Chapter 586

“Grandma, can I ask you something?” Ashlyn approached Susan with a document in her hand.

“Don’t be a stranger dear. What’s wrong? What do you want to know?” Susan responded without looking up as she

was busy peeling garlic.

Ashlyn stared at her intently and inquired, “Are you aware that I’m not my father’s biological daughter?”

Susan dropped the garlic in her hands as panic flashed across her eyes. She quickly picked up the peeled garlic and

asked, “Ashlyn, what are you babbling about? How can you not be your father’s daughter?”

“Grandma, this is the result of the paternity test between my father and I. It shows that we are not related.” Ashlyn

held up the document pouch.

Her heart sank as she stared at Susan.

Nothing was more painful in this world than being lied to by your loved ones.

“Grandma, how did my mom die? How long do you want to keep that from me?”

“Your mom was killed in a car accident.” Susan didn’t expect Ashlyn to do a paternity test.

So what if you know you’re not Horace’s biological daughter? Your mom has been dead for so many years, so it’s

not like you can ask her anything.

“Ever since I was young, I have always treated you with respect. I shared everything I have with you. I have

deposited roughly fifty million into your bank account already ever since I joined the workforce. Also, do you know

who beat up the village bully that gave you trouble? It was me! Grandma! Have you forgotten how we only had

each other while we were living in the village?”

When Susan heard Ashlyn’s complaints, she looked away awkwardly.

“I didn’t forget, Ashlyn. My love for you is real. It’s just that, I really don’t know much about the matters related to

your mom. Even though you’re not a biological member of the Berry family, I still love you all the same. However...

you will have to decide whether you still want to acknowledge me as your Grandma. I’m fine with whatever your

decision is.”

Susan felt miserable. “I really don’t know how did our family end up like this. Your dad is in prison, while Mary and

her daughter ran away. Meanwhile, you’re are not Horace’s biological daughter. Oh! What did I do to deserve this?”

Just as she spoke, she broke down in tears.

“No matter what, the Berry family has taken care of you for so many years. It’s heartbreaking enough that you are

not appreciative of my effort, but now here you are questioning me? Your dad is in prison and yet you don’t care

about him. I’m just an old lady, what more do you want from me? Do you still have a conscience? After spending so

many years bringing you up, have you repaid me? Now that I’m alone, who can I blame? You, of course! I shouldn’t

have taken you in. I should have let you die together with your mom and your sister instead.”

Ashlyn was taken aback. Her heart ached as she felt as if she was looking at a stranger.

How did the person I know best and am closest to feel so distant?

Why did matters turn out this way?

She felt an overwhelming pain that numbed her heart. How can Grandma say something so harsh? Is my

relationship with Grandma so weak that it can’t overcome the fact that we are not related by blood?

She didn’t know how she walked out of the Berry Residence. As she wandered along the road aimlessly, it began to

drizzle. The raindrops that fell onto her body felt cold.

At Whitland Villa.

Lucas was taking a bath.

When Claire heard the sound of the shower from the bathroom, she tiptoed into the bedroom and checked Lucas’

phone on the bedside table.

After trying a few combinations, she still couldn’t unlock it.

However, she wasn’t at wit’s end just yet. With a devious smile, she quickly made short work of the phone and

unlocked it easily.

As a member of the research team at Nolan Group’s lab, unlocking a phone screen was considered an easy task.

She quickly searched for the phone number tagged under “Honey” and saved it down.

After that, she put his phone back to where she found it.

When everything was completed, she quietly left the room.
