My Extraordinary Wife

Horace was so frightened that he grabbed his head and bawled, “What are you doing? Ashlyn, don’t you dare come any closer! This place is full of prison guards. They’ll come after you if you try to hurt me in any way!”

He felt a piercing pain on his scalp. He looked up to see that Ashlyn had wrenched a few strands of hair from his head.

Horace’s face grew even paler. “Why are you doing that to my hair? Who do you think you are to pull my hair like that?”

If this little wretch had already discovered the truth about what had happened all those years ago… if she actually knew that she was…

The more Horace thought about it, the more suspicious he became.

Who had instigated Ashlyn to investigate this? And why had she suddenly gained a grandfather on her maternal side?

Mary has cursed and beat me so many times, but you’ve never uttered a word to stop her. Yet, here I was, wondering why you’ve never loved me.” Ashlyn picked up her handbag and drew a deep breath. “The paternity test results will tell me exactly why.”
