Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 188

Andrew felt displeased with Ashley's expectations. He narrowed his eyes and said in gloom, "Are you looking forward to meeting Valentin?"

"If I don't expect Valentin to come, should I expect to be forced to stay here and recall the past? I even suspect you lied to me on purpose."

After speaking, Ashley ran out of the living room.

Andrew frowned in anger.

As Ashley ran past him, he suddenly stretched out his hand and clamped her soft wrist.

He said defiantly, "Do you want to make another bet?"

"Bet on what?" Ashley instantly got alert.

"Just bet," Valentin paused for a while, raised his eyebrow, and smiled meaningfully, "Bet if Valentin can get you out of here."

Ashley frowned and said coldly, "Stop picking on him, Andrew."

"Pick on him?" Andrew sneered, grabbing Ashley's wrist with one hand, and tapping his temple with the other. Then, he added, "I have a bad memory. I even forgot to give you today's greeting gift."

Ashley looked serious and refused indifferently. "I don't want it."

Andrew was cunning and always behaved crazily with an abnormal mind, so Ashley wouldn't accept his gift.

But Andrew ignored Ashley's refusal and ordered the subordinate on the side, "Take the gift here."

Then, he took Ashley to the study on the second floor.

When they entered the study, Ashley broke free from Andrew's grasp. At this time, the subordinate came over with a rectangular gift box and handed it to Ashley with both hands.

Ashley stood still and looked up at Andrew, who was standing by the window. "I told you I don't want it."

Andrew tilted his head and smiled perversely, "If you don't take it, he will have to keep holding it."

Andrew mentioned the subordinate who delivered the gift.

Ashley frowned. She didn't want to trouble others, so she took the gift with reluctance.

The subordinate finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside with his head down respectfully.

Ashley opened the box and found a silver pistol inside, which was not a toy but a real gun full of bullets in it.

Ashley immediately recognized the model of the pistol. Although it was rare, it performed well and was commonly used by mercenaries.

Ashley sneered.

She found his gift as abnormal as himself.

"Why did you give it to me?" Ashley looked at Andrew speechlessly.

"Don't you like it?"

"Sort of." Ashley was good at shooting and interested in firearms, but she couldn't bring the real pistol on board.

At this moment, a dazzling light flashed through the glass window of the study. Under the darkness, the light came closer and closer, and it looked like a car coming from a distance.

Ashley was moved, and her heart beating violently. She seemed to sense something and ran to the window to look out.

One black car after another drove towards the villa and surrounded it. As the cars pulled up, the burly bodyguards in black got out and slowly approached the villa.

As soon as these bodyguards got out of the cars, they pointed their guns in the direction of the villa.

Seeing this situation, Andrew's subordinates, who were patrolling near the villa, immediately became vigilant. They all gathered together and blocked before the villa. They also pointed their guns at the bodyguards before them.

The two parties formed a confrontation.

In the tense and dangerous situation, the door of the black car parked in the middle slowly opened, and the noble Valentin showed up out of the car.

In the dark night, the lights of several cars merged together.

Valentin leaned over and got out of the car, standing under the backlight. His face was blurred, and only the outline of his side could be discerned.

But Ashley on the second floor recognized him at a glance, and she knew it was Valentin.

Valentin indeed came there to save her.

Ashley froze for a moment. She turned around and wanted to run out.

But the subordinate standing aside immediately raised his hands and blocked Ashley's way.

Ashley frowned, stopped, and looked at Andrew aside. "Enough is enough."

"Do you still remember the bet just now, Ashley?" Andrew sneered coldly, "I bet Valentin can't take you away from here."

After speaking, he forcefully dragged Ashley back to the window and had her face out.

Ashley struggled subconsciously.

But Andrew stood behind Ashley as if hugging her from behind. He held her left hand with one hand, picked up the silver pistol with the other hand, and placed it in the palm of Ashley's right hand.

Then, Andrew held Ashley's right hand with the gun from behind as if teaching her how to shoot.

However, he slowly raised the muzzle and pointed it in Valentin's direction outside the villa.
