Tristan kept quiet the entire time which made Ashley nervous. "Say something?" she asked as she couldn't handle the silence between them.
Sensing the distressed look on her face, Tristan composed his appearance and kissed her lips.
"I support you no matter what decisions you take now or in the future" his assuring words calmed Ashley and she quickly hugged him.
"I love.... so much Tristan. I don't know what will I do without you" she said pulling away and watched him give her amusing look.
"It should be me who should confess those words of yours. You mean the world to me Ash and I don't know what will happen to me if I don't have you by my side" Tristan looked calm from the outside but deep inside Gabriel's presence around her kept bothering him.
The man who didn't think twice before killing his father wasn't trustworthy, and that was the reason why he didn't counterattack his army even after learning about his new identity as Riel.
