We don't have much time.” He said as he grabbed his hair brush from the vanity.Catherine packed her make-up kits inside her make-up bag and stood up from the chair, she turned around to face Ace and
Ace sat down on the bed beside Catherine and took her hand that has all sorts of wire fixed on it in his hand and sniffed in.“I'm sorry, Butterfly.” He whispered. He should have cut out the bullshits and had Chelsey walked out of the restaurant, but for some time he thought that it was cute seeing Catherine stand up for herself.He had no idea that Chelsey would go to the extent of physically harming her, he never thought of the possibility of such thing happening.The door was gently pulled opened and a nurse walked in. She smiled at Ace and walked around to Catherine's side of the bed. "Good afternoon, Mr Hampton."she greeted him."Good morning, Nurse. " Ace responded calmly. It has been more than 6 hours and Catherine was yet to wake up. It scared him a lot.The nurse checked the drip connected to Catherine's body and checked her body temperature then write it down on her chart.."She will wake up very soon. Don't worry." The nurse told him.He truly hope so.After the nurse left
"What happened?" Catherine asked and took the phone from Anitra."Police reject the bail of Chelsey Black." She read out loud and chuckled. "This is mother's handwork."Ace took her hand in his and let out a deep breath. "She deserves whatever Mom will throw her way, she shouldn't have touched you at all.""That is by the way, are you both leaving already?" Anitra questioned and Ace hummed. "We're done for the day." He replied.*****It has been two weeks since Ace and Catherine returned to London and resume college, a lot of things had happened within the two weeks and one if them was that Chelsey Black was fined £100,000 for physically assaulting Catherine Meyers Hampton. Catherine and Ace were done with their classes for the day and we're going to the parking lot, the security team following them at the back. As soon as they got to the parking lot she got a phone call from her Mother."Hello, Mom?" "Hi, Catherine. How are you?" Mrs Meyers asked. Catherine got inside the car and
Ace was laying down on the bed pressing his phone. He had a zoom meeting with his mother and some employees a few minutes ago and he was just intending to get out of the bed.The bedroom door was pulled open and Catherine walked in. She was wearing a black short and a white camisole, her hip length golden hair was packed up in a high ponytail and her face free of make up.“You done with the meeting, Babe?” She whispered asked as she walk into the room. Ace's mouth lifted in a small smile as he tapped his side of the bed for her to sit on.Catherine chuckled at his gesture and slowly walked up to him, she slipped her feet out if her slippers and climbed on the bed. She placed her hand on his chest and stared inside her phone. "How was the meeting?" She inquired curiously.Ace slowly caress her back as she talk to him. The best leisure for him is hearing her talk. Her voice sounds like music to his ear and her touch set his body aflame. The kind of attraction he felt for her was totall

Catherine's POV:I fixed my shoes and grabbed my bag from the bed, I walked towards the door and took a deep breath, my uncle was transfered to New York last week and I got transferred to Riverside high school too, my first day in school and I was already getting anxious.I closed my eyes and inhale then exhaled harshly.You can do this Cat, you can do it.I opened my eyes and unlocked the door, standing in front of my door was aunt Vivian, my uncle's wife. She glared at me and stepped away from my reach.She never liked me,and to be honest I never liked her either.Maybe at some point I did loved her but as time passes when I got a glimpse of the real her I hated myself for liking her."What are you staring at? It is 8:10am, your first day in school and you're late!" She yelled at me her hand swinging towards me. I started running down the stairs, I jumped the stairs and quickly rushed to the door."You better come back immediately after school, you have to braid my hair." I heard he
Catherine's POV:I watch in horror as he tightened his hand around my neck. Is he going to kill me?The thought alone made me claw on his hand harder. The psycho smirked and brought his other hand to my cheek, he caressed my cheek with the back of his hand and trial it down to my collarbone before they landed on my chest.My eyes widened and I continued to struggle from him.Knowing for the fact that I cant rescue myself if I continue to tug on his hand, I resorted to the only solution that I have.I bite hard on his hand. He let me go immediately and my back hits the wall, I gasped, trying to inhale as much air as I could."Don't you ever bite on my hand, kitten. This will serve as a warning, the next time you try it there will be a punishment." He said while I watched him.Punish me? Who the hell is he to punish me."I….I need to find Talia." I said and quickly stood up from the ground, I dusted the back of my cloth and started walking away when I heard him speak again."It was nic
Catherine's POV:I stood before my locker, bringing out my games wear since I joined a club. In Riverside High School it is compulsory to join one or two community since it brings the students together.So today will be my first time running in Riverside High School, in my formal school I won the Huston summer trophy with my team mates.I grabbed the games wear and closed my locker, I turned around to go to the restroom and change when I saw Ace and Liam walking towards my direction.My heart started beating erratically. Since that day we haven't run into each other and seeing him again sends chill down my spine.What do I do….what do I do?Before I could think of a way to escape him, he stood before me. The hallway became ghostly silent, I looked at my left and then my right but the students were just watching to know what will happen."Kitten," he purred, "Are you not happy to see me? Huh?" He brought up his hand and touched my cheek then squeezed it harshly, my face burned with us

Catherine took a deep breath and composed herself before looking up at Ace."Baby." She whispered and stood up from the couch, he walked up to her and pulled her towards his chest, wrapping his arms around her protectively.He kissed her hair and caressed her back slowly. "Is Mom back? Did something happen? Why were you sitting like that?" He inquired." No, I was just feeling a little bit down when you walked in . It's nothing serious." Catherine responded calmly. She gazed up at him and smiled. " How was your day?" "Great, did you have a great time with your mother?" He asked. While they both started walking towards the staircase."Yes, she apologized as expected of her, what about you?" She inquired."Since we will be going back to college tomorrow I thought about spending sometime with them." Ace responded softly, Catherine nodded her head and intertwined their hands."Mother said that she wants us with her during dinner, but first you need to wash up." She told him and winked. "
"I can't believe you Mom, you took such a huge step and you couldn't even tell me about it. What did you take me for? You didn't think about my safety. What if he comes after me without my knowledge? What if Mrs Hampton really didn't find out what you did. What if, Mom?" Catherine questioned angrily when she visited her mother the next day.She was beyond pissed off, Alex is a psychopath he is the kind of person to go to any lengths in achieving their aim, someone who caused the death of his brother and then take custody of the daughter for more than four years before carrying out his plan, someone with such patience and calculative method can do anything, he is sick!"I wanted to tell you about it sweetheart. I just didn't think of telling you immediately, you just got married. I didn't want to spoil your mood. I'm truly sorry baby girl. I don't think of you as a child that shouldn't know about something like this, especially something that can cause you a lot of harm. It wasn't int
After a while in her mother's house, Catherine called Ace to come and pick her up but I told her that his driver will come and pick her up because he would be going somewhere with his mother. After a while Mike arrived to pick her up and she ordered him to take her to Talia's place so that she can go and show Mr Scott gratitude for what he did for her at her wedding. "I wasn't able to congratulate you for your marriage yesterday because there were lots of people." Mike said and glanced at Catherine through the mirror. "Congratulations on your wedding..... Mrs Catherine. Sorry, I don't know if I can use 'Mrs Hampton' for you."Catherine laughed softly, her hand covering her mouth. "It's okay, Mike. Thank you for your kind words and you can call me, Catherine. I don't mind."Mike nodded his head and the journey continued silently.When they got to Talia's house the gate was pulled open and Mike drove in. Mike came down and opened the car door for Catherine.

Catherine and Ace got out of the black Lamborghini after driving inside her mother's compound. She glanced up at the mini mansion in front of her and she couldn't help but smile."Let's go." Ace said, he intertwined their hands and led her towards the front door. When they got inside Mrs Meyers was sitting down on a couch, watching a news station on the TV."Mom." Catherine called, Mrs Meyers raised her head up and her face lit up in a smile, she was hoping to go to the Hamptons mansion later in the day with her gift but good enough they came around instead."I was planning to come to the mansion later." Mrs Meyers said as she stood up from the couch, she kissed Catherine's cheek and hugged her son in-law."Ace insisted that we come this morning," Catherine replied and rolled her eyes playfully at him, " How are you doing? I couldn't see you yesterday since we both retired to the bedroom early." When they went inside the house the other night they both took their shower and slept off
