Ashley was glad about that, she really wanted to do things to win his heart and let him love her the most. Not because of the inheritance, but because she wanted to secure a space in the family.She was treated as if she didn't belong there, her step siblings didn't even like her.

It was yet another morning and when Ashley woke up, she realized that she had slept in Mr Manchester's bedroom. Later during the previous night, she had returned to check on his health and Ashley decided to stay with him for a while. She didn't expect to fall asleep while sitting near him.Ashley stood up and left the bedroom quietly. Hector had always complained that Mr Manchester barely slept at night. But she noticed that he didn't even wake up while he was asleep.Did his keeping of late night have to do with him being alone in the bedroom?

And when she decided to stay with him, he successfully fell asleep until that moment.Ashley returned back to her bedroom, she stretched her back on her way there. She had slept in a wrong position overnight and it affected her badly. Ashley reached her bedroom, and just as she placed her hand on the knob in order to open the door, she heard someone call out her name.

"Ashley!."A vicious voice resounded in the kitchen. The whole room was filled with a haze of smoke while the air smelled of burnt lunch."Ashley….”She called a second time. Ashley was deeply asleep despite the incoming danger. Tired, was too weak a word to describe how she felt right now.

The doctor keeps saying she will be fine, there wasn't any need to panic."Shit!...."The nurse cursed. She had just cut Ashley's flesh by mistake.

It was a mistake, please forgive me.""I told you not to make any mistake."His deep voice brought the nurse down to her feet pleading for forgiveness."Look. She's bleeding you imbecile."A small amount of blood stained the white bed sheet. He lifted his hands to hit the nurse on he face when suddenly his hands stopped mid air slowly dropping to his side.The nurse who had shielded her face with her hands waited for his slap, since she did not feel anything, she stared at him following his eyes to Ashley's moving hands and eyes."She twigged her finger."He pointed at Ashley's moving fingers.
