Chapter 20 A Sense of Familiarity With Deborah
Ashton’s eyes suddenly darkened, and he immediately called Deborah.
But it could not be connected, and he would not call Joseph for help. Therefore, Ashton turned back
into the ward with an extremely gloomy face.
Helen woke up on the bed and sat up. Nina had brought her breakfast.
Ashton asked her directly, “Helen, did you see Deborah return to Flora Villa last night?”
Helen looked confused, replying, “Yes, Nina said that Debby returned to Flora Villa. Ashton, what
happened? Is Debby alright?”
Ashton concealed his emotions and said lightly, “Nothing, I was just asking ”
Nina seemed to think of something and said, “Mr. Mullen, I remember that Ms. Shepherd did come
back last night.
“But she left soon. Alyssa was still in Flora Villa, and I thought that Ms. Shepherd would definitely come
back, so I didn’t stop her.”
Nina spoke and hesitated. “When Ms. Shepherd came back last night, she looked very happy and said
something strange. She said that… she would no longer have to be afraid of you in the future.”
Helen looked surprised. “Is that true? Nina, why didn’t you tell us earlier? Maybe Debby has gone.
Nina, you were too careless. How do you want me to explain to Ashton now?”
“Ashton, can’t you find Debby?” Helen asked worriedly.
“It’s my fault. When I called you last night, I should have asked Nina about it first. I thought it was
already so late and Debby would not go out again when she came back.”
Ashton was angry. He said in a low voice, “Helen, this has nothing to do with you. Have a good rest. I
will go out for a while.”
As Ashton spoke, he turned around and walked out of the ward.
As soon as Ashton left, the weak and uneasy look on Helen’s face disappeared. She looked at Nina
with satisfaction, and they smiled
at each other.
It had been a whole night, and things must have happened. What could Ashton do if he went out now?
Nina said proudly, “Ms. Bauer, you have finally succeeded. A cheap slut born from a mistress is not
worthy to compete with you for
Mr. Mullen.”
Helen smiled sinisterly. “Do you think she’s still alive after being controlled by Joseph, that lunatic?”
Nina shook her head. “I don’t think so. When she is dead, you’ll be Mr. Mullen’s wife in the future.
“Even if she’s still alive, she’s already sullied by Joseph. Mr. Mullen is a freak about it. In the future, I’m
afraid he will feel disgusted just by looking at her.”
Helen’s eyes were filled with hatred. She said maliciously, “She deserves it. Her mother took the heart
of my father away and tried to replace my mother. Now she wants to get my man, Both Deborah and
her mother are courting death!”
Helen imagined that soon, she could see Deborah’s body or her miserable appearance.
Then she could marry Ashton, and then she would be his noble and respectable wife. Thinking about it,
Helen was full of longing.
Deborah didn’t sleep well and felt pain in her brain. She had a headache and was sweating all over.
It was not until the curtains of the hotel room were pulled open and the light stimulated her eyes that
she finally woke up abruptly
Deborah looked blankly at the curtains that had been pulled open and saw Joseph standing in front of
the window with a towel lied around his waist. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

She could see his tall and sexy figure, which reminded her slowly of everything that had happened last
night.
Last night, Joseph leaned close to her ear and said in a low and bewitching voice, “What does it feel
like to have sex with Ashton’s
wife?”
Joseph pressed her down on the sofa and she could only see the white ceiling.
Later, she fell unconscious. Until now, when she woke up, it was morning.
The whole night passed, but Ashton did not appear.
Deborah lay on the bed, her eyes unfocused. She stared out the window. It was unknown whether she
was looking out the window or
Joseph
Joseph sat on the sofa, smiled, and said, “Do I look good? Satisfied?”
Deborah remained motionless and closed her eyes.
She could feel that her clothes had been changed into a thin night dress in the hotel room.
Joseph looked interested. “There must be something wrong with Ashton’s eyes. Or is he impotent? He
keeps Helen, who is stupid
and ugly, by his side. You are so sexy and charming, but he sent you to other men,”
As he spoke, he got up and walked over to Deborah. With a frivolous expression, he bent down and his
finger was about to touch her
face.
Deborah finally reacted. She grabbed an ashtray from the bedside table and threw it at his face.
Joseph’s forehead was hit, and blood quickly flowed down his eyebrows.
Joseph was stunned for a moment. He probably did not expect that Deborah, who looked so lifeless
and hopeless at the moment,
would still attack.
Then he laughed softly, got two tissues, and slowly wiped the blood on his face.
For some reason, Joseph had a sense of familiarity with Deborah. But when he approached her and
looked at her closely, it seemed
like it was just an illusion.
He straightened up, took the watch from the bedside table, and put it on.
A scar on his wrist was half-covered by the watch, and when he took off his shirt cuffs, the scar was
hidden.
There was a knock on the door, and a man’s voice came, “Mr. Black, it’s time to go to the company.”
Joseph did not look at Deborah on the bed anymore. He dressed neatly and returned to his well-
dressed appearance. Then he
stepped out.
When he walked to the door and was about to open it to go out, Deborah suddenly called out to him
from behind, “Mr. Black.”
Joseph paused and turned around to look at her. “What? You don’t want me to leave, right? Do you
want to do it again?”
Deborah thought of Alyssa, who was still in Flora Villa. She didn’t want to see Ashton anymore. It was
time to leave this time.
Her hands were clenched tightly under the quilt. No matter how embarrassed she felt, she still said,
“You haven’t paid yet.”
Joseph was stunned for a moment, but soon, the smile in his eyes disappeared, and he looked at her
with contempt.
To provoke Ashton, he transferred some money to Ashton before.
However, he was not going to bargain with Deborah. He opened the door and looked at the driver
standing outside. “Give her no matter how much she wants.”
Alter Joseph finished speaking, he left directly.
Deborah did not dare to ask for too much money. After all, she did not know who Joseph was and
whether he was rich or not.
She just guessed that since he dared to go against Ashton, he should be powerful.
She carefully asked for 15 thousand dollars. Joseph’s driver immediately signed the check, threw it to
her, and left.
Deborah was worried about Alyssa, who was still in Flora Villa, so she picked up the check and got up
from the bed.
The clothes she wore last night were gone, and the night dress she wore was too thin. It was
something from the hotel room, so she
couldn’t wear it out.
There was a folded dress on the sofa, which should be left for her
Deborah hesitated for a while, but she had no other choice. She could only change into the dress.
She found her phone under the coffee table, and she saw calls from Ashton on it.
The first missed call was over nine o’clock in the morning.
Deborah smiled silently. Did he call her at that time to ask if she was satisfied with the punishment last
night?
Deborah grabbed the phone and the check, left the hotel, and took a taxi to Flora Villa.
Alyssa was still there. She did not know how she was doing.
The taxi stopped near Flora Villa. Deborah had just gotten out of the car Out of habit, she was about to
walk to the gate of Flora Villa, which was 1.2 miles away, when a car suddenly rushed over from
behind.
She had no time to react. The car was very close behind her and stopped abruptly
The driver was in a rage. Deborah knew that it was Ashton in the car.
However, she thought that Ashton should be very satisfied at this time. What was there to be angry
about?
Ashton pushed open the door of the driver’s seat and got out of the car. His face was full of anger. He
took a few steps closer to Deborah and grabbed her neck fiercely, asking, “Did you sleep with Joseph?
