Ashley’s heart skipped a beat, and she fell into an awkward silence.

In her childhood, she was very clingy to Valentin and often told him what to do.

Recalling that she often asked him to massage her and help her with her homework, Ashley felt very embarrassed.

She coughed out of guilt and pretended not to hear him, refusing to admit that she had often bossed him around.

Seeing her pretending not to remember, Valentin raised an eyebrow and drawled. “Ashley, you really don’t remember?”

He leaned closer to her ear, his voice low and alluring. “That’s okay. I can help you recall it.”

Ashley’s ears were flushed.

It was the first time she got so close to him, and she could even feel his warm breath.

Ashley touched her flushed ear and said in abashment, “You’re so close to mel

Valentin massaged her shoulders and teased, “Don’t be so heartless. I still remember you were clingy to me when you were little.”

Ashley didn’t expect her words to give him a chance to mention the past again.

Valentin took a look at his hands, which had red marks as Ashley slapped them hard.

Valentin chuckled, showing a bit of joy. “It’s better to let me do it.”

Ashley snorted and said stubbornly, “I said I can do it myself.”

He raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of affection. “But I want to help. Would you like to give me a chance?”

Ashley glanced at him and agreed in a histrionic tone, “Alright. You’d better cherish this opportunity.”

Valentin smiled faintly, his eyes filled with tenderness.

He continued to squeeze her shoulders through a thin layer of clothing.

Ashley had to admir he was very skilled. His force was neither light nor heavy, and it relieved her fatigue a lot.
