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.
