Save Myself from Desperation

Night fell. Ashley finished showering and lay on the bed. She glanced at the blurry figure of Valentin in the bathroom, wondering where he would take her tomorrow.

Suddenly, her phone made a sound, indicating she had received a

message.

She picked it up and saw that it was from Andrew.

[Baby, your birthday is coming soon.]

Ashley frowned, ignored the message, and turned off her phone.

But the screen lit up again as he quickly sent another message.

[Although you've fallen for the new man and heartlessly forgotten my birthday, | still remember yours very clearly.] Ashley thought, ‘What nonsense is he talking about? And why am | accused of being heartless?’ [Baby, do you want a birthday gift that will be unforgettable for the rest of your life?]

Upon seeing this message, Ashley was startled.

Unforgettable for the rest of her life?

And there was a mischievous emoji at the end.

Knowing Andrew’s personality, he must be planning something.

Ashley quickly replied: [I don’t want your birthday gift! Don’t mess wi me!]

Andrew texted: [Baby, you finally replied.]

Grinding her teeth, Ashley angrily replied: [Andrew, | told you | don’t want your gift! | don’t want anything!] Andrew said: [Maybe you'll like it?]

Ashley firmly refused. [Impossible!!!]

There was no way she would like his gift!

Andrew texted: [Then give it a try.]

Ashley was speechless.

She threw her phone onto the bed and didn’t want to deal with him anymore.

After a while, Valentin went out, holding a white towel to dry his hair. Seeing her lying on the bed looking upset, he couldn’t help but ask, “What's wrong?”

Not wanting to hide anything from him, Ashley immediately got up from the bed. Her hair was slightly messy from being rubbed against it. “I hope you won't get mad at what I’m about to say.”

Valentin paused in drying his hair. It seemed like it wasn’t good news.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, put the towel aside, and walked to the edge of the bed. He leaned over, supporting himself with hands on either side of her body, and looked at her closely. “Go ahead, tell me.”

Having just showered, his body emitted a clean and refreshing scent. Ashley enjoyed his scent first and poked him, saying, “First, promise me that you won't get angry.”

He couldn't help but smile and lightly scraped her nose with his index finger. “Okay, baby, | promise not to get angry. Is that alright?”

Ashley heaved a sigh of relief. She took her own phone and showed him the chat history with Andrew. She kept a close watch on his facial expression.

After he finished reading, Ashley immediately said, “You said you wouldn't get angry!” While looking at the chat history, Valentin’s expression became serious.

He calmly put down the phone. When he looked back at Ashley, his serious expression softened, and his eyes showed deep affection. “Ashley, I’m glad you chose to tell me this.”

She could have withheld this information from him, keeping it a secret.

But now that she opened up and told him everything, without any concealment, how could he possibly be angry? As for the fact that Andrew liked her and wanted to send her a birthday

gift, that was a matter between him and Andrew to resolve.

Ashley blinked her eyes and sweetly reached out to hug him. “I knew you are the best!” After speaking it out, she felt a sense of relief and lightness in her heart.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

As for Andrew's so-called unforgettable birthday gift, she definitely wouldn't accept it. Valentin held Ashley in his arms and gently rubbed her soft hair.

However, a hint of hatred appeared in his eyes when he thought of Andrew.

The next morning, after Ashley finished breakfast, she circled around Valentin. Curiosity overwhelmed her. “Where are you taking me today? It’s already time. Can you please tell me?”

Valentin’s right hand was in his pocket, and he touched the small square box, his gaze becoming deep.

Arare nervousness appeared on his usually calm face.
