Andrew felt displeased with Ashley’s expectations. He narrowed his eyes. and said in gloom. “Are you looking forward to meeting


    Valentin?”


    “If | don’t expect Valentin toe, should | expect to be forced to stay here and recall the past? | even suspect you lied to me on


    purpose.”


    After speaking, Ashley ran out of the living room.


    Andrew frowned in anger.


    As Ashley ran past him, he suddenly stretched out his hand and mped her soft wrist.


    He said defiantly. “Do you want to make another bet?”


    “Bet on what?” Ashley instantly got alert.


    “Just bet.” Valentin paused for a while, raised his eyebrow, and smiled meaningfully, “Bet if Valentin can get you out of here.”


    Ashley frowned and said coldly, “Stop picking on him, Andrew.”


    “Pick on him?” Andrew sneered, grabbing Ashley’s wrist with one hand, and tapping his temple with the other. Then, he added, “I


    have a bad memory. | even forgot to give you today’s greeting gift.”


    Ashley looked serious and refused indifferently. “I don’t want it.”


    Andrew was cunning and always behaved crazily with an abnormal. mind, so Ashley wouldn’t ept his gift.


    But Andrew ignored Ashley’s refusal and ordered the subordinate on the side, “Take the gift here.”


    Then, he took Ashley to the study on the second floor.


    When they entered the study, Ashley broke free from Andrew''s grasp. At this time, the subordinate came over with a rectangr


    gift box and handed it to Ashley with both hands.


    Ashley stood still and looked up at Andrew, who was standing by the window. “I told you | don’t want it.”


    Andrew tilted his head and smiled perversely, “If you don’t take it, he will have to keep holding it.”


    Andrew mentioned the subordinate who delivered the gift.


    Ashley frowned. She didn’t want to trouble others, so she took the gift with reluctance.


    The subordinate finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside with hist head down respectfully.


    Ashley opened the box and found a silver pistol inside, which was not a toy but a real gun full of bullets in it.


    Ashley immediately recognized the model of the pistol. Although it was rare, it performed well and wasmonly used by


    mercenaries.


    Ashley sneered.


    She found his gift as abnormal as himself.


    “Why did you give it to me?” Ashley looked at Andrew speechlessly.


    “Don''t you like it?”


    “Sort of.” Ashley was good at shooting and interested in firearms, but she couldn’t bring the real pistol on board.


    At this moment, a dazzling light shed through the ss window of the study. Under the darkness, the light came closer and


    closer, and it looked like a caring from a distance.


    Ashley was moved, and her heart beating violently. She seemed something and ran to the window to look out.

    Seeing this situation, Andrew’s subordinates, who were patrolling near the vi, immediately became vignt. They all gathered


    together and blocked before the vi. They also pointed their guns at the bodyguards before them.


    The two parties formed a confrontation.


    In the tense and dangerous situation, the door of the ck car parked in the middle slowly opened, and the noble Valentin


    showed up out of the

    car.


    In the dark night, the lights of several cars merged together.


    Valentin leaned over and got out of the car, standing under the backlight. His face was blurred, and only the outline of his side


    could be discerned.


    But Ashley on the second floor recognized him at a nce, and she knew it was Valentin.


    Valentin indeed came there to save her.


    Ashley froze for a moment. She turned around and wanted to run out.


    But the subordinate standing aside immediately raised his hands and blocked Ashley’s way.


    Ashley frowned, stopped, and looked at Andrew aside. “Enough is enough.”


    “Do you still remember the bet just now, Ashley?” Andrew sneered coldly, “I bet Valentin can’t take you away from here.”


    After speaking, he forcefully dragged Ashley back to the window and had/ her face out.


    Ashley struggled subconsciously.


    But Andrew stood behind Ashley as if hugging her from behind. He held her left hand with one hand, picked up the silver pistol


    with the other hand, and ced it in the palm of Ashley’s right hand.


    Then, Andrew held Ashley’s right hand with the gun from behind as if teaching her how to shoot.


    However, he slowly raised the muzzle and pointed it in Valentin’s direction outside the vi.


    “Andrew!”


    Ashley’s eyes suddenly widened, and she called his name coldly and immediately struggled out.


    Andrew firmly grasped her right hand, holding the gun from behind with great strength, pointed the gun in the direction of the


    muzzle, and aimed it at Valentin outside the vi without any deviation.


    He lowered his head slightly and whispered meaningfully in Ashley’s ear,

    “Don''t you n to divorce him?”


    At this time, Valentin, outside the vi, seemed to feel Ashley’s direction. He suddenly raised his chin and looked towards the


    second floor of the vi with his stern eyes.


    Then, the bodyguards around him immediately looked up and followed his gaze.


    The bodyguards sensed the gun pointing at them. They looked alert, immediately turned the muzzle of the gun, and pointed in


    the direction. of the second floor.


    At this time, in the second-floor study, Andrew stood behind Ashley, holding her right hand with the gun from behind. He lowered


    his head slightly, and Ashley even could feel his warm breath. “You didn’t want to marry him at first, right?”


    Ashley didn’t like being cooped up and said indifferently without any emotions, “It’s none of your business.”


    “Since you don’t want to marry him, how about | help you get rid of him?”


    “How dare you?” Ashley replied in anger.


    She found Andrewpletely lost control.


    Ashley closed her eyes and took a deep breath. “If you are abnormal in mental, please leave me alone. Let go of me now,


    Andrew. Do me?”


    Andrew chuckled, with affection in his eyes. “But | feel reluctant you go.”

    Ashley had her back to him and couldn’t see his expression. She gri her teeth in anger, suddenly elbowed back, and hit Andrew

    He groaned in pain hoarsely and hurriedly gasped.


    His groans sounded ambiguous.


    Ashley took the chance to break free from Andrew’s grasp. She turned to look at Andrew and instantly pointed the gun at his


    head.


    Andrew had a gun pointed at his head, but he still lookedpletely unconcerned. He rubbed his chest with his fingertips and


    sighed, “How fierce you are!”

    Seeing this situation, the subordinate immediately took out his gun and pointed it at Ashley''s temple.


    As a subordinate, whether Andrew loved Ashley, he would protect Andrew whenever he was threatened.


    However, Andrew suddenly looked sullen and stared at the subordinate with sinister eyes. “How dare you pull a gun on her? Put


    it down!”


    The subordinate was stunned for a moment.


    Andrew didn’t mind if Ashley held him at gunpoint, but he got furious when the subordinate did it to Ashley.


    “Mr. Banks,” the subordinate muttered, wanted to exin the situation to Andrew.


    Andrew looked gloomy and said meaningfully, “I enjoyed her pointing a gun at me. You got a problem with that?”


    The subordinate immediately fell into silence and withdrew his


    gun.


    But he feared Ashley might hurt Andrew.


    Ashley looked speechless at this time. “Knock it off, Andrew!”


    But Andrew just nced at the clock on the wall. “There are only twenty minutes left, and haven''t you still remembered what you


    promised me?”


    Ashley didn’t know how to reply.


    She pointed a gun at him, but he was still concerned about the trifles in this situation.


    Ashley nced at the clock and found it was eleven-forty. She guessed the whole thing had something to do with the time.


    Outside the vi, Valentin raised his head and looked in the direction of the second floor, and when he intended to walk towards


    the vi, a gunshot broke the tranquility of the night.


    Valentin’s face fell, and Andrew came out of the vi within a few seconds.


    Then, Andrew’s subordinates immediately stepped aside to make way for him.


    Both sides were still facing off with guns raised.This content ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    But Andrew strolled a few steps away from Valentin and stopped, narrowing his eyes and looking him up and down.


    Valentin looked sullen and asked indifferently, “Where is Ashley?”


    Andrew smiled and said emotionlessly. “She doesn’t want to leave with you.”


    Hearing this, Valentin immediately got furious and couldn''t suppress his anger anymore. He said coldly, “I''ll repeat it, where is


    Ashley?”


    This meant he had limited patience and issued an ultimatum.


    But Andrewughed, raised his eyebrow, and said, “I''ll repeat it. She doesn’t want to leave with you.”


    Then, Ashley''s voice sounded. “I do want.”


    The crisp and sweet voice suddenly broke the tense atmosphere.


    Valentin looked startled, immediately turned around, and saw Ashley. running out of the vi quickly.


    Seeing this situation, Andrew''s brows immediately furrowed.


    Ashley ignored him but ran straight towards Valentin and hurriedly rushed before him. She blinked at him with fearful eyes and


    said, “He is talking nonsense. | want to leave with you.”
