Chapter 846 Neither of Us Is Wrong Elias was momentarily stunned.
Then, it hit him. That was why Ashley had been treating him that way since she woke up. It turns out she's been harboring resentment all this time, bitter that he couldn't save her and their child back then.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtElias stumbled back a few steps after being pushed away by Ashley. However, he instantly snapped back to his senses, grabbing her hand as she pushed him and pulling her into his arms.
"Ash," he said.
This time, Ashley wasn't just resisting in a playful, half-hearted way, her rejection cfrom deep within.
She gripped Elias's arm tightly, her nails digging into his flesh.
She said through her gritted teeth, "Let go of me!" Beathan ran over and shouted sternly, "Elias, let go of Ashley!" He initially wanted to help Ashley cto her senses, but two bodyguards suddenly appeared, blocking his way.
He assumed that the bodyguards were Elias's men and was furious but helpless. This was a courthouse. Who would dare make a scene? The truth was that those bodyguards belonged to Emelie. She didn't trust Ashley to handle her first trial on her own, so she'd cto the courthouse as well.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat Emelie didn't expect was that William had also shown up.
At that moment, the two of them stood at the corner of the hallway, staring each other down. William put a finger to his lips, mouthing, "Shh." If the situation were different, Emelie would have asked him why he had so much free time. Didn't he have a company to run? Why did he keep following her around? If he was that free, he should visit a doctor instead.
Elias ignored everyone around him, holding Ashley tightly despite the pain. "Ash, just listen tofor a second... You won't be able to break free of my grip, so hearout. If you still wantto leave afterward, I'll go. I won't bother you again." Ashley's eyes were bloodshot, and she continued to struggle, but Elias held her firmly and spoke quickly, "What happened three years ago wasn't my fault." He enunciated each word clearly. "At the time, I was in the gallery. There were several rows of seats and other people in front of me.
"When the incident occurred, everyone panicked and instinctively tried to flee. My path was blocked. I had to navigate through the seats, push through the chaotic crowd, and then climb over the barrier in front of the gallery just to reach you." Beathan was stunned as he heard that, then grew angry. "Elias, do you even realize what Ashley is going through right now? And you're still trying to shift the blame! You're not fit to be her husband!" Elias didn't spare him a glance, and continued to speak to Ashley. "But it all happened so fast-in just a few seconds. Even the court officers didn't have tto stop it, so how could I have done it? In that situation, unless I could teleport, there was no way I could've reached you in time." Ashley's breathing was heavy, but her struggle started to weaken. She gritted her teeth.
Elias reemphasized his point. "It wasn't my fault. What happened wasn't my fault.
"And it wasn't your fault either." Having defended himself, he turned to reassure Ashley.
"You're a lawyer. Your duty is to do everything that you can to protect your client's interests. That's your
