Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 190

Lester knew that George, a man of few words in their family, wouldn't say much. So he answered with a mysterious tone. "The story between Andrew and the Pliskin family is long."

Joseph, eager to know the truth, urged him. "Then make a long story short."

Lester remained silent, just smiling.

He looked at Joseph teasingly. "Why are you in such a hurry, Joe?"

Joseph was instantly annoyed.

He felt like Lester was making fun of him.

Joseph thought Lester's teasing was ruining his cool and tough image!

Seeing the conversation drifting off-topic, Ashley quickly stepped in. "Alright, alright, stop teasing him and just tell us."

Seeing Ashley's eagerness, Lester made a long story short. "Andrew is engaged to my sister."

Ashley was shocked.

It was like a bombshell had been dropped without warning.

Joseph's face showed utter shock, almost doubting what he heard. "Wait, that's too brief. Give us more details!"

Lester glanced at him and slowly began. "Although Andrew's identity is complex and his background mysterious, he is indeed my sister's fiancé. Their engagement was arranged at birth.

"But my sister got lost when she was little and was never found. So, the marriage arrangement was left unresolved and never mentioned again, as if it was implicitly canceled. But it was true."

Ashley was surprised again.

Andrew was the fiancé of the Pliskin family's younger daughter.

No wonder Andrew hoped Ashley was the lost daughter of the Pliskin family.

Ashley felt relieved she wasn't!

Luckily, the DNA test results showed she had no relation to the Pliskin family!

Jaden was surprised. He looked at Ashley and asked, "If you're the long-lost daughter of the Pliskin family, does that mean Andrew is your fiancé?"

Before Ashley could reply, Joseph, who was always super protective of his sister, jumped in to argue.

"That's nonsense! Ashley took a DNA test with the Pliskin family. She's not related to them and definitely not to Andrew. Stop making up stories!"

Joseph quickly glanced at Valentin after saying this.

Valentin frowned, surprised by the connection between Andrew and the Pliskin family's daughter.

Ashley agreed with Joseph. 'What fiancé? I have nothing to do with that!'

After chatting for a while, it was past midnight. Ashley was safe, and everyone felt relieved. They all went to their rooms to rest.

Before leaving, Bryce asked, "Should I prepare a new room for Mr. Kingsley?"

Joseph nodded, but inside, he was thrilled. 'No need for a new room. Valentin can just sleep with Ashley.

'After all, they are legally married.'

Ashley had something to ask Valentin. When everyone had gone to their rooms, she quietly pulled Valentin into her room.

Valentin raised an eyebrow slightly at her sneaky appearance. "Trying to have a secret rendezvous?"

Ashley was speechless.

She thought, 'Secret rendezvous? Oh, please.'

"I have something to ask you," said Ashley, picking up a hair tie from the dresser. She tied up her hair and asked, "Why did you suddenly come to Manditus from abroad?"

Valentin leaned casually against the dresser, watching her tie her hair. Her fingers were delicate and elegant, moving gracefully.
