Save Myself from Desperation

The next afternoon. Ashley received a call from Laura and went to the Royal Entertainment.

Just as she arrived in front of the building, Evan. Bertha, and Jessica suddenly rushed over and blocked her way. Ashley furrowed her brows, unable to hide her disgust.

“Ashley.” Jessica spoke first, her voice soft and pitiful. “Ashley, it’s been so long since our parents have seen you. We specially came to your company and have been waiting for you since morning.”

“Ash...” Bertha rarely called her so affectionately, sounding a little uncomfortable. “Ashley, we’re all family. All the problems can be resolved. Don’t be angry. Come back to the Ramos family, alright?”

Evan, uncommonly gentle, said, “Come back. Let’s leave the past behind us, and let's not hold grudges anymore.”

Ashley looked at these three fake people with cold eyes. “I know your scheme. If you still have any dignity, disappear from my sight now.”

“Ashley, don’t say that. Our parents would be heartbroken.” Jessica’s eyes shimmered with tears. “It was my fault before. | apologize to you. Please don’t hold it against them.”

Ashley sneered, “I misspoke earlier. You have no clue what dignity means.”

“Ashley!” Evan’s tone turned harsh again. “I came here to apologize in person and ask you to come home. What else do you want?”

Ashley laughed mockingly. “You could only pretend to be a good father for a few seconds. You're more accustomed to being a villain, right?”

“You wretched woman, how dare you speak to your father like that!” Bertha grew agitated. Evan's face flushed with anger, but he remembered the purpose of his visit today and restrained himself from exploding.

“Ashley, no matter what, we are your biological parents. We took you back to the Ramos family and gave you a home for two years. We haven’t treated you unfairly. It was you who chose to cut ties with us. We didn’t do anything wrong to you.

“The Ramos family is facing difficulties now. You are popular and versatile. As a daughter, it’s your duty to help us! You really have no regard for the family? Are you just going to coldly watch the Ramos family go bankrupt?”

“We didn’t do anything wrong to you.

Ashley found his words amusing, and she genuinely laughed. She provocatively looked at Evan. “If you want to save the Ramos family, then die, and I'll help.”

Evan widened his eyes in shock. His authority was challenged, and he swore angrily, “You bitch! How can you say such things to me? | am your father!”

Ashley’s smile disappeared, and her gaze turned icy cold. “Evan, don’t be so conceited. Since the moment we severed ties, | have had no relations with you, especially not with an incompetent and irresponsible father like you.” After saying that, Ashley called over one of the security guards patrolling the entrance of the company.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

The security guard recognized Ashley as the company’s star and knew that she had been going out a lot lately, so he maintained a respectful attitude. “Ms. Ramos!”

Ashley pointed at the three of them without any expression on her face. “Get them out and make sure they never come near the company again. They’re too ugly, and it affects the company’s image.”

The security guard, aware of the ongoing situation between Ashley and the Ramos family, almost burst into laughter upon hearing Ashley’s comment about their ugliness. “Alright, Ms. Ramos, | understand!”

Bertha was breathless with anger. “Ashley, you've gone too far.” Evan wanted to reprimand Ashley again.

But before he could, the security guard had already taken action, ruthlessly expelling them to keep them away from the company’s premises and avoid tarnishing the company’s image.

With tranquility finally restored around Ashley, she turned around and walked into the company building to find Laura.
