Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 130

When Ashley heard Bertha's name, she paused slightly. A sense of fierce could be witnessed from her eyes, but it soon faded, and she returned to calm.

"I won't meet her. Tell the receptionist to kick her out."

Ashley replied calmly.

Laura naturally understood Ashley's attitude toward Bertha and conveyed Ashley's words to the receptionist.

In the lobby on the first floor, Bertha's red lips slightly widened after hearing the receptionist's words, unable to accept them.

She didn't expect Ashley to refuse to meet her.

As Ashley's mother and family, she took the initiative to look for Ashley, but Ashley refused to meet her.

Bertha immediately got furious and looked gloomy. She gritted her teeth and walked out of Royal Entertainment in high heels.

Bertha didn't go far when she noticed a supermarket nearby. She happened to have her ID with her, so she went to the supermarket to get a new SIM card.

Then, Bertha called Ashley with this new number.

Ashley soon answered the phone with a polite and distant tone. "May I ask who is calling?"

Bertha suppressed her anger and shouted in a low voice, "How dare you refuse to meet me, Ashley?"

Before she finished speaking, Ashley hung up the phone directly.

Bertha froze for a while and took the phone off her ear in disbelief. When she found the hung-up call, she lost her temper, and even her face twisted.

Bertha didn't give up and called Ashley with this new number again.

But she found Ashley had blocked the new number the next moment.

She even couldn't believe it.

Bertha couldn't catch her breath and almost fainted. She felt a choking sensation in her chest and threw the phone back into her bag with a sullen expression.

Bertha felt angry and also felt inexplicably distressed.

She wondered why her relationship with Ashley fell into distance.

Bertha held her handbag and looked up at Royal Entertainment. She hesitated for a while before deciding to wait for Ashley here.

She didn't think Ashley could stay in the company forever.

As long as Ashley came out of the company, she could meet her.

*****

In Laura's office, she glanced at Ashley on the couch and felt relieved when she found Ashley looked normal and didn't be affected by Bertha.

In Laura's view, Bertha didn't deserve to be Ashley's mother.

At this time, the office door was pushed open.

Joseph ran in with high spirits. "Thank you very much this time, Ashley. I dealt with Sean under your support."

Joseph found Laura here, so he hid the real relationship between him and Ashley.

Ashley raised her eyebrows and grinned brightly, which looked energetic. "Has the contract with Sean been signed?"

Joseph made a gesture and replied, "Yep! We had already signed the contract. I won't fear Frankie will get in the way anymore. Thank you for your support, Ashley. You're awesome."

After Joseph finished speaking, Jaden walked in and patted Joseph on the shoulder. "Aren't you forgetting something?"

Jaden didn't belong to Royal Entertainment, and he just followed Ashley to visit the company.

Joseph rolled his eyes speechlessly. "What does it have to do with you? What are you asking for?"

Jaden sighed, "As the boss of Glory Youveile, I give away Dimi for free. Shouldn't you express your gratitude toward me?"

Joseph sneered and deliberately joked with him. "I won't satisfy you. What can you do with me?"

Jaden seemed leisurely, looked at Ashley on the couch, and asked with a smile, "Did he ignore my efforts on purpose, darling?"

Before Ashley could speak, Joseph, who always doted on Ashley, frowned. He found the appellation too intimate.
