NovelEnglishChapter 831 Even In Her Dreams Emelie was placing her trust in her to seek justice, but Ashley couldn't bring herself to make any promises.

Indeed, Ashley didn't want to see him.
Three years ago, she had asked for a divorce, and it had taken all his efforts to change her mind.
For a while, they had been so in love. They couldn't stay away from each other and eagerly anticipated the arrival of their child.
She told him that she didn't feel anything for him anymore, that she didn't love and didn't want him anymore.
Elias couldn't understand how she could be so heartless, discarding him like an old, unwanted toy. He had called out to her so many times, but she remained unmoved.
Like a stray dog, Elias would disappear during the day, staying out of her sight but keeping watch over her from afar. At night, he would sneak back into their honce she was asleep.
