Chapter Twenty One ASHLEY'S POV"You have just five hours more to solve these problems" I saw Anita sitting right on the chair I sit in in the office. I was stranded as she looks at me with a frown on her face. I got angry, wondering what gave her the audacity to sit on my chair. I should fire her. What insolence! The nerve!"Get up on my seat, Anita. That seat is mine." I said trying to move it was when I realized what was happening. Looking down at my body, I was putting on my hospital gown. I swallowed. No, this can't happen to me. Why the hell was I stranded? Why? What had happened to me? I raised my head just to see Anita again. This time she had a smile on her lips. She was happy. "No!" I yelled. "Get up, Anita.." I shouted but she laughed hysterically. "What do you think? It's over for you, Ashley. You have finally been kicked out of your company. What you worked hard for has become mine. I will enjoy them till they last." She said and laughed uncontrollably at me. This ti

Chapter Twenty TwoASHLEY'S POVThe nurse left after checking my vitals. She replastered the drip again and I felt like cursing but I won't let her suspect a thing. Even when she asked why it was removed, I told her it wasn't my fault that I wanted to drink some water. The stupid nurse believed the lie I told her and she was even smiling at me. Fool! As soon as the door was closed, I began to curse out. I don't like this at all. How was I supposed to get this drip out again? No, I don't want to feel the pain again. Instead, I grabbed the scissors that were on the trolley I saw close to the bed. I cut the drip instead and I was free. But the solution in that drip bag poured right on the floor. I moved away immediately and went ahead to peep through the hole again. It was clear. I attempted to twist the knob but I remembered that I was a famous person. A celebrity. Those stupid reporters would make it the headline news by tomorrow. Crazy people. I shut the door locked and checked thro

Chapter Twenty ThreeASHLEY'S POV"I want you to take me to him, Chasse. I want to see him." I demanded but he doesn't even look at me. He was furious. I know. This was all my fault. If I hadn't gone to his house, he wouldn't have been in this position. I shouldn't have gone to his in the first place and now my mom sent him to jail where Lucas's men would torture him. Yes! Lucas has his men in jail because he had been bailed several times for committing a lot of atrocities but was taken out of jail by his mother. Those bastards!"No, I am not allowing you to go near him. Your mother caused him trouble. She sent him to prison even though he saved your life. But what did he get in return?" Parkinson said dipping his hands in his pocket. "I demand you take me to him now," I asked because I do not know the exact police station where he was sent to. Parkinson shot me a death glare. I frowned. "You know what? Just get back to the hospital. You are not even okay yet." He said and looked d

Chapter Twenty FourASHLEY'S POV Immediately those three words escaped my mouth, he pushed my hands away and shifted back. I knew this would happen. I have already prepared so much for this. "Let's get married," I repeated waiting for another reaction from him. The fact that he only smiled but the smile disappeared was so disturbing. "You don't know what you are saying. Just get out!" He muttered. "No. I won't. I want you to marry me, an Aryan. It's for the best for us all. I promise." I told him. "You are out of your mind." He told me and he was saying the truth. I was out of my mind. Out of my mind.For him!"You have to understand me, Aryan. I am doing this for both of us. I will bail you out in exchange for this." I told him hoping he would understand. Then he smirked. "Do you even know what marriage is? Do you have an idea that we are going to be committed to each other throughout our lives?" He asked and I knew what he was talking about. Marriage is all about love and commi

Chapter Twenty FiveARYAN's POV I watched as tears rolled out of her eyes. At one point, I don't even know what to do anymore. She kept insisting I should get married to her but it seemed that she just want to use me to save her company and reputation. It's for the best but the marriage was all about love, unity, and commitment. I don't think I have dreamt of marrying someone I don't love. Maybe mere infatuation. It's not love and it is not infatuation either. "I know you won't say yes to this easily. I need to save my company, and my reputation. The dating scandal between us. I am sure the company's profit would have dropped by another twenty percent. All because of you. I am still trying so hard to hold on but you are making this hard for me. You are making me lose hope." She said and I knew what she was saying. Anytime soon, the company would go bankrupt and its existence would be no more. " I am scared I would have to give up the company for Anita. I would lose everything I hav

Chapter Twenty-SixARYAN"What?" Parkinson gasped. "She asked you to marry her? So what did you say?"He added. I raised my head to look at h. I know he was shocked but it was too exaggerated. I sighed deeply. "I said I will marry her. What did you think? If I don't she will press more charges and I would have to pay those damages. Including ugh!" I shut my eyes. "What were you thinking?""What do you mean what was I thinking? I just need to agree. She cried for me to accept the deal. It was all a deal anyways. And we would be divorcing soon." I told him. "You don't know what you are getting yourself into, Aryan. You are going to be committed to her all your life. C'mon, what were you thinking? Call her and disagree." "What?" I said. "No, I can't do that. It was all a deal and with this, I can become successful too." "I pity you, my friend. The Macarsons are deadly. Especially, Sylvia, Ashley's mother. She would not even accept you for her daughter." "Really. I don't care. I am

Chapter Twenty SevenASHLEY'S POVWrapping a towel around my body, I heard a knock on the bathroom door. Who could that be? I couldn't help but ask myself. It was becoming louder. I walked to the door and opened it just to find Lucas smiling devilishly at me. "W...what are you doing here?" I asked thinking he had already gone. "My love." Lucas smiled and entered. "What do you want and stop calling me your love? It's annoying. Hey out." I said bravely. He hadn't learned his lessons yet. I knew he was here to force himself on me again and I will never let that happen whether he likes it or not. "You are my love and what you said right there was not true right?" He asked. I faked a smile and walked past him into my room. I was alert and my eyes searched for something I could use to chase him away. He was still healing with the plaster on his forehead. Then I saw a glass vase in the right corner of where I was staying. I went straight to it and used my back to cover it. I folded my a

Chapter Twenty Eight ASHLEY'S POVThree days later,*At Ten am*"Breaking news, Ashley Marcason announces her marriage plans as she releases pictures of her and her fiancee" I smiled as I put on my dress ready to go back to the office I heard the good news that everything was back to normal at the office. That the models in vogue are ready to model for our magazine next. It was such good news. It's been the past two days, I was busy with Aryan taking pictures for our pre-wedding photoshoot. During these times, I couldn't help but stare at Aryan. He was so gentle with me that I almost mistake his gentleness for another thing but I was wrong when told me his condition. Which includes us not having sex throughout our married life and I agreed to it. It was the best thing I could do at that moment. Of course, it was all a contract marriage. We have to know our limits and our boundaries so we won't get on each other's bad sides. It wasn't easy though. Getting married to someone you do
