Chapter 376
Valentin pushed the door to the ward and saw Ashley sitting on the bed, finally awake. At
that moment, it felt like his heart had stopped.
Time seemed to freeze, and everything around them came to a standstill.
The sound of the wind, the birds outside the window, and even the dancing leaves were all
frozen in mid-air.
All he could see were her clear, watery eyes.
After a brief silence, his heart began to race intensely, as if all the blood in his body was
flowing backward. His grip on the door handle tightened, and his knuckles turned white
with the effort.
Ashley leaned against the bed, blinking as she watched him enter.
Just a moment ago, she had an inexplicable and intense premonition that Valentin was
coming.
After the door was pushed open, the person who entered was indeed
him.
The entire room fell into a profound silence. Even Karen, Brian, and others involuntarily
quieted down.
Valentin’s deep and profound gaze was fixed on Ashley, whom he had longed for, reluctant
to share even a fraction of it with others.
Finally, he walked over, his steps carrying a rare sense of panic.
Although only a few seconds had passed, it felt like an eternity before he stood in front of
Ashley.
Valentin’s eyes were deep and intense, seemingly calm on the surface but roiling
underneath with overwhelming love and longing. He couldn’t restrain himself any longer
and bent down to embrace her as if holding his entire world.
“Ashley.” His girl… His life…had finally come back.
Just as Ashley was about to speak, she felt a slight trembling in the arm that held her and
a warm, moist sensation near her neck.
Ashley’s heart tightened, flooded with a dense and poignant sorrow.
Just as she was about to hug him back tightly, offering him reassurance

and comfort, Valentin suddenly let her go.
Ashley was puzzled.
“Did I hurt you?” Valentin looked at her nervously, his voice trembling slightly.
“No,” Ashley replied.
She thought, I’m not a porcelain doll, and I haven’t hugged you back yet.”
Valentin, afraid of hurting her, was cautious in his movements as if even a slight touch
might cause her pain. It was the first time in his life that he didn’t know where to place his
hands.
Ashley was speechless.

newfound strength to forcefully wrap her arms around Valentin as if making a forceful
assertion.
“Didn’t I tell you, I’m not in pain. Let me hug you for a while.”
Karen felt relieved when she saw this scene, thinking her daughter had the spirit Karen
had years ago.
Afterward, she subtly signaled to the others in the ward, urging everyone to quietly leave
and create space for the young couple to have a private

conversation.
They exited the room with light footsteps, gently closing the door behind. them.
Lester’s expression was strange.
“What’s wrong?” George couldn’t help asking.
Lester said, “I used to believe Valentin had charmed our adorable little. sister, but just
now, in the room, when she hugged him so passionately, I suddenly thought, maybe it’s
our little sister who has won Valentin over for herself.”
“You’re overthinking,” George replied.
Karen didn’t care about the conversation between the two brothers. She went to the side
and called Joseph to inform him that Ashley had awakened.

“Joseph, Ashley has woken up, just woke up… Yes, she really woke up. I didn’t lie to you…
Let your grandpa and sister know about Ashley waking up. Hey, calm down, don’t shout so
loud. You’re going to deafen me.”
Karen moved the phone away from her ear.
After more than two minutes, the noisy sounds from the other end of the phone finally
subsided.
Ashley still held onto Valentin’s hand as if asserting dominance, not letting go. Her gaze
seemed to be stuck to him. Her eyes were wet, and tenderness reflected in them. She
tugged at her lips and said, “Why do you look more exhausted than I do?”
“How could I?” Valentin didn’t elaborate on the two months of hardship.
Hearing her somewhat hoarse voice, one of his hands held by her, he had to use the other
to pour a glass of water.
Just as Ashley was about to reach for the water, Valentin lifted the glass, avoiding her
catch. He looked at her raised hand and said, “Keep holding it.”
Ashley blinked, and her two small hands obediently returned, tightly gripping his hand.
Valentin raised the glass to her lips, feeding her water while asking cautiously, “How long
have you been awake? Have they examined you again?”
After finishing the water, Ashley nodded. “I’ve been checked. Dr.
Ferguson examined me and said everything else is fine apart from being a bit weak.”
Valentin was relieved upon hearing this.
Suddenly, Ashley remembered something. “By the way, how is Grandpa? My mom told me
he’s sick, and that’s why you came back to Kingsley Manor.”
Valentin placed the glass back on the table, his fingertips brushing her disheveled hair.
“Nothing serious. The doctor said a couple of days of intravenous therapy, and he should
recover.”
“That’s good. But wait, weren’t you taking care of Grandpa at Kingsley Manor? Why did
you suddenly come here?”

Ashley remembered that just a moment ago, Karen hadn’t even called him to let him know
she had woken up, yet he suddenly appeared.
Valentin looked at Ashley, her lips glistening with the water she had just drunk, and
couldn’t resist leaning in for a kiss. His warm palm held her soft waist.
He withdrew slightly until her pale lips gradually turned into a full and vivid red.
With lowered eyelashes, Valentin looked at her from an incredibly close distance, his warm
breath gently brushing against her. He said, “My heart suddenly raced a bit, and I couldn’t
help but come back immediately.”
Ashley repeated his words in her mind. ‘Suddenly heart racing… Couldn’t help but come
back immediately.”
These were seemingly ordinary words, but Ashley felt her heart racing along with them.
Unable to resist, she hugged him again. “Is this what they call having a telepathic
connection? Oh, let me hug you a bit longer.”
Ashley felt it when she hugged him just now. He had become thinner. Plus, his weary, pale
complexion.
She couldn’t imagine what he had been through in these two months and how agonizingly
he had endured it.
Ashley’s eyelashes quivered subtly. She sniffed and tightened her embrace, aiming to
genuinely feel his presence and hold him closer.
In the quiet ward, the gentle sunlight poured in.
The two embraced each other in silence.
The scene was unbelievably beautiful.
Valentin was concerned that she had just woken up and couldn’t be too tired. He softly
asked, “Do you want to rest for a while?”
Ashley immediately shook her head. “No! I’ve been lying here for so long. Now I’m tired
just looking at the bed. My body feels rusty. Dr. Ferguson said I need to exercise a bit to
recover sooner. I want to get out of bed

Valentin immediately indulged her, helping her get out of bed.
Unfortunately, Ashley’s current physical condition was deplorable, and her legs could
hardly support her. In the end, she looked at Valentin with

pitiful expression. “Get me a wheelchair. I’d rather sit in a wheelchair than lie on the bed.”
Seeing her pitiful look, his heart couldn’t help but ache. Valentin quickly had a wheelchair
brought over.
Ashley sat in the wheelchair, looking around curiously. This was the first time she had ever
been seated in a wheelchair. The first time she met. Lester, he was in a wheelchair. She
didn’t expect to follow in his footsteps.
so soon.
Valentin shook his head helplessly.
Ashley asked Valentin to push her from behind, wanting to see the scenery outside.
Before they could leave the room, Andrew came over.
Upon seeing Ashley in the wheelchair, Andrew’s face instantly darkened. as he looked at
Leonard on the side. “Is this the result of your treatment for her?”
He thought, ‘She is crippled now!’
Leonard was unjustly accused. “No, no, wait! Let me explain. Ashley has just woken up,
and her body isn’t fully adjusted yet. Give her a few days of exercise, and she’ll be back to
normal. I swear!”
Ashley blinked. “I’m not crippled, why are you getting angry for no reason?”
Andrew was left speechless. He was simply worried that Ashley might be unable to move
around as freely as before, and she would surely suffer.
After saying that, Ashley suddenly noticed the pocket watch on Andrew’s
shirt.
She thought, ‘A pocket watch? Why is he wearing such a thing?”
She had never seen him wear them before.
A person like him wearing a pocket watch was a bit off.
Realizing that Ashley’s attention was fixed on Andrew, Valentin suddenly coughed lightly
as if suppressing a cough and not wanting others to hear it.
Being so close, Ashley naturally heard it

Valentin raised his hand, pressing against his heart. Suddenly feeling a bit uncomfortable”
Ashley’s attention immediately shifted back to Valentin upon hearing this. She nervously
looked at him. Where does it hurt? Why are you uncomfortable? Let Dr. Ferguson take a
