Chapter169
After breakfast, Ashley began packing for the hot spring resort, but only her own things. She didn’t touch Chase’s. Even though he was her husband in name only, he wasn’t her man. He was with Tanya now. He probably wouldn’t appreciate her touching his belongings, and frankly, she didn’t care to. the housekeeper took care of Sam’s things.
Before, she would have worried about whether Sam had packed everything, even after the housekeeper had finished. Now, having finished packing her own bag, she simply wheeled her suitcase downstairs, ignoring Sam’s preparations.
After waiting a bit, Sam and Chase came down as well.
At the resort, Chase went off to make a call. While Ashley was unpacking in their room, Grandma entered, handing her a box. This is lingerie I got for you. Remember to wear it for the hot springs.”
Ashley knew what was inside from Grandma’s expression. She felt uncomfortable.“Grandma, I brought my own-”
“Don’t worry, it’s not anything outrageous. Look inside if you don’t believe me.” Ashley opened the box. As expected, it was a set of lingerie. The style seemed similar to what she usually wore. She relaxed.
Grandma smiled, urging her.“Make sure you wear it.”
Ashley:“…Okay.”
She’d barely agreed when Chase returned to the room, also seeing the contents of the box. Ashley quickly closed the lid.
