My extraordinary wife novel (Ashlyn and Lucas) novel Chapter 583

Chapter 583

Horace was so frightened that he grabbed his head and bawled, “What are you doing? Ashlyn, don’t you dare come any closer! This place is full of prison guards. They’ll come after you if you try to hurt me in any way!”

He felt a piercing pain on his scalp. He looked up to see that Ashlyn had wrenched a few strands of hair from his head.

Horace’s face grew even paler. “Why are you doing that to my hair? Who do you think you are to pull my hair like that?”

If this little wretch had already discovered the truth about what had happened all those years ago... if she actually knew that she was...

The more Horace thought about it, the more suspicious he became.

Who had instigated Ashlyn to investigate this? And why had she suddenly gained a grandfather on her maternal side?

Horace couldn

’t help but feel a little panicked.

However, now that he was locked up in jail, there was nothing he could do about it.

“Dad, no matter how you treat me, I’ll always regard you as my father. Only you know how biased you’ve been towards Penelope all these years. Mary has cursed and beat me so many times, but you’ve never uttered a word to stop her. Yet, here I was, wondering why you’ve never loved me.” Ashlyn picked up her handbag and drew a deep breath. “The paternity test results will tell me exactly why.”

Judging by Horace’s reaction, Ashlyn could already deduce the truth behind their relationship.

However, what she really wanted was some sort of evidence that would prove their non-paternity.

With that in mind, her heart went cold as ice.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Horace couldn’t help but blurt out, “Why haven’t your stepmother and Penelope dropped by to visit me at all?”

Ashlyn was dumbfounded. He was rotting miserably in jail, but all he could still think about were those two women.

She turned around and gazed at Horace with contempt. Pausing deliberately between every word, she said, “You probably don’t know this, but the two of them have left the country. Nobody knows where they are.”

Ashlyn couldn’t care less about what those two vile women were up to. Thus, she refused to waste her time and energy searching for answers.

“What? Have they abandoned me?” Horace’s eyes widened in disbelief and despair. “How could that be?”

Without another glance at her father, Ashlyn turned and left immediately.

Horace had been in jail for quite some time, but he still regarded her with the same amount of indifference. It was obvious that he didn’t see her as his daughter at all.

With that, Ashlyn’s heart dropped with a thud, and she felt her chest tightened as disappointment overwhelmed her.

After leaving the prison, Ashlyn immediately sent samples of Horace’s hair and her own to be tested by the Paternity Testing Center at First Hospital.
