100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-18 Ally
Ashley's POV:Liam had taken a full fifteen minutes to come back, and he was accompanied by two other staff members. After he rushed to his seat, the other two employees start to distribute the files to every board member in the room.I glance around the room, noticing the tension and impatience on everyone's faces. As soon as Ethan receives his file, he flips it open and his expression turns grim."I am appalled!" Ethan exclaims, his voice echoing in the conference room. "I don't have the words after looking at the company's finances… I can't even believe that it was possible for financial data to be recorded in this way! What even… I can't decide which laurels to bestow on the accounts department."I don't need him to point out the obvious. The numbers are a mess, and anyone with even a basic understanding of finance can see that. I glance around the table, noticing the uneasy shifting of some of the board members. But just when I think Ethan has said enough, in a move that far ex

Ashley's POV:I follow Ethan outside, quickening my pace and almost rushing to avoid any unwanted attention or any more comments about our relationship. On reaching the company doors, I spot Ethan's car that is waiting right outside, and he's already inside by the time I catch up. I duck my head and slide into the car, feeling a trace of nervousness. The driver shuts the door, and the car starts moving, leaving the Waverly Group's driveway merging into the traffic. It takes me some time to muster my courage, but I finally clear my throat. "I don't know how else to say it, but I sincerely wanted to thank you, because I wouldn't have been able to attend the shareholders' meeting otherwise."I steal a glance at Ethan, expecting some sort of reaction, but he just continues staring ahead, his expression unreadable. Surprisingly, his silence feels like a slight improvement from his reaction yesterday.Feeling somewhat encouraged by his lack of response, I continue, my voice barely above

Ashley's POV: I look around, trying to get a sense of where I am, but it is totally useless. There is nothing around here—no shops, no buildings, just the endless stretch of highway. It is pouring down hard, and I clutch my bag as I walk over to one side of the road. My clothes are already drenched, and I can’t find any shelter. Not that it would help much now… I pull out my phone and curse under my breath. Only 4% battery left. Great, I can't even call a cab, what if my phone dies on me?Feeling desperate, I dial Tiffany's number, feeling guilty for disturbing her in the middle of the day… but it's not like I have any other options. "Hello? Tiffany, listen… are you free right now? Yeah, I need a favor from you..."_________Almost twenty minutes have passed since I managed to send Tiffany my location after finding a small patch of connectivity, and my phone died moments later. I jolt to my senses when a red car screeches to a halt on the side of the road. The door flies open, an
Last Updated : 2024-06-03100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-21 Hungry
Ashley's POV:By the time I step out of Tiffany's home, a sleek black car pulls up in front of me, halting my steps. The windows roll down, and a man asks, "Miss Waverly? Mr. Johnson sent me here to fetch you."For a moment, I stand there, startled. Ethan sent him here? How did he know where I was? But the next moment, I remember his call… it had to be something urgent that he had called me for, right? Thinking this, I get in the car regardless, deciding to ask him about it later.Lost in my thoughts, I barely notice the journey passing by until the driver presses the brakes and says, "We are here, ma'am. Please head inside the goods."I step out to find a grand mansion in front of me, gleaming in the sunshine, and it almost hurts my eyes to look at it for so long. I stand there for a moment, taking in the imposing structure before taking a deep breath and stepping inside. My breath is knocked out of me at the sheer size and elegance of this house, how am I even going to find him i

Ashley's POV: I continue feeding Ethan the soup and pasta, taking a few bites myself whenever he insists. Until finally, the bowls are empty and I exhale a sigh of relief. “I'll be right back." I get my purse from the bar counter. I am sure I had some medication in there… After rummaging through it for a moment, I find what I need and bring it to him with a glass of water "You'll feel better if you sleep for some time," I say softly. Ethan hums again, his eyes already drooping as he puts his head on the pillow. Within minutes, his soft breathing tells me he is already asleep. I stand there for a moment, unsure of what to do next. He had clearly asked me to come here for some reason, so how could I leave? But it doesn’t seem appropriate to stay here like this either, while he is asleep. At the very least, I know I can't stay in the same room, that would be unimaginably creepy, right? So, I wander out of the room, but still, there is no sign of anyone else being present

Ashley's POV:“Get out!”These words are enough for me to leave this place, and never turn my head back ever again… or abandon any way in the direction of which Ethan Johnson has ever looked towards. But then I hear his last sentence, that I am hundred percent sure, has been thrown on my face like a verbal slap. "But remember! If you take even a single step out of this house, consider it to be the last day of our arrangement. I will call off the deal, and then you can have fun dealing with your succession drama."I don't know what happened to me at the moment, but I feel my anger boiling in my veins.I turn around and without wasting a second, I take three large strides towards him, crossing the distance between us before giving him any chance to react to what I am doing. It's only fair, he didn't give that chance to me, either; I pulled him closer by his collar and put my lips on his.I hear a low, annoyed growl in his throat, thinking that he would hesitate or object. But the very

Ethan's POV:I don't know what happened to me the moment I saw tears in her eyes… the eyes that resemble so much to the ones I want to see crying badly. But I guess I had previously overestimated myself in the imagination of hating Emily. No matter what she has done to me… what her presence, name, and even resemblance is doing to me… I still care about her.I know I was swayed away by the kiss and my mind had become blank for a moment, making me realize that I wasn't completely sober yet. Otherwise, there was no way I would have let her stay here, had I been in a completely composed state.After that point, everything just started to act on its own, and I was just going with the flow. But after I saw the tears flow from her eyes, it was really hard for me to continue without knowing the reason behind it… even though stopping myself was the more difficult task to be done.“Nothing, it's just… it's just.”I return back to reality when she tries to mumble something, as I feel a hand cla

Ashley's POV:My eyes open with a sharp pain in my waist, like I have somehow landed on the cold hard ground after falling from the soft cushions of clouds.And within a few seconds, I realize that my thoughts are not completely false; moments ago, I had really landed on the rough ground from the soft bed, sending a jolt of pain up my back and jerking me awake. But the question plaguing me isn't just how it happened… there is yet another clause attached to it- why? And just like the other surprises– or say, shocks– going on in my life one after another, I don't have to wait for the revelation of this one either. Because the moment I touched my waist and let out a squeal because of pain, I heard a slightly sleepy yet deep and clear voice coming from above.“Miss Waverly, who told you that after we are done with our business… you are allowed to stay here at night, with me? Wasn't I clear enough on my terms that I don't like to see the person I have spent the night with, in front of m

100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-226. Till death do us part
Ashley's POV:I take a glance at the clock, I have a few minutes to myself before we have to leave for lunch. After saying goodbye to Mike, I plan on finally telling my feelings to Ethan when he is sober… judging by the state he was in last time, he probably isn't going to remember anything about our conversation. Just as I lift the second earring from the dresser, my phone rings, vibrating with an urgency. It is a call from my assistant, and I receive it quickly. “Yes M–”“Ma'am, did you see the news? The quotations from Mr. Johnson's bids are all over the place just before the bid is due to start, and everyone is speculating that it is you. News agencies are reaching out for an interview ma'am, what are we supposed to do?”“Okay… I will see what I have to do.”I disconnect the call, feeling a pit in my stomach. Of course, the public opinion will be against me now, as he has just said over the call. But not only that, Ethan might doubt me too… because I am the single person he ha
100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-225. Goodbye Lunch
Ashley's POV: Although I have mentioned to Mike that I have to pick Adrin up, I still drive towards the church, knowing that I have lied to him.But why do I have to lie to him? Because if we are going to marry each other, it should be normal… a normal gesture of affection between couples, right? I gulp, realizing that the answer is painfully obvious. I know I am not being honest with anyone… neither him, nor with my own self. Caught up in this dilemma, I reach home, knowing that today is scheduled as Ethan's turn with Adrin.To my surprise, I find Adrin sleeping peacefully on his bed, having changed out of his uniform. And Ethan's car is still parked by the entrance…Finally, I notice Ethan… sitting on the floor, beside the couch, which is probably why I missed him in the first place. I walk around the couch with careful footsteps, until he comes fully into my view… and so does the drink in his hand, which he is chugging like no tomorrow. Rushing towards him, I quickly snatch t
100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-224. Do me a favor, Marry me !
Ashley's POV:Nobody can imagine the pain and frustration I have spent my night with… aside from stomping on my own pride and having to call off the engagement for the second time, the papers of the custody were something that I was fearing the most.But now when I have them in my hands, the only emotion I have left inside me is anger.Pure rage running through my veins like molten lava…It is in this anger that I rush to his house to confront him, the house I'm extremely familiar with. And without any consideration, I make a beeline for the stairs, directly barging into his room without even knocking or waiting.But the moment I step inside, I realize what a mistake I have made, because Ethan is in there… half- dressed as he is changing his clothes. It takes me a moment to process, and I have probably been staring at him for a few minutes straight before I spin on my heel, facing the door. The word “sorry" is on the tip of my tongue, but he chuckles before that;“Umm… hey Princess!
100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-223. Real Dad
Ashley's POV:The incident of me falling and Ethan going completely insane because of panic, has done nothing else but to add itself in the list of evidence for something I don't want to acknowledge.His reaction was not only enough for letting me know the feelings in his heart, but his actions were enough to spread this news through the entire office too!And this is what has been keeping me awake at nights… I know that Mike obviously knows everything about that event, but that's not all. What's bothering me more than that, is the fact that he hasn't asked anything from me.At the same time, I haven't asked anything from him, either. But I know we can't go on like this… I need to tell him the truth and ask him the reason for his absence.With this thought, I step on the brakes, snatching my purse from the passenger seat as I get down in front of Mike's house. I step inside without knocking, knowing that he lives alone and my shouts are enough to tell him about my arrival.“Mike!! Mik
100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-222. Call the ambulance
Ashley's POV: Even though I have committed to prepone the engagement, to save myself from the great disaster… I don't know what exactly I am supposed to do next.However, before I can do anything, my phone chimes, notifying me that I have received a text from Mike. The text is simple, with several sample invitations attached to it.“Please check these out, and let me know whichever one you like.”I quickly select the one that I have opened the first out of all, and text him back.“Should we announce a party before the engagement?”The text bubbles pop up within seconds, materializing into a reply soon enough. “Yes! I am ready to do everything which makes you happy. If you want to announce a party, then we will call one.”“Thank you!! Can you get me this invitation ready within five minutes, even in digital format? I need to send it to someone urgently.”“Whatever you want sweetheart.”With this message, he signs off and comes back within five minutes. “Here you go! See you tomorro
100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-221. Reschedule
Ashley's POV:At last, I managed to drop Ethan off after lying to him, only to reach the hospital and find Adrin awake and sitting up on his bed. The moment I walk in, the first question Adrin has asked me is,“Mumma, where is Dadda?”But I am way too caught up in my inner conflict to give him a logical reply, or even think of one. Everything that happened in the daycare is still overwhelming my senses to the extent where I just pull him closer to my chest.Hugging him tightly, as I finally ask him a question which has been bugging me for too long. “Adrin!! Baby, why didn't you tell mumma that the kids in the day care are bullying you–”“Because Dadda has told me that I am a big boy, who has to protect his mother till he is not there to protect both of us, and anyways, I am a brave boy!! Who knows how to protect himself–”“Awww!! Come here my sweetie pie, who taught you all this…?”“Dadda!!!”Adrin exclaims, before the next words tumble out of his mouth without any breaks. “Mumma,
100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-220. Fifteen minutes maximum
Ashley's POV:Even I wasn't very hopeful at first, but somehow, I have finally convinced Ethan to stand up on his feet, almost dragging him out of the church when he's practically in a waking coma. And knowing his miserable state, I know he isn't going to be able to drive at all. So the best idea that comes into my mind is to drop him to his house first, and then rush back to the hospital.Although, it is the first time I have seen him cry like this… and while seeing him in this state, the logical woman inside me has been compelling me to tell him the truth for a while now.But the mother inside me has been continuously warning me against it; and the best way to deter me is by telling me the consequences of my honesty.Since the moment he has started crying bitterly, the overly logical mother that also lives inside me, who believes in teaching her child the chapter of honesty, has suddenly turned into a bloody hypocrite. Going against her beliefs, she has started to preach another le
100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-219. Punishments
Ashley's POV:I have never seen Ethan as angry as he is right now; like he isn't made of bones and muscles, but thunder and rage. I don't have a single doubt in my mind that he is ready to tear down the entire building if Lily wouldn't appear in front of him within minutes.The director understands the assignment and quickly calls Lily Allen to the office; as the policies protecting her staff have gone out of the window real quick.With the summons now being sent for Miss Allen, the fear of Ethan ripping the soul straight out of her body starts to scare me. I mean I want the worst punishment for her in this entire world… I want her as far away as she could from the kids, but I don't want her to become the victim of Ethan's wrath right away! “Ethan, calm down…”I find myself tugging at his sleeve, trying to get through to him. He flashes me a look, glancing at me only through the corners of his eyes. “Calm down? Ash!! You still want me to calm down, even after hearing the crap that
100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-218. Ice cream truck
Ethan's POV:The moment I heard the words of Stephanie, I could feel something breaking inside me.In my life, I have come across many monsters disguised in human appearance, and probably, I am also one of them.But none of them have turned out to be so cruel, to be capable of saying these types of things in front of not just one kid, but his entire class… and not only that, but to actually ask other kids to stay away from that poor soul and bully him!And saying that it's all okay because he doesn't have anyone to fight for his rights…“Stephanie, sweetheart! Can you please tell us what happened that day?”Ashley's words bring me back to reality at the critical moment, before my guilt would have killed me with its sharp claws. And as soon as her voice pauses after posing the question, Stephanie chimes in with an enthusiastic yes, and continues with her narration.This is the real bliss of childhood; they don't really understand the things which have hurt them in the past, but now, it
