At first, Corentin was stunned. Then, he said, "Who have I killed? Ash, you've misunderstood. I've changed now. It's true. Hurry up and come down. The ravioli is getting cold."

"Don't come over! I'll jump if you get any closer!" Ashlynn shouted hysterically.

"Alright, alright. I won't go over!" Corentin did not dare to take another step further. "Ash, I'm telling the truth. I didn't kill anybody. Come down, and I'll explain to you. It's all a misunderstanding."

"Actually, I've felt it was strange since the beginning. It's just that Anne's reassurance dispelled my suspicion about you." Tears filled Ashlynn's eyes, but they did not stream down her face. She looked at Corentin and said, "But I know everything now. I don't have evidence, but you are Salvatore Yeager. At first, I thought you would change for the sake of the child. In the end… In the end, you didn't even spare the child's grandparents. Salvatore, are you even human? Why would a monster like you exist?"

"Ash, come down, and we'll talk, alright? This is too dangerous."

"Do you want to know how it feels when the person you cared about the most dies? You should experience it." Ashlynn did not give herself a way out. At the moment when her tears streamed down, she jumped off the balcony.

"No!" Corentin roared as he rushed over.

However, he did not catch the corner of Ashlynn's clothes in time.

He watched as Ashlynn fell to the ground. Blood flowed out from under her body.

None of the maids who stood downstairs caught her.
