Save Myself from Desperation

After having dinner with Zain in the evening, Joseph stayed at Kingsley Manor, and Ashley and Valentin returned to Kingsley Villa.

Ashley walked into Kingsley Villa’s living room and sat on the couch. She hadn't even rested for a moment when she received a call from Simon Hunt, her grandfather's lifetime friend.

Simon knew that Ashley could paint and that Ashley was the mysterious female painter, Aurora.

“Ashley. I’m organizing a painting exhibition in the next few days, not a solo exhibition, but a comprehensive one, showing landscape oil paintings by many famous artists. | would love to invite you to participate!” Simon warmly invited.

Ashley thought that Simon was a good friend of her grandfather’s when he was alive and that Simon was a true lover of paintings, so she agreed to the invitation.

The next morning, Ashley planned to go back to where her grandparents used to live.

The paintings she painted were placed in her previous home.

Ashley spoke to Valentin and got ready to head out.

Valentin, however, stood up. “I'll accompany you.”

He was worried that if she went back alone, she would be prone to think of her deceased grandparents and fall into sadness.

“Don't you have to go to the company today?” Ashley didn’t want to interfere with his work. “You don’t have to stay with me. I’m fine.”

“It's just work. How can it be more important than you? After Valentin finished speaking, he called Tom and asked him to cancel what he could in today’s schedule and postpone what he couldn't

Ashley gently bit her lower lip, her heart indescribably soft.

Ashley had no choice but to go out with him.

Her grandfather sometimes moved to the country when he got excited and wanted to farm Chapter 230

But he also had plenty of places to stay in the city.

The residences were vacant, but Ashley hired someone to clean them regularly.

Ashley led Valentin to a suburban villa and pushed the door in. The flowers in the yard were in full bloom. Only the lack of care had caused a layer of petals and fallen leaves to accumulate on the ground.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Opening the door to the living room, they went in. The house was still bright and clean because the cleaners were hired to clean it regularly, so no dust had accumulated.

The house was furnished exactly as it had been when her grandparents were alive and hadn’t been moved one bit.

Ashley’s eyes were sore as she watched these memorized scenes, and a hidden wave of rolling tears appeared in the bottom of her eyes.

It was as if the old days of living with her grandparents floated before her eyes, like a slide movie, rewinding scene by scene, from the present scene by scene back to when she was a child and when she was first adopted from the orphanage by her grandparents.

At that time, Ashley had no parents or relatives.

But she had grandparents and Valentin...

She had also had the warmest of kinship...

Suddenly, her right hand fell into a warm palm. Ashley turned her head in a daze and met Valentin’s deep eyes.

The beautiful boy who had grown up with her had traveled through time and grown into his current handsome, dignified form. After so many things, the people closest to her as a child returned to her...

Ashley blinked lightly, and the tears in her eyes dissipated. Her delicate eyebrows slowly revealed a charming smile. “I suddenly realized that are exceptionally handsome.”

Valentin was stunned. you

It took Valentin several seconds to react to her sudden remark, raising his eyebrows lazily and saying, “Ashley, so all those compliments you gave me yesterday were perfunctory.”

09.01 Chapter 230 Ashley was at a loss for words.

“| take back what | just said. Just pretend | didn’t say it.” Ashley pointed to the couch next to her. “Make yourself comfortable. I'll pack up the painting.”

The paintings she painted in the past were all framed, so she rolled them up and put them in a box.

After packing up the paintings, Ashley delivered them to Simon, and they would be displayed at the show when the time came. Back at Kingsley Villa, Ashley drew the painting of a starry sky she’d promised Joseph earlier and called him to pick it up. Joseph was having a good time at the bar when he got the call and immediately rushed over.

Joseph was excited to see the finished painting. “Wow, Ashley, your painting of a starry sky is beautifull”

Ashley sat on the couch and snacked lazily. “It’s good that you know.”

“The shining stars are too charming! | love it so much!” Joseph hastily took out his cell phone and took dozens of photos from various angles for posting on Twitter.

He even labeled it as being drawn by “Aurora” herself.

Joseph had quite a few followers on his Twitter account, and they we instantly shocked to see the stunning painting of a starry sky and the name Aurora.

[Really? Did Aurora really draw this painting?]

[As far as | know, Aurora only paints elegant landscape oil paintings and is a superb female artist. But | didn’t think she could paint a starry sky so stunningly.]

[I compared the drawing styles. It seems like Aurora really drew it!]

[Please, handsome Joseph, tell me how you got Aurora to paint for you. Have you met Aurora in person? What does she look like?]

Joseph had fun looking at the comment section. He immediately replied when he saw the comment complimenting him on his handsomeness.

[Aurora looks a bit like Ashley. ..]

The netizens were instantly confused, thinking, ‘Looks a bit like Ashley?”

At noon, the highly prestigious Skyward Art Exhibition in Zyrrinthia officially announced that Aurora, the famous and mysterious female. painter, had been invited to attend the exhibition three days later.

In addition to Aurora, the Skyward Art Exhibition invited many other famous painters, which could be regarded as a great event in the painting world.

And among those invited painters, someone pointedly spotted Cara. [Did you guys see that? Cara’s been invited to the exhibition, too!]

[Wow, Cara is excellent! Skyward Art Exhibition is very famous, and those who can be invited to it are the top masters in landscape oil painting. I’m afraid she’s the youngest girl invited!]

[I have to admit that Cara is good at drawing. She must have had years of practice, and her drawing style is somewhat similar to Aurora’s].

[Wait a minute. Joseph said Aurora looks a bit like Ashley, and Cara’s eyebrows also look like Ashley’s. Could Aurora be Cara?]
