Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 200

At Kerston's 60th anniversary celebration, the magnificent banquet hall was packed.

Ashley looked pretty smart in a white suit, walking into the hall with Pullan.

She went in further and saw Lester, who wore a silver suit jacket and black shirt. He stood out among the crowd, really attractive.

"Ashley."

He handed his red wine glass to a waiter on the side and walked over with a smile on his face.

"I didn't expect you to be here," she said in surprise and joy.

It struck her that the Pliskin Group used to partner with Kerston, the world's top race car manufacturer.

It made sense that Kerston, as host, invited Lester to their 60th anniversary celebration.

"I'm not here by myself. Dr. Pound's with me," he replied with a smile.

She wondered, 'Dr. Pound?

'A doctor with the last name 'Pound'?'

Nell's face popped into her mind.

It reminded her that to help Ryan return to the race track he loved, she made a deal with Nell, who promised to treat Ryan's leg in return.

Outside the banquet hall at this time, Ryan, who was always seen in his racing wear, rarely wore a suit today. He cut his hair in a crew cut and looked dashing.

He was a top race car driver who had won second place driving Kerston's race car.

The good performance of a racing driver was also a good advertisement to promote race cars in a way. Naturally, Ryan was invited to today's celebration.

"Jessica, follow me," he said.

"Ryan, I'd better not go in there." Jessica flinched, her eyes full of worries and fear. "What if people see me there and talk behind my back?"

Ryan felt heartbroken when he heard this.

When Jessica was still the only daughter of the Ramos family, people had the utmost respect for her.

However, she now had lost everything and ended up a laughingstock.

He thought it was all Ashley's fault.

"Don't be afraid, Jessica. I'll be there for you. I won't let anyone pick on you. What's more, the guests of this celebration are allowed to come with their family."

"Ryan, you're so considerate. I..."

She seemed moved, with tears in her eyes.

To win over the Ramos family, Jessica had been pretending to be innocent and vulnerable in front of them since she was a child.

While they were talking, Ryan suddenly saw Miranda walking over not far away.

Miranda, as an artist, was also invited to this celebration.

"Miranda!" He immediately went over to say hello.

She wore a champagne-colored dress. When she saw him, she froze for a few seconds. Frowning slightly, Miranda walked straight toward the banquet hall without stopping.

"Miranda." Ryan stretched out his hand to stop her, his eyes full of sadness. "Are you not going to talk to me anymore?"

"It's up to you."

She was as sad as Ryan. After all, she used to fall hard for him. However, seeing his face now tore her heart.

If he wasn't Ashley's brother, she and Ryan would...

However, it was what it was.

"Miranda, I've been looking for you for two years. Is Ashley more important to you than I am?"

"Yes," she answered without hesitation.

When she first met Ashley, they were both candidates in a dance competition. Miranda almost fell before going on stage. It was Ashley who helped her.

She still remembered that not long ago, she casually said that she had her eye on an expensive dress designed by Attelia, which was worth 1.8 million dollars. She couldn't afford to buy it, but Ashley brought her the dress as a gift.
