Blake stood in front of Jennifer, looking at Ashley just as fiercely: “Ashley, I don’t know why you hate my wife so much. After Leong was done with you, to a massage parlor. My wife paid to get you out and gave you money. Now you’re saying that my wife ruined your life?”
he sent you
Mom, Dad, and I were shocked.
No wonder we couldn’t find Ashley. It turned out she had been sent to a massage parlor.
I had seen Leong on the news before. He was involved in organized crime and under police surveillance.
That’s how Ashley got the bomb.
When Ashley heard Blake, she screamed: “That’s not true! That’s not how it is! It’s all written in novels. As long as I stayed in the massage would come save me! This woman ruined me!”
parlor
for a
while, you
The guests around us were speechless.
Even I was angry.
She was still thinking about novels?
Blake frowned: “No, even if you stayed in the massage parlor for eight or ten years, I wouldn’t fall in love with you. I’ve always loved Jennifer. She’s the one I’ll face everything with.”
Ashley yelled: “That’s not right! You’re wrong! Jennifer is just prettier and smarter than me. If I were rich, I could do that!”
Blake chuckled: “Some things are just in your bones. When the Jennifer family had a financial crisis, her uncle ran off with the company’s money. Jennifer held the family up on her own. You could never be that brave!”
Ashley’s eyes filled with tears: “How could that be? I should be the Sterling family’s daughter–in–law. She got rid of your baby for the sake of her career. How could someone who would do that be in that position?”
She looked at Blake with tears in her eyes: “Shouldn’t the Sterling family’s daughter–in–law be a weak woman who needs protection?”
Jennifer stopped Blake from arguing and waved away the bodyguards around her, her voice still calm: “Ashley, I want to clarify something. Before my child is born, it‘ s a part of my body. I have the right to decide whether to keep it or not. Whether I got rid of the child or not is none of your business.”
Looking at Ashley’s face turn purple, Jennifer continued: “Second, I don’t know if you’ve read too many romance novels, but you keep thinking family’s daughter–in–law. But I hope you can see clearly that I’m the one standing next to Blake. I’m his legally married wife.”
I could see Ashley’s face twisting.
But she tried to remain calm: “So what? How can a childhood friend beat a destiny? Your relationship isn’t as strong as you think, Blake is mine!”
t you’re the Sterling
She looked at old Mr. Sterling and stabbed the knife at his throat: “It’s all your fault, you old man! If you hadn’t arranged this marriage for Blake, he wouldn’t have married that Jennifer! You ruined my life!”
Jennifer picked up a flower pot and threw it at Ashley.

Jennifer picked up a flower pot and threw it at Ashley.
Ashley screamed and covered her head.
The knife fell to the ground. Surprised, I turned to look at Jennifer.
She’s like a female version of a superhero.
I thought to myself, but then I saw Ashley reaching into her pocket.
“Stop her!”
Before I could finish, there were explosions.
The bodyguards held Ashley to the ground, her bloodshot eyes looking at the explosions and the fire, filled with hatred.
As I looked into her eyes, Ashley gave me a cold smile.
Her dry lips moved: “Ashley, I told you, I’m the romance novel heroine.”
