Chapter 1340 Offending the Tanners
“What… What are you talking about?”
Ashton’s chest heaved with anger. I thought she’s my mother? How could she say things like that?
When did I sleep with Emmanuel?
“I wish I was just making this up! But I saw it with my own eyes!”

Althea was filled with emotion, her face flushing red as she scolded Ashton harshly, “I didn’t say anything when you slept with Maxwell before. After all, he is from the Zelinsky family, and your relationship with him benefited the Summerton family! But now, look at what you’ve become! When did your father and I ever teach you to be like this? You’re becoming more and more outrageous-”
“Shut up! Just shut up!” Ashton couldn’t bear it any longer and turned around, storming out of the house.
Why do I have a mother who would slander her daughter like that?
I’ve never slept with Maxwell, let alone Emmanuel!
I’m still a virgin!
And Mom’s blatant double standards are making me sick!
“Ash?”
Zaiden had just returned from a meeting at the company when he heard that Ashton had come back. He was in high spirits and wanted to talk to her, but he didn’t expect to see Ashton about to leave the house in anger.
“What’s going on? Ash, you just got home. Are you leaving again?”
No matter how Zaiden asked, Ashton remained silent, determined to storm out of the house.
“Stop right there!”
Finally, Zaiden couldn’t hold back his anger and shouted, stopping the stubborn Ashton.
Ashton finally stopped in her tracks, but she still didn’t want to stay at home. She turned her back to Zaiden and said loudly, “Dad, I hope you can persuade Mom! Children grow up, and their lives should be their own. Tell her not to interfere too much, let alone do anything despicable like breaking up a couple!”
After saying that, regardless of how Zaiden called out to her, she just left home.
“Sigh…”
Zaiden was both angry and helpless. It was all his fault for being too busy managing the Summerton family business since childhood, not having time to discipline the children, and letting them be free-spirited. Now that the children had grown up, they were becoming more and more disobedient, and he was merely reaping what he sowed!
Out of wits, he went back to his room and asked Althea what had happened.
Althea repeated what she had seen, unable to contain her emotions. “Zaiden, do you think I’m wrong as a mother? Am I not doing this for their own good? For the good of the Summerton family?”
Zaiden thought that when Ashton said, “breaking up a couple,” she meant breaking up her and Emmanuel, so he

Zaiden thought that when Ashton said, “breaking up a couple,” she meant breaking up her and Emmanuel, so he was on the same side as Althea.
I will never allow my daughter to become someone’s mistress!
Therefore, he gently patted Althea’s shoulder to comfort her. “Alright now, teaching our children will take time. We didn’t do a good job before, so now we have to put in more effort!”
Althea was still very dissatisfied and gritted her teeth. “Our children have become like this because of the Lowe siblings. The Quillen family is backing them, right? Since that’s the case, as long as the Quillen family is in Onza, I won’t let them live a single day in peace. Only then can I find some peace of mind!”
