Chapter 46
Chapter 46
Jeremy remembered it vividly. When he woke up in the hospital, Jessica claimed she had saved him and falsely accused Ashley of running away alone.
At that time, he already harbored a strong dislike for Ashley, and Jessica’s words only intensified his resentment. For an entire month, he kept Ashley at arm’s length, not wanting to see her at all.
Looking back, Jeremy wondered if Ashley had desperately wanted to explain and tell him the truth during that month.
But he, swayed by Jessica’s one–sided narrative, refused to see Ashley, claiming that her face made him nauseous.
Thinking about it now, how helpless and desperate must Ashley have felt during that month?
Despite risking her life to save him and enduring immense suffering to bring him to safety, Ashley was treated unfairly afterward. She must have felt very depressed and helpless back then.
All of this was because Jessica lied to Jeremy.
Jessica stole Ashley’s credit, portraying herself as a kind–hearted sibling, and she even slandered. Ashley shamelessly.
“Jessica, how could you be so heartless! You bastard!”
Jeremy’s face turned livid, and he glared at her with eyes filled with fury.
“Jeremy, I didn’t mean to lic. I was just so scared back then…”
Jessica cried profusely, grabbing Jeremy’s sleeve as she approached him.
“Jeremy, it’s all my fault. I know what I did was horrible. I was just afraid you would be disappointed in me. You’re my brother, and I didn’t want to lose you.”
If this had been in the past, Jeremy would have felt sorry for her and forgiven her by now.
But not this time.
Jessical Jeremy angrily interrupted her, “Stop trying to justify yourself! Can you justify your actions. to Ashley?”
A resounding slap echoed again.
Jeremy struck Jessica’s other cheek, leaving a red mark. Her eyes were swollen from crying.
Seeing this situation, the onlookers were hesitant to intervene.
Although they were brought there by Jessica, what she had done had completely shattered their previously held views.
The whispers among them didn’t stop, and they weren’t afraid of Jessica overhearing.
“Damn, how long has Jeremy been kept in the dark?”
“I always thought Ashley had selfishly escaped back then, but it turns out Jessica was the one who ran away!”
“Geez, Jessica is really good at distorting the truth! She painted herself as a great savior while slandering Ashley. How shameless!”
“I think the one who has it the worst is Ashley. What did she do wrong? She saved Jeremy, and instead, she got unfairly accused!”
“Didn’t anyone in the Ramos, family believe her? No matter what, she is the biological daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ramos, Jeremy’s blood sister, right?”

Chapter 46
“Damn, I suddenly understand why Ashley cut ties with the Ramos family…”
Hearing these discussions, Jeremy knew he couldn’t refute them. They were right. He had been at jerk, believing Jessica’s one–sided version.
Ashley was his biological sister, but he never believed her.
Jeremy suddenly wanted to find Ashley.
‘I must find her right now! I have to get my own sister back!” He thought.
Jeremy immediately looked towards the nearby lake. Then, he saw Ashley and Joseph standing up, walking away expressionlessly.
A pang of sorrow struck Jeremy’s heart, and without thinking, he rushed to catch up with them.
“Jeremy!” Seeing this, Jessica immediately reached out to stop him.
She couldn’t let Jeremy find Ashley.
Ashley longed for family. If Jeremy went to find her, she would undoubtedly forgive him easily.
By then, Jeremy would definitely bring Ashley back to the Ramos family.
And if Ashley actually returned, Jessica feared that she might be kicked out in no time.
Jessica was horrified at the thought of this possibility, and she shouted desperately, Jeremy, I’ll apologize to Ashley right now. I shouldn’t have done this. It was all my fault!”
However, Jeremy had no patience to listen to her nonsense. “Fuck off!”
He cursed and forcefully pushed Jessica away.
Jessica stumbled and lost her balance, collapsing on the ground with a thud.
She froze for a moment and couldn’t help but cry when watching Jeremy hurriedly chase after Ashley.
Jeremy actually pushed Jessica to the ground and left without looking at her.
He had never been so rude to her.
Meanwhile, Ashley and Joseph left the lakeside together.
Reflecting on the video played on the big screen a while ago, Ashley still felt quite emotional. The truth from back then was finally revealed to the public.
However, she hadn’t been able to find this video no matter how hard she tried.
How could it end up playing on that screen?
Moreover, Jessica had tried several times to close the video, but it seemed like someone had hacked
Suddenly, Ashley remembered Joseph’s words from earlier. “Rest assured. Valentin will let you enjoy a good show today.”
Could it be…
A realization struck Ashley, and she looked at Joseph with surprise. “Valentin found this video?”
