Chapter 164 Ashley Was Being Bullied.

A week had gone by since Leonica's interview with Florence. During those seven days, nothing noticeable had happened and because of that, Leonica was just about thinking that her love was finally settling down.

But that was wishful thinking. A month couldn't go by in her life without drama, Leonica knew this much after getting to the hospital for Ashley's monthly checkup and being informed that his condition hadn't improved, in fact, it had worsened.

"How is this possible?" She questioned, her expression full of worry as she held onto her son's hand. "You said everything was okay as long as he took his meds. A few years, you said." She was speaking with Doctor Bailey, who at this moment couldn't even explain why Ashley's condition had suddenly deteriorated.
