Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 375

Having witnessed Ashley, who had lying unconscious on the hospital bed for two months, Lester momentarily thought he was experiencing an illusion when she finally opened her eyes.

It wasn’t until he saw her eyes move that he realized it was real.

Ashley had truly awakened!

His sister had finally awakened!

Overwhelmed with emotion, Lester’s eyes became warm, and he lost control to the point of dropping the water glass in his hand with a crisp sound.

He had never been so not composed.

Hastily, he called loudly for his parents and George.

Meanwhile, Brian, Karen, and George were listening to Leonard explain some precautions.

When they heard Lester’s exclamation that “Ashley has awakened,”

there was a moment of hesitation, as if they couldn’t believe it. Then, in a flurry, they rushed to the bedside.

“Ashley…” Karen ran over in a fluster, seeing her daughter finally awake. Her nose tingled, and tears seemed to burst like a dam, uncontrollabl streaming down her face.

“Ashley, is this not a dream? You’re finally awake.”

Karen rushed forward to embrace Ashley but hesitated, fearing she mig hurt her with rash movements. It was as if she was handling a precious, fragile porcelain doll, desiring to touch but afraid to do so.

“Ashley, can you hear me talking? How do you feel now? Any discomfort?”

Brian’s voice trembled as he asked several questions in succession, his eyes turning slightly red.

George and Lester stood on the other side of the hospital bed, and their eyes fixed on Ashley. They didn’t want to miss any subtle changes in her expression.
