Torn Between Love and Hate novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72 You Killed Her

Without any hesitation, Ashton immediately continued to bend down, looking for ashes from the trash can.

It didn’t take long for him to realize something. He said with a depressed face, “I can’t find it. If the ashes are thrown in the trash can,

how can I find it?”

He had just rummaged through the trash can, and the ashes had already been sca tt ered in the trash can and stuck to the pile of trash,

so how could he find it?

Deborah smiled lightly. “The ashes were lost a long time ago. Did you just realize it?”

Ashton’s face was trembling and turned pale. He approached Deborah suddenly and asked unwillingly, “That’s my daughter. Why did you throw her ashes?”

Deborah looked at the lun atic man in front of her. “What are you talking about? Didn’t you call her bas ta rd all the time?”

Ashton was speechless. The palms of his hands were tightly clenched into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands stood out.

The word bas ta rd that he had said casually in the past had now become a thorn, piercing hard into his heart.

He felt that his whole heart was curled up together, and the pain was so severe that he tasted blood.

He lost his parents and finally had another relative by blood, his biological daughter.

That child was well-behaved and sensible. She would stick to him, calling him daddy timidly and fearfully.

But she was dead, and Ashton looked at the long corridor in a daze, which seemed to be empty.

After looking for a while, he seemed to see Alyssa again

Desperation spread, and then he suddenly remembered one more thing.

“Her lucky charm. Where is that burned out lucky charm?”

Those were the relics of the deceased. According to the custom of the funeral parlor, things like this would not be cremated together with the body and would be kept as a memory for the family members.

Jeff immediately called the funeral parlor, and there was a hesitant response. “The lucky charm and the body were burnt to ashes

together.”

It had already been burned, and there was nothing else to do. After all, Ashton didn’t explain that he wanted to keep something at the

beginning

Jeff hung up the phone, and he could only bite the bullet and tell Ashton the truth

Ashton couldn’t accept such a result. “I don’t believe it. I didn’t see the ashes, nor did I see the lucky charm. There must be something wrong with it. The person who died may not be my daughter.”

Impossible! He finally understood everything. His daughter was still by his side, and together with Deborah, the three of them would live a good life in the future.

He looked at Jeff with a hint of hope. “Go look under that cliff and send out a missing person notice with a big reward. My daughter

is still alive. She must be alive and well.”

His voice was in a trance. “By the way, go to the funeral parlor to see if there is any hair or other body tissues left from the body. I want to test the DNA. That body must not belong to my daughter.”

Jeff said helplessly. “Mr. Mullen, Alyssa has indeed fallen off the cliff. You saw it with your own eyes that day. It has been more than a month since the day of the incident. It is impossible to find anything under the cliff.

“As for the funeral parlor, there are so many bodies that are transported and cremated every day.

“How could they still find the remaining hair of the body cremated more than a month ago and even get identified?”

Ashton was imitable and interrupted him suddenly, “I ask you to do it, so you just do it!”

He frantically stared at Deborah again. “My daughter is not dead, right? Why haven’t you been so sad recently? Why don’t you act up recently? You must know my daughter is still alive, right?”

He suddenly stretched out his hand, trying to check Deborah’s pockets to see if he could find anything.

Just as he stretched out his hand, he got a sudden slap on the face.

Ashton was stunned for a moment, seeing Deborah’s disgusted eyes. “Ashton, is it that difficult to admit that you were wrong, and you can’t make up for it?”

Ashton finally stood still without making a sound.
