Save Myself from Desperation

Joseph glanced at the photo and clicked his tongue. “Isn’t this Charlie?”

Charlie was Ashley’s second brother. Joseph was surprised that Cara knew him. Ashley took a quick look and expressionlessly averted her gaze.

“Ashley, are you okay?” Joseph observed her expression and cautiously inquired. Ashley chuckled softly, “I’m not that fragile. Don’t worry about me. I’m fine.”

If it always weighed on her heart whenever she encountered someone from the Ramos family, she was simply looking for trouble for herself.

“That’s good!” Joseph patted his chest. Just as he was about to say. something, he suddenly saw Valentin hastily walking into the living. room, even running to Ashley without caring about his image.

Joseph was stunned. “Valentin, why are you in such a hurry? What happened?”

Valentin swiftly reached Ashley before she could react.

Seeing the phone in her hand, his brows furrowed, a rare hint of panic in his eyes, and his voice low. “It’s fake, it’s not me.” After a moment of contemplation, Ashley understood.

He was explaining that the rumor had nothing to do with him and that the man in the photo wasn’t him.

“| know.” Ashley blinked her beautiful eyes and spoke softly. “I know it’s not you.”

Upon hearing her words, Valentin’s expression eased a bit, relieved that she didn’t misunderstand.

Suddenly, Joseph burst into laughter.

“Why are you laughing?” Ashley looked at him, puzzled.

“Ashley.” Joseph laughed meaningfully. “Except for when Andrew took you away, Valentin has never been in such a hurry. He’s afraid of being misunderstood by you. All his urgency is related to you.”

“Yeah, Valentin!” Joseph grinned, reliving the moment. “Ashley recognized it wasn’t you right away and even threw in a compliment about your killer physique!”

Ashley was speechless.

She glared threateningly at Joseph.

Looking confused, Joseph scratched his head. “I didn’t say anything wrong. You just said Valentin has a good physique!” Ashley really wanted to hit him now.

Turning her head, she met Valentin’s teasing gaze.

Ashley clenched her fist and glared at Joseph again.

Seeing Ashley about to lose her temper, Joseph immediately bolted. “Well, it’s getting late. | have to hurry home! No need to see me off, not need to see me off!”

As his voice faded away, he disappeared in seconds.

Now, only Ashley and Valentin were in the living room.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

She remembered his flustered appearance and cleared her throat. “You don’t need to be in such a hurry, and Cara just clarified the rumors on Twitter.”

Valentin loosened his tie, his voice low and attractive. “I don’t want you to misunderstand.”

When he saw this rumor at the office, he immediately dropped his work and rushed back, not wanting Ashley to think he had relations with other

women. “When did you see it?” he asked.

“About half an hour ago,” Ashley walked to the sofa and sat down, casually answering, “Joseph said he saw rumors about you online, so | took a look.”
