Chapter 1181

“Ashlynn is just a shameless woman who clings onto Corentin! Don't worry, Auntie, I can handle

her,” Meredith said proudly. She would never let a woman from the slum overpower her. “How did

you find out about this, though?”

Seeing how Meredith seemed to be in the dark, Beth said, “Ashlynn is pregnant.”

"What?!" Meredith paled and screamed, her perfect mask of composure cracking.

“I heard this from Anthony Marwood's wife on my way out of the bathroom. I thought that you

might be unaware and came to tell you,” Beth said as she studied the enraged look on Meredith's

face.

“I'm going to kill that b*tch! That shameless wh*re! She’s nothing but trash and she dares to try and

take my man from me. I'm asking Corentin about this,..”

"Hang on.” Beth stopped her.

"Auntie, I can't just turn a blind eye to this!”

“So what? If you go out there and cause a scene, you are just going to embarrass yourself. What you

need to do now is be patient and plan your move.” Beth had been helping with the family business

and was more composed than Meredith.

"What plan? If Ashlynn gives birth to that kid, that's the biggest humiliation to me!"

“Just make sure she doesn't give birth to it, then.” Beth narrowed her eyes viciously.

Meredith fell back onto the couch and gritted her teeth.

Beth sat down next to her and asked, “where is this Ashlynn? In Corentin’s mansion?”

"Yeah..."

“I will find a way.” Beth took Meredith's hands caringly. “I will settle this for you behind Corentin’s

back, so no one will know.”

“Auntie...” Meredith whined.

Beth held her close. “You grew up under my wings and I'll definitely help you. No one can stop you

from being happy. Once you get out of here, pretend like nothing has happened, okay?”

After exiting the powder room, Meredith regained her composure as though nothing had

happened, but was still furious when she spotted Anne eating with the triplets.

In her eyes, Anne and Ashlynn were on the same side and she even suspected that not only did

Anne know about Ashlynn’s pregnancy, Anne might be the one who taught Ashlynn to get

pregnant. After all, that was how Anne managed to enslave Anthony with her triplets.

Meredith still knew that she was far more superior than Ashlynn, or Corentin would not have chosen

to get engaged with her. Anyone could do the math and see which option was more beneficial to

them.

The party ended at night, and Anne and Anthony left with the triplets by helicopter.

Once all the seniors of both families left, Meredith went into Corentin’s Bently. Inside the car, she

leaned her head against Corentin’s shoulder and muttered, “Corentin, I feel dizzy even though I

didn't drink that much. I don't think it's because of the alcohol, but because I'm too happy.”

“Send Meredith home first,” Corentin commanded the driver.

Meredith instantly sobered and looked up. “What do you mean, Corentin? I thought we were going

back to your mansion together?”

“I still have things to do at work. I can't go back.” Corentin glanced at the time on his watch.

“I still want to stay the night at your mansion.”

"Sure."

“He wants to go back to spend time alone with Ashlynn?” She thought. “Today's the day we got

engaged. I won't allow that!"

Once they arrived at the mansion, Corentin did not even get out of the car and left straightaway,

leaving Meredith stranded with a dark expression.

Since Corentin had left, she decided to look for Ashlynn, wondering how Ashlynn would react to the

news of their engagement.
