So, Ashley put down her knife and fork, picked up her phone, typed a few words, and then handed it to Matthew to read.
“Why are you staring at me?”
Matthew was looking at her intently, feeling more and more that she resembled Ashley, so he blurted out.
“You’re very much like an old acquaintance of mine.”
Old acquaintance?
“Who?”
Ashley couldn’t be bothered to type on the keyboard, so she borrowed paper and a pen from a nearby waiter and continued to ask.
Matthew clenched his hand, then smiled bitterly:“My wife.”
Perhaps because the person in front of him resembled Ashley so much, Matthew completely let down his guard.
He poured out all the pain he had kept hidden in his heart for the past year to the person opposite him.
He
“I loved my wife very much, but due to some slanders from outsiders, I made a wrong judgment. In the end, my wife lost her life in a fire.”
“From then on, I’d dream every night. In my dreams, I could always grab her hand in the sea of fire, but every time we were about to escape, she’d break free from my hand and throw herself into the flames. And ever since her ashes were scattered by her rival in love, I’ve never dreamt of her again.”
“For the past year, I’ve visited many temples, but every abbot’s answer to me was that she didn’t want to see me.”
Emotions accumulated over many years finally collapsed at this moment. The man, usually so ruthless, actually covered his face and wept bitterly in front of a strange woman.
If Ashley were just an ordinary person, she would definitely have been moved by Matthew’s love story, and might even have handed him a tissue as he cried remorsefully.
Unfortunately, she was the female protagonist in Matthew’s story.
She even knew that Matthew had hidden too many details in his words, but she was too lazy to expose him.
The Ashley who once loved him more than life itself had long since died in that fire.
The current Ashley could be anyone, but she would absolutely not have any connection with Matthew again.
Ashley’s silence finally made the man in front of her realize his lapse in composure.
He quickly held back his tears and recomposed himself.
Finally, he apologized to her and politely offered to escort her back to her hotel.
But right at that moment, an unexpected incident occurred.
An out–of–control car suddenly sped towards them, its dazzling high beams illuminating Ashley’s pale face.
“Watch out!”
Ashley, who was standing straight in place, was instantly pushed by a force of gravity to the roadside, and the mask on her face also fell off instantly.
But she could no longer care about anything else, she quickly looked back, only to see Matthew, who had been thrown flying by inertia!
The scene instantly became chaotic.
The screams of passersby, police sirens, and ambulance sounds mingled together, assaulting Matthew’s ears.
But he couldn’t care about anything else, staring blankly at the woman in front of him who had revealed her true face, his eyes filled with disbelief.
“Ash?!”

In the hospital, Matthew on the stretcher clutched Ashley’s hand tightly.
He had too many questions about Ashley coming back from the dead.
But the only thing he could do now was hold onto her, not letting Ashley go.
He was afraid that he was dreaming, he was afraid that she would disappear again when he woke up.
But even with Matthew’s strong will, he couldn’t resist the coma caused by excessive blood loss.
Before he entered the operating room, the doctor just gently moved, and Matthew’s hand naturally dropped.
Ashley rubbed her reddened wrist while watching the operating room door close tightly in front of her.
She turned to leave.
Manu
After all, her identity had been exposed in front of Matthew, and if she stayed, who knows how much more entanglement she would have with
him.
