Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

The Pliskin family had several properties in Kilos City. Although regularly cleaned, they had been vacant for years, and the furniture needed an upgrade. So when Brian and Karen first arrived here, they checked into a hotel.

Now that the cleaning was done, the villa had a brand-new look and was ready for occupancy.

Karen and Brian came to Kilos City intending to stay for two months.

Even though they didn’t know then that Ashley was their daughter, they genuinely liked her and wanted to spend more time with her.

To their surprise, Ashley was the daughter they had been searching for all these years, giving them even more reason to stay in the capital for a while.

Initially, Karen and Brian planned to bring their daughter back to their home in Takydo once found, living together as a complete family.

However, the situation became complicated as Ashley was already married to Valentin and preferred living in Kilos City. It wouldn’t be appropriate to insist on taking her back to Pliskin residence in Takydo.

Karen and Brian contemplated and decided to settle in here.

They were reluctant to be separated from their daughter, and since it was inconvenient for her to go to Takydo, they chose to establish their residence in the city where their daughter was staying.

As for the focus of their company’s development, they planned to shift it to the domestic market gradually.

Everyone gathered for dinner at Herculy Restaurant. During the meal, Karen and Brian asked many questions about Ashley’s past to learn more about their daughter’s life before.

Ashley answered all their questions earnestly.

George and Lester were so engrossed in listening, eager to participate in their sister’s childhood and growth, but circumstances prevented them from doing so.

The most regrettable part was the interference of Tyler, who had kept their sister away from them for so long.

Upon hearing about her daughter’s experience in the orphanage, Karen’s eyes welled up with tears.

Ashley quickly wiped away her mother’s tears and said, “Actually, I didn’t stay in the orphanage for long. I was later adopted by Grandpa and Grandma and lived with them.”

Brian had learned online that Ashley’s grandparents were the famous Caleb and Myrna, to whom he felt grateful.

Unfortunately, they had already passed away.

Karen also knew about their kindness to Ashley, and the bitterness in her heart eased a bit.
