Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 333

Once they returned to Kilos City, the night was fading, and dawn was approaching.

In the living room of Kingsley Villa, Joseph remained mentally on high alert, even though he hadn’t

slept all night. He didn’t feel sleepy at all at the moment, and he looked up to see that Valentin hadn’t

taken his hands. off Ashley the whole way back from Samniss City. He thought, ‘Valentin is so good to

Ashley.’

Not only was Joseph not sleepy, but he was getting more and more energized by the affection between

the two.

However, he still asked uneasily, “Valentin, what time is Ashley scheduled to meet with the Pliskin

family? Is she okay with the injury she’s got? Should we push the meeting back a bit?”

Valentin looked at Ashley. “Do you want to push it back?”

With his personal thoughts, he wanted to push it back a bit so Ashley could get better first. No matter

how easy she made it sound, her injury was from a dagger, after all. And a fierce kidnapper was

certainly powerful.

But given his understanding of Ashley, she certainly didn’t want to push

it back.

So, on the way back, he didn’t even take the liberty of helping her push the meeting backward.

Sure enough, Ashley quickly shook her head and said simply, “It’s fine. There’s no need to push it back.

Let’s just meet at the agreed upon time.”

Joseph nodded. “Okay. Valentin’s with you anyway, and he’ll be sure to take good care of you. What

time are you meeting with the Pliskin family?”

Ashley answered, “Ten o’clock in the morning.”

Joseph glanced at the clock over four hours away from ten o’clock and

excitedly said, “Let me come with you then!”

He wasn’t so close to the Pliskin family but was curious as to whether Ashley was related to them or

not.

Ashley saw right through him, and the corner of her mouth twitched.

“Whatever. You can follow if you want.”

Joseph was instantly moved and said, “Wow, Ashley, you’re so good to me. I’m so lucky to be friends

with you.”

When he finished, he looked at Valentin. “Valentin, what a great husband you’ve had!”

Then he thought he was wrong and always reversed the gender between Valentin and Ashley!

But Valentin didn’t correct it in any way, nodding calmly. “Uh-huh.”

Ashley was speechless.

Joseph nearly laughed so hard that his stomach hurt and thought, ‘How badly does Valentin want to be

tied to Ashley? He’d gladly accept it even if I said Ashley was his husband!”

It was more than four hours before ten o’clock. Considering Ashley’s injury, Joseph left first, letting

Ashley rest for a while.

Back in the bedroom, Ashley looked at Valentin, who had been caring for her. Although he hadn’t said

anything, she could guess what he was thinking by looking at his solemn demeanor.

Ashley moved over and kissed Valentin on the lips. “You’re not allowed to think nonsense or blame

yourself. Don’t think that you didn’t take care of me or that you let me get hurt or anything like that. I’m

telling you, the most important thing for you to do right now is kiss me and hug me. Nothing else is to

be thought of!”

Valentin looked down at her with emotions hidden in his eyes.

Ashley’s eyes rolled, suddenly cried out in a very contrive exaggerated manner. “Ouch… My wound

suddenly hurts…”

Valentin looked instantly nervous even though her acting was so ba down for a moment. I’ll call the

doctor right away.”

“You don’t have to call a doctor. I have a way to stop the pain!” Ashley smiled wryly and brought her

face to his. “My way is for you to kiss me and I won’t hurt.”

Valentin was lost for words.

Ashley urged with her face turned sideways, “Come on, kiss me. I’m going to get mad if you don’t!”

Valentin could tell she was hurt and still trying to find ways to ease his self-blame, not to let him be

harsh on himself.

Valentin’s chest had been hollowed out from the moment he’d learned of Ashley’s injury, filling it with a

cold, howling wind. Now, looking at Ashley’s playful behavior, the empty part of his chest seemed to be

gradually filled with warm spring sunshine.

Valentin’s eyelashes lowered gently, and a soft, reverent kiss fell on her face in a most cherished

manner.

Ashley succeeded in receiving a kiss and smiled like a victorious little fox, her eyes curving up. She

looked bright and lively, extraordinarily attractive.

Finally coaxing Valentin into a good mood, Ashley was just about to say something when she was

suddenly embraced in Valentin’s arms, followed closely by a lingering kiss on her lips.

Blinking, Ashley was stunned for only a second before responding by lifting her arms and hugging

Valentin…

After a long time, Ashley was held onto Valentin’s lap. She found a comfortable position against his

arms, calming her errant breathing, and pressed her lips, feeling like they were a little swollen.

She picked up the small mirror on the nightstand and took a look. Sure enough, her lips were a bright

red and moist, like sakura jelly.

Putting the mirror back, Ashley looked up to kiss Valentin’s chi d said, “Let’s not tell Lester about my

injury until we meet during the

It wouldn’t worry them this way.

And not many people knew about her kidnapping this time. So want to spread it around yet.
