Save Myself from Desperation

out of the dim and bloody storage room, looking very upset.

George glanced at the sunset on the horizon. Only Leonard could heal Ashley now. But when exactly would Ashley wake up...

The treatment that followed required acupuncture only twice a week. However, Leonard couldn’t stop worrying about Ashley and visited daily. to check on her.

After his visits, Leonard would report everything back to Andrew without any changes.

Karen and Brian constantly stayed in the ward. Their brows furrowed. with worry every day as they watched Ashley lying unconscious.

Joseph and Claire brought Zain every day, hoping to see Ashley wake up

soon.

That afternoon, after taking Zain home, Joseph returned to the ward.

Valentin had been steadfastly guarding the ward these days.

Ashley being unconscious was already hard for him. Seeing Valentin becoming more silent and thinner made it even harder. Moreover, he was counting the days. It had been another ten days.

Leonard had said that under the best circumstances, with slow and gradual treatment, Ashley might wake up in ten days to half a month now, Ashley still lay there quietly, showing no signs of waking up.

Joseph agitated, ran his fingers through his hair, wishing he could be th one lying there unconscious instead of Ashley. Suddenly, the phone on the table beside him pinged. Picking it up, Joseph saw it was Ashley’s phone, which had been kept charged these days. It was a message from Miranda.

[Ashley, you haven't been answering my calls or texts for a few days. Are you avoiding me? Please don’t! Please don’t ignore me!]

Joseph sighed. Considering Ashley's fame and influence, her unconscious state hadn’t been revealed to the public. 115 Chapter 370

If it were known, it would definitely cause a stir. There might even be unscrupulous paparazzi trying to find out which hospital Ashley was in to sneak in and take pictures.

And, not wanting to worry Miranda, they hadn't told her the truth either.

Miranda just sent this message because she probably felt left out and sad.

Joseph was hesitating about what to do. Should he make an excuse like he did a few days ago and briefly reply to Miranda? Suddenly, Ashley’s phone rang. Miranda was calling again.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Joseph didn’t know what to do and looked at Valentin, who was standing by the hospital bed. “Valentin, Miranda is calling again. And Jaden, Bryce, and other friends have been texting her these past few days. Should we just turn off her phone?”

But if they turned off the phone and couldn't be reached, her friends. might think something was really wrong. Valentin thought for a moment, his voice a bit hoarse. “Give me the phone.”

Joseph quickly handed him the phone.

Valentin slid the screen and answered the call.

“Ashley! You finally answered my call!”

Miranda was thrilled on the other end.

Valentin was silent for a moment before speaking. “Ashley is in the hospital.”

Miranda immediately recognized Valentin’s voice and opened her eye. wide in surprise. “Mr. Kingsley? What did you just say? Ashley is in the hospital? Is she sick?”

Valentin replied, “Yes.”

Miranda was anxious. “Is it serious? What's wrong with her? Which hospital? I’ll come to see her!” Valentin gave her the hospital’s address.

Joseph was surprised. Did he tell Miranda directly?

Thinking about it, Ashley and Miranda were close. Hearing that Ashley

was sick, Miranda was so worried. Telling her seemed fine.

Twenty minutes later, Joseph went to the hospital entrance and brought Miranda into the ward.

As Miranda walked into the ward and saw Ashley lying on the hospital. bed, seemingly asleep, she quietly stepped closer and whispered, “What happened to Ashley?”

Joseph pressed his lips and told her about how Tyler had caused Ashley to fall into a coma. Miranda was stunned. She had thought Ashley was just sleeping, but she was actually in a coma. And she had been in a coma for seventeen days.

Looking at Ashley lying still with her eyes closed, Miranda felt a surge of sadness. She had thought Ashley was ignoring her these days, not knowing that such a serious thing had happened.

Tyler was terrible! He was like a filthy rat in a sewer! Miranda was both angry and upset, choking up as she asked, “When will Ashley wake up?”

Joseph glanced at Valentin’s expression and said slowly, “The doctors aren’t sure. Maybe she'll wake up in ten days or half a month, maybe one or two months. Miranda, keep Ashley’s coma a secret for now, okay?”

Miranda wiped her tears and nodded immediately. “I understand.”

She stayed in the ward until the evening before leaving reluctantly.

When Miranda returned to her apartment building, she unexpectedly into Ryan.

“Miranda!” Ryan rushed over as soon as he saw her. “Where have you been? Why are you back so late?”

As he finished asking, he noticed Miranda’s red eyes, looking like she had been crying.

Ryan’s expression tightened. “Why are you crying? Did someone bully you? Who? I'll beat them up!”

Miranda wiped her tears again. “No one bullied me. Why are you here? | told you before, stop coming to see me.” 09:54

Hearing this, Ryan felt like his heart was being cut with a knife. He had. been blind to Ashley’s goodness and had also missed his chance with Miranda.

Now he knew his mistake and wanted to make amends, but... Ryan looked dejected. “Miranda, | know you don’t want to see me, but I’m really worried. | haven't seen Ashley these days, nor have | seen any news about her online. You're close to her. How is she doing? Can you tell me?”

Miranda, reminded of Ashley lying unconscious in the ward, felt a pang in her heart and took a deep breath. “Ashley is not part of the Ramos family, not your sister. Stop bothering her and making her angry.”

Ryan became anxious. “I know Ashley isn’t our sister, but we’ve done so many wrong things to her in the past. We want to make it up to her, to have a chance to be good to her!”

“She doesn’t care.” Miranda left those words behind, glanced at Ryan, and ran into the apartment building. Ryan stood in the desolate night, engulfed in endless regret and loneliness. Several days passed, and there was still no sign of Ashley waking up.

However, as soon as Colby stepped into the living room, Andrew sen someone approaching and instantly became alert, a vigilance honed from years in dangerous environments.

Colby was really out of options. He felt uneasy with Ashley not waking up...

The next morning, Colby went to the living room to ask if Andrew wanted to visit Ashley in the hospital that day, but he couldn’t find him anywhere. ‘Where has he gone?’
