Chapter 1715 Are You All Right

Seconds later, I found my foolish thought ridiculous. As guilt had overwhelmed my heart, I didn’t even think of fighting back and kept thinking of an excuse to get to my knees.

Perhaps I fell silent for too long, for Rebecca grew increasingly restless. “Will you get on your knees or not? I’m running out of patience. I won’t bear responsibility if something happens to Ashton!” she declared.

Her words acted like a jab of adrenaline that boosted the energy within me before it could fade away. Nothing was more important than Ashton now. My fists balled up as I made up my mind to kneel before her.

Even if I discard my pride and dignity, Rebecca will never give in. She wants to see us die a horrible death. I bet she wants Ashton to remain missing forever so we won’t reunite with each other. There’s no way she’ll be kind enough to tell me about his whereabouts.

Coming to my senses, I promptly straightened my back and returned her sharp glare with an equally sharp one. No debts were equal. Just because I had a bottom line, I should be submissive to her? What about my dead child? Who would make it up to me?
