Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 134

Jaden returned to the villa he was temporarily staying at.

Sitting in Joseph’s flashy pink sports car, Ashley returned with him to Kingsley Villa.

On the way back, Joseph, who was driving, casually asked, “Ashley, you and Valentin aren’t still sleeping in separate rooms, are you?”

Ashley, somewhat speechless, replied, “No.”

After her last chat with Joseph about accidentally revealing too much, she started sharing a room with Valentin.

Suddenly remembering something, Ashley curiously asked, “You said Valentin mentioned me to you before?”

Joseph laughed. “Yes, he did.”

Ashley inquired, “What did Valentin say about me?”

Joseph chuckled, “Guess?”

Ashley said, “Okay, did he mention how I used to bully him when we were kids? How I bit him once?”

At a red traffic light, Joseph stopped the car, laughing uncontrollably. “Why would you think that way?”

Holding her head in one hand, Ashley replied, “Then what did he mention about me?”

Joseph turned to look at her, surprised. “Ashley, you said you used to bully Valentin as a kid? I don’t believe it. I think no one can bully Valentin.”

Ashley blinked. As a child, she did boss Valentin around quite often, demanding him to do her homework, tell her stories, or give her a shoulder massage.

Joseph said with a meaningful smile, “Ashley, Valentin must have willingly let you boss him around. Otherwise, you couldn’t have done it.”

Ashley’s heart skipped a beat.

She thought, “Valentin willingly let me boss him around? Really?”
