Unbreak My Heart

Ashley said in a low voice, "Richard is my adopted child."

At that moment, all the bittersweet memories of Richard flashed in her mind. Even though they did have a hard time handling everything in the past, he had always been a good kid.

"Why?"

Andrew frowned at that.

"Why did you adopt a kid?"

Although Ashley was compassionate in nature, he knew she wouldn't adopt a little boy just like that.

Andrew knew Ashley well.

Ashley smiled and relaxed in her seat. "Why did I adopt him? I really don't remember. Maybe I adopted him because the child resembled me so much."

Ashley was an orphan herself, just like Richard.

She had been adopted by the Mu family when she was a kid. But now, she wished she had lived alone in the orphanage rather than be adopted by those people.

Andrew tightened his arms around Ashley. "I'm sorry."

If only he had continued looking for Ashley, things would have been different.

"You don't have to apologize. This is what we should have discussed already. If I had told you about it earlier, things would not have turned out like this."

Andrew thought of what happened five years ago, and his face darkened. 'Lesley Feng!' He repeated the word in his mind, viciously.

"How should we deal with her?" Andrew couldn't let Lesley go. He had to live without Ashley by his side for five painfully long years because of Lesley.

"What will you do?"

Ashley looked at Andrew with a surprised gaze.

"Why do you sound so surprised? I didn't say I'd do something to her right now, did I? Besides, if it hadn't been for Lesley, we wouldn't have suffered so much in these five years."

Andrew's melancholy tone amused her.

"How about we let her go?" Ashley hesitated before saying.

Ashley used to hate Lesley with all her heart. But now, she didn't want to think about that woman.

"No, she deserves punishment."

Ashley also

rtainly into men. Her heart was cold because she never met an eligible man before. And look at yourself. How could Ashley choose someone as dumb as you?"

Alice couldn't help herself. How could they say something like that about Ashley in front of her?

Alice was Ashley's biggest fan, after all.

She had to take multiple breaths to calm herself.

Alice went silent and walked right into the office, leaving the crowd in confusion. They murmured amongst themselves and concluded that he might be Ashley's boyfriend.

If Alice could hear their thoughts, she would scold them again.

What boyfriend?

He was her husband!

Just look at Fabio!

Andrew followed Ashley into her office and looked around. His office was a dull and lifeless place, but Ashley's was perfect for her.

The curtains were beige. On the side, the bookshelf was also densely packed with books. The sofa on the right was Ashley's favorite place with a small tea table in the middle that was creamy white. Andrew looked at three pots of luscious green plants on the desk. The corner of his mouth quirked up, realizing that this office was similar to his own.

Except for the color scheme, everything was the same. Ashley had clearly chosen that decoration style on purpose.
