Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 189

Valentin's eyes narrowed suddenly when he saw Ashley running towards him.

He hadn't expected Ashley to run towards him so eagerly and without hesitation.

After all, Andrew was a very special suitor to her, and they shared an unusual past.

Valentin instinctively raised his hand to catch Ashley as she ran to him. He looked her over carefully from head to toe, relieved to see she wasn't hurt.

"What was that gunshot just now?" he asked, frowning slightly.

"That was me shooting a vase in the upstairs study. He tried to keep me there, but I took the chance to run out. As soon as I did, I heard him saying that I didn't want to go with you. It's a lie. Don't believe him," Ashley explained quickly, without even catching her breath.

From a distance of about fifteen steps, Andrew watched Ashley chatting with Valentin, his eyes narrowing dangerously. "Babe, why are you ignoring me?" he asked.

Hearing the word "Babe", Valentin frowned even more as if a chill was about to emanate from him.

Ashley pouted, "Get it straight. You forcefully brought me here."

She wasn't even hitting him, but he expected her to cozy up to him.

Andrew snorted softly, looking at Ashley and Valentin standing side by side with a low and gloomy tone. "Ashley, are you sure you want to go with him?"

"Of course!" Ashley answered without hesitation.

She wasn't foolish because she wouldn't stay with Andrew, who she thought was crazy.

Hearing her answer, Valentin felt touched and instinctively took her hand to protect her by his side.

Watching them hold hands, Andrew frowned as he fixed his gaze on their intertwined hands.

He brought Ashley there and hadn't even touched her, and she accused him of having dirty thoughts. Now Valentin was openly holding her hand, and she didn't even flinch.

Andrew thought to himself, 'Who's the dirty one now?'

Feeling Andrew's sharp gaze, Valentin, with a cold light in his eyes, said, "I'm holding my wife's hand. Do you have a problem with that?"

Wife?

Andrew let out a cold laugh, mocking. "So what if she's your wife? I'm her future affair!"

Ashley was speechless.

In her mind, she thought, 'You motherfucker, here we go again!'

Hearing his words, Andrew's subordinates were shocked and looked at him in disbelief.

They thought to themselves, 'Affair partner?

'Mr. Banks, when have you become like this?

'This is shocking!'

Andrew swept his gaze dangerously across the room. "This is mine and my Babe's romantic matter. You wouldn't understand! If anyone dares to stare, I'll make them blind."

His subordinates immediately averted their eyes, focusing only on themselves.

They all thought to themselves, 'Romantic matter?

'This is the first time we've ever seen this kind of thing!'

After speaking, Andrew glanced at his watch. "Ashley, it's past midnight. Haven't you remembered what you promised me?"

Ashley blinked, looking confused.

She had no recollection of such a thing.

To be honest, she was starting to doubt Andrew. His actions were always unpredictable and mysterious, and she wondered if he was just making things up to trick her.

Andrew gave a sinister smile but said nothing more. However, there was a hint of loneliness in his charming eyes.

He looked at the dark night sky and gestured for his men to put away their guns.
