Chapter 250

If Lester could think of it, George naturally thought of it too.

The two exchanged a glance, both understanding the expressions in each other’s eyes. The two DNA tests conducted between Ashley and the

Pliskin family might have some doubts. Further investigation was needed.

After spending more than half an hour in the ward, George and Lester left.

Ashley sat back on the chair in front of the hospital bed and checked the wounds on Valentin’s body. The places scratched by the chandelier fragments had begun to heal.

Joseph also sat in front of the bed. “Is it time to change the dressing?”

Ashley glanced at the time. “There’s still an hour left. No rush for now.”

“Alright.” Joseph looked at Valentin on the bed and then at Ashley, seeming like he wanted to say something but hesitated.

“What’s wrong?” Ashley looked at him.

Joseph looked hesitant, ultimately shaking his head.

Intrigued, Ashley was about to inquire further when her phone receive message from Miranda.

She sent it in a three-person WhatsApp group comprising herself, Ashl and Bryce.

Miranda’s text read: [Ashley, are you there? I want to ask you something. Has Ryan approached you recently?]

Seeing the message, Ashley frowned slightly and understood immediately.

Ashley replied: [He came to see you?]

Miranda seemed troubled. [Yes, he came to me yesterday, admitting his past mistakes, asking for your forgiveness, hoping I could let go of the grudges and restore the relationship to what it used to be.]

Ashley pondered momentarily and typed. [What are your thoughts?]

Miranda replied quickly: [I prefer to keep my distance from him at the

moment. As long as you haven’t forgiven him, neither will I.]

Ashley thought for a moment. Miranda and Ryan once did have a beautiful relationship.

Ashley typed. [Miranda, it mainly depends on your feelings. Don’t worry too much about me.]

Miranda replied: [Absolutely not. Friends are the most important!]

[Ashley, if I were in your shoes, I wouldn’t forgive a brother who caused me so much pain in the past. Can he really erase his past mistakes with a simple apology? That will be too easy!]

With a friend like Miranda, Ashley truly felt the unparalleled strength of friendship.

Miranda sent a picture of a stray cat she encountered today. [I met this cutie on the street today, sharing it with you.]

Ashley enlarged the photo. It was a chubby orange cat. [It’s adorable.]

Suddenly, Bryce chimed in: [Can you discuss your matters privately?]

Miranda instantly replied: [No way! If you don’t want to see it, leave the group then]. She sent the message along with a crossed-arms emoji.

Bryce texted. [Aren’t you afraid I’ll be aware of your personal affairs?]

Miranda replied: [There is no need to be afraid. Speaking of which, Bryce, how are things going with Brittany?] She sent the message and an emoji with a face full of gossip.

Ashley had almost forgotten about Brittany, the beautiful girl who was interested in Bryce at that charity dinner and wanted to pursue him.

Bryce seemed to want to avoid the topic. [I have something to take care of. I’ll go ahead.]

Ashley and Miranda then chatted for a while. Just as she was about to put down her phone, she received a call from Jaden.

Sitting next to her, Joseph, upon seeing Jaden’s name, disdainfully clicked his tongue.

Ashley glanced at him, finding it strange that these two always clashed, constantly bickering.
