Chapter 784

Ashley's face was a storm of emotions, like her territory had just been overtaken. She shot Nathalie a frosty look. "Nathalie, I've told you, he's my fiancé. Why are you always eyeing someone else's fiancé? Don't you have any shame?"

Nathalie's face flushed with embarrassment, turning beet red under Ashley's barrage.

She never really doubted the bond between Ashley and Morris. After all, in another lifetime, they were husband and wife.

"I know he's your fiancé, but he's also my bro-"

"Brother? Stop making things up. If you meant anything to him, why haven't I ever heard him talk about you?"

She decided to level with Ashley.

"Ashley, I've seen him. He needs my help," Nathalie pleaded, her eyes earnest. Ashley was caught off guard.
