Torn Between Love and Hate

Chapter 148

Chapter 148 What to Do

Deborah was indeed a bit over-excited. She felt she could finally be intimate with Joseph openly, just

like what she had done back in Oceanview City

Joseph leaned against the car door, and she hugged his neck affectionately. When they were about to

kiss, Deborah suddenly realized that Ashton was standing beside them.

Deborah’s affection seemed to be frozen in an instant. She subconsciously let go of Joseph and looked

at Ashton, who was staring at them with some displeasure.

Deborah reminded Ashton with a cold expression, “We are already divorced. Whatever I do is none of

your business.”

Ashton chased after the paparazzi without hesitation as soon as he saw him.

Now that the paparazzi got in the car and ran away, he happened to stand beside Deborah and

Joseph. With one glance, he saw them being intimate in public.

They hadn’t seen each other for three years, and Deborah really had changed a lot.

In the past, whenever she was under the others’ attention, she would blush shyly, even if she was only

holding hands

with Ashton.

But now that she had lost her memory, she only remembered the three years when she was close to

Joseph. So naturally, she couldn’t remember what she was like in the past.

Ashton reminded them flatly, “Just now a reporter secretly photographed you. Quite a lot of people

know you and Joseph, so it’s better to pay attention.”

Deborah looked around but didn’t see any suspicious reporters.

Ashton explained somewhat helplessly, “I chased after him just now, but he got into the car and ran

away.”

Deborah’s eyes were full of disbelief. She pulled Joseph’s sleeve and said, “Let’s go.”

Joseph helped her open the nearside door behind her, waiting for her to get in the car first. Then, he

went to the other side, got in the car, and drove away.

Ashton stood where he was, watching the car disappear.

The weather in the late winter was freezing. And from time to time, couples who had just received their

marriage. certificates would cuddle together, talking and laughing while walking by.

Ashton was suddenly in a trance, not knowing where he should go.

He suddenly didn’t know what to do in the future.

Ashton kept standing in a daze until a red Ferrari stopped in front of him.

The car window opened, revealing the driver’s face. It was Rebecca.

She said briefly, “Get in the car.”

Ashton glanced at her as if she were insane. He didn’t intend to talk to her and turned around to leave.

Rebecca immediately raised her voice. “You didn’t forget that you promised to accompany me to my

grandmother’s birthday party, right?”

Ashton stopped and looked at her impatiently.

Obviously, he really didn’t have the slightest impression about his promise.

Get Bonus

Rebecca didn’t mind and reminded him aloud. “A few days ago in Oceanview City, I was the one who

helped you get the surveillance video, allowing you to find Deborah smoothly. Back then, you agreed to

accompany me to my grandmother’s birthday party.”

After a while, Ashton managed to remember it.

He realized that Donna’s birthday party would be held today, and the Moxley family had already sent

him an

invitation.

Even if it weren’t for Rebecca, Ashton would have to attend that party anyway.

Ashton said flatly, “I’ll drive there by myself.”

Rebecca smiled amusedly. “Are you sure you are still able to step on the accelerator?”

Ashton ignored her, then turned around and walked towards his car.

Feeling annoyed, Rebecca opened the door to get out of the car and chased after him. “There are still

paparazzi around

here.

Ashton, you and Deborah have already divorced. But now, since Deborah and Joseph are being

affectionate, everyone

will scold her.

If you have something to do with me, those who accuse Deborah of cheating on you might stay silent.”

If both parties cheated, it could only mean that both of them were guilty. Therefore, the netizens

wouldn’t scold Deborah wildly.

Ashton finally stopped and turned around to look at Rebecca.

Not far away, two sneaky men immediately hid the camera behind them and turned around to avoid his

sight.

Ashton hesitated for a while, then walked towards Rebecca’s car.

The bright red sports car was obviously more ostentatious and easier to be caught by cameras.

Rebecca turned around and followed him. Then, she sneered. “Huh, what an idiot in love.”

The car Rebecca drove didn’t have a back seat. Ashton disliked it, but he had no choice but to open

the door and sit in the passenger seat.

The paparazzi went crazy with joy when they found unexpected news.

Their cameras kept following Rebecca and Ashton as if they could be stuck to their faces.

Rebecca seemed full of joy, and she drove Ashton to the Moxley Manor.

Ashton really couldn’t figure out whether Rebecca was out of her mind.

His domestic violence against Deborah had already been exposed in public at Deborah’s birthday

party.

Rebecca was the treasure of the Moxley family. And now her position in Runte Group was also very

important.

Ashton wondered if she enjoyed being tortured so much that she rejected many men and insisted on

pursuing him.

Ashton didn’t want to get into trouble with the Moxley family, so he couldn’t help but remind her, “You

can’t get what you want, Ms. Moxley. I’m not interested in women.

Besides, didn’t you see that once Deborah divorced me, she escaped faster than a rabbit?”

Rebecca smiled and said, “Not Interested in women, so what is Deborah, a man?”

Ashton was immediately displeased. “She is different from people like you.”

The smile on Rebecca’s face finally started to break. She looked forward with some disdain. “Don’t be

sentimental. Let me tell you, my grandmother said she prepared a wedding gift for me, which was 10% This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

of Runte Group’s shares.

I want to marry you so that I can get this asset worth more than 20 billion dollars. That’s my goal. If you

agree, I won’t bother you after we get married. Isn’t it just right for you?”

Since Hector had only one grandson, Ashton was bound to marry someone to carry on the family line.

Ashton was worried about Deborah, but he could no longer be with her.

If he could make an agreement to marry Rebecca, Rebecca would get the shares she wanted, and

Ashton would no longer be bothered. Both of them could benefit.

Ashton looked disgusted. “It’s impossible for me to play such a silly trick with you. If you want to get

married for money, go find someone else.”

Rebecca sighed helplessly. “It’s not that I haven’t thought about it. I want to find a random man, but

marrying an ordinary one can’t fool my Grandma, knowing that I would never like a man like that.

If I marry someone else who is better and savvier, what should I do if he wants to share the money with

me as my husband after I get that 10% of shares?

She looked at Ashton with a faint smile “After thinking about it, you are the most suitable candidate. If I

say that I have a crush on you and want to marry you, my grandmother will definitely believe it. After we

get married, you probably don’t have any interest in taking away my shates.”

Ashton didn’t even want to look at her anymore, so he took out his mobile phone to browse the news.

Rebecca still looked indifferent. “I’m not in a hurry. You will definitely consider it sooner or later. I am the

most

suitable candidate for you.”

Ashton didn’t listen to what she said and stared at the entertainment news on his mobile phone.

The photos of Deborah being intimate with Joseph outside the Civil Affairs Bureau just now had been

posted on the

Internet

Now, the abuse on the Internet was insane.

“Some women are so shameless these days.”

“She made out with her lover right after the divorce. Is she afraid that others would not know that she

had cheated

before the divorce?”

“I’ll wait for Mr. Mullen to file a lawsuit. She has insulted the profession of the designer!”

Ashton closed the browser, opened Twitter, and made a post.

“Deborah and I signed a divorce agreement three years ago. Due to some reasons, the formalities

were not completed until now, but we broke up peacefully three years ago.”

After he posted, the photos of him and Rebecca that had also been secretly taken quickly spread on

the Internet.
