Torn Between Love and Hate novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29 Ms. Shepherd Doesn’t Breathe 

Deborah was not afraid as she looked straight at Ashton. It means what you think it means.” 

Ashton grabbed her by the neck “How could you have the guts to hurt Helen and scold her?” 

Deborah chuckled, “I didn’t scold her I was talking about feeding the dog, not feeding her. Ashton, you have a great imagination.” Ashton was speechless for a moment. He pushed Deborah away and turned to ask Andrew, “How should we deal with it?” 

Andrew did not know what to do. Now that the tooth was in Helen’s stomach, he could not take it out. 

Deborah looked at them like a joke and said, “It’s very simple. Just cut open Helen’s stomach and take out the tooth.” 

Ashton looked at her angrily and said harshly, “Deborah, you better shut up. I will settle the score with you. 

“Sir, if the tooth is really in Ms. Bauer’s stomach, there is no way to transplant it back,” Andrew said in fear. 

soon!” 

He could only consider planting a tooth. But they had to wait for three to six months after the tooth fell off before Helen could take an X-ray picture to check the recovery of the jawbone. Only then would she get a new tooth. 

In other words, in at least three to six months, Helen would have to live with a missing front tooth, 

Ashton said coldly. “Are there other ways out?” 

Andrew looked helpless. “Sir, if we can’t find the tooth, this is the most suitable way.” 

Ashton grabbed Deborah and walked outside, shouting angrily, “Dr. Wilson, do your best. 

“Nina, arrange for more people to search around Flora Villa for the tooth. Don’t miss any corner! 

Ashton then dragged Deborah to the living room, threw her to the ground, and called a few bodyguards, “Beat her until she loses a 

front tooth!” 

After he finished speaking, he went upstairs without looking back. 

Before Deborah could get up, a few bodyguards surrounded her, punching and kicking her. 

As soon as Ashton went upstairs, he called Jeff to the study. 

Ashton was not in a good mood and got straight to the point. “Jeff, you have been in the Mullen family for almost thirty years, and you should know my bottom line here.” 

Jeff looked a little evasive. “Sir, I don’t quite understand what you are saying.” 

Ashton said in a deep voice, “Last time, you told me that Helen secretly went to Deborah’s room in the basement and heard Helen 

cursing Alyssa 

“But when I rushed over, I only saw Deborah in the room. I didn’t see Helen and Alyssa Jeff, you are framing Helen.” 

Jeff was neither humble nor pushy “Sir, what I said was true. 

“I did see Ms. Bauer enter Ms. Shepherd’s room in the basement. I also heard Alyssa’s crying and Ms. Bauer scolding her. If you don’t 

believe me, I am willing to accept your punishment.” 

Ashton sneered, “I only believe what I saw with my own eyes. Let’s not talk about that matter first. I let you guard outside the basement today. 

“Why did you not go in to stop them or tell me in time after Helen was beaten by Deborah? 

Jell’s explanation was a little weak. “I just happened to leave to pick up a call. When I returned to the room, I saw you go in.” 

Ashton stopped and did not say anything else. “I will not let anyone who is prejudiced against Helen stay here. But I will not dismiss 

you. Pack your things and go to the old house to look after Grandpa.” 

Jeff nodded and left without further explanation. 

When he reached the door, Jeff stopped and said, “Sir, you and Ms. Shepherd have been married for many years. You should know what kind of person she is. 

“I don’t think Ms. Shepherd is as vicious as you think. Just like Ms. Bauer, she may not be as kind as you think… 

Ashton was furious “That’s enough. You can go now. You don’t have to come to Flora Villa again.” 

Jeff did not say anything more and turned to leave. 

Ashton sat down at his desk and lit a cigarette in silence. 

He did not want to think about it, but Jeff’s words lingered in his mind, 

If Helen was not as kind as he thought she was, then in this world, who would still be kind and truly good to him? 

Ashton would always believe that Helen was really good to him and did not have any bad intentions. 

She had saved him and let him feel the only warmth, which was something he would never forget, and which was enough for him to believe in her for the rest of his life. 

Ashton still remembered that day. In the cold water, he was hypoglycemic and slowly sank into the water. 

Helen did not know how to swim, but she jumped into the water to save him without hesitation. She gave him a piece of candy and clung to a piece of driftwood on the surface of the water. 

She fought for a few minutes. When the adults came to rescue them, Helen chose to let Ashton be saved first. 

Ashton could hardly open his eyes, but he smelled her scent. It was familiar. 

After he was rescued to the shore and woke up, he saw Helen, who was drenched and looking at him in panic. 

Ashton slowly pulled back his thoughts. He stared at his fingers and said softly. “Anyone can be a bad person, but not her.” 

Helen was still lying on the bed, and Ashton was not in the mood to sit there any longer. He got up and left the study. 

When he was going to Helen’s bedroom, he glanced downstairs, but he did not hear Deborah’s painful voice, nor did he hear the sound of the bodyguards hitting her. It was very quiet downstairs
