NovelUpdateChapter 1327 Aspen thought, 'Mom's right. I have feelings for Andrew, but he might not feel the same. In the end, it's probably just my one-sided wishful thinking. To him, I'm just a tool, a servant he can command at will "Maybe he wouldn't refuse if I offered myself physically, but in his, heart, I doubt he ever sawas anything close to Lauren or Francesca. Wait-No, I'm not even hoping for a place like Lauren or Francesca.

Feeling resigned, Aspen finally said, "Mom, just tell Dad that after the Grand Medical Summit, I'll return to Bridgefields with you." Her heart felt cold and heavy. Esther noticed her precious daughter's obvious sorrow and tried to. comfort her. "Don't worry, Aspen. Once we're back in Bridgefields, your father and I will introduce you to the finest young men from the best families.
You're not getting any younger. Once you're back, focus on settling down and don't worry about other things." Aspen's tone turned frosty. "I'll go back with you, but as for marriage, forget it. 1 grew up in Bridgefields. I know better than anyone what those so-called heirs are like. In any case, I've decided Twon't marry. I'd rather spend the rest of my life alone." ---- Esther bit back her frustration, her heart filled with worry.
She feared Aspen had already sunk too deep, too far gone to pull back. The Ferrari's engine roared to life, and the sleek car sped off, its taillights vanishing around the street corner. Only then did Zephyr turn to Esther, asking, "So? What did she say?" Esther hesitated, struggling to find the right words. Zephyr's frown deepened. "Just say it.
Whatever it is, I'm ready to hear it." Esther finally sighed and whispered, "Aspen has probably fallen for Andrew." Zephyr nearly jumped out of his shoes. "W-What did you just say?" 'This news hit him harder than the thought of his precious daughter being physically taken advantage of. Esther's face grew complicated. "Zephyr, I'm out of ideas!

In that kind of situation, feelings are bound to grow, even if ---- you try to guard against them.

Being enslaved and oppressed, yet still falling for him? Aspen is in too deep!" Esther could not help but whisper, "But I'm not so sure it's entirely a bad thing since Andrew treats our daughter quite well." Zephyr let out abitter laugh. "Yes, I can see that he treats her well. But so what? Do you really think our family can handle the fallout if things go south? If he uses her and then discards her, who's going to pick up the pieces? You? Me? Who? Think about it.
In our entire family, is there anyone who can stand up to someone like Andrew?" Esther let out another heavy sigh, her worries only deepening. Meanwhile, Zephyr's face twitched as another thought crossed his mind. He glanced at his wife, his tone awkward as he asked, "D-Did you ask Aspen if... if she and Andrew have, you know..." Esther's face flushed crimson, and she snapped, "Are you crazy? How could I possibly ask her something like that?! Besides, the way Aspen acts around him...
