Save Myself from Desperation by Cara Agnes

Chapter 245

After visiting Valentin, Ashley accompanied Lester and George out of the ward.

“Ashley, don’t worry too much,” Lester advised. “Take care of yourself. Don’t exhaust yourself before

Valentin wakes up.”

George, who was usually indifferent, expressed concern. “Yes, Ashley, take care of yourself.”

Ashley nodded. “I will. Why are you still here?”

“We’ve been investigating Cara’s situation recently. We want to find out if she is blood-related to us.”

Lester raised an eyebrow slightly. “I met her this morning.”

“How is it? Did you find out anything?” Ashley asked.

“Not yet, but George has come up with a perfect way to confirm if Cara is our long-lost sister,” Lester

said meaningfully.

“A perfect way?” Ashley was surprised and looked at George standing beside her.

The always calm George became excited, thinking, ‘Ashley isn’t afraid of me anymore. She’s

voluntarily looking at me!”

Suppressing his joy, he nodded calmly. “Yes, I have a foolproof method. We’ll confirm it soon.”

Ashley didn’t ask for specifics about the method.

Given George and Lester’s intelligence and means, since they dared to say that, it must guarantee

success.

After chatting for a while, Ashley walked them downstairs.

The VIP ward was on the eighth floor, and they took the elevator to the first floor.

After getting off the elevator, Lester said, “Ashley, don’t go out. There are too many people outside, and

you might be recognized.”

Ashley nodded. “Okay, then be careful on your way back.”

Lester and George chatted with Ashley for a while before leaving the

hospital.

Ashley pressed the elevator button, preparing to return to the eighth floor.

At that moment, someone called out to her from behind, “Ashley?”

Ashley instinctively turned around and was surprised to see Jeremy.

Besides Jeremy, Matthew and Ryan were there. Ryan had a piece of gauze taped to his forehead.

“Ashley, are you feeling unwell? Why did you come to the hospital?” Jeremy ran over with concern,

carefully inspecting Ashley. “Are you sick? Have you seen a doctor?”

Matthew and Ryan also hurried over.

Ashley didn’t want to talk much with them and wanted to enter the elevator, but the elevator hadn’t

arrived yet.



Matthew anxiously asked, “Ashley, how do you feel? I know a doctor in this hospital. We don’t have to

wait in line. I can take you to see him right away!”

Ryan added, “Ashley, I know you dislike us, but your health is important. Shouldn’t you go see a doctor

first?”

Their noise irritated Ashley, and her eyebrows furrowed. “I’m not sick.”

Jeremy felt relieved upon hearing that. “That’s great! As long as you’re fine. I was too worried just now!

When I saw you at the hospital, I thought you were sick.”

What made him even sadder was that she came to the hospital alone.

He was glad that Ashley wasn’t sick. If she had really come to the hospital alone for treatment, how

helpless she would have been.

“Ashley,” Jeremy took two deep breaths and pleaded, “take my number off your blacklist. I promise not

to disturb you. If you need anything, day or night, you can find me anytime, and I’ll be there!”

“Take me off your blacklist, too.” Matthew’s gaze was filled with longing. “If something like today

happens again, you don’t have to come to the hospital alone. We are your brothers, and taking care of

you is our duty!”

Jeremy and Matthew quickly tried to please Ashley with their words, while Ryan fell behind. He couldn’t

come up with anything heartfelt, so he pitifully said, “Ashley, take me off your blacklist, too.”

Ashley didn’t pay attention but noticed the bandage on Ryan’s forehead.

Matthew immediately said, “It happened a few days ago when we secretly followed you. A

skateboarder rushed over, and when Ryan pulled you away, he was knocked down by that

skateboarder and hit his head. Today he came to change the bandage.”

Ashley remembered that incident.

Ryan pulled her away, but he ended up being knocked down by the skateboarder.

She didn’t expect such a slight action would result in a head injury.

Ryan’s rugged face showed a hint of embarrassment. “Ashley, don’t worry. It’s not serious at all. It will

be okay soon.”

Ryan knew it was a good chance to win Ashley’s favor, but he didn’t want Ashley to feel guilty.

“It’s just a superficial wound. It’s nothing compared to what you’ve done for me in the past!”

Ashley glanced at him without saying a word.

Jeremy suddenly realized. “Ashley, if you’re not here for medical treatment, then you must be visiting

our mother, right?”

This was the best hospital in the city.

Bertha had been staying in this hospital since she got sick.

But she wasn’t in the VIP ward. She was in a regular room on the fifth floor.

Upon hearing this, Ashley coldly denied, “No.”



Jeremy nodded, not finding her attitude cold at all.

After all, Bertha had done many things to hurt Ashley. She still obstinately considered Jessica, who was

hypocritical and malicious, as precious.

Jererny believed that Bertha would soon fall victim to Jessica’s schemes.

“Then, Ashley, why did you come to the hospital?” Matthew curiously asked.

After asking, Matthew realized that Ashley disliked him so much and

didn’t even want to see him. How could she answer his question?

Ashley ignored his question and stared at the changing floor number on the screen. She really wanted

to leave this place, far away from them.

Ryan felt regretful. He couldn’t see how good Ashley had been to him. before and didn’t know how to

cherish her. Now that he wanted to make amends, it was already too late.

Jeremy was also sad. After hesitating for two seconds, he opened his phone’s photo album and passed

the phone to Ashley.

Jeremy said solemnly, “Ashley, I had tried to offer you a house, a car, and a bank card, but you turned

them down. You didn’t want to accept my compensation.



“But it’s okay. This is a notarized will that I made. If something unexpected happens to me one day, all

my possessions will go to you. I’ve signed the will, and it’s legally binding after notarization.”

Matthew widened his eyes and leaned over to take a look. The photo showed the contents of the will.

All his property would belong to Ashley, and Jeremy had signed it.

“Jeremy, when did you do this?!” Matthew was shocked.

“It has been a while,” Jeremy said calmly.

He was the first person to discover Ashley’s virtues and the first to want her forgiveness. But since

Ashley refused to accept anything from him, he couldn’t come up with other solutions and got the will

notarized.

He gave Ashley all the property under his name.

Ashley was stunned.

When she heard about the will, she was indeed surprised. She hadn’t expected Jeremy to make such a

decision and write a will at such a young

age.

Matthew was both shocked and angry, thinking, ‘Why didn’t Jeremy share it with me? It’s such a good

way to compensate Ashley.’

Jeremy once again gained Ashley’s favor in advance.

Matthew felt especially angry and jealous.

Matthew solemnly said, “I will make a will, too! I will give all my property to Ashley!”

Ryan also said, “Count me in. I’ll do it as well.”

Ashley was speechless.

Did they all treat making a will as a child’s play?

“Ashley?” At this moment, a gentle female voice called out Ashley’s name from behind.

Ashley turned her head. She raised an eyebrow when she saw Cara and Charlie.
