Save Myself From Desperation novel Chapter 328

Andrew grabbed a handful of diamonds from the drawer and said in a leisurely tone, "Your birthday is just around the corner."

Ashley was puzzled. "What does my birthday have to do with DNA testing?"

Andrew played with the diamonds in his hand, finding them rather uninteresting. He clicked his tongue and threw them back into the drawer without a trace of pity.

Getting closer to Ashley was way more enjoyable for him.

Like a wild beast fixated on its prey, Andrew approached Ashley with a hint of seduction. "I promised to give my precious one an unforgettable and deeply engraved birthday gift."

Ashley recoiled as if shocked and quickly distanced herself from him.

She squinted and provocatively said, "Deeply engraved? Sure, I love watching people break big stones with their chests. If the notorious king of the underworld personally demonstrate this for me, I guarantee it will be unforgettable."

Andrew was caught off guard by her answer.

But then he nonchalantly smiled, his eyes mischievous, "You like that, huh? Alright, I'll learn it tomorrow. I'll break them for you on your birthday."

Ashley retorted, "Back off. I've already told you I don't want your birthday gift."

"Don't brush it off so quick. I promise you'll love it."

Ashley twitched at the corner of her mouth, thinking, 'Love it? How could I possibly love your birthday gift?'

However, a sly glint appeared in her eyes. "Speaking of birthday gifts, is it related to DNA testing? Alright, spill it. Who am I getting tested with?"

With a sly smile, Andrew curled a strand of her loose hair around his finger. "See? Now you're interested."

Ashley glared at him and pulled her hair back. "Are you going to tell me or not? Who am I getting tested with?"

"Of course, it's with..." Andrew said in a light tone, "the Pliskin family."

But this seemingly light tone shocked Ashley.

"The Pliskin family? I'm getting a DNA test with them? Do you think I'm related to them in any way?"

As Ashley spoke, she suddenly remembered Valentin's question after proposing. "Ashley, have you ever considered that you might have some connection with the Pliskin family?"

Recalling Valentin's question, Ashley's eyes widened in surprise. "Valentin asked me the same thing before. He thought I might be related to the Pliskin family. If he asked that, he must have found something. Wow, my husband is truly amazing!"

Andrew was speechless. His face remained in the shadows in the dimly lit room, but his voice carried a dangerous edge.

"Darling, it was me telling you of getting the DNA test done with the Pliskin family. And you're praising Valentin?"

She even called Valentin her husband. She really knew how to infuriate him.

Ashley snorted, ignoring his ominous tone, eager to return to Valentin.

Now Joseph must know she was missing, and he would definitely inform Valentin immediately. She needed to return quickly to avoid causing worry.

Ashley lifted the blanket and got out of bed. However, as she stepped down, she accidentally pulled at the wound on her side, causing her to gasp in pain.

Andrew's brows furrowed, and his expression turned grim. "Ashley, is this the life you want? When we were together, did I ever let you get hurt?"

Ashley sternly corrected. "Andrew, please watch your words. I've never been with you."

Andrew sneered.

He clicked on all the lights in the room and pressed Ashley to sit on the edge of the bed. He bent down to look at the wound on her waist and opened up the bandage deliberately tied into a bow.

Fortunately, the bandage showed no bloodstains, indicating that the wound had not ruptured.

Ashley felt a headache just looking at that bow, thinking it must have been tied by that jerk, Andrew, with his twisted sense of humor.
