Chapter 290
Manuel couldn’t help but ask, “Did Ashley do something reckless after her scheme was exposed?”
Quinton’s heart skipped a beat. “No! Hurry! Frederick, get the spare key! Let’s knock the door down together!”
“O–Okay” Frederick quickly went downstairs to ask for the housekeeper’s spare key. Meanwhile, Joseph and others kept bumping against the door with their bodies.
But the custom door, specially designed by the Harvey family, wasn’t easy to break from the outside. Joseph’s arm throbbed with pain, yet the door didn’t budge an inch. It wasn’t until Frederick found the butler and used the spare key that they finally got it open.
“Ashley!” Joseph and the others called out
Ashley Quinton called out.
There was no sight of Ashley in the room.
There is the sound of water! She’s in the bathroom!” Frederick said.
Everyone rushed in to find Ashley with one hand submerged in the bathtub. The water was stained red, and she was drenched from head to toe. Her eyes were tightly shut, her face ghostly pale, and her hair a tangled mess. She exhibited clear signs of severe blood loss.
“Ah! Ms. Harvey, this is. The butler was so stunned by the scene that he was left speechless. Quinton quickly lifted Ashley out of the water and shouted, “Get her to the hospital now! We’re running out of time!”
