Torn Between Love and Hate

Chapter 100 Deborah Lost Her Uterus

Ashton snorted coldly.

It was Hector who order people to beat Deborah, and Deborah's condition was still unknown in the

emergency room.

So, Ashton was unavoidably uneasy and guilty. He didn't argue with Joseph and sat back on the seat outside the emergency room.

Joseph led Lydia to the seat far away from where Ashton sat.

His voice was rarely gentle. "Ms. Shepherd, please sit down."

Lydia had been used to being bullied over the years. She was Devon's shady mistress. Devon's wife didn't want to let her go and made it known to everyone.

So, everyone who saw her outside would look at her in disgust.

Later, she gave on herself and squandered her life outside. As a result, more people showed no respect for

her.

She had heard of Joseph for a long time. He was vicious and unpredictable, and he treated everyone cruelly.

Now he brought her here and let her sit down so politely, which made Lydia a little flattered.

She sat down quickly and said "Thank you" repeatedly.

Ashton had a look at them, and his face was full of sarcasm and disdain.

Joseph wanted to please Deborah by flattering Lydia.

But he made a wrong move. Deborah obviously didn't care about her mother at all.

Ashton had tested it before. Deborah would rather watch her mother being beaten half to death than beg

Ashton.

It could be seen that her mother was not important in her heart.

That was why even though Ashton locked up Lydia, he didn't ask his men to keep an eye on her carefully. He

knew that Lydia was of little use to him.

So, Joseph seized the opportunity to save Lydia and brought her here.

Ashton sneered. Lydia was just a waste, but Joseph thought he got a useful card.

Joseph ignored Ashton's expression. He saw that Lydia was so nervous that she even trembled a little while sitting next to him.

He knew that he didn't have a good reputation outside, and there were even rumors outside that he killed people at will.

Those rumors were going too far. No wonder Lydia was afraid of him like this.

Joseph couldn't help softening his tone to comfort her, "Ms. Shepherd, don't be so nervous. Deborah and 1 are old acquaintances. I have no ill intentions towards her, nor will I have any ill intentions towards you."

Lydia became even more nervous when she heard what he said. "You you and she are old acquaintances? Did the damn girl borrow money from you?

Lydia was anxious and muttered, "Even if you turned to usury, how could you turn to him?"

If Deborah borrowed money from others, she just needed to repay the money and, at most, pay some more interest. If she borrowed money from Joseph, she had to use her life pay for the money. Lydia's face turned pale, and she asked him again, "How much did she borrow from you? She entered the emergency room like this. Is it because."

Joseph knew that he had a bad reputation, but he didn't expect it to be so bad.

He explained carefully, "Deborah didn't borrow any money from me. She and I are really just old

acquaintances. When Deborah first entered Bauer Manor at the age of thirteen, I lived in Mullen Manor which

is very close to Bauer Manor.

"We used to go to and from school together at that time. I was not easy to get along with at that time, and she took care of me a lot in school"

Lydia became confused after hearing it. "Aren't you from the Black family? Why did you live in Mullen. Manor?"

Joseph was silent for a while. "It's a long story."

Lydia let out an "Oh". Then, she said, "Debby told me that when she first entered Bauer Manor, she always followed a boy to go to and from school, and he later rescued her at the bottom of the mountain." Joseph's eyes lit up. "She still remembers it?"

31

So many years passed. He thought that he still cared about those things because he had just recovered his

memory.

But Deborah might have gradually forgotten them after so many years.

Those things happened when she was thirteen years old. Most people should hardly have too many impressions of things

happened over ten years ago.

Lydia looked him up and down strangely. "Of course, she remembers. She told me that the person is Mr. Mullen. She is a straightforward person. It was because the person saved her once that she fell in love with Mr. Mullen and married him."

Ashton sat not far away. His eyelids twitched for no reason as if something would happen, and he somehow felt guilty.

He couldn't help looking sideways at Joseph. He wondered if Joseph was speaking ill of him. Joseph couldn't say anything good about him. A filthy mouth couldn't utter decent language. Joseph's face froze, and after a long time, he said, "Why did she think Ashton is the person?" After saying that, Joseph suddenly remembered that Deborah had told him about it once before. She said that Ashton was a good person before and saved her.

Lydia said inexplicably, "Mr. Mullen is the only person in Mullen Manor who is about the same age as Debby.

"Moreover, Debby confirmed it with Mr. Mullen. Mr. Mullen said that he is the person. He asked her to forget about it as the thing happened so many years ago."

"What the fuck?" Joseph got up angrily and couldn't help swearing.

Because of this misunderstanding, Deborah was deceived by Ashton and married him.

Seeing his reaction, Lydia trembled in fright. She was afraid that she might have said something wrong, so she didn't dare to say anything again.

Thinking of Deborah who was still in the emergency room, Joseph endured it first and didn't find Ashton.

The door of the emergency room remained closed, and the three people sitting outside fell silent.

Ashton felt that he was so anxious that he was going to be crazy.

The child he was expecting was gone, and if something happened to Deborah, he didn't think he could bear it.

If someone else had hurt Deborah like this, Ashton would have killed that person thousands of times.

But Hector, his grandfather, did it. No matter what, he could do nothing to Hector.

He couldn't sit still anymore, so he got up to ask the doctor about the situation.

As soon as he stood up, the door of the emergency room opened.

The doctor pushed the pale Deborah out. Deborah was awake, but her eyes looked terribly cold.

Ashton felt his heart ache suddenly and immediately got up to walk to the bed.

Seeing Deborah's pale complexion, he found it difficult to say anything. "It's my fault. My negligence caused you to suffer this."

While he was speaking, Deborah just looked at him without saying a word.

Ashton didn't know how to comfort her, so after thinking for a long time, he said, "We will have another baby

in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. When Alyssa passed away, he said the same words to

Deborah,

When Deborah was pregnant this time and wanted to give up the baby, he said that he would definitely protect her and the baby this time. Chapter 100 Deborah Lost Her Uterus

But in the end, he...

Deborah didn't say anything as if everything had nothing to do with her.

The doctor on the side couldn't help reminding Ashton, "Mr. Mullen, in the emergency room just now, Mrs. Mullen's uterus has been removed."

Deborah was pushed into a ward and moved from the wheeled bed to the hospital bed.

Ashton was about to reach out to cover Deborah up with a quilt. He was stunned when he heard this.

He quickly became furious. "What did you say? Who allowed you to remove her uterus? Are you crazy? Did I agree with it?!"
