Exclusive Memory

Chapter 17 The Shameful Stepsister and Stepmother

Ashley wasn't sure whether Belinda had taken in her advice.

After getting back to the company, she couldn't help but find out the photos and audio tape she had taken in the cafe before. She stared at the computer for a long time and she thought that if Belinda did not expose Sheila's trick, she had to send these to Francis. This method was risky, for it might make Gloria and her daughter suspect her.

Samuel was worrying about his daughter these days. He firstly scolded Francis who gave him a good attitude and said that he would be responsible for her daughter. However, his promises went quiet and there were no further news from him after two or three days.

Samuel lost his temper again at dinner. "Sheila, look what you've done. Is our daughter leftover? And now you all turned to Francis, but he gave us cold shoulders. There was no news from him for days. I felt so humiliated."

Gloria said blandly and tried to comfort him, "Samuel, why don't we have a talk with his parents? They won't disregard their son cause troubles, will they?"

"Shame on you! Yes, I'm ashamed of it. Our families had feuded since Ashley and Francis divorced. How embarrassed to pay them a visit!"

Hearing this, Gloria stepped on Ashley's foot carelessly and said, "Yes. If Ashley hadn't cheated him before marriage, the relations between our two families won't be so strained."

Hearing what he said, Ashley stopped drinking the soup. She took a napkin and wiped the corner of her mouth. "Yes, if I hadn't divorced Francis, my sister would have been his mistress for three or four years."

"Ashley, you always have every reason to cheat before marriage!" Sheila lost the control of himself.

"Come on, stop it. Don't you see that your father is still mad at you?" Gloria came to break the awkwardness.

Ashley looked at her father. Streaks of grey hair had appeared on his head and he would dye his hair periodically. Now her grey hair was growing out, showing that her father was no longer young. She bowed her head and didn't say anything, but she thought, 'if you didn't married her, then you wouldn't need to suffer such unpleasant consequence. You brought trouble on yourself.'

Sheila was not sure what happened to the Xue family. She could feel that Francis had feelings for her, but his attitude towards her was always changing. She was not sure whether it is

because of the failure in his last marriage that had left him a shadow side in his heart. Every time when she mentioned marriage, he always dodged it.

"Daddy, Francis may be quite busy these days and he didn't had the time to talk with his parents. I will ask him when I get a chance." Sheila said.

But Samuel didn't answer her.

The next day, when Sheila went out, Ashley had been waiting not far away. Seeing this, Ashley followed Sheila immediately.
