Save Myself From Desperation by Cara Agnes novel Chapter 370

Lester came out of the dim and bloody storage room, looking very upset.

George glanced at the sunset on the horizon. Only Leonard could heal Ashley now.

But when exactly would Ashley wake up...

The treatment that followed required acupuncture only twice a week. However, Leonard couldn't stop worrying about Ashley and visited daily to check on her.

After his visits, Leonard would report everything back to Andrew without any changes.

Karen and Brian constantly stayed in the ward. Their brows furrowed with worry every day as they watched Ashley lying unconscious.

Joseph and Claire brought Zain every day, hoping to see Ashley wake up soon.

That afternoon, after taking Zain home, Joseph returned to the ward.

Valentin had been steadfastly guarding the ward these days.

Ashley being unconscious was already hard for him. Seeing Valentin becoming more silent and thinner made it even harder.

Moreover, he was counting the days. It had been another ten days.

Leonard had said that under the best circumstances, with slow and gradual treatment, Ashley might wake up in ten days to half a month. But now, Ashley still lay there quietly, showing no signs of waking up.

Joseph agitated, ran his fingers through his hair, wishing he could be the one lying there unconscious instead of Ashley.

Suddenly, the phone on the table beside him pinged.

Picking it up, Joseph saw it was Ashley's phone, which had been kept charged these days. It was a message from Miranda.

[Ashley, you haven't been answering my calls or texts for a few days. Are you avoiding me? Please don't! Please don't ignore me!]

Joseph sighed. Considering Ashley's fame and influence, her unconscious state hadn't been revealed to the public.

If it were known, it would definitely cause a stir. There might even be unscrupulous paparazzi trying to find out which hospital Ashley was in to sneak in and take pictures.

And, not wanting to worry Miranda, they hadn't told her the truth either.

Miranda just sent this message because she probably felt left out and sad.

Joseph was hesitating about what to do. Should he make an excuse like he did a few days ago and briefly reply to Miranda?

Suddenly, Ashley's phone rang. Miranda was calling again.

Joseph didn't know what to do and looked at Valentin, who was standing by the hospital bed. "Valentin, Miranda is calling again. And Jaden, Bryce, and other friends have been texting her these past few days. Should we just turn off her phone?"

But if they turned off the phone and couldn't be reached, her friends might think something was really wrong.

Valentin thought for a moment, his voice a bit hoarse. "Give me the phone."

Joseph quickly handed him the phone.

Valentin slid the screen and answered the call.

"Ashley! You finally answered my call!"

Miranda was thrilled on the other end.

Valentin was silent for a moment before speaking. "Ashley is in the hospital."

Miranda immediately recognized Valentin's voice and opened her eyes wide in surprise. "Mr. Kingsley? What did you just say? Ashley is in the hospital? Is she sick?"

Valentin replied, "Yes."

Miranda was anxious. "Is it serious? What's wrong with her? Which hospital? I'll come to see her!"

Valentin gave her the hospital's address.

Joseph was surprised. Did he tell Miranda directly?

Thinking about it, Ashley and Miranda were close. Hearing that Ashley was sick, Miranda was so worried. Telling her seemed fine.
