ashlyn?” Talia looked at her…
In the past, Ashlyn would have looked hurt over Arabella’s words. But this time was different. Ashlyn not only found her words irrelevant but also mocked her in return. Arabella was stunned when she heard Ashlyn’s words. For a while, words failed her. When she came back to her senses, she said, “You are more confident now, Ashlyn.”…
Ashlyn was more decisive and tenacious than many people, but love could blind a person, rendering them a fool. What Talia feared most was that Ashlyn would forgive Gordon if the latter wanted her back. Noticing Talia kept glancing at her throughout the ride, Ashlyn raised her eyebrows and asked, “Is there anything on my face?” Embarrassed, Talia answered…
