Chapter 863 You Are Always In My Heart

Andrew looked straight into Ashley's eyes.

But what he didn't know was that Ashley was amused by the way he uttered Jeremy's name.

"What are you thinking about? I just saw this news accidentally. And since I know that you and Jeremy
are best friends, I thought of asking you about it.

Are you jealous of him?" There was a trace of sarcasm in Ashley's tone.

"From now on, don't mention any other man's name except mine," Andrew ordered.

Ashley wondered if he was being too demanding.

"Okay," Ashley answered with a nod as if it was not a big deal at all.

"So, can you answer my question now?" she added.

"I don't know!" Andrew snapped.

Looking at the expression on Andrew's face, Ashley couldn't help but smile in amusement. "He is your
best friend. How come you don't know?"

"Is there a rule that you must know everything that's going on with your best friend?"

Andrew asked, looking sullen.

"Fine." Ashley didn't say anything more. They both stayed in the office quietly.

Recently, Chant had been visiting Clifford more frequently.

And since Clifford was always pissed off by his presence, they ended up arguing every time they'd
meet.



Meanwhile, Dany still went to the kindergarten as usual. However, this time, a stricter bodyguard
watched her closely.

Ashley wanted to get close to Dany. But every time she tried, the bodyguard would immediately stop
her.

Actually, Ashley wasn't afraid of the bodyguard. She was just scared that if she offended Cayn, he
would hide Dany from her forever.

So to divert her attention, Ashley helped Andrew in managing his company.

At times they would have a video conference together or deal with something outside the office.

Today, Ashley sat beside Andrew. They were both busy, so they didn't disturb each other.

Ashley read through the last document in her hand and signed it. After giving it to Alice, she stretched
herself and yawned.

Finally, all work for the day was done. She smiled with relief.

When Ashley turned to look at Andrew, she saw a lot of colorful lines moving up and down irregularly
on his computer screen.

Staring at the monitor, she couldn't help feeling dizzy. The figures were beyond her comprehension.

Every time she looked at those diagrams and graphs, she would just scratch her head and sigh.

Ashley walked to the French window and watched the view outside while massaging her nape.

She badly wanted to do some exercise.

All of a sudden, someone hugged her from behind.



"What are you thinking?" Andrew asked gently.

Ashley was startled at first. But when she smelled Andrew's familiar scent, she felt relaxed.

"I am thinking about how to get my daughter back," she answered honestly.

In fact, she had been thinking about it all the time.

If she could get Dany back, she would be the happiest mother in the world.

"How about me?"

Andrew asked as he turned Ashley to face him and looked into her eyes.

"You? Aren't you always here in my heart?" Ashley replied as she pointed at her left chest.

A satisfied smile curved on Andrew's mouth.

Ashley's answer really made him happy.

"Let's go home now?" he asked.

"Okay," Ashley agreed.

They were about to leave when Andrew's phone rang.

Andrew took out his phone from his pocket. Since Ashley was just beside him, she clearly saw the
name that appeared on the screen.

It was Jeremy.

Andrew answered it immediately.



"Come to the Starlight Club now. I'll wait for you here,"

Jeremy said.

His voice sounded a little husky and fragile.

Andrew's grip on Ashley's hand tightened.

The smile on his face turned into a frown in an instant.

If the call was from Greyson, Francis, or Clyde, he would directly refuse it.

Those three friends of his only called him to have fun.

Sometimes they would just rant about something trivial.

But Jeremy was different from them.

Jeremy and Andrew were of the same age. They also had similar backgrounds and experiences.

So, since Jeremy wanted to see him, Andrew knew that it must be something important.

"Okay. I'll be there in a bit,"

Andrew replied and hung up.

He then looked at Ashley, and they continued walking outside.

"Do you think it's something important?" Ashley asked as she looked at Andrew's serious face.

"Yes."

"Go and see him now. I can go home on my own," Ashley said softly.



"Go with me," Andrew suggested.

"I don't think that's a good idea," Ashley refused.

"Why?" Andrew stopped walking and looked at Ashley's eyes.

"If it's something important, I think he would prefer to talk to you alone. Besides, it's late now. I want to
go home and rest.

Just go. I will see you at home."

Eventually, Andrew gave in.

But he drove Ashley home first before he went to the Starlight Club.

The Starlight Club was one of their favorite hangouts, so all the employees there already knew Andrew.
As soon as he arrived, he was immediately escorted to the private room that Jeremy booked.

Andrew saw a lot of empty bottles on the table.

It seemed that Jeremy had been there for quite a while now.

He was sitting at the corner with a bottle of wine in his hand.

Although the room was dark, Andrew could tell that Jeremy was in bad shape.

"You didn't ask Francis and Greyson to come here?"

Andrew asked as he turned on the lights in the room. When the room turned bright, he frowned.

Jeremy was in disarray, sitting in the dark corner for many hours. And when the lights were turned on,
he was dazzled by them. He immediately covered his eyes with his hands.



Andrew walked over to him and pulled him up from the floor.

He felt strange because he had never seen Jeremy like this before.

Jeremy was always gentle and sensible in everyone's eyes.

After being friends for so many years, this was the first time that Andrew saw him drowning himself in
alcohol.

Andrew let Jeremy sit on the couch. It was only then that Jeremy opened his eyes.

"You're here," he said to Andrew.

"What happened?" Andrew asked gravely.

Andrew knew that Jeremy had encountered a lot of tough situations in the past.

But Jeremy had never been this weak.

Now, he couldn't help feeling that the man in front of him was a different person.

Instead of answering, Jeremy looked at the wine bottle in his hand and took another gulp.

He then looked at Andrew with eyes full of grief.
