Hi dear. How about this chapter? Did it make you satisfied?
It didn't take long for the shadow guards to turn the tables. The seven remaining assassins lay covered in blood. Two of them were unconscious and already under guard. Not long after, a helicopter managed to land not far from the scene. Asher returned to the car's location and carried Valencia's bridal style into the helicopter. Judging from her condition, Valen's body looked increasingly pale. Asher checked Valen's breathing and heartbeat several times, hoping the breath was still there even if it was weak. "Damn it! Why is her condition deteriorating!" Asher growled, annoyed at being unable to do anything when his woman's condition was critical. He unconsciously showed his concern. The helicopter began to take off with the best pilot Dragon Knight had and flew to one of the nearest hospitals in the Burnley township, Broughton Country. Fifteen minutes passed, and not far from the Burnley hospital, there was a large field, and the helicopter landed there. Asher went out to take V
"What tricks are you going to play, Asher? I definitely won't fall into the same hole!" Valen replied. She looked at her interlocutor with confidence and a hint of annoyance."Whatever you want to think of me. If I make you love me in half a year, you must accept your status as Mrs. Asher. But I will let you go if I fail and will not interfere with your life." Asher said, releasing his embrace and raising both hands by his words."What tricks are you going to play, Asher? I'm not going to fall into the same hole!" Valen replied. She looked at her interlocutor with confidence and a hint of exasperation there."Whatever you want to think of me. If I make you love me in half a year, you must accept your status as Mrs. Asher. But I will let you go if I fail and will not interfere with your life." Asher said, releasing his embrace and raising both hands at his words.Valen did not waste that. She quickly moved from Asher's lap and chose to sit back against the headboard.Released from Ashe
"Hn. Think of it that way." Asher hugged Valencia and stroked the long hair that was left loose. "Remember one thing, dear. No matter how cruelly the world betrays you, there is still me here who will always embrace and support you no matter what. I'm not asking you to trust my words, but trust your feelings and your heart." Asher spoke softly and touched Vallen's heart deeply. "Aaugh..." Valencia whimpered. It seemed that her injured arm was accidentally pressed by Asher's hand while hugging her. Hearing her moan, Asher released his embrace and looked at Valencia's body, which was partially scarred. Luckily, the gunshot wound was not open and was safe. Asher sighed, "Thank goodness the wound did not re-open. Sorry, dear. I think I hugged you too tightly earlier." "It's okay. You're just like that." Vallen replied curtly. Spending time with Asher made Vallen know a little about the personality of the man who married her forcefully and shamelessly. "It looks like I must get used t
"Vallen, no matter how much you hate Mr. Asher, you are officially married. I'm just suggesting you take this opportunity to get back at the people who did cruel things to you and continue investigating who you are. A man like Asher must have extensive connections. It will be easier for you to find out your true identity." "That was the original purpose of it all. Until now, I've been plagued by strange dreams, making me uncomfortable." Vallen's heart ached as she remembered the painful dreams that continued to haunt her. Once again, Raisa hugged Vallen, who was still weakened. She knew how Vallen was during her time at Addison's residence. There was no affection, let alone love, from them. "You can achieve what you're trying to achieve. I believe that, Vallen." Vallen leaned her heavy head on Raisa's shoulder, hoping the burden on her heart would ease a little. At that moment, Aunt An entered the room as the door was slightly open. She was seen carrying some gifts and placing t
Vallen shooed Luze away without budging and looked the other way. She had already suffered enough with Addison's family. She did not want to feel the hurt and pain for the umpteenth time just because of a jerk like Luze.On the other hand, Luze, still standing next to Vallen, began to crouch down to align their height and tried to reach the tip of Vallen's left hand. Meanwhile, Raisa, who saw this then, did not remain silent. She got up from her seat with a displeased look towards Luze and pushed Luze's hand away from touching Vallen.Remind you of this! Raisa acted like that not because she was jealous but because she didn't like Luze, who had wasted Vallen - her best friend."What are you doing here, Luze? Isn't it enough that you're playing behind Vallen's back and breaking her heart?" snapped Raisa on behalf of Vallen, who remained silent.There was no resistance from Luze to Vallen's cold treatment. Instead, he stood back up and glanced at Raisa, who was trying to dissuade her f
Raisa had brought Vallen back into the infirmary. It was left to Asher and Luze, who was still silent with many eyes already watching their argument. Not wanting to make a scene, Luze approached and whispered something to Asher. "What do you want, and who are you? Why are you targeting Vallen and making her submit before you?" Luze asked several questions, his eyes glaring at Asher. He seemed very unwilling for the person who was once a part of his life to belong to someone else. What a disgusting thought! Asher gave Luze a smirk and patted Luze's shoulder heavily and firmly, "You have no right to know! And this is for the last time, don't ever interfere with Vallen's life. If necessary, get out of her sight forever. Because if you dare to do so, I will not hesitate to drag you to hell right then and there! Never underestimate the threat of an Asher William Xander. Keep that in mind!" Asher replied, still calm, but his threat made Luze stiffen with his words. He then left Luze to en
"So this is your true nature, honorable Mr. Asher. Imposing everything in front of you and assuming everything that happens in front of you is my fault?! Listen, Mr. Asher. Without you telling me, I... Vallen will always remember my status as your paper wife. And don't worry about my feelings. Because I will not turn to look at the men of the past." With a bitter smile, Vallen violently released Asher's hand, the flame of anger she still showed in front of Asher as a form of protest. For a moment, Asher was dumbfounded by the earnestness behind Vallen's words. In some ways, his heart was in awe of the wife before him. Because for Asher, Vallen was the first woman who dared to refute his words firmly and fearlessly. She was also the first woman who refused to marry him at a time when all women adored him and even gave themselves up to satisfy his desires. 'A wife like you, only a fool would waste her. Honey... I will win your heart, make you accept your status, and love me completely.
After Asher's departure, Vallen silently observed the surroundings, her heart grumbling incoherently like a woman with a monthly visitor. 'Why am I annoyed at being left behind by Asher? Isn't this what I wanted? Arggh... Vallen. Don't tell me you've fallen under that jerk's charm.' Because she was bored, Aunt An had not come to pick her up to return to the mansion. Vallen chose to get up from her bed to step slowly out of the infirmary, which she found stuffy even though it was so spacious. In front of the door of the infirmary. Vallen felt that he was being watched from an unknown place for a moment. Instincts from the work of the brain and senses that he did not realize before seemed to stick out from his subconscious. As if it was a habit that she often did. Slowly but surely. In the center of the crowd in the hospital, Vallen observed while continuing to wander and only relying on instincts that somehow felt more sensitive. "Strange, this kind of feeling. Why do I feel like
