Ch. 1246..1250: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1246-1250

Chapter 1246

Corentin picked her up and sat on the couch, soothing her like a child. “Is your stomach hurting?”

“No.”

“Don’t worry, that old man won’t dare to bother you again. Your baby will be born safely.” Corentin reassured her.

Ashlynn was not surprised at all. How could Cory stand a chance against Corentin?

After all, Corentin was his own son, an undeniable fact.

However, what about the Hilton family?

Cory knew about her pregnancy, and he wanted to take her away without Corentin’s permission, so it must have something to do with the Hilton family.

Nothing was that easy.

Ashlynn did not want to be caught in the middle of the battle between the Lloyd and Hilton families.

Cory was trying to figure out how to tell the Hilton family about this when he received a call from Beth.

Although Meredith was the daughter-in-law of the Hilton family, she was highly valued by old Mr. Hilton and had more power than his two sons.

It is often rumored that old Mr. Hilton was easier to fool than Meredith because of his age.

Cory prepared himself mentally and answered the phone, “Hello?”

“Mr. Lloyd, how is Jeremy doing at the Lloyd Group? Has he caused you any trouble?”

“No, Jeremy is smart and capable. I really like him,” Cory said politely.

“That’s good. But there’s one thing I don’t understand. I need to ask Mr. Lloyd about this. I heard that Corentin has another woman and has a child with her. Is this true?” Beth asked.

Cory could not deny it since Beth came prepared. His lies would be futile. “It did happen. I’m ashamed, and I reprimanded him severely.”

“Is a reprimand enough?” Beth smiled unsincerely. “Mr. Lloyd, the Hilton family agreed to marry Meredith to Corentin because of his outstanding character. Now that this has happened, don’t you think you should brush up on your education skills?

Cory’s expression turned ugly.

No woman had ever talked to him like this.

Corentin was at fault, though, and there was not much Cory could do to retort. Corentin is determined for the child to be born. I’m afraid it’s not that simple. Perhaps we should just…forget about the marriage?”

Beth sneered silently.

Forget about it?

That sly old fox!

If the marriage were called off, her family would be bombarded with criticism.

She had to do something about it.

“I believe that you dislike that woman even more than I do. Don’t you think that she will only become a burden to Corentin?”

Beth’s words struck Cory.

Ashlynn was Salvatore’s ex-wife, and Cory had always disliked her.

If Salvatore had not insisted on keeping her, he would have disposed of her earlier on!

“Then what do you propose?”

“I will wait until Corentin goes on a business trip. I’ll take care of that woman then. Can you let him go on a business trip?” Beth said.

Cory saw that she was willing to dispose of Ashlynn and thought, ‘Why not kill two birds with one stone?’

Beth said, “I know you’re feeling good about this, but don’t forget, we’re on the same boat.”

Chapter 1247

Cory was caught off guard, but he managed to compose himself and say, “Beth, you don’t need to worry about that. We are a family now, and we have to do things for the sake of our children. Nobody cares more about this than I do.”

“With your words, I feel reassured. Meredith actually loves Corentin. Otherwise, I would never have taken this matter into my hands,” Beth said.

“There are guards outside Corentin’s villa. It’s not easy for you to get close to Ashlynn. One of them is a man named Owen. You can look him up,” Cory said.

After hanging up the phone, Cory sat there with a composed expression.

He had to teach Salvatore a lesson.

In the evening, Corentin came to the villa and had dinner with Ashlynn. As expected, he planned to stay the night.

“I have to go to the neighboring city tomorrow for work. I’ll try to come back and have breakfast with you the day after tomorrow.” Corentin took her hand.

“Don’t worry about me. I’ll be fine here,” Ashlynn said indifferently.

She was trapped here waiting to give birth to a child, and no matter how kind

Corentin was to her, her heart was cold.

“Are you in a bad mood?”

Ashlynn looked at him and said, “Would you feel good if you were locked up here?”

Corentin tried to comfort her, “When I come back, I’ll take you out.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Ashlynn refused his offer.

Corentin did not feel angry with her rejection. As long as the baby in Ashlynn’s womb was safe and healthy, he could accept all her tantrums.

The next night, Corentin did not show up and was still in the neighboring town.

Ashlynn did not care.

She went back to her room as soon as it got dark after walking with Chichi.

Ashlynn gave up on trying to persuade Corentin to remove the surveillance cameras in the bathroom. He just would not.

After washing and returning to bed, Ashlynn idly scrolled through her phone, feeling someone’s gaze fixed on her body.

She knew that Corentin was busy with company affairs, so it was impossible for him to be watching her.

She figured it was the surveillance cameras that were giving her goosebumps.

After Corentin finished his work, he turned on the monitoring software on his mobile phone and saw that Ashlynn had fallen asleep, still holding her phone in her hand.

She was sleeping like a defenseless child.

Chichi, who was on the bedside table, was curled up into a fluffy ball, looking warm.

Corentin looked at Ashlynn’s face, thinking about what would happen after the baby was born, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

In the middle of the night, Ashlynn was fast asleep.

Chichi sharply pricked up its ears and called out, “Woof!”

“What’s wrong…” Ashlynn turned over sleepily but felt someone beside the bed. When she was just about to get up, someone covered her mouth. “Mmm!”

She took a deep breath, and a pungent smell entered her nostrils.

Her body became weak, and she passed out.

Ashlynn felt the glare of the light and blinked a few times before she could see where she was.

The pungent smell of potion, the doctor in a white coat, and… Beth standing next to him.

“You…” Ashlynn wanted to struggle but found that she could not move.

“Anesthesia has been administered. In a few minutes, the child in your belly will die,” Beth said sharply.

“You can’t do that…” Ashlynn said weakly.

Beth looked at her contemptuously and said, “Why can’t I? You can destroy my marriage, and now I’m not allowed to retaliate? I’ve seen a lot of women like you who will do anything in order to get rich men.”

Chapter 1248

“I never wanted to pursue Corentin…”

Beth sneered, clearly not believing her words at all.

“Corentin won’t forgive you…” Ashlynn said.

“You don’t need to worry about that.” Beth looked at her pale face without sympathy and told the doctor, “Hurry up!”

After speaking, she turned and left.

Ashlynn heard the sounds of the surgical utensils clinking.

She heard the exact same sounds when she had an induction some time ago.

Ashlynn finally waited until the day the baby was taken away, and she no longer had to give birth to Corentin’s baby.

However, when she felt the child being taken from her, tears still flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Why did she have to go through all of this?

When Ashlynn woke up, she was already in the ward.

She touched her aching belly, and her feelings were numb.

The child was gone.

The door of the ward was opened. Ashlynn looked over and met Corentin’s cold, expressionless face.

His breathing was a little heavy. He must have ran all the way here.

Ashlynn held the hands under the quilt nervously and sat up without much expression on her face. “It seems that your wish has come true, and the child is gone.

Corentin rushed up and grabbed her shoulders with such force that she felt as if her bones were about to get crushed. “Who did it? Who!”

“Mmm!” Ashlynn spoke with difficulty under the pressure on his shoulders, “This child… shouldn’t have come into this world.”

“Shut up!” Corentin yelled, his amber eyes bloodshot.

Ashlynn felt dizzy, and her face became paler.

“Who brought you here? Who performed the operation on you?” Corentin was furious. “I want them to die!!”

He kicked all the tables and chairs over in a frenzy.

Ashlynn huddled at the head of the bed, not daring to look at the furious Corentin, hyperventilating due to fear.

Cory came to the hospital, saw Corentin, who was out of control, and said angrily,” What are you doing? This is a hospital!”

Corentin walked up to Cory with a dark expression on his face. “Did you do it?”

“I’ve already allowed you to keep the child. Why would I do this?” Cory had a serious expression on his face.

Corentin’s eyes darkened. “The Hilton family did this then? Interesting…”

“This matter is still being investigated. Why do you think it was the Hilton family who did this? You are very emotional. Let’s talk about it after you calm down! This is all your fault, and everyone knows it. Fortunately, you have a fiance, and you can have as many children as you want. The children you have with Meredith will be pure- blooded and noble! Even if Ashlynn’s children are born, they will still be bastards!” Cory said solemnly.

Ashlynn’s expression changed.

Although she knew she would not be allowed to give birth to the child, she still felt a pang of sadness when she heard that.

“Old man, I’ll kill you!” Corentin pulled out his gun and pointed it at Cory.

Cory could not believe it.

Stallone, behind him, hurriedly stood in front of Cory. “Young master, calm down! You don’t want to do this!”

Cory was so angry that his body was shaking. “You…you rebellious piece of scum! Shoot me! Come on! Do it!” He pushed away Stallone in front of him, his head in contact with the gun. “Do it!”

Chapter 1249

Corentin’s gun was loaded, and his finger was on the trigger.

Cory and the others just looked down.

Ashlynn screamed in horror, “Corentin, don’t! Don’t be crazy! I’ll tell you the truth, even if this never happened, I would still try to get rid of the baby!”

Corentin turned his head, his bloodshot eyes staring at her. “What did you say?”

“I never wanted to have your child. You know that! You’ve always been forcing me…” Ashlynn’s words stopped abruptly as the gun was pointed at her forehead.

“Say it again!” Corentin’s eyes were full of fury.

Ashlynn’s heart skipped a beat. She suppressed her fear of death and closed her eyes. “Shoot me then…”

Cory watched Corentin’s hand shake as he gripped the gun; no one wanted to hear the gunshot more than he did.

Women who were in a relationship with Salvatore should die!

Ashlynn was not afraid of death, and she was just afraid of being with Corentin.

If she had to pay the price, she would choose to die!

Her future was bleak and hopeless anyways.

She was alone and helpless when she was abandoned by her parents.

Just as Ashlynn was waiting to be killed, a palm slammed into her face.

“Hmm!” Ashlynn was slapped so hard she fell on the bed, her face red and swollen.

Corentin acted as if he had not seen Ashlynn’s misery and looked at Cory with a fierce expression. “I will definitely look into this matter, and you’d better not let me discover that you were behind all of this.”

“Corentin, you are my son. No one cares more about you than me. Think about it carefully. I was the one who gave you the money and power you now possess.”

Corentin took a few steps forward, exuding a sinister, murderous aura. “You are wrong, I earned all this by myself. Do you need me to remind you about that?”

He was talking about how the real Corentin died.

Cory took a deep breath and said, “Stop mentioning the past. I hope that you can take control of the situation. After all, the Hiltons and the Lloyds are a family, and we should do what is best for us!”

After speaking, he left the ward.

Stallone followed behind him. “Sir, young master is feeling very emotional now, and he will be more reasonable later. I hope you don’t get mad at him.”

“No matter how powerful I was back then, my son still gives me attitude!” Cory growled.

“He is powerful now, and he thinks he can do whatever he likes,” Stallone said.

“It’s all because of Ashlynn getting in the way!”

Ashlynn sat on the bed, half of her face swollen and expressionless, and she did not even think about struggling.

When she was near Corentin, even if she was not afraid of death, she still felt fear. Death was nothing compared to the things he could do to her.

Corentin took her chin in his hands and lifted it forcefully. “Are you satisfied?”

Ashlynn looked at him, those amber eyes like those of a nocturnal wolf’s, full of ferocity, and she did not know what to say.

“Did I mention before that if the child is not born, you will suffer the consequences?”

Ashlynn tried to retreat, but the hands on her face made it impossible to do so.

She gasped. “Corentin…I was not the one who orchestrated this…”

“I’m very suspicious of you now. What role did you play in this incident?” Corentin pushed her face away hard.

Ashlynn fell onto the bed, fingers limply clutching at the blankets.

When she answered the call, she heard Corentin shouting, “Throw the dog into the crocodile river!”

Ashlynn could not believe it. She struggled to get up, threw herself on the edge of the bed, and grabbed Corentin’s clothes. “Corentin, you can’t do this! Corentin… please! Don’t hurt Chichi! What did the dog do to offend you?”

Corentin gripped her wrist hard and twisted it.

“Ah!” Ashlynn let go of his clothes in pain.

 

Chapter 1250

“I just want a baby. What’s wrong with that?” Corentin’s face was close, looking crazed and twisted. “Someone has to pay the price for this.”

Shaking off her hand, he turned and left the ward.

“Corentin! Corentin! You can’t do this!” Ashlynn got off the bed and went after him. After running after Corentin’s ruthless silhouette, she wanted to rush up to him but was stopped by his subordinates. “Corentin, you can’t be so inhumane! Corentin, please let Chichi go… If you dare to do that, I will never forgive you!”

Corentin ignored her and disappeared down the corridor without looking back.

When Ashlynn dragged her tired body back to the mansion, she could not see Chichi.

“Chichi? Chichi?” Ashlynn grabbed the maid and asked, “Did you see Chichi? Did you see it?”

The maid shook her head again and again.

Ashlynn went everywhere to find Chichi, and the more she searched, the more frightened she became.

Would Corentin really do that to her dog?

She ran back here with only a sliver of hope. Would she lose that as well?

Ashlynn ran to the mansion again and asked everyone she met if they had seen Chichi.

The answer was always no.

Ashlynn went to the crocodile river, stood on the cliff, and looked down.

She saw nothing.

If Chichi was thrown into the crocodile river, would she really be able to save it in time?‘

Ashlynn had used up all her strength, and she passed out on the cliff.

When she woke up, she found herself in the room of the mansion.

The servants had brought her back.

She had not found Chichi yet!

Ashlynn did not want to be here for another second.

She wanted to leave with her weak body but saw Meredith at the door.

Ashlynn ducked, trying to get past her, but she did not notice Meredith’s outstretched foot and tripped over.

“What…”

Meredith was surprised. “Are you okay? Your complexion is really bad. Should I send you to the hospital?”

Ashlynn regained her strength, stood up, and walked step by step to the car that brought her there.

Meredith said behind her back, “You come from the slums, and yet you think you can compete with someone like me. How ridiculous.”

Ashlynn got in the car and returned to the mansion, sitting on the sofa in the room with tears in her eyes.

She called Corentin.

No one picked up the phone.

No matter how many times she called, he did not pick up the phone.

“Salvatore, go to hell!” Ashlynn broke down.

In the middle of the night, Corentin was drinking in the bar, and his men did not dare to enter for fear of disturbing him.

Only Paul and Owen went in.

The wine bottles on the coffee table had been emptied, and two more bottles fell on the ground. Corentin was in a terrible state.

Paul stepped forward to talk to him. “Mr. Lloyd, I would advise you not to drink excessively. As for the child… I express my condolences.”

Corentin raised his eyes sharply. He looked terrifying. “Your condolences? Paul, do you think I should be the one mourning?”

Owen lowered his head, feeling guilty. “Mr. Lloyd, it was my fault. I shouldn’t have let my guard down and let others take advantage of it.”
