Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 34

As soon as Ashley walked into the living room of the Kingsley Villa, she saw Valentin sitting on the sofa.

He crossed his legs leisurely and held his phone, tapping on the black screen.

He looked at her, hiding ineffable emotions in his deep eyes.

Ashley was confused by his gaze. “What’s wrong?”

Joseph, following Ashley, was so frightened by Valentin’s cold gaze that his legs went limp.

He thought, “Valentin, don’t blame me. I didn’t wait that to happen either. It’s those people who have wild imaginations.”

In this weird atmosphere, Ashley’s phone rang, and he received a message from Miranda.

They friended each other on Twitter after the final.

Miranda: [Ashley! Check Twitter! There is a rumor about you and Joseph!]

[Ashley, what is your relationship with Joseph? Sorry, I’m just so curious!]

Ashley was puzzled and wondered, ‘What’s going on?‘

She checked her phone and found out that a photo of her and Joseph had been taken and exposed

online.

People were speculating that Joseph was the mysterious man who spent more than 200 thousand dollars for her.

Ashley raised her eyebrows and looked at Joseph. “You aren’t Ariml, are you?“.

She didn’t even know Joseph at that time, so it was impossible for him to send her gifts.

As expected, Joseph waved his hands repeatedly. “It’s not me. I don’t have that account! Who is Ariml? He actually spent more than 200 thousand dollars to give you virtual teddy bears. Is he crazy?”

Ashley frowned in confusion, “I don’t know either.”

Joseph pondered and said, “Could he be your crazy fan? Maybe he was so generous because he likes. you so much. I bet he must be very rich.”
