Chapter 1607
Corentin hugged Ashlynn. "I heard that Tommy's dead, so your parents' murders have been avenged. Now, they can only rest in peace. Calm down."
Ashlynn collapsed in his arms as she cried. Then, she started to feel waves of throbbing pain in her belly, and her face turned pale.
Corentin noticed something was not right with her, so he hurriedly roared at the driver, "Go to the hospital now!"
"Hurry up!" Jeremy urged. He held Ashlynn's hand and realized that it was freezing. "Ashlynn, you have to be alright. You still have me! Hang in there, Ashlynn!"
Ashlynn looked at him with tears in her eyes. She was extremely saddened. She could not understand why things would end up like that. Did she not deserve to have parents?
When Ashlynn woke up, she was already at the hospital.
She subconsciously touched her belly, but Corentin grabbed her hand." You're showing signs of miscarriage, so you need to recuperate."
Ashlynn scanned around the room and asked, "Where's Jeremy?"
"He's outside. He's very worried about you, so being in here makes him feel restless."
Ashlynn retracted her hand. "You and Jeremy have gone overboard. How can you hide such a big thing from me and not tell me about it? Corentin, the voice of the person who called me was faked, right? It was your idea, wasn't it? You're willing to do anything for the child, aren't you?"
"Ash, things have already happened. Even if I told you, there's nothing you can do to save it anymore. You have our child and me right now. Jeremy only has you, his sister. If anything happens to you, he'll be even more miserable."
Ashlynn said nothing. Tears were welling in her eyes.
Of course, she knew Jeremy would be miserable. Jeremy had gotten so much thinner at that time. Ashlynn thought it was because he was swamped at work. She just found out that it was because their parents had passed away. He endured everything by himself.
"Don't cry. The doctor said you need to keep calm."
Ashlynn could do that at all. Keep calm? How could she keep calm at that moment? How could she calm down?
However, she could only force herself to nod.
Jeremy came in and saw that Ashlynn was awake, so he asked, “How are you feeling? Do you feel any discomfort in your belly?"
Ashlynn could not bear to see him looking worried. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine."
"Take a good rest. You matter the most now," said Jeremy.

Corentin kept Ashlynn accompanied the entire time she stayed at the hospital.
In the morning, when Jeremy brought them breakfast, she said, "Jeremy, you should take turns keeping watch with Corentin. It'll be too tiring for him to stay here every day."
Corentin looked at her gently. "Why would it be tiring for me to keep you accompanied? I'm fine as long as you're fine."
"Don't make me worried, alright?" Ashlynn looked blue.
Corentin was afraid her mood would be affected. "Alright. I'll go home during the day, and then I'll come again at night."
In the morning, after Corentin left, Ashlynn was accompanied by Jeremy.
Ashlynn said, "Tell me the entire thing of how Dad and Mom died."
"Don't worry about these. We..."
"Jeremy, I've calmed down now. If you don't tell me, I'll keep thinking about it."
"Alright. I'll tell you." Jeremy then told her how Beth was tricked into going to the mountains after receiving a call from Tommy and that she had
called Corentin. He also told her that when Ashlynn got there, their parents were already dead.
"When you guys got there, was Corentin the only one by Dad's and Mom's side?" Ashlynn asked.
"Yes. He didn't manage to save them in time," said Jeremy.
Ashlynn's downcast gaze had no discernible emotions, but her hands that were placed by her sides were gripping the sheets tightly.
