Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies

Chapter 1399

Her back was filled with burnt wounds.

Ashlynn’s heart sank, a sharp pain piercing through her as though she was the one who was wounded.

She moved closer without making a sound and reached for the ointment resting next to the bed, before starting to apply it onto the wound as gently as possible.

She knew what caused the wounds.

It was when Corentin kicked Beth onto the coffee table where hot tea was served at the time.

She had thought that Beth was fine, and had not expected for her injury to be so severe.

Ashlynn resented Corentin, but feared him at the same time.

The trauma of him murdering her parents remained and he would not have hesitated or shown mercy simply because Beth was her biological mother.

Beth had thought that Marshall had returned. “Are you done with the phone call? Who was it?”

There was no response.

“I shouldn’t have asked. I won’t do that again,” Beth muttered.

Ashlynn could sense that something was wrong. She was impressed by how caring Marshall and Beth were toward one another earlier, but it seemed as though doubts existed in their relationship.

“Is Crescent down there? Wrap this up. We can’t leave her by herself. Go tell the cook to make her favorite dishes for lunch. She can only stay here for a night and we don’t when she can come home

again. I just don’t want Corentin Lloyd to be my son-in-law. So what if they get a divorce? I will keep Crescent close to me from now on and she has to marry someone that we approve of. That man is definitely not a good match…”

Ashlynn felt pleased as she listened to Beth bad-mouthing Corentin and thought, ‘Indeed, Corentin is a

bast*rd.’

“Mom, I will come over more often,” Ashlynn said.

Beth tensed and turned around in disbelief as she looked at the person. She had thought that it was

Marshall…

“What…did you just call me?” Beth could barely contain her emotions.

Feeling slightly embarrassed, Ashlynn muttered, “I…I…”

Beth threw herself into Ashlynn’s arms, weeping tears of joy. “I heard you. I heard you…”

“Your wound!” Ashlynn did not dare to touch her.

“It doesn’t matter. Do you know how happy I am? My daughter was home and called me ‘Mom’…I’ve waited years for this…” Beth broke down in tears. “Years…”

Tears welled in Ashlynn’s eyes. “I’m sorry…”

“No, don’t say that you are sorry. I’m glad that you came back to me, or I will never find real joy. Do you know how painful it is to lose a child? I wanted to kill myself for a while and blamed myself for losing you! “Beth finally felt like reality had hit her.

Her daughter was finally home and she could not control her emotions.

“It’s fine. It’s all going to be fine. I will stay by you and Dad’s sides from now on,” Ashlynn promised. Beth cried and even Marshall, who had been standing by the door, looked at the two with red eyes. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

They had been in misery ever since they lost their daughter and had lived through countless sleepless nights.

Marshall walked inside. “It’s fine now. We are never going to drift apart again.”

Ashlynn froze, before muttering, “D-Dad…”

She could not neglect Marshall after calling Beth ‘Mom’.
