Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

was well aware of the intricacies between Ashley and the Ramos family, and Charlie happened to be a member of the Ramos family. Moreover, when Cara attempted to harm Ashley, Charlie inexplicably took Cara’s side. This greatly irked Noah, casting a shadow on his opinion of Charlie.

“Ms. Ramos, Charlie has been to the auction house before, claiming to be here out of curiosity, wanting to meet the famous Rita Grant. He came again today, and he came with Cara.”

Ashley’s eyes flickered slightly. “With Cara?”

“Yes.” Noah gloated. “Cara appears to have taken quite a beating, almost as if she faced some form of retaliation.”

“Retaliation?”

“Yes, her mouth is swollen, and there are bruises on the exposed skin of her arms.” Noah felt quite satisfied, speaking rapidly like a machine gun.

“Ms. Ramos, Cara sneakily had someone trap you in the restroom, claiming she aimed to school you. Fortunately, you were vigilant and kicked open the toilet door, or the consequences would have been unimaginable. Now, it’s time for Cara to face the music. That’s karma catching up with her deeds!”

After listening to Noah’s words, Ashley raised her eyes slightly and looked towards Valentin, who was working behind the desk.

On the phone, Noah continued, “We’re having a little auction this afternoon, and Charlie and Cara are there, not just for the auction, l mainly to meet Rita. Ms. Ramos, would you like to meet Charlie?”

Ashley asked, “What time does the auction end?”

“Probably around five in the afternoon,” Noah replied.

Ashley tapped her knee, her tone casual. “I’ll make a trip there before five.”

Noah was surprised by her response. Ashley agreed to meet Charlie as Rita? Or was she simply coming to the auction house?

Regardless, Noah was pleased that Ashley could come to the auction house.
