Save Myself from Desperation

Ashley finished speaking and felt a bit embarrassed. She had never had this kind of lifetime commitment conversation with Valentin before. She stared at Valentin’s face, wanting to see his reaction.

But Valentin stood there motionless as if he had lost his soul. There was no response from him, not even a blink of an eye. ‘What’s wrong?” Ashley scratched her head in confusion.

After hearing what Ashley said, Valentin felt as if a bright white light exploded in front of him. His rationality shattered. His heart seemed to stop beating.

Only Ashley’s words echoed in his ears. “Let's celebrate future anniversaries together, like the second anniversary, third anniversary, and tenth anniversary.”

Valentin had prepared himself for all the possible replies that Ashley might give him. He had thought about Ashley rejecting his pursuit and divorcing him.

He had thought about Ashley not making a decision and considering further. He had even thought about Ashley compromising and trying to be with him after he got hurt.

He had considered all possibilities except for this kind of answer. Ashley talked about the future, such a distant future.

She mentioned the tenth anniversary.

She placed him, Valentin, in her future.

Seeing Valentin’s lack of reaction, Ashley waved her hand in front of his eyes. Still, there was no response, and Ashley grew anxious.

“Are you okay? Why aren’t you moving?”

‘He couldn't have fainted again, could he?

‘Can someone faint with their eyes open?’ she thought.

“Don’t scare me.” Ashley nervously hugged him, even considering calling

“Cal

down,” Ashley immediately said, then playfully touched the back of his hand. “I’m serious. | wasn’t joking.” Valentin glanced at the hand that was touched.

The room fell silent for a few seconds.

Ashley looked up, and her eyes were as clear as a sky that had just rained. She put aside her playful smile and looked at Valentin with seriousness and focus.

“During the days you were unconscious, | learned a lot of things | didn’t know before, like this bracelet on my wrist. You specially picked it for me, saying it could bring me good luck.

“Valentin, you treat me so well. You like me so much. But it seems | don’t. like you as much, which is unfair.” “| don’t want fairness.” Valentin’s voice was low and husky as he gazed at her quietly.

As long as Ashley stayed by his side, he would be satisfied.

He didn’t dare to ask for more.

“That’s not right.” Ashley said seriously, “Since I've decided to be with you, | should treat you well. | can’t just make you do all the giving.”

Ashley took a deep breath and thought carefully. She looked at Valentin with sincerity.

“Valentin, | will try my best to love you in the future, to love you as you love me.

“| will also try my best to treat you well, just as you treat me well.”

In an instant, Valentin’s heart began to beat uncontrollably.

The bright sunlight shone through the glass, casting a dazzling light Ashley. Her skin was as smooth as silk. She earnestly

promised to try t love him and treat him well. At this moment, she was like a beautiful re in the Garden of Eden, captivating his every thought.

He was willing to dedicate everything to her.

Valentin passionately kissed Ashley’s rosy, moist lips with a dominant, aggressive force that couldn’t be refused. 18.50

Ashley was tightly embraced by Valentin, feeling a slight pain on her lips.

He had never kissed her so passionately and intensely before.

Ashley’s fingers involuntarily curled up, unsure whether to push him. away or hold him tight.

But her body made the choice for her. She tightly held onto Valentin’s clothes, tilting her head back as if offering herself as a sacrifice, letting him take whatever he wanted.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

The sunlight gradually slanted. Tiny specks of dust danced lightly like mischievous elves in the sunlight.

Ashley picked up a mirror and looked at her mouth. Her lips were red and swollen, almost bitten by him. It troubled her how she would face other people.

She glared fiercely at the culprit beside her, grinding her teeth in anger. Suddenly, she smiled mischievously and asked, “Is it still possible for me to divorce you now, Valentin?”

Valentin raised an eyebrow. “No, Ashley, it’s too late for that.”

Ashley threw the mirror aside and deliberately asked, “What if | had asked for a divorce just now? What would you do?” Valentin said, “Then | would consider staying unconscious forever and never waking up.”

Ashley realized that Valentin truly understood her weak point.

Valentin no longer teased her. He took her hand and said gently, “Ash it’s not easy for us to get a divorce.”

Ashley asked, “Why?”

She guessed it was because the assets weren't easy to divide.

Valentin lightly touched her fingers, intertwining them, and looked down at her.

“Whether you want to love me or leave me is not the same thing.

“In other words, even if you want a divorce, | wouldn’t agree.”
