Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 133

Bertha, seemingly unwilling to speak, said in a harsh tone, "There is no reason. You are my biological daughter. Doesn't it make sense that I would want to take you home after I found you?"

Taking a deep breath, Bertha looked at Ashley and suddenly said gently, "Ashley, I'm begging you. Don't ever go against Jessica and Frankie again, okay?"

Jeremy clenched his fists in displeasure.

He thought his mother had finally realized she was wrong, but it turned out that talking to Ashley so gently was just for Jessica and Frankie.

Matthew looked at Bertha disapprovingly. "You better go home and teach Jessica and Frankie to behave themselves!"

Bertha only stared at Ashley, her eyes filling with tears. "Jessica's reputation is terrible right now. You post a statement online saying you've forgiven Jessica for destroying your designs and ask the netizens to stop cursing Jessica. Okay?"

Ashley looked straight at Bertha without hiding. "Don't worry."

Bertha was instantly delighted.

However, Ashley smiled the next second and said mockingly, "Jessica's reputation will get worse."

Bertha's face turned instantly pale. She was so horrified that her voice trembled. "Ashley, what else do you want with Jessica?"

Ashley chuckled at Bertha's words. Her smile terrified Bertha.

She said, "Why don't you go back and ask Jessica what she did?"

After saying that, Ashley didn't want to see Bertha anymore and turned away without a second thought.

Bertha stared at Ashley's back as if she were looking at a decapitated criminal. Tears streamed down the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. "What did I do wrong to have such a..." Bastard daughter...

Before Bertha finished speaking, she met with cold glares from Jeremy and Matthew.

Her words of crying and cursing were instantly stuck, and she swallowed back.

Afterward, Jeremy and Matthew chased in the direction Ashley left.

Watching Jeremy and Matthew protecting Ashley so diligently, Bertha was angry and anxious, thinking, 'They're Jessica's brothers. They should defend Jessica.'

Jeremy and Matthew catch up with Ashley.

Matthew hurriedly asked, "Ashley, how have you been? Jeremy and I have been worried about you and coming to Royal Entertainment's door every day. We just want to have a meeting with you."

Jeremy said, "Ashley, can you pull my number off the blacklist? I can't contact you, and I'm really worried about you."

Ashley stopped in annoyance.

Jeremy and Matthew followed suit and stopped.

Matthew carefully pulled something out of his pocket. The singer, who used to be famous and arrogant from a very young age, had now turned into a humble brother bent on pleasing his sister.

Matthew held up the cute, chubby doll he pulled out of his pocket. "Ashley, look at this little doll.

"We went to the amusement park together when we were at Ramos Villa earlier. You saw a store that sold dolls and wanted to buy one, and I was being an asshole and wouldn't let you...

"I went to the amusement park we used to go to these days. But the man who sold the dolls stopped selling them a year ago. I asked many people before finding his house and asking him to teach me how to make a doll. I made this doll myself.

"Ashley, if you still like dolls, I'll give you one I made myself."

Ashley didn't even look at the doll and said indifferently, "You're in my way. Get out of the way."

Matthew froze for a moment, his fingers squeezing the doll steeply.

Ashley left again.

Jeremy panicked and chased after her. "Ashley, if you don't like it, Matthew won't give you that doll. Please don't be displeased, Ashley..."

Not far away, Joseph immediately frowned when he saw Jeremy and Matthew pestering Ashley.

He thought, 'What's going on? Bertha came to see Ashley, and so did Jeremy and Matthew.'
