A Vengeful Bride novel Chapter 228

She sat on the ground out of control, holding her wallet, crying and saying to herself, "I finally get it back. If the money is lost, Eddie will be so sad."

I thought of Cornelia when I looked at the woman who was crying so sadly.

I was softhearted.

There were always people in the world who couldn't understand the job as a prostitute. Although some women became prostitutes because they were willing to do it, most of the women were forced to be prostitutes. They had no choice but to make money with their bodies, because they just wanted to live.

All professions were equal, and we were not qualified to criticize other people's professions.

This poor woman reminded me of Cornelia. Maybe Cornelia was also robbed by a whore before.

"Miss, do you need any help?" I looked at her and asked faintly.

If she had any difficulties, I could help her.

However, she just looked at me and staggered to get up from the ground, as if she had smoked weed.

She thanked me in a low voice and left.

Looking at her back, I felt a little upset.

"You're very kind." When I was staring at her shadow under the dim street lights in a daze, Mrs. Laura suddenly said to me.

I looked back at Mrs. Laura and said with a smile, "No, I'm not kind. I was just helping the people I should help."

Hearing this, Mrs. Laura just smiled and got into the car with me.

I sat in the car and looked at the colorful lights outside the window. In the city, there were always some people struggling in pain. At that time, if someone could help them, maybe they would not be so painful.

"Madam, you're back." I came back with a tired body. When I returned home, the servant looked at me and said worriedly.

I sat down on the couch and pressed my uncomfortable temple, "Has Ashe fallen asleep?"

The servant did not answer me. He just lowered his head and stood not far from me.

I waited for a long time, but he didn't speak. Then I frowned and said, "What's wrong? Isn't he sleeping?"

Was he still making a fuss so he didn't want to sleep?

"No... it's not like this. Ashe... didn't come back." The servant raised his head in fear and said to me.

"What did you say?" My face darkened when I heard that.

Didn't Ashe come back? What did he mean? "Where is Cornelia?"

"She didn't come back either." The servant looked at me awkwardly and continued.

Even Cornelia didn't come back?

I took out my mobile phone and checked the time. It was already 11:30 pm, but Cornelia and Ashe didn't come back. What happened?

I immediately called Justin.

Justin didn't say anything. He just asked me to wait for a moment and he would come over soon.

Justin arrived in ten minutes.

When I saw Justin and was about to say something nervously, he said in a deep voice, "I know what you want to say. I have asked Victor to find Ashe. I believe he will find him soon."

"What's wrong with Ashe? Where can he go?" I couldn't control my emotions at the thought of something bad might happen to Ashe.

Seeing me like this, Justin reached out his hand and gently held my hand, "Well, don't worry, my assistants will find him. Besides, he is my godson. I have taught him so much and he won't be easily taken away by bad people."

Although that was the case, I was still very worried.

"Where is Cornelia? Where did she go?"

"She said that she must find Ashe and left alone." Justin's words made me a little helpless.

I took out my mobile phone and called Cornelia, but Cornelia was very stubborn and refused to come back. I could only allow her to do what she wanted.

"Ashe is getting more and more disobedient recently." Ashe used to very obedient before. Maybe it was because I didn't have time to take care of him, he suddenly became disobedient.

"Ashley, do you really not know why he was angry today?" Justin raised his eyebrows, looked at me, and said.

I looked at Justin's face in a daze and shook my head in confusion.

"Today is his birthday." Justin looked at me and said slowly.

What? Was it Ashe's birthday?

I took out my phone and checked the date.

Sure enough, it was his birthday, but I actually forgot about it. No wonder Ashe was so excited. It was all my fault.

"How can I forget his birthday?" I put my phone on the sofa feebly and said with tears in my eyes.

"You're too busy recently. It's normal that you don't remember."

Justin looked at him and said helplessly.

"I'm really a bad mother." Looking at Justin, I said with red eyes.
