Save Myself From Desperation by Cara Agnes novel Chapter 54

Chapter 54

Ashley sat by the harp, pressing the strings with her left hand and plucking the strings with her right hand. With just a slight lift of her index finger, the harp made a deep and far–reaching tone.

It was pleasant, making people think of ancient times.

This harp was worthy of being one of the top ten famous harps.

Ashley was surprised. The tone overwhelmed her, and then she was immersed in playing it.

Valentin looked at Ashley, who was immersed in playing the harp. A trace of warmth appeared in his cold and deep eyes.

He knew that The Land was the first song written by Ashley. She posted it on the Internet under the name Ash. The song enjoyed popular love as soon as it was released and went viral for a while.

This song could be played with various instruments, but the most suitable one was the harp. The tune changed from gentle to passionate. The emotions it contained were unique and strong. Valentin had listened to it so many times in private that he knew the score by heart.

Zain sat on the sofa and enjoyed the music. He had boundless feelings even if Ashley finished playing the song. He praised, “Ashley, you play the harp better than before. I have heard so many famous. harpers play the harp, but none of them are better than you.”

Ashley smiled, “Grandpa, I’m flattered.”

Zain became anxious upon hearing this. I’m not flattering you. You played it very well. Ashley, do you like this harp?”

“I like it very much. Thank you.”

“I’m glad that you like it. As long as you like it, my effort is not in vain.”

Zain laughed heartily and pulled Ashley up affectionately as if he had endless words to talk to her. He completely ignored Valentin.

Valentin stood alone and was speechless.

After lunch, Zain returned to the Kingsley Manor.

Ashley put away the harp. This harp needed to be stored properly. She put it in another place and returned to the living room. Valentin was staring at her.

His eyes were deep. It seemed that he had been staring at Ashley for a long time.

Ashley’s heart skipped a beat. She stared at him arrogantly. “Stop staring at me.”

Valentin chuckled. He sat leisurely on the sofa and crossed his legs. He waved to her. “Come here.”

Ashley didn’t listen to him obediently. She stood still and refused. “No. Why do I have to come to you as you said?”

Valentin raised his eyebrows, stood up abruptly, and said casually, “Okay, since you don’t want to come over, then I’ll go over.”

Ashley rolled her eyes.

How could Valentin be so cheeky?

Ashley glanced at him as Valentin walked over and deliberately walked towards the sofa.

She didn’t want to have close contact with him anyway.

Ashley walked to the sofa and sat down.

Valentin raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled. He was not angry and returned patiently.

Seeing him coming back. Ashley immediately stood up and wanted to walk away.

However, the next second, Valentin held her shoulders, looked down at her with his deep eyes, i said in a low voice, “Why are you escaping? I won’t do anything to you.”

Ashley felt a sudden tightness. She glared at him. “What nonsense are you talking about? I don’t want to see your bitten mouth.”

Valentin grunted, tilting his head deliberately. He showed her the bitten corner of his mouth and said, “Then, why didn’t you push me away and bite me instead, huh?”

Ashley didn’t know what to say for a while.

Valentin paused for two seconds, seeming to recall. “Let me think about how many times Ashley bit me last night.”

Ashley was stunned.

Her eyes widened in surprise.

“Oh, I remembered it. You bit me at least three times…”

Before Valentin could finish speaking, Ashley stretched out her hand and covered his mouth, feeling ashamed and embarrassed. “Don’t say that.”

Valentin chuckled, and his voice was low and magnetic. He was pleased.
