Chapter 177
- Ashley shouted back his name as she saw Ferry running towards her. The uneasiness in his gaze stirred her, and she instinctively ran towards him, feeling immense relief at the sight of him. As they finally reached each other, Ferry quickly pulled Ashley into his arms, holding her passionately. Ashley held onto him tightly, continuing to sob uncontrollably.
- "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I thought I would have been able to come back!" Ashley cried out, her face buried in Ferry's broad chest.
- "No, it's not your fault, little one. It's my fault for trusting Emerald. I'll take responsibility for this. Ashley, I'm the one who should be sorry..." Ferry spoke with profound guilt, his arms wrapping around Ashley's waist. This only caused her tears to flow even more, overwhelmed by the weight of her actions.
