Ch. 1261..1265: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1261-1265

Chapter 1261

The red blood streak looked like it had imprinted the artery on her skin.

“Two days later, I will send you to the Hilton family.”

Ashlynn looked at him with wide eyes, but she could not see him clearly because of the tears that blurred her vision. “Corentin, how could you…”

“You are Beth’s goddaughter now, and you must foster a good relationship with her. Stay at her place for a few days, and I will then fetch you back, okay?” Corentin’s voice was gentle, as though he was trying to comfort his precious little baby that had just thrown a tantrum.

Ashlynn clenched her jaw. She hated him. “Corentin, go to hell!”

“Don’t worry, even if I die, I will bring you to hell with me!” Corentin said, and then kissed her lips and bit them.

“Uhm!” Ashlynn felt the pain up to her scalp and struggled.

However, Corentin was like a beast that lost its mind, biting onto its prey’s throat in a deadly manner, forcing it to calm down and face its own death.

Ashlynn stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself.

She was dressed up elegantly and daintily.

However, her mouth was swollen, and her neck was full of streaks of blood, looking twisted like a ghost that climbed her way back from hell.

She reacted and frantically splashed water onto her face, neck, and hands to wash them again and again. However, no matter how she washed them, the smell of blood

lingered.

“Ah!” Ashlynn could not care about the injury on her neck and screamed.

She looked up and then pulled away the pinhole camera from behind the mirror.

This was not enough. She then went to search for other cameras within the room and pulled away all the cables that she could see.

She only pulled away three when she felt exhausted. She fell onto the carpet with her eyes full of agony.

She pulled away the cameras. So what if Corentin knew? Now… what else did she

have to lose?

Her pathetic life…

The surveillance cameras were damaged, but Corentin did not show up.

However, two days later, Corentin’s staff drove here and said, “Mr. Lloyd said to send you to the Hilton family.”

Ashlynn was forced into the car. The car left the mansion and went to the Hilton family’s place.

More accurately, they were headed to Beth’s place.

After half an hour, Ashlynn stood in front of the luxurious mansion that was fully equipped with everything a luxurious family had.

It was close to the lunch hour, so Beth would not be home. She was a workaholic. She would go to the office early in the morning. Then, who would be home?

Ashlynn did not see Jeremy at lunch the other day, so he should be at the office now!

Ashlynn knew what she had to face, so she had to prepare herself for it mentally.

However, no matter how prepared she was, there was always something that she could not expect.

As soon as she entered the hallway, a big pail of icy water splashed onto her face.

She would have been able to dodge it normally, but she was too shocked to react.

Who would expect themselves to be splashed with water.

“Ah!” Ashlynn cried out of shock.

The water flowed all over her, and she was soaked wet and dripping some unknown liquid.

She looked pathetic.

Aunt Cher came by and said, “Oh dear, who are you? Why are you standing here? I am pouring this away! But don’t you worry, this was just the water that I used for mopping. It does not stink.”

Ashlynn looked at the woman in front of her, a middle–aged, average figure with a face full of menace.

Chapter 1262

“Who’s here?” Meredith, who had just woken up, came downstairs.

Aunt Cher said, “Not sure. I think they might have entered the wrong residence.”

Meredith saw Ashlynn and immediately acted condescending. “Ashlynn, it’s you. Why did you make my house filthy as soon as you arrived?”

“Mrs. Hilton is the most particular about this, and I’m afraid she would be unhappy about this,” Aunt Cher said.

“Ashlynn, I give you a chance to clean up this mess.” Meredith used a tone as though she was speaking to the servant. She saw Ashlynn did not respond and did not budge, then asked, “You seem unwilling to? Don’t you want to be a Hilton? Can’t you do this? It’s a shame that my aunt had higher expectations of you! If you don’t do it, I will get someone to make you do it!”

Then, she stormed away.

Aunt Cher placed the pail and the rag on the floor. “Do it! Don’t think

you

to enjoy life.”

you are here

Ashlynn was indeed not here to enjoy her life. She was forced to be here by Corentin to be humiliated.

If she were not humiliated, Corentin would very much not be happy about it.

She weighed her chances, then squatted down and wiped away the water from the floor using the rag.

“Make sure you clean it thoroughly. You will have to clean it until I am satisfied. How dare you bully my Ms. Hilton? You should take a look at yourself in the mirror. Who are you to do so?” Aunt Cher said while looking down at her.

Ashlynn understood it. This servant must have a high status within the family.

She believed that the people within the house must have already been informed about her arrival. It was impossible for them not to know about it.

She was only acting to threaten her!

“Here! Where are your eyes? Are you blind?” Aunt Cher used her foot to point at the floor and then stepped right onto Ashlynn’s fingers.

“Ah!” Ashlynn screamed in pain, her face twitching. She wanted to pull her finger back, but Aunt Cher stepped even harder.

Aunt Cher’s facial expression twisted exaggeratedly. “How dare you seduce Mr. Lloyd? Do you think you qualify just because you are somewhat pretty? How shameless, clean it up properly!”

When she let go of her fingers, they were already all swollen.

Ashlynn could only endure it and wiped the floor quietly. After she was done, she asked, “Is this okay?”

“Do you think you only had to clean this place? This area is clean. What about the others?” Aunt Cher pointed her fingers left and right, almost poking into Ashlynn’s face. “You are here to face reality. You are not here to be a little miss, but here to be a servant!”

Ashlynn was mostly doing the chores after she got here.

It was always somewhere that needed cleaning or somewhere that needed her to move things.

She was deliberately not given any break at all.

When Beth returned home in the evening, she was cleaning up the weeds in the lawn, and the mowing machine was too heavy for her.

Meredith happily strode to Beth. “Auntie, did you have a busy day?”

“Manageable.”

“Auntie, don’t you work too hard. I feel bad for your body.” Meredith sweetly talked.

Beth was grinning ear to ear.

Ashlynn looked at their lovely interaction. That was something that she had never had.

It was also something that she wanted badly.

She knew that she did not have the fate for it.

She was also with the Hilton family, and she did not deserve to be even jealous about

1. it.

Beth saw Ashlynn, who was working from afar.

Meredith followed her gaze and said, “She had been working here for a day. I think Corentin is very pissed about not having the baby anymore and does not prioritize her anymore. Otherwise, why would he send her here?”

“Didn’t you see it at lunch that day? How would I take her as goddaughter if it was

not to keep Corentin calm? She is so filthy, and I don’t even want her on my lawn. Other people would laugh at us.” “Plus, I also wanted to understand why Corentin was still keeping this woman around even though they lost the kid. I think we might as well keep her close so that we can keep her on the watch.” Beth utterly looked down upon Ashlynn.

“Auntie is always so smart!” Meredith said.

It was dinner time, and Ashlynn was busy serving and waiting the table.

Chapter 1263

Marshall had a function somewhere else, so he did not come back home for dinner.

That left Beth and Meredith to be the only masters on the table.

Beth said, “The dishes are served already. Come and eat!”

Ashlynn then realized she was talking to her and was a little surprised. However, she declined, “Thank you, I will have dinner later.”

She knew that she was there to be a servant and would not imagine herself as a little missy in the household.

“If we asked you to sit, you better sit. Are you trying to defy the orders?” Meredith was scornful.

She totally could not understand why Corentin was so obsessed with her.

Ashlynn then sat down on the chair. The other servants served her with the utensils, and she said, “Thank you.”

Meredith showed contempt on her face as soon as she heard it.

Thanking the servants, what a cheapo.

Ashlynn just took one bite of her food when she heard Beth saying, “Tomorrow

onward, you will be in charge of all three meals every day.”

Ashlynn was stunned. “Me, alone?”

“There is no free lunch in this world,” Beth said.

Ashlynn kept quiet.

She thought, just endure this, and then she could leave here forever.

To leave Athetin city altogether.

In the remaining time for the dinner, she heard that Jeremy had always been out dating with girls instead of working on the business through Beth and Meredith’s conversations.

No wonder she did not see him.

However, if Jeremy knew that she was there as a servant in their family, she

reckoned both of them would feel awkward.

So, it was a good thing that he was not there.

Corentin would not let her stay there forever.

As soon as she was adequately humiliated, he would get her back to his side, living her past life that lacked freedom.

Ashlynn had been working on the three meals every day starting the next day.

When Marshall saw her doing the servant’s work in the morning, he wanted to say something but still did not manage to bring himself to say it.

Therefore, Ashlynn was completely worn out by the end of the day.

She did not even have time to have a break in between, because Aunt Cher had been keeping her on the watch, her witchy eyes following her all the time as though she could not wait to eat her up.

Ashlynn could not even sleep well.

It was because the servants‘ quarters were shared among a few people, and she could not believe that one of them, as a lady, could snore so loudly like a drill

throughout the night.

Ashlynn did not have sufficient rest, and she could not do her job well the next day.

“Ah!” Ashlynn yawned, and a plate fell onto the floor.

With a loud clunk, it shattered into pieces.

Aunt Cher dashed into the kitchen and immediately fumed, “Can’t you work properly? Do you know how much is this one plate? Did you do this on purpose?”

“Why would I do this on purpose?” Ashlynn found her question absurd.

Her reply immediately triggered Aunt Cher. She turned out to retrieve a long cane and then whipped on Ashlynn’s back.

“Ah!” Ashlynn felt her body freezing for a brief second, and then she fell to the sink. The skin on her back was scorching hot.

Chapter 1264

“How dare you to talk back! Do you really think you are here to be a missy?” Aunt Cher was whipping mercilessly at Ashlynn’s back.

“Ah! Uhm!” Ashlynn could not stand it any longer, grabbed hold of the cane, and snatched it over.

Aunt Cher did not expect her to fight back and said angrily, “Hand it over!”

She then aggressively went forward to snatch.

Ashlynn pushed her away, hard.

“Ah!” Aunt Cher fell on her bum and started wailing, “Someone get a hold of this disrespectful girl! She hit me! Whip her to death!”

The other servants immediately came by, hearing the commotion.

Someone helped Aunt Cher up.

“Tie her up! Lock her up in the room, and do not give her any food!” Aunt Cher pointed at Ashlynn, her face twisted like a witch’s.

It was almost as though she could only be pacified if Ashlynn were dead.

Ashlynn looked at the two servants who approached her, still with the cane in her hand.

She thought that if they ever laid a finger on her, she would immediately whip them and then leave the place.

“What is going on?” A man’s deep voice could be heard from the entrance of the kitchen.

Jeremy walked in.

The servants all dodged to the side as soon as they heard the voice. They knew who that was.

When Jeremy saw Ashlynn, he was stunned. “Ash, what are you doing here?”

Ashlynn was not too surprised. Instead, she was relieved by Jeremy’s surprise

appearance.

Otherwise, if Beth and Meredith had heard this, she would not end up well.

Jeremy saw the servant’s attitude in the kitchen and knew that they were up to no

good.

The thing was, why was Ashlynn there?

Before Ashlynn could say anything, Aunt Cher complained, “Young Master, this is Ashlynn… She was violent to me. She pushed me to the floor and hurt my waist!”

“You whipped me with this first.” Ashlynn lifted her hand to show the cane in her

hand.

“You broke the plate and talked back. You deserved to be whipped! You need to abide by the rules in the Hilton family!” Aunt Cher was still talking confidently.

Jeremy took one look around the room smartly, then said, “Dismissed. What a shame to see all of you gathered here like a mess. Ashlynn, you come with me.”

Then, he left.

Ashlynn tossed the cane away and followed.

Finally, Jeremy stopped when they reached the backyard. He turned around and looked at Ashlynn. “Can you please explain what is going on? I am so confused. Did I just see you cook?”

Ashlynn then told him what had happened.

Even if she did not tell him, Jeremy would eventually find out as well.

Jeremy did not expect that he was only out to have fun with the girls for a few days, and things had already escalated this far. Everything happened outside of his

expectations.

“I thought that Corentin canceled his engagement with Meredith because he regretted it and would like to turn over a new leaf. Then, why did you listen to him and come here to be a slave? Why are you so easily bullied?”

“No worries, I was born poor. These are not big challenges.”

“Why didn’t you call me?” Jeremy asked.

“I will only be here for a few days. When Corentin’s tantrum passes, I will go back home,” Ashlynn said lightly.

She was glad and comforted to see Jeremy taking her side.

After all, Jeremy was much more privileged than Corentin. He, indeed, was born with

a silver spoon. For him to show kindness toward someone unrelated to him was a testament to his personality.

“Don’t worry, and thank you. Please pretend that you did not see me while I am

around.” Ashlynn did not wish for Jeremy to see Beth or Meredith bully her.

She thought there was no need for him to have beef with his own family because of her.

That night, Ashlynn returned to the servants‘ quarters. There were other people around, and the room was filled with noise.

 

Chapter 1265

So, after taking a shower, Ashlynn decided to take a stroll outside instead of staying in the room.

She noticed the wound on her back during the shower.

Even though Aunt Cher was a woman, perhaps she had been working in labor all her life, and she was extraordinarily strong.

Ashlynn’s back had strips of red marks, they were all swollen, and some skin was even peeling.

She felt the pain when her clothes brushed against them.

So, she pulled down her collar over her shoulder, trying to see if it worsened.

“Are you injured? Is it serious?”

Ashlynn saw that it was Jeremy. She stood up and said, “Not really…”

Jeremy walked over and then pulled her blouse down. “Let me see.

“Wait a second…” Ashlynn was taken aback. How could this guy get so up close?

She was wearing something loose, and her top was easily pulled to the shoulder blade.

“Ah…” Ashlynn felt her neck slightly strangled and kept her mouth open.

Ashlynn’s shoulder blades were beautiful, and they looked like a pair of butterflies and unrealistically gorgeous.

Her smooth skin had four long streaks, and they showed a hint of blood,

“You need medication.” Jeremy frowned slightly. His good–looking face seemed slightly displeased. Aunt Cher was a little too much.

Just when he was about to withdraw his hand, a red birthmark on the side caught his attention.

It was a red mark darker than that of the swollen areas. It was small, like the tip of a nail, and curved like a crescent.

Ashlynn was about to ask him if he had done with the inspection, but she felt Jeremy’s finger touching her. She jumped and hastily pulled her blouse back.

Jeremy looked slightly stunned. She found it strange and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Jeremy quickly concealed his expression and answered, “Nothing. I will get someone to send you the medication.” Then, he ordered the servant to retrieve some anti- inflammatory medicine.

“Thank you,” Ashlynn said.

Jeremy stood under the balcony with his hands in his pockets, looking unbothered.” So, you grew up in the slum.”

Ashlynn had never felt ashamed of that, so she admitted, “This is not a secret.”

She thought if this was someone else, they probably thought of humiliating her, but Jeremy would not.

“Are your parents good to you?” Jeremy asked.

Ashlynn looked at him strangely and said, “It was alright. They did not give birth to me. It was good enough for them to provide me with food and shelter.”

She saw Jeremy was stunned for a brief moment.

“Is there any problem?” Ashlynn asked, then she said casually, “Are you thinking… That it was already pathetic enough for me to be born in the slum area and, worse, not to have my own parents, right?”

Jeremy hid his expression again and said, “No.”

Then, the servant came by with the medicine. “Young Master.”

Jeremy said, “Don’t stay in the servants‘ quarters tonight. Arrange a guest room for her.”

The maid was frozen in her original spot.

“Are you deaf?” Jeremy’s face turned dark.

Ashlynn knew that he was biased for her, but she was also born poor and offended Beth and Meredith. She was afraid that they were going to make a scene when they found out.

“No need for that. I am fine staying in the servants‘ quarters,” Ashlynn said against her will.

“This is an order.” Jeremy did not give her a chance to decline and then left.

He heard Ashlynn asking from behind, “You did not… fall for me, did you?”
