Chapter 290 Heartbreak

He wouldn't dare let Greyson teach him.

Johnny was afraid that he'd lose half his fingers on his hands by the time Greyson finished teaching him.

He wasn't called the 'Little Devil of J City' for nothing.

Ashley stirred and began to wake up. When she slowly opened her eyes, the first thing that she saw was the white ceiling. She blinked hard trying to adjust her eyes to the brightness. Ashley could also smell the distinct scent of disinfectant solution.

Her mind was blank, and she was bewildered.

She felt that her brain wasn't functioning at that moment.

'Where is this?

Why am I here?

Am I not in the deserted factory anymore?'

When she thought of that place, her face turned deathly pale.

She clenched the sheet in panic and could still feel the disgusting hands groping her body.

"Ehhh..."

She could feel the bile in her mouth, and the bitter taste made her retch.

Ashley pulled the IV out of her vein and tossed the blanket aside. She was about to get out of bed

when Johnny caught sight of her. He quickly rushed into the room to her side. "Miss Mu, don't move, please. You're still very weak. You're on IV now. Anything you need, just tell me and I'll go get it for you."

Johnny was startled.

When he opened the door to her room, he saw her pluck the needle out and get out of bed. What if she had fainted and fell down?

When Ashley saw Johnny, she grabbed his hand tightly and asked, "Where is Andrew? Tell me, where is he?"

Johnny's heart lurched when he heard her mention Andrew's name. 'Is she going to hold him responsible for what happened to her?

Does she blame her husband for not protecting her?

I have seen how much Andrew genuinely cares about her. If he knew that Miss Mu blames him for what had happened, his heart would be broken.

I didn't plan scrupulously. If because of that, Miss Mu had a falling out with him, then that would be my biggest sin.

Maybe then, the punishment for me wouldn't be as simple as getting shipped to Africa.

Anyway, that is not a big deal. What's important now is that Miss Mu understands who

moved an inch, Andrew turned back impatiently to see who it was.

Johnny had asked him to go and get some sleep. But with Ashley still unconscious, how could he possibly sleep?

When he turned back, he saw Ashley standing there with a pale face and a panicked expression.

His angry face changed abruptly, and he leaped out of bed immediately. In a heartbeat, he was standing by her side and asked anxiously, "What are you doing here? When did you wake up?"

Ashley blinked at him with tears rolling down her cheeks. "You just told me to get out."

He wiped her tears away and gently cupped her face in his hands. "Please don't cry, honey. I didn't mean to yell at you. I thought it was Johnny or one of the other guys. Please forgive me."

"So, you didn't want me to get out?"

In Andrew's presence, she suddenly felt very vulnerable, like a little girl that needed affection.

It was a side of her that even she didn't know about until now.

"Of course not, honey. Why would I ask you to leave? I'm so happy that you're okay and here with me," said Andrew lovingly.

"How are you feeling? Do you feel pain in any part of your body?" He looked at her with concern.

"I'm okay now. Don't worry about me." Ashley threw herself into his arms.

Andrew put his arms around her and said with resignation, "Be careful."

When she was in his arms, she found that something was wrong with Andrew.
