Chapter 36
Since young, everything Ashlyn owned had been hand-me-downs from Penelope, even though she was the rightful heiress to the Berry family.
Back when she was younger, whenever Penelope got into trouble by breaking vases, destroying the garden, or smashing antiques, Ashlyn would take the rap for her. She would be blamed for anything Penelope caused.
No matter how she explained herself to Horace, he would only ever believe Mary and Penelope.
Thanks to the two of them, she had been hit by Horace many times.
Once, when her grandma visited them in the city, Ashlyn was beaten up by Horace and was down with a fever.
No one cared about her except for her grandma, who sent her to the hospital and took her back to her home in a rural village.
Only then did her days improve.
Although she lived a poor and simple life with her grandma, it was heartwarming and peaceful.
It was only when she became the top scorer for the national exams that Horace remembered that he had a daughter called Ashlyn.
He brought both Ashlyn and her grandma back into the city to live together with them.
