Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 294

Ashley left the police station, the sun had come up.

Considering Valentin and Ashley’s identity, the police chief walked them out in person.

The Ramos brothers had been waiting outside the police station.

When Ryan finally saw her coming out, he immediately ran over.

However, the moment he saw Valentin next to her, he halted out of fear. If Valentin and Ashley got married, Ryan would become Valentin’s family. Generally speaking, he shouldn’t have been afraid of Valentin.

However, Valentin seemed to be a difficult person to get close to.

Ryan didn’t dare to approach him.

Even so, he was so worried about Ashley and Miranda that he fought his cowardice and ran toward them. He braced himself with gritted teeth and asked, “Ashley, is everything okay? Do you know what the police are going to do with them?”

She answered in a steely tone, “They’ll be held accountable.”

Ryan got the hint that she wasn’t going to help Evan and Bertha out.

He didn’t want Ashley to misunderstand him, so he waved his hand and explained quickly, “Don’t get me wrong. I know Dad and Mom have gone. too far this time. Because of them, Miranda almost got hurt.”

Though he was worried about Evan and Bertha, he was so mad at them for their unforgivable behaviors. Ryan swore that he wouldn’t put in a good word for them.

“Miranda, are you…feeling better?” he asked carefully.

“Yes!” Miranda nodded. She had pulled herself together after she knew the kidnappers were under arrest.

Ryan had been worried that Miranda was traumatized. Therefore, when he learned that she was fine, he felt relieved.

After Miranda left with Ashley and Valentin, Jeremy immediately ran over and forced Ryan to repeat the conversation he had had with Ashley.

After telling his brothers everything, Ryan mocked with a smirk on his

face, “None of you dare to ask Ashley. A bunch of cowards.”

Jeremy threw a punch and retorted, “You want a piece of me?”

Ryan got punched in the face.

“Enough. Stop messing around. Let’s get serious for a minute.” Matthew asked hesitantly. “So… Dad and Mom are going to jail. Are we going to sit and do nothing?”

Rubbing his swollen cheek, Ryan replied with a stern expression, “I feel bad seeing Dad and Mon in jail, but there’s not much we can do. They’re too stubborn. What if they keep making mistakes after they get out of there?”

Jeremy echoed with a frown, “Ryan’s right. We can’t let them harm Ashley again.”

Charlie nodded in agreement.

Frankie thought a lot more than his brothers. Even if they wanted to get Evan and Bertha out of jail, Ashley and Valentin would do whatever they could to stop them. The Ramos family couldn’t afford to go against them.

Ashley was still worried about her, so she turned to Valentin and said, “I want to stay with Miranda for a, while
