’It's also possible that they had a small fight, so Anthony couldn't wait to run over and soothe her anger," said Corentin.
Ashlynn nodded and believed in Corentin's words. After all, nothing else happened.
’I'm done washing up. You go ahead and wash up. I'm going to give my mother a call and tell her that Anne is also going to attend her birthday party." Ashlynn turned around and left the bathroom.
She picked up the phone on the nightstand and dialed Beth's number.
Corentin did not stop her. He simply looked at Ashlynn's back with a darkened gaze.
Nobody answered the call after it rang for a few seconds.
Just when Ashlynn found it strange, the call got connected. "Mom, are you busy? Why are you only picking up the phone now?"
"It's two in the morning here at my end."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
’Your father and I are traveling abroad."
"Traveling? So sudden? Your birthday is in a few days!" Ashlynn was extremely surprised.
"We...want to spend some time with just the two of us, so I'm not going to celebrate my birthday anymore."
Ashlynn laughed. It turned out that was what they wanted.
She could understand.
"Alright. Have fun with Dad then."
Ashlynn felt sorry that her mother was woken up by her call, so she hung up very quickly as she wanted to let her mother go back to bed.
"What did she say?" Corentin appeared behind her very naturally.
’The birthday party is off. My parents have gone traveling abroad. They won't be coming back anytime soon." Ashlynn did not feel down at all.
’This is quite good. Jeremy told me my father didn't marry my mother out of his own will. Rather, it was my grandpa who matched them up. He didn't have any feelings for her. My mother, on the other hand, married my father for love. However, she has a strong personality. She knew my father had a first love, yet she did not back down. She just pretended like she didn't care, but she was actually suffering deep within. Perhaps both of them are traveling abroad this time to share their feelings with each other!"
Outsiders have always said her mother was too aggressive, and she even snatched away her father's position as the heir.
However, in her eyes, her father did not care about all that at all. He was truly protecting his wife.
When his wife got hurt, he would be extremely anxious.
Ashlynn only noticed that after she observed him.
Perhaps even her mother, herself, would not notice it. After all, those involved in the matter were easily blinded to the truth.
"So let's not disturb them, or we might ruin it for them," said Corentin.
"Mm-hmm. I can only give my mother the present I've prepared for her when she comes back then," said Ashlynn.
Corentin did not respond to that.
All of these were arranged by him.
How could it possibly be the late Beth on the other end of the call? He just got a voice actress that had a similar voice to Beth impersonating her.
No matter what, he could not let Ashlynn hurt the child in her belly because of all this mess.
Nobody could!
Since the birthday party could no longer go on, Ashlynn had to tell Anne so she would not wait for nothing.
She told her about it over breakfast.
Anne quickly glanced at Corentin before she said, "That's good too." After giving it some thought, she said, "We're returning to Luton before noon."
"Why so soon?" asked Ashlynn.
"It's fine. I'll come again next time. After all, I've not seen the children for a very long time, so I miss them a little," said Anne.
"I won't make you stay then. The triplets must miss their mama very much," Ashlynn said with a smile.
Anne has to leave. Otherwise, she could not face Ashlynn honestly at all if she continued to stay.
As Ashlynn's best friend, she was actually hiding such a thing from her.
She felt extremely guilty about it.
Would Ashlynn blame her for hiding it in the future?NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
