Save Myself From Desperation by Cara Agnes novel Chapter 329

Ashley blinked, her delicate eyelashes fluttering lightly. "There's no such thing as abandoning. We were friends, to begin with."

Andrew seemed to chuckle upon hearing this.

He stared at Ashley relentlessly, his gaze forceful and filled with aggression.

"Ashley, who wants to be friends with you?"

He had no intention of being just her friend.

Ashley was taken aback, almost exploding in anger. She said sternly, "Andrew, let me make it clear to you. I don't like you, not now, not ever."

He sneered, disdain in his voice, "What's there to like about Valentin?"

Ashley blurted out, "Everything of him is worth liking."

The darkness in Andrew's eyes deepened.

Unfazed, Ashley looked directly at him.

"Valentin and I grew up together. No one gets me like he does, and no one treats me better than him. When I was at my lowest point after leaving the Ramos family, Valentin showed up and welcomed me into his world. He always puts me in the most important place in his heart, all the time. Why wouldn't I like him?"

The room suddenly fell silent as Ashley's words fell, quiet enough to hear their faint breaths.

Andrew's eyes narrowed slightly, with a half-smiling expression. "It seems like I'll have to continue being the third wheel."

'You what?' Ashley was infuriated.

Why wouldn't he get this through?

Glancing around, she grabbed a nearby pillow and threw it at him.

Andrew quickly caught it, his gaze shifting to the wound on her waist. "Can't you catch a break even when you're hurt? If your wound break and start bleeding, just wait and see how I deal with you."

Ashley was speechless. There was no way she could like him.

Andrew put the pillow down, curled his lips, and uttered slowly in a low tone, "Why the anger? Once you're all patched up, go ahead and hurl anything you like my way."

Ashley ignored him.

"I don't need you to take care of me." Ashley rejected him with disdain.

Andrew tilted his head slightly, his laughter evil yet mischievous. "Do you know where you are? Do you know how to get back?"

Ashley didn't answer that, and then she became serious. "By the way, you mentioned doing a DNA test for me and the Pliskin family. In fact, I've arranged to meet with Mr. and Mrs. Pliskin tomorrow."

Andrew said, "I know."

"You even know about this?" Ashley was surprised.

At this moment, an immediate knocking on the door was heard, indicating some emergency. Due to the respect and fear for Andrew, the person outside dared not barge in.

Andrew instructed the person to come in, and only then did he enter.

Ashley recognized him as one of Andrew's trusted subordinates, Colby Jaylan. She was pretty familiar with him, and their relationship was good.

Colby glanced at Ashley, then with a look of facing a formidable enemy, he turned to Andrew and said, "Mr. Banks, Valentin is here!"
