Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 300

‘Father?’ Ashley repeated in her mind.

She immediately felt disgusted after hearing that term. “Are you really that stupid? I have already told you clear enough. What do I have to do with the Ramos family now? And what do I have to do with you?”

Jaden, suppressing his disgust, interjected quickly, “The Ramos family is just trying to cozy up to you because they see that you’re doing well, especially with Valentin!”

Despite the blatant sarcasm, Evan still shamelessly tried to appease her with a smile, saying, “Ashley is my biological daughter. I was blind to her worth before and treated her poorly, but now I just want to make it up to her…”

Trying to curry favor, Evan looked toward Ashley and shook the silver handcuffs on his wrists. “But now, your mom and I are in jail. Even if I want to make amends, I can’t. How about this, Ashley? Drop the charges, let us out of jail, and I promise we’ll make it up to you over time.”

Ashley raised her eyebrows slightly, her beautiful eyes brimming with irony. “Evan, what a wishful dream you’re having. I’ve said it before, as long as I’m alive, you won’t be getting out of prison!”

Evan was instantly infuriated, unable to maintain his facade of flattery any longer. He was about to erupt in anger, but seeing Valentin nearby, he begrudgingly held it back.

Evan thought angrily, ‘Why is my own daughter determined to fight me until we’re both destroyed? Luckily, we still have Jessica. She’ll sur find a way to get me out of jail. With the unbreakable blood ties betw me and Ashley, and her marriage to Valentin, the Ramos family will become her maternal family, and we might even benefit from the Kingsley family’s influence.’

Just then, Isabela knocked and entered the conference room, looking respectfully toward Ashley and Jaden. “Ms. Ramos, Mr. Walter, Jessica has arrived.”

Upon hearing this, Jaden’s eyes flickered with long-awaited excitement, thinking the real drama was finally about to begin.

Ashley instructed Isabela calmly, “Go ahead and sign the contract with Jessica as we agreed.”
