Ch. 1421..1425: Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies Chapter 1421-1425

Chapter 1421

“It’s not like that. He has been here keeping me company recently and he didn’t even go to his company* What Ashlynn said was true. “I deliberately asked him to go somewhere else.”

Beth grabbed her hand “Silly girl, why did you take a bullet for him? Do you know how important you are? If something were to happen to you, how are your father and I supposed to live? We’ve finally found your after going through so much hardship…”

Ashlynn could not bear to look at Beth, who was holding back the tears welling in her eyes. “Mom, Dad, I’m sorry. Corentin is my husband. I don’t wish for him to be injured. But it’s fortunate that I’m fine. It’s frightening, but I’m not in danger. I promise both of you I won’t do this anymore in the future.”

Beth calmed herself and asked, “Where did you get hurt?”

“The bullet entered my body from my back but avoided any vital organs.” Ashlynn wore a gentle smile on

her face.

Her family saw that her face looked slightly flushed, so they knew she was recovering quite well. It was just that they felt extremely worried for her.

Why must their daughter go through so many disasters and hardships?

“I wish that all of your disasters would come at me instead and not torture you anymore.” Beth touched her face gently and with sorrow. “I really was almost scared to death…”

“I don’t want that. I wish that my family would all be fine. Also, I came from the slum, so my character is stronger and more optimistic. Dad, Mom, you have to look on the bright side.” Ashlynn’s mindset was

quite good.

“What bright side? I was extremely anxious,” said Beth.

Marshall put his hand on Beth’s shoulder to comfort her. “Don’t cry anymore. She’s fine and that’s enough. But Ash, who’s the person who fired that shot?”

“I don’t know. Corentin is still looking into it,” said Ashlynn.

“I think it’s Corentin who has offended someone out there, but he got Ashlynn involved,” said Jeremy.

Marshall said, “It’s very normal to offend people in the field of business. It’s just that I’ve never seen. anybody assassinate with a gun. This is too savage.”

Ashlynn felt so too.

The person fired a shot in broad daylight. It was a silenced gun, but it was still very shocking.

“It looks like you’re very fond of him. You actually took a bullet for him. You really don’t care for your life anymore.” Jeremy was very angry at the thought of it.

Ashlynn could not tell him what she was truly thinking deep down. Also, walls have ears. She could not let all her efforts go to waste.

“As I said, Corentin is my husband. Of course, I don’t wish for him to get hurt.”

“So, it’s fine for you to get hurt?” Jeremy asked in return.

“Nobody wishes for someone to get hurt, regardless if it was him or myself. I believe if Corentin was the one who saw the person firing the gun, he would also risk everything to save me,” said Ashlynn.

Corentin’s gaze deepened when he heard what Ashlynn said as he stood outside the ward, then he turned

around and left.

“I don’t know what you like about him.” Jeremy was not quite happy as he sat on the chair, and he did not

look at her anymore

It was as if he would get angrier if he looked at her

Beth said, “I’ll use my connections later and have them look into this properly. He has hurt my daughter I won’t let him leave Athetin.”

After Beth left the hospital, she did not go to her company but she returned home

She ordered the chef to prepare some nutritious food. She wanted to watch the entire process, and then bring the food to the hospital.

“Mrs. Hilton, is this prepared for Ms. Ashlynn?” asked Aunt Cher, “Is she not feeling well?”

“She’s a little unwell, but it’s no big deal. She’ll be discharged from the hospital in a couple of days. I’ll bring this over when it’s done.”

Aunt Cher’s gaze lit up with a scheme in mind. “Why don’t I deliver it? This kind of thing should be done by servants like us.”

“No need. I’ll personally deliver it to her.”

“Then I’ll go along with you!”

Beth was thinking that she certainly would not be able to carry everything by herself since there were too many, so she agreed.

Dinner was delivered to the ward before half past five in the evening.

“Mom, there’s no need for you to deliver dinner to me anymore tomorrow. Corentin has already arranged for someone to deliver three meals a day to me, anyway,” said Ashlynn.

Chapter 1422

“He can deliver his and I’ll deliver mine. If you can’t finish it, just leave it,” said Beth.

Ashlynn knew her mother was feeling sorry and guilty.

If she did not do all these, she would feel even worse. Therefore, she simply let her mother be.

“Where is he?” asked Beth.

Ashlynn knew who she was asking about, so she said, “He went out to answer a call.”

“Ms. Ashlynn, how are you feeling? You should be getting discharged soon, right?” Aunt Cher asked while arranging the food.

“In two days.”

Beth sat next to her and watched her eat. “How does it taste?”

“It’s good.”

“I don’t know how to cook. Otherwise, I would have personally cooked for you.”

“It’s better for you to not do that. It’s too tiring.”

“No matter how tiring it is, I’ll feel happy cooking for my daughter,” said Beth with love.

Aunt Cher felt bitter as she stood next to them.

After she returned, she told Meredith about Ashlynn getting hurt but she did not know how Ashlynn got.

hurt.

Corentin happened to receive a call after lunch at noon, so he went out to answer it.

Ashlynn was reclining on the bed and wondering what kind of call it was that he needed to avoid her.

There was no need to avoid her if it was a work call, was there?

Could it be that they have caught the man who fired the shot?

The door to the ward was pushed open and Corentin came in. “I’ll first return to my company.”

“Alright.” Ashlynn looked concerned, but was actually curious. “Everything is alright, right?”

“It’s just some trivial matter.”

“I’ll be fine. Go on then!”

Corentin lifted her jaw and kissed her soft lips. “I’ll be back very soon. Just take a nap. I’ll have someone stand guard.”

After Corentin left, Ashlynn played with phone for a while, and when her eyes got a little tired, she prepared to take a nap.

Then, she heard a woman’s voice outside. “Please let me in. I am a friend of Ashlynn’s father. It’s not a problem to visit my friend’s daughter, who’s sick, right?”

Ashlynn’s ear pricked up. This voice sounded very familiar. Who was it……

“Mr. Lloyd is not around. She won’t be seeing anybody.” That was the voice of Corentin’s subordinate.

It looked like Corentin had someone guarding the door after he left.

“Ashlynn will definitely see me. Why don’t you go in and inform her?”

The subordinate opened the door and entered “Mrs. Lloyd, a woman named Teagan Stagsorrow wants to come in. Do you want to meet her?”

Teagan Ashlynn had heard this name from Jeremy As expected, it was her

“Let her in. I’ll see what she has to say ” Ashlynn was very curious about this woman’s motive

She kept appearing in front of her over and over again. How could her motive be simple? Teagan entered the ward, and the subordinate closed the door.

When Teagan got to the end of the bed, she was still looking elegant and gentle. “I heard from that you’re ill, so I came to visit. I brought you some fruits.”

your father

Chapter 1423

She placed the fruits and fresh flowers on the table.

Ashlynn glanced at all those things. “You didn’t just come here to pay me a visit, did you?”

“I believe you must be very curious about me.”

“Why do you say so?”

“You wouldn’t have let me in if you were not curious,” said Teagan.

Ashlynn thought that it was fortunate that her mother was a smart person. Otherwise, such a woman would have taken her mother’s place and married her father!

“I used to be together with Marshall. We dated for two years and we were very in love. If Beth didn’t come between us, how would I end up being dumped?” Teagan looked sad, which looked very easy for others to pity her.

“Why are you telling me all this? These are all in the past now. My parents are very in love, and they have two children, my younger brother and myself. We are a complete family. You should go and search for your own happiness instead of staring at my family all the time,” said Ashlynn, “It’s immoral for you to do so.”

“Immoral?” Teagan’s gentle expression was mixed with hatred. “Is it morally acceptable for her to steal the person I love away from me then? The person Marshall loves is me. He was forced by the Hilton family to marry Beth. They tore us apart.”

“If a man truly loves you, he would marry you no matter what and not marry someone else instead. Don’t forget that my father is not the only son of the Hilton family. I still have an uncle!”

“That’s impossible!” Teagan smiled, and her gentle and elegant look was restored. “If that really is the case, then why did Marshall privately ask me to not leave him?”

. Ashlynn’s gaze changed slightly.

“He said there’s no way for the division of property to be settled properly, so he could only ask me to endure the grievance. However, I told him I don’t want a title or status. I’m willing to stay by his side. Of course, initially, I didn’t want to tell you all this, but I see that Marshall is more and more in pain. I only hope that you could talk some sense into Beth, and ask her to resign voluntarily from her position as the executive director and leave the Hilton family. Marshall will do right by her

“Don’t you think this thought of yours is too naive? Do you know how influential my mother is in the Hilton family? Asking her to resign from her position as the executive director? What a joke. She could fire anybody, including my father. Perhaps you’re delusional. In my eyes, my parents’ relationship is very good, and my father is gentle and caring to my mother. He stayed close by her side without leaving at all when she got hurt. As long as my mother’s at home, my father won’t let her worry about anything. I really don’t see how my father’s in pain.”

“He’s in pain when I say he’s in pain!” Teagan seemed to have been provoked when she heard what Ashlynn said, and she grabbed the flower on the table and threw it at Ashlynn.

Ashlynn’s back was injured. She has almost recovered, but she still did not dare to make any big movements, so the flowers smacked her directly on her head.

On the other hand, Corentin, who has just entered, happened to witness it.

His gaze instantly was filled with a viciousness that even the space in the room felt twisted.

Teagan looked at the man who entered He was covered all over with a frightening sense of oppressive force that made her feel frightened, and she cowered a little

“What are you doing?” Corentin asked. His voice was as cold as ice

“I came to visit Ashlynn. I was just fooling around with her just now I don’t mean any harm. Ashlynn, have a good rest. I’ll visit you again,” said Teagan, and then she walked off with her head lowered.

She felt like she would not be able to leave the room anymore if she were to delay even a second.

After Teagan left, the door to the ward was closed.

Ashlynn looked at Corentin’s eerily cold face and asked, “You won’t do anything behind my back, right?” When Corentin looked at her, his face was already back to normal. “Am I that kind of person?”

He grabbed the flowers on the bed and directly threw them into the trash can.

Then, he turned around and threw the fruits on the floor.

After he had done all that, Corentin turned around and looked at her. “Who is she?”

Corentin would have found out sooner or later even if Ashlynn did not tell him. “She seems to be my father’s first love or something. She didn’t dare to look for my mother, so she came here to show her dominance to me. I touched a sore spot, so she went berserk.”

“With means like that, she indeed can’t compete with Beth at all.” Corentin sneered and bloody rays flashed across his eyes.

Ashlynn thought, ‘You’re really rude. How can you directly address my mother by her name?”

However, she did not say it out loud when it occurred to her that Corentin was not a normal person. Besides, it was not that important. It was impossible for her and Corentin to be together forever.

They were destined to be a tragedy.

Chapter 1424

“I should say that she’s just an idiot,” Corentin added.

He seemed to dislike foolish women very much.

After he sat down, he said, “You’ll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow.”

“I can already be discharged?” Ashlynn was overjoyed. “I can finally be discharged. I’ve been staying here so long that I’m bored out of my wits!”

When Corentin saw her showing her true expressions, his gaze could not help but look gentle, which was unknown to himself.

“You’re not allowed to get out of bed at home.”

“It’s still better than staying in the hospital,” said Ashlynn.

God knew how unbearable it was for her to stay in the hospital.

“The person who has been accompanying you didn’t even say anything. You’re quite a demanding patient,” said Corentin casually.

“If you’re not happy, I’m not going to force you either…” Ashlynn looked upset.

Corentin sat down on the edge of the bed and stared at her with his amber-colored eyes. “Who said I’m not happy? I’m extremely happy.”

As he said that, he bit her soft lips, and only let go of them after they turned bright red.

Ashlynn’s breathing slowed down and she was trembling.

She lowered her gaze and did not say anything.

She had no clue what Corentin’s actions meant. Was he changing because he had fallen for her, or was he grateful that she had taken a bullet for him?

He probably would not have fallen for her so soon.

She should wait a little longer.

She should only withdraw herself and back away when the timing was right.

“What are you thinking about?” Corentin’s voice came from above, and his hot breath could be felt all over

her

“Nothing… Can I get discharged today instead? There’s no difference between doing it today and tomorrow, anyway,” Ashlynn requested.

As soon as she learned she could get discharged, she desperately wanted to leave immediately.

“Tomorrow” Corentin did not allow her to refute.

Therefore, she waited until the morning of the following day before she was discharged from the hospital. Ashlynn was carried to the car by Corentin. After they returned to the mansion, he carried her to the bed. After she got home, Ashlynn immediately called Beth to tell her that she was discharged. “Why didn’t you call me earlier and let me pick you up? This is such an important matter!” Ashlyn could not help but chuckle when she heard her mother complain.

She felt as long as it had something to do with her, just a tiny little matter would make her mother have a huge reaction.

That did not seem like the mighty Beth at all.

Corentin was already very annoyed that her mother kept going to the hospital every day, to begin with, so to let her plan go smoothly, Ashlynn did not want to get on his nerves for the time being.

Therefore, she could only ignore her mother.

Her mother would still love her no matter how much she ignored her mother, but Corentin was different

That was a monster with a twisted mind.

In the end, after all sorts of comforting, acting all adorable, and also promising her to stay with the Hilton family for a few days after she recovered, she finally placated her mother.

After staying in bed for two days, Ashlynn could not take it anymore, so she got out of bed.

Corentin has to go to work. He has quite a number of matters piled up as he had been staying in the hospital previously, so he basically was not at home during the day.

However, just a few minutes after she got out of bed, Corentin’s voice could be heard coming from behind her as he said, “Who gave you the permission to get out of bed?” That startled Ashlynn, and she turned her head back to look at him in a daze.

“You’re at home?”

“I just came home.”

Ashlynn scanned the entire bedroom as she thought of the videos and photos taken previously. “Did you install cameras in the room?”

“I’ve taken them down.”

Speaking of that, she thought of Corentin blackmailing her with the videos and photos.

The air in the room froze for a moment. Ashlynn simply changed the topic. “The doctor didn’t say I can’t get out of bed, right? As long as it doesn’t hurt, it’s beneficial to my recovery for me to get out of bed and take a walk. I have asked the doctor. Don’t think that I don’t know…”

Corentin stuck his hand on her back. “Does it not hurt at all?”

“Just a tiny little bit. It almost doesn’t matter.”

“Get on the bed.” Corentin tilted his head.

Ashlynn was slightly stunned and she looked at him with her guard up.

Corentin knew what she was thinking when he saw the way she looked. “I’m not such a beast!”

Ashlynn got onto the bed while scolding him in secret, “You’re worse than a beast!’

She laid on the bed on her belly, and her clothes were lifted from the back. There was a piece of gauze stuck next to her spine.

He peeled the gauze off, and a scab formed over the bullet hole.

The color has already darkened.

There was no tearing caused by her getting out of bed and walking around.

“It’s not a big deal, isn’t it?” Ashlynn asked with her face pressed against the pillow.

Just when she was confused as she did not hear Corentin’s reply, a sense of numbness shot through her back like an electric current, which made her body shudder and her breath taken away Corentin’s

thin lips kissed her along her spine from the top. She could even feel him lingering next to her scab.

Ashlynn clenched her teeth and said, “What…are you doing? I haven’t recovered yet…”

“Yet, you got out of bed? This is your punishment.” Corentin continued kissing her.

Ashlynn’s breath became unstable. She needed great restraint to not let any strange sounds leave her throat.

“Are you still going to get out of bed?” Corentin asked while kissing her.

No matter how much Ashlynn held herself back, she could not hold back the flushing on her face.

Chapter 1425

With difficulty, she said, “No…mmm…”

Corentin pulled her clothes down, hovered on top of her, and gently bit her ear. “I’ll give it to you when you’re fully recovered.”

Ashlynn instantly understood what he meant.

He made it seem like she was the one who wanted it.

Did she behave that way?

However, she did not say anything.

That made Corentin insatiably greedy. He touched her tiny waist and said in a deep and husky voice. “Can you feel my passion?”

Ashlynn was speechless. She endured it and closed her eyes. “As long as you’re not in pain.”

Corentin chuckled and kissed the hair around her ear.

He indeed was in pain. However, such pain did not seem to be bad either.

Ashlynn looked at the curtains by the window sill in a daze, and asked, “If…I was not resuscitated this time and died, would you be sad?”

Corentin, who was kissing the side of her face, paused for a moment, and then said, “You won’t die.”

“I’m a human. There’s always a possibility that I might die when facing danger. You didn’t answer my question.” Ashlynn was not satisfied with what he said.

Corentin answered her after falling silent for just a second, “…Yes.”

Ashlynn’s lips curled into a faint smile. She did not say anything. She just let Corentin linger all over her body as he pleased.

*She was fine after getting out of bed for the first time, so the number of times she got out of bed

increased after that

Then, she no longer laid in bed anymore and was almost back to normal.

Ashlynn was still thinking about the matter of her staying over with the Hilton family, and just when she was planning to mention it to Corentin when he came home, Alexis came.

Ashlynn was surprised for a moment when she saw someone coming in while she sat in the living room.

After all, Alexis was no ordinary person.

The fact that she could come in and out as she pleased certainly has something to do with Corentin.

Ashlynn just did not expect that Corentin would make such a move.

“I heard you’re injured, and it’s all for the sake of Corentin Silly girl, there’s no need for you to do that at all. His skin is thick and rough while yours is tender and delicate. How could you take it?” Alexis grabbed Ashlynn’s hand with both her hands as soon as she came in, and was very sorry for her.

This woman in front of Ashlynn has lost her mind, but she has been quite good to Ashlynn every time she met her.

“I’m fine now.” Ashlynn srniled gently, then she ordered the servants to serve tea and biscuits.

Looking at the biscuits that were served, Alexis asked, “You’ve never tried my biscuits before, haven’t you? Let me tell you something. I had attended lessons just for it in the past! Just wait here I’ll make them for you right now”

Upon saying that, she grabbed the servant and went to the kitchen.

“Well There was no way for Ashlynn to stop her

No matter if she truly knew how to do it or not, it was not quite good to let Alexis do it, right?

Ashlynn simply felt worried.

Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, she also went to the kitchen.

She then saw that Alexis had already started making the biscuits.

She asked the servants to help her, and it looked like she truly knew what she was doing.

Alexis turned her head around and looked at Ashlynn, who was standing there in a daze, then smiled lovingly. “Go take a rest. It’ll be done after these are put into the oven.”

Ashlynn walked over. “I’ll give you a hand.”

“No, no. You guys, usher her to the couch to sit. Hurry up.”

Ashlynn was pushed out of the kitchen, so she had no choice but to sit on the couch. From time to time, she would stretch her neck to look in the direction of the kitchen.

She was thinking that it should be fine….

“I didn’t expect that you would be so blessed. You actually married the heir of the Lloyd family.” The voice that came from the entrance of the living room stunned Ashlynn, and she turned her head over in

shock.

All she saw was Teagan entering the door as if it was her own home.

Her words and her eyes were filled with envy for the mansion.

“Who let you in?” Ashlynn looked upset.

“I didn’t see you at the hospital. They said you’ve been discharged. Then, your father told me your address, so I came to visit you. Someone did stop me outside, but I told her I’m your mother, so they let me in.”

Ashlynn felt that this person was truly shameless

How dare she claim to be her mother!

She even threw flowers at her head and threw a tantrum the last time. It was better for her to stay away from such a person.

“Kick her out.” Ashlynn directly ordered the servant next to her.

The servant went up to pull Teagan, but she shook her hand away with great force. “Ashlynn, you’ll upset your father if I get hurt. I’m the person he cares about the most.”

“He cared for you the most, but he married my mother, so who the hell are you then? What an uncultured person.”

“I’m uncultured? If I recall correctly, Corentin is also a man you’ve stolen from another woman, isn’t he?” Teagan ridiculed her.

She seemed to be quite informed.

Ashlynn was wondering if it was her father who had told her that as well.

Why did she feel that it was not quite possible

However, nobody knew the truth about things between Corentin and her

Therefore, no matter what Teagan said, Ashlynn would not be fazed at all.

“It seemed like even if you were living in the slum, the genetics of the blood running in your veins is still quite profound. Just like your mother, you’re also someone who deliberately steals another woman’s man!

Ashlynn looked at her “Teagan, this is not your home, so it’s best for you to watch your mouth. It won’t benefit you if you offend me.”

“Am I scared of you? You won’t even let me speak the truth? You’ve stolen something from others, so your have to face the consequence of thieving!”

Ashlynn said, “I’m going to ask you again. Are you leaving or not?”

I’m here as a guest, and guests should be treated well. You’re truly uncultured.”

Ashlynn did not say anything but simply approached her step by step with a cold expression.

It was just Teagan alone. Ashlynn has more than enough to deal with her.

Ashlynn stood still, and just as she was about to raise her hand, Alexis walked over with her hands. covered with a bit of flour and asked, “What’s going on?”
