Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 257

Hearing Ashley's words, Valentin still stayed calm, but his pupils trembled slightly.

He felt strangely nervous, with mixed emotions in his eyes. He stared at Ashley closely all the time and said magnetically, "Hence, will you reply to me now?"

Ashley raised her chin proudly. "I'll tell you after you've had breakfast."

Valentin's eyebrows rose imperceptibly. He was a little surprised, then lowered his head, chuckled, and said helplessly and indulgently, "Don't bully me, Ashley."

His tone sounded a little aggrieved and pitiful.

Ashley instantly got angry. "I never bullied you."

Valentin causally glanced at the dishes on the table, raised his eyelids, and looked at her delicate face. "I'm not in the mood for breakfast."

Ashley was speechless.

"In that case, you must have the breakfast, either."

He just woke up and needed breakfast to recharge.

Moreover, Ashley needed several minutes to get prepared.

In the series she had watched before, a girl confessed to a boy in a sea of pink flowers. Ashley found it cliche but extremely romantic.

It would be monotonous for her to confess to Valentin in the deserted ward.

But she wouldn't be able to improvise the flowers.

Ashley recalled other series she had watched. A boy confessed to a girl in a hot air balloon, but they almost fell to their deaths.

But Ashley found the hot air balloon interesting.

She intended to improvise a hot air balloon.

But she immediately dismissed the idea.

Valentin was too delicate and pale now, and Ashley decided not to bother anymore.

Ashley glanced at the deserted ward and then at the delicate Valentin. She was lost in thought and anxious.

When she found Valentin refused the breakfast, she felt more anxious.

"Have your breakfast now. Why are you staring at me?"

Valentin looked at her leisurely and raised his eyebrows slightly. "What are you thinking about, Ashley?"

"It's none of your business!" Ashley made an excuse causally and added, "I wondered what to do if you didn't wake up today."

Hearing this, Valentin indeed thought about it seriously.

After speaking, Ashley regretted it. She smacked her mouth and blinked her eyes. "I made that up. I'm sure you'll wake up."

Valentin still looked pale. His eyes blushed due to illness. Seeing Ashley's lovely look, he couldn't help but chuckle and then smile. His smile was like a ray of warm sunshine that could melt all the cold.

Ashley was used to his dashing appearance before, but she couldn't help but feel touched now.

Valentin's voice sounded hoarse, with a bit of sexuality for no reason. "I figured it out. It doesn't matter if I can't wake up."

Ashley frowned and disliked the subject.

Valentin spoke slowly, with the utmost rationality.

"You are my wife and the first heir. If I die, you can inherit all my property and power. In that case, you can live a pampered life and do whatever you want, so I can rest assured."

When Valentin finished speaking, Ashley's eyes widened in shock. She even couldn't utter a word for a moment. "Why did you consider about it?"

Valentin grinned as if talking about something completely normal. "It's my responsibility to consider it for you."

Valentin's words echoed in Ashley's ears.

But she didn't think so.

Ashley looked at him with tearful eyes. Her heart rate quickened, so did her breathing rate, and she even raised her voice. "After all you've done for me, don't you want to be there for me all the time?"
