What’s his take on Ashlyn?
Beckett hadn’t expected her to ask this question, but now that she had, he pondered for at
moment.
He stroked his chiseled jawline and let out a heavy sigh. “To be honest, it’s complicated. As kids, we never really got along with Grandma. She didn’t like Mom, and she wasn’t too fond of us either. You might not believe it, but we had it rougher than Yvonne. That’s partly why us, especially Stirling and Jasper, didn’t care much for Yvonne; Grandma showed blatant favoritism from the start.
She used to say Yvonne was a gift from the heavens, and that Mom would lose you because of her sins, her lack of faith. She said you had bad luck, claimed Mom had a cursed fate. When. Yvonne was little, she could have anything she wanted, even if it meant taking things from Elara. And Grandma would scold Elara, not her.”
Under such extreme favoritism, and with Ashlyn constantly being hard on Sienna, it wasn’t surprising that the Schnabel kids didn’t have much love for Ashlyn!
“When we were little, Grandma said kids shouldn’t eat too much at night if they wanted to grow tall. I believed it until Yvonne came to our house, and then I realized she could eat her fill!”

Beckett felt a bit embarrassed recalling these memories. It was as though, even now, as the head of the Schnabel business empire, he still couldn’t shake off the memory of the meals he
missed out on as a kid!
“As for Yvonne, once we caught her taking Elara’s things and damaging them. Elara and Jasper gave her a thrashing, a proper one. But even then, Grandma made Elara apologize and refused to let her eat. Eventually. Dad took us and moved out. On one hand, I feel like I should respect Grandma as my elder, but on the other, it’s really hard to muster that respect.”
He had meant to sugarcoat his words, but for some reason, he found himself opening up more around Noella, sharing everything with her. He never felt this way about Elara.
Perhaps it was because Noella was his sister!
Noella nodded. “I get it.”
The fact that Beckett was this candid meant there wasn’t much affection for Ashlyn.
Noella pulled out a paternity test report and handed it to Beckett. “Beckett, this is for you.”
Beckett looked puzzled, but as soon as he saw what the report contained, he stood up abruptly. eyes wide with shock.
