It's Liam's uncle's birthday already, and Ashley could finally see why Liam and his sibling had been telling her that she would deal with more craziness than she could handle.

His family sure had a way of lightening her mood, though. She had gotten a message from her father the day before, and it had put her in a bad mood.

Her father was straight to the point, as always.

"I need you to get married to that Abott boy as soon as you can. Why are you wasting my time? Stop playing family with his family and get him to marry you. You don't want your father's business to suffer, right? Especially since I took you in when no one else would. This is the least you could do for me." Richard sent it to her yesterday after some of Liam's family arrived.

    Liam has been in his head for the past few days, and he would admit that he has been miserable. He has been so hyper-aware of Ashley every time he is close to her that he can't even deny it anymore. He has been trying to deny it, but he can't anymore, at least not to himself.He doesn't even know how he was going to survive the whole fake relationship thing with her, and he was already regretting bringing it up in the first place.She had him tied around her fingers, and she doesn't even know what she was doing to him, which made things worse for Liam. The little things she does, like tucking her hair behind her ears when they get in the way, biting her lips when she is nervous, or licking her lips when she is focused on something,.Those things kept driving him crazy, and he has blue balls because of it. Liam was ashamed of it, but he has had to jerk off because of it twice already.Sleeping besid

    CHAPTER 37Ashley has been avoiding her father since she and Liam arrived back in New York about four days ago. Leaving for Carlifonia was bittersweet for Ashley, as she had integrated herself well with the family and bonded with them.They had even included her in the family chat after they left, surprising both her and Liam. She couldn't help but feel emotional when she saw that. They made her feel included and seen, unlike her family.She has not spoken to Liam since then, though, because even though she told him that she was not mad at him for kissing Rachel, she still couldn't help but think about it, and it hurts every time.She wasn't exactly lying when she told him that she wasn't angry. She wasn't angry because she didn't have any right to be because he was not truly hers.

She heard a voice call to her with an unsure voice, and she look

  • Billionaire's Heart   CHAPTER 38 - His cheating ex

    CHAPTER 38Liam has picked up his phone more than 100 times to call or text Ashley, but he couldn't bring himself to follow through. He would admit that he has been lagging behind with work because all he has been thinking about is Ashley.It didn't help that he had not been able to find a replacement for Ethan. He had told Ethan about his promotion when he came back from Carlifonia, and to say that Ethan was happy was an understatement.It was bittersweet for Liam, though, because even though he was happy that Ethan was finally getting the recognition that he deserved, he was sad because he was losing a damn good semester.Liam had been prepared for this and even hired a new personal assistant before Ethan left. The mistake he made, though, was not interviewing them herself. Blake had been the one to interview the candidates, and for some reason, Blake chose a dumb bimbo who thinks she could get away with being incompetent as long as she could flash her boobs in front of Liam's face.

Blake whispered to Liam, whose leg was shaking, as he waited for Ashley to walk down the aisle towards her."Shut up, man." Liam said he was not ready to have that conversation."Come on, tell me."
