Chapter 740 People Who Are Very Important To Me

Actually, from the very beginning, Duncan had already lost Ashley to Andrew. She was never his, to begin with.

Sometimes, Duncan wondered whether things would be different if he met Ashley first.

However, there was no way to turn back the wheels of time. Being with Ashley was no more than a dream for Duncan.

Duncan left in a hurry. It was an effortless acquisition. The deal was done even before it began.

Ashley knew that he must have misunderstood something, but she made no explanation. It was good to keep it this way.

Now that the company had been acquired, Ashley thought she could do whatever she wanted.

Ashley was curious how Sarah would react when she knew that she became the president of the company and the largest shareholder.

Just as Ashley was about to go back to the company, she suddenly received a call from Cynthia. She had been back for a couple of days, but she was too busy to call Cynthia and Zen.

Ashley glanced at the jealous man beside her and warned, "Don't say a word."

"Why?"

"I'll explain it to you later."

Ashley answered the phone immediately after she finished her words. Cynthia's gentle voice came through, "Ash, where are you now? Aren't you going to drop by for a visit anytime soon?" Cynthia grumbled.

As Ashley's adopted mother, Cynthia was very gentle to her and treated Ashley and her kids very well. All in all, she was a humble yet elegant wealthy lady whom Ashley liked a lot.

"How could I forget you and dad? I've missed you all the time. I am dealing with some matters in the company recently, so I didn't have time to visit you the moment I came back. But I plan to come to see you tomorrow."

Zen snorted, "Excuses."

With a sigh, Ashley rolled her eyes.

But how could she explain all of this to Zen over the phone?

"Dad, it's not an excuse. Tell me when you are available at home. I will come to visit you."

"Anytime."

Why did she feel that he was about to get angry?

"Okay. We'll be right there today," said Ashley.

Seeing that Zen wanted to hang up the phone, Cynthia immediately took the phone in his hand and glared at him. "Well, Ash, we're looking forward to it. I'll ask Aunt Lin to prepare more food," she said softly.

"Okay. Thank you, mom."

Ashley let out a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

She looked at Andrew and said, "We'll be visiting someone tonight."

"Who are they?"

Andrew asked, hugging Ashley closer to his body.

"People who are very important to me."

Andrew held Ashley tighter and whispered, "Am I not the only important person to you?"
