Chapter 1377
Back when Ashlynn had not returned to the family, Meredith had brought joy to the Hiltons, so both Beth and Marshall knew better than to neglect Meredith simply because of Ashlynn; however, they were only human and could not help but favor their own daughter.
Ashlynn left after dinner, and Jeremy offered her a ride.
Beth and Marshall stood outside the door to see them off reluctantly, and Meredith saw every detail in their expressions.
Meredith stayed the night with the Hiltons, and Aunt Cher brought her a glass of warm milk. “This will help you sleep.”
Meredith was not at all in the mood and asked, “Don’t you think it’s weird for Uncle Marshall and Aunt Beth to treat Ashlynn with such care? You mentioned that Ashlynn comes here often, but why?”

Seeing how anxious Meredith seemed, Aunt Cher suggested, “Ms. Meredith, Mrs. Hilton isn’t your actual mother, and your unstable bond with her can’t guarantee you anything…”
Meredith turned to look at her. “What do you mean?”
“Think of what happened during dinner After what Mr. Jeremy said, Mr. and Mrs. Hilton were clearly on Ashlynn’s side and did not even try to defend you. They will soon want to give Ashlynn everything, so you need to start fighting for what you want,” Aunt Cher reminded her.
Meredith instantly understood what she meant.
She knew just how powerful Beth was in the Hilton Family, so no one would ever object to whatever she
