Chapter 255

Knowing that he would say that, I nodded. “Okay, I understand.”

Although I did not know what he planned to do, it had nothing to do with me. After all, I did not plan to rely on someone else to avenge me for all of my past sufferings. Except for myself, everyone else merely served as support.

As I had to go to J City tomorrow, I went to bed early that night. Yet, as expected, I was still plagued by insomnia.

When Ashton noticed that I could not fall asleep, he embraced me with his arms. “Why don’t we do it for the night?”

The next morning at 6 a.m., I woke up and got out of bed. As I had not slept at all, my body was weak, and I could hear ringing in my ears. It felt extremely uncomfortable.
