Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 112

Valentin walked up to her and took out his phone.

Ashley looked over and saw the photo of them taken by a passer-by at the amusement park.

Several people commented below the photo.

[Am I the only one who feels the relationship between them is special?]

[Speaking of which, this is the first time Valentin has been photographed with a woman. I wonder if he has affairs with other women in private. He's so rich and must have kept many girls, right?]

Valentin pointed to the second comment and said to Ashley, "No."

Ashley was embarrassed for a moment.

She touched her ears and said in a low voice, "You don't need to explain this to me. I won't make a fuss about it."

Valentin glanced at her. "What if I want to make a fuss?"

Before Ashley could react, he grabbed her waist and pulled her into his arms.

Ashley was stunned, surrounded by his clear and pleasant fragrance.

She buried her head on his chest and could clearly feel his strong heartbeat through his thin shirt.

Ashley came to her senses and tried to push him away. "Who taught you this? I'll beat you up if you do this again."

Valentin didn't let go of her and rubbed his chin against the top of her soft hair. He chuckled and said, "It was you who taught me."

Ashley was confused. "Stop slandering me!"

He leaned closer to her with smiling eyes, his warm breath brushing against her ears. "Don't you remember you said you liked hugging me when you were a kid?"

Ashley was stupefied again.

She wondered, 'Did I say that?'

Ashley might have said it, but she would never admit it.

"I said it in childhood. Don't take it seriously."

"Why?" Valentin finally loosened his grip, rubbed her head, and said in a magnetic and sultry voice, "You said you would protect me back then, and you're protecting me now, aren't you?"

Ashley averted his gaze, puffed her cheeks, and said stubbornly, "It's because I don't like Frankie."

Valentin chuckled and teased, "Alright, alright. You have no intention of protecting me at all."

Ashley's earlobes blushed. She glared at him with watery eyes and pushed him out. "It's very late. You should go back to bed. Don't stay in my room."

Valentin glanced at her hand and asked meaningfully, "Ashley, you don't want to tie me up today?"

Ashley widened her eyes, shocked by his request. "Suit yourself!"

After pushing him out of the room, Ashley immediately took her phone and sent a message to Joseph.

[Have you slept yet?]

Joseph replied instantly: [No, no! It's still early!]

Ashley immediately typed. [What's going on with those birthday gifts you gave Valentin?]

She was so embarrassed when she opened the gift at that time.

Joseph burst into laughter. [Ashley, you know everything?]

He continued typing. [In fact, I knew that Valentin would let you see it sooner or later.]

Even if Valentin didn't want Ashley to know about those birthday gifts, he would surely compromise and agree to Ashley's requests if she insisted on asking for the answer.

Joseph knew Valentin always had no principle when it came to Ashley.

Ashley was helpless. [Don't give such dirty gifts in the future.]

Joseph still didn't give in. [How come? I wish you a happy sexual life. It's my sincere wishes!]

Ashley sent: [Alright. Whatever.]

Joseph replied: [Ashley, why are you up so late? It's not good for your health.]
