Save Myself from Desperation

Chapter 225 Joseph agreed as he pushed open the car door, eager to follow suit. “Yeah, Ashley, let Valentin come with you!” Who knew that lunatic Jeremy was thinking?

Thinking back to Jeremy's past behavior in the Ramos family, hist attitude, and his mistreatment towards Ashley, Joseph felt he must get out of the car, too, just to be sure Ashley was safe.

Ashley caught the worry lingering in Valentin’s eyes. Her heart skipped a beat. She felt a warmth inside her heart, feeling like she had been cherished.

Her nose tingled, and she smiled, “Don’t worry, I'll be fine. Jeremy wouldn’t dare do anything to me now. You guys just wait for me in the

car. Valentin frowned.

Ashley gripped his hand, gently soothing over the back of his hand. “Really, I'll be back soon. And you guys are in the car, so if anything happens, you can always come to me.

Valentin pondered, and his eyes cast down.

Given the current situation with Jeremy, he probably wouldn’t dare do anything to her. Reluctantly, Valentin let go of her hand and reminded her, “Make it quick.”

“Sure!” Ashley obediently responded and then got out of the car.

In Jeremy's car behind them, seeing the car ahead suddenly stop, Matthew looked completely baffled. “Why did they suddenly stop? Should we stop too?”

Jeremy parked at the sideway. “Yeah, let’s stop for a bit and see if Ashley needs anything...”

Before Jeremy could finish, Matthew immediately shouted, “Jeremy, Ryan, Ashley’s getting out of the car! Why is she walking towards here?”

Ryan was surprised, wondering if Ashley spotted them or if she was just

heading to the nearby supermarket.

As he pondered this, Ashley walked straight to their car and tapped on the window impatiently.

Jeremy was taken aback, then he quickly rolled down the window, his face lighting up with excitement. “Ashley! Did you come to see us?”

Ashley almost laughed out of frustration. That was ridiculous. She peered through the window and saw Jeremy, along with Matthew and Ryan, all gathered. “Why are you following me?” Ashley’s voice was cold, devoid of any emotion.

Now that they had been discovered, Ryan decided to get out of the car and quickly approached Ashley. “Ashley, we... We just wanted to see you. You've been avoiding us.”

Matthew quickly followed, stepping out of the car. ‘Damn, Ryan’s already got a head start chatting with Ashley!”

Jeremy also wanted to get out, but Ashley was standing right outside the driver’s side window. He couldn't open the door without risking bumping into her. What if he accidentally hit her?

Jeremy’s palms started to sweat in frustration as he couldn’t get out of the car. Finally, he bit the bullet, climbing over to the passenger side and getting out from there.

“Ashley, don’t stand by the road. It’s not safe,” Jeremy said as he ran over, standing between Ashley and the passing cars on the road.

Ashley didn’t want to be protected in this way and moved under a nearby tree.

The three Ramos brothers immediately followed her.

“So, what do you guys want?” Ashley asked again, her voice indifferent.

Ryan looked at Ashley almost in a greedy way, as if he hadn’t seen her in a very long time, his throat tightening, “Ashley, we want to make for our past mistakes. Can you give us a chance?”

Ashley furrowed her brows tightly.

Jeremy quickly spoke up. “Ashley, | don’t want to lie to you. | followed 09:03 T

you secretly in my car to see where you're living now. We want to move there too, be there for you every day, make amends, and seek your forgiveness!”

Matthew nodded, affirming that Jeremy was telling the truth.

Ashley sneered, her eyes filling with irony. “You’ve followed me and used. such a trick to find out where | live without my consent. Keep that kind of amends to yourselves. | don’t want it.”

Matthew's face turned pale, showing panic and embarrassment.

Indeed, they completely disregarded her wishes and used this sneaky way to find out her address to ease their guilt. “Ashley, please don’t be angry, we were wrong. We should have

Ryan pressed his lips. “It was me. | told Jeremy to do it. Ashley, if you’re angry, be angry at me alone.”

Ashley looked at the three of them indifferently, not wanting to utter another word, and turned to leave.

Just then, Ryan suddenly noticed a kid learning to skateboard behind Ashley. The kid’s skateboard had gone out of control and was speeding towards them.

Ashley didn’t see it coming with her back turned. Ryan saw the whole situation clearly. The kid on the runaway skateboard yelled in panic, “Ah! Watch of

Seeing the kid about to collide with Ashley, Ryan frowned and read cout decisively, swiftly pulling Ashley out of the way.

The kid rushed past like a small cannonball, missing Ashley but hitting

Ryan with a loud crash..

Tac impact was so strong that Ryan was knocked to the ground.

The skateboarding kid also fell and got up crying. He kept apologizing, “Tinocory, I’m so sorry...

Ashby furrowed her brows and glanced at her arm, where Ryan had just pulled leenaway, pondering.

Jeremy and Matthew snapped out of their shock and quickly helped Ryan to his feet.

At the same time, they were frustrated. It was a great opportunity to show off, after all. But they hadn't seized it. ‘Damn it!’

Ryan endured the pain and looked at the crying kid, saying coldly, “It's okay. Just be more careful next time.” Then, he let the kid go.

“Ashley.” Ryan looked at Ashley, his stern face softening. “Don’t worry about what just happened. | just didn’t want to see you get hurt. Besides, you have helped me get back to my racing by finding doctors to heal my leg. Anything | do for you is only right.”

Ashley glanced at him indifferently and turned to leave.

It wasn’t until Ashley was out of sight that Ryan could no longer hide his pain. He grimaced, almost collapsing to the ground. “What's wrong?” Matthew supported him. “Ryan, are you okay?”

Ryan’s face was pale. He spoke through the pain. “I hit my head on a stone when | fell. It's really hurting...”

It felt like his head was about to explode.

Jeremy took a look at the back of Ryan’s head, and his face turned pale immediately. “You're bleeding! Your head’s cut open!”

Matthew hurriedly said, “Get to the hospital now! Ryan, let me tak lead in these stunts next time. I’m tougher and can handle the falls better!”

“You wish!” Ryan retorted with his head spinning with pain, “This wo is for Ashley. I'll bear it forever!” “Alright, let's get to the car and head to the hospital!” Jeremy said, helpin Ryan to the car.

But just then, he saw someone approaching and froze.
