Save Myself From Desperation by Cara Agnes novel Chapter 255

Ashley froze abruptly, and her mind went blank. She remained motionless for a long time, then blinked and rubbed her eyes with her hand.

The sight before her did not dissipate.

Valentin still opened his eyes and stared at her. His eyelashes lowered, with affection in his eyes.

"Are you up? Are you finally up?"

Ashley suspected the scene was a dream. She stared at Valentin before her blankly, then carefully stretched out a finger and poked him tentatively.

As a result, as soon as she stretched out a finger, Valentin wrapped it in the warm palm of his hand.

Valentin stared at Ashley's lovable behavior and grinned leisurely, then he said gently, "Ashley."

When he spoke, he found his voice dry, and he couldn't even make a sound.

He said hoarsely as if he hadn't spoken for a long time. "Ashley."

The moment Ashley felt Valentin's temperature and the moment she heard Valentin's hoarse voice, Ashley finally breathed a long sigh of relief and felt grounded.

Tears filled in Ashley's eyes. She hugged Valentin excitedly and said, "You finally woke up! You've been in a coma for seven days!"

But Ashley was too excited to control her strength, and she even flung him on the bed, who let out a dull groan.

Ashley thought of the injury on his back and climbed up from his arms. Then, she asked nervously, "Did I push the wound on your back? Does it hurt?"

Valentin felt some pain, but he shook his head. "It doesn't hurt."

Valentin sat up slowly, still holding her hand. "Was I in a coma for seven days?"

In his mind, he seemed to have fallen into a sleep for a long time.

Occasionally, he could hear someone calling his name and talking gently to him.

The gentle voice was like a beam of light, tearing through the darkness and saving him from his unconscious state.

"Yeah, you were in a coma for seven days, and you never woke up. We've been worried about you." Ashley checked his wound and found it intact.

She had been lying on the edge of the bed, but she then realized she slept on the bed.

"Did you put me to bed? When did you wake up?"

Ashley stared at him unblinkingly. No wonder she seemed to have dreamed of a warm embrace holding her just now.

"I just woke up not long ago." Valentin's voice was still hoarse.

When he came out of the coma, he still felt blurred, and he could only stare at the white ceiling of the ward.

After a while, he finally came back to his senses. He remembered that Ashley had almost been hit by a falling chandelier before he passed out, and although he had shielded her, he still worried about her situation.

He immediately looked around in anxiety. It was just dawn, the smell of disinfectant filled the air, and the ward was quiet.

Suddenly, he noticed a furry head next to his hand. He slowly lowered his head and looked over. He found Ashley's hair loose and her cheek pressed against his hand tightly.

His beloved Ashley fell asleep on the edge of the bed without a single garment on her back.

He immediately checked carefully and found she didn't get injured.

He then breathed a sigh of relief.

But Ashley's uncomfortable sleeping position on the edge of the bed made him frown.

He wanted to carry her to bed, but not long after he woke up, he was so weak that he could hardly exert any strength. He even managed to get up with great difficulty.
