Cinderella Crazy
Gosh darn. Miss Ashelia, do you think so?

Sitting in her work chair, a woman seemed to be seriously thinking about something. For almost 3 hours he was silent there, thinking about what he should do to protect Kalia.

Not only did not know her, Ashley also did not know the routine of the girl. How can he protect people who are not on his radar?

On the other hand, he could not send someone to continue to keep an eye on the girl as it would likely be mistaken as sending a killer. He also could not spread people to find information about Kalia, wrongly, it could actually be considered as looking for the right timing to kill Asteron's daughter.

The woman kept racking her brain looking for other alternatives. But all of those things can still turn to him when Kalia is killed.

His eyes were closed, bracing himself to follow the only plan he kept.

Repairing his relationship with Kalia.

Naturally, people who try to improve relationships are the bully, not the bully. Like someone who tries to take the hearts of criminals so as not to become victims, the situation Ashley faces forces her to do just that.

Funny when viewed from the parable, considering Ashley is more worthy of being called a criminal than Kalia.

But the problem is, Ashley doesn't know how to make friends.

He only knows how to threaten, scare, make people misunderstand, flip speech, hurt, and kill. Which is all negative.

"Ga can be." Ashley said as she closed her eyes again.

Then he suddenly grabbed the ink box that was on his desk and immediately threw it forward. Precisely in the direction of a bouquet of white carnations that are clearly displayed on a small table beside the sofa.

A large bouquet of flowers sent by Daryl to pray for Ashley's recovery, and then misinterpreted by his workers as a sign of sincere love.

On the other hand, women who are not interested in the flower simply leave it without feeling touched or anything. Afterwards, Bellena puts it next to the sofa to appreciate Daryl's efforts.

But it bothers Ashley. His mind was piqued every time he saw something that was not normal for him. There were never any flowers in her office or room, just yet. It made the woman keep looking at him because she felt awkward. Moreover, the bouquet is so large that it can be hugged.

"Move to a place that ain't a cave."

Without waiting for a long time, Bellena immediately lifted the small table and the object on it away from Ashley's visibility. Walking slowly to the other side of her non-living room, she stopped by a window.

He put the table next to the window behind Ashley.

Ashley just looked at him and made Bellena somewhat hesitant to leave the table.

True, indeed the woman would not have seen it if it was placed there. But he felt Bellena was now a little changed. It's not as scared as it used to be. If it was the old Bellena, he would not use such a trick, he would immediately take the flower away or throw it away.

Although annoying, but Bellena's decision was not wrong. Ashley turned back to face forward, ignoring what her personal servant had just done.

His eyes then glanced at a book that was not covered nearby.

If he can complete his mission before Kalia dies then there will be no problem. But back to the original problem, the target is unknown.

Ashley actually got a little hint at the end, before Ashelia stopped writing and suddenly changed the topic. It's clearly written there, though,

when Marion became pregnant with her first child, it was over.

There were some passages that might address her true target, but that part had been ripped off by Ashelia for reasons that Ashley did not understand. As a result, the book left only a few traces that the woman needed to learn on her own.

Since Vincent is not Anthony, Ashley could have started acting aggressively and forced Marion to name her boss. But he has his own reasons for not doing that.

Considering the chance of failure and the time he has, Ashley needs to focus on securing Kalia first before continuing her mission. In other words, carry out 'friending' operations'.

Returning to her past, Ashley's classmates automatically become her friends because they are in the same class, the same school, and doing the same. What should he do to befriend Kalia when they don't have the same activities?

After hearing Bellena's explanation of Ashelia's routine before she studied black magic, a sense of wonder emerged from within the woman.

He was amazed at how Ashelia could still live without boredom despite not doing anything. He was also more amazed when he remembered the girl who 'didn' nothing' that could damage his organization.

Bellena then went on to mention the places that other nobles might use to waste time.

"Miss Ashelia had always avoided those places because Miss Derius was usually there." Bellena immediately made Ashley look at her.

"Why didn't you tell me from the beginning." Ashley said irritatedly as she frowned.

It's not Bellena's fault, Ashley herself didn't explain her plans to the girl.

The woman got out of her chair and immediately asked Bellena to drive her there. Meeting in the same place is natural enough to start a friendship.

Unfortunately, Ashley is not natural. His naturalness is in another aspect.

Not only did she never have any friends other than classmates, the almost 30-year-old woman was only used to gathering with violent people.

Looking down, looking at the girl sitting in front of him, Ashley grinned. With a haughty look on his face that did not look friendly at all, he greeted the girl.

"Look who's this? Don't you mind if the cave joins?"

Without giving Kalia a chance to answer, Ashley immediately sat down on the empty seat opposite the table. Like people who do not have manners, the woman ate snacks that Kalia had ordered.

Soon a servant came to serve the woman.

Bellena looks nervous standing behind Ashley who has been the center of the spotlight since entering the cafe. Different from the restaurant he had visited before, this cafe was quite famous because it was often visited by children of officials. Then of all the officials' children, Ashley's fame is the highest at the moment. No wonder they became curious about the figure of the woman.

Kalia just stared at him silently with a dislike look. So did his personal servant who was standing behind the girl.

Sipping her tea that had just been served, Ashley gave the woman behind Kalia a sharp gaze that was more deadly than a dagger. The woman immediately lowered her head feeling extremely intimidated by Ashley's superior aura.

Ashley's gaze then shifted slightly, moving towards the girl who became her operating taget. While slowly putting down her teacup, Ashley smiled. He tried to smile as hard as possible. But because it is too pushy, the look on his face actually looks like a loan shark who is trying to collect debt.

"Why did he? Yesterday spirit-"

"Jeez, Miss Ashelia, do you think so?" Sela Kalia suddenly had a topic she did not understand.

The girl's voice was so loud that the entire cafe could hear her. Ashley just silently tried to listen, at least the reason should be good enough because she dared to interrupt the woman's speech.

"I think it's pretty good." He looked at a man playing the piano.

All eyes turned to the piano player there for a moment, before returning to Ashley and Kalia's table. Unlike Ashley who is still silent staring at the man who has now stopped playing.

Clearly, he understood the intent of Kalia's actions.

"Then try playing a song."

"I want to hear what if the experts are playing." Kalia continues to provoke.

The girl is still not deterred.
