Save Myself From Desperation by Cara Agnes novel Chapter 333

Once they returned to Kilos City, the night was fading, and dawn was approaching.

In the living room of Kingsley Villa, Joseph remained mentally on high alert, even though he hadn't slept all night. He didn't feel sleepy at all at the moment, and he looked up to see that Valentin hadn't taken his hands off Ashley the whole way back from Samniss City. He thought, 'Valentin is so good to Ashley.'

Not only was Joseph not sleepy, but he was getting more and more energized by the affection between the two.

However, he still asked uneasily, "Valentin, what time is Ashley scheduled to meet with the Pliskin family? Is she okay with the injury she's got? Should we push the meeting back a bit?"

Valentin looked at Ashley. "Do you want to push it back?"

With his personal thoughts, he wanted to push it back a bit so Ashley could get better first. No matter how easy she made it sound, her injury was from a dagger, after all. And a fierce kidnapper was certainly powerful.

But given his understanding of Ashley, she certainly didn't want to push it back.

So, on the way back, he didn't even take the liberty of helping her push the meeting backward.

Sure enough, Ashley quickly shook her head and said simply, "It's fine. There's no need to push it back. Let's just meet at the agreed upon time."

Joseph nodded. "Okay. Valentin's with you anyway, and he'll be sure to take good care of you. What time are you meeting with the Pliskin family?"

Ashley answered, "Ten o'clock in the morning."

Joseph glanced at the clock over four hours away from ten o'clock and excitedly said, "Let me come with you then!"

He wasn't so close to the Pliskin family but was curious as to whether Ashley was related to them or not.

Ashley saw right through him, and the corner of her mouth twitched. "Whatever. You can follow if you want."

Joseph was instantly moved and said, "Wow, Ashley, you're so good to me. I'm so lucky to be friends with you."

When he finished, he looked at Valentin. "Valentin, what a great husband you've had!"

Then he thought he was wrong and always reversed the gender between Valentin and Ashley!

But Valentin didn't correct it in any way, nodding calmly. "Uh-huh."

Ashley was speechless.

Joseph nearly laughed so hard that his stomach hurt and thought, 'How badly does Valentin want to be tied to Ashley? He'd gladly accept it even if I said Ashley was his husband!'
