Chapter 1265

So, after taking a shower, Ashlynn decided to take a stroll outside instead of staying in the room. She noticed the wound on her back during the shower.

Even though Aunt Cher was a woman, perhaps she had been working in labor all her life, and she was extraordinarily strong.

Ashlynn’s back had strips of red marks, they were all swollen, and some skin was even peeling. She felt the pain when her clothes brushed against them

So, she pulled down her collar over her shoulder, trying to see if it worsened.

“Are you injured? Is it serious?”

Ashlynn saw that it was Jeremy. She stood up and said, “Not really...”

Jeremy walked over and then pulled her blouse down. “Let me see.

"Wait a second...” Ashlynn was taken aback. How could this guy get so up close?

She was wearing something loose, and her top was easily pulled to the shoulder blade.

"Ah..." Ashlynn felt her neck slightly strangled and kept her mouth open.

Ashlynn’s shoulder blades were beautiful, and they looked like a pair of butterflies and unrealistically gorgeous.

Her smooth skin had four long streaks, and they showed a hint of blood,

“You need medication.” Jeremy frowned slightly. His good-looking face seemed slightly displeased. Aunt Cher was a little too much.

Just when he was about to withdraw his hand, a red birthmark on the side caught his attention.

It was a red mark darker than that of the swollen areas. It was small, like the tip of a nail, and curved like a crescent.

Ashlynn was about to ask him if he had done with the inspection, but she felt Jeremy's finger touching her. She jumped and hastily pulled her blouse back.

Jeremy looked slightly stunned. She found it strange and asked, “What's wrong?”

Jeremy quickly concealed his expression and answered, “Nothing. I will get someone to send you the medication.” Then, he ordered the servant to retrieve some anti- inflammatory medicine. “Thank you,” Ashlynn said.

Jeremy stood under the balcony with his hands in his pockets, looking unbothered.” So, you grew up in the slum.”

Ashlynn had never felt ashamed of that, so she admitted, “This is not a secret.”

She thought if this was someone else, they probably thought of humiliating her, but Jeremy would not.

“Are your parents good to you?” Jeremy asked.

Ashlynn looked at him strangely and said, “It was alright. They did not give birth to me. It was good enough for them to provide me with food and shelter.”

She saw Jeremy was stunned for a brief moment.

“Is there any problem?” Ashlynn asked, then she said casually, “Are you thinking... That it was already pathetic enough for me to be born in the slum area and, worse, not to have my own parents, right?”

Jeremy hid his expression again and said, “No.”

Then, the servant came by with the medicine. “Young Master.”

Jeremy said, “Don’t stay in the servants’ quarters tonight. Arrange a guest room for her.”

The maid was frozen in her original spot.

"Are you deaf?” Jeremy's face turned dark.

Ashlynn knew that he was biased for her, but she was also born poor and offended Beth and Meredith. She was afraid that they were going to make a scene when they found out.

“No need for that. I am fine staying in the servants’ quarters,” Ashlynn said against her will.

“This is an order.” Jeremy did not give her a chance to decline and then left.

He heard Ashlynn asking from behind, “You did not... fall for me, did you?”
