Chapter 107
Ashley's parents had never cared about her, so there was no one else to worry about her safety.
Just like last time, when she was kidnapped and returned home from a catastrophe, she thought she could feel some comfort.
However, her father was very busy and happy at the gambling table while her mother was waiting for her younger brother to come home. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
For two days, Williams's family was unaware that Ashley had gone missing.
‘’They're heartless” Ashley thought.
She had been distant from her family since she was a child.
But Ashley wondered that although she had sent Galen away with such hatred, he did not leave and instead remained with his arms crossed as if he was waiting for her.
Galen just stood there and even teased her, "Did you have with your family?"
He kept bringing up the things she was trying to avoid.
Ashley was so frustrated that she lost her mind.
She went so far as to do something that would make her feel stupid if she thought about it after that.
"You go, or I'll jump down from here!"
Ashley said as she flipped over the fence in the middle of the road.
The river was calm, and there was a strange halo giving perfection in the sky.
Galen was also used to his mouth, and he was gentle and courteous in public.
However, those who knew him well knew that beneath his solemn tone lurked a sand sculpture that needed to be beaten.
He whistled and laughed, "You dare to jump? I don't believe it!"
When Galen did not seem to believe her, Ashley jumped into the endless river without even a second's hesitation or Opportunity to react.
Galen was stunned as her ruthlessness surprised him.
‘’Did she just jump into the river?’’
When he regained his senses, he jumped down as well after only one second.
The moment they entered the water, it was pitch black in all directions.
Galen raised his head above the water to search for traces of Ashley.
Fortunately, they weren't far from each other.
Galen swiftly swam over, only to discover that Ashley, who was also in the water, did not indulge in the river at all.
Instead, she leisurely looked at the skies in a backstroke position.
Ashley sighed softly when Galen was about to speak, "I'm such a moron.I'm obviously a good swimmer.But why can't I choose to jump to my death? I guess there must be a few more gourds of water in my head!"
She laughed.
Galen's eyelids twitched as he listened.
‘She's ruthless, but she'd still be able to play around?’
He said, "I'm sorry, I just owed you money.Anyway, I owe you more than this.If you really can't do it, then beat me up.Ashley did beat him up by kicking Galen into the water.Galen choked a few mouthfuls because he was caught off guard.
Satisfied with his reaction, Ashley smiled and swept away from her previous gloom, saying, "Sorry, it's actually my fault.Whatever the case may be, it is all done with good intentions.I'm both angry and resentful of you.I really shouldn't have done this."
"Then let's settle it!" Galen said, raising his eyebrows.
"It's time to go up."
"All right"
Ashley said as she began swimming to the shore.
The distance between the river and the sidewalk wasn't that far, and it just so happened to be a shallow water area, so the two of them could wander around in their free time.
Ashley waited for Galen to come ashore.
Ashley's emotions were triggered once more as she looked out at the endless river water.
The urge was, indeed, from her negative thoughts.
Her heart was filled with joy the moment she jumped down the river.
But when she turned around, she suddenly thought about life.
There was no reason for anyone to live with her since she believed that nothing was more important to her than her own life.
Fortunately, her stupidity had unexpected consequences.
She would not only harm herself, but it would also affect Galen.
Ashley trembled.
Compared to the violent reaction from before, she was now weakened.
"Let's go.I'll take you home,’’ said Galen.
Looking at their wet bodies, it was certain that they would catch a cold after a long time.
"Okay” Ashley replied.
