100 Nights Contract with Mr.CEO Ch-181. Five hours
Ethan's POV: I gritted my teeth so loudly that I notice Maria flinching in fear, and everyone cowers a little, having noticed the fire in my eyes– leaving the only person whom it is actually meant for.And I am about to snatch her back in my arms, when one of the stupid medics notices the blood dripping from my hand, from where it has been scratched up by the friction of the rope.Apparently, that alone is enough for them to decide that I am in need of the medical attention that should be going to her, as they quickly rushed towards me and grabs the hand I have raised to snatch the love of my life back into my arms.“Oh my God! You need a proper bandage bro, thank God, it was just rope and I have seen the whole thing happening in front of my eyes. Or else, with the depth of the wound and judging by the flow of blood, I would have assumed that the cut is because of some sharp object and would have ended up suggesting stitches…”“I don't want any bandages, just leave me alone. I was bu

Ethan’s POV: That medic has really turned out to be a man of his words– he indeed brought me to the hospital… only for me to want to admit yet another patient there.The moment I step out of my car, I find none other than Mike– still standing in the corridor while holding Ashley in his arms.My blood starts to boil at the dumbness of this idiot, and the same goes for the hospital staff!Without entertaining any second thoughts, I sprint towards him. “Mr. Huston! What in the world do you think you are doing here? Carrying her in your arms, even after knowing that she is claustrophobic and has still not gained her consciousness, even after this long–”“She is claustrophobic too!?”The panic is evident, on both his face and his voice.This girl, and her habit of hiding her problems from the person she stays with!!Just for the reason of not wanting to bother them in any way, she ends up forgetting the basic fact that no one will be able to stay unbothered if they don't know about her c

Ethan's POV:As unpleasant as Mike's voice is to my ears, his words are more jarring to my soul. With one simple statement, he has reminded me of a harsh reality which I had almost started to forget: she isn't mine to claim right now.I know this phase won't last long, because she is mine… she was mine, and she will be mine again.But right now, there aren't many things I am allowed to do– especially until I figure out one very important part of the puzzle. Even though she had to change her name from Ashley to Hazel in order to hide from me– and I totally get that, still! What was the reason for getting an idiot as her fiancé?I mean, yeah…! It's a really good way to get a boost for my ego that the man who claims to be her fiancé, also says that I am his idol. And most people in my position wouldn't even be complaining. But then again, when it comes to her, there is no ego… in fact, when it comes to her, I am willing to surrender my whole self, let alone some fragile entity known as

Ethan's POV:Every situation, escalation and circumstance that has occurred till now, I have found it to be a tolerable extent. Only because until a few moments ago, I hadn't yet seen Mike pulling her in his arms while she was in her senses, and she let him do that too! This scene punches me several times in my guts, and I suddenly feel like puking out of my anxiety. I mean, how can she go to him? Doesn't she belong to me, just like I belonged to her…Or is she really on a mission to extract her sweet revenge from me, because of what I did in the past? Without caring about how bitter this pill is to swallow. Maybe, she is putting up with all this for me to feel the pain she might have felt, the day I have rushed back to hug Emily… moments after she saved me while putting her own life in danger. And trust me, I'm feeling it right in my heart, tearing me apart with every breath that I'm taking. I will keep burning in this fire until I tell the truth with my own eyes. She has to know

Ethan's POV:“Sir! It's your sixth call in the last two hours, and no, she isn't here yet. As I said before, I will definitely inform you about it. In fact, it will be the first thing I do after she arrives, but the doctor has asked you to rest. Please understand, the whole staff cares about your health and we want you back in the office, happy and healthy, really soon.”Maria finally retorts directly at me in a warm scolding tone, wrapped in the sweetness of care, while telling me that the whole office staff does care a lot for my health.I bet they do!After all, they are smart enough to know that they won't find a high paying job in this city, anywhere apart from here.And if they really cared for me and wished for my happiness, then shouldn't they know by this time, that my happiness lies in Ashley and Ashley alone?They would have seen my health as well as my mood, becoming completely perfect the moment she returned to the office. Looks like none of it is going to happen today;

Ashley's POV:The incident of the elevator would have left me shaken up completely, if I hadn't already been terrified because of Ethan. Yes! Ethan has left me terrified like hell! Because the look he was giving me, back when we were in the elevator alone, was not the one by which I have been fooled in the past, assuming that he loves me to the core. Rather, they were the same eyes with whom I have seen him looking at Emily, the day he left me in the fire and rushed towards her. That was the moment I knew, all those feelings, all those emotions, actions, words, beliefs and affirmations… everything was just the creative imaginings of my mind, and nothing else.And there was no doubt in my mind back then, because he had never given me that look… those eyes… For the brief period that we were together, I have felt my heart clench in my chest many a times. I have felt it missing a beat or randomly jumping several beats at once, all thanks to the looks he used to give to me… but none of

Ethan's POV:“Oh! Are you sure there is no chance you can make it to the meeting? Like even ten percent?”I inquire with a hundred percent real concern in my voice, because there is no way I am going to tolerate this frog showing up at the last minute, and ruining the best time of my life.Like he hasn't wasted the last twenty days already! “I am so sorry, Mr. Johnson, if it wasn't important, I would have never said no to you. You know how you are my idol, and I would never willingly miss a chance to go to a business meeting with you. There is so much for me to learn from you… but I really can't make it tomorrow.Don't worry about Hazel though, she will definitely come. In fact, I will send her number to you, so that you two can directly coordinate with each other for tomorrow–”“Perfect!”I say, without letting him complete the epic about how much he really admires me and how he is really upset about not being able to make up for the client meeting.Everything that I could ever hav

Ashley's POV:Ethan's voice shakes me to my core.I feel a wave of electricity current running down the length of my spine, the moment I hear his voice and realize that the person on the other side is none other Ethan… the love of my life and the father of my son, for whom I have never been anything more than just a medium to get his ex, his first love back in his life.And this is exactly the reason why I am unable to understand, why is he trying to get closer to me once again? Or for that matter, trying to expose my reality in front of himself… or maybe he wants the entire world to be a spectator, I don't know.I don't know what he still wants to get from me now, when he has already gotten what he always wanted.“Ethan!”The word slips out of my tongue before I could have controlled it, and even though it is almost as low as a whisper, he hears it clearly enough.He replies to my call, as quickly as I have recognised the disaster. “Yes! Ash! It is me, your Ethan—”“There is nothing

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
