Chapter 1339 Monitoring Her

35

Unexpectedly, Julian even adjusted his hairstyle and proudly asked, “What do
you think? Don't I look way more energetic now?

“Julian, did you hit your head somewhere?”

Ashton stretched out her hand in astonishment and pulled at the man’s face in
front of her, wanting to see if he was an imposter.

When they met in Yeringham a while ago, he was drunk every day, as if he had
lost his soul. She heard it was the same when he returned to Onza. How did he
suddenly become so spirited now?

This is unbelievable!

Could it be that he is being impersonated, just like Mackenzie before?

“Ouch, what are you doing? It hurts!”

Julian quickly pushed her hand away and said, “I'm going to continue pursuing
my Hestia. She said she doesn't like men with long hair, so I cut my hair!”

Tsk tsk.

Ashton couldn't help but exclaim, “The power of love is truly amazing!”

“Indeed! Ash, will you cheer for me?”

After talking with Emmanuel, Julian was now full of determination. Since
Emmanuel had agreed to help him pursue Roselynn in the future, he had to give
it his all!

“Of course!” Ashton even high-fived Julian.

She used to dislike Emmanuel and naturally didn’t support Julian pursuing his
sister. But things were different now! Emmanuel not only saved her life but also
helped her solve multiple cases. He even helped her break through her internal
strength. Her fondness for Emmanuel simply skyrocketed.

If Julian marries Roselynn, wouldn't I become Emmanuel’s sister-in-law?

Just the thought of it makes me happy.

“Alright, with your support, I will do my best!" Julian was brimming with
determination,

But as soon as he turned around, he saw Althea’s cold face

“Uh, Mom? Are you here to welcome Ash home, too?” Julian looked at his
mother’s face and felt a bit scared subconsciously, but he still took the initiative to
ask.

“Hmph!” Althea let out a snort and walked into the house.

Julian couldn't help but sigh. Mom definitely doesn’t like me pursuing Roselynn,
so she deliberately gave me a cold look!

“Julian, don’t mind Mom. If you like Roselynn, go ahead and pursue her!” Ashton
encouraged Julian, “Life is short, so don’t give up on finding your own happiness
because of other people's opinions!”

These words struck a chord with Julian, giving him newfound courage.

“Julian, don’t mind Mom. If you like Roselynn, go ahead and pursue her!” Ashton
encouraged Julian, “Life is short, so don’t give up on finding your own happiness
because of other people's opinions!”

These words struck a chord with Julian, giving him newfound courage.

Little did they know that even though Althea had entered the villa, she could still
hear Ashton’s words. Her face turned red with anger. From the sound of it,
Ashton really is shamelessly pursuing Emmanuel, a married man.

What a disaster!

How did the Summerton family raise such disobedient children? Each one is
more embarrassing than the other!

But she always knew that Ashton had a fiery temper. She didn’t know how to tell
her off, and she was afraid of scolding her too harshly in case this rebellious
daughter of hers decided not to come home for another year in a fit of anger!
Why is it so difficult to raise children?

However, she didn’t expect that Ashton would come to her room not long after
she decided not to go look for her. She knocked on her door.

Althea thought it was Zaiden who had returned, but when she opened the door,
she realized it was Ashton standing outside.

“Hmph, I thought you'd forgotten about me, your mother?” Althea pouted, waiting
for Ashton to come and soothe her, hoping to calm her anger.

Little did she expect that Ashton would directly question in a cold voice, “Mom,
why did you mess with the Quillen family?”

Althea immediately turned furious and exclaimed, “What... What did you say?”
“You know what I'm talking about.”

Ashton had a quick temper. When she saw Althea feigning ignorance like this, it
only agitated her emotions further. “Wasn't it you who intentionally caused trouble
for the Quillen family?”

“Well, well! So you didn't come home just because of that son-in-law of the
Quillen family?” Althea decided to stop beating around the bushes.

“What son-in-law of the Quillen family?” Ashton looked confused.

“Stop pretending already.”

Ashton thought Althea was feigning ignorance, and Althea thought the same of
her. She directly opened the photo gallery on her phone and played a video for
her.

Ashton watched it, and her face fell Instantly. “Mom, you've been secretly
monitoring me?”

“Monitoring? Can't believe you would use such a word on me!”

Althea retorted coldly, “You said you were coming home today, and I was so
excited and happy. But no matter how long I waited, you didn’t come back. Only
then did I find out that as soon as you came back to Onza, you went looking for
Emmanuel in his room! And then you even went to the police station specifically
to help the Quillen family. Are you not ashamed? How did we, the Summerton
family, raise a shameless daughter like you?”
