Chapter 1609
At first, Corentin was stunned. Then, he said, ’Who have I killed? Ash, you've misunderstood. I've changed now. It's true. Hurry up and come down. The ravioli is getting cold."
“Don't come over! I'll jump if you get any closer!" Ashlynn shouted hysterically.
“Alright, alright. I won't go over!" Corentin did not dare to take another step further. ’Ash, I'm telling the truth. I didn't kill anybody. Come down, and I'll explain to you. It's all a misunderstanding."
“Actually, I've felt it was strange since the beginning. It's just that Anne's reassurance dispelled my suspicion about you." Tears filled Ashlynn's eyes, but they did not stream down her face. She looked at Corentin and said," But I know everything now. I don't have evidence, but you are Salvatore Yeager. At first, I thought you would change for the sake of the child. In the end... In the end, you didn't even spare the child's grandparents. Salvatore, are you even human? Why would a monster like you exist?’
“Ash, come down, and we'll talk, alright? This is too dangerous.'
' Do you want to know how it feels when the person you cared about the most dies? You should experience it." Ashlynn did not give herself a way out. At the moment when her tears streamed down, she jumped off the balcony.
“No!’ Corentin roared as he rushed over.
However, he did not catch the corner of Ashlynn's clothes in time.
He watched as Ashlynn fell to the ground. Blood flowed out from under her body.
None of the maids who stood downstairs caught her.
’I’m going to kill all of you!" Corentin immediately rushed out as if he had gone mad. He kicked those maids away, climbed to Ashlynn's side, then picked her up gently. "Ash, Ash! I'll take you to the hospital now! I won't let anything happen to you!’
Ashlynn's eyes were wide open. Her head was covered in blood. She looked at him with glassy eyes and said, "Salvatore, I don't ever want to meet you again in the future..."
Upon saying that, she breathed her last breath.
"Alright. Don't meet me. Don't die. You're mine. We have to have many, many children. Ash, talk to me...’ Tears streamed down Corentin's face.
However, no matter what he said, Ashlynn did not respond anymore.
"Ashlynn!" Anne saw Ashlynn jumping down from a distance. When she ran over, it was already too late.
Corentin turned to look at her. His face was covered in tears. His eyes were listless, with nothing but hate in them. "Ashlynn's gone. The child is gone... Are you the one who told her?"
’Corentin, if you had known it would come to this, why would you act the way you did back then? Look what you've done! You killed her!" Tears were gushing out of Anne's eyes.
’It's not me. It's you!’ Corentin picked up the gun at the side and pointed it at Anne.
Ashlynn had hidden the gun on her. She was going to use it to shoot herself in case she did not die. She was determined to die.
Before Anne regained her senses, Anthony moved even quicker behind her. He aimed his gun between Corentin's eyes, then bang! A bloody hole appeared between Corentin's eyes, and he collapsed to the ground. His eyes were still wide open.
Anne subconsciously closed her eyes. Tears were streaming down her face.
Anthony hugged her. "It's fine."
"We were too late..." Anne cried.
She never would have expected Ashlynn would feel so hopeless that she jumped with the child in her belly. Both she and her baby died.
Anthony looked at Ashlynn, who was lying in the pool of blood. The blood that was still flowing out of her body was hers and her child's.
Anthony's hands were shaking as he hugged Anne tightly. He was not afraid of how bloody the scene looked. Instead, it was because the person he loved was still around. He, too, had almost lost her.
In the future, he would love and protect her carefully for the rest of his life.
Corentin and Ashlynn's funerals were arranged. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Of course, Corentin's funeral was handled by the Lloyd family, and Jeremy brought Ashlynn's ashes home.
Anne and Anthony went to the countryside to stay away from the children. That was because the toxic fluid from Anne's body still infected Anthony in the end. Both of them lived isolated from the world in the countryside, and they were very happy.
Half a month later, Ivan sent the cure that he found to them.
Anthony, who was hugging and kissing Anne while fishing, looked unhappy.
“Can't you first give us a call?"
“Uhm. I got overexcited,' Ivan thought.
Anthony waved and chased the annoying Ivan away. Then, he continued kissing Anne. When he could no longer hold it back anymore, he carried her into the luxurious caravan at the side.
"Hmm? Shouldn't we first take the cure?’ Anne was panting.
"There's something more urgent than taking the cure now...1 The end.
