Chapter 215: Identity Crisis (3)

It took a moment for what Avalina said to dawn upon Ashton. He stood there as if his legs had become one with the ground. His eyes were wide, wider than they had ever been, fixated on Avalina's face as if it was the only thing that existed in the universe for Ashton. 

"Ashton please... say something." Avalina pleaded as soon as she realised Ashton was slipping into a state of shock. 

However, there was nothing for Ashton to say. A million questions were running in his mind, but not a single one of them could be formed into words at that moment. 

'Was this her idea of a joke? Does she even believe this herself? What the hell is she even saying!'
