Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 116

Valentin, already used to Joseph’s boisterous behavior, settled on the living room couch without even lifting his gaze. “What news?”

Joseph pulled out his phone and showed the screen to him. “News abou Ashley!”

At the mention of Ashley, Valentin’s indifferent demeanor shifted, and het immediately lifted his gaze to look at the phone.

Joseph played a video he found online, saying, “The press took this today. Ashley was at the airport picking up someone. It was Jaden, the founder of Glory Youveile!”

Pointing at the video of Ashley and Jaden at the airport, Joseph’s gossip-loving soul was ignited.

“How does Ashley know someone like Jaden? And she even went to the airport to pick him up. Jaden was calling Ashley his dream girl and seemed very protective of her. They appear to have known each other for a long time and share a special bond…

Then Joseph showed another video. “Look at this, Valentin. Someone captured Ashley and Jaden having dinner together and they even went shopping after that! Have you ever gone shopping with Ashley?”

After Joseph asked, he felt a sudden shift in the atmosphere, and the air turned heavy and stifling.

Joseph immediately fell silent.

He thought to himself nervously, ‘Oh no, I spoke too much!”

Valentin sat on the couch, his deep gaze fixed on the video. His expression was calm, yet there was an underlying intensity.

Valentin lowered his gaze, fixating on the video.

The footage captured Ashley and Jaden shopping in the store, discreetly recorded by a nearby employee.

Valentin pondered, ‘Dear… Jaden called her dear…

A hint of coldness flickered in Valentin’s eyes, his handsome and fair face taking on a stern expression.
