Chapter 30
Sam was so busy having fun with Tanya that he didn’t contact Ashley over the weekend. On Monday, Ashley went to Eternal. Near the end of the workday, Cindy called, inviting her to dinner.
After dinner, Ashley went to the restroom and saw Zark. She ignored him.
When Ashley got out of the restroom, she saw Zark waiting at the same place. He asked, “Having dinner here?” It seemed he was waiting for her.
Yes. She said coldly, “You think I’m following you again?”
He paused. That’s not what I meant.”
She didn’t know or care what he meant. She just left and he didn’t stop her.

Cindy wanted to buy a birthday gift for her mother. Ashley accompanied her to a jewelry store. Cindy had her eye on a jade necklace. While she was talking to the store owner, someone at the entrance said, “Hello, I’m here to collect my jewelry.”
Ashley paused.
“Mr. Mond!” The owner greeted him, apologizing to Ashley and Cindy before approaching him.”Mr. Mond, your custom jewelry is ready.”
“Ashley?” Mark approached Ashley.”Are you here to order jewelry?”
Ashley glanced at him but didn’t speak.
Seeing her coldness, Mark said sadly, “Ashley…”
Ashley looked away, asking Cindy,”Are you gonna buy this necklace?”
Cindy hadn’t met Mark. She whispered to Ashley, “Who’s that?”
Ashley didn’t answer. Mark said, “Ashley, are you doing okay?”
Ashley looked at him coldly. “What do you want to say?”
“I…” Mark said gently,”Ashley, must you talk to your father this way?”
Ashley coldly asked, “How should I talk to you?”
“I know I did wrong, but I’ve always cared for you.”
Ashley laughed. “Yes, you care for me. That’s why you let Tanya get close to my husband and asked him to take care of her. Can you believe that?”
“Ashley…” Mark frowned.”I know you’re upset, but Tanya and Chase are truly in love. You can’t force someone to love you…”
“Yeah, you can’t force that. So it’s reasonable that you had an affair, and your illegitimate daughter Tanya became a home-wrecker, just like her mother It all made sense, right?”
Mark’s face darkened.” Ashley! Why are you so mean?”
“Mean? Ashley sneered. Would I be less mean if I divorced Chase and let Tanya have him?”
“Mark, what’s going on?” Ruby Mond and her daughter Eva entered. Seeing Ashley, Ruby smiled.”Ashley! You’re getting prettier.”
‘Mom…”
Eva hated it. Ashley was prettier than before. She was jealous of Ashley, but then she remembered that Chase didn’t like Ashley.
Mark asked, “Ruby, why are you here?”
“We came to check if things were all right, Uncle Mark,” Eva said. Seeing the open jewelry box, she loudly said to Ashley, “Uncle, is this the anniversary gift for Aunt Vivian? It’s beautiful!”
Mark smiled.”Yes.”
“You always give her the best things. You’re so sweet!”
Mark smiled. Cindy had understood the relationship between these people.
What a bunch of bitches,’ she whispered. After paying, she decided to leave with Ashley.
“Ashley, Mark stopped them. “Vivian cares for you. You and Tanya are sisters. I hope this doesn’t happen again.”
Ashley laughed. “Are you trying to disgust me?”
You…

“Uncle Mark, forget about it. Does she really deserve that? Only I am Tanya’s sister!” Eva looked at Ashley.”You blocked my sister from Eternal, right? But you don’t know that the more you target Tanya, the more Chase cares for her. He gave us a multi-million dollar project after learning how you and Tim bullied her. It’s a project your uncle wanted, haha…”
