That Monday morning Ashley prepared for work and had to put on the best outfit. One of the clothes Alex bought for her. She wore a very nice fragrance with a beautiful pair of shoes. She tried to take a picture of herself before leaving and sent it to Alex. He was very happy and proud of her when he saw that the clothes were so fitted and so he sent a love message to her that would sustain her for the day. She read it over and over again and beaming with smiles before leaving the house.The taxi dropped her off. Ashley walked to the company and Clara shouted because she was dumbfounded. "Wow" Funny enough, she didn't know when she made that statement. Ashley greeted her and walked to her office. Her fragrance was all over the place. Clara knew Ashley had a great fashion sense but she had never seen her in such an outfit. It showed that Ashley had a lot of clothes in her wardrobe. She started admiring Ashley and decided that the next time she'll be paid her salary she will have to
The day came for Ashley to travel back but she was so surprised that Alex sent his driver to come and pick her up so she won't stress herself at all about going through the journey. It was a day she looked forward to and so she needed a comfortable and smooth trip. She entered the car and the driver turned on the ignition. She had a very smooth ride and then she arrived at Alex's apartment. He welcomed her with a lot of different dishes. "You're welcome once again to my humble abode""Thank you very much. Were you the one that cooked all of these?""Yes, I did. I'm a very good cook" "So that means you don't have anyone cooking for you?""Not at all. Since my ex-girlfriend left, I've been the one cooking by myself"."Wow that's interesting. I need to taste it" "Of course, you can and you will be very surprised that I cook better than you" The two lovers laughed in unison as they ate the food."And I was very impressed it had a very good taste. You're a very good cook I must confes
George informed Gregory about what was going on and he told him that he saw Ashley with Alex Gregory was very surprised at what he told him but then he was informed that he had to kidnap Alex. He didn't know the reason why he had to do that but he did not question him else he would feel something was going on and pretended that he didn't know the whereabouts of his daughter.But he had to ask George how come his daughter was still around the city. George knew how much Gregory hated his daughter because of that one mistake she made but then it was none of his business. "I don't know how your daughter arrived but all I know is that I have Alex in my custody" "So what do you think we should do about it? Do you intend getting him arrested or just keeping him like that? "What do you think, let me hear your own suggestion because I don't really know as I have nothing to do with Alex" "The fact that I've already disowned my daughter and of course, he has nothing to do with her. I don't

CHAPTER 123 Ashley walked and struggled with the keys to her hotel room but was finally able to open the door and she walked in slumping tiredly on the bed. She had an exhausting day and needed a good massage at that moment. She reluctantly stood up from the bed making her way to the phone to order something from their kitchen because she was starving and could barely carry herself. "Finally you're back." She paused in shock staring at George who had a sly smile on his face. "How did he get in here?" She muttered under her breath. Ashley was dumbfounded and still in shock not knowing what to say to him. "I ordered dinner." He pointed towards the table where he had placed the takeouts which were probably from the hotel. "What are you doing here? How did you find this place?" She asked in shock. "How did you even know I came back to this city? "I'm here for you." He smiled wickedly at her which was creepy and nerve-racking. Nothing about his smile could ever calm her down i
"Are you okay?" Tracy asked with a worried tone in her voice. "Answer her." He nodded at Ashley's phone behind her silently waiting for her to do so while folding his arms across his broad chest. "Hello? Are you there Ashley?" Tracy called out again but she remained silent still contemplating what to do. She couldn't possibly bring herself to tell her what was happening because the phone was in front of him. "I'm fine…. I'll call you back," Ashley told her immediately and ended the call, looking away from George who was glaring at her. "So what is your answer?" He turned away from her sitting on the bed like he owned it. "You of all people should know nothing would ever happen between us." She gritted her teeth and if it were possible she would have loved to dig her nails into his throat. "What makes you think I would accept that?" He jerked his head toward her furrowing his brows. "Whether you accept it or not is none of my business." "Oh really?" He laughed making her mo
The loud ringing of Ashley's phone snapped her out of her sleep making her startled. She grumpily picked up her ringing phone not bothering to check the caller Id, and received the call placing the phone on her ear. "Hello?" She yawned slowly, stretching her body. "Why the hell weren't you picking up your calls?" Tracy scolded from the other end of the phone, Ashley could see the frown and concern etched in her face as she held her phone to her ear. Her voice sounded off as if she had been crying and reluctantly called her. "I'm sorry," She mumbled still trying to get sleep from her eyes. "Are you okay?" "What?" She snuff her nose trying to hide the fact that she had cried, what could have caused it? "I'm asking if you're fine, you don't sound alright." "I don't know how to tell you this." She burst out crying making Ashley jump to her feet in fear, what the hell was going on? What did she want to tell her and why was she crying? "They- they found him Ashley." "Found who-"
Ashley stared in shock trying to process what she just heard and saw. There's no way, right? "That's a lie, it can't be him," She yelled at no one in particular, She was losing her mind at this moment and nothing else mattered to her. How could she possibly live without the man who owned her heart? The father of her child. "He can't die so easily! He still has a lot to account to me." "Ashley calm down." Tracy held her in her arms pulling her in for a hug hoping to calm her down but she was going crazy, at this moment nothing could calm her down. The state of his body kept replaying in her head and she couldn't help but continue to cry."Please be calm although the situation calls for it, you also need to consider your child." Susan finally spoke despite the chaos. Her face held a deep-seated rage that she tried hard not to show and her eyes were already wet from the tears she had cleaned but still had evidence of it."You are right. My child, that's the only thing that links m
